Selection of the appropriate treatment for the combination of interstitial lung disease and lung cancer: A retrospective observational study. Medicine (Baltimore) 2024; 103:e37186. [PMID: 38335429 PMCID: PMC10860948 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000037186] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) independently heightens the risk of lung cancer (LC), often necessitating chemoradiotherapy (CRT) due to advanced disease stages. However, CRT may compromise survival through complications such as ILD exacerbation or radiation pneumonitis. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal surgical or nonsurgical treatment approaches for patients with concurrent ILD and LC. Over a 10-year period, a retrospective evaluation was conducted on 647 patients with confirmed diagnoses of LC and ILD from a total of 4541 patients examined in the polyclinic. This assessment included a comprehensive review of demographic, treatment, and survival records. Study groups included those treated for both ILD and LC with surgical treatment (ST), chemotherapy (CT), radiotherapy (RT), or CRT. A control group comprised ILD-only cases. In the whole sample of 647 patients with complete data, the length of stay in hospital and respiratory intensive care unit was significantly shorter in the ST group and longer in the CT group. Significant differences in discharge status (P < .001) were observed, with higher recovery rates in the ST and RT groups. The CT group showed an increased rate of transfer to other centers, in-hospital mortality was determined to be higher in the CRT group, and the control group exhibited no change in discharge. No statistically significant difference was determined between the groups with respect to the 24- and 48-month survival rates (P = .100). Although no disparity was found in 2- and 4-year survival rates, there were seen to be advantages in survival and quality of life with the addition of radiotherapy to regions aligning with surgical margins for LC patients with ILD, evaluated as radiological N0, undergoing wedge resection. This underscores the need for personalized treatment strategies to balance effective cancer control and to minimize ILD-related complications.

Abstract
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially those with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, are at increased risk of developing lung cancer (LC). Pharmacotherapy for advanced LC has dramatically progressed in recent years;however, management of LC with pre-existing ILD (LC-ILD) is challenging due to serious concerns about the risk of acute exacerbation of ILD (AE-ILD). As patients with LC-ILD have been excluded from most prospective clinical trials of advanced LC, optimal pharmacotherapy remains to be elucidated. Although the antitumor activity of first-line platinum-based cytotoxic chemotherapy appears to be similar in advanced LC patients with or without ILD, its impact on the survival of patients with LC-ILD is limited. Immune checkpoint inhibitors may hold promise for long-term survival, but many challenges remain, including safety and appropriate patient selection. Further understanding the predictive factors for AE-ILD after receiving pharmacotherapy in LC-ILD may lead to appropriate patient selection and lower treatment risk. The aim of this review was to summarize the current evidence related to pharmacotherapy for advanced LC-ILD and discuss emerging areas of research. J. Med. Invest. 71 : 9-22, February, 2024.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias are an independent risk factor of lung cancer, and a chemotherapy-induced acute exacerbation is the most common lethal complication in Japanese patients. The safety and efficacy of carboplatin and weekly paclitaxel for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with idiopathic interstitial pneumonias has been previously reported in prospective studies. However, carboplatin + paclitaxel with bevacizumab is currently the standard therapy. We conducted a multicenter, phase II study to confirm the safety and efficacy of carboplatin + weekly paclitaxel + bevacizumab for the treatment of patients with lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced-stage or patients with post-operative recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias were enrolled. Patients received carboplatin (area under the curve: 5.0) and bevacizumab (15 mg/kg) on day 1 and paclitaxel (100 mg/m2) on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 4-week cycle. RESULTS Seventeen patients less than the predetermined number were enrolled and received a median of four treatment cycles (range: 1-6). One patient (5.9%; 95% confidence interval: 0.1-28.7%) had acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia related to the study treatment which improved after corticosteroid treatment. The overall response rate was 52.9%. The median progression-free survival, median survival time, and 1-year survival were 5.7 months, 12.9 months, and 52.9%, respectively. CONCLUSION The addition of bevacizumab to carboplatin and weekly paclitaxel might be safe and effective for the treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias.

Abstract
Background and aim Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is a critical pulmonary toxicity following dose delivery to the lung, and it is usually diagnosed after radiotherapy courses are completed. Because RP may result in a lethal complication, a practical method for detecting early-phase RP is awaited. In this article, we describe our experience through a variety of clinical cases and discuss treatment decisions and lessons we have made and learned. Materials and methods A daily cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan was employed with a lung window setting to detect the early-phase RP during treatment courses. For the past five years, thirty patients were diagnosed with RP, and eight patients were detected during radiotherapy courses on the CBCT images. Our best efforts were made in detecting early ground-glass opacity and early RP on CBCT images prior to symptoms. The eight cases were described in more detail with CBCT or CT images. Results and discussion Initially, RP was detected at 50 Gy or greater. However, more careful CBCT observation resulted in earlier detection at around 40 Gy. Then, a new problem arose whether the treatment should be terminated. It was reported that early RP development was associated with higher-grade complications, and therefore it is preferable to terminate radiotherapy once we detect even early-phase RP. However, termination in the middle of the treatment course may significantly reduce the therapeutic effect. In our experience, patients with favorable clinical status may continue to receive radiotherapy with careful observation of lung parenchyma on CBCT images and clinical data, such as Krebs Von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Conclusion We have shown that early detection of RP may be feasible during radiotherapy courses by daily monitoring of CBCT lung images. Further studies are awaited to proceed.

Chemotherapy versus best supportive care in advanced lung cancer and idiopathic interstitial pneumonias: A retrospective multi-centre cohort study. Respir Investig 2023; 61:284-295. [PMID: 36496345 DOI: 10.1016/j.resinv.2022.10.009] [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: 09/02/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical questions of whether chemotherapy as initial treatment, compared with best supportive care (BSC), improves overall survival (OS) and whether it increases the occurrence risk of acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) in patients with advanced-stage lung cancer and IIP remain inconclusive. This study addresses these issues, given that chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of IIP may be a direct cause of mortality in these patients. METHODS We enrolled 1003 patients from 110 Japanese institutions and collected clinical profiles from 707 and 296 patients in the chemotherapy (men: women, 645:62; mean age, 70.4 ± 6.9 years) and BSC (men: women, 261:35; mean age, 75.2 ± 7.8) groups, respectively. We used propensity score matching to create 222 matched pairs from both groups using patient demographic data (age, sex, smoking status, performance status, history of acute exacerbation of IIP, desaturation on exertion, clinical diagnosis of IIP, high-resolution computed tomography findings, serum fibrotic markers, pulmonary function status, and lung cancer histopathology). Logistic or Cox regression analyses were performed using matched data to assess the effects of chemotherapy on the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP or OS, respectively. RESULTS In the well-matched cohort, chemotherapy improved OS (hazard ratio: 0.629, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.506-0.783, p < 0.0001); however, it involved significant acute exacerbation of IIP (odds ratio: 1.787, 95% CI: 1.026-3.113) compared to BSC. CONCLUSIONS Compared with BSC, chemotherapy can improve OS in patients with advanced-stage lung cancer and IIP; however, it increases the risk of acute exacerbation of IIP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal lung disease implicated as an independent risk factor for lung cancer. However, optimal treatment for advanced lung cancer with IPF remains to be established. We performed a randomised phase 3 trial (J-SONIC) to assess the efficacy and safety of nintedanib plus chemotherapy (experimental arm) compared with chemotherapy alone (standard-of-care arm) for advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with IPF. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve advanced NSCLC patients with IPF were allocated to receive carboplatin (area under the curve of 6 on day 1) plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) (100 mg·m-2 on days 1, 8 and 15) every 3 weeks with or without nintedanib (150 mg twice daily, daily). The primary end-point was exacerbation-free survival (EFS). RESULTS Between May 2017 and February 2020, 243 patients were enrolled. Median EFS was 14.6 months in the nintedanib plus chemotherapy group and 11.8 months in the chemotherapy group (hazard ratio (HR) 0.89, 90% CI 0.67-1.17; p=0.24), whereas median progression-free survival was 6.2 and 5.5 months, respectively (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.50-0.92). Overall survival was improved by nintedanib in patients with nonsquamous histology (HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.40-0.93) and in those at GAP (gender-age-physiology) stage I (HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.38-0.98). Seven (2.9%) out of 240 patients experienced acute exacerbation during study treatment. CONCLUSIONS The primary end-point of the study was not met. However, carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel was found to be effective and tolerable in advanced NSCLC patients with IPF. Moreover, nintedanib in combination with such chemotherapy improved overall survival in patients with nonsquamous histology.

