TL;DR: Prior administration of 153Sm-EDTMP does not cause additional toxicities for subsequent treatment with docetaxel and does not reduce the antitumor efficacy of the latter, which justifies further investigations on the possible synergistic effects of combined strategies with the two agents.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a home therapy with oral doxifluridine in elderly NSCLC patients is feasible and well tolerated and should encourage further studies.

TL;DR: This work supports the theory that the optimal dose of BTcP opioids depends on the dose of basal opioids and identifies novel values that are possibly useful for future trials.
