Research Abstract

We conducted a basic study in non-small cell lung cancer for the purpose of using positron emission tomography (PET) as a predictive marker for the effects of mTOR inhibitors. From the results, we were able to clarify the relationship between mTOR inhibitors and the accumulation of 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose used in PET as well as the potential of PTEN as a factor determining the sensitivity to mTOR inhibitors.
