Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The role of sublobar resection(Wedge resection or anatomic segmentectomy) for small(≤ 2cm) early stage non-small cell lung cancer has been studied by Lung Cancer Study Group and is being studied by several ongoing trials. However, elderly patients(aged ≥70 years) in these trials is under-represented, as in most of the ongoing clinical trials. This study focuses on the elderly population of early stage lung cancer, and aims to investigate the outcome of lobectomy versus sublobar resection for peripheral stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in elderly patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This randomized trial is to the best of our knowledge the first one designed to compare sublobar resection and lobectomy for elderly patients, in order to address these open questions:In patients aged 70 years or older and with clinical stage T1N0M0 NSCLC, (1) whether sublobar resection can achieve similar disease-free survival compared to lobectomy, (2) whether sublobar resection can reduce the postoperative mortality and morbidity,(3) whether sublobar resection can reserve better pulmonary function and quality of life for elderly patients of NSCLC?

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Aged 70 years or older
* Preoperative criteria (contrast-enhanced Computed tomography scan)

* Clinical stage ⅠA, i.e. T1N0M0 (tumor diameter ≤3 cm, surrounded by visceral pleura, short-axis of lymph node \<1 cm or cold lymph nodes on PET scan)
* The maximum diameter of consolidation of the maximum tumor diameter (consolidation/tumor ratio, C/T ratio) is no less than 0.5 in sub-solid lesions
* Eligible for sublobar resection with sufficient margin
* Intraoperative criteria

* Histologically confirmed invasive NSCLC, i.e. NSCLC other than pre-invasive adenocarcinomas defined by The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (adenocarcinoma in situ, and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma)
* Pathological exclusion of suspected lymph nodes involvement
* Feasible to perform sublobar resection in terms of surgical margin requirement
* General criteria

* Must sign informed consent by the patient or his/her entrusted party
* Must complete 4-year mortality index and comprehensive geriatric assessment(CGA) if necessary
* The physiological reservation can tolerate lobectomy

Exclusion Criteria

* Unable to comply with the study procedure
* Past thoracic surgery history, except for diagnostic thoracoscopy
* Malignant tumor history within the past 5 years, except for the following conditions: cured skin basal cell carcinoma, superficial bladder carcinoma, and uterine cervix cancer in situ