Abstract
Patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially those with pulmonary fibrosis, are at increased risk of developing lung cancer. Management of lung cancer in patients with ILD is particularly challenging. Diagnosis can be complicated by difficulty differentiating lung nodules from areas of focal fibrosis, and percutaneous biopsy approaches confer an increased risk of complications in those with pulmonary fibrosis. Lung cancer treatment in these patients pose several specific considerations. The degree of lung function impairment may preclude lobectomy or surgical resection of any type. Surgical resection can trigger an acute exacerbation of the underlying ILD. The presence of ILD confers an increased risk of pneumonitis with radiotherapy, and many of the systemic therapies also carry an increased risk of pneumonitis in this population. The safety of immunotherapy in the setting of ILD remains to be fully elucidated and concerns remain as to triggering pneumonitis. The purpose of this review is to summarize the evidence regarding consideration for tissue diagnosis, chemotherapy and immunotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery, in this patient population and discuss emerging areas of research. We also propose a multidisciplinary approach and practical considerations for monitoring for ILD progression during lung cancer treatment.

Abstract
Background The prognosis of lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor, and acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD can occur during chemotherapy as a fatal adverse event. Although AE‐ILD development is correlated with various factors, no reports are investigating the disease activity of lung cancer at the time of AE‐ILD development. Methods All consecutive lung cancer patients with ILD who developed chemotherapy‐related AE‐ILD within 28 days after the last administration of cytotoxic chemotherapy between 2011 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Among 206 lung cancer patients with ILD who were treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy, 30 patients were included. The median age was 72 years and all patients were men with smoking history. Usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) and non‐UIP patterns of ILD was observed in 17 and 13 patients. Most of AE‐ILD occurred during second‐ or later‐line (22/30, 73.3%) and developed within first or second courses during chemotherapy (19/30, 63.3%). Regarding tumor response to chemotherapy at AE‐ILD development, majority of patients (18 patients, 60.0%) experienced progressive disease and only one patient (3.3%) experienced a partial response. Notably, 27 patients (90.0%) did not exhibit any tumor shrinkage of the thoracic lesions. Conclusion Lung cancer was uncontrolled with cytotoxic chemotherapy at the time of AE‐ILD development. Although AE‐ILD during chemotherapy has been generally discussed in terms of drug‐specific adverse effects, uncontrolled lung cancer may be also correlated with AE‐ILD development.

Abstract
Introduction: Although recent advances in chemotherapy for lung cancer are remarkable, most clinical trials have excluded patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) due to the concern of developing acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD. Hence, accumulating original evidence of cancer treatment for this population is important. Methods: Between 2016 and 2020, a prospective observational study was conducted across 11 Japanese hospitals. Patients with chemotherapy-naïve, inoperable, advanced lung cancer with ILD were included. The primary outcome was the frequency of AE-ILD after registration; the secondary outcomes were the risk factor of AE-ILD and the efficacy of chemotherapy. Results: Among 124 patients enrolled, 109 patients who received chemotherapy were analyzed. The median age was 72 years, and the majority showed usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP)/probable UIP pattern upon chest computed tomography. The median percent-predicted forced vital capacity (%FVC) was 81% (interquartile range: 66–95%). After registration, 23 patients (21.1%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 14.4–29.7%) developed AE-ILD. The logistic analysis revealed that lower %FVC slightly but significantly increased the risk of AE-ILD (odds ratio per 10% decrease: 1.27; 95% CI: > 1.00–1.62). Overall response rates/median overall survival times in non-small-cell lung cancer and small-cell lung cancer for the first-line chemotherapy were 41% (95% CI: 31–53)/8.9 months (95% CI: 7.6–11.8) and 91% (95% CI: 76–98)/12.2 months (95% CI: 9.2–14.5), respectively. Conclusion: AE-ILD during chemotherapy is a frequent complication among patients with lung cancer with ILD, particularly those with lower %FVC. Conversely, even in this population, passable treatment response can be expected.

Abstract
Acute exacerbation is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Although the real nature of it is still not clear and there is no proven effective therapy, progress has been made since the consensus definition and diagnostic criteria were proposed. The trial results of several new innovative therapies in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis have suggested a potential for benefit in acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, leading to double blind randomized clinical trials in this area. This article reviews the present knowledge on acute exacerbation of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, focusing on the triggering factors and treatment.

18F-FDG PET/CT predicts acute exacerbation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis after thoracic surgery. BMC Pulm Med 2021; 21:294. [PMID: 34530787 PMCID: PMC8447514 DOI: 10.1186/s12890-021-01659-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 09/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Acute exacerbation (AE) is the most lethal postoperative complication in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF); however, prediction before surgery is difficult. We investigated the role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) in predicting postoperative AE in IPF. Method Clinical data of 48 IPF patients who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT before thoracic surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Mean and maximal standardized uptake values (SUVmean and SUVmax, respectively) were measured in the fibrotic area. Additionally, adjusted values-SUV ratio (SUVR, defined as SUVmax-to-liver SUVmean ratio), tissue fraction-corrected SUVmean (SUVmeanTF), and SUVR (SUVRTF)-were calculated. Results The mean age of the subjects was 67.8 years and 91.7% were male. After thoracic surgery, 21 (43.8%) patients experienced postoperative complications including prolonged air leakage (29.2%), death (14.6%), and AE (12.5%) within 30 days. Patients who experienced AE showed higher SUVmax, SUVR, SUVmeanTF, and SUVRTF than those who did not, but other clinical parameters were not different between patients with and without AE. The SUV parameters did not differ for other complications. The SUVR (odds ratio [OR] 29.262; P = 0.030), SUVmeanTF (OR 3.709; P = 0.041) and SUVRTF (OR 20.592; P = 0.017) were significant predicting factors for postoperative AE following a multivariate logistic regression analysis. On receiver operating characteristics curve analysis, SUVRTF had the largest area under the curve (0.806, P = 0.007) for predicting postoperative AE among SUV parameters. Conclusions Our findings suggest that 18F-FDG PET/CT may be useful in predicting postoperative AE in IPF patients and among SUVs, SUVRTF is the best parameter for predicting postoperative AE in IPF patients.

Efficacy and Safety of Carbon-Ion Radiotherapy for Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer with Coexisting Interstitial Lung Disease. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13164204. [PMID: 34439358 PMCID: PMC8391416 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13164204] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/18/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a risk factor for lung cancer, but the treatment options are often limited because of concerns that ILD may worsen with treatment. In this study, we analyzed whether the presence or absence of ILD affects the outcome of carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) for clinical stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). For all cases, CT and clinical data were reviewed by a respiratory physician to determine the presence of ILD. Overall survival and disease-specific survival were lower in patients with ILD than in patients without ILD. There was no significant difference between the ILD group and the non-ILD group with respect to safety. CIRT was not associated with significantly more side-effects in patients with ILD than in patients without ILD. Coexisting ILD was a poor prognostic factor with respect to CIRT for clinical stage I lung cancer, as reported for other treatment methods. Abstract Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a risk factor both for the development and treatment failure of lung cancer. In this retrospective study, we analyzed the outcome of carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) in 124 patients with clinical stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), of whom 26 (21%) had radiological signs of pre-existing ILD. ILD was diagnosed retrospectively by a pulmonologist based on critical review of CT-scans. Ninety-eight patients were assigned to the non-ILD group and 26 patients (21.0%) to the ILD group. There were significant differences in pre-treatment KL-6 values between the two groups. The three year overall survival and cause-specific survival rates were 83.2% and 90.7%, respectively, in the non-ILD group, and 59.7% and 59.7%, respectively, in the ILD group (between-group differences, p = 0.002 and p < 0.001). Radiation pneumonitis worse than Grade 2 was observed in three patients (3.0%) in the non-ILD group and two patients (7.6%) in the ILD group (p = 0.29). There were no cases of acute exacerbation in the ILD group. CIRT for stage I NSCLC was as safe in the ILD group as in the non-ILD group. Coexisting ILD was a poor prognostic factor in CIRT for clinical stage I lung cancer.

