Abstract
Oral gefitinib, as compared to conventional chemotherapy, has comparable effect but less toxicity as a first-line treatment in Chinese patients who have advanced NSCLC, especially in those with adenocarcinoma histology. A further phase III prospective study comparing gefitinib to standard chemotherapy to define the efficacy of gefitinib is appropriate in advanced NSCLC patients.
