J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2024; 150:409. [PMID: 39230677 PMCID: PMC11374817 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-024-05931-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/22/2024] [Indexed: 09/05/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) of the lungs is a rare subtype of lung adenocarcinoma with a limited understanding of its prognosis, particularly in advanced stages. This study aimed to assess the prognosis of patients with advanced IMA by focusing on treatment modalities. METHODS This single-center retrospective study evaluated 33 patients with IMAs diagnosed with advanced-stage disease or disease progression after curative treatment between 2011 and 2021. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS), and the secondary outcome was progression-free survival (PFS). OS and PFS were calculated from the date of the diagnosis of advanced IMA. RESULTS The study cohort included 13 patients at the initial advanced stage and 20 patients who progressed after curative treatment. Treatment modalities included conventional chemotherapy in 24 patients (72.7%), targeted therapy in seven (21.2%), immunotherapy in 13 (39.4%), and local ablative therapy (LAT) in 13 (39.4%). The median OS was 32 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.9-61.0), with LAT significantly associated with improved OS compared to non-LAT treatment (not reached vs. 11.3 months, p = 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in OS based on conventional chemotherapy (p = 0.396), targeted therapy (p = 0.655), or immunotherapy (p = 0.992). In multivariate analysis, LAT remained an independent prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio, 0.125; 95% CI, 0.026-0.608; p = 0.01). PFS was 8.6 months (95% CI, 3.6-13.7), with no significant differences observed among the treatment modalities. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that LAT may provide favorable survival outcomes in patients with advanced IMA.

Abstract
Oligometastatic disease (OMD) defines a cancer status that is intermediate between localized and widely spread metastatic disease, and can be treated with curative intent. While diagnostic imaging tools have considerably improved in recent years, unidentified micrometastases can still evade current detection techniques, allowing the disease to progress. The various OMD scenarios are mainly defined by the number of metastases, the biological and molecular tumour profiles, and the timing of the development of metastases. Increasing knowledge has contributed to the earlier and improved detection of OMD, underlining the importance of early disease control. In view of increasing OMD detection rates in current real-world clinical practice and the lack of standardized evidence-based guidelines to treat this cancer status, a board of experts from the Spanish Societies of Radiation Oncology (SEOR) and Medical Oncology (SEOM) organized a series of sessions to update the current state-of-the-art on OMD from a multidisciplinary perspective, and to discuss how results from clinical studies might translate into promising treatment options. This expert review series summarizes what is known and what it is pending clarification in the context of OMD in the scenarios of non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer (Part I), and prostate cancer and colorectal cancer (Part II), aiming to offer specialists a pragmatic framework to help improve patient management.

Abstract
Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at stage IV have typically been considered incurable. Nonetheless, there is growing evidence that certain patient groups with fewer metastases, or so-called oligometastatic disease, which may have a more indolent biological nature than widespread metastatic diseases, may survive longer if definitive local treatment is administered to all metastatic sites. According to several retrospective investigations, this subgroup had a better prognosis than other stage IV patients, and the eighth edition of TNM staging was revised to reflect these findings. As a result of rapidly emerging systemic therapies, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors and a growing number of targeted therapies, more patients with this uncommon clinical opportunity have been identified and have received greater clinical attention. Currently, there is no established protocol for the management of oligometastatic disease, and the majority of therapeutic decisions are made through multidisciplinary discussion. In addition to systemic treatment, the two primary local therapeutic options for oligometastatic diseases are surgery and radiotherapy. A few phase 2 trials suggest that aggressive local ablative therapy may significantly improve the prognosis of patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. This review summarizes the most recent data on the management of oligometastatic NSCLC, with a focus on the prognostic significance of local ablative therapy in these patients.

Abstract
Background We reviewed the clinical outcomes of patients with oligometastatic (OM) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received multimodal therapy including lung surgery. Methods We retrospectively analyzed 117 patients with OM NSCLC who underwent complete resection of the primary tumor from 2014 to 2017. Results The median follow-up duration was 2.91 years (95% confidence interval, 1.48-5.84 years). The patients included 73 men (62.4%), and 76 patients (64.9%) were under the age of 65 years. Based on histology, 97 adenocarcinomas and 14 squamous cell carcinomas were included. Biomarker analysis revealed that 53 patients tested positive for epidermal growth factor receptor, anaplastic lymphoma kinase, or ROS1 mutations, while 36 patients tested negative. Metastases were detected in the brain in 74 patients, the adrenal glands in 12 patients, bone in 5 patients, vertebrae in 4 patients, and other locations in 12 patients. Radiation therapy for organ metastasis was performed in 81 patients and surgical resection in 27 patients. The 1-year overall survival (OS) rate in these patients was 82.8%, and the 3- and 5-year OS rates were 52.6% and 37.2%, respectively. Patients with positive biomarker test results had 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates of 98%, 64%, and 42.7%, respectively. These patients had better OS than those with negative biomarker test results (p=0.031). Patients aged ≤65 years and those with pT1-2 cancers also showed better survival (both p=0.008). Conclusion Surgical resection of primary lung cancer is a viable treatment option for selected patients with OM NSCLC in the context of multimodal therapy.

Abstract
In the case of synchronous metastatic disease, the local treatment of primary tumors by radiotherapy has long been reserved for palliative indications. The emergence of the concept of oligometastatic and oligopersistent diseases, the advent of new systemic therapies enabling longer overall survival with an enhanced quality of life, a better understanding of the biologic history of metastatic spread, and technical advances in radiation therapy are revolutionizing the management of patients with de novo metastatic cancer. The prognosis of these patients has been markedly improved and many studies have investigated the survival benefits from the local treatment of various primary tumors in cases of advanced disease at the time of diagnosis or in the case of oligopersistence. This article provides an update on the place of irradiation of the primary tumor in cancer with synchronous metastases, and discusses its interest through published or ongoing trials.

Abstract
IntroductionThe efficacy of immunotherapy for treatment of patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at different metastatic sites remains controversial. We investigated the effect of different metastatic sites on immunotherapy for oligometastatic NSCLC following local treatment (LT).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed patients with oligometastatic NSCLC from the latest 2018 registry on the SEER Stat software (8.3.9. Version) and a Chinese single-center cohort. The effects of immunotherapy on OS (overall survival) and CSS (cancer specific survival) were estimated for patients with different metastatic sites.ResultsA total of 483 patients in the SEER-18 database and 344 patients in the single-center cohort were included. Immunotherapy was significantly correlated with improved OS (SEER: Hazard ratio 0.754, 95% CI 0.609–0.932; P=0.044; China: Hazard ratio 0.697, 95% CI 0.542–0.896; P=0.005) and CSS (SEER: Hazard ratio 0.743, 95% CI 0.596–0.928; P=0.009; China: Hazard ratio 0.725, 95% CI 0.556–0.945; P=0.018). Subgroup analysis showed that OS was improved after immunotherapy in the BRM (SEER: Hazard ratio 0.565, 95% CI 0.385–0.829; P=0.004; China: Hazard ratio 0.536, 95% CI 0.312–0.920; P=0.024) and MOM (SEER: Hazard ratio 0.524, 95% CI 0.290–0.947; P=0.032; China: Hazard ratio 0.469, 95% CI 0.235–0.937; P=0.032) subgroups, but not in the BOM (SEER: P=0.334; China: P=0.441), LIM (SEER: P=0.301; China: P=0.357), or OTM (SEER: P=0.868; China: P=0.489) subgroups.ConclusionsThis study showed that immunotherapy conferred survival benefits on patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. Our subgroup analysis suggested that patients with oligometastatic NSCLC in the brain or multiple organs may particularly benefit from aggressive front-line therapies.

