Clinical management, monitoring, and prophylaxis of adverse events of special interest associated with datopotamab deruxtecan. Cancer Treat Rev 2024; 125:102720. [PMID: 38502995 DOI: 10.1016/j.ctrv.2024.102720] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are an emerging class of treatments designed to improve efficacy and decrease toxicity compared with other systemic therapies through the selective delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor cells. Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) is a novel ADC comprising a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload and a monoclonal antibody directed to trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2), a protein that is broadly expressed in several types of solid tumors. Dato-DXd is being investigated across multiple solid tumor indications. In the ongoing, first-in-human TROPION-PanTumor01 phase I study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03401385), encouraging and durable antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile was demonstrated in patients with advanced/metastatic hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor2-negative breast cancer (HR+/HER2- BC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Improved understanding of the adverse events (AEs) that are associated with Dato-DXd and their optimal management is essential to ensure safe and successful administration. Interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, infusion-related reactions, oral mucositis/stomatitis, and ocular surface events have been identified as AEs of special interest (AESIs) for which appropriate prevention, monitoring, and management is essential. This article summarizes the incidence of AESIs among patients with HR+/HER2- BC, TNBC, and NSCLC reported in TROPION-PanTumor01. We report our recommendations for AESI prophylaxis, early detection, and management, using experience gained from treating AESIs that occur with Dato-DXd in clinical trials.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-targeted therapy is used to treat EGFR mutation-induced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its efficacy does not last beyond a certain period due to the development of primary and secondary resistance. First and second-generation inhibitors (e.g., gefitinib, erlotinib, and afatinib) induce EGFR T790M mutations, while third-generation inhibitors (e.g., osimertinib) induce C797S as a major target resistance mutation. Therefore, the C797S mutation is being actively researched. In this study, we investigated the structure-activity relationship of several synthesized compounds as fourth-generation inhibitors against the C797S mutation. We identified a compound 13k that displayed nanomolar potency and high selectivity. Moreover, we used a triple mutant xenograft mouse model to evaluate the in vivo efficacy of 13k in inhibiting EGFR C797S, which demonstrated exceptional profiles and satisfactory EGFR C797S inhibition efficacy. Based on its excellent in vitro and in vivo profiles, compound 13k can be considered a promising candidate for treating EGFR C797S mutations.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) are at markedly increased risk for duodenal adenomas and cancer. Combination sulindac and erlotinib was previously shown to reduce duodenal polyp burden but was associated with a relatively high adverse event (AE) rate. OBJECTIVE To evaluate if a once weekly dosing schedule for erlotinib intervention improves the AE profile, while still providing efficacy with respect to reduced polyp burden, in participants with FAP. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Single-arm trial, enrolling 46 participants with FAP, conducted from October 2017 to September 2019 in eight academic cancer centres. EXPOSURES Participants self-administered 350 mg of erlotinib by mouth, one time per week for 6 months. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Duodenal polyp burden (sum of polyp diameters) was assessed in the proximal duodenum by esophagogastroduodenoscopy performed at baseline and 6 months, with mean per cent change defined as the primary efficacy outcome of interest. Rate of grade 2-3 AEs was evaluated as a co-primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included changes in total duodenal polyp count, along with changes in lower gastrointestinal (GI) polyp burden and count (for participants examined by optional lower endoscopy). RESULTS Forty-six participants (mean age, 44.1 years (range, 18-68); women, 22 (48%)) were enrolled; 42 participants completed 6 months of intervention and were included in the per-protocol analysis. Duodenal polyp burden was significantly reduced after 6 months of weekly erlotinib intervention, with a mean per cent change of -29.6% (95% CI, -39.6% to -19.7%; p<0.0001). Similar results were observed in subgroup analyses defined by participants with advanced duodenal polyposis (Spigelman 3) at baseline (mean, -27%; 95% CI, -38.7% to -15.2%; p<0.0001). Post-intervention Spigelman stage was downstaged in 12% of the participants. Lower GI polyp number was also decreased after 6 months of intervention (median, -30.8%; IQR, -47.4% to 0.0%; p=0.0256). Grade 2 or 3 AEs were reported in 71.7% of subjects, with only two experiencing grade 3 toxicity at least possibly related to intervention. CONCLUSION In this single-arm, multi-centre trial of participants with FAP, erlotinib one time per week resulted in markedly lower duodenal polyp burden, and modestly reduced lower GI polyp burden, after 6 months of intervention. While AEs were still reported by nearly three-quarters of all participants, these events were generally lower grade and well-tolerated. These findings support further investigation of erlotinib as an effective, acceptable cancer preventive agent for FAP-associated GI polyposis. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT02961374.

Abstract
Gefitinib (GEF) is an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor, linked to higher risk of severe/fatal interstitial lung disease (ILD). This study was performed to determine the protective roles of an angiotensin-II type-1 receptor (AT1R) "valsartan (VAL)" in prevention of lung inflammation, oxidative stress and metabolites alteration induced by GEF. Four groups of male Wistar albino rats were received vehicle, VAL (30 mg/kg), GEF (30 mg/kg), or both for four weeks. Blood samples and lungs were harvested for plasma metabolites and histological analysis, respectively, and evaluation of inflammation and oxidative stress. GEF monotherapy showed a dense inflammation in lungs, and significantly increased tumor necrosis factor-α (P = 0.0349), interleukin-6 (P < 0.0001), chemokine ligand-3 (P = 0.0420), and interleukin-1β (P = 0.0377). GEF increased oxidative stress markers including glutathione, malondialdehyde, and catalase levels. Also, several plasma metabolites including butanoic acid, N-methylphenylethanolamine, oxalic acid, l-alanine, phosphoric acid, l-theorinine, pyroglutamic acid, and 2-bromosebacic acid were changed by GEF. The combination of VAL plus GEF reduced the inflammation and oxidative stress mediated by GEF monotherapy. In addition, the combination treatment returned plasma metabolites to the normal levels compared to GEF monotherapy. These findings revealed that VAL has a possible pulmonary protective role against pulmonary toxicity of GEF, which may lead to novel approaches for management of GEF-induced ILD.

