Radiofrequency Ablation in Patients with Interstitial Lung Disease and Lung Neoplasm: A Retrospective Multicenter Study. J Vasc Interv Radiol 2024; 35:1305-1312. [PMID: 38908746 DOI: 10.1016/j.jvir.2024.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To retrospectively investigate the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous radiofrequency (RF) ablation by analyzing results in patients with lung neoplasm accompanied by interstitial lung disease (ILD) on computed tomography (CT) in a multicenter study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with lung neoplasm accompanied by ILD who underwent RF ablation between April 2002 and October 2017 at 7 institutions were investigated. Technical success rate and local tumor progression (LTP) of ablated tumors were evaluated. Adverse events including acute exacerbation of ILD were also evaluated. Univariate analyses were performed to identify factors associated with acute exacerbation. RESULTS Forty-nine patients with 64 lung neoplasms (mean diameter, 23 mm; range, 4-58 mm) treated in 66 sessions were included. Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern on CT was identified in 23 patients (47%). All patients underwent successful RF ablation. Acute exacerbations were seen in 5 sessions (8%, 7% with UIP pattern and 8% without) in 5 patients, all occurring on or after 8 days (median, 12 days; range, 8-30 days). Three of those 5 patients died of acute exacerbation. Treatment resulted in mortality after 5% of sessions, representing 6% of patients. Pleural effusion and fever (temperature ≥ 38°C) after RF ablation were identified by univariate analysis (P = .001 and P = .02, respectively) as significant risk factors for acute exacerbation. The cumulative LTP rate was 43% at 1 year. CONCLUSIONS RF ablation appears feasible for patients with lung neoplasm complicated by ILD. Acute exacerbation occurred in 8% of patients with symptoms occurring more than 8 days after ablation and was associated with a 45% mortality rate.

Int J Clin Oncol 2024:10.1007/s10147-024-02600-5. [PMID: 39180709 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-024-02600-5] [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: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The postoperative prognosis of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) and lung cancer is poor. Recently, the ILD-gender-age-physiology (GAP) index was identified as a clinical prognostic factor for patients with ILD. This study investigated the ILD-GAP index and oncological factors regarding postoperative outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 87 lung cancer patients with comorbid ILD who underwent curative resection at our institution between April 2005 and December 2019. Short-term postoperative outcomes and overall survival (OS) based on the ILD-GAP index were examined. OS rates after surgery were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method, and group differences were analyzed using the Log-Rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses for OS were performed using the Cox regression model. RESULTS Multivariate analyses revealed ILD-GAP index ≥ 4 [Hazard ratio, 3.349; 95% confidence interval 1.375-8.155; P = 0.008] as a factor associated with OS. In the ILD-GAP index ≥ 4 group, no deaths occurred from primary lung cancer, with respiratory-related deaths being the most common, and exacerbation of ILD was more frequent (P = 0.007). Regarding perioperative results, a significant difference was observed in 90-day mortality (2.7% vs. 23.0% [P = 0.022]), and more patients required home oxygen therapy (14.9% vs. 69.2% [P < 0.001]) in the ILD-GAP index ≥ 4 group. CONCLUSIONS An ILD-GAP index ≥ 4 indicated a poor prognostic factor for patients with surgically treated lung cancer. Careful consideration of surgical indications is essential for patients with an ILD-GAP index ≥ 4.

Abstract
Lung cancer continues to be one of the leading causes of cancer-related death worldwide. There is evidence of a complex interplay between lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD), affecting disease progression, management strategies, and patient outcomes. Both conditions develop as the result of common risk factors such as smoking, environmental exposures, and genetic predispositions. The presence of ILD poses diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in lung cancer management, including difficulties in interpreting radiological findings and increased susceptibility to treatment-related toxicities, such as acute exacerbation of ILD after surgery and pneumonitis after radiation therapy and immunotherapy. Moreover, due to the lack of large, phase III randomized controlled trials, the evidence-based therapeutic options for patients with ILDs and lung cancer remain limited. Antifibrotic treatment may help prevent pulmonary toxicity due to lung cancer treatment, but its effect is still unclear. Emerging diagnostic modalities and biomarkers and optimizing personalized treatment strategies are essential to improve outcomes in this patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We provide evidence-based recommendations regarding screening for interstitial lung disease (ILD) and the monitoring for ILD progression in people with systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases (SARDs), specifically rheumatoid arthritis, systemic sclerosis, idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, mixed connective tissue disease, and Sjögren disease. METHODS We developed clinically relevant population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes questions related to screening and monitoring for ILD in patients with SARDs. A systematic literature review was performed, and the available evidence was rated using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation methodology. A Voting Panel of interdisciplinary clinician experts and patients achieved consensus on the direction and strength of each recommendation. RESULTS Fifteen recommendations were developed. For screening people with these SARDs at risk for ILD, we conditionally recommend pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and high-resolution computed tomography of the chest (HRCT chest); conditionally recommend against screening with 6-minute walk test distance (6MWD), chest radiography, ambulatory desaturation testing, or bronchoscopy; and strongly recommend against screening with surgical lung biopsy. We conditionally recommend monitoring ILD with PFTs, HRCT chest, and ambulatory desaturation testing and conditionally recommend against monitoring with 6MWD, chest radiography, or bronchoscopy. We provide guidance on ILD risk factors and suggestions on frequency of testing to evaluate for the development of ILD in people with SARDs. CONCLUSION This clinical practice guideline presents the first recommendations endorsed by the American College of Rheumatology and American College of Chest Physicians for the screening and monitoring of ILD in people with SARDs.

