    In AEGEAN, perioperative durvalumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy, versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone, significantly improved event-free survival and pathological complete response (primary endpoints; modified ITT [mITT] population, which excluded patients with known EGFR/ALK aberrations) with a manageable safety profile in patients with resectable (R)-NSCLC. Here, we report surgical outcomes from AEGEAN.

    • Surgical outcomes from AEGEAN (neoadjuvant durvalumab + chemo for NSCLC) now @JTOonline from @t_mitsudomi. Same rate of surgery for both arms (81%) with higher R0 resection rates with durvalumab (95% vs 91%) and no diff in time to adjuvant treatment. https://t.co/YK2kZhgqY3

    Lung cancer (LC) incidence and mortality have changed significantly over the past few decades, yet the disease remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. LC ranks first in incidence and mortality among men and second among women. In 2022, the estimated global age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR, per 105) was 32.1 for men and 16.2 for women, while age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR, per 105) was 24.8 for men and 9.8 for women. The highest incidence and mortality rates were reported in Turkey among men (ASIR: 68.0 and ASMR: 66.3) and in Hungary (ASIR: 35.0 and ASMR: 28.9) among women [1].

    • Global trends in lung cancer reported @LungCaJournal. Notable for general increase in lung cancer incidence and mortality in women, esp France (incidence) and Norway (mortality). Increases noted in some countries despite decrease in tobacco use (Japan). https://t.co/NreGJrKXRk

    Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) is a type of primary lung adenocarcinoma characterized by tumor cells that exhibit a goblet or columnar cell morphology and contain large amounts of intracytoplasmic mucin. IMA is a relatively rare tumor, accounting for 3-10% of lung adenocarcinomas 1 2 3. Approximately 55% of cases occur in females 3, and there is a tendency for the disease to be more common in non-smokers or light smokers 4 .

    • Genomic landscape of resected invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma @ClinicalLung (n=107). KRAS mutations common - in 70.1% of cases - with NRG1 fusions identified in 9.2% of cases. Best identified with RNA seq. https://t.co/1kpVjA9md7
