P3.04-011 - A Prospective Study to Optimize the Extent of Pulmonary Resection According to Decision-Making Algorithm in cStage IA NSCLC (ID 10047)

- Abstract
Background:
Recent advances in imaging technology and the widespread use of low-dose computed tomography screening have greatly increased the chance of detecting small-sized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with indolent features (radiologically ground-glass opacity and histopathologically lepidic pattern adenocarcinoma). This change in the disease pattern of NSCLC has led to a resurgence of interest in sublobar resection. The purpose of this study is to determine the outcome of patients with clinical stage IA NSCLC treated by 3 types of surgical resection (wide wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy) according to the institutional decision-making algorithm.
Method:
In this study, we are planning to prospectively enroll 1,000 patients with clinical stage IA NSCLC undergoing curative-intent surgical resection. Our decision-making algorithm regarding the optimal extent of pulmonary resection has been developed based on our institutional consensus building meetings. We are planning to prospectively measure radiologic features such as tumor diameter and consolidation/tumor (CT) ratio. For ≤ 2cm tumors with CT ratio of ≤ 0.25, wide wedge resection needs to be performed. For ≤ 2cm tumors with CT ratio of 0.25 to 0.5 or 2-3cm tumors with CT ratio of ≤ 0.5, segmentectomy should be chosen. When CT ratio is larger than 0.5, lobectomy is required regardless of tumor size. When either parenchymal or bronchial resection margin is found to be insufficient during surgery, segmentectomy or lobectomy should be done even when a lesser resection was planned. Resection margins greater than the maximal tumor diameter (lesions less than 2cm) or at least 2cm gross margins (lesions larger than 2cm) should be achieved. Hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection or at least systematic lymph node sampling is strongly recommended for any kind of pulmonary resection.
Result:
The primary objective is to determine disease-free survival following sublobar resection and lobectomy. The secondary objectives are (1) to determine overall survival following surgery, (2) to determine rates of loco-regional and systemic recurrence following surgery, (3) to compare postoperative pulmonary function between 3 different resection types, (4) to explore the relationship between radiologic parameters and pathologic subtypes, and (5) to determine the predictors of unexpected nodal involvement.
Conclusion:
This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT03066297 (“OREX-IA” study) and we started recruiting patients in February, 2017 and will also be planning to follow up patients for at least 5 years to analyze their survival and recurrences.
