“…Lung adenocarcinoma is the most common pathological type of lung cancer . Rapid progression, easy to metastasize and chemoresistance are the challenges faced by treatment . The discovery and application of new molecular targets that reflect tumor biological behavior, and even potentially be a therapeutic target, may be helpful.…”

“…In 2014, Feng et al 13 published recurrence data for patients with N2 disease treated with surgery alone, without postoperative radiation. Of 250 patients, 173 relapsed, and the sites of first relapse were locoregional only in 29, locoregional and distant in 25, and distant in 119.…”

“…[2][3][4][5][6] Nonetheless, even after complete resection and postoperative chemotherapy, the rate of locoregional failure can be up to 30% to 40%. 7 Postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) to the mediastinum for microscopic disease is reported to reduce local recurrence in patients with pN2 squamous cell lung cancer. 8 In a meta-analysis of nine trials involving >2000 patients, PORT for completely resected NSCLC was reported to result in a 7% increase in overall mortality at 2 years, and non-significant survival benefit in the pN2 subgroup.…”
