Patterns and Impact of Nodal Metastases After Neoadjuvant Chemoradiation and R0 Resection in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma. J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2022; 164:411-419. [PMID: 35346491 PMCID: PMC9288545 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2021.11.094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Little is known about the pattern of nodal metastases in patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma who have received neoadjuvant chemoradiation and undergone surgery. We sought to assess this pattern and evaluate its association with prognosis. METHODS All patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation and R0 esophagectomy between 2010 and 2018 at our institution were included (n = 537). The primary objective was to evaluate the association of sites of lymph node metastases with disease-free survival. The number of nodal stations and individual sites of nodal metastases were evaluated first in univariable then in separate multivariable Cox regression models adjusted for clinical factors. RESULTS Of 537 patients, 193 (36%) had pathologic nodal metastases at the time of surgery; 153 (28%) had single-station disease, 32 (6.0%) had 2-station disease, and 8 (1.5%) had 3-station disease. The majority of patients with multiple positive nodal stations had positive nodes in the paraesophageal (93%) and/or left gastric stations (60%). Multivariable models controlling for clinical factors showed that an increasing number of positive nodal stations (hazard ratio, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.35-1.84; P < .01)-in particular, the subcarinal (hazard ratio, 2.78; 95% CI, 1.54-5.03; P < .01) and paraesophageal stations (hazard ratio, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.58-2.54; P < .01)-was associated with increased risk of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS One-third of patients who have undergone R0 resection for esophageal adenocarcinoma following induction chemoradiation therapy have metastatic lymph nodes. An increasing number of nodal stations, particularly paraesophageal and subcarinal metastases, were associated with increased risk of recurrence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with stage II to III lung adenocarcinomas are treated with adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) to target the premetastatic niche that persists after curative-intent resection. We hypothesized that the premetastatic niche is a scion of resected lung tumor microenvironment and that analysis of tumor microenvironment can stratify survival benefit from ACT. METHODS Using tumor and tumoral stroma from 475 treatment-naive patients with stage II to III lung adenocarcinomas, we constructed a tissue microarray and performed multiplex immunofluorescent staining for immune markers (programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1], tumor-associated macrophages [TAMs], and myeloid-derived suppressor cells) and derived myeloid-lymphoid ratio. The association between immune markers and survival was evaluated using Cox models adjusted for pathologic stage. RESULTS Patients with high PD-L1 expression on TAMs or tumor cells in resected tumors had improved survival with ACT (TAMs: hazard ratio [HR] = 1.79, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-2.85; tumor cells: HR = 3.02, 95% CI: 1.69-5.40). Among patients with high PD-L1 expression on TAMs alone or TAMs and tumor cells, ACT survival benefit is pronounced with high myeloid-lymphoid ratio (TAMs: HR = 3.87, 95% CI: 1.79-8.37; TAMs and tumor cells: HR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.02-4.71) or with high stromal myeloid-derived suppressor cell ratio (TAMs: HR = 2.53, 95% CI: 1.29-4.96; TAMs and tumor cells: HR = 3.21, 95% CI: 1.23-8.35). Patients with low or no PD-L1 expression on TAMs or tumor cells had no survival benefit from ACT. CONCLUSIONS Our observation that PD-L1 expression on TAMs or tumor cells is associated with improved survival with ACT provides rationale for prospective investigation and developing chemoimmunotherapy strategies for patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pretreatment-predicted postoperative diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) has been associated with operative mortality in patients who receive induction therapy for resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is unknown whether a reduction in pulmonary function after induction therapy and before surgery affects the risk of morbidity or mortality. We sought to determine the relationship between induction therapy and perioperative outcomes as a function of postinduction pulmonary status in patients who underwent surgical resection for NSCLC. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data for 1001 patients with pathologic stage I, II, or III NSCLC who received induction therapy before lung resection. Pulmonary function was defined according to American College of Surgeons Oncology Group major criteria: DLCO ≥50% = normal; DLCO <50% = impaired. Patients were categorized into 5 subgroups according to combined pre- and postinduction DLCO status: normal-normal, normal-impaired, impaired-normal, impaired-impaired, and preinduction only (without postinduction pulmonary function test measurements). Multivariable logistic regression was used to quantify the relationship between DLCO categories and dichotomous end points. RESULTS In multivariable analysis, normal-impaired DLCO status was associated with an increased risk of respiratory complications (odds ratio, 2.29 [95% CI, 1.12-4.49]; P = .02) and in-hospital complications (odds ratio, 2.83 [95% CI, 1.55-5.26]; P < .001). Type of neoadjuvant therapy was not associated with an increased risk of complications, compared with conventional chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Reduced