Abstract
Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) presents a unique challenge in respiratory disorders, merging features of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Using the random forest algorithm, our study thoroughly examines the molecular details of CPFE. Analyzing gene expression datasets from GSE47460 (ILD: 254, COPD: 220, control: 108), we identify key genes namely ADRB2, CDH3, IRS2, MATN3, CD38, PDIA4, VEGFC, and among twenty others, crucial in airway regulation, lung function, and apoptosis, shaping the complex pathogenesis of CPFE. Additionally, miRNAs (hsa-mir-101-3p, hsa-mir-1343-3p, hsa-mir-27a-3p, and miR-16-5p) showcase regulatory impacts on CPFE-related molecular pathways. Our machine learning model unveils these intricate interactions, offering a comprehensive insight into CPFE's molecular mechanisms. This research not only pinpoints potential therapeutic targets and biomarkers but also opens avenues for innovative approaches in managing CPFE, linking ILD and COPD within this complex respiratory condition.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a known risk factor for lung cancer (LC). However, the surgical risk of LC in patients with ILD remains unclear. Therefore, we conducted a single-center retrospective study to assess clinical features and outcomes of LC population who underwent surgery with or without ILD. METHODS Patients who underwent surgery for LC between January 2006 and June 2023 in our center were assessed using data extracted from the nationwide EPITHOR thoracic surgery database. Suspicion of ILD was based on patients' records. Confirmation of ILD was then made on the patient's medical and radiological history. Patients were classified according to the pattern of ILD. The study aimed to describe the outcomes after lung cancer resection in patients with confirmed LC-ILD group compared to those without ILD (LC-non-ILD): post-operative complications, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). A subgroup analysis was also performed on patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and lung cancer (LC-IPF). RESULTS 4073 patients underwent surgery for LC at Assistance Publique des Hôpitaux de Marseille between January 2006 and June 2023. Of these, 4030 were in the LC-non-ILD group and 30 were LC-ILD patients. In the LC-ILD group, the predominant CT scan pattern was probable UIP (50 %). OS was not significantly lower in the LC-ILD group (45 months versus 84 months, p = 0.068). Dyspnea and tumor size were identified as potential univariate predictors of OS. No significant differences were observed on post-operative complications or their severity. The most common post-operative complications in the LC-ILD group were prolonged air leak, respiratory failure, or pneumonia. 13 patients had cancer recurrence in the LC-ILD group. CONCLUSION Our study provides a comprehensive analysis of a LC-ILD population features and outcome when undergoing surgery for LC. Patients with LC-ILD appeared to have a reduced OS compared with LC-non-ILD. Further investigations with larger prospective studies could be useful to confirm and develop these preliminary findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer (LC) screening using low-dose computed tomography (CT) is recommended according to standard risk criteria or personalized risk calculators. Machine learning (ML) models that can predict disease risk are an emerging method in medicine for identifying hidden associations that are personally unique. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using the tree-based pipeline optimization tool (TPOT), we developed an ML-based model, which is an ensemble of the Random Forest and XGboost models, based on known risk factors for LC, as part of a larger trial for ML prediction using electronic medical records and chest CT. We used data from patients with LC vs. controls (1:2) of patients aged ≥ 35 years. We developed a model for all LC patients as well as for patients with and without a smoking background. We included age, gender, body mass index (BMI), smoking history, socioeconomic status (SES), history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)/emphysema/chronic bronchitis (CB), interstitial lung disease (ILD)/pulmonary fibrosis (PF), and family history of LC. RESULTS Of the 4076 patients, 1428 (35 %) were in the LC group and 2648 (65 %) were in the control group. For the entire study population, our model achieved an accuracy of 71.2 %, with a sensitivity of 69 % and a positive predictive value (PPV) of 74 %. Higher accuracy was achieved for the two subgroups. An accuracy of 74.8 % (sensitivity 72 %, PPV 76 %) and 73.0 % (sensitivity 76 %, PPV 72 %) was achieved for the smoking and never-smoking cohorts, respectively. For the entire population and smoker cohort, COPD/emphysema/CB were the most important contributors, followed by BMI and age, while in the never-smoking cohort, BMI, age and SES were the most important contributors. CONCLUSION Known risk factors for LC could be used in ML models to modestly predict LC. Further studies are needed to confirm these results in new patients and to improve them.

Eur Radiol 2024:10.1007/s00330-024-10952-9. [PMID: 39026064 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-024-10952-9] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To estimate the pooled prevalence and progression rate of ILAs and identify the risk factors for radiological progression. MATERIALS AND METHODS An EMBASE and PubMed search was undertaken, identifying all studies meeting the inclusion criteria performed before May 10, 2023. Random effect models were used to estimate pooled prevalence, ILA progression rates, and odds ratio for radiological progression based on radiological subtype. Subgroup analyses were performed to compare the general and high-risk populations for lung cancer. The quality of the included studies was evaluated using the risk of bias assessment tool for non-randomized studies. RESULTS We analyzed 19 studies (241,541 patients) and 10 studies (1317 patients) for the pooled prevalence and progression rate of ILA, respectively. The pooled ILA prevalence was 9.7% (95% CI, 6.1-13.9%). The pooled prevalence was 6.8% (95% CI, 3.1-11.6%) and 7.1% (95% CI, 2.2-14.4%) in the general (six studies) and high-risk population for lung cancer (six studies), respectively. The pooled progression rate was 47.1% (95% CI, 29.1-65.5%). The pooled progression rate was 64.2% (95% CI, 45.0-81.2%, five studies) and 31.0% (95% CI, 8.2-60.5%, five studies) for longer (≥ 4.5 years) and shorter follow-up periods (< 4.5 years), respectively (p = 0.009). Fibrotic ILAs were significantly associated with a higher progression probability (combined OR, 5.55; 95% CI, 1.95-15.82). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of ILAs was approximately 9.7%. Approximately half of the patients exhibited radiological progression, with the rate increasing over a longer follow-up period. Fibrotic ILA was a significant risk factor for radiological progression. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT The prevalence of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) is approximately 9.7%, with about half exhibiting progression; a longer follow-up duration and fibrotic ILAs are associated with a higher progression rate. KEY POINTS ILAs are increasingly recognized as important, but few population data are available. ILAs exhibited a pooled prevalence of 9.7% with a progression rate of 47.1%. Fibrotic ILAs were associated with increased progression likelihood.

Abstract
Purpose Human extracellular matrix (ECM) exhibits complex protein composition and architecture depending on tissue and disease state, which remains challenging to reverse engineer. One promising approach is based on cell-secreted ECM from primary human fibroblasts that can be decellularized into acellular biomaterials. However, fibroblasts cultured on rigid culture plastic or biomaterial scaffolds can experience aberrant mechanical cues that perturb the biochemical, mechanical, and the efficiency of ECM production. Methods Here, we demonstrate a method for preparing decellularized ECM using primary human fibroblasts with tissue and disease-specific features with two case studies: (1) cardiac fibroblasts; (2) lung fibroblasts from healthy or diseased donors. Cells aggregate into engineered microtissues in low adhesion microwells that deposited ECM and can be decellularized. We systematically investigate microtissue morphology, matrix architecture, and mechanical properties, along with transcriptomic and proteomic analysis. Results Microtissues exhibited tissue-specific gene expression and proteomics profiling, with ECM complexity similar to native tissues. Healthy lung microtissues exhibited web-like fibrillar collagen compared to dense patches in healthy heart microtissues. Diseased lung exhibited more disrupted collagen architecture than healthy. Decellularized microtissues had tissue-specific mechanical stiffness that was physiologically relevant. Importantly, decellularized microtissues supported viability and proliferation of human cells. Conclusions We show that engineered microtissues of primary human fibroblasts seeded in low-adhesion microwells can be decellularized to produce human, tissue and disease-specific ECM. This approach should be widely applicable for generating personalized matrix that recapitulate tissues and disease states, relevant for culturing patient cells ex vivo as well as implantation for therapeutic treatments.

