Pilot Trial of ctDNA of Guidance to Determine PostOperative Radiation Therapy (PORT) for Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) for Lung Cancer: the MRD-PORT Trial

Primary Objective:
Evaluate the role of ctDNA positivity in decision making for postoperative therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. The plan for postoperative therapy will be declared after pathology report review and before the ctDNA result. We will assess if ctDNA result changed the planned therapy.

Secondary Objectives:
Evaluate personalized postoperative Chemo/ICPI/Targeted Therapies/Radiation Therapy in clearing ctDNA

Evaluate the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of stage II/III lung cancer patients with postoperative ctDNA positive status

Exploratory Objective:
Evaluate radiomics features based on serial CT thoracic CT scans to determine if radiomic features can be associated with ctDNA positivity/negativity.
