TL;DR: The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre and Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, Liverpool; University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, UK; Center for Medical Imaging, University of Groningen, Groningen; Department of Radiation Oncology, VU University Medical Center, Amsterdam, The Netherlands; and Department of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, Leicester, UK.

TL;DR: It is found that HLA LOH occurs in 40% of non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) and is associated with a high subclonal neoantigen burden, APOBEC-mediated mutagenesis, upregulation of cytolytic activity, and PD-L1 positivity.

TL;DR: Advances in treatment that have seen the introduction of a new generation of chemotherapy agents, a proven advantage to adjuvant chemotherapy after complete resection for specific stage groups, new techniques for the planning and administration of radiotherapy, and new surgical approaches to assess and reduce the risks of surgical treatment are described.

TL;DR: PCs are complex tumors which require a multidisciplinary approach and long-term follow-up, and may be considered as first-line systemic antiproliferative treatment in unresectable PCs, particularly of low-grade TC and AC.

TL;DR: Increasing preoperative neutrophil/lymphocyte ratios are associated with higher stage but remain an independent predictor of survival after complete resection for primary lung cancer and are a potential biomarker to stratify high risk of death in patients with stage I disease.
