Acute exacerbation predicting poor outcomes in idiopathic interstitial pneumonia and advanced lung cancer patients undergoing cytotoxic chemotherapy. Sci Rep 2024; 14:10162. [PMID: 38702426 PMCID: PMC11068886 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-60833-w] [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: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Effective treatment for advanced lung cancer and idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) remains an unmet medical need. The relationship between chemotherapy's effectiveness in advanced lung cancer and the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP is poorly investigated. There is limited evidence that patients who experience an acute exacerbation of IIPs during cytotoxic chemotherapy have poorer outcomes than those who do not. Among 1004 patients with advanced lung cancer and IIPs enrolled in our published multi-centre retrospective study from 110 Japanese institutions, 708 patients (male: female, 645:63; mean age, 70.4) received first-line chemotherapy. The occurrence of chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbations of IIPs and overall survival (OS) were analysed. The OS between groups of patients with and without the occurrence of acute exacerbation was compared at four landmark time points (30, 60, 90, and 120 days), starting from the first-line chemotherapy, using the landmark method. The incidence of acute exacerbation in patients who received first-line chemotherapy with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was more frequent in NSCLC patients than in SCLC (4.2% vs 12.6%; odds ratio [OR]: 3.316; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.25-8.8). Median survival time was 9.9 months (95% CI 9.2-10.7). Patients who experienced acute exacerbation had significant worse survival outcomes than those who did not at various time points (30 days, hazard ratio [HR]: 5.191, 95% CI 2.889-9.328; 60 days, HR: 2.351, 95% CI 1.104-5.009; 90 days, HR: 2.416, 95% CI 1.232-4.739; and 120 days, HR: 2.521, 95% CI 1.357-4.681). Acute exacerbation during first-line chemotherapy can predict poor survival.Trial Registration number: UMIN000018227.

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

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

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

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

Abstract
Interstitial pneumonia often acts as a barrier to lung cancer treatment. We report the case of a 79-year-old man who was diagnosed with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation positive lung adenocarcinoma (T2aN0M0, stage ⅠB, EGFR exon 19 deletion), and was positive for anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase antibodies with interstitial pneumonia. Metastasis in the right seventh rib was detected three months after surgical resection and radiation therapy was initiated. As recurrence was observed at both ends of the radiation field five months later, combination chemotherapy with erlotinib and ramucirumab was initiated. Approximately one year has passed since the start initiation of treatment, and acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia has not been observed during the follow-up period observation. The tumor has remained stable, indicating stable disease.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man was referred to our hospital with an abnormal chest shadow. Computed tomography (CT) revealed a mass in the left upper lobe and interstitial pneumonia (IP). The patient underwent CT-guided needle biopsy and was diagnosed as lung adenocarcinoma with cT2aN1M1a Stage IVA (PUL). The patient was administered 6 cycles of CBDCA + nab-paclitaxel as first-line, 3 cycles of atezolizumab as second-line, and 8 cycles of S-1 as third-line treatment but finally showed tumor progression. Because comprehensive genome profiling test revealed KRAS G12C mutation, sotorasib was initiated as fourth-line treatment and showed tumor regression without exacerbation of pre-existing IP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are an independent risk factor of lung cancer, and a chemotherapy-induced acute exacerbation is the most common lethal complication in Japanese patients. The safety and efficacy of carboplatin and weekly paclitaxel for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias has been previously reported in prospective studies. However, carboplatin + paclitaxel with bevacizumab is currently the standard therapy. We conducted a multicenter, phase II study to confirm the safety and efficacy of carboplatin + weekly paclitaxel + bevacizumab for the treatment of patients with lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced-stage or patients with post-operative recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias were enrolled. Patients received carboplatin (area under the curve: 5.0) and bevacizumab (15 mg/kg) on day 1 and paclitaxel (100 mg/m2) on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 4-week cycle. RESULTS Seventeen patients less than the predetermined number were enrolled and received a median of four treatment cycles (range: 1-6). One patient (5.9%; 95% confidence interval: 0.1-28.7%) had acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia related to the study treatment which improved after corticosteroid treatment. The overall response rate was 52.9%. The median progression-free survival, median survival time, and 1-year survival were 5.7 months, 12.9 months, and 52.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION The addition of bevacizumab to carboplatin and weekly paclitaxel might be safe and effective for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias.