Abstract
Clinical applications of novel anticancer agents in the past few decades brought marked advances in cancer treatment, enabling remarkable efficacy and effectiveness; however, these novel agents are also associated with toxicities. Among various toxicities, drug-related pneumonitis is one of the major clinical challenges in the management of cancer patients. Imaging plays a key role in detection, diagnosis, and monitoring of drug-related pneumonitis during cancer treatment. In the current era of precision oncology, pneumonitis from molecular targeted therapy and immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) has been recognized as an event of clinical significance. Additionally, further advances of therapeutic approaches in cancer have brought several emerging issues in diagnosis and monitoring of pneumonitis. This article will describe the computed tomography (CT) pattern-based approach for drug-related pneumonitis that has been utilized to describe the imaging manifestations of pneumonitis from novel cancer therapies. Then, we will discuss pneumonitis from representative agents of precision cancer therapy, including mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors, epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, and ICI, focusing on the incidence, risk factors, and the spectrum of CT patterns. Finally, the article will address emerging challenges in the diagnosis and monitoring of pneumonitis, including pneumonitis from combination ICI and radiation therapy and from antibody conjugate therapy, as well as the overlapping imaging features of drug-related pneumonitis and coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia. The review is designed to provide a practical overview of drug-related pneumonitis from cutting-edge cancer therapy with emphasis on the role of imaging.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis remains an important adverse event identified with treatment with antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Drug-induced ILD (DILD) accounts for 3%-5% of common ILD cases and is a significant problem in clinical practice. Hence, with the anticipation of the widespread use of ADCs, it will be important for guidelines and recommendations to be established to direct and standardize the management of DILD by a multidisciplinary team (MDT). AREAS COVERED A thorough literature search was conducted using PubMed to identify relevant articles related to ADCs published between 1 January 2010 and 31 November 2022. Based on the review of the literature combined with expert opinions, this review article offers an overview of incidences of ILDs associated with the use of newer anticancer therapies, specifically ADCs, and discusses local-regional best practices in optimal monitoring, early diagnosis, and management of DILD involving an MDT. EXPERT OPINION Multidisciplinary input and consensus are crucial in the accurate diagnosis of DILD. The core group of essential attendees in the MDT are oncologists, pulmonologists, thoracic radiologists, and pathologists. This allows for the integration of expertise from different specialists to achieve a 'best fit' diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Among the various histopathological patterns of drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD), diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) is associated with poor prognosis. However, there is no reliable biomarker for its accurate diagnosis. Here, we show stratifin/14-3-3σ (SFN) as a biomarker candidate found in a proteomic analysis. The study includes two independent cohorts (including totally 26 patients with DAD) and controls (total 432 samples). SFN is specifically elevated in DILD patients with DAD, and is superior to the known biomarkers, KL-6 and SP-D, in discrimination of DILD patients with DAD from patients with other DILD patterns or other lung diseases. SFN is also increased in serum from patients with idiopathic DAD, and in lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of patients with DAD. In vitro analysis using cultured lung epithelial cells suggests that extracellular release of SFN occurs via p53-dependent apoptosis. We conclude that serum SFN is a promising biomarker for DAD diagnosis.

Abstract
Lung toxicity is a key limiting factor for cancer therapy, especially lung, breast, and esophageal malignancies. Radiotherapy for chest and breast malignancies can cause lung injury. However, systemic cancer therapy with chemotherapy may also induce lung pneumonitis and fibrosis. Radiotherapy produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) directly via interacting with water molecules within cells. However, radiation and other therapy modalities may induce the endogenous generation of ROS and nitric oxide (NO) by immune cells and some nonimmune cells such as fibroblasts and endothelial cells. There are several ROS generating enzymes within lung tissue. NADPH Oxidase enzymes, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), dual oxidases (DUOX1 and DUOX2), and the cellular respiratory system in the mitochondria are the main sources of ROS production following exposure of the lung to anticancer agents. Furthermore, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has a key role in the generation of NO following radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Continuous generation of ROS and NO by endothelial cells, fibroblasts, macrophages, and lymphocytes causes apoptosis, necrosis, and senescence, which lead to the release of inflammatory and pro-fibrosis cytokines. This review discusses the cellular and molecular mechanisms of redox-induced lung injury following cancer therapy and proposes some targets and perspectives to alleviate lung toxicity.

Abstract
Molecular targeted therapy significantly improved the therapeutic efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with driver gene mutations but also with new toxicity profiles. Although most patients treated with these drugs developed relatively controllable toxicity, significant pulmonary toxicity events, including interstitial lung disease, occurred in a small proportion of patients and can lead to discontinuation or even be life-threatening. Pulmonary toxicity associated with these anti-tumor drugs is a problem that cannot be ignored in clinical practice. The prompt diagnosis of drug-related lung injury and the consequent differential diagnosis with other forms of pulmonary disease are critical in the management of pulmonary toxicity. Current knowledge of the pathophysiology and management of pulmonary toxicity associated with these targeted drugs is limited, and participants should be able to identify and respond to the development of drug-induced pulmonary toxicity. This review offers information about the potential pathogenesis, risk factors and management for the development of these events based on the available literature. This review focused on pulmonary toxicities in driver gene-positive NSCLC therapy by describing the related adverse events to promote the awareness and management of this important toxicity related to antitumor-targeted therapy.

Abstract
Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the therapeutic horizons of various cancers. However, immune-related adverse events have been reported, including interstitial lung diseases. Our aim was to describe the clinical and radiological features and survival of a multicentre cohort of patients who developed ICI-related lung toxicity. Methods: Six Italian centres were involved in the study. Patients who were treated with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 and CTLA-4 mAbs and developed ICI-related lung toxicity were recruited retrospectively to study clinical, radiological, immunological and survival data. Results: A total of 41 patients (25 males, 66.8 ± 9.9 years) were enrolled. Lung toxicity occurred after 204.3 ± 208.3 days of therapy, with ground glass opacities being the most common HRCT pattern (23 cases). Male sex, lung cancer and acute respiratory failure were associated with a shorter latency of toxicity (p = 0.0030, p = 0.0245 and p = 0.0390, respectively). Patients who required high-flow oxygen therapy showed significantly worse survival (p = 0.0028). Conclusions: Our cohort showed heterogeneous clinical and radiological aspects of ICI-related lung toxicity, with a latency not limited to the first year of treatment. Severity was mainly mild to moderate, although life-threatening events did occur. Our data indicate that strict long-term follow-up is needed to enable early diagnosis and appropriate management.

