Abstract 549P
Background
Interstitial pneumonia (IP) or interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) is a risk factor for drug-induced interstitial lung disease (D-ILD) in immunotherapy. We usually evaluate interstitial pneumonia by CT findings without histopathological findings. We aimed to evaluate whether histopathological findings of the background lung in surgical specimens is correlated with development of D-ILD by immunotherapy in patients with postoperative recurrence.
Methods
Patients who were treated with immunotherapy or immunochemotherapy for first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer for postoperative recurrence from April 2017 to February 2023 were included. We retrospectively compared between characteristics of patients with and without D-ILD, including CT findings and histopathological findings of the background lung in surgical specimens.
Results
Among 32 included patients, we evaluated 27 patients whose surgical specimens were available. The median age was 72 years old, and 20 patients (74.1%) were male. Twelve patients (44.4%) had ILA on CT, and five patients (18.5%) had IP with usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern (two patients with UIP, one patient with probable UIP, and two patients with indeterminate for UIP) on pathology. Five patients (18.5%) developed D-ILD, including two patients with CTCAE grade 1, two patients with grade 2, and one patient with grade 5. Patients with D-ILD were significantly more likely to have ILA on CT than those without D-ILD (5/5[100%] vs. 7/22[31.8%], p<0.01). Although there was no significant difference, two of the patients with D-ILD had UIP pattern on pathology as compared with three of those without D-ILD (2/5[40%] vs. 3/22[13.6%] p=0.22). Four patients had both ILA on CT and UIP pattern on pathology, and two (50%) of these cases developed D-ILD.
Conclusions
In addition to chest CT findings, histopathological findings of the background lung in surgical specimens may be useful as predictors of D-ILD in immunotherapy.
