Comparison of Different Types of Surgery in Treating Patients With Stage IA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Trial ID or NCT#
NCT00499330
Status
NOT RECRUITING
Purpose
RATIONALE: Wedge resection or segmentectomy may be less invasive types of surgery than lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer and may have fewer side effects and improve recovery. It is not yet known whether wedge resection or segmentectomy are more effective than lobectomy in treating stage IA non-small cell lung cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying different types of surgery to compare how well they work in treating patients with stage IA non-small cell lung cancer.
