Abstract
PURPOSE There is a paucity of studies investigating cancer disparities in groups defined by ethnicity in transitioning economies. We examined the influence of ethnicity on mortality for the leading cancer types in São Paulo, Brazil, comparing patterns in the capital and the northeast of the state. METHODS Cancer deaths were obtained from a Brazilian public government database for the Barretos region (2003-2017) and the municipality of São Paulo (2001-2015). Age-standardized rates (ASR) per 100,000 persons-years, by cancer type and sex, for five self-declared racial classifications (white, black, eastern origin (Asian), mixed ethnicity (pardo), and indigenous Brazilians), were calculated using the world standard population. RESULTS Black Brazilians had higher mortality rates for most common cancer types in Barretos, whereas in São Paulo, white Brazilians had higher rates of mortality from breast, colorectal, and lung cancer. In both regions, lung cancer was the leading cause of cancer death among white, black, and pardo Brazilians, with colorectal cancer deaths leading among Asian Brazilians. Black and pardo Brazilians had higher cervical cancer mortality rates than white Brazilians. CONCLUSION There are substantial disparities in mortality from different cancers in São Paulo according to ethnicity, pointing to inequities in access to health care services.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minorities diminished returns theory posits that socioeconomic attainment conveys fewer health benefits for Black than White individuals. The current study evaluates the effects of social constructs on resection rates and survival for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Patients with potentially resectable NSCLC stage IA to IIIA were identified using the 2004 to 2017 National Cancer Database. Patients were stratified into quartiles based on population-level education and income. Logistic regression was used to predict risk-adjusted resection rates. Mortality was assessed with Cox proportional hazard modeling. RESULTS Of the 416,025 patients identified, 213,643 (51.4%) underwent resection. Among White patients, the lowest income (adjusted odds ratio 0.76, 95% confidence interval 0.74-0.78, P < .01) and education quartiles (adjusted odds ratio 0.82, 95% confidence interval 0.79-0.84, P < .01) were associated with decreased odds of resection. The lowest education quartile among Black patients was not associated with lower resection rates. The lowest income quartile (adjusted odds ratio 0.67, 95% CI 0.61-0.74, P < .01) was associated with reduced resection. White patients in the lowest education and income quartiles experienced increased hazard of 5-year mortality (adjusted hazard ratio 1.13, 95% CI 1.11-1.15, P < .01 and adjusted hazard ratio 1.08, 95% CI 1.06-1.11, P < .01 respectively). In Black patients, there were no significant differences in 5-year survival between Black patients in the highest education and income quartiles and those in the lowest quartiles. CONCLUSION Among Black patients with NSCLC, educational attainment is not associated with increased resection rates. In addition, higher education and income were not associated with improved 5-year survival. The diminished gains experienced by Black patients, compared to Whites patients, illustrate the presence of pervasive race-specific mechanisms in observed inequalities in cancer outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nomogram is a graphic representation containing the expressed factor of the mathematical formula used to define a particular phenomenon. We aim to build and internally validate a nomogram to predict overall survival (OS) in patients diagnosed with lung cancer (LC). METHODS We included 1200 LC patients from a single institution registry diagnosed from 2013 to 2021. The independent prognostic factors of LC patients were identified via cox proportional hazard regression analysis. Based on the results of multivariate cox analysis, we constructed the nomogram to predict the OS of LC patients. RESULTS We finally included a total of 1104 LC patients. Age, medical urgency at diagnosis, performance status, radiotherapy, and surgery were identified as prognostic factors, and integrated to build the nomogram. The model performance in predicting prognosis was measured by receiver operating characteristic curve. Calibration plots of 6-, 12-, and 24- months OS showed optimal agreement between observations and model predictions. CONCLUSION We have developed and validated a unique predictive tool that can offer patients with LC an individual OS prognosis. This useful prognostic model could aid doctors in making decisions and planning therapeutic trials.

Abstract
Age-period-cohort analysis involves 3 temporal factors: age (the length of time from birth to diagnosis), period (the calendar time of diagnosis), and cohort (the calendar time of birth). The application of age-period-cohort analysis in disease forecasting can help researchers and health authorities anticipate future disease burden. In this study, a synthesized age-period-cohort prediction method was proposed based on 4 assumptions: 1) no single model can dominate as the most accurate prediction model in all forecasting scenarios; 2) historical trends will not continue indefinitely; 3) a model with the most accurate forecast for the training data will also be appropriate for forecasting future data; and 4) a model dominated by the stochastic temporal change will be the best-selected model with the robust forecasting. An ensemble of age-period-cohort prediction models was constructed, and Monte Carlo cross-validation was performed to evaluate forecasting accuracy of these models. Data on lung cancer mortality from 1996 to 2015 in Taiwan were used and projected to the year 2035 to illustrate the method. The actual lung cancer mortality rates from 2016 to 2020 were then used to verify the forecasting accuracy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Particularly fine particulate matter (PM2.5) has become a significant public health concern in China due to its harmful effects on human health. This study aimed to examine the trends in all causes and cause specific morality burden attributable to PM2.5 pollution in China. METHODS We extracted data on all causes and cause specific mortality data attributable to PM2.5 exposure for the period 1990-2019 in China from the Global Burden of Disease 2019. The average annual percent change (AAPC) in age-standardized mortality rates (ASMR) and years of life lost (YLLs) due to PM2.5 exposure were calculated using the Joinpoint Regression Program. Using Pearson's correlation, we estimated association between burden trends, urban green space area, and higher education proportions. RESULTS During the period 1990-1999, there were increases in mortality rates for All causes (1.6%, 95% CI: 1.5% to 1.8%), Diabetes mellitus (5.2%, 95% CI: 4.9% to 5.5%), Encephalitis (3.1%, 95% CI: 2.6% to 3.5%), Ischemic heart disease (3.3%, 95% CI: 3% to 3.6%), and Tracheal, bronchus and lung cancer (5%, 95% CI: 4.7% to 5.2%). In the period 2010-2019, Diabetes mellitus still showed an increase in mortality rates, but at a lower rate with an AAPC of 1.2% (95% CI: 1% to 1.4%). Tracheal bronchus and lung cancer showed a smaller increase in this period, with an AAPC of 0.5% (95% CI: 0.3% to 0.6%). In terms of YLLs, the trends appear to be similar. CONCLUSION Our findings highlight increasing trends in disease burden attributable to PM2.5 in China, particularly for diabetes mellitus, tracheal, bronchus, and lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Social determinants of health thoroughly explored in the literature include insurance status, race, and ethnicity. There are over 50 million self-identifying Hispanics in the United States. This, however, represents a heterogeneous population. We used a national registry to investigate for significant differences in outcomes of Hispanic patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the Unites states, by geographic region of origin. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified a cohort of Hispanic patients in the Unites states with NSCLC for which region of origin was documented within the 2004 to 2016 National Cancer Database (NCDB) registry. This included patients from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Mexico, South and Central America, and the Dominican Republic. We performed multivariate logistic regression modeling to determine whether origin was a significant predictor of cancer staging at diagnosis, adjusting for age, sex, histology, grade, insurance status, and facility type. Race was not included due to a nonsignificant association with stage at diagnosis at the bivariate level in this cohort. Subsequently, we used Kaplan-Meier modeling to identify whether overall survival (OS) of Hispanic patients differed by origin. RESULTS A total of 12,557 Hispanic patients with NSCLC were included in this analysis. The breakdown by origin was as follows: n = 2071 (16.5%) Cuban, n = 2360 (18.8%) Puerto Rican, n = 4950 (39.4%) Mexican, n = 2329 (18.5%) from South or Central America, and n = 847 (6.7%) from the Dominican Republic. After controlling for age, sex, histology, grade, insurance status and treating facility type, we found that geographic origin was a significant predictor of advanced stage at diagnosis (P = .015). Compared to Cubans, patients of Puerto Rican origin were less likely to present with advanced disease (68.4% vs. 71.9%; OR: 0.82; 95%CI: 0.69-0.98; P = .026). We also identified a significant (log-rank P-value<.001) difference in OS by geographic origin, even at early-stages of diagnosis. Dominican patients with NSCLC exhibited the highest 5-year OS rate (63.3%), followed by patients from South/Central America (59.7%), Puerto Rico (52.3%), Mexico (45.9%), and Cuba (43.8%). CONCLUSION This study showed that for Hispanic individuals living in the Unites states, region/country of origin is significantly associated with outcomes, even after accounting for other known determinants of health. We suggest that region of origin should be studied further as a potential determinant of outcomes in patients with cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Exposure to asbestos increases the risk of lung cancer and mesothelioma. Few studies quantified the premature occurrence of these diseases in asbestos-exposed workers. Focus on premature disease onset (rate advancement or acceleration) can be useful in risk communication and for the evaluation of exposure impact. We estimated rate advancement for total mortality, lung cancer and pleural mesothelioma deaths, by classes of cumulative asbestos exposure in a pooled cohort of asbestos cement (AC) workers in Italy. METHOD The cohort study included 12 578 workers from 21 cohorts, with 6626 deaths in total, 858 deaths from lung cancer and 394 from pleural malignant neoplasm (MN). Rate advancement was estimated by fitting a competitive mortality Weibull model to the hazard of death over time since first exposure (TSFE). RESULT Acceleration time (AT) was estimated at different TSFE values. The highest level of cumulative exposure compared with the lowest, for pleural MN AT was 16.9 (95% CI 14.9 to 19.2) and 33.8 (95% CI 29.8 to 38.4) years at TSFE of 20 and 40 years, respectively. For lung cancer, it was 13.3 (95% CI 12.0 to 14.7) and 26.6 (95% CI 23.9 to 29.4) years, respectively. As for total mortality, AT was 3.35 (95% CI 2.98 to 3.71) years at 20 years TSFE, and 6.70 (95% CI 5.95 to 7.41) at 40 years TSFE. CONCLUSION The current study observed marked rate advancement after asbestos exposure for lung cancer and pleural mesothelioma, as well as for total mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients with resected, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, stage IB to IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), adjuvant osimertinib therapy, with or without previous adjuvant chemotherapy, resulted in significantly longer disease-free survival than placebo in the ADAURA trial. We report the results of the planned final analysis of overall survival. METHODS In this phase 3, double-blind trial, we randomly assigned eligible patients in a 1:1 ratio to receive osimertinib (80 mg once daily) or placebo until disease recurrence was observed, the trial regimen was completed (3 years), or a discontinuation criterion was met. The primary end point was investigator-assessed disease-free survival among patients with stage II to IIIA disease. Secondary end points included disease-free survival among patients with stage IB to IIIA disease, overall survival, and safety. RESULTS Of 682 patients who underwent randomization, 339 received osimertinib and 343 received placebo. Among patients with stage II to IIIA disease, the 5-year overall survival was 85% in the osimertinib group and 73% in the placebo group (overall hazard ratio for death, 0.49; 95.03% confidence interval [CI], 0.33 to 0.73; P<0.001). In the overall population (patients with stage IB to IIIA disease), the 5-year overall survival was 88% in the osimertinib group and 78% in the placebo group (overall hazard ratio for death, 0.49; 95.03% CI, 0.34 to 0.70; P<0.001). One new serious adverse event, pneumonia related to coronavirus disease 2019, was reported after the previously published data-cutoff date (the event was not considered by the investigator to be related to the trial regimen, and the patient fully recovered). Adjuvant osimertinib had a safety profile consistent with that in the primary analysis. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant osimertinib provided a significant overall survival benefit among patients with completely resected, EGFR-mutated, stage IB to IIIA NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most prior studies have reported cancer mortality trends across countries for specific cancer types. Herein, we examine recent patterns and trends in cancer mortality rates for the eight common forms of cancer in 47 countries across five continents (except Africa) based on the World Health Organization mortality database. METHODS Rates were age-standardized to the 1966 Segi-Doll world population, and trends in the age-standardized rates for the most recent 10 years of data were examined using Joinpoint regression. RESULTS Cancer-specific mortality rates vary substantially across countries, with rates of infection-related (cervix and stomach) and tobacco-related cancers (lung and esophagus) varying by 10-fold. Recent mortality rates for all major cancers decreased in most of the studied countries except lung cancer in females and liver cancer in males, where increasing rates were observed in most countries. Rates decreased or stabilized in all countries for lung cancer in men and stomach cancer in both sexes. CONCLUSIONS The findings reinforce the importance of implementing and strengthening resource-stratified and targeted cancer prevention and control programs in all parts of the world to further reduce or halt the rising cancer burden. IMPACT The results may inform cancer prevention and treatment strategies and in so doing, reduce the marked global cancer disparities observed today.

