Abstract
BACKGROUND Local therapy for the primary tumor is postulated to remove resistant cancer cells as well as immunosuppressive cells from the tumor microenvironment, potentially improving response to systemic therapy (ST). We sought to determine whether resection of the primary tumor was associated with overall survival (OS) in a multicentric cohort of patients with single-site synchronous oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. STUDY DESIGN Using the National Cancer Database (2018 to 2020), we evaluated patients with clinical stage IVA disease who received ST and stratified the cohort based on receipt of surgery for the primary tumor (S). We used multivariable and propensity score-matched analysis to study factors associated with S (logistic regression) and OS (Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier), respectively. RESULTS Among 12,215 patients identified, 2.9% (N = 349) underwent S and 97.1% (N = 11,886) ST (chemotherapy or immunotherapy) without surgery. Patients who underwent S were younger, more often White, had higher income levels, were more likely to have private insurance, and were more often treated at an academic facility. Among those who received S, 22.9% (N = 80) also underwent resection of the distant metastatic site. On multivariable analysis, metastasis to bone, N+ disease, and higher T-stages were independently associated with less S. On Cox regression, S and resection of the metastatic site were associated with improved survival (hazard ratio 0.67, 95% CI 0.56 to 0.80 and hazard ratio 0.80, 95% CI 0.72 to 0.88, respectively). After propensity matching, OS was improved in patients undergoing S (median 36.8 vs 20.8 months, log-rank p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Advances in ST for non-small cell lung cancer may change the paradigm of eligibility for surgery. This study demonstrates that surgical resection of the primary tumor is associated with improved OS in selected patients with single-site oligometastatic disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Recent randomized trials have demonstrated a survival advantage with the use of local consolidative therapy in oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer; however, the indications for and outcomes after pulmonary resection as a component of local consolidative therapy remain ill defined. We sought to characterize the perioperative and long-term survival outcomes among patients with resected oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer. METHODS Patients presenting to a single center (2000-2017) with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (≤3 synchronous metastases, intrathoracic nodal disease counted as a single site) who underwent resection of the primary tumor were retrospectively identified. Charts were reviewed, and demographic, clinical, pathologic, oncologic, and survival outcomes were recorded. Survival outcomes were analyzed from the date of surgery. RESULTS A total of 52 patients met inclusion criteria, among whom most (38, 73.1%) were ever smokers, had nonsquamous tumors (48, 92.3%), had no intrathoracic nodal disease (33, 63.5%), and had 1 to 2 sites of metastases (49, 94.2%). The majority (41, 78.9%) received systemic therapy, predominantly in the neoadjuvant setting (24/41, 58.5%). After resection, there were no 30- or 90-day deaths. After a median follow-up of 94.6 months (95% CI, 69.0-139.1), 37 patients (71.2%) progressed and 38 patients (73.1%) died. Median postoperative progression-free survival and overall survival were 9.4 (5.5-11.6) months and 51.7 (22.3-65.3) months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary resection as a means of maximum locoregional control in oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer is feasible and safe, and may be associated with durable long-term survival benefits. The frequency of systemic postoperative progression highlights an urgent need to characterize perioperative and oncologic outcomes after pulmonary resection in the current era of novel systemic therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to establish a prognostic model for clinical T1N0M1 (cT1N0M1) lung adenocarcinoma patients to evaluate the prognosis of patients in terms of overall survival (OS) rate and cancer-specific survival (CSS) rate. METHODS Data of patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma from 2010 to 2016 were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify relevant prognostic factors and used to develop nomograms. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve are used to evaluate the predictive ability of the nomograms. RESULTS A total of 45610 patients were finally included in this study. The OS and CSS nomograms were constructed by same clinical indicators such as age (<60 years or ≥60 years), sex (female or male), race (white, black, or others), surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, and the number of metastatic sites, based on the results of statistical Cox analysis. From the perspective of OS and CSS, surgery contributed the most to the prognosis. The ROC curve analysis showed that the survival nomograms could accurately predict OS and CSS. According to the points obtained from the nomograms, survival was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method, then cT1N0M1 patients were divided into three groups: low-risk group, intermediate-risk group, and high-risk group, and the OS ( P < 0.001) and CSS ( P < 0.001) were significantly different among the three groups. CONCLUSION The nomograms and risk stratification model provide a convenient and reliable tool for individualized evaluation and clinical decision-making of patients with cT1N0M1 lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Extended lung resections for T3-T4 non-small-cell lung cancer remain challenging. Multimodal management is mandatory in multidisciplinary tumor boards, and here the determination of resectability is key. Long-term oncologic efficacy depends mostly on complete resection (R0) and the extent of N2 disease. The development of novel innovative treatments (targeted therapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors) sets interesting perspectives to reinforce current therapeutic options in the induction and adjuvant setting.

