About this trial
This study will utilize tissue and peripheral blood samples for proteomics analysis and establish a longitudinal proteomics cohort at multiple critical treatment time points to explore the research value of proteomics in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. The study includes key time points such as screening, postoperative efficacy prediction, and efficacy prediction after medication.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Area Under the Curve
AUC, or Area Under the Curve, is a commonly used metric in statistical and machine learning models, particularly for evaluating the performance of classification models. It refers to the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, which plots the true positive rate (sensitivity) against the false positive rate (1-specificity) at various threshold settings. An AUC value ranges from 0 to 1, where: * 1 indicates a perfect model, * 0.5 suggests a model no better than random guessing, * \< 0.5 reflects a model performing worse than random. In clinical studies, AUC is often used to assess diagnostic tests, where a higher AUC indicates better test accuracy in distinguishing between conditions (e.g., disease vs. no disease).
Secondary outcomes
Differentially Expressed Proteins
Differential proteins, or differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), refer to proteins that show significant changes in expression levels between different biological or experimental conditions, such as disease vs. healthy states, treated vs. untreated groups, or across time points in longitudinal studies. These proteins are identified through quantitative proteomics techniques, including mass spectrometry or label-free methods, and analyzed using statistical or bioinformatics tools to determine significance.
