AI Article Synopsis

  • Targeted NGS can be used to analyze mutation profiles in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma to assess their prognostic implications.
  • The study analyzed tissue from 131 patients who had their tumors completely removed, revealing a 25.2% relapse rate and varying five-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates based on cancer stage.
  • The research highlighted that RFS decreased with more co-mutations, particularly emphasizing the impact of specific mutations like and exon 19 deletions on shorter RFS in later stages.

Article Abstract

Targeted NGS, widely applied to identify driver oncogenes in advanced lung adenocarcinoma, may also be applied to resected early stage cancers. We investigated resected -mutated lung adenocarcinoma mutation profiles to evaluate prognostic impacts. Tissues from 131 patients who had complete resection of stage I-IIIA -mutated lung adenocarcinoma were analyzed by targeted NGS for 207 cancer-related genes. Recurrence free survival (RFS) was estimated according to genetic alterations using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional regression analysis. The relapse rate was 25.2% (33/131). Five-year RFS of stages IA, IB, II, and IIIA were 82%, 75%, 35%, and 0%, respectively ( < 0.001). RFS decreased with the number of co-mutations ( = 0.025). Among co-mutations, the mutation was associated with short RFS in a multivariate analysis (hazard ratio: 5.4, 95% confidence interval: 2.1-14.4; = 0.001). mutations were associated with short RFS in stage IB-IIIA ( = 0.01). RFS was shorter with exon 19 deletion (19-del) than with mutation 21-L858R in stage IB-IIIA tumors ( = 0.008). Among 19-del subtypes, pL747_P753delinS (6/56, 8.9%) had shorter RFS than pE746_A750del (39/56, 69.6%), the most frequent subtype ( = 0.004).

Introduction: Stage IV non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) with oligometastases is potentially curable by radical treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for thoracic disease, including the primary lesion and lymph node metastases, combined with local consolidative therapy (LCT) for oligometastases.

Methods: This was a multicenter Phase II trial for patients with Stage IV NSCLC with oligometastases for whom CRT for thoracic disease was feasible.

Background: In a per-protocol analysis of molecularly profiled patients with treatment-refractory, end-stage cancer discussed at the National Molecular Tumor Board (NMTB), we aimed to assess the overall survival (OS) outcome of targeted treatment compared with no targeted treatment.

Materials And Methods: Patients were prospectively included at a single oncological center. Whole exome and RNA sequencing (tumor-normal) were carried out, and cases were presented at the NMTB for discussion of targeted treatment.

Background: Complex interrelationships between the microbiota and cancer have been identified by several studies. However, despite delineating microbial composition in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), key pathogenic microbiota and their underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Methods: We performed 16S rRNA V3-V4 amplicon and transcriptome sequencing on cancerous and adjacent normal tissue samples from 30 patients with NSCLC, from which clinical characteristics and prognosis outcomes were collected.

Objective: Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) of respiratory cytology specimens is a critical technique for accurate and timely diagnosis of lung cancer. However, in China, limited familiarity with the Diff-Quik staining method and a shortage of trained cytopathologists hamper utilization of ROSE. Therefore, developing an improved deep learning model to assist clinicians in promptly and accurately evaluating Diff-Quik stained cytology samples during ROSE has important clinical value.
