Unlabelled: Lung cancer is a malignancy with high incidence and mortality worldwide. Previous studies have shown that the gut microbiome plays an important role in the development and progression of metabolic cancers. However, data on the characteristics of the gut microbiome with different histopathology types of lung cancer remain scant. We collected stool samples from 28 healthy people (HP) and 61 lung cancer patients. The lung cancer patients were classified into three types according to their histopathology: Atypical Adenomatous Hyperplasia/Adenocarcinoma (AAH/AIS), Minimally Invasive Adenocarcinoma (MIA), and Invasive Adenocarcinoma (IA). In addition, we employed 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to analyze the characteristics of the gut microbiome in these patients. Our analysis revealed that the categorized cancer patients had unique intestinal flora characteristics, and had lower density and flora diversity compared to healthy people. Besides, the structure of the flora families and genera was more complex, and each group presented specific pathogenic microbiota. The patients in the AAH/AIS group and HP group had relatively similar flora structure compared with the IA and MIA groups. In addition, we identified several flora markers that showed significant changes with the development of lung cancer. Lung cancer gut microbiota showed a decrease in short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) producing and anti-inflammatory bacteria compared to healthy people, while some pathogenic bacteria such as proinflammatory or tumor-promoting bacteria were more abundant in lung cancer patients. On the other hand, the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Clusters of Orthologous Group (COG) annotation demonstrated suppression of some dominant metabolism-related pathways in lung cancer. These findings provide new biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of lung cancer and lay the basis for novel targeted therapeutic strategies for the prevention and treatment of lung cancer.

Aim: Tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) represent a promising cancer biomarker. Different TILs, including CD8+, CD4+, CD3+, and FOXP3+, have been associated with clinical outcomes. However, data are lacking regarding the value of TILs for patients receiving radiation therapy (RT).

Rationale: ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1) fusion is a rare but important driver mutation in non-small cell lung cancer, which usually shows significant sensitivity to small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. With the widespread application of next-generation sequencing (NGS), more fusions and co-mutations of ROS1 have been discovered. Non-muscle myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) is a rare fusion partner of ROS1 gene as reported.

Purpose: Adaptive radiotherapy accounts for interfractional anatomic changes. We hypothesize that changes in the gross tumor volumes identified during daily scans could be analyzed using delta-radiomics to predict disease progression events. We evaluated whether an auxiliary data set could improve prediction performance.

Purpose: Although lung cancer is one of the most common malignancies, the underlying genetics regarding susceptibility remain poorly understood. We characterized the spectrum of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) germline variants within DNA damage response (DDR) genes among lung cancer cases and controls in non-Hispanic Whites (NHWs) and African Americans (AAs).
Materials And Methods: Rare, germline variants in 67 DDR genes with evidence of pathogenicity were identified using the ClinVar database.

Purpose: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) have been noted to face increased cancer incidence. Yet, the impact of concomitant renal dysfunction on acute outcomes following elective surgery for cancer remains to be elucidated.
Methods: All adult hospitalizations entailing elective resection for lung, esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, hepatic, or colon cancer were identified in the 2016-2020 National Inpatient Sample.
