AbstractObjective: To study the effects of single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the OPRM1 and ABCB1 genes on the analgesic effect and consumption of sufentanil after thoracoscopic-assisted radical resection of lung cancer.Methods: A total of 225 Chinese Han nationality patients undergoing thoracoscopic-assisted radical resection of lung cancer were enrolled in the present study. Among them, 132 were males (58.67%) and 93 (41.33%) were females having American Society of Anesthesiologists statuses classified as grades I or II. The rs1799971, rs563649 and rs1323040 genotypes of the OPRM1 gene and rs2032582, rs1045642 and rs1128503 genotypes of the ABCB1 gene were detected by Sanger sequencing. The state anxiety index and pressure pain threshold were assessed preoperatively. Sufentanil was administered intravenously to maintain anesthesia. The doses and side effects of sufentanil consumed 6 h (T1), 24 h (T2) and 48 h (T3) after surgery were recorded.Results: The sufentanil doses at T1, T2 and T3 were significantly higher in radical-operation lung cancer patients with mutant homozygous rs1799971 and rs1323040 loci in the OPRM1 gene and rs2032582 and rs1128503 loci in the ABCB1 gene. The doses of sufentanil consumed by mutant heterozygous lung cancer patients at T1, T2 and T3 were significantly higher than those consumed by patients without mutations, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in sufentanil doses consumed by lung cancer patients with mutant homozygous, mutant heterozygous and wild-type rs563649 locus of the OPRM1 gene and rs1045642 locus of the ABCB1 gene at T1, T2 and T3 (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the visual analog scale scores at T1, T2 and T3 for different genotypes of OPRM1 and ABCB1 genes in lung cancer patients (P>0.05). No significant difference was found between the adverse reactions of OPRM1 and ABCB1 genotypes in patients undergoing radical resection of lung cancer (P>0.05).Conclusion: The rs1799971 and rs1323040 polymorphisms of the OPRM1 gene and rs2032582 and rs1128503 polymorphisms of the ABCB1 gene are related to the analgesic effect and consumed dose of sufentanil in Chinese Han patients undergoing radical operation of lung cancer.

Abstract Objectives Lung cancer patients have been reported to have a high incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and a high recurrence rate of VTE. However, there are no detailed reports of VTE in lung cancer patients who underwent surgery after induction therapy. We examined the incidence and clinical features of VTE in these patients. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 89 patients with non-small cell lung cancer who underwent surgery after induction therapy at our department between April 2009 and March 2018. The incidence of VTE, clinical features, and long-term prognosis were retrospectively examined. Results Among the 89 patients, 4 (4.5%) developed VTE, and there was no significant difference in the background characteristics between patients with and without VTE. All four patients developed VTE during preoperative treatment. In the patients with VTE, anticoagulant therapy with oral anticoagulants was administered after heparinization, and the median duration of anticoagulant therapy was 18.7 months. There were no cases of symptomatic VTE recurrence after surgery, regardless of lung cancer recurrence. Although the overall survival (OS) showed no significant difference between patients with and without VTE, the disease-free survival was significantly shorter in patients with VTE than in those without it (median 6.3 vs. 71.6 months, p < 0.01). Conclusions In induction cases, the incidence of VTE was 4.5%, and it can at least be stated that no symptomatic VTE developed or recurred after surgery. Patients with VTE in induction therapy had short progression-free survival and required careful follow-up after surgery.

AbstractThe Asbestos Injury Relief Act in Korea requires that asbestos exposure be assessed through clinical examination and chest computed tomography (CT). However, a more specific measurement of asbestos characteristics in the lung tissue may be appropriate. We aimed to investigate the asbestos burden and characterize asbestos fibers in patients with lung cancer and ultimately assess the relationship between occupational and environmental asbestos exposure and lung cancer in Korea. We evaluated 37 lung cancer patients (LCPs) from Busan. The factors affecting asbestos burden in LCPs were analyzed using a multiple regression analysis. History of asbestos exposure (environmental/occupational), male sex, and old age were the main factors affecting asbestos burden in lung tissues of LCPs. These factors had an approximate 37% adjusted coefficient of determination. There was a significant difference in the length of asbestos fibers (4.06–37.6 µm vs. 4.26–91.7 µm) and aspect ratio (4.5–151.9 vs. 5.6–735.6) between those who were occupationally exposed to asbestos and those who were environmentally exposed (P < 0.01). Therefore, both environmental/occupational exposure to asbestos should be strongly managed to reduce the risk of lung cancer, and exposure should be assessed according to the characteristics of asbestos fibers in the lung tissue.

