Study Summary

This trial studies how well high dose vitamin A compound works in treating participants with non-small cell lung cancer that can be removed by surgery. Vitamin A compound may increase the number of germinal centers (immune centers that make antibodies mature) in tumor and lymph tissues which may be beneficial to patients with cancer.

Primary Outcome

Presence/absence of germinal centers (GCs) in resected cancer tissues from patients who receive neoadjuvant vitamin A and controls.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE Therapeutic Conventional Surgery
  • DRUG Vitamin A Compound