Abstract
Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer encompasses a number of distinct clinical scenarios with a pattern of limited tumour burden on imaging. Delivering local ablative therapy to individual metastatic lesions may assist in disease modification and contribute to improved outcomes. We review the published randomised clinical trials that support the implementation of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy as a standard of care in certain oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer clinical scenarios, and highlight the current knowledge gaps and areas of ongoing research.

Abstract
In the last 20 years, significant strides have been made in our understanding of the biological mechanisms driving disease pathogenesis in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Notably, the development and application of predictive biomarkers as well as refined treatment regimens in the form of chemoimmunotherapy and novel targeted agents have led to substantial improvements in survival. Parallel to these remarkable advancements in modern systemic therapy has been a growing recognition of "oligometastatic disease" as a distinct clinical entity-defined by the presence of a controlled primary tumor and ≤5 sites of metastatic disease amenable to local consolidative therapy (LAT), with surgery or stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR). To date, three randomized studies have provided clinical evidence supporting the use of LAT/SABR in the treatment of oligometastatic NSCLC. In this review, we summarize clinical evidence from these landmark studies and highlight ongoing trials evaluating the use of LAT/SABR in a variety of clinical contexts along the oligometastatic disease spectrum. We discuss important implications and caveats of the available data, including considerations surrounding patient selection and application in routine clinical practice. We conclude by offering potential avenues for further investigation in the oligometastatic disease space.

Risk Prediction Model for Synchronous Oligometastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Thoracic Radiotherapy May Not Prolong Survival in High-Risk patients. Front Oncol 2022; 12:897329.

Abstract
Background and Purpose On the basis of the promising clinical study results, thoracic radiotherapy (TRT)1 has become an integral part of treatment of synchronous oligometastatic non–small cell lung cancer (SOM-NSCLC). However, some of them experienced rapid disease progression after TRT and showed no significant survival benefit. How to screen out such patients is a more concerned problem at present. In this study, we developed a risk-prediction model by screening hematological and clinical data of patients with SOM-NSCLC and identified patients who would not benefit from TRT. Materials and Methods We investigated patients with SOM-NSCLC between 2011 and 2019. A formula named Risk-Total was constructed using factors screened by LASSO-Cox regression analysis. Stabilized inverse probability treatment weight analysis was used to match the clinical characteristics between TRT and non-TRT groups. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Results We finally included 283 patients divided into two groups: 188 cases for the training cohort and 95 for the validation cohort. Ten prognostic factors included in the Risk-Total formula were age, N stage, T stage, adrenal metastasis, liver metastasis, sensitive mutation status, local treatment status to metastatic sites, systemic inflammatory index, CEA, and Cyfra211. Patients were divided into low- and high-risk groups based on risk scores, and TRT was found to have improved the OS of low-risk patients (46.4 vs. 31.7 months, P = 0.083; 34.1 vs. 25.9 months, P = 0.078) but not that of high-risk patients (14.9 vs. 11.7 months, P = 0.663; 19.4 vs. 18.6 months, P = 0.811) in the training and validation sets, respectively. Conclusion We developed a prediction model to help identify patients with SOM-NSCLC who would not benefit from TRT, and TRT could not improve the survival of high-risk patients.

Abstract
The management of patients with advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) has undergone major changes in recent years. On the one hand, improved sensitivity of diagnostic tests, both radiological and endoscopic, has altered the way patients are staged. On the other hand, the arrival of new drugs with antitumoral activity, such as targeted therapies or immunotherapy, has changed the prognosis of patients, improving disease control and prolonging survival. Finally, the development of radiotherapy and surgical and interventional radiology techniques means that radical ablative treatments can be performed on metastases in any location in the body. All of these advances have impacted the treatment of patients with advanced lung cancer, especially in a subgroup of these patients in which all of these treatment modalities converge. This poses a challenge for physicians who must decide upon the best treatment strategy for each patient, without solid evidence for one optimal mode of treatment in this patient population. The aim of this article is to review, from a practical and multidisciplinary perspective, published evidence on the management of oligometastatic NSCLC patients. We evaluate the different alternatives for radical ablative treatments, the role of primary tumor resection or radiation, the impact of systemic treatments, and the therapeutic sequence. In short, the present document aims to provide clinicians with a practical guide for the treatment of oligometastatic patients in routine clinical practice.

Survival Benefits for Pulmonary Adenocarcinoma With Malignant Pleural Effusion After Thoracoscopic Surgical Treatment: A Real-World Study. Front Oncol 2022; 12:843220. [PMID: 35600389 PMCID: PMC9117620 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.843220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2021] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
ObjectivesMalignant cells in the pleural fluid or pleural metastasis are classified as stage IV non-small cell lung cancer. Radical surgery is generally considered not suitable for such patients. The aim of our study was to discuss the effectiveness of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in such patients.MethodsA retrospective analysis of the clinical records of 195 patients was performed. These patients were all diagnosed with locally advanced pulmonary adenocarcinomas with malignant pleural effusion (MPE, M1a) but no distant organ metastasis. The 195 patients included 96 patients who underwent VATS plus chemotherapy and 99 patients who received thoracic drainage plus chemotherapy. The baseline characteristics of the patients included age, gender, smoking history, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, and number of chemotherapy cycles (2–4 cycles or >4 cycles); we also analyzed clinical characteristics including the specific surgical options of the VATS group.ResultsIn multivariate analysis, when compared to the thoracic drainage group, the VATS group remained significantly associated with the overall survival [HR=0.480 (95%CI 0.301-0.765)]; when compared to the lobectomy, the sub-lobectomy and the palliative surgery, remained significantly associated with the overall survival [HR=0.637 (95%CI 0.409-0.993) and HR=0.548 (95%CI 0.435-0.832), respectively]. The median survival time (MST) of patients who underwent VATS (n = 96, 49.2%) was 25 months (95% CI 22.373–27.627) whereas the patients who received thoracic drainage (n = 99, 50.8%) was 11 months (95% CI 9.978–12.022). For patients who underwent VATS, the MST of patients who received a lobectomy (n = 50, 52.1%) was 27 months (95% CI 22.432–31.568), the MST of patients who received a sub-lobectomy plus pleurodesis (n = 26, 27.1%) was 27 months (95% CI 19.157–34.843), and the MST of patients who received only pleurodesis (n = 20, 20.8%) was 12 months (95% CI 7.617–16.383).ConclusionFor pulmonary adenocarcinomas with MPE, receiving a lobectomy or sub-lobectomy plus pleurodesis with VATS was associated with improved survival compared with patients who only received thoracic drainage and chemotherapy. Our results and previously published data may justify the use of VATS for treating pulmonary adenocarcinomas with MPE.

Abstract
Introduction: The impact of diagnosis and treatment delay on outcomes in advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) is not well understood. In this study, we examined the effect of the length of time to the first chemotherapy treatment initiation and the other factors affecting overall survival. Methods: This retrospective study used data from the Institute of Clinical Evaluative Sciences and identified 4520 patients in Ontario who were diagnosed with stage IV NSCLC between 2007 and 2016, treated using chemotherapy. We adjusted the analysis for location (rural vs urban), gender, distance from the nearest cancer center, first chemotherapy treatment used, income, and age. Results: Type of the chemotherapy, length of time to the first treatment, and distance from the nearest cancer center had a statistically significant impact on survival. Paclitaxel was associated with decreased risk of death compared to vinorelbine (Hazard Ratio (HR)=0.835, 95%CI 0.753-0.925), gemcitabine (HR=0.916, 95%CI 0.998-0.826), and docetaxel (HR=0.771, 95%CI 0.994-0.513). Every additional 10 km distance from the nearest cancer center was associated with a 0.5% increased risk of death (HR=1.005, 95%CI 1.000-1.010). A longer time to the first treatment was associated with increased survival. In fact, every 10 days increase in wait time was associated with a 0.5% decrease in the risk of death (HR=0.995, 95%CI 0.993-0.998). Conclusion: Chemotherapy treatment using paclitaxel and living closer to the cancer center is associated with better survival. A longer time between diagnosis and treatment leading to better survival could perhaps be explained by patients on the "sicker" end of the spectrum receiving treatment sooner.

