      Background:
      The prognosis after standard lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with interstitial lung disease (ILD) is poor. This study aimed to compare the prognosis after lobectomy and sublobar resection for early NSCLC with ILD.

      Methods:
      Among 794 consecutive patients with clinical stage I NSCLC who underwent complete resection, 107 patients with ILD on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), which was defined according to the American Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, Japanese Respiratory Society, and Latin American Thoracic Association classification, were identified.

      Results:
      Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse for patients with possible usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) or UIP pattern than those with inconsistent with UIP pattern (3-year OS, 64.5% vs. 82.1%, respectively; P = 0.031). No significant difference existed in OS between lobectomy and sublobar resection for all patients with ILD (3-year OS, 67.1% vs. 81.9%, respectively; P = 0.14). Although in patients with inconsistent with UIP pattern, OS was similar between lobectomy and sublobar resection groups (3-year OS, 81.1% vs. 83.6%, respectively; P = 0.87), OS was better for patients who underwent sublobar resection than lobectomy in patients with possible UIP or UIP patterns (3-year OS, 81.0% vs. 50.5%, respectively; P = 0.069). Multivariate Cox analysis demonstrated that preoperative diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (P = 0.018), not the surgical procedure (P = 0.14), was an independent prognostic factor for OS.

      Conclusion:
      Sublobar resection can be an alternative choice for clinical stage I NSCLC with ILD especially for UIP or possible UIP patterns on HRCT.

      P2.06-037 - A Feasibility Study of Concurrent Chemoradiation Followed by Surgery for Pathologically-Proven Clinical IIIA-N2 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 4700)

      Background:
      The standard treatment for stage IIIA-N2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is definitive chemoradiotherapy. However, the strategy for resectable IIIA-N2 disease remains controversial. This phase II multi-institutional trial (WJOG5308L) was designed to evaluate the feasibility for neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery (tri-modality) in patients with pathologically-proven N2 NSCLC.

      Methods:
      Patients with resectable IIIA-N2 (pathologically proven N2) were eligible. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy consisted of weekly paclitaxel (40mg/m2) plus carboplatin (AUC 2) for 5 weeks. Concurrent radiotherapy (RT) was prescribed with 50 Gy in 25 fractions to the mediastinum and primary tumor. Patients underwent surgical resection, unless PD disease, followed by two courses of paclitaxel plus carboplatin consolidation chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was complete resection (R0) rate. Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival, overall survival, response rate, protocol completion rate and morbidity/mortality.

      Results:
      From December 2011 to November 2013, 40 patients were enrolled. The median follow-up time was 33.97 (7.2-46.3) months. The radiological responses to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy were as follows: no complete response, 23 (57.5%) partial response, 16 (40.0%) stable disease and one (2.5%) progression. 34 of 40 patients underwent surgery. Reasons for not receiving surgery were radiation pneumonitis (n=4), PD (n=1) and delay of protocol (n=1). Of 34 resections, twenty-eight were lobectomies, three were bilobectomies, two were pneumonectomies, and one was exploratory thoracotomy. Six patients underwent sleeve lobectomy, without any complication. Thirty-two patients achieved the primary endpoint, complete resection (R0) rate 80% (32/40). Pathological complete response (PCR) rate was 30.3%. Finally, 20 patients (50%) completed all planned tri-modality treatment. The 2-year progression-free and overall survival rates for all patients were 62.5% and 75.0%, respectively. The 2-year recurrence-free survival for patients who received R0 was 61.5%. Neutropenia was the main grade 3/4 morbidity and tolerable. 30-days mortality rate was 0 %. Two treat-related deaths (late bronchial fistula) occurred. Sites of first disease recurrences were mediastinal lymphnodes (n=9, 22.5%), lung (n=8, 20%), and brain (n=4, 10%).

      Conclusion:
      Tri-modality treatment, neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery, for resectable IIIA-N2 NSCLC seems feasible and promising.