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

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this case/non-case study was to detect rebamipide-related pulmonary adverse events (AE) compared with other drugs for acid-related disorders based on population-level data. METHODS From 2009 to 2018, AE reports on drugs for acid-related disorders, which are anatomical therapeutic chemical code A02B drugs, in the Korea Adverse Events Reporting System (KAERS) database were examined. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) was calculated, and the odds of reporting pulmonary AE for rebamipide and all other A02B drugs were compared. Furthermore, a stratified analysis according to patients' age and sex was conducted. RESULTS Altogether 13 (0.05%) and 157 (0.11%) cases of pulmonary AE were reported for rebamipide and all other A02B drugs, respectively. The risk of reporting pulmonary AE was significantly lower for rebamipide than for all other A02B drugs (ROR 0.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.28-0.87). The number of reports of pulmonary AE for rebamipide was significantly higher among patients aged ≥65 years than those aged <65 years (ROR 19.36, 95% CI 2.50-149.97). CONCLUSIONS Rebamipide was less often reported for pulmonary AE. However, healthcare professionals need to be aware of the risk of pulmonary AE in elderly patients.

Abstract
Protein kinase inhibitors experienced their advent in the 2000s. Their market introduction made it possible to constitute a class of targeted therapies administered orally. This name was chosen to mark a break with conventional chemotherapy drugs, but it is important to stress that these are multi-target drugs with complex affinity profiles. Adverse effects can be explained by direct interactions with their targets of interest, chosen for their indications (on-target) but also interactions with other targets (off-target). The adverse effect profiles of these drugs are therefore varied and it is possible to identify common profiles related to inhibitions of common targets. Identification of these targets has improved the global understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the onset of adverse drug reactions as well as of the related diseases, and makes it possible to predict the adverse effect profile of new protein kinase inhibitors based on their affinities. In this review, we describe the main adverse drug reactions associated with protein kinase inhibitors, their frequency and their plausible mechanisms of action.

Safety of Surgery after Neoadjuvant Targeted Therapies in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Narrative Review. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222212244.

Abstract
New drugs, including immune checkpoint inhibitors and targeted therapy, have changed the prognosis in a subset of patients with advanced lung cancer, and are now actively investigated in a number of trials with neoadjuvant and adjuvant regimens. However, no phase III randomized studies were published yet. The current narrative review proves that targeted therapies are safe in neoadjuvant approach. Unsurprisingly, administration of therapy is related to an acceptable toxicity profile. Severe adverse events’ rate that rarely compromises outcomes of patients with advanced lung cancer is not that commonly accepted in early lung cancer as it may lead to missing the chance of curative surgery. Among those complications, the most important factors that may limit the use of targeted therapies are severe respiratory adverse events precluding the resection occurring after treatment with some anaplastic lymphoma kinase and rarely after epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors. At this point, in the presented literature assessing the feasibility of neoadjuvant therapies with anaplastic lymphoma kinase and epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors, we did not find any unexpected intraoperative events that would be of special interest to a thoracic surgeon. Moreover, the postoperative course was associated with typical rate of complications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osimertinib is a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved as first-line therapy for advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Some osimertinib-related interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) were shown to be transient, called transient asymptomatic pulmonary opacities (TAPO)-clinically benign pulmonary opacities that resolve despite continued osimertinib treatment-and are not associated with the clinical manifestations of typical TKI-associated ILDs. METHODS In this multicentric study, we retrospectively analyzed 92 patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC treated with osimertinib. Computed tomography (CT) examinations were reviewed by two radiologists and TAPO were classified according to radiologic pattern. We also analyzed associations between TAPO and patients' clinical variables and compared clinical outcomes (time to treatment failure and overall survival) for TAPO-positive and TAPO-negative groups. RESULTS TAPO were found in 18/92 patients (19.6%), with a median follow-up of 114 weeks. Median onset time was 16 weeks (range 6-80) and median duration time 14 weeks (range 8-37). The most common radiologic pattern was focal ground-glass opacity (54.5%). We did not find any individual clinical variable significantly associated with the onset of TAPO or significant difference in clinical outcomes between TAPO-positive and TAPO-negative groups. CONCLUSIONS TAPO are benign pulmonary findings observed in patients treated with osimertinib. TAPO variability in terms of CT features can hinder the differential diagnosis with either osimertinib-related mild ILD or tumor progression. However, because TAPO are asymptomatic, it could be reasonable to continue therapy and verify the resolution of the CT findings at follow-up in selected cases.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease is recognized as a group of diseases with a different etiopathogenesis characterized by chronic lung inflammation with the accumulation of inflammatory cells, lymphocytes and macrophages, and the consequent release of proinflammatory cytokines. Various degrees of pulmonary fibrosis can be associated with this inflammatory condition. Interstitial lung disease related to oncological drugs is a relevant problem in clinical practice. The etiopathogenetic mechanisms underlying this adverse event are not completely known but can be partly explained by the mechanism of action of the drug involved. Therefore, knowledge of the relevance of this potentially fatal adverse event supported by the reported safety data of pivotal studies becomes fundamental in the management of patients. The prompt diagnosis of drug-related pneumonia and the consequent differential diagnosis with other forms of pneumonia allow a rapid suspension of treatment and the establishment of an immunosuppressive treatment if necessary. In the context of the health emergency related to SARS CoV2 infection and COVID-19-related interstitial lung disease, such knowledge holds decisive relevance in the conscious choice of cancer treatments. Our intent was to describe the oncological drugs most correlated with this adverse event by reporting, where possible, the percentages of insurgency in pivotal studies to provide an overview and therefore promote greater awareness of this important toxicity related to oncological treatment.

