ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY 2024. [PMID: 38622884 DOI: 10.1002/tox.24297] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) generally presents as an immunosuppressive microenvironment. The characteristics of cell-to-cell communication in the LUAD microenvironment has been unclear. In this study, the LUAD bulk RNA-seq data and single-cell RNA-seq data were retrieved from public dataset. Differential expression genes (DEGs) between LUAD tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues were calculated by limma algorithm, and then detected by PPI, KEGG, and GO analysis. Cell-cell interactions were explored using the single-cell RNA-seq data. Finally, the first 15 CytoHubba genes were used to establish related pathways and these pathways were used to characterize the immune-related ligands and their receptors in LUAD. Our analyses showed that monocytes or macrophages interact with tissue stem cells and NK cells via SPP1 signaling pathway and tissue stem cells interact with T and B cells via CXCL signaling pathway in different states. Hub genes of SPP1 participated in SPP1 signaling pathway, which was negatively correlated with CD4+ T cell and CD8+ T cell. The expression of SPP1 in LUAD tumor tissues was negatively correlated with the prognosis. While CXCL12 participated in CXCL signaling pathway, which was positively correlated with CD4+ T cell and CD8+ T cell. The role of CXCL12 in LUAD tumor tissues exhibits an opposite effect to that of SPP1. This study reveals that tumor-associated monocytes or macrophages may affect tumor progression. Moreover, the SPP1 and CXCL12 may be the critic genes of cell-to-cell communication in LUAD, and targeting these pathways may provide a new molecular mechanism for the treatment of LUAD.

Abstract
The high mortality from lung cancer is mainly attributed to the presence of metastases at the time of diagnosis. Despite being the leading cause of lung cancer death, the underlying molecular mechanisms driving metastasis progression are still not fully understood. Recent studies suggest that tumor cell exosomes play a significant role in tumor progression through intercellular communication between tumor cells, the microenvironment, and distant organs. Furthermore, evidence shows that exosomes release biologically active components to distant sites and organs, which direct metastasis by preparing metastatic pre-niche and stimulating tumorigenesis. As a result, identifying the active components of exosome cargo has become a critical area of research in recent years. Among these components are microRNAs, which are associated with tumor progression and metastasis in lung cancer. Although research into exosome-derived microRNA (exosomal miRNAs) is still in its early stages, it holds promise as a potential target for lung cancer therapy. Understanding how exosomal microRNAs promote metastasis will provide evidence for developing new targeted treatments. This review summarizes current research on exosomal miRNAs' role in metastasis progression mechanisms, focusing on lung cancer.

[PMID: 36719494 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-09404-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the performance of extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) combined with multiparameters from dual-energy computed tomography (mpDECT) to differentiate between multiple myeloma (MM) of the spine and vertebral osteolytic metastases (VOM). METHODS For this retrospective study, 28 patients (83 lesions) with MM of the spine and 23 patients (54 lesions) with VOM who underwent DECT were included. The mpDECT for each lesion, including normalized effective atomic number, slope of the spectral Hounsfield unit curve, CT attenuation, and virtual noncalcium (VNCa), was obtained. Boruta was used to select the key parameters, and then subsequently merged with XGBoost to yield a prediction model. The lesions were divided into the training and testing group in a 3:1 ratio. The highest performance of the univariate analysis was compared with XGBoost using the Delong test. RESULTS The mpDECT of MM was significantly lower than that of VOM (all p < 0.05). In univariate analysis, VNCa had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) in the training group (0.81) and testing group (0.87). Based on Boruta, 6 parameters of DECT were selected for XGBoost model construction. The XGBoost model achieved an excellent and stable diagnostic performance, as shown in the training group (AUC of 1.0) and testing group (AUC of 0.97), with a sensitivity of 80%, a specificity of 95%, and an accuracy of 88%, which was superior to VNCa (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS XGBoost combined with mpDECT yielded promising performance in differentiating between MM of the spine and VOM. KEY POINTS • The multiparameters obtained from dual-energy CT of multiple myeloma differed significantly from those of vertebral osteolytic metastases. • The virtual noncalcium offered the highest AUC in the univariate analysis to distinguish multiple myeloma from vertebral osteolytic metastases. • Extreme gradient boosting combined with multiparameters from dual-energy CT had a promising performance to distinguish multiple myeloma from vertebral osteolytic metastases.

