A review of the role of dopamine receptors and novel therapeutic strategies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
Lung cancer is a very aggressive and most deadly cancer in both men and women. Lung cancer is divided into two types of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). NSCLC is divided into 3 subgroups: adenocarcinoma (AC), squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) and large cell carcinoma (LCC).

The goal of radiation therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is to improve the survival rate of patients without increasing treatment-related toxicity and to improve patients' quality of life. Several prospective randomized trials have demonstrated a survival advantage in combined modality treatment over radiotherapy or chemotherapy alone when a cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimen is u...
متن کاملphase ii study of gemcitabine and cisplatin regimen in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc).

متن کاملNon-small-cell lung cancer: targeted therapies
Chemotherapy: is it still enough? The major progresses in understanding cancer biology and the mechanism of oncogenesis have allowed the development of several potential molecular target drugs for cancer treatment, which are components of signaling pathways or metabolic processes contributing to the acquisition of cancer phenotype. A general better tolerability, owing to a milder toxicity profi...
متن کاملEGFR mutation testing in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Lung carcinoma is subdivided into small cell carcinoma and non-small cell carcinoma (NSCLC). NSCLC is heterogeneous group of carcinomas and accounts for 70-80% of lung cancer. NSCLC is further divided into adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. Activating somatic mutations of the tyrosine kinase domain of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) have recently been cha...
