Submission received: 16 June 2025 / Revised: 16 July 2025 / Accepted: 17 July 2025 / Published: 28 August 2025
The authors would like to make the following corrections to this published paper [1].
The title of the paper should be updated from “Impact of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors on the Immune Response to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer” to “Impact of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors on the Immune Response to SARS-CoV-2 Vaccination in Patients with Thoracic Malignancies”, to describe all included patients.
The authors would like to clarify that all individuals receiving the CanSino vaccine at the time of this study received only one dose. Therefore, to avoid confusion, in the second paragraph of Section 2.1. “Study Design and Participants”, the sentence “…or inactivated virus vaccines like Sinovac-CoronaVac in one or two doses according to the pre-established scheme” is changed to “…or inactivated virus vaccines like Sinovac-CoronaVac in one (CanSino) or two doses (all others) according to the pre-established scheme.” In the fifth paragraph of Section 2.1. “Study Design and Participants”, the second sentence “Blood samples were collected 30 days after the second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine to…” is changed to “Blood samples were collected 30 days after scheme completion of the COVID-19 vaccine to…”.
As currently published, some proportions were not accurately located within each section in Table 2. Moreover, additional changes were made to subtitles to improve their clarity. The title of Table 2 has been updated to “Clinical features of thoracic malignancy patients stratified by SARS CoV-2 antigen load and titles” to describe all included patients. The correct Table 2 appears below.

In Section 3.1 “Clinical Characteristics”, some proportions did not match between the text and Tables 1 and 2. Corrections have been made here. Specifically, the fourth and fifth sentences were updated to “In the lung cancer cohort, 89.2% (n = 82) of patients had IV-stage disease, and only 10.8% (n = 10) were early-stage. Adenocarcinoma was the most common type of cancer in the overall sample, 85.9% (n = 79), while mesothelioma, 5.4% (n = 5), squamous cell carcinoma, 4.3% (n = 4), and other, 4.3% (n = 4), were found in a smaller proportion of cases (Table 2)”. The citation to Table 2 at the end of this paragraph was removed and added in the fifth sentence.
The paragraph in Section 3.2 “SARS-CoV-2 Vaccines Distribution” should be changed to the following after a detailed review of data:
“In the healthy cohort, 33.3% (n = 9) of subjects received Oxford/AstraZeneca (AZD1222), 33.3% (n = 9) Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2), 18.5% (n = 5) Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen, 11.1% (n = 3) Sputnik V, and 3.7% (n = 1) Sinovac. In the meantime, NSCLC patients received AZD1222 in 40.2% (n = 37), BNT162b2 in 33.7% (n = 31), Sinovac in 14.1% (n = 13), Sputnik V in 10.9% (n = 10), and CanSino in only 1.1% (n = 1) of cases (Table 1).”
The title of Table 3, “SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-related adverse effects in NSCLC patients according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE v5.0) scale”, must be modified to the following version according to the Materials and Methods: “SARS-CoV-2 vaccine-related adverse effects in NSCLC patients according to the Mexican Official Standard for epidemiological surveillance [12]”, as this was the scale used for measuring vaccine-related adverse effects, and to maintain methodological precision and consistency. Additionally, ‘SARS-CoV-2 Neutralizing Antibodies’ was added as a column header to accurately describe the detection methodology underlying these measurements. The newly added ref. [12] and correct Table 3 appear below.
