Abstract

Introduction: Lung cancer has the highest incidence and mortality rate, which contributes to approximately 2.2 million cancer cases (11.4%) of total cancers worldwide. More than 70% of lung cancer cases present in the late, non-operable stage. Anemia is one of the conditions that could precipitate cancers and affect the patient's clinical presentation, including tissue oxygenation, organ function, and quality of life. It could also increase the risk of bleeding, post-operative mortality, and iron absorption rate in the case of ineffective erythropoiesis. All of these could affect the prognostic factor of the cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the severity of anemia on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study involving 80 subjects of NSCLC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy from January 2018 to December 2020. Subjects were divided into two groups (39 patients in the normal group and 41 patients in the anemia group). Results: The mean pre-treatment hemoglobin (Hb) was 10.55 ± 1.25 g/dL in NSCLC patients with anemia. The bone metastasis, OS, and PFS values of the normal and anemia groups were significant (p = 0.008; p = 0.002; p = 0.27). Anemia was significantly related to OS (r = 0.146, p = 0.000) and PFS (r = 0.264, p = 0.000) in NSCLC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. Conclusion: Higher severity of anemia can reduce OS and PFS in NSCLC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract

Introduction: Targeted therapy, particularly epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), is the first-line treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, drug resistance has grown in the last few decades. This study compared the progression time of lung cancer patients treated with first- and second-generation EGFR-TKI. Methods: Based on cytology and histological results, this cross-sectional study included 1,008 participants diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) from 11 Indonesian Respiratory Centers. Every three months, the response to treatment was assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) criteria in 1.1. Significant differences in the clinical features of the three TKI treatment groups were identified using logistic regression analysis, the median time to disease progression was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier technique, and independent prognostic factors related to the time to progression (TTP) were assessed using Cox proportional hazards regression. Results: This study examined 505 patients, the majority of whom were females (50.9%), never smoked (59.8%), diagnosed at an advanced stage (99.2%), and had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scale of 0-1 (83.2%). Approximately 98.1% of patients were treated with afatinib (14.8%), erlotinib (18.6%), and gefitinib (66.1%) due to common mutations. The groups did not differ significantly (p>0.05). The median overall survival (OS) rate was 9 months. The time to LUAD progression in lung cancer was significantly impacted by poor performance (p=0.001). Conclusion: Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment can only prolong the TTP of LUAD by up to 9 months, and the performance scale when receiving the EGFR-TKI significantly affects the prognosis.

Abstract

Introduction: In vitro and animal model studies have shown that Nigella sativa reduces cancer cell proliferation and improves chemotherapy effectiveness. Cellular activation triggers the production of IFN-γ by natural killer (NK) cells. This study examined the effect of Nigella sativa supplementation on IFN-γ levels and quality of life in lung cancer patients before and after interferon therapy. Methods: This study used a non-equivalent control experimental design involving 21 lung cancer patients undergoing initial chemotherapy at Dr. Saiful Anwar General Hospital, Malang, in 2023. The patients were divided into two groups: one group received standard chemotherapy, and another group received a combination of chemotherapy and Nigella sativa supplementation at a dose of 2x500 mg for nine weeks. The effects of this intervention were assessed by measuring IFN-γ levels using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit and evaluating quality of life using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Core Quality of Life (QLQ-C30) questionnaire before and after the fourth cycle of chemotherapy. Results: The results showed a significant increase in IFN-γ levels in the combination group undergoing chemotherapy and receiving Nigella sativa supplementation (6140.44±2233.89) compared to the standard chemotherapy group (3827.08±1722.79), with a p-value of 0.015. Quality of life improved in both groups, with scores of 53.70±6.05 before and 65.74±14.70 after chemotherapy (p=0.000). Conclusion: This study found that Nigella sativa supplementation can enhance IFN-γ levels and quality of life in lung cancer patients after four chemotherapy treatment cycles. These findings indicated that Nigella sativa could be a beneficial supplement for lung cancer patients.

Abstract

Background: Mediastinal germ cell tumors are uncommon, representing less than 1% of all malignancies. They mostly occur in young men after puberty and have a poor prognosis with over all long term survival rate 42%. Case Report: We reported a case report in Saiful Anwar Malang Hospital, Indonesia, a young man, 26 years old with an anterior mediastinum tumor and VCSS The CT scan of the chest showed an anterosuperior mediastinal mass which compress the superior vena cava. The result from transthoracic FNAB with USG guidance showed an extragonadal germ cell tumor which resemble an Embryonal Carcinoma from mediastinum. The AFP serum level was elevated. Patient underwent a radiotherapy and a surgical debulking. The biopsy showed an Endodermal Sinus Tumor (Yolk Sac). Immunohistochemical stain for cytokeratin was positive in the tumor cells while stain for CD30 was negative. These were confirming the diagnosis of primary mediastinal yolk sac tumor. Patient received a combination chemotherapy for a total 6 cycles.Conclusion: Some procedures like biopsy, tumor marker, immunohistochemical stain, could differentiate the subtype of mediastinal germ cell tumor. The multimodality treatment by combining chemotherapy with surgical therapy or radiotherapy could increase the survival outcome of patients.

