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.

Identification of kynurenine and quinolinic acid as promising serum biomarkers for drug-induced interstitial lung diseases. Respir Res 2024; 25:31.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) is a lung injury caused by various types of drugs and is a serious problem in both clinical practice and drug development. Clinical management of the condition would be improved if there were DILD-specific biomarkers available; this study aimed to meet that need. METHODS Biomarker candidates were identified by non-targeted metabolomics focusing on hydrophilic molecules, and further validated by targeted approaches using the serum of acute DILD patients, DILD recovery patients, DILD-tolerant patients, patients with other related lung diseases, and healthy controls. RESULTS Serum levels of kynurenine and quinolinic acid (and kynurenine/tryptophan ratio) were elevated significantly and specifically in acute DILD patients. The diagnostic potentials of these biomarkers were superior to those of conventional lung injury biomarkers, Krebs von den Lungen-6 and surfactant protein-D, in discriminating between acute DILD patients and patients with other lung diseases, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and lung diseases associated with connective tissue diseases. In addition to identifying and evaluating the biomarkers, our data showed that kynurenine/tryptophan ratios (an indicator of kynurenine pathway activation) were positively correlated with serum C-reactive protein concentrations in patients with DILD, suggesting the potential association between the generation of these biomarkers and inflammation. Our in vitro experiments demonstrated that macrophage differentiation and inflammatory stimulations typified by interferon gamma could activate the kynurenine pathway, resulting in enhanced kynurenine levels in the extracellular space in macrophage-like cell lines or lung endothelial cells. Extracellular quinolinic acid levels were elevated only in macrophage-like cells but not endothelial cells owing to the lower expression levels of metabolic enzymes converting kynurenine to quinolinic acid. These findings provide clues about the molecular mechanisms behind their specific elevation in the serum of acute DILD patients. CONCLUSIONS The serum concentrations of kynurenine and quinolinic acid as well as kynurenine/tryptophan ratios are promising and specific biomarkers for detecting and monitoring DILD and its recovery, which could facilitate accurate decisions for appropriate clinical management of patients with DILD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is increasing in incidence, due to the use of many new drugs across a broad range of cancers and chronic inflammatory diseases. The presentation and onset of DI-ILD are variable even for the same drug across different individuals. Clinical suspicion is essential for identifying these conditions, with timely drug cessation an important determinant of outcomes. AREAS COVERED This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date summary of epidemiology, risk factors, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of DI-ILD. Relevant research articles from PubMed and Medline searches up to September 2023 were screened and summarized. Specific drugs including immune checkpoint inhibitors, CAR-T cell therapy, methotrexate, and amiodarone are discussed in detail. The potential role of pharmacogenomic profiling for lung toxicity risk is considered. EXPERT OPINION DI-ILD is likely to be an increasingly important contributor to respiratory disability in the community. These conditions can negatively impact quality of life and patient longevity, due to associated respiratory compromise as well as cessation of evidence-based therapy for the underlying disease. This clinical conundrum is relevant to all areas of medicine, necessitating increased understanding and greater vigilance for drug-related lung toxicity.

Curr Oncol 2023; 30:8019-8038.

Abstract
Ongoing advances in precision cancer therapy have increased the number of molecularly targeted and immuno-oncology agents for a variety of cancers, many of which have been associated with a risk of pulmonary complications, among the most concerning being drug-induced interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis (DI-ILD). As the number of patients undergoing treatment with novel anticancer agents continues to grow, DI-ILD is expected to become an increasingly significant clinical challenge. Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody-drug conjugate targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 that is gaining widespread use in the metastatic breast cancer setting and is undergoing exploration for other oncologic indications. ILD/pneumonitis is an adverse event of special interest associated with T-DXd, which has potentially fatal consequences if left untreated and allowed to progress. When identified in the asymptomatic stage (grade 1), T-DXd-related ILD can be monitored and treated effectively with the possibility of treatment continuation. Delayed diagnosis and/or treatment, however, results in progression to grade 2 or higher toxicity and necessitates immediate and permanent discontinuation of this active agent. Strategies are, therefore, needed to optimize careful monitoring during treatment to ensure patient safety and optimize outcomes. Several guidance documents have been developed regarding strategies for the early identification and management of T-DXd-related ILD, although none have been within the context of the Canadian health care environment. A Canadian multidisciplinary steering committee was, therefore, convened to evaluate existing recommendations and adapt them for application in Canada. A multidisciplinary approach involving collaboration among medical oncologists, radiologists, respirologists, and allied health care professionals is needed to ensure the proactive identification and management of T-DXd-related ILD and DI-ILD associated with other agents with a similar toxicity profile.

