Herein, we report the case of a 67-year-old man without immunodeficiency who developed right axillary lymphadenitis caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare and showed a small nodular shadow in the left pulmonary apex. Biopsy of the right axillary lymph node revealed several epithelioid granulomas, and the culture of the lymph node aspirate yielded Mycobacterium intracellulare. The lymph node lesion and left lung apex shadow resolved spontaneously after careful outpatient monitoring. This case suggests that axillary lymphadenitis could be caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare in an immunocompetent patient. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ItanoJunko en-aut-sei=Itano en-aut-mei=Junko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=SenooSatoru en-aut-sei=Senoo en-aut-mei=Satoru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OdaNaohiro en-aut-sei=Oda en-aut-mei=Naohiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=NishiiKazuya en-aut-sei=Nishii en-aut-mei=Kazuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TaniguchiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Medical Technology, Okayama University Graduate School of Health Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=Axillary lymphadenitis kn-keyword=Axillary lymphadenitis en-keyword=Mycobacterium avium complex infection kn-keyword=Mycobacterium avium complex infection en-keyword=Mycobacterium intracellulare kn-keyword=Mycobacterium intracellulare END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=74 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=80 end-page=84 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201110 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=A phase II study of amrubicin and topotecan combination therapy in patients with relapsed or extensive-disease small-cell lung cancer: Okayama Lung Cancer Study Group Trial 0401 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Backgrounds: Chemotherapy is a mainstay in the treatment of extensive-disease small-cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC), although the survival benefit remains modest. We conducted a phase II trial of amrubicin (a topoisomerase II inhibitor) and topotecan (a topoisomerase I inhibitor) in chemotherapy-naïve and relapsed SCLC patients. Methods: Amrubicin (35 mg/m(2)) and topotecan (0.75 mg/m(2)) were administered on days 3-5 and 1-5, respectively. The objective response rate (ORR) was set as the primary endpoint, which was assessed separately in chemotherapy-naïve and relapsed cases. Results: Fifty-nine patients were enrolled (chemotherapy-naïve 31, relapsed 28). The ORRs were 74% and 43% in the chemotherapy-naïve and relapsed cases, respectively. Survival data were also promising, with a median progression-free survival time and median survival time of 5.3 and 14.9 months and 4.7 and 10.2 months in the chemotherapy-naïve and relapsed cases, respectively. Even refractory-relapsed cases responded to the treatment favorably (27% ORR). The primary toxicity was myelosuppression with grades 3 or 4 neutropenia in 97% of the patients, which led to grades 3 or 4 febrile neutropenia in 41% of the patients and two toxic deaths. Conclusion: This phase II study showed the favorable efficacy and moderate safety profiles of a topotecan and amrubicin two-drug combination especially in relapsed patients with ED-SCLC. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NogamiNaoyuki en-aut-sei=Nogami en-aut-mei=Naoyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HottaKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Hotta en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuyamaShoichi en-aut-sei=Kuyama en-aut-mei=Shoichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=ChikamoriKenichi en-aut-sei=Chikamori en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShibayamaTakuo en-aut-sei=Shibayama en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishinoDaizo en-aut-sei=Kishino en-aut-mei=Daizo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=HosokawaShinobu en-aut-sei=Hosokawa en-aut-mei=Shinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TamaokiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Tamaoki en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaritaShingo en-aut-sei=Harita en-aut-mei=Shingo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=TabataMasahiro en-aut-sei=Tabata en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=UeokaHiroshi en-aut-sei=Ueoka en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShinkaiTetsu en-aut-sei=Shinkai en-aut-mei=Tetsu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=15 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Shikoku Cancer Center affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Chugoku Central Hospital affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, NHO Minami-Okayama Medical Center affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama Red Cross Hospital affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama Institute of Health and Prevention affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Chugoku Central Hospital affil-num=12 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=13 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=14 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Shikoku Cancer Center affil-num=15 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital en-keyword=Lung cancer kn-keyword=Lung cancer en-keyword=Topotecan kn-keyword=Topotecan en-keyword=Amrubicin kn-keyword=Amrubicin en-keyword=Chemo-naive kn-keyword=Chemo-naive en-keyword=Sensitive relapse kn-keyword=Sensitive relapse en-keyword=Refractory relapse kn-keyword=Refractory relapse END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=12 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=589 end-page=597 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2013 dt-pub=201305 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Afatinib Prolongs Survival Compared with Gefitinib in an Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Driven Lung Cancer Model en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=An irreversible ErbB family blocker is expected to inhibit tumors with activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations more strongly than reversible EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors and to overcome acquired resistance to the T790M secondary mutation. Eleven-week-old transgenic mice with Egfr exon 19 deletion mutation were treated with afatinib, gefitinib, or vehicle for 4 weeks. All mice were sacrificed at 15 weeks of age, and the number of superficial left lung tumors with a long axis exceeding 1 mm was counted. The afatinib-treated group had significantly fewer tumors than the vehicle group (P < 0.01) and tended to have fewer tumors than the gefitinib-treated group (P = 0.06). Pathologically, gefitinib-treated mice had clearer, more nodular tumors than afatinib-treated mice. Immunoblotting showed that afatinib suppressed not only pEGFR but also pHER2, and induced apoptosis for longer periods than gefitinib. Subsequently, when each drug was administered 5 days per week until death, afatinib significantly enhanced mouse survival compared with gefitinib (median survival time: 456 days vs. 376.5 days; log-rank test, P < 0.01). Finally, the combination of afatinib with bevacizumab was found to be superior to either drug alone in exon 19 deletion/T790M and L858R/T790M xenograft tumors. Overall, afatinib was more potent than gefitinib in tumors harboring an exon 19 deletion mutation, and the combination of afatinib with bevacizumab efficiently suppressed tumors harboring the T790M secondary mutation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NinomiyaTakashi en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=MurakamiToshi en-aut-sei=Murakami en-aut-mei=Toshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HondaYoshihiro en-aut-sei=Honda en-aut-mei=Yoshihiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuboToshio en-aut-sei=Kubo en-aut-mei=Toshio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MinamiDaisuke en-aut-sei=Minami en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KudoKenichiro en-aut-sei=Kudo en-aut-mei=Kenichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Hosp, Dept Gen Internal Med 4, Kawasaki Med Sch affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=74 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=371 end-page=379 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=202010 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase Fusion: A Review of Therapeutic Drugs and Treatment Strategies en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The prognosis of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients has improved in recent decades, especially for patients with an oncogenic driver mutation. Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective for patients with the echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4-ALK fusion gene. Several ALK-TKIs have been established: the first-generation ALK-TKI, crizotinib; second-generation ALK-TKIs, alectinib and ceritinib; and third-generation ALK-TKI, lorlatinib. Some ALK-TKIs are effective for tumors that are resistant to other ALK-TKIs; however, as is known in epidermal growth factor receptormutant lung cancer, tumor resistance is inevitable. ALK-positive NSCLCs acquire resistance via various mechanisms, making it a heterogeneous disease. Therefore, it is necessary to develop next-generation treatment strategies, such as the use of next-generation ALK-TKIs for secondary mutations, or combination therapies with ALK-TKIs and other TKIs. In this review, we summarize the development and use of ALK-TKIs, prior pivotal clinical trials, and resistance mechanisms. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MakimotoGo en-aut-sei=Makimoto en-aut-mei=Go kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, National Hospital Organization Iwakuni Clinical Center kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=lung cancer kn-keyword=lung cancer en-keyword=anaplastic lymphoma kinase kn-keyword=anaplastic lymphoma kinase en-keyword=tyrosine kinase inhibitors kn-keyword=tyrosine kinase inhibitors en-keyword=resistance mechanism kn-keyword=resistance mechanism END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=47 cd-vols= no-issue=4 article-no= start-page=233 end-page=241 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1993 dt-pub=199308 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Antitumor activity of platinum analogs against human lung cancer cell lines and tumor specimens. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

Antitumor activities of five platinum analogs, including cisplatin, carboplatin, 254-S, DWA2114R, and NK121, were compared using five human lung cancer cell lines and 19 tumor specimens obtained from lung cancer patients. The antitumor activity was evaluated by determining the ratio of the maximum tolerated dose of each drug to the 70% tumor growth inhibitory concentration in a colony assay. Cisplatin was the most potent agent, followed by 254-S and carboplatin. DWA2114R and NK121 were less potent than cisplatin and 254-S. Cross-resistance to adriamycin was also investigated using an adriamycin-resistant small cell lung cancer subline, SBC -3/ADM30. SBC-3/ADM30 was 1.7- to 4.0-fold more resistant to cisplatin, carboplatin, NK121, and DWA2114R, than was the parent line, SBC-3, and the subline was 2.0-fold more sensitive to 254-S. Using SBC-3, in vitro combination effects of etoposide and cisplatin, carboplatin, or 254-S were evaluated by the median-effect principle. Synergism was noted when cisplatin and etoposide were combined at a fixed molar ratio of 1:1. Combination of carboplatin and etoposide showed an additive effect. The combination of 254-S and etoposide was antagonistic at low concentrations, but was markedly synergistic at higher concentrations. These data suggested the efficacy of 254-S in the treatment of lung cancer.

Twenty-eight consecutive patients seen at a single institute were reviewed retrospectively. Sixteen patients were treated with TXT 80mg/m2, followed by CDDP 75mg/m2. The overall response rate to CDDP/TXT treatment was 62.5%, with a median survival time (MST) of 22.7 months. Common adverse reactions were myelosuppression and hyponatremia. The MST of all 28 patients with CUP was 8.3 months, and the 1-year overall survival rate was 45.6%. Univariate analysis identified 5 prognostic factors:performance status, liver involvement, bone involvement, pleural involvement, and lymph node involvement. In conclusion, CDDP/TXT chemotherapy is effective with tolerable toxicity in patients with CUP. Japanese patients with CUP might be chemosensitive and may survive longer. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NishimoriHisakazu en-aut-sei=Nishimori en-aut-mei=Hisakazu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei=

In an attempt to predict the clinical activity of newly developed anthracycline analogues, ME2303, KRN8602, and SM5887 in the treatment of lung cancer, we compared antitumor activity of these drugs with that of adriamycin, using six human lung cancer cell lines and two drug-resistant human lung cancer sublines. Taking the pharmacokinetic data into consideration, we evaluated the relative antitumor activity: the ratio of area under the concentration-time curve of each drug to the 50% inhibitory concentration of the drug. Regarding this ratio, ME2303 was more potent than adriamycin, SM5887, and KRN8602. Cross-resistance of the new analogues to adriamycin was investigated using an adriamycin-resistant small cell lung cancer subline, SBC-3/ADM100 and an etoposide-resistant subline, SBC-3/ETP. SBC-3/ADM100 being 106-fold more resistant to adriamycin than the parent SBC-3 showed less resistance to the analogues: 1.80-fold to KRN8602, 3.80-fold to SM5887, and 8.60-fold to ME2303. SBC-3/ETP which was 52.1-fold more resistant to etoposide and 39.5-fold more resistant to adriamycin were also less resistant to the new analogues: 3.27-fold to KRN8602, 9.07-fold to SM5887, and 17.3-fold to ME2303. In conclusion, ME2303 was found to be the most potent agent among drugs tested for the treatment of lung cancer, and KRN8602 can be expected to be beneficial for the treatment of drug-resistant small cell lung cancer.

