3 Mitigating Potential Bias Will not be talking about any off label use of drugs Only speak abut drugs approved for use in Manitoba
4 Outline Overview of lung cancer demographics Define lung cancer subtypes Clinical level Molecular Level

8 Risk Factors Tobacco smoke Environmental radiation Air pollution Chronic lung diseases Chronic infection Asbestos
9 Major Subtypes of Lung Cancer 1. Non-small cell lung cancer (85%) Adenocarcinoma (50%) Squamous cell (20%) Large cell (<10%) Undefined (20-30%) 2. Small cell carcinoma (13-15%) 3. Mesothelioma (<1%)
10 Adenocarcinoma Large cell Squamous cell Glandular architecture Neuroendocrine features Keratinization Non-small cell lung cancer
11 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Arise from epithelial cells in the lung and airways May occur in non-smokers (mainly adenocarcinoma) Can be cured with surgery or radiation for early stages of disease Less sensitive to radiation and chemotherapy than SCLC (30-40% response rates to chemo)
12 NSCLC Staging Stage I Stage II Stage III
13 Stage IV NSCLC
14 Treatment algorithm (2004)
15 NSCLC 5-year survival by Stage MST without treatment for Stage IV disease is 4-6 months Colon Cancer Breast Cancer American Cancer Society

25 Treatment algorithm (2013)
26 Improved therapy has led to survival gains for Stage IV NSCLC Third line therapy (2000+) Second line chemotherapy or targeted therapy (2000+) Standard First platinum-based line targeted chemotherapy (1990 s) (2009+) Best Supportive Care (pre-1990 s) Quality of Life Median Survival (months)
27 The personalization of cancer care Adenocarcinoma Large cell Squamous cell
28 The diagnosis of cancer is becoming more complex Re-biopsy Combination therapies
29 Next-generation technologies
30 Small cell lung cancer
31 Small Cell Lung Cancer Arises from neuro-endocrine cells Most associated with smoking Most aggressive lung cancer variant (MST without treatment 4-6 weeks) Most responsive to chemotherapy (70%) Treat patients with poor performance (MST with treatment 4-6 months) Almost all patients will relapse within weeks to months Associated with paraneoplastic syndromes SIADH Cushing s Eaton-Lambert Cerebellar degeneration Cachexia
32 Staging and Survival Stage I Stage II Stage III Stage IV Limited Stage Extensive Stage 5-year relative survival
33 Therapeutic course Initial Treatment: 4 cycle cis/etop May go to 6 cycles if Started at sub-therapeutic doses Good response but still some residual disease after 4 cycles Tolerating well Disease progression: Within 3 months will not respond to any other chemotherapy Within 3-6 months may respond to second line agents (<20% RR) > 6 months ay respond to initial platinum doublet (40% RR)
34 mesothelioma
35 Mesothelioma Arises from the mesothelial lining of the pleura Most commonly associated with asbestos exposure (often appears 20+ years after exposure) Patients can often live several years after diagnosis Treatment: Surgery restricted to very small disease Radiation mainly to palliate symptoms Chemotherapy only treatment that prolongs survival First line therapy cisplatinum and pemetrexed Second line gemcitabine Multi-modality therapy currently being studied
36 Summary Lung caner in women and non-smokers is rising Treatment of NSCLC is more complex than ever Personalized therapy depends on histology and genotype of lung tumours Outcomes dependent on type of lung cancer