Abstract
Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is an antibody drug conjugate with a topoisomerase I payload that targets the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). T-DXd is approved for patients with previously treated HER2-positive or HER2-low (immunohistochemistry [IHC] 1+ or IHC 2+/ISH-) metastatic/unresectable breast cancer (BC). In a second-line HER2-positive metastatic BC (mBC) population (DESTINY-Breast03 [ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03529110]), T-DXd demonstrated significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) over ado-trastuzumab emtansine (12-month rate: 75.8% v 34.1%; hazard ratio, 0.28; P < .001), and in patients with HER2-low mBC treated with one prior line of chemotherapy (DESTINY-Breast04 [ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03734029]), T-DXd demonstrated significantly longer PFS and overall survival than physician's choice chemotherapy (10.1 v 5.4 months; hazard ratio, 0.51; P < .001, and 23.4 v 16.8 months; hazard ratio, 0.64; P < .001, respectively).Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an umbrella term used for a group of diseases characterized by lung injury including pneumonitis, which can lead to irreversible lung fibrosis. ILD is a well-described adverse event associated with certain anticancer therapies, including T-DXd. An important part of T-DXd therapy for mBC consists of monitoring for and managing ILD. Although information on ILD management strategies is included in the prescribing information, additional information on patient selection, monitoring, and treatment can be beneficial in routine clinical practice. The objective of this review is to describe real-world, multidisciplinary clinical practices and institutional protocols used for patient selection/screening, monitoring, and management related to T-DXd-associated ILD.

Abstract
Recently accumulated evidence implicates a close association of vitamin D (VitD) insufficiency to the incidence and clinical manifestations of the COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV-2). Populations with insufficient VitD including patients with osteoporosis are more susceptible to SARS-COV-2 infection and patients with COVID-19 worsened or developed osteoporosis. It is currently unknown, however, whether osteoporosis and COVID-19 are linked by VitD insufficiency. In this study, 42 common targets for VitD on both COVID-19 and osteoporosis were identified among a total of 243 VitD targets. Further bioinformatic analysis revealed 8 core targets (EGFR, AR, ESR1, MAPK8, MDM2, EZH2, ERBB2 and MAPT) in the VitD-COVID-19-osteoporosis network. These targets are involved in the ErbB and MAPK signaling pathways critical for lung fibrosis, bone structural integrity, and cytokines through a crosstalk between COVID-19 and osteoporosis via the VitD-mediated conventional immune and osteoimmune mechanisms. Molecular docking confirmed that VitD binds tightly to the predicted targets. These findings support that VitD may target common signaling pathways in the integrated network of lung fibrosis and bone structural integrity as well as the immune systems. Therefore, VitD may serve as a preventive and therapeutic agent for both COVID-19 and osteoporosis.

