Article Synopsis
- LKB1 is a tumor suppressor gene linked to cell growth and metabolism, but isn’t commonly tested for therapy guidance; this study evaluated its expression as a potential biomarker in advanced NSCLC.*
-
- The study analyzed data from 110 patients with advanced lung cancer undergoing specific treatments, finding that 66.3% had LKB1 loss, which was linked to non-smoking status and an absence of wood smoke exposure.*
-
- Results showed that patients with LKB1 loss had significantly poorer progression-free and overall survival rates; the findings suggest a need for future studies to better understand LKB1's role in treatment outcomes.*