Pre-existing interstitial lung disease is associated with onset of nivolumab-induced pneumonitis in patients with solid tumors: a retrospective analysis. BMC Cancer 2021; 21:924. [PMID: 34399710 PMCID: PMC8369733 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-021-08661-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Nivolumab, an anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, has shown survival benefit in clinical trials of various malignant tumors. Nivolumab-induced pneumonitis is major immune-related adverse event (irAE) that is occasionally serious and life-threatening. The aim of this study was to examine the association between pre-existing interstitial lung disease (ILD) on chest computed tomography (CT) and nivolumab-induced pneumonitis among different types of solid tumors. Methods We retrospectively collected the clinical data of 311 patients who were diagnosed with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), head and neck cancer (HNC), or gastric cancer (GC), and treated with nivolumab monotherapy. Patients who underwent chest CT immediately before starting nivolumab without previous thoracic radiotherapy or other immune checkpoint inhibitors were eligible. We collected baseline patient characteristics and assessed pre-existing ILD on baseline chest CT. Results Finally, 188 patients were included in the analysis: 96 patients with NSCLC, 43 patients with HNC, and 49 patients with GC. NSCLC patients had a significantly higher rate of pre-existing ILD compared with HNC/GC patients (P = 0.047). Nivolumab-induced pneumonitis occurred in 11.7% (22 of 188), including 14.6% (14 of 96) of NSCLC, and 8.7% (8 of 92) of HNC/GC. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that pre-existing ILD (odds ratio, 5.92; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.07–18.54, P = 0.0008) and male sex (odds ratio, 5.58; 95% CI, 1.01–104.40, P = 0.049) significantly increased the risk of nivolumab-induced pneumonitis. Conclusion Our results indicated that pre-existing ILD and male sex are risk factors for nivolumab-induced pneumonitis in solid tumors.

Abstract
Of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), 5-10% have interstitial pneumonia (IP) at the time of diagnosis. To avoid fatal acute exacerbations of pre-existing IP, appropriate patient selection and low-risk treatment choices are warranted. Risk factors for acute exacerbation of pre-existing IP with cytotoxic drugs include honeycomb lungs on computed tomography (CT) and low forced vital capacity, but risk factors with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have not been fully investigated. For advanced or recurrent NSCLC with comorbid IP, carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel is the standard of care for first-line treatment, but second-line or later treatment has not been established. ICI holds great promise for long-term survival, but many challenges remain, including safety and appropriate patient selection. Since the indications for pharmacotherapy and radiotherapy for NSCLC with comorbid IP are quite limited, surgical resection should be considered as much as possible for patients with operable stages. A scoring system has been reported to predict the risk of postoperative acute exacerbation of pre-existing IP, but perioperative treatment has not been established. In the future, it is necessary to accumulate more cases and conduct further research, not only in Japan but also worldwide.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury is a fatal complication in patients with lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD). We aimed to evaluate the association between hyperglycemia and this form of lung injury in patients with lung cancer concomitant with ILD. METHODS From 1147 patients with advanced lung cancer, we retrospectively enrolled 98 patients with ILD whose hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels were measured, and investigated the association between HbA1c levels and cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury. In 73 patients whose serum samples were retained, we measured serum levels of advanced glycation end products (AGE) and assessed the association of AGE levels with HbA1c levels and cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury. RESULTS The incidence of cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury was significantly higher in patients with HbA1c levels ≥ 5.8% than in those with HbA1c levels < 5.8%, but not in those with HbA1c levels ≥ 6.5% than in those with HbA1c levels < 6.5%. The multivariate logistic regression model revealed that HbA1c level ≥ 5.8% was a significant risk factor for this complication [odds ratio 3.178 (95% confidence interval 1.057-9.556), P = 0.040]. In addition, serum AGE levels were significantly higher in patients with HbA1c levels ≥ 5.8% than in those with HbA1c levels < 5.8% [median (interquartile range); 0.129 (0.023-0.290) and 0.474 (0.213-1.109) μg/mL, P = 0.001]. CONCLUSION Glucose intolerance (e.g., HbA1c level ≥ 5.8%) may be a risk factor of cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury, which might be associated with elevated AGE production due to hyperglycemia.

Glasgow prognostic score for prediction of chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbation interstitial lung disease in patients with small cell lung cancer. Thorac Cancer 2021; 12:1681-1689. [PMID: 33939332 PMCID: PMC8169307 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.13900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 02/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/05/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Predicting the incidence of chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease (AE-ILD) in patients with lung cancer is important because AE-ILD confers a poor prognosis. The Glasgow prognostic score (GPS), which is an inflammation-based index composed of serum levels of C-reactive protein and albumin, predicts prognosis in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) without ILD. In this study, we investigated AE-ILD and survival outcome based on the GPS in patients with ILD associated with SCLC who were receiving chemotherapy. METHODS Medical records of patients who received platinum-based first-line chemotherapy between June 2010 and May 2019 were retrospectively reviewed to compare the incidence of AE-ILD and overall survival (OS) between GPS 0, 1, and 2. RESULTS Among our cohort of 31 patients, six (19.3%) experienced chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD. The AE-ILD incidence increased from 9.5% to 25.0% and 50.0% with increase in GPS of 0, 1, and 2, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed remarkable associations between GPS 2 and both AE-ILD (odds ratio for GPS 2, 18.69; p = 0.046) and prognosis (hazard ratio of GPS 2, 13.52; p = 0.002). Furthermore, median OS in the GPS 0, 1, and 2 groups was 16.2, 9.8, and 7.1 months, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that GPS 2 is both a predictor of risk of chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and a prognostic indicator in patients with ILD associated with SCLC. We propose that GPS may be used as a guide to distinguish chemotherapy-tolerant patients from those at high risk of AE-ILD.

Abstract
Background and Objective Interstitial lung disease with lung cancer (ILD-LC) is rare and its management has not been fully described. This study aimed to investigate the management and prognosis of ILD-LC patients in China. Methods The present analysis is a retrospective real-world cohort study. Clinical data of ILD-LC patients were obtained from 3 hospitals in China. The overall survival (OS) of patients was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed. Results One hundred eighty-four ILD-LC patients included were biased toward male (85.3%), smokers (75.5%), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) (58.2%) patients with comorbidities (67.9%) and ECOG-PS score of 1 (65.2%). Most patients were advanced peripheral non-small cell lung cancer. The initial anti-cancer regimen for ILD-LC is mainly chemotherapy, and patients with early-stage LC prefer surgery. In the anti-cancer cohort, the number of ILD-LC patients who underwent the 2nd and 3rd or more anti-cancer regimens were 78 (55.7%) and 32 (22.8%), respectively. In the non-anticancer cohort, the median OS was 3.5 months. In the early-stage cohort, the median OS was 14.2 months in the systematic therapy group; however, the median OS was not reached in the surgery group. In the advanced-stage cohort with systematic therapy, the median OS was 7.2 months. Interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and anti-angiogenesis were associated with OS in the univariate analysis, whereas anti-angiogenesis was an independent protective factor for advanced LC with ILD. Conclusion Patients with ILD-LC have very poor prognosis. Appropriate anti-tumor treatment can prolong the survival time of patients who can tolerate it. Targeted therapy and immunotherapy are alternative treatments for LC patients with mild ILD. For ILD patients with advanced LC, antiangiogenic regimens significantly improve the prognosis of the disease.