Development and externally validate MRI-based nomogram to assess EGFR and T790M mutations in patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Eur Radiol 2022; 32:6739-6751. [PMID: 35729427 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-08955-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 05/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to explore values of multi-parametric MRI-based radiomics for detecting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and resistance (T790M) mutation in lung adenocarcinoma (LA) patients with spinal metastasis. METHODS This study enrolled a group of 160 LA patients from our hospital (between Jan. 2017 and Feb. 2021) to build a primary cohort. An external cohort was developed with 32 patients from another hospital (between Jan. 2017 and Jan. 2021). All patients underwent spinal MRI (including T1-weighted (T1W) and T2-weighted fat-suppressed (T2FS)) scans. Radiomics features were extracted from the metastasis for each patient and selected to develop radiomics signatures (RSs) for detecting the EGFR and T790M mutations. The clinical-radiomics nomogram models were constructed with RSs and important clinical parameters. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predication capabilities of each model. Calibration and decision curve analyses (DCA) were constructed to verify the performance of the models. RESULTS For detecting the EGFR and T790M mutation, the developed RSs comprised 9 and 4 most important features, respectively. The constructed nomogram models incorporating RSs and smoking status showed favorite prediction efficacy, with AUCs of 0.849 (Sen = 0.685, Spe = 0.885), 0.828 (Sen = 0.964, Spe = 0.692), and 0.778 (Sen = 0.611, Spe = 0.929) in the training, internal validation, and external validation sets for detecting the EGFR mutation, respectively, and with AUCs of 0.0.842 (Sen = 0.750, Spe = 0.867), 0.823 (Sen = 0.667, Spe = 0.938), and 0.800 (Sen = 0.875, Spe = 0.800) in the training, internal validation, and external validation sets for detecting the T790M mutation, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Radiomics features from the spinal metastasis were predictive on both EGFR and T790M mutations. The constructed nomogram models can be potentially considered as new markers to guild treatment management in LA patients with spinal metastasis. KEY POINTS • To our knowledge, this study was the first approach to detect the EGFR T790M mutation based on spinal metastasis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. • We identified 13 MRI features that were strongly associated with the EGFR T790M mutation. • The proposed nomogram models can be considered as potential new markers for detecting EGFR and T790M mutations based on spinal metastasis.

Abstract
Studies about prognostic factors of NSCLC patients with BOM are lacking. Five significant independent prognostic factors for them were found. We developed a GPA model to estimate life expectancy and to guide interventions. The more distal metastases to the spine, the worse the prognosis.
Objectives This retrospective study investigated prognostic factors in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with bone-only metastasis, and developed a graded prognostic assessment (GPA) model to estimate patient survival. Methods The primary endpoint was overall survival. We investigated the patients with advanced NSCLC with bone-only metastasis at the initial diagnosis and diagnosed between 2013 and 2019 in our hospital. A log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards model were used to examine factors. A GPA model was developed in the training set based on the factors that were determined significant according to their hazard ratios and verified by the validation set. Results We finally included 220 patients for analysis. These patients were divided into two groups, 147 cases for the training cohort and 73 for the validation cohort. The following were significant independent prognostic factors, and were included in the GPA model: smoking; EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) sensitive/ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) mutations; loss of weight; hypoalbuminemia; and primary site treated by surgery or radiotherapy. GPA score of nil was assigned to smoking, without sensitive mutations, loss of weight, hypoalbuminemia, and without local treatment of primary site; the corresponding superior alternatives were scored 1.5, 2.0, 1.5, 1.5, and 1.5, respectively. The median survival times of patients with GPA scores of nil to 3.0, 3.5 to 6.0, and 6.5 to 8.0 were 14.2, 29.5, and 56.6 months in the training set (P < 0.001) and 15.2, 31.2, and 54.0 months in the validation set (P < 0.001). Conclusion The survival time of patients with NSCLC with bone-only metastasis was dramatically influenced by the presence of the determined prognostic factors. The GPA model developed in this study may be a useful clinical tool to estimate the life expectancy of these patients, and guide treatment.

Bone-Specific Metastasis Pattern of Advanced-Stage Lung Adenocarcinoma According to the Localization of the Primary Tumor. Pathol Oncol Res 2021; 27:1609926. [PMID: 34629961 PMCID: PMC8496061 DOI: 10.3389/pore.2021.1609926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
Background: Patients with advanced-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) often develop distant metastases in the skeletal system. Yet, the bone-specific metastasis pattern is still controversial. We, therefore, aimed to examine how the primary tumor location affects bone specificity and survival in LADC patients diagnosed with skeletal metastases. Methods: In total, 209 bone-metastatic Caucasian LADC patients from two thoracic centers were included in this study. Focusing on the specific location of primary tumors and bone metastatic sites, clinicopathological variables were included in a common database and analyzed retrospectively. Skeletal metastases were diagnosed according to the contemporary diagnostic guidelines and confirmed by bone scintigraphy. Besides region- and side-specific localization, primary tumors were also classified as central or peripheral tumors based on their bronchoscopic visibility. Results: The most common sites for metastasis were the spine (n = 103) and the ribs (n = 60), followed by the pelvis (n = 36) and the femur (n = 22). Importantly, femoral (p = 0.022) and rib (p = 0.012) metastases were more frequently associated with peripheral tumors, whereas centrally located LADCs were associated with humeral metastases (p = 0.018). Moreover, we deduced that left-sided tumors give rise to skull metastases more often than right-sided primary tumors (p = 0.018). Of note, however, the localization of the primary tumor did not significantly influence the type of affected bones. Multivariate Cox regression analysis adjusted for clinical parameters demonstrated that central localization of the primary tumor was an independent negative prognostic factor for overall survival (OS). Additionally, as expected, both chemotherapy and bisphosphonate therapy conferred a significant benefit for OS. Conclusion: The present study demonstrates unique bone-specific metastasis patterns concerning primary tumor location. Peripherally located LADCs are associated with rib and femoral metastases and improved survival outcomes. Our findings might contribute to the development of individualized follow-up strategies in bone-metastatic LADC patients and warrant further clinical investigations on a larger sample size.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:680679. [PMID: 34336886 PMCID: PMC8316725 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.680679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2021] [Accepted: 06/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Elderly patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exhibit worse reactions to anticancer treatments. Adenocarcinoma (AC) is the predominant histologic subtype of NSCLC, is diverse and heterogeneous, and shows different outcomes and responses to treatment. The aim of this study was to establish a nomogram that includes the important prognostic factors based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2010 to 2015. We collected 53,694 patients of older than 60 who have been diagnosed with lung AC from the SEER database. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to screen the independent prognostic factors, which were used to construct a nomogram for predicting survival rates in elderly AC patients. The nomogram was evaluated using the concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, net reclassification index (NRI), integrated discrimination improvement (IDI), and decision-curve analysis (DCA). Elderly AC patients were randomly divided into a training cohort and validation cohort. The nomogram model included the following 11 prognostic factors: age, sex, race, marital status, tumor site, histologic grade, American Joint Committee for Cancer (AJCC) stage, surgery status, radiotherapy status, chemotherapy status, and insurance type. The C-indexes of the training and validation cohorts for cancer-specific survival (CSS) (0.832 and 0.832, respectively) based on the nomogram model were higher than those of the AJCC model (0.777 and 0.774, respectively). The CSS discrimination performance as indicated by the AUC was better in the nomogram model than the AJCC model at 1, 3, and 5 years in both the training cohort (0.888 vs. 0.833, 0.887 vs. 0.837, and 0.876 vs. 0.830, respectively) and the validation cohort (0.890 vs. 0.832, 0.883 vs. 0.834, and 0.880 vs. 0.831, respectively). The predicted CSS probabilities showed optimal agreement with the actual observations in nomogram calibration plots. The NRI, IDI, and DCA for the 1-, 3-, and 5-year follow-up examinations verified the clinical usability and practical decision-making effects of the new model. We have developed a reliable nomogram for determining the prognosis of elderly AC patients, which demonstrated excellent discrimination and clinical usability and more accurate prognosis predictions. The nomogram may improve clinical decision-making and prognosis predictions for elderly AC patients.

