Article Synopsis
- This study aims to present the first graded prognostic assessment (GPA) for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and to examine the impact of PD-L1 on survival rates in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), while also updating the existing Lung GPA based on new findings.
- The analysis was conducted on a large group of 4,183 lung cancer patients with brain metastases, identifying key prognostic factors that influence survival across different types of lung cancer.
- Results indicated varying median survival rates based on the type of lung cancer and GPA, with significant findings showing that PD-L1 expression is a predictive factor for survival, particularly in lung adenocarcinoma patients.