Abstract
A 62-year-old woman with edema and color changes in her fingers underwent computed tomography (CT); slight interstitial changes were detected in the lungs with multiple tumors in the anterior and hilar region of the liver. Based on the blood test findings, she was diagnosed with interstitial pneumonia associated with systemic sclerosis. Ultrasound-guided biopsy from the hepatic hilar lymph node revealed poorly differentiated serous adenocarcinoma cells. High serum CA-125 levels suggested primary peritoneal serous carcinoma (PPSC). Owing to increased interstitial shadows on chest CT images and worsening respiratory distress, intravenous cyclophosphamide and oral prednisolone treatment was started. The skin-related symptoms, respiratory distress, and interstitial shadows improved, and the tumor size reduced. Eighteen months later, the patient has had no exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia, and the PPSC is well controlled.

Glasgow Prognostic Score predicts chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbation-interstitial lung disease in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Thorac Cancer 2021; 12:667-675. [PMID: 33480111 PMCID: PMC7919129 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.13792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/02/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Interstitial lung disease (ILD) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) worsens the prognosis for overall survival (OS) due to chemotherapy-triggered acute exacerbation (AE)-ILD. The Glasgow Prognostic Score (GPS), which is based on serum C-reactive protein and albumin levels, has been suggested as a reliable prognostic tool for mortality in cancer patients, including NSCLC. In this study, we investigated whether GPS is a predictor for chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and pre-existing ILD. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review on 56 NSCLC and ILD patients at our hospital who received platinum agent-based treatment as first-line chemotherapy between June 2010 and May 2019. We categorized these patients according to their GPS (0-2) and compared the incidence of chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS. RESULTS The GPS 0, 1, and 2 groups included 31, 16, and nine patients, respectively, out of 56. A total of 12 (21.4%) patients showed chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD. The median OS was at 11.5 months (95% confidence interval: 8.0-15.1). The incidence of chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD within the first year of chemotherapy in the GPS 0, 1, and 2 groups was three (9.6%), four (25.0%), and five (55.5%), and the median OS time was 16.9, 9.8 and 7.6 months, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses indicated that only GPS 2 could predict both chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS GPS assessment of patients with NSCLC and pre-existing ILD is a valuable prognostic tool for predicting chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and OS. KEY POINTS SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS OF THE STUDY: We found that GPS 2 was an independent risk factor for chemotherapy-triggered AE-ILD and prognosis in patients with ILD associated with NSCLC. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS GPS may potentially enable the discrimination of patients tolerant of chemotherapy from those at an increased risk of AE-ILD and predict the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and ILD receiving chemotherapy.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a chronic and progressive lung disease with poor prognosis, presents with acute exacerbation. Pathophysiology and treatments for this acute exacerbation, and an appropriate animal model to perform such examinations, have not established yet. We presented a rat model for assessing acute exacerbation in cases of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Wistar rats were intratracheally administered bleomycin (3 mg/kg) to induce pulmonary fibrosis. After 7 days, lipopolysaccharide (0, 0.05, or 0.15 mg/kg) was administered. In the bleomycin or lipopolysaccharide group, there were almost no change in the oxygen partial pressure, arterial blood gas (PaO2), plasma nitrite/nitrate, nitric oxide synthase, and lung nitrotyrosine levels. In the bleomycin (+)/lipopolysaccharide (+) groups, these three indicators deteriorated significantly. The plasma nitrite/nitrate and PaO2 levels were significantly correlated in the bleomycin (+) groups (r = 0.758). Although lung fibrosis was not different with or without lipopolysaccharide in the bleomycin (+) groups, macrophage infiltration was marked in the bleomycin (+)/lipopolysaccharide (+) group. There were many NOS2-positive macrophages, and the PaO2 levels decrease may be induced by the nitric oxide production of macrophages in the lung. This model may mimic the pathophysiological changes in cases of acute exacerbation during idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in humans.

Abstract
Background Non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been reported to develop in patients with interstitial pneumonia (IP); however, clinical, radiological, and pathological features remain to be elucidated. Methods We retrieved the records of 120 consecutive NSCLC patients associated with IP who underwent surgery at Toranomon Hospital between June 2011 and May 2017. We classified the patients into three groups according to NSCLC location using high-resolution computed tomography: group A, within a fibrotic shadow and/or at the interface of a fibrotic shadow and normal lung; group B, within emphysematous tissue and/or at the interface of emphysematous tissue and normal lung; and group C, within normal lung. In 64 patients, programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) status was assessed with immunohistostaining. Results Most of the patients (89; 70%) were classified as group A. This group tended to have squamous cell carcinoma with the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP). These cancers were located mainly in the lower lobes and seven of the eight postoperative acute exacerbations (pAE) of IP developed in this group. NSCLC in the group B were mainly squamous cell carcinomas located in the upper lobes. No patient with PD-L1 negative was classified into group B. None of the patients in group C showed UIP. and most of the cancers were adenocarcinoma. The frequency of epidermal growth factor receptor mutation-positive NSCLC was the highest in this group. Conclusions The three groups each showed characteristic features in terms of tumor location, histopathology, PD-L1 expression, and frequency of pAEof IP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical features of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) have not been fully elucidated. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data on 366 patients with pathologically confirmed SCLC who had been treated with chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy were retrospectively analyzed to investigate the clinical features of SCLC with IPF. RESULTS A total of 97 out of the 366 patients were diagnosed with interstitial lung disease (ILD), and 75 of them had IPF. For both the limited disease (LD) and extensive disease (ED) stages, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were significantly shorter in the patients with IPF compared with non-ILD patients. A multivariate analysis showed that poor performance status, ED stage, and the presence of IPF were associated with shorter OS. The response rate to first-line therapy was significantly lower in patients with IPF compared with the non-ILD patients. The rate of patients receiving fewer than three cycles of first-line chemotherapy was higher in patients with IPF, which was a factor of poor survival. In LD-stage patients with IPF, chemoradiotherapy was associated with longer PFS and OS compared with chemotherapy only. CONCLUSION In patients with SCLC, the presence of IPF was associated with a lower response rate as well as shorter PFS and shorter OS. There are some cases that are suitable for chemoradiotherapy, even among patients with IPF.The reviews of this paper are available via the supplemental material section.

Abstract
Background: Lung cancer is a well-known comorbidity of interstitial lung disease (ILD), and the actual efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (NSCLC-ILD) have not been determined. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of chemotherapy for patients with NSCLC-ILD. Methods: We searched related studies from the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase. The endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), 1-year overall survival rate (1-yOS rate), and first-line chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease rate (AE-ILD rate). Results: We included 21 studies involving 684 patients in our analysis. The pooled ORR was 43% (95% CI: 38.0–49.0%), and the pooled DCR was 80.0% (95% CI: 75.7–83.9%). The modified overall 1-yOS rate was 33.0% (95% CI: 29.0–37.0%). The pooled AE-ILD rate was 8.07% (95% CI: 6.12–10.26%). Subgroup analysis revealed a trend for lower AE-ILD rate (4.98%; 95% CI: 2.44–8.37%) in patients with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel. Lung function and AE-ILD may be associated with the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD. Conclusions: First-line chemotherapy is effective in patients with NSCLC-ILD, and the AE-ILD rate is acceptable, but the prognosis is limited. Future randomized controlled trials are needed to explore more appropriate treatment regimens to improve the prognosis of patients with NSCLC-ILD.

