  1. Cost-utility analysis of EML4-ALK fusion testing followed by treatment with crizotinib in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

    Objective NSCLC is the most common type of lung cancer and accounts for about 85% of all lung cancers. Currently a majority of patients with NSCLC are treated with surgical resection and/or cytotoxic drugs. Chemotherapy has resulted in a modest increase (median survival of 8 months with …

  4. Elucidating the Target and Selectivity of a Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Toxin

    Selective toxicity among cancer cells of the same lineage is a hallmark of targeted therapies, and so identifying compounds that impair proliferation selectively is an important strategy in drug development. Here, we report the discovery of the quinazoline dione compound (QDC), a molecule that …

  5. Investigation of the Biological Effects of Rosemary (Rosmarinus Officinalis L.) Extract in Human Lung Cancer Cells

    Cancer cells display enhanced growth rates and a resistance to apoptosis. Lung cancer accounts for the most cancer related deaths and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) represents an aggressive form of lung cancer, accounting for almost 80% of all lung cancer cases. The phytochemical rosemary …

    Traditional DNA-targeted anticancer agents, such as platinum-based therapies, have been a mainstay in the treatment of aggressive solid malignancies in the clinical setting. Unfortunately, due to multifactorial drug resistance and systemic toxicity the clinical efficacy of these drugs is severely …

    Mutations in STK11/LKB1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are associated with poor patient responses to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) for unknown reasons. We found that introduction of a Stk11/Lkb1 (L) mutation into murine lung adenocarcinomas driven by mutant Kras and Trp53 (KP) resulted in …

    <p>Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer related death in the United States and worldwide. It has been shown that 30%-55% of patients with early stages of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) developed and died of recurrence after curative resection, suggesting that tumor cell dissemination …
