Brief Summary

This study is designed to assess the effects of adding nitroglycerin (NTG) patches, delivery 25 mg NTG per 24 h, to the standard first line treatment of metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung can...

Detailed Description

Standard treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) consists of platinum-containing chemotherapy. It has been shown that the addition of bevacizumab to standard chemotherapy improves progression...