Abstract
With the approval of antifibrotic medications to treat patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and progressive pulmonary fibrosis, radiologists have an integral role in diagnosing these entities and guiding treatment decisions. CT features of early pulmonary fibrosis include irregular thickening of interlobular septa, pleura, and intralobular linear structures, with subsequent progression to reticular abnormality, traction bronchiectasis or bronchiolectasis, and honeycombing. CT patterns of fibrotic lung disease can often be reliably classified on the basis of the CT features and distribution of the condition. Accurate identification of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or probable UIP patterns by radiologists can obviate the need for a tissue sample-based diagnosis. Other entities that can appear as a UIP pattern must be excluded in multidisciplinary discussion before a diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is made. Although the imaging findings of nonspecific interstitial pneumonia and fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis can overlap with those of a radiologic UIP pattern, these entities can often be distinguished by paying careful attention to the radiologic signs. Diagnostic challenges may include misdiagnosis of fibrotic lung disease due to pitfalls such as airspace enlargement with fibrosis, paraseptal emphysema, recurrent aspiration, and postinfectious fibrosis. The radiologist also plays an important role in identifying complications of pulmonary fibrosis-pulmonary hypertension, acute exacerbation, infection, and lung cancer in particular. In cases in which there is uncertainty regarding the clinical and radiologic diagnoses, surgical biopsy is recommended, and a multidisciplinary discussion among clinicians, radiologists, and pathologists can be used to address diagnosis and management strategies. This review is intended to help radiologists diagnose and manage pulmonary fibrosis more accurately, ultimately aiding in the clinical management of affected patients. ©RSNA, 2024 Supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several rare surfactant-related gene (SRG) variants associated with interstitial lung disease are suspected to be associated with lung cancer, but data are missing. We aimed to study the epidemiology and phenotype of lung cancer in an international cohort of SRG variant carriers. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study of all adults with SRG variants in the OrphaLung network and compared lung cancer risk with telomere-related gene (TRG) variant carriers. RESULTS We identified 99 SRG adult variant carriers (SFTPA1 (n=18), SFTPA2 (n=31), SFTPC (n=24), ABCA3 (n=14) and NKX2-1 (n=12)), including 20 (20.2%) with lung cancer (SFTPA1 (n=7), SFTPA2 (n=8), SFTPC (n=3), NKX2-1 (n=2) and ABCA3 (n=0)). Among SRG variant carriers, the odds of lung cancer was associated with age (OR 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08), smoking (OR 20.7, 95% CI 6.60-76.2) and SFTPA1/SFTPA2 variants (OR 3.97, 95% CI 1.39-13.2). Adenocarcinoma was the only histological type reported, with programmed death ligand-1 expression ≥1% in tumour cells in three samples. Cancer staging was localised (I/II) in eight (40%) individuals, locally advanced (III) in two (10%) and metastatic (IV) in 10 (50%). We found no somatic variant eligible for targeted therapy. Seven cancers were surgically removed, 10 received systemic therapy, and three received the best supportive care according to their stage and performance status. The median overall survival was 24 months, with stage I/II cancers showing better survival. We identified 233 TRG variant carriers. The comparative risk (subdistribution hazard ratio) for lung cancer in SRG patients versus TRG patients was 18.1 (95% CI 7.1-44.7). CONCLUSIONS The high risk of lung cancer among SRG variant carriers suggests specific screening and diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The benefit of regular computed tomography scan follow-up should be evaluated.

[PMID: 38400790 PMCID: PMC10995702 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.15258] [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: 12/31/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effective therapeutic approach is still an unmet need for patients diagnosed with both lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD). This is primarily due to the possible risk of ILD exacerbation caused by surgery or radiotherapy. The current study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of local ablative therapy (LAT) for this specific population. METHODS Consecutive patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and ILD who received LAT between January 2018 and August 2022 were enrolled, and propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to match the non-ILD group. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS), and secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), adverse events (AEs) and hospital length of stay (HLOS). RESULTS The PSM algorithm yielded matched pairs in the ILD group (n = 25) and non-ILD group (n = 72) at a ratio of 1:3. There were no statistically significant differences in RFS (median 16.4 vs. 18 months; HR = 1.452, p = 0.259) and OS (median: not reached vs. 47.9 months; HR = 1.096, p = 0.884) between the two groups. Meanwhile, no acute exacerbation of ILD was observed in the ILD group. However, the incidence of pneumothorax, especially pneumothorax requiring chest tube drainage, was significantly higher (36.0% vs. 11.2%, p = 0.005) among patients with NSCLC and co-existing ILD, which resulted in longer HLOS (p = 0.045). CONCLUSION Although ILD was associated with a higher incidence of pneumothorax, the efficacy of LAT for NSCLC patients with ILD was comparable to those without ILD, suggesting that LAT might be a reliable and effective treatment option for this population, particularly in the early stage.

Abstract
AIM To clarify the prognosis and prognostic factors for lung cancer in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS In this retrospective longitudinal study, we investigated the medical records of patients with RA among 1422 patients diagnosed with lung cancer and registered in a hospital-based cancer registry between January 2013 and May 2022. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model were used to analyze survival and identify predictive factors. RESULTS Of 26 patients with RA complicated with lung cancer (median age, 69 years), the 2-year overall survival rates for stages I-II were 90%-100%, and those for stages III-IV were 20%, respectively. Positivity of anti-citrullinated protein/peptide antibody, smoking history, interstitial lung disease, poorly controlled RA, stage III and IV lung cancer, histological types other than adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma, and RF ≧ 50 IU/mL were associated with increased mortality. After the surgical resection of stage I and II lung cancer, 5 of the 16 patients experienced cancer recurrence after resumption of RA treatment, and the histology of the recurrent cancers was mostly squamous cell carcinoma. CONCLUSIONS Early detection of lung cancer is needed, especially in patients with RA who have a history of smoking, seropositivity, or interstitial lung disease. Even after surgical resection, it should be noted that squamous cell carcinoma is prone to recurrence.