postinduction DLCO might predict perioperative outcomes. The use of repeat pulmonary function testing might identify patients at higher risk of morbidity or mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the USA. Improved survival has resulted in increasing incidence of second primary malignancies, of which lung cancer is the most common. The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) guidelines for lung-cancer screening do not include previous malignancy as a high-risk feature requiring evaluation. The aim of this study was to compare women undergoing resection for lung cancer with and without a history of breast cancer and to assess whether there were differences in stage at diagnosis, survival and eligibility for lung-cancer screening between the two groups. METHODS Women who underwent lung-cancer resection between 2000 and 2017 were identified. Demographic, clinicopathological, treatment and outcomes data were compared between patients with a history of breast cancer (BC-Lung) and patients without a history of breast cancer (P-Lung) before lung cancer. RESULTS Of 2192 patients included, 331 (15.1 per cent) were in the BC-Lung group. The most common method of lung-cancer diagnosis in the BC-Lung group was breast-cancer surveillance or work-up imaging. Patients in the BC-Lung group had an earlier stage of lung cancer at the time of diagnosis. Five-year overall survival was not statistically significantly different between groups (73.3 per cent for both). Overall, 58.4 per cent of patients (1281 patients) had a history of smoking, and 33.3 per cent (731 patients) met the current criteria for lung-cancer screening. CONCLUSION Differences in stage at diagnosis of lung cancer and treatment selection were observed between patients with and without a history of breast cancer. Overall, there were no statistically significant differences in genomic or oncogenic pathway alterations between the two groups, which suggests that lung cancer in patients who previously had breast cancer may not be affected at the genomic level by the previous breast cancer. The most important finding of the study was that a high percentage of women with lung cancer, regardless of breast-cancer history, did not meet the current USPSTF criteria for lung-cancer screening.

Abstract
Introduction Given the concern for cardiopulmonary toxicity in patients with NSCLC undergoing postoperative radiation therapy (PORT), the purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between heart dose and overall survival (OS) in patients undergoing PORT with modern techniques. Methods This is a retrospective study of consecutive patients with NSCLC treated with PORT between May 2004 and January 2017. Clinical records were reviewed and radiation dose distributions were analyzed for association with OS. Results A total of 284 patients were analyzed. At the time of surgery, most patients had pathologic American Joint Committee on Cancer seventh edition stage III disease (91.2 %) and received either preoperative or adjuvant chemotherapy (92.3 %). Most patients underwent a lobectomy (81.3 %) and had R0 (80.6 %) or R1 (19.4 %) resection. PORT was delivered with a median radiation dose of 54 Gy, and 70.4 % of patients were treated with intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Dosimetric variables across a large range of doses to the heart were highly significant (p < 0.05) for OS. The volume of the heart receiving 8 Gy (HV8) was the most significant dosimetric variable (p < 0.001), and the median HV8 was 35.5 %. The median OS was 33.2 versus 53.6 months (p < 0.005) for patients with HV8 above or below 35.5 %, respectively. On multivariable analysis accounting for other potential prognostic confounders, HV8 remained highly significant (p < 0.001). Conclusions The data reveal a strong correlation between increasing heart dose and OS in patients with NSCLC undergoing PORT. Taken together with the recently presented LungART trial, lowering heart dose in PORT patients may help to decrease the risk of morbidity and mortality and improve the therapeutic ratio of PORT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Isolated local recurrence after curative esophagectomy for esophageal cancer is a rare event. Although it is potentially curable, management can be challenging. METHODS We performed a retrospective review of all patients undergoing esophagectomy for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) from 2000 to 2019. Date of recurrence was defined as the date at which the initial abnormal surveillance study or symptomatic presentation led to further workup and subsequent pathologic diagnosis of recurrence. Overall survival after recurrence was estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods and compared between treatment groups using the log-rank test. RESULTS Of the 1370 patients with EAC who underwent esophagectomy in our cohort, 531 (39%) developed recurrence of their disease. The 5-year cumulative incidence of recurrence was 2.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.0%-3.6%) for local, 6.3% (95% CI, 5.2%-7.8%) for regional, and 22.0% (95% CI, 20.0%-24.4%) for distant recurrences. On univariable and multivariable competing-risk regression analysis, advanced pT stage, signet ring histology, and serious complication were independently associated with local recurrence. Patients with local recurrence treated with definitive therapy had a median survival after recurrence of 19.1 months (95% CI, 11.4-33.2 months), compared with 10.6 months (95% CI, 8.5-14.2 months) for chemotherapy or radiotherapy alone and 1.73 months (95% CI, 0.23-15.6 months) for no treatment (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Isolated local recurrence occurred in only 3% of patients. Advanced T stage, signet cell histology, and serious complication were risk factors for recurrence. Although complex surgical resection is required, in very select cases, more-aggressive treatment may be warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Liquid biopsy for plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) next-generation sequencing (NGS) can detect ALK fusions, though data on clinical utility of this technology in the real world is limited. