ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Immunotherapy and targeted therapy have extended life expectancy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, shifting it into a chronic condition with comorbidities, including osteoporosis. This study aims to evaluate the prevalence and incidence of osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OPVF) during NSCLC follow-up, identify risk factors of OPVF, and determine the impact on overall survival (OS). METHODS: We performed a longitudinal single-center retrospective cohort study involving patients with histologically proven NSCLC of any stage. Chest-abdomen-pelvis computed tomography (CAP CT) at diagnosis and during follow-up were double-blind reviewed to determine OPVF site, count, type, time to incident OPVF, and trabecular volumetric bone density (TVBD). An institutional expert committee adjudicated discrepancies. Binary logistic regression was used to predict the occurrence of incident OPVF. OS was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: We included 289 patients with a median follow-up of 29.7 months. OPVF prevalence was 10.7% at inclusion and 23.2% at the end of follow-up. Cumulative incidence was 12.5%, with an incidence rate of 4 per 100 patient-years. Median time to incident OPVF was 13 months (IQR: 6.7-21.2). Seven of the 36 patients with incident OPVF received denosumab or bisphosphonates. In multivariable analysis, independent risk factors for incident OPVF were BMI < 19 kg/m2 (OR: 5.62, 95%CI 1.84-17.20, p = 0.002), lower TVBD (OR: 0.982 per HU, 95%CI 0.97-0.99, p = 0.001) and corticosteroid use (OR: 4.77, 95%CI: 1.76-12.89, p = 0.001). OPVF was not significantly associated with OS. CONCLUSIONS: Osteoporosis should be screened for in NSCLC patients. Thoracic oncologists must broaden the use of steroid-induced osteoporosis recommendations.

ABSTRACT

A meta-analysis of the Chinese studies in April 2020, including 3600 patients with cancer and COVID-19, first reported an increase of the COVID-19 risk and the case-fatality in these patients. Then, North-American and European series confirmed the increased COVID-19 risk for patients with cancer, as the increased risk of severe COVID-19 and death, when compared with general population, adjusting for age. Patients with lung cancer have the highest risk of severe respiratory forms, and the highest risk of SARS-CoV2-induced death (25 to 30%), after patients with hematological cancers. Metastatic patients, with poor PS, and those having received a cytotoxic chemotherapy within the weeks preceding SARSCoV2 infection, are those with the highest risk of death. Conversely, being treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors would not favor the cytokine storm, which makes the severity of COVID-19. SARS-CoV2 pandemic, beyond having needed the generalization of drastic social distancing measures in hospitals, also needed organizational changes, to allow healthcare continuity for cancer patients. Adaptation of therapeutic protocols was needed, with increased intervals between cycles, the choice of less toxic protocols, the systematic use of hematological growth factors, and teleconsultations follow-up. Lastly, mRNA-based SARS-CoV2 vaccines are efficient in patients with thoracic cancer, provided the interval of 21/28 days between the two injections is maintained, since protective immunization seems delayed, especially after cytotoxic chemotherapy. Only 13% of patients with very low protective antibodies titers would need a third booster injection, with a clear rise in protective antibodies titers induced by such a third injection.© 2021 SPLF.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The successive occurrence of pericardial tamponade and myocarditis during a Churg-Strauss syndrome is exceptionally described. We report a patient in whom pericardial tamponade and myocarditis were the presenting manifestation of a Churg-Strauss syndrome. CASE REPORT: A 58-year-old woman was admitted because of alteration of the clinical status with eosinophilia. One month ago, she was hospitalized for a pericardial tamponade treated by pericardial drainage. Acute myocarditis was diagnosed on chest pain during the second hospitalization. The etiologic inquiry ended in the diagnosis of Churg-Strauss complicated with a double cardiac involvement. A good response of clinical and biological anomalies was obtained after corticosteroid and immunosuppressive treatment. CONCLUSION: Isolated or multiple involvements of cardiac tunics should lead to make diagnosis of systemic vasculitis. A complete initial assessment and a close observation of the patients followed for Churg-Strauss syndrome is imperative to detect a cardiac achievement and set up an early treatment.
