Résumé

The survival benefit associated with first-line chemotherapy in advanced lung cancer led to the need for second-line chemotherapy. Docetaxel (Taxotere) has proven efficacy in both settings. This study evaluated the safety and efficacy of two doses of docetaxel in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer who had failed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.
