Editor's Notes
- 10 - hilar nodes; 11 - interlobar nodes; 12 – lobar nodes 13 - segmental; 14 - subsegmental N2 nodes: 1 - highest mediastinal nodes - nodes lying above a horizontal line at the upper rim of the brachiocephalic (left innominate) vein where it ascends to the left, crossing in front of the midline of the trachea 2 - upper paratracheal nodes - nodes lying above a horizontal line drawn tangential to the upper margin of the aortic arch and below the inferior boundary of #1 nodes 4 - lower paratracheal nodes - lie lateral to the midline of the trachea between a horizontal line drawn tangential to the upper margin of the aortic arch and a line extending across the R (or L) main bronchus 7 - subcarinal - caudal to the carina but not associated with the lower lobe bronchi or arteries within the lung 8 - paraesophageal (below carina) - adjacent to the wall of the esophagus, excluding subcarinal nodes 9 - pulmonary ligament - lie within the pulmonary ligament
- 3A and 3P - prevascular (3A) and retrotracheal (3P) nodes 5 - subaortic (AP window) - lateral to the ligamentum arteriosum or the aorta or L pulmonary artery and proximal to the first branch of the L pulmonary A 6 - para-aortic nodes - lie anterior and lateral to the ascending aorta and aortic arch beneath a line tangential to the upper margin of the aortic arch
- The designation non–small cell carcinoma of the lung refers to a group of commonly observed pulmonary neoplasms that are typically associated with cigarette smoking and share the common property of not being responsive to small cell carcinoma treatment protocols
- Tobacco contains over 40 potent carcinogens and among then NNK and PAH are the most important! Murine models indicate that these are known to induce P 53 and K RAS mutation both strongly associated with carcinomas. Asbestos exposure increases the risk of developing lung cancer by as much as 5 times risk of developing lung cancer & persons who currently smoke tobacco and have a history of asbestos exposure approaches 80-90 times that of control populations.
- In a study by Doll and Peto a threefold increase in cigarettes smoked per day increased lung cancer risk threefold, whereas a threefold increase in duration of smoking was associated with a 100-fold increase in lung cancer risk.
- Estimated global incidence of lung cancer is Lung cancer accounts for 5%-13% of all cancers recorded in population based registries in India.
- The NCI-sponsored Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene (ATBC) Cancer Prevention Study was a Phase III trial of α-tocopherol and β-carotene to prevent primary lung cancer. The ATBC study involved 29,133 male smokers between 50 and 69 years of age who had smoked an average of one pack of cigarettes a day for approximately 36 years.83 This trial's 2 × 2 factorial design called for α-tocopherol (50 mg/d) and β-carotene (20 mg/d) to be given in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled fashion. The factorial design allowed the study scientists to assess the individual effects of each agent. Significant increases in lung cancer incidence (18% increase, p = .01) and total mortality (8%, p = .02) occurred in the β-carotene-treated subjects after 6.1 years' median follow-up. α-Tocopherol had no significant impact on the lung cancer mortality rate, and there was no evidence of an interaction between α-tocopherol and β-carotene. The β-carotene results from this large-scale Phase III trial are consistent with experimental lung carcinogenesis studies.84,85 These laboratory data and definitive clinical results contradict the epidemiologic data on β-carotene and underscore the need to confirm data of this type53 before public health recommendations are made. The α-tocopherol group had a long-term nonsignificant trend of reduced lung cancer incidence and a significant positive secondary analysis in prostate cancer, a 32% decrease in incidence and 41% decrease in mortality.86 The Beta-Carotene and Retinol Efficacy Trial (CARET) is the other major NCI Phase III lung cancer chemoprevention trial. This trial tested the combination of β-carotene (30 mg/d) plus retinyl palmitate (25,000 IU/d) in 17,000 smokers and asbestos workers.87 It confirmed the major finding of the ATBC study with its primary finding that the β-carotene combination increased lung cancer risk in this high-risk population. There was no evidence from either the ATBC study or the CARET that β-carotene increased lung cancer risk in non-smokers, former, or moderate (less than one pack a day) smokers.

- As a general guide, the patient can expect to have a 15 per cent reduction in spirometric values if lobectomy proves possible and a 35 to 45 per cent reduction if pneumonectomy is necessary!

- High energy photons (15MeV, 18MeV, etc) may be preferable when used to treat larger GTV’s (gross tumor volumes) surrounded by consolidated and/or atelectic lung tissue, bulky lymphadenopathy or large blood vessels, thus achieving a better dose distribution and also an improved therapeutic ratio.
- In a landmark dose escalation trial, V20 based criteria to select patients for dose escalation, with patients with smaller V20 receiving greater doses! Do we actually need a dose escalation in these patients is anybody’s guess.
- The high incidence of intercurrent death unrelated to disease or treatment indicates the extent of medical morbidity in this subgroup of patients!!

- Preoperative irradiation of cancer of the lung: final report of a therapeutic trial. A collaborative study . Cancer. 1975 Sep;36(3):914-25. Warram J. Between May, 1963 and December, 1966, 17 medical centers cooperated in two separate but integrated therapeutic trials of primary lung cancer. One study was of patients with lesions considered operable at the time of diagnosis, and the other of patients with initially inoperable cancer but who were considered potentially operable after radiotherapy. Patients operable at the time of diagnosis were randomly assigned to receive either immediate surgery (278 patients) or preoperative radiotherapy followed by surgery (290 patients). All but one were followed until death or 5 years survival. Survival to each anniversary after randomization was almost identical for the two groups. At 5 years the survival rate was 14% after preoperative radiotherapy and 16% after immediate surgery. On the basis of the small standard error of the difference between these survival rates, a large advantage or a large disadvantage for preoperative radiotherapy is unlikely. Recurrence of cancer either locally or as distant metastasis was also similar in the two groups. Postoperative mortality was estimated to be 11% in the immediate surgery group, but cannot be estimated in a comparable fashion for the irradiated group. Certain postoperative complications were more frequent in the irradiated group, but survival during the first was not affected. Out of 425 patients initially considered to be inoperable, 152 were considered resectable after radiotherapy. These patients were randomly assigned to have either a thoracotomy and resection of their cancer if possible (78 patients) or no surgery (74 patients). Survival to each anniversary after randomization was very similar. After 5 years the survival rate was 8% for the group assigned to surgery and 6% for the group assigned to no surgery. The difference has a standard error of 4%.

- We seem to have reached a plateau as far as benefit from CCT is concerned as the results of Scagalotti et al show with similar median survival in three CCT regimens.
- Capable of only limited selfcare, confined to bed or chair more than 50% of waking hours.
- Women, Japanese, Adenocarcinomas, BAC and non smokers show better response to EGFR inhibitors as they have a higher frequency of EGFR mutations. ISEL Iressa Survival Evaluation in Lung Cancer trial (2004) phase III study showed median survival was 5.6 mo in pts receiving IRESSA and 5 mo in pts receiving placebo In both INTACT 1 & 2 trials which added Iressa with gemcitabine + paclitaxel and carboplatin + paclitaxel showed that the median survival was 10 months and addition of IRESSA did not make an improvement in survival. In Phase III talent trial Tarceva in combination with gemcitabine + cisplatin failed to reveal any significant benefit in median survival when compared to a placebo (301 vs 309 days favoring placebo) Similar results were seen in the TRIBUTE trial where Carboplatin/paclitaxel + (tarceva or placebo) - Phase III was used.
