Abstract
Effective treatment for advanced lung cancer and idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) remains an unmet medical need. The relationship between chemotherapy's effectiveness in advanced lung cancer and the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP is poorly investigated. There is limited evidence that patients who experience an acute exacerbation of IIPs during cytotoxic chemotherapy have poorer outcomes than those who do not. Among 1004 patients with advanced lung cancer and IIPs enrolled in our published multi-centre retrospective study from 110 Japanese institutions, 708 patients (male: female, 645:63; mean age, 70.4) received first-line chemotherapy. The occurrence of chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbations of IIPs and overall survival (OS) were analysed. The OS between groups of patients with and without the occurrence of acute exacerbation was compared at four landmark time points (30, 60, 90, and 120 days), starting from the first-line chemotherapy, using the landmark method. The incidence of acute exacerbation in patients who received first-line chemotherapy with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was more frequent in NSCLC patients than in SCLC (4.2% vs 12.6%; odds ratio [OR]: 3.316; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.25-8.8). Median survival time was 9.9 months (95% CI 9.2-10.7). Patients who experienced acute exacerbation had significant worse survival outcomes than those who did not at various time points (30 days, hazard ratio [HR]: 5.191, 95% CI 2.889-9.328; 60 days, HR: 2.351, 95% CI 1.104-5.009; 90 days, HR: 2.416, 95% CI 1.232-4.739; and 120 days, HR: 2.521, 95% CI 1.357-4.681). Acute exacerbation during first-line chemotherapy can predict poor survival.Trial Registration number: UMIN000018227.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an interstitial lung disease with a poor prognosis and an unknown cause that generally progresses to pulmonary fibrosis and leads to irreversible tissue alteration. The "Guidelines for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis 2017," specializing in the treatment of IPF for the first time in Japan and presenting evidence-based standard treatment methods suited to the state of affairs in Japan, was published in 2017, in line with the 2014 version of "Formulation procedure for Minds Clinical Practice Guidelines." Because new evidence had accumulated, we formulated the "Guidelines for the treatment of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis 2023 (revised 2nd edition)." While keeping the revision consistent with the ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT IPF treatment guidelines, new clinical questions (CQs) on pulmonary hypertension were added to the chronic stage, in addition to acute exacerbation and comorbid lung cancer, which greatly affect the prognosis but are not described in the ATS/ERS/JRS/ALAT IPF guidelines. Regarding the advanced stages, we additionally created expert consensus-based advice for palliative care and lung transplantation. The number of CQs increased from 17 in the first edition to 24. It is important that these guidelines be used not only by respiratory specialists but also by general practitioners, patients, and their families; therefore, we plan to revise them appropriately in line with ever-advancing medical progress.

Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are often complicated by other respiratory diseases, including interstitial pneumonia (IP), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), and the management of which can be problematic. NSCLC patients with IP sometimes develop fatal acute exacerbation induced by pharmacotherapy, and the establishment of a safe treatment strategy is desirable. For advanced NSCLC with IP, carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel is a relatively safe and effective first-line treatment option. Although the safety of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) for these populations remains controversial, ICIs have the potential to provide long-term survival. The severity of COPD is an important prognostic factor in NSCLC patients. Although COPD complications do not necessarily limit treatment options, it is important to select drugs with fewer side effects on the heart and blood vessels as well as the lungs. Active TB is complicated by 2-5% of NSCLC cases during their disease course. Since pharmacotherapy, especially ICIs, reportedly induces the development of TB, the possibility of developing TB should always be kept in mind during NSCLC treatment. To date, there is no coherent review article on NSCLC with these pulmonary complications. This review article summarizes the current evidence and discusses future prospects for treatment strategies for NSCLC patients complicated with IP, severe COPD, and TB.

Abstract
Rationale: A fatal acute exacerbation (AE) occasionally develops during chemotherapy for small cell lung cancer (SCLC) with comorbid idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).Objectives: This study aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of carboplatin, etoposide, and nintedanib combination therapy for unresectable SCLC with comorbid IPF.Methods: The NEXT-SHIP study is a multicenter, single-arm, phase 2 trial for unresectable SCLC with IPF (Japan Registry of Clinical Trials registry number jRCTs031190119). The patients received carboplatin, etoposide, and nintedanib (150 mg twice daily). The primary endpoint was the incidence of IPF-AE at 28 days after the last administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy, and the sample size was set at 33 (5.0% expected, 20.0% threshold).Results: A total of 33 patients were registered; 87.9% were male, the median age was 73 years, the median percentage forced vital capacity was 85.2%, and 51.5% had honeycomb lungs. The median observation period was 10.5 months. The incidence of IPF-AE at 28 days after the last administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy was 3.0% (90% confidence interval [CI], 0.2-13.6). The objective response rate was 68.8% (95% CI, 50.0-83.9). The median progression-free survival and overall survival times were 4.2 months (95% CI, 4.2-5.5) and 13.4 months (95% CI, 8.1-21.6), respectively. The most common adverse event of grade 3 or higher was neutropenia (81.8%), followed by leukopenia (39.4%) and thrombocytopenia (30.3%).Conclusions: This study met its primary endpoint regarding the incidence of IPF-AEs with promising results for efficacy. Carboplatin, etoposide, and nintedanib combination therapy may be one of the standard treatment options for SCLC with comorbid IPF.Clinical trial registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCTs031190119).

Abstract
Background In interstitial pneumonia (IP)-associated lung cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (ICIP) is common with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment. The purpose of the present study was to clarify the safety and efficacy of ICI treatment for patients with lung cancer with IP. Methods This multicentre retrospective observational study was conducted from June 2016 to December 2020 in patients with primary lung cancer with IP who received ICI treatment. Results A total of 200 patients (median age 70 years; male/female, 176/24) were enrolled from 27 institutions. ICIP occurred in 61 patients (30.5%), pneumonitis grades 3-5 in 32 patients (15.5%) and death in nine patients (4.5%). The common computed tomography pattern of ICIP was organising pneumonia in 29 patients (47.5%). Subsequently, diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) pattern was observed in 19 patients (31.1%) who had a significantly worse prognosis than those with a non-DAD pattern (median progression-free survival (PFS) 115 days versus 226 days, p=0.042; median overall survival (OS) 334 days versus 1316 days, p<0.001). Immune-related adverse events (irAEs) occurred in approximately 50% of patients. Patients with irAEs (n=100) had a better prognosis than those without irAEs (n=100) (median PFS 200 days versus 77 days, p<0.001; median OS 597 days versus 390 days p=0.0074). The objective response rate and disease control rate were 41.3% and 68.5%, respectively. Conclusions Although ICI treatment was effective for patients with lung cancer with IP, ICIP developed in approximately 30% of patients. Patients with irAEs had a significantly better PFS and OS than those without irAEs.

