The main specialist journal for lung cancer and other chest tumours, publishing trials, translational studies and reviews. Read by thoracic oncologists, surgeons and pulmonologists.
Lung Cancer is published by Elsevier and is described on its ScienceDirect page as an international journal for lung cancer and other thoracic malignancies and an official journal of the European Society for Medical Oncology, the ETOP IBCSG Partners Foundation and the British Thoracic Oncology Group; NLM catalogues it under its older subtitle as the journal of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer. It covers the clinical, translational and basic science of malignancies of the lung and chest region, welcoming original research articles, early reports, review articles, editorials and correspondence on prevention, epidemiology and aetiology, basic biology, pathology, clinical assessment, surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, combined modality treatment and outcomes. Elsevier lists it as supporting open access with an open archive, with a choice of open access (article publishing charge) or subscription publication. NLM records it as starting in 1985 and currently indexed in MEDLINE.
This is the paper Europe PMC returns for registry id NCT05195632 with the most citations, so it is the natural first reading for anyone following the OCEANII trial. Read the abstract above alongside the trial page and the registry entry; the record was linked automatically and its figures have not been checked by hand.
For a patient weighing the FLAURA2 regimen against osimertinib alone, the extra toxicity is front-loaded: the hardest months are the four induction cycles, and once pemetrexed stops the profile returns to that of osimertinib by itself. Kidney function deserves watching during pemetrexed maintenance.
A second publication from the ORIENT-11 trial, later than the first and described in its title as an update or longer-term analysis. Read it with the primary publication linked from the trial page; the record was linked automatically and its figures have not been checked by hand.
