Overview

In 1929, Fritz Lickint a German physican first described the association between smoking and non small cell lung cancer.[1]

Historical Perspective

  • In 1929, Fritz Lickint a German physican first described the association between smoking and non small cell lung cancer.[1]
  • In 1950, The British Doctors, a prospective cohort study was the first solid epidemiological evidence of the link between lung cancer and smoking.[2]
  • In 1966, the first preventive measures against lung cancer were implemented, warning labels first appear on cigarette packs "Caution: Cigarette Smoking May Be Hazardous to Your Health".[3]
  • In 1986, the association between second-hand smoking and non small cell lung cancer is established.[4]
  • In 1987, researchers first establish that a receptor on cancer cells called the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in the growth and spread of non small cell lung cancer.[5]