Serum high-mobility group box 1 as a predictive marker for cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury in patients with lung cancer and interstitial lung disease. Respir Med 2020; 172:106131. [PMID: 32911136 DOI: 10.1016/j.rmed.2020.106131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2020] [Revised: 08/10/2020] [Accepted: 08/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) is a pro-inflammatory protein, that is associated with tumorigenesis, interstitial lung disease (ILD), and acute lung injury. Chemotherapy-induced lung injury is a common and serious adverse event in patients with lung cancer and ILD, but its pathogenesis and predictive biomarkers are not known. This study aimed to investigate the predictive potential of serum HMGB1 levels for cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury in these patients. METHODS From 743 patients with advanced lung cancer, we enrolled 83 consecutive patients with ILD and background-matched 83 patients without ILD. Additionally, 83 healthy subjects were included. After measuring baseline levels of serum HMGB1 in three groups, we evaluated the predictive values of baseline HMGB1 levels for cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury in patients with lung cancer and ILD. RESULTS Higher levels of serum HMGB1 were independently associated with higher tumor burden, as assessed by total tumor size, and the presence of ILD. Twenty-five (30.1%) of patients with lung cancer and ILD experienced cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury within one year. Univariate Cox proportional hazards model showed that higher levels of HMGB1 and higher tumor burden were associated with disease onset. Moreover, multivariate analysis revealed that only HMGB1 was independently associated with this severe complication in patients with lung cancer and ILD. CONCLUSIONS HMGB1 is a potential predictive blood biomarker for cytotoxic chemotherapy-induced lung injury in patients with lung cancer and ILD. This study also suggests a potential pathogenesis of this serious adverse event that tumor- and ILD-derived HMGB1 accelerates lung injury.

Acute exacerbation of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias related to chemotherapy for lung cancer: nationwide surveillance in Japan. ERJ Open Res 2020; 6:00184-2019. [PMID: 32494570 PMCID: PMC7248335 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00184-2019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2019] [Accepted: 03/07/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Chemotherapy-induced acute exacerbation (AEx) of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) seriously compromises the success of treatment of Japanese lung cancer patients. Here, we conducted a nationwide surveillance to clarify the risk of AEx and compare it with the survival benefit of chemotherapy for this population. Methods Advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients with IIPs were retrospectively analysed. For the surveillance of first-line chemotherapy in 2009, we gathered clinical data from 396 patients who received chemotherapy at 19 institutions between January 1990 and July 2009. In a consecutive retrospective study in 2012, we analysed data from 278 patients from 17 institutions who received second-line chemotherapy between April 2002 and March 2012. Results Of the 396 patients analysed, 13.1% developed chemotherapy-related AEx. Combination chemotherapies of carboplatin plus paclitaxel (CP) or carboplatin plus etoposide (CE) were frequently used as first-line treatments. The lowest incidence of AEx was 3.7% in CE, followed by 8.6% in CP. In the retrospective study, 16.2% of the 278 patients developed a second-line chemotherapy-related AEx. The overall response rate by second-line chemotherapy was 7.4% in NSCLC and 25.7% in SCLC. The median overall survival from second-line and first-line chemotherapy was 8.0 and 14.3 months in NSCLC, and 8.7 and 16.0 months in SCLC, respectively. Conclusion Combination chemotherapies consisting of CP or CE are candidates for standard first-line treatments for patients with advanced lung cancer accompanied by IIP. Second-line chemotherapy should be considered for patients remaining fit enough to receive it. The Japanese are at high risk of acute exacerbation of IPF. Therefore, chemotherapy for Japanese lung cancer patients with IIPs is challenging. However, appropriate chemotherapy may give a survival benefit, despite the risk of acute deterioration of IIPs.http://bit.ly/3cROaCy

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Identifying risk factors for cancer treatment-related acute exacerbations (AEs) of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) in patients with lung cancer. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed clinical records of 98 patients with concurrent lung cancer and IIPs diagnosed and treated at the Sapporo Medical University Hospital from January 2010 to December 2014. RESULTS Of the 98 patients with concurrent lung cancer and IIPs, 14 patients (14.3%) had AEs. A total of 10 patients died. The univariate analysis revealed that the patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) or usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) patterns on chest computed tomography (CT) had significantly higher rates of AE than those with non-IPF or non-UIP patterns, respectively. Further, those with a reduced percentage of forced vital capacity (%FVC) predictive values or elevated Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) presented significantly higher rates of AE. Our multivariate analysis identified that UIP pattern on chest CT and each 10% decrease in %FVC were significant independent risk factors for AEs. Of the 14 patients who experienced AEs, 10 cases were associated with cancer treatment. The treatment-specific incidences were 3/40 (7.5%) for surgery, 5/50 (10.0%) for chemotherapy, and 2/26 (7.7%) for radiation therapy. After comparing the AE incidences in 55 cases receiving one treatment (monotherapy group) and in 29 cases receiving two types of treatment or more (multitherapy group), we found no significant differences. CONCLUSIONS Chest CT UIP patterns and reduced %FVC are independent risk factors for AE. Moreover, AE incidence did not increase in the multitherapy group compared with the monotherapy group.

Abstract
Systemic therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has dramatically changed in the latest 15 years. Molecular-targeted therapy has brought about an era of precision medicine, and immune checkpoint inhibitors have brought hope for a cure for advanced NSCLC. In the wake of this remarkable advancement, lung cancer with comorbid interstitial pneumonia (IP) has been completely left behind, as most clinical trials exclude patients with comorbid IP. IP, especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), is often accompanied by lung cancer, and acute exacerbation can develop during various cancer therapies, including surgery, radiotherapy and pharmacotherapy. In this review, we focus on the clinical questions concerning pharmacotherapy in cases of advanced lung cancer with comorbid IP and discuss what we can do with the currently available data.

Predictive value of 18F-FDG PET/CT for acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease in patients with lung cancer and interstitial lung disease treated with chemotherapy. Int J Clin Oncol 2019; 25:681-690. [PMID: 31781994 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-019-01584-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2019] [Accepted: 11/19/2019] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined whether fluorine-18 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) performed before chemotherapy could predict the onset of acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease (AE-ILD) in patients with lung cancer and ILD treated with chemotherapy. METHODS Thirty-three patients with lung cancer and ILD who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT and were treated with chemotherapy at Kumamoto University Hospital between April 2006 and March 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of interstitial lesions was measured to quantify the background ILD activity. A prediction model of AE-ILD was developed using logistic regression analyses for the SUVmax, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses were conducted. RESULTS Among the 33 patients, 7 experienced AE-ILD. The SUVmax of contralateral interstitial lesions was significantly higher in patients with vs. without AE-ILD (median SUVmax: 2.220 vs. 1.795, P = 0.025). Univariable logistic regression analyses showed that the SUVmax of contralateral interstitial lesions trended towards being significantly associated with the onset of AE-ILD [odds ratio: 8.683, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.88-85.83, P = 0.064]. The area under the ROC curve of the SUVmax for predicting AE-ILD was 0.780 (95% CI 0.579-0.982, P = 0.025). The optimal cut-off value for SUVmax was 2.005, with sensitivity and specificity values of 0.857 and 0.769, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The SUVmax of contralateral interstitial lesions in 18F-FDG PET/CT images might be useful for predicting the onset of AE-ILD in patients with lung cancer and ILD treated with chemotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the efficacy and feasibility of perioperative pirfenidone treatment (PPT) in lung cancer patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). METHODS The subjects of this retrospective review were 100 patients diagnosed with IPF, who underwent surgical resection for primary lung cancer between January 2011 and April 2018 at our institution. We compared the clinical outcomes of patients treated with pirfenidone (PPT group; n = 28) and those of patients not treated with pirfenidone (non-PPT group; n = 72). RESULTS The Japanese Association for Chest Surgery (JACS) risk score was significantly higher in the PPT group (p = 0.020, 10.9 vs. 9.4); therefore, we subdivided the groups based on JACS risk score. In the low-risk group, the incidence of postoperative acute exacerbation (AE) both within the postoperative day (POD) 30 and 90 was 0.0% (0/6) and 6.5% (2/31) in the PPT and non-PPT groups, respectively (p = 0.522). In the intermediate/high-risk group, the incidence of postoperative AE was 4.5% (1/22) and 19.5% (8/41) within POD 30 (p = 0.106) and 4.5% (1/22) and 24.4% (10/41) within POD 90 (p = 0.048) in the PPT and non-PPT groups, respectively. No serious pirfenidone-related complications were observed. CONCLUSIONS Based on our findings, PPT is an effective and feasible prophylactic treatment to reduce postoperative AE.