When the development of chemotherapeutic agents reaches the clinical trial stage, it is necessary to perform drug sensitivity tests quickly in order to select the most promising agents for the treatment of cancer. In order to assess the possibility of using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay as a substitute for the human tumor clonogenic assay (HTCA), we evaluated the correlation between the results obtained by these 2 assays in 5 human lung cancer cell lines. The correlation coefficient between the results of the HTCA and the MTT assay was 0.673, indicating a relatively good correlation. The correlation was most prominent in platinum analogues (r = 0.939) and good in anthracyclines/anthracenedione (r = 0.611). However, no significant correlation was observed in vinca alkaloids, etoposide, irinotecan, SN-38 (an active metabolite of irinotecan), and rhizoxin. The results of the MTT assay showed a high degree of correlation with those of the HTCA in predicting the sensitivity of cancer cell lines to platinum analogues, and anthracyclines/anthracenedione. These results suggest that the MTT assay may be more convenient and quickly performed than the HTCA and can replace HTCA in evaluating the effects of anticancer agents, especially the platinum analogues and anthracyclines/anthracenedione.

A pilot study was conducted to assess the efficacy and feasibility of daily low-dose cisplatin with concurrent thoracic irradiation for clinically unresectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with inoperable NSCLC who had poor risk factors such as advanced age, poor performance status, poor lung function, or concomitant active malignancy were entered into the study. Low-dose cisplatin (6 mg/m2) was administered daily before concurrent thoracic irradiation (2 Gy/day; total dose of 60 Gy) was given. Twenty-five patients were registered. The majority of the patients had either stage IIIA (24.0%) or stage IIIB (60.0%) disease. Fifteen patients (60.0%) completed the planned treatment. Both chemotherapy and radiotherapy were stopped in 3 patients (12.0%) due to poor response, and 7 patients (28.0%) partly received radiotherapy alone as a result of their toxicity response. The proportion of total administered dose to planned dose was 90.9% for chemotherapy and 99.3% for radiotherapy, which were comparable to those in previous studies for LA-NSCLC patients without poor risk factors. Grade 3 leukopenia and neutropenia developed in 14 patients (56.0%) and 10 patients (40.0%), respectively, but grade 4 toxicity was not encountered. Grade 3 pneumonitis and esophagitis were observed in 4 patients (16.0%) and 2 patients (8.0%), respectively. The overall response rate was 60.0%. The median survival time was 22 months, and the 2-year survival rate was 50.3%. Daily low-dose cisplatin and concurrent thoracic irradiation were well tolerated even by poor-risk patients with NSCLC, and showed a therapeutic efficacy similar to that for good-risk patients.

The current study assessed the feasibility of testing exhaled breath condensate (EBC) for EGFR mutations by droplet digital PCR (ddPCR). Samples were collected from 12 patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations that were admitted to Okayama University Hospital between June 1, 2014 and December 31, 2017. A total of 21 EBC samples were collected using the RTube™ method and EGFR mutations (L858R, exon 19 deletions or T790M) were assessed through ddPCR analysis (EBC‑ddPCR). A total of 3 healthy volunteer samples were also tested to determine a threshold value for each mutation. Various patient characteristics were determined, including sex (3 males and 9 females), age (range 54‑81 years; median, 66 years), smoking history (10 had never smoked; 2 were former smokers), histology (12 patients exhibited adenocarcinoma), clinical stage (9 patients were stage IV; 3 exhibited post‑operative recurrence) and EGFR mutation type (4 had L858R; 8 had exon 19 deletions; 8 had T790M). EBC‑ddPCR demonstrated positive droplets in 8 of the 12 patients. The sensitivity and specificity of each mutation was as follows: 27.3 and 80.0% for EGFR L858R, 30.0 and 90.9% for EGFR Ex19del, and 22.2 and 100% for EGFR T790M. EBC‑ddPCR analysis of EGFR mutations exhibited modest sensitivity and acceptable specificity. EBC‑ddPCR is a minimally invasive and replicable procedure and may be a complementary method for EGFR testing in patients where blood or tissue sampling proves difficult. en-copyright= kn-copyright=

disease progression after initial decline in forced vital capacity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients treated with pirfenidone en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Background
Pirfenidone suppresses the decline of forced vital capacity (FVC) in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, IPF progresses in some patients despite treatment. We analyzed patients with meaningful FVC declines during pirfenidone treatment and explored the factors predictive of disease progression after FVC decline.
Methods
This study was a retrospective, multicenter, observational study conducted by the Okayama Respiratory Disease Study Group. We defined initial decline in %FVC as 5% or greater per 6-month period during pirfenidone treatment. IPF patients who were treated with pirfenidone and experienced an initial decline from December 2008 to September 2017 were enrolled.
Results
We analyzed 21 patients with IPF. After the initial decline, 4 (19.0%) patients showed improvement in disease, 11 (52.4%) showed stable disease, and 6 (28.6%) showed progressive disease. There was no significant correlation between %FVC reduction on initial decline and subsequent %FVC change (p = 0.475). Deterioration of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings on initial decline was observed significantly more often in the progressive versus improved/stable disease groups (100% vs 20.0%, p = 0.009).
Conclusions
We revealed that deterioration of HRCT findings may predict disease progression after the initial decline in %FVC in IPF patients treated with pirfenidone. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=HigoHisao en-aut-sei=Higo en-aut-mei=Hisao kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TaniguchiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SenooSatoru en-aut-sei=Senoo en-aut-mei=Satoru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=ItanoJunko en-aut-sei=Itano en-aut-mei=Junko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=WatanabeHiromi en-aut-sei=Watanabe en-aut-mei=Hiromi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=OdaNaohiro en-aut-sei=Oda en-aut-mei=Naohiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KayataniHiroe en-aut-sei=Kayatani en-aut-mei=Hiroe kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchikawaHirohisa en-aut-sei=Ichikawa en-aut-mei=Hirohisa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShibayamaTakuo en-aut-sei=Shibayama en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KajimotoKazuhiro en-aut-sei=Kajimoto en-aut-mei=Kazuhiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoYasushi en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Yasushi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanehiroArihiko en-aut-sei=Kanehiro en-aut-mei=Arihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=15 ORCID= en-aut-name= OKAYAMA respiratory disease study group (ORDSG) en-aut-sei= OKAYAMA respiratory disease study group (ORDSG) en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=16 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=National Hospital Organization Okayama Medical Center kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=KKR Takamatsu Hospita kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=National Hospital Organization Okayama Medical Center kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Kobe Red Cross Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=National Hospital Organization Minami-Okayama Medical Center kn-affil= affil-num=13 en-affil=Okayama Rosai Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=14 en-affil=Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=15 en-affil=Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=16 en-affil= kn-affil= en-keyword=Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis kn-keyword=Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis en-keyword=High-resolution computed tomography kn-keyword=High-resolution computed tomography en-keyword=Pirfenidone kn-keyword=Pirfenidone en-keyword=Forced vital capacity kn-keyword=Forced vital capacity END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=19 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=1144 end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2019 dt-pub=201911 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Dose-volume parameters predict radiation pneumonitis after induction chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery for non-small cell lung cancer: a retrospective analysis en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=BACKGROUND:
The relationship between lung dose-volume histogram (DVH) parameters and radiation pneumonitis (RP) associated with induction concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by surgery in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is unclear, particularly when concerning irradiation of the whole lung prior to resection. We performed this study to identify factors associated with grade ≥ 2 RP in such patients.
METHODS:
Patients who received induction CCRT (chemotherapy: cisplatin and docetaxel; radiotherapy: 46 Gy/23 fractions) between May 2003 and May 2017 were reviewed. The mean lung dose (MLD) and the percentage of the lung volume that received ≥5 Gy (V5) and ≥ 20 Gy (V20) were calculated. Factors associated with the development of grade ≥ 2 RP were analyzed.
RESULTS:
One hundred and eight patients were included in this study, 34 (31.5%) of whom experienced grade ≥ 2 RP. A V20 ≥ 21%, an MLD ≥10 Gy, and a lower lobe tumor location were significant predictors of grade ≥ 2 RP on univariate analysis (p = 0.007, 0.002, and 0.004, respectively). Moreover, an MLD ≥10 Gy and lower lobe location were significant predictors of grade ≥ 2 RP on multivariate analysis (p = 0.026 and 0.0043, respectively). The cumulative incidence rates of grade ≥ 2 RP at 6 months were 15.7 and 45.6% in patients with MLDs < 10 Gy and ≥ 10 Gy, respectively, and were 23.5 and 55.6% in patients with upper/middle lobe- vs. lower lobe-located tumors, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS:
MLD and lower lobe location were predictors of grade ≥ 2 RP in patients who received induction CCRT. It is necessary to reduce the MLD to the greatest extent possible to prevent the occurrence of this adverse event. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KatsuiKuniaki en-aut-sei=Katsui

model en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Objective: STAT3 plays a vital role in inducing and maintaining a pro-carcinogenic inflammatory microenvironment and is reported to be a critical mediator of the oncogenic effects of EGFR mutations. STAT3 activation is mediated through JAK family kinases. We investigated the effect of the JAK1/2 inhibitor AZD1480 on lung tumors induced by an activating EGFR mutation. Materials and methods: Three EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor-resistant cell lines (RPC-9, PC-9/Van-R and PC-9/ER3) established from PC-9 harboring an EGFR exon19 deletion mutation were used. Growth inhibition was measured using an MIT assay. Effects of AZD1480 were also evaluated in the xenograft model and in the EGFR transgenic mice model. Protein expressions were assessed by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. Group differences were compared using Student's t-test. To evaluate the efficacy of AZD1480 on survival, AZD1480 or vehicle was administered orally from 7 weeks of age of the transgenic mice. Overall survival curves were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: The sensitivities of resistant and parent cells to AZD1480 were similar in vitro. AZD1480 (30 or 50 mg/kg/day, per os) reduced angiogenesis and revealed significant tumor regression in a mouse xenograft model: Subsequently, the transgenic mice were treated with AZD1480 (30 mg/kg/day) or vehicle alone. The numbers of lung tumors (long axis exceeding 1 mm) in the AZD1480-treated group and control group were 0.37 +/- 0.18 and 2.25 +/- 0.53 (p <0.001), respectively. AZD1480 treatment suppressed pSTAT3, pJAK1, pJAK2 and angiogenesis. The median survival time in the AZD1480-treated group (217 days) was significantly greater than that in the control group (106 days) (log-rank test, p <0.0001). Conclusion: AZD1480 may be effective against lung tumors driven by an activating EGER mutation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MurakamiToshi en-aut-sei=Murakami en-aut-mei=Toshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaTakashi en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=YasugiMasaaki en-aut-sei=Yasugi en-aut-mei=Masaaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HondaYoshihiro en-aut-sei=Honda en-aut-mei=Yoshihiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuboToshio en-aut-sei=Kubo en-aut-mei=Toshio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=HottaKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Hotta en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Med Univ, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Med Univ, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Allergy & Resp Med en-keyword=Lung cancer kn-keyword=Lung cancer en-keyword=Oncogene addiction kn-keyword=Oncogene addiction en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR en-keyword=JAK2 kn-keyword=JAK2 en-keyword=STAT3 kn-keyword=STAT3 en-keyword=Transgenic mice kn-keyword=Transgenic mice END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=70 cd-vols= no-issue=4 article-no= start-page=243 end-page=253 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2016 dt-pub=201608 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Effect of Vandetanib on Lung Tumorigenesis in Transgenic Mice Carrying an Activating Egfr Gene Mutation en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Vandetanib (ZactimaTM) is a novel, orally available inhibitor of both vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase. In the present study, a line of transgenic mice with a mouse Egfr gene mutation (delE748-A752) corresponding to a human EGFR mutation (delE746-A750) was established. The transgenic mice developed atypical adenomatous hyperplasia to adenocarcinoma of the lung at around 5 weeks of age and died of lung tumors at approximately 17 weeks of age. In the mice treated with vandetanib (6mg/kg/day), these lung tumors disappeared and the phosphorylations of EGFR and VEGFR-2 were reduced in lung tissues to levels comparable to those of non-transgenic control mice. The median overall survival time of the transgenic mice was 28 weeks in the vandetanib-treated group and 17 weeks in the vehicle-treated group. Vandetanib significantly prolonged the survival of the transgenic mice (log-rank test, p＜0.01); resistance to vandetanib occurred at 20 weeks of age and the animals died from their lung tumors at about 28 weeks of age. These data suggest that vandetanib could suppress the progression of tumors harboring an activating EGFR mutation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OsawaMasahiro en-aut-sei=Osawa en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuboToshio en-aut-sei=Kubo en-aut-mei=Toshio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakataSaburo en-aut-sei=Takata en-aut-mei=Saburo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=Takata Minoru en-aut-sei=Takata en-aut-mei=Minoru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of General Internal Medicine 4, Kawasaki Medical School kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Laboratory of DNA Damage Signaling, Department of Late Effects Studies, Radiation Biology Center, Kyoto University kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Haematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= en-keyword=vandetanib kn-keyword=vandetanib en-keyword=VEGFR kn-keyword=VEGFR en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR en-keyword=nonsmall cell lung cancer kn-keyword=nonsmall cell lung cancer en-keyword=transgenic mouse kn-keyword=transgenic mouse END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=46 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=203 end-page=212 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1992 dt-pub=199206 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Establishment and characterization of an etoposide-resistant human small cell lung cancer cell line. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

