Abstract
PURPOSE Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is an obstacle for patients after surgery following induction chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC). We performed a comparative analysis of the association between clinicopathological factors, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and prognosis, in LA-NSCLC patients with or without RP during induction chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery. METHODS The subjects of this analysis were 168 patients undergoing trimodality therapy for LA-NSCLC between January, 1999 and May, 2019. Patients were divided into two groups: the RP group (n = 41) and the non-RP group (n = 127). We compared the clinicopathological factors including the NLR between the groups and analyzed the association between the NLR and prognosis. RESULTS The RP group had more patients with tumors located in the lower lobe, more bilobar resections, shorter operative times, no implementation of postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and a higher postoperative NLR than the non-RP group. There were no significant differences in serious postoperative complications and the prognosis. Patients with a low postoperative NLR had a significantly better prognosis in the non-RP group, and a trend toward a better prognosis even in the RP group. CONCLUSION Postoperative NLR may be a useful prognostic factor, even for patients who suffer RP after trimodality therapy for LA-NSCLC.

Ann Surg Oncol 2023; 30:8727-8734. [PMID: 37658268 PMCID: PMC10625945 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14176-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/31/2023] [Indexed: 09/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) in tumor tissue has been related to the prognosis in various malignancies. Meanwhile, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) as a systemic inflammation marker also has been associated with the prognosis in them. However, few reports have investigated the relationship between pulmonary metastases from sarcoma and these biomarkers. METHODS We retrospectively recruited 102 patients undergoing metastasectomy for pulmonary metastases from uterine leiomyosarcoma at Okayama University Hospital from January 2006 to December 2019. TILs and TLSs were evaluated by immunohistochemical staining of surgically resected specimens of pulmonary metastases using anti-CD3/CD8/CD103/Foxp3/CD20 antibodies. NLR was calculated from the blood examination immediately before the most recent pulmonary metastasectomy. We elucidated the relationship between the prognosis and these factors. Because we considered that the status of tumor tissue and systemic inflammation were equally valuable, we also assessed the impact of the combination of TILs or TLSs and NLR on the prognosis. RESULTS As for TILs, CD3-positive cells and CD8-positive cells were correlated with the prognosis. The prognosis was significantly better in patients with CD3-high group, CD8-high group, TLSs-high group, and NLR-low group, respectively. The prognosis of CD8-high/NLR-low group and TLSs-high/NLR-low group was significantly better than that of CD8-low/NLR-high group and TLSs-low/NLR-high group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS CD3-positive TILs, CD8-positive TILs, TLSs, and NLR are correlated with the prognosis, respectively. The combination of CD8-positive TILs or TLSs and NLR may be the indicators to predict the prognosis of patients with pulmonary metastases from uterine leiomyosarcoma.

Systemic Inflammatory Indices in Second-Line Soft Tissue Sarcoma Patients: Focus on Lymphocyte/Monocyte Ratio and Trabectedin. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15041080. [PMID: 36831421 PMCID: PMC9954182 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15041080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 01/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/11/2023] Open
Abstract
A second-line standard of treatment has not yet been identified in patients with soft tissue sarcomas (STS), so identifying predictive markers could be a valuable tool. Recent studies have shown that the intratumoral and inflammatory systems significantly influence tumor aggressiveness. We aimed to investigate prognostic values of pre-therapy neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), systemic inflammatory index (SII), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) of STS patients receiving second-line treatment. In this single-center retrospective analysis, ninety-nine patients with STS were enrolled. All patients received second-line treatment after progressing to anthracycline. PFS and OS curves were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method of RNA sequencing, and CIBERSORT analysis was performed on six surgical specimens of liposarcoma patients. A high NLR, PLR, and SII were significantly associated with worse PFS (p = 0.019; p = 0.004; p = 0.006). Low LMR was significantly associated with worse OS (p = 0.006). Patients treated with Trabectedin showed a better PFS when the LMR was low, while patients treated with other regimens showed a worse PFS when the LMR was low (p = 0.0154). The intratumoral immune infiltrates analysis seems to show a correlation between intratumoral macrophages and LMR. PS ECOG. The metastatic onset and tumor burden showed prognostic significance for PFS (p = 0.004; p = 0.041; p = 0.0086). According to the histologies, PFS was: 5.7 mo in liposarcoma patients vs. 3.8 mo in leiomyosarcoma patients vs. 3.1 months in patients with other histologies (p = 0.053). Our results confirm the prognostic role of systemic inflammatory markers in patients with STS. Moreover, we demonstrated that LMR is a specific predictor of Trabectedin efficacy and could be useful in daily clinical practice. We also highlighted a possible correlation between LMR levels and the percentage of intratumoral macrophages.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metastatic sarcoma confers a grave prognosis to patients and poses a management dilemma for clinicians. Pulmonary metastasectomy is frequently performed for the recurrence of sarcomatous tumours in the lung, but the evidence-base is poor. No guidelines exist to inform clinicians on appropriate patient selection and surgical technique. AIM This review aims to establish and analyse the most important prognostic factors for survival post pulmonary metastasectomy for recurrent sarcoma. We summarise the key tumour, peri-operative and patient characteristics that should guide surgical management. METHODS A comprehensive search of the literature utilising OVID Medline and PubMed databases was conducted to identify all relevant research within the past 15 years. We evaluated all articles that specifically studied sarcoma patients (both bone and soft tissue). CONCLUSION Disease-free interval and tumour burden remain important prognostic factors, while tumour grade is likely not significant. VATS is a safe and viable alternative to thoracotomy without sacrificing survival outcomes. No single peri-operative characteristic provides useful prognostic information in isolation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soft-tissue sarcomas are rare malignancies that consist of many different histologic subtypes and arise in various locations in the body. In patients with lung metastases from retroperitoneal sarcomas, the long-term outcomes and prognostic factors are unknown. This study is a retrospective review of patients undergoing pulmonary metastasectomy for retroperitoneal sarcoma metastases at one institution, with the purpose of determining prognostic factors and clinical outcomes. METHODS This is a single-center, retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing pulmonary metastasectomy for lung metastases from various sarcomas at Okayama University Hospital from January 2006 to December 2018. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used for the analyses, and cut-off values of continuous variables were determined by a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS Twenty-four patients underwent the first pulmonary metastasectomy for lung metastases from retroperitoneal sarcoma in our hospital. Leiomyosarcoma was the most common histologic subtype of retroperitoneal sarcoma (79.2%, n = 19). Median overall survival was 49.9 months, and the 3-year and 5-year survival rates after the first pulmonary metastasectomy were 62.5% and 26.4% respectively. In univariate analysis, age ≥56 years, disease-free interval < 15 months, and size of metastasis (≥ 27 mm) were associated with poor survival. CONCLUSION Pulmonary metastasectomy can be considered as an effective management strategy in retroperitoneal sarcoma patients with lung metastases in appropriately selected cases, just as it is for other sarcomas.