Abstract
Salvage surgery refers to operative resection of persistent or recurrent disease in patients initially treated with intention-to-cure nonoperative management. In non-small-cell lung cancer, salvage surgery may be effective in treating selected patients with locally progressive tumors, recurrent local or locoregional disease, or local complications after nonoperative therapy. Importantly, those patients who may be candidates for salvage surgery are evolving, in terms of disease stage as well as the types of attempted definitive therapy received.

Abstract
Standard treatments for patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) include palliative chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but with limited survival rates. With the development of improved immunotherapy and targeted therapy, NSCLC prognoses have significantly improved. In recent years, the concept of oligometastatic disease has been developed, with randomized trial data showing survival benefits from local ablation therapy (LAT) in patients with oligometastatic NSCLC (OM-NSCLC). LAT includes surgery, stereotactic ablation body radiation therapy, or thermal ablation, and is becoming an important treatment component for OM-NSCLC. However, controversy remains on specific management strategies for the condition. In this review, we gathered current randomized trial data to analyze prognostic factors affecting patient survival, and explored ideal treatment conditions for patients with OM-NSCLC with respect to long-term survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of lung surgery in initially unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment remains unclear. We aimed to assess the survival benefits of patients who underwent surgery for regressed or regrown tumors after receiving TKI treatment. METHODS The details of patients diagnosed with unresectable NSCLC treated with TKI followed by lung resection from 2010 to 2020 were retrieved from our database. The primary endpoint was 3-year overall survival (OS), whereas the secondary endpoints were a 2-year progression-free survival (PFS), feasibility, and the safety of pulmonary resection. The statistical tests used were Fisher's exact test, Kruskal Wallis test, Kaplan-Meier method, Cox proportional hazards model, and Firth correction. RESULTS Nineteen out of thirty-two patients were selected for the study. The patients underwent lung surgery after confirmed tumor regression (17 [89.5%]) and regrowth (two [10.5%]). All surgeries were performed via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: 14 (73.7%) lobectomies and five (26.3%) sublobar resections after a median duration of 5 months of TKI. Two (10.5%) postoperative complications and no 30-day postoperative mortality were observed. The median postoperative follow-up was 22 months. The 2-year PFS and 3-year OS rates were 43.9% and 61.5%, respectively. Patients who underwent surgery for regressed disease showed a significantly better OS than for regrowth disease (HR=0.086, 95% CI 0.008-0.957, p=0.046). TKI-adjuvant demonstrated a better PFS than non-TKI adjuvant (HR=0.146, 95% CI 0.027-0.782, p=0.025). CONCLUSION Lung surgery after TKI treatment is feasible and safe and prolongs survival via local control and directed consequential therapy. Lung surgery should be adopted in multimodality therapy for initially unresectable NSCLC.

