    Background:
    Brain metastases (BM) are common among patients with adenocarcinoma, affecting treatment response, quality of life and overall survival(OS). We examine the impact of the main histological pattern and the genetic alterations in EGFR and ALK on the incidence of BM in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
    
    Methods:
    From January 2004 through December 2014 the medical records of 991 patients with NSCLC were reviewed for eligibility, among them 711 had adenocarcinoma histology. We describe the factors associated with the overall incidence of BM as well as the incidence of BM stratified on the histological grade pattern according to the ERS/ATC/IASLC classification (lepidic vs acinar+papilar vs micropapilar+solid).
    
    Results:
    Among 711 patients, 53.6% were female, 47.1% were less than 60 years-old at the time of diagnosis, exposure to tobacco, wood-smoke and asbestos were found in 52.0%, 40.5% and 13.8%, respectively. Seventy-six percent had a good performance status, and nearly sixty percent (59.8%) had oligometastatic disease. Most of the patients had a stage IV disease at the time of diagnosis (79.3%). Regarding histological grade classification, male patients were more likely to have a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma in comparison with women (61.2% vs. 51.2%, p=0.027), as well as ever-smokers compared with non-smokers (61.4% vs. 49.9%). Likewise, patients harboring an ALK rearrangement were more likely to have a highly- or moderate differentiated adenocarcinoma (100% vs. 43.6%, p=0.008). A total of 122 patients (17.1 %) had a brain metastasis at diagnosis and 37.4% had baseline carcinoembryonic levels above 20 pg/ml.By Kaplan-Meier method 6.45% and 12.10% of patients developed BM at 12 and 24 months. The factors associated with a high incidence of BM were: female gender (40.9% vs. 34.4%; p=0.036), age < 60 years (44.4% vs. 32.1%, p=<0.001), EGFR activating mutation (53.9% vs. 39.3%; p=0.001), advanced metastatic disease (IIIB vs IV 42.8% vs. 20.3%; p=<0.0001), serological carcinoembryonic level >20pg/ml (47.2% vs. 32.8%; p=<0.0001) Finally, brain metastases were more likely to be found among patients with moderate and poorly-differentiated adenocarcinomas in comparison with highly differentiated adenocarcinomas (54.2, and 48.1% vs. 7.7%; p=0.050). In the multivariate analysis EGFR (HR:0.63;95%CI 0.44-0.92, p=0.017) and highly differentiated adenocarcinomas EGFR (HR:1.59;95%CI 1.03-2.44, p=0.034) were found to be independent factors for the development of BM.
    
    Conclusion:
    Adenocarcinoma histological-architectural-grade differentiation according to ERS/ATC/IASCL classification was found to be a predictive factor for development of BM like other previously described clinically characteristics (e.g. gender, age, EGFR activating mutations and carcinoembryonic-antigen).
