Abstract
AIMS There is increasing interest in the opportunities offered by Real World Data (RWD) to provide evidence where clinical trial data does not exist, but access to appropriate data sources is frequently cited as a barrier to RWD research. This paper discusses current RWD resources and how they can be accessed for cancer research. MATERIALS AND METHODS There has been significant progress on facilitating RWD access in the last few years across a range of scales, from local hospital research databases, through regional care records and national repositories, to the impact of federated learning approaches on internationally collaborative studies. We use a series of case studies, principally from the UK, to illustrate how RWD can be accessed for research and healthcare improvement at each of these scales. RESULTS For each example we discuss infrastructure and governance requirements with the aim of encouraging further work in this space that will help to fill evidence gaps in oncology. CONCLUSION There are challenges, but real-world data research across a range of scales is already a reality. Taking advantage of the current generation of data sources requires researchers to carefully define their research question and the scale at which it would be best addressed.

Abstract
AIMS Previous work found that during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, 34% of patients with lung cancer treated with curative-intent radiotherapy in the UK had a change to their centre's usual standard of care treatment (Banfill et al. Clin Oncol 2022;34:19-27). We present the impact of these changes on patient outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The COVID-RT Lung database was a prospective multicentre UK cohort study including patients with stage I-III lung cancer referred for and/or treated with radical radiotherapy between April and October 2020. Data were collected on patient demographics, radiotherapy and systemic treatments, toxicity, relapse and death. Multivariable Cox and logistic regression were used to assess the impact of having a change to radiotherapy on survival, distant relapse and grade ≥3 acute toxicity. The impact of omitting chemotherapy on survival and relapse was assessed using multivariable Cox regression. RESULTS Patient and follow-up forms were available for 1280 patients. Seven hundred and sixty-five (59.8%) patients were aged over 70 years and 603 (47.1%) were female. The median follow-up was 213 days (119, 376). Patients with stage I-II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who had a change to their radiotherapy had no significant increase in distant relapse (P = 0.859) or death (P = 0.884); however, they did have increased odds of grade ≥3 acute toxicity (P = 0.0348). Patients with stage III NSCLC who had a change to their radiotherapy had no significant increase in distant relapse (P = 0.216) or death (P = 0.789); however, they did have increased odds of grade ≥3 acute toxicity (P < 0.001). Patients with stage III NSCLC who had their chemotherapy omitted had no significant increase in distant relapse (P = 0.0827) or death (P = 0.0661). CONCLUSION This study suggests that changes to radiotherapy and chemotherapy made in response to the COVID-19 pandemic did not significantly affect distant relapse or survival. Changes to radiotherapy, namely increased hypofractionation, led to increased odds of grade ≥3 acute toxicity. These results are important, as hypofractionated treatments can help to reduce hospital attendances in the context of potential future emergency situations.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) There is growing evidence associating dose to the base of the heart to reduced survival of lung cancer patients (McWilliam EJC 2017). However, randomized evidence on the benefits of sparing the base of the heart is missing. In this study we investigate variability in the shape between patients of heart contours used in planning as a natural experiment to evaluate selective heart sparing. The core assumption is that regions that are not included in the heart delineation will not be spared. MATERIALS/METHODS Data was collected for 1705 lung cancer patients treated in one center between 2010 and 2016 with IMRT/VMAT (55-66Gy in 20-33#) or SABR (54-60Gy in 3-8#), planned using manual heart contours, called delineation 1. Consistent reference heart contours were obtained using a commercial autocontouring software, called delineation 2. Heart shapes were mapped to spherical coordinates (φ, Φ, r) and the difference in radius Δr = r1 - r2 for each set of angles φ, Φ was calculated for all patients. A large Δr means that the manual delineation use for planning is relatively large in the direction. Cox-regression was performed for each set of angles using Δr, r2 and its interaction using overall survival as endpoint. Permutation testing is used to avoid multiple testing issues. The aim is to locate a region of the heart where bigger delineations lead to better sparing and hence better survival. RESULTS On average the heart base in our manual contours extends 34 mm more superior than automatic contours, because our protocol stipulates the inclusion of the full pericardial sac. Δr was not correlated with any clinical variables and is therefore a good candidate as instrumental variable in causal inference. Univariable Cox regression of Δr showed a uniform worsening of survival with larger manual delineations, likely due to reduced overall sparing given the use of volumetric dose constraints. After including the interaction with r2, no significant heart regions were found. However, analysis using the overall volume of the manual and auto-delineated heart did show a small but significant interaction effect where larger manual delineations improved outcome for smaller hearts. Our interpretation is that delineation variability relative to autocontouring (e.g., 1.9 mm SD at right atrium, up to 15 mm SD at apex) is not big enough to impact significantly on the heart dose and therewith survival because volumetric costs functions are used. In the future we will extend this analysis to include planned dose. CONCLUSION Variability in contouring in our cohort is not large enough to be used as a natural experiment to test the impact of selective heart sparing. However, larger volume delineations of small hearts are associated with reduced mortality, suggesting the importance of sparing the base of the heart where most contouring variability occurs.