Lipofection of Single Guide RNA Targeting MMP8 Decreases Proliferation and Migration in Lung Adenocarcinoma Cells. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2021; 57:710. [PMID: 34356991 PMCID: PMC8306211 DOI: 10.3390/medicina57070710] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2021] [Revised: 06/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) have been implicated as major determinants of tumour growth and metastasis, which are considered two of the main hallmarks of cancer. The interaction of MMP8 and other signalling molecules within and adjacent tumoral tissues, including immune cells, are rather elusive, particularly of adenocarcinoma cell type. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of MMP8 in non-small cell lung cancer proliferation and invasiveness potential. Materials and Methods: We individually lipofected with two different single guide RNA (sgRNAs) that specifically targeted on MMP8, with CRISPR-Cas 9 protein into the cells. Results: Our results clearly indicated that the lipofection of these complexes could lead to reduced ability of A549 cells to survive and proliferate to form colonies. In addition, when compared to non-transfected cells, the experimental cell groups receiving sgRNAs demonstrated relatively decreased migration rate, hence, wider wound gaps in scratch assay. The quantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) demonstrated significant reduction in the MAP-K, survivin and PI3-K gene expression. MMP8 might have protective roles over tumour growth and spread in our body. Conclusions: The delivery of sgRNAs targeting on the MMP8 gene could induce tumour cell death and arrest cell migratory activity.