Abstract
PURPOSE Current evidence suggests that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a prognostic factor in several types of cancer. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of clinicopathological factors, including postoperative NLR, in patients with locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC) who underwent surgery after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with or without postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS The medical records of LA-NSCLC patients treated with trimodality therapy at our institution between June 1999 and May 2019 were reviewed. The association between several clinicopathological factors and overall survival (OS) was analyzed. RESULTS A total of 168 patients were included in this study. Regarding the prognosis, the 5-year OS rate was 68.1%, and the 2-year recurrence-free survival rate was 66.1% in the entire population. In multivariate analysis, we identified that high postoperative NLR, not pretreatment or preoperative NLR, was one of the independent factors for unfavorable OS (NLR high vs NLR low; hazard ratio = 2.45, 95% confidence interval: 1.53-3.94, p < 0.001). In addition, among patients with high postoperative NLR, patients who received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy showed significantly better 5-year OS compared with those who did not (p = 0.016). On the other hand, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy had no impact on the prognosis in patients with low NLR (p = 0.19). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that high postoperative NLR was not only an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in patients with LA-NSCLC who were treated with trimodality therapy, but also a promising indicator for postoperative treatment in this population.

A Simple Prognostic Benefit Scoring System for Sarcoma Patients with Pulmonary Metastases: Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score. Ann Surg Oncol 2020; 28:3884-3890. [PMID: 33236252 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-020-09272-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2020] [Accepted: 10/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary metastasectomy could be considered one of the treatment options for disease control in sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases; however, there is little consensus regarding the suitable criteria for predicting the likely outcomes in these patients. The aim of this study was to establish a prognostic benefit scoring system based on preoperatively examined prognostic factors for sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases. METHODS This was a single-center, retrospective cohort study conducted in a cohort of 135 sarcoma patients who underwent a first pulmonary metastasectomy at Okayama University Hospital between January 2006 and December 2015. Based on the results of a multivariable logistic regression analysis performed to determine the factors influencing 3-year mortality, a Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score was created and its correlation with 3-year survival was analyzed. RESULTS The results of the multivariate analysis revealed significant differences in the disease-free interval (< 2 years vs. ≥ 2 years; odds ratio (OR) 4.22, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.67-10.70), maximum tumor diameter (≥ 15 mm vs. < 15 mm; OR 3.86, 95% CI 1.75-8.52), and number of pulmonary metastases (≥ 6 vs. < 6; OR 2.65, 95% CI 1.06-6.620). The Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score, which was defined as the total score of these three factors, reliably predicted 3-year survival (score: 0, 89.5%; 1, 63.2%; 2, 39.0%; 3, 10.5%). CONCLUSIONS Our newly proposed simple Sarcoma Lung Metastasis Score appears to be a useful prognostic predictor for sarcoma patients with pulmonary metastases, in that it could be helpful for the selection of appropriate treatments for these patients.
