CAC Tied to Cardiovascular Risk During Radiation Therapy for NSCLC
The burden of coronary artery calcium may help predict the risk for major adverse cardiovascular events during radiation treatment for NSCLC.

Radiotherapy did not improve response rates or survival outcomes.
Survival outcomes were similar for patients with an extended dosing interval and patients who received standard dosing.
A stage shift from later- to earlier-stage disease during the last decade was associated with improved survival among patients with NSCLC.
Patritumab deruxtecan consists of a fully human anti-HER3 IgG1 monoclonal antibody attached to a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload (an exatecan derivative, DXd) via a stable tetrapeptide-based cleavable linker.
The high frequency of pneumonitis “is a serious concern,” according to researchers.
A randomized, controlled trial was conducted to determine if physical pulmonary rehabilitation could improve outcomes after lobectomy for patients with NSCLC.
ctDNA positivity was associated with worse recurrence-free survival.
The 1-year overall survival rate was 59% with chemotherapy plus immunotherapy and 55% with immunotherapy alone.
Despite high rates of recurrence, 37% of patients with stage IB-IIIA NSCLC remained disease-free at 5 years.
