This journal focuses on thoracic cancers, particularly lung cancer, including small-cell and non-small cell subtypes. Research covers treatment modalities such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, targeted therapies, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. It also investigates diagnostic approaches like genomic profiling and biomarker testing, as well as surgical interventions and perioperative management. The scope includes the study of tumor microenvironment, resistance mechanisms, and treatment-related adverse events like interstitial lung disease and cardiotoxicity.
