    Definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy outcomes in Stage IIIB nonsmall cell lung cancer patients younger than 45 years: A retrospective analysis of 145 patients
    (2020) Topkan, Erkan; Guler, Ozan Cem; Ozdemir, Yurday; 0000-0001-6908-3412; 0000-0002-2218-2074; 0000-0001-8120-7123; 32930115; AAC-5654-2020; AAG-5629-2021; AAG-2213-2021
    Purpose: To assess the survival outcomes and prognostic factors of young (<= 45 years) Stage IIIB nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (C-CRT). Materials and Methods: Medical records of 145 Stage IIIB NSCLC patients (<= 45 years) who received 60-66 Gy thoracic radiotherapy and concurrent 1-3 cycles of cisplatin-based doublet chemotherapy were retrospectively evaluated. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), while locoregional progression-free survival (LRPFS), progression-free survival (PFS), and evaluation of potential prognostic factors constituted the secondary endpoints. Results: At median 21.6 months (range: 7.3-62.5) of follow-up, the median and 4-year survival estimates were 24.8 months and 24.2% for OS, 15.7 months and 18.9%, for LRPFS and 12.0 months and 11.2% for PFS, respectively. On univariate analyses, among all factors, the smaller tumor size (<= 7.0 cm; P = 0.03), lower T-stage (T1-T2; P = 0.02), lower N-stage (N2; P = 0.01), absence of anemia before C-CRT (hemoglobin [Hb] >= 12 g/dL; P < 0.001), and lower/no pretreatment weight loss (WL 5%; P < 0.001) were found to be associated significantly with longer median OS durations, which also retained their independent significance on multivariate analyses, except for tumor size category. Conclusions: The encouraging median 24.8 months OS duration observed here in young NSCLC patients accords well with the results of recent landmark locally advanced NSCLC series without age stratification. Other than the well-established T and N stages, extra exhibit of superior OS in patients with initial Hb 12 g/dL and <= 5% WL levels suggests a noteworthy prognostic role for these two latter variables in the stratification of such patients.

    Prognostic value of pretreatment Glasgow prognostic score in stage IIIB geriatric non-small cell lung cancer patients undergoing radical chemoradiotherapy
    (2019) Topkan, Erkan; Bolukbasi, Yasemin; Ozdemir, Yurday; Besen, Ali Ayberk; Mertsoylu, Huseyin; Selek, Ugur; 31178158
    Objectives: To investigate the prognostic significance of pre-treatment Glasgow prognostic score (GPS) in stage 11113 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) older patients treated with radical concurrent chemoradiotherapy (C-CRT). Materials and Methods: We included 83 stage IIIB NSCLC older patients (age > 70 years) treated with C-CRT consisting of 60-66 Gy (2 Gy/fx) thoracic radiotherapy and at least 1 cycle of platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients were grouped into three: GPS-0: c-reactive protein (CRP) <= 10 mg/L and albumin >35 g/L, GPS-1: CRP <= 10 mg/L and albumin <= 35 g/L or CRP > 10 mg/L and albumin >35 g/L, GPS-2: CRP > 10 mg/L and albumin <= 35 g/L according to the definition. The relationship between GPS groups and overall survival (OS) was the primary objective, while locoregional-(LRPFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were secondary objectives. Results: For the whole cohort, the median OS, LRPFS, and OS were 19.7 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 16.8-22.6), 13.2 (95% CI: 8.7-17.7), and 83 months (95% CI: 6.6-10.0), respectively. Comparisons between the GPS-0, GPS-1, and GPS-2 groups revealed that the lower GPS was associated with significantly superior median OS (25.8 versus 16.3 versus 9.4 months; p < .001) which retained its independent significance in multivariate analysis (p < .001), as well. Similarly, the respective median LRPFS (20.0 versus 10.4 versus 63 months; p < .001), and PFS (11.3 versus 73 versus 4.1 months; p < .001) durations were also significantly longer in the earlier GPS groups. Discussion: The present results suggested that the GPS was useful in three layered stratification of older stage IIIB NSCLC patients undergoing C-CRT in terms of OS, LRPS, and PFS times.
