Lung cancer is a highly aggressive neoplasm with 85% mortality. To identify new tumor-associated genes, we compared the expression profile of a primary metastasizing adenocarcinoma with normal airway epithelial cells. Two cDNA libraries of up-and downregulated genes were generated, comprising 253 an
Upon workup, the vast majority of non-small cell lung cancer patients are unresectable. Classically these patients undergo external beam radiation alone to 6,000 cGy which results in a disappointing 8.9 month median survival and high local failure rate. To enhance response, radiation dose was escala
