The role of HER-2/neu expression on the survival of patients with lung cancer: a systematic review of the literature.

C-erbB-2 prognostic value for survival in patients with lung cancer remains controversial. We performed a systematic review of the literature to clarify its impact. Studies were identified by an electronic search in order to aggregate the survival results, after a methodological assessment using the scale of the European Lung Cancer Working Party. To be eligible, a study had to deal with c-erbB-2 assessment in lung cancer patients and to analyse survival according to c-erbB-2 expression. In total, 30 studies were eligible: 24 studies dealt with non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), five with adenocarcinoma and one study dealt with small-cell carcinoma. In all, 31% of the patients were positive for c-erbB-2. According to c-erbB-2 expression, 13 studies were 'negative' (significant detrimental effect on survival), one 'positive' (significant survival improvement) and 16 not significant. Significant studies had a better subscore relative to analysis and results report than nonsignificant studies. In total, 86% of the significant studies and only 56% of the nonsignificant studies were evaluable for the meta-analysis. This suggests a possible bias in our aggregated results. For NSCLC, the hazard ratio was 1.55 (95% CI: 1.29-1.86) in favour of tumours that do not express c-erbB-2. In conclusion, the overexpression of c-erbB-2 might be a factor of poor prognosis for survival in NSCLC, but there is a potential bias in favour of the significant studies with an overestimation risk of the magnitude of the true effect of c-erbB-2 overexpression.

Role of Bcl-2 as a prognostic factor for survival in lung cancer: a systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis.

The role of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 in lung cancer remains controversial. In order to clarify its impact on survival in small and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we performed a systematic review of the literature. Trials were selected for further analysis if they provided an independent assessment of Bcl-2 in lung cancer and reported analysis of survival data according to Bcl-2 status. To make it possible to aggregate survival results of the published studies, their methodology was assessed using a quality scale designed by the European Lung Cancer Working Party (including study design, laboratory methods and analysis). Of 28 studies, 11 identified Bcl-2 expression as a favourable prognostic factor and three linked it with poor prognosis; 14 trials were not significant. No differences in scoring measurement were detected between the studies, except that significantly higher scores were found in the trials with the largest sample sizes. Assessments of methodology and of laboratory technique were made independently of the conclusion of the trials. A total of 25 trials, comprising 3370 patients, provided sufficient information for the meta-analysis. The studies were categorised according to histology, disease stage and laboratory technique. The combined hazard ratio (HR) suggested that a positive Bcl-2 status has a favourable impact on survival: 0.70 (95% confidence interval 0.57-0.86) in seven studies on stages I-II NSCLC; 0.50 (0.39-0.65) in eight studies on surgically resected NSCLC; 0.91 (0.76-1.10) in six studies on any stage NSCLC; 0.57 (0.41-0.78) in five studies on squamous cell cancer; 0.75 (0.61-0.93) and 0.71 (0.61-0.83) respectively for five studies detecting Bcl-2 by immunohistochemistry with Ab clone 100 and for 13 studies assessing Bcl-2 with Ab clone 124; 0.92 (0.73-1.16) for four studies on small cell lung cancer; 1.26 (0.58-2.72) for three studies on neuroendocrine tumours. In NSCLC, Bcl-2 expression was associated with a better prognosis. The data on Bcl-2 expression in small cell lung cancer were insufficient to assess its prognostic value.

Leucopenia is an independent predictor in cancer patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation: a prognostic factor analysis in a series of 168 patients.

