[PMID: 38956553 PMCID: PMC11218090 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-024-03124-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) has evolved in recent years, benefiting from advances in immunotherapy and targeted therapy. However, limited biomarkers exist to assist clinicians and patients in selecting the most effective, personalized treatment strategies. Targeted next-generation sequencing-based genomic profiling has become routine in cancer treatment and generated crucial clinicogenomic data over the last decade. This has made the development of mutational biomarkers for drug response possible. METHODS To investigate the association between a patient's responses to a specific somatic mutation treatment, we analyzed the NSCLC GENIE BPC cohort, which includes 2,004 tumor samples from 1,846 patients. RESULTS We identified somatic mutation signatures associated with response to immunotherapy and chemotherapy, including carboplatin-, cisplatin-, pemetrexed- or docetaxel-based chemotherapy. The prediction power of the chemotherapy-associated signature was significantly affected by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status. Therefore, we developed an EGFR wild-type-specific mutation signature for chemotherapy selection. CONCLUSION Our treatment-specific gene signatures will assist clinicians and patients in selecting from multiple treatment options.

Real-world evaluation of health-related quality of life in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma based on a multinational survey. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1402992. [PMID: 38978741 PMCID: PMC11228594 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1402992] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Real-world health-related quality of life (HRQoL) data in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are scarce. This study is to compare patient-reported outcomes in patients with DLBCL across therapy lines and countries. Methods Data were derived from the Adelphi DLBCL Disease Specific Programme™ from January 2021 to May 2021, a survey of physicians and their DLBCL patients in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom (UK), and the United States (US). Results Overall, analysis was conducted on 441 patients with DLBCL across Europe and the US (mean age 64.6 years, 64% male); 68% had an Ann Arbor stage III and 69% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status of 0 to 1. The mean overall GHS/QoL was 54.1; patients on their 3L+ therapy had a lower mean GHS/QoL compared with patients on 1L/2L (P = 0.0033). Further to this, mean EQ-5D-5L utility score was reduced from 0.73 for patients on 1L therapy to 0.66 for patients on 3L+ therapies (P = 0.0149). Mean percentages of impairment while working and overall work impairment were lower for patients receiving 3L+ therapy (12.5% and 17.7%; respectively) than those on 1L therapy (35.6% and 33.8%; respectively). When comparing region, patients in the US had significantly better scores for all functioning and symptomatic scales (per EORTC QLQ-C30) and work impairment (per WPAI) vs. patients with DLBCL in Europe. WPAI scores indicate that the overall activity impairment in the US was 36.6% and in Europe ranged from 42.4% in the UK to 54.9% in Germany. Mean EQ-5D-5L utility score for the US was 0.80, compared to 0.60 - 0.80 across the countries in Europe. Regression analysis showed patients who relapsed after more than one year of treatment were associated with better patient reported outcomes than those who relapse after less than one year. Conclusion Patient-reported outcomes of DLBCL patients remain poor and patients continue to experience considerable morbidity.

Abstract
Patients with lung cancer under treatment have been associated with a high risk of COVID-19 infection and potentially worse outcome, but real-world data on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are rare. We assess patients' characteristics and PROs before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in an advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort in Germany. Patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC from the prospective, multicentre, observational CRISP Registry (NCT02622581) were categorised as pre-pandemic (March 2019 to Feb 2020, n = 1621) and pandemic (March 2020 to Feb 2021, n = 1317). From baseline to month 15, patients' health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was assessed by FACT-L, anxiety and depression by PHQ-4. Association of pandemic status with time to deterioration (TTD) in QoL scales adjusted for potential covariates was estimated using Cox modelling. PROs were documented for 1166 patients (72%) in the pre-pandemic, 979 (74%) in the pandemic group. Almost 60% of patients were male, median age was 66 years, comorbidities occurred in 85%. Regarding HRQoL, mean-change-from-baseline plots hardly differed between both samples. Approximately 15%-21% of patients reported anxiety, about 19%-27% signs of depression. For the pandemic group, TTD was slightly, but statistically significantly, worse for the physical well-being-FACT-G subscale (HR 1.15 [95%CI 1.02-1.30]) and the anxiety-GAD-2 subscale (HR 1.14 [95%CI 1.01-1.29]). These prospectively collected real-world data provide valuable insights into PROs before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in advanced NSCLC. For the patients, the pandemic seemed to be less of a burden than the disease itself, as there was a considerable proportion of patients with anxiety and depression in both groups.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains one of the major human malignancies affecting both men and women worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being the most prevalent type. Multiple mechanisms have been identified that favor tumor growth as well as impede the efficacy of therapeutic regimens in lung cancer patients. Among tumor suppressor genes that play critical roles in regulating cancer growth, the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) constitutes one of the important family members implicated in controlling various functional activities of tumor cells, including cell proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Notably, clinical studies have also documented that lung tumors having an impaired, mutated, or loss of PTEN are associated with low survival or high tumor recurrence rates. To that end, PTEN has been explored as a promising target for anti-cancer agents. Importantly, the ability of PTEN to crosstalk with several signaling pathways provides new approaches to devise effective treatment options for lung cancer treatment. The current review highlights the significance of PTEN and its implications in therapeutic approaches against NSCLC.
