Summary

This study collects and analyzes lung tissue from 4,000 people having surgery for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. Researchers look for unique RNA and protein patterns (fingerprints) in the samples. The goal is to link these fingerprints to how the cancer behaves, such as whether it comes back. This is a research study, not a treatment.