Background: To compare the survival rate of paclitaxel plus cisplatin (PC arm), paclitaxel plus gemcitabine (PG arm) and gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC arm) in chemotherapy patients with non resectable lung cancer. Methods: This was a retrospective observational study to evaluate chemotherapy response among non resectable lung cancer patients with their survival at cancer center CMH, Dhaka since 01 July 2013 to 31 March 2015. One hundred fifty-four (154) non resectable lung cancer patients were randomly divided into three groups, 50 patients in PC arm, 51 patients in PG arm and 53 patients in GC arm. In PC arm paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 (day 1) with cisplatin 75mg/m2 (day 1), in PG arm Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 (day 1) with gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 (days 1 and 8) and in GC arm gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 (days 1 and 8) with cisplatin 100mg/m2 (day 1). Results: Patients characteristics were similar between the three groups. The overall response rate was 40% in the PC arm,43.1% in the PG arm, 43.4% in the GC arm. The median survival time in PC arm was 8.5 months, in PG arm was 8.8 months, in GC arm was 9.2 months. The major side effect was myelosuppression which accounts 71% patients. The average treatment costs were 57% and 30% lower in PC arm as compared with GC and PG arm respectively. Conclusion: The median survival time, disease free survival time and 1-year survival rate in PC, PG, GC arms without significant difference. Treatment were well tolerable; quality of life parameter was mostly similar but paclitaxel with cisplatin was most cost effective than others chemotherapy regimen.

148 Background: PD-1 inhibitors have shown significant clinical activity in different cancer types. However, responses in pts with NSCLC are variable, and insights are needed to identify a predictive biomarker of response with greater diagnostic accuracy. Here we tested the hypothesis tha tserum TNF-a level is predictive of response to anti-PD-1 treatment. Methods: NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab were studied. Pts received nivolumab (3mg/kg, q2w) or pembrolizumab ( 2mg/kg, q3w). Pts on anti-PD1 were classified as either responders (R) deriving clinical benefit (with SD, PR, CR) or non-responders (NR) not deriving clinical benefit (PD) based on RECIST criteria.Serum was collected at baseline; at 2-3 weeks after the first dose (early stage); and at the time of response evaluation. Serum TNF-a levels were determined by Luminex kit. Changes in serum TNF-a levels and their strength of association with response were compared with Non-parametric Analysis. Results: Evaluable plasma samples were collected from twenty-one NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab or pembrolizumab. There was no significant difference in baseline serum TNF-a levels in responders (n = 15) vs non-responders (n = 6). Between baseline and early stage ,serum TNF-a levels significantly increased in responders (P = 0.010), while in non-responders, no significant change was found. High early change rate of serum TNF-a levels ( > 50%) was observed only in responders(n = 7).At early stage, responders had significantly higher serum TNF-a levels than non-responders(P = 0.008). We found no significant difference in serum TNF-a levels at the time of response evaluation. Conclusions: Early changes in serum TNF-a levels and high serum TNF-a levels at early stage in non-small cell lung cancer patients correlate to response to anti-PD-1 treatment.

Background: MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) has previously been demonstrated as a potential biomarker in diagnosis of various human tumors. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the possibility of miR-21 as a biomarker for early detection of lung cancer. Methods: Relevant lung cancer-related miRNA microarray datasets were collected from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and EBI ArrayExpress database up to February 2014. Quality control of the output data was estimated using Limma package and ExiMiR package in R. Standardized mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from selected datasets was pooled. Heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q test and the I2 statistic, and a p value <0.0.05 or I2 >50% was defined as significant heterogeneity. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis was conducted to evaluate the stability of the pooled results. Four miRNA datasets (GSE24704, GSE17681, GSE27486 and GSE40738) from blood samples were selected, including 153 lung cancer patients and 109 healthy people. Results: The pooled results generated by random-effects model revealed that no significant difference was observed between case and control groups (SMD = 0.58; 95% CI, −0.04 to 1.19; p = 0.07) with significant heterogeneity (p = 0.0032, I2 = 78.2%; p = 0.06). Sensitivity analysis indicated that the results of the meta-analysis were stable. Conclusions: MiR-21 expression levels in whole blood and peripheral blood cells did not show significant differences between lung cancer patients and healthy controls, and it might be ineffective to measure miR-21 expression to achieve an early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Abstract Background: Nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in lung cancer. However, the results of previous studies about NO in the occurrence, progress and therapy were not consistent. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between NO and lung cancer.Method: We carried out comprehensive search in the databases, and collected related studies. The data of fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) or blood NO in different populations (lung cancer patients and control subjects) and different time points (before therapy and after therapy) were extracted by two investigators. A random effect model was applied to analyze the differences of FeNO and blood NO in different populations and different time points. To further compare NO level of each subgroup with different pathological types and different stages, a network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed.Results: 50 studies including 2551 cases and 1691 controls were adopted in this meta-analysis. The FeNO (SMD 3.01, 95% CI 1.89-4.13, p < 0.00001) and blood NO (SMD 1.34, 95% CI 0.84-1.85, p < 0.00001) level in lung cancer patients was much higher than that in control subjects. NMA model indicated blood NO level in each cancer type except SCLC was higher than that in control patients. There was no significant difference of blood NO level among four kinds of lung cancer patients. Blood NO level in LCC patients (SUCRA=83.5%) was the highest. Blood NO level in advanced stage but not early stage was higher than that in control subjects. Patients in advanced stage (SUCRA=95.5%) had the highest blood NO level. No significant difference of FeNO (SMD -0.04, 95% CI -0.46-0.38, p > 0.05) and blood NO level (SMD -0.36, 95% CI -1.08-0.36, p > 0.05) was observed between pretreatment and posttreatment in all patients. However, FeNO level elevated (SMD 0.28, 95% CI 0.04-0.51, p = 0.02) and blood NO level decreased in NSCLC patients (SMD -0.95, 95% CI -1.89-0.00, p = 0.05) after therapy. Conclusion: FeNO and blood NO level would contribute to diagnosis of lung cancer and evaluation of therapy effect, especially for NSCLC patients.