Abstract
The prognosis of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor, and 5%‐20% of those receiving chemotherapy experience ILD exacerbation. To evaluate the safety and efficacy of nab‐paclitaxel plus carboplatin for NSCLC patients with ILD, we undertook a multicenter phase II study. Chemotherapy‐naïve patients with advanced NSCLC and mild or moderate ILD received nab‐paclitaxel (100 mg/m2, days 1, 8, and 15) plus carboplatin (area under the curve = 6, day 1) every 3 weeks for 4 cycles (maximum, 6 cycles). Interstitial lung diseases were diagnosed based on criteria for fibrosing interstitial pneumonia. The primary endpoint was the prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD 28 days after completion of protocol treatment. Secondary endpoints were response rate, progression‐free survival, overall survival, prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD, and toxicity. Ninety‐four patients were enrolled, and 92 patients received any protocol treatment. Median age was 70 years, and 58% had nonsquamous histology. In the primary analysis, the prevalence of exacerbation‐free ILD 28 days after protocol treatment was 95.7% (88/92; 90% confidence interval, 90.3‐98.5), which met the primary endpoint. Response rate was 51% (95% confidence interval, 40%‐62%). At the time of data cut‐off, median progression‐free survival was 6.2 months, and median overall survival was 15.4 months. The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were neutropenia (75%), leukopenia (53%), anemia (48%), and thrombocytopenia (20%). Two treatment‐related deaths (1 each of pulmonary infection and ILD exacerbation) were observed. This study showed that a combination of nab‐paclitaxel with carboplatin was tolerable in NSCLC patients with mild or moderate ILD in terms of safety. This study is registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN) Clinical Trial Registry (UMIN 000012989).

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with concomitant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) are excluded from most clinical chemotherapy trials because of the high risk of exacerbating the latter condition. This study prospectively investigated the efficacy and safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) in combination with carboplatin in patients with both advanced NSCLC and ILD. PATIENTS AND METHODS The enrolled patients had treatment-naïve, advanced NSCLC with ILD. Patients received 100 mg/m2nab-paclitaxel weekly and carboplatin at an area under the concentration-time curve of 6 once every 3 weeks for 4-6 cycles. The primary endpoint was the overall response rate (ORR); secondary endpoints included toxicity, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Thirty-six patients were enrolled between April 2014 and September 2017. Sixteen patients (44.4%) had adenocarcinoma, 15 (41.7%) had squamous cell carcinoma (Sq), and 5 (13.9%) had non-small cell carcinoma. The median number of cycles administered were 4 (range: 1-6). The ORR was 55.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 39.6-70.5). The median PFS and OS were 5.3 months (95% CI: 3.9-8.2) and 15.4 months (95% CI: 9.4-18.7), respectively. A greater proportion of patients with Sq experienced improvements than did those with non-Sq: ORRs, 66.7% (95% CI: 41.7-84.8) vs. 47.6% (95% CI: 28.3-67.6) (P = 0.254); median PFS, 8.2 months (95% CI: 4.0-10.2) vs. 4.1 months (95% CI: 3.3-5.4) (HR, 0.60 [95% CI, 0.30-1.20]; P = 0.15); and median OS, 16.8 months (95% CI: 9.8-not reached) vs. 11.9 months (95% CI: 7.3-17.4) (HR, 0.56 [95% CI, 0.24-1.28]; P = 0.17). Two patients (5.6%) experienced grade ≥2 pneumonitis and 1 patient (2.8%) died. CONCLUSION Weekly nab-paclitaxel combined with carboplatin showed favorable efficacy with acceptable toxicity in patients with both advanced NSCLC and ILD.

Abstract
Dramatic progress in targeted therapy and immunotherapy has been changing clinical practices in lung cancer. With the accumulation of clinical practice, it has become clear that pre-existing interstitial pneumonia (IP) could be a risk factor for drug-induced lung injury, which has enhanced awareness regarding the difficulty in treating lung cancer with comorbid IP. Unfortunately, there is only low-grade evidence in the field of lung cancer with comorbid IP, because almost all clinical trials exclude such patients. There have been very few specialized clinical trials for patients with lung cancer and underlying IPs thus far. Therefore, it is necessary to treat such cases empirically or to give up on the treatment itself. Considering these circumstances, establishing how to treat lung cancer with comorbid IP is an urgent issue. This paper is a summary of the official statement reported by the Diffuse Lung Disease/Thoracic Oncology Assembly and the Japanese Respiratory Society (JRS) in 2017, which attempts to approach lung cancer with comorbid IP systematically.

Weekly paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer complicated by idiopathic interstitial pneumonias: a single-arm phase II study. Int J Clin Oncol 2019; 24:1543-1548. [PMID: 31352631 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-019-01516-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2018] [Accepted: 07/20/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) are associated with increased risk of lung cancer. In Japan, acute exaberation of IIPs induced by anticancer treatment is a critical issue. For this reason, there is limited available evidence regarding the optimal treatment approach for lung cancer patients complicated with IIPs. Our previous prospective pilot study demonstrated the safety and efficacy of weekly paclitaxel in combination with carboplatin for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with IIPs. The current study was conducted to confirm the results of the same combination therapy used in a larger patient population. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve patients with advanced stage or post-operative recurrent NSCLC patients complicated by IIPs were enrolled. Patients received paclitaxel (100 mg/m2) on days 1, 8, and 15, and carboplatin (AUC 5.0) once every 4 weeks. RESULTS Thirty-three of 35 enrolled patients were evaluable for analysis and received a median of four treatment cycles (range 1-6). Four patients (12.1%; 95% confidence interval 3.4-28.2%) had acute exacerbation (AEx)-related IIPs to the study treatment. However, no fatalities due to AEx were observed. The overall response was 69.7%. The median progression-free survival, median survival time, and 1-year survival were 6.3 months, 19.8 months, and 55.4%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The efficacy of carboplatin plus weekly paclitaxel treatment for advanced NSCLC patients with IIPs was comparable to that of conventional chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients without IIPs. Moreover, the primary endpoint was set to the frequency of treatment-related acute exacerbation, and the primary endpoint was met. These results suggest that patients with advanced NSCLC complicated by IIPs may benefit from this combination chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonia (AE-IP) is a serious complication of pulmonary surgery in patients with IP. However, little is known about AE-IP after non-pulmonary surgery. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of AE-IP after non-pulmonary surgery and identify its risk factors. METHODS One hundred and fifty-one patients with IP who underwent pulmonary surgery and 291 who underwent non-pulmonary surgery were retrospectively investigated. RESULTS AE-IP developed in 5 (3.3%) of the 151 patients in the pulmonary surgery group and 4 (1.4%) of the 291 in the non-pulmonary surgery group; the difference was not statistically significant. A logistic regression model showed that serum C-reactive protein (CRP) was a predictor of AE-IP in the non-pulmonary surgery group (odds ratio 1.187, 95% confidence interval 1.073-1.344, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to compare the frequency of AE-IP after pulmonary surgery with that after non-pulmonary surgery performed under the same conditions. The results suggest that the frequency of AE-IP after non-pulmonary surgery is similar to that after pulmonary surgery. A high preoperative C-reactive protein level is a potential risk factor for AE-IP after non-pulmonary surgery.