Abstract
On February 2, 2022, President Biden and First Lady Dr. Biden reignited the Cancer Moonshot, setting a new goal to reduce age-standardized cancer mortality rates by at least 50% over the next 25 years in the United States. We estimated trends in U.S. cancer mortality during 2000 to 2019 for all cancers and the six leading types (lung, colorectum, pancreas, breast, prostate, liver). Cancer death rates overall declined by 1.4% per year from 2000 to 2015, accelerating to 2.3% per year during 2016 to 2019, driven by strong declines in lung cancer mortality (-4.7%/year, 2014 to 2019). Recent declines in colorectal (-2.0%/year, 2010-2019) and breast cancer death rates (-1.2%/year, 2013-2019) also contributed. However, trends for other cancer types were less promising. To achieve the Moonshot goal, progress against lung, colorectal, and breast cancer deaths needs to be maintained and/or accelerated, and new strategies for prostate, liver, pancreatic, and other cancers are needed. We reviewed opportunities to prevent, detect, and treat these common cancers that could further reduce population-level cancer death rates and also reduce disparities. SIGNIFICANCE We reviewed opportunities to prevent, detect, and treat common cancers, and show that to achieve the Moonshot goal, progress against lung, colorectal, and breast cancer deaths needs to be maintained and/or accelerated, and new strategies for prostate, liver, pancreatic, and other cancers are needed.

Abstract
The CodeBreaK 200 trial showed that sotorasib led to a 34% decrease in relative risk of disease progression or death compared with docetaxel but yielded no improvement in overall survival. Despite the KRAS inhibitor's high cost, less toxicity likely tips the balance in its favor. Subgroup analyses and combination trials are underway to optimize treatment with sotorasib and other KRAS inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a well-recognized risk factor for premature death. However, evidence on which PM2.5 components are most relevant is unclear. METHODS We evaluated the associations between mortality and long-term exposure to eight PM2.5 elemental components [copper (Cu), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), sulfur (S), nickel (Ni), vanadium (V), silicon (Si), and potassium (K)]. Studied outcomes included death from diabetes, chronic kidney disease (CKD), dementia, and psychiatric disorders as well as all-natural causes, cardiovascular disease (CVD), respiratory diseases (RD), and lung cancer. We followed all residents in Denmark (aged ≥30 years) from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2017. We used European-wide land-use regression models at a 100 × 100 m scale to estimate the residential annual mean levels of exposure to PM2.5 components. The models were developed with supervised linear regression (SLR) and random forest (RF). The associations were evaluated by Cox proportional hazard models adjusting for individual- and area-level socioeconomic factors and total PM2.5 mass. RESULTS Of 3,081,244 individuals, we observed 803,373 death from natural causes during follow-up. We found significant positive associations between all-natural mortality with Si and K from both exposure modeling approaches (hazard ratios; 95% confidence intervals per interquartile range increase): SLR-Si (1.04; 1.03-1.05), RF-Si (1.01; 1.00-1.02), SLR-K (1.03; 1.02-1.04), and RF-K (1.06; 1.05-1.07). Strong associations of K and Si were detected with most causes of mortality except CKD and K, and diabetes and Si (the strongest associations for psychiatric disorders mortality). In addition, Fe was relevant for mortality from RD, lung cancer, CKD, and psychiatric disorders; Zn with mortality from CKD, RD, and lung cancer, and; Ni and V with lung cancer mortality. CONCLUSIONS We present novel results of the relevance of different PM2.5 components for different causes of death, with K and Si seeming to be most consistently associated with mortality in Denmark.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION TP53 is the most frequently mutated gene in lung tumors, but its prognostic role in admixed populations, such as Brazilians, remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the frequency and clinicopathological impact of TP53 mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Brazil. METHODS We analyzed 446 NSCLC patients from Barretos Cancer Hospital. TP53 mutational status was evaluated through targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the variants were biologically classified as disruptive/nondisruptive and as truncating/nontruncating. We also assessed genetic ancestry using 46 ancestry-informative markers. Analysis of lung adenocarcinomas from the cBioportal dataset was performed. We further examined associations of TP53 mutations with patients' clinicopathological features. RESULTS TP53 mutations were detected in 64.3% (n = 287/446) of NSCLC cases, with a prevalence of 60.4% (n = 221/366) in lung adenocarcinomas. TP53 mutations were associated with brain metastasis at diagnosis, tobacco consumption, and higher African ancestry. Disruptive and truncating mutations were associated with a younger age at diagnosis. Additionally, cBioportal dataset revealed that TP53 mutations were associated with younger age and Black skin color. Patients harboring disruptive/truncating TP53 mutations had worse overall survival than nondisruptive/nontruncating and wild-type patients. CONCLUSION TP53 mutations are common in Brazilian lung adenocarcinomas, and their biological characterization as disruptive and truncating mutations is associated with African ancestry and shorter overall survival.

