Abstract
The 40-year incidence trends of bronchogenic carcinoma in Olmsted County, Minnesota, are presented and analyzed. The incidence in men has risen rapidly with each decade. During the last decade this increase was due to an increase of the rate among men over 65, rates in men under 65 appearing to have plateaued. The incidence in women increased for the first time in the decade 1965 to 1974. During the period 1935 through 1974, rates for all cell types increased in men, with that for squamous cell carcinoma increasing most. In women the recent overall increase was due mainly to an increase of adenocarcinoma, which has been the predominant cell type in women throughout. Among all cases together the 5-year survivorship was 11%, which comprised 24% for squamous cell carcinoma, 11% for large cell carcinoma, 12% for adenocarcinoma, and 0 for small cell carcinoma.

Abstract
A controlled clinical trial comparing two-drug and three-drug combination chemotherapy was performed in 206 patients with advanced bronchogenic carcinoma, comprised of 26.2% with epidermoid carcinoma, 30.1% with small cell anaplastic carcinoma, 27.2% with adenocarcinoma, and 15.6% with large cell carcinoma. Each drug combination consisted of agents with different modes of action and included a cell-cycle-stage nonsensitive and a cell-cycle-state-sensitive agent. The overall response rate was highest for small cell carcinoma (48.2%) and adenocarcinoma (23.6%); it was less than 10% in epidermoid and large cell carcinoma. Similarly, the overall median survival was twice as long for the first two cell types (7 months) as compared with that recorded for the other two cell types (3 1/2 months). The combination of 1 (2-chloroethyl)-3-cyclohexyl-1-nitrosourea (CCNU), cyclophosphamide, and methotrexate was shown to be statistically superior to cyclophosphamide and methotrexate with regard to objective respones rate, duration of response, and median survival for adenocarcinoma. Responders lived significantly longer than nonresponders (254 versus 90 days for small cell anaplastic carcinoma patients and 244 versus 184 days for adenocarcinoma patients). No difference in survival or objective response rate was observed between the different treatments for the other two cell types of lung cancer.

Abstract
One hundred and eighty-eight patients with inoperable or unresectable bronchogenic carcinoma were stratified by cell type, TNM staging, and prior surgery and then randomized into two treatment groups: continuous radiation therapy and split-course radiation therapy. There was no difference in clinical or objective improvement in the two groups. Survival rates for cases of squamous cell carcinoma, small cell carcinoma, and adrenocarcinoma were the same after both regimens of therapy. Split-course therapy resulted in a significantly better survival rate in cases of large cell carcinoma but the number of cases was small. We doubt that the difference is clinically significant. Objective roentgenographic response was accompanied by improved survival in squamous cell carcinoma, but not in the other three cell types. Split-course radiation therapy is superior to continuous radiation therapy because it is better tolerated by the patient and because re-examination of the patient prior to the second half of split-course therapy permits the detection of new metastatic disease that has become manifest during the rest period and spares the patient the futile second half of radiation therapy.

Abstract
Altman, R. L., Miller, W. E., Carr, D. T., Payne, W. S., and Woolner, L. B. (1973).Thorax, 28, 433-434. Radiographic appearance of bronchial carcinoid. The chest radiographs of 67 patients with bronchial carcinoid were reviewed. Seven had negative radiographs. Fifty-five had single abnormalities, the common manifestations being collapse or pneumonitis (21 patients), a small peripheral mass (20 patients), and a hilar or perihilar mass (11 patients). Five patients had multiple abnormalities, the most common combination being a mass with evidence of bronchial obstruction such as collapse of the related segment or lobe. Comparison with other reports revealed a significant difference in the frequency of the various abnormalities, a difference probably due to chance variations in the locations and to the age of the tumours at the time of diagnosis.

Abstract
Forty-eight patients with nonlocalized bronchogenic carcinoma were randomly selected and treated with either 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU) or cyclophosphamide (or both). Five of the 48 patients (three who had received BCNU and two who had received cyclophosphamide) responded to initial treatment. Crossover treatment with the alternate drug after unsuccessful treatment with the initial drug resulted in no additional responses. Toxic effects included gastrointestinal upset and myelosuppression and, in general, were acceptable. There was one death after a course of BCNU that was attributable to the myelosuppressive effects of this agent. The medain survival time of the patients who died after treatment was 18 weeks, and the mean survival time was 15 weeks. Survival times were virtually the same for both treatment groups.
