18PD_PR - Optimal screening interval for detection of newly developed lung cancer: Comparison of sexual difference (ID 390)
17:25 - 17:25 | Author(s): M.Y. Kim
- Abstract
Background:
The clinical and radiologic presentation of lung cancer in women differs from men, especially in Asia. The aim of this study is to identify potential gender-related differences of newly developed lung cancer and provide the optimal CT screening intervals for the patients who are managed in the health care center.
Methods:
Between January 2000 and February 2016, a total of 46,766 consecutive patients who underwent screening chest CT in Health Care Center at Asan Medical Center of Korea were retrospectively reviewed. During the study period, 282 patients (M:F=205:77) were finally diagnosed by lung cancer. Among them, lung cancers were detected by initial screening CT in 186 patients (excluded in this study), and 96 patients (M:F=85:11, age range M:F=62.7±12.9: 62.7±8.7 years, respectively) have been clinically diagnosed as newly developed lung cancers using subsequent screening CT follow-up. Using the 96 patients, CT screening intervals, stage, and pathology (with subtype and mutation) of cancers were evaluated and analyzed to find any gender-related differences.
Results:
In the 96 patients, mean age is not significantly different between genders. Most of the men were smokers (74/85, 87%). Adenocarcinoma is the most common type (36/85, 42%), followed by squamous cell carcinoma (35%), small cell lung cancer (18%), and others (5%) in men. All female patients were adenocarcinoma. The mean time interval of screening CT was relatively longer in women (5.6±3.1 years) than in men (3.6±2.4 years) (p=0.02). However, lung cancer stages are significantly higher in men. Minimum CT screening interval to detect stage I lung cancer was longer in women (5 years) compared to that in men (1 year).
Conclusions:
The interval of screening CT could be longer in women than men. To detect most of stage I lung cancer, a 3-year interval screening for women and 1-year interval for men are optimal in our study for minimizing radiation hazard and worry.

103P - Re-biopsy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer after EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy: CT characteristics of patients with T790M mutation and the use of various re-biopsy procedures (ID 385)
12:30 - 12:30 | Author(s): M.Y. Kim
- Abstract
Background:
Re-biopsy for mutation analysis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment is important to determine further chemotherapy regimen. There have been no studies about the radiologic characteristics of NSCLC with T790 mutation and the use of the various re-biopsy procedures.
Methods:
Between January and December 2016, 78 patients underwent re-biopsy for mutation analysis of NSCLC, and among them, 76 were assessed with adequate specimen. Patients’ treatment course, serial CT scans and pathologic reports were retrospectively reviewed. Re-biopsy methods are varied: EBUS or BFS-guided (n = 27), CT-guided (n = 18), fluoroscopy-guided (n = 5) biopsies, US-guided supraclavicular lymph node (n = 6) or other sites (n = 6) biopsies and pleural fluid analysis (n = 14). CT images obtained at the time of initial biopsy and re-biopsy were compared between patients with and without T790M mutation. Re-biopsy associated complications were assessed.
Results:
Among 76 patients, 40 (52.6%) presented T790M mutation on re-biopsy. Progression free survivals between patients with and without T790M mutation were not statistically different (322 and 389 days, respectively). On initial CT, pleural retraction (odds ratio (OR), 4.1; p = 0.03) and the presence of pleural metastasis (OR, 3.4; p = 0.03) were significant factors that related to the positive T790M mutation by multivariate logistic analysis. Pleural retraction (OR, 26.8, p = 0.03) and pleural metastasis (OR, 11.4; p = 0.004) are also shown as significant factors that related to the positive T790M mutation on CT obtained at the time of re-biopsy. Three patients developed pneumothorax, and two were managed by chest tube insertion. One patient who was negative T790M mutation on pleural fluid analysis finally diagnosed as positive T790M mutation by following CT-guided biopsy.
Conclusions:
Pleural retraction and pleural metastasis were significantly associated factors to positive T790M mutation in NSCLC patients who underwent re-biopsy. Negative T790M on pleural fluid analysis could not give a guarantee for true negative, and further core biopsy might be recommended.

107P - The real world experience of first generation Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) in patients with advanced lung cancer: Explorative analysis of big data from national health insurance service of Korea (ID 437)
12:30 - 12:30 | Author(s): M.Y. Kim
- Abstract
Background:
Although the effectiveness of EGFR-TKI in patients with advanced lung cancer has been proven in previous trials, the real-world efficacy of EGFR-TKI has not been investigated. The object of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of first-generation EGFR-TKI in female patients with advanced lung cancer using big data analysis.
Methods:
We retrospectively reviewed the Korean health insurance service data of advanced lung cancer patients from January 2004 to December 2013. Patients older than 20 years in palliative setting were grouped into three categories: Group A received 1st-generation EGFR-TKI ≥6 months, group B given EGFR-TKI < 6 months, and group C was treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy alone. For each group, we determined progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
Results:
Of 11,045 patients enrolled in the study, 6,170 (55.8%) received EGFR-TKI at least 1 month, and 4,875 (44.2%) never treated with EGFR-TKI. 2,572 were in the group A and 3,598 were in the group B. In the group C, platinum based doublet agent or monotherapy such as docetaxel, gemcitabine and pemetrexed was administered. The median OS of patients treated with EGFR-TKI was significantly longer than that of EGFR-TKI naïve patients (19.1 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 18.5-19.7] vs 9.5 months [95% CI 9.1-9.8]; p < 0.0001). In subgroup analysis, the median OS was 30.3 months [95% CI 29.5-31.2] in the group A, compared with 12.3 months [95% CI 11.9-12.7] in the group B and 9.5 months [95% CI 9.1-9.8] in the group C (p < 0.001). Patients age < 65 years, treated with EGFR-TKI ≥ 6months, and received docetaxel, pemetrexed chemotherapy were independent predictors of longer OS (Hazard ratio (HR) 0.78 [95% CI 0.74-0.81]; p = 0.002, HR 0.41 [95% CI 0.38-0.43]; p < 0.001, HR 0.81 [95% CI 0.77-0.85]; p < 0.001, HR 0.77 [95% CI 0.74-0.81]; p < 0.001, respectively). Median PFS was 15.8 months [95% CI 15.1-16.3] in group A and 3.7 months [95% CI 3.5-3.8] in group B (p < 0.001).
Conclusions:
The current study demonstrated that EGFR-TKI conferred a significant PFS and OS benefit in female patient with advanced lung cancer in real-world.