Intraoperative challenges after induction therapy for non-small cell lung cancer: Effect of nodal disease on technical complexity. JTCVS OPEN 2022; 12:372-384. [PMID: 36590745 PMCID: PMC9801337 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjon.2022.09.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Revised: 09/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Objectives Neoadjuvant therapy has been theorized to increase complexity of non-small cell lung cancer resections; however, specific factors that contribute to intraoperative challenges after induction therapy have not been well described. We aimed to characterize the effect of nodal involvement and nodal treatment response on surgical complexity after neoadjuvant therapy. Methods We identified patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy followed by anatomic lung resection for cN + non-small cell lung cancer between 2010 and 2020. Patients were categorized according to clinical N1 versus N2 disease. To evaluate the effect of nodal response to therapy, thoracic radiologists measured clinically suspected and pathologically involved lymph nodes before and after induction therapy. Operative reports were reviewed to identify technical challenges specifically related to nodal disease. Categorical outcomes were compared using Fisher exact test. Results One hundred twenty-four patients met inclusion criteria, among whom 107 (86.3%) were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, whereas chemoradiation (n = 8) and targeted therapy (n = 9) were less common. In cases with N1 disease, 8/38 (21.0%) required proximal pulmonary arterial control, whereas this was necessary in only 2/88 (2.3%) of N2 cases (P = .001). Likewise, sleeve resection and arterioplasty were needed more frequently during resection of N1 disease (7/38, 18.4%) versus N2 disease (0/88, P < .001). Increased nodal response to therapy was associated with greater likelihood of requiring change in vascular approach (P = .011). Conclusions After induction therapy, N1 disease was associated with greater need for complex surgical maneuvers than N2 disease. Likewise, substantial treatment response was associated with increased intraoperative technical challenges. Recognizing such factors enables surgical teams to engage in appropriate operative planning to ensure patient safety.

Abstract
Since the first definition by Hellman and Weichselbaum in 1995, the concept of OligoMetastatic Disease (OMD) is a growing oncology field. It was hypothesized that OMD is a clinical temporal window between localized primary tumor and widespread metastases deserving of potentially curative treatment. In real-world clinical practice, OMD is a “spectrum of disease” that includes a highly heterogeneous population of patients with different prognosis. Metastasis directed therapy with local ablative treatment have proved to be a valid alternative to surgical approach. Stereotactic body radiation therapy demonstrated high local control rate and increased survival outcomes in this setting with a low rate of toxicity. However, there is a lack of consensus regarding many clinical, therapeutic, and prognostic aspects of this disease entity. In this review, we try to summarize the major critical features that could drive radiation oncologists toward a better selection of patients, treatments, and study endpoints. With the help of a set of practical questions, we aim to integrate the literature discussion.

The Role of Surgery for Oligometastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14102524.

Abstract
Oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is metastatic disease that refers to a limited number of metastatic sites. It is analogous to an intermediate stage of NSCLC, between localized and widely metastatic disease, even though no staging criteria establishes this distinction. Oligometastatic NSCLC describes a patient subgroup with limited metastasis to one or a few organs. These patients seem to have a more indolent cancer than those with diffuse metastasis. For these select patients with oligometastatic disease, the use of palliative systemic therapy over local aggressive treatment may be a missed opportunity to improve survival. The clear definition of this subgroup and identification of the best treatment remains the current challenge in the management of the disease. Surgery was the early cornerstone in the treatment of limited disease; however, as modalities such as chemotherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, and immunotherapy have matured, the role of excision is less clearly defined. There are sparse randomized controlled trials comparing the efficacy of different treatment modalities in patients with oligometastatic NSCLC. However, there is a growing body of retrospective research detailing the prognostic factors that characterize the role of surgery in the management of these patients. This article clarifies the context and definition of the term oligometastatic, as it applies to NSCLC, and reviews the current results in the use of surgery for its management.