Abstract
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially those with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, are at increased risk of developing lung cancer (LC). Pharmacotherapy for advanced LC has dramatically progressed in recent years;however, management of LC with pre-existing ILD (LC-ILD) is challenging due to serious concerns about the risk of acute exacerbation of ILD (AE-ILD). As patients with LC-ILD have been excluded from most prospective clinical trials of advanced LC, optimal pharmacotherapy remains to be elucidated. Although the antitumor activity of first-line platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy appears to be similar in advanced LC patients with or without ILD, its impact on the survival of patients with LC-ILD is limited. Immune checkpoint inhibitors may hold promise for long-term survival, but many challenges remain, including safety and appropriate patient selection. Further understanding the predictive factors for AE-ILD after receiving pharmacotherapy in LC-ILD may lead to appropriate patient selection and lower treatment risk. The aim of this review was to summarize the current evidence related to pharmacotherapy for advanced LC-ILD and discuss emerging areas of research. J. Med. Invest. 71 : 9-22, February, 2024.

Chemotherapy versus best supportive care in advanced lung cancer and idiopathic interstitial pneumonias: A retrospective multi-centre cohort study. Respir Investig 2023; 61:284-295. [PMID: 36496345 DOI: 10.1016/j.resinv.2022.10.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical questions of whether chemotherapy as initial treatment, compared with best supportive care (BSC), improves overall survival (OS) and whether it increases the occurrence risk of acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) in patients with advanced-stage lung cancer and IIP remain inconclusive. This study addresses these issues, given that chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of IIP may be a direct cause of mortality in these patients. METHODS We enrolled 1003 patients from 110 Japanese institutions and collected clinical profiles from 707 and 296 patients in the chemotherapy (men: women, 645:62; mean age, 70.4 ± 6.9 years) and BSC (men: women, 261:35; mean age, 75.2 ± 7.8) groups, respectively. We used propensity score matching to create 222 matched pairs from both groups using patient demographic data (age, sex, smoking status, performance status, history of acute exacerbation of IIP, desaturation on exertion, clinical diagnosis of IIP, high-resolution computed tomography findings, serum fibrotic markers, pulmonary function status, and lung cancer histopathology). Logistic or Cox regression analyses were performed using matched data to assess the effects of chemotherapy on the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP or OS, respectively. RESULTS In the well-matched cohort, chemotherapy improved OS (hazard ratio: 0.629, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.506-0.783, p < 0.0001); however, it involved significant acute exacerbation of IIP (odds ratio: 1.787, 95% CI: 1.026-3.113) compared to BSC. CONCLUSIONS Compared with BSC, chemotherapy can improve OS in patients with advanced-stage lung cancer and IIP; however, it increases the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP.

Abstract
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially those with pulmonary fibrosis, are at increased risk of developing lung cancer. Management of lung cancer in patients with ILD is particularly challenging. Diagnosis can be complicated by difficulty differentiating lung nodules from areas of focal fibrosis, and percutaneous biopsy approaches confer an increased risk of complications in those with pulmonary fibrosis. Lung cancer treatment in these patients pose several specific considerations. The degree of lung function impairment may preclude lobectomy or surgical resection of any type. Surgical resection can trigger an acute exacerbation of the underlying ILD. The presence of ILD confers an increased risk of pneumonitis with radiotherapy, and many of the systemic therapies also carry an increased risk of pneumonitis in this population. The safety of immunotherapy in the setting of ILD remains to be fully elucidated and concerns remain as to triggering pneumonitis. The purpose of this review is to summarize the evidence regarding consideration for tissue diagnosis, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, in this patient population and discuss emerging areas of research. We also propose a multidisciplinary approach and practical considerations for monitoring for ILD progression during lung cancer treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is limited because of the risk of its acute exacerbation (AE). Furthermore, the efficacy and safety of second-line chemotherapy for these patients is unclear. METHODS To investigate the efficacy and safety of second-line chemotherapy for NSCLC patients with ILD, we retrospectively reviewed patients who were treated at our institute between April 2010 and December 2018. RESULTS Thirty-five patients received two or more regimens. Thirty-four patients were male and the median age at the initiation of second-line chemotherapy was 70 years. Almost all patients had a smoking history. Fourteen patients had adenocarcinoma and 15 had squamous cell carcinoma histology. Stages III and IV were observed in 20 and 11 patients, respectively. With respect to the type of ILD, 12 patients had usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). The overall response rate and disease control rate were 11.4 and 68.6%, respectively. The median progression-free and median overall survival were 4.1 and 6.4 months, respectively. The AE of ILD was observed in eight patients, five of whom died. UIP and low percentage vital capacity were detected as significant risk factors for the AE of ILD. CONCLUSION Second-line chemotherapy among patients with NSCLC complicated by ILD showed a certain effectiveness, but some patients experienced the AE of ILD, which may lead to death. The risk of the AE of ILD must be considered especially for patients with UIP and low percentage VC.

Abstract
Background The prognosis of lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor, and acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD can occur during chemotherapy as a fatal adverse event. Although AE‐ILD development is correlated with various factors, no reports are investigating the disease activity of lung cancer at the time of AE‐ILD development. Methods All consecutive lung cancer patients with ILD who developed chemotherapy‐related AE‐ILD within 28 days after the last administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy between 2011 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Among 206 lung cancer patients with ILD who were treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy, 30 patients were included. The median age was 72 years and all patients were men with smoking history. Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and non‐UIP patterns of ILD was observed in 17 and 13 patients. Most of AE‐ILD occurred during second‐ or later‐line (22/30, 73.3%) and developed within first or second courses during chemotherapy (19/30, 63.3%). Regarding tumor response to chemotherapy at AE‐ILD development, majority of patients (18 patients, 60.0%) experienced progressive disease and only one patient (3.3%) experienced a partial response. Notably, 27 patients (90.0%) did not exhibit any tumor shrinkage of the thoracic lesions. Conclusion Lung cancer was uncontrolled with cytotoxic chemotherapy at the time of AE‐ILD development. Although AE‐ILD during chemotherapy has been generally discussed in terms of drug‐specific adverse effects, uncontrolled lung cancer may be also correlated with AE‐ILD development.

