“…For tumour size, FDG PET features, and DCE-CT imaging parameters, no survival differences were observed. This is in contradiction to other research showing the prognostic value of tumour volume [32,33] and FDG PET [34]. It has to be noted though, that the studied group of patients is possibly too small and too heterogeneous to show survival differences based on these features.…”

“…We do not expect that this approach is suitable for all patients; patient selection is essential and treatment should be adapted for every patient. Patients with non-hypoxic tumours have generally a better prognosis [34][35][36][37][38] and probably do not need an aggressive treatment as presented. Based on pretreatment hypoxia and FDG PET/CT scans it can be decided to boost hypoxic or FDG subvolumes, or a combination.…”

“…En effet, chez certains patients porteurs d'un cancer du poumon non à petites cellules à un stade avancé, le GTN améliore l'effet d'une chimiothérapie de première ligne (telle que vinorelbine/ cisplatine) [38]. Cet essai clinique pivot a conforté la réalisation d'un essai de phase III réalisé chez le même type de patients mais pour lesquels la combinaison du GTN avec le carboplatine n'avait toutefois pas démontré d'effet bénéfique [40]. Un autre essai clinique de phase II, mené également chez ce même type de patients, n'a cependant pas permis de mettre en évidence un effet bénéfique du GTN lorsqu'utilisé en conjonction avec une chimiothérapie de première ligne constituée de carboplatine/paclitaxel/bevacizumab [41].…”