Abstract
Bone metastases frequently occur in NSCLC patients at the late stage, indicating poor survival. However, mechanisms about the initiation of NSCLC bone metastases remain largely unclear. In our previous reports, BMP2 signaling activation has been found to enhance NSCLC bone metastases through enhancing carcinoma cells migration, invasion, osteoclasts differentiation and osteoblasts immature differentiation. Nevertheless, downstream target genes of BMP2 contributing to those processes still remain unknown. In this project, we find that the expression of Pnma5 is higher in metastatic bone tumors of Lewis lung carcinoma than in metastatic lung tumors and parental Lewis lung cells. Pnma5 overexpression not only can promote cell migration and invasion of NSCLC cells but also tumor-induced osteoclasts differentiation. Interestingly, knockdown of Pnma5 in Lewis lung cells blocks BMP2 signaling from inducing Lewis lung cells migration and invasion. Although BMP2 signaling can promote Lewis lung cells-induced osteoclasts differentiation from macrophages, this effect can also be blocked when Pnma5 is knocked down in Lewis lung cells. Moreover, Pnma5 can promote NSCLC bone metastases in vivo as the downstream target of BMP2. Those results above indicate that BMP2 signaling enhances NSCLC bone metastases via its direct downstream target gene Pnma5. This research reveals the detailed molecular mechanism about how BMP2 signaling contributes to NSCLC bone metastases via PNMA5 and provides a new potential therapeutic target for the treatment of NSCLC bone metastases.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to describe the incidence, clinical characteristics, and prognosis of lung cancer patients with synchronous bone metastasis (SBM) and to analyze the prognostic factors of the lung cancer patients with SBM. Methods A total of 15,716 lung cancer patients who were diagnosed between 2009 to 2018 in the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Among them, patients with SBM were checked. Both the demographic and clinical characteristics were included as follows: age, gender, marital status, history of smoking, alcohol consumption, family history of tumor, Karnofsky score, lymph node metastasis, histological type. Besides, laboratory data such as alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, carcinoembryonic antigen, squamous cell carcinoma antigen, cytokeratin-19 fragment, and neuron specific enolase were also included. The log-rank test and multivariate Cox regression analysis were employed to reveal the potential prognostic predictors. A further analysis using the Kaplan–Meier was employed to demonstrate the difference on the prognosis of LC patients between adenocarcinoma and non-adenocarcinoma. Results Among the included patients, 2738 patients (17.42%) were diagnosed with SBM. A total of 938 patients (34.3%) with SBM were successfully followed and the median survival was 11.53 months (95%CI: 10.57–12.49 months), and the 1-, 2-, and 5-year overall survival rate was 51, 17, and 8%, respectively. Multivariable Cox regression results showed history of smoking and high level of NSE were associated with the poor prognosis, while adenocarcinoma histological type was associated with better survival. Conclusion The prevalence of SBM in lung cancer is relatively high with poor survival. The lung cancer patients with SBM showed diverse prognosis. Among all the pathological types, the division of adenocarcinoma suggested different prognosis of the lung cancer patients with SBM. The present study emphasized the importance of pathological diagnosis on prognostic determinants in lung cancer patients with SBM.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the clinical features and evaluate the prognostic factors in
patients with bone metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods We retrospectively investigated 356 patients with NSCLC with bone metastases
from January 2012 to December 2017. The overall survival (OS) and 1-year
survival rate were calculated by Kaplan–Meier analysis and compared by
univariate analysis using the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was
performed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results A total of 694 sites of bone metastases were determined among the 356
patients. The most common site of bone metastases was the ribs. The median
OS was 12.5 months and the 1-year survival was 50.8% in the overall
population. Univariate analysis revealed that histological type, number of
bone metastases, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG
PS), bisphosphonate therapy, and serum calcium, lactate dehydrogenase, and
alkaline phosphatase were significantly correlated with prognosis.
Multivariate analysis identified multiple bone metastases, ECOG PS ≥2,
lactate dehydrogenase ≥225 U/L, and alkaline phosphatase ≥140 U/L as
independent negative prognostic factors. Conclusion Multiple bone metastases, high ECOG PS, and high serum alkaline phosphatase
and lactate dehydrogenase are independent negative prognostic factors for
bone metastases from NSCLC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cancer induced bone pain (CIBP) is frequent in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Radiation therapy continues to be the gold standard for treatment of painful bone metastases, however only a limited number of metastases can be irradiated. We evaluated non-radiation based early CIBP relief options in NSCLC through a systematic review. METHODS Systematic review including all prospective articles published between 01-1994 and 06-2020 on Pubmed, Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrials.gov database. Inclusion: non-radiation based trials evaluating CIBP early pain relief options (initially defined as pain score evaluated within two weeks, because of no randomized trials, later inclusion broadened to pain score evaluated within six weeks) in ≥10 NSCLC patients. Radioisotope trials were excluded as these treatments have interactions with systemic anticancer therapy. RESULTS 188 articles were found; 10 articles (6 randomized controlled (4 double blinded), 1 phase II single-arm, and 3 prospective trials) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Six of these trials consisted of ≥2 treatment arms, whereas the others were single-arm studies. In total, 554 NSCLC patients were evaluated in these trials. The included trials were very heterogeneous regarding evaluated treatment options, methods of pain measuring, and endpoints. No high-level evidence for specific early pain relief treatment options was found. DISCUSSION Non-radiation based studies evaluating treatment options to rapidly reduce CIBP in NSCLC are scarce. This systematic review shows that there is no high-level evidence to recommend a specific treatment for early pain relief. Future research should focus on early pain relief treatment options for CIBP in NSCLC.

The P2X7 purinergic receptor: a potential therapeutic target for lung cancer. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2020; 146:2731-2741.

Abstract
PURPOSE Purinergic P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) is a gated ion channel for which adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a ligand. Activated P2X7R is widely expressed in a variety of immune cells and tissues and is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Studies have confirmed that P2X7R is involved in the regulation of tumor cell growth, stimulating cell proliferation or inducing apoptosis. Recent studies have found that P2X7R is abnormally expressed in lung cancer and is closely related to the carcinogenesis and development of lung cancer. In this paper, we comprehensively describe the structure, function, and genetic polymorphisms of P2X7R. In particular, the role and therapeutic potential of P2X7R in lung cancer are discussed to provide new targets and new strategies for the treatment and prognosis of clinical lung cancer. METHODS The relevant literature on P2X7R and lung cancer from PubMed databases is reviewed in this article. RESULTS P2X7R regulates the function of lung cancer cells by activating multiple intracellular signaling pathways (such as the JNK, Rho, HMGB1 and EMT pathways), thereby affecting cell survival, growth, invasion, and metastasis and patient prognosis. Targeting P2X7R with inhibitors effectively suppresses the growth and metastasis of lung cancer cells. CONCLUSION In summary, P2X7R is expected to become a potential target for the treatment of lung cancer, and more clinical research is needed in the future to explore the effectiveness of P2X7R antagonists as treatments.