Abstract Objective: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide and CMTM8 is a potential tumor suppressor gene, which is down-regulated in lung cancer. The objective of this research was to assess the association of CMTM8 genetic polymorphisms with lung cancer risk in Chinese Han population.Methods: To evaluate the correlation between CMTM8 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk, Agena MassArray platform was used for genotype determination among 509 lung cancer patients and 506 controls. Multiple genetic models, stratification analysis and haploview analysis was used by calculating odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).Results: Significant associations were detected between CMTM8 rs6771238 and an increased lung cancer risk in codominant (adjusted OR = 1.57, 95%CI: 1.01-2.42, p = 0.044) and dominant (adjusted OR = 1.54, 95%CI: 1.01-2.36, p = 0.047)models. After gender stratification analysis,weobserved that rs6771238 was related to an increased risk of lung squamous cell carcinoma, while rs6771238 was associated with anincreased risk of lung adenocarcinoma. Rs9835916 and rs1077868 were correlated with lung cancer staging.Rs9835916 was linked to increased risk of lymph node metastasis in lung cancer patients. Conclusions: Our study firstly reported that the CMTM8 polymorphisms were a risk factors for lung cancer, which suggested the potential roles of CMTM8 in the development of lung cancerin Chinese Han population.

Acrylamide (AA) is a carcinogenic substance found in food, cigarette smoke and in an environment exposed to acrylamide. This study aims to analyze AA levels in dried blood spot (DBS) samples of lung cancer patients with smoking record, without smoking record, and also in the negative blank. Analysis of AA levels was determined by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and DBS extraction using protein precipitation techniques. Mass detection was done using positive electron spray ionization (ESI) and multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) type with m/z values of 71.99 > 55.23 for acrylamide and m/z 260.16 > 116.04 for propranolol as the internal standard. AA levels in lung cancer patients with smoking record is in the range of 4.670 μg/mL to 11.986 μg/mL. AA levels in lung cancer patients without smoking record is in the range of 2.041 μg/mL to 12.702 μg/mL. Data on AA levels on negative blanks is in the range of 2.72 μg/mL to 3.51 μg/mL. The results of the independent sample t-test (p>0.05) showed that AA levels in patients with smoking record and those without smoking record did not differ significantly. Then, the Mann-Whitney test was performed between the lung cancer group and the negative blank group and a significant difference was found between the two groups (p<0.05).

17126 Background: To investigate the correlation of C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumor markers such as carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA125, cytokeratin 19 antibody (Cyfra 21–1) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods: CRP, CEA, CA125, Cyfra 21–1 were measured in the serum of 79 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (stage III and IV ) by independent samples t test. Results: It showed statistically significant difference (P < 0.05) in the level of CRP, CEA, CA125, Cyfra211 between lung cancer patients (25.21 ± 19.12 mg/L, 62.89 ± 53.96 ng/L, 46.36 ± 30.03 U/L, 6.85 ± 2.42 ng/L, respectively) and the control subjects. CRP, CA125 showed no significant difference between squamous carcinoma and adenocarcinoma (P = 0.832, 0.406, respectively). CEA was higher in adenocarcinoma than in squamous carcinoma (P = 0.002). Cyfra211 was lower in adenocarcinoma than in squamous carcinoma (P = 0.039). The increase of CRP was accompanied with the increase of CEA, CA125 and Cyfra211 (p < 0.05). At the same time, CRP elevated while CEA, CA125, Cyfra211 increased (p < 0.05). Conclusions: All of CRP, CEA, CA125 and Cyfra211 increased in advanced non-small lung cancer. Combined monitoring on CRP with CEA, CA125, Cyfra211 may be a complementary method in advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
