Risk-based strategies are superior to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) criteria for optimizing efficiency and minimizing variation of lung cancer screening across racial and ethnic groups, according to a study published online June 30 in the Annals of Internal Med

According to the Cleveland Clinic, a quarter of cancer deaths can be attributed to one source: cachexia. Cachexia is a syndrome that accompanies underlying chronic illness and causes unwanted muscle and fat loss, reducing quality of life and sometimes even limiting treatment opti

Researchers have long sought to discover why babies who weigh less than expected at birth, a condition known as small for gestational age, or SGA, are at higher risk for heart, lung and metabolic diseases as adults.

Breakthrough research led by scientists in Manchester has identified a new drug combination that could improve outcomes for thousands of patients with lung cancer driven by a rare type of KRAS mutation, offering hope for patients worldwide with this difficult-to-treat subtype of

Researchers have validated a genetic scoring tool that may help physicians diagnose idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and identify which patients are at greatest risk for severe outcomes, including death or the need for a lung transplant. The findings come from a new international st

A collaborative research team has identified a novel blood-based biomarker capable of detecting early-stage lung cancer and predicting patient prognosis. The findings are published in the Journal of Extracellular Vesicles.

A landmark Northwestern Medicine study published in JAMA suggests lung transplantation can significantly extend survival in select patients with advanced lung cancer.

New research has uncovered a hidden pathway that allows COVID-19 to infect the immune system and trigger damaging inflammation in the lungs. The study by La Trobe University and WEHI researchers found SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, can hide inside tiny fragments of d

Scientists have developed a new method for accurately predicting gene changes that cause lung cancer, without the need for slower, more expensive lab techniques. The technology was able to identify specific genetic changes with high accuracy, offering a potentially faster, more e

Mesothelioma is a rare but aggressive cancer, usually caused by exposure to asbestos. Inhaled asbestos fibers become lodged in the lungs, causing inflammation that can lead to tumor formation decades later. Worldwide, about 30,000 people are diagnosed with mesothelioma each year.
