Biological Factors Predicting Response to Chemotherapy in Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

Summary

The primary aim of the study is to identify a predictive molecular signature for response to chemotherapy, according to WHO criteria, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer by studying the transcriptome (miRNAs and mRNAs) and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) by using high throughput techniques.