J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:72. [PMID: 38331909 PMCID: PMC10851510 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02508-1] [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: 03/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients of interstitial lung disease (ILD) combined with pulmonary lesions are increasingly common in clinical practice. Patients with ILD are at significantly higher risk for complications after pulmonary resection (including lobectomy and sublobar resection), especially acute exacerbations of ILD (AE-ILD). The purpose of this study is to summarize the short-term and long-term outcomes after pulmonary resection in ILD patients and to analyze the clinical factors affecting surgical safety. METHODS From January 2004 to January 2022, a total of 78 patients who were diagnosed with ILD and underwent pulmonary resection at our center were enrolled in this study. Clinical data, pathological findings, surgical procedures, and intraoperative safety of these patients were collected retrospectively. Postoperative 90-day complications and mortality, long-term surgical outcomes from postoperative 90 days to 24 months, and changes in ILD condition were investigated. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors associated with postoperative complications. RESULTS The median age of patients was 66.5 (range 33-86) years, 82.1% (64/78) of patients were male, and 78.2% (61/78) of patients had comorbidities. Idiopathic ILD and secondary ILD accounted for 86% and 14%, thoracotomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery accounted for 12.8% and 87.2%, and lobectomy and sublobar resection accounted for 37.2% and 62.8%, respectively. Postoperative 90-day complications occurred in 25.6% (20/78) of patients, with pulmonary complications and AE-ILD occurring in 15.4% and 9.0% of patients, respectively. The postoperative 90-day mortality rate was 5.1% (4/78), and the cause of death was AE-ILD. Exacerbation of ILD or other complications occurred in 12.8% (10/78) of patients from postoperative 90 days to 24 months. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that comorbidity, extent of resection, systemic lymph node dissection, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and pathology of pulmonary lesion were associated with postoperative 90-day complications. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index and intraoperative blood loss were identified as independent risk factors of postoperative 90-day complications. CONCLUSIONS Patients with ILD have a significantly higher risk of postoperative 90-day complications and mortality after pulmonary resection, especially pulmonary complications and AE-ILD. After postoperative 90 days, the risk of deterioration of pulmonary status remains high, including exacerbation of ILD and complications associated with long-term use of glucocorticoids and immunosuppressant. Age, comorbidity and intraoperative blood loss are high risk factors for postoperative 90-day complications.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Although smoking-related lung cancers continue to account for the majority of diagnoses, smoking rates have been decreasing for several decades. Lung cancer in individuals who have never smoked (LCINS) is estimated to be the fifth most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide in 2023, preferentially occurring in women and Asian populations. As smoking rates continue to decline, understanding the aetiology and features of this disease, which necessitate unique diagnostic and treatment paradigms, will be imperative. New data have provided important insights into the molecular and genomic characteristics of LCINS, which are distinct from those of smoking-associated lung cancers and directly affect treatment decisions and outcomes. Herein, we review the emerging data regarding the aetiology and features of LCINS, particularly the genetic and environmental underpinnings of this disease as well as their implications for treatment. In addition, we outline the unique diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms of LCINS and discuss future directions in identifying individuals at high risk of this disease for potential screening efforts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND. Treatment options for patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) who develop stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are severely limited, given that surgical resection, radiation, and systemic therapy are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous ablation of stage I-II NSCLC in patients with ILD. METHODS. This retrospective study included patients with ILD and stage I-II NSCLC treated with percutaneous ablation in three health systems between October 2004 and February 2023. At each site, a single thoracic radiologist, blinded to clinical outcomes, reviewed preprocedural chest CT examinations for the presence and type of ILD according to 2018 criteria proposed by the American Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, Japanese Respiratory Society, and Latin American Thoracic Society. The primary outcome was 90-day major (grade ≥ 3) adverse events, based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. Secondary outcomes were hospital length of stay (HLOS), local tumor control, and overall survival (OS). RESULTS. The study included 33 patients (19 men, 14 women; median age, 78 years; 16 patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤ 1) with ILD who underwent 42 percutaneous ablation sessions (21 cryoablations, 11 radiofrequency ablations, 10 microwave ablations) of 43 NSCLC tumors ((median tumor size, 1.6 cm; IQR, 1.4-2.5 cm; range, 0.7-5.4 cm; 37 stage I, six stage II). The extent of lung fibrosis was 20% or less in 24 patients; 17 patients had imaging findings of definite or probable usual interstitial pneumonia. The 90-day major adverse event rate was 14% (6/42), including one CTCAE grade 4 event. No acute ILD exacerbation or death occurred within 90 days after ablation. The median HLOS was 1 day (IQR, 0-2 days). Median imaging follow-up for local tumor control was 17 months (IQR, 11-32 months). Median imaging or clinical follow-up for OS was 16 months (IQR, 6-26 months). Local tumor control and OS were 78% and 77%, respectively, at 1 year and 73% and 46% at 2 years. CONCLUSION. Percutaneous ablation appears to be a safe and effective treatment option for stage I-II NSCLC in the setting of ILD after multidisciplinary selection. CLINICAL IMPACT. Patients with ILD and stage I-II NSCLC should be considered for percutaneous ablation given that they are frequently ineligible for surgical resection, radiation, and systemic therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Evaluate the behavior of lung nodules occurring in areas of pulmonary fibrosis and compare them to pulmonary nodules occurring in the non-fibrotic lung parenchyma. METHODS This retrospective review of chest CT scans and electronic medical records received expedited IRB approval and a waiver of informed consent. 4500 consecutive patients with a chest CT scan report containing the word fibrosis or a specific type of fibrosis were identified using the system M*Model Catalyst (Maplewood, Minnesota, U.S.). The largest nodule was measured in the longest dimension and re-evaluated, in the same way, on the follow-up exam if multiple time points were available. The nodule doubling time was calculated. If the patient developed cancer, the histologic diagnosis was documented. RESULTS Six hundred and nine patients were found to have at least one pulmonary nodule on either the first or the second CT scan. 274 of the largest pulmonary nodules were in the fibrotic tissue and 335 were in the non-fibrotic lung parenchyma. Pathology proven cancer was more common in nodules occurring in areas of pulmonary fibrosis compared to nodules occurring in areas of non-fibrotic lung (34% vs 15%, p < 0.01). Adenocarcinoma was the most common cell type in both groups but more frequent in cancers occurring in non-fibrotic tissue. In the non-fibrotic lung, 1 of 126 (0.8%) of nodules measuring 1 to 6 mm were cancer. In contrast, 5 of 49 (10.2%) of nodules in fibrosis measuring 1 to 6 mm represented biopsy-proven cancer (p < 0.01). The doubling time for squamous cell cancer was shorter in the fibrotic lung compared to non-fibrotic lung, however, the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.24). 15 incident lung nodules on second CT obtained ≤ 18 months after first CT scan was found in fibrotic lung and eight (53%) were diagnosed as cancer. CONCLUSIONS Nodules occurring in fibrotic lung tissue are more likely to be cancer than nodules in the nonfibrotic lung. Incident pulmonary nodules in pulmonary fibrosis have a high likelihood of being cancer.

Abstract
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis interstitial lung disease (IPF-ILD) is a progressive lung disease characterized by excessive collagen deposition and fibrotic changes in the lungs. Identifying reliable serum markers that correlate with disease progression is crucial for diagnosis and prognosis. Objective This study aimed to explore the association between serum markers KL-6 and VEGF and IPF-ILD. Specifically, it assessed their correlation with PaO2, a measure of pulmonary gas function, to provide diagnostic and prognostic indicators. Methods Patients with IPF-ILD were included, and their serum levels of KL-6 and VEGF were measured. Correlations with fibrotic damage and PaO2 were analyzed using statistical methods. Results The analysis confirmed a positive correlation between the serum marker KL-6 and the degree of fibrotic damage in IPF-ILD. On the other hand, the serum marker VEGF was found to promote disease progression. In terms of correlation with PaO2, both KL-6 and VEGF demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity. Specifically, the correlation between KL-6 and PaO2 suggests that it can be used as a reliable indicator to assess the status of pulmonary oxygenation function in patients with ILD. The correlation between VEGF and PaO2 helps to understand its role in the progression of IPF-ILD and provides an important basis for predicting patient prognosis. Conclusion This study confirmed the correlation between KL-6 and VEGF with IPF-ILD and their association with PaO2. KL-6 and VEGF demonstrated high specificity and sensitivity in diagnosing, monitoring, and predicting prognosis in IPF-ILD. These findings contribute to our understanding of the disease and have clinical implications for diagnosis and prognostication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although acute exacerbation (AE) after treatment for lung cancer (LC) is a poor prognostic factor in patients with interstitial lung disease associated with lung cancer (ILD-LC), the risk of AE according to cancer treatment type remains unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to investigate the association between AE and treatment received for LC in patients with ILD-LC. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of patients with ILD-LC who had undergone treatment for LC between January 2018 and December 2022. The primary study outcome was the incidence of AE within 12 months of treatment for LC according to treatment type. The association between AE and all-cause mortality was evaluated as a secondary outcome. RESULTS Among a total of 137 patients, 23 (16.8%) developed AE within 12 months of treatment for LC. The incidence of AE according to treatment type was 4.3% for surgery, 16.2% for radiotherapy, 15.6% for chemotherapy, and 54.5% for concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT). Patients who received CCRT were more likely to develop AE, even after adjustment for covariables (hazard ratio [HR], 15.39; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.00-59.19; p < 0.001). In addition, AE within 12 months of treatment for LC was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR, 2.82; 95% CI: 1.13-7.04; p = 0.026). CONCLUSION Among treatment options for patients with ILD-LC, CCRT was associated with an increased risk for AE. In addition, patients with AE had a higher mortality rate than patients without AE.