Abstract
Background Local treatment (LT) such as radiotherapy and metastasectomy on metastatic sites may improve outcomes in oligometastatic NSCLC patients, but more data are necessary to support LT in oligometastatic diseases. Patients with single extrathoracic metastatic lesion are more likely to benefit from local therapy. In this study, we evaluated the impact of LT in NSCLC patients with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion. Methods Data were obtained from the Korean Association for Lung Cancer Registry (KALC‐R), a database created using a retrospective sampling survey by the Korean Central Cancer Registry (KCCR) and the Lung Cancer Registration Committee. Results A total of 787 NSCLC patients with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion were evaluated. In the multivariate analysis for OS, age, female sex, poor performance score, squamous histological subtype, LT, and initial treatment modality showed significant associations. Regarding LT, groups that underwent curative LT were significantly associated with better OS compared to groups that did not undergo LT (p = 0.011, HR 0.448, 95% CI: 0.242–0.829). In the multivariate analysis of patients who underwent LT, poor performance score, initial treatment modality, and T stage were independently associated with poor OS. Compared to the T1 stage, T3 stage showed an HR of 2.470 (95% CI: 1.309–4.663; p = 0.005) and T4 stage showed an HR of 2.063 (95% CI: 1.093–3.904; p = 0.026). Conclusion In NSCLC with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion, LT, especially for curative purposes, has an independent association with OS. Moreover, among the patients who received LT, factors such as T stage, poor performance score, and initial treatment modality were significantly associated with OS.

Role of Radiosurgery and Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Oligometastatic Non-Oncogene Addicted NSCLC. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14061465. [PMID: 35326616 PMCID: PMC8946847 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14061465] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Local ablative therapy (LAT), intended as stereotactic ablative radiotherapy or stereotactic radiosurgery, is a well-recognized effective treatment for selected patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. Current clinical evidence supports LAT alone or in combination with systemic therapies. Our retrospective mono-institutional study aims to assess the role of LAT with a peculiar focus on the largest series of non-oncogene addicted oligometastatic NSCLC patients to date. We included in this analysis all patients with the mentioned disease characteristics who underwent LAT for intracranial and/or extracranial metastases between 2011 and 2020. The main endpoints were local control (LC), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in the whole population and after stratification for prognostic factors. We identified a series of 245 consecutive patients (314 lesions), included in this analysis (median age 69 years). In 77% of patients, a single metastasis was treated with LAT and intracranial involvement was the most frequent indication (53% of patients) in our series. The overall response rate (ORR) after LAT was 95%. In case of disease progression, 66 patients underwent new local treatments with curative intent. With a median follow-up of 18 months, median PFS was 13 months (1-year PFS 50%) and median OS was 32 months (1-year OS 75%). The median LC was not reached (1-year LC 89%). The presence of brain metastases was the only factor that negatively affected all clinical endpoints, with a 1-year LC, PFS and OS of 82%, 29% and 62% respectively, compared to 95%, 73% and 91%, respectively, for patients without BMs (p < 0.001 for each endpoint). At the multivariate analysis, mediastinal nodal involvement at baseline (p = 0.049), ECOG PS = 1 (p = 0.011), intracranial disease involvement (p = 0.001), administration of chemotherapy in combination with LAT (p = 0.020), and no delivery of further local treatment for progression or delivery of focal treatment for intracranial progression (p < 0.001) were related to a poorer OS. In our retrospective series, which is to our knowledge the largest to date, LAT showed encouraging results and confirmed the safety and effectiveness of focal treatments in non-oncogene addicted oligometastatic NSCLC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) is recommended as the first-line therapy for patients with EGFR-mutant metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Yet, resistance often occurs in 1 year after therapy and most progressions occur at the initial sites of disease. Addition of local therapy to the first-line TKI therapy may delay the progression and provide survival benefit to the patients. METHODS From 2010 to 2017, metastatic NSCLC patients with EGFR activating mutations who received first-line TKI and relatively radical local therapy (RRLT) were reviewed. RRLT was defined as local curative therapy to the main site or any intensity of local therapy to all sites of disease. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used for survival estimation and comparison. RESULTS A total of 45 patients were included in this retrospective study with a median follow-up of 48.0 months. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) was 17.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 14.6-19.3) and 55.0 months (95% CI: 49.3-60.6), respectively. Univariate analysis indicated that age ⩽ 60 years (P = .019), first-line TKI duration ⩾ 10 months (P = .028), and accumulated TKI duration ⩾ 20 months (P = .016) were significantly associated with favorable OS. Among the 36 patients who progressed during the follow-up, 55.8% of the progressions occurred at the new sites. RRLT combined with TKI did not show any severe toxicity to the patients. CONCLUSIONS Combined application of RRLT and first-line TKI may improve the survival and alter the pattern of failure for metastatic NSCLC patients with EGFR activating mutations.

Abstract
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a form of radiation therapy (RT) in which a small number of high doses of radiation are delivered to a target volume using highly sophisticated equipment. Stereotactic body radiation therapy is crucial in two cancer stages: early primary cancer and oligometastatic disease, with the goal of inducing complete cancer remission in both. This treatment method is commonly used to treat a variety of disease types. Over the years, a growing body of clinical evidence on the use of SBRT for the treatment of primary and metastatic tumors has accumulated, with efficacy and safety demonstrated in randomized clinical trials. This article will review the technical and clinical aspects of SBRT according to disease type and clinical indication.

Local consolidative therapy for synchronous oligometastatic non‐small cell lung cancer treated with first‐line pembrolizumab: A retrospective observational study. Thorac Cancer 2022; 13:732-741. [PMID: 35060346 PMCID: PMC8888157 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Revised: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Local consolidative therapy (LCT) has emerged as a treatment option in patients with oligometastatic non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) undergoing chemotherapy or targeted therapy. However, the current literature lacks evidence as to whether LCT improves survival in NSCLC patients receiving immunotherapy. Our study aimed to assess whether LCT combined with pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy could improve the survival of patients with synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC. Methods Patients with NSCLC, without EGFR or ALK genetic aberrations, who were treated with first‐line pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy, were included in the study. Survival analysis of the LCT and non‐LCT groups was compared. Results A total of 231 patients were included in the study. The median follow‐up time was 15.24 months. Median progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of the entire cohort were 12.00 and 23.43 months, respectively. Of the 231 patients included, 76 patients received LCT combined with pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy (LCT group) while 155 patients received pembrolizumab ± chemotherapy alone (non‐LCT group). Of note, the PFS of the LCT and non‐LCT groups was 13.97 and 10.08 months (p = 0.016), respectively. The OS were 30.67 and 21.97 months (p = 0.011), respectively. The PFS and OS were significantly improved with LCT for patients with brain or lung metastases but not bone metastases. No significant increase in treatment‐related toxicity was observed in the LCT group. Conclusions The present study shows that LCT to metastatic sites is an option for consideration in patients with synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC during first‐line pembrolizumab treatment, with significantly improved PFS and OS compared with systemic treatment alone.