Abstract
Introduction: Although recent advances in chemotherapy for lung cancer are remarkable, most clinical trials have excluded patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) due to the concern of developing acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD. Hence, accumulating original evidence of cancer treatment for this population is important. Methods: Between 2016 and 2020, a prospective observational study was conducted across 11 Japanese hospitals. Patients with chemotherapy-naïve, inoperable, advanced lung cancer with ILD were included. The primary outcome was the frequency of AE-ILD after registration; the secondary outcomes were the risk factor of AE-ILD and the efficacy of chemotherapy. Results: Among 124 patients enrolled, 109 patients who received chemotherapy were analyzed. The median age was 72 years, and the majority showed usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP)/probable UIP pattern upon chest computed tomography. The median percent-predicted forced vital capacity (%FVC) was 81% (interquartile range: 66–95%). After registration, 23 patients (21.1%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 14.4–29.7%) developed AE-ILD. The logistic analysis revealed that lower %FVC slightly but significantly increased the risk of AE-ILD (odds ratio per 10% decrease: 1.27; 95% CI: > 1.00–1.62). Overall response rates/median overall survival times in non-small-cell lung cancer and small-cell lung cancer for the first-line chemotherapy were 41% (95% CI: 31–53)/8.9 months (95% CI: 7.6–11.8) and 91% (95% CI: 76–98)/12.2 months (95% CI: 9.2–14.5), respectively. Conclusion: AE-ILD during chemotherapy is a frequent complication among patients with lung cancer with ILD, particularly those with lower %FVC. Conversely, even in this population, passable treatment response can be expected.

Abstract
Background A standard treatment regimen for advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) has not been established since most clinical trials exclude such patients because of the high risk of acute exacerbation of ILD. This study aimed to prospectively investigate the efficacy and safety of carboplatin and nab‐paclitaxel as a first‐line regimen for NSCLC patients with ILD. Methods The enrolled patients had treatment‐naïve advanced NSCLC with ILD. The patients received 4–6 cycles of carboplatin (area under the curve = 5) on day 1 and nab‐paclitaxel 100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 every 4 weeks. The primary endpoint was the completion rate of four or more cycles. Secondary endpoints included toxicity, overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression‐free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results Twenty‐five patients were enrolled in this study. Nine patients had adenocarcinoma, 11 had squamous cell carcinoma, one had large cell carcinoma, and four had NSCLC, not otherwise specified. The completion rate of ≥4 cycles was 76% (95% confidence interval: 56.2%–88.8%), which met the primary endpoint. The ORR and DCR were 44% and 88%, respectively. The median PFS and OS were 5.8 months and 15.8 months, respectively. Three patients experienced grade ≥2 pneumonitis, and one patient met the acute exacerbation criteria. Conclusion The 4‐week modified regimen of carboplatin and nab‐paclitaxel showed tolerable toxicity with favorable efficacy in NSCLC patients with ILD. This regimen may be an effective treatment option for patients in real clinical settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal second and subsequent lines of chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have preexisting interstitial lung disease (ILD) are unclear. Hence, we examined the clinical efficacy and safety of second-line chemotherapy in such patients, including any exacerbation of preexisting ILD. METHODS The medical records of patients with NSCLC and preexisting ILD who received both first- and second-line chemotherapy were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Twenty-four patients with a median age of 71 years who were treated between April 2013 and March 2021 were included. The response rate after second-line chemotherapy with S-1 (n = 13), docetaxel (n = 8), pemetrexed (n = 2), or docetaxel plus ramucirumab (n = 1) was 12.5%, with a median progression-free survival (2nd line PFS) of 3.8 months. The overall survival from a start of first-line chemotherapy (1st line OS) and post-progression survival (PPS) post-first-line chemotherapy were 18.7 and 9.7 months, respectively. Spearman rank correlation and linear regression analyses showed that PPS was strongly correlated with 1st line OS (R = 0.85, P < 0.00001). Importantly, the 2nd line PFS was also significantly correlated with 1st line OS (R = 0.71, P = 0.0001). While second-line chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of ILD was observed in 7 patients (29.2%), there were no treatment-related fatalities. Conslusions. Second-line chemotherapy has a strong positive impact on the OS of patients with NSCLC who have preexisting ILD. Given the findings of this study, second-line chemotherapy may be valuable in terms of prolonging long-term OS.

Can acute exacerbations occurring late after surgery with interstitial lung diseases be predicted? Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2021; 70:160-169. [PMID: 34533756 DOI: 10.1007/s11748-021-01707-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of acute exacerbation (AE) 31 days after surgery in lung cancer (LC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) has not yet been elucidated. This study aimed to identify the AE incidence rate, mortality rate, and risk factors in patients with late-stage LC with ILD. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study on 410 patients with ILD on preoperative computed tomography among 3939 patients with LC who underwent their first surgery between August 2008 and July 2019. We divided the patients into Group A (early AE; 18cases), Group B (late AE; 40 cases), and Group C (no AE; 352 cases). RESULTS There were no significant differences in the clinical background between Groups A and B. The AE incidence rates were 0.56 case per person-years at ≤ 30 days, 0.24 at 90 days, 0.14 at 180 days, 0.10 at 1 year, 0.078 at 2 years, 0.086 at 3 years, 0.064 at 4 years, and 0.059 at 5 years after surgery. The mortality rates of the first AE were 10/18 (56%), 3/5 (60%), 7/13 (54%), and 7/22 (32%) at onset ≤ 30 days, 31-90 days, 91-365 days, and 366-1825 days after surgery, respectively. Multivariate Cox proportional analysis showed that adjuvant chemotherapy and a usual IP (UIP) pattern on CT + KL-6 ≥ 1000 (hazard ratio 3.647, 2.631) were predictors of late AEs. CONCLUSIONS Patients with adjuvant chemotherapy and a usual IP (UIP) pattern on CT + KL-6 ≥ 1000 are likely to develop later AEs. Therefore, early intervention with antifibrotic therapy is recommended.

