pubmed:abstractText |
Cisplatin and etoposide combination chemotherapy is the most commonly used regimen for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is an agent with little intrinsic activity against NSCLC: However, there is increasing evidence that 5-FU is synergistic with cisplatin and vice versa. In an effort to improve on the traditional chemotherapeutic approach to NSCLC, a treatment regimen consisting of cisplatin, 5-FU, and etoposide (PFE) was developed.
