Comparative analysis of overall survival in non-small cell lung cancer patients with and without different organ metastases

Tóm tắt

Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death globally. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes more than 80% of all lung cancers, and patients with distant metastasis have much higher mortality. The survival times of NSCLC patients with metastasis have been reported in early studies, however, it remains unclear whether there are variations or patterns in survival times of patients with different metastases. Therefore, we assessed risk factors for distant metastases and the effects of different organ metastasis on overall survival (OS) in patients with NSCLC. Methods...