Abstract
Of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 5-10% have interstitial pneumonia (IP) at the time of diagnosis. To avoid fatal acute exacerbations of pre-existing IP, appropriate patient selection and low-risk treatment choices are warranted. Risk factors for acute exacerbation of pre-existing IP with cytotoxic drugs include honeycomb lungs on computed tomography (CT) and low forced vital capacity, but risk factors with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have not been fully investigated. For advanced or recurrent NSCLC with comorbid IP, carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel is the standard of care for first-line treatment, but second-line or later treatment has not been established. ICI holds great promise for long-term survival, but many challenges remain, including safety and appropriate patient selection. Since the indications for pharmacotherapy and radiotherapy for NSCLC with comorbid IP are quite limited, surgical resection should be considered as much as possible for patients with operable stages. A scoring system has been reported to predict the risk of postoperative acute exacerbation of pre-existing IP, but perioperative treatment has not been established. In the future, it is necessary to accumulate more cases and conduct further research, not only in Japan but also worldwide.

Abstract
Background and Objective Interstitial lung disease with lung cancer (ILD-LC) is rare and its management has not been fully described. This study aimed to investigate the management and prognosis of ILD-LC patients in China. Methods The present analysis is a retrospective real-world cohort study. Clinical data of ILD-LC patients were obtained from 3 hospitals in China. The overall survival (OS) of patients was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed. Results One hundred eighty-four ILD-LC patients included were biased toward male (85.3%), smokers (75.5%), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) (58.2%) patients with comorbidities (67.9%) and ECOG-PS score of 1 (65.2%). Most patients were advanced peripheral non-small cell lung cancer. The initial anti-cancer regimen for ILD-LC is mainly chemotherapy, and patients with early-stage LC prefer surgery. In the anti-cancer cohort, the number of ILD-LC patients who underwent the 2nd and 3rd or more anti-cancer regimens were 78 (55.7%) and 32 (22.8%), respectively. In the non-anticancer cohort, the median OS was 3.5 months. In the early-stage cohort, the median OS was 14.2 months in the systematic therapy group; however, the median OS was not reached in the surgery group. In the advanced-stage cohort with systematic therapy, the median OS was 7.2 months. Interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and anti-angiogenesis were associated with OS in the univariate analysis, whereas anti-angiogenesis was an independent protective factor for advanced LC with ILD. Conclusion Patients with ILD-LC have very poor prognosis. Appropriate anti-tumor treatment can prolong the survival time of patients who can tolerate it. Targeted therapy and immunotherapy are alternative treatments for LC patients with mild ILD. For ILD patients with advanced LC, antiangiogenic regimens significantly improve the prognosis of the disease.

Pre-existing interstitial lung disease does not affect prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer patients with PD-L1 expression ≥50% on first-line pembrolizumab. Thorac Cancer 2020; 12:304-313. [PMID: 33185333 PMCID: PMC7862785 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.13725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2020] [Revised: 10/15/2020] [Accepted: 10/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The safety of pembrolizumab monotherapy in treatment‐naïve non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with high programed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) expression and pre‐existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) has not yet been determined. Here, we aimed to evaluate the prognosis, efficacy and safety associated with pembrolizumab in such settings. Methods In this single‐institution retrospective study conducted from May 2017 to October 2019, pembrolizumab was administered to 72 Japanese patients with treatment‐naïve advanced NSCLC with PD‐L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%. Patients with ILD were assigned to the ILD group, and those without to the non‐ILD group. Between‐group comparisons were then performed. Results Of the 72 patients, 61 (84.7%) were male. The median age was 70 years. A total of 64 patients (88.9%) had a smoking history, median PD‐L1 TPS status was 77.5%, and 10 of the 72 patients (13.9%) had ILD on pretreatment computed tomography. The objective response rate (ORR) was 45.8% and disease control rate (DCR) was 75.0%. The ORR was 70.0% and DCR was 90.0% in the ILD group, while the ORR was 41.9% and DCR was 72.6% in the non‐ILD group. The median overall survival was 568 days; the value in the non‐ILD group was 521 days, while in the ILD group was not reached. There was no significant difference between the two groups (log‐lank, P = 0.73). Conclusions Pembrolizumab was administered to patients with pre‐existing ILD with no difference in prognosis compared to patients without ILD. In patients with ILD, physicians should consider the expected long‐term prognosis and risk of adverse events.

Safety and effectiveness of pirfenidone combined with carboplatin-based chemotherapy in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and non-small cell lung cancer: A retrospective cohort study. Thorac Cancer 2020; 11:3317-3325. [PMID: 32986306 PMCID: PMC7606001 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.13675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2020] [Revised: 09/07/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Pirfenidone is an antifibrotic agent that is potentially effective for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, no study has reported on its prophylactic value against chemotherapy‐associated acute IPF exacerbations when combined with chemotherapy for non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present study assessed the safety and effectiveness of pirfenidone combined with carboplatin‐based chemotherapy or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with IPF and NSCLC. Methods A total of 14 patients with IPF and NSCLC who received treatment from 2013 to 2019 were included. Patients were treated with pirfenidone combined with carboplatin and nanoparticle albumin‐bound paclitaxel or S‐1 as first‐line chemotherapy. After confirming disease progression, patients received cytotoxic agents or ICIs, including nivolumab and pembrolizumab. Pirfenidone was continued regardless of chemotherapy changes. Overall survival (OS) and progression‐free survival (PFS) for lung cancer and IPF were calculated. Moreover, the cumulative incidence of acute exacerbation of IPF (AE‐IPF) within one year was evaluated. Results Median PFS for lung cancer was 110 days (95% confidence interval [CI]: 57–199 days), while the median OS was 362 days (95% CI: 220–526 days). Moreover, PFS for IPF was 447 days (95% CI: 286–indeterminate days), and the cumulative incidence of AE‐IPF within one year was 18%. Notably, none of the patients developed AE‐IPF associated with first‐line chemotherapy. Among the included patients, four received ICIs, none of whom developed ICI‐associated AE‐IPF. Conclusions The present study found that pirfenidone combined with carboplatin‐based regimens or ICIs might be safe first‐line chemotherapy for patients with IPF and NSCLC. Key points Significant findings of the study No patients with IPF and NSCLC who received pirfenidone in combination with first‐line carboplatin‐based chemotherapy or late‐line ICIs developed acute IPF exacerbations.
What this study addsPirfenidone might have a prophylactic effect against chemotherapy‐associated AE‐IPF.

