8550 Background: Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancerous deaths globally. High mutation burden is a special character in lung adenocarcinoma patients. Mutation burden is usually based on the number of non-synonymous mutations implying the instability of genome. We hypothesize genome-wide mutation burden indicates mutation degree and is correlated with prognostic in lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was performed on 98 Chinese lung adenocarcinoma patients with tumor and normal tissue to a mean depth of 49.6ⅹ. The total number of non-synonymous somatic mutations was calculated from the sequencing data of each patient. Patients were divided into high mutation burden and low mutation burden groups in accordance with the mean mutation burden and Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed for survival analysis between these two groups. The association between mutation burden and age or smoking status was analyzed by Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Results: Among these 98 patients, the values of mutation burden varied from 5 to 1121 with mean value 161.8, 36 (36.7%) patients with smoking history and 34 (34.7%) patients were older than 65 years; the numbers of patients in I, II, III stage were 19 (19.4%), 16 (16.3%) and 63 (64.3%) respectively. 32 patients were classified into high mutation burden group, the other 66 patients classified into low mutation burden group. Survival analysis showed a significantly longer disease free survival (DFS) in low mutation burden group (p-value = 0.0133).Mutation burden was significantly associated with age ( < 65 vs ≥65, p-value = 0.0208) and smoking status (p-value = 8.67ⅹ10-4). Conclusions: The association between mutation burden and age or smoking status suggested the high risk for mutation burden accumulation. The significant difference of DFS between high mutation burden and low mutation burden groups reveals the potential of mutation burden as one of the prognostic factors in patients with lung adenocarcinomas.

7523 Background: Patients with stage IV adenocarcinoma whose tumors harbor EGFR mutations have high rates of response (∼ 75%) and prolonged progression free survival after EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment. Adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy improves disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with resected stages IB-IIIA NSCLC. To see if adjuvant treatment with EGFR TKI (gefitinib or erlotinib) improves DFS in patients with EGFR mutation NSCLC, we conducted a retrospective review of patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR mutations, some of whom received EGFR TKIs postoperatively. Methods: With Institutional Review Board approval, clinical information was obtained on all patients with stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR exon 19 or 21 mutations that underwent resection at MSKCC between May 2002 and August 2008. Age, gender, type of surgery, histology, EGFR mutation status (exon 19 deletions and exon 21 L858R), stage, perioperative therapy and survival were recorded. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis were performed. Results: We studied 150 patients (112 women, 38 men) with completely resected stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma whose resection specimens contained EGFR activating mutations in exon 19 or 21. Median age was 69. Forty two patients (28%) received cytotoxic chemotherapy. Forty eight (32%) received either erlotinib (n=26) or gefitinib (n=22) postoperatively. The median time on TKI was 16 months. The median DFS was 43 months in the group that received a TKI vs. 31 months for those that did not. After controlling for stage, individuals who received adjuvant gefitinib or erlotinib had a better DFS (HR=0.38, 95%CI: 0.16–0.90) than the non-TKI group (p=0.03). The median overall survival has not been reached. Conclusions: These data indicate that the adjuvant use of either gefitinib or erlotinib improves DFS in patients with completely resected stage I -III lung adenocarcinomas with mutations in EGFR exons 19 and 21. These data justify a randomized trial in similar patients. [Table: see text]

