Durvalumab for Stage III EGFR-Mutated NSCLC After Definitive Chemoradiotherapy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a multi-institutional retrospective analysis of patients with stage III EGFR-mutated NSCLC who completed concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and found that concurrent CRT with induction or consolidation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) was associated with a significantly longer median PFS.

A mathematical model of ctDNA shedding predicts tumor detection size

TL;DR: A stochastic mathematical model of tumor evolution and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) shedding is developed to determine the potential and the limitations of cancer early detection tests and can help to optimize early cancer detection approaches.

MicroRNAs in non-small cell lung cancer: Gene regulation, impact on cancer cellular processes, and therapeutic potential.

TL;DR: By illustrating the roles of miRNAs in the control of NSCLC tumorigenesis and progression, this article highlights the latest efforts in assessing miRNA‐based therapies in animal models and discusses some critical challenges in developing RNA therapeutics.

Liquid Biopsy for Cancer: Review and Implications for the Radiologist

TL;DR: The liquid biopsy is currently used clinically for therapeutic guidance when tissue acquisition is impossible or when the specimen is inadequate and is also being studied in the context of screening, diagnosis, and surveillance.

Improved diagnostic yield for lung nodules with digital tomosynthesis‐corrected navigational bronchoscopy: Initial experience with a novel adjunct

TL;DR: A retrospective review of ENB cases at an institution before and after introduction of F‐ENB to assess diagnostic yield found it inferior to that of computed tomography‐guided needle biopsy for pulmonary nodules.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: Proposals for the Revisions of the T Descriptors in the Forthcoming Eighth Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

TL;DR: Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.