Abstract
A clinical trial in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) demonstrated that sulindac plus erlotinib (SUL+ERL) had good efficacy in the duodenum and colon, but toxicity issues raised concerns for long-term prevention. We performed a biomarker study in the polyposis in rat colon (Pirc) model, observing phosphorylated Erk inhibition in colon polyps for up to 10 days after discontinuing ERL+SUL administration. In a follow-up study lasting 16 weeks, significant reduction of colon and small intestine (SI) tumor burden was detected, especially in rats given 250 ppm SUL in the diet plus once-a-week intragastric dosing of ERL at 21 or 42 mg/kg body weight (BW). A long-term study further demonstrated antitumor efficacy in the colon and SI at 52 weeks, when 250 ppm SUL was combined with once-a-week intragastric administration of ERL at 10, 21, or 42 mg/kg BW. Tumor-associated matrix metalloproteinase-7 (Mmp7), tumor necrosis factor (Tnf), and early growth response 1 (Egr1) were decreased at 16 weeks by ERL+SUL, and this was sustained in the long-term study for Mmp7 and Tnf. Based on the collective results, the optimal dose combination of ERL 10 mg/kg BW plus 250 ppm SUL lacked toxicity, inhibited molecular biomarkers, and exhibited effective antitumor activity. We conclude that switching from continuous to once-per-week ERL, given at one-quarter of the current therapeutic dose, will exert good efficacy with standard-of-care SUL against adenomatous polyps in the colon and SI, with clinical relevance for patients with FAP before or after colectomy. PREVENTION RELEVANCE: This investigation concludes that switching from continuous to once-per-week erlotinib, given at one-quarter of the current therapeutic dose, will exert good efficacy with standard-of-care sulindac against adenomatous polyps in the colon and small intestine, with clinical relevance for patients with FAP before or after colectomy.

Abstract
Both crizotinib and osimertinib have been reported to have an adverse effect of interstitial pneumonitis in the treatment of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Here, we report the case of a 60‐year‐old male patient with advanced NSCLC resistant to osimertinib. Crizotinib was administered in combination with osimertinib due to elevated mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) copy number amplification. However, early‐onset interstitial pneumonitis occurred within two days.

Abstract
The sudden pandemic of SARS-Cov-2 (also known as novel coronavirus disease 2019, COVID-19) poses a severe threat to hundreds of millions of lives in the world. The complete cure of the virus largely relies on the immune system, which becomes particularly a challenge for the cancer subjects, whose immunity is generally compromised. However, in a constant evolving situation, the clinical data on the prevalence of SARS-Cov-2 for cancer patients is still limited. On top of a wide range of medical references and interim guidelines including CDC, NCI, ASCO, ESMO, NCCN, AACR, ESMO, and the National Health Commission of China, etc., we formed into a guideline based on our experience in our specialized cancer hospital in Wuhan, the originally endemic center of the virus. Furthermore, we formulated an expert consensus which was developed by all contributors from different disciplines after fully discussion based on our understanding and analysis of limited information of COVID-19. The consensus highlighted a multidisciplinary team diagnostic model with assessment of the balance between risks and benefits prior to treatment, individualizing satisfaction of patients' medical needs, and acceptability in ethics and patients' socio-economic conditions.

Abstract
Background To estimate the incidence and susceptible factors of fatal toxic effects related to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). Methods PubMed and Embase were thoroughly searched for clinical trials based on the following terms and corresponding Medical Subject Heading ones: “erlotinib”, “gefitinib”, “afatinib”, “dacomitinib”, “osimertinib”, and “non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)”. A total of 53 eligible cohorts with 9,569 participants were collected. Results A total of 105 cases of fatal toxic effects related to EGFR-TKIs occurred in 53 cohorts. The overall incidence was 1.33% [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.08–1.63%]. The odds and incidence were apparently higher in Japanese group (compared with non-East Asian group) [2.72 vs. 1.30, P=0.015; odds ratio (OR): 2.26, 95% CI: 1.17–4.37, P=0.015], in first-line treatment group (compared with EGFR-TKI retreatment group) (1.54 vs. 0.69, P=0.028; OR: 2.41, 95% CI: 1.10–5.26, P=0.028), and in the trial phase II (compared with trial phase III) (1.82% vs. 1.11%, P=0.009; OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.15–2.62, P=0.009). Notably, the Japanese group was higher than non-East Asian group after controlling for the treatment-line and trial phase (OR: 2.16, 95% CI: 1.12–4.16, P=0.022). Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was predominant in 29 fatal causes followed by pneumonia, respiratory failure and diarrhea. Conclusions The overall incidence of fatal toxic effects related to EGFR-TKIs was 1.33%, and the major fatal cause was ILD, followed by pneumonia, respiratory failure and diarrhea. The susceptible factor of fatal toxic effects related to EGFR-TKIs was the Japanese group. This study provided a capability for clinicians to predict and detect high-risk populations of fatal toxic effects.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. As new therapies are developed, it is important to understand the pulmonary toxicities associated with systemic lung cancer therapies. Cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens for NSCLC often include taxanes. Pulmonary toxicity from taxanes presents as an ILD-type reaction characterized by increasing dyspnoea, dry cough, fever and bilateral pulmonary interstitial infiltrates. The incidence of taxane-induced pneumonitis is rare, and many patients respond to steroid therapy; however, fatal cases have been reported. Patients with NSCLC are routinely tested for the presence of tumour oncogenes to determine their candidacy for targeted therapies, such as TKI. EGFR-TKI can cause pneumonitis characterized by progressive dyspnoea and hypoxia. EGFR-TKI-associated ILD rarely presents as an AIP with rapidly progressive respiratory failure and high mortality rates. The most recent development in lung cancer therapy has been the discovery of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI). ICI pneumonitis has been increasingly recognized as a common complication of ICI therapy, with reported incidence as high as 19% in some clinical settings. Early-grade ICI pneumonitis may be asymptomatic; however, high-grade ICI pneumonitis can result in progressive dyspnoea, hypoxia and respiratory failure. ICI pneumonitis is unique in that only half of the patients will improve with steroid treatment, and mortality rates are high. As treatment of NSCLC evolves, providers must be able to recognize and respond to the development of drug-induced pulmonary toxicities.