An etoposide-resistant subline, SBC-3/ETP, from a human small cell lung cancer cell line, SBC-3, was developed by continuous exposure to increasing concentrations of etoposide in culture. The SBC-3/ETP was 52.1-fold more resistant to etoposide than the parent cell line. The SBC-3/ETP was highly cross-resistant to teniposide, adriamycin, vinca alkaloids, 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide, CPT-11 and mitomycin C, and marginally cross-resistant to cisplatin, while the subline showed a collateral sensitivity to bleomycin. Topoisomerase I activity in the SBC-3/ETP was reduced to an extent of one half and topoisomerase II activity to an extent of one eighth in comparison with those of the SBC-3. Intracellular accumulation of [3H]-etoposide in the SBC-3/ETP was significantly lower in comparison to the SBC-3. An overexpression of MDR1 mRNA, and the presence of its product, P-glycoprotein, were detected in the SBC-3/ETP by Northern blotting and flowcytometry using a monoclonal antibody of the protein, MRK16. These results indicate that a decreased activity of topoisomerase II is the major factor for the development of etoposide resistance, and that an overexpression of the MDR1 gene is responsible, in part, for the development of resistance to the drug and some structurally unrelated compounds such as adriamycin and vinca alkaloids.

We established a drug sensitivity panel consisting of 24 human lung cancer cell lines. Using this panel, we evaluated 26 anti-cancer agents: three alkylators, three platinum compounds, four antimetabolites, one topoisomerase I inhibitor, five topoisomerase II inhibitors, seven antimitotic agents and three tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This panel showed the following: a) Drug sensitivity patterns reflected their clinically-established patterns of action. For example, doxorubicin and etoposide were shown to be active against small cell lung cancer cell lines and mitomycin-C and 5-fluorouracil were active against non-small cell lung cancer cell lines, in agreement with clinical data. b) Correlation analysis of the mean graphs derived from the logarithm of IC50 values of the drugs gave insight into the mechanism of each drug's action. Thus, two drug combinations with reverse or no correlation, such as the combination of cisplatin and vinorelbine, might be good candidates for the ideal two drug combination in the treatment of lung cancer, as is being confirmed in clinical trials. c) Using cluster analysis of the cell lines in the panel with their drug sensitivity patterns, we could classify the cell lines into four groups depending on the drug sensitivity similarity. This classification will be useful to elucidate the cellular mechanism of action and drug resistance. Thus, our drug sensitivity panel will be helpful to explore new drugs or to develop a new combination of anti-cancer agents for the treatment of lung cancer.

The SBC-3/ADM100 cells were 106-fold more resistant to the drug than the parent cells in an inhibitory concentration of 50% determined by the MTT assay. The population-doubling time was much longer in SBC-3/ADM100 than in the parent cells. Northern blot hybridization revealed marked overexpression of the MDR1 mRNA in the resistant cells. P-glycoprotein overexpression and a decrease in intracellular accumulation of Adriamycin were demonstrated in SBC-3/ADM100, indicating that outward drug transport was the major mechanism of resistance in this subline. Additionally, a significant elevation of the intracellular glutathione content coupled with the glutathione S-transferase (GST) pi level and a decrease in DNA topoisomerase II (Topo II) activity were noted in this resistant subline. These results indicate that the mechanism of resistance to Adriamycin is multifactorial; involving altered growth characteristics, an enhanced outward transport, enhanced drug detoxification process, and decreased target enzyme activity. The resistant subline will serve as a useful tool in the search for ways to overcome drug resistance. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhnoshiTaisuke en-aut-sei=Ohnoshi en-aut-mei=Taisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TabataMasahiro en-aut-sei=Tabata en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=ShibayamaTakuo en-aut-sei=Shibayama en-aut-mei=Takuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KimuraIkuro en-aut-sei=Kimura en-aut-mei=Ikuro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Second Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Second Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Second Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Second Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Second Department of Medicine, Okayama University Medical School en-keyword=Adriamycin-resistant cell line kn-keyword=Adriamycin-resistant cell line en-keyword=MDR1 mRNA kn-keyword=MDR1 mRNA en-keyword=glutathione kn-keyword=glutathione en-keyword=glutathione S-transferasse π kn-keyword=glutathione S-transferasse π en-keyword=DNA topoisomerase II kn-keyword=DNA topoisomerase II END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=326 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=201 end-page=209 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2014 dt-pub=20140815 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Everolimus prolonged survival in transgenic mice with EGFR-driven lung tumors en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Everolimus is an orally administered mTOR inhibitor. The effect, and mechanism of action, of everolimus on lung cancers with an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation remain unclear. Four gefitinib-sensitive and -resistant cell lines were used in the present work. Growth inhibition was determined using the MTT assay. Transgenic mice carrying the EGFR L858R mutation were treated with everolimus (10 mg/kg/day), or vehicle alone, from 5 to 20 weeks of age, and were then sacrificed. To evaluate the efficacy of everolimus in prolonging survival, everolimus (10 mg/kg/day) or vehicle was administered from 5 weeks of age. The four cell lines were similarly sensitive to everolimus. Expression of phosphorylated (p) mTOR and pS6 were suppressed upon treatment with everolimus in vitro, whereas the pAKT level increased. The numbers of lung tumors with a long axis exceeding 1 mm in the everolimus-treated and control groups were 1.9 +/- 0.9 and 9.4 +/- 3.2 (t-test, p<0.001), respectively. pS6 was suppressed during everolimus treatment. Although apoptosis and autophagy were not induced in everolimus-treated EGFR transgenic mice, angiogenesis was suppressed. The median survival time in the everolimus-treated group (58.0 weeks) was significantly longer than that in the control group (31.2 weeks) (logrank test, p<0.001). These findings suggest that everolimus had an indirect effect on tumor formation by inhibiting angiogenesis and might be effective to treat lung tumors induced by an activating EGFR gene mutation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=YasugiMasayuki en-aut-sei=Yasugi en-aut-mei=Masayuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaradaDaijiro en-aut-sei=Harada en-aut-mei=Daijiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaTakashi en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MurakamiToshi en-aut-sei=Murakami en-aut-mei=Toshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=HondaYoshihiro en-aut-sei=Honda en-aut-mei=Yoshihiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Hosp, Kawasaki Med Sch, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med en-keyword=Non-small cell lung cancer kn-keyword=Non-small cell lung cancer en-keyword=Adenocarcinoma kn-keyword=Adenocarcinoma en-keyword=Everolimus kn-keyword=Everolimus en-keyword=mTOR kn-keyword=mTOR en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=51 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=121 end-page=127 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1997 dt-pub=199706 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Growth inhibitory effects of antifolates against an adriamycin-resistant human small cell lung cancer cell line en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

We have established an Adriamycin (ADM) -resistant small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell line, SBC-3/ADM100, which shows multifactorial mechanisms of resistance to ADM, such as overexpression of P-glycoprotein, an enhanced detoxifying system and a decrease in topoisomerase II activity. In the present study, we confirmed that SBC-3/ADM 100 showed collateral sensitivity to methotrexate and TNP-351, a new antifolate, though this cell line showed a typical multidrug resistance (MDR) pattern. We also demonstrated a faster uptake and higher accumulation (1.3-fold) of TNP-351 in the SBC-3/ADM100 cells than those in the parent SBC-3 cells. These results explain one of the mechanisms for collateral sensitivity in the resistant cells. Furthermore, this cell line was found to have no cross-resistance to edatrexate and minimal cross-resistance to trimetrexate, 254-S (cisplatin analog), 5-fluorouracil and 4-hydroperoxyifosfamide. These drugs will have clinical importance in patients with SCLC who were previously treated with an ADM-containing regimen. Thus, antifolates, especially TNP-351 and edatrexate, can be expected to eradicate residual multidrug resistant SCLC cells selected by ADM.

In an attempt to elucidate the tumor properties relating to responsiveness to chemotherapy, we examined immunohistochemically the expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) tumors. Tumor specimens from 33 patients were obtained at the time of diagnosis and relapse. Four patients expressed P-gp in their initial tumors, and 7 others did in recurrent tumors. The overall response rate to chemotherapy of the initial tumors was 75% for P-gp-positive initial tumors and 86% for P-gp-negative tumors, whereas the disease-free and overall survival times were significantly shorter in the former than the latter. Three patients showed CEA in their initial tumors, and 5 others did in recurrent tumors. The patients with CEA-positive initial tumors tended to relapse earlier than those with CEA-negative tumors. In addition, recurrent tumors expressing CEA were resistant to salvage chemotherapy. A clear correlation between CEA expression by tumors and the CEA level in the serum was observed at diagnosis as well as at relapse. These findings indicate that P-gp and/or CEA expression by a tumor and elevated CEA level in the serum may predict refractoriness of the tumor to chemotherapy.

