Stage I (“stage 1”):Cancer is in your lung tissues but not your lymph nodes. Stage II (“stage 2”):The disease may have spread to your lymph nodes near your lungs. Stage III (“stage 3”):It has spread further into your lymph nodes and the middle of your chest. Stage IV (“...
Unfortunately, there is no effective screening procedure for this disease, and the majority of patients (70%) present with disease that is too advanced to consider curative surgical treatment (3) . With an overall cure rate of 14%, more than 80% of nonsmall-cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) ...
Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains a treatable but incurable disease. A MEDLINE search was performed to identify pertinent peer-reviewed articles that addressed the questions posed for this section. The writing committee developed and graded recommendations, which were subsequently appr...
EP: 4.It’s Not a Small World for Small Cell Lung Cancer Treatment Isabel Preeshagul, DO, MBS; Catherine Ann Shu, MD; and Ashish Saxena, MD, PhD, highlight results with immunotherapy in the neoadjuvant and stage IV setting in lung cancer that were presented at the 2021 World Conference...
The stage of cancer is a measure of the extent to which cancer has spread in the body. Staging involves the evaluation of cancer's size and its penetration into surrounding tissue as well as the presence or absence of metastases in the lymph nodes or other organs. Staging is important for...

Stage T4 non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) includes an heterogeneous group of locally advanced tumors. Results of surgery alone and of chemo and/or radiotherapy are disappointing with 5-year survival rates under 10%. Although palliative chemo-radiotherapy is the treatment of choice in most cases...
Combined treatment of nonsmall cell lung cancer NSCLC stage III with intensity-modulated RT radiotherapy and cetuximab: the NEAR trial. BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to evaluate efficacy and toxicity of radioimmunotherapy with intensity-modulated radiation (IMRT) and cetuximab in sta... AD ...
The five-year survival rate for lung cancer patients responding to immunotherapy is in the range of 30%, compared to 5% without immunotherapy, making long-term control possible even in patients with stage 4 cancers. This translates to longer survival and good quality of life....
