Early Prediction of Nonprogression in Advanced Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer Treated With Erlotinib By Using [¹⁸F]Fluorodeoxyglucose and [¹⁸F]Fluorothymidine Positron Emission Tomography

Abstract

Early FDG-PET predicts PFS, OS, and nonprogression after 6 weeks of therapy with erlotinib in unselected, previously untreated patients with advanced NSCLC independent from EGFR mutational status.