We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of 435 patients with pleural effusion and investigated their pleural ADA levels as determined by an auto analyzer. ROC analysis was also performed. The study included patients with MPE (n＝188), TPE (n＝124), benign nontuberculous pleural effusion (n＝94), and pleural effusion of unknown etiology (n＝29). The median ADA level in the TPE group was 70.8U/L, which was significantly higher than that in any other groups (p＜0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) in ROC analysis was 0.895. With a cut-off level for ADA of 36U/L, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were 85.5%, 86.5%, 69.7%, and 93.6%, respectively. As many as 9% of patients with lung cancer and 15% of those with mesothelioma were false-positive with this ADA cutoff setting. Although the ADA activity in pleural fluid can help in the diagnosis of TPE, it should be noted that some cases of lung cancer or mesothelioma show high ADA activity in geographical regions with intermediate incidence of TB, in contrast to high prevalence areas. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OgataYoshiko en-aut-sei=Ogata en-aut-mei=Yoshiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=AoeKeisuke en-aut-sei=Aoe en-aut-mei=Keisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirakiAkio en-aut-sei=Hiraki en-aut-mei=Akio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MurakamiKazuo en-aut-sei=Murakami en-aut-mei=Kazuo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishinoDaizo en-aut-sei=Kishino en-aut-mei=Daizo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=ChikamoriKenichi en-aut-sei=Chikamori en-aut-mei=Kenichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaTadashi en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Tadashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=UeokaHiroshi en-aut-sei=Ueoka en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduated School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduated School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, NHO Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduated School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduated School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=pleural effusion kn-keyword=pleural effusion en-keyword=adenosine deaminase kn-keyword=adenosine deaminase en-keyword=tuberculosis kn-keyword=tuberculosis en-keyword=lung cancer kn-keyword=lung cancer en-keyword=mesothelioma kn-keyword=mesothelioma END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=103 cd-vols= no-issue=10 article-no= start-page=1795 end-page=1802 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2012 dt-pub=201210 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=JAK2-related pathway induces acquired erlotinib resistance in lung cancer cells harboring an epidermal growth factor receptor-activating mutation en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as gefitinib and erlotinib, are effective for non-small cell lung cancer with activating EGFR mutations. However, even in patients with an initial dramatic response to such a drug, acquired resistance develops after 612 similar to months. A secondary mutation of T790M in EGFR and amplification of the MET gene account for this resistance; however, the mechanism(s) of approximately 30% of acquired resistance cases remain unknown. We established an erlotinib-resistant lung cancer cell line named PC-9/ER3 that harbors an EGFR mutation after continuously exposing PC-9 cells to erlotinib. PC-9/ER3 cells were 136-fold more resistant to erlotinib than the parental cells. Although the PC-9/ER3 cells did not carry the T790M mutation or MET amplification and had similar levels of phosphorylated (p) STAT3, pJAK2 increased in the resistant cells. It was found in the present study that 312 similar to h of exposure to erlotinib in both cell lines did not affect pJAK2 expression, but did result in increased pSTAT3 expression. pAkt in PC-9/ER3 cells was less suppressed than in PC-9 cells, although pEGFR and pMAPK were markedly suppressed in both cell lines. The combined treatment of erlotinib plus a JAK2 inhibitor (JSI-124) suppressed pAkt in PC-9/ER3 cells. Similarly, the combination of erlotinib plus JSI-124 or siRNA against JAK2 restored sensitivity to erlotinib in PC-9/ER3 cells. The combination of erlotinib plus JSI-124 was also effective for reducing PC-9/ER3 tumors in a murine xenograft model. Our results suggest that the activation of JAK2 partially accounts for acquired erlotinib resistance.(Cancer Sci, doi: 10.1111/j.1349-7006.2012.02363.x, 2012) en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=HaradaDaijiro en-aut-sei=Harada en-aut-mei=Daijiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaTakashi en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=YasugiMasayuki en-aut-sei=Yasugi en-aut-mei=Masayuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuboToshio en-aut-sei=Kubo en-aut-mei=Toshio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakedaHiromasa en-aut-sei=Takeda en-aut-mei=Hiromasa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakataSaburo en-aut-sei=Takata en-aut-mei=Saburo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Med Univ, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=12 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Resp Med END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=10 cd-vols= no-issue=9 article-no= start-page=1720 end-page=1727 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201109 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Liposomal Delivery of MicroRNA-7-Expressing Plasmid Overcomes Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor-Resistance in Lung Cancer Cells en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have been strikingly effective in lung cancers harboring activating EGFR mutations. Unfortunately, the cancer cells eventually acquire resistance to EGFR-TKI. Approximately 50% of the acquired resistance involves a secondary T790M mutation. To overcome the resistance, we focused on EGFR suppression using microRNA-7 (miR-7), targeting multiple sites in the 30-untranslated region of EGFR mRNA. Two EGFR-TKI-sensitive cell lines (PC-9 and H3255) and two EGFR-TKI-resistant cell lines harboring T790M (RPC-9 and H1975) were used. We constructed miR-7-2 containing miR-7-expressing plasmid. After transfection of the miR-7-expressing plasmid, using cationic liposomes, a quantitative PCR and dual luciferase assay were conducted to examine the efficacy. The antiproliferative effect was evaluated using a cell count assay and xenograft model. Protein expression was examined by Western blotting. The miR-7 expression level of the transfectants was approximately 30-fold higher, and the luciferase activity was ablated by 92%. miR-7 significantly inhibited cell growth not only in PC-9 and H3255 but also in RPC-9 and H1975. Expression of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1), RAF-1, and EGFR was suppressed in the four cell lines. Injection of the miR-7-expressing plasmid revealed marked tumor regression in a mouse xenograft model using RPC-9 and H1975. EGFR, RAF-1, and IRS-1 were suppressed in the residual tumors. These findings indicate promising therapeutic applications of miR-7-expressing plasmids against EGFR oncogene-addicted lung cancers including T790M resistance by liposomal delivery.

Here, we report a case of a 72-year-old woman who presented with pleural effusion. Although the pleural adenosine deaminase level was increased, surgical biopsy of the pleura and left inguinal lymph node indicated that the effusion was due to IgG4-RD. Active surveillance was initiated because serum IgG4 and pleural effusion naturally decreased and then completely disappeared. The patient has shown no recurrence for >4 years. This case suggests that pleural biopsy can be used to distinguish IgG4-RD from tuberculosis; moreover, some cases with pleural effusion could improve without treatment. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MakimotoGo en-aut-sei=Makimoto en-aut-mei=Go kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TaniguchiKohei en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Kohei kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SohJunichi en-aut-sei=Soh en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TaniguchiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToyookaShinichi en-aut-sei=Toyooka en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=YoshinoTadashi en-aut-sei=Yoshino en-aut-mei=Tadashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Pathology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery and Breast and Endocrinological Surgery, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Medical Technology, Okayama University Graduate School of Health Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery and Breast and Endocrinological Surgery, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Pathology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=IgG4-related disease kn-keyword=IgG4-related disease en-keyword=Pleural effusion kn-keyword=Pleural effusion en-keyword=Adenosine deaminase kn-keyword=Adenosine deaminase en-keyword=Pleural biopsy kn-keyword=Pleural biopsy en-keyword=Spontaneous remission kn-keyword=Spontaneous remission END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=104 cd-vols= no-issue=11 article-no= start-page=1440 end-page=1446 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2013 dt-pub=201311 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Lower gefitinib dose led to earlier resistance acquisition before emergence of T790M mutation in epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated lung cancer model en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Non-small-cell lung cancers with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are sensitive to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs); however, unlike cytotoxic agents, it is generally accepted that minimal doses of drugs inhibiting target molecules are sufficient when molecular-targeted agents, including EGFR-TKIs, are used. Thus, any utility of higher doses remains unclear. We compared low-dose (15mg/kg) gefitinib therapy with high-dose (50mg/kg) therapy using an EGFR-mutated lung cancer xenograft model. Both gefitinib doses induced tumor shrinkage, but tumors regrew in the low-dose group within 1month, whereas tumors in the high-dose group did not. Neither the T790M mutation nor MET amplification was apparent in regrown tumors. We also compared outcomes after two doses of gefitinib (5 and 25mg/kg) in a transgenic EGFR-mutated lung cancer mouse model. In line with the results obtained using the xenograft model, both gefitinib doses completely inhibited tumor growth, but tumors treated with the lower dose of gefitinib developed earlier drug resistance. In conclusion, a low gefitinib dose caused tumors to become drug-resistant prior to acquisition of the T790M mutation or MET amplification in EGFR-mutated models of lung cancer. This suggests that it is important to optimize the EGFR-TKI dose for treatment of EGFR mutation-associated lung cancer. Gefitinib may need to be given at a dose greater than the minimum required for inhibition of target molecules. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=HayakawaHiromi en-aut-sei=Hayakawa en-aut-mei=Hiromi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaTakashi en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=YasugiMasayuki en-aut-sei=Yasugi en-aut-mei=Masayuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakataSaburo en-aut-sei=Takata en-aut-mei=Saburo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=SakaiKatsuya en-aut-sei=Sakai en-aut-mei=Katsuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsumotoKunio en-aut-sei=Matsumoto en-aut-mei=Kunio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Natl Hosp Org, Shikoku Canc Ctr, Dept Thorac Oncol affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Kanazawa Univ, Canc Res Inst, Div Tumor Dynam & Regulat affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Kanazawa Univ, Canc Res Inst, Div Tumor Dynam & Regulat affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Med Univ affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Resp Med END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=47 cd-vols= no-issue=4 article-no= start-page=243 end-page=248 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1993 dt-pub=199308 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=MDR1 gene expression and treatment outcome in small cell lung cancer: MDR1 gene expression as an independent prognostic factor. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

We report a preliminary study to determine whether MDR1 gene expression level in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) tumors is a useful predictor of tumor response to chemotherapy and patient survival in association with myc amplification in the tumor. We analyzed 18 patients with SCLC receiving adriamycin and etoposide combination chemotherapy between August 1989 and November 1991; 16 males and 2 females, median age of 68 years, and 7 with limited disease and 11 with extensive disease. MDR1 mRNA expression level and myc family gene amplification were simultaneously determined by polymerase chain reaction using transbronchial biopsy specimens which were obtained at diagnosis. Patients with tumors expressing low MDR1 mRNA responded more favorably to chemotherapy than those with tumors expressing high MDRI mRNA, however, the difference in tumor response was statistically not significant (84.6% versus 40%). The overall survival was significantly shorter in the latter than in the former (7.2 months versus 11.7 months; p = 0.023). The survival of the 4 patients with tumor showing myc family gene amplification was almost identical to that of patients with tumors showing no amplification of the gene (8.2 months versus 8.8 months; p = 0.73). Multivariate Cox's regression analysis supports the notion that MDR1 may be a useful independent prognostic factor.

Molecular-targeted therapy has brought about an era of precision medicine, and immune checkpoint inhibitors have brought hope for a cure for advanced NSCLC. In the wake of this remarkable advancement, lung cancer with comorbid interstitial pneumonia (IP) has been completely left behind, as most clinical trials exclude patients with comorbid IP. IP, especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), is often accompanied by lung cancer, and acute exacerbation can develop during various cancer therapies, including surgery, radiotherapy and pharmacotherapy. In this review, we focus on the clinical questions concerning pharmacotherapy in cases of advanced lung cancer with comorbid IP and discuss what we can do with the currently available data. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Medical Technology, Okayama University Graduate School of Health Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=lung cancer kn-keyword=lung cancer en-keyword=interstitial pneumonia kn-keyword=interstitial pneumonia END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=47 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=209 end-page=214 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1993 dt-pub=199306 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Mortality and morbidity in two-year disease-free survivors of small cell lung cancer after treatment with combination chemotherapy with or without irradiation. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

We evaluated the long-term outcome of 148 patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who had been entered into clinical trials of chemotherapy with or without thoracic and prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) between 1981 and 1987. Eighteen patients (12%) survived for 2 or more years. With a minimum follow-up of 4.5 years, 10 of the 18 patients who remained disease-free at 2 years are currently alive and free of SCLC. Seven of these 10 patients currently function as they did before diagnosis. However, three suffer from central nervous system changes of varying degrees in severity which appeared 2-3 years after PCI. Eight of the 18 patients who were disease-free at 2 years have died. Two died of isolated relapse in the brain at 3.6 and 4.2 years after initiation of chemotherapy. Five died of other malignancies while continuing their complete response to SCLC; two of non-small cell lung cancer, two of acute myelogenous leukemia, and one of hepatocellular carcinoma. Another patient died of an unrelated disease without any evidence of SCLC. A small but substantial proportion of patients who underwent intensive treatment will achieve long-term survival; however, these patients remain at higher risk for second cancers and late toxicities. Therefore, attention must be directed to defining the safest way to employ such treatment in the management of SCLC.

