Consortia, Tumor Sequencing, and Biomarkers in Lung Cancer Research

This chapter discusses the Tracer X and CAPTURE consortia and their involvement in lung cancer research. It focuses on tumor sequencing, the creation of a valuable bio-bank, and the analysis of different tumor sequences to predict tumor location. The chapter also explores the relevance of B cells, germinal centers, and immune-cell types in lung carcinoma and their potential as biomarkers for immunotherapy response.