Modeling Kaempferol as a Potential Pharmacological Agent for COVID-19/PF Co-Occurrence Based on Bioinformatics and System Pharmacological Tools. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:865097. [PMID: 35754492 PMCID: PMC9214245 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.865097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 04/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: People suffering from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are prone to develop pulmonary fibrosis (PF), but there is currently no definitive treatment for COVID-19/PF co-occurrence. Kaempferol with promising antiviral and anti-fibrotic effects is expected to become a potential treatment for COVID-19 and PF comorbidities. Therefore, this study explored the targets and molecular mechanisms of kaempferol against COVID-19/PF co-occurrence by bioinformatics and network pharmacology. Methods: Various open-source databases and Venn Diagram tool were applied to confirm the targets of kaempferol against COVID-19/PF co-occurrence. Protein-protein interaction (PPI), MCODE, key transcription factors, tissue-specific enrichment, molecular docking, Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were used to clarify the influential molecular mechanisms of kaempferol against COVID-19 and PF comorbidities. Results: 290 targets and 203 transcription factors of kaempferol against COVID-19/PF co-occurrence were captured. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase SRC (SRC), mitogen-activated protein kinase 3 (MAPK3), mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1), mitogen-activated protein kinase 8 (MAPK8), RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase (AKT1), transcription factor p65 (RELA) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit alpha isoform (PIK3CA) were identified as the most critical targets, and kaempferol showed effective binding activities with the above critical eight targets. Further, anti-COVID-19/PF co-occurrence effects of kaempferol were associated with the regulation of inflammation, oxidative stress, immunity, virus infection, cell growth process and metabolism. EGFR, interleukin 17 (IL-17), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), phosphoinositide 3-kinase/AKT serine/threonine kinase (PI3K/AKT) and Toll-like receptor signaling pathways were identified as the key anti-COVID-19/PF co-occurrence pathways. Conclusion: Kaempferol is a candidate treatment for COVID-19/PF co-occurrence. The underlying mechanisms may be related to the regulation of critical targets (EGFR, SRC, MAPK3, MAPK1, MAPK8, AKT1, RELA, PIK3CA and so on) and EGFR, IL-17, TNF, HIF-1, PI3K/AKT and Toll-like receptor signaling pathways. This study contributes to guiding development of new drugs for COVID-19 and PF comorbidities.

Incidence and prognostic factors in severe drug-induced interstitial lung disease caused by antineoplastic drug therapy in the real world. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2022; 148:1737-1746. [PMID: 35129672 PMCID: PMC9189085 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-022-03932-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Investigate the frequency and prognostic factors of severe drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) caused by antineoplastic drugs regardless of cancer types or type of drugs. Methods From 2014 to 2018, we reviewed patients with a history of antineoplastic agents administration in the real-world database of our hospital's electronic medical record and extracted patients who experienced "severe" DILD, requiring hospitalization with treatment or developed during hospitalization and required treatment. We collected patients' backgrounds, clinical and radiological features, laboratory data, treatment, and survival outcomes. Results 19,132 cancer patients received antineoplastic drug therapy during the study period, and 120 (0.62%) experienced severe DILD. The incidence of severe DILD in patients with thoracic cancer was highest among the patients included in this analysis (2.52% vs. 0.34% other cancers). Diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) pattern on CT was associated with higher mortality in patients with severe DILD compared with non-DAD pattern (hazard ratio [HR], 11.24; 95% CI, 4.82–26.2). Multivariate analysis revealed that the DAD pattern at diagnosis as severe DILD (HR, 3.59; 95% CI, 1.17–11.03), concurrent/previous interstitial lung disease (HR, 3.20; 95% CI, 1.27–8.10), and ECOG performance status of 2–4 (HR, 3.81; 95% CI, 1.10–13.17) were independent risk factors for mortality in patients with severe DILD. Conclusions The frequency of severe DILD was highest in patients with thoracic cancer. The DAD pattern was associated with a poor outcome. From the perspective of DILD, special attention should be paid when administering antineoplastic agents to patients with thoracic cancer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Drug-induced pulmonary toxicity (DIPT) associated with breast cancer (BC) therapy has been a major concern in recent times. DIPT may not be attributed to a single type of therapy because of the concomitant use of other anticancer drugs or along with radiotherapy, which is an independent risk factor for pulmonary toxicity. AREAS COVERED In this systematic literature review, we evaluated the probable cause and prevalence of DIPT in various systemic therapies used in BC treatment. A literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane database, up to October 2020. Clinical studies reporting DIPT and related clinical manifestations due to systemic therapy in BC treatment were included. A total of 1749 articles were retrieved, and 193 articles were included. EXPERT OPINION : The leading cause of DIPT among patients with BC was targeted therapy followed by chemotherapy containing regimens. A total of 17 studies reported 35 deaths (15 deaths in chemotherapy) due to DIPT. Physicians must take extra precaution while prescribing systemic therapy known to be associated with DIPT and need to be familiar with early diagnosis of DIPT in order to avoid respiratory-related complications during treatment in BC patients.

