Adjuvant Paclitaxel Plus Carboplatin Compared With Observation in Stage IB Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: CALGB 9633 With the Cancer and Leukemia Group B, Radiation Therapy Oncology Group, and North Central Cancer Treatment Group Study Groups

TL;DR: A statistically significant survival advantage for patients who had tumors > or = 4 cm supports consideration of adjuvant paclitaxel/carboplatin for stage IB patients who have large tumors, and CALGB 9633 was underpowered to detect small but clinically meaningful improvements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interventional pulmonary procedures: Guidelines from the American College of Chest Physicians.

TL;DR: These guidelines could be used as a guide to hospital nursing, respiratory therapy and administrative departments who wish to develop these services and dedicated operators who display competency in these individual procedures should have less difficulty overcoming the barriers that sometimes exist within local hospital credentialing committees.

Randomized Clinical Trial of adjuvant chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin following resection in Stage IB Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): Report of Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) Protocol 9633

TL;DR: Adjuvant chemotherapy significantly reduces all-cause and lung cancer mortality in stage IB NSCLC and is the first randomized trial to demonstrate significantly improved survival for a carboplatin-based adjuvant chemotherapy regimen in a uniform population withNSCLC.
