Clinicopathologic characteristics of patients with nonsmall cell lung carcinoma with elevated serum progastrin‐releasing peptide levels

BACKGROUND Progastrin‐releasing peptide (proGRP) is a specific tumor marker in patients with small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). It has been reported that serum proGRP levels rarely are elevated in patients with nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC); the reported frequency is
