Lung Cancer

"Performing an annual chest CT scan on people at risk helps to reduce lung cancer mortality".

DR. MARÍA RODRÍGUEZ PÉREZ
COORDINATOR. LUNG CANCER AREA

The Lung Cancer Multidisciplinary Area of the Cancer Center Clínica Universidad de Navarra has more than 15 years of experience in the multidisciplinary diagnostic and therapeutic management of lung cancer and other thoracic neoplastic pathologies.

It is integrated by the various teams of specialists involved in the diagnosis and treatment of thoracic neoplasms including molecular biologists, basic and translational researchers, pathologists, radiologists, biochemists, nuclear medicine specialists, thoracic surgeons, pulmonologists, radiation oncologists and medical oncologists, mainly.

The integration of new generation genomic studies with massive sequencing panels both in tissue and in liquid biopsy, allows the exhaustive characterization of the tumor and the selection of the best therapeutic options for each patient.

Among the therapeutic options available, together with the most advanced minimally invasive and robotic surgery techniques, we have the most advanced selective irradiation technology, including proton therapy, as well as the Central Clinical Trials Unit and the Advanced Therapies Unit.

Immunotherapy for lung cancer

We have a great deal of experience in managing the most innovative therapies for the treatment of lung cancer.


Videothoracoscopic Surgery

Minimally invasive surgery by which it is possible to visualise and operate inside the chest through minimal 1-2 cm incisions in the chest wall.


Combined treatment

We seek to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy through its use in combination with other drugs or treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

PREVENTION AND PERSONALIZED TREATMENT

Comprehensive patient care

The objective of the Lung Cancer Area of the Cancer Center Clínica Universidad de Navarra is to offer the patient the vision and the joint and integrated work of the different specialists involved in the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. We work together in order to ensure the rapid resolution of your problem.


Early detection

In our annual low-dose radiation CT early detection programme, 85% of lung cancers detected are at stage I, with a high probability of cure.


Liquid biopsy

With a blood test we detect the specific genetic mutations of the tumour and establish a specific treatment that is more effective and less toxic.


Cutting-edge technology

We have the most advanced technology for the diagnosis and treatment of lung cancer. We have the Da Vinci® robot to perform, in the indicated cases, a precision approach.