Abstract
Importance The introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) has transformed the care of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although clinical trials suggest substantial survival benefits, it is unclear how outcomes have changed in clinical practice. Objective To assess temporal trends in ICI use and survival among patients with advanced NSCLC across age strata. Design, Setting, and Participants This cohort study was performed in approximately 280 predominantly community-based US cancer clinics and included patients aged 18 years or older who had stage IIIB, IIIC, or IV NSCLC diagnosed between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2019, with follow-up through December 31, 2020. Data were analyzed April 1, 2021, to October 19, 2022. Main Outcomes and Measures Median overall survival and 2-year survival probability. The predicted probability of 2-year survival was calculated using a mixed-effects logit model adjusting for demographic and clinical characteristics. Results The study sample included 53 719 patients (mean [SD] age, 68.5 [9.3] years; 28 374 men [52.8%]), the majority of whom were White individuals (36 316 [67.6%]). The overall receipt of cancer-directed therapy increased from 69.0% in 2011 to 77.2% in 2019. After the first US Food and Drug Administration approval of an ICI for NSCLC, the use of ICIs increased from 4.7% in 2015 to 45.6% in 2019 (P < .001). Use of ICIs in 2019 was similar between the youngest and oldest patients (aged <55 years, 45.2% vs aged ≥75 years, 43.8%; P = .59). From 2011 to 2018, the predicted probability of 2-year survival increased from 37.7% to 50.3% among patients younger than 55 years and from 30.6% to 36.2% in patients 75 years or older (P < .001). Similarly, median survival in patients younger than 55 years increased from 11.5 months to 16.0 months during the study period, while survival among patients 75 years or older increased from 9.1 months in 2011 to 10.2 months in 2019. Conclusions and Relevance This cohort study found that, among patients with advanced NSCLC, the uptake of ICIs after US Food and Drug Administration approval was rapid across all age groups. However, corresponding survival gains were modest, particularly in the oldest patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The increased detection of small-sized peripheral non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has renewed interest in sublobar resection in lieu of lobectomy. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, noninferiority, phase 3 trial in which patients with NSCLC clinically staged as T1aN0 (tumor size, ≤2 cm) were randomly assigned to undergo sublobar resection or lobar resection after intraoperative confirmation of node-negative disease. The primary end point was disease-free survival, defined as the time between randomization and disease recurrence or death from any cause. Secondary end points were overall survival, locoregional and systemic recurrence, and pulmonary functions. RESULTS From June 2007 through March 2017, a total of 697 patients were assigned to undergo sublobar resection (340 patients) or lobar resection (357 patients). After a median follow-up of 7 years, sublobar resection was noninferior to lobar resection for disease-free survival (hazard ratio for disease recurrence or death, 1.01; 90% confidence interval [CI], 0.83 to 1.24). In addition, overall survival after sublobar resection was similar to that after lobar resection (hazard ratio for death, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.72 to 1.26). The 5-year disease-free survival was 63.6% (95% CI, 57.9 to 68.8) after sublobar resection and 64.1% (95% CI, 58.5 to 69.0) after lobar resection. The 5-year overall survival was 80.3% (95% CI, 75.5 to 84.3) after sublobar resection and 78.9% (95% CI, 74.1 to 82.9) after lobar resection. No substantial difference was seen between the two groups in the incidence of locoregional or distant recurrence. At 6 months postoperatively, a between-group difference of 2 percentage points was measured in the median percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second, favoring the sublobar-resection group. CONCLUSIONS In patients with peripheral NSCLC with a tumor size of 2 cm or less and pathologically confirmed node-negative disease in the hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes, sublobar resection was not inferior to lobectomy with respect to disease-free survival. Overall survival was similar with the two procedures. (Funded by the National Cancer Institute and others; CALGB 140503 ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00499330.).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is one of the most common cancers with high morbidity and mortality and remains a crucial factor endangering human health. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to elucidate the potential treatment target and prognostic biomarker in patients with LUAD through a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis. METHODS The three public microarray datasets of GSE118370, GSE116959, and GSE43767 were obtained from the GEO data resource. The DEGs were explored between LUAD and non-malignant samples using GEO2R online tool in GEO data resource. GO along with KEGG analysis of DEGs were examined using WebGestalt tool. The STRING web resource was employed to develop the PPI network of DEGs, whereas Cytoscape software was employed to perform module analysis. Finally, the mRNA, protein expression along with survival analysis of hub genes were explored via GEPIA, HPA along with Kaplan-Meier plotter web resource, respectively. RESULTS Only 82 upregulated and 105 downregulated DEGs were found among the three datasets. Further, GO analysis illustrated that 187 DEGs were primary enriched in extracellular structure organization, tube development along with cell adhesion. The KEGG enrichments showed that these DEGs were primary linked to leukocyte transendothelial migration, vascular smooth muscle contraction along with ECM-receptor interaction. Among the 187 DEGs, the 10 hub genes (P4HB, SPP1, CP, GOLM1, COL1A1, MMP9, COL10A1, APOA1, COL4A6, and TIMP1) were identified. The mRNA along with protein levels of hub genes in LUAD tissues were further verified by Oncomine, UCSC Xena, GEPIA and HPA databases. Additionally, overall survival curves illustrated that LUAD patients with the higher levels of P4HB, SPP1, COL1A1, and MMP9 were dramatically linked to shorter overall survival. CONCLUSIONS The current study identified DEGs candidate genes (P4HB, SPP1, COL1A1, and MMP9) and pathways in LUAD using bioinformatics analysis, which could enhance our understanding of pathogenesis along with underlying molecular events in LUAD, and these hub genes and pathways may help provide candidate treatment targets for LUAD.