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with lung cancer without known oncogenic drivers or who had acquired resistance to therapy (n = 736) underwent prospective plasma ctDNA NGS. A subset of this cohort (n = 497) also had tissue NGS. We evaluated ALK fusion detection, turnaround time (TAT), plasma and tissue concordance, matching to therapy, and treatment response. RESULTS ctDNA identified an ALK fusion in 21 patients (3%) with a variety of breakpoints and fusion partners, including EML4, CLTC, and PON1, a novel ALK fusion partner. TAT for ctDNA NGS was shorter than tissue NGS (10 vs. 20 days; p < 0.001). Among ALK fusions identified by ctDNA, 93% (13/14, 95% CI 66%-99%) were concordant with tissue evaluation. Among ALK fusions detected by tissue NGS, 54% (13/24, 95% CI 33%-74%) were concordant with plasma ctDNA. ctDNA matched patients to ALK-directed therapy with subsequent clinical response, including four patients matched on the basis of ctDNA results alone due to inadequate or delayed tissue testing. Serial ctDNA analysis detected MET amplification (n = 2) and ALK G1202R mutation (n = 2) as mechanisms of acquired resistance to ALK-directed therapy. CONCLUSION Our findings support a complementary role for ctDNA in detection of ALK fusions and other alterations at diagnosis and therapeutic resistance settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioids have been linked to worse oncologic outcomes in surgical patients. Studies in certain cancer types have identified associations between survival and intra-tumoural opioid receptor gene alterations, but no study has investigated whether the tumour genome interacts with opioid exposure to affect survival. We sought to determine whether intraoperative opioid exposure is associated with recurrence-specific survival and overall survival in early-stage lung adenocarcinoma, and whether selected tumour genomics are associated with this relationship. Associations between ketamine and dexmedetomidine and outcomes were also studied. METHODS Surgical patients (N=740) with pathological stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma and next-generation sequencing data were retrospectively reviewed from a prospectively maintained database. RESULTS On multivariable analysis, ketamine administration was protective for recurrence-specific survival (hazard ratio = 0.44, 95% confidence interval 0.24-0.80; P=0.007), compared with no adjunct. Higher intraoperative oral morphine milligram equivalents were significantly associated with worse overall survival (hazard ratio=1.09/10 morphine milligram equivalents, 95% confidence interval 1.02-1.17; P=0.010). Significant interaction effects were found between morphine milligram equivalents and fraction genome altered and morphine milligram equivalents and CDKN2A, such that higher fraction genome altered or CDKN2A alterations were associated with worse overall survival at higher morphine milligram equivalents (P=0.044 and P=0.052, respectively). In contrast, alterations in the Wnt (P=0.029) and Hippo (P=0.040) oncogenic pathways were associated with improved recurrence-specific survival at higher morphine milligram equivalents, compared with unaltered pathways. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative opioid exposure is associated with worse overall survival, whereas ketamine exposure is associated with improved recurrence-specific survival in patients with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma. This is the first study to investigate tumour-specific genomic interactions with intraoperative opioid administration to modify survival associations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with chest wall invasion carries a high risk of recurrence and portends poor survival (30-40% and 20-50%, respectively). No studies have identified prognostic factors in patients who underwent R0 resection for non-superior sulcus NSCLC. METHODS A retrospective review was conducted for all chest wall resections for NSCLC from 2004 to 2018. Patients with superior sulcus tumours, partial (<1 rib) or incomplete (R1/R2) resection or distant metastasis were excluded. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Cox proportional hazards modelling was used to determine factors associated with DFS and OS. RESULTS A total of 100 patients met inclusion criteria. Seventy-three (73%) patients underwent induction therapy, and all but 12 (16%) patients experienced a partial radiological response. A median of 3 ribs was resected (range 1-7), and 67 (67%) patients underwent chest wall reconstruction. The 5-year DFS and OS were 36% and 45%, respectively. Pathological N2 status [hazard ratio (HR) 3.12, confidence interval (CI) 1.56-6.25; P = 0.001], intraoperative blood transfusion (HR 2.24, CI 1.28-3.92; P = 0.005) and preoperative forced vital capacity (per % forced vital capacity, HR 0.97, CI 0.96-0.99; P = 0.013) were associated with DFS. Increasing pathological stage, lack of radiological response to induction therapy (HR 7.35, CI 2.35-22.99; P = 0.001) and cardiovascular comorbidity (HR 2.43, CI 1.36-4.36; P = 0.003) were associated with OS. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrate that blood transfusion and forced vital capacity are associated with DFS after R0 resection for non-superior sulcus NSCLC, while radiological response to induction therapy greatly influences OS. We confirm that pathological nodal status and pathological stage are reproducible determinants of DFS and OS, respectively.

