Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Gemcitabine is a new active drug in the treatment of advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is validated that the response rate of the single agent gemcitabine was consistently above 20%, median survival was 34 weeks and it could improve the disease related symptoms with well toleranced toxicities by many clinical studies. This report reviews the clinical studies of gemcitabine in the patients with advanced NSCLC.