Wang P, Yin T, Zhao K, Yu J, Teng F. Efficacy of single-site radiotherapy plus PD-1 inhibitors vs PD-1 inhibitors for oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2021; 148:1253-1261. [PMID: 34812931 PMCID: PMC9015982 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-021-03849-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 10/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Growing numbers of clinical trials test the efficacy of radiotherapy (RT) plus immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), but the number of irradiated sites is not uniform. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of single-site RT plus immunotherapy in oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with smaller disease burdens and low tumor heterogeneity. METHODS We retrospectively identified oligometastatic NSCLC (< 4 metastatic sites) patients treated with PD-1 pathway inhibitors with or without RT to a single lesion in our institution between 2018 and 2020. The primary endpoints were the best objective response rate (ORR) and progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Of the 152 patients enrolled, 93 and 59 were identified as the ICI alone group and the ICI plus RT group, respectively. The addition of RT to ICI therapy significantly increased the best ORR from 31.2% to 50.8% (p = 0.015). The out-of-field (abscopal effect) response rate could reach 41.3% (95%CI 26.5%-56.1%) in the ICI plus RT group. Median PFS was 8.9 months (95%CI 4.7-13.1 months) with ICI alone versus 13.8 months (95%CI 9.5-18.1 months) with ICI plus radiotherapy (hazard ratio [HR] 0.556; p = 0.035). In an exploratory subgroup analysis of PFS, the addition of RT brought greater benefits in patients aged < 65 years (p = 0.016), patients with ECOG PS = 0 (p = 0.048), and patients with 1-2 metastatic sites (p = 0.024). No unexpected adverse events or significantly increased toxicities were observed in the experimental arm. CONCLUSION Single-site RT plus anti-PD-1 inhibitors significantly increased systemic responses and improved survival outcomes in oligometastatic NSCLC patients.

Evaluation of local aggressive lung therapy versus systemic therapy in oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. J Thorac Dis 2021; 13:5899-5910. [PMID: 34795938 PMCID: PMC8575811 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-21-957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2021] [Accepted: 08/13/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown the feasibility and effectiveness of local aggressive thoracic therapy (surgery and radiotherapy) for oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer compared with systemic therapy, but with small sample. This study aims to perform a pooled analysis to explore whether LT could improve outcomes of oligometastatic patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Methods Protocol of present study was registered on PROSPERO as number: CRD42021233095. PubMed, Embase and Web of knowledge were searched, and eligible studies investigating local therapy for non-small cell lung cancer with 1-5 metastases regardless of organs were included. Linear regression between survival and clinical characteristics were conducted. Hazard ratios of survival and adverse effects were merged. Pooled survival curves were carried out. Results Three randomized controlled trials and 5 cohort studies enrolling 499 patients were included. There was a trend that median overall survival declined with the increasing proportion of N2-3 positive patients in local therapy group, but with no statistical difference (P=0.09, R2=0.98). Undergoing local therapy for oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer achieved reduction of 47% and 60% in the risk of death and cancer progression (P<0.001), respectively. In subgroup analysis, patients receiving local therapy including surgery showed hazard ratio of 0.33 on progression-free survival and 0.55 of these excluding surgery. Patients receiving consolidative local therapy (local therapy after systemic therapy) obtained hazard ratios 0.33 and 0.45 on progression-free and overall survival vs. systemic therapy, respectively. Hazard ratios of those receiving upfront local therapy (local therapy first) were 0.62 and 0.68 on progression-free and overall survival vs. systemic therapy. Pooled survival analysis showed median overall and progression-free survival of local therapy (21.6 and 14 months) group were both longer than systemic one (14.3 and 6.5 months). Odds ratio of adverse effects were no difference between 2 groups (P=0.16). Conclusions Local aggressive thoracic therapy could prolong 7 months overall and progression-free survival compared with systemic therapy in patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Consolidative local therapy might be a more favorable choice of local therapy. Benefits of local therapy for N2-3 positive patients should explored further.

Results of Radiation Therapy as Local Ablative Therapy for Oligometastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13225773.

Abstract
Oligometastatic cancer is characterized by a limited number of metastatic deposits. Compared with lung cancer patients who have more widespread disease, oligometastatic lung cancer patients have more favorable survival outcomes. Therefore, it has been hypothesized that local ablative therapy (LAT) directed at the metastatic deposits in addition to standard-of-care systemic therapy may further improve survival outcomes in oligometastatic lung cancer patients. One LAT modality that has been utilized in oligometastatic lung cancer is radiation therapy. In particular, ultra-hypofractionated radiotherapy, also known as stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), has been shown to provide excellent local control with a favorable safety profile. Here, we reviewed the retrospective studies and prospective trials that have deployed radiation therapy as LAT in oligometastatic lung cancer, including randomized studies showing benefits for progression-free survival and overall survival with the addition of LAT. We also discuss the impact of targeted therapies and immunotherapy on radiation as LAT.

Abstract
Oligometastatic patients are a heterogeneous and yet not well-defined population. The actual definition identifies as oligometastatic, patients with 1-5 metastases in 1-3 different organs. However, only a proportion of these patients are "true" oligometastatic and therefore derive some kinds of benefit from local ablative approaches like stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR). Since SABR is an easily accessible, effective and well-tolerated treatment, it is widely employed in the oligometastatic scenarios, without a particular focus on selection criteria. However, it should be crucial to identify predictive and prognostic features that could be clinically implemented. Therefore, we conducted this narrative review of the available literature to summarize all clinical, radiomic, genetic and epigenetic features found to be predictive of overall survival, progression-free survival or local control of oligometastatic patients treated with SABR.

Abstract
Objective In this review, the concept of (synchronous) oligometastatic disease in patients with non-oncogene-driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will be placed in the context of tumor biology and metastatic growth patterns. We will also provide considerations for clinical practice and future perspectives, which will ultimately lead to better patient selection and oligometastatic disease outcome. Background The treatment landscape of metastasized NSCLC has moved from "one-size fits all" to a personalized approach. Prognosis has traditionally been poor but new treatment options, such as immunotherapy and targeted therapy, brighten future perspectives. Another emerging development is the recognition of patients with so-called "oligometastatic" state of disease. Oligometastatic disease has been recognized as a distinct clinical presentation in which the tumor is stated to be early in its evolution of metastatic potential. It is suggested that this stage of disease has an indolent course, comes with a better prognosis and therefore could be considered for radical multimodality treatment. Methods Narrative overview of the literature synthesizing the findings of literature retrieved from searches of computerized databases, hand searches, and authoritative texts. Conclusions Oligometastatic NSCLC is a broad spectrum disease, with a variable prognosis. Although the biology and behavior of "intermediate state" of metastatic disease are not fully understood, there is evidence that a subgroup of patients can benefit from local radical treatment when integrated into a multimodality regime. The consensus definition of oligometastatic NSCLC, including accurate staging, may help to uniform future trials. The preferable treatment strategy seems to sequential systemic treatment with subsequent local radical treatment in patients with a partial response or stable disease. Prognostic factors such as N-stage, number and site of distant metastases, tumor volume, performance status, age, and tumor type should be considered. The local radical treatment strategy has to be discussed in a multidisciplinary team meeting, taking into account patient characteristics and invasiveness of the procedure. However, many aspects remain to be explored and learned about the cancer biology and characteristics of intermediate state tumors.