Abstract

Background: Teratomas are tumors originate from germ cells, consist of well differentiated tissue from more than one of three layers of embryonic cells: ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm. Teratomas are generally slow-growing and asymptomatic. Mediastinal teratoma is the most common extra-gonadal germ cell tumor. Superior vena cava syndrome and bilateral paramaligant pleural effusion are complications which can occur in mediastinal teratomas. Case: We report a 37-year-old woman presented with shortness of breath since 1 month before admission, chest pain, cough, weight loss,  swolen of face, neck, and right arm. Chest x-ray showed mediastinal tumor. However, no mediastinal tumor had been detected by chest x-ray to examine her heart disease 3 years earlier. Chest computed tomography scan showed anterosuperior mediastinal tumor surrounding great blood vessels and bilateral pleural effusion. Computed tomography guided transthoracic fine needle aspiration biopsy revealed  tumor containing mature squamous epithelial component. Patient underwent open biopsy by sternotomy and histological assessment confirmed the diagnosis as mediastinal teratoma with vascular lesions predominantly resembling vascular tumor.Conclusion: Establishing the diagnosis of mediastinal teratoma is challenging and it requires multi modality approaches.  Keywords: Mediastinal teratoma, vena cava superior syndrome, bilateral paramalignant pleural effusion.

Abstract

Background: Adenocarcinoma is the most common Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) in non-smokers in Indonesia. It often metastasizes in multiple sites. Metastasis is a negative predictor for prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma. In this covid pandemic era we present a case of a 30-years-old woman with adenocarcinoma and multiple-sites metastasis, and Coronavirus-19 Disease (COVID-19). Case: A 30-year-old woman came to our hospital with multiple complaints of hearing loss, visual loss, and occasional shortness of breath. The patient had a history of wild-type EGFR adenocarcinoma and has been treated with 4 cycles of gemcitabine. She also presented with a lump in her neck. Further examination revealed multiple metastasis tumours in her brain, right eye, neck, and spine. Pleural fluid examination also showed a malignant pleural effusion. Nasopharyngeal swab using reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (rt-PCR) method revealed that she also suffers from COVID-19 with positive swab result. Despite adequate treatment, she rapidly deteriorates and passed away in hospital. Discussion: Management in this patient is complex due to multiple complications and limitation of management given in COVID-19 isolation ward. She presented with multiple equally complicated metastasis, in which treatment priority should be carefully assessed. Despite treatment by multiple specialists, her problems still persist and proved to be fatal. Conclusion: Although metastasis is common in adenocarcinoma, multiple metastasis is uncommon, and this case highlights the need of careful management priority in such patients in COVID-19 pandemic setting.

Abstract

Introduction: Hemoptysis is a symptom of lung disease, could be caused by lung infections, structural disorders of the lung, malignancy or disorders from outside of the lung. One of the pulmonary intervention for hemoptysis is embolization with a success rate > 70%, but the recurrence rate reaches 10-55%. The prognosis is poor depending on the amount of bleeding (untreated cases can have a mortality risk of over 50%), etiology and presence of recurrences. Case Illustration: A 49-year-old Male came to the policlinic with recurrent hemoptysis for a year. Non-smoker. History of Lung Tuberculosis (TB), completed treatment 15 years ago. Imaging result showed widening of the right subcostal artery, right posterior intercostal artery, bronchiectasis, active lung tuberculosis and left pulmonary emphysema. First embolization was done during Anti-Tuberculosis Drug (ATD) treatment for 6 months. Symptom of hemoptysis reappeared, then second embolization and fiber optic bronchoscopy (FOB) was performed. From the evaluation, he was diagnosed with infected bronchiectasis and PTLD, therefore given antibiotic medications for 2 weeks. Discussion: Embolization had been done twice in this case, no significant result. Based on literature, recurrent hemoptysis can still occur with a percentage about 10-55% after embolization and in this case, it might be caused by previous lung structural disorder and lung infections (Lung TB and Infected bronchiectasis). Conclusion: Although embolization has a success rate of > 70% for hemoptysis treatment, recurrence can still occur and highly dependent on the cause itself and patient's previous lung condition.
