We sought to determine whether p53 mutations or p21 polymorphisms affect response to radiotherapy in patients with recurrent non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC).
EGFR and HER2 genomic gain in recurrent non-small cell lung cancer after surgery: impact on outcome to treatment with gefitinib and association with EGFR and KRAS mutations in a Japanese cohort.
Dramatic response to low-dose erlotinib of epidermal growth factor receptor mutation-positive recurrent non-small cell lung cancer after severe cutaneous toxicity.
EGFR and HER2 genomic gain in recurrent non-small cell lung cancer after surgery: impact on outcome to treatment with gefitinib and association with EGFR and KRAS mutations in a Japanese cohort.
In prospectively collected sera of 161 patients with recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving second-line chemotherapy, the courses of nucleosomes, cytokeratin-19 fragments (CYFRA 21-1), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), and progastrin-releasing peptide (ProGRP) were investigated and correlated with therapy response.

The possibility of a dual-specificity tyrosine-(Y)-phosphorylation-regulated kinase gene, DYRK2, predicting benefit from chemotherapy for patients with recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was investigated.

Mutation analysis of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene is an essential part of the diagnostic algorithm in patients with metastatic or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Our results demonstrated that the EGFR mutation status of MLN is a predictive marker of the response to EGFR-TKI therapy in patients with recurrent NSCLC after surgical resection.
Epidermal growth factor receptor- tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) benefit Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, and an EGFR-TKIi erlotinib, is approved for patients with recurrent NSCLC.
We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of consecutive patients with postoperative recurrent NSCLC (postoperative group) or stage IV NSCLC (stage IV group) harboring EGFR mutations who were treated with gefitinib at the Shizuoka Cancer Center between September 2002 and March 2012 to compare the effect of gefitinib on survival from treatment initiation.
Elderly patients aged 75 or older with advanced or recurrent NSCLC and EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation in exon 21) were enrolled in this prospective phase II trial.
Treatments and outcomes of advanced/recurrent non-small cell lung cancer harboring the EGFRT790M mutation: a retrospective observational study of 141 patients in Japan.
