NCIt definition : Stage IIIA includes: (T1a, N2, M0); (T1b, N2, M0); (T2a, N2, M0); (T2b, N2, M0); (T3,
N1, M0); (T3, N2, M0); (T4, N0, M0); (T4, N1, M0). T4: Lung cancer with a tumor of
any size that invades any of the following: mediastinum, heart, great vessels, trachea,
recurrent laryngeal nerve, esophagus, vertebral body, carina, and separate tumor nodule(s)
in a different ipsilateral lobe. N1: Lung cancer with metastasis in ipsilateral peribronchial
and/or ipsilateral hilar lymph nodes and intrapulmonary lymph nodes, including involvement
by direct extension. N2: Lung cancer with metastasis to ipsilateral mediastinal and/or
subcarinal lymph nodes. M0: No distant metastasis. (AJCC 7th ed.);
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: Stage III non-small cell lung cancer is divided into stages IIIA and IIIB.
In stage IIIA, cancer has spread to lymph nodes on the same side of the chest as the
tumor. Also, (1) the tumor may be any size; (2) part of the lung (where the trachea
joins the bronchus) or the whole lung may have collapsed or become inflamed; (3) there
may be one or more separate tumors in the same lobe of the lung; and/or (4) cancer
may have spread to any of the following: main bronchus (but not the area where the
trachea joins the bronchus), chest wall, diaphragm and the nerve that controls it,
or membrane around the heart, lung, or lining the chest wall. OR in stage IIIA, cancer
has spread to lymph nodes on the same side of the chest as the tumor. Also, (1) the
tumor may be any size; (2) the whole lung may have collapsed or become inflamed; (3)
there may be one or more separate tumors in any of the lobes of the lung with cancer;
and/or (4) cancer may have spread to any of the following: main bronchus (but not
the area where the trachea joins the bronchus), chest wall, diaphragm and the nerve
that controls it, membrane around the lung or lining the chest wall, heart or the
membrane around it, trachea, carina (where the trachea joins the bronchi), esophagus,
sternum (chest bone), backbone, major blood vessels that lead to or from the heart,
or the nerve that controls the larynx (voice box). OR in stage IIIA, cancer has not
spread to the lymph nodes and the tumor may be any size. Cancer has spread to any
of the following: trachea, carina, esophagus, sternum, backbone, heart, major blood
vessels that lead to or from the heart, or the nerve that controls the larynx.;