Clinical spectrum of Chinese hospitalized lung cancer patients with concomitant interstitial lung disease: before and after the new era of LC treatment. Clin Exp Med 2023; 23:2321-2330.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the general characteristics and spectrum of hospitalized Chinese patients suffering from lung cancer with concomitant interstitial lung disease (LC-ILD). Furthermore, we compared their features before and after the period of immunotherapy for lung cancer. A retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of hospitalized LC patients with definite pathological diagnoses was performed from 2014 to 2021. ILD was defined after the review of chest CT imaging. There were 13,085 hospitalized LC patients. Among them, 509 patients (3.89%) had 551 cases of ILD. There were variable underlying causes of ILD, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (360 patients), LC treatment-associated ILD (134 cases), and connective tissue disease-associated ILD (55 patients). Although most LC-ILD patients were suffering from adenocarcinoma (204/40.1%), SCLC patients were prone to concomitant ILD (10.8% of all SCLC cases), followed by SCC (9.6% of all SCC cases). All but 10 LC-ILD patients received anti-LC treatment; however, only 39 (10.8%) LC-IIP patients received anti-ILD treatment. There were more LC-ILD patients in the 2018-2021 group than in the 2014-2017 group (5.16% vs. 2.03%, p < 0.001). The underlying causes of ILD were significantly different between the 2018-2021 group and the 2014-2017 group (p < 0.001). After adjusting for the number of hospitalized patients having the same LC pathological pattern, SCLC was determined to be the most likely to be concomitant with ILD, followed by SCC. Most LC-ILD patients were scheduled for anti-LC therapy; however, treatments for concomitant IIP were usually ignored. LC treatment-associated ILD should receive more attention than before.

Abstract
Crizotinib is the first-line drug for advanced non-small cell lung cancer with the abnormal expression of anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene. Severe, life-threatening, or fatal interstitial lung disease/pneumonia has been reported in patients treated with crizotinib. The clinical benefit of crizotinib is limited by its pulmonary toxicity, but the underlying mechanisms have not been adequately studied, and protective strategies are relatively scarce. Here, we established an in vivo mouse model in which crizotinib was continuously administered to C57BL/6 at 100 mg/kg/day for 6 weeks and verified that crizotinib induced interstitial lung disease in vivo, which was consistent with the clinical observations. We further treated BEAS-2B and TC-1 cells, the alveolar epithelial cell lines, with crizotinib and found the increased apoptosis rate. We proved that crizotinib-blocked autophagic flux caused apoptosis of the alveolar epithelial cells and then promoted the recruitment of immune cells, suggesting that limited autophagy activity was the key reason for pulmonary injury and inflammation caused by crizotinib. Subsequently, we found that metformin could reduce the macrophage recruitment and pulmonary fibrosis by recovering the autophagy flux, thereby ameliorating impaired lung function caused by crizotinib. In conclusion, our study revealed the mechanism of crizotinib-induced apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells and activation of inflammation during the onset of pulmonary toxicity and provided a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of crizotinib-induced pulmonary toxicity.

Abstract
Human extracellular matrix (ECM) exhibits complex protein composition and architecture depending on tissue and disease state, which remains challenging to reverse engineer. One promising approach is based on cell-secreted ECM from human fibroblasts, which can then be decellularized into an acellular biomaterial. However, fibroblasts initially seeded on rigid tissue culture plastic or biomaterial scaffolds experience aberrant mechanical cues that influence ECM deposition. Here, we show that engineered microtissues of primary human fibroblasts seeded in low-adhesion microwells can be decellularized to produce human, tissue-specific ECM. We investigate: 1) cardiac fibroblasts, as well as 2) lung fibroblasts from healthy, idiopathic fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease donors. We demonstrate optimized culture and decellularization conditions, then characterize gene expression and protein composition. We further characterize ECM microstructure and mechanical properties. We envision that this method could be utilized for biomanufacturing of patient and tissue-specific ECM for organoid drug screening as well as implantable scaffolds. Impact In this study, we demonstrate a method for preparing decellularized matrix using primary human fibroblasts with tissue and disease-specific features. We aggregate single cell dispersions into engineered tissues using low adhesion microwells and show culture conditions that promote ECM deposition. We demonstrate this approach for cardiac fibroblasts as well as lung fibroblasts (both normal and diseased). We systematically investigate tissue morphology, matrix architecture, and mechanical properties, along with transcriptomic and proteomic analysis. This approach should be widely applicable for generating personalized ECM with features of patient tissues and disease state, relevant for culturing patient cells ex vivo as well as implantation for therapeutic treatments.

Abstract
It is now well established that the biology of cancer is influenced by not only malignant cells but also other components of the tumour microenvironment. Chronic inflammation and fibrosis have long been postulated to be involved in carcinogenesis. Chronic inflammation can promote tumorigenesis via growth factor/cytokine-mediated cellular proliferation, apoptotic resistance, immunosuppression; and free-radical-induced oxidative deoxyribonucleic acid damage. Fibrosis could cause a perturbation in the dynamics of the tumour microenvironment, potentially damaging the genome surveillance machinery of normal epithelial cells. In this review, we will provide an in-depth discussion of various diseases characterised by inflammation and fibrosis that have been associated with an increased risk of malignancy. In particular, we will present a comprehensive overview of the impact of alterations in stromal composition on tumorigenesis, induced as a consequence of inflammation and/or fibrosis. Strategies including the application of various therapeutic agents with stromal manipulation potential and targeted cancer screening for certain inflammatory diseases which can reduce the risk of cancer will also be discussed.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence suggests that anesthetics impact the outcome of patients with cancer after surgical intervention. However, the optimal dose and underlying mechanisms of co-administered anesthetics in lung tumor therapy have been poorly studied. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of combined anesthetics propofol, sufentanil, and rocuronium in treating lung cancer using an orthogonal experimental design and to explore the optimal combination of anesthetics. First, we evaluated the effects of the three anesthetics on the proliferation and invasion of A-549 cells using Cell Counting Kit 8 and Transwell migration and invasion assays. Subsequently, we applied the orthogonal experimental design (OED) method to screen the appropriate concentrations of the combined anesthetics with the most effective antitumor activity. We found that all three agents inhibited the proliferation of A-549 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner when applied individually or in combination, with the highest differences in the magnitude of inhibition occurring 24 h after combined drug exposure. The optimal combination of the three anesthetics that achieved the strongest reduction in cell viability was 1.4 µmol/L propofol, 2 nmol/L sufentanil, and 7.83 µmol/L rocuronium. This optimal 3-drug combination produced a more beneficial result at 24 h than either single drug. Our results provide a theoretical basis for improving the efficacy of lung tumor treatment and optimizing anesthetic strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the safety and efficacy of cryoablation of treatment-naïve stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients with and without interstitial lung disease (ILD). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective single-center cohort study evaluated 33 consecutive patients (24 females, median age 75 years, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score 0-3) with ILD (9 patients) and without ILD (24 patients) who underwent 39 percutaneous cryoablations to treat 42 stage IA (8th IASLC edition) NSCLC measuring 1.2 cm (range 0.5-2.6 cm) from 2018 to 2022. Presence of ILD was determined according to 2018 American Thoracic Society Criteria on pre-ablation CT scans. The primary outcome was 90-day adverse events graded by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v5.0. Secondary outcomes were hospital length of stay (LOS), local recurrence-free survival, overall survival, and the cumulative incidence of local recurrence with death as a competing risk. RESULTS Adverse events ranged from grade 1-3 and occurred more often in the non-ILD group (p <.001). No acute exacerbation of ILD or death occurred within 90 days after cryoablation. The median LOS was 1 day (interquartile range 1-2 days) and did not differ between groups. One patient with ILD and two patients without ILD died after 22, 26, and 27 months from causes unrelated to cryoablation. Median imaging follow-up was 11 months (range, 0-47 months) and three tumors (7%) showed local recurrence after 4, 17, and 22 months. No difference in the cumulative incidence of local recurrence (p =.56) was found. Among all patients, local recurrence-free survival on a per-tumor basis and overall survival were 97% and 100% at 1 year, respectively. CONCLUSION Adverse events and local recurrence following percutaneous cryoablation of stage IA NSCLC did not differ between patients with and without ILD. No acute exacerbation of ILD or death within 90 days were observed.