Cancer Immunol Immunother 2023; 72:591-598. [PMID: 35994088 DOI: 10.1007/s00262-022-03281-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 10/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with preexisting interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) increases the risk of developing pneumonitis. However, the association between pneumonitis and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and related factors remains unclear. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using a nationwide inpatient database. We included patients (aged ≥ 20 years) newly diagnosed with ILD and NSCLC and who started chemotherapy (ICIs or conventional chemotherapy) between January 2016 and December 2019. The primary endpoint was the onset of pneumonitis. We estimated the cumulative incidence function of pneumonitis and compared it with patients taking ICIs and patients receiving conventional chemotherapy using Gray's test. We calculated the subdistribution hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the incidence of pneumonitis using Fine and Gray's model to adjust for sex, age, smoking status, histology of NSCLC, surgical history, and medical histories, considering death as the competing risk. RESULTS We identified 1177 patients (mean age 72 years, 13.8% female), of which 328 and 849 were in the ICI and conventional chemotherapy groups, respectively. There was no significant difference in the cumulative incidence function of pneumonitis between the two groups (p = 0.868). The adjusted subdistribution HR for the incidence of pneumonitis was 1.08 (95% CI: 0.74-1.57). Age (≥ 65 years) (HR: 1.86, 95% CI: 1.11-3.10) and smoking history (HR: 2.04, 95% CI: 1.02-4.11) were associated with developing pneumonitis. CONCLUSION The risk of developing pneumonitis with ICIs for NSCLC patients with preexisting ILD was similar to that with conventional chemotherapy.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE There remains a paucity of large databases for patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and lung cancer. We aimed to create a European registry. METHODS This was a multicentre, retrospective study across seven European countries between 1 January 2010 and 18 May 2021. RESULTS We identified 324 patients with lung cancer among 3178 patients with IPF (prevalence = 10.2%). By the end of the 10 year-period following IPF diagnosis, 26.6% of alive patients with IPF had been diagnosed with lung cancer. Patients with IPF and lung cancer experienced increased risk of all-cause mortality than IPF patients without lung cancer (HR: 1.51, [95% CI: 1.22-1.86], p < 0.0001). All-cause mortality was significantly lower for patients with IPF and lung cancer with a monocyte count of either <0.60 or 0.60-<0.95 K/μl than patients with monocyte count ≥0.95 K/μl (HR [<0.60 vs. ≥0.95 K/μl]: 0.35, [95% CI: 0.17-0.72], HR [0.60-<0.95 vs. ≥0.95 K/μl]: 0.42, [95% CI: 0.21-0.82], p = 0.003). Patients with IPF and lung cancer that received antifibrotics presented with decreased all cause-mortality compared to those who did not receive antifibrotics (HR: 0.61, [95% CI: 0.42-0.87], p = 0.006). In the adjusted model, a significantly lower proportion of surgically treated patients with IPF and otherwise technically operable lung cancer experienced all-cause mortality compared to non-surgically treated patients (HR: 0.30 [95% CI: 0.11-0.86], p = 0.02). CONCLUSION Lung cancer exerts a dramatic impact on patients with IPF. A consensus statement for the management of patients with IPF and lung cancer is sorely needed.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive disease of pulmonary scarring. New treatments slow disease progression and allow pulmonary fibrosis patients to live longer. Persistent pulmonary fibrosis increases a patient's risk of developing lung cancer. Lung cancer in patients with IPF differs from cancers that develop in the non-fibrotic lung. Peripherally located adenocarcinoma is the most frequent cell type in smokers who develop lung cancer, while squamous cell carcinoma is the most frequent in pulmonary fibrosis. Increased fibroblast foci in IPF are associated with more aggressive cancer behaviour and shorter doubling times. Treatment of lung cancer in fibrosis is challenging because of the risk of inducing an exacerbation of fibrosis. In order to improve patient outcomes, modifications of current lung cancer screening guidelines in patients with pulmonary fibrosis will be necessary to avoid delays in treatment. 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) computed tomography (CT) imaging can help identify cancer earlier and more reliably than CT alone. Increased use of wedge resections, proton therapy and immunotherapy may increase survival by decreasing the risk of exacerbation, but further research will be necessary.

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

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the previous French guidelines were published in 2017, substantial additional knowledge about idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has accumulated. METHODS Under the auspices of the French-speaking Learned Society of Pulmonology and at the initiative of the coordinating reference center, practical guidelines for treatment of rare pulmonary diseases have been established. They were elaborated by groups of writers, reviewers and coordinators with the help of the OrphaLung network, as well as pulmonologists with varying practice modalities, radiologists, pathologists, a general practitioner, a head nurse, and a patients' association. The method was developed according to rules entitled "Good clinical practice" in the overall framework of the "Guidelines for clinical practice" of the official French health authority (HAS), taking into account the results of an online vote using a Likert scale. RESULTS After analysis of the literature, 54 recommendations were formulated, improved, and validated by the working groups. The recommendations covered a wide-ranging aspects of the disease and its treatment: epidemiology, diagnostic modalities, quality criteria and interpretation of chest CT, indication and modalities of lung biopsy, etiologic workup, approach to familial disease entailing indications and modalities of genetic testing, evaluation of possible functional impairments and prognosis, indications for and use of antifibrotic therapy, lung transplantation, symptom management, comorbidities and complications, treatment of chronic respiratory failure, diagnosis and management of acute exacerbations of fibrosis. CONCLUSION These evidence-based guidelines are aimed at guiding the diagnosis and the management in clinical practice of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