Transient Asymptomatic Pulmonary Opacities During Osimertinib Treatment and its Clinical Implication. J Thorac Oncol 2019; 13:1106-1112.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osimertinib is an oral, potent, irreversible third-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of T790M-positive NSCLC patients who failed first- or second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a rare complication with osimertinib, occurring in 1% to 3% of patients. Recently, a relatively high incidence of transient asymptomatic pulmonary opacities (TAPOs), which are different from ILD, has been described. However, its clinical implication has not been fully determined yet. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 74 EGFR T790M mutant NSCLC patients treated with osimertinib. Serial computed tomographic findings were reviewed by a thoracic radiologist independently, and TAPO was classified according to its radiologic pattern. We also analyzed the correlation of TAPO with clinical outcomes. RESULTS Among 74 patients, TAPOs were found in 15 (20.3%). The median time to TAPO development was 24.0 weeks (range, 1 to 72 weeks) and the median duration of TAPO was 6.0 weeks (range, 5 to 24 weeks) during continued osimertinib treatment. The most common radiological patterns of TAPO include cryptogenic organizing pneumonia and/or simple eosinophilic pneumonia. There was no significant difference in patient characteristics between TAPO-positive and -negative groups. The duration of exposure to osimertinib was significantly longer in TAPO-positive than -negative groups (25.0 months versus 13.0 months, p = 0.009). The median progression-free survival and the median overall survival was numerically longer in TAPO-positive than -negative groups (22 months versus 15 months for progression-free survival, p = 0.293; 37 months versus 24 months for overall survival, p = 0.059), respectively. CONCLUSIONS TAPOs are frequently observed with osimertinib treatment and may be mistaken for isolated pulmonary progression or drug-induced ILD. Given the lack of serious clinical deterioration, it is reasonable to continue osimertinib with regular computed tomographic-scan follow-up. For further clinical validation of TAPOs, long-term follow-up and large studies are warranted.

Abstract
Importance Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) are at markedly increased risk for colorectal polyps and cancer. A combination of sulindac and erlotinib led to a 71% reduction in duodenal polyp burden in a phase 2 trial. Objective To evaluate effect of sulindac and erlotinib on colorectal adenoma regression in patients with FAP. Design, Setting, and Participants Prespecified secondary analysis for colorectal adenoma regression was carried out using data from a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, enrolling 92 patients with FAP, conducted from July 2010 to June 2014 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Interventions Patients were randomized to sulindac, 150 mg twice daily, and erlotinib, 75 mg daily (n = 46), vs placebo (n = 46) for 6 months. Main Outcomes and Measurements The total number of polyps in the intact colorectum, ileal pouch anal anastomosis, or ileo-rectum were recorded at baseline and 6 months. The primary outcomes were change in total colorectal polyp count and percentage change in colorectal polyps, following 6 months of treatment. Results Eighty-two randomized patients (mean [SD] age, 40 [13] years; 49 [60%] women) had colorectal polyp count data available for this secondary analysis: 22 with intact colon, 44 with ileal pouch anal anastomosis and 16 with ileo-rectal anastomosis; 41 patients received sulindac/erlotinib and 41 placebo. The total colorectal polyp count was significantly different between the placebo and sulindac-erlotinib group at 6 months in patients with net percentage change of 69.4% in those with an intact colorectum compared with placebo (95% CI, 28.8%-109.2%; P = .009). Conclusion and Relevance In this double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial we showed that combination treatment with sulindac and erlotinib compared with placebo resulted in significantly lower colorectal polyp burden after 6 months of treatment. There was a reduction in polyp burden in both those with an entire colorectum and those with only a rectal pouch or rectum. Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT01187901.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preclinical in vitro experiments demonstrated that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) might have synergistic effect in combination with radiotherapy on Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the clinical trials showed inconsistence results in NSCLC patients with EGFR status unknow or mutations. This study aimed to determine if added TKIs to Thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) improve primary disease response rate (RR) and survival outcomes in advanced or metastatic NSCLC. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library from January 2000 to December 2017 for eligible studies where patients received concurrent EGFR TKIs and TRT or CRT. Concerned outcomes were primary tumor RR, overall survival (OS), and adverse events (AEs). The meta-analysis was performed using Stata software (version 12.0). Random effects models were used to pool outcomes across studies. Sensitivity analysis was performed to determine if the results would be different. RESULTS We found 16 prospective clinical trials with mature results for meta-analyses. Twelve studies including 446 patients reported the RR and survival outcomes of TRT combined TKIs. The CR, PR, SD, and PD, respectively, were 0.06 (95% CI 0.03-0.09, I = 0%), 0.44 (95% CI 0.38-0.49, I = 64.9%), 0.29 (95% CI 0.24-0.34, I = 78.4%), and 0.15 (95% CI 0.11-0.19, I = 84.2%). One- and 2-year OS, respectively, were 0.52 (95% CI 0.44-0.60, I = 38.8%) and 0.26 (95% CI 0.18-0.33, I = 0%). Four studies including 182 patients reported the RR and survival outcomes of CRT combined TKIs. The pooled CR, PR, SD, and PD, respectively, were 0.12 (95% CI 0.02-0.22, I = 69.1%), 0.41 (95% CI 0.27-0.55, I71.6%), 0.31 (95% CI 0.16-0.46, I = 79%), and 0.14 (95% CI -0.01-0.30, I = 87.8%). Only 1 study reported the survival event rate, 1- and 2-year OS, respectively, were 0.83 (95% CI 0.71-0.94) and 0.67 (95% CI 0.54-0.81). There were not severe adverse events (SAEs) reported either TRT combined TKIs or CRT combined TKIs. CONCLUSION There is evidence, albeit of low quality, that added the TKIs to TRT or CRT may improve RR and survival outcomes in patients with EGFR mutant status unknown advanced or metastatic NSCLC relative to other studies of TKIs alone, TRT alone or CRT.

