Validation of the 8th lung cancer TNM classification and clinical staging system in a German cohort of surgically resected patients

It is found that the 8th edition of TMN classification was a significantly better predictor of long-term survival, compared to the 7th edition.

Beyond TNM: Searching for New Patient-Centric Prognostic Indicators in NSCLC

The study presented by Li et al. identifies a new prognostic indicator for NSCLC based on a serum albumin and globulin levels and demonstrates that such a measurement not only correlates with clinical stage but also serves as an independent predictor of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) inNSCLC patients.

Revisions to the Tumor, Node, Metastasis staging of lung cancer (8th edition): Rationale, radiologic findings and clinical implications

The rationale, rationale, changes with relevance to Radiology, and clinical implications of the 8th edition of the UICC/AJCC TNM staging system with regards to lung cancer are discussed.

A single-institution retrospective analysis of the differences between 7th and 8th edition of the UICC TNM staging system in patients with advanced lung cancer.

Whether significant changes in the new TNM edition have altered the components of the TNM classification in patients and the stage of the disease to which they are ascribed is examined to reduce the patient's chances of survival by depriving them of the possibility of radical treatment.

New TNM staging in lung cancer (8th edition) and future perspectives

The evolution of TNM system continues to overcome the difficulties, and build a flexible framework enough to continue improving the individual prognosis of the patients, according to the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC).

Validation of the 8th edition of the TNM staging system in 3,950 patients with surgically resected non-small cell lung cancer.

Stratification based on the 8th edition of the TNM staging system showed favorable prognostic validity compared with the 7th edition and had superior discrimination ability in terms of OS and RFS.

The IASLC Lung Cancer Staging Project: A Proposal for a New International Lymph Node Map in the Forthcoming Seventh Edition of the TNM Classification for Lung Cancer

To achieve uniformity and to promote future analyses of a planned prospective international database, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer proposes a new lymph node map which reconciles differences among currently used maps, and provides precise anatomic definitions for all lymph node stations.

Recommendations are to subclassify T1 into T1a, T1b, and T1c, and to group involvement of main bronchus as T2 regardless of distance from carina; to group partial and total atelectasis/pneumonitis as T1; to reclassify diaphragm invasion as T4; and to delete mediastinal pleura invasion as a T descriptor.

In this revision of the TNM classification of lung cancer, cases with pleural/pericardial effusions, contralateral/bilateral lung nodules, Contralateral-bilateral pleural nodules or a combination of multiple of these parameters should continue to be grouped as M1a category, but single metastatic lesions in a single distant organ should be newly designated to the M1b category.

Suggestions include additional cutoffs for tumor size, with tumors >7 cm moving from T2 to T3; reassigning the category given to additional pulmonary nodules in some locations; and reclassifying pleural effusion as an M descriptor.