French practical guidelines for the diagnosis and management of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis - 2021 update. Full-length version. Respir Med Res 2022; 83:100948. [PMID: 36630775 DOI: 10.1016/j.resmer.2022.100948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Since the latest 2017 French guidelines, knowledge about idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis has evolved considerably. METHODS Practical guidelines were drafted on the initiative of the Coordinating Reference Center for Rare Pulmonary Diseases, led by the French Language Pulmonology Society (SPLF), by a coordinating group, a writing group, and a review group, with the involvement of the entire OrphaLung network, pulmonologists practicing in various settings, radiologists, pathologists, a general practitioner, a health manager, and a patient association. The method followed the "Clinical Practice Guidelines" process of the French National Authority for Health (HAS), including an online vote using a Likert scale. RESULTS After a literature review, 54 guidelines were formulated, improved, and then validated by the working groups. These guidelines addressed multiple aspects of the disease: epidemiology, diagnostic procedures, quality criteria and interpretation of chest CT scans, lung biopsy indication and procedures, etiological workup, methods and indications for family screening and genetic testing, assessment of the functional impairment and prognosis, indication and use of antifibrotic agents, lung transplantation, management of symptoms, comorbidities and complications, treatment of chronic respiratory failure, diagnosis and management of acute exacerbations of fibrosis. CONCLUSION These evidence-based guidelines are intended to guide the diagnosis and practical management of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

Disease activity of lung cancer at the time of acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease during cytotoxic chemotherapy. Thorac Cancer 2022; 13:2443-2449. [PMID: 35840339 PMCID: PMC9436679 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14566] [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: 02/14/2022] [Revised: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The prognosis of lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor, and acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD can occur during chemotherapy as a fatal adverse event. Although AE‐ILD development is correlated with various factors, no reports are investigating the disease activity of lung cancer at the time of AE‐ILD development. Methods All consecutive lung cancer patients with ILD who developed chemotherapy‐related AE‐ILD within 28 days after the last administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy between 2011 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Among 206 lung cancer patients with ILD who were treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy, 30 patients were included. The median age was 72 years and all patients were men with smoking history. Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and non‐UIP patterns of ILD was observed in 17 and 13 patients. Most of AE‐ILD occurred during second‐ or later‐line (22/30, 73.3%) and developed within first or second courses during chemotherapy (19/30, 63.3%). Regarding tumor response to chemotherapy at AE‐ILD development, majority of patients (18 patients, 60.0%) experienced progressive disease and only one patient (3.3%) experienced a partial response. Notably, 27 patients (90.0%) did not exhibit any tumor shrinkage of the thoracic lesions. Conclusion Lung cancer was uncontrolled with cytotoxic chemotherapy at the time of AE‐ILD development. Although AE‐ILD during chemotherapy has been generally discussed in terms of drug‐specific adverse effects, uncontrolled lung cancer may be also correlated with AE‐ILD development.

Abstract
Background Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most serious complication of chemotherapy in lung cancer patients with pre-existing ILD. The effect of anti-angiogenic drugs in lung cancer patients with ILD remains unclear. We examined the effect of anti-angiogenic drugs on reducing the risk of ILD progression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving chemotherapy. Methods We analyzed the risk of ILD progression in 52 patients with advanced NSCLC with ILD who received first-line chemotherapy with (anti-angiogenic group, n = 22) and without (non-anti-angiogenic group, n = 30) anti-angiogenic drugs between August 2014 and January 2021. Results The incidences of chemotherapy-related ILD progression were significantly lower in the anti-angiogenic than in the non-anti-angiogenic groups (0% vs. 20.0%, p = 0.033). However, there were no differences in other events as the competing risk factors of ILD progression between the two groups. The overall-cumulative incidence of ILD progression during the first-line and subsequent chemotherapy was 30.8% (16 of the 52). The median progression-free survival had no significant difference between the anti-angiogenic and the non-anti-angiogenic groups (10.3 vs. 8.1 months, p = 0.386). Conclusions The addition of anti-angiogenic drugs to chemotherapy regimens may reduce the risk of chemotherapy-related ILD progression in patients with NSCLC-ILD.

