1 Clinical outcome with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced nonsquamous EGFR wild-type non-small-cell lung cancer segregated according to KRAS mutation status. Platinum KRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase Homo sapiens
2 BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that KRAS mutations function as a marker of poor sensitivity to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced nonsquamous EGFR wild-type (WT) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Platinum KRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: KRAS mutation appears to negatively affect sensitivity to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced nonsquamous EGFR WT NSCLC. Platinum KRAS proto-oncogene, GTPase Homo sapiens
