P2.03a-009 - Clinical Outcome of Node-Negative Oligometastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 4357)
14:30 - 14:30 | Author(s): K. Tanaka
- Abstract
Background:
The concept of “oligometastasis” has emerged as a basis on which to identify patients with stage IV non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who might be most amenable to curative treatment. Although such patients without regional lymph node metastases tend to have a longer overall survival (OS) than those with regional lymph node involvement, limited data have been available regarding the survival of patients with node-negative oligometastatic NSCLC. We have therefore now evaluated the clinical outcome of stage IV node-negative oligometastatic NSCLC.
Methods:
Consecutive patients with advanced NSCLC who attended Kindai University Hospital between January 2007 and January 2016 were recruited to this retrospective study. Patients with regional lymph node–negative disease and a limited number of metastatic lesions (≤5) per organ site and a limited number of affected organ sites (1 or 2) were eligible.
Results:
Eighteen patients were identified for analysis during the study period. The most frequent metastatic site was the central nervous system (CNS, 72%). Most patients (83%) received systemic chemotherapy, with only three (17%) undergoing aggressive surgery, for the primary lung tumor. The CNS failure sites for patients with CNS metastases were located outside of the surgery or radiosurgery field. The median OS for all patients was 15.9 months, with that for EGFR mutation–positive patients tending to be longer than that for EGFR mutation–negative patients.
Conclusion:
Our results indicate that a cure is difficult to achieve with current treatment strategies for NSCLC patients with synchronous oligometastases, although a few long-term survivors and a smaller number of patients alive at last follow-up were present among the study cohort. There is an urgent clinical need for prospective evaluation of surgical resection as a treatment for oligometastatic NSCLC negative for driver mutations.

P3.02b-097 - Experience of Re-Biopsy (Biopsy at Progression) of EGFR Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients in Japan: A Retrospective Study (ID 4049)
14:30 - 14:30 | Author(s): K. Tanaka
- Abstract
Background:
To confirm mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapy and to evaluate future treatment strategy, biopsy at progression is important and necessary. Since biopsy at progression is not standard of care, we investigated real-world clinical practice in Japanese patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients harboring the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation.
Methods:
This was a retrospective, multi-center, observational study in Japan. EGFR mutation positive NSCLC patients who developed disease progression after treatment by EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor were enrolled. The primary objective was the success rate of re-biopsy (biopsy at progression). The secondary objectives were differences of between the first biopsy and re-biopsy (e.g. sampling method, target organ of biopsy) and complications associated with re-biopsy.
Results:
395 patients were evaluated, median age was 63 years, and the most common histological type was adenocarcinoma (96.2%). Success rate of re-biopsy was 79.5% (314/395) of patients. Compared with the first biopsy, surgical biopsy increased from 1.8% to 7.8%, percutaneous tissue biopsy increased from 7.6% to 29.1%. Most commonly performed gene mutation tests using specimen collected by re-biopsy were EGFR (94.3%), EML4-ALK (22.0%) and KRAS (14.3%). T790M mutation was detected in 147 (49.7 %) out of 296 patients. 23 patients (5.8%) had complications associated with re-biopsy, the most common complication was pneumothorax. A repeated re-biopsy was successful in 87.5% (28/32) of patients.Table. Re-biopsy success rate by site and sampling method No. of patients Success rate (%) By Site Primary site 220 168 (76.4%) Metastatic site 121 103 (85.1%) Lymphnodes 50 40 (80.0%) Others 4 3(75.0%) By sampling method Transbronchial biopsy; forceps 204 147(72.1%) Transbronchial biopsy; needle 41 34 (82.9%) Percutaneous needle biopsy under CT guidance 77 66 (85.7%) Percutaneous needle biopsy under ultrasonic guidance 36 34 (94.4%)
Conclusion:
The observed success rate of re-biopsy was approximately 80% in this study. T790M detection rate was comparable to the previously reported studies. Re-biopsy for the EGFR TKI failure NSCLC patients is feasible in Japan.
