Registry-reported names are shown in full. Names without a link have not yet been matched to a Syfrah profile.
This is a prospective observational registration trial for patients who undergo lung transplantation using cadaveric organs for medically refractory cancers affecting the lungs alone and without extrapulmonary metastasis after meeting the inclusion criteria of the clinical program at Northwestern Medicine and participating centers. Essential Clinical Criteria: 1. The tumor should be without any extrapulmonary metastasis as determined by standard of care diagnostic and staging workup. 2. All standard of care or experimental oncological treatments known to improve survival should have failed or deemed infeasible 3. Patients should meet the general criteria for lung transplant evaluation and listing
