Evaluation of a Novel Molecular NSCLC Classification System

This research studies protein in tumor samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Finding specific proteins in tumor tissue samples from patients with cancer may help doctors
tell what type of lung cancer a patient has and plan better treatment.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To validate a novel 4-protein signature's ability to subtype non-small cell lung cancer
(NSCLC) in a treatment-naive, multi-institutional cohort, Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB)
9761.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the NSCLC misclassification rate in a multi-institutional clinical-trial
setting for stage 1 NSCLC (adenocarcinoma versus squamous cell).

OUTLINE:

Previously collected tissue samples are analyzed via hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and
immunohistochemistry (IHC).

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients must have been registered on CALGB-9761

- Stage I disease

- Treatment-naive patients

- A representative paraffin block of the primary tumor must be available from patients
on CALGB-9761 and submitted to the CALGB Pathology Coordinating Office

- A separate consent form is not required for this study, as permission for research to
be performed on the tissue blocks is included in the consent form for CALGB 9761

- Institutional review board (IRB) review and approval at the institution where the
laboratory work will be performed is required
