Abstract
Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) are immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-related pneumonitis (ICI-P) risk factors. However, the relationship between imaging patterns and immunotherapy outcomes, and treatment strategies remain unclear in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and ILAs. We retrospectively evaluated patients with ILAs-complicated NSCLC who received ICI therapy. ILAs were subcategorized as non-subpleural, subpleural non-fibrotic, and subpleural fibrotic (SF) based on the 2020 position paper by the Fleischner Society. We investigated ICI-P incidence, ICI-P risk factors, lung cancer prognosis, and ILAs radiological progression. Of the 481 ICI-treated patients, 79 (16.4%) had ILAs (45 non-SF and 34 SF). The ICI-P cumulative incidence (hazard ratio, 4.57; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.90-10.98; p = 0.001) and any grade and grade ≥ 3 ICI-P incidences were higher in patients with SF-ILAs than in those with non-SF-ILAs (all grades: 7/45 [15.6%)] vs. 18/34 [52.9%]; p < 0.001; grade ≥ 3: 1/45 [2.2%] vs. 10/34 [29.4%]; p = 0.001). According to multivariate analysis, SF-ILAs independently predicted ICI-P (odds ratio, 5.35; 95% CI 1.62-17.61; p = 0.006). Patients with SF-ILAs had shorter progression-free and overall survival and higher ICI-P-related respiratory failure death rates than those with non-SF-ILAs. Approximately 2.5 times more patients with SF-ILAs showed progression by the 2-year follow-up than those with non-SF-ILAs. SF-ILAs is an independent strong predictor of ICI-P development in patients with NSCLC, may increase ICI-P severity, worsen prognosis, and accelerate ILAs progression. ILAs subcategorization is an important treatment strategy for patients with lung cancer treated with ICIs.

SARCOIDOSIS, VASCULITIS, AND DIFFUSE LUNG DISEASES : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF WASOG 2024; 41:e2024002. [PMID: 38567555 PMCID: PMC11008323 DOI: 10.36141/svdld.v41i1.15264] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal and progressive interstitial lung disease with varying degrees of hypoxemia. Long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) is frequently used to treat hypoxemia, however the prognostic factors for better survival in IPF patients after initiation of LTOT remain unknown. METHODS We retrospectively investigated favorable factors of survival in consecutive 55 IPF patients with chronic respiratory failure who were introduced LTOT. RESULTS The 6-, 12-, 18-, and 24-month survival rates in IPF patients after introduction of LTOT were 70.9%, 49.0%, 45.2%, and 32.3%, respectively. Univariate analysis demonstrated that low Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) (hazard ratio [HR] 0.482, p=0.043) and treatment with antifibrotic agents (HR 0.401, p=0.013) were associated with favorable survival, while multivariate analysis revealed that treatment with antifibrotic agents was the independent predictor (HR 0.449, p=0.032). Moreover, IPF patients treated with antifibrotic agents with LTOT had significantly longer survival than those without antifibrotic agents (p = 0.0106). CONCLUSION In IPF patients who were introduced LTOT, treatment with antifibrotic agents was the independent factor for favorable survival. Treatment with antifibrotic agents may improve prognosis of IPF even after initiation of LTOT.

Clinical impact of inflammatory and nutrition index based on metabolic tumor activity in non‑small cell lung cancer treated with immunotherapy. Oncol Lett 2024; 27:110. [PMID: 38304175 PMCID: PMC10831397 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2024.14243] [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: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 02/03/2024] Open
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to explore the relationship between tumor metabolic glycolysis and inflammatory or nutritional status in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who received programmed death-1 (PD-1) blockade. A total of 186 patients were registered in the present study. All of patients underwent 18F-FDG PET imaging before initial PD-1 blockade, and maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), metabolic tumor volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were assessed as indicators of 18F-FDG uptake. As inflammatory and nutritional index, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ration (PLR), systemic immune inflammation index (SII), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) and Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) were evaluated based on previous assessment. 18F-FDG uptake by MTV and TLG significantly correlated with the scores of NLR, PLR, SII, PNI and ALI, in addition to the level of albumin, lactate dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes and body mass index. The count of NLR, PLR and SII was significantly higher in patients with <1 year overall survival (OS) compared with in those with ≥1 year OS, and that of PNI and ALI was significantly lower in those with <1 year OS compared with those with ≥1 year OS. High MTV under the high PLR, SII and low ALI were identified as significant factors for predicting the decreased PFS and OS after PD-1 blockade in a first-line setting. In second or more lines, high MTV was identified as a significant prognostic predictor regardless of the levels of PLR, SII, ALI and GPS. In conclusion, metabolic tumor glycolysis determined by MTV was identified as a predictor for the outcome of PD-1 blockade under the high inflammatory and low nutritional conditions, in particular, when treated with a first-line PD-1 blockade. A high MTV under high PLR and SII and low ALI in the first-line setting could be more predictive of ICI treatment than other combinations.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for acute exacerbation (AE) of interstitial lung disease caused by chemotherapy for lung cancer. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, and The Cochrane Library databases from the establishment of each database to April 2023. Eligible studies were included, and the data on risk factors related to AE caused by chemotherapy in interstitial lung disease were extracted. Results A total of 878 articles were retrieved and 21 met the inclusion criteria. The studies included 1,275 patients with lung cancer combined with interstitial lung disease. The results of the meta-analysis showed four significant risk factors for AE of interstitial lung disease, namely age < 70 years (odds ratio [OR]: 1.98, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.05-3.72), forced vital capacity (FVC) (MD=-9.33, 95% CI: -13.7-4.97), usually interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern on computed tomography (CT) (OR: 2.11, 95% CI: 1.43-3.11), and serum surfactant protein D (SP-D) (SMD: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.03-0.67). Conclusion When patients with lung cancer complicated with interstitial lung disease are aged < 70 years, have a UIP pattern on CT, have lower FVC values, and have higher serum levels of SP-D, chemotherapy should be carried out with care.

