Details and patient eligibility

About

The investigators previously validated the grading system proposed by International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) for invasive nonmucinous lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) for its reproducibility, prognostication function and predictive value of adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT). In this exploratory study, the investigators aimed to investigate the role of IASLC grading system in EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy selection either as adjuvant or palliative therapy.