ERJ Open Res 2022; 8:00115-2022. [PMID: 35747227 PMCID: PMC9209850 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00115-2022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (fILD) have increased morbidity and mortality. Lung fibrosis can be associated with lung cancer. The pathogenesis of both diseases shows similarities, although not all mechanisms are understood. The combination of the diseases is challenging, due to the amplified risk of mortality, and also because lung cancer treatment carries additional risks in patients with underlying lung fibrosis. Acute exacerbations in fILD patients are linked to increased mortality, and the risk of acute exacerbations is increased after lung cancer treatment with surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Careful selection of treatment modalities is crucial to improve survival while maintaining acceptable quality of life in patients with combined lung cancer and fILD. This overview of epidemiology, pathogenesis, treatment and a possible role for antifibrotic drugs in patients with lung cancer and fILD is the summary of a session presented during the virtual European Respiratory Society Congress in 2021. The review summarises current knowledge and identifies areas of uncertainty. Most current data relate to patients with combined idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and lung cancer. There is a pressing need for additional prospective studies, required for the formulation of a consensus statement or guideline on the optimal care of patients with lung cancer and fILD. Lung fibrosis can be associated with lung cancer. More and better-designed studies are needed to determine the true incidence/prevalence of lung cancer in fILD. Optimal treatment strategies urgently need to be defined and evaluated.https://bit.ly/37CzTMu

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

Abstract
Background We conducted a phase II study of carboplatin plus nab‐paclitaxel for the treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) after the failure of a prior standard chemotherapy containing platinum, etoposide, irinotecan, and amrubicin if indicated. Patients with interstitial pneumonia complications were included in the study. Methods Patients received 100 mg/m2 of nab‐paclitaxel weekly (on days 1, 8, and 15) and an AUC 5 of carboplatin on day 1. The study treatment was repeated every 3 weeks until disease progression or the appearance of unacceptable toxicities. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. Results A total of 21 patients were enrolled, all of whom were eligible for inclusion in the analysis. Twelve patients had pre‐existing interstitial pneumonia. The overall response rate was 19.0% (90% confidence interval [CI]: 6.8%–38.4%). The lower limit of the 90% CI for the response rate did not exceed the prespecified threshold value of 10%. Among the 12 patients with pre‐existing interstitial pneumonia, the response rate was 25%. The median progression‐free survival time was 2.5 months (95% CI: 1.5–3.4 months), and the median survival time was 5.1 months (95% CI: 2.1–8.1 months). Two patients developed interstitial lung disease; both of these patients had pre‐existing interstitial pneumonia. One of the patients died from interstitial lung disease. Conclusion Combination chemotherapy with carboplatin plus nab‐paclitaxel for recurrent SCLC had a modest activity, although the primary study endpoint was not met. Further investigation of this regimen for patients with recurrent SCLC and interstitial pneumonia is warranted.

Risk factors for pneumonitis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors plus chemotherapy: A retrospective analysis. Thorac Cancer 2022; 13:724-731. [PMID: 35044093 PMCID: PMC8888158 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14308] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2021] [Revised: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy plus chemotherapy has become a standard of care for patients with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pre‐existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a risk factor for drug‐induced pneumonitis caused by chemotherapy or ICI monotherapy. However, clinical data in patients with pre‐existing ILD who received ICI therapy plus chemotherapy are limited. This study aimed to identify the risk factors for drug‐induced pneumonitis in patients with NSCLC treated with ICIs plus chemotherapy. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 160 consecutive patients who were diagnosed with NSCLC and treated with ICIs plus chemotherapy at Aichi Cancer Center Hospital between December 2018 and November 2020. Patients with a prior history of ICI treatment or thoracic radiotherapy were excluded from the analysis. Results Among 125 patients, pre‐existing ILD was observed in 20 patients (16.0%). Drug‐induced pneumonitis developed in 17 patients (13.6%), with a median time to onset of 19.3 weeks (range, 1.6–108.9 weeks). In multivariate logistic analysis, pre‐existing ILD (odds ratio = 19.07, p = 0.0001) and PEM exposure (odds ratio = 5.67, p = 0.022) were identified as risk factors for the development of drug‐induced pneumonitis. Conclusions Pre‐existing ILD and pemetrexed exposure are risk factors for drug‐induced pneumonitis in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
We describe a case of a 77-year-old male with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) complicated by lung adenocarcinoma and organizing pneumonia (OP). On initial examination, physical examination revealed fine crackles in both sides of his chest. There were no physical findings suggestive of collagen disease. Blood tests showed no elevation of C-reactive protein, and lactate dehydrogenase and Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) were within normal limits. A high-resolution CT (HRCT) of the chest showed multiple ground-glass opacities (GGOs) in both lungs, with consolidation and traction bronchiectasis in the left lower lobe. Although a bronchoscopy was performed, no diagnosis could be made. Bronchoalveolar lavage showed elevated lymphocytes, and treatment with prednisolone was started for the possibility of OP. Subsequent chest X-ray and chest CT showed worsening of the shadows over time, and shortness of breath on exertion progressed. Surgical lung biopsy revealed IPF complicated by adenocarcinoma and OP. Although the patient was treated with pemetrexed and carboplatin combination therapy, respiratory failure progressed, and palliative care was decided. There is no report of IPF complicated by adenocarcinoma and OP, and early surgical lung biopsy may be important for diagnosis.

