Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis is very common in gastrointestinal, reproductive, and genitourinary tract cancers in late stages or postsurgery, causing poor prognosis, so effective and nontoxic prophylactic strategies against peritoneal metastasis are highly imperative. Herein, we demonstrate the first gene transfection as a nontoxic prophylaxis preventing peritoneal metastasis or operative metastatic dissemination. Lipopolyplexes of TNF-related-apoptosis-inducing-ligand (TRAIL) transfected peritonea and macrophages to express TRAIL for over 15 days. The expressed TRAIL selectively induced tumor cell apoptosis while exempting normal tissue, providing long-term tumor surveillance. Therefore, tumor cells inoculated in the pretransfected peritoneal cavity quickly underwent apoptosis and, thus, barely formed tumor nodules, significantly prolonging the mouse survival time compared with chemotherapy prophylaxis. Furthermore, lipopolyplex transfection showed no sign of toxicity. Therefore, this peritoneal TRAIL-transfection is an effective and safe prophylaxis, preventing peritoneal metastasis.

Therapeutic Strategies and Oncological Outcome of Peritoneal Metastases from Lung Cancer: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis. Curr Oncol 2023; 30:2928-2941. [PMID: 36975437 PMCID: PMC10047709 DOI: 10.3390/curroncol30030224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The peritoneum is an unusual site of metastases from lung cancer, and optimal management at the moment remains unclear and mostly based on palliative strategies. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate demographic characteristics, management and overall survival of patients with peritoneal metastases from lung cancer (PCLC). A PRISMA-compliant systematic review and pooled analysis was performed searching all English studies published until December 2022. PROSPERO, CRD42022349362. Inclusion criteria were original articles including patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from lung cancer, specifying at least one outcome of interest. Exclusion criteria were being unable to retrieve patient data from articles, and the same patient series included in different studies. Among 1746 studies imported for screening, twenty-one were included (2783 patients). Mean overall survival was between 0.5 and 5 months after peritoneal carcinomatosis diagnosis and 9 and 21 months from lung cancer diagnosis. In total, 27% of patients underwent first-line or palliative chemotherapy and 7% of them surgery. Management differs significantly among published studies. The literature on PCLC is scarce. Its incidence is low but appears to be substantially rising and is likely to be an underestimation. Prognosis is very poor and therapeutic strategies have been limited and used in a minority of patients. Subcategories of PCLC patients may have an improved prognosis and may benefit from an aggressive oncological approach, including cytoreductive surgery. Further investigation would be needed in this regard.

Abstract
RATIONALE Lung cancer (LC) is a malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality in the world. The most common metastatic sites of LC are the brain (47%), bone (36%), liver (22%), adrenal glands (15%), thoracic cavity (11%) and distant lymph nodes (10%). Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is a rare clinical event in LC patients. Considering the rarity and nonspecific clinical symptoms of peritoneal metastasis among LC patients, a case of peritoneal metastasis secondary to LC incidentally observed by laparoscopic appendectomy is unusual. PATIENT CONCERNS Here, we present a 53-year-old never-smoker woman who presented to the emergency department with a 2-day history of pain in the right abdominal quadrant. Later, laparoscopy revealed acute suppurative appendicitis accompanied by a peritoneal metastatic mass. DIAGNOSIS The patient was diagnosed with PC secondary to metastatic LC complicated with acute suppurative appendicitis by immunohistochemistry. Positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET CT) findings further strengthen the evidence of PC from LC. OUTCOMES Based on the results of genomic analysis, the patient received targeted therapy with osimertinib 80 mg/d. LESSONS Due to the discovery of new targets, the use of molecular therapies improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), which increases the chance of identifying peritoneal metastasis of LC. For LC patients with abdominal symptoms, clinicians should be aware of the possibility of peritoneal metastasis from LC, especially for patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma or with pleural effusion.

