Evaluation of log odds of positive lymph nodes in predicting the survival of patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with neoadjuvant therapy and surgery: A SEER cohort-based study

Log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) is a novel lymph node (LN) descriptor that demonstrates promising prognostic value in many tumors. However, there is limited information regarding LODDS in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), especially those receiving neoadjuvant therapy followed by lung surgery.

Study protocol of a phase II study to evaluate safety and efficacy of neo-adjuvant pembrolizumab and radiotherapy in localized rectal cancer

Reshaping the tumor microenvironment by novel immunotherapies represents a key strategy to improve cancer treatment. Nevertheless, responsiveness to these treatments is often correlated with the extent of T cell infiltration at the tumor site. Remarkably, microsatellite stable rectal cancer is characterized by poor T cell infiltration and, therefore, does not respond to immune checkpoint blockade.