Abstract
Simple Summary The management strategy for the treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been transformed by our improved understanding of the cancer biology and concomitant development of novel systemic therapies. Complete surgical resection of NSCLC continues to offer the best chance for cure or local and regional disease control, and with improvements in minimally invasive techniques and enhanced recovery, the morbidity associated with surgical resection has been reduced. Patient-centered multi-disciplinary discussions that consider surgical therapy are associated with improved outcomes. Provided with promising novel therapeutic modalities including immune checkpoint inhibitors with or without chemotherapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, and targeted systemic therapies, indications for surgery continue to evolve and have expanded to include selected patients with advanced and metastatic disease. Abstract With recent strides made within the field of thoracic oncology, the management of NSCLC is evolving rapidly. Careful patient selection and timing of multi-modality therapy to permit the optimization of therapeutic benefit must be pursued. While chemotherapy and radiotherapy continue to have a role in the management of lung cancer, surgical therapy remains an essential component of lung cancer treatment in early, locally and regionally advanced, as well as in selected, cases of metastatic disease. Recent and most impactful advances in the treatment of lung cancer relate to the advent of immunotherapy and targeted therapy, molecular profiling, and predictive biomarker discovery. Many of these systemic therapies are a part of the standard of care in metastatic NSCLC, and their indications are expanding towards surgically operable lung cancer to improve survival outcomes. Numerous completed and ongoing clinical trials in the surgically operable NSCLC speak to the interest and importance of the multi-modality therapy even in earlier stages of NSCLC. In this review, we focus on the current standard of care indications for surgical therapy in stage I-IV NSCLC as well as on the anticipated future direction of multi-disciplinary lung cancer therapy.

Abstract
Local ablative therapies, including surgery or stereotactic radiotherapy (SABR), are becoming an integral component in the treatment of oligometastatic disease in non-small-cell lung cancer. In this review, we summarize recent randomized evidence supporting progression-free survival and overall survival benefits of local ablation in these patients, as well as upcoming phase III data which should help us better understand the ideal treatment conditions and provide more insight into the oligometastatic state. Since practical management of oligometastatic disease in non-small-cell lung cancer can be challenging, we discuss a modern framework to identify patient, tumor, and treatment characteristics that can best guide management.

Abstract
Objective Long-term survival of patients who undergo surgical resection of isolated adrenal metastasis instead of nonsurgical treatment has shown higher values than those described for stage IVA. The primary endpoint was to evaluate overall survival (OS) of patients with single adrenal metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who underwent surgical treatment. The secondary endpoint was to evaluate and compare the OS and disease-free survival (DFS) according to: pathological lung tumour size, histology, lymph node involvement, type of metastasis at the time of diagnosis and laterality of the metastasis according to the primary lung tumour. Methods From August 2007 to March 2020, 13 patients with isolated adrenal gland metastasis were identified. We performed a descriptive observational study including patients with diagnosed single adrenal gland metastasis of resectable primary lung cancer and no history of other malignant disease. Clinical data obtained included patient demographics, metastases characteristics, laterality of the metastasis, time between surgeries, length of follow-up, survival status, pathological lung tumour size, histology and lymph node involvement. The variables analysed were OS and DFS. Results Median global OS was 31.9 months (interquartile range (IQR), 19.1-51.4). The 2- and 5-year OS estimated was 54% (95% CI: 29.5%-77.4%) and 36% (95% CI: 13.4%-68.1%), respectively. In patients with NSCLC without mediastinal lymph node involvement, we obtain a median OS of 40 months (IQR, 27.4-51.4) and a 2- and 5-year OS estimated of 75% (95% CI: 43.2%-92.2%) and 50% (95% CI: 18.7%-81.2%), respectively. Recurrence was detected in five patients with a median DFS of 11.9 months (IQR, 6-34.2). Conclusion The resection of the adrenal metastasis should be considered if the primary lung cancer is resectable. Presence of mediastinal lymph node involvement should be ruled out through invasive staging of the mediastinum before performing adrenal and lung surgery. Proper selection of patients who would benefit from surgery is essential to obtain better survival results.