Background: The ratio of hemoglobin to red cell distribution width (HRR) has been described as an effective prognostic factor in several types of cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic role of preoperative HRR in resected-lung-adenocarcinoma patients. Methods: We enrolled 342 consecutive patients. Age, sex, surgical resection, adjuvant treatments, pathological stage, preoperative hemoglobin, red cell distribution width, and their ratio were recorded for each patient. Results: Mean age was 66 years (SD: 9.0). There were 163 females (47.1%); 169 patients (49.4%) had tumors at stage I, 71 (20.8%) at stage II, and 102 (29.8%) at stage III. In total, 318 patients (93.0%) underwent lobectomy, and 24 (7.0%) pneumonectomy. Disease-free survival multivariable analysis disclosed an increased hazard ratio (HR) of relapse for preoperative HRR lower than 1.01 (HR = 2.20, 95%CI: (1.30–3.72), p = 0.004), as well as for N1 single-node (HR = 2.55, 95%CI: (1.33–4.90), p = 0.005) and multiple-level lymph node involvement compared to N0 for both N1 (HR = 9.16, 95%CI:(3.65–23.0), p < 0.001) and N2 (HR = 10.5, 95%CI:(3.44–32.2, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Pre-operative HRR is an effective prognostic factor of disease-free survival in resected-lung-adenocarcinoma patients, together with the level of pathologic node involvement.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Conflicting results have been reported about the prognostic value of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) protein and gene expression in lung adenocarcinoma. METHODS We performed a comprehensive online search to explore the association between PD-L1 expression (protein and messenger RNA) and overall survival (OS) or disease-free survival. Outcomes also included pooled rates of high PD-L1 protein expression in different cell types, per threshold used and per antibody used. A pooled gene expression analysis was also performed on 3 transcriptomic data sets that were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database and the Gene Expression Omnibus database. RESULTS A total of 6488 patients from 25 studies were included. The pooled results suggested that high PD-L1 expression was associated with shorter OS [hazard ratio (HR) 1.57; P &lt; 0.001] and disease-free survival (HR 1.341; P = 0.037) in the overall population. The overall pooled rate of high PD-L1 protein expression was 29% (95% confidence interval 23–34%) in tumour cells. In subgroup analysis, high PD-L1 protein expression in tumour cells predicted worse OS and disease-free survival. A pooled analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas and Gene Expression Omnibus data sets revealed that higher levels of PD-L1 messenger RNA predicted poorer OS in the entire population. CONCLUSIONS This study is, to our knowledge, the largest pooled analysis on the subject to shed light on the high expression rate of PD-L1 and the prognostic value of high PD-L1 expression in resected lung adenocarcinomas. PD-L1 gene expression is a promising prognostic factor for patients with surgically resected lung adenocarcinoma. Standardization of staining should be underscored prior to routine implementation.

Red Blood Cell Distribution

Background: Red blood cell distribution width is a measure of the variation of erythrocyte volume and has recently been advocated as a prognostic tool in neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases. We studied the prognostic role of preoperative red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in resected pN1 lung adenocarcinoma patients. Methods: Sixty-seven consecutive pN1 lung adenocarcinoma patients operated in the last two years were retrospectively evaluated in the present study. Age, sex, smoking status, type of surgical resection, neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatments, pathological stage, T and N status, tumor size, preoperative hemoglobin (Hb) and RDW, preoperative neutrophils, lymphocytes, and their ratio were collected for each patient. Outpatient follow-up was performed and date of relapse was recorded. Results: There were 24 females (35.8%). Twenty-eight patients (41.8%) belonged to stage 3A and thirty-nine patients (58.2%) to stage 2B. Mean preoperative RDW % was 14.1 (IQR: 12.9–14.8). Univariate analysis disclosed preoperative RDW as strictly related to disease-free survival (p = 0.02), which was confirmed in the exploratory multivariable analysis (p = 0.003). Conclusions: Pre-operative RDW is an effective prognostic factor of disease-free survival in resected pN1 lung adenocarcinoma; it could therefore be considered as a further tool for planning postoperative adjuvant treatments and setting up an adequate follow-up program.

Purpose The survival benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with resected stage II-III non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is modest. Efforts to develop prognostic or predictive biomarkers in these patients have not yielded clinically useful tests. We report findings from the Lung Adjuvant Cisplatin Evaluation (LACE)-Bio-II study, in which we analyzed next-generation sequencing and long-term outcomes data from > 900 patients with early-stage NSCLC treated prospectively in adjuvant landmark clinical trials. We used a targeted gene panel to assess the prognostic and predictive effect of mutations in individual genes, DNA repair pathways, and tumor mutation burden (TMB). Methods A total of 908 unmatched, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, resected lung cancer tumor specimens were sequenced using a targeted panel of 1,538 genes. Stringent filtering criteria were applied to exclude germline variants and artifacts related to formalin fixation. Disease-free survival, overall survival, and lung cancer—specific survival (LCSS) were assessed in Cox models stratified by trial and adjusted for treatment, age, sex, performance score, histology, type of surgery, and stage. Results Nonsynonymous mutations were identified in 1,515 genes in 908 tumor samples. High nonsynonymous TMB (> 8 mutations/Mb) was prognostic for favorable outcomes (ie, overall survival, disease-free survival, and LCSS) in patients with resected NSCLC. LCSS benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy was more pronounced in patients with low nonsynonymous TMBs (≤ 4 mutations/Mb). Presence of mutations in DNA repair pathways, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, TP53 alteration subtype, and intratumor heterogeneity was neither prognostic nor predictive. Statistically significant effect of mutations in individual genes was difficult to determine due to high false-discovery rates. Conclusion High nonsynonymous TMB was associated with a better prognosis in patients with resected NSCLC. In addition, the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy on LCSS was more pronounced in patients with low nonsynonymous TMBs. Studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