Abstract
Distant metastases occur when non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is at late stages. Bone metastasis is one of the most frequent metastases of NSCLC and leads to poor prognosis. It has been reported that high expression of BMP2 in NSCLC correlates with poor survival, but whether BMP2 contributes to NSCLC bone metastasis remains largely unknown. The activation of BMP signalling is found in metastatic bone tumours of mice Lewis lung carcinoma and predicts poor survival in human NSCLC. BMP2 signalling activation can enhance bone metastasis of Lewis lung carcinoma. Moreover, BMP2 secreted by stroma fibroblasts can promote the migration and invasion of NSCLC cells. Besides, in combination with pre‐osteoblast and LLCs, BMP2 could enhance the differentiation of macrophages into osteoclasts to play roles in the osteolytic mechanism of NSCLC bone metastasis. Interestingly, NSCLC cells can also enrich BMP2 to pre‐osteoblasts to function in the osteoblastic mechanism. Our results firstly demonstrate the detailed mechanisms about what roles BMP2 signalling play in enhancing NSCLC bone metastases. These findings provide a new potential therapy choice for preventing bone metastases of NSCLC via the inhibition of BMP2 signalling.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the prevalence rate and survival situation of bone metastases in initial nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients and the hazard and forecast elements of bone metastases NPC patients. Patients and Methods. The data collected from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program between 2010 and 2016 were evaluated. Univariate and multivariable logistic analysis and the Cox regression were carried out to estimate predictors and elements of the being of bone metastases at diagnosis, respectively. The overall survival of different subgroups were appraised by log-rank tests and the Kaplan–Meier analysis. Results Factors including male sex, higher N stage, presence of liver, and brain or lung metastases were largely related to the occurrence of bone metastases. The median survival time for bone metastasis NPC patients was 14.0 months. A factor of more than one primary sequence number predicted worse survival. Conclusion The data offer corresponding risks and prognostic indicators of bone metastases for NPC patients.

Abstract
Background Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a malignant cancer with the ability to metastasize quickly. The relationship between tumor size and the distant metastasis patterns of Extensive-Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC) has not been reported. Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the different distant metastasis patterns as they related to tumor size in ES-SCLC. Patients and Methods We used Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) population-based data collected from 2010 through 2013 to identify 11058 ES-SCLC patients with definite evidence of distant metastases. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to demonstrate the association between tumor size and distant metastasis patterns including bone, liver, brain, and lung metastases. Age, race, sex, and N stage were also selected in the logistic regression model. Results Subtle differences in metastasis patterns were found among patients based on different tumor sizes. Patients with tumors 3–7 cm have a higher risk of bone metastasis compared with those that have tumors ≤3 cm (OR 1.165, 95% CI [1.055–1.287], P = 0.003) and patients with tumors ≥7 cm have a higher risk of lung metastasis (OR 1.183, 95% CI [1.039–1.347], P = 0.011). In addition, patients with tumors ≥7 cm had a lower risk of brain metastasis and liver metastasis than patients with tumors ≤3 cm (OR 0.799, 95% CI [0.709–0.901], P < 0.001; OR 0.747, 95% CI [0.672–0.830], P < 0.001). Interestingly, there was no correlation between a larger tumor and a higher risk of metastasis. However, the tumor metastasis pattern did have some correlation with age, gender, race and N-status. Conclusion The pattern of distant metastasis of ES-SCLC is related to the tumor size and the tumor size is indicative of the metastatic site. Larger tumor sizes did not correlate with a higher risk of distant metastasis, but the size is related to the pattern of distant metastasis. The study of different distant metastasis patterns based on tumor size and other clinical features (e.g., age, race, sex, and N stage) in ES-SCLC is clinically valuable.

Abstract
Objective Lung cancer is the leading cause of death by cancer, and the bones are one of the most common sites of metastasis from this condition. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of lung carcinoma histology on the frequency of bone metastases. Methods This retrospective study evaluated the medical records of 407 patients diagnosed with lung cancer between 2003 and 2012. The prevalence of bone metastases and their association with histological subtypes were evaluated using chi-squared tests, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The overall survival was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results The prevalence of bone metastases was 28.2% ( n = 115), and the spine was the most frequently affected site (98 metastases; 32.1%). Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological subtype of lung carcinoma (46.7%), and it was significantly more frequent among patients with bone metastases (58.3% versus 42.1%; p = 0.003; OR = 1.92; 95% CI: 1.29-2.97). Squamous cell carcinoma was significantly less frequent among patients with bone metastases (13.0% versus 29.8%; p = 0.0004; OR = 0.35; 95% CI: 0.19-0.64). The median survival time after the first bone metastasis diagnosis was 4 months. Conclusion Adenocarcinoma was the most common histological subtype of lung carcinoma, and it was significantly associated with a higher risk of developing bone metastases.

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 The purpose of the present study was to characterize the prevalence, associated factors, and to construct a nomogram for predicting bone metastasis (BM) with different histological types of lung cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was a descriptive study that basing on the invasive lung cancer patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2014 in Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program. A total of 125,652 adult patients were retrieved. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate homogeneous and heterogeneous factors for BM occurrence. Nomogram was constructed to predict the risk for developing BM and the performance was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristics curve (ROC) and the calibration curve. The overall survival of the patients with BM was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and the survival differences were tested by the log-rank test. RESULTS A total of 25,645 (20.9%) were reported to have BM, and the prevalence in adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, small cell lung cancer (SCLC), large cell lung cancer (LCLC), and non-small cell lung cancer/not otherwise specified lung cancer (NSCLC/NOS) were 24.4, 12.5, 24.7, 19.5 and 19.4%, respectively, with significant difference (P < 0.001). Male gender, more metastatic sites and lymphatic metastasis were positively associated with BM in all lung cancer subtypes. Larger tumor size was positively associated with BM in all the lung cancer subtypes except for NSCLC/NOS. Poorly differentiated histology was positively associated with adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma and NSCLC/NOS. The calibration curve and ROC curve exhibited good performance for predicting BM. The median survival of the bone metastatic lung cancer patients was 4.00 (95%CI: 3.89-4.11) months. With the increased number of the other metastatic sites (brain, lung and liver metastasis), the survival significantly decreased (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Different lung cancer histological subtypes exhibited distinct prevalence and homogeneity and heterogeneity associated factors for BM. The nomogram has good calibration and discrimination for predicting BM of lung cancer.

