PPIO-006 Primary Tumor Resection for IVa NSCLC

The goal of this mutli-center observational study is toinvestigate the impact of primary tumor resection (PTR) on the long-term survival of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and dry pleural dissemination (DPD). The main question it aims to answer is: whether primary tumor resection improve long-term survival of NSCLC patients with dry pleural dissemination.

About this study

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with dry pleural dissemination have poor survival rates and are generally contraindicated for surgery. Previous single-center retrospective studies have suggested that these patients may benefit from primary tumor resection (PTR). However, the evidence supporting PTR is still limited, especially in the era of targeted therapy. This study aimed to investigate the impact of PTR on the long-term survival of patients with NSCLC and DPD.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

Inclusion criteria

(1) pathologically confirmed primary NSCLC with malignant pleural dissemination, (2) no preoperative treatment, (3) age 80 years or younger, (4) clinicopathologic data and follow-up results were complete.

Exclusion criteria

(1) pleural effusion, contralateral lung metastasis or distant metastasis revealed preoperatively, and (2) with a history of other malignant disease.

Treatment and study plan

Primary tumor resection or not

Procedure

For patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and dry pleural dissemination, surgical decisions to perform exploratory thoracotomy only or primary tumor resection with wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy were based on surgeon experience and patient preference.

Primary outcomes

  1. Disease-specific survival (DSS)

    Time frame: Up to 8 years

    The duration from the day of surgery to the the last follow-up visit or to death specifically caused by NSCLC.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Time frame: Up to 8 years

    The duration of survival with no evidence of progression of the disease.
