Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Platinum-based chemotherapy is considered as the first-line treatment for nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.

The two P-type ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B have been identified to play an essential role in the transport of platinum. Their genetic polymorphisms may affect the treatment outcome and toxicity of...
