Compares treatment options for Lung Neoplasms
Official title Comparison of Segmentectomy Versus Lobectomy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer ≤ 2 cm in the Middle Third of the Lung Field
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04944563
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This study aims to investigate whether segmentectomy had non-inferiority long-term oncological effects (disease-free survival and overall survival) compared with lobectomy in the treatment of patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer ≤ 2 cm in the middle third of lung field.