Impact of sarcopenia on chemotherapy-triggered exacerbation of interstitial lung disease in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Thorac Cancer 2021; 13:549-556. [PMID: 34964266 PMCID: PMC8841712 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14294] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2021] [Revised: 12/07/2021] [Accepted: 12/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background While recent evidence has suggested that sarcopenia could predict chemotoxicity, its association with chemotherapy‐triggered interstitial lung disease (ILD) exacerbations has yet to be investigated. Thus, the present study sought to determine whether sarcopenia could predict ILD exacerbations and overall survival (OS) in patients with ILD‐complicated non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods From January 2010 to July 2020, 74 patients with ILD‐complicated NSCLC who received chemotherapy were retrospectively investigated. After categorizing patients according to the presence or absence of sarcopenia based on the psoas muscle index, ILD exacerbation rates and OS were evaluated. Results Among the patients in the study, 39 were included in the sarcopenia group. Moreover, 17 (22.9%) patients developed ILD exacerbations, with the sarcopenia and nonsarcopenia groups having an exacerbation rate of 33.3% and 11.4%, respectively (p = 0.025). Multivariate analysis identified sarcopenia as an independent predictor of ILD exacerbations (p = 0.039). Furthermore, patients with sarcopenia demonstrated a significantly shorter median OS compared to those without the same (9.2 vs. 13.3 months; p = 0.029). Conclusions Sarcopenia predicted chemotherapy‐triggered ILD exacerbation and OS in patients with ILD‐complicated NSCLC, suggesting its utility in determining treatment approaches.

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

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) worsens the prognosis for overall survival (OS) due to chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbation (AE)-ILD. The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS), which is based on serum C-reactive protein and albumin levels, has been suggested as a reliable prognostic tool for mortality in cancer patients, including NSCLC. In this study, we investigated whether GPS is a predictor for chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and pre-existing ILD. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review on 56 NSCLC and ILD patients at our hospital who received platinum agent-based treatment as first-line chemotherapy between June 2010 and May 2019. We categorized these patients according to their GPS (0-2) and compared the incidence of chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS. RESULTS The GPS 0, 1, and 2 groups included 31, 16, and nine patients, respectively, out of 56. A total of 12 (21.4%) patients showed chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD. The median OS was at 11.5 months (95% confidence interval: 8.0-15.1). The incidence of chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD within the first year of chemotherapy in the GPS 0, 1, and 2 groups was three (9.6%), four (25.0%), and five (55.5%), and the median OS time was 16.9, 9.8 and 7.6 months, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that only GPS 2 could predict both chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS GPS assessment of patients with NSCLC and pre-existing ILD is a valuable prognostic tool for predicting chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS. KEY POINTS SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS OF THE STUDY: We found that GPS 2 was an independent risk factor for chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and prognosis in patients with ILD associated with NSCLC. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS GPS may potentially enable the discrimination of patients tolerant of chemotherapy from those at an increased risk of AE-ILD and predict the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and ILD receiving chemotherapy.

Abstract
Background The safety of pembrolizumab monotherapy in treatment‐naïve non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with high programed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) expression and pre‐existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) has not yet been determined. Here, we aimed to evaluate the prognosis, efficacy and safety associated with pembrolizumab in such settings. Methods In this single‐institution retrospective study conducted from May 2017 to October 2019, pembrolizumab was administered to 72 Japanese patients with treatment‐naïve advanced NSCLC with PD‐L1 tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%. Patients with ILD were assigned to the ILD group, and those without to the non‐ILD group. Between‐group comparisons were then performed. Results Of the 72 patients, 61 (84.7%) were male. The median age was 70 years. A total of 64 patients (88.9%) had a smoking history, median PD‐L1 TPS status was 77.5%, and 10 of the 72 patients (13.9%) had ILD on pretreatment computed tomography. The objective response rate (ORR) was 45.8% and disease control rate (DCR) was 75.0%. The ORR was 70.0% and DCR was 90.0% in the ILD group, while the ORR was 41.9% and DCR was 72.6% in the non‐ILD group. The median overall survival was 568 days; the value in the non‐ILD group was 521 days, while in the ILD group was not reached. There was no significant difference between the two groups (log‐lank, P = 0.73). Conclusions Pembrolizumab was administered to patients with pre‐existing ILD with no difference in prognosis compared to patients without ILD. In patients with ILD, physicians should consider the expected long‐term prognosis and risk of adverse events.