Nintedanib is a multi-kinase inhibitor approved for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF); however, its efficacy and safety for patients with IPF and restricted pulmonary function remain unclear. Therefore, the objective of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of nintedanib for patients with IPF and forced vital capacity (FVC) ≤ 50%.
Methods
This was a multi-center retrospective study performed by the Okayama Respiratory Disease Study Group. Patients were allocated into FVC ≤ 50% and FVC > 50% groups based on their predicted FVC. The primary endpoints were FVC changes from baseline after 6 and 12 months.
Results
45 patients were eligible for the study. 18 patients had FVC ≤ 50%, and 27 patients had FVC > 50%. Overall, 31 and 19 patients underwent pulmonary function tests at 6 and 12 months after initiating nintedanib, respectively. FVC changes from baseline at 6 and 12 months after initiating nintedanib were comparable between the two groups. Adverse events were seen in all patients, and the rates of patients who discontinued nintedanib were also comparable (38.9% vs. 37.0%, p = 1.000). Multiple regression analysis showed that age and forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1)/FVC were negatively correlated with changes in FVC at 6 months after initiating nintedanib.
Conclusions
Our data suggest that nintedanib can be a useful agent for IPF patients, including those with a low FVC, and that age and FEV1/FVC are predictive markers for changes in FVC following nintedanib treatment. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SenooSatoru en-aut-sei=Senoo en-aut-mei=Satoru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki

Twenty-seven previously untreated patients with unresectable non-small cell lung cancer were treated with a 3-drug combination of ifosfamide, cisplatin, and vindesine as a phase II study. Patients received ifosfamide, 1.3g/m2, on days 1 to 5; cisplatin, 20mg/m2, on days 1 to 5; and vindesine, 3mg/m2, on days 1 and 8; with a sufficient parenteral hydration. Courses were repeated every 4 weeks. Twenty males and seven females with a median age of 61 years were treated and fully evaluated. Five patients had stage IIIA, seven had stage IIIB, and 15 had stage IV disease. One patient with adenocarcinoma achieved a complete response and 16 achieved a partial response, for an overall response rate of 63% (95% confidence limit: 45% to 81%). The median duration of response was 34 weeks (range: 9 to 52 weeks). The median survival time was 58 weeks for patients with IIIA/B disease, and 33 weeks for those with IV disease. The major toxicity was myelosuppression, however, it was generally well-tolerated. These results indicate that the 3-drug combination is active against non-small cell lung cancer and warrants further clinical trials.

We conducted a retrospective study of consecutive subjects with asbestos-induced DPT. Medical data such as initial symptoms, radiological findings, respiratory function test results, and clinical course were collected and analyzed. There were 24 patients between 2003 and 2012. All were men, and the median age at the development of DPT was 74 years. The top occupational category associated with asbestos exposure was dockyard workers. The median duration of asbestos exposure was 35.0 years, and the median latency from first exposure to the onset of DPT was 49.0 years. There were no significant differences in respiratory function test results between the higher and lower Brinkman index groups or between unilateral and bilateral DPT. Thirteen patients had a history of benign asbestos pleural effusion (BAPE), and the median duration from pleural fluid accumulation to DPT with severe respiratory compromise was 28.4 months. DPT with severe respiratory compromise can develop after a long latency following occupational asbestos exposure and a history of BAPE. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=NojimaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Nojima en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=FujimotoNobukazu en-aut-sei=Fujimoto en-aut-mei=Nobukazu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatoKatsuya en-aut-sei=Kato en-aut-mei=Katsuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=FuchimotoYasuko en-aut-sei=Fuchimoto en-aut-mei=Yasuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishimotoTakumi en-aut-sei=Kishimoto en-aut-mei=Takumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medical Oncology, Okayama Rosai Hospital affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Hospital affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine Okayama Rosai Hospital affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine (Thoracic Oncology), Okayama University Hospital affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Internal Medicine, Okayama Rosai Hospital affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=asbestos kn-keyword=asbestos en-keyword=pleural thickening kn-keyword=pleural thickening en-keyword=MRC dyspnea scale kn-keyword=MRC dyspnea scale en-keyword=respiratory function test kn-keyword=respiratory function test en-keyword=costophrenic angle kn-keyword=costophrenic angle END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=52 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=105 end-page=111 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=1998 dt-pub=199804 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Prognostic factors of small-cell lung cancer in Okayama Lung Cancer Study Group Trials. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

In order to elucidate factors influencing the prognosis of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), we reviewed the records of 253 patients with SCLC and evaluated 20 pretreatment prognostic factors by univariate analysis and Cox's multiple regression analysis. Recursive partitioning and amalgamation (RPA) was employed to identify subgroups with similar survival rates. Cox's multiple regression analysis identified five significant factors: extent of disease, number of metastatic sites, serum albumin, serum lactate dehydrogenase, and presence of weight loss. Among these, extent of disease was the most influential factor. RPA analysis revealed three subgroups predicting significantly different prognoses. The median survival time and 3-year survival rate were 18.4 months and 20.6%, respectively for the good-risk group (limited disease without weight loss), 13.5 months and 9.1%, respectively for the intermediate-risk group (limited disease with weight loss or extensive disease with less than two metastatic sites), and 9.2 months and 0%, respectively for the poor-risk group (extensive disease with two or more metastatic sites). These results will be useful for development of new staging system or subsequent stratification for randomized trials.

The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical role of CSC-related markers in patients with NSCLC undergoing induction chemoradiotherapy (CRT). Fifty patients with clinically diagnosed N2 or N3 NSCLC who underwent induction CRT with docetaxel and cisplatin concurrently with thoracic radiation followed by surgery were examined in this study. The expressions of CSC related markers (CD133, ALDH1, ABCG2, and Bmi-1) were examined using immunohistochemical staining in surgically resected specimens. Among the 50 patients, 20 patients had no residual tumor cells in the resected specimen when examined pathologically; CSC-related marker expressions and their correlation to survival were evaluated in the other 30 patients. After a median follow-up period of 72 months, the 5-year overall survival rate of the patients with CD133-positive or ALDH1-positive specimens was significantly worse than that of the patients with both CD133-negative and ALDH1-negative expressions (449% vs. 90.0%, respectively; P=0.042). In a multivariate analysis. CD133 and ALDH1 negativity (P=0.047) and cN2-3 single station metastasis (P=0.03) were significant independent prognostic factors for prolonged survival. The expressions of CSC-related markers after CRT were significantly correlated with a poor prognosis in patients with NSCLC. The development of therapeutic strategies including adjuvant therapy that take CSC-related marker positivity into consideration is likely to be a key factor in further improvements of the prognosis of patients undergoing trimodality therapy. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ShienKazuhiko en-aut-sei=Shien en-aut-mei=Kazuhiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToyookaShinichi en-aut-sei=Toyooka en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchimuraKouichi en-aut-sei=Ichimura en-aut-mei=Kouichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=SohJunichi en-aut-sei=Soh en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=FurukawaMasashi en-aut-sei=Furukawa en-aut-mei=Masashi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakiYuho en-aut-sei=Maki en-aut-mei=Yuho kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MuraokaTakayuki en-aut-sei=Muraoka en-aut-mei=Takayuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanakaNorimitsu en-aut-sei=Tanaka en-aut-mei=Norimitsu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=UenoTsuyoshi en-aut-sei=Ueno en-aut-mei=Tsuyoshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=AsanoHiroaki en-aut-sei=Asano en-aut-mei=Hiroaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=TsukudaKazunori en-aut-sei=Tsukuda en-aut-mei=Kazunori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamaneMasaomi en-aut-sei=Yamane en-aut-mei=Masaomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtoTakahiro en-aut-sei=Oto en-aut-mei=Takahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyoshiShinichiro en-aut-sei=Miyoshi en-aut-mei=Shinichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=15 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Pathol affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=12 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=13 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg affil-num=14 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Resp Med affil-num=15 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Canc & Thorac Surg en-keyword=NSCLC kn-keyword=NSCLC en-keyword=Cancer stem cell kn-keyword=Cancer stem cell en-keyword=CD133 kn-keyword=CD133 en-keyword=ALDH1 kn-keyword=ALDH1 en-keyword=Chemoradiotherapy kn-keyword=Chemoradiotherapy en-keyword=Induction therapy kn-keyword=Induction therapy END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=71 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=453 end-page=457 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2017 dt-pub=201710 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Protective Effects of Bisoprolol against Acute Exacerbation in Moderate-to-Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= Although recent retrospective studies suggested that the use of β-blockers appears to help improve the mortality rate and decrease the rate of exacerbation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with heart failure, the effects of β-blockers on COPD patients without heart failure have not been established. Based on previous reports, we have launched a multicenter, prospective, single-arm phase II study to evaluate the preventive effect of the cardioselective β-blocker bisoprolol in COPD exacerbation, in Japanese individuals with moderate-to-severe COPD who do not have heart failure but do have hypertension requiring the use of medication. The primary endpoint is the rate of mild-to-severe COPD exacerbation. The results of this study will clarify whether bisoprolol can prevent exacerbation in COPD patients without heart failure. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TaniguchiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OdaNaohiro en-aut-sei=Oda en-aut-mei=Naohiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MorichikaDaisuke en-aut-sei=Morichika en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=OzeIsao en-aut-sei=Oze en-aut-mei=Isao kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoYasushi en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Yasushi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchikawaHirohisa en-aut-sei=Ichikawa en-aut-mei=Hirohisa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=FujiiUtako en-aut-sei=Fujii en-aut-mei=Utako kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanehiroArihiko en-aut-sei=Kanehiro en-aut-mei=Arihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Division of Epidemiology and Prevention, Aichi Cancer Center Research Institute kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=National Hospital Organization Minami-Okayama Medical Center kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, KKR Takamatsu Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease kn-keyword=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease en-keyword=β-blocker kn-keyword=β-blocker en-keyword=bisoprolol kn-keyword=bisoprolol en-keyword=exacerbation kn-keyword=exacerbation en-keyword=heart failure kn-keyword=heart failure END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=50 cd-vols= no-issue=8 article-no= start-page=863 end-page=871 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200121 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Pulmonary aspergillosis as a late complication after surgery for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated with induction chemoradiotherapy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Purpose
Some long-term survivors after surgery for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with induction chemoradiotherapy (trimodality treatment) develop chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA). The aim of our study was to assess the characteristics and outcomes of CPA that develops after trimodality treatment. Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the data of 187 NSCLC patients who underwent trimodality treatment between 1999 and 2018.
Results
Six male ever-smoker patients developed CPA. All 6 patients had undergone extended resection for NSCLC and had a history of either adjuvant chemotherapy (n = 3) or radiation pneumonitis (n = 4). Among the 4 patients with CPA localized in a single lung, 3 patients were treated surgically (completion pneumonectomy or cavernostomy) and 1 patient was treated with antifungal therapy alone. Both treatments led to the improved control of CPA. In contrast, patients with CPA in both lungs were not candidates for surgery, and died of CPA. The survival rates after trimodality treatment in the CPA group and the group without CPA were comparable (10-year survival rate, 50.0% vs. 57.6%, P = 0.59).
Conclusion
The early diagnosis of CPA localized in a single lung after NSCLC surgery is critical to improving control and survival in patients with CPA. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SugimotoSeiichiro en-aut-sei=Sugimoto en-aut-mei=Seiichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=SohJunichi en-aut-sei=Soh en-aut-mei=Junichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=SuzawaKen en-aut-sei=Suzawa en-aut-mei=Ken kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyoshiKentaroh en-aut-sei=Miyoshi en-aut-mei=Kentaroh kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtaniShinji en-aut-sei=Otani en-aut-mei=Shinji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamamotoHiromasa en-aut-sei=Yamamoto en-aut-mei=Hiromasa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=OkazakiMikio en-aut-sei=Okazaki en-aut-mei=Mikio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=YamaneMasaomi en-aut-sei=Yamane en-aut-mei=Masaomi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtoTakahiro en-aut-sei=Oto en-aut-mei=Takahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanazawaSusumu en-aut-sei=Kanazawa en-aut-mei=Susumu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToyookaShinichi en-aut-sei=Toyooka en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=Department of General Thoracic Surgery, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=Lung cancer kn-keyword=Lung cancer en-keyword=Aspergillosis kn-keyword=Aspergillosis en-keyword=Surgery kn-keyword=Surgery en-keyword=Radiation kn-keyword=Radiation en-keyword=Chemotherapy kn-keyword=Chemotherapy END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol= cd-vols= no-issue= article-no= start-page= end-page= dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2020 dt-pub=20200504 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Radiation pneumonitis after definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy with cisplatin/docetaxel for non-small cell lung cancer: Analysis of dose-volume parameters en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Background: Radiation pneumonitis (RP) is a major pulmonary adverse event of chest radiotherapy. The PACIFIC trial that identified durvalumab as an effective subsequent-line therapy after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) found that patients with grade 2 or higher RP may have to be excluded from treatment under certain criteria. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between grade ≥2 RP and the parameters of dose-volume histograms after CCRT with cisplatin/docetaxel for stage III non-small cell lung cancer and conduct a subset analysis of severe RP that can lead to the permanent discontinuation of treatment per the PACIFIC trial criteria to help determine treatment strategy.
Methods: We calculated the percentage of the lung volume received at least 5 Gy (V5) and 20 Gy (V20), the mean lung dose (MLD), and the lung volume spared from a 5 Gy dose (VS5) to the total lung volume. Factors affecting the incidence of grade ≥2 RP were identified; severe RP was defined as grade ≥3 as well as grade 2 RP that required ≥10 mg prednisolone for at least 12 weeks.
Results: This study included 45 patients. On univariate analysis, all parameters and total lung volume were found to be significant predictors of grade ≥2 RP (P = .001, .003, .03, .004, and .02, respectively). On multivariate analysis, V20 was a significant predictive factor of grade ≥2 RP (P = .007). Severe RP developed in 6 of 37 patients (16.2%) whose V20 values were 35% or lower. On univariate analysis, only V20 was a significant predictor of severe RP in these patients (P = .01).
Conclusions: The best approach to reduce the rate of grade ≥2 RP is to maintain the V5, V20, MLD, and VS5 as low as possible during radiotherapy planning in patients receiving definitive CCRT with cisplatin/docetaxel. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KatsuiKuniaki en-aut-sei=Katsui en-aut-mei=Kuniaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OgataTakeshi en-aut-sei=Ogata en-aut-mei=Takeshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=WatanabeKenta en-aut-sei=Watanabe en-aut-mei=Kenta kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatayamaNorihisa en-aut-sei=Katayama en-aut-mei=Norihisa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KurodaMasahiro en-aut-sei=Kuroda en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirakiTakao en-aut-sei=Hiraki en-aut-mei=Takao kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=ToyookaShinichi en-aut-sei=Toyooka en-aut-mei=Shinichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanazawaSusumu en-aut-sei=Kanazawa en-aut-mei=Susumu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Proton Beam Therapy, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Science kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Iwakuni Clinical Center kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Radiological Technology, Graduate School of Health Sciences, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Science kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Science kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Departments of General Thoracic Surgery and Breast and Endocrinological Surgery, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Science kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Radiology, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Science kn-affil= en-keyword=cisplatin kn-keyword=cisplatin en-keyword=docetaxel kn-keyword=docetaxel en-keyword=dose-volume histogram kn-keyword=dose-volume histogram en-keyword=non-small cell lung cancer kn-keyword=non-small cell lung cancer en-keyword=PACIFIC trial kn-keyword=PACIFIC trial en-keyword=radiation pneumonitis kn-keyword=radiation pneumonitis END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=14 cd-vols= no-issue=11 article-no= start-page=2009 end-page=2018 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2019 dt-pub=20190730 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Rapid Acquisition of Alectinib Resistance in ALK-Positive Lung Cancer With High Tumor Mutation Burden en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Introduction
The highly selective ALK receptor tyrosine kinase (ALK) inhibitor alectinib is standard therapy for ALK-positive lung cancers; however, some tumors quickly develop resistance. Here, we investigated the mechanism associated with rapid acquisition of resistance using clinical samples.
Methods
Autopsied samples were obtained from lung, liver, and renal tumors from a 51-year-old male patient with advanced ALK-positive lung cancer who had acquired resistance to alectinib in only 3 months. We established an alectinib-resistant cell line (ABC-14) from pleural effusion and an alectinib/crizotinib-resistant cell line (ABC-17) and patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model from liver tumors. Additionally, we performed next-generation sequencing, direct DNA sequencing, and quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.
Results
ABC-14 cells harbored no ALK mutations and were sensitive to crizotinib while also exhibiting MNNG HOS transforming gene (MET) gene amplification and amphiregulin overexpression. Additionally, combined treatment with crizotinib/erlotinib inhibited cell growth. ABC-17 and PDX tumors harbored ALK G1202R, and PDX tumors metastasized to multiple organs in vivo, whereas the third-generation ALK-inhibitor, lorlatinib, diminished tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Next-generation sequencing indicated high tumor mutation burden and heterogeneous tumor evolution. The autopsied lung tumors harbored ALK G1202R (c. 3604 G>A) and the right renal metastasis harbored ALK G1202R (c. 3604 G>C); the mutation thus comprised different codon changes.
Conclusions
High tumor mutation burden and heterogeneous tumor evolution might be responsible for rapid acquisition of alectinib resistance. Timely lorlatinib administration or combined therapy with an ALK inhibitor and other receptor tyrosine-kinase inhibitors might constitute a potent strategy. en-copyright= kn-copyright=

