Absent preoperative non-small cell lung cancer confirmation and relevant stage migration in the era before neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy: implications for treatment decisions in resectable non-small cell lung cancer
In the era before the introduction of neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy as standard of care, absent preoperative NSCLC confirmation or inaccurate staging occurred in nearly a quarter of potential candidates for neoadjuvant treatment. These two limiting factors will need to be addressed in order to adequately administer neoadjuvant therapy in patients with resectable NSCLC conform current guidelines.