Abstract
Background Pirfenidone is an antifibrotic agent that is potentially effective for the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, no study has reported on its prophylactic value against chemotherapy‐associated acute IPF exacerbations when combined with chemotherapy for non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The present study assessed the safety and effectiveness of pirfenidone combined with carboplatin‐based chemotherapy or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with IPF and NSCLC. Methods A total of 14 patients with IPF and NSCLC who received treatment from 2013 to 2019 were included. Patients were treated with pirfenidone combined with carboplatin and nanoparticle albumin‐bound paclitaxel or S‐1 as first‐line chemotherapy. After confirming disease progression, patients received cytotoxic agents or ICIs, including nivolumab and pembrolizumab. Pirfenidone was continued regardless of chemotherapy changes. Overall survival (OS) and progression‐free survival (PFS) for lung cancer and IPF were calculated. Moreover, the cumulative incidence of acute exacerbation of IPF (AE‐IPF) within one year was evaluated. Results Median PFS for lung cancer was 110 days (95% confidence interval [CI]: 57–199 days), while the median OS was 362 days (95% CI: 220–526 days). Moreover, PFS for IPF was 447 days (95% CI: 286–indeterminate days), and the cumulative incidence of AE‐IPF within one year was 18%. Notably, none of the patients developed AE‐IPF associated with first‐line chemotherapy. Among the included patients, four received ICIs, none of whom developed ICI‐associated AE‐IPF. Conclusions The present study found that pirfenidone combined with carboplatin‐based regimens or ICIs might be safe first‐line chemotherapy for patients with IPF and NSCLC. Key points Significant findings of the study No patients with IPF and NSCLC who received pirfenidone in combination with first‐line carboplatin‐based chemotherapy or late‐line ICIs developed acute IPF exacerbations.
What this study addsPirfenidone might have a prophylactic effect against chemotherapy‐associated AE‐IPF.

Abstract
Background: Lung cancer is a well-known comorbidity of interstitial lung disease (ILD), and the actual efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (NSCLC-ILD) have not been determined. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC-ILD. Methods: We searched related studies from the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase. The endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), 1-year overall survival rate (1-yOS rate), and first-line chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease rate (AE-ILD rate). Results: We included 21 studies involving 684 patients in our analysis. The pooled ORR was 43% (95% CI: 38.0–49.0%), and the pooled DCR was 80.0% (95% CI: 75.7–83.9%). The modified overall 1-yOS rate was 33.0% (95% CI: 29.0–37.0%). The pooled AE-ILD rate was 8.07% (95% CI: 6.12–10.26%). Subgroup analysis revealed a trend for lower AE-ILD rate (4.98%; 95% CI: 2.44–8.37%) in patients with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel. Lung function and AE-ILD may be associated with the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD. Conclusions: First-line chemotherapy is effective in patients with NSCLC-ILD, and the AE-ILD rate is acceptable, but the prognosis is limited. Future randomized controlled trials are needed to explore more appropriate treatment regimens to improve the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD.

Abstract
Objective Pembrolizumab has benefited patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a programmed death-ligand (PD-L) 1 high expression, but little information is available regarding its safety for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of pembrolizumab for patients with advanced NSCLC and preexisting ILD. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of five patients with advanced NSCLC and preexisting ILD who received pembrolizumab monotherapy in a first-line setting. Patients All patients had mild ILD and pulmonary emphysema with a forced vital capacity within the normal range. Pembrolizumab was administered at a dose of 200 mg/body on day 1 every 3 weeks. Results The overall response rate was 60%. Four patients developed pembrolizumab-induced lung injury, which was improved in all cases by corticosteroid therapy. One patient received pembrolizumab for two years, did not experience lung injury and achieved a complete response. Conclusion Pembrolizumab has a high risk of inducing lung injury in patients with preexisting ILD, although it may be very effective in NSCLC patients with a high PD-L1 expression, even concurrent with preexisting ILD. Further large-scale studies are needed to determine risk factors of pembrolizumab-induced lung injury in such patients.

