Evaluating transportability of overall survival estimates from US to UK populations receiving first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer: a retrospective cohort study.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to explore how the UK versus the USA compare in patient characteristics, treatment patterns and overall survival (OS) of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) initiating first-line (1L) treatment.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: Oncology treatment centres in the USA and UK.

Applying the estimand and target trial frameworks to external control analyses using observational data: a case study in the solid tumor setting.

In causal inference, the correct formulation of the scientific question of interest is a crucial step. The purpose of this study was to apply causal inference principles to external control analysis using observational data and illustrate the process to define the estimand attributes. This study compared long-term survival outcomes of a pooled set of three previously reported randomized phase 3 trials studying patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer receiving front-line chemotherapy and similar patients treated with front-line chemotherapy as part of routine clinical care.

Evaluation of US oncology electronic health record real-world data to reduce uncertainty in health technology appraisals: a retrospective cohort study.

Objectives: Examine whether data from early access to medicines in the USA can be used to inform National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) health technology assessments (HTA) in oncology.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: Oncology-based community and academic treatment centres in the USA.

Synthesis, Structure, and Thermal Properties of Volatile Group 11 Triazenides as Potential Precursors for Vapor Deposition.

Group 11 thin films are desirable as interconnects in microelectronics. Although many M-N-bonded Cu precursors have been explored for vapor deposition, there is currently a lack of suitable Ag and Au derivatives. Herein, we present monovalent Cu, Ag, and Au 1,3-di--butyltriazenides that have potential for use in vapor deposition.

Thermal atomic layer deposition of InO thin films using a homoleptic indium triazenide precursor and water.

Indium oxide (InO) is an important transparent conducting material widely used in optoelectronic applications. Herein, we study the deposition of InO by thermal atomic layer deposition (ALD) using our recently reported indium(III) triazenide precursor and HO. A temperature interval with self-limiting growth was found between ∼270 and 385 °C with a growth per cycle of ∼1.