Abstract
An oligometastatic cancer state was first postulated in the 1990s by Hellman and Weichselbaum and described limited metastatic spread to a single or few sites of disease. It was hypothesized that this metastatic entity falls along a continuum of the natural history of cancer progression from a localized primary tumor to widespread metastases. Support for oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has since been provided by multiple retrospective studies and then prospective randomized trials demonstrating better survival in this patient population after aggressive consolidative treatment. However, the lack of a universal definition of oligometastatic NSCLC has hindered a comparison between different studies and prevented well-defined recommendations for local consolidative treatment in this patient population. Attempts have been made to establish a common definition for use in clinical management and for the identification of inclusion criteria for future trials. In this review, we seek to summarize the current definitions of oligometastatic NSCLC based on recent expert consensus statements, previous randomized trials, and current treatment guidelines and to highlight the continued variability in current practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for a high proportion of lung cancer cases. Targeted therapy improve the survival in these patients, but acquired drug resistance will inevitably occur. If tumor downstaging is achieved after targeted therapy, could surgical resection before drug resistance improve clinical benefits for patients with advanced NSCLC? Here, we conducted a clinical trial showing that for patients with advanced driver gene mutant NSCLC who did not progress after targeted therapy, salvage surgery (SS) could improve progression-free survival (PFS). Herein, we retrospectively reviewed our former clinical trial and thoracic cancer database in our medical institutions. METHODS We identified patients with advanced driver gene mutant NSCLC treated with targeted therapy plus SS or targeted therapy alone in our former clinical trial and our thoracic cancer database from July 2016 to July 2019. PFS was compared between the targeted therapy plus SS group and the targeted therapy only group using the log-rank test. RESULTS We identified 73 patients with driver gene mutant NSCLC who were treated with targeted therapy and 18 treated with targeted therapy plus SS.Among the 18 patients treated with targeted therapy plus SS, there were no obvious perioperative complications and deaths. Targeted therapy followed by SS resulted in a significantly longer PFS compared with targeted therapy alone (23.4 months VS 12.9 months, p = 0.0004). CONCLUSIONS Salvage surgery after tumor downstaging is a promising therapeutic strategy for some patients with advanced (stage IIIB-IV) NSCLC and may offer a new therapeutic option for multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment of lung cancer.

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

Robotic Surgery and Anatomic Segmentectomy: An Analysis of Trends, Patient Selection, and Outcomes. Ann Thorac Surg 2021; 113:975-983.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unclear whetherrobotic segmentectomies are advantageous. We describe our experience with the robot, comparing patient populations and outcomes with videoscopic thoracic surgery (VATS) and open resection. METHODS Patients who received anatomic segmentectomy from 2004-2019 were reviewed. Resection methods were categorized as robotic, VATS, or open. Segmentectomies were categorized as simple or complex. Baseline characteristics and perioperative outcomes were analyzed from 2015-2019 due to implementation of ERAS protocol. RESULTS Since 2004, there has been an increase in segmentectomies, including robotic and complex segmentectomies. There were 222 segmentectomies from 2015-2019, of which 77(35%) were robotic, 40(18%) VATS, and 105(47%) open. Complex segmentectomies were higher in the robotic group compared to VATS and open (45% vs. 15% vs. 22%; p<0.001), operative time for robotic resections were also longer compared to VATS and open (205 vs. 147 vs. 147 minutes; p<0.001), but had lower blood loss (50 vs. 75 vs. 100 ml; p<0.001), shorter chest tube days (2 vs. 2 vs. 3 days; p=0.004) and length of stay (3 vs. 3 vs. 4 days; p<0.001). Perioperative mortality was low in all groups. No robotic segmentectomy converted to open compared to 7.5% for VATS (p=0.038). Prolonged air leak was lower for robotic compared to open (4% vs. 13%; p=0.038). CONCLUSIONS Robotic segmentectomy has increased in our institution, with concurrent rise in atypical segmentectomies. Despite performing more complex procedures, there were no conversions, and low perioperative morbidity and mortality. Our results suggest that the robotic platform can facilitate performance of complex anatomic segmentectomies.