Abstract
Mobility in advanced cancer patients is a major health care concern and is often lost in advanced metastatic cancers. Erosion of mobility is a major component in determining quality of life but also starts a process of loss of muscle and bone mass that further devastates patients. In addition, treatment options become limited in these advanced cancer patients. Loss of bone and muscle occurs concomitantly. Advanced cancers that are metastatic to bone often lead to bone loss (osteolytic lesions) but may also lead to abnormal deposition of new bone (osteoblastic lesions). However, in both cases there is a disruption to normal bone remodeling and radiologic evidence of bone loss. Many antitumor therapies can also lead to loss of bone in cancer survivors. Bone loss releases cytokines (TGFβ) stored in the mineralized matrix that can act on skeletal muscle and lead to weakness. Likewise, loss of skeletal muscle mass leads to reduced bone mass and quality via mechanical and endocrine signals. Collectively these interactions are termed bone-muscle cross-talk, which has garnered much attention recently as a prime target for musculoskeletal health. Pharmacological approaches as well as nutrition and exercise can improve muscle and bone but have fallen short in the context of advanced cancers and cachexia. This review highlights our current knowledge of these interventions and discusses the difficulties in treating severe musculoskeletal deficits with the emphasis on improving not only bone mass and muscle size but also functional outcomes. © 2019 The Authors.

Abstract
Background: Bone is a frequent site of metastasis from various primary cancers including with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence and risk factors for Bone Metastasis in patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Methodology: A cohort study was carried out in patients diagnosed with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer between 2006 and 2014 in a single cancer centre. A descriptive analysis of the population was compiled based on mean ± standard deviation (SD) for continuous variables and percentage (%) for categorical variables. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were carried out to quantify the relationship between independent variables and the outcome variable (Bone Metastasis). Results: During the study period 1025 patients were diagnosed with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Bone Metastasis was detected in 136 patients (13.2%) with a mean interval between Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer diagnosis and Bone Metastasis of 8.07 months (95% CI: 7.68 8.45). Multivariate analysis revealed that younger age (HR 0.97; 95%CI, 0.95–0.99; p=0.002), adenocarcinoma (HR 1.51; 95%CI, 1.06–2.15; p=0.021) and treatment with chemotherapy, radiotherapy or chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy (HR 3.73; 95%CI, 2.30–6.05; p<0.001) were associated with the occurrence of Bone Metastasis. Conclusion: The incidence of Bone Metastasis was 13.2%. Younger age, histological subtype adenocarcinoma and treatment with chemotherapy, radiotherapy or chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy are independent risk factors for Bone Metastasis.

Abstract
AIM Estimate the incidence of bone metastases (BM) and skeletal-related events according to the histological subtype of lung cancer and its impact on patient survival. PATIENTS & METHODS Retrospective cohort study was carried out with patients diagnosed with lung cancer. Cumulative incidence, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the risk of death were estimated. RESULTS In non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the cumulative incidence of BM during follow-up was 23.8% at 24 months; in small-cell lung cancer, it was 18.5%. The presence of BM in patients with NSCLC was associated with an increased risk of death (hazard ratio: 1.25; 95% CI: 1.04-1.49; p = 0.013). CONCLUSION This study revealed a high incidence of BM and skeletal-related events. BM was associated with a poor prognosis in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pathological fractures are frequent skeletal-related events among lung cancer patients, which result in high morbidity and decreased overall survival and make operative treatment decisions challenging. OBJECTIVES To identify risk factors associated with the occurrence of pathological fractures in patients with lung cancer and to determine survival. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study with 407 lung carcinoma patients diagnosed between 2006 and 2015. The prevalence of bone metastases and pathological fractures was calculated. Statistical analysis was conducted using a chi-squared test, and the odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were calculated. Overall survival was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method and differences were compared using the log-rank test. RESULTS The prevalence of bone metastases and pathological fractures was 28.2% (n = 115) and 19.1% (n = 22), respectively. Pathological fractures were more frequent among patients with bone metastases at the time of diagnosis of lung cancer (24.7% [n = 20] vs. 5.9% [n = 2]; p < 0.05). The median overall survival following the diagnosis of lung cancer, bone metastases, and pathological fracture was 6, 4, and 2 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Pathological fracture was associated with synchronous bone metastases and overall survival times were considerably reduced. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.

