Research Project:
Identifying an Immune Response in Patients with Lung Cancer
Summary:
This lab will explore their recent discovery of an immune marker that appears to predict patients with lung cancer who do not demonstrate a tendency for their cancer to spread outside of the lung. By better understanding how this mechanism may work, it may be possible to use this knowledge for more effective outcomes of care.
