Abstract

Approximately half of the NSCLC patients on targeted therapy or after curative treatment of localized disease experience oligoprogression (OP). Local ablative therapy (LAT) of OP sites can eradicate the resistant clones at and restore the overall sensitivity of systemic therapy.

In this retrospective study, we evaluated the outcomes of LAT for NSCLC patients with OP disease.
