## BACKGROUND. In vitro studies have shown an antiproliferative effect of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) against various nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cell lines. However, clinical trials of combined interleukin-2 and TNF-β£ in patients with advanced NSCLC have demonstrated both conflicting and
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. Nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases usually receive wholeβbrain radiotherapy (WBRT). Most of these patients survive for only a few months. A short course of WBRT would be preferable to longer regimens if it could provide similar survival. Thi
Tumour angiogenesis is an important factor for tumour growth and metastasis. Although some recent reports suggest that microvessel counts in non-small cell lung cancer are related to a poor disease outcome, the results were not conclusive and were not compared with other molecular prognostic markers