Abstract
Background Nivolumab, an anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, has shown survival benefit in clinical trials of various malignant tumors. Nivolumab-induced pneumonitis is major immune-related adverse event (irAE) that is occasionally serious and life-threatening. The aim of this study was to examine the association between pre-existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) on chest computed tomography (CT) and nivolumab-induced pneumonitis among different types of solid tumors. Methods We retrospectively collected the clinical data of 311 patients who were diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck cancer (HNC), or gastric cancer (GC), and treated with nivolumab monotherapy. Patients who underwent chest CT immediately before starting nivolumab without previous thoracic radiotherapy or other immune checkpoint inhibitors were eligible. We collected baseline patient characteristics and assessed pre-existing ILD on baseline chest CT. Results Finally, 188 patients were included in the analysis: 96 patients with NSCLC, 43 patients with HNC, and 49 patients with GC. NSCLC patients had a significantly higher rate of pre-existing ILD compared with HNC/GC patients (P = 0.047). Nivolumab-induced pneumonitis occurred in 11.7% (22 of 188), including 14.6% (14 of 96) of NSCLC, and 8.7% (8 of 92) of HNC/GC. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that pre-existing ILD (odds ratio, 5.92; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.07–18.54, P = 0.0008) and male sex (odds ratio, 5.58; 95% CI, 1.01–104.40, P = 0.049) significantly increased the risk of nivolumab-induced pneumonitis. Conclusion Our results indicated that pre-existing ILD and male sex are risk factors for nivolumab-induced pneumonitis in solid tumors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Developments in targeted molecular therapies have considerably improved patient survival in cancer. Panitumumab is a monoclonal antibody against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). It is used to treat metastatic colorectal carcinoma. Although panitumumab is well tolerated in most patients, pulmonary toxicity, especially interstitial lung disease (ILD), is a life-threatening condition. The presentation of panitumumab-induced ILD with spontaneous pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema is rarely reported. CASE REPORT We describe a 61-year-old male with metastatic colorectal carcinoma treated with FOLFIRI (folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil, irinotecan) and panitumumab. He presented to our hospital with a complaint of severe dyspnea. On the evaluation of dyspnea, the patient was diagnosed with ILD. MANAGEMENT AND OUTCOME After exclusion of other common causes of pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema, panitumumab was attributed as a cause of ILD. Oxygen therapy via high flow nasal cannula and intravenous methylprednisolone regimen was started. After two weeks, the patient became asymptomatic with the radiologic amelioration. DISCUSSION Panitumumab-induced ILD is associated with a poor prognosis and might occur randomly in one year after the drug administration. The possibility of the disease should be considered on every admission. Early recognition, discontinuation of causative medication, and immediate glucocorticoid therapy are essential to reduce mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Daptomycin is a widely used antibiotic. Rhabdomyolysis related to daptomycin is one of the adverse effects of treatment, justifying the need for regular monitoring of muscle enzymes throughout treatment. Daptomycin may also lead to eosinophilic pneumonia. However, risk factors for this adverse reaction have not been identified and do not permit targeting of at-risk populations who could benefit from appropriate monitoring. PATIENTS AND METHODS Literature was reviewed for cases of daptomycin-induced eosinophilic pneumonia (DIEP), which that were compared to cases of patients without this adverse effect. RESULTS Fifty patients with DIEP and 54 controls were identified. Age, sex, and treatment dose are not associated with the occurrence of DIEP. A high dose of daptomycin is not associated with an early onset of DIEP. About one third of patients with eosinophilic lung disease have diabetes or renal impairment. CONCLUSIONS Further studies may help to identify additional factors.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) is a group of adverse drug reactions that is rare but fatally toxic. Pulmonary toxicity causes inflammation and subsequent interstitial fibrosis. As novel drugs with a variety of purposes are introduced into the medical field, the number of culprit medications that are suspected to cause lung complications is accordingly increasing. In this review, DILD will be discussed from several aspects such as causality by numerous drugs, check points for a timely diagnosis, alongside some contemporary treatment options. The exact mechanism of DILD has not been elucidated, and a useful clinical, radiological, or pathological confirmation process is still lacking. Common drugs which casue DILD include bleomycin, amiodarone, epidermal growth factor receptor-targeted agents, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Diagnosis is based on a suspicious drug administration history, somewhat inconsistent clinical symptoms and signs, radiological hints, and histopathological assistance, together with the exclusion of other lung-injuring etiologies. Cessation of the suspected drug, meticulous corticosteroid usage, and ancillary supportive management are the mainstay therapeutic strategy for DILD. Most cases of DILD respond to these countermeasures and reductions, but in some cases the fibrotic process worsens, leading to irreversible sequelae on the affected lung.

