Persistent N2 After Induction Is Not a Contraindication to Surgery for Lung Cancer

Weston G. Andrews et al.

Summary: Surgical management for potentially resectable stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is controversial. This study examined the outcomes of a well-selected surgical cohort of post-induction IIIA-N2 NSCLC patients with persistent N2 disease. The results showed that patients with persistent N2 disease experienced reasonable survival after resection, highlighting the importance of surgery as part of multimodality treatment for these patients.

Management of Stage III Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: ASCO Guideline

Megan E. Daly et al.

Summary: This article provides evidence-based recommendations for the management of patients with stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The recommendations were developed through a literature search and expert consensus, covering various aspects of evaluation, surgery, neoadjuvant and adjuvant approaches, and management of unresectable stage III NSCLC.

Gefitinib as neoadinvant therapy for resectahle stage II-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer: A phase II study

Yang Zhang et al.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant gefitinib in patients with stage II-IIIA NSCLC. The results showed that neoadjuvant therapy with gefitinib was safe and may be a viable treatment option for these patients, with potential for improved survival in those with major pathologic response.

Outcomes of salvage lung resections in advanced EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas under EGFR TKIs

Ying-Yuan Chen et al.

Summary: This study investigated the outcomes of salvage lung resections in EGFR-mutant ALAs following treatment with EGFR-TKIs. Salvage surgery showed safe intra- and postoperative results, with no significant differences in PFS or OS based on different factors. However, patients with pleural seeding before EGFR-TKI treatment had significantly poorer PFS and OS outcomes. More studies with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods are needed to further explore the benefits of salvage surgery in this population.

A Multicenter Retrospective Study on the Prognosis of Stage III Unresectable Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer With Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors Therapy

Ranpu Wu et al.

Summary: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy is the standard treatment for unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer, while Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors (TKIs) therapy benefits patients with driver-gene mutations. A retrospective study on 81 patients with mutant NSCLC showed that TKIs are a viable option for stage III unresectable patients who have achieved good clinical benefit from TKI treatment.
