Two phase III trials have shown that prolonging chemotherapy duration improves outcome in patients with nonsquamous non-small-cell lung cancer. Pemetrexed versus placebo, and pemetrexed-bevacizumab versus bevacizumab was tested in patients without disease progression after pemetrexed-cisplatin treatment. Biomarker-directed chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy could further improve treatment outcomes for patients with lung cancer.