Abstract
PURPOSE Programmed death or ligand-1 (PD-(L)1) pathway inhibitors confer improved survival as the first-line treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) in patients with PD-L1 expression (PD-L1 + e ≥ 50%) compared to platinum-doublet chemotherapy and have become a standard therapy. Some recent evidence suggests that among aNSCLC patients with PD-L1 + e of ≥50% receiving pembrolizumab monotherapy, very high levels of PD-L1 + e (≥90%) may be associated with better outcomes. We sought to assess whether very high PD-L1 + e (≥90%) compared to high PD-L1 + e (50%-89%) is associated with an overall survival benefit in aNSCLC patients receiving anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapies. METHODS We conducted a single-site retrospective cohort study of aNSCLC patients who initiated PD-(L)1 inhibitor monotherapy as the first-line treatment from October 24, 2016, to August 25, 2021, and had a PD-L1 + e ≥ 50%. The primary outcome was overall survival, measured from the start of the first-line PD-(L)1 inhibitor monotherapy (index date) to date of death or last confirmed activity prior to the cohort exit date. Propensity score-based inverse probability weighting (IPW) was used to control for confounding in Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. RESULTS One hundred sixty-six patients with aNSCLC receiving PD-(L)1 inhibitor monotherapy met inclusion criteria. 54% were female, 90% received pembrolizumab, median age was 68 years, 70% had non-squamous cell carcinoma, 94% had a history of smoking, 29% had a KRAS mutation, and 37% had very high PD-L1 + e. Unweighted covariates at cohort entry were similar between groups (absolute standardized mean differences [SMDs] <0.1) except for race (SMD = 0.2); age at therapy initiation (SMD = 0.13); smoking status (SMD = 0.13), and BRAF mutation status (SMD = 0.11). After weighting, baseline covariates were well balanced (all absolute SMDs <0.1). In the weighted analysis, having a very high PD-L1 + e was associated with lower mortality (weighted hazard ratio 0.57, 95% CI 0.36-0.90) and longer median survival: 3.85 versus 1.49 years. CONCLUSIONS Very high PD-L1 + e (≥90%) was associated with an overall survival benefit over high PD-L1 + e (50%-89%) in patients receiving the first-line PD-(L)1 inhibitor monotherapy in a model controlling for potential confounders. These findings should be confirmed in a larger real-world data set.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related death in the world, however lung cancer screening has not been implemented in most countries at a population level. A previous Cochrane Review found limited evidence for the effectiveness of lung cancer screening with chest radiography (CXR) or sputum cytology in reducing lung cancer-related mortality, however there has been increasing evidence supporting screening with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT). OBJECTIVES: To determine whether screening for lung cancer using LDCT of the chest reduces lung cancer-related mortality and to evaluate the possible harms of LDCT screening. SEARCH METHODS We performed the search in collaboration with the Information Specialist of the Cochrane Lung Cancer Group and included the Cochrane Lung Cancer Group Trial Register, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL, the Cochrane Library, current issue), MEDLINE (accessed via PubMed) and Embase in our search. We also searched the clinical trial registries to identify unpublished and ongoing trials. We did not impose any restriction on language of publication. The search was performed up to 31 July 2021. SELECTION CRITERIA: Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of lung cancer screening using LDCT and reporting mortality or harm outcomes. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two review authors were involved in independently assessing trials for eligibility, extraction of trial data and characteristics, and assessing risk of bias of the included trials using the Cochrane RoB 1 tool. We assessed the certainty of evidence using GRADE. Primary outcomes were lung cancer-related mortality and harms of screening. We performed a meta-analysis, where appropriate, for all outcomes using a random-effects model. We only included trials in the analysis of mortality outcomes if they had at least 5 years of follow-up. We reported risk ratios (RRs) and hazard ratios (HRs), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and used the I2 statistic to investigate heterogeneity. MAIN RESULTS: We included 11 trials in this review with a total of 94,445 participants. Trials were conducted in Europe and the USA in people aged 40 years or older, with most trials having an entry requirement of ≥ 20 pack-year smoking history (e.g. 1 pack of cigarettes/day for 20 years or 2 packs/day for 10 years etc.). One trial included male participants only. Eight trials were phase three RCTs, with two feasibility RCTs and one pilot RCT. Seven of the included trials had no screening as a comparison, and four trials had CXR screening as a comparator. Screening frequency included annual, biennial and incrementing intervals. The duration of screening ranged from 1 year to 10 years. Mortality follow-up was from 5 years to approximately 12 years. None of the included trials were at low risk of bias across all domains. The certainty of evidence was moderate to low across different outcomes, as assessed by GRADE. In the meta-analysis of trials assessing lung cancer-related mortality, we included eight trials (91,122 participants), and there was a reduction in mortality of 21% with LDCT screening compared to control groups of no screening or CXR screening (RR 0.79, 95% CI 0.72 to 0.87; 8 trials, 91,122 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). There were probably no differences in subgroups for analyses by control type, sex, geographical region, and nodule management algorithm. Females appeared to have a larger lung cancer-related mortality benefit compared to males with LDCT screening. There was also a reduction in all-cause mortality (including lung cancer-related) of 5% (RR 0.95, 95% CI 0.91 to 0.99; 8 trials, 91,107 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Invasive tests occurred more frequently in the LDCT group (RR 2.60, 95% CI 2.41 to 2.80; 3 trials, 60,003 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). However, analysis of 60-day postoperative mortality was not significant between groups (RR 0.68, 95% CI 0.24 to 1.94; 2 trials, 409 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). False-positive results and recall rates were higher with LDCT screening compared to screening with CXR, however there was low-certainty evidence in the meta-analyses due to heterogeneity and risk of bias concerns. Estimated overdiagnosis with LDCT screening was 18%, however the 95% CI was 0 to 36% (risk difference (RD) 0.18, 95% CI -0.00 to 0.36; 5 trials, 28,656 participants; low-certainty evidence). Four trials compared different aspects of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) using various measures. Anxiety was pooled from three trials, with participants in LDCT screening reporting lower anxiety scores than in the control group (standardised mean difference (SMD) -0.43, 95% CI -0.59 to -0.27; 3 trials, 8153 participants; low-certainty evidence). There were insufficient data to comment on the impact of LDCT screening on smoking behaviour. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: The current evidence supports a reduction in lung cancer-related mortality with the use of LDCT for lung cancer screening in high-risk populations (those over the age of 40 with a significant smoking exposure). However, there are limited data on harms and further trials are required to determine participant selection and optimal frequency and duration of screening, with potential for significant overdiagnosis of lung cancer. Trials are ongoing for lung cancer screening in non-smokers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elderly patients with extensive-disease small-cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) have a high risk of chemotherapy toxicity due to multiple comorbidities and poor performance status. Although dose modification is often used to avoid toxicity in elderly patients with ED-SCLC, there is little data on the effect of initial dose-reduced chemotherapy on survival outcomes. METHODS AND PATIENTS We retrospectively reviewed 100 elderly patients with ED-SCLC who received first-line etoposide plus platinum chemotherapy between January 2006 and December 2020. RESULTS The median age was 74 years. Eighty-nine patients (89%) had a history of smoking, and 38 (38%) had chronic lung disease. Thirty-four patients (34%) received dose-reduced etoposide plus platinum in the first cycle. The dose-reduced group had significantly higher age, lower body mass index, and poor ECOG PS. There were no significant differences in survival outcomes between the dose-reduced and full-dose chemotherapy [median overall survival (OS), 4.9 vs. 6.5 months, p=0.440; median progression free survival (PFS), 3.7 vs. 4.6 months, p=0.272]. In multivariate analyses, dose reduction in the first cycle (hazard ratio 0.519, 95% CI 0.269-1.000, p=0.050) was significantly associated with OS. Following subgroup analysis of 59 patients who received minimum four cycles, no significant differences in survival outcomes between the two groups (median OS, 10.9 vs. 9.4 months, p=0.817; median PFS, 6.3 vs. 6.5 months, p=0.902) was noted. CONCLUSIONS The dose-reduced chemotherapy with first-line etoposide plus platinum had non-inferior survival outcomes compared to the full-dose chemotherapy in elderly patients with ED-SCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ADAMTS8 expression has been identified to be low in many cancers including lung cancer. However, the specific functions and regulatory system of ADAMTS8 remain to be unveiled. PURPOSE To study the potential modulatory mechanism of ADAMTS8 in lung cancer in cell and xenograft mice models. METHODS Differential expression of ADAMTS8 in lung cancer was analyzed on online tools. So was the overall survival curve in association with ADAMTS8/VEGFA expression in lung cancer patients. RT-qPCR was applied to validate the ADAMTS8 expression in lung cancer cell lines H460 and A549, with the normal lung epithelial cell Beas-2b as a control. Thereafter, overexpressed and knockdown plasmids were constructed for transfection. Colony and flow cytometry methods were used for cell proliferation and apoptosis. RT-qPCR and Western blot methods validated the changes in VEGFA after ADAMTS8 regulation in cells. Tube formation and Transwell methods were applied to observe the changes in tube formation and migration in HUVECs induced by tumor conditioned medium (TCM). Stable-transfected cells were injected subcutaneously into nude mice. H&E and Immunohistochemistry were applied to analyze the pathological differences and protein changes of ADAMTS8, VEGFA and CD31. RESULTS High ADAMTS8 was correlated with high overall survival rate in lung cancer patients. ADAMTS8 was also abnormally downregulated in NSCLC cells. Upregulation of ADAMTS8 suppressed cell proliferation and enhanced apoptosis while downregulation of ADAMTS8 promoted cell proliferation and decreased apoptosis. VEGFA was negatively correlated with ADAMTS8 in lung cancer tissues. Upregulation of ADAMTS8 inhibited VEGFA in mRNA and protein levels. Further, knockdown of ADAMTS8 induced tube formation and migration of HUVECs and upregulation of ADAMTS8 inhibited this. In addition, upregulation of ADAMTS8 in nude mice inhibited tumor growth and also suppressed VEGFA and CD31 in tumors. CONCLUSION ADAMTS8 inhibited lung cancer progression through suppressing VEGFA in lung cancer.

Abstract
Background Retrospective data demonstrates that robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery provides many benefits, such as decreased postoperative pain, lower mortality, shorter length of stay, shorter chest tube duration, and reductions in the incidence of common postoperative pulmonary complications, when compared to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Despite the potential benefits of robotic surgery, there are two major barriers against its widespread adoption in thoracic surgery: lack of high-quality prospective data, and the perceived higher cost of it. Therefore, in the face of these barriers, a prospective randomized controlled trial comparing robotic- to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery is needed. The RAVAL trial is a two-phase, international, multi-centered, blinded, parallel, randomized controlled trial that is comparing robotic- to video-assisted lobectomy for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer that has been enrolling patients since 2016. Methods The RAVAL trial will be conducted in two phases: Phase A will enroll 186 early-stage non-small cell lung cancer patients who are candidates for minimally invasive pulmonary lobectomy; while Phase B will continue to recruit until 592 patients are enrolled. After consent, participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to either robotic- or video-assisted lobectomy, and blinded to the type of surgery they are allocated to. Health-related quality of life questionnaires will be administered at baseline, postoperative day 1, weeks 3, 7, 12, months 6, 12, 18, 24, and years 3, 4, 5. The primary objective of the RAVAL trial is to determine the difference in patient-reported health-related quality of life outcomes between the robotic- and video-assisted lobectomy groups at 12 weeks. Secondary objectives include determining the differences in cost-effectiveness, and in the 5-year survival data between the two arms. The results of the primary objective will be reported once Phase A has completed accrual and the 12-month follow-ups are completed. The results of the secondary objectives will be reported once Phase B has completed accrual and the 5-year follow-ups are completed. Discussion If successfully completed, the RAVAL Trial will have studied patient-reported outcomes, cost-effectiveness, and survival of robotic- versus video-assisted lobectomy in a prospective, randomized, blinded fashion in an international setting.

Abstract
MET amplification (METamp), a mechanism of acquired resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, occurs in up to 30% of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) progressing on first-line osimertinib. Combining osimertinib with a MET inhibitor, such as tepotinib, an oral, highly selective, potent MET tyrosine kinase inhibitor, may overcome METamp-driven resistance. INSIGHT 2 (NCT03940703), an international, open-label, multicenter phase II trial, assesses tepotinib plus osimertinib in patients with advanced/metastatic EGFR-mutant NSCLC and acquired resistance to first-line osimertinib and METamp, determined centrally by fluorescence in situ hybridization (gene copy number ≥5 and/or MET/CEP7 ≥2) at time of progression. Patients will receive tepotinib 500 mg (450 mg active moiety) plus osimertinib 80 mg once-a-day. The primary end point is objective response, and secondary end points include duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival and safety. Trial registration number: NCT03940703 (clinicaltrials.gov).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are two treatment strategies for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibiting a high expression level of programmed death-ligand 1 (tumor proportion score ≥ 50%): pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy and monotherapy. We retrospectively compared their efficacy and safety. MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the efficacy and safety of first-line pembrolizumab-containing regimens administered between 2017 and 2020 to consecutive patients. The patients were divided into a pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy group (Combo group) or monotherapy group (Mono group). To compare the efficacy, we monitored the time to failure of strategy (TFS) defined as the time from the start of treatment to the occurrence of one of the following events: the addition of any drug not included in the primary strategy, progression of cancer after complete therapy, progression and no subsequent therapy, or death, whichever occurred first. We used the propensity score matching (PSM) to reduce the bias. RESULTS A total of 126 patients were identified (89 in the Mono group and 37 in the Combo group). PSM matched 36 individuals from each of the two groups. The overall response rate and median progression-free survival of the Combo group were better than those of the Mono group. However, the median TFS was almost the same (11.3 months vs. 14.9 months; hazard ratio 1.40 [95% confidence interval 0.62-3.15]). The frequency of all serious adverse effects was higher in the Combo group than in the Mono group. DISCUSSION Due to similar efficacy in TFS, both pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy and monotherapy are valid options for NSCLC.

