Results

Increased levels of CEA, SCC, Cyfra 21-1, and NSE levels

were detected in 52 (29%), 32 (18%), 61 (34%), and 81

(45%) patients, respectively. According to the histologic

subgroup, patients with adenocarcinoma presented

significantly higher levels of CEA at baseline than those

with other histology. Significantly increased levels of SCC

and Cyfra 21-1 at baseline were present in squamous cell

carcinoma. Proportion of patients with increased NSE at

baseline was higher in small cell carcinoma than other

histology. For the group of 105 NSCLC patients, the median

survival was 7 months for patients with increased post-

CCRT NSE and 26 months for patients with normal post-

CCRT NSE (p=0.002). For the group of 74 small cell

carcinoma patients, the median survival was 7 months for

patients with increased pre-CCRT NSE and 27 months for

patients with normal pre-CCRT NSE (p<0.001). In the

multivariate analysis, high level of NSE, histology, and

tumor diameter were significantly correlated with worse

survival.

Conclusion

These findings suggest that pre- and post-CCRT NSE levels

exhibit prognostic values in patients with lung cancer

undergoing definitive CCRT. The combined use of serum

NSE may provide additional information for prognosis.

Purpose or Objective

To investigate the role of radiotherapy (RT) in the

management of EGFR-mutant or ALK positive metastatic

non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with TKI at

onset or after standard chemotherapy

Material and Methods

Clinical data of 50 patients (pts) treated with RT

concomitant to TKI for EGFR-mutant or ALK positive NSCLC

stage IV were revised. Overall survival (OS) and toxicities

were analysed as endpoint of the study. Kaplan-Meyer

curve and log-rank test were elaborated for analysis of

survival, while chi-square test was calculated to compare

different variables.

Results

A description of the series is reported in Table 1. Median

age of pts was 65 years. Biological targeted therapy for

EGFR-mutant and ALK positive metastatic NSCLC was used

in 82% and 18% of cases. Three pts were submitted to 2

TKI. Stereotactic radiotherapy was performed in 9 pts, 8

of them were treated for oligoprogressive disease and 1

for palliation (p 0.00). RT was performed within 30 days

before TKI, concomitant to TKI and within 30 days after

TKI in 8, 33 and 9 cases. Median duration of biological

targeted therapy in the whole series was 11.9 (0.4-59.1)

months, while was of 9.7 (0.4-33.5), 14.2 (1.7-59.1) and

8.3 (4.6-17.9) months for pts treated with RT before,

concomitant and after TKI, respectively. Median OS was

19.3 months and 1 and 2 yrs OS was 71.5% and 36.5%,

respectively. Stereotactic RT group showed an apparent

significant benefit in term of OS (p= 0.043). Fourteen pts

reported G1-2 toxicities (7 neurological symptoms, 3 pain

and 4 emesis), none determined the suspension of RT. No

dermatitis

were

observed.

.

Conclusion

Biological targeted therapy with TKI is a recent

opportunity to treat stage IV NSCLC with EGFR mutations

or ALK translocation but scarce data are available on the

effects of combined treatment. Our analysis shows that RT

concomitant to TKI is feasible and safe with satisfying OS

and RT related toxicities were not higher than expected.

Purpose or Objective

Concurrent radiochemotherapy (RCHT) is the standard

treatment in locally advanced small cell lung cancer

(SCLC) patients. Due to conflicting results on elective

nodal irradiation (ENI) or selective node irradiation (SNI)

there is no clear evidence on optimal target volumes.

Therefore, the aims of this study were the evaluation of

sites of recurrent disease in patients with limited stage

SCLC undergoing radiochemotherapy to assess the

feasibility and safety of SNI

versus

ENI and, moreover, the

extraction of prognostic factors for loco-regional control,

freedom from distant metastases and overall survival.

Material and Methods

A retrospective single-institution study was performed in

54 consecutive patients treated with RCHT. After state-of-

the-art staging, all patients underwent three-dimensional

conformal radiotherapy to a total dose of 45 Gy in twice-

daily fractions of 1.5 Gy starting concurrently with the

first or second chemotherapy cycle. The gross tumour

volume (GTV) consisted of the primary tumour and SNI

visualized on CT and/or FDG-PET, or confirmed by

cytology. The clinical target volume (CTV) was obtained

by expanding the GTV, adjusting it for anatomical

boundaries, and electively adding the supraclavicular

lymph node stations. Thereafter, the CTV was expanded

to a planning target volume based on institutional

guidelines. Follow-up consisted of a 3-monthly chest x-ray

or CT-scan up to 5 years after RCHT. All sites of loco-

regional recurrences were correlated to the initial tumour

and dose delivered. The impact of potential prognostic

variables on outcome was evaluated using the Cox-

regression model.