OBJECTIVE: To determine prognostic factors predicting success of invasive mechanical ventilation in medical cancer patients admitted to ICU for a complication, in terms of extubation and ICU and hospital discharges. DESIGN: Retrospective study SETTING: Medical ICU of an European cancer hospital. SUBJECTS: A total of 168 consecutive cancer patients who were admitted to ICU for an acute medical complication requiring immediate mechanical ventilation or who later needed mechanical ventilation. MEASUREMENTS: Variables related to the demographic, cancer, scores and complication characteristics. Extubation rates, ICU and hospital mortalities and duration of survival were measured. RESULTS: Respectively, 26%, 22% and 17% of the patients were extubated, discharged from the ICU and discharged from hospital. For weaning from mechanical ventilation, a higher APACHE II score and leucopenia were poor prognostic factors in univariate analysis, but leucopenia remained the only significant one in multivariate analysis. For ICU mortality, no significant prognostic feature was identified. For hospital mortality, leucopenia was the only significant factor in univariate as well as in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSION: Leucopenia appeared to be the only independent poor prognostic factor for both extubation and hospital discharge. None of the variables related to the cancer disease process was shown to be a predictor of success.

Citation indexes do not reflect methodological quality in lung cancer randomised trials.

BACKGROUND: Citation factors are applied to assess scientific work despite the fact that they were developed commercially in order to compare competing journals. The aim of the present study was to determine whether there is a relationship between citation factors and a trial's methodological quality using published randomised trials in lung cancer clinical research. Material and methods All of the randomised trials included in nine systematic reviews performed by the European Lung Cancer Working Party (ELCWP) were assessed using two quality scales (Chalmers and ELCWP). RESULTS: One hundred and eighty-one articles were eligible. The median overall ELCWP and Chalmers quality scores were 61.8% and 49.0%, respectively, with a correlation coefficient (r(s)) of 0.74 (P <0.001). A weak association was observed between citation factors and quality scores with the respective correlation coefficients ranging from 0.18 to 0.40 (ELCWP scale) and from 0.21 to 0.38 (Chalmers scale). American authors published trials significantly more often in journals with high citation factors than European or non-American authors (P <0.0001), despite no better methodological quality. Positive trials, which were significantly more likely to be published in journals with higher citation factors, were of no better quality than negative ones. CONCLUSION: Journals with higher citation factors do not appear to publish clinical trials with higher levels of methodological quality, at least for trials in the field of lung cancer research.

Successful treatment of intractable hiccup with methylphenidate in a lung cancer patient.

In a 56-year-old man with metastatic small-cell lung cancer, a persistent hiccup was refractory to classic treatments. Hyponatremia, neoplasic mediastinal involvement and liver metastases were though to be potential causative factors. Methylphenidate (MTP), a mild central nervous system (CNS) stimulant that is most commonly used for the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, was started at a daily dose of 10 mg. It was rapidly efficient and well tolerated. This report suggests a potential advantage of MTP in the treatment of intractable hiccup in cancer patients.

The role of microvessel density on the survival of patients with lung cancer: a systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis.

In order to determine whether angiogenesis is a prognostic marker in lung cancer, we performed a systematic review of the literature to assess the prognostic value on survival of microvessel count in patients with lung cancer. Published studies were identified by an electronic search in order to aggregate survival results, after a methodological assessment using a quality scale designed by the European Lung Cancer Working Party. To be eligible, a study had to deal with microvessel count assessment in lung cancer patients on the primary site and to provide survival analysis according to microvessel count expression. Microvessel count has been assessed on surgical samples by immunohistochemistry using factor VIII in 14 studies, CD34 in 10 and CD31 in eight. Respectively 1866, 1440 and 1093 non-small cell lung cancer patients were considered. The overall median quality scores were respectively 52, 59 and 59% for studies assessing microvessel count via factor VIII, CD34 and CD31, without significant difference between studies evaluable or not for meta-analysis nor between studies with significant or non significant results. Seven 'factor VIII' studies, nine 'CD34' and seven 'CD31' provided sufficient data allowing a meta-analysis on survival and were evaluable for results aggregation. This showed that a high microvessel count in the primitive lung tumour was a statistically significant poor prognostic factor for survival in non small cell lung cancer whatever it was assessed by factor VIII (HR: 1.81; 95% CI: 1.16-2.84), CD34 (HR: 1.99; 95% CI: 1.53-2.58) or CD31 (HR: 1.80; 95% CI: 1.10-2.96). Variations in survival among the individual studies can be explained in addition to patients selection criteria by the heterogeneous methodologies used to stain and count microvessels: different antibody clones, identification of 'hotspots', Weidner or Chalkey counting method, cut-off selection. Microvessel count, reflecting the angiogenesis, appears to be a poor prognostic factor for survival in surgically treated non small cell lung cancer but standardisation of angiogenesis assessment by the microvessel count is necessary.