Abstract
Progress in the overall treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) has moved at a slower pace than non-small-cell lung cancer. In fact, the standard treatment regimen for limited stage SCLC has not appreciably shifted in more than 20 years, consisting of four to six cycles of cisplatin and etoposide chemotherapy concurrent with thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) followed by prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) for responsive disease. Nevertheless, long-term outcomes have improved with median survival approaching 25-30 months, and approximately one third of patients now survive 5 years. This is likely attributable in part to improvements in staging, including use of brain magnetic resonance imaging and fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography imaging, advances in radiation treatment planning, and supportive care. The CONVERT and CALGB 30610 phase III trials failed to demonstrate a survival advantage for high-dose, once-daily TRT compared with standard 45 Gy twice-daily TRT, although high-dose, once-daily TRT remains common in practice. A phase III comparison of high-dose 60 Gy twice-daily TRT versus 45 Gy twice-daily TRT aims to confirm the provocative outcomes reported with 60 Gy twice daily in the phase II setting. Efforts over time have shifted from intensifying PCI, to attempting to reduce treatment-related neurotoxicity, to more recently questioning whether careful magnetic resonance imaging surveillance may obviate the routine need for PCI. The addition of immunotherapy has resulted in mixed success in extensive-stage SCLC with modest benefit observed with programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors, and several ongoing trials assess programmed death-ligand 1 inhibition concurrent or adjuvant to chemoradiotherapy in limited-stage SCLC. Major advances in future treatment will likely depend on a better understanding and exploiting of molecular characteristics of SCLC with increasing personalization of therapy.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains the worldwide leading cause of cancer-related death. Currently, prognostic biomarkers for the detection and stratification of lung cancer are being investigated for clinical use. The surface protein cluster of differentiation 49b (CD49b) plays an important role in promoting cell proliferation and invasion in different tumor entities and blocking CD49b improved the tumor immune response. Overexpression of CD49b has been associated with unfavorable survival rates in several malignant tumor entities, such as prostate cancer, gastric cancer and colon cancer. Therefore, we aimed to analyze the protein expression of CD49b in patients with different types of lung cancer and additionally to identify the influence of CD49b on clinicopathological characteristics and overall survival.Expression levels of CD49b were retrospective analyzed by immunohistochemistry in 92 cases of pulmonary adenocarcinoma (AC), 85 cases of squamous cell lung carcinoma (SQCLC) and 32 cases of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and correlated with clinicopathological characteristics and patients' overall survival.A strong expression of CD49b was most seen in SQCLC (78%), followed by AC (48%) and SCLC (9%). All patients combined, strong expression of CD49b correlated significantly with poorer overall survival. However, an increased expression of CD49b correlated significantly with a poorer survival rate only in SQCLC. In AC and SCLC, no significant correlation could be demonstrated in this regard.In our study, CD49b expression was associated with poor overall survival in patients with SQCLC. Accordingly, CD49b could serve as a new prognostic biomarker and, moreover, be a potential new drug target in SQCLC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness, from a US commercial payer perspective, of cemiplimab versus other first-line treatments for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with programmed death-ligand 1 expression ≥50%. METHODS A 30-year "partitioned survival" model was constructed. Overall survival and progression-free survival were estimated by applying time-varying hazard ratios from a network meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials. Overall survival and progression-free survival were estimated from EMPOWER-Lung 1 (cemiplimab monotherapy vs chemotherapy) and KEYNOTE-024 and KEYNOTE-042 (pembrolizumab monotherapy vs chemotherapy). Drug acquisition costs were based on published 2020 US list prices. A 3% discount rate was applied to life-years, quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs), and costs. A deterministic analysis was performed on the base case; 1-way sensitivity and probabilistic sensitivity analyses assessed model and parameter uncertainties. RESULTS Cemiplimab was associated with increased time in the "preprogression" (13.08 vs 7.90 and 6.08 months) and "postprogression" (47.30 vs 29.49 and 14.78 months) health states versus pembrolizumab and chemotherapy, respectively. Compared with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy, cemiplimab generated 1.00 (95% CI -0.266 to 2.440) and 1.78 (95% CI 0.607-3.20) incremental QALYs, respectively, with incremental cost-effectiveness ratios of $68 254 and $89 219 per QALY for cemiplimab versus pembrolizumab and cemiplimab versus chemotherapy, respectively. The probability of cemiplimab being cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of $100 000 to $150 000 per QALY was 62% to 76% versus pembrolizumab and 56% to 84% versus chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Findings suggest that cemiplimab, versus pembrolizumab or versus chemotherapy, is a cost-effective first-line treatment option for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with programmed death-ligand 1 expression ≥50%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A substantial proportion of patients with unresectable stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cannot either tolerate or access concurrent chemoradiotherapy, so sequential chemoradiotherapy is commonly used. We assessed the efficacy and safety of sugemalimab, an anti-PD-L1 antibody, in patients with stage III NSCLC whose disease had not progressed after concurrent or sequential chemoradiotherapy. METHODS GEMSTONE-301 is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial in patients with locally advanced, unresectable, stage III NSCLC, done at 50 hospitals or academic research centres in China. Eligible patients were aged 18 years or older with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 who had not progressed after concurrent or sequential chemoradiotherapy. We randomly assigned patients (2:1, using an interactive voice-web response system) to receive sugemalimab 1200 mg or matching placebo, intravenously every 3 weeks for up to 24 months. Stratification factors were ECOG performance status, previous chemoradiotherapy, and total radiotherapy dose. The investigators, trial coordination staff, patients, and study sponsor were masked to treatment allocation. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all participants who received at least one dose of assigned study treatment. The study has completed enrolment and the results of a preplanned analysis of the primary endpoint are reported here. The trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03728556. FINDINGS Between Aug 30, 2018 and Dec 30, 2020, we screened 564 patients of whom 381 were eligible. Study treatment was received by all patients randomly assigned to sugemalimab (n=255) and to placebo (n=126). At data cutoff (March 8, 2021), median follow-up was 14·3 months (IQR 6·4-19·4) for patients in the sugemalimab group and 13·7 months (7·1-18·4) for patients in the placebo group. Progression-free survival assessed by BICR was significantly longer with sugemalimab than with placebo (median 9·0 months [95% CI 8·1-14·1] vs 5·8 months [95% CI 4·2-6·6]; stratified hazard ratio 0·64 [95% CI 0·48-0·85], p=0·0026). Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 22 (9%) of 255 patients in the sugemalimab group versus seven (6%) of 126 patients in the placebo group, the most common being pneumonitis or immune-mediated pneumonitis (seven [3%] of 255 patients in the sugemalimab group vs one [<1%] of 126 in the placebo group). Treatment-related serious adverse events occurred in 38 (15%) patients in the sugemalimab group and 12 (10%) in the placebo group. Treatment-related deaths were reported in four (2%) of 255 patients (pneumonia in two patients, pneumonia with immune-mediated pneumonitis in one patient, and acute hepatic failure in one patient) in the sugemalimab group and none in the placebo group. INTERPRETATION Sugemalimab after definitive concurrent or sequential chemoradiotherapy could be an effective consolidation therapy for patients with stage III NSCLC whose disease has not progressed after sequential or concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Longer follow-up is needed to confirm this conclusion. FUNDING CStone Pharmaceuticals and the National Key Research and Development Program of China.

Abstract
Importance Large cohorts of patients with active cancers and COVID-19 infection are needed to provide evidence of the association of recent cancer treatment and cancer type with COVID-19 mortality. Objective To evaluate whether systemic anticancer treatments (SACTs), tumor subtypes, patient demographic characteristics (age and sex), and comorbidities are associated with COVID-19 mortality. Design, Setting, and Participants The UK Coronavirus Cancer Monitoring Project (UKCCMP) is a prospective cohort study conducted at 69 UK cancer hospitals among adult patients (≥18 years) with an active cancer and a clinical diagnosis of COVID-19. Patients registered from March 18 to August 1, 2020, were included in this analysis. Exposures SACT, tumor subtype, patient demographic characteristics (eg, age, sex, body mass index, race and ethnicity, smoking history), and comorbidities were investigated. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary end point was all-cause mortality within the primary hospitalization. Results Overall, 2515 of 2786 patients registered during the study period were included; 1464 (58%) were men; and the median (IQR) age was 72 (62-80) years. The mortality rate was 38% (966 patients). The data suggest an association between higher mortality in patients with hematological malignant neoplasms irrespective of recent SACT, particularly in those with acute leukemias or myelodysplastic syndrome (OR, 2.16; 95% CI, 1.30-3.60) and myeloma or plasmacytoma (OR, 1.53; 95% CI, 1.04-2.26). Lung cancer was also significantly associated with higher COVID-19-related mortality (OR, 1.58; 95% CI, 1.11-2.25). No association between higher mortality and receiving chemotherapy in the 4 weeks before COVID-19 diagnosis was observed after correcting for the crucial confounders of age, sex, and comorbidities. An association between lower mortality and receiving immunotherapy in the 4 weeks before COVID-19 diagnosis was observed (immunotherapy vs no cancer therapy: OR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.31-0.86). Conclusions and Relevance The findings of this study of patients with active cancer suggest that recent SACT is not associated with inferior outcomes from COVID-19 infection. This has relevance for the care of patients with cancer requiring treatment, particularly in countries experiencing an increase in COVID-19 case numbers. Important differences in outcomes among patients with hematological and lung cancers were observed.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) is a pulmonary malignant tumor with extremely low 5-year survival rate. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is confirmed to regulate diverse pathophysiological processes including cancers. Methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14) is an important RNA methyltransferase in m6A modification. However, researches on the regulatory mechanism of METTL14 on LC progression are relatively rare. Tumor xenograft experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of METTL14 on LC in vivo. The relative expression of METTL14, miR-30c-1-3p, and myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate-like protein-1 (MARCKSL1) in LC tissues and/or cell lines was determined using qRT-PCR. Western blot assay was used to measure the protein levels of METTL14 and MARCKSL1 in tumor xenograft model and/or LC cell lines. MTT, wound healing, and transwell assays were performed to detect LC cell viability and metastasis. RNA immunoprecipitation assay and qRT-PCR were used to verify the effects of METTL14 on pri-miR-30c-1-3p. The relationship between miR-30c-1-3p and MARCKSL1 was confirmed by the dual-luciferase reporter assay. METTL14 was remarkably downregulated in LC tissues and cell lines. METTL14 mediated the maturation of miR-30c-1-3p. The overexpressed METTL14 and overexpressed miR-30c-1-3p suppressed the cell viability and metastasis in LC. Meanwhile, the increased METTL14 also repressed the growth of tumor xenograft in vivo. In addition, MARCKSL1 was confirmed to be the target gene of miR-30c-1-3p. High expression of MARCKSL1 and low expression of miR-30c-1-3p reversed the suppressive effects of METTL14 overexpression on cell viability and metastasis. METTL14 promoted the maturation of miR-30c-1-3p and mediated MARCKSL1 expression to inhibit the progression of LC. This study may provide a new insight for the LC clinical therapy.

