Dinkel J, Kneidinger N, Tarantino P. The radiologist's role in detecting systemic anticancer therapy-related interstitial lung disease: an educational review. Insights Imaging 2024; 15:191. [PMID: 39090512 PMCID: PMC11294314 DOI: 10.1186/s13244-024-01771-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Systemic anticancer therapies (SACTs) are the leading cause of drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD). As more novel SACTs become approved, the incidence of this potentially life-threatening adverse event (AE) may increase. Early detection of SACT-related ILD allows for prompt implementation of drug-specific management recommendations, improving the likelihood of AE resolution and, in some instances, widening the patient's eligibility for future cancer treatment options. ILD requires a diagnosis of exclusion through collaboration with the patient's multidisciplinary team to rule out other possible etiologies of new or worsening respiratory signs and symptoms. At Grade 1, ILD is asymptomatic, and thus the radiologist is key to detecting the AE prior to the disease severity worsening. Planned computed tomography scans should be reviewed for the presence of ILD in addition to being assessed for tumor response to treatment, and when ILD is suspected, a high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan should be requested immediately. An HRCT scan, with < 2-mm slice thickness, is the most appropriate method for detecting ILD. Multiple patterns of ILD exist, which can impact patient prognosis. The four main patterns include acute interstitial pneumonia / acute respiratory distress syndrome, organizing pneumonia, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and non-specific interstitial pneumonia; their distinct radiological features, along with rarer patterns, are discussed here. Furthermore, HRCT is essential for following the course of ILD and might help to determine the intensity of AE management and the appropriateness of re-challenging with SACT, where indicated by drug-specific prescribing information. ILD events should be monitored closely until complete resolution. CRITICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT: The incidence of potentially treatment-limiting and life-threatening systemic anticancer therapy-related interstitial lung disease (SACT-related ILD) events is likely increasing as more novel regimens become approved. This review provides best-practice recommendations for the early detection of SACT-related ILD by radiologists. KEY POINTS: Radiologists are crucial in detecting asymptomatic (Grade 1) ILD before severity/prognosis worsens. High-resolution computed tomography is the most appropriate method for detecting ILD. Drug-induced ILD is a diagnosis of exclusion, involving a multidisciplinary team. Familiarity with common HRCT patterns, described here, is key for prompt detection. Physicians should highlight systemic anticancer therapies (SACTs) with a known risk for interstitial lung diseases (ILD) on scan requisitions.

Usefulness of Quantification and Serial Monitoring of Fine Crackles for Early Detection of Treatment-related Lung Injury: A Report of Two Cases. Intern Med 2024; 63:1783-1787. [PMID: 37866919 PMCID: PMC11239243 DOI: 10.2169/internalmedicine.2387-23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Early detection and appropriate management of treatment-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) are important in cancer treatment. We established an algorithm for quantifying fine crackles using machine learning and reported that the fine crackle quantitative value (FCQV) calculated by this algorithm was more sensitive than chest radiography for detecting interstitial changes. Using this algorithm, we periodically analyzed respiratory sounds in two patients with lung cancer who developed treatment-related ILDs and found that the FCQV was elevated before the diagnosis of ILD. These cases may indicate the usefulness of the FCQV in the early diagnosis of treatment-related ILDs.

Abstract
Tithonia diversifolia is a perennial bushy plant found in South America with significant ethnopharmacological importance as an antimalarial, antidiabetic, antibacterial, and anticancer agent. The aim of the present study was to determine the cytotoxicity of the ethanolic extract from leaves of T. diversifolia (TdE) on human cancer cell lines (HCT-116, SNB-19, NCIH-460 and MCF-7), as well as the mechanism of action involved in cell death and cellular modulation of oxidative stress. The TdE exhibited significant activity with IC50 values ranging from 7.12 to 38.41 μg/ml, with HCT-116 being the most sensitive cell line. Subsequent experiments were conducted with HCT-116 cell line. TdE decreased the number of viable cells, followed by induction of apoptotic events, increase in mitochondrial membrane permeabilization, and enhanced G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Pro-oxidative effects including elevated acidic vesicular organelle formation, lipid peroxidation, and nitric oxide by-products, as well as reduced levels of intracellular glutathione and reactive oxygen species production were also observed following incubation with TdE, which may lead to DNA damage followed by apoptotic cell death. These results demonstrate the potential of TdE ethanolic leaf extraction for biological activity and enhance the importance of continuing to study natural sources of plants for the development of anticancer agents.