[PMID: 33014824 PMCID: PMC7506119 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01636] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 07/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Lung cancer is a well-known comorbidity of interstitial lung disease (ILD), and the actual efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (NSCLC-ILD) have not been determined. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC-ILD. Methods: We searched related studies from the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase. The endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), 1-year overall survival rate (1-yOS rate), and first-line chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease rate (AE-ILD rate). Results: We included 21 studies involving 684 patients in our analysis. The pooled ORR was 43% (95% CI: 38.0–49.0%), and the pooled DCR was 80.0% (95% CI: 75.7–83.9%). The modified overall 1-yOS rate was 33.0% (95% CI: 29.0–37.0%). The pooled AE-ILD rate was 8.07% (95% CI: 6.12–10.26%). Subgroup analysis revealed a trend for lower AE-ILD rate (4.98%; 95% CI: 2.44–8.37%) in patients with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel. Lung function and AE-ILD may be associated with the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD. Conclusions: First-line chemotherapy is effective in patients with NSCLC-ILD, and the AE-ILD rate is acceptable, but the prognosis is limited. Future randomized controlled trials are needed to explore more appropriate treatment regimens to improve the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD.

Abstract
Background Chemotherapy-induced acute exacerbation (AEx) of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) seriously compromises the success of treatment of Japanese lung cancer patients. Here, we conducted a nationwide surveillance to clarify the risk of AEx and compare it with the survival benefit of chemotherapy for this population. Methods Advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients with IIPs were retrospectively analysed. For the surveillance of first-line chemotherapy in 2009, we gathered clinical data from 396 patients who received chemotherapy at 19 institutions between January 1990 and July 2009. In a consecutive retrospective study in 2012, we analysed data from 278 patients from 17 institutions who received second-line chemotherapy between April 2002 and March 2012. Results Of the 396 patients analysed, 13.1% developed chemotherapy-related AEx. Combination chemotherapies of carboplatin plus paclitaxel (CP) or carboplatin plus etoposide (CE) were frequently used as first-line treatments. The lowest incidence of AEx was 3.7% in CE, followed by 8.6% in CP. In the retrospective study, 16.2% of the 278 patients developed a second-line chemotherapy-related AEx. The overall response rate by second-line chemotherapy was 7.4% in NSCLC and 25.7% in SCLC. The median overall survival from second-line and first-line chemotherapy was 8.0 and 14.3 months in NSCLC, and 8.7 and 16.0 months in SCLC, respectively. Conclusion Combination chemotherapies consisting of CP or CE are candidates for standard first-line treatments for patients with advanced lung cancer accompanied by IIP. Second-line chemotherapy should be considered for patients remaining fit enough to receive it. The Japanese are at high risk of acute exacerbation of IPF. Therefore, chemotherapy for Japanese lung cancer patients with IIPs is challenging. However, appropriate chemotherapy may give a survival benefit, despite the risk of acute deterioration of IIPs.http://bit.ly/3cROaCy

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a risk factor for lung cancer. Patients with lung cancer associated with ILD (LC-ILD) often appear clinically. During the treatment of LC-ILD, there is a risk of causing acute exacerbation or even death in the treatment of lung cancer. At the same time, combining ILD has become the exclusion criteria for prospective clinical trials of most lung cancers. Therefore, when lung cancer is combined with ILD, it often becomes a difficult point for the treatment of lung cancer. Because LC-ILD patients have a certain proportion in the clinic, it is necessary to explore the best treatment options. Here we review the results of existing clinical studies for reference.

Abstract
Nintedanib has been approved for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). In addition, in EU countries, nintedanib plus docetaxel is used for patients with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after first‐line chemotherapy. Here, we report a case of advanced NSCLC in a patient with IPF successfully treated with nintedanib monotherapy. A 69‐year‐old man was diagnosed with NSCLC complicated by IPF. After three lines of chemotherapy, he still had progressive disease. Because his IPF had also progressed, requiring supplemental oxygen, we decided to start best supportive care and introduced nintedanib to treat his IPF. One month later, we observed a partial remission of the primary tumor and pleural disseminations without severe adverse events. Nintedanib monotherapy might therefore be an effective therapeutic choice for NSCLC in patients with IPF who are unable to tolerate cytotoxic chemotherapy. Key points Efficacy of nintedanib administered in a NSCLC patient with IPF. Nintedanib monotherapy might be a therapeutic option for NSCLC patients with IPF who are unable to tolerate chemotherapy.