Abstract
Objectives To evaluate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of computed tomography(CT)-guided percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in medically inoperable older adults with clinical stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients and Methods We retrospectively reviewed the records of medically inoperable older adults (≥70 years) with clinical stage I NSCLC who underwent percutaneous multi-tined electrode RFA at our institution between January 2014 and December 2018. We analyzed the patients’ characteristics, therapy response, survival, as well as the procedure-related complications. Results Eighteen patients (10 men and 8 women) with a mean age of 75.9 (71−85) years were treated in during the study period. The median tumor size was 25 mm (range, 19−43 mm); 10 and 8 cases involved stage T1 and T2a disease, respectively. The median follow-up duration was 25 (11–45) months. RFA was technically successful for all 18 lesions, with no treatment-related mortality. The disease control rate was 83.3% (15/18 lesions). There were 6 cases of pneumothorax: one symptomatic case requiring thoracic drainage, and five requiring no treatment. Minor complications, including pulmonary infection, chest pain, fever, and cough, were treated within 4 days (range, 1−4 days). The progression-free survival rates were 83.3%, 64.9%, and 51.9% 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. The corresponding overall survival rates were 92.2%, 81.5%, and 54.3%, respectively. Conclusions CT-guided percutaneous RFA is safe and effective in medically inoperable patients with stage I NSCLC and could be an alternative therapeutic strategy, particularly in older adults with early-stage peripheral lung cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment outcomes of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have substantially improved with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), although only approximately 19% of patients respond to immunotherapy alone, increasing to 58% with the addition of chemotherapy. The gut microbiome has been recognized as a modulator of ICI response via its priming effect on the host immune response. Antibiotics as well as chemotherapy reduce gut microbial diversity, hence altering composition and function of the gut microbiome. Since the gut microbiome may modify ICI efficacy, we conducted a retrospective study evaluating the effects of prior antibiotic or chemotherapy use on NSCLC patient response to ICI. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 256 NSCLC patients treated between 2011-2017 at Moffitt Cancer Center with ICI ± chemotherapy, examining the associations between prior antibiotic or chemotherapy use, overall response rate and survival. Relative risk regression using a log-link with combinatorial expectation maximization algorithm was performed to analyze differences in response between patients treated with antibiotics or chemotherapy versus patients who didn't receive antibiotics or chemotherapy. Cox proportional hazards models were constructed to evaluate associations between risk factors and overall survival. RESULTS Only 46 (18% of 256) patients used antibiotics prior to and/or during ICI treatment, and 146 (57%) had prior chemotherapy. Antibiotic users were 8% more likely to have worse overall response rate (RR:1.08; CI:0.93-1.26; p = 0.321), as well as a 35% worse overall survival (HR:1.35; CI:0.91-2.02; p = 0.145), although results were not statistically significant. However, prior use of chemotherapy was significantly associated with poor ICI response (RR:1.24; CI:1.05-1.47; p = 0.013) and worse overall survival (HR:1.47; CI:1.07-2.03; p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS Patients receiving antibiotics prior to and/or during ICI therapy might experience worse treatment outcomes and survival than unexposed patients, although these associations were not statistically significant and hence warrant further prospective study. Prior chemotherapy significantly reduced ICI response and overall survival. Antibiotic or chemotherapy exposure may negatively impact ICI response, perhaps through disruption of the eubiotic gut microbiome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) and the dire prognosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma patients who received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are not known yet. METHODS We screened the articles that meet the criteria from the database. The relationship between NLR/PLR/LMR levels and the survival and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with ICIs was analyzed. Summarize hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) to study progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Thirty-four studies involving 3124 patients were enrolled in the final analysis. In short, high pre-treatment NLR was related to poor OS (HR = 2.13, 95% CI:1.74-2.61, P < .001, I2 = 83.3%, P < .001) and PFS (HR = 1.77, 95% CI:1.44-2.17, P < .001, I2 = 79.5%, P < .001). Simultaneously, high pre-treatment PLR was related to poor OS (HR = 1.49, 95% CI:1.17-1.91, P < .001, I2 = 57.6%, P = .003) and PFS (HR = 1.62, 95% CI:1.38-1.89, P < .001, I2 = 47.1%, P = .036). In all subgroup analysis, most subgroups showed that low LMR was related to poor OS (HR = 0.45, 95% CI: 0.34-0.59, P < .001) and PFS (HR = 0.60, 95% CI: 0.47-0.77, P < 0.001, I2 = 0.0%, P < .001). CONCLUSION High pre-treatment NLR and pre-treatment PLR in non-small cell lung carcinoma patients treated with ICIs are associated with low survival rates. Low pre-treatment and post-treatment LMR are also related to unsatisfactory survival outcomes. However, the significance of post-treatment NLR and post-treatment PLR deserve further prospective research to prove.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-targeted therapies have not been approved for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (formerly DS-8201), a HER2 antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with HER2-mutant NSCLC have not been investigated extensively. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, international, phase 2 study in which trastuzumab deruxtecan (6.4 mg per kilogram of body weight) was administered to patients who had metastatic HER2-mutant NSCLC that was refractory to standard treatment. The primary outcome was objective response as assessed by independent central review. Secondary outcomes included the duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Biomarkers of HER2 alterations were assessed. RESULTS A total of 91 patients were enrolled. The median duration of follow-up was 13.1 months (range, 0.7 to 29.1). Centrally confirmed objective response occurred in 55% of the patients (95% confidence interval [CI], 44 to 65). The median duration of response was 9.3 months (95% CI, 5.7 to 14.7). Median progression-free survival was 8.2 months (95% CI, 6.0 to 11.9), and median overall survival was 17.8 months (95% CI, 13.8 to 22.1). The safety profile was generally consistent with those from previous studies; grade 3 or higher drug-related adverse events occurred in 46% of patients, the most common event being neutropenia (in 19%). Adjudicated drug-related interstitial lung disease occurred in 26% of patients and resulted in death in 2 patients. Responses were observed across different HER2 mutation subtypes, as well as in patients with no detectable HER2 expression or HER2 amplification. CONCLUSIONS Trastuzumab deruxtecan showed durable anticancer activity in patients with previously treated HER2-mutant NSCLC. The safety profile included interstitial lung disease that was fatal in two cases. Observed toxic effects were generally consistent with those in previously reported studies.

Abstract
Herein, we characterize the landscape and prognostic significance of the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for patients with an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation. β Chain TCR sequencing was used to characterize the TCR repertoires of paraffin-preserved pretreatment tumor and tumor-adjacent tissues from 57 and 44 patients with stage II/III NSCLC with an EGFR mutation treated with gefitinib or chemotherapy in the ADJUVANT-CTONG 1104 trial. The TCR diversity was significantly decreased in patients with an EGFR mutation, and patients with high TCR diversity had a favorable overall survival (OS). A total of 10 TCR Vβ-Jβ rearrangements were significantly associated with OS. Patients with a higher frequency of Vβ5-6Jβ2-1, Vβ20-1Jβ2-1, Vβ24-1Jβ2-1, and Vβ29-1Jβ2-7 had significantly longer OS. Weighted combinations of the 4 TCRs were significantly associated with OS and disease-free survival (DFS) of patients, which could further stratify the high and low TCR diversity groups. Importantly, Vβ5-6Jβ2-1, Vβ20-1Jβ2-1, and Vβ24-1Jβ2-1 had a significant relationship with gefitinib treatment, while Vβ29-1Jβ2-7 was associated with chemotherapy. Four TCR Vβ-Jβ rearrangements related to favorable OS and DFS for adjuvant gefitinib and chemotherapy in patients with an EGFR mutation with stage II/III NSCLC; this may provide a novel perspective for the adjuvant setting for resectable NSCLC.

