Journal ArticleDOI

Erlotinib versus standard chemotherapy as first-line treatment for European patients with advanced EGFR mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (EURTAC): a multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 3 trial.

TL;DR: Erlotinib has been shown to improve progression-free survival compared with chemotherapy when given as first-line treatment for Asian patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with activating EGFR mutations as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemness features in circulating tumor cells from breast cancer patients

TL;DR: The detection of cells in mesenchymal transition, retaining EMT and stemness features, may contribute to discover additional therapeutic targets useful to eradicate micrometastatic disease in breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monitoring PD-L1 positive circulating tumor cells in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with the PD-1 inhibitor Nivolumab

TL;DR: The persistence of PD-L1(+) CTCs might mirror a mechanism of therapy escape, and patients could be dichotomized into two groups based PD- L1 expression on C TCs, which suggests that the persistence ofPD-L2 negative CTCS all obtained a clinical benefit, while patients with PD-CTCs all experienced progressive disease.