Pan-cancer assessment of antineoplastic therapy-induced interstitial lung disease in patients receiving subsequent therapy immediately following immune checkpoint blockade therapy. Respir Res 2024; 25:25. [PMID: 38200501 PMCID: PMC10777633 DOI: 10.1186/s12931-024-02683-8] [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: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) is a serious adverse event potentially induced by any antineoplastic agent. Whether cancer patients are predisposed to a higher risk of DIILD after receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is unknown. METHODS This study retrospectively assessed the cumulative incidence of DIILD in consecutive cancer patients who received post-ICI antineoplastic treatment within 6 months from the final dose of ICIs. There was also a separate control cohort of 55 ICI-naïve patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received docetaxel. RESULTS Of 552 patients who received ICIs, 186 met the inclusion criteria. The cohort predominantly comprised patients with cancer of the lung, kidney/urinary tract, or gastrointestinal tract. The cumulative incidence of DIILD in the entire cohort at 3 and 6 months was 4.9% (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.4%-8.7%) and 7.2% (95% CI 4.0%-11.5%), respectively. There were significant differences according to cancer type (Gray's test, P = .04), with the highest cumulative incidence of DIILD in patients with lung cancer being 9.8% (95% CI 4.3%-18.0%) at 3 months and 14.2% (95% CI 7.3%-23.3%) at 6 months. DIILD was caused by docetaxel in six of these 11 lung cancer patients (54.5%). After matching, the cumulative incidence of docetaxel-induced ILD in patients with NSCLC in the post-ICI setting was higher than that in the ICI-naïve setting: 13.0% (95% CI 3.3%-29.7%) vs 4.3% (95% CI 0.3%-18.2%) at 3 months; and 21.7% (95% CI 7.9%-39.9%) vs 4.3% (95% CI 0.3%-18.2%) at 6 months. However, these were not significant differences (hazard ratio, 5.37; 95% CI 0.64-45.33; Fine-Gray P = .12). CONCLUSIONS Patients with lung cancer were at high risk of developing DIILD in subsequent regimens after ICI treatment. Whether NSCLC patients are predisposed to additional risk of docetaxel-induced ILD by prior ICIs warrants further study.

Late Toxicity and Health-Related Quality of Life Following Definitive Chemoradiotherapy for Esophageal Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys 2023; 117:31-44. [PMID: 37224927 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijrobp.2023.05.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Definitive chemoradiotherapy (dCRT) is a treatment option with curative intent for patients with esophageal cancer that could result in late toxicities and affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL). This study aimed to review the literature and perform a meta-analysis to investigate the effect of dCRT on late toxicities and HRQoL in esophageal cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS A systematic search was performed in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PsychINFO. Prospective phase II and III clinical trials, population-based studies, and retrospective chart reviews investigating late toxicity or HRQoL after dCRT (≥50 Gy) were included. The HRQoL outcomes were analyzed using linear mixed-effect models with restricted cubic spline transformation. Any HRQoL changes of ≥10 points were considered clinically relevant. The risk of toxicities was calculated using the number of events and the total study population. RESULTS Among 41 included studies, 10 assessed HRQoL and 31 late toxicity. Global health status remained stable over time and improved after 36 months compared with baseline (mean change, +11). Several tumor-specific symptoms, including dysphagia, eating restrictions, and pain, improved after 6 months compared with baseline. Compared with baseline, dyspnea worsened after 6 months (mean change, +16 points). The risk of any late toxicity was 48% (95% CI, 33%-64%). Late toxicity risk of any grade for the esophagus was 17% (95% CI, 12%-21%), pulmonary 21% (95% CI, 11%-31%), cardiac 12% (95% CI, 6%-17%), and any other organ 24% (95% CI, 2%-45%). CONCLUSIONS Global health status remained stable over time, and tumor-specific symptoms improved within 6 months after dCRT compared with baseline, with the exception of dyspnea. In addition, substantial risks of late toxicity were observed.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the situation of antineoplastic agents-induced interstitial lung diseases (ILD), provide reference for strengthening clinical management of druginduced interstitial lung diseases (DILD). Methods: We retrospectively investigated the medical records of 12 patients with antineoplastic agents-induced ILD in a hospital between January and December 2020. Data collected included patients' characteristic (gender, age, ECOG PS score, smoking history, primary tumor, concurrent diseases or complications.) and treatment conditions (DILD-causing drugs, clinical symptoms, chest CT, DILD treatment drugs, onset cycle, onset time, severity of DILD, DILD course and prognosis.). Results: The median age of 12 DILD cases was 68%, 66.67% of the patients were male, lung cancer accounted for 58.33% (7/12). DILD was induced by cytotoxicity drugs, targeted drugs and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), of which ICIs accounted for 66.67% (8/12). Scattered patchy, cord-like, grid-like or flocculent shadows were observed on chest CT, mainly under the pleura of lungs. Once DILD occurs, the suspected antineoplastic agents were stopped and glucocorticoid was given, among which 83.33% (10/12) patients were treated with antibiotics. Finally, 16.67% (2/12) were cured, 33.33% (4/12) were improved, 16.67% (2/12) were not cured and 33.33% (4/12) were dead. Conclusion: Antineoplastic agents-induced ILD is mostly found in elderly male lung cancer patients with smoking history. The clinical symptoms of DILD are diverse and lack of specificity. ICIs-ILD has the characteristic of high incidence and poor prognosis compared with other antineoplastic agents. Comprehensive evaluation before medication, regular review, early and adequate glucocorticoid shock therapy after onset can improve the prognosis of DILD patients.
