K-ras mutation appears in about 60% of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This freqLency and its presence in normal appearing tissues point to the potential of ras oncogene mutation to serve as a good biomarker. Using enriched PCR (EPCR), which enables the detection of one mutant alle
## Abstract Our previous study showed a characteristic p53 mutational spectrum in lung tumors from lung cancer patients in the Western Pennsylvania region. To further understand the involvement of p53 mutations in lung tumor development, in this study we compared p53 mutational spectra and distribu
In 407 patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), 61 pretreatment variables were evaluated in a Cox multiple regression analysis to assess their prognostic value. All patients received short-term intensive regimens (cyclophosphamide, etoposide and methotrexate or ifosfamide and etoposide, both fol