Age and treatment of non-small-cell lung cancer: a database analysis in elderly patients.

The present study was conducted to determine whether it is justifiable to adapt treatment to age in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). All NSCLC patients treated at the Institut Jules Bordet who were 75 years old or over were prospectively entered in our database. Patients were divided into those who were "eligible" and those who were "ineligible" for clinical trials according to the standard criteria used by the ELCWP. The 604 consecutive patients treated for NSCLC between March 1995 and August 2001 included 60 (9.9%) aged 75 years or over. Their principal characteristics were as follows: median age 78 years (75-93); male-to-female ratio 45/15; stages I/II/III/IV in 16/1/23/18 cases (in 2 cases complete work-up was refused by the patient); squamous/glandular/other histology in 23/24/13 cases; the median performance status was 70 (30-100). Except for their age, 37 patients met the eligibility criteria for the ELCWP standard treatment study protocol in progress during the study period. Twenty-five (67.6%) of these patients received an adequate treatment according to the stage of the disease, and 5 (13.5%) refused conventional therapy and received less aggressive treatment or none at all. For 7 (18.9%) patients, an adapted treatment was chosen solely on the basis of their age. For patients with disease in stages I-III who underwent adequate treatment survival rates were equivalent to the results found in the literature, with median survival times of 770 days and 262 days for those with stage I-II and those with stage III disease, respectively. Survival rates for patients with stage IV disease ranged from 10 days to 17 months. NSCLC patients 75 years of age or more without significant co-morbidities can probably be treated in the same way as younger people with similar survival rates if their disease is in stages I-III. Because the number of patients was too small, our data do not allow us to provide meaningful conclusions for stage IV disease.

Vibrio cholerae bacteremia in a neutropenic patient with non-small-cell lung carcinoma.

Vibrio cholerae was isolated from the blood cultures of a neutropenic patient treated with chemotherapy for non-small-cell lung cancer. Attempts to isolate Vibrio spp. from a rectal swab and stool were unsuccessful. Piperacillin/tazobactam treatment resulted in eradication of the microorganism from the patient's blood. Although Vibrio spp. have occasionally been the source of infection in immunocompromised patients, this report describes the first case of non-0:1 Vibrio cholerae bacteremia in a neutropenic patient with a solid tumour.

Noninvasive ventilation: application to the cancer patient admitted in the intensive care unit.

The objective of this retrospective study of prospectively registered patients was to determine the usefulness and efficacy of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in cancer patients admitted to the medical intensive care unit of an European cancer hospital for a medical complication, as reflected in discharges from the intensive care unit (ICU) and from hospital. The subjects were a total of 40 consecutive cancer patients (28 with solid tumours and 12 with haematological malignancies) who required immediate or delayed NIV. Variables relating to demographic parameters, severity scores, cancer characteristics, intensive care data and hospital discharge were recorded. The complications making NIV necessary were hypoxaemic pneumonia in 32.5%, hypercapnic ventilatory failure in 30%, multifactorial respiratory failure in 17.5%, acute haemodynamic oedema in 10%, acute respiratory distress syndrome in 2.5%, alveolar haemorrhage in 2.5%, pulmonary embolism in 2.5% and lysis pneumopathy in 2.5%. Most of the patients, 57.5% and 42.5%, respectively, were discharged from the ICU and from the hospital. Among the 10 patients (25%) who required salvage invasive mechanical ventilation, only 1 was discharged from hospital. Sixty-four per cent of the solid tumour patients and 42% of those with haematological malignancies were discharged from the ICU and 50% and 25%, respectively, from the hospital. NIV thus appears to be an effective form of ventilatory support for cancer patients, including those with solid tumours.