Abstract
9009 Background: The effectiveness of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at matching patients to life prolonging therapy has been studied mostly in small cohorts with limited follow up. The prognostic value of ctDNA alterations, particularly those absent on tissue, is also unclear. To address these questions, we studied survival outcomes in a prospective cohort of patients (N = 1002) with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Adults with metastatic or recurrent NSCLC were eligible if they had no known driver mutation or a known driver with progression following targeted therapy. Patients were enrolled at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) starting October 21, 2016; analysis here is from a snapshot November 1, 2020. All patients had ctDNA sequenced via the Resolution ctDx Lung platform. To reduce inclusion of incidental germline mutations, we excluded non-functionally significant mutations with an allele frequency 35-65% that were present in gnomAD. Patients could also receive, at their provider’s discretion, tissue sequencing with MSK-IMPACT, which filters germline and clonal hematopoietic (CH) mutations with matched white blood cell sequencing. We performed survival analyses using Cox proportional hazards models from time of diagnosis of advanced disease to death, left truncating at time of study entry. Results: Of 1002 patients, 348 (35%) were treated with targeted therapy; in 181 of these (52%) the targetable alteration was detected in ctDNA. Patients treated with targeted therapy had prolonged survival whether matched by tissue-based methods (HR 0.39, 95%CI 0.30-0.51) or ctDNA (HR 0.47, 95%CI 0.37-0.61). These benefits persisted across multiple subgroups. ctDNA alterations themselves were associated with worse survival (HR 2.2, 95%CI 1.8-2.8), in a manner that scaled with allele fraction and burden. Of 401 patients with time-matched tissue sampling, 62 (15%) had ctDNA alterations that were absent on IMPACT (“unique” ctDNA alterations). Three such patients had unique ctDNA EGFR T790M mutations leading to changes in therapy. However, unique ctDNA alterations were generally associated with worse survival than no ctDNA alterations (HR 2.5, 95%CI 1.7-3.7) and even tissue-matched ctDNA alterations (HR 1.7, 95%CI 1.1-2.4). Of 98 unique ctDNA mutations, 48 (49%) were detectable in tissue at subthreshold levels, 12 (12%) were filtered by IMPACT as CH or germline, and 38 mutations (39%) were absent even at subthreshold levels. ctDNA alteration burden correlated with radiographic disease extent. In multivariate models with radiographic disease extent and other clinical variables, ctDNA alterations were the strongest independent predictor of worse survival. Conclusions: Our results show that ctDNA may match patients to life-prolonging targeted therapy and have prognostic importance. ctDNA may provide data about a patient’s cancer missed by spatially restricted tissue sequencing. Clinical trial information: NCT01775072.

KRAS G12C Mutation Is Associated with Increased Risk of Recurrence in Surgically Resected Lung Adenocarcinoma. Clin Cancer Res 2021; 27:2604-2612. [PMID: 33593884 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.ccr-20-4772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2020] [Revised: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 02/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE KRAS G12C is the most common KRAS mutation in primary lung adenocarcinoma. Phase I clinical trials have demonstrated encouraging clinical activity of KRAS G12C inhibitors in the metastatic setting. We investigated disease-free survival (DFS) and tumor genomic features in patients with surgically resected KRAS G12C-mutant lung adenocarcinoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Patients who underwent resection of stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were evaluated. Exclusion criteria were receipt of induction therapy, incomplete resection, and low-quality NGS. Mutations were classified as KRAS wild-type (KRAS wt), G12C (KRAS G12C), or non-G12C (KRAS other). DFS was compared between groups using the log-rank test; factors associated with DFS were assessed using Cox regression. Mutual exclusivity and cooccurrence, tumor clonality, and mutational signatures were assessed. RESULTS In total, 604 patients were included: 374 KRAS wt (62%), 95 KRAS G12C (16%), and 135 KRAS other (22%). Three-year DFS was not different between KRAS-mutant and KRAS wt tumors. However, 3-year DFS was worse in patients with KRAS G12C than KRAS other tumors (log-rank P = 0.029). KRAS G12C tumors had more lymphovascular invasion (51% vs. 37%; P = 0.032) and higher tumor mutation burden [median (interquartile range), 7.0 (5.3-10.8) vs. 6.1 (3.5-9.7); P = 0.021], compared with KRAS other tumors. KRAS G12C mutation was independently associated with worse DFS on multivariable analysis. Our DFS findings were externally validated in an independent The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort. CONCLUSIONS KRAS G12C mutations are associated with worse DFS after complete resection of stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma. These tumors harbor more aggressive clinicopathologic and genomic features than other KRAS-mutant tumors. We identified a high-risk group for whom KRAS G12C inhibitors may be investigated to improve survival.

