Introduction

Any carcinoma of the lung, except small cell carcinoma. Often grouped together, because collectively they behave & are treated differently than small cell carcinoma.

Staging

Complications

Differential diagnosis

Management

Stages 1, 2 & some 3a

* cispatin-based chemotherapy, 4-6 cycles without radiation for stage 2 & 3 tumors[10]

* adjuvant platinum-based doublet chemotherapy 4 cycles after surgical resection improves 5 year survival for stage II NSCLC 51% vs 43% for surgery alone[45]

* 1st line nivolumab + ipilimumab for patients with high tumor mutational burden, irrespective of PD-L1 expression[62]

* 1st line pembrolizumab (Keytruda) effective even with minimal PD-L1 expression[64]

postoperative radiation therapy for resected localized lung cancer with positive surgical margins[10]

radiation does not benefit patients with negative surgical margins[10]

proton therapy as effective as conventional radiotherapy but no less toxic[34]

early NSCLC located too close to vital organs for conventional treatment may be amenable to proton beam therapy[46]

Stage 3a, Stage 3b

Stage 3a & some T3 tumors

Stage 3a, Stage 3b, & clinically evident N2 (with tolerable radiation port)

Stage 3b with carinal invasion (T4), but without N2 involvement

Stage 3 & more advanced Stage 3b

Metastatic disease (including malignant pleural effusion)

brain metastasis

radiation therapy relieves pain from metastatic disease[10]

Chemotherapy for non small-cell lung cancer[2]

Avoid: epoetin-alpha

Do NOT treat patients with poor performance status with chemotherapy, regardless of age[10]

Treat patients with poor performance status & advanced NSCLC without a driver mutation with supportive care

Radiation therapy

Endobronchial therapy[10]

Prognosis

  • 5-year survival by stage
    • operable
      • stage 1A: 77-92%
      • stage 1B: 68%
      • stage 2A: 60%
      • stage 2B: 53%
      • stage 3A: 36% --------------------------------
    • inoperable
      • stage 3B: 26%
      • stage 3C: 13%
      • stage 4: < 10%[62]
  • mean survival: 10-12 months for patients for non-resectable disease depending on chemotherapy[9]