A phase II study testing paclitaxel as second-line single agent treatment for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer failing after a first-line chemotherapy.

The purpose of this study was to determine the activity of paclitaxel as a second-line chemotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This multicentric trial included patients who had failed to a first-line chemotherapy with platinum derivatives and/or ifosfamide. After registration, patients were treated by paclitaxel i.v. at a dose of 225 mg/m(2) given over 3 h administered every 3 weeks. Response was assessed after three courses of therapy. Sixty-seven patients were registered, one was ineligible and 64 were assessable for response. Two partial responses were observed (3% of the eligible patients; 95% confidence interval: 0-7%). No change was documented in 16 cases (24%). Tolerance was acceptable, the main toxicity being cumulative polyneuropathy. Median survival duration was 4.5 months with a 1-year rate at 19%. We concluded that paclitaxel is not active in terms of response as second-line chemotherapy for NSCLC.

Role of granulocyte and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factors in the treatment of small-cell lung cancer: a systematic review of the literature with methodological assessment and meta-analysis.

In order to clarify the role of haematological colony-stimulating factors (CSF) in the treatment of small-cell lung cancer, we performed a systematic review of the randomised trials published on this topic. Since 1991, 12 studies were eligible, including a total of 2107 randomised patients. They were divided into three groups: (1) maintenance of dose-intensity when chemotherapy was given at conventional doses and time intervals (seven trials); (2) accelerated chemotherapy with increased dose-intensity by reducing the delay between chemotherapy cycles (five trials); (3) concentration of chemotherapy on an overall shorter duration time with a lower number of cycles (one trial). Before quantitative aggregation, we performed a methodological assessment using two previously published quality scales (Chalmers and ELCWP). The median quality scores for the pooled 12 trials was 59.9% (range: 42.2-82.0%) for the ELCWP scale and 55.8% (range: 38.0-76.8%) for the Chalmers scale. No statistically significant difference was observed between positive (significant) and negative (non-significant) studies allowing us to perform a meta-analysis. A detrimental effect on response rate was associated with CSF administration in the maintenance group (RR 0.92; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.87-0.97) without significant effect on survival (HR 1.004; 95% CI, 0.89-1.13). In the accelerated group, no significant impact on response rate (RR 1.02; 95% CI, 0.94-1.09) or survival (HR 0.82; 95% CI, 0.67-1.00) was found. Although no difference in response rate was observed, a reduced survival was associated with concentrated chemotherapy. In conclusion, the published data do not support the routine use of haematological colony-stimulating factors in the treatment of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC).

Activity of chemotherapy and immunotherapy on malignant mesothelioma: a systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis.

The role of chemotherapy for unresectable malignant mesothelioma is unclear. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the methodological quality of published papers relative to chemotherapy or immunotherapy in malignant mesothelioma and to aggregate, for trials having a similar methodology, the response rates in order to identify the most active chemotherapeutic drugs and regimens. The literature relative to this topic, published between 1965 and June 2001 was reviewed. A methodological qualitative evaluation was performed according to the European Lung Cancer Working Party scale, specifically designed for phase II trials. A study was considered as potentially positive if the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval (CI) of the response rate was greater than 20% and positive if the lower limit of the 95% CI was > 20%. Eighty-three studies (88 treatment arms) were eligible for the systematic review. Fifty-three arms were considered as positive or potentially positive. No statistically significant difference in the methodological quality was observed between negative and positive studies. Studies were aggregated in four groups according to the presence of cisplatin and/or doxorubicin in the treatment regimen. The combination of cisplatin and doxorubicin had the highest response rate (28.5%; P < 0.001). Cisplatin was the most active single-agent regimen. Our systematic qualitative and quantitative overview of the literature suggests that the most active chemotherapeutic regimen, in term of objective response rate, is the combination of cisplatin and doxorubicin and the best single-agent is cisplatin. The combination of these two drugs can be recommended as control arm for future randomised phase III trials.