Promising Response to Dabrafenib Plus Trametinib in a Patient with Peritoneal Carcinomatosis from Non Small Lung Cancer Harboring BRAF V600E Mutation. Onco Targets Ther 2022; 15:1369-1374. [PMID: 36388158 PMCID: PMC9664913 DOI: 10.2147/ott.s375246] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The prognosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis in patients with lung cancer is poor. However, some cases of peritoneal carcinomatosis from lung cancer harboring specific gene alterations have responded to molecular targeted drugs. B-Raf proto-oncogene (BRAF) mutations occur in about 2–4% of NSCLCs, with about half of these cases having the BRAF V600E mutation. Concomitant inhibition of BRAF with dabrafenib and inhibition of the downstream mitogen-activated protein kinase with trametinib showed efficacy in NSCLC patients with the BRAF V600E mutation. Herein, we report a patient with peritoneal carcinomatosis from lung cancer with the BRAF V600E mutation who responded to dabrafenib plus trametinib. Case Presentation A 67-year-old Japanese male never-smoker was diagnosed with stage IA3 lung adenocarcinoma. He underwent thoracoscopic left lower lobectomy but developed recurrence of the cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis 33 months after the operation. An Oncomine Dx target test of the resected specimen was positive for the BRAF V600E mutation. He was started on dabrafenib 150 mg twice per day and trametinib 2 mg once per day. He had a good clinical response to dabrafenib/trametinib therapy with resolution of abdominal distention. He continued dabrafenib/trametinib treatment without disease progression for 7 months, with no severe adverse effects. Conclusion This case highlights the importance of assessing genetic alterations in lung cancer patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis and treating them with appropriate molecular targeted drugs.