At the time of progression to docetaxel, he commenced prednisolone because of immune-system-related diarrhea. After that, his general condition rapidly worsened with severe fatigue and hypoxia. Computed tomography revealed a massive increase of pleural effusion and replacement of almost the entire liver with cancer over a period of 5 weeks. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=HirabaeAtsuko en-aut-sei=Hirabae en-aut-mei=Atsuko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=SunamiRyota en-aut-sei=Sunami en-aut-mei=Ryota kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OtaMoeko en-aut-sei=Ota en-aut-mei=Moeko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=IwamotoYoshitaka en-aut-sei=Iwamoto en-aut-mei=Yoshitaka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=lung cancer kn-keyword=lung cancer en-keyword=immune checkpoint inhibitors kn-keyword=immune checkpoint inhibitors en-keyword=pembrolizumab kn-keyword=pembrolizumab en-keyword=hyperprogression kn-keyword=hyperprogression END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=60 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=173 end-page=179 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2006 dt-pub=200606 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Recent improvement in lung cancer screening: a comparison of the results carried out in two different time periods. en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

To evaluate recent improvements in lung cancer screening, we compared the results of recently conducted lung cancer screening with those of a previous screening. This study compared the survival of lung cancer patients detected by lung cancer screening conducted between 1976 and 1984 (early period) with that conducted between 1989 and 1997 (late period). Two hundred seventy-six patients with lung cancer were detected in the early period and 541 patients with lung cancer were detected in the late period. The median survival time (late : 49.8 vs. early : 27.8 months) and the 5-year survival rate (late : 47.8 vs. early : 34.8%) of the patients with lung cancer detected in the late period were significantly better than those in the early period (p = 0.0054). Among patients undergoing resection, the proportion of pathological stage I patients in the late period was significantly higher than that in the early period (late : 60.8 vs. early : 54.9%, p = 0.005). Multivariate analysis showed that the screening time period was a significant prognostic factor (hazard ratio = 0.685, 95% confidence interval : 0.563-0.832, p = 0.0002). These results were consistent with the findings of case-control studies of lung cancer screening programs in the late period recently conducted in Japan, which also showed a greater efficacy for screening than for previous case-control studies in the early period.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors have been shown to prevent carcinogen-induced experimental tumors. We investigated the effect of a COX-2 inhibitor, celecoxib, on cisplatin-induced lung tumors. One hundred twenty 4-week-old A/J mice were divided into 6 groups:group 1, no treatment;group 2, low-dose celecoxib (150mg/kg);group 3, high-dose celecoxib (1,500mg/kg);group 4, cisplatin alone;group 5, cisplatin plus low-dose celecoxib;and group 6, cisplatin plus high-dose celecoxib. Mice in groups 4-6 were administered cisplatin (1.62mg/kg, i.p.) once a week for 10 weeks between 7 and 16 weeks of age. All mice were sacrificed at week 30. Tumor incidence was 15.8% in group 1, 25% in group 2, 26.3% in group 3, 60% in group 4, 50% in group 5, and 50% in group 6. Tumor multiplicity was 0.2, 0.3, 0.3, 1.3, 1.0, and 0.6 in groups 1-6, respectively. Tumor multiplicity in the cisplatin-treated mice was reduced by celecoxib treatment in a dose-dependent manner (p＜0.05, group 4 vs. group 6). Celecoxib significantly reduced COX-2 expression in cisplatin-induced tumors (p＜0.01, group 4 vs. group 6). en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OkadaToshiaki en-aut-sei=Okada en-aut-mei=Toshiaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishinoDaizo en-aut-sei=Kishino en-aut-mei=Daizo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatayamaHideki en-aut-sei=Katayama en-aut-mei=Hideki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KuyamaShouichi en-aut-sei=Kuyama en-aut-mei=Shouichi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=SatoKen en-aut-sei=Sato en-aut-mei=Ken kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MimotoJunko en-aut-sei=Mimoto en-aut-mei=Junko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=UeokaHiroshi en-aut-sei=Ueoka en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of General Internal Medicine 4, Kawasaki Hospital, Kawasaki Medical School affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Medicine, Yamaguchi-Ube Medical Center affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital en-keyword=cisplatin kn-keyword=cisplatin en-keyword=non-small cell lung cancer kn-keyword=non-small cell lung cancer en-keyword=celecoxib kn-keyword=celecoxib en-keyword=cyclooxygenase-2 kn-keyword=cyclooxygenase-2 en-keyword=chemoprevention kn-keyword=chemoprevention END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=60 cd-vols= no-issue=5 article-no= start-page=295 end-page=298 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2006 dt-pub=200610 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Severe Interstitial Pneumonia Induced by Paclitaxel in a Patient with Adenocarcinoma of the Lung en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=A 71-year-old Japanese man with adenocarcinoma of the lung developed interstitial pneumonia after treatment with paclitaxel. The patient had acute chills and fever on the fourth day after the second exposure to paclitaxel, rapidly got worse despite empiric therapies, and developed prolonged respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation. Four months later, he died of respiratory failure due to progression of both interstitial pneumonia and lung cancer. This is the first case developing fatal paclitaxel-induced pulmonary toxicity to date. Interstitial pneumonia should be considered one of the possible life-threatening complications during treatment with paclitaxel. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=SuzakiNoriyuki en-aut-sei=Suzaki en-aut-mei=Noriyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HirakiAkio en-aut-sei=Hiraki en-aut-mei=Akio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=UeokaHiroshi en-aut-sei=Ueoka en-aut-mei=Hiroshi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoYasushi en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Yasushi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KozukiToshiyuki en-aut-sei=Kozuki en-aut-mei=Toshiyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TabataMasahiro en-aut-sei=Tabata en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanehiroArihiko en-aut-sei=Kanehiro en-aut-mei=Arihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama University en-keyword=paclitaxel kn-keyword=paclitaxel en-keyword=adverse effect kn-keyword=adverse effect en-keyword=lung cancer kn-keyword=lung cancer en-keyword=interstitial pneumonia kn-keyword=interstitial pneumonia END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=322 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=168 end-page=177 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2014 dt-pub=20140310 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Src mediates ERK reactivation in gefitinib resistance in non-small cell lung cancer en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=To study epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) resistance mechanisms, we established a novel gefitinib-resistant lung cancer cell line derived from an EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer cell line (PC-9) pretreated with 4-(methylnitrosamino)1-(3-pyridy1)-1-butanone (designated PC9-GR). We found that gefitinib substantially suppressed the EGFR signaling pathway, whereas ERK was reactivated after several hours in PC9-GR but not in PC-9. The combination of gefitinib with ERK inhibition (by U0126) restored gefitinib susceptibility in PC9-GR, but PI3K-Akt inhibition with LY294002 did not. Although the levels of phosphorylated Src were up-regulated simultaneously with ERK reactivation, neither ERK suppression using U0126 nor an ERK-specific siRNA induced Src phosphorylation. Furthermore, dual inhibition of EGFR and Src restored gefitinib sensitivity in PC9-GR in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, our results indicate that Src-mediated ERK reactivation may play a role in a novel gefitinib resistance mechanism, and that the combined use of gefitinib with a Src inhibitor may be a potent strategy to overcome this resistance. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaradaDaijiro en-aut-sei=Harada en-aut-mei=Daijiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=YasugiMasayuki en-aut-sei=Yasugi en-aut-mei=Masayuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HottaKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Hotta en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TabataMasahiro en-aut-sei=Tabata en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Hosp, Kawasaki Med Sch, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Resp Med en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR en-keyword=Src kn-keyword=Src en-keyword=ERK kn-keyword=ERK en-keyword=Lung cancer kn-keyword=Lung cancer en-keyword=Gefitinib kn-keyword=Gefitinib en-keyword=Resistance kn-keyword=Resistance END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=76 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=26 end-page=31 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2012 dt-pub=201204 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Strong anti-tumor effect of NVP-AUY922, a novel Hsp90 inhibitor, on non-small cell lung cancer en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The anti-tumor activity of a newly developed Hsp90 inhibitor, NVP-AUY922 (AUY922), against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was examined. Twenty-one NSCLC cell lines were used, the somatic alterations of which were characterized. Cell proliferation was analyzed using a modified MTS assay. Expression of the client proteins was assessed using Western blotting. The cell cycle was analyzed using flow cytometry. The IC50 value of AUY922 for the NSCLC cell lines ranged from 5.2 to 860 nM (median, 20.4 nM). Based on previous data, cells with an IC50 of less than 50 nM were classified as sensitive cells and 19 of the 21 NSCLC cell lines were judged to be sensitive. The IC50 of five malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) cell lines revealed that the MPM cells had a significantly higher IC50 value (median, 89.2 nM; range, 22.2-24, 100 nM) than the NSCLC cells (p = 0.015). There was significant depletion of both the total and phosphorylated client proteins - EGFR, MET, HERZ and ART - at low drug concentrations (50-100 nM) in drug-sensitive cell lines. Cell-cycle analysis was performed for two sensitive cell lines, H1975 and H838. Following AUY922 treatment, an increase in the sub-G(0)-G(1) cell population, as well as appearance of cleaved PARP expression, indicated the induction of apoptosis. In conclusion, AUY922 was effective against most NSCLC cell lines, independent of the type of known molecular alteration, and appears to be a promising new drug for the treatment of NSCLC.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of metformin on the immune system in human cancer patients in vivo. The primary outcome parameter will be the rate change in the population of CD8＋ T cells, which produce multiple cytokines. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=WatanabeMototsugu en-aut-sei=Watanabe