Abstract
Numerous studies have focused on whether the marital status has an impact on the prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer, but none have focused on lung adenocarcinoma.We selected 61,928 eligible cases with lung adenocarcinoma from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 2004 to 2016 and analyzed the impact of marital status on cancer-specific survival (CSS) using Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses.We confirmed that sex, age, race, cancer TNM stage and grade, therapeutic schedule, household income, and marital status were independent prognostic factors for lung adenocarcinoma CSS. Multivariate Cox regression showed that widowed patients had worse CSS (hazard ratio 1.26, 95% confidence interval 1.20-1.31, P < .001) compared with married patients. Subgroup analysis showed consistent results regardless of sex, age, cancer grade, and TNM stage. However, the trend was not significant for patients with grade IV cancer.These results suggest that marital status is first identified as an independent prognostic factor for CSS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma, with a clear association between widowhood and a high risk of cancer-specific mortality. Psychological and social support are thus important for patients with lung adenocarcinoma, especially unmarried patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are no formal guidelines for the management of patients with primary gastrointestinal (GI) cancers who have lung-exclusive or lung-predominant metastases. We performed a retrospective analysis to evaluate host and tumor characteristics of this patient population, model patterns and rates of growth, and describe treatment approaches. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eligible patients had a GI cancer with either synchronous or metachronous lung metastases but no other visceral or peritoneal sites of involvement. In addition to collecting detailed patient-specific and tumor-specific information, all imaging studies (computed tomography±positron emission tomography scans) were reviewed by an independent radiologist. Up to 5 lung metastases were tracked through each patient's clinical course. Growth rate was estimated using a linear mixed model analysis. RESULTS Forty patients met eligibility criteria (18 pancreatic, 15 colorectal, 6 hepatobiliary, 1 gastroesophageal; synchronous vs. metachronous, 13 and 27, respectively). Median time from original cancer diagnosis to onset of metachronous lung lesions was 16 months. Interval from first appearance of lung metastases to treatment initiation was 6.2 months. Average growth rate of the largest lesion was 0.21 mm/mo (95% confidence interval, 0.12-0.30), with substantial intrapatient and interpatient variability. Sixty percent of patients underwent locoregional interventions in addition to or in lieu of systemic therapy for their lung metastases. Median survival of the entire study cohort from first appearance of lung metastases was 54 months. CONCLUSIONS Lung metastases from primary GI cancers have a variable but overall indolent natural history and are generally associated with prolonged survival outcomes. Further efforts to define patterns of growth of lung metastases, informed by size, number, and clinical/molecular features, are needed to guide appropriate timing and selection of therapy as well as surveillance strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the use of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) has been controversial since 1998, because of one meta-analysis showing a deleterious effect on survival in patients with pN0 and pN1, but with an unclear effect in patients with pN2 NSCLC. Because many changes have occurred in the management of patients with NSCLC, the role of three-dimensional (3D) conformal PORT warrants further investigation in patients with stage IIIAN2 NSCLC. The aim of this study was to establish whether PORT should be part of their standard treatment. METHODS Lung ART is an open-label, randomised, phase 3, superiority trial comparing mediastinal PORT to no PORT in patients with NSCLC with complete resection, nodal exploration, and cytologically or histologically proven N2 involvement. Previous neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy was allowed. Patients aged 18 years or older, with an WHO performance status of 0-2, were recruited from 64 hospitals and cancer centres in five countries (France, UK, Germany, Switzerland, and Belgium). Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to either the PORT or no PORT (control) groups via a web randomisation system, and minimisation factors were the institution, administration of chemotherapy, number of mediastinal lymph node stations involved, histology, and use of pre-treatment PET scan. Patients received PORT at a dose of 54 Gy in 27 or 30 daily fractions, on five consecutive days a week. Three dimensional conformal radiotherapy was mandatory, and intensity-modulated radiotherapy was permitted in centres with expertise. The primary endpoint was disease-free survival, analysed by intention to treat at 3 years; patients from the PORT group who did not receive radiotherapy and patients from the control group with no follow-up were excluded from the safety analyses. This trial is now closed. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT00410683. FINDINGS Between Aug 7, 2007, and July 17, 2018, 501 patients, predominantly staged with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) PET (456 [91%]; 232 (92%) in the PORT group and 224 (90%) in the control group), were enrolled and randomly assigned to receive PORT (252 patients) or no PORT (249 patients). At the cutoff date of May 31, 2019, median follow-up was 4·8 years (IQR 2·9-7·0). 3-year disease-free survival was 47% (95% CI 40-54) with PORT versus 44% (37-51) without PORT, and the median disease-free survival was 30·5 months (95% CI 24-49) in the PORT group and 22·8 months (17-37) in the control group (hazard ratio 0·86; 95% CI 0·68-1·08; p=0·18). The most common grade 3-4 adverse events were pneumonitis (13 [5%] of 241 patients in the PORT group vs one [<1%] of 246 in the control group), lymphopenia (nine [4%] vs 0), and fatigue (six [3%] vs one [<1%]). Late-grade 3-4 cardiopulmonary toxicity was reported in 26 patients (11%) in the PORT group versus 12 (5%) in the control group. Two patients died from pneumonitis, partly related to radiotherapy and infection, and one patient died due to chemotherapy toxicity (sepsis) that was deemed to be treatment-related, all of whom were in the PORT group. INTERPRETATION Lung ART evaluated 3D conformal PORT after complete resection in patients who predominantly had been staged using (18F-FDG PET-CT and received neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy. 3-year disease-free survival was higher than expected in both groups, but PORT was not associated with an increased disease-free survival compared with no PORT. Conformal PORT cannot be recommended as the standard of care in patients with stage IIIAN2 NSCLC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to construct and validate a robust prognostic model based on liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS)-related genes in lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC). METHODS The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset was used as the discovery set to identify the LLPS-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between LUSC and normal tissue. These DEGs were screened by the LASSO Cox regression analysis to identify the genes with nonzero coefficient, which were next included in the multivariate Cox regression analysis to construct the prediction model. The dataset GSE41271 was adopted as the validation set to verify the efficacy of the model. Enrichment analysis and the CIBERSORT were performed to illustrate potential immune mechanisms underlying the prediction model. RESULTS A total of 48 LLPS-related genes were aberrantly expressed in LUSC. Among them, 7 genes were selected by the LASSO Cox regression analysis to construct the prediction model. Risk index (RI) was calculated according to the model for each patient. The prognosis was significantly different between the patients with high and low RI in the discovery set and the validation set (p < 0.001 and p = 0.028, respectively). The multivariate survival analysis confirmed RI as an independent prognostic factor in LUSC (in the discovery set: p < 0.001, HR = 2.643, 95% CI = 1.986-3.518; in the validation set: p = 0.042, HR = 2.144, 95% CI = 1.026-4.480). A series of pathways involving immune cells were found to be related to RI. The distribution pattern of immune cells and chemokines varied according to the value of RI. CONCLUSION The prediction model based on LLPS-related genes was constructed and validated as a robust prognostic tool for LUSC using multiple datasets. LLPS might have an impact on LUSC through immune pathways.

Abstract
The extremely high mortality of both lung cancer and Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a global threat. Early detection and diagnosis can reduce their mortality. Since fibrosis is a necessary process of cancer, identifying the common potential prognostic genes involved in these two diseases will significantly contribute to disease prevention and targeted therapy. Microarray datasets of IPF and lung cancer were extracted from the GEO database. GEO2R was exploited to retrieve the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The intersecting DEGs were obtained by the Venn tool. DAVID tools were used to perform GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of DEGs. Then, the Kaplan-Meier plotter was employed to determine the prognostic value and verify the expression, pathological stage, and phosphorylation level of the hub gene in the TCGA and GTEx database. Finally, the extent of immune cell infiltration in lung cancer was estimated by the TIMER2 tool. The Venn diagram revealed 1 upregulated gene and 15 downregulated genes from GSE32863, GSE43458, GSE118370, and GSE75037 of lung cancer, as well as GSE2052 and GSE53845 of IPF. CytoHubba identified the top three genes [TEK receptor tyrosine kinase (TEK), caveolin 1 (CAV1), and endomucin (EMCN)] as hub genes following the connectivity degree. Survival analysis claimed the association of only TEK and CAV1 expression to both overall survival (OS) and first progression (FP). Pathological stage analyses revealed the relationship of only CAV1 expression to the pathological stage and the significant correlation of only CAV1 phosphorylation expression level for lung cancer. Furthermore, a statistically positive correlation was observed between the immune infiltration of cancer-associated fibroblasts, endothelial, and neutrophils with the CAV1 expression in lung cancer, whereas the contradictory result was noted for the immune infiltration of T cell follicular helper. Early detection and diagnostic potential of lung cancer are ameliorated by the combined selection of key genes among IPF and lung cancer.

