最近的经验表明，正如已经报道的其他类型的癌症，循环肿瘤细胞（CTC）也可能在非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）中发挥作用，用于诊断，治疗监测和预后目的。CTC评价在这种临床环境中可能特别相关，不仅因为获得肿瘤组织的客观困难，而且因为缺乏可靠的肿瘤标志物。在当前的综述中，我们将重点关注CTCs在非小细胞肺癌患者中的可能应用。(C)2016爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司版权所有。
Recent experiences indicate that, as already reported for other types of cancer, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) may play a role also in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for diagnosis, therapy monitoring and prognostic purposes. CTCs evaluation could be particularly relevant in this clinical setting not only for the objective difficulty in obtaining tumor tissue, but also because of the lack of reliable tumor markers. In the current review, we Will focus on the possible applications of CTCs in NSCLC patients. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