Abstract
Clinical trials on cancer treatments frequently exclude patients with prior cancer, but more evidence is needed to understand their possible effects on outcomes. This study analyzed the prognostic impact of prior cancer in newly diagnosed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients while accounting for various patient and cancer characteristics. Using population-based cancer registry data linked with administrative claims data, this retrospective cohort study examined patients aged 15-84 years diagnosed with NSCLC between 2010 and 2015 in Japan. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of all-cause mortality in patients with versus without prior cancer. The analysis was stratified according to NSCLC stage and diagnostic time intervals between prior cancers and the index NSCLC. We analyzed 9103 patients (prior cancer: 1416 [15.6%]; no prior cancer: 7687 [84.4%]). Overall, prior cancer had a non-significant mortality HR of 1.07 (95% CI: 0.97-1.17). Furthermore, prior cancer had a significantly higher mortality hazard for diagnostic time intervals of 3 years (HR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.06-1.43) and 5 years (1.18, 1.04-1.33), but not for longer intervals. However, prior cancer in patients with more advanced NSCLC did not show a higher mortality risk for any diagnostic time interval. Smoking-related prior cancers and prior cancers with poorer prognosis were associated with poorer survival. NSCLC patients with prior cancer do not have an invariably higher risk of mortality, and should be considered for inclusion in clinical trials depending on their cancer stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Initial evidence supports the hypothesis that patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) have a higher risk of lung cancer. We systematically reviewed the available literature to define the characteristics of lung malignancies in patients with bronchiectasis and the characteristics of patients who develop bronchiectasis-associated lung cancer. METHOD This study was performed based on the PRISMA guidelines. The review protocol was registered in PROSPERO. RESULTS The frequency rates of lung cancer in patients with NCFB ranged from 0.93% to 8.0%. The incidence rate was 3.96. Cancer more frequently occurred in the elderly and males. Three studies found an overall higher risk of developing lung cancer in the NCFB population compared to the non-bronchiectasis one, and adenocarcinoma was the most frequently reported histological type. The effect of the co-existence of NCFB and COPD was unclear. CONCLUSIONS NCFB is associated with a higher risk of developing lung cancer than individuals without NCFB. This risk is higher for males, the elderly, and smokers, whereas concomitant COPD's effect is unclear.

Outcome following nivolumab treatment in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and comorbid interstitial lung disease in a real-world setting. Ther Adv Med Oncol 2023; 15:17588359231152847. [PMID: 36743523 PMCID: PMC9893351 DOI: 10.1177/17588359231152847] [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: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 01/05/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Up to 10% of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) have pre-existing interstitial lung disease (ILD). These patients are usually excluded from immunotherapy clinical trials. Consequently, knowledge on outcomes following nivolumab treatment in these patients remains limited. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate survival outcome following nivolumab treatment in ILD patients with pre-treated aNSCLC in the real-world setting. Patients and methods The study included all patients with aNSCLC recorded in the French hospital database, starting nivolumab in 2015-2016. Patients were stratified by pre-existing ILD and three subgroups were studied [auto-immune or granulomatous (AI/G) ILD, other known causes ILD and idiopathic ILD]. Time to discontinuation of nivolumab treatment [time to treatment duration (TTD)] and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results Of 10,452 aNSCLC patients initiating nivolumab, 148 (1.4%) had pre-existing ILD. Mean age at nivolumab initiation was 64.6 ± 9.4 years in ILD and 63.8 ± 9.6 years in non-ILD. Compared to non-ILD, patients in the ILD group were more frequently men (p < 0.05) and had more comorbidities (p < 0.001). There was no significant difference between ILD and non-ILD groups for median TTD (2.5 versus 2.8 months; p = 0.6) or median OS (9.6 versus 11.9 months; p = 0.1). Median OS in AI/G ILD (n = 14), other known causes ILD (n = 75), and idiopathic ILD (n = 59) were 8.6, 10.7, and 9.6 months, respectively. Conclusion In this large cohort of aNSCLC patients with ILD, outcomes are similar to those obtained in the non-ILD population. Immunotherapy could be beneficial for these patients.

Abstract
Peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) are frequent incidental findings in subjects when performing chest radiographs or chest computed tomography (CT) scans. When a PPL is identified, it is necessary to proceed with a risk stratification based on the patient profile and the characteristics found on chest CT. In order to proceed with a diagnostic procedure, the first-line examination is often a bronchoscopy with tissue sampling. Many guidance technologies have recently been developed to facilitate PPLs sampling. Through bronchoscopy, it is currently possible to ascertain the PPL's benign or malignant nature, delaying the therapy's second phase with radical, supportive, or palliative intent. In this review, we describe all the new tools available: from the innovation of bronchoscopic instrumentation (e.g., ultrathin bronchoscopy and robotic bronchoscopy) to the advances in navigation technology (e.g., radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound, virtual navigation, electromagnetic navigation, shape-sensing navigation, cone-beam computed tomography). In addition, we summarize all the PPLs ablation techniques currently under experimentation. Interventional pulmonology may be a discipline aiming at adopting increasingly innovative and disruptive technologies.

Ko KM, Moon SJ. Prevalence, incidence, and risk factors of malignancy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis: a nationwide cohort study from Korea. Korean J Intern Med 2023; 38:113-124.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS This study aims to evaluate the incidence of malignancy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to investigate risk factors for such in a nationwide, population-based cohort. METHODS In a large, prospective, observational cohort study, 5,077 patients with RA were enrolled from July 2009 to December 2011 and followed until February 2017. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for malignancy were calculated using age- and sex-specific cancer rates in the Korean general population. Poisson regression was used to identify the risk of incident malignancy. RESULTS The cohort included 5,023 participants with RA contributing 16,689 person-years of follow-up. A total of 148 malignancies were recorded. The risks of stomach cancer (SIR, 0.41; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.21 to 0.74), colon cancer (SIR, 0.13; 95% CI, 0.03 to 0.37), and lung cancer (SIR, 0.35; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.72) were lower in RA patients than in the general population. Poisson regression modeling demonstrated that the malignancy risk was more than two-fold greater in patients with thyroid disease than in those without thyroid disease. Hydroxychloroquine therapy was associated with a reduced risk (relative risk, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.189 to 0.801) of malignancy development. CONCLUSION The overall risk of malignancy in patients with RA is decreased relative to in the general population. In particular, stomach, colon, and lung cancers in Korean RA patients are less common, while brain and central nervous system cancers in male RA patients are more frequent. The patients with thyroid disease and longer RA disease duration were at increased risk for developing malignancy, while hydroxychloroquine users were at lower risk.