Abstract
Patients with non-small cell lung cancer harboring the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-sensitive mutations are known to benefit significantly from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), such as erlotinib, gefitinib, icotinib, or afatinib. However, the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs against rare mutations has not yet been well investigated. Here, we report a female patient with advanced lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), carrying a rare mutation of EGFR Exon19 E746_L747delinsIP, who was administered first-generation EGFR-TKIs as the first-line treatment. The patient continued to progress slowly until peritoneal metastases have occurred. Subsequently, the patient was treated with anlotinib for 5 months until disease progression. Given the finding of the same EGFR rare mutation in peritoneal effusion without other EGFR-TKI resistance mutations, the patient received afatinib with a tremendous response. Our results may be of clinical relevance for patients with LUAD carrying this rare mutation, and these findings warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Background Metastatic peritoneal carcinomatosis (MPC) is not common in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes are still unclear. Patients and Methods We recruited 46 NSCLC patients with MPC at Keio University and affiliated hospitals (Keio Lung Oncology Group) between January 2011 and December 2017, then retrospectively investigated their clinical characteristics and the impact of treatment interventions on their survival. Results The profile of histological subtype was predominantly adenocarcinoma and 15 patients harbored driver oncogenes. Univariate and multivariate analysis demonstrated that performance status and the presence of a driver oncogene were significantly associated with the prolonged overall survival (OS). Regarding treatment, the median OS in the treatment group (9.3 months) was significantly longer than in the best supportive care group (1.3 months) (P < 0.0001). Conclusion The prognosis of MPC in NSCLC patients who receive only the best supportive care is poor, but therapeutic intervention may improve prognosis.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastases (PM) from lung cancer are rare and it is unknown how they affect the prognosis of patients with lung cancer. This population-based study aimed to assess the incidence, associated factors, treatment and prognosis of PM from lung cancer. Data from the Netherlands Cancer Registry were used. All patients diagnosed with lung cancer between 2008 and 2018 were included. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with the presence of PM. Cox regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with the overall survival (OS) of patients with PM. Between 2008 and 2018, 129,651 patients were diagnosed with lung cancer, of whom 2533 (2.0%) patients were diagnosed with PM. The European Standardized Rate of PM increased significantly from 0.6 in 2008 to 1.4 in 2018 (p < 0.001). Age between 50 and 74 years, T3-4 tumour stage, N2-3 nodal stage, tumour morphology of a small cell lung cancer or adenocarcinoma, and the presence of systemic metastases were associated with the presence of PM. The median OS of patients with PM was 2.5 months. Older age, male sex, T3-4 tumour stage, N2-3 nodal stage, not receiving systemic treatment, and the presence of systemic metastases were associated with a worse OS. Synchronous PM were diagnosed in 2.0% of patients with lung cancer and resulted in a very poor survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a major cause of cancer-related death globally. Endothelial PAS domain-containing protein 1 (EPAS1) is a homolog of the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and has been reported to confer tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance in NSCLC, but its role in peritoneal carcinomatosis of NSCLC is unknown. METHODS PC14HM, a high metastatic potential subline of NSCLC cell line PC14, was derived. Stable shRNA knockdown of EPAS1 was then established in PC14HM cells and subjected to assessment regarding the effects on proliferation and viability, xenograft tumor growth, metastatic potential, mesothelial-mesenchymal transition (MMT)-related characteristics and peritoneal carcinomatosis in a mouse model. RESULTS EPAS1 expression was elevated in PC14HM cells. Knockdown of EPAS1 inhibited the proliferation and viability of PC14HM cells in vitro and suppressed tumorigenesis in vivo. In addition, the metastatic features and in vitro productions of MMT-inducing factors in PC14HM cells was also associated with EPAS1. More importantly, knockdown of EPAS1 drastically suppressed peritoneal carcinomatosis of PC14HM cells in vivo. CONCLUSION EPAS1 promotes peritoneal carcinomatosis of NSCLC through enhancement of MMT and could therefore serve as a prognostic marker or a therapeutic target in treating NSCLC, particularly in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Abstract
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is progression of the primary cancer to the peritoneum that is seen in only 1.2% of patients with lung cancer. It is associated with poor prognosis especially if present at the time of initial cancer diagnosis. The predisposing factors for peritoneal spread are not yet well understood. It has been suggested that the oncogene status of the tumour can influence the patterns of metastatic spread. There is not enough data about the role of c-ROS oncogene 1 (ROS1) mutation in the development of PC in non-small cell lung cancer. Here, we describe a case of a 56-year-old man who presented with new-onset ascites and was found to have PC. He was diagnosed with ROS1-rearranged lung adenocarcinoma. No obvious primary tumour was identified. Patient responded well to targeted therapy with crizotinib and remained 6 months free of disease progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal metastases are often reported in several abdominal tumors. Peritoneal diffusion from extra-abdominal tumors is thought to be rare. Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world with early metastases and it is associated with poor prognosis in advanced stages. Peritoneal metastases from lung cancer are uncommon and the real mechanism of its diffusion to the peritoneum is unknown. However, its clinical behavior is similar to any other peritoneal metastasis from abdominal tumors. CASE PRESENTATION We present two Caucasian patients (a 44-year-old man and a 59-year-old man) with bowel obstruction from peritoneal metastases from non-small cell lung cancer who successfully underwent emergency cytoreductive surgery and had a good prognosis and survival. CONCLUSIONS In our patients with isolated peritoneal metastases from lung cancer, cytoreduction showed good prognosis with acceptable morbidity. This treatment option might be considered in highly selected cases to improve survival. Strict follow-up is mandatory to allow early diagnosis of peritoneal diffusion.

Abstract
To retrospectively characterize the molecular features of Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinomas (NSCLC) with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC), clinicopathological data of 12 patients diagnosed with NSCLC and PC between 2007 and 2016 were collected. Immunohistochemistry and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) were performed on cases with available material. PC was the initial presentation of NSCLC in 17% of the cases. Overall, patients with PC displayed a poor median survival of 12 weeks. Histology was adenocarcinoma in 11 cases. 37.5% of cases showed PD-L1 immunostaining positivity (50% cut-off). ALK and ROS1 immunostainings were negative. Using NGS, we identified 17 molecular alterations in 9 genes (TP53, KRAS, STK11, BRAF, EGFR, DDR2, ERBB4, SMAD4, CTNNB1) in 88.9% of adenocarcinomas. To the best of our knowledge, 5 of these variants are not referenced in the literature. In conclusion, PC might be the initial presentation of NSCLC. Molecular profiling of our cases did not find any effective targetable alteration, except from high PD-L1 expression.

