Abstract excerpt
Polymorphisms in ERCC1, XPD, and XRCC1 were examined for (a) association with the clinical outcome of 107 non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving front-line platinum-based chemotherapy, and (b) correlation with the ERCC1 mRNA levels of 176 chemo-naive primary tumors. The ERCC1-C8092 allele and the number of ERCC1 polymorphic variants (C8092A and Asn118Asn) were associated with progression-free survival. In...