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

Pneumonitis in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor: Meta-analysis of 153 cohorts with 15,713 patients: Meta-analysis of incidence and risk factors of EGFR-TKI pneumonitis in NSCLC. Lung Cancer 2018; 123:60-69. [PMID: 30089596 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2018.06.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2018] [Revised: 06/27/2018] [Accepted: 06/30/2018] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Pneumonitis is a significant toxicity of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. We studied the incidence of pneumonitis in clinical trials of EGFR-TKI published in 2003-2017, and performed subgroups analyses to identity predisposing factors. METHODS Ovid-MEDLINE and EMBASE search up to 4/17/17 using the keywords, "erlotinib", "gefitinib", "afatinib", "osimertinib", and "lung cancer", resulted in a total of 153 eligible trial cohorts with 15,713 advanced NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKI. The pooled incidence of all-grade, high-grade, and grade 5 pneumonitis was obtained. Subgroup analyses were performed with meta-regression using study-level covariates. RESULTS Among the patients without prior exposure to EGFR-TKI, the overall incidence was 1.12% (95% CI:0.79-1.58%) for all-grade, 0.61% (95% CI:0.40-0.93%) for high-grade, and 0.20% (95% CI:0.11-0.38%) for grade 5 pneumonitis. The incidence was significantly higher in Japanese studies compared to studies of non-Japan origin, for all-grade (4.77% vs. 0.55%, p < 0.001), high grade (2.49% vs. 0.37%, p < 0.001), and grade 5 pneumonitis (1.00% vs. 0.18%, p < 0.001). Multivariate analyses demonstrated higher odds of pneumonitis in Japanese studies for all-grade (odds ratio [OR]: 5.04; 95% CI:3.14-8.11, p < 0.001), high-grade (OR: 4.45; 95% CI:2.50-7.93, p < 0.001), and grade 5 pneumonitis (OR: 4.55; 95% CI:2.20-9.44, p < 0.001) compared to others, after adjusting for types of EGFR-TKI and lines of therapy. In patients with EGFR retreatment analyzed separately, the pooled incidence was 1.13% (95% CI:0.40-3.15%) for all-grade, 0.49% (95% CI:0.21-1.11%) for high-grade, and 0.16% (95% CI:0.04-0.65%) for grade 5 pneumonitis. CONCLUSIONS The overall incidence of EGFR-TKI pneumonitis was 1.12% in patients without prior exposure to EGFR-TKI, and 1.13% in EGFR-TKI retreatment group. The cohorts from Japan had significantly higher incidence of pneumonitis, providing insights for further mechanistic studies.

Abstract
The first-line treatment for advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) includes the use of afatinib and other EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). While generally well tolerated, a small subset of patients will develop drug-induced interstitial lung disease (ILD) which could lead to drug discontinuation or even death. A 58-year-old female with stage IV NSCLC treated with afatinib presented with dyspnea and rapidly progressive hypoxemia. Imaging of the lungs demonstrated ground glass opacities. Infectious workup was unrevealing, and since drug-induced ILD was suspected early on presentation, high dose corticosteroids were initiated leading to clinical improvement. While the incidence of afatinib-induced ILD is rare, the consequences may be serious and potentially fatal. The presentation is often non-specific and may mimic other common respiratory pathologies making the diagnosis challenging. If therapeutic measures such as corticosteroids are initiated promptly, they can be life-saving.

Abstract
Currently, the overall incidence and risk of infections with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients remained undetermined. We searched Pubmed for related articles published from 1 January 1990 to 31 November 2015. Eligible studies included prospective randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating therapy with or without EGFR-TKIs in patients with NSCLC. Data on infections were extracted. Pooled incidence, Peto odds ratio (Peto OR), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. A total of 17,420 patients from 25 RCTs were included. The use of EGFR-TKIs significantly increased the risk of developing all-grade infections (Peto OR 1.48, 95%CI: 1.12-1.96, p = 0.006) in NSCLC patients, but not for severe (Peto OR 1.26, 95%CI: 0.96-1.67, p = 0.098) and fatal infections (Peto OR 0.81, 95%CI: 0.43-1.53, p = 0.52). Meta-regression indicated the risk of infections tended to increase with the treatment duration of EGFR-TKIs. No publication of bias was detected. In conclusion, the use of EGFR-TKIs significantly increased the risk of developing all-grade infectious events in NSCLC patients, but not for severe and fatal infections. Clinicians should be aware of the risks of infections with the administration of these drugs in these patients.

Abstract
Since the approval of the first molecularly targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), imatinib, in 2001, TKIs have heralded a new era in the treatment of many cancers. Among their innumerable adverse effects, interstitial lung disease (ILD) is one of the most serious, presenting most frequently with dyspnea, cough, fever, and hypoxemia, and often treated with steroids. Of the 28 currently approved TKIs, 16 (57 %) are reported to induce ILD with varying frequency and/or severity. The interval from drug administration to onset of ILD varies between patients and between TKIs, with no predictable time course. Its incidence is variously reported to be approximately 1.6-4.3 % in Japanese populations and 0.3-1.0 % in non-Japanese populations. The mortality rate is in the range of 20-50 %. Available evidence (primarily following the use of erlotinib and gefitinib in Japan because of the unique susceptibility of that population) has identified a number of susceptibility and prognostic risk factors (male sex, a history of smoking, and pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis being the main ones). Although the precise mechanism is not understood, collective evidence suggests that immune factors may be involved. If TKI-induced ILD is confirmed by thorough evaluation of the patient and exclusion of other causes, management is supportive, and includes discontinuation of the culprit TKI and administration of steroids. Discontinuing the culprit TKI presents a clinical dilemma because the diagnosis of TKI-induced ILD in a patient with pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis can be challenging, the patient may have TKI-responsive cancer with no suitable alternative, and switching to an alternative agent, even if available, carries the risk of the patient experiencing other toxic effects. Preliminary evidence suggests that therapy with the culprit TKI may be continued under steroid cover and/or at a reduced dose. However, this approach requires careful individualized risk-benefit analysis and further clinical experience.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the overall incidence and risk of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and QTc prolongation associated with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (-TKIs) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. RESULTS A total of 1,770 patients from 8 clinical trials were included. The incidences of high-grade ILD and QTc prolongation was 2.5% (95% CI 1.7-3.6%), and 2.8% (95% CI 1.8-4.3%), respectively. Meta-analysis demonstrated that the use of ALK-TKIs in NSCLC patients significantly increased the risk of developing high-grade ILD (Peto OR, 3.27, 95%CI: 1.18-9.08, p = 0.023) and QTc prolongation (Peto OR 7.51, 95% CI, 2.16-26.15; p = 0.002) in comparison with chemotherapy alone. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic literature search was performed to identify related citations up to January 31, 2017. Data were extracted, and summary incidence rates, Peto odds ratios (Peto ORs), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. CONCLUSIONS The use of ALK-TKIs significantly increases the risk of developing high-grade ILD and QTc prolongation in lung cancer patients. Clinicians should pay attention to the risks of severe ILD and QTc prolongation with the administration of these drugs.

