Chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer: the experience of the Lung Cancer Cooperative Group of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer.
The Lung Cancer Cooperative Group of the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer was founded in 1981. During the past 15 years, the group has participated in the development of treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with chemotherapy. The group performed standard phase II studies of new drugs and phase III studies with new and active drugs. Furthermore, the group performed studies combining chemotherapy with treatment for localized disease.