Abstract
Severe delayed drug hypersensitivity reactions comprise different clinical entities and can involve different immune-mediated mechanisms. Common examples are severe cutaneous adverse reactions and druginduced internal organ injuries. The incidence of such reactions is overall low but seems to be on the rise reaching numbers as high as 9 per million individuals-years in the case of SJS/TEN and DRESS. Such conditions carry an important associated morbidity, and mortality can attain 40% in SJS/TEN patients, making these hypersensitivity reactions important targets when implementing preventive measures. Several risk factors have been identified for reaction severity; some are transverse, such as older age and underlying chronic diseases. The recent advances in pharmacogenetics allowed the identification of specific populations with higher risk and permitted strategic avoidance of certain drugs being HLA-B*57:01 screening in patients initiating abacavir the best successful example. In this work, we reviewed the epidemiology of SCARs and liver/kidney/lung drug-induced immune-mediated reactions. We focus on particular aspects such as prevalence and incidence, drugs involved, mortality and risk factors.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (D-ILD) can be caused by various drugs, including antibiotics, amiodarone, antitumor, rheumatological and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. D-ILD includes hypersensitivity reactions, organizing and non-specific interstitial pneumonia, eosinophilic lung diseases, diffuse alveolar damage and alveolar hypoventilation. To exclude other causes of pulmonary diseases, an assessment of the medical history, physical data and examination results, which may include chest X-ray/multispiral computed tomography (MSCT), lung function tests, and bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage, are necessary. Diagnosis of D-ILD is difficult due to the heterogeneity of clinical, radiological and histological data. The X-ray pathological phenotype of D-ILD is different; a specific MSCT pattern has not been identified. Treatment includes drug withdrawal and, in some cases, glucocorticoid therapy, although there are no prospective studies on their effect on the outcome of the disease. This article provides various drugs that cause ILD, approaches to their diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Advances in the management of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors have given rise to diverse modalities to treat cancer other than cytotoxic chemotherapy, including targeted therapies, immunotherapies, and cellular therapies. Currently, there are over 175 FDA-approved antineoplastic agents in the United States, many with a diverse and profound toxicity profile. Complications of antineoplastic therapy may result in the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission to provide acute symptom management. Accordingly, ICU providers caring for cancer patients should have a working knowledge of the toxicities and complications associated with antineoplastic therapy.

Abstract
Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) is a serious side effect of chemotherapy in cancer patients with an extremely high mortality rate. In this study, to identify genetic variants with greater risk of DIILD, we carried out whole genome sequencing (WGS) of germline DNA samples from 26 patients who developed DIILD, and conducted a case-control association study between these 26 cases and general Japanese population controls registered in the integrative Japanese Genome Variation Database (iJGVD) as a screening study. The associations of 42 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) showing P < 0.0001 were further validated using an independent cohort of 18 DIILD cases as a replication study. A further combined analysis of the screening and replication studies showed a possible association of two SNVs, rs35198919 in intron 1 of the chromosome 22 open reading frame 34 (C22orf34) and rs12625311 in intron 1 of the teashirt zinc finger homeobox 2 (TSHZ2), with DIILD (Pcombined = 1.87 × 10−5 and 5.16 × 10−5, respectively). Furthermore, in a subgroup analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD), we observed seven candidate SNVs that were possibly associated with ILD (P < 0.00001). This is the first study to identify genetic markers for the risk of DIILD using WGS. Collectively, our novel findings indicate that these SNVs may be applicable for predicting the risk of DIILD in patients receiving chemotherapy.

