P2.03-006 - Survival Rates after Surgery for Stage-3A (N2) Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer with Induction versus Adjuvant Chemotherapy+/-Radiation Therapy (ID 3151)

- Abstract
Background:
We compared survival of stage-3A non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients (pts) after surgery without or with induction versus adjuvant chemotherapy + radiation therapy (chemo+XRT).
Methods:
We retrospectively analyzed pts with clinical stage-3A (cStage3A) NSCLC and who had surgery without or with induction chemo+XRT or who were pathologic stage-3A (pStage3A) and had adjuvant chemo+XRT. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were compared for these 3 groups, with significant differences at p<0.05 by Chi Square test, with Log Rank (Mantel-Cox), Breslow (Generalized Wilcoxon), and Tarone-Ware pairwise comparisons.
Results:
From 1/1986 to 12/2010, there were 300 NSCLC pts who were cStage3A at surgery. Another 52 pts were not cStage3A at surgery, but were then pStage3A. Of these 352 pts, 192 had curative resection, with 56 pts having surgery alone (SURG), 43 pts having surgery after induction therapy (NEOADJ), and 93 pts having surgery then adjuvant therapy (ADJ). Kaplan-Meier survival for SURG was worse than that for either NEOADJ (p=0.03) or ADJ (p=0.005), while NEOADJ and ADJ had similar survival (p=0.90). Median survival was 18+3 mon (95%CI: 12-24 mon) for SURG, 37+6 mon (95%CI: 25-50 mon) for NEOADJ, and 41+5 mon (95%CI: 31- 51 mon) for ADJ. Survival for NEOADJ chemo-alone pts was better than for SURG pts (p=0.031), while that of NEOADJ chemo+XRT pts was similar to SURG survival (p=0.488). Survival for ADJ chemo-alone pts was better than for SURG pts (p=0.007), while that of ADJ chemo+XRT pts was similar to SURG survival (p=0.163).
Conclusion:
Stage-3A NSCLC pts have improved survival with either induction or adjuvant therapy compared to surgery alone. Patients with induction or adjuvant chemo alone, but not those with induction or adjuvant chemo+XRT, have improved survival compared to surgery alone.
