Journal ArticleDOI
MEDIASTinal staging of non-small cell lung cancer by endobronchial and endoscopic ultrasonography with or without additional surgical mediastinoscopy (MEDIASTrial): study protocol of a multicenter randomised controlled trial

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that omitting mediastinoscopy after negative endosonography in mediastinal staging of NSCLC does not result in an unacceptable percentage of unforeseen N2 disease at surgical resection, and may be associated with lower morbidity and comparable survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation between multidisciplinary tumor boards in clinical staging and treatment recommendations for patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer

TL;DR: This study demonstrated high variation in staging and treatment of patients with stage IIIA NSCLC among MDTs in different hospitals, and suggested that some variation may be unavoidable in these challenging patients and should strive for more uniformity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Guideline adherence of mediastinal staging of non-small cell lung cancer: A multicentre retrospective analysis.

TL;DR: Although adherence to the European NSCLC mediastinal staging guideline on initial use of endosonography was good, 30% of endOSonography procedures were performed insufficiently and unforeseen N2 rates following staging by endos onography with or without confirmatory mediastinoscopy were comparable.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A significant increase was observed in the use of CCRT for patients with stage III NSCLC with rates of early toxicity and mortality being unchanged, and approximately half of the patients were still considered unfit for a RIT after publication of the PACIFIC trial.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lung adenocarcinomas: a novel KRAS/EGFR exon 21 double mutation with limited response to TKI treatment and two rare EGFR exon 19 deletions with variable response
TL;DR: The winners of the 2016 European Under-21 Championship in Liechtenstein were Alexander JJ Smits, Niels JM Claessens, Franz M Schramel and J Alain Kummer.
