Article Abstract

Objective: The aim of study is to investigate whether hematological inflammatory biomarkers could be useful to detect patients with lung cancer.

Methods: The contribution of hematological biomarkers to the diagnosis of lung cancer and prediction of TNM was examined.

Results: NLR, PLR, MPV values were found to be higher in patients with lung cancer (all  < .001). NLR and PLR were found to be high, MPV was found to be lower in disease of advanced stage ( < .001).

Conclusions: This study found that NLR, PLR and MPV values were significantly higher in patients with lung cancer.

Purpose: mutations are classically seen in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs), and EGFR-directed inhibitors have changed the therapeutic landscape in patients with -mutated NSCLC. The real-world prevalence of -mutated ovarian cancers has not been previously described. We aim to determine the prevalence of pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in ovarian cancer and describe a case of -mutated metastatic ovarian cancer with a durable response to osimertinib, an EGFR-directed targeted therapy.

Objectives: The 9th edition of the Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM-9) lung cancer classification is set to replace the 8th edition (TNM-8) starting in 2025. Key updates include the splitting of the mediastinal nodal category N2 into single- and multiple-station involvement, as well as the classification of multiple extrathoracic metastatic lesions as involving a single organ system (M1c1) or multiple organ systems (M1c2). This study aimed to assess how the TNM-9 revisions affect the final staging of lung cancer patients and how these changes correlate with overall survival (OS).
