ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The developments of perioperative treatments for patients with high-risk early-stage lung cancer are ongoing, however, real-world data and evidence of clinical significance of genetic aberration are lacking in this population. This study aimed to identify patients with early-stage lung adenocarcinoma at high risk for recurrence based on pathological indicators of poor prognosis, including the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) grade, and elucidate the prognostic impact of epidermal growth factor receptor mutation (EGFRm) status.METHODS:
This retrospective study included 494 consecutive patients who underwent complete resection for pathological stage I lung adenocarcinoma between 2011 and 2016. The patients were evaluated for EGFRm and IASLC grade. Multivariable analysis was used to identify pathological factors for poor prognosis associated with recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients with any one of these factors were classified into the high-risk group. The prognostic impact of EGFRm was evaluated using RFS, OS, and cumulative recurrence proportion.RESULTS:
Multivariable analysis for RFS and OS revealed that IASLC grade 3, pathological invasion size>2 cm, and presence of lymphovascular invasion were indicators of poor prognosis. EGFRm-positive patients had a higher incidence of all types of recurrence, including central nervous system (CNS) metastasis and distant metastasis in high-risk group, but not in low-risk group.CONCLUSIONS:
This study provides evidence that patients with EGFRm-positive stage I lung adenocarcinoma in the high-risk group have an increased risk of recurrence, including CNS metastasis. These findings highlight the need for development of adjuvant treatment in this population.Palabras clave