The American College of Surgeons Surgical Risk Calculator performs well for pulmonary resection: A validation study. J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2021; 163:1509-1516.e1. [PMID: 33610360 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2021.01.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2020] [Revised: 12/28/2020] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program Surgical Risk Calculator (NSQIP SRC) was developed to estimate the risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality within 30 days of an operation. We sought to externally evaluate the performance of the NSQIP SRC for patients undergoing pulmonary resection. METHODS Patients undergoing pulmonary resection at our center between January 2016 and December 2018 were included. Using data from our institution's prospectively maintained Society of Thoracic Surgeons General Thoracic Database, we identified 2514 patients. We entered requisite patient demographic information, preoperative risk factors, and procedural details into the online calculator. Predicted performance of the calculator versus observed outcomes was assessed by discrimination (concordance index [C-index]) and calibration. RESULTS The observed and predicted probabilities of any complication were 8.3% and 9.9%, respectively, and of serious complications were 7.4% and 9.2%, respectively. Observed and predicted 30-day mortality were 0.5% and 0.9%, respectively. The C-index for readmission was 0.644; the C-indices corresponding to all other outcomes in the NSQIP SRC ranged from 0.703 to 0.821. Calibration curves indicated excellent calibration for all binary end points, with the exception of renal failure (predicted underestimated observed probabilities), discharge to a nursing or rehabilitation facility (overestimated), and sepsis (overestimated). Correlation between predicted and observed length of stay was moderate (Spearman coefficient, 0.562), and calibration was good. CONCLUSIONS Except for readmission, renal failure, discharge to a location other than home, and sepsis, the NSQIP SRC can be used to reasonably predict postoperative complications in patients undergoing pulmonary resection.

Is Routine Chest Radiography Necessary After Endobronchial Ultrasound-guided Fine Needle Aspiration? Ann Thorac Surg 2020; 112:467-472. [PMID: 33096072 DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2020.08.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2020] [Revised: 07/28/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chest radiography is routinely performed after endobronchial ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EBUS-FNA) to detect clinically occult pneumothorax. Because the established rate of postprocedure pneumothorax is low, this study sought to determine whether routine chest radiography can be safely eliminated and to ascertain the potential cost reduction with its omission. METHODS Patients who underwent EBUS-FNA between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2018 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (New York, NY) were retrospectively identified. Patient-related factors were summarized using descriptive statistics. Outcomes were compared using the χ2, Fisher exact, and analysis of variance tests. Univariate regression analysis was used to identify factors predictive of postprocedure pneumothorax. RESULTS A total of 757 patients were included in the study: 72.4% (548 of 757) underwent routine chest radiography in the postanesthesia care unit. Clinically relevant or radiographically evident pneumothorax developed in 1.5% of patients (11 of 757). Of the patients who underwent chest radiography, 0.5% (3 of 548) required unplanned admission for postprocedure pneumothorax, and 0.2% (1 of 548) required tube thoracostomy. Of the 209 patients who did not undergo chest radiography, none experienced a clinically evident pneumothorax. In total, only 1 patient (0.1%) had symptomatic pneumothorax. The pneumothorax event rate was so low that no association with demographic or clinical factors and no predictive factors could be identified. The number of patients needed to be screened by chest radiography to identify 1 patient requiring deviation from routine management is 183. The potential total cost reduction if routine chest radiography had been eliminated was $33,950. CONCLUSIONS The extremely low rate of postprocedure pneumothorax precluded informative statistical analysis. Routine chest radiography after EBUS-FNA may not be necessary, and its omission may confer a cost savings.

