J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:278. [PMID: 38711077 PMCID: PMC11075297 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02751-6] [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: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrapleural perfusion with hyperthermic chemotherapy (IPHC) in treating malignant pleural effusion (MPE). METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), VIP Chinese Science and Technology Journal Full-text Database (VP-CSJFD), and Wanfang database were searched by computer from database establishment to January 17, 2024. Relevant randomized controlled articles with IPHC as the observational group and intrapleural perfusion chemotherapy (IPC) as the control group for MPE were included. Then, the methodological quality of the included articles was evaluated and statistically analyzed using Stata 16.0. RESULTS Sixteen trials with 647 patients receiving IPHC and 661 patients receiving IPC were included. The meta-analysis found that MPE patients in the IPHC group had a more significant objective response rate [RR = 1.31, 95%CI (1.23, 1.38), P < 0.05] and life quality improvement rate [RR = 2.88, 95%CI (1.95, 4.24), P < 0.05] than those in the IPC group. IPHC and IPC for MPE patients had similar incidence rates of asthenia, thrombocytopenia, hepatic impairment, and leukopenia. CONCLUSION Compared with IPC, IPHC has a higher objective response rate without significantly increasing adverse reactions. Therefore, IPHC is effective and safe. However, this study is limited by the quality of the literature. Therefore, more high-quality, multi-center, large-sample, rigorously designed randomized controlled clinical studies are still needed for verification and evaluation.

Abstract
The safety and efficacy of hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) as an adjunct to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in pleural malignancies has been well demonstrated. This is most often described in cases of mesothelioma, thymoma, or other secondary pleural metastases. The utilization of a direct cytotoxic agent with increased penetration secondary to a hyperthermic environment is especially beneficial in pleural malignancy as a microscopic resection remains immensely challenging. Despite favorable outcomes with a limited associated risk profile, there persists a variety in utilization and technique of HITHOC described in current literature. National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines state that though intraoperative adjuvant therapies such as HITHOC have been studied, they remain of unclear benefit and definitive recommendations do not currently exist. This ambiguity limits the standardization of HITHOC, thus hindering its further application in a patient population with exceedingly poor outcomes within current guideline-based therapy. As the prevalence of pleural malignancies necessitating CRS with adjuvant HITHOC remains quite low, we believe a task force initiative to further investigate the role of HITHOC in surgical management of pleural malignancies would enable wider utility of this promising technique. Additionally, we propose that the creation of a pleural cancer index could aid in standardization of HITHOC in those with pleural malignancy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pleural metastasis has extremely poor prognosis. Resection of pleural implants with infusion of intrathoracic hyperthermic chemotherapy may offer a survival advantage in selected patients. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of hyperthermic intrathoracic extracorporeal chemotherapy (HITEC) in patients who underwent pleurectomy/decortication (P/D) for secondary malignant pleural disease (SPD). METHODS A total of 101 patients were evaluated over 72 months, with 35 patients electing to proceed with P/D and 60 minutes of HITEC with cisplatin at 42°C. Inclusion criteria were adults 18-79 years with unilateral pleural dissemination. Exclusion criteria were patients without control of primary site, extrathoracic metastatic disease, significant comorbidities, and a history of adverse reaction to cisplatin. RESULTS Median age was 56 years (36-73); 60% were women. SPD was thymoma in 13, breast cancer in 9, lung cancer in 6, colon cancer in 2, renal cell in 2, and esophageal, anal, and thymic cancers in one each. There was no operative mortality. Postoperative complications occurred in 18 patients (51%). No patient developed renal failure. Median follow-up was 24 months (4-60). The overall survival rate was 61%; 17 patients (49%) developed recurrent disease at a median of 12 months (6-36). There were no recurrences after 36 months Eleven patients (31%) died of metastatic disease at a median of 17 months (7-25). CONCLUSIONS Surgical cytoreduction of SPD followed by HITEC with cisplatin was well tolerated. No patient developed cisplatin-related toxicities. Long-term follow-up is warranted to determine survival advantage and refinement of inclusion criteria.

Abstract
Malignant pleural diseases involves both primary pleural malignancies (e.g., mesothelioma) as well as metastatic disease involving the pleura. The management of primary pleural malignancies remains a challenge, given their limited response to conventional treatments such as surgery, systemic chemotherapy, and immunotherapy. In this article, we aimed to review the management of primary pleural malignancy as well as malignant pleural effusion and assess the current state of intrapleural anticancer therapies. We review the role intrapleural chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and immunogene therapy, as well as oncolytic viral, therapy and intrapleural drug device combination. We further discuss that while the pleural space offers a unique opportunity for local therapy as an adjuvant option to systemic therapy and may help decrease some of the systemic side effects, further patient outcome-oriented research is needed to determine the exact role of these treatments within the armamentarium of currently available options.

Association between clinical outcomes and local treatment in stage IV non-small cell lung cancer patients with single extrathoracic metastasis. Thorac Cancer 2022; 13:1349-1360. [PMID: 35355417 PMCID: PMC9058316 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.14398] [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: 12/13/2021] [Revised: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Local treatment (LT) such as radiotherapy and metastasectomy on metastatic sites may improve outcomes in oligometastatic NSCLC patients, but more data are necessary to support LT in oligometastatic diseases. Patients with single extrathoracic metastatic lesion are more likely to benefit from local therapy. In this study, we evaluated the impact of LT in NSCLC patients with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion. Methods Data were obtained from the Korean Association for Lung Cancer Registry (KALC‐R), a database created using a retrospective sampling survey by the Korean Central Cancer Registry (KCCR) and the Lung Cancer Registration Committee. Results A total of 787 NSCLC patients with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion were evaluated. In the multivariate analysis for OS, age, female sex, poor performance score, squamous histological subtype, LT, and initial treatment modality showed significant associations. Regarding LT, groups that underwent curative LT were significantly associated with better OS compared to groups that did not undergo LT (p = 0.011, HR 0.448, 95% CI: 0.242–0.829). In the multivariate analysis of patients who underwent LT, poor performance score, initial treatment modality, and T stage were independently associated with poor OS. Compared to the T1 stage, T3 stage showed an HR of 2.470 (95% CI: 1.309–4.663; p = 0.005) and T4 stage showed an HR of 2.063 (95% CI: 1.093–3.904; p = 0.026). Conclusion In NSCLC with a single extrathoracic metastatic lesion, LT, especially for curative purposes, has an independent association with OS. Moreover, among the patients who received LT, factors such as T stage, poor performance score, and initial treatment modality were significantly associated with OS.