Abstract
Despite its wide-ranging benefits, whole-transcriptome or RNA exome profiling is challenging to implement in a clinical diagnostic setting. The Unified Assay is a comprehensive workflow wherein exome-enriched RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) assays are performed on clinical samples and analyzed by a series of advanced machine learning-based classifiers. Gene expression signatures and rare and/or novel genomic events, including fusions, mitochondrial variants, and loss of heterozygosity were assessed using RNA-Seq data generated from 120,313 clinical samples across three clinical indications (thyroid cancer, lung cancer, and interstitial lung disease). Since its implementation, the data derived from the Unified Assay have allowed significantly more patients to avoid unnecessary diagnostic surgery and have played an important role in guiding follow-up decisions regarding treatment. Collectively, data from the Unified Assay show the utility of RNA-Seq and RNA expression signatures in the clinical laboratory, and their importance to the future of precision medicine.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) can coexist with early-stage lung cancer (LC) and may compromise surgery and worsen patients' outcomes. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is the gold standard treatment for medically inoperable early-stage lung cancer, but radiation therapy is contra-indicated for patients with ILD because of the higher risk of severe radiation-induced pneumonitis. SBRT may spare healthy lung tissue, but data are scarce in this rare population. Our exploratory case series aimed to retrospectively identify patients treated with SBRT in this setting: 19 patients were diagnosed with early-stage LC-ILD over the past 6 years and 9 received SBRT. Most of them were smokers with a median age of 71, 4 had no pathological documentation. After SBRT, 5 patients had grade I-II respiratory adverse events (AEs), but none had treatment-related grade III-IV respiratory AEs. Two patients died within 6 months of SBRT, and for both, death was related to metastatic relapse. In this case series, the radiological evolution of ILD before radiotherapy and the evolution of the radiotherapy scar on CT-Scan were also explored with different evolutionary models. This exploratory study shows available data that could be studied in a larger retrospective cohort to identify risk factors for SBRT in the LC-ILD population. The use of dosimetric data as a risk factor for SBRT should be done with cautiousness due to heterogeneous and complex dose delivery and different fractionation schedule.

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

Abstract
PURPOSE Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILAs) represent nondependent abnormalities on chest computed tomography (CT) indicating lung parenchymal damages due to inflammation and fibrosis. Interstitial lung abnormalities have been studied as a predictor of clinical outcome in lung cancer, but not in other thoracic malignancies. The present study investigated the prevalence of ILA in patients with esophageal cancer and identified risk factors and clinical implications of ILA in these patients. METHODS The study included 208 patients with locally advanced esophageal cancer (median age, 65.6 years; 166 males, 42 females). Interstitial lung abnormality was scored on baseline CT scans before treatment using a 3-point scale (0 = no evidence of ILA, 1 = equivocal for ILA, 2 = ILA). Clinical characteristics and overall survival were compared in patients with ILA (score 2) and others. RESULTS An ILA was present in 14 of 208 patients (7%) with esophageal cancer on pretreatment chest CT. Patients with ILA were significantly older (median age, 69 vs 65, respectively; P = 0.011), had a higher number of pack-years of smoking ( P = 0.02), and more commonly had T4 stage disease ( P = 0.026) than patients with ILA score of 1 or 0. Interstitial lung abnormality on baseline scan was associated with a lack of surgical resection after chemoradiotherapy (7/14, 50% vs 39/194, 20% respectively; P = 0.016). Interstitial lung abnormality was not associated with overall survival (log-rank P = 0.75, Cox P = 0.613). CONCLUSIONS An ILA was present in 7% of esophageal cancer patients, which is similar to the prevalence in general population and in smokers. Interstitial lung abnormality was strongly associated with a lack of surgical resection after chemoradiotherapy, indicating an implication of ILA in treatment selection in these patients, which can be further studied in larger cohorts.

Abstract
Interstitial lung abnormality (ILA) is defined as an interstitial change detected incidentally on CT images. It is seen in 4%-9% of smokers and 2%-7% of nonsmokers. ILA has a tendency to progress with time and is associated with respiratory symptoms, decreased exercise capability, reduced pulmonary function, and increased mortality. ILAs can be classified into three subcategories: nonsubpleural, subpleural nonfibrotic, and subpleural fibrotic. In cases of ILA, clinically significant interstitial lung disease should be identified and requires clinically driven management by a pulmonologist. Risk factors for the progression of ILA include clinical elements (ie, inhalation exposures, medication use, radiation therapy, thoracic surgery, physiologic findings, and gas exchange findings) and radiologic elements (ie, basal and peripheral predominance and fibrotic findings). It is recommended that individuals with one or more clinical or radiologic risk factors for progression of ILA be actively monitored with pulmonary function testing and CT. To avoid overcalling ILA at CT, radiologists must recognize the imaging pitfalls, including centrilobular nodularity, dependent abnormality, suboptimal inspiration, osteophyte-related lesions, apical cap and pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis-like lesions, aspiration, and infection. There is a close association between ILA and lung cancer, and many studies have reported an increased incidence of lung cancer, worse prognoses, and/or increased pulmonary complications in relation to cancer treatment in patients with ILA. ILA is considered to be an important comorbidity in patients with lung cancer. Accordingly, all radiologists involved with body CT must have sound knowledge of ILAs owing to the high prevalence and potential clinical significance of these anomalies. An overview of ILAs, including a literature review of the associations between ILAs and lung cancer, is presented. ©RSNA, 2022.

Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) including idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis increases the risk of developing lung cancer. Diagnosing and staging lung cancer in patients with ILD is challenging and requires careful interpretation of computed tomography (CT) and fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT to distinguish nodules from areas of fibrosis. Minimally invasive tissue sampling is preferred but may be technically challenging given tumor location, coexistent fibrosis, and pneumothorax risk. Current treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, percutaneous thermal ablation, and systemic therapy; however, ILD increases the risks associated with each treatment option, especially acute ILD exacerbation.

Diagnostic accuracy and safety of CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy with a coaxial cutting needle for the diagnosis of lung cancer in patients with UIP pattern. Sci Rep 2022; 12:15682. [PMID: 36127437 PMCID: PMC9489867 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-20030-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy and safety of CT-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy (PCNB) with a coaxial needle for the diagnosis of lung cancer in patients with an usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern of interstitial lung disease. This study included 70 patients with UIP and suspected to have lung cancer. CT-guided PCNB was performed using a 20-gauge coaxial cutting needle. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and percentage of nondiagnostic results for PCNB were determined in comparison with the final diagnosis. PCNB-related complications were evaluated. Additionally, the risk factors for nondiagnostic results and pneumothorax were analyzed. The overall diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were 85.7%, 85.5%, and 87.5%, respectively. The percentage of nondiagnostic results was 18.6% (13/70). Two or less biopsy sampling was a risk factor for nondiagnostic results (p = 0.003). The overall complication rate was 35.7% (25/70), and pneumothorax developed in 22 patients (31.4%). A long transpulmonary needle path was a risk factor for the development of pneumothorax (p = 0.007). CT-guided PCNB using a coaxial needle is an effective method with reasonable accuracy and an acceptable complication rate for the diagnosis of lung cancer, even in patients with UIP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tepotinib, a highly selective, oral, once-daily MET inhibitor, has been approved for treatment of metastatic MET exon 14 skipping non-small cell lung cancer. OBJECTIVES This article provides nurse-specific recommendations for identification and management of tepotinib adverse events (AEs). METHODS Guidance on monitoring and proactive/reactive AE management was developed based on published literature and real-world nursing experience. Case studies of VISION trial participants were summarized to illustrate key principles. FINDINGS Tepotinib AEs are generally mild to moderate and manageable, and can include peripheral edema, hypoalbuminemia, nausea, diarrhea, and creatinine increase. Alongside supportive care, tepotinib interruption and dose reduction is recommended for grade 3 AEs. For peripheral edema, proactive monitoring is crucial, and treatment interruption (including frequent, short treatment holidays) should be considered early. Nursing management of tepotinib AEs includes proactive monitoring, patient education, and interprofessional team coordination.

