Estimating the cure proportion of stage IA lung adenocarcinoma: a population-based study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

We aimed to investigate the factors influencing the cure, recurrence, and metastasis rates of stage IA lung adenocarcinoma, using a mixed cure model.

Methods

A total of 1,064 patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic pulmonectomy were included. Variable screening was performed using the random forest algorithm and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator approaches. The mixed cure model was used to identify factors affecting patient cure and survival, and a sequential analysis was performed on 5%, 10%, and 20% of the presentational subtype concurrently. A receiver operating characteristics curve was used to determine the best model and construct a nomogram to predict the cure rate.

Results

The median follow-up time was 58 (range: 3-115) mon
