• Histologically or cytologically proven irresectable stage III or IV non-small cell lung cancer
• Age above 18 years
• Performance score: WHO 0, 1 or 2 at the time of study entry
• Written informed consent
• Specific inclusion criteria for tissue biopsies:
- Only target lesion with limited biopsy-procedure related complication risk will be sampled; For instance easily accessible peripheral lymph nodes, subcutaneous, pleural, liver metastastasis.
- Other lesions will only be included if there is a clinical necessity for tissue analysis (e.g. molecular profiling, resection metastasis in case of oligometastastic disease).
- Only non-irradiated lesions will be sampled
• Severe anemia (Hb < 6.0 mmol/L)
• Any bleeding disorder or anti-coagulation therapy, that cannot be discontinued or corrected, that significantly increases the risk of a bleeding due to the biopsy.