3546 Background: The insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R) is involved in progression and sensitivity to systemic treatment of breast cancer. Moreover, targeted inhibition of IGF-1R is likely to be beneficial in systemic treatment. However, it is unknown how to select patients for IGF-1R targeted therapy. Therefore, we studied the relation between IGF-1R expression and prognosis in invasive ductal breast carcinomas. Methods: Immunohistochemistry was performed on tumor tissue of a consecutive cohort of 429 female patients treated for operable primary invasive ductal breast carcinoma. TMA sections were stained with antibodies against IGF1-R, insulin receptor (IR), ER, PR, HER-2, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and phosphorylated-Akt (p-Akt). Cytoplasmic and membranous IGF-1R staining were scored separately, as the relevance of IGF-1R cellular localization is yet unknown. Associations between IGF-1R expression with clinical and tumor characteristics were evaluated in a multivariate Cox regression model. To study in more detail the prognostic role of IGF-1R expression in triple negative invasive ductal carcinomas (TN IDCs), 51 TN IDCs from the series described above were combined with 64 TN IDCs from an independent dataset with similar patient and clinico-pathological characteristics. Results: Patients with tumors expressing both ER and cytoplasmic IGF-1R have a longer disease free survival (HR = 0.20; 95% CI 0.07 - 0.63; p-value = 0.006) and breast cancer specific survival (HR = 0.20, 95% CI 0.07 - 0.63, p-value = 0.002), independent of other known prognostic factors. Conversely, in the combined series of 105 TN IDCs, cytoplasmic IGF-1R expression was associated with a shorter disease free survival (HR = 2.29; 95% CI 1.08 - 4.48, p-value = 0.03). In a multivariate model including known prognostic factors, cytoplasmic IGF-1R expression was nearly significantly related to a shorter disease free survival (HR 2.06; 95% CI 0.95 - 4.47; p = 0.07). Conclusions: The favorable versus unfavorable association with prognosis of IGF-1R expression in ER positive versus TN IDCs may provide new opportunities to select patients for IGF-1R targeted therapy. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e12005 Background: [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG–PET) scans are known as an important imaging study with their reflection biological activity in various malignancies. To investigate clinical impact of 18F-FDG–PET in breast cancer, we performed survival analysis with maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax), and compared SUVmax according to breast cancer subtypes. Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 462 patients with breast cancer who underwent primary surgery between April 2004 and December 2008 at single institute. Patients were classified as 4 subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, HER2 and triple negative. The entire patients were randomly assigned as training set (n=220) and validation set (n=242). Results: High SUVmax vs. low SUVmax group was defined with cut-off points of 4 in a training set.At a median follow-up of 6.03 years, the patients with high SUVmax had a shorter disease-free survival in a validation set (p = 0.018, log-rank test). Using multivariate analysis for disease-free survival in the entire patients, high SUVmax was demonstrated as a poor prognostic factor (hazard ratio 2.34, 95% confidence interval 1.18-4.67). In the comparison among subtypes, mean of SUVmax was higher in triple negative type and HER2 type. Also, high SUVmax was significantly associated with larger tumor size, positive node, high Ki67 (≥14%), ER negative, and high histologic grade, and HER2 positive. Conclusions: In breast cancer, the patients with higher SUVmax showed a shorter disease-free survival. Higher SUVmax found in HER-2 and triple negative type suggests that 18F-FDG PET could reflect molecular signature.
