BAC - General Information & Epidemiology
Epidemiology
of Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma Over the Past Two Decades: Analysis of
the SEER Database (PubMed)
Abstract of a study published in the August 2004 issue of Lung
Cancer that describes the incidence, demographics,
and overall survival of BAC patients as compared to other NSCLC types
over the past two decades (1979-1998). [8/04]
BAC
Study - You Can Participate! (Harvard School of Public
Health)
Research study to investigate the nature and cause of bronchioloalveolar
carcinoma (BAC) with the aim of developing prevention measures and more
effective treatments for this rare type of lung cancer. If you have been
diagnosed with BAC or adenocarcinoma with "BAC features," you
may be eligible to participate. A detailed description of the study is
available online.

Treatment of BAC
Bronchioloalveolar
Carcinoma (PubMed)
Abstract of a study published in the June 15, 2004 issue of Clinical
Cancer Research that reviews recent incidence and treatment data
in bronchioloalveolar carcinoma (BAC). Presents clinical data and preliminary
study results to suggest that BAC provides a useful model for studying
predictive markers of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition.