Abstract
Vertebral metastases of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are frequently diagnosed in the metastatic setting and are commonly identified in the thoracic vertebrae in patients. Treatment of NSCLC bone metastases, which are often multiple, is palliative, and the median survival times are 3 to 6 months. We have characterized spontaneous vertebral metastases in a brain metastases model of NSCLC and correlated these findings with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Brain metastases were established in athymic nude mice following intracardiac injection of brain-seeking adenocarcinoma NSCLC cells. Thirty-nine percent of mice (14/36) developed spontaneous vertebral metastases, spinal cord compression, and hind-limb paralysis. Vertebral metastases consisted of an adenocarcinoma phenotype with neoplastic epithelial cells arranged in cords or acini and a mesenchymal phenotype with spindloid neoplastic cells arranged in bundles and streams. Quantitative and qualitative immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence assays demonstrated an increase in vimentin expression compared to cytokeratin expression in vertebral metastases. A correlation with EMT was supported by an increase in CD44 in vertebral metastases and parenchymal metastases. These data demonstrate a translational lung cancer metastasis model with spontaneous vertebral metastasis. The mesenchymal and epithelial phenotype of these spontaneous metastases coupled with EMT provide a conduit to improve drug delivery and overall patient survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal carcinomatosis is a rare clinical event in lung cancer and the prognosis is very poor. There are limited data on what factors predict peritoneal progression and affect the outcome. The aim of this study is to investigate investigate the factors associated with peritoneal carcinomatosis. METHODS The patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from the Department of Medical Oncology and Radiation Sickness, Peking University Third Hospital were eligible for retrospective analysis between August 2010 and August 2018. Clinical factors such as age, gender, histology, pleural effusion and gene mutations with epidermal growth factor receptor/anaplastic lymphoma kinase/ROS proto-oncogene 1 receptor tyrosine kinase (EGFR/ALK/ROS1) were analyzed. Overall survival (OS) was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS 1.44% (12/836) patients in this study developed peritoneal carcinomatosis and 12 patients with adenocarcinoma had metachronous NSCLC diagnosis and PC. Malignant pleural effusion rates at baseline and at PC diagnosis were separately 50% (6/12) and 100.0% (12/12). Among the 12 patients, 9 patients harbored EGFR/ALK/ROS1 mutation. The outcome of patients with EGFR/ALK/ROS1 mutation was significantly better than that of patients without EGFR/ALK/ROS1 mutation, the mOS1 and mOS2 were separately 26.0 months and 6.0 months versus 10.0 months and 1.5 months (P<0.05). The mOS2 of patients with aggressive treatment after PC diagnosis was 6.0 months, significantly better than 1.0 month of patients with best supportive care (P<0.05). The mOS2 of the patients with angiogenesis inhibitors based-treatment after PC diagnosis was 8.5 months, significantly longer than that of patients with other treatments (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Adenocarcinoma and malignant pleural effusion are highly associated with peritoneal carcinomatosis in patients with advanced NSCLC. Aggressive treatment for lung cancer with PC is encouraged when possible. More patients with PC may benefit from the treatment strategies with angiogenesis inhibitors. Further prospective trials are urgently needed.

Abstract
Aim: We investigated outcomes in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and peritoneal involvement. Patients & methods: NSCLC patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) were included. We evaluated mOS1 (overall survival [OS] from NSCLC diagnosis) and mOS2 (OS from diagnosis of PC). Results: In total, 60 NSCLC patients were diagnosed with PC, 12 (20%) patients had a diagnosis of NSCLC and synchronous PC with a median OS of 9 months. Smokers had a shorter mOS1 and mOS2 compared with never-smokers; EGFR-mutated patients on tyrosine kinase inhibitors had longer mOS1 and mOS2 than EGFR wild-type patients. Conclusion: Metachronous PC is correlated to a short survival, irrespective of treatment line. Never-smokers and EGFR-mutated patients had improved mOS1 and mOS2 when compared with smokers and EGFR wild-type population.