Abstract
Background To describe the incidence and the clinical characteristics of oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Oligometastatic NSCLC is gaining recognition as a clinical condition with a different prognosis compared to multi metastatic disease. Usually, four different scenarios of oligometastatic disease can be described but not epidemiological data are available. To date, it is difficult to delineate an exhaustive epidemiological scenario because no uniform or shared definition of oligometastatic status exists, even though a recent consensus defined synchronous oligometastatic disease as having a maximum of 5 metastases in 3 different organs. Methods A systematic review and a pooled analysis of literature were performed. Article selection was based on the following characteristics: focus on lung cancers; dealing with oligometastatic settings and providing a definition of oligometastatic disease; number of metastatic lesions with or without the number of organs involved; providing some incidence or clinical characteristics of oligometastatic NSCLC patients. Series focusing on a specific single metastatic organ were excluded. The research was launched in MEDLINE (OvidSP) in March 2020. Full articles were individually and collectively read by the authors according to the previous criteria. Each author inspected the reference list included in the eligible articles. If the selection criteria were recognized, the article was reviewed by all authors and then included. Data on patient clinical features were pooled together from 31 articles selected. Results A total number of 31 articles have been selected for the analysis. The following variables were extracted from the publications: (I) number of metastases, (II) number of organs involved, (III) number of patients, (IV) number and percentage of males and females, (V) number and percentage of squamous and non-squamous histology, (VI) T and N status and/or stage of primary disease for oligometastatic setting. The data collected have been analyzed according to the oligometastatic setting. Conclusions Oligometastatic status is globally identified as a different clinical condition from multi metastatic NSCLC, although the clinical characteristics were consistent in the general metastatic population, even with a lower-than-expected TN status. The brain and bones were the most frequent organs involved. Lacking consensus definition, these results must be interpreted cautiously and a prospective evaluation is urgently needed.

Abstract
Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been recognized as a unique, yet common, clinical entity over the past 2-3 decades. Numerous retrospective series and early phase single arm trials have demonstrated the efficacy and safety of aggressive approaches in select patients. In addition, results from recent randomized trials have demonstrated potential benefits of radiation therapy and surgery as a form of local ablative therapy (LAT) in prolonging disease-free survival and overall survival. However, more questions remain given the limitation of existing clinical evidence and the lack of well validated biomarkers. Advances in late stage randomized trials with biological correlatives may further clarify the role of LAT to assist with clinical decision making in treating patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. In this review, we discuss the clinical and biologic data surrounding patient selection for LAT in oligometastatic NSCLC, as well as future directions in prospective and translational studies.

Abstract
Oligometastatic (OM) disease is defined by a low metastatic tumor spread. OM non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment aims to improve the patient's prognosis and quality of life, in an attempt-to-cure objective. Oncogenic-driven metastatic NSCLC accounts for about 20-25% of NSCLCs, with an ever-increasing number of potentially druggable molecular alterations. Due to specific targeted therapy, the care and prognosis of mutated NSCLC is quite different from non-oncogenic-driven NSCLC. However, OM-NSCLC treatment guidelines do not specifically discuss oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC patients. We conducted a narrative review regarding retrospective and prospective studies published from inception to May 2020 dealing with oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC in order to: (I) describe the specific patterns of metastatic spread of oncogenic-driven NSCLC (i.e., bone and pleural tropism in EGFR mutated NSCLC and serous and brain metastases in ALK NSCLC); (II) review the low level of current evidence for local ablative therapy (LAT) strategies in patients with oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC, focusing on the benefit/risk of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and LATs combination and (III) present strategies to help to select the best candidate for an attempt-to-cure approach. Finally, the optimal strategy may be to introduce a targeted therapy, then treat all tumor sites with LAT, and finally continue TKI for unknown prolonged duration in an attempt to prolong progression free survival in most patients, improve overall survival for some patients, and potentially lead to a cancer cure for a few patients.

Abstract
Radiomic feature analysis has been shown to be effective at analyzing diagnostic images to model cancer outcomes. It has not yet been established how to best combine radiomic features in cancer patients with multifocal tumors. As the number of patients with multifocal metastatic cancer continues to rise, there is a need for improving personalized patient-level prognosis to better inform treatment. We compared six mathematical methods of combining radiomic features of 3,596 tumors in 831 patients with multiple brain metastases and evaluated the performance of these aggregation methods using three survival models: a standard Cox proportional hazards model, a Cox proportional hazards model with LASSO regression, and a random survival forest. Across all three survival models, the weighted average of the largest three metastases had the highest concordance index (95% confidence interval) of 0.627 (0.595–0.661) for the Cox proportional hazards model, 0.628 (0.591–0.666) for the Cox proportional hazards model with LASSO regression, and 0.652 (0.565–0.727) for the random survival forest model. This finding was consistent when evaluating patients with different numbers of brain metastases and different tumor volumes. Radiomic features can be effectively combined to estimate patient-level outcomes in patients with multifocal brain metastases. Future studies are needed to confirm that the volume-weighted average of the largest three tumors is an effective method for combining radiomic features across other imaging modalities and tumor types.

Abstract
Simple Summary Lung cancer is the most common primary malignancy that tends to metastasize to the brain. Owing to improved survival of lung cancer patients, the prevalence of brain metastases is a matter of growing concern. Brain radiotherapy remains the mainstay in the management of metastatic CNS disease. However, new targeted therapies such as the tyrosine kinase or immune checkpoint inhibitors have demonstrated intracranial activity and promising tumor response rates. Here, we review the current and emerging therapeutical strategies for brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer, both brain-directed and systemic, as well as the uncertainties that may arise from their combination. Abstract Approximately 20% patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) present with CNS spread at the time of diagnosis and 25–50% are found to have brain metastases (BMs) during the course of the disease. The improvement in the diagnostic tools and screening, as well as the use of new systemic therapies have contributed to a more precise diagnosis and prolonged survival of lung cancer patients with more time for BMs development. In the past, most of the systemic therapies failed intracranially because of the inability to effectively cross the blood brain barrier. Some of the new targeted therapies, especially the group of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have shown durable CNS response. However, the use of ionizing radiation remains vital in the management of metastatic brain disease. Although a decrease in CNS-related deaths has been achieved over the past decade, many challenges arise from the need of multiple and repeated brain radiation treatments, which carry along not insignificant risks and toxicity. The combination of stereotactic radiotherapy and systemic treatments in terms of effectiveness and adverse effects, such as radionecrosis, remains a subject of ongoing investigation. This review discusses the challenges of the use of radiation therapy in NSCLC BMs in view of different systemic treatments such as chemotherapy, TKIs and immunotherapy. It also outlines the future perspectives and strategies for personalized BMs management.

Abstract
More than half of all patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. A subset of these patients has oligometastatic disease, which exists in an intermediary state between locoregional and disseminated metastatic disease. In addition, some metastatic patients on systemic therapy may have limited disease progression, or oligoprogression. Historically, treatment of metastatic NSCLC was palliative in nature, with little expectation of long-term survival. However, an accumulation of evidence over the past 3 decades now demonstrates that local ablative therapy to sites of limited metastases or progression can improve patient outcomes for this complex disease. This review examines the evidence behind local ablative therapy in oligometastatic and oligoprogressive NSCLC, with a focus on surgery, stereotactic radiotherapy, and radiofrequency ablation.

