      • Abstract

      Background:
      Identifying patients at high risk for recurrence in resected non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the key to choose patients who can benefit from postoperative adjuvant therapy. However, the criteria to stratify patients to receive postoperative adjuvant therapy is still clinicopathologic factor-oriented such as differentiation, tumor size, the presence of pleural involvement and vascular invasion and so on. Even using adjuvant treatment under these criteria, 5 - year survival rate is around 60% even in early-stage disease. Here, we extracted potential candidate genes for stratifying resected NSCLC patients according to correlation with their survival using public big data and validated the prognostic role of the extracted candidate gene in tumor samples of patients
