Changes in CEC counts after chemotherapy reflect tumor response in advanced NSCLC patients. Moreover, high percentage changes in CEC counts after chemotherapy may predict longer OS in advanced NSCLC. High baseline CEC levels might be an indicator of tumor response in advanced NSCLC patients after first-line chemotherapy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
