IMPACT: Imaging and Molecular Markers for Patients with Lung Cancer: Approaches with Molecular Targets, Complementary/Innovative Treatments, and Therapeutic Modalities

Abstract

The projects in this proposal specifically target several signal transduction pathways known to be critical for NSCLC p athogenesis including the EGFR pathway and the more downstream ras/raf/Mek/ERK pathway. These projects combine targeted approaches using molecular and imaging techniques to validate activity against a target and monitor response using imaging modalities specific to the receptor using either small molecules or targeted peptide approaches.