Prediction of Anti-Cancer Drug-Induced Pneumonia in Lung Cancer Patients: Novel High-Resolution Computed Tomography Fibrosis Scoring. J Clin Med 2020; 9:jcm9041045. [PMID: 32272762 PMCID: PMC7230276 DOI: 10.3390/jcm9041045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2020] [Revised: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and objective: Pre-existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) in lung cancer patients is considered a risk factor for anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia; however, a method for evaluating ILD, including mild cases, has not yet been established. We aimed to elucidate whether the quantitative high-resolution computed tomography fibrosis score (HFS) is correlated with the risk of anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia in lung cancer patients, even in those with mild pre-existing ILD. Methods: The retrospective single-institute study cohort comprised 214 lung cancer patients who underwent chemotherapy between April 2013 and March 2016. The HFS quantitatively evaluated the grade of pre-existing ILD. We extracted data regarding age, sex, smoking history, and coexisting factors that could affect the incidence of anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia. Cox proportional hazard models were used to analyze the effects of the HFS and other factors on the risk of anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia. Results: Pre-existing ILD was detected in 61 (29%) of 214 patients, while honeycombing and traction bronchiectasis were observed in only 15 (7.0%) and 10 (4.7%) patients, respectively. Anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia developed in 19 (8.9%) patients. The risk of anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia increased in proportion to the HFS (hazard ratio, 1.16 per point; 95% confidence interval, 1.09–1.22; p < 0.0001). Conclusions: The quantitative HFS was correlated with the risk of developing anti-cancer drug-induced pneumonia in lung cancer patients, even in the absence of honeycombing or traction bronchiectasis. The quantitative HFS may lead to better management of lung cancer patients with pre-existing ILD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Identifying risk factors for cancer treatment-related acute exacerbations (AEs) of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) in patients with lung cancer. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed clinical records of 98 patients with concurrent lung cancer and IIPs diagnosed and treated at the Sapporo Medical University Hospital from January 2010 to December 2014. RESULTS Of the 98 patients with concurrent lung cancer and IIPs, 14 patients (14.3%) had AEs. A total of 10 patients died. The univariate analysis revealed that the patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) patterns on chest computed tomography (CT) had significantly higher rates of AE than those with non-IPF or non-UIP patterns, respectively. Further, those with a reduced percentage of forced vital capacity (%FVC) predictive values or elevated Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) presented significantly higher rates of AE. Our multivariate analysis identified that UIP pattern on chest CT and each 10% decrease in %FVC were significant independent risk factors for AEs. Of the 14 patients who experienced AEs, 10 cases were associated with cancer treatment. The treatment-specific incidences were 3/40 (7.5%) for surgery, 5/50 (10.0%) for chemotherapy, and 2/26 (7.7%) for radiation therapy. After comparing the AE incidences in 55 cases receiving one treatment (monotherapy group) and in 29 cases receiving two types of treatment or more (multitherapy group), we found no significant differences. CONCLUSIONS Chest CT UIP patterns and reduced %FVC are independent risk factors for AE. Moreover, AE incidence did not increase in the multitherapy group compared with the monotherapy group.

Abstract
Systemic therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has dramatically changed in the latest 15 years. Molecular-targeted therapy has brought about an era of precision medicine, and immune checkpoint inhibitors have brought hope for a cure for advanced NSCLC. In the wake of this remarkable advancement, lung cancer with comorbid interstitial pneumonia (IP) has been completely left behind, as most clinical trials exclude patients with comorbid IP. IP, especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), is often accompanied by lung cancer, and acute exacerbation can develop during various cancer therapies, including surgery, radiotherapy and pharmacotherapy. In this review, we focus on the clinical questions concerning pharmacotherapy in cases of advanced lung cancer with comorbid IP and discuss what we can do with the currently available data.

Abstract
The prognosis of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor, and 5%‐20% of those receiving chemotherapy experience ILD exacerbation. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of nab‐paclitaxel plus carboplatin for NSCLC patients with ILD, we undertook a multicenter phase II study. Chemotherapy‐naïve patients with advanced NSCLC and mild or moderate ILD received nab‐paclitaxel (100 mg/m2, days 1, 8, and 15) plus carboplatin (area under the curve = 6, day 1) every 3 weeks for 4 cycles (maximum, 6 cycles). Interstitial lung diseases were diagnosed based on criteria for fibrosing interstitial pneumonia. The primary endpoint was the prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD 28 days after completion of protocol treatment. Secondary endpoints were response rate, progression‐free survival, overall survival, prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD, and toxicity. Ninety‐four patients were enrolled, and 92 patients received any protocol treatment. Median age was 70 years, and 58% had nonsquamous histology. In the primary analysis, the prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD 28 days after protocol treatment was 95.7% (88/92; 90% confidence interval, 90.3‐98.5), which met the primary endpoint. Response rate was 51% (95% confidence interval, 40%‐62%). At the time of data cut‐off, median progression‐free survival was 6.2 months, and median overall survival was 15.4 months. The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (75%), leukopenia (53%), anemia (48%), and thrombocytopenia (20%). Two treatment‐related deaths (1 each of pulmonary infection and ILD exacerbation) were observed. This study showed that a combination of nab‐paclitaxel with carboplatin was tolerable in NSCLC patients with mild or moderate ILD in terms of safety. This study is registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN) Clinical Trial Registry (UMIN 000012989).

Abstract
Dramatic progress in targeted therapy and immunotherapy has been changing clinical practices in lung cancer. With the accumulation of clinical practice, it has become clear that pre-existing interstitial pneumonia (IP) could be a risk factor for drug-induced lung injury, which has enhanced awareness regarding the difficulty in treating lung cancer with comorbid IP. Unfortunately, there is only low-grade evidence in the field of lung cancer with comorbid IP, because almost all clinical trials exclude such patients. There have been very few specialized clinical trials for patients with lung cancer and underlying IPs thus far. Therefore, it is necessary to treat such cases empirically or to give up on the treatment itself. Considering these circumstances, establishing how to treat lung cancer with comorbid IP is an urgent issue. This paper is a summary of the official statement reported by the Diffuse Lung Disease/Thoracic Oncology Assembly and the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) in 2017, which attempts to approach lung cancer with comorbid IP systematically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common lung cancer. Numerous clinical studies have reported that the combination of carboplatin and S-1 (CS) can be used to treat NSCLC effectively. However, no systematic review has been conducted to assess its efficacy and safety for NSCLC. This systematic review aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CS for treatment of patients with NSCLC. METHODS This study will retrieve the following electronic databases from inception to the February 1, 2019: Cochrane Library, EMBASE, MEDILINE, CINAHL, AMED, and 4 Chinese databases without any language limitations. This systematic review will include randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and case-control studies for assessing the efficacy and safety of CS for the treatment of NSCLC. Cochrane risk of bias will be used as methodological quality assessment for each qualified study. The RevMan V.5.3 software will be utilized to synthesize the data and conduct the meta-analysis if it is allowed. The data will be pooled by using the random-effects model or fixed-effects model. RESULTS The primary outcome is overall response rate. The secondary outcomes are overall survival, progression-free survival, the disease control rate, and any adverse events. CONCLUSION It will provide latest evidence to determine the efficacy and safety of CS for treatment of patients with NSCLC. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION No research ethic approval is needed in this study because this study will not analyze individual patient data. The results are expected to disseminate through peer-reviewed journals. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION PROSPERO CRD42019124860.