A three-arm phase III randomised trial comparing combinations of platinum derivatives, ifosfamide and/or gemcitabine in stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To determine, in stage IV non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), if the combination of gemcitabine-a new active drug-with ifosfamide (IG) or with the cisplatin-carboplatin association (CCG) will improve survival (primary end point) in comparison with a first-generation regimen, cisplatin-carboplatin-ifosfamide (CCI). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 284 chemotherapy-naïve patients with metastatic NSCLC were randomised. Four were ineligible and 16 were not assessable for responses. Cisplatin was given at 60 mg/m2 on day 1, carboplatin AUC 3 mg.min/ml on day 1, ifosfamide 4.5 g/m2 on day 1 and gemcitabine 1 g/m2 on days 1, 8 and 15. Courses were repeated every 4 weeks. Response was assessed after three courses and chemotherapy was continued in responding patients until best response. There were 94 eligible patients in the CCI arm, 92 in CCG and 94 in the IG arm. RESULTS: The objective response rates for CCI, CCG and IG were 23% [95% confidence interval (CI) 15% to 32%], 29% (95% CI 20% to 39%) and 25% (95% CI 16% to 33%), respectively ( P = 0.61). Median survival time was 24, 34 and 30 weeks, respectively (P = 0.20). One-year survival was 23, 33 and 35%, and 2-year survival was 11, 14 and 17%, respectively. In some subgroups (older patients, women), there was a significant survival advantage for CCG and IG compared with CCI. Toxicity was tolerable: severe alopecia was less frequent in the CCG arm, and IG was associated with significantly more thrombopenia while CCG was associated with more leucopenia. CONCLUSION: In stage IV NSCLC, treatment with regimens including the new drug gemcitabine were associated with a better but not statistically significant observed survival compared with a classical first-generation cisplatin-containing regimen. The non-platinum combination of gemcitabine was as effective as its combination with platinum.

A phase II randomised trial comparing the cisplatin-etoposide combination chemotherapy with or without carboplatin as second-line therapy for small-cell lung cancer.

BACKGROUND: A phase II randomised trial was performed with patients with SCLC to determine if the addition of carboplatin to cisplatin-etoposide might improve the response rate in second-line therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sixty-five eligible patients were randomised: 31 for CE (cisplatin 20 mg/m(2) and etoposide 100 mg/m(2) on days 1-3) and 34 for CCE (carboplatin 200 mg/m(2) on day 1, cisplatin 30 mg/m(2) on days 2-3, etoposide 100 mg/m(2) on days 1-3). RESULTS: Eighty-two per cent of these patients had an objective response to first-line therapy and, among responders, 63% had a treatment-free interval of >3 months after previous therapy. The best response rates were 29% [95% confidence interval (CI) 13-45] and 47% (95% CI 30-64) for CE and CCE, respectively, with median survival times of 4.3 and 7.6 months. Dose-intensity analysis revealed a significant improvement in the relative dose-intensity and etoposide absolute dose-intensity for CE. Toxicity was tolerable and comparable between the two study arms. CONCLUSION: CCE appears to be associated with a high objective response rate. The phase II randomised study design suggests that a comparison between the two regimens in a phase III trial would be interesting, but will probably be difficult to perform for reasons of accrual.

The role of EGF-R expression on patient survival in lung cancer: a systematic review with meta-analysis.

