Newest Research! Diagnostic Test Development for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Investigator: Jeffrey A. Borgia, PhD, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago We have developed a first-generation blood test that is capable of correctly diagnosing 87 percent of patients with early-stage NSCLC against an age and sex matched patient population without cancer.  Further refinement of this diagnostic panel through a better appreciation of molecules shed by the tumor into the bloodstream will allow us to improve the detection of NSCLC in its earliest stages, when curative surgery is still a viable option.  Click here to read more about Borgia's research.    Love Your Lungs In Memory of Gayle Levy Making Strides Towards a Lung Cancer Cure LUNGevity Foundation hosts its first walk on the downtown Chicago lakefront on Saturday May 16, 2009.  Register, Donate, or Learn More About the Event!
