  1. TURKISH THORACİC SOCIETY 9 th ANNUAL CONGRESS Neoadjuvant Therapy in Early Stage Lung Cancer Prof. Metin GORGUNER gorguner@atauni.edu.tr 19 – 23 April 2006, Sungate Port Royal, Kemer/Antalya/TÜRKİYE

  2. In memory of our dear colleague…

  3. Lung Cancer: Still a major problem ! • Every year approx.; 800.000 – 1.000.000 death • Of all cancer deaths; Man: 31%, Woman: 25% • Median survival; Approximately 8 month • Total 5-year survival ; % 8 % 15

  4. Survival According to the Stage * Extrathoracic micrometastatic involvement with no determined by available diagnostic methods is present approx. 60% of patients. Silvestri GA et al. Chest 2003; 123: 147-56s.

  5. Goldie and Coldman Hypothesis • Drug resistance in tumors exposed to cytotoxic agents • Drug-resistant mutations arise spontaneously at a measurable frequency • The larger the tumor burden, the more likely a mutation will occur • Early, highest dose use of all agents is most likely to prevent multiply resistant clones and, thus, to effect a cure Goldie JH, Coldman AJ. Cancer Treat Rep. 1983; 67:923-31.

  6. Induction / Neoadjuvant Therapy “The use of systemic therapy before definitive local regional therapy”

  7. Induction chemotherapy is based on the Goldie and Coldman Hypothesis: • Less the tumor size • More the tumoral response • Fewer are chemo-resistant cells Souquet PJ, Geriniere L. Lung Cancer2001; 34: S155-S158.

  8. Theoretical Advantages of Neoadjuvant Therapy • Early control of micrometastasis • Reduction in size of primary tumor, thereby improving resectability rates • Can be given at full dosage • Usually better tolerated than adjuvant chemotherapy Ukena U. Lung Cancer2001; 33 (Suppl. 1): S25-S28. Crino L. Lung Cancer 2002; 38: S31-S32.

  9. Disadvantages of Neoadjuvant Therapy Increased morbidity and mortality Ineffective induction regimen Progression of resectable disease

  10. Neoadjuvant Therapy in Early Stage NSCLC “The role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, with or without radiotherapy, in stage-I, -II, and minimal stage-III disease is controversial, Not routinely recommended, For only clinical study ” Betticher DC, Rosell R. Lung Cancer2004; 46 (Suppl. 2): S23-S32.

  11. Superior Sulcus Tumours “Superior sulcus tumours must be regarded as a separate category” ASCO Guideline 2004

  12. Neoadjuvant Therapy in NSCLC • Which has long been investigated for stage III NSCLC • The first studies were small (< 600 pts), mostly phase II, and frequently lacked surgical staging • Was also recently explored in stage I/II

  13. In a Pilot Randomized British Study Phase III Study Design RANDOMIZE ELIGIBLE MVP X 3 cycles SURGERY SURGERY • Clinical stage IB, II, IIIA (resectable 1 pt) • Mediastinoscopy not routinely performed de Boer RH, et al. Br J Cancer1999; 79: 1514-18.

  14. In a Pilot Randomized British StudyIn Conclusion • Objective tumour response was 55% • No severe toxicities • No significant deterioration in QoL • Feasible in early stage NSCLC BUT Only 22 patients ! de Boer RH, et al. Br J Cancer1999; 79: 1514-18.

  15. BLOT (Bimodality Lung Oncology Team) Trial Phase II Study Design Paclitaxel/Carboplatin x 2 Surgery Paclitaxel/Carboplatin x 3 Follow-up • Mediastinoscopy routinely Pisters KMW et al. J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg2000; 119: 429-39.

  21. SWOG 9900 Trial:Preliminary ResultsObjectives • Determine if 3 cycles of preoperative paclitaxel/carboplatin chemotherapy improves survival compared to surgery alone in clinical stage IB, II and IIIA NSCLC • Evaluate response rate and toxicities associated with preoperative chemotherapy • Compare operative mortality and toxicities Pisters K, et al.

  42. NATCH (NeoAdj. TaxCarbo Hope) TrialStudy Design Rosell R, et al.

  43. NATCH TrialGenetic Studies • Genetic markers in serum DNA at baseline, 6 months and 1 year • To prognosis and/or chemoresistance Rosell R, et al.

  44. What about Neoadjuvant Therapy in SCLC ? “The Study of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, in Small Cell Lung Carcinoma is limited”

  45. Wada and colleagues;Surgical TreatmentofSCLC: Advantage of Preoperative Chemotherapy • 46 pts who underwent surgery • 17 pts (37%) neoadjuvant therapy group • 23 pts (50.5%) adjuvant therapy group • The 5-year survival rate of patients with c-Stage I or II disease in the neoadjuvant therapy group was as high as 80.0% (but with no statistical significance, P = 0.10) • Failure to employ preoperative CTx was the strongest poor prognostic factor (P = 0.01) Wada H, et al. Lung Cancer 1995; 13: 45-56.

  46. Nakamura and colleagues;Outcome of Surgery for SCLC – Responseto Induction ChemotherapyPredictsSurvival • 69 pts who underwent complete resection • 32 pts (46%) received induction CT • Overall Response Rate to CTx was 71.9% • Downstaging after induction chemotherapy conferred a survival benefit Nakamura H, et al. Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2004; 52: 206-10.

  47. Conclusion (1) • Neoadjuvant therapy seems promising • Feasibility and safety in selected stage I and II disease was demonstrated • Good patient tolerance and compliance to the chosen chemotherapy • A trend for a survival benefit particularly in early stages I and II • A low rate of primary progression during induction treatment (between 3 and 5%)

  48. Conclusion (2) • No study has yet compared the utility of adjuvant versus neoadjuvant approach • The role of chemotherapy in stage IA ? • The comparison of various CT regimes ? • Molecularly targeted approaches with neoadjuvant therapy in early stage ? • More work is needed to evaluate and optimize this approach