The prognostic value of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) for survival of patients with lung cancer remains controversial. The authors performed a systematic review of the literature in order to clarify its impact. Published studies were identified using an electronic search in order to aggregate the available survival results, after a methodological assessment using a scale specifically designed by the European Lung Cancer Working Party (ELCWP). To be eligible, a study had to have dealt with EGF-R assessment in lung cancer patients on the primary site and to have analysed survival according to EGF-R expression. Among the 16 eligible studies, 14 assessed any nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) subtype, one adenocarcinoma only and one squamous-cell carcinoma only. The overall median quality score was 56.3%, with no significant difference either between studies assessable or not assessable for meta-analysis or between studies with significant and nonsignificant results. One individual trial reported a survival benefit for patients with EGF-R expression, three a survival disadvantage and 12 no statistically significant difference. Eleven studies (2,185 patients) provided sufficient data to allow a meta-analysis of the survival results. EGF-R expression positivity was determined according to the cut-off as determined by the authors. The meta-analysis showed that EGF-R expression was not a statistically significant prognostic factor for survival in NSCLC. In the subgroup of studies using immunohistochemistry, statistical tests reached a significant level against EGF-R. Epidermal growth factor receptor might be a poor prognostic factor for survival in nonsmall-cell lung cancer. The amplitude of the impact is small, however, and may be subject to publication bias.

[VEGF and survival of patients with lung cancer: a systematic literature review and meta-analysis].

The process of angiogenesis is an important factor in tumour development. One of the principal factors implicated in this process is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) which induces, among other things, an increase in vascular permeability. We have undertaken a systematic review of the English and French literature in order to clarify its effect on the survival of patients with small cell (SCLC) and non-small cell (NSCLC) lung cancer. To be eligible studies had to deal with the the evaluation of VEGF or its receptors in lung cancer and describe the relationship of their expression to survival. The survival figures were subject to meta-analysis after a methodological evaluation by means of a specific numerical scale evaluating the design of the study, the methodology (including laboratory techniques), and the analysis of results. Among the 20 studies selected 15 identified VEGF expression, using univariate analysis, as a statistically significant indicator of poor prognosis. 17 reported sufficient data to allow aggregation of the survival figures, of which 15 were devoted to NSCLC (1,549 patients). The median overall methodological score was 48.3% (range 21.8-72.4%), without significant difference (p=0.63) between studies eligible or non-eligible for meta-analysis. The meta-analysis, using the authors' threshold of positivity for VEGF, showed that VEGF is an unfavourable prognostic factor in NSCLC (HR=1.48; 95% confidence interval 1.27-1.72). The data were insufficient to determine the prognostic value of VEGF in SCLC and that of its two receptors Flt-1 and KDR, with 1, 2 and 1 published studies respectively. In conclusion the expression of VEGF in MSCLC is a factor indicating a poor prognosis.

Therapeutic use of granulocyte and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factors in febrile neutropenic cancer patients. A systematic review of the literature with meta-analysis.

The effectiveness of granulocyte and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF and GM-CSF) in the treatment of febrile neutropenic cancer patients remains controversial. To assess their role in this condition, we conducted a systematic review of randomised trials published as full papers. A methodological evaluation using a specifically designed quality scale was performed before meta-analysis. Eleven trials were eligible, 8 of which were meta-analysable. The median quality score for the 11 pooled trials was 58.3% (range: 33.3%-68.8%). No significant quality difference was observed between positive (colony-stimulating factor more effective) and negative trials ( P=0.36). No quality difference was observed between the 8 meta-analysable studies and the 3 others, with respective median scores of 59.3% and 50%. No advantage was detected for the use of CSF in terms of mortality from febrile neutropenia, with a relative risk of 0.71 (95% CI 0.44-1.15). The relative risk was 0.66 (95% CI 0.39-1.13) in the G-CSF subgroup and 0.97 (95% CI 0.34-2.79) in the GM-CSF subgroup. Aggregation of the results on infection-related mortality, length of stay in hospital, fever and of neutropenia duration, antibiotic therapy adaptation and duration, superinfection rate and toxicity was not possible owing to the lack of adequate data in the publications. On the basis of this review, we cannot recommend the routine use of G-CSF or GM-CSF in established febrile neutropenia.
