Thymic epithelial tumors management framework by resectability. Resectability matrix.

  1. Thymic Epithelial Tumors
    • Stage/Resectability
      • Clearly Resectable
        • Surgery (+/-PORT)
      • Borderline/Locally Advanced
        • Induction Chemotherapy
          CAP carbo/pac+- rami
          • Surgery
            • +/- PORT
      • Unresectable
        • Induction Chemoradiation
          cis/etop
          • +/- Surgery
      • Metastatic
        • Systemic chemotherapy
  2. Caveats
    *No randomized neoadjuvant vs upfront surgery trials *Heterogeneity of regimens by histology *Role of pre-op IO is unclear
