A randomized open-label phase II study evaluating antitumor activity of the survivin antisense oligonucleotide LY2181308 (LY) in combination with docetaxel (DO) for second-line treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using change in tumor size (CTS)
<b>Background:</b> Resistance to chemotherapy in progressive NSCLC is associated with overexpression of antiapoptotic proteins including survivin. Down-regulation of survivin can sensitize NSCLC to DO in vitro and in xenograft studies. On the basis of preclinical/phase I results we exami...