Incorporating Erlotinib or Irinotecan Plus Cisplatin into Chemoradiotherapy for Stage III Non-small Cell Lung Cancer According to EGFR Mutation Status. Cancer Res Treat 2017; 49:981-989. [PMID: 28111430 PMCID: PMC5654157 DOI: 10.4143/crt.2016.522] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2016] [Accepted: 12/27/2016] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) is the standard care for stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients; however, a more effective regimen is needed to improve the outcome by better controlling occult metastases. We conducted two parallel randomized phase II studies to incorporate erlotinib or irinotecan-cisplatin (IP) into CCRT for stage III NSCLC depending on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status. Materials and Methods Patients with EGFR-mutant tumors were randomized to receive three cycles of erlotinib first and then either CCRT with erlotinib followed by erlotinib (arm A) or CCRT with IP only (arm B). Patients with EGFR unknown or wild-type tumors were randomized to receive either three cycles of IP before (arm C) or after CCRT with IP (arm D). Results Seventy-three patients were screened and the study was closed early because of slow accrual after 59 patients were randomized. Overall, there were seven patients in arm A, five in arm B, 22 in arm C, and 25 in arm D. The response rate was 71.4% and 80.0% for arm A and B, and 70.0% and 73.9% for arm C and D. The median overall survival (OS) was 39.3 months versus 31.2 months for arm A and B (p=0.442), and 16.3 months versus 25.3 months for arm C and D (p=0.050). Patients with sensitive EGFR mutations had significantly longer OS than EGFR-wild patients (74.8 months vs. 25.3 months, p=0.034). There were no unexpected toxicities. Conclusion Combined-modality treatment by molecular diagnostics is feasible in stage III NSCLC. EGFR-mutant patients appear to be a distinct subset with longer survival.

Abstract
Although pneumothorax has been reported to be a major pulmonary adverse event in patients treated with pazopanib, a multikinase inhibitor, drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DILD) has not been reported. A 74-year-old Japanese man who received pazopanib for the treatment of femoral leiomyosarcoma and lung metastasis presented with dyspnea and fatigue. He had mild interstitial pneumonia when pazopanib treatment was initiated. Chest computed tomography revealed progressive bilateral ground-glass opacity (GGO) and traction bronchiectasis. We diagnosed DILD due to pazopanib. The patient's pazopanib treatment was interrupted and a steroid was administered. The symptoms and GGO were improved with treatment. Physicians should be aware of DILD due to pazopanib in patients with pre-existing interstitial lung disease.

Abstract
Afatinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that inhibit Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR), Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2), and HER4. The common side effects of EGFR TKI are rash, acne, diarrhea, stomatitis, pruritus, nausea, and loss of appetite. Drug induced pneumonitis is the less common adverse effects of EGFR TKI. Afatinib, 2nd generation EGFR TKI is anticipated to overcome drug resistance from 1st generation EGFR TKI according to preclinical study, and several studies are being conducted to compare clinical efficacy between 1st and 2nd EGFR TKI. Several cases of rug induced acute fatal pneumonitis were reported after use of erlotinib or gefitinib. However, a case of acute fatal pneumonitis associated with afatinib was note reported except drug induced pneumonitis in other clinical study. Here, we present a cases of acute severe pneumonitis related with afatinib in metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with literature review.

A Phase I Study of the Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Higher-Dose Icotinib in Patients With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Oncologist 2016; 21:1294-1295d. [PMID: 27789778 PMCID: PMC5189627 DOI: 10.1634/theoncologist.2016-0256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2016] [Accepted: 08/15/2016] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
LESSONS LEARNED This phase I study evaluated the maximum tolerated dose, dose-limiting toxicities, safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of icotinib with a starting dose of 250 mg in pretreated, advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients. We observed a maximum tolerated dose of 500 mg with a favorable pharmacokinetics profile and antitumor activity.These findings provide clinicians with evidence for application of higher-dose icotinib. BACKGROUND Icotinib, an oral epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has shown favorable tolerability and antitumor activity at 100-200 mg in previous studies without reaching the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In July 2011, icotinib was approved by the China Food and Drug Administration at a dose of 125 mg three times daily for the treatment of patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after failure of at least one platinum-based chemotherapy regimen. This study investigated the MTD, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of higher-dose icotinib in patients with advanced NSCLC. METHODS Twenty-six patients with advanced NSCLC were treated at doses of 250-625 mg three times daily The EGFR mutation test was not mandatory in this study. RESULTS Twenty-four (92.3%) of 26 patients experienced at least one adverse event (AE); rash (61.5%), diarrhea (23.1%), and oral ulceration (11.5%) were most frequent AEs. Dose-limiting toxicities were seen in 2 of 6 patients in the 625-mg group, and the MTD was established at 500 mg. Icotinib was rapidly absorbed and eliminated. The amount of time that the drug was present at the maximum concentration in serum (Tmax) ranged from 1 to 3 hours (1.5-4 hours) after multiple doses. The t1/2 was similar after single- and multiple-dose administration (7.11 and 6.39 hours, respectively). A nonlinear relationship was observed between dose and drug exposure. Responses were seen in 6 (23.1%) patients, and 8 (30.8%) patients had stable disease. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that higher-dose icotinib was well-tolerated, with a MTD of 500 mg. Favorable antitumor activity and pharmacokinetic profile were observed in patients with heavily pretreated, advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) are at markedly increased risk for duodenal polyps and cancer. Surgical and endoscopic management of duodenal neoplasia is difficult and chemoprevention has not been successful. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of a combination of sulindac and erlotinib on duodenal adenoma regression in patients with FAP. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, enrolling 92 participants with FAP, conducted from July 2010 through June 2014 at Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, Utah. INTERVENTIONS Participants with FAP were randomized to sulindac (150 mg) twice daily and erlotinib (75 mg) daily (n = 46) vs placebo (n = 46) for 6 months. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The total number and diameter of polyps in the proximal duodenum were mapped at baseline and 6 months. The primary outcome was change in total polyp burden at 6 months. Polyp burden was calculated as the sum of the diameters of polyps. The secondary outcomes were change in total duodenal polyp count, change in duodenal polyp burden or count stratified by genotype and initial polyp burden, and percentage of change from baseline in duodenal polyp burden. RESULTS Ninety-two participants (mean age, 41 years [range, 24-55]; women, 56 [61%]) were randomized when the trial was stopped by the external data and safety monitoring board because the second preplanned interim analysis met the prespecified stopping rule for superiority. Grade 1 and 2 adverse events were more common in the sulindac-erlotinib group, with an acne-like rash observed in 87% of participants receiving treatment and 20% of participants receiving placebo (P < .001). Only 2 participants experienced grade 3 adverse events. [table: see text]. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Among participants with FAP, the use of sulindac and erlotinib compared with placebo resulted in a lower duodenal polyp burden after 6 months. Adverse events may limit the use of these medications at the doses used in this study. Further research is necessary to evaluate these preliminary findings in a larger study population with longer follow-up to determine whether the observed effects will result in improved clinical outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT 01187901.