Abstract
Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 35 to 40% of newly diagnosed cases of NSCLC. The oligometastatic state-≤5 extrathoracic metastatic lesions in ≤3 organs-is present in ~25% of patients with stage IV disease and is associated with markedly improved outcomes. We retrospectively identified patients with extrathoracic oligometastatic NSCLC who underwent primary tumor resection at our institution from 2000 to 2018. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Factors associated with EFS and OS were determined using Cox regression. In total, 111 patients with oligometastatic NSCLC underwent primary tumor resection; 87 (78%) had a single metastatic lesion. Local consolidative therapy for metastases was performed in 93 patients (84%). Seventy-seven patients experienced recurrence or progression. The five-year EFS was 19% (95% confidence interval (CI), 12-29%), and the five-year OS was 36% (95% CI, 27-50%). Factors independently associated with EFS were primary tumor size (hazard ratio (HR), 1.15 (95% CI, 1.03-1.29); p = 0.014) and lymphovascular invasion (HR, 1.73 (95% CI, 1.06-2.84); p = 0.029). Factors independently associated with OS were neoadjuvant therapy (HR, 0.43 (95% CI, 0.24-0.77); p = 0.004), primary tumor size (HR, 1.18 (95% CI, 1.02-1.35); p = 0.023), pathologic nodal disease (HR, 1.83 (95% CI, 1.05-3.20); p = 0.033), and visceral-pleural invasion (HR, 1.93 (95% CI, 1.10-3.40); p = 0.022). Primary tumor resection represents an important treatment option in the multimodal management of extrathoracic oligometastatic NSCLC. Encouraging long-term survival can be achieved in carefully selected patients, including those who received neoadjuvant therapy and those with limited intrathoracic disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Two-phase II randomised studies have shown a significant benefit of local consolidation therapy in oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This phase III randomised controlled trial (RCT) will evaluate the efficacy of local consolidation radiation therapy (RT) in oligometastases (OM) NSCLC after completion of initial systemic therapy. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a single-centre phase III RCT of OM NSCLC patients. One hundred and ninety patients will undergo 1:1 randomisation to either standard maintenance therapy (control arm) or local consolidation RT and standard maintenance therapy (experimental arm). Patients will be stratified into the number of OM sites (1-2 vs 3-5), nodal metastases (N0-N1 vs N2-N3) and presence or absence of brain metastases. Stereotactic body radiation therapy to all the oligometastatic sites and definitive RT to primary disease will be given in the experimental arm. The primary endpoint is overall survival and secondary endpoints include progression-free survival, local control of OM sites, new distant metastases free survival, objective response rate, toxicity and quality of life. Translation endpoint include circulating tumour cells and radiomics using texture analysis. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION All patients will be provided with a written informed consent form which needs to be signed before randomisation. The study is approved by the institutional ethics committee-II (project number 3445) and registered with Clinical Trials Registry-India, dated 21 April 2020. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER CTRI/2020/04/024761; Pre-Results.

Abdom Radiol (NY) 2021; 46:1171-1178. [PMID: 32945923 DOI: 10.1007/s00261-020-02743-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2020] [Revised: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 09/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the sensitivity, specificity, and complication rate of percutaneous adrenal biopsy in patients with known or suspected lung cancer. METHODS This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board at our institution as a retrospective analysis; therefore, the need for informed consent was waived. All percutaneous adrenal biopsies performed between April 1993 and May 2019 were reviewed. 357 of 582 biopsies were performed on 343 patients with known or suspected lung cancer (M:F 164:179; mean age 66 years). The biopsy results were classified into malignant, benign, or non-diagnostic. The final diagnosis was established by pathology (biopsy and/or surgical resection) or imaging follow-up on CT for at least 12 months following the biopsy. Patients with less than 12 months follow-up were excluded (n = 44). Complications were recorded. RESULTS The final diagnosis was metastatic lung cancer in 235 cases (77.8%), metastasis from an extrapulmonary primary in 2 cases (0.7%), pheochromocytoma in 2 cases (0.7%), and benign lesions in 63 cases (20.9%). Percutaneous adrenal gland biopsy had a sensitivity of 97% and specificity of 100% for lung cancer metastases. The non-diagnostic rate was 0.6%. Larger lesions were more likely to be malignant (p = 0.0000) and to be correctly classified as a lung metastasis (p = 0.025). The incidence of minor complications was 1.1%. There were no major complications. CONCLUSION Over 20% of adrenal lesions in patients with known or suspected lung cancer were not related to lung cancer. Percutaneous adrenal gland biopsy is a safe procedure, with high sensitivity and specificity for lung cancer metastases.

Prognostic Model to Predict Overall Survival for Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Treated With Chemotherapy Combined With Concurrent Radiation Therapy to the Primary Tumor: Analysis From Two Prospective Studies. Front Oncol 2021; 11:625688. [PMID: 33718191 PMCID: PMC7947813 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.625688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2020] [Accepted: 01/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose The role of radiotherapy, in addition to chemotherapy, has not been thoroughly determined in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of the study was to investigate the prognostic factors and to establish a model for the prediction of overall survival (OS) in metastatic NSCLC patients who received chemotherapy combined with the radiation therapy to the primary tumor. Methods The study retrospectively reviewed 243 patients with metastatic NSCLC in two prospective studies. A prognostic model was established based on the results of the Cox regression analysis. Results Multivariate analysis showed that being male, Karnofsky Performance Status score < 80, the number of chemotherapy cycles <4, hemoglobin level ≤120 g/L, the count of neutrophils greater than 5.8 ×109/L, and the count of platelets greater than 220 ×109/L independently predicted worse OS. According to the number of risk factors, patients were further divided into one of three risk groups: those having ≤ 2 risk factors were scored as the low-risk group, those having 3 risk factors were scored as the moderate-risk group, and those having ≥ 4 risk factors were scored as the high-risk group. In the low-risk group, 1-year OS is 67.7%, 2-year OS is 32.1%, and 3-year OS is 19.3%; in the moderate-risk group, 1-year OS is 59.6%, 2-year OS is 18.0%, and 3-year OS is 7.9%; the corresponding OS rates for the high-risk group were 26.2%, 7.9%, and 0% (P<0.001) respectively. Conclusion Metastatic NSCLC patients treated with chemotherapy in combination with thoracic radiation may be classified as low-risk, moderate-risk, or high-risk group using six independent prognostic factors. This prognostic model may help design the study and develop the plans of individualized treatment.

Abstract
Oligometastatic disease in lung cancer is not a rare condition as previously thought. Among 812 non-small cell lung cancer patients treated surgically with lung resection between October 2011 and October 2018 at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, Florence Nightingale Hospitals, Turkey, 28 patients (3.4%) had synchronous cranial metastases. We analyzed synchronous isolated cranial metastases patients treated by locally ablative treatments (surgery, radiotherapy, or both). Metastases existing at the diagnosis of primary cancer were considered as synchronous, and their treatment was performed before (at least 1 month) or after (for maximum 1 month) surgery of the primary lung lesion. Prognostic factors affecting survival are evaluated retrospectively to identify clinical factors predicting survival in an effort to better select patients for surgery. Patients having T1-T2 primary lung tumors, no mediastinal lymph node metastasis, receiving minor anatomical lung resection, receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, having single cranial metastasis, and receiving surgical cranial metastasectomy were found to have better survival. According to tumor histology, having adenocarcinoma, and not having lymphovascular or visceral pleura invasion correlated with better survival. Average survival time was 52.1 months and median survival was 32 months. The last mortality during the follow-up was at 24 months; cumulative survival was 48.3% at that time. Our study was designed to define the criteria for patients with oligometastatic disease who may benefit from lung resection.

Survival Impact of Aggressive Treatment and PD-L1 Expression in Oligometastatic NSCLC. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2021; 28:593-605.

Abstract
Background: Studies have shown that aggressive treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with oligometastatic disease improves the overall survival (OS) compared to a palliative approach and some immunotherapy checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), and T-Lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) inhibitors are now part of the standard of care for advanced NSCLC. However, the prognostic impact of PD-L1 expression in the oligometastatic setting remains unknown. Methods: Patients with oligometastatic NSCLC were identified from the patient database of the Centre hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal (CHUM). “Oligometastatic disease” definition chosen is one synchronous metastasis based on the M1b staging of the eight IASLC (The International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer) Classification (within sixth months of diagnosis) or up to three cerebral metastasis based on the methodology of the previous major phase II randomized study of Gomez et al. We compared the OS between patients receiving aggressive treatment at both metastatic and primary sites (Group A) and patients receiving non-aggressive treatment (Group B). Subgroup analysis was performed using tumor PD-L1 expression. Results: Among 643 metastatic NSCLC patients, we identified 67 patients with oligometastasis (10%). Median follow-up was 13.3 months. Twenty-nine patients (43%) received radical treatment at metastatic and primary sites (Group A), and 38 patients (57%) received non-aggressive treatment (Group B). The median OS (mOS) of Group A was significantly longer than for Group B (26 months vs. 5 months, p = 0.0001). Median progression-free survival (mPFS) of Group A was superior than Group B (17.5 months vs. 3.4 months, p = 0.0001). This difference was still significant when controlled for primary tumor staging: stage I (p = 0.316), stage II (p = 0.024), and stage III (p = 0.001). In the cohort of patients who were not treated with PD-L1 inhibitors, PD-L1 expression negatively correlated with mOS. Conclusions: Aggressive treatments of oligometastatic NSCLC significantly improve mOS and mPFS compared to a more palliative approach. PD-L1 expression is a negative prognostic factor which suggests a possible role for immunotherapy in this setting.