Abstract
Despite progress in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in the last 15 years, it is still a condition with a relatively low 5-year survival rate. Panitumumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody directed against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), is able to prolong survival in patients with mCRC. Panitumumab is used in different lines of therapy in combination with chemotherapy, and as monotherapy for the treatment of wild-type (WT) RAS mCRC. It is administered as an intravenous infusion of 6 mg/kg every 2 weeks and has a t½ of approximately 7.5 days. Elimination takes place via two different mechanisms, and immunogenicity rates are low. Only RAS mutations have been confirmed as a negative predictor of efficacy with anti-EGFR antibodies. Panitumumab is generally well tolerated and has a manageable toxicity profile, despite a very high prevalence of dermatologic side effects. This article presents an overview of the clinical pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of panitumumab, including a description of the studies that led to its approval in the different lines of therapy of mCRC.

DILD datasets for adalimumab, bevacizumab, cetuximab, denosumab, golimumab, infliximab, nivolumab, panitumumab, pembrolizumab, tocilizumab, and trastuzumab were used to calculate the median time-to-onset of DILD, as well as the Weibull distribution parameters. The median time-to-onset of DILD for pembrolizumab and infliximab was within 1 month. The median time-to-onset of DILD for cetuximab, nivolumab, panitumumab, bevacizumab, golimumab, trastuzumab, and tocilizumab ranged from 1 to 2 months. The median time-to-onset of DILD for denosumab and adalimumab was more than 2 months. Infliximab, trastuzumab and tocilizumab, and denosumab were estimated to fit the early failure type profile of the Weibull distribution parameters. Cetuximab, nivolumab, panitumumab, bevacizumab, golimumab, and adalimumab were estimated to fit the random failure type profile. Pembrolizumab was estimated to fit the wear out failure type profile. Cluster analysis was performed to classify the time-to-onset patterns of DILD. Hierarchical cluster analysis showed 3 clusters. The findings of this study established both the most likely time period and onset-pattern of DILD that can occur in patients after the administration of monoclonal antibody agents.

Abstract
Panitumumab is a recombinant human IgG2 monoclonal antibody which is used for the treatment of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with disease progression on or following FOLFIRI (fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin and irinotecan) containing chemotherapy regimen. We report a case of an 83-year-old Hispanic man, non-smoker, with KRAS/NRAS wild-type mCRC of the liver who was treated with 9 cycles of FOLFOX4 (fluorouracil, leucovorin and oxaliplatin) and cetuximab. Follow-up abdominal imaging showed progression of CRC, requiring initiation of panitumumab in addition to FOLFIRI. After 2 cycles of this combination chemotherapy, he presented with acute hypoxaemic respiratory failure. Pulmonary imaging showed new onset of interstitial lung disease (ILD). He was treated with systemic corticosteroids with marked improvement of ILD. We aim to highlight the risk of severe life-threatening ILD associated with panitumumab. Early recognition of this serious adverse event helps avoid unnecessary administration of systemic antibiotics and prevent mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cetuximab is a common EGFR monoclonal antibody used with radiotherapy to treat head-and-neck cancer. Severe pulmonary toxicity, including interstitial lung disease (ILD), caused by cetuximab is rare. METHODS We describe a patient who developed ILD and acute respiratory failure after concurrent chemoradiation with cetuximab for oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and review the literature. RESULTS A patient developed acute respiratory failure 2 months after starting concurrent chemoradiation with cetuximab and was hospitalized in intensive care after a procedure for progressive respiratory distress. Cultures and serology were negative for infection and radiologic findings were consistent with drug associated pneumonitits. Steroids were administered until the patient was stabilized. The patient fully recovered 1 month after the onset of respiratory distress, although he died of recurrent disease 10 months after completing treatment. CONCLUSION Although severe pulmonary toxicity caused by EGFR inhibitors has been well described in the literature, ILD caused by cetuximab, an EGFR monoclonal antibody, is rare and not well-documented. Given its life-threatening effects, awareness of this potential side effect and early diagnosis is critical.

