Sublobar Resection and Intraoperative Brachytherapy for Lung Cancer: ACOSOG Update Rodney J. Landreneau, MD Professor of Surgery The Heart Lung and Esophageal Surgery Institute University of Pittsburgh Medical Center Surgical Treatment of Lung Cancer Radiofrequency Ablation to VATS Lobectomy November 13-14, 2008 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Surgical Resection of the Lung Standard of Care for Peripheral Nodules 1940’s Pneumonectomy 1960’s Lobectomy 1990’s ? Segmentectomy/Wedge (and adjuvant local/systemic Rx) Background ● Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) identified in patients with impaired cardiopulmonary reserve creates important therapeutic challenges. ● Sublobar pulmonary resection is often utilized in these patients, however, local recurrence is high (15-25%). How Can Therapy to Customized for Patients with Poor Cardiopulmonary Reserve? ● Primary external beam radiation therapy - ? survival ● Chemotherapy - no defined role as primary therapy ● Radiofrequency Ablation - ? survival ● Sublobar resection ● Sublobar resection with adjuvant radiation therapy Background ● Postoperative (postop) external radiotherapy following sublobar resection is time consuming and can result in additional loss of pulmonary function. ● We review our experience using intraoperative 125I lodine brachytherapy following sublobar resection of stage I NSCLC in patients with impaired cardiopulmonary reserve. Methods ● From 1/1989 to 7/1994, 102 patients (mean age 69.5 years) with pathologic stage I NSCLC and poor cardiopulmonary reserve (mean % predicated FEV 1 preop = 65%) underwent sublobar resection as primary therapy. ● We have since (1/1997 to 6/2002) introduced adjunctive intraoperative brachytherapy with 125I to sublobar resection among 96 stage I patients with similar cardiopulmonary compromise (mean % predicted FEV1 preop = 53%). Methods ● After resection, a vicryl™ implant containing 125I seeds, sewn at 1cm² intervals, was placed over the resection staple line covering a 2cm lateral margin. A local radiation does of 10,000 cGy was delivered. ● No post-op patient isolation was required per national radiation safety guidelines ● Mortality and morbidity, local recurrence and disease free survival have been compared. Results Sublobar Resection (n=102) Sublobar Resection With Brachy (n=96) Local Recurrence 19 (18.6%) 1 (1%) p=.0001 Hospital Mortality 0 (0%) 3 (3%) p=ns Hospital Stay 7 days 8 days p=ns 93, 73, 68, 60% 96, 82, 70, 67% p=ns 29 (28.4) 22 (23%) p=ns 65% 53% p=ns Survival % 1, 2, 3 and 4 year Systemic Recurrence Pre-op FEV 1% predicted ● The FEV 1 did not change postoperatively in the sublobar resection with brachytherapy group in the interval of follow-up Conclusions ● Local recurrence of NSCLC following sublobar resection with intra-operative 125Ibrachytherapy (1%) appears to be less than following sublobar resection alone (18.6%). ● This safe, pulmonary function preserving, and practical intra-operative brachytherapy method may be considered when sublobar resection is utilized as compromise therapy of stage I NSCLC.
