Background: While Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has favorable outcomes with targeted therapy, early-stage prognosis remains influenced by pathological factors and central nervous system (CNS) recurrence. The study aimed to clarify prognostic factors in pathological stage (pStage) I EGFR mutation-positive LUAD.
Methods: Between 2015 and 2018, 2,191 pStage I LUAD cases with known EGFR status (excluding EGFR testing after recurrence) who received anatomical resection were included from multiple institutions in Japan. Univariate and multivariate analyses of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were performed.
Results: 1,073 (49.0%) cases harbored EGFR mutations, including 419 (19.1%) with 19del and 529 (24.1%) with L858R. In cases with major EGFR mutation (n = 948), multivariate analysis showed that the absence of noninvasive area (NIA) (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.778, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.174-2.692, P = .0065), pStage (IA2 vs. IA1, HR: 2.079, 95% CI: 1.129-3.827, P = .0345; IA3 vs. IA1, HR: 4.009, 95% CI: 2.088-7.696, P = .0001; IB vs. IA1, HR: 5.280, 95% CI: 2.871-9.709, P < .0001), and presence of lymphatic invasion (HR: 1.855, 95% CI: 1.103-3.119, P = .0197) were independent predictors of shorter DFS, and only advanced pStage was an independent predictor of CNS recurrence (relative risk for pStage IA3 or more: 9.729, P < .0001).
Conclusion: In EGFR mutation-positive pStage I LUAD, those without NIA, with higher pStage and lymphatic invasion were independent predictive factors for DFS, and pStage ≥ IA3 was an independent predictor of CNS recurrence.

Background: Lung cancer is the deadliest disease globally, with more than 120,000 diagnosed cases and more than 75,000 deaths annually in Japan. Several treatment options for advanced lung cancer are available, and the discovery of biomarkers will be useful for personalized medicine. Using metabolome analysis, we aimed to identify biomarkers for diagnosis and treatment response by examining the changes in metabolites associated with lung cancer progression.

Background: Several head-to-head meta-analyses have compared the efficacy and safety of different first-line treatments in patients with EGFR mutation-positive (M+) advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (nsq-NSCLC). However, there is a lack of comprehensive evaluation encompassing multiple treatment strategies. Our objective is to conduct a network meta-analysis that includes various treatment modalities, enabling both direct and indirect comparisons for a more thorough assessment.

We conducted a phase 2 trial to determine the efficacy of durvalumab, tremelimumab, and platinum-pemetrexed in mutant NSCLC after progression with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).
Methods: Participants were treated with induction durvalumab, tremelimumab, and platinum-pemetrexed, followed by durvalumab-pemetrexed maintenance.

Background: Human Lung Carcinoma (LC) is among the most diagnosed cancers across the world among those non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) comprises about 85%. Next Generation Sequencing based detection of mutations are now well established in molecular oncology. With the advent of modern diagnostic methods, it is now well known that there are several mutations and gene rearrangements which are associated with the development of LC.
