Dr. Bordoni, GCS’ Director for Professional Education, said, “To have my abstract chosen among 3,700 others is a nice honor. ASCO puts on a great meeting every year and I look forward to participating once again.”
Dr. Bordoni’s abstract is titled “Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Phase-II Trial of Sequential and Concurrent Oral Bexarotene (Targretin) in Combination with Chemotherapy, in Previously Untreated Patients with Advanced NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer).” Each abstract submitted is thoroughly reviewed by the Scientific Program Committee and ASCO Leadership.