Abstract
We performed a meta-analysis of fatal pulmonary events associated with erlotinib, gefitinib or afatinib in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Eligible studies included randomized trials of patients with NSCLC on the three drugs describing events of high-grade pulmonary events. The relative risk of high-grade interstitial lung disease, pneumonitis, pneumonia, pulmonary embolism and hemoptysis were 4.18 (95% CI: 2.49-7.01; p < 0.00001), 1.94 (95% CI: 0.93-4.06; p = 0.08), 1.28 (95% CI: 0.92-1.77; p = 0.14), 1.6 (95% CI: 0.81-3.18 p = 0.17), 1.00 (95% CI: 0.14-7.08 p = 0.35), respectively. Our meta-analysis has demonstrated that erlotinib, gefitinib and afatinib are associated with an increased risk of high-grade interstitial lung disease in patients with NSCLC.

Abstract
Molecularly targeted cancer therapies, such as small-molecule kinase inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies, constitute a rapidly growing and an important part of the oncology armamentarium. Unlike conventional (cytotoxic) chemotherapeutics, targeted therapies were designed to disrupt cancer cell pathogenesis at specific biological points essential for the development and progression of the tumour. These agents were developed to disrupt specific targets with the aim of minimizing treatment burden compared with conventional chemotherapy. Nevertheless the increasingly common use of targeted therapies has revealed some unanticipated, often clinically significant toxic effects, as well as compromising effective palliative and end-of-life management approaches. Although patients and clinicians welcome improvements in cancer prognosis, these changes can also impact patient quality-of-life. Therefore, as demand for oncology expertise increases, physicians need to apprise themselves of targeted therapies and their clinical implications, including drug-specific side effects, impact on quality of life, and cost issues, especially in relation to end-of-life care. This Review provides a useful summary and guide for professionals treating patients with malignant diseases.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are a critical member of systemic therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Erlotinib is the first-generation EGFR-TKIs, the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines recommend it as a first-line agent in patients with sensitizing EGFR mutations. However, the safety of erlotinib plus chemotherapy (CT) or erlotinib alone for advanced NSCLC remains controversial. We carried out a systematic meta-analysis to determine the overall risk of neutropenia and leukopenia associated with erlotinib. PubMed, EMBASE, CBM, CNKI, WanFang database, The Cochrane library, Web of Science, as well as abstracts presented at ASCO conferences and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched to identify relevant studies. RR with 95% CIs for neutropenia and leukopenia were all extracted. The random-effects model was used to calculate pooled RRs and 95% CIs. Power calculation was performed using macro embedded in SAS software after all syntheses were conducted. We identified 12 eligible studies involving 3932 patients. Erlotinib plus CT or alone relative to CT is associated with significantly decreased risks of neutropenia and leukopenia in patients with advanced NSCLC (RR, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.21-0.71; P = 0.00; incidence: 9.9 vs. 35.2%) and (RR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.11-0.93; P = 0.04; incidence: 3.5 vs. 11.6%), respectively. The subgroup analysis by erlotinib with or without CT showed that erlotinib combine with CT have no significance decrease the relative risks of neutropenia or leukopenia (RR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.78-1.23; P = 0.87; incidence: 26.2 vs. 30.5%) and (RR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.34-1.95; P = 0.64; incidence: 6.5 vs. 9.3%), respectively. However, erlotinib alone could decrease incidence of neutropenia (RR, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.07-0.27; P = 0.00; incidence: 3.7 vs. 40.8%) or leukopenia (RR, 0.07; 95% CI, 0.01-0.45; P = 0.01; incidence: 0.8 vs. 15.7%). The power analysis suggests that a power of 61.31% was determined to detect an RR of 0.38 for neutropenia, and 78.03% for an RR of 0.32 for leukopenia. The present meta-analysis suggested that erlotinib could decrease the incidence of neutropenia and leukopenia in patients with advanced NSCLC undergoing erlotinib regardless of whether combined with CT or not. The subgroup analysis revealed that erlotinib combine with CT did not affect the incidence; however, erlotinib alone could significantly decrease the incidence of neutropenia and leukopenia compared with CT alone.

Abstract
The presence of activating mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-gene identifies a distinct and clinically relevant molecular subset of non-small-cell lung cancer. It is now well demonstrated that EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) gefitinib and erlotinib are superior to standard chemotherapy in this subset of tumors. Nevertheless, in many cases, responses are not durable and last for 6–12 months due to the occurrence of secondary or acquired resistance. Here we present three cases of EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas (ADC), that showed an unexpected response to anti-EGFR small molecules. The first patient presented a continued 89 month-long response to erlotinib in a tumor recurred after surgery and conventional chemotherapy. In the other cases, subclinically persistent tumor in the lung tissue was documented histologically in lung resections performed after partial response to TKI treatment. The persistence of interstitial and endolymphatic tumor cells after TKI treatment might explain the common observation of tumor relapse after TKI discontinuation, and sustain the decision to continue treatment in responsive patients as in our first case.