Abstract
Background The aims of this study were to investigate the incidence and risk factors for the development of bone metastases and prognosis in women with cancer of the uterine cervix using database analysis. Material/Methods The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was analyzed for the incidence and survival rates of women diagnosed with uterine cervical cancer in the United States between 2010–2015. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified risk factors for bone metastases. Kaplan-Meier analysis estimated the overall survival. Proportional hazard regression analysis estimated prognostic factors associated with bone metastases. Results There were 19,363 women with uterine cervical cancer, and 469 women were diagnosed with bone metastases on initial diagnosis (2.42%). Increased T-stage, N-stage, non-squamous and non-adenocarcinoma histology, high-grade tumors, and the presence of lung, liver, and brain metastases were all significantly associated with early bone metastases. There were 364 patients with cervical cancer and bone metastases on initial diagnosis who were followed-up for at least one year. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that unmarried status and lung, liver, and brain metastases were significantly associated with reduced overall survival. No other significant risk or prognostic associations were found. Conclusions SEER data analysis showed that women with uterine cervical cancer had some standard risk factors associated with bone metastases, and with prognosis, but a heterogeneous group of risk factors was also present. The findings of this study may have clinical application in screening for bone metastases in women with cervical cancer.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to compare the outcomes of 125I seed brachytherapy versus external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for the palliation of painful bone metastases of lung cancer after one cycle of chemotherapy progression. Materials and methods We analyzed retrospectively 158 patients with painful bone metastases secondary to lung cancer after one cycle of chemotherapy progression treated between June 2013 and May 2016. Seventy-six patients with 96 lesions received 125I brachytherapy (Group A), whereas 82 patients with 98 metastases received EBRT (Group B). Pain intensity on Brief Pain Inventory, percentage of patients with pain severity, and quality of life were recorded prior to treatment (T0), 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 weeks (T2, T4, T6, T8, T12, T16, T20, and T24) after treatment during a 24-hour period. Cost-effectiveness and number of treatment appointments were also compared between groups. Results One hundred and fifty-eight patients had been treated. Visual analog scale for worst pain in Group A was significantly lower than in Group B at T2, T4, T6, T16, T20, and T24. Group A was superior to group B concerning quality of life scores (T2, T4, T20, and T24), cost-effectiveness, and number of treatment appointments. No significant differences were observed for complications. Conclusion Compared with EBRT, 125I seed brachytherapy can be an alternative method for painful bone metastases from lung cancer after one cycle of chemotherapy progression.

The risk factors of bone metastases in patients with lung cancer. Sci Rep 2017; 7:8970.

Abstract
The risk factors of bone metastasis in patients with lung cancer are still unclear. Here, a retrospective study including a series of consecutive patients who were diagnosed with lung cancer between January 2005 and November 2016 was carried out. A total of 2021 patients with lung cancer were included in this study and 23.9% of them were found to be bone metastases. For patients with bone metastases, adenocarcinoma (62.1%) was the most common pathological subtype, and rib (62.3%) was the most frequent distant metastatic site, followed by thoracic (53.8%) and lumbar spine (40.4%). The histopathologic type, CA-125 level and the concentration of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were identified as the independent risk factors for bone metastases in lung cancer (P = 0.002, P = 0.001 and P < 0.001). The sensitivities and specificities of diagnosing bone metastasis by CA-125 were 32.1% and 80.8%, and by ALP were 41.3% and 77.1%, respectively. Thus, the incidence of bone metastases in lung cancer patients was relative high, and physicians should pay attention to the histopathologic type, the serum CA-125 and ALP concentrations when patients were firstly diagnosed with lung cancer for early detecting bone metastases.

Abstract
Lung cancer is a malignant tumor with high metastatic ability and bone is the most common site of distant metastasis of it. However, the independent risk factors for bone metastases of lung cancer remain largely to be elucidated. Here, we conducted a retrospective study to evaluate the correlation between clinical-pathological parameters, serum levels of neuron-specific enolase and CYFRA21-1, and bone metastases in lung cancer patients. The results revealed that patients with bone metastases were younger than those without metastases. Adenocarcinoma was the most frequent type of histopathology in patients with bone metastases. And the incidence of bone metastasis in patients with adenocarcinoma was significantly higher than those with other histopathological subtypes ( p < 0.001). Furthermore, the serum concentration of neuron-specific enolase was significantly higher in patients with bone lesions than those without bone metastases. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients' age (odds ratio = 1.024, p < 0.001), concentrations of neuron-specific enolase (odds ratio = 1.212, p = 0.004), and histopathological types (odds ratio = 0.995, p = 0.001) were the independent risk factors for bone metastases in patients with lung cancer. Thus, physicians should pay attention to these factors in order to identify bone metastasis earlier while patient was primarily diagnosed as having lung cancer.

Sci Rep 2017; 7:42979. [PMID: 28211502 PMCID: PMC5314405 DOI: 10.1038/srep42979] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2016] [Accepted: 01/17/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Whether bisphosphonates could enhance the effect of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutation and bone metastases (BM) remains unknown. EGFR mutation status were collected from 1560 patients with NSCLC and BM. 356 NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation and BM were identified. Among them, 91 patients received EGFR-TKIs alone and 105 patients received EGFR-TKIs plus bisphosphonates as first-line therapy. Comparing to TKIs alone, EGFR-TKIs plus bisphosphonates had a statistically significant longer progression-free survival (PFS: 11.6 vs. 9.3 months; HR = 0.68, P = 0.009), while a similar overall survival (OS: 20.5 vs. 19.5 months; HR = 0.95, P = 0.743) in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC and BM. The incidence of skeletal-related events in combined group was numerically lower than that in EGFR-TKIs alone group (29.7% vs. 39.4%, P = 0.147). In multivariate analysis, EGFR mutation was found to be a significant independent prognostic factor for OS in NSCLC patients with BM (HR = 0.710, P = 0.021). In conclusion, EGFR mutation was the significant independent prognostic factor for OS and the addition of bisphosphonates to EGFR-TKIs could enhance the antitumor effect of EGFR-TKIs in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC and BM.

