This study analyzed all metastatic categories of the current tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) classification of non-small cell lung cancer to propose modifications of the M component in the next edition (9th) of the classification.

There has been increasing interest in the risk of lung cancer related to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We investigated the association between RA and the risk of lung cancer with consideration of key confounding factors, including RA serostatus and smoking status.

A study investigates the association between rheumatoid arthritis & the risk of #lungcancer w/consideration of key confounding factors, incl. RA serostatus & smoking status. Pts w/RA showed increased risk of lung cancer compared to the group w/o RA. https://t.co/wSDS5gwetk #LCSM https://t.co/iQHxBuohl8

The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) collaborated with the International Mesothelioma Interest Group to propose the first tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) stage classification system for diffuse pleural mesothelioma in 1995, accepted by the Union for International Cancer Control and the American Joint Committee on Cancer for the 6th and 7th edition stage classification manuals. The IASLC Staging and Prognostic Factors Committee Mesothelioma Domain developed and analyzed an international registry of patients with pleural mesothelioma and updated TNM descriptors for the 8th edition of the stage classification system.

Four separate manuscripts on T, N, M, & stage groupings submitted to JTO summarize analyses of this data & will serve as the primary source of the proposed changes to the upcoming 9th edition of the pleural mesothelioma stage classification system. https://t.co/6p2YT606ie #LCSM https://t.co/CBCFnkQVHw

Mashup Score: 12Current and Future Perspectives on CT Screening for Lung Cancer: A Road Map for 2023-2027 from the IASLC - 3 month(s) ago
Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) screening for lung cancer significantly reduces mortality from lung cancer, as demonstrated in randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses. This review is based on the ninth CT screening symposium of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) which focuses on the major themes pertinent to the successful global implementation of LDCT screening and developed a strategy to further the implementation of lung cancer screening globally.These recommendations provide a 5-year road map to advance the implementation of LDCT screening globally including: (i) establishing universal screening program quality indicators; (ii) establishing evidence-based criteria to identify individuals who have never smoked but are at high risk of developing lung cancer; (iii) develop recommendations for incidentally detected lung nodule tracking and management protocols to complement programmatic lung cancer screening; (iv) Integrate artificial intellig

Stage classification is an important underpinning of management in patients with cancer, and rests on a combination of three components: T for tumor extent, N for nodal involvement, and M for distant metastases. This article details the revision of the N and the M components of thymic epithelial tumors for the 9th edition of the TNM classification of malignant tumors proposed by the Thymic Domain of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer Staging and Prognostic Factors Committee.

Mashup Score: 12Early ctDNA dynamics and efficacy of lorlatinib in patients with treatment-naïve, advanced, ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer - 5 month(s) ago
Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has been used as a biomarker for prognostication and response to treatment. Here, we evaluate ctDNA as a potential biomarker for response to lorlatinib, a third-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor in patients with treatment-naïve, advanced, ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the ongoing phase 3 CROWN study (NCT03052608).

A lymph node map is the pillar on which accurate assignment and documentation of nodal classification stands. The International Thymic Malignancy Interest Group created the first map for thymic epithelial malignancies in conjunction with the eighth edition of the TNM classification, representing the first official TNM classification of thymic epithelial malignancies. The map was based on clinical experience and published studies, but it was largely empirical because of limited available data. Dissemination of the map and implementation of a standard thymic stage classification across the world in 2017 have provided more consistent and granular data.