Abstract
The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) held a virtual consensus-building process on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer in 2021. The consensus included a multidisciplinary panel of 34 leading experts in the management of lung cancer. The aim of the consensus was to develop recommendations on topics that are not covered in detail in the current ESMO Clinical Practice Guideline and where the available evidence is either limited or conflicting. The main topics identified for discussion were: (i) tissue and biomarkers analyses; (ii) early and locally advanced disease; (iii) metastatic disease and (iv) clinical trial design, patient's perspective and miscellaneous. The expert panel was divided into four working groups to address questions relating to one of the four topics outlined above. Relevant scientific literature was reviewed in advance. Recommendations were developed by the working groups and then presented to the entire panel for further discussion and amendment before voting. This manuscript presents the recommendations developed, including findings from the expert panel discussions, consensus recommendations and a summary of evidence supporting each recommendation.

Abstract
Background The phase III PACIFIC trial (NCT02125461) established consolidation durvalumab as standard of care for patients with unresectable, stage III non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and no disease progression following chemoradiotherapy (CRT). In some cases, patients with stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC are considered operable, but the relative benefit of surgery is unclear. We report a post hoc, exploratory analysis of clinical outcomes in the PACIFIC trial, in patients with or without stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC. Materials and methods Patients with unresectable, stage III NSCLC and no disease progression after ≥2 cycles of platinum-based, concurrent CRT were randomized 2 : 1 to receive durvalumab (10 mg/kg intravenously; once every 2 weeks for up to 12 months) or placebo, 1-42 days after CRT. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS; assessed by blinded independent central review according to RECIST version 1.1) and overall survival (OS). Treatment effects within subgroups were estimated by hazard ratios (HRs) from unstratified Cox proportional hazards models. Results Of 713 randomized patients, 287 (40%) had stage IIIA-N2 disease. Baseline characteristics were similar between patients with and without stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC. With a median follow-up of 14.5 months (range: 0.2-29.9 months), PFS was improved with durvalumab versus placebo in both patients with [HR = 0.46; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.33-0.65] and without (HR = 0.62; 95% CI 0.48-0.80) stage IIIA-N2 disease. Similarly, with a median follow-up of 25.2 months (range: 0.2-43.1 months), OS was improved with durvalumab versus placebo in patients with (HR = 0.56; 95% CI 0.39-0.79) or without (HR = 0.78; 95% CI 0.57-1.06) stage IIIA-N2 disease. Durvalumab had a manageable safety profile irrespective of stage IIIA-N2 status. Conclusions Consistent with the intent-to-treat population, treatment benefits with durvalumab were confirmed in patients with stage IIIA-N2, unresectable NSCLC. Prospective studies are needed to determine the optimal treatment approach for patients who are deemed operable. The PACIFIC trial established durvalumab after CRT as standard of care for unresectable, stage III NSCLC. The optimum multimodal treatment strategy for patients with potentially resectable, stage IIIA-N2 NSCLC is unknown. Survival benefit with durvalumab was observed in patients with stage IIIA-N2, unresectable NSCLC in this post hoc analysis. Durvalumab after CRT also exhibited a manageable safety profile in this subpopulation from PACIFIC. Studies of surgical vs. non-surgical strategies are needed to establish the best approach for potentially operable patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recent studies suggest that immune-related cells can be recruited for anti-tumor functions as well as tumor progression and the interplay between systemic inflammation and local immune response may play a major role in the development and progression of various cancers including lung cancer. Inflammatory markers, such as neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) can be used as surrogate biomarkers of host immune status. In this work, associations between neutrophils, lymphocytes, platelets, NLR, PLR, SII and overall survival (OS) are investigated in two cohorts of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with fractionated radiotherapy (RT) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and a cohort of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients treated with fractionated RT. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data from 2513 lung cancer patients were retrospectively analyzed. Baseline NLR, PLR, and SII (NLR × platelet count) were calculated from full blood test prior to RT initiation. Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between systemic inflammation markers and known clinical factors with OS. RESULTS The two-year OS was 42%, 63%, and 62% in the NSCLC fractionated RT, SBRT, and SCLC cohort. NLR (per 1 unit: hazard ratio [HR]: 1.04, p < 0.05) and SII (per 100 × 109/L: HR: 1.01, p < 0.05) remained the strongest independent factors of OS in multivariable Cox analyses, correcting for clinical factors in early-stage and locally advanced NSCLC and SCLC patients treated with RT. DISCUSSION This single-center large-cohort study suggests that baseline NLR and SII are independent prognostic biomarkers associated with OS in locally advanced and early-stage NSCLC patients treated with either curative-intent fractionated RT or SBRT and SCLC patients treated with curative-intent fractionated RT. External validation is warranted to evaluate the utility of these biomarkers for patients' stratification and adapting new treatment approaches.

Abstract
Predictive and prognostic models hold great potential to support clinical decision making in oncology and could ultimately facilitate a paradigm shift to a more personalised form of treatment. While a large number of models relevant to the field of oncology have been developed, few have been translated into clinical use and assessment of clinical utility is not currently considered a routine part of model development. In this narrative review of the clinical evaluation of prediction models in oncology, we propose a high-level process diagram for the life cycle of a clinical model, encompassing model commissioning, clinical implementation and ongoing quality assurance, which aims to bridge the gap between model development and clinical implementation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thoracic CT is a useful tool in the early diagnosis of patients with COVID-19. Typical appearances include patchy ground glass shadowing. Thoracic radiotherapy uses daily cone beam CT imaging (CBCT) to check for changes in patient positioning and anatomy prior to treatment through a qualitative assessment of lung appearance by radiographers. Observation of changes related to COVID-19 infection during this process may facilitate earlier testing improving patient management and staff protection. METHODS A tool was developed to create overview reports for all CBCTs for each patient throughout their treatment. Reports contain coronal maximum intensity projection (MIP's) of all CBCTs and plots of lung density over time. A single therapeutic radiographer undertook a blinded off-line audit that reviewed 150 patient datasets for tool optimisation in which medical notes were compared to image findings. This cohort included 75 patients treated during the pandemic and 75 patients treated between 2014 and 2017. The process was repeated retrospectively on a subset of the 285 thoracic radiotherapy patients treated between January-June 2020 to assess the efficiency of the tool and process. RESULTS Three patients in the n = 150 optimisation cohort had confirmed COVID-19 infections during their radiotherapy. Two of these were detected by the reported image assessment process. The third case was not detected on CBCT due to minimal density changes in the visible part of the lungs. Within the retrospective cohort four patients had confirmed COVID-19 based on RT-PCR tests, three of which were retrospectively detected by the reported process. CONCLUSION The preliminary results indicate that the presence of COVID-19 can be detected on CBCT by therapeutic radiographers. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE This process has now been extended to clinical service with daily assessments of all thoracic CBCTs. Changes noted are referred for oncologist review.