Thoracic Temporal Subtraction Three Dimensional Computed Tomography (3D-CT): Screening for Vertebral Metastases of Primary Lung Cancers. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0170309. [PMID: 28095493 PMCID: PMC5240957 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0170309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2016] [Accepted: 01/02/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE We developed an original, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) software that subtracts the initial thoracic vertebral three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) image from the follow-up 3D-CT image. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of this CAD software during screening for vertebral metastases on follow-up CT images of primary lung cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The interpretation experiment included 30 sets of follow-up CT scans in primary lung cancer patients and was performed by two readers (readers A and B), who each had 2.5 years' experience reading CT images. In 395 vertebrae from C6 to L3, 46 vertebral metastases were identified as follows: osteolytic metastases (n = 17), osteoblastic metastases (n = 14), combined osteolytic and osteoblastic metastases (n = 6), and pathological fractures (n = 9). Thirty-six lesions were in the anterior component (vertebral body), and 10 lesions were in the posterior component (vertebral arch, transverse process, and spinous process). The area under the curve (AUC) by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis and the sensitivity and specificity for detecting vertebral metastases were compared with and without CAD for each observer. RESULTS Reader A detected 47 abnormalities on CT images without CAD, and 33 of them were true-positive metastatic lesions. Using CAD, reader A detected 57 abnormalities, and 38 were true positives. The sensitivity increased from 0.717 to 0.826, and on ROC curve analysis, AUC with CAD was significantly higher than that without CAD (0.849 vs. 0.902, p = 0.021). Reader B detected 40 abnormalities on CT images without CAD, and 36 of them were true-positive metastatic lesions. Using CAD, reader B detected 44 abnormalities, and 39 were true positives. The sensitivity increased from 0.783 to 0.848, and AUC with CAD was nonsignificantly higher than that without CAD (0.889 vs. 0.910, p = 0.341). Both readers detected more osteolytic and osteoblastic metastases with CAD than without CAD. CONCLUSION Our temporal 3D-CT subtraction CAD software easily detected vertebral metastases on the follow-up CT images of lung cancer patients regardless of the osteolytic or osteoblastic nature of the lesions.

Surgical intervention for vertebral metastases may benefit lung cancer patients no less than other patients: a retrospective study. J Med Case Rep 2017; 11:4. [PMID: 28049505 PMCID: PMC5209804 DOI: 10.1186/s13256-016-1157-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2016] [Accepted: 11/23/2016] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal metastasis is considered to have a worse prognosis in lung cancer than in other cancers, but recent clinical studies report improved overall survival of lung cancer. We compared the postoperative prognoses of vertebral metastatic tumors from lung with other types of cancer. METHODS From 2011 to 2015, 31 Japanese patients (mean age 73 years, range 55-88 years; 19 males, 12 females) underwent surgery for spinal metastasis at our center. We observed patients retrospectively in March 2016, dividing them into groups by cancer type: lung (LK group, n = 10); prostate, breast, or thyroid (PB group, n = 12); and other (OT group, n = 9). We compared survival and revised Tokuhashi score, which provides a basis for choosing a treatment course. Neurologic status was graded before and after surgery using the Frankel system. RESULTS Mean follow-up was 16.5 months (range 1-62 months). Only seven of 31 patients (22.6%) were alive at final follow-up. Frankel grade significantly improved postoperatively only in the LK (P = 0.01) and PB (P = 0.048) groups. Revised Tokuhashi score differed across groups (P < 0.0001), and was significantly lower in the LK group than in the PB group (P = 0.00) and OT group (P = 0.02). Postoperative survival was significantly shorter in the LK group than in the PB group (P = 0.01) but did not differ between the LK and OT groups. CONCLUSIONS The revised Tokuhashi score may underestimate the survival of lung cancer patients, who may derive the same benefit from surgical intervention as those with vertebral metastasis from other cancer types.

A Survival Scoring System for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with De Novo Bone Metastases. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0167923.

Abstract
In the pre-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) era, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with de novo bone metastases had a worse prognosis than those without. However, whether epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-TKIs affect the outcomes of EGFR mutant NSCLC patients with de novo bone metastases has not been well studied thus far. We retrospectively studied the effect of EGFR mutation status and first-line EGFR-TKIs on patient outcomes and created a survival scoring system for NSCLC patients with de novo bone metastases. This retrospective study evaluated 1510 NSCLC patients diagnosed between November 2010 and March 2014. Among these patients, 234 patients had de novo bone metastases. We found that 121 of these 234 patients (51.7%) had positive EGFR mutation tests, and a positive EGFR mutation test significantly affected overall survival (OS) (EGFR mutant: 15.2 months, EGFR wild type: 6.5 months; p < 0.001). Other prognostic factors significant in the multivariable analysis for NSCLC with de novo bone metastases included Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS) (OS; PS 0–2: 11.2 months, PS 3–4: 4.9 months; p = 0.002), presence of extraosseous metastases (OS; with extraosseous metastases: 8.8 months, without extraosseous metastases: 14.0 months; p = 0.008), blood lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) (OS; LMR > 3.1: 17.1months, LMR ≤ 3.1: 6.9months; p < 0.001). A positive EGFR mutation status reversed the poor outcomes of NSCLC patients with de novo bone metastases. A simple and useful survival scoring system including the above clinical parameters was thus created for NSCLC patients with de novo bone metastases.