Abstract
PURPOSE Lung cancer with malignant peritoneal carcinomatosis and malignant ascites is rare, often indicates the terminal stage, and is refractory to treatment. The median survival time of lung cancer patients with malignant ascites has been reported to be as short as 15 days to 2 months in retrospective studies. METHODS We reviewed all lung cancer patients who had cytologically or pathologically proven malignant ascites and received aggressive therapy including chemotherapy, anti-angiogenesis agents and target therapy at a Taiwan hospital from January 2015 to December 2017. In addition, we searched PubMed using the terms "lung cancer," "peritoneal carcinomatosis" and "malignant ascites" to find other studies reporting experience of such treatment. RESULTS Three consecutive lung cancer patients with malignant ascites (3/265, 1.13%) were included in this case series study, all of whom received bevacizumab with three other drugs (erlotinib, afatinib and gemcitabine). All of the patients showed a good response to treatment with a marked decrease in ascites. Two of the patients had a long progression-free survival time of more than 5 months. In the literature review, several cases reports and case series documented the treatment efficacy, however no prospective or retrospective studies reported treatment strategies. CONCLUSIONS Aggressive treatment for lung cancer with malignant ascites is encouraged when possible. Bevacizumab-based treatment may serve as one effective treatment strategy for non-squamous cell lung carcinoma with malignant ascites. Further prospective trials are urgently needed.

Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors are standard treatments for non-small cell lung cancer. Unique cases with paradoxical acceleration of the disease after immunotherapy have been reported. These have been described as cases of hyperprogressive disease. Case presentation A 76-year-old man was diagnosed with pulmonary adenocarcinoma with pleural dissemination and liver and adrenal metastases. Genomic analysis revealed neither EGFR mutations nor ALK translocations. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a programmed death-ligand 1 tumor proportion score of 23%. Chemotherapy with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab resulted in Grade 3 skin eruption and disease progression. Pembrolizumab was initiated as a second-line treatment. However, peritoneal dissemination and ascites developed. The patient died 2 weeks later. The autopsy revealed widespread peritoneal dissemination and an extensive hemorrhagic infarction. Conclusion This was a rare case of hyperprogressive disease with rapid progression of peritoneal dissemination after pembrolizumab treatment.

Abstract
AIM This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of clinical factors on the treatment outcomes of lung cancer patients with active epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations treated by first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). METHODS Patients of stage IIIb or IV lung adenocarcinoma harboring mutated EGFR were enrolled between March 2010 and June 2014 and followed up until December 2015. The effects of various clinical features, such as age, sex, smoking history, EGFR mutation types, TKIs used, presence of pleural effusion, metastatic sites on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS A total of 104 patients were included in this study. Patients with pleural effusion at initial diagnosis had significantly shorter PFS and OS than those without pleural effusion (median PFS: 8.2 months vs 15.3 months, P = 0.0004; median OS: 16.3 months vs 28.2 months, P = 0.0003). Univariate analysis revealed that being male or a smoker was associated with short PFS, whereas smoking history, bony metastasis and malignant pleural effusion were associated with poor OS. Stepwise multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the presence of pleural effusion and different TKI use were independent prognostic factors for PFS [hazard ratio [HR] = 2.50 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.53-4.10), P = 0.0003 and HR = 0.55 (95% CI, 0.31-0.97), P = 0.0396, respectively], whereas the presence of pleural effusion and liver metastasis were associated with poor OS [HR = 2.79 (95% CI: 1.46-5.30), P = 0.0018 and HR = 2.12 (95% CI, 1.02-4.40), P = 0.0440, respectively]. CONCLUSION The presence of pleural effusion predicts poor PFS and OS in lung adenocarcinoma patients receiving TKIs as the first-line treatment. Additional studies are warranted to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and determine novel strategies for improving the outcome of these patients.