Abstract
Background: Systemic inflammation is a key factor in tumor growth. The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS) has a certain value in predicting the prognosis of lung cancer. However, these results still do not have a unified direction. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to investigate the relationship between GPS and the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We set patients as follows: GPS = 0 vs. GPS = 1 or 2, GPS = 0 vs. GPS = 1, GPS = 0 vs. GPS = 2. We collected the hazard ratio (HR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: A total of 21 studies were included, involving 7333 patients. We observed a significant correlation with GPS and poor OS in NSCLC patients (HRGPS=0 vs. GPS=1 or 2 = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.27–2.07, p ≤ .001; HRGPS=0 vs GPS=1 = 2.14, 95% CI:1.31–3.49, p ≤ .001; HRGPS=0 vs. GPS=2 = 2.64, 95% CI: 1.45–4.82, p ≤ .001). Moreover, we made a subgroup analysis of surgery and stage. The results showed that when divided into GPS = 0 group and GPS = 1 or 2 group, the effect of high GPS on OS was more obvious in surgery (HR = 1.79, 95% CI: 1.08–2.97, p = .024). When GPS was divided into two groups (GPS = 0 and GPS = 1 or 2), the III-IV stage, higher GPS is associated with poor OS (HR = 1.73, 95% CI: 1.43–2.09, p ≤ .001). In the comparison of GPS = 0 and GPS = 1 group (HR = 1.56, 95% CI: 1.05–2.31, p = .026) and the grouping of GPS = 0 and GPS = 2(HR = 2.23, 95% CI: 1.17–4.26, p = .015), we came to the same conclusion. Conclusion: For patients with NSCLC, higher GPS is associated with poor prognosis, and GPS may be a reliable prognostic indicator. The decrease of GPS after pretreatment may be an effective way to improve the prognosis of NSCLC.

Abstract
Background It has been reported that Osaka prognostic score (OPS), based on C-reactive protein (CRP), total lymphocyte counts (TLC) and albumin (ALB), was relevant to prognosis in colorectal cancer. However, the role of OPS regarding prognosis in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has not been reported. The current study aimed to explore the clinical outcome of OPS and establish and validate a nomogram for survival prediction in ESCC after radical resection. Methods This retrospective study included 395 consecutive ESCC patients with radical resection. Then patients were randomly divided into two cohorts: training cohort (276) and validation cohort (119). The OPS, based on TLC, CRP and ALB, was constructed to verify the prognostic value by Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox analyses. A nomogram model for prognosis prediction of cancer-specific survival (CSS) was developed and validated in two cohorts. Results Kaplan-Meier curves regarding the 5-year CSS for the groups of OPS 0, 1, 2 and 3 were 55.3, 30.6, 17.3 and 6.7% (P < 0.001) in the training cohort and 52.6, 33.3, 15.8 and 9.1% (P < 0.001) in the validation cohort, respectively. Then the OPS score in multivariate Cox analysis was confirmed to be a useful independent score. Finally, a predictive OPS-based nomogram was developed and validated with a C-index of 0.68 in the training cohort and 0.67 in the validation cohort, respectively. All above results indicated that the OPS-based nomogram can accurately and effectively predict survival in ESCC after radical resection. Conclusion The OPS serves as a novel, convenient and effective predictor in ESCC after radical resection. The OPS-based nomogram has potential independent prognostic value, which can accurately and effectively predict individual CSS in ESCC after radical resection.

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
PURPOSE Cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury is a fatal complication in patients with lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD). We aimed to evaluate the association between hyperglycemia and this form of lung injury in patients with lung cancer concomitant with ILD. METHODS From 1147 patients with advanced lung cancer, we retrospectively enrolled 98 patients with ILD whose hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels were measured, and investigated the association between HbA1c levels and cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury. In 73 patients whose serum samples were retained, we measured serum levels of advanced glycation end products (AGE) and assessed the association of AGE levels with HbA1c levels and cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury. RESULTS The incidence of cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury was significantly higher in patients with HbA1c levels ≥ 5.8% than in those with HbA1c levels < 5.8%, but not in those with HbA1c levels ≥ 6.5% than in those with HbA1c levels < 6.5%. The multivariate logistic regression model revealed that HbA1c level ≥ 5.8% was a significant risk factor for this complication [odds ratio 3.178 (95% confidence interval 1.057-9.556), P = 0.040]. In addition, serum AGE levels were significantly higher in patients with HbA1c levels ≥ 5.8% than in those with HbA1c levels < 5.8% [median (interquartile range); 0.129 (0.023-0.290) and 0.474 (0.213-1.109) μg/mL, P = 0.001]. CONCLUSION Glucose intolerance (e.g., HbA1c level ≥ 5.8%) may be a risk factor of cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury, which might be associated with elevated AGE production due to hyperglycemia.
