      OA04 - Factors Influencing the Non-Administration of Chemotherapies in Patients Who Progressed After (ID 154)

      16:20 - 17:00  |  Author(s): N. Yamamoto

      • Abstract

      Background:
      Patients with EGFR-mutation-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (EGFR-NSCLC) who are treated with both cytotoxic chemotherapy and EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have better survival outcomes than those who are only treated with EGFR-TKIs. Limited information is available about the factors that influence the non-administration of cytotoxic chemotherapies after the failure of EGFR-TKIs.


      Method:
      We reviewed the medical records of EGFR-NSCLC patients who received EGFR-TKIs as a first-line treatment at the National Cancer Center Hospital between January 2010 and December 2016. Computed tomography data regarding the number of metastatic organs, at the time of progressive disease (PD), which reflects the tumor burden, was retrieved. EGFR-TKIs use beyond PD was also investigated. We performed a multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine the factors influencing the non-administration of cytotoxic chemotherapies.


      Results:
      A total of 393 patients received EGFR-TKIs as a first-line treatment during the study period. After the exclusion of 96 patients who were receiving ongoing EGFR-TKIs treatment, 297 patients (103 men, 194 women) were included in this analysis. The median age was 68 years (range, 33?87 years), and 291 patients had an adenocarcinoma histology; 155 had deletions in exon 19, 132 had the L858R point mutation in exon 21, and 10 had other minor mutations.

      P050 - Long-Term Survival of Stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC Patients with Interstitial Lung Diseases (ID 210)

      00:00 - 00:00  |  Author(s): N. Yamamoto

      • Abstract

      Background:
      Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) frequently occur in patients with lung cancer. The optimal treatment strategy for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with ILD remains unclear. We reviewed the efficacy and safety of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy.


      Method:
      We analyzed the medical records of patients with clinical stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC with ILD who were treated at our hospital between 2001 and 2016.


      Results:
      505 patients with clinical stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC were included. Of these patients with ILD, treatments included surgical resection (S) in 14 patients, chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in 7 patients, palliative chemotherapy (C) in 7 patients and palliative radiotherapy in one patient.The median follow-up period was 38 months. The patients' characteristics were as follows S/CRT/C: male, 26/6/7 patients; median age (range), 69 (58-82)/69 (60-75)/69 (35-82) years. Of the S, pathological stage IA/IIA/IIB/IIIA/IIIB, 1/1/2/9/1 patients. The median progression-free survival times were 9.5 months (95% CI: 5.3-45.3 months) in S, 45.9 months (95% CI: 7.2 months- not reached [NR]) in CRT, and 5.0 months (95% CI: 0.5-10.5 months) in C. The median overall survival time were 33.3 months (95% CI: 9.8 months-NR) in S, 45.9 months (95% CI: 8.3 months-NR) in CRT, and 9.9 months (95% CI: 1.6-42.4 months) in C. One patient died within 1 month of surgical resection. Acute exacerbations of ILD (AE-ILD) were noted in 14 % of the patients; 3 patients after surgery and 1 patient after chemoradiotherapy.


      Conclusion:
      The surgery and chemoradiotherapy can be considered as a treatment option for selected patients with IIIA-N2 NSCLC with ILD, with careful management after sufficient evaluation of the risks and the benefits.
