Therefore, distinction between SCLC NSCLC still particular importance. Currently, great interest focused on identification specific therapeutic targets, especially inhibition epidermal growth factor ruptur (EGFR). Today, malignant can also be classified molecular pathology. Subgroups with different prognoses identified gene expression profiling. levels several genes are associated sensitivity against certain anti-cancer agents.
