Abstract excerpt
We investigated the correlation of p53 abnormalities with survival in 85 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had undergone resection with curative intent as part of Lung Cancer Study Group (LCSG) 871. Our previous studies showed that only a subset of p53 mutations in lung cancers...
