      Objectives: A prerequisite for utilizing the tumour, lymph-nodes, and metastases (TNM) for the staging of lung cancer patients is a high quality of the reported data on which the staging is based. The aim of this study was to investigate the concordance between the clinical, cTNM and the pathology, pTNM staging for lung cancer, version 8 as reported to the Cancer Registry of Norway (CRN).<p> < ...
    • Machine learning-based immune phenotypes correlate with STK11/KEAP1 co-mutations and prognosis in resectable NSCLC: a sub-study of the TNM-I trial

      Background - We aim to implement an immune cell score model in routine clinical practice for resected non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (NCT03299478). Molecular and genomic features associated with immune phenotypes in NSCLC have not been explored in detail.<p> <p>Patients and methods - We developed a machine learning (ML)-based model to classify tumors into one of three categories: ...

      Bakgrunn. Epidermal vekstfaktorreseptor (EGFR) tyrosinkinasehemmere (EGFR-TKI) er en relativt ny klasse legemidler til behandling av ikke-småcellet lungekreft. Den nasjonale faggruppen for lungekreft, Norsk Lunge Cancer Gruppe, anbefaler at pasienter med ikke-småcellet lungekreft testes for mutasjoner i EGFRgenet. Vi rapporterer her erfaringene som er gjort etter at slik testing ble innført i ...
