Brief Summary
This study is a multi-center, retrospective observational study of patients with lung NUT carcinoma. Existing clinical records from participating hospitals will be reviewed to describe patient characteristics, treatments, and outcomes. No study-related interventions will be performed. Data will be de-identified to protect patient privacy.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time from initial diagnosis (index date) to first documented disease progression per routine clinical assessment or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
From diagnosis through study completion (up to May 2026)
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Overall Survival (OS)
From diagnosis through study completion (up to May 2026)
Interventions
Treatments received as part of routine clinical care and recorded retrospectively in medical records, which may include surgery, radiotherapy, systemic chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and/or immunotherapy. No study-related intervention will be assigned or provided. This observational study only collects and analyzes de-identified real-world treatment and outcome data.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients with pulmonary (lung) NUT carcinoma identified retrospectively from participating hospitals using pathology records, with clinical, pathologic, and imaging data abstracted from existing medical records and de-identified for analysis.
You may qualify if:
- Pathologically confirmed pulmonary (lung) NUT carcinoma.
- Evidence of NUT immunohistochemistry (IHC) positivity and/or NUTM1 rearrangement/fusion, per local pathology report.
- Diagnosed and/or treated at a participating hospital during the study period.
- Availability of sufficient medical record data to abstract key baseline characteristics, treatments, and outcomes.
You may not qualify if:
- Primary tumor site not in the lung.
- Records insufficient to confirm the diagnosis of pulmonary NUT carcinoma.
- No follow-up or outcome information available after diagnosis (insufficient for survival/outcome assessment).
