However, cisplatin and pemetrexed demonstrated a superior survival in patients with adenocarcinoma and large cell histologies and inferior survival in patients with squamous histology, and after this trial, the use of pemetrexed was restricted to patients with nonsquamous histology.AUTHOR'S DISCLOSURES OF POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTERESTFlashback Foreword: Cisplatin/Pemetrexed in Non–Small-Cell Lung CancerThe following represents disclosure information provided by the author of this manuscript.