External Validation of Surgical Risk Preoperative Assessment System in Pulmonary Resection. Ann Thorac Surg 2020; 112:228-237. [PMID: 33075325 DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2020.08.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2019] [Revised: 08/04/2020] [Accepted: 08/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate preoperative risk assessment is necessary for informed decision making for patients and surgeons. Several preoperative risk calculators are available but few have been examined in the general thoracic surgical patient population. The Surgical Risk Preoperative Assessment System (SURPAS), a risk-assessment tool applicable to a wide spectrum of surgical procedures, was developed to predict the risks of common adverse postoperative outcomes using a parsimonious set of preoperative input variables. We sought to externally validate the performance of SURPAS for postoperative complications in patients undergoing pulmonary resection. METHODS Between January 2016 and December 2018, 2514 patients underwent pulmonary resection at our center. Using data from our institution's prospectively maintained database, we calculated the predicted risks of 12 categories of postoperative outcomes using the latest version of SURPAS. Performance of SURPAS against observed patient outcomes was assessed by discrimination (concordance index) and calibration (calibration curves). RESULTS The discrimination ability of SURPAS was moderate across all outcomes (concordance indices, 0.640 to 0.788). Calibration curves indicated good calibration for all outcomes except infectious and cardiac complications, discharge to a location other than home, and mortality (all overestimated by SURPAS). CONCLUSIONS SURPAS demonstrates outcomes for pulmonary resections with reasonable predictive ability. Discretion should be applied when assessing risk for postoperative infectious and cardiac complications, discharge to a location other than home, and mortality. Although the parsimonious nature of SURPAS is one of its strengths, its performance might be improved by including additional factors known to influence outcomes after pulmonary resection, such as sex and pulmonary function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate preoperative risk assessment is critical for informed decision making. The Surgical Risk Preoperative Assessment System (SURPAS) and the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) Surgical Risk Calculator (SRC) predict risks of common postoperative complications. This study compares observed and predicted outcomes after pulmonary resection between SURPAS and NSQIP SRC. METHODS Between January 2016 and December 2018, 2514 patients underwent pulmonary resection and were included. We entered the requisite patient demographics, preoperative risk factors, and procedural details into the online NSQIP SRC and SURPAS formulas. Performance of the prediction models was assessed by discrimination and calibration. RESULTS No statistically significant differences were found between the 2 models in discrimination performance for 30-day mortality, urinary tract infection, readmission, and discharge to a nursing or rehabilitation facility. The ability to discriminate between a patient who will develop a complication and a patient who will not was statistically indistinguishable between NSQIP and SURPAS, except for renal failure. With a C index closer to 1.0, the NSQIP performed significantly better than the SURPAS SRC in discriminating risk of renal failure (C index, 0.798 vs 0.694; P = .003). The calibration curves of predicted and observed risk for each model demonstrate similar performance with a tendency toward overestimation of risk, apart from renal failure. CONCLUSIONS Overall, SURPAS and NSQIP SRC performed similarly in predicting outcomes for pulmonary resections in this large, single-center validation study with moderate to good discrimination of outcomes. Notably, SURPAS uses a smaller set of input variables to generate the preoperative risk assessment. The addition of thoracic-specific input variables may improve performance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to describe practice patterns of anesthetic management during pericardial window creation. DESIGN Retrospective observational cohort study. SETTING Single tertiary cancer center. PARTICIPANTS A total of 150 patients treated for cancer between 2011 and 2015 were included in the study. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The primary objective was to evaluate anesthetic management in pericardial window creation. Secondary outcomes were 30-day mortality and overall survival after pericardial window creation. Thirty-day mortality was 19.3%, and median survival was 5.84 months. Higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status of patients was associated with preinduction arterial line placement (51% ASA 3 v 79% ASA 4; p = 0.002) and use of etomidate for anesthetic induction (34% ASA 3 v 60% ASA 4; p = 0.003). However, there was no association between anesthetic management and presence of tamponade in these patients. Cardiac aspirate volume (per 10 mL: odds ratio [OR], 1.02 [95% CI, 1.0-1.04]; p = 0.026) and intraoperative arrhythmia (atrial fibrillation: OR, 6.76 [95% CI, 1.2-37.49]; p = 0.029; sinus tachycardia: OR, 4.59 [95% CI, 1.25-16.90]; p = 0.022) were associated independently with increased 30-day mortality. High initial heart rate (per 10 beats per minute: hazard ratio [HR], 1.18 [95% CI, 1.05-1.33]; p = 0.005) in the operating room and intraoperative sinus tachycardia (HR, 1.86 [95% CI, 1.15-3.03]; p = 0.012) were associated independently with worse overall survival. CONCLUSION Risk of death after pericardial window creation remains high in patients with cancer. Variations in anesthetic management did not affect survival in oncologic patients with pericardial effusions.

How Effective Is Neoadjuvant Therapy Followed by Surgery for Pathologic Single-Station N2 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer? Semin Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2020; 33:206-216.