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

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

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

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Pemetrexed plus platinum followed by pemetrexed maintenance has been one of the standard first-line treatments in advanced nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but little is known regarding its safety and efficacy for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). PATIENTS AND METHODS The medical records of 24 patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC and preexisting ILD who received pemetrexed and platinum doublet therapy with and without pemetrexed maintenance in the first-line setting between December 2009 and June 2016, were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS The median progression-free survival time was 4.7 months, and the median overall survival time was 9.5 months. Of the 24 patients analyzed, six received pemetrexed maintenance. Acute exacerbation of ILD (AE-ILD) occurred in five (20.8 %) of 24 patients, including two fatal cases. CONCLUSION The treatment with pemetrexed plus platinum has a high risk of AE-ILD in patients with advanced nonsquamous NSCLC and preexisting ILD.

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

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

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

A prospective phase II study of carboplatin and nab-paclitaxel in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and concomitant interstitial lung disease (HOT1302). Lung Cancer 2019; 138:65-71. [PMID: 31654836 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2019.09.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2019] [Revised: 09/24/2019] [Accepted: 09/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with concomitant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) are excluded from most clinical chemotherapy trials because of the high risk of exacerbating the latter condition. This study prospectively investigated the efficacy and safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in combination with carboplatin in patients with both advanced NSCLC and ILD. PATIENTS AND METHODS The enrolled patients had treatment-naïve, advanced NSCLC with ILD. Patients received 100 mg/m2nab-paclitaxel weekly and carboplatin at an area under the concentration-time curve of 6 once every 3 weeks for 4-6 cycles. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate (ORR); secondary endpoints included toxicity, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Thirty-six patients were enrolled between April 2014 and September 2017. Sixteen patients (44.4%) had adenocarcinoma, 15 (41.7%) had squamous cell carcinoma (Sq), and 5 (13.9%) had non-small cell carcinoma. The median number of cycles administered were 4 (range: 1-6). The ORR was 55.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 39.6-70.5). The median PFS and OS were 5.3 months (95% CI: 3.9-8.2) and 15.4 months (95% CI: 9.4-18.7), respectively. A greater proportion of patients with Sq experienced improvements than did those with non-Sq: ORRs, 66.7% (95% CI: 41.7-84.8) vs. 47.6% (95% CI: 28.3-67.6) (P = 0.254); median PFS, 8.2 months (95% CI: 4.0-10.2) vs. 4.1 months (95% CI: 3.3-5.4) (HR, 0.60 [95% CI, 0.30-1.20]; P = 0.15); and median OS, 16.8 months (95% CI: 9.8-not reached) vs. 11.9 months (95% CI: 7.3-17.4) (HR, 0.56 [95% CI, 0.24-1.28]; P = 0.17). Two patients (5.6%) experienced grade ≥2 pneumonitis and 1 patient (2.8%) died. CONCLUSION Weekly nab-paclitaxel combined with carboplatin showed favorable efficacy with acceptable toxicity in patients with both advanced NSCLC and ILD.

Abstract
The risk of lung cancer is higher in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) because both conditions share common risk factors. However, no standard treatment modality for LC in IPF exists due to rare incidence, poor prognosis, and acute exacerbation (AE) of IPF during treatment. We aimed to determine the efficacy of LC treatments and the prognosis in LC patients with IPF according to the LC stage and GAP (gender [G], age [A], and two physiology variables [P]) stage. From 2003 to 2016, 160 retrospectively enrolled patients were classified according to the LC clinical stage and GAP stage. The average (±standard deviation) patient age was 70.1 ± 8.2 years; the cohort predominantly comprised men (94.4%). In GAP stage I, surgery was significantly associated with better survival outcomes in LC. In contrast, no treatment modality yielded significant clinical improvement in GAP stage II/III. The incidences of AE in IPF and its mortality during treatment were 13.8% and 6.3%, respectively. AE occurred commonly in advanced GAP stage. Active treatment should be considered in GAP stage I. The performance status and LC stage should be considered when deciding about the necessity of surgery for patients in advanced GAP stage.

Abstract
Background Lung cancer is a common comorbidity of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and has poor outcomes. The incidence and clinical factors related to development of lung cancer in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are unclear. The aim of this study was to elucidate the cumulative incidence, risk factors, and clinical characteristics of lung cancer in IPF. Methods In this retrospective study, we analyzed clinical data for 938 patients who were diagnosed with IPF without lung cancer between 1998 and 2013. Demographic, physiologic, radiographic, and histologic characteristics were reviewed. Cumulative incidence of lung cancer and survival were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Risk factors of lung cancer development were determined by Cox proportional hazard analysis. Results Among 938 IPF patients without lung cancer at initial diagnosis, lung cancer developed in 135 (14.5%) during the follow-up period. The cumulative incidences of lung cancer were 1.1% at 1 year, 8.7% at 3, 15.9% at 5, and 31.1% at 10 years. Risk factors of lung cancer were male gender, current smoking at IPF diagnosis, and rapid annual decline of 10% or more in forced vital capacity (FVC). Patients who developed lung cancer were mostly elderly men with smoking history. Squamous cell carcinoma followed by adenocarcinoma was the most common histologic type. Lung cancer was frequently located in areas abutting or within fibrosis. Survival was significantly worse in patients with lung cancer compared to patients with IPF alone. Conclusion Lung cancer frequently developed in patients with IPF and was common in current-smoking men with rapid decline of FVC.