Abstract
We aimed to assess the prognostic and predictive significance of pretreatment Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) in extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) patients treated with first-line chemotherapy. We designed this study to evaluate the prognostic role of PNI in 147 ES-SCLC patients treated with platinum-based combination regimen between 2011 and 2018. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses and Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the effects of basal PNI on overall survival (OS). The median age of the patients was 61 (range 38-81). The cutoff value for PNI was determined for whole group and patients were dichotomized into high (≥49.17) and low (<49.17). Seventy-eight (53.1%) patients had low PNI score and 69 (46.9%) patients had high PNI score. Patients with the high PNI score had better OS than those with low PNI (13 versus 12 months, respectively, and P = 0.03). The relationship between PNI score and OS was more prominent in patients over 65 years of age (13 versus 10 months, respectively, and P = 0.03). Progression-free survival of patients with complete response to first-line treatment was statistically significantly better than the other patients (8 versus 7 months, respectively, and P = 0.02). Similarly, OS was statistically significantly better than the other patients (15 versus 8 months, respectively, and P = 0.001). The results of our study show that PNI score is useful in evaluating the OS of patients with ES-SCLC. PNI is a cost-effective prognostic marker and should therefore be included in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE It is aimed to investigate the survival outcomes and prognostic factors after curative treatment of patients diagnosed with synchronous oligometastatic non-small cell lung carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-two patients from 3 centers diagnosed between 2014 and 2019 were analyzed. The treatment results of thoracic and oligometastatic regions were retrospectively evaluated. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to determine the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) and log-rank tests for the factors affecting survival. Cox regression analysis was employed for multivariate analysis. RESULTS Of the 52 patients, 46 (88%) had <2 organ involvement at diagnosis. Treatment of oligometastasis was radiotherapy (RT) in 37, surgery in 4, and surgery with RT in 11 patients. Median 60 Gy were administered to the thoracic tumor. Median RT dose for oligometastasis was 30 Gy in median 5 fractions with either stereotactic body radiation therapy or conventional RT. The median follow-up was 18 months. The median OS and PFS were 35 and 20 months, respectively. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were 80.5%, 60.2%, and 41.2%, while the corresponding PFS rates were 75%, 42.5%, and 21.5%, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of "0" and thoracic RT dose over 60 Gy were significant prognostic factors for both the OS and PFS. CONCLUSIONS Definitive chemoradiotherapy to the thoracic tumor and treatment of oligometastasis region indicate promising survival outcomes.

Abstract
The present study investigated the impact of major comorbidities, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, on the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) patients in China. Patients having a pathologic diagnosis of ES-SCLC between 2009 and 2017 were enrolled and grouped according to their specific comorbidities. The PFS and OS for each group were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard models. In total, 632 patients were analyzed. The median PFS (mPFS) of these patients was 9 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 6-12 months]. The mPFS of patients without hypertension or T2DM was 9 months; conversely, it was significantly reduced for patients with hypertension [7 months (P < 0.0001)] or T2DM [5 months (P < 0.0001)]. However, mPFS was not significantly different between patients with and without HBV infection (P = 0.2936). A similar trend was observed for OS as well. Further multivariate analyses showed that the OS of patients with hypertension [hazard ratio (HR), 1.344; 95% CI, 1.073-1.683; P = 0.010] or T2DM (HR, 1.455; 95% CI, 1.134-1.868; P = 0.003) was significantly shorter than that of patients without these comorbidities. Accordingly, mortality risk was the highest in patients with concurrent hypertension and T2DM (HR, 1.665; 95% CI, 1.037-2.672; P = 0.00058). Our study found that hypertension and T2DM may be associated with a worse prognosis in ES-SCLC patients. Considerable attention should be paid to the accompanying anti-comorbidity therapies available for patients with ES-SCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have been the standard treatment for advanced EGFR-mutant adenocarcinoma, the effects of upfront EGFR-TKI use in unresectable stage III EGFR-mutant adenocarcinoma remain unexplored. Here, we conducted a retrospective study to compare different treatment strategies in these patients. METHODS From October 2010 to June 2019, patients with unresectable stage III adenocarcinoma who received treatment at a tertiary referral center were enrolled. Patients were classified into three groups: EGFR-mutant adenocarcinoma treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (group 1) or EGFR-TKI (group 2) and EGFR wild-type adenocarcinoma treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (group 3). Progression-free survival, progression-free survival-2, and overall survival were estimated and compared using Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests. RESULTS A total of 92 patients were enrolled; 10, 40, and 42 patients were assigned to groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Patients with EGFR mutations who received upfront EGFR-TKIs had significantly longer progression-free and overall survival than those who received upfront concurrent chemoradiotherapy (hazard ratio 0.33 vs. 0.34, p = 0.006 vs. 0.031) according to a Cox model adjusted for possible confounders. Moreover, upfront concurrent chemoradiotherapy did not lead to higher survival rates in patients with EGFR mutations than in those with EGFR wild-type adenocarcinoma (progression-free survival; hazard ratio 0.37, p = 0.036; overall survival; hazard ratio 0.35, p = 0.080) by Cox regression analysis. CONCLUSION This current study suggests that EGFR-TKIs is a better choice for patients with unresectable stage III EGFR-mutant adenocarcinoma. However, further randomized studies are required to validate the results.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy has provided clinical benefits for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the majority still do not respond. Although a few biomarkers of ICB treatment response have been developed, the predictive power of these biomarkers showed substantial variation across datasets. Therefore, predicting response to ICB therapy remains a challenge. Here, we provided a concise combinatorial strategy for predicting ICB therapy response and constructed the ICB treatment signature (ITS) in lung cancer. The prediction performance of ITS has been validated in an independent ICB treatment cohort of NSCLC, where patients with higher ITS score were significantly associated with longer progression-free survival and better response. And ITS score was more powerful than traditional biomarkers, such as TMB and PD-L1, in predicting the ICB treatment response in NSCLC. In addition, ITS scores still had predictive effects in other cancer data sets, showing strong scalability and robustness. Further research showed that a high ITS score represented comprehensive immune activation characteristics including activated immune cell infiltration, increased mutation load, and TCR diversity. In conclusion, our practice suggested that the combination of biomarkers will lead to a better prediction of ICB treatment prognosis, and the ITS score will provide NSCLC patients with better ICB treatment decisions.

Abstract
Machine learning (ML) has demonstrated promise in predicting mortality; however, understanding spatial variation in risk factor contributions to mortality rate requires explainability. We applied explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) on a stack-ensemble machine learning model framework to explore and visualize the spatial distribution of the contributions of known risk factors to lung and bronchus cancer (LBC) mortality rates in the conterminous United States. We used five base-learners-generalized linear model (GLM), random forest (RF), Gradient boosting machine (GBM), extreme Gradient boosting machine (XGBoost), and Deep Neural Network (DNN) for developing stack-ensemble models. Then we applied several model-agnostic approaches to interpret and visualize the stack ensemble model's output in global and local scales (at the county level). The stack ensemble generally performs better than all the base learners and three spatial regression models. A permutation-based feature importance technique ranked smoking prevalence as the most important predictor, followed by poverty and elevation. However, the impact of these risk factors on LBC mortality rates varies spatially. This is the first study to use ensemble machine learning with explainable algorithms to explore and visualize the spatial heterogeneity of the relationships between LBC mortality and risk factors in the contiguous USA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Examining immunity-related DNA methylation alterations in blood could help elucidate the role of the immune response in lung cancer etiology and aid in discovering factors that are key to lung cancer development and progression. In a nested, matched case-control study, we estimated methylation-derived NLR (mdNLR) and quantified DNA methylation levels at loci previously linked with circulating concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP). We examined associations between these measures and lung cancer risk and survival. RESULTS Using conditional logistic regression and further adjusting for BMI, batch effects, and a smoking-based methylation score, we observed a 47% increased risk of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for one standard deviation (SD) increase in mdNLR (n = 150 pairs; OR: 1.47, 95% CI 1.08, 2.02). Using a similar model, the estimated CRP Scores were inversely associated with risk of NSCLC (e.g., Score 1 OR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.40, 0.81). Using Cox proportional hazards models adjusting for age, sex, smoking status, methylation-predicted pack-years, BMI, batch effect, and stage, we observed a 28% increased risk of dying from lung cancer (n = 145 deaths in 205 cases; HR: 1.28, 95% CI: 1.09, 1.50) for one SD increase in mdNLR. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates that immunity status measured with DNA methylation markers is associated with lung cancer a decade or more prior to cancer diagnosis. A better understanding of immunity-associated methylation-based biomarkers in lung cancer development could provide insight into critical pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Early diagnosis of lung cancer increases the chance of survival. The aim of this study was to measure the relationship between geographic residence in Saskatchewan and stage of lung cancer at the time of diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Retrospective cohort analysis of 2,972 patients with a primary diagnosis of either non-small cell cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC) between 2007 and 2012 was performed. Incidence proportion of early and advanced stage cancer, and relative risk of being diagnosed with advanced-stage lung cancer relative to early-stage was calculated. RESULTS Compared to urban Saskatchewan, rural Saskatchewan lung cancer patients had a higher relative risk of advanced stage NSCLC (relative risk [RR] = 1.11, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-1.22). Rural Saskatchewan was further subdivided into north and south. The relative risk of advanced stage NSCLC in rural north Saskatchewan compared to urban Saskatchewan was even greater (RR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.03-1.31). Although not statistically significant, there was a trend for a higher incidence of advanced stage SCLC in rural and rural north vs urban Saskatchewan (RR = 1.16, 95% CI: 0.95-1.43 and RR = 1.22; 95% CI: 0.94-1.58, respectively). There was a higher incidence proportion of advanced stage NSCLC in rural areas relative to urban (31.6-34.4 vs 29.5 per 10,000 people). CONCLUSION Patients living in rural Saskatchewan have higher incidence proportion of and were more likely to present with advanced stage NSCLC in comparison to urban Saskatchewan patients at time of diagnosis. This inequality was even greater in rural north Saskatchewan.
