Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Elevated DNA-repair capacity has been related to chemoresistance of platinum doublet chemotherapy in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We evaluated whether single nucleotide polymorphisms of DN- repair genes excision repair cross-complementing group 1 (ERCC1), ERCC2, x-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1), XRCC3, and RRM1 associate with treatment outcome in NSCLC patients receiving...
