Cancer Genomics Centre researchers Frank Grosveld and Sjaak Philipsen have used genome-wide expression analysis to define sets of predictor genes for non-small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC). These gene signatures are promising tools for histo-pathological classification of NSCLC and may improve the prediction of clinical outcome.
Lung cancer is the most frequent cause of cancer deaths in North America and Europe and non-small cell lung cancers account for almost 80% of all lung cancers.