Abstract
Background It has long been thought that small‐cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a central type of tumor that is located in the proximal bronchi and the mediastinum. However, several studies reported that SCLC exhibited several types of spread pattern on computed tomography (CT). The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between CT images and clinical characteristics in patients with SCLC. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the CT images of 92 SCLC patients and classified them into six types of spreading patterns: central, peripheral, lymphangitic spread (LYM), pleural dissemination (PLE), lobar replacement (LOB), and air‐space consolidation (AC). We also evaluated the correlation between primary tumor location and the clinical characteristics of patients. Results The most common type of imaging pattern was peripheral (n = 40, 44%), with the next most common type being central (n = 27, 29%). Atypical types of SCLC, such as LYM (n = 2, 2%), PLE (n = 4, 4%), LOB (n = 8, 9%), and AC (n = 11, 12%), were also recognized in our study. The prevalence of emphysema and interstitial lung disease (ILD) was significantly higher in the peripheral type than in the central type (p = 0.0056 and p = 0.0403, respectively). Meanwhile, no survival difference was seen between the central type and the peripheral type (median months 17.9 vs. 21.9, respectively, p = 0.720). Conclusions The peripheral type of tumor was correlated with higher prevalence of emphysema and ILD in SCLC. Our result suggests different mechanisms of development and tumor characteristics according to tumor location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Understanding the impact of patient and tumor characteristics on lung cancer survival can help build personalized prognostic models and identify health disparities. METHODS We identified 557 555 patients aged 25 years and older diagnosed with lung or bronchus carcinoma from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, 2000-2016. We estimated hazard ratios (HR) for demographic (sex, age, race and ethnicity), tumor (stage, histology, year of diagnosis), and geographic characteristics (census tract-level urbanicity, socioeconomic status [SES]), as well as selected interactions, on the rate of lung cancer-specific death using multivariable proportional hazards models. RESULTS Women had a higher survival (lower hazard) of lung cancer-specific death than men (HR = 0.83, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.82 to 0.83). Hazards differed by race and ethnicity. Regional (HR = 2.41, 95% CI = 2.37 to 2.44) and distant (HR = 6.61, 95% CI = 6.53 to 6.69) tumors were associated with a lower survival (higher hazard) than localized tumors. Small cell tumors were associated with a lower survival (HR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.18 to 1.20) than non-small cell tumors. Patients diagnosed after 2009 had lower hazards (HR = 0.86, 95% CI = 085 to 0.86) than those diagnosed 2000-2009. Lung cancer-specific survival did not depend on urbanicity after adjusting for census tract-level SES, but survival decreased with decreasing census tract-level SES. Differences in survival between non-Hispanic Black and White patients were greater for younger patients and localized tumors and increased with census tract-level SES. Differences by sex were greatest for young patients and localized tumors. CONCLUSIONS Disparities in survival after lung cancer diagnosis remain, with intersectional patterns suggesting differential access to and quality of care. Efforts are needed to ensure that high-risk groups receive guideline-concordant treatment.

Abstract
Background: It remains uncertain whether ankylosing spondylitis is associated with an increased risk of lung cancer. Methods: We conducted a meta-analysis to comprehensively evaluate the correlation between ankylosing spondylitis and lung cancer based on existing literature. Eligible studies were identified by searching the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library before 26 March 2021. Subgroup analyses based on regions were also carried out. To further explore their causality, a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was performed, with 25 ankylosing spondylitis-related single nucleotide polymorphisms derived from the largest sample genome-wide association study of ankylosing spondylitis (ebi-a-GCST005529, 22,647 individuals). The inverse variance-weighted method was applied to estimate the causality, and the pleiotropy was assessed utilizing the Mendelian randomization-Egger regression approach. Results: The meta-analysis including seven studies, with a total of 39,186 individuals, suggested no significant association between ankylosing spondylitis and lung cancer (relative risk, 1.10; 95% confidence interval, 0.89-1.36; I2, 61.8%). After excluding one study leading to high heterogeneity, we found that ankylosing spondylitis was associated with a 19% increased risk of lung cancer (relative risk, 1.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.40; I2, 0.0%). Subgroup analyses suggested that ankylosing spondylitis was not associated with increased risks of lung cancer in neither European (relative risk, 1.05; 95% confidence interval, 0.80-1.39; I2, 0.0%) nor non-European (relative risk, 1.14; 95% confidence interval, 0.84-1.55; I2, 79.6%) patients. Nevertheless, the Mendelian randomization results indicated that genetically determined ankylosing spondylitis was causally correlated with a remarkably increased risk of lung cancer among European populations (odds ratio, 1.26; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-1.48). Subgroup analyses further elucidated that genetically determined ankylosing spondylitis was causally associated with a notably higher risk of only squamous cell lung cancer (odds ratio, 1.39; 95% confidence interval, 1.05-1.83), rather than lung adenocarcinoma (odds ratio, 1.18; 95% confidence interval, 0.91-1.54). In addition, the results indicated the absence of pleiotropy. Conclusion: The results of both modified meta-analysis and Mendelian randomization analysis suggested that ankylosing spondylitis was likely to be correlated with the development of lung cancer. Further research is warranted to clarify the specific mechanism regarding the causality between the two diseases.

Abstract
Background Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is the major histological type in lung cancer (LC). The tumor microenvironment (TME) drives tumor progression and metastasis. In the TME, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) play key roles in carcinogenesis. However, the roles of CAFs in lung SCC remain unknown. In this study, we evaluated whether the CAF phenotype was determined by various CAF-related proteins and whether CAF-related protein expression contributed to clinical outcomes in patients with lung SCC. Methods We examined the associations of CAF- and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related markers expressed in CAFs, including α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), CD10, podoplanin, fibroblast-specific protein 1 (FSP1), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) α, PDGFRβ, adipocyte enhancer-binding protein 1 (AEBP1), fibroblast activation protein (FAP), tenascin-C, Zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1), and twist homolog 1 gene (TWIST1), in 108 lung SCC tissues using immunohistochemistry. In addition, cluster analysis was used to identify objective expression patterns of immunohistochemical markers. Finally, the CD3/CD8 ratio was evaluated in order to identify the associations of CAF-related proteins with the CD3/CD8 ratio using immunohistochemistry. Results SCC samples were classified into two subgroups (CAF-phenotype), which were significantly correlated with disease-free and overall survival using univariate and multivariate analyses. Moreover, high AEBP1 expression was identified as an independent prognostic marker in this cohort by univariate and multivariate analyses. The CD3/CD8 ratio was not correlated with the CAF-phenotype. Conclusions The presence of a specific subgroup defined by multiple markers could be used for prediction of prognosis in patients with lung SCC. In addition, AEBP1 overexpression played key roles in prediction of a poor prognosis in patients with lung SCC.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to determine interstitial lung disease (ILD) incidences in patients receiving cancer drug therapies with or without bevacizumab treatment. METHODS Systematic searches of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library were conducted in January 2021. The main inclusion criteria were randomized clinical trials that compared bevacizumab with standard treatment in patients with solid tumors. Cochrane Collaboration's Tool was used for assessing risk-of-bias. RESULTS Thirteen records involving 7201 patients were included in the meta-analysis. There were 42 ILD events in bevacizumab groups and 72 in control groups. In bevacizumab groups, the odds ratio for ILD was 0.62 (95% CI 0.42 to 0.92; p = 0.02), which was a significantly lower incidence than the control. This tendency was shown in targeted therapy groups but not in the cytotoxic agent groups. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that bevacizumab may reduce the incidence of ILD.
