NSCLC stage IIIB(treated in 2004)Summary of the case presented by Dr. Zappa 82 y. woman, severe comorbidities (diarrhes, diverticulitis,hypecalcemia,…) Biopsies : G3 NSCLC (squamoid) obtained by bronchoscopy CT + PET-CT : upper left « huge » Pancoast NSCLC Palliative RT (or RT + CT) Curative RT-CT (ev surgery ?) Palliative or curative option ?
Pancoast tumorcurative intent ? metaanalyses or large prospective studies of patients are not available Sulcus tumors or Pancoast tumors: Lung cancers in the apex of the chest, with ANY invasion of apical chest wall structures . Brachial plexus invasion not more required for definition Staging work-up like other resectable lung cancers Strong recommandation to perform a mediastinoscopy Shen - CHEST 2007; 132:290S–305S
Pancoast tumorcurative intent Chemoradiation followed by surgery if possible Chemoradiation alone Baltimore retrospective serie of 37 patients induction chemotherapy high-dose three-dimensional radiation (60 Gy) followed by surgery In 37 patients : complete resection rate of 97.3% complete response rate of 40.5% Overall median survival time was 2.6 years (7.8 years in the group with a pathologic CR) Kwong K, J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2005;129:1250–1257 Staging work-up like other resectable lung cancers Shen - CHEST 2007; 132:290S–305S
Pancoast tumorpalliative intent radiation alone achieved good palliation of pain in approximately 75% of patients (Van Houtte P. Cancer 1984; 54:223–227) No long term survival if radiation alone (<5%) (Detterbeck FC, Pancoast tumors. Saunders, 2001; 233–243) Palliative radiotherapy recommended in this case (age, comorbidities) Shen - CHEST 2007; 132:290S–305S
NSCLC stage IIIBChemoradiation Standard : Concomittant chemoradiation Slight OS advantage : HR 0.87 The optimal chemotherapy regimen to combine with RT is uncertain Jett - CHEST 2007; 132:266S–276S
NSCLC stage IIIBChemoradiation (oral vinorelbine) • 2 induction cycles : • oral vinorelbine 60 mg/m day 1,8 cycle 1 and 80 mg/m day 1,8 cycle 2 • cisplatin 80 mg/m day 1 every 3 weeks for 2 cycles as induction • Radiotherapy 66 Gy (6,5 weeks) with 2 cycles of • oral vinorelbine 40 mg/m day 1, 8 • cisplatin 80 mg/m day 1 every 3 weeks TOX : G3 dysphagia/radiation in 4% ORR 54% Med DFS = 12.5 mo Med OS = 23.4 mo Krzakowski M – J Thorac Oncol. 2008 Sep;3(9):994-1002.
