BRAF/MEK-targeted therapy in BRAF ex15 p.T599dup mutation-driven NSCLC: a case report
J Cancer Res Clin Oncol. 2024 Mar 27;150(3):162. doi: 10.1007/s00432-024-05675-9.ABSTRACTBRAF mutations are found in 1-5% of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with V600 and non-V600 accounting for approximately 50% each. It has been confirmed that targeted therapy with dabrafenib + trametinib is effective in patients with metastatic NSCLC carrying BRAF V600E mutations. Preclinical studies have shown that dabrafenib + trametinib may also have inhibitory effects on some types of non-V600E mutations, especially some class II BRAF mutations. However, the efficacy of dabrafenib + trametinib on non-V600E mutant NSCLC in clinic...

Robotic Lobectomy Learning Curve Has Better Clinical Outcomes than Videothoracoscopic Lobectomy
Conclusions: The RATS curve appears shorter than the VATS curve. RATS lobectomies resulted in reduced chest tube duration and length of stay during the learning time period.PMID:38541879 | DOI:10.3390/jcm13061653 (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)

Diagnostic Accuracy in Detecting Fungal Infection with Ultra-Low-Dose Computed Tomography (ULD-CT) Using Filtered Back Projection (FBP) Technique in Immunocompromised Patients
Conclusions: Thoracic uLDCT, at a 75% dose reduction, can replace LDCT for the detection of fungal disease in IC patients with BMI < 30.0 kg/m2.PMID:38541929 | DOI:10.3390/jcm13061704 (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)

Visual scoring of osteoporosis on low-dose CT in lung cancer screening population
CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows that a simple approach of applying specific window width and level settings to already reconstructed sagittal images obtained in the context of low-dose CT screening for lung cancer is highly feasible and useful in identifying osteoporosis.PMID:38547669 | DOI:10.1016/j.clinimag.2024.110115 (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)

Impact of Broadening Trial Eligibility Criteria on the Inclusion of Patients With Brain Metastases in Cancer Clinical Trials: Time Series Analyses for 2012-2022
CONCLUSION: The ASCO/FoCR/FDA task force recommendations were associated with a shift in patterns of brain metastases exclusion criteria from conditionally excluded to not excluded. These findings demonstrate that the cancer clinical trial community has begun to change the way trials are written to be more inclusive.PMID:38537158 | DOI:10.1200/JCO.23.01777 (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)

Pack-Year Smoking History: An Inadequate and Biased Measure to Determine Lung Cancer Screening Eligibility
CONCLUSION: Use of a 20-year smoking duration cutoff instead of a 20-pack-year cutoff greatly increases the proportion of patients with lung cancer who would qualify for screening and eliminates the racial disparity in screening eligibility between Black versus White individuals; smoking duration has the added benefit of being easier to calculate and being a more precise assessment of smoking exposure compared with pack-year smoking history.PMID:38537159 | DOI:10.1200/JCO.23.01780 (Source: Clinical Lung Cancer)