Abstract
The European Organization for Research on Treatment of Cancer Research published a consensus statement to establish the key criteria to define oligometastatic disease (OMD). According to those criteria, all lesions (both primary and metastatic) should be amenable to radical intent treatment with acceptable toxicity. Several retrospective studies have shown that adding local ablative therapy to the treatment of OMD improves outcomes; however, due to the diverse selection criteria and treatment strategies used in those studies, it is difficult to compare directly results to draw definitive conclusions. In recent years, prospective phase II trials, such as the SABR-COMET and "Oligomez" trials, have shown that stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) improves outcomes in patients with OMD. More recently, interim results of the randomised phase 3 SINDAS trial were reported at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology 2020 demonstrating that upfront SBRT added to systemic treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors yielded a significant benefit in both progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor-mutant oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. In the present editorial, we review the definition and historical context of advanced non-small cell lung cancer with OMD. In addition, we review the scientific evidence for local ablative therapy and SBRT and discuss the results of recently published prospective studies. We also discuss in depth the results of the SINDAS study, including the strengths and weaknesses of the study and the barriers to extrapolating these results to routine clinical practice.

Abstract
The management of advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients is becoming increasingly complex with the identification of driver mutations/rearrangements and development/availability of appropriate targeted therapies. In 2017, an expert group of medical oncologists with expertise in treating lung cancer used data from published literature and experience to arrive at practical consensus recommendations on treatment of advanced NSCLC for use by the community oncologists. This was published subsequently in the Indian Journal of Cancer with a plan to be updated annually. The present document is an update to the 2017 document.

Proposing synchronous oligometastatic non-small-cell lung cancer based on progression after first-line systemic therapy. Cancer Sci 2020; 112:359-368. [PMID: 33098119 PMCID: PMC7780027 DOI: 10.1111/cas.14707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2020] [Revised: 10/17/2020] [Accepted: 10/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite the importance of accurate disease definitions for effective management and treatment decisions, there is currently no consensus on what constitutes oligometastatic non–small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Predominant patterns of initial progressive disease (PD) after first‐line systemic therapy have been shown to be a substantial basis for local ablative therapy (LAT) for all disease sites in patients with oligometastatic NSCLC, suggesting that these patterns could be helpful in defining synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to propose a threshold number of metastases for synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC, based on the pattern of initial PD after first‐line systemic therapy. The cut‐off threshold number of metastases compatible with synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC was determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses of PD at the initially involved sites alone. ROC analysis of 175 patients revealed that the presence of 1‐3 metastases before first‐line treatment (sensitivity, 85.9%; specificity, 97.3%; area under the curve, 0.91) was compatible with oligometastatic NSCLC, therefore we divided patients into oligometastatic NSCLC and non‐oligometastatic NSCLC groups. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed oligometastatic NSCLC to be the only independent predictor of PD at initially involved sites alone (odds ratio 165.7; P < .001). The median survival times in patients with oligometastatic or non‐oligometastatic NSCLC were 23.0 and 10.9 mo (hazard ratio, 0.51; P = .002), respectively. Based on these findings, we propose synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC as 1‐3 metastases in accordance with patterns of initial progression. The result of our study might be contributory to provide a common definition of synchronous oligometastatic NSCLC.

Abstract
Background Radiomic feature analysis has been shown to be effective at modeling cancer outcomes. It has not yet been established how to best combine these radiomic features in patients with multifocal disease. As the number of patients with multifocal metastatic cancer continues to rise, there is a need for improving personalized patient-level prognostication to better inform treatment. Methods We compared six mathematical methods of combining radiomic features of 3596 tumors in 831 patients with multiple brain metastases and evaluated the performance of these aggregation methods using three survival models: a standard Cox proportional hazards model, a Cox proportional hazards model with LASSO regression, and a random survival forest. Results Across all three survival models, the weighted average of the largest three metastases had the highest concordance index (95% confidence interval) of 0.627 (0.595-0.661) for the Cox proportional hazards model, 0.628 (0.591-0.666) for the Cox proportional hazards model with LASSO regression, and 0.652 (0.565-0.727) for the random survival forest model. Conclusions Radiomic features can be effectively combined to establish patient-level outcomes in patients with multifocal brain metastases. Future studies are needed to confirm that the volume-weighted average of the largest three tumors is an effective method for combining radiomic features across other imaging modalities and disease sites.

