P1.06-008 - Prevalence of Lung Cancer in Patients with Interstitial Lung Disease is Higher than in those with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (ID 8813)

- Abstract
Background:
Lung cancer epidemiology related to interstitial lung disease (ILD) with or without connective tissue disease (CTD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is not yet established. ILD potentially develops into scar lung cancer. We aimed to explore lung cancer prevalence in ILD patients with or without CTD and IPF in comparison with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD).
Method:
We evaluated lung cancer prevalence associated with ILD and IPF using Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) data from January to December 2011. This database (HIRA-NPS-2011-0001) was created using random sampling of outpatients; 1,375,842 sample cases were collected, and 670,258 (age ³ 40) were evaluated. Patients with ILDs, IPF, CTD, or COPD were identified using the International Classification of Disease-10 diagnostic codes.
Result:
Lung cancer prevalence rates per 100,000 person for the study population and those with ILD, IPF, CTD-ILD, and COPD were 420, 7334, 7404, 7272, and 4721, respectively. Lung cancer prevalence was significantly higher in those with ILD than in those with COPD.
Conclusion:
More attention must be paid to lung cancer development in those with ILD as well as COPD.