Abstract
AIMS In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, guidelines on reduced fractionation for patients treated with curative-intent radiotherapy were published, aimed at reducing the number of hospital attendances and potential exposure of vulnerable patients to minimise the risk of COVID-19 infection. We describe the changes that took place in the management of patients with stage I-III lung cancer from April to October 2020. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lung Radiotherapy during the COVID-19 Pandemic (COVID-RT Lung) is a prospective multicentre UK cohort study. The inclusion criteria were: patients with stage I-III lung cancer referred for and/or treated with radical radiotherapy between 2nd April and 2nd October 2020. Patients who had had a change in their management and those who continued with standard management were included. Data on demographics, COVID-19 diagnosis, diagnostic work-up, radiotherapy and systemic treatment were collected and reported as counts and percentages. Patient characteristics associated with a change in treatment were analysed using multivariable binary logistic regression. RESULTS In total, 1553 patients were included (median age 72 years, 49% female); 93 (12%) had a change to their diagnostic investigation and 528 (34%) had a change to their treatment from their centre's standard of care as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Age ≥70 years, male gender and stage III disease were associated with a change in treatment on multivariable analysis. Patients who had their treatment changed had a median of 15 fractions of radiotherapy compared with a median of 20 fractions in those who did not have their treatment changed. Low rates of COVID-19 infection were seen during or after radiotherapy, with only 21 patients (1.4%) developing the disease. CONCLUSIONS The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in changes to patient treatment in line with national recommendations. The main change was an increase in hypofractionation. Further work is ongoing to analyse the impact of these changes on patient outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS So far, the impact of intra-thoracic anatomical changes (ITACs) on patients treated with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer is unknown. Studying these is important, as ITACs have the potential to impact the workflow and reduce treatment quality. The aim of this study was to assess and categorise ITACs, as detected on cone beam computed tomography scans (CBCT), and their subsequent impact upon treatment in lung cancer patients treated with SABR. MATERIALS AND METHODS CBCTs from 100 patients treated with SABR for early non-small cell lung cancer were retrospectively reviewed. The presence of the following ITACs was assessed: atelectasis, infiltrative change, pleural effusion, baseline shift and gross tumour volume (GTV) increase and decrease. ITACs were graded using a traffic light protocol. This was adapted from a tool previously developed to assesses potential target undercoverage or organ at risk overdose. The frequency of physics or clinician review was noted. A linear mixed effects model was used to assess the relationship between ITAC grade and set-up time (time from first CBCT to beam delivery). RESULTS ITACs were observed in 22% of patients. Twenty-one per cent of these were categorised as 'red', implying a risk of underdosage to the GTV. Most were 'yellow' (51%), indicating little impact upon planning target volume coverage of the GTV. Physics or clinician review was required in 10% of all treatment fractions overall. Three patients needed their treatment replanned. The mixed effect model analysis showed that ITACs cause a significant prolongation of set-up time (Χ2(3) = 9.22, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION Most ITACs were minor, but associated with unplanned physics or clinician review, representing a potentially significant resource burden. ITACs also had a significant impact upon set-up time, with consequences for the wider workflow and intra-fraction motion. Detailed guidance on the management of ITACs is needed to provide support for therapeutic radiographers delivering lung SABR.

Abstract
AIMS The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) have been proposed as prognostic markers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The objective of this study was to examine the association of NLR/ALC before and after curative-intent radiotherapy for NSCLC on disease recurrence and overall survival. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of consecutive patients who underwent curative-intent radiotherapy for NSCLC across nine sites in the UK from 1 October 2014 to 1 October 2016. A multivariate analysis was carried out to assess the ability of pre-treatment NLR/ALC, post-treatment NLR/ALC and change in NLR/ALC, adjusted for confounding factors using the Cox proportional hazards model, to predict disease recurrence and overall survival within 2 years of treatment. RESULTS In total, 425 patients were identified with complete blood parameter values. None of the NLR/ALC parameters were independent predictors of disease recurrence. Higher pre-NLR, post-NLR and change in NLR plus lower post-ALC were all independent predictors of worse survival. Receiver operator curve analysis found a pre-NLR > 2.5 (odds ratio 1.71, 95% confidence interval 1.06-2.79, P < 0.05), a post-NLR > 5.5 (odds ratio 2.36, 95% confidence interval 1.49-3.76, P < 0.001), a change in NLR >3.6 (odds ratio 2.41, 95% confidence interval 1.5-3.91, P < 0.001) and a post-ALC < 0.8 (odds ratio 2.86, 95% confidence interval 1.76-4.69, P < 0.001) optimally predicted poor overall survival on both univariate and multivariate analysis when adjusted for confounding factors. Median overall survival for the high-versus low-risk groups were: pre-NLR 770 versus 1009 days (P = 0.34), post-NLR 596 versus 1287 days (P ≤ 0.001), change in NLR 553 versus 1214 days (P ≤ 0.001) and post-ALC 594 versus 1287 days (P ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION NLR and ALC, surrogate markers for systemic inflammation, have prognostic value in NSCLC patients treated with curative-intent radiotherapy. These simple and readily available parameters may have a future role in risk stratification post-treatment to inform the intensity of surveillance protocols.