Real-World Evidence of Safety and Efficacy of Carboplatin plus Nanoparticle Albumin-Bound Paclitaxel in Patients with Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer and Preexisting Interstitial Lung Disease: A Retrospective Study. Can Respir J 2019; 2019:5315903. [PMID: 31015884 PMCID: PMC6446117 DOI: 10.1155/2019/5315903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2018] [Revised: 01/29/2019] [Accepted: 02/16/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Standard chemotherapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with preexisting interstitial lung disease (ILD) has not yet been established. Although a combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel is most frequently used for patients with advanced NSCLC and ILD, the safety and efficacy of carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) are yet to be elucidated. Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel for advanced NSCLC with ILD. Methods This retrospective study included nine patients with advanced NSCLC and ILD who received carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel as first-line chemotherapy at the National Hospital Organization Kanazawa Medical Center between April 2013 and December 2017. The ILD-GAP index was used to evaluate mortality risk of baseline ILD. Results A usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern of ILD was observed in five (55.6%) patients on their baseline high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans. The median ILD-GAP index was 4 (range, 1–5), and six (66.7%) patients had ILD-GAP index ≥4. We observed no ILD exacerbations or chemotherapy-related deaths. The overall response and disease control rates were 77.8% (95% CI, 40.0–97.2) and 88.9% (95% CI, 51.8–97.2), respectively. The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 5.8 months (95% CI, 2.1–7.7) and 8.0 months (95% CI, 2.6–16.8), respectively. Conclusions Carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel showed favorable safety and efficacy in patients who had advanced NSCLC and ILD with a high risk of mortality. Prospective studies are required to further confirm these results.

Abstract
Background The optimal chemotherapy regimen for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains unknown. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the real-world efficacy and safety of carboplatin (CBDCA) plus nab-paclitaxel (nab-PTX) as a first-line regimen for NSCLC patients with ILD. Patients and methods We retrospectively reviewed advanced NSCLC patients with ILD who had received CBDCA plus nab-PTX as a first-line chemotherapy regimen between April 2013 and March 2018. Patients were diagnosed with ILD based on the findings of a pretreatment high-resolution computed tomography of the chest. Results The 34 patients enrolled in this study were included in the efficacy and safety analysis. Collagen vascular disease or a history of exposure to dust or asbestos was not reported for any patients. The median age of patients was 71 years (range, 59–83 years), and 32 patients had a performance status of 0 or 1. The overall response rate was 38.2%. The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 5.8 months and 12.7 months, respectively. Chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of ILD was observed in two patients (5.7%). Other toxicities were feasible, and no treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusion CBDCA plus nab-PTX, as a first-line chemotherapy regimen for NSCLC, showed favorable efficacy and safety in patients with preexisting ILD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The clinical benefit of chemotherapy and the appropriate regimen for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) remain unclear. To fulfill this unmet medical need, we conducted a phase II study to elucidate the efficacy of S-1 in combination with carboplatin (CBDCA) in NSCLC patients with ILD. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 33 advanced or recurrent NSCLC patients with ILD were prospectively enrolled in this multicenter, open-label, phase II study. Every 4 weeks, CBDCA at a dose of AUC 5 on day 1 and S-1 at a dose of 80 mg/m2 daily for 14 days were administered. The primary endpoint was the investigator-assessed objective response rate. RESULTS The median age at initiating chemotherapy was 70. Sixteen patients (48.5%) had squamous cell carcinoma histology. With respect to the types of ILD, the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern was dominant (66.7%). The median number of cycles administered was 3, and the overall response rate and disease control rate were 33.3% and 78.8%, respectively. The median progression-free survival, the median survival time and the 1-year survival rate were 4.8 months, 12.8 months and 51.4%, respectively. Acute exacerbation of ILD caused by chemotherapy was noted in 2 patients (6.1%). CONCLUSION This is the first prospective study designed to evaluate the efficacy of a specific chemotherapeutic regimen as the primary endpoint in patients with advanced NSCLC with ILD. The combination of S-1 with CBDCA may be a treatment option for advanced NSCLC patients with ILD (The clinical trial registration number: UMIN000011046).

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) are commonly excluded from most clinical trials because of acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD triggered by chemotherapy. Data on the efficacy and feasibility of chemotherapy are limited in this patient population. Recently, the ILD-GAP index and staging system was reported as a clinical prognostic factor associated with mortality in patients with ILD. Therefore, we evaluated the incidence of ILD-AE during the surveillance term in this study and the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and ILD using a modified ILD-GAP (ILD-NSCLC-GAP) index scoring system. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of patients with NSCLC and ILD who underwent a pulmonary function test before initiation of platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment at the Shizuoka Cancer Center between September 2002 and December 2014 were reviewed retrospectively. Among these patients, we compared the incidence of ILD-AE, one-year survival rate, and overall survival (OS) between the ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scores and stages. RESULTS Of the 78 patients included, 21 (27%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 18%-38%) had ILD-AE during the surveillance term in this study. The one-year survival and median OS rates were 49% and 11.3 months, respectively. The incidence of ILD-AE increased gradually and the one-year survival and median OS rates decreased gradually with increasing ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scores and stages. CONCLUSION The ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scoring and staging system may be a useful tool to calculate a prediction of the incidence of ILD-AE and its prognosis for patients with NSCLC and ILD.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a risk factor for lung cancer development and is frequently observed in patients with lung cancer. Individuals with ILD have been excluded from most prospective clinical trials of lung cancer therapies because of the risk of ILD acute exacerbation. Thus, the optimal anticancer drug treatment for such patients has yet to be established. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are avoided for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with ILD because of the concern of acute exacerbation, and information on the effects of immune-checkpoint inhibitors is limited in these patients. Only three prospective single-arm studies of cytotoxic chemotherapies for advanced lung cancer with ILD have been reported. Based on the results of these studies and those of retrospective analyses, carboplatin and either paclitaxel or nab-paclitaxel are often selected in daily clinical practice for patients with NSCLC and ILD, whereas platinum plus etoposide is selected for those with small cell lung cancer and ILD. Although the antitumor activity of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy appears similar in advanced lung cancer patients with and without ILD, its impact on overall survival of the former patients is limited. The risks and benefits of chemotherapy must therefore be carefully explained before treatment initiation, and careful follow-up is necessary for such patients, especially those with the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern, a risk factor for chemotherapy-related exacerbation. Prospective clinical studies with large patient populations are still required to establish the appropriate treatments for advanced lung cancer with ILD.