of small-cell lung cancer cells expressing CD133 and CD87 show resistance to chemotherapy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Tumors are presumed to contain a small population of cancer stem cells (CSCs) that initiate tumor growth and promote tumor spreading. Multidrug resistance in CSCs is thought to allow the tumor to evade conventional therapy. This study focused on expression of CD133 and CD87 because CD133 is a putative marker of CSCs in some cancers including lung, and CD87 is associated with a stem-cell-like property in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Six SCLC cell lines were used. The expression levels of CD133 and CD87 were analyzed by real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and flow cytometry. CD133+/- and CD87+/- cells were isolated by flow cytometry. The drug sensitivities were determined using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay. Non-obese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency mice were used for the tumor formation assay. SBC-7 cells showed the highest expression levels of both CD133 and CD87 among the cell lines. CD133-/CD87-, CD133+/CD87-, and CD133-/CD87+ cells were isolated from SBC-7 cells; however, CD133+/CD87+ cells could not be obtained. Both CD133+/CD87- and CD133-/CD87+ subpopulations showed a higher resistance to etoposide and paclitaxel and greater re-populating ability than the CD133-/CD87- subpopulation. CD133+/CD87- cells contained more G0 quiescent cells than CD133-/CD87- cells. By contrast, CD133-/CD87- cells showed the highest tumorigenic potential. In conclusion, both CD133 and CD87 proved to be inadequate markers for CSCs; however, they might be beneficial for predicting resistance to chemotherapy.

We herein report a case of osimertinib-induced interstitial lung disease (OsiILD) with an organizing pneumonia (OP) pattern and provide a literature-based review. Six months after osimertinib administration, a 75-year-old woman with right pleural carcinomatosis developed ILD with an OP pattern. After salvage chemotherapy, osimertinib with corticosteroid was successfully re-administered. A literature review suggested that 1) OsiILD with an OP pattern was rare but should be recognized, and 2) re-administration of osimertinib in OsiILD was successful in select patients. A criterion that determines whether a patient would benefit from re-administration is warranted. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ItanoJunko en-aut-sei=Itano en-aut-mei=Junko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=HigoHisao en-aut-sei=Higo en-aut-mei=Hisao kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MakimotoGo en-aut-sei=Makimoto en-aut-mei=Go kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=NishiiKazuya en-aut-sei=Nishii en-aut-mei=Kazuya kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HottaKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Hotta en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=osimertinib kn-keyword=osimertinib en-keyword=drug-induced ILD kn-keyword=drug-induced ILD en-keyword=reversed halo sign kn-keyword=reversed halo sign en-keyword=organizing pneumonia pattern kn-keyword=organizing pneumonia pattern en-keyword=re-administration kn-keyword=re-administration END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=65 cd-vols= no-issue=6 article-no= start-page=353 end-page=362 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=201112 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Targeting Angiogenesis in Cancer Therapy en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=Angiogenesis is an essential process in tumor growth. The concept of angiogenesis, when proposed by Folksman in 1971, had a great impact on cancer research and therapy, as the survival and proliferation of cancer depend on angiogenesis, which could be a target of cancer therapy. In subsequent decades, numerous antiangiogenic agents were developed, and some of them have been applied clinically. However, angiogenesis includes a complex and multistep process that has not been sufficiently elucidated. In this review, we focus on signaling pathways related with tumor angiogenesis and several antiangiogenic agents approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration or under investigation. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences en-keyword=angiogenesis kn-keyword=angiogenesis en-keyword=cancer kn-keyword=cancer END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=64 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=33 end-page=37 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2010 dt-pub=201002 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Triplet Chemotherapy with Cisplatin, Docetaxel, and Irinotecan for Patients with Recurrent or Refractory Non-small Cell Lung Cancer en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=

We examined the feasibility of triplet chemotherapy using cisplatin, docetaxel, and irinotecan for patients with recurrent or refractory non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), retrospectively. Twenty-five patients (21 men and 4 women) with NSCLC and good performance status who were <70 years old were analyzed. The median age was 58 years. Most patients had performance status 1 (16/25), stage IV disease (18/25) and adenocarcinoma-histology (16/25). Cisplatin and docetaxel were given on day 1 and irinotecan on day 2;the cycle was repeated every 3 weeks. The objective response rate was 39.1% (95% confidence interval:18.7-59.5%). The median survival time and actual 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 14.3 months, 32%, 20%, and 8%, respectively. Of note, only 6 patients were treated with gefitinib at the recurrence after triplet chemotherapy;of these, 4 (67%) achieved a partial response, which might result in favorable survival. Grade 3/4 toxicities consisted of neutropenia (100%), neutropenic fever (56%), nausea/vomiting (40%), and diarrhea (16%);no cases of treatment-related death occurred. Triplet chemotherapy showed impressive survival data in our clinical trial, but proved too toxic for use in treating patients with NSCLC in the clinical practice.

