Comprehensive study of prognostic risk factors of patients underwent pneumonectomy.

ABSTRACT: Introduction: To investigate postoperative complications and the prognostic risk factors of patients underwent pneumonectomy. Methods: Four hundred and six patients underwent pneumonectomy were subjected to the study. All the clinicopathologic data including age, gender, smoking history, surgical treatment, postoperative complications, tumor staging and the follow-up information were investigated. Results: The 30-day and 90-day mortality rates were 3.2% and 6.2%, respectively. Postoperative complications developed in 149 patients (36.7%), mainly included arrhythmia, transfusion, pulmonary infection, bronchopleural fistula and acute respiratory distress syndrome. During the follow-up, 189 patients experienced a relapse, consisting of 51 patients with local recurrence and 138 with distant recurrence. The median survival time was 24.4 months and the overall 1-year, 3-year and 5-year survival rates were 82.7%, 50.9% and 32.5%, respectively. Moreover, the overall 1-year, 3-year, 5-year survival rates for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) were 84.1%, 52.1% and 32.5%, respectively and patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) were 56.1%, 38.5% and 28.8%, respectively. Among NSCLCs, adenocarcinomas had a worse prognosis than squamous carcinomas. Compared to right pneumonectomy, patients with left pneumonectomy had a better prognosis. Multivariable analysis revealed ICU stay, disease stage, nodal stage and adjuvant chemotherapy were all significant predictors of overall survival (OS). Conclusions: Pneumonectomy is still a valuable and effective treatment option for patients with advanced lung cancer. Surgeons should be more cautious when patients had higher disease stage, adenocarcinoma and right-side lung cancer. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy did not affect the prognosis. Pneumonectomy could also achieve acceptable survival outcomes in well-selected SCLC patients.

Project description:BackgroundWe aimed to identify clinicopathological and molecular features associated with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after pulmonary metastasectomy for metastatic colorectal cancer in a retrospective cohort in Brazil.Materials and methodsWe did a retrospective review of thoracic surgeries performed in a single large academic hospital in Brazil from January 1985 to September 2019. Demographics, previously described prognostic factors, and clinicopathological and molecular characteristics were abstracted. Univariate Cox regression was performed for each variable, and, when significant, data were dichotomized to provide clinically meaningful thresholds.ResultsRecords from 698 patients were reviewed. Fifty-eight patients underwent pulmonary metastasectomy with curative intent. Of those, 53.4% had a single metastatic lesion. The median size of the largest lesion was 1.5 cm. Results of RAS, RAF, and mismatch repair testing and of cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and CDX2 testing were available for 13.8% and 58.6% of the sample, respectively. Median PFS was 14 months, median OS was 58 months, and 5-year survival was 49.8%. Unfavorable prognostic factors for OS included disease-free interval (DFI) <24 months, synchronous presentation, size of the largest lesion ≥2 cm, and loss of CK20 expression. Presenting with more than one lesion was prognostic for PFS but not for OS.ConclusionIn this Brazilian cohort, our findings corroborate existing data supporting DFI, synchronous presentation, and number and size of lesions as prognostic factors. Furthermore, we found that loss of CK20 expression may be associated with more aggressive disease and shorter OS. Additional molecular prognostic factors after pulmonary metastasectomy for colorectal cancer should be further explored.Implications for practiceThis study consolidates disease-free interval, synchronous presentation, and number and size of lesions as clinically relevant data that may help guide therapy for patients with colorectal cancer and lung metastases who are candidates for curative-intent metastasectomy. Additionally, in this sample, lack of cytokeratin 20 expression in metastases was associated with shorter progression-free survival and overall survival, suggesting that biomarkers also may have a role in guiding therapy in this setting and that additional biomarkers should be further explored.

Project description:BackgroundThe tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system is insufficient to precisely distinguish the long-term survival of patients who underwent pneumonectomy for primary lung cancer. Therefore, this study sought to identify determinants of disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS) for incorporation into web-based dynamic nomograms.MethodsThe clinicopathological variables, surgical methods and follow-up information of 1,261 consecutive patients who underwent pneumonectomy for primary lung cancer between January 2008 and December 2018 at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were collected. Nomograms for predicting DFS and OS were built based on the significantly independent predictors identified in the training cohort (n = 1,009) and then were tested on the validation cohort (n = 252). The concordance index (C-index) and time-independent area under the receiver-operator characteristic curve (AUC) assessed the nomogram's discrimination accuracy. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was applied to evaluate the clinical utility.ResultsDuring a median follow-up time of 40.5 months, disease recurrence and death were observed in 446 (35.4%) and 665 (52.7%) patients in the whole cohort, respectively. In the training cohort, a higher C-reactive protein to albumin ratio, intrapericardial pulmonary artery ligation, lymph node metastasis, and adjuvant therapy were significantly correlated with a higher risk for disease recurrence; similarly, the independent predictors for worse OS were intrapericardial pulmonary artery and vein ligation, higher T stage, lymph node metastasis, and no adjuvant therapy. In the validation cohort, the integrated DFS and OS nomograms showed well-fitted calibration curves and yielded good discrimination powers with C-index of 0.667 (95% confidence intervals CIs [0.610-0.724]) and 0.697 (95% CIs [0.649-0.745]), respectively. Moreover, the AUCs for 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year DFS were 0.655, 0.726, and 0.735, respectively, and those for 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year OS were 0.741, 0.765, and 0.709, respectively. DCA demonstrated that our nomograms could bring more net benefit than the TNM staging system.ConclusionsAlthough pneumonectomy for primary lung cancer has brought encouraging long-term outcomes, the constructed prediction models could assist in precisely identifying patients at high risk and developing personalized treatment strategies to further improve survival.