Abstract
Background: Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) occurs as a result of numerous agents, but the risk often only becomes apparent after the marketing authorisation of such agents. Methods: In this PRISMA-compliant systematic review, we aimed to evaluate and synthesise the current literature on DIILD. Results: Following a quality assessment, 156 full-text papers describing more than 6000 DIILD cases were included in the review. However, the majority of the papers were of low or very low quality in relation to the review question (78%). Thus, it was not possible to perform a meta-analysis, and descriptive review was undertaken instead. DIILD incidence rates varied between 4.1 and 12.4 cases/million/year. DIILD accounted for 3–5% of prevalent ILD cases. Cancer drugs, followed by rheumatology drugs, amiodarone and antibiotics, were the most common causes of DIILD. The radiopathological phenotype of DIILD varied between and within agents, and no typical radiological pattern specific to DIILD was identified. Mortality rates of over 50% were reported in some studies. Severity at presentation was the most reliable predictor of mortality. Glucocorticoids (GCs) were commonly used to treat DIILD, but no prospective studies examined their effect on outcome. Conclusions: Overall high-quality evidence in DIILD is lacking, and the current review will inform larger prospective studies to investigate the diagnosis and management of DIILD.

Abstract
Background Chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis impairs the quality of life. The difference in severity of oral mucositis between different anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibodies combined with cytotoxic drugs in colorectal cancer is unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the differences in oral mucositis between panitumumab (Pmab) and cetuximab (Cmab) combined with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study. A total of 75 colorectal cancer outpatients treated with an anti-EGFR antibody combined with FOLFOX, FOLFIRI, or 5-FU/leucovorin as the first- to third-line treatment were included. The primary endpoint was the incidence of grade 2–3 oral mucositis. The secondary endpoint was the time to onset of oral mucositis. We also compared the incidence of toxicities of interest, skin toxicity, hypomagnesaemia and neutropenia, and time to treatment failure (TTF) between the two groups. Results Thirty-two patients treated with Pmab and 43 patients treated with Cmab were evaluated. Patient characteristics were similar between the two groups. The incidence of grade 2–3 oral mucositis was significantly higher with Pmab than with Cmab (31.3% vs 9.3%, P < 0.05). Moreover, the incidence of grade 3 oral mucositis was significantly higher in patients treated with Pmab (18.8% vs 0%, P < 0.01). The mean (SD) cycles to onset of the worst oral mucositis was 3.0 (2.9) in the Pmab group and 2.3 (1.7) in the Cmab group (P = 0.29). Oral mucositis was characterized by glossitis and cheilitis. The incidences of other toxicities were the following (Pmab vs Cmab): grade 2–3 skin toxicity: 68.8% vs 74.4% (P = 0.61), grade 2–3 hypomagnesaemia: 9.3% vs 7.0% (P = 1.00), grade 3–4 neutropenia: 28.1% vs 37.2% (P = 0.46). The median TTF was not significantly different, i.e., 223 days vs 200 days (P = 0.39) for Pmab vs Cmab. Conclusions Pmab-based chemotherapy resulted in significantly higher grades of oral mucositis compared with Cmab-based chemotherapy. The oral condition should be monitored carefully and early supportive care should be provided for patients treated with Pmab-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are two mainstream strategies applied in the treatment of cancer that is not operable. Patients with hematological or solid tumor malignancies substantially benefit from chemotherapeutic drugs and/or ionizing radiation delivered to the site of malignancy. However, considerable adverse effects, including lung inflammation and fibrosis, are associated with the use of these treatment modalities. Areas covered: As we move toward the era of precision health, we are compelled to understand the molecular basis of chemoradiation-induced pathological lung remodeling and to develop effective treatment strategies that mitigate the development of chronic lung disease (i.e. fibrosis) in cancer patients. The review discusses chemotherapeutic agents that are reported to induce or associate with acute and/or chronic lung injury. Expert commentary: There is a need to molecularly understand how chemotherapeutic drugs induce or associate with respiratory toxicities and whether such characteristics are inherently related to their antitumor effect or are collateral. Once such mechanisms have been identified and/or fully characterized, they may be able to guide disease-management decisions including effective intervention strategies for the adverse effects. In the meantime, radiation oncologists should be judicious on the dose of radiation delivered to the lungs, the volume of lung irradiated, and concurrent use of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Abstract
Fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of the rare side effects of Panitumumab. Both fatal and non-fatal ILD have been reported mainly in the Japanese population. We report a case of a nonsmoking Caucasian man with the diagnosis of metastatic rectal cancer (K-RAS wild-type) who developed fatal ILD after receiving a Panitumumab-containing chemotherapy regimen. He initially presented with a locally advanced rectal cancer (T3N2M0) for which he received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Before the rectal surgery, he was found to have liver metastases which were considered potentially resectable. The decision was to delay the rectal surgery and to start systemic treatment. He was started on Modified De Gramont regimen (folinic acid and fluorouracil) plus Oxaliplatin with Panitumumab. Six months later, he underwent rectal surgery which showed a complete response. He continued on systemic treatment while awaiting liver metastasectomy. After three courses of Modified De Gramont plus Oxaliplatin with Panitumumab, he was admitted with few days’ history of increasing shortness of breath. High-resolution computed tomography of the lungs showed the features of interstitial pneumonitis. Despite receiving appropriate treatment, he continued to deteriorate and died due to respiratory failure.