Abstract
We herein report the rare case of co-occurring dermatomyositis (DM), interstitial pneumonia (IP), and lung cancer in a 59-year-old man. Computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography-CT showed the presence of a left lung tumor with IP, which was diagnosed as lung adenocarcinoma by a CT-guided tumor biopsy. We diagnosed DM based on the presence of myalgia, Gottron's papules, and anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase antibody positivity in the patient. Co-occurrence of the above-mentioned three diseases is rare, and acute exacerbation of IP is a major cause of death in such cases. These patients can be treated with immunosuppressive therapy followed by chemotherapy.

Abstract
We describe the treatment rationale and procedure for a randomized study (J-SONIC; University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry identification no., UMIN000026799) of carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) with or without nintedanib for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The study was designed to examine the efficacy and safety of nintedanib administered with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel versus carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel alone in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced NSCLC associated with IPF. Eligible patients (enrollment target, n = 170) will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive 4 cycles of carboplatin (area under the curve, 6 on day 1) plus nab-paclitaxel (100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15) administered every 3 weeks either without (arm A) or with (arm B) nintedanib (150 mg twice daily), to be followed in arm B by single-agent administration of nintedanib (150 mg twice daily). The present trial is the first randomized controlled study for the treatment of NSCLC associated with IPF. The goal of the study is to demonstrate that nintedanib combined with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel prolongs the interval to acute exacerbation of IPF compared with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation (AE) of interstitial lung disease (ILD) is observed in certain patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have ILD. Although the prognosis of AE-ILD is extremely poor, there are no established risk factors for its occurrence. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated whether high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings could identify risk factors for AE-ILD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2005 and December 2016, 35 patients with NSCLC who received chemotherapy at Hiroshima University Hospital and were diagnosed with ILD on HRCT were enrolled. The extent of ground-glass attenuation (GGA), reticulation, honeycomb appearance, and emphysema, as well as the presence of micronodules, traction bronchiectasis, and consolidation were evaluated in five levels of the lung bilaterally. The HRCT scores of GGA, reticulation, honeycomb appearance, and emphysema were determined by the following formula: 100 × sum of the extent of the HRCT findings/lung area. RESULTS Thirty-five patients underwent various first- to fifth-line chemotherapy regimens. Nine patients (25.7%) developed AE-ILD. The median HRCT scores of GGA and reticulation were significantly higher in patients with AE-ILD than in those without. On univariate analysis, a GGA area score ≥ 24.8, reticulation area score ≥ 19.5, and KL-6 level ≥ 946 U/mL were significant risk factors. Multivariate logistic analysis revealed that only a GGA area score ≥ 24.8 was an independent risk factor of AE-ILD. CONCLUSIONS The GGA area on HRCT is a risk factor for chemotherapy-related AE-ILD. Therefore, this parameter can be used to predict the risk of AE-ILD before administering chemotherapy.

Abstract
There are few established treatments for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The safety and efficacy of albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in combination with carboplatin is uncertain, although the combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel is the most common regimen for treating NSCLC patients with ILD. A total of 9 NSCLC patients with ILD, treated between April 2013 and March 2016, were retrospectively investigated. Carboplatin (AUC 5-6) was administered on day 1 and nab-paclitaxel on days 1, 8 and 15, every 4-6 weeks. The median age of the patients upon initiating chemotherapy was 67 years. The pathological examination revealed 6 patients with squamous cell carcinoma, and 6 patients exhibited the typical pattern of ILD. The response rate was 55.6%, and the median progression-free and overall survival time was 174 and 344 days, respectively. Acute exacerbation of ILD was not observed in any of the patients, and febrile neutropenia developed in 3 patients (3/9, 33.3%). Thus, treatment with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel was found to be safe and effective for NSCLC patients with ILD, although management of hematological adverse events, such as febrile neutropenia, was required. However, these encouraging results require confirmation by a large-scale clinical trial.

Analysis of acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease associated with chemotherapy in patients with lung cancer: A feasibility of S-1. Respir Investig 2016; 55:145-152. [PMID: 28274530 DOI: 10.1016/j.resinv.2016.10.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2015] [Revised: 10/17/2016] [Accepted: 10/30/2016] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is commonly concomitant with lung cancer, and its acute exacerbation (AE) is the most serious complication in patients receiving treatment for lung cancer. METHODS To investigate the incidence and characteristic features of AE of ILD, we conducted a retrospective study of 665 consecutive patients with lung cancer who were treated at our institute between 2008 and 2014. RESULTS Among the 665 patients, 74 (11.1%) had preexisting ILD, and 64 of them received chemotherapy. Four of the 64 patients (6.3%) had experienced AE of ILD, and two (3.1%) died of respiratory failure during first-line chemotherapy. The use of a combination of carboplatin with tegafur-gimeracil-oteracil potassium (S-1) or paclitaxel as a first-line chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer led to a lower frequency of AE, at 8.3% (1/12) and 9.1% (1/11), respectively. The incidence of AE rose to 12.8% (5/39) during second-line treatment, and 14 (total: 15 times) of the 64 patients (21.9%) experienced AE from the time of diagnosis to the end of treatment. The incidence of AE was 17.7% (6/34), 15.8% (3/19), 5.0% (2/40), and 4.2% (1/24) in the paclitaxel-, vinorelbine-, etoposide-, and S-1-containing regimens, respectively. No difference in clinical features and laboratory data was detected between the AE and non-AE groups. CONCLUSIONS Although this was a small retrospective study, its findings showed that S-1 and etoposide may be relatively safe options for the treatment of patients with lung cancer and concomitant ILD.
