Association of Bone and Metabolic Parameters With Overall Survival in Patients With Bone Metastases From Adenocarcinoma Lung Cancer (POUMOS)

Mortality due to non small cell lung cancers is the first cause of cancer death in men around the world. Lung adenocarcinoma regularly induces bone metastases responsible for high morbidity and impaired life quality. Overall survival of these patients is poor. Thus the investigators aimed to identify if some bone and metabolic parameters were associated with overall survival.

Patients and Methods POUMOS is a prospective cohort of patients suffering from adenocarcinoma lung cancers with a first bone metastasis (stage IV). All patients have a bone biopsy with molecular status characterization of the tumor for EGFR, KRAS, BRAF and ALK. Bone metastasis localizations are obtained by bone scintigraphy or FDG-PET/CT. Whole body composition is obtained by DEXA scan (Hologic®). The investigators assessed also fasting blood levels of bone and metabolic biomarkers.

Survival analyses will be performed using a proportional hazard regression model.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • adults over 18 years
  • both gender
  • covered by the French National Insurance
  • first bone metastases of adenocarcinoma lung cancer (synchronous or metachrone)

Exclusion criteria

  • adenocarcinoma previously treated by systemic oncologic treatment (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy)

Treatment and study plan

Bone metastases biopsy

Other

The vast majority of bone biopsy are performed under CT-scan. In some rare cases, the histology will be performed during surgery (either biopsy of the bone metastasis or surgical piece when treating a fracture).

Primary outcomes

  1. serum DKK1

    Time frame: day 0

    Biomarkers are assessed at baseline.

Secondary outcomes

  1. serum HbA1C

    Time frame: day 0

    Biomarkers are assessed at baseline

  2. urinary CTX

    Time frame: day 0

    Biomarkers are assessed at baseline

  3. hip bone mass (g/cm²)

    Time frame: day 0

    Whole body densitometry is performed at baseline

  4. mutational profile of the bone metastases

    Time frame: day 0

    Molecular characterization of the bone metastases by PCR (EGFR, KRAS, BRAF) and FISH (ALK)
