The statistically significant correlation between LKB1 loss and the loss of STING expression documented overall (p < 0.001), and in LUACs (p < 0.001) was also observed in the metastatic tumors, with overall LKB1 loss of (p = 0.014), while that in LUACs was (p = 0.005). The gene discussed is STING1; the disease is metastatic neoplasm.
