The Impact of Surgical Technique on Circulating Tumor DNA in Stage I-III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Sponsored by Thomas Jefferson University

About this study

This clinical trial compares the effect of pulmonary vein-first surgical technique to pulmonary artery-first surgical technique in decreasing circulating tumor cell deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) in patients with stage I-III non-small cell lung cancer. Pulmonary vein first and pulmonary artery first surgical techniques are standard surgical techniques for the division of the blood vessels during lung resection surgery. Pulmonary vein-first surgical technique may reduce the risk of shedding tumor cells during surgery and influence long term overall survival.
