Abstract
Background Lung cancer combined by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (LC-COPD) is a common comorbidity and their interaction with each other poses significant clinical challenges. However, there is a lack of well-established consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of LC-COPD. Methods A panel of experts, comprising specialists in oncology, respiratory medicine, radiology, interventional medicine, and thoracic surgery, was convened. The panel was presented with a comprehensive review of the current evidence pertaining to LC-COPD. After thorough discussions, the panel reached a consensus on 17 recommendations with over 70% agreement in voting to enhance the management of LC-COPD and optimize the care of these patients. Results The 17 statements focused on pathogenic mechanisms (n=2), general strategies (n=4), and clinical application in COPD (n=2) and lung cancer (n=9) were developed and modified. These statements provide guidance on early screening and treatment selection of LC-COPD, the interplay of lung cancer and COPD on treatment, and considerations during treatment. This consensus also emphasizes patient-centered and personalized treatment in the management of LC-COPD. Conclusions The consensus highlights the need for concurrent treatment for both lung cancer and COPD in LC-COPD patients, while being mindful of the mutual influence of the two conditions on treatment and monitoring for adverse reactions.

Creation of an Integrated Clinical Trial Database and Data Sharing for Conducting New Research by the Japan Lung Cancer Society. JTO Clin Res Rep 2022; 3:100317. [PMID: 35498383 PMCID: PMC9048121 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtocrr.2022.100317] [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: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 03/20/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 10/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Although data accumulated in clinical trials have higher accuracy compared with real-world data and are irreplaceably valuable, most previous clinical trial data have been left unused. Methods The Japan Lung Cancer Society (JLCS) asked six clinical trial groups that conducted randomized clinical trials on curative chemoradiation for locally advanced NSCLC to provide data. After obtaining consent from all six groups, data were collected from August 2019 to June 2021. Results A total of eight trials, JCOG9812, JCOG0301, NJLCG0601, OLCSG0007, WJTOG0105, WJOG5008L, SPECTRA, and TORG1018, were included. More than 3000 data items were integrated into 408 items by adjusting their definitions and units. The total number of collected cases was 1288: median age (range), 66 (30-93) years; sex (male/female) 1064/224; pathological type (squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, other NSCLC, and unknown) 517, 629, 138, and 4; and stage IIIA and B, 536 and 752. The median overall survival was 26.0 months, with 2-, 5-, and 10-year survival rates of 53.7%, 24.8%, and 15.2%, respectively, in all enrollments. The median progression-free survival was 9.6 months, with 2-, 5-, and 10-year progression-free survival rates of 23.6%, 14.0%, and 9.4%, respectively. Part of the information in the database has been made available on the JLCS web page, and the JLCS members were provided the right to propose research using the database. Conclusions The integration and sharing of clinical trial data for research purposes was made real by the nonprofit, academic organization, the JLCS. This database will lead to innovative researches and contribute to the improvement of lung cancer treatment and future research.
