Mashup Score: 28Quantifying the Value of Multigene Testing in Resected Early Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma - 2 day(s) ago
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), each requiring testing for precision biomarkers, have recently been approved in the adjuvant setting. We assessed the potential value of multigene testing in early lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD).

Mashup Score: 19Clinical utility of circulating tumor DNA in patients with advanced KRASG12C-mutated non-small cell lung cancer treated with sotorasib. - 5 day(s) ago
For patients with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC who are treated with sotorasib, there is a lack of biomarkers to guide treatment decisions. We therefore investigated the clinical utility of pre-treatment and on-treatment circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), as well as treatment-emergent alterations upon disease progression.

Lung cancer screening using low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) carefully implemented has been found to reduce deaths from lung cancer. Optimal management starts with selection of eligibility criteria, counseling of screenees, smoking cessation, selection of the regimen of screening which specifies the imaging protocol, and workup of LDCT findings. Coordination of clinical, radiologic, and interventional teams and ultimately treatment of diagnosed lung cancers under screening determine the benefit of LDCT screening.

Mashup Score: 65Postoperative Radiation Therapy for Thymic Carcinoma: An Analysis of the ITMIG/ESTS Database - 9 day(s) ago
R0 resection and radiation therapy have been associated with improved OS in thymic carcinoma (TC) patients. Here we analyzed which subgroups of patients derive the greatest benefit from postoperative radiation therapy (PORT).

Mashup Score: 9Lung Cancer in Syria - 10 day(s) ago
Syria is a low-income country located on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean Sea basin in the Middle East. The area of Syria is 185,180 km2 (Fig. 1).1 It consists of 14 governorates, and its capital is Damascus (Fig. 2). For the past 12 years, Syria has been experiencing conflict and economic crisis that have made the health system in general and cancer management in particular in a difficult situation.2

Mashup Score: 13
The goal of surgical resection is to completely remove a cancer; it is useful to have a system to describe how well this was accomplished. This is captured by the residual tumor (R) classification, which is separate from the TNM classification that describes the anatomic extent of a cancer independent of treatment. The traditional R-classification designates as R0 a complete resection, as R1 a macroscopically complete resection but with microscopic tumor at the surgical margin, and as R2 a resection that leaves gross tumor behind.

This paper represents a comprehensive review of evidence regarding R categories & the descriptors thereof. W/the same overall framework & descriptors in the 9th edition, refinements to the descriptors should facilitate application & further research.https://t.co/Pqc8zM7djK #IASLC https://t.co/M8MHFkSSq3