Abstract
The optimal treatment strategy for pathologic single-station N2 (pN2a1) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)-surgery first followed by adjuvant treatment (SF) or neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery (NS)-remains unclear. We compared disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) after NS versus SF for pN2a1 NSCLC. We retrospectively identified patients with pN2a1 NSCLC resected between 2000 and 2018. Patients in the SF group had cN0 disease and were treated with surgery before adjuvant chemotherapy; patients in the NS group had known preoperative nodal disease, cN2 disease, and were treated with neoadjuvant therapy before surgery. The matching-weights procedure was applied to generate a cohort with similar characteristics between groups. DFS and OS were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier approach and compared between groups using weighted log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards models. We identified 227 patients with pN2a1 disease: 121 treated with SF and 106 with NS. After the matching-weights procedure, 5- and 10-year DFS were 45% and 27% for SF versus 26% and 21% for NS (log-rank P = 0.056; hazard ratio [HR], 1.61; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.98-2.65); 5- and 10-year OS were 49% and 30% for SF versus 43% and 20% for NS (log-rank P = 0.428; HR, 1.24; 95% CI, 0.67-2.28). SF and NS for pN2a1 NSCLC resulted in similar survival. A study comparing SF for known preresectional pN2a1 with occult pN2a1 disease could be a next step. Further investigation of SF for known N2a1 versus occult pN2a1 disease could power a clinical trial focused on N2a NSCLC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: KRAS is the most common oncogene in lung cancer, but has historically been considered undruggable. The recent development of mutant-selective KRAS G12C inhibitors has for the first time created potential therapeutic opportunities for this unmet need. Simultaneously, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is increasingly being used to detect targetable oncogenes in patients with metastatic lung cancers. There is limited data regarding the utility of plasma ctDNA in specifically identifying KRAS G12C mutations.
Methods: Plasma was collected from 599 patients with lung cancer seen at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center between 10/2016 and 1/2019. ctDNA sequencing was performed using the ctDX-Lung Assay (Resolution Bioscience; Kirkland, WA). Tissue DNA sequencing was carried out using the MSK-IMPACT assay.
Results: Mutations in KRAS (KRAS+) were detected in 129 patients (21.5%). Of patients with KRAS+ lung cancers, 116 had metastatic disease at the time of plasma testing. Plasma testing was carried out within 90 days of metastatic diagnosis in 92 of the 116 metastatic KRAS+ patients (79.3%), of whom 66 patients had both plasma and tissue sequencing available for comparison. 59 of the 66 patients (89.4%) had not had systemic treatment at the time of plasma testing. Average turn-around-time (TAT) for ctDNA testing in this cohort of 66 patients was 10 days, while average TAT for tissue sequencing was 22 days. ctDNA detected a KRAS mutation in 48 of the 66 patients (72.7%). A G12C mutation was found in the tissue and/or blood from 29 patients (43.9%), while 37 patients (56.1%) had other KRAS mutations. In one patient with a G12C mutation detected on plasma testing, no KRAS mutation or other known oncogenic drivers were found on tissue testing, though with limited tumor cells in the tissue sample. 75.6% of the patients with G12C mutations had KRAS detectable in the plasma, as compared to 70.3% of patients with other KRAS mutations (p=0.6). Within the cohort of patients with paired tissue and plasma testing, at a median follow-up of 202 days post-metastatic diagnosis, survival was longer in those patients without detectable KRAS in the plasma as compared to those patients with detectable plasma KRAS (log rank (Mantel-Cox), p<0.001, log rank HR 7.9, 95% CI: 3.7-16.8).
Conclusion: Plasma testing was able to rapidly detect KRAS G12C mutations in the majority of patients with this alteration, which may guide G12C inhibitor therapy. In our cohort, patients that shed KRAS mutant DNA into the plasma had shorter survival.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The purpose of the study is to genomically characterize the biology and related therapeutic opportunities of prognostically important predominant histologic subtypes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). METHODS We identified 604 patients with stage I to III LUAD who underwent complete resection and targeted next-generation sequencing using the Memorial Sloan Kettering-Integrated Mutation Profiling of Actionable Cancer Targets platform. Tumors were classified according to predominant histologic subtype and grouped by architectural grade (lepidic [LEP], acinar or papillary [ACI/PAP], and micropapillary or solid [MIP/SOL]). Associations among clinicopathologic factors, genomic features, mutational signatures, and recurrence were evaluated within subtypes and, when appropriate, quantified using competing-risks regression, with adjustment for pathologic stage and extent of resection. RESULTS MIP/SOL tumors had higher tumor mutational burden (p < 0.001), fraction of genome altered (p = 0.001), copy number amplifications (p = 0.021), rate of whole-genome doubling (p = 0.008), and number of oncogenic pathways altered ( p < 0.001) as compared with LEP and ACI/PAP tumors. Across all tumors, mutational signatures attributed to APOBEC activity were associated with the highest risk of postresection recurrence: SBS2 (p = 0.021) and SBS13 (p = 0.005). Three oncogenic pathways (p53, Wnt, Myc) were altered with statistical significance in MIP/SOL tumors. Compared with LEP and ACI/PAP tumors, MIP/SOL tumors had a higher frequency of targetable BRAF-V600E mutations (p = 0.046). Among ACI/PAP tumors, alterations in the cell cycle (p < 0.001) and PI3K (p = 0.002) pathways were associated with recurrence; among MIP/SOL tumors, only PI3K alterations were associated with recurrence (p = 0.049). CONCLUSIONS These results provide the first in-depth assessment of tumor genomic profiling of predominant LUAD histologic subtypes, their associations with recurrence, and their correlation with targetable driver alterations in patients with surgically resected LUAD.

