Polymorphisms in BMP2/BMP4, with estimates of mean lung dose, predict radiation pneumonitis among patients receiving definitive radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TGF?1 can predict the risk of radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after definitive radiotherapy. Here we investigated whether SNPs in TGF? superfamily members BMP2 and BMP4 are associated with RP in such patients. In total, we retrospectively analyzed 663 patients given ? 60 Gy for NSCLC. We randomly assigned 323 patients to the training cohort and 340 patients to the validation cohort. Potentially functional and tagging SNPs of BMP2 (rs170986, rs1979855, rs1980499, rs235768, rs3178250) and BMP4 (rs17563, rs4898820, rs762642) were genotyped. The median of mean lung dose (MLD) was 17.9 Gy (range, 0.15-32.74 Gy). Higher MLD was strongly associated with increased risk of grade ? 2 RP (hazard ratio [HR]=2.191, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.680-2.856, P < 0.001) and grade ? 3 RP (HR = 4.253, 95% CI = 2.493-7.257, P < 0.001). In multivariate analyses, BMP2 rs235768 AT/TT was associated with higher risk of grade ? 2 RP (HR = 1.866, 95% CI = 1.221-2.820, P = 0.004 vs. AA) both in training cohort and validation cohort. Similar results were observed for BMP2 rs1980499. BMP2 rs3178250 CT/TT was associated with lower risk of grade ? 3 RP (HR = 0.406, 95% CI = 0.175-0.942, P = 0.036 vs. CC) in the pooled analysis. Adding the rs235768 and rs1980499 SNPs to a model comprising age, performance status, and MLD raised the Harrell's C for predicting grade ? 2 RP from 0.6117 to 0.6235 (P = 0.0105). SNPs in BMP2 can predict grade ? 2 or 3 RP after radiotherapy for NSCLC and improve the predictive power of MLD model. Validation is underway through an ongoing prospective trial.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TGFβ1 can predict the risk of radiation pneumonitis (RP) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after definitive radiotherapy. Here we investigated whether SNPs in TGFβ superfamily members BMP2 and BMP4 are associated with RP in such patients. In total, we retrospectively analyzed 663 patients given ≥ 60 Gy for NSCLC. We randomly assigned 323 patients to the training cohort and 340 patients to the validation cohort. Potentially functional an ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundRadiation pneumonitis is a critical pulmonary toxicity after irradiation of the lung. Macrolides including clarithromycin (CAM) are antibiotics. They also have immunomodulatory properties and are used to treat respiratory inflammatory diseases. Radiation pneumonitis has similar pathology to them. Adverse reactions to macrolides are few and self-limited. We thus administered CAM to patients with high-risk factors for radiation pneumonitis, and retrospectively investigated whether CAM mitigated radiation pneumonitis following stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).MethodsAmong consecutive patients treated with SBRT, we retrospectively examined lung cancer patients treated with a total dose of 40-60 Gy in 5-10 fractions and followed ≥6 months. Since January 2014, CAM has been administered in patients with pretreatment predictable radiation pneumonitis high-risk factors, including idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs), and elevated Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6) and/or surfactant protein D (SP-D), and in patients developing early onset radiation pneumonitis.ResultsFive hundred and eighty eligible patients were identified and divided into 445 patients during the non-CAM-administration era (non-CAM-era) (before December 2013) and 136 patients during the CAM-administration era (CAM-era) (after January 2014). Median follow-up durations were 38.0 and 13.9 months, respectively. The rates of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 2 and ≥ grade 3 were significantly lower in CAM-era (grade ≥2, 16% vs. 9.6%, P=0.047; grade ≥3, 3.8% vs. 0.73%, P=0.037). For patients with the pretreatment predictable high-risk factors, the rate of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 3 was significantly lower, and that of grade ≥2 had a lower tendency (grade ≥3, 7.2% vs. 0%, P=0.011; grade ≥2, 21% vs. 9.6%, P=0.061). For patients developing early onset radiation pneumonitis, the rate of radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 3 was also significantly lower (23% vs. 0%, P<0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that dose-volumetric factor, the pretreatment predictable high-risk factors and non-CAM-administration era were significantly associated with or trended toward radiation pneumonitis ≥ grade 2 and ≥ grade 3.ConclusionsCAM mitigated radiation pneumonitis following SBRT. The efficacy of CAM should be conﬁrmed in prospective studies.

Project description:PurposeWhilst survival benefits of thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) followed by immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) have been reported in patients with lung cancer, the potential high risk of treatment-related pneumonitis remains a concern. Asians may be more sensitive to lung toxicity than other races. This retrospective study intended to provide a comprehensive pneumonitis profile of TRT followed by ICI and investigate the risk factors from a Chinese cohort of lung cancer.Methods and materialsFrom January 2016 to July 2021, 196 patients with lung cancer who received TRT prior to ICI were retrospectively analyzed. Treatment-related pneumonitis, including checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis (CIP), radiation pneumonitis (RP), and radiation recall pneumonitis (RRP), were recorded and graded through medical records and chest computed tomography. Characteristics predictive of pneumonitis were assessed using logistic regression models, and the receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed to identify optimal cut points for quantitative variables.ResultsWith a median follow-up of 18 months, a total of 108 patients (55.1%) developed treatment-related pneumonitis during ICI therapy, with an incidence of 25.5% for grade 2 or higher (G2+) and 4.1% for G3+. The overall rates of CIP, RP and RRP were 8.2% (n=16), 46.9% (n=92) and 7.1% (n=14), respectively. With a total mortality rate of 1.5%, vast majority of the patients recovered from pneumonitis or remained stable. No patients died of RRP. Half of the patients with G2+ RP who withheld ICI therapy restarted ICI safely after resolution of RP. The history of chronic pulmonary diseases (P=0.05), mean lung dose (MLD, P=0.038), percent volume of lung receiving ≥5 Gy (V5, P=0.012) and percent volume of lung receiving ≥20 Gy (V20, P=0.030) predicted the occurrence of RRP in univariate analyses. Interval between TRT and ICI less than 3 months was an independent predictor for G2+ treatment-related pneumonitis in a multivariate model (Odds ratio OR=2.787, P=0.004).ConclusionsTreatment-related pneumonitis, especially RRP, is acceptable and manageable in the setting of TRT followed by ICI in this Asian population. Dosimetric parameters MLD, V5 and V20 may improve the predictions of RRP in clinical practice.