Abstract
AIMS At diagnosis, <1% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have synchronous solitary brain metastasis (SSBM). In prior cohorts without 18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) staging, definitive treatment to intracranial and intrathoracic disease showed a 5-year overall survival (OS) of 11-21%. We investigated the long-term survival outcomes for patients with SSBM NSCLC, diagnosed in the FDG-PET/CT era and treated definitively with local therapies to both intracranial and intrathoracic sites of disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study assessed patients staged with FDG-PET/CT who received definitive lung and SSBM treatment from February 1999 to December 2017. A lung-molecular graded prognostic assessment (lung-molGPA) score was assigned for each patient using age, performance status score, and, where carried out, molecular status. Overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated using Kaplan-Meier methods. Cox proportional hazard models determined OS and PFS prognostic factors. RESULTS Forty-nine patients newly diagnosed with NSCLC and SSBM had a median age of 63 years (range 34-76). The median follow-up of all patients was 3.9 years. Thirty-three patients (67%) had ≥T2 disease, 23 (47%) had ≥N2. At 2 years, 45% of first failures were intracranial only (95% confidence interval 30-59). At 3 and 5 years, OS was 45% (95% confidence interval 32-63) and 30% (95% confidence interval 18-51), respectively. In ≥N1 disease, 5-year OS was 34% (95% confidence interval 18-63). The 3- and 5-year PFS was 8% (95% confidence interval 3-22) and 0%, respectively. Higher lung-molGPA was associated with longer OS (hazard ratio 0.26, 95% confidence interval 0.11-0.61, P = 0.002). Higher lung-molGPA (hazard ratio 0.33, 95% confidence interval 0.15-0.71, P = 0.005) and lower N-stage (hazard ratio 1.56, 95% confidence interval 1.13-2.15, P = 0.007) were associated with longer PFS. CONCLUSIONS Definitive treatment of patients with NSCLC and SSBM staged with FDG-PET/CT can result in 5-year survivors, including those with ≥N1 disease.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to compare the clinical efficacy of pemetrexed+cisplatin (PP) versus docetaxel+cisplatin (DP) for the treatment of stage IV lung adenocarcinoma. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 147 patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma treated between January 2011 and December 2015, 100 of which were in the DP group whereas 47 were in the DP group. Main inclusion criteria were treatment-naive patients, first-line treatment with PP or DP with no molecular targeted therapy during treatment, 2-6 cycles of first-line chemotherapy with unknown status of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, 18-75 years of age, and Karnofsky performance status score of at least 70. Prognostic factors for survival were identified by using univariate and multivariate analyses. Propensity score matching was performed to further adjust for confounding. A total of 47 pairs were successfully matched between the two groups. The median overall survival was 9.0 months in the DP group and 17.0 months in the PP group; the 1-year survival rate was 29.8 and 59.6%, respectively; the 2-year survival rate was 12.8 and 21.1%, respectively (χ=4.128, P=0.042); and median progression-free survival was 6.0 and 8.0 months, respectively (χ=4.839, P=0.028). Cox multivariate analysis showed that chemotherapy regimen and number of metastatic organs were independent factors for OS. The effect of the radiotherapy dose on the primary tumor on OS was close to statistically significant. The incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia was more significantly reduced in the DP group than in the PP group after matching (61.7 vs. 27.7%, P=0.002), with no between-group difference for adverse effects on platelets or hemoglobin. For patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma and unknown EGFR mutation status, PP was more effective than DP in prolonging survival and had a less adverse effect on neutrophils.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There was no study investigating real-world utilization and outcome of LCT in Osimertinib-treated NSCLC with oligo-residual disease. This study was to analyze the clinical value of local consolidative therapy (LCT) in Osimertinib-treated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with oligo-residual disease. METHODS Patients receiving standard Osimertinib treatment and developing oligo-residual disease (five or fewer residual metastatic lesions) were retrospectively reviewed. Local therapies performed to the oligo-residual tumor lesions or primary lung site before Osimertinib treatment failure were considered as LCT. RESULTS Of 108 patients recruited, first-line and second-line Osimertinib were administered in 25 and 83 patients, respectively, while LCT was performed in 14 patients. With a median follow-up of 43.6 months, 69 patients developed progressive disease. LCT significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) (NR vs 12.8 months, p = 0.01) and was independently associated with prolonged PFS (HR = 0.29, 95%CI 0.12 to 0.68, p = 0.004). Patients receiving LCT had a numerically longer overall survival (OS) (85.8 vs 77.1 months, p = 0.58) and after adjusting for potentially confounding factors, LCT was associated with a non-significantly prolonged OS (HR = 0.37, 95%CI 0.12-1.16, p = 0.089). Pattern of failure analyses indicated that progressive disease developed at the originally existed oligo-residual lesions in 76.2% of the 63 patients who didn't receive LCT and had Osimertinib treatment failure. Of note, 7 (70%) of the 10 patients who had oligo-residual cranial disease but didn't receive LCT, developed more than five progressive lesions in the brain, which were no longer suitable for stereotactic radiosurgery. CONCLUSION Among Osimertinib-treated NSCLC patients having oligo-residual lesions, LCT could improve local control and significantly increase PFS, which need to be verified by further investigations.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer mortality globally. A vast majority of lung cancer cases are diagnosed at advanced stages. Management of advanced lung cancer requires several diagnostic and therapeutic procedures provided by various specialists. To optimise the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process, a concept of care provided simultaneously by a multidisciplinary team (MDT) has been developed and implemented in specialised centres worldwide. Observational studies suggest that integrated and coordinated care increases adherence to clinical guidelines, significantly shortens the interval from diagnosis to treatment, and may increase survival and quality of life (QoL). Prospective studies are warranted to assess the real impact of MDT on treatment outcomes and to further refine this approach.

Thoracic Radiation Oncology Clinical Trial Accrual and Reasons for Nonenrollment: Results of a Large, Prospective, Multiyear Analysis. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2020; 107:897-908. [PMID: 32360653 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijrobp.2020.04.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Revised: 04/04/2020] [Accepted: 04/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Clinical trials are considered the gold standard in evidence-based medicine, yet few patients with cancer ultimately enroll. Here we examine patients screened for thoracic radiation oncology clinical trials to better understand enrollment trends. METHODS AND MATERIALS A prospective database tracking screening and enrollment for patients referred for thoracic radiation oncology consultation at our institution from 2016 to 2019 was evaluated. Proportional enrollment rates, patient and disease characteristics, self-reported socioeconomic factors, and reasons for ineligibility or nonenrollment across 17 radiation therapy trials were compared. RESULTS Enrollment data on 2372 patients were available for analysis. Of these patients, 40.0% (949) were deemed "not eligible" (NE) for any trial or were unwilling to be further screened. Reasons for ineligibility included stage (44%), histology (13%), radiation therapy not indicated (12%), patient decision (7%), and enrollment in a competing medical or surgical oncology trial (5%). The remaining 60.0% (1423) were "potentially eligible" (PE) for one or more trials. Most had non-small cell lung cancer (71%) or esophageal cancer (16%), and there were significantly fewer stage IV PE (29%) versus NE (49%) patients (P < .0001). Of 2372 patients, 281 (11.9%) enrolled. Notable reasons for nonenrollment were inclusion and exclusion criteria (58%), patients declining enrollment (14%), and physician decision (5%). The proportion of white patients was higher in the PE versus NE group (82.5% vs 75.8%; P < .001). Additionally, white race (87.9% vs 81.2%; P = .008), English language preference (96.4% vs 92.9%; P = .032), and non-Hispanic/Latino ethnicity (94.0% vs 90.1%; P = .042) were significantly different in enrolled versus nonenrolled PE patients. CONCLUSIONS Only 12% of patients screened for radiation therapy trials ultimately enrolled, and more than two-thirds had no trial available or were found ineligible. In addition, 19% of potential eligible patients did not enroll because the patient or physician declined. Future trials may benefit from pragmatic designs with more inclusive enrollment criteria and multidisciplinary engagement of referring providers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment options for newly diagnosed non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with 1 to 3 synchronous brain metastases (BM) remain controversial. The current study aimed to comprehensively analyze the characteristics, local treatment paradigms, and survival outcomes in these populations. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 252 NSCLC patients initially diagnosed with 1 to 3 synchronous brain-only metastases were enrolled onto this study. Local therapy (LT) to primary lung tumors (PLT) and BM included surgery, radiotherapy, or both. Median overall survival (mOS) was measured among patients who received LT to both PLT and BM (all-LT group), patients who were treated with LT to either PLT or BM (part-LT group), and patients who did not receive any LT (non-LT group). RESULTS The mOS for all-LT (n = 70), part-LT (n = 113), and non-LT (n = 69) groups was 33.2, 18.5, and 16.8 months, respectively (P = .002). The OS rates at 5 years for the all-LT, part-LT, and non-LT groups were 25.5%, 16.2%, and 0, respectively. Multivariable analysis revealed that all-LT versus non-LT, pretreatment Karnofsky performance status > 70, histology of adenocarcinoma, thoracic stage I-II, EGFR mutation, ALK positive, and second-line systemic therapies were independent prognostic factors for improved mOS. CONCLUSIONS The current study showed that LT for both PLT and BM is associated with superior OS in appropriately selected NSCLC patients initially diagnosed with 1 to 3 synchronous BM. Prospective trials are urgently needed to confirm this finding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic treatment is standard for most types of cancer with disseminated metastases. The role of local treatment (LT) of individual tumor foci in patients with oligometastatic disease is unclear and the object of current scientific studies. METHODS This review is based on pertinent publications retrieved by a selective search in PubMed. RESULTS Four randomized trials have shown that radical local treatment confers an advantage with respect to overall survival (OS), compared to systemic treatment alone, in patients with oligometastatic disease. In patients with synchronous metastases and a stable primary tumor, LT prolongs the median overall survival by approximately two years. A single randomized trial for oligometastatic small-cell lung cancer did not show any prolongation of overall survival. Local treatment increased the frequency of grade III side effects by approximately 10%. CONCLUSION Although local treatment already has a place in many guidelines on the basis of the findings of a small number of prospective and retrospective studies, a option of local treatment should be considered by an interdisciplinary tumor board individually for suitable patients.