Abstract
Background The RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signalling pathway has a pivotal role in cancer proliferation and modulating treatment response. Selumetinib inhibits MEK and enhances effects of radiotherapy in preclinical studies. Patients and methods Single-arm, single-centre, open-label phase I trial. Patients with stage III NSCLC unsuitable for concurrent chemo-radiotherapy, or stage IV with dominant thoracic symptoms, were recruited to a dose-finding stage (Fibonacci 3 + 3 design; maximum number = 18) then an expanded cohort (n = 15). Oral selumetinib was administered twice daily (starting dose 50 mg) commencing 7 days prior to thoracic radiotherapy, then with radiotherapy (6-6.5 weeks; 60-66 Gy/30-33 fractions). The primary objective was to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of selumetinib in combination with thoracic radiotherapy. Results 21 patients were enrolled (06/2010-02/2015). Median age: 62y (range 50-73). M:F ratio 12(57%):9(43%). ECOG PS 0:1, 7(33%):14(67%). Stage III 16(76%); IV 5(24%). Median GTV 64 cm3 (range 1-224 cm3). 15 patients comprised the expanded cohort at starting dose. All 21 patients completed thoracic radiotherapy as planned and received induction chemotherapy. 13 (62%) patients received the full dose of selumetinib.In the starting cohort no enhanced radiotherapy-related toxicity was seen. Two patients had dose-limiting toxicity (1x grade 3 diarrhoea/fatigue and 1x pulmonary embolism). Commonest grade 3-4 adverse events: lymphopaenia (19/21 patients) and hypertension (7/21 patients). One patient developed grade 3 oesophagitis. No patients developed grade ≥3 radiation pneumonitis. Two patients were alive at the time of analysis (24 and 26 months follow-up, respectively). Main cause of first disease progression: distant metastases ± locoregional progression (12/21 [57.1%] patients). Six patients had confirmed/suspected pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. Conclusion We report poor outcome and severe lymphopenia in most patients treated with thoracic radiotherapy and selumetinib at RP2D in combination, contributing to confirmed/clinically suspected pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia. These results suggest that this combination should not be pursued in a phase II trial.ClinicalTrials.gov reference: NCT01146756.

Abstract
AIMS There is a paucity of evidence on which to produce recommendations on neither the clinical nor the imaging follow-up of lung cancer patients after curative-intent radiotherapy. In the 2019 National Institute for Health and Care Excellence lung cancer guidelines, further research into risk-stratification models to inform follow-up protocols was recommended. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of consecutive patients undergoing curative-intent radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer from 1 October 2014 to 1 October 2016 across nine UK trusts was carried out. Twenty-two demographic, clinical and treatment-related variables were collected and multivariable logistic regression was used to develop and validate two risk-stratification models to determine the risk of disease recurrence and death. RESULTS In total, 898 patients were included in the study. The mean age was 72 years, 63% (562/898) had a good performance status (0-1) and 43% (388/898), 15% (134/898) and 42% (376/898) were clinical stage I, II and III, respectively. Thirty-six per cent (322/898) suffered disease recurrence and 41% (369/898) died in the first 2 years after radiotherapy. The ASSENT score (age, performance status, smoking status, staging endobronchial ultrasound, N-stage, T-stage) was developed, which stratifies the risk for disease recurrence within 2 years, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) for the total score of 0.712 (0.671-0.753) and 0.72 (0.65-0.789) in the derivation and validation sets, respectively. The STEPS score (sex, performance status, staging endobronchial ultrasound, T-stage, N-stage) was developed, which stratifies the risk of death within 2 years, with an AUROC for the total score of 0.625 (0.581-0.669) and 0.607 (0.53-0.684) in the derivation and validation sets, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These validated risk-stratification models could be used to inform follow-up protocols after curative-intent radiotherapy for lung cancer. The modest performance highlights the need for more advanced risk prediction tools.