Abstract
Many survivors of the 2003 outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) developed residual pulmonary fibrosis with increased severity seen in older patients. Autopsies of patients that died from SARS also showed fibrosis to varying extents. Pulmonary fibrosis can be occasionally seen as a consequence to several respiratory viral infections but is much more common after a SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infection. Given the threat of future outbreaks of severe coronavirus disease, including Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), it is important to understand the mechanisms responsible for pulmonary fibrosis, so as to support the development of therapeutic countermeasures and mitigate sequelae of infection. In this article, we summarize pulmonary fibrotic changes observed after a SARS-CoV infection, discuss the extent to which other respiratory viruses induce fibrosis, describe available animal models to study the development of SARS-CoV induced fibrosis and review evidence that pulmonary fibrosis is caused by a hyperactive host response to lung injury mediated by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling. We summarize work from our group and others indicating that inhibiting EGFR signaling may prevent an excessive fibrotic response to SARS-CoV and other respiratory viral infections and propose directions for future research. Patients who survived SARS coronavirus infection often developed pulmonary fibrosis. Mouse models of SARS-CoV infection recapitulate fibrotic lesions seen in humans. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) may modulate the wound healing response to SARS-CoV. The EGFR pathway is a prime target for therapeutic interventions to reduce fibrosis after respiratory virus infection.

[PMID: 27809894 PMCID: PMC5094012 DOI: 10.1186/s13256-016-1097-y] [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: 04/11/2016] [Accepted: 10/11/2016] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background TAS-102, a new treatment option for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer that is refractory or intolerant to standard therapies, has been improving survival with acceptable tolerability and adverse events. Adverse hematological events associated with TAS-102 treatment were extensively profiled in the RECOURSE trial, but pulmonary toxicities associated with TAS-102 therapy are distinctly uncommon. In a recent early post-marketing phase vigilance on TAS-102 in Japan, seven cases of pulmonary disease were reported, but patient follow-up in this study was incomplete. Here, we present the first case of interstitial lung disease occurring in association with TAS-102 treatment. Case presentation A 57-year-old Japanese man who had previously received two standard treatments was admitted in 2014, at which time we administered TAS-102 (110 mg/day) as a third-line chemotherapy. He was safely treated with TAS-102 for the first planned cycle; however, approximately 4 days after receiving the second cycle of TAS-102, he complained of high fever and subsequent dyspnea with severe hypoxemia and went to the emergency room. A chest X-ray revealed diffuse coarse reticular shadows with ground-glass opacity on both lungs. Furthermore, a chest computed tomography scan showed thickening of the bronchovascular bundles with extensive ground-glass opacification and pleural effusions in both lung fields. In addition, a peripheral blood lymphocyte stimulation test with TAS-102 showed higher values compared with control samples. Consequently, we suspected drug-induced interstitial pneumonia, and discontinued treatment. Our patient was given an initial administration of high-dose methylprednisolone (1000 mg/day) for 3 days and oxygen. Our patient was discharged with oral prednisolone (20 mg/day) and improved symptomatically and radiologically. Conclusions These findings suggest that interstitial pneumonia is a rare complication of TAS-102 chemotherapy, but the possibility of interstitial pneumonia should always be considered when a patient presents with a respiratory disorder while undergoing TAS-102 systemic chemotherapy. Prompt discontinuation of TAS-102 and treatment with high-dosage corticosteroids is needed to avoid exacerbating respiratory symptoms.