Stereotactic body radiotherapy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and interstitial pneumonia: a review. Int J Clin Oncol 2019; 24:899-909.

Abstract
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) can yield excellent local tumor control, as well as survival benefit comparable to that of surgery for early-stage lung cancer. However, in terms of toxicity, SBRT might lead to fatal radiation pneumonitis. Lung diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and interstitial lung disease (ILD), are major risk factors for lung cancer. However, these patients are typically not candidates for the gold-standard treatment option, lobectomy, because of the perioperative risks. In addition, patients with poor respiratory function can be excluded in prospective clinical trials. Thus, SBRT for patients with pulmonary diseases is still challenging, but there appears to be a clinical role for this modality as an alternative treatment. However, there are few well-documented review articles on SBRT for patients with pulmonary diseases. Therefore, we aimed to review SBRT in the context of important patient-related factors, including COPD and ILD. SBRT is an acceptable alternative treatment option for patients with lung cancer who also have COPD with an equivalent risk of radiation pneumonitis to normal lung. However, latent ILD should be detected prior to treatment. The indication for SBRT should be decided by carefully considering the risks and benefit for patients with ILD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard treatment for unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (LC) is chemoradiation therapy (CRT); however, the optimal treatment for LC in patients with interstitial pneumonia (IP) (LC-IP) has not been determined. This study compared the clinical course of LC-IP patients to that of patients without IP (LC without IP) and determined the key factors of survival. METHODS We retrieved the records of 52 consecutive LC patients treated at our institution between January 2011 and September 2016. The characteristics and outcomes of LC patients with and without IP were compared. Survival was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and univariate and multivariate analyses of two-year survival were also conducted. RESULTS Forty-two men and 10 women were evaluated. Eleven patients (21%) had IP as their underlying disease. Except for age, the backgrounds of LC patients with and without IP were almost identical. Among LC-IP patients, the median predicted forced vital capacity was 86% and the Gender-Age-Physiology (GAP) index was 3. None of the LC-IP patients received CRT but 32 (78%) of the LC without IP patients underwent CRT. Chemotherapy alone was the main treatment for LC-IP. The median survival times were 485 and 1271 days in LC patients with and without IP, respectively (p=0.419). Multivariate analysis of survival longer than two years revealed CRT as the only predictive factor. CONCLUSIONS CRT was the only predictive factor for longer survival in LC patients; however, no LC-IP patients received CRT, possibly because of the underlying IP.

Abstract
Background Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is characterized by a high propensity for metastases and a poor prognosis irrespective of high sensitivity for initial chemotherapy. Although interstitial pneumonia (IP) is one of risk factors for lung cancer, efficacy of cytotoxic chemotherapy for patients with SCLC with IP remains unclear. Our study aims to evaluate the efficacy of systemic chemotherapy and assess risk of acute exacerbation (AE)-IP with cytotoxic drugs for extensive disease (ED)-SCLC patients with IP. Methods We performed a retrospective study of 192 consecutive ED-SCLC patients with IP (n = 40) and without IP (n = 152) between 2008 and 2016. Result 31 of 40 ED-SCLC patients with IP and 130 of 152 patients without IP received systemic chemotherapy. The efficacy of chemotherapy in patients with IP was not inferior to that in patients without IP (overall survival [OS], 7.1 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.2–14.0] vs. 10.0 [95% CI: 8.2–11.8] months, P = 0.57). Pretreatment serum levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; 651.7 ± 481.0 vs. 301.4 ± 110.7 U/mL, P = 0.01) and C-reactive protein (CRP; 8.9 ± 9.6 vs. 1.8 ± 1.8 U/mL, P = 0.008) were correlated with developed AE-IP in the ED-SCLC patients with IP. Conclusion Systemic chemotherapy was effective even in ED-SCLC patients with IP. However, the risk of developed AE-IP that was high in patients with IP and should be evaluated using serum LDH and CRP levels before initial chemotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Patients with lung cancer and interstitial lung disease (ILD), usual interstitial pneumonia in particular, are known to have a poor outcome. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic impact of ILD in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer. METHODS A total of 2054 consecutive patients underwent complete resection of Stage IA-IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer in our institution between January 2002 and March 2013. The presence of ILD was diagnosed and categorized based on high-resolution computed tomography images. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify the prognostic factors. RESULTS There were 106 (5%) patients with ILD. There were significantly more patients who developed severe complications (P < 0.01) in the ILD group, with 4 (4%) patients developing acute exacerbation. Although the difference in postoperative mortality rate was marginal between the groups (P = 0.07), the 5-year overall survival and cancer-specific survival rates of the ILD patients were significantly worse than those of the non-ILD group (overall survival: 40.4% vs 72.0%, P < 0.01; cancer-specific survival 55.4% vs 78.6%, P < 0.01). The results of multivariate analysis showed that coexistence of ILD (hazard ratio 1.45; P = 0.01) was an independent, unfavourable prognostic factor. CONCLUSIONS The presence of ILD led to a much poorer survival after complete resection of non-small-cell lung cancer.

Abstract
Background The optimal chemotherapy regimen for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains unknown. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the real-world efficacy and safety of carboplatin (CBDCA) plus nab-paclitaxel (nab-PTX) as a first-line regimen for NSCLC patients with ILD. Patients and methods We retrospectively reviewed advanced NSCLC patients with ILD who had received CBDCA plus nab-PTX as a first-line chemotherapy regimen between April 2013 and March 2018. Patients were diagnosed with ILD based on the findings of a pretreatment high-resolution computed tomography of the chest. Results The 34 patients enrolled in this study were included in the efficacy and safety analysis. Collagen vascular disease or a history of exposure to dust or asbestos was not reported for any patients. The median age of patients was 71 years (range, 59–83 years), and 32 patients had a performance status of 0 or 1. The overall response rate was 38.2%. The median progression-free survival and overall survival were 5.8 months and 12.7 months, respectively. Chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of ILD was observed in two patients (5.7%). Other toxicities were feasible, and no treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusion CBDCA plus nab-PTX, as a first-line chemotherapy regimen for NSCLC, showed favorable efficacy and safety in patients with preexisting ILD.

Abstract
Background Lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease often develop acute exacerbation of their interstitial lung disease after lung resection. Special care is needed in selection of the surgical procedure to reduce acute exacerbation and provide long-term survival. Methods The Japanese Association for Chest Surgery devised a risk scoring system based on 7 risk factors to predict the probability of postoperative acute exacerbation. We excluded surgical procedures and used a modified system categorizing 4 groups: group A (risk score 0–6), group B (risk score 7–10), group C (risk score 11–14), and group D (risk score 15–18). We retrospectively examined 60 lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease to determine whether the modified risk scoring system is useful for selecting the optimal surgical procedure in anticipation of curability and risk of postoperative acute exacerbation. Results Eight (13.3%) patients experienced postoperative acute exacerbation. In group A ( n = 20), there was no difference in the incidence of acute exacerbation between wedge (0%) and anatomic resection (6.3%, p = 0.800). In group B ( n = 40), the incidence was significantly higher after anatomic resection (5.0% vs. 30.0%, p = 0.046). Thus group A had high-quality outcomes with anatomic resection, and in group B, the incidence of postoperative acute exacerbation can be reduced if wedge resection is performed. Conclusions Our modified risk scoring can be useful for selecting the optimal surgical procedure in anticipation of curability and the risk of acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease after lung cancer surgery.

Pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis is a risk factor for anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer: A retrospective analysis. Lung Cancer 2018; 125:212-217.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pneumonitis related to the use of anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibodies is a common immune-related adverse event that can be life-threatening. However, the relationship between pulmonary fibrosis/emphysema and the incidence of anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis is unclear. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed data from 123 patients who were diagnosed with non-small-cell lung cancer and treated with anti-PD-1 antibodies (nivolumab or pembrolizumab) at the Aichi Cancer Center Hospital, Japan, between December 17, 2015, and November 30, 2017. Patients who previously received thoracic radiotherapy to the primary lesion, mediastinum, spinal, or rib metastases were excluded from the analysis. Fibrosis score (0-5) and emphysema score (0-4) on baseline chest computed tomography (CT) were determined by two diagnostic radiologists. RESULTS Eighteen patients (14.6%) experienced anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis, of which four (3.3%) were grade ≥3. The median onset time of pneumonitis after starting anti-PD-1 therapy was 60 days (range, 6-634 days). According to the analysis of fibrosis score, pneumonitis occurred in 13 (35.1%) of the 37 patients with a fibrosis score ≥1 and in 5 (5.8%) of 86 patients with a fibrosis score of 0. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that fibrosis score ≥1 was the only risk factor for anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis (p = 0.0008). CONCLUSION Our results indicate that pre-existing pulmonary fibrosis significantly increases the risk of anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis. Further studies are needed to identify predictive factors of anti-PD-1-related pneumonitis in patients with fibrotic changes on CT findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The clinical benefit of chemotherapy and the appropriate regimen for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) remain unclear. To fulfill this unmet medical need, we conducted a phase II study to elucidate the efficacy of S-1 in combination with carboplatin (CBDCA) in NSCLC patients with ILD. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 33 advanced or recurrent NSCLC patients with ILD were prospectively enrolled in this multicenter, open-label, phase II study. Every 4 weeks, CBDCA at a dose of AUC 5 on day 1 and S-1 at a dose of 80 mg/m2 daily for 14 days were administered. The primary endpoint was the investigator-assessed objective response rate. RESULTS The median age at initiating chemotherapy was 70. Sixteen patients (48.5%) had squamous cell carcinoma histology. With respect to the types of ILD, the usual interstitial pneumonia pattern was dominant (66.7%). The median number of cycles administered was 3, and the overall response rate and disease control rate were 33.3% and 78.8%, respectively. The median progression-free survival, the median survival time and the 1-year survival rate were 4.8 months, 12.8 months and 51.4%, respectively. Acute exacerbation of ILD caused by chemotherapy was noted in 2 patients (6.1%). CONCLUSION This is the first prospective study designed to evaluate the efficacy of a specific chemotherapeutic regimen as the primary endpoint in patients with advanced NSCLC with ILD. The combination of S-1 with CBDCA may be a treatment option for advanced NSCLC patients with ILD (The clinical trial registration number: UMIN000011046).

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the most common form of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias, often progresses to restrictive respiratory disturbance and mortality, typically within 10 years. IPF frequently coexists with lung cancer, and the combination of these two disease entities is far more difficult to treat than either lung cancer or IPF alone. In particular, surgery for lung cancer with IPF in the background increases postoperative morbidity and mortality by exacerbating pre-existing IPF, i.e., acute exacerbation of IPF (AEIPF). Furthermore, the long-term outcome after lung cancer surgery is considerably worsened by the presence of IPF. We present here a comprehensive review of AEIPF and the long-term outcomes after surgery.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a disease of unknown etiology which accounts for a large proportion of cases of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia. It has a very poor prognosis with a 5-year survival rate of 30% or below, and so far there has been no guideline in Japan offering an established effective therapy based on evidence. In addition to the establishment of basic therapies, there is also an urgent need to establish therapies to deal with complications, as death occurs in many cases due to acute exacerbation or comorbid lung cancer. It was therefore decided to formulate a guideline in order to promote evidence-based clinical practice, to further improve the quality of medical treatment in the clinical setting, and to allow the benefits to be enjoyed by the public.

Abstract
Carcinosarcoma is a rare histological type of non-small cell carcinoma (NSCLC), and its prognosis has been reported to be worse compared with other NSCLCs. Nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-PTX) + carboplatin (CBDCA) achieves a favorable response rate in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We administered nab-PTX + CBDCA to a 68-year-old man with postoperative recurrent carcinosarcoma with interstitial lung disease (ILD). A partial response was evident after four cycles of chemotherapy. To the best of our knowledge, the present study is the first to report the safety and efficacy of nab-PTX + CBDCA for treating carcinosarcoma with ILD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and interstitial lung disease (ILD) are commonly excluded from most clinical trials because of acute exacerbation (AE) of ILD triggered by chemotherapy. Data on the efficacy and feasibility of chemotherapy are limited in this patient population. Recently, the ILD-GAP index and staging system was reported as a clinical prognostic factor associated with mortality in patients with ILD. Therefore, we evaluated the incidence of ILD-AE during the surveillance term in this study and the prognosis in patients with NSCLC and ILD using a modified ILD-GAP (ILD-NSCLC-GAP) index scoring system. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of patients with NSCLC and ILD who underwent a pulmonary function test before initiation of platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment at the Shizuoka Cancer Center between September 2002 and December 2014 were reviewed retrospectively. Among these patients, we compared the incidence of ILD-AE, one-year survival rate, and overall survival (OS) between the ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scores and stages. RESULTS Of the 78 patients included, 21 (27%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 18%-38%) had ILD-AE during the surveillance term in this study. The one-year survival and median OS rates were 49% and 11.3 months, respectively. The incidence of ILD-AE increased gradually and the one-year survival and median OS rates decreased gradually with increasing ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scores and stages. CONCLUSION The ILD-NSCLC-GAP index scoring and staging system may be a useful tool to calculate a prediction of the incidence of ILD-AE and its prognosis for patients with NSCLC and ILD.

Abstract
Background The optimal chemotherapy regimen for non-small cell lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease is unclear. We therefore investigated the safety and efficacy of carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel as a first-line regimen for non-small cell lung cancer in patients with interstitial lung disease. Methods We retrospectively reviewed advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with interstitial lung disease who received carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel as a first-line chemotherapy regimen at Hyogo Cancer Center between February 2013 and August 2016. interstitial lung disease was diagnosed according to the findings of pretreatment chest high-resolution computed tomography. Results Twelve patients were included (male, n = 11; female, n = 1). The overall response rate was 67% and the disease control rate was 100%. The median progression free survival was 5.1 months (95% CI: 2.9-8.3 months) and the median overall survival was 14.9 months (95% CI: 4.8-not reached). A chemotherapy-related acute exacerbation of interstitial lung disease was observed in one patient; the extent of this event was Grade 2. There were no treatment-related deaths. Conclusions Carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel, as a first-line chemotherapy regimen for non-small cell lung cancer, showed favorable efficacy and safety in patients with preexisting interstitial lung disease.

Treatment Rationale and Design for J-SONIC: A Randomized Study of Carboplatin Plus Nab-paclitaxel With or Without Nintedanib for Advanced Non-Small-cell Lung Cancer With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. Clin Lung Cancer 2018; 19:e5-e9.

Abstract
We describe the treatment rationale and procedure for a randomized study (J-SONIC; University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry identification no., UMIN000026799) of carboplatin plus nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) with or without nintedanib for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The study was designed to examine the efficacy and safety of nintedanib administered with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel versus carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel alone in chemotherapy-naive patients with advanced NSCLC associated with IPF. Eligible patients (enrollment target, n = 170) will be randomized at a 1:1 ratio to receive 4 cycles of carboplatin (area under the curve, 6 on day 1) plus nab-paclitaxel (100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15) administered every 3 weeks either without (arm A) or with (arm B) nintedanib (150 mg twice daily), to be followed in arm B by single-agent administration of nintedanib (150 mg twice daily). The present trial is the first randomized controlled study for the treatment of NSCLC associated with IPF. The goal of the study is to demonstrate that nintedanib combined with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel prolongs the interval to acute exacerbation of IPF compared with carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel alone.
