MINI06.13 - Multiple Lung Cancers: Is Their Survival Better or Worse Then Other Lung Cancers? (ID 3058)

Background:
Multiple lung cancers (MLCs) are determined using the Martini-Melamed clinical criteria, and comprehensive pathologic assessment. The prognosis of MLCs is not known. Herein, we evaluate the prognosis of patients with MLCs, one resected LC, and recurrent LC, to ascertain whether patients with MLCs have a distinct natural history compared to the other two groups.
Methods:
After IRB approval, we conducted a retrospective review of all patients who underwent an R0 resection for stage IA-IIIA LC from 2008-2013 in our institution. Patients with carcinoid tumors, adenocarcinoma-in-situ, multiple ground-glass opacities, intrapulmonary metastases and cancers not originating from the lung, were excluded. MLCs were defined using Martini-Melamed criteria and comprehensive pathologic assessment. Clinicopathologic data was collected. We used the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test to assess overall survival (OS) of patients with MLCs, one LC, or recurrent LC, from the time of surgery/pathologic confirmation of their MLC, one LC, or recurrent LC, respectively.
Results:
2352 patients were identified: one LC (n=2238), recurrent LC (n=348), MLC (n=113).Median OS and 2-year OS for patients in these subgroups stratified by stage, is depicted in Table 1. In patients with one LC, never smokers (p<0.001), adenocarcinoma histology (p<0.001), and surgery type (p<0.001) were associated with improved OS. In patients with recurrent LC, never smokers (p=0.015), and adenocarcinoma histology (p=0.009) were associated with favorable OS, compared to smokers and squamous histology respectively. In patients with MLCs, adenocarcinoma histology was associated with improved OS when compared to squamous histology (p=0.049).Pathologic Stage (n) Median Overall Survival (months, 95% CI) Two-Year Overall Survival p value One Lung Cancer (n=2238) All Not Reached (75.2-NA) 0<0.001 IA 0.914 IB 0.841 IIA 0.789 IIB 0.755 IIIA 0.691 Multiple Lung Cancers(n=113) All 55.5 (49.4-NA) 0.32 IA 0.810 IB 0.806 II/III 0.830 Recurrent Lung Cancer (n=348) All 10.4 (9.1-12.3) 0.077 IA 0.263 IB 0.180 IIA 0.273 IIB 0.351 IIA 0.083
Conclusion:
Martini-Melamed criteria and comprehensive pathologic assessments successfully identify patients with MLCs. Prognostic data for patients with MLCs, one LC and recurrent LC, highlight that these patients have a long natural history. MLCs have a long survival stage for stage, which underscores a definitive therapeutic approach where possible, based on favorable prognosis of these patients.