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

Weekly paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias: a single-arm phase II study. Int J Clin Oncol 2019; 24:1543-1548. [PMID: 31352631 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-019-01516-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2018] [Accepted: 07/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) are associated with increased risk of lung cancer. In Japan, acute exaberation of IIPs induced by anticancer treatment is a critical issue. For this reason, there is limited available evidence regarding the optimal treatment approach for lung cancer patients complicated with IIPs. Our previous prospective pilot study demonstrated the safety and efficacy of weekly paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with IIPs. The current study was conducted to confirm the results of the same combination therapy used in a larger patient population. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced stage or post-operative recurrent NSCLC patients complicated by IIPs were enrolled. Patients received paclitaxel (100 mg/m2) on days 1, 8, and 15, and carboplatin (AUC 5.0) once every 4 weeks. RESULTS Thirty-three of 35 enrolled patients were evaluable for analysis and received a median of four treatment cycles (range 1-6). Four patients (12.1%; 95% confidence interval 3.4-28.2%) had acute exacerbation (AEx)-related IIPs to the study treatment. However, no fatalities due to AEx were observed. The overall response was 69.7%. The median progression-free survival, median survival time, and 1-year survival were 6.3 months, 19.8 months, and 55.4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy of carboplatin plus weekly paclitaxel treatment for advanced NSCLC patients with IIPs was comparable to that of conventional chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients without IIPs. Moreover, the primary endpoint was set to the frequency of treatment-related acute exacerbation, and the primary endpoint was met. These results suggest that patients with advanced NSCLC complicated by IIPs may benefit from this combination chemotherapy.

Abstract
A 76-year-old Japanese woman with recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma presented with acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (AE-IIP) after transcatheter arterial therapy using miriplatin. She had a history of preexisting IIP five years before presenting at our hospital. On day 4 after transcatheter arterial therapy, she complained of shortness of breath. Subsequently, she developed acute respiratory failure on day 11 after transcatheter arterial therapy. Chest computed tomography revealed extensive ground-glass opacity and traction bronchiectasis in bilateral lung fields; subsequently, she was diagnosed with AE-IIP triggered by transcatheter arterial therapy using miriplatin. Despite systemic administration of high-dose corticosteroid and cyclophosphamide, she died of respiratory failure on day 36.

Abstract
Background Acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease (AE-ILD) is the most serious complication in lung cancer patients with pre-existing ILD receiving chemotherapy. The role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in pathogenesis of AE-ILD is conflicting. The influence of bevacizumab (Bev), a monoclonal antibody against VEGF, on lung cancer patients with pre-existing ILD remains unclear. We examined the effect of Bev on reducing AE-ILD risk in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients receiving chemotherapy. Methods We analysed incidence of AE-ILD and outcomes of 48 patients with advanced non-squamous NSCLC with ILD who received first-line chemotherapy with (Bev group, n = 17) and without (non-Bev group, n = 31) Bev between July 2011 and July 2016. Gray’s test, which was competing risk analysis during the study period, was performed for both groups. Results The most common regimen used for first-line chemotherapy was the combination of carboplatin plus pemetrexed (PEM) in both groups. The incidences of chemotherapy-related AE-ILD 120 days after first-line chemotherapy initiation were significantly lower in the Bev than in the non-Bev groups (0% vs. 22.6%, p = 0.037, Gray’s test). However, there were no differences in development of progressive disease of lung cancer and other events as the competing risk factors of AE-ILD between the two groups. Only patients receiving PEM-containing regimens also showed a significant difference in the incidence of AE-ILD between the two groups (p = 0.044). The overall-cumulative incidence of AE-ILD during the first-line and subsequent chemotherapy was 29.2% (14 of the 48). The median progression-free survival was significantly longer in the Bev than in the non-Bev groups (8.0 vs. 4.3 months, p = 0.026). Conclusions The addition of Bev to chemotherapy regimens may reduce the risk of chemotherapy-related AE-ILD in patients with lung cancer.
