Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of Cancers, I would like to announce a call for articles for a Special Issue entitled “ Curative Therapies for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer”. In this rapidly changing world of lung cancer therapeutics, we are seeing patients live much longer lives. At Cancers, we recognize that during the last decade, we have observed a remarkable increase in patient survival due to the better selection and refinement of techniques for surgery and radiotherapy, as well as the growing armamentarium of systemic therapies including tyrosine kinase inhibitors for actionable mutations, immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy, and anti-angiogenic therapy combined with immunotherapy.
We will be considering all options for “curative” therapy, including neo-adjuvant/adjuvant therapy for resectable disease, treatments for locally advanced disease, local therapies for oligometastatic disease (de novo, recurrent or persistent), as well as the long-term curative potential of systemic therapies.
Dr. John Michael Varlotto
Guest Editor
