Survival Among Patients with Platinum Resistant, Locally Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Treated with Platinum-Based Systemic Therapy
Annals of Surgical Oncology, 07/28/09

These data corroborate the finding of recent studies evaluating possible molecular correlates to poor response to specific chemotherapeutic agents.