Thus, the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with poor PS remains unclear. Herein, we used data from a retrospective cohort to assess the potential clinical benefits of ICIs in NSCLC patients with poor PS. Data from NSCLC patients who received ICI monotherapy at 9 institutions between December 2015 and May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. After excluding 4 patients who lacked PS data, a total of 527 ICI-treated patients, including 79 patients with PS 2 or higher, were used for our analyses. The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with PS 2 or higher were significantly shorter compared with those of PS 0-1 patients (median PFS, 4.1 vs 2.0 months;P < .001 and median OS, 17.4 vs 4.0 months;P < .001). Among NSCLC patients with programmed cell death protein-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression of 50% or higher who were treated with pembrolizumab as first-line therapy, the median PFS times of patients with PS 2 and 0-1 were 7.3 and 8.1 months, respectively. There was no significant difference in PFS between patients with PS 2 and 0-1 (P = .321). Although poor PS was significantly associated with worse outcomes in NSCLC patients treated with ICIs, pembrolizumab as a first-line treatment in NSCLC patients expressing high levels of PD-L1 could provide a clinical benefit, even in patients with PS 2. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=KanoHirohisa en-aut-sei=Kano en-aut-mei=Hirohisa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaradaDaijiro en-aut-sei=Harada en-aut-mei=Daijiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=InoueKoji en-aut-sei=Inoue en-aut-mei=Koji kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KayataniHiroe en-aut-sei=Kayatani en-aut-mei=Hiroe kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=HosokawaShinobu en-aut-sei=Hosokawa en-aut-mei=Shinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KishinoDaizo en-aut-sei=Kishino en-aut-mei=Daizo kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=WatanabeKazuhiko en-aut-sei=Watanabe en-aut-mei=Kazuhiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=OdaNaohiro en-aut-sei=Oda en-aut-mei=Naohiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=HaraNaofumi en-aut-sei=Hara en-aut-mei=Naofumi kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= en-aut-name=NinomiyaKiichiro en-aut-sei=Ninomiya en-aut-mei=Kiichiro kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=12 ORCID= en-aut-name=HottaKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Hotta en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=13 ORCID= en-aut-name=MaedaYoshinobu en-aut-sei=Maeda en-aut-mei=Yoshinobu kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=14 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=15 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Thoracic Oncology, National Hospital Organization Shikoku Cancer Center kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Ehime Prefectural Central Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=5 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, National Hospital Organization Okayama Medical Center kn-affil= affil-num=6 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Japanese Red Cross Okayama Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=7 en-affil=Department of Respiratory Medicine, Himeji Red Cross Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=8 en-affil=Department of Internal Medicine, Okayama Saiseikai General Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=9 en-affil=Department of General Internal Medicine 4, Kawasaki Medical School kn-affil= affil-num=10 en-affil=Department of Internal Medicine, Fukuyama City Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=11 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=12 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=13 en-affil=Center for Innovative Clinical Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= affil-num=14 en-affil=Department of Hematology, Oncology, and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmaceutical Sciences kn-affil= affil-num=15 en-affil=Department of Allergy and Respiratory Medicine, Okayama University Hospital kn-affil= en-keyword=immune checkpoint inhibitor kn-keyword=immune checkpoint inhibitor en-keyword=non-small cell-lung cancer kn-keyword=non-small cell-lung cancer en-keyword=PD-L1 kn-keyword=PD-L1 en-keyword=pembrolizumab kn-keyword=pembrolizumab en-keyword=poor performance status kn-keyword=poor performance status END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=319 cd-vols= no-issue=4 article-no= start-page=417 end-page=423 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2013 dt-pub=20130215 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=Vandetanib is effective in EGFR-mutant lung cancer cells with PTEN deficiency en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=The effectiveness of vandetanib, an agent that targets RET, VEGFR and EGFR signaling, against EGFR-mutant lung cancer cells with PTEN loss was investigated. Two EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines, PC-9 (PTEN wild type) and NCI-H1650 (PTEN null), were used. We transfected an intact FTEN gene into H1650 cells and knocked down PTEN expression in PC-9 cells using shRNA. The effectiveness of gefitinib and vandetanib was assessed using a xenograft model. While PC-9 cells were more resistant to vandetanib than gefitinib, H1650 cells were more sensitive to vandetanib than gefitinib. Both gefitinib and vandetanib suppressed the activation of EGFR and MAPK in H1650 cells, although phosphorylated AKT levels were not affected. In an H1650 cell xenograft model, vandetanib was also more effective than gefitinib. Although PTEN-transfected H1650 cells did not show restoration of sensitivity to gefitinib in vitro, the xenograft tumors responded to gefitinib and vandetanib. Knockdown of PTEN in PC-9 cells caused resistance to gefitinib. In conclusion, vandetanib might be effective in NSCLC with EGFR mutations that lack FTEN expression. The contribution of PTEN absence to vandetanib activity in NSCLC cells harboring EGFR mutations should be further examined. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TakedaHiromasa en-aut-sei=Takeda en-aut-mei=Hiromasa kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MinamiDaisuke en-aut-sei=Minami en-aut-mei=Daisuke kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KataokaItaru en-aut-sei=Kataoka en-aut-mei=Itaru kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=OchiNobuaki en-aut-sei=Ochi en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=Kawasaki Med Univ, Dept Gen Internal Med 4 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ, Grad Sch Med Dent & Pharmaceut Sci, Dept Hematol Oncol & Resp Med affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=Okayama Univ Hosp, Dept Resp Med en-keyword=Lung cancer kn-keyword=Lung cancer en-keyword=Vandetanib kn-keyword=Vandetanib en-keyword=Gefitinib kn-keyword=Gefitinib en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR en-keyword=VEGFR kn-keyword=VEGFR en-keyword=PTEN kn-keyword=PTEN END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=116 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=287 end-page=292 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2005 dt-pub=20050131 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title= kn-title=多剤耐性結核と肺非結核性抗酸菌症 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=谷本安 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=安 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=佐久川亮 kn-aut-sei=佐久川 kn-aut-mei=亮 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=木浦勝行 kn-aut-sei=木浦 kn-aut-mei=勝行 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name= en-aut-sei= en-aut-mei= kn-aut-name=谷本光音 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=光音 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯学総合研究所　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯学総合研究所　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯学総合研究所　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯学総合研究所　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 en-keyword=多剤耐性結核菌 kn-keyword=多剤耐性結核菌 en-keyword=DOTS kn-keyword=DOTS en-keyword=非結核性抗酸菌 kn-keyword=非結核性抗酸菌 en-keyword=MAC 症 kn-keyword=MAC 症 en-keyword=M. kansasii 症 kn-keyword=M. kansasii 症 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=121 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=173 end-page=175 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2009 dt-pub=20091201 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Relief of cancer pain in a non small cell lung cancer patient by a polyhedral approach kn-title=多角的アプローチにより癌性疼痛のコントロールを得ることができた非小細胞肺癌の一例 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=We report a case of cancer-related pain relieved by a polyhedral approach. A woman in her late 30s with advanced non small cell lung cancer suffered from back pain caused by the cancer invasion to a thoracic vertebra. She could not take a sufficient dose of opioid due to its adverse effects. A supplementary analgesic was not found to be effective. Palliative radiation was considered desirable, but she could not maintain a dorsal position for irradiation due to back pain. Continuous epidural anesthesia was then introduced. Epidural anesthesia allowed her to lie in a spine position for radiation therapy. After completion of radiation therapy, her back pain was relieved with a low dose of transdermal fentanyl without epidural anesthesia. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name=市原英基 kn-aut-sei=市原 kn-aut-mei=英基 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuokaJunji en-aut-sei=Matsuoka en-aut-mei=Junji kn-aut-name=松岡順治 kn-aut-sei=松岡 kn-aut-mei=順治 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name=瀧川奈義夫 kn-aut-sei=瀧川 kn-aut-mei=奈義夫 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=MatsuzakiTakashi en-aut-sei=Matsuzaki en-aut-mei=Takashi kn-aut-name=松崎孝 kn-aut-sei=松崎 kn-aut-mei=孝 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=KatsuiKuniaki en-aut-sei=Katsui en-aut-mei=Kuniaki kn-aut-name=勝井邦彰 kn-aut-sei=勝井 kn-aut-mei=邦彰 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name=木浦勝行 kn-aut-sei=木浦 kn-aut-mei=勝行 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name=谷本光音 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=光音 aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　緩和医療学講座 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　緩和医療学講座 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　麻酔科蘇生科 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　放射線科 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器・アレルギー内科 en-keyword=癌性疼痛 (cancer-related pain) kn-keyword=癌性疼痛 (cancer-related pain) en-keyword=硬膜外ブロック　(epidural anesthesia) kn-keyword=硬膜外ブロック　(epidural anesthesia) en-keyword=放射線療法 (radiation therapy) kn-keyword=放射線療法 (radiation therapy) END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=123 cd-vols= no-issue=3 article-no= start-page=221 end-page=225 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=20111201 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Acute respiratory distress syndrome following infection of influenza A (H1N1) virus kn-title=新型インフルエンザウイルス（A/H1N1）感染後にARDSを来たした1例 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=A 28-year-old man with a history of mental retardation was admitted to our hospital because of dyspnea, cough and high fever. His SpO(2) level at room-environmental conditions was in the eighties, and his chest radiograph showed diffuse infiltrates in both lungs. He was diagnosed as suffering from influenza A by a rapid influenza virus antigen test. The echocardiogram showed no evidence of left cardiac failure; therefore, his symptoms were consistent with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Oseltamivir was started, and antibiotics were also given because of the possibility of secondary bacterial infection. Due to respiratory failure and low blood pressure, which suggested septic shock, intensive treatments including mechanical ventilation were performed. Corticosteroid therapy was started for ARDS and sepsis, and these therapies improved his respiratory condition. Polymerase chain reaction of his pharyngeal swab revealed that he had influenza A (H1N1). This is the first case of ARDS following infection by influenza A (H1N1) virus in Japan. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=TaniguchiAkihiko en-aut-sei=Taniguchi en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name=谷口暁 kn-aut-sei=谷口 kn-aut-mei=暁 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=MiyaharaNobuaki en-aut-sei=Miyahara en-aut-mei=Nobuaki kn-aut-name=宮原信明 kn-aut-sei=宮原 kn-aut-mei=信明 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=NakaharaAtsushi en-aut-sei=Nakahara en-aut-mei=Atsushi kn-aut-name=中原淳 kn-aut-sei=中原 kn-aut-mei=淳 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakataSaburo en-aut-sei=Takata en-aut-mei=Saburo kn-aut-name=高田三郎 kn-aut-sei=高田 kn-aut-mei=三郎 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=SakugawaRyo en-aut-sei=Sakugawa en-aut-mei=Ryo kn-aut-name=佐久川亮 kn-aut-sei=佐久川 kn-aut-mei=亮 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=NaganoOsamu en-aut-sei=Nagano en-aut-mei=Osamu kn-aut-name=長野修 kn-aut-sei=長野 kn-aut-mei=修 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoYasushi en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Yasushi kn-aut-name=谷本安 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=安 aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= en-aut-name=KanehiroArihiko en-aut-sei=Kanehiro en-aut-mei=Arihiko kn-aut-name=金廣有彦 kn-aut-sei=金廣 kn-aut-mei=有彦 aut-affil-num=8 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name=木浦勝行 kn-aut-sei=木浦 kn-aut-mei=勝行 aut-affil-num=9 ORCID= en-aut-name=UjikeYoshito en-aut-sei=Ujike en-aut-mei=Yoshito kn-aut-name=氏家良人 kn-aut-sei=氏家 kn-aut-mei=良人 aut-affil-num=10 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name=谷本光音 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=光音 aut-affil-num=11 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　救急科 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山赤十字病院　呼吸器内科 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　救急科 affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=8 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=9 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 affil-num=10 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　救急科 affil-num=11 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学病院　呼吸器・アレルギー内科 en-keyword=インフルエンザ Ａ (influenza A) kn-keyword=インフルエンザ Ａ (influenza A) en-keyword=H1N1 kn-keyword=H1N1 en-keyword=急性呼吸促迫症候群 (acute respiratory distress syndrome) kn-keyword=急性呼吸促迫症候群 (acute respiratory distress syndrome) END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=123 cd-vols= no-issue=1 article-no= start-page=13 end-page=18 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2011 dt-pub=20110401 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Effects of vandetanib on lung adenocarcinoma cells harboring epidermal growth factor receptor T790M mutation in vivo kn-title=生体内におけるEGFR T790M遺伝子変異を持つ肺腺癌細胞に対するバンデタニブの効果 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract= en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=IchiharaEiki en-aut-sei=Ichihara en-aut-mei=Eiki kn-aut-name=市原英基 kn-aut-sei=市原 kn-aut-mei=英基 aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=OhashiKadoaki en-aut-sei=Ohashi en-aut-mei=Kadoaki kn-aut-name=大橋圭明 kn-aut-sei=大橋 kn-aut-mei=圭明 aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=TakigawaNagio en-aut-sei=Takigawa en-aut-mei=Nagio kn-aut-name=瀧川奈義夫 kn-aut-sei=瀧川 kn-aut-mei=奈義夫 aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=OsawaMasahiro en-aut-sei=Osawa en-aut-mei=Masahiro kn-aut-name=大澤昌宏 kn-aut-sei=大澤 kn-aut-mei=昌宏 aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= en-aut-name=OginoAtsuko en-aut-sei=Ogino en-aut-mei=Atsuko kn-aut-name=荻野敦子 kn-aut-sei=荻野 kn-aut-mei=敦子 aut-affil-num=5 ORCID= en-aut-name=TanimotoMitsune en-aut-sei=Tanimoto en-aut-mei=Mitsune kn-aut-name=谷本光音 kn-aut-sei=谷本 kn-aut-mei=光音 aut-affil-num=6 ORCID= en-aut-name=KiuraKatsuyuki en-aut-sei=Kiura en-aut-mei=Katsuyuki kn-aut-name=木浦勝行 kn-aut-sei=木浦 kn-aut-mei=勝行 aut-affil-num=7 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=2 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=3 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=4 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=5 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=6 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 affil-num=7 en-affil= kn-affil=岡山大学大学院医歯薬学総合研究科　血液・腫瘍・呼吸器内科学 en-keyword=バンデタニブ kn-keyword=バンデタニブ en-keyword=VEGFR kn-keyword=VEGFR en-keyword=EGFR kn-keyword=EGFR en-keyword=T790M遺伝子変異 kn-keyword=T790M遺伝子変異 en-keyword=肺腺癌 kn-keyword=肺腺癌 END start-ver=1.4 cd-journal=joma no-vol=126 cd-vols= no-issue=2 article-no= start-page=133 end-page=135 dt-received= dt-revised= dt-accepted= dt-pub-year=2014 dt-pub=20140801 dt-online= en-article= kn-article= en-subject= kn-subject= en-title=Treatment for a non-compliant patient with cancer and epilepsy kn-title=癌告知後の精神症状の治療に難渋したてんかん既往のある癌患者の１例 en-subtitle= kn-subtitle= en-abstract= kn-abstract=　A 58-year-old man with cervical esophageal cancer and a history of epilepsy was treated with chemoradiotherapy from May of 2013. When tube feeding was initiated due to aspiration pneumonitis, the patient showed a degree of irritability that affected routine staff work and treatment compliance. We attempted to perform supportive care for maladjustment by the notice, the fast, and the tube feeding, but there was no improvement. After we added carbamazepine, primidone, and propericiazine (which had been canceled at the initiation of the tube feeding) to the patient's intravenous phenytoin, the symptoms and treatment compliance improved significantly. We concluded that the causes of the patient's irritability were maladjustment and his epilepsy. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=MinamiDaisuke en-aut-sei=Minami en-aut-mei=Daisuke