Abstract
9067 Background: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive disease, characterized by inevitable chemotherapy resistance and rapid progression. We hypothesized that circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis can rapidly identify sensitivity to platinum-based therapy. Methods: Patients with SCLC at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center underwent serial plasma collections, including prior to the start of treatment and prior to Cycle 2 Day 1 of therapy (C2D1). Tumor mutations were identified from pre-treatment biopsies by MSK-IMPACT and/or pre-treatment plasma by CAncer Personalized Profiling by deep Sequencing (CAPP-Seq). Median variant allele fraction (VAF) of all mutations was monitored on subsequent blood draws using CAPP-Seq. Progression free survival (PFS) was measured from the time of first pre-treatment blood draw. Results: Plasma was collected from 19 patients treated with carboplatin and etoposide, including three who received concurrent atezolizumab. Seven were female, and mean age was 64.5 years. ctDNA was detected in 17 patients (89%), including in the two patients in our series with limited stage disease. The most common mutations were in TP53 and RB1 in 14 and 6 patients, respectively. Fourteen patients had available plasma at C2D1. At baseline prior to treatment, median VAF did not differ significantly between radiologic responders and non-responders (9.4% versus 30.3%, p = 0.35). After one cycle of chemotherapy, the VAF percent decrease was significantly more in responders versus non-responders (-96.9% versus -10.3%, p < 0.001). Median VAF was therefore significantly lower by C2D1 in patients who responded compared to non-responders (0.51% versus 27.2%, p = 0.02). Those who ultimately responded to therapy all had a > 2 fold decrease in VAF by C2D1. With a median follow-up of 180 days, PFS was significantly longer in patients with > 2 fold decrease in VAF by C2D1 (6.4 versus 1.9 months, log rank p < 0.001). Conclusions: A 2-fold decrease in plasma VAF by C2D1 predicted platinum-sensitivity in SCLC and was associated with longer PFS. ctDNA may permit early assessment of benefit and expedite alternative treatment options for those without significant decrease in median VAF after one cycle of therapy.

Abstract
4554 Background: Induction chemotherapy with PET-directed CRT and surgery is the standard treatment for locally advanced EA at our institution. Following results of the CALGB 80803 trial, FOLFOX has recently replaced CP as the preferred induction regimen. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated patients with locally advanced EA treated with induction CP vs FOLFOX, followed by trimodality therapy between January 2010 and June 2019. Patients treated with CP with RT followed by surgery without induction chemo were also included. We compared pathological complete response (pCR) and near pCR (ypN0 with ≥90% response) rates in the induction FOLFOX group to the induction CP and no-induction groups. Univariable and multivariable analyses were used to adjust for confounding factors. Disease-free survival (DFS) was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared between groups using max-combo weighted log rank test. Results: 445 patients were included. Patients in the induction FOLFOX group had significantly higher pCR and near pCR rates vs induction CP patients. Notably, pCR rate was 38% among FOLFOX PET responders vs 19% in non-responders. In multivariable analysis, compared to induction CP, induction FOLFOX administration was an independent predictor of near pCR (OR: 2.22, 95%CI: 1.20-4.20, p = 0.012). Compared to 24% pCR rate among no-induction patients, induction FOLFOX pCR rate was slightly higher at 32%. DFS by 2-years was higher in induction FOLFOX compared to no-induction-treated patients (62% vs. 42%, p = 0.05). Postoperative complication rates were similar among the three groups. Conclusions: PET-directed CRT with FOLFOX instead of CP improves pCR and near pCR rates. Improved DFS was observed in the FOLFOX vs no-induction patients. Longer follow-up is needed to confirm any survival benefits. [Table: see text]
