Surgical Strategy of NSCLC Patients After Neo-adjuvant or Induction Treatment

Recruiting now

Conditions studied: Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, Surgery

In brief

Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide and has the highest mortality rate among malignant tumors. In recent years, with the gradual development of therapeutic modalities such as targeted therapy and immunotherapy, the overall survival of lung cancer patients has improved significantly. However, late tumor staging at the time of diagnosis often leaves patients with only pneumonectomy, which affects the prognosis with a higher rate of postoperative complications than lobectomy, poorer quality of life and the possible loss of the opportunity to continue adjuvant therapy. Our group proposes to conduct this single-arm prospective clinical study to investigate the feasibility, safety and prognosis of the conversion from pneumonectomy to lobectomy after neoadjuvant or induction therapy in patients with operable non-small cell lung cancer.
