Purpose
The addition of immune checkpoint inhibitors to chemotherapy has improved survival outcomes in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). However, their real-world effectiveness remains unknown. Therefore, we investigated the effectiveness of atezolizumab plus chemotherapy in ES-SCLC in actual clinical settings.
Materials and Methods
In this multicenter prospective cohort study, patients with ES-SCLC receiving or scheduled to receive atezolizumab in combination with etoposide and carboplatin were enrolled between June 2021 and August 2022. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS) and the 1-year overall survival (OS) rate.
Results
A total of 100 patients with ES-SCLC were enrolled from seven centers. Median age was 69 years, and 6% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) ≥ 2. The median PFS was 6.0 months, the 1-year OS rate was 62.2%, and the median OS was 13.5 months. An ECOG PS of 2-3 and progressive disease as the best response were poor prognostic factors for PFS, while an ECOG PS of 2-3 and brain metastasis were associated with poor prognosis for OS. In addition, consolidative thoracic radiotherapy was found to be an independent favorable prognostic factor for OS (hazard ratio, 0.336; p=0.021). Grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 7% of patients, with treatment-related deaths occurring in 2% of patients.
Conclusion
We provided evidence of the favorable real-world effectiveness and safety of atezolizumab plus chemotherapy in ES-SCLC patients, including in the elderly and those with poor ECOG PS. Additional consolidative thoracic radiotherapy may also benefit ES-SCLC patients.

Combination of the LARS1 Inhibitor, BC-LI-0186 with a MEK1/2 Inhibitor Enhances the Anti-Tumor Effect in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer
Sang Hoon Lee, Eun Young Kim, Jung Min Han, Gyoonhee Han, Yoon Soo Chang
Cancer Res Treat. 2023;55(3):851-864.   Published online March 20, 2023
DOI: https://doi.org/10.4143/crt.2022.1527
AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Purpose
The mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) regulates cell growth and proliferation by growth factor coordination and amino acid availability. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase 1 (LARS1) senses the intracellular leucine concentration and mediates amino acid-induced activation of mTORC1. Thus, LARS1 inhibition could be useful in cancer treatment. However, the fact that mTORC1 can be stimulated by various growth factors and amino acids suggests that LARS1 inhibition alone has limitations in inhibiting cell growth and proliferation. We investigated the combined effects of BC-LI-0186, a LARS1 inhibitor, and trametinib, an MEK inhibitor, on non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Materials and Methods
Protein expression and phosphorylation were observed by immunoblotting, and genes differentially expressed between BC-LI-0186–sensitive and –resistant cells were identified by RNA sequencing. The combined effect of the two drugs was inferred from the combination index values and a xenograft model.
Results
LARS1 expression was positively correlated with mTORC1 in NSCLC cell lines. BC-LI-0186 treatment of A549 and H460 cells maintained in media supplemented with fetal bovine serum revealed paradoxical phosphorylation of S6 and activation of mitogen- activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. Compared with BC-LI-0186–sensitive cells, –resistant cells showed enrichment of the MAPK gene set. The combination of trametinib and BC-LI-0186 inhibited the phosphorylation of S6, MEK, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase and their synergistic effects were confirmed in a mouse xenograft model.
Conclusion
The combination of BC-LI-0186 and trametinib inhibited the non-canonical mTORC1-activating function of LARS1. Our study demonstrated a new therapeutic approach for NSCLC without targetable driver mutations.

AbstractAbstract PDFSupplementary MaterialPubReaderePub
Purpose
Although osimertinib is the standard-of-care treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation–positive non–small cell lung cancer, real-world evidence on the efficacy of osimertinib is not enough to reflect the complexity of the entire course of treatment. Herein, we report on the use of osimertinib in patients with EGFR T790M mutation–positive non–small cell lung cancer who had previously received EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in Korea.
Materials and Methods
Patients with confirmed EGFR T790M after disease progression of prior EGFR-TKI were enrolled and administered osimertinib 80 mg daily. The primary effectiveness outcome was progression-free survival, with time-to-treatment discontinuation, treatment and adverse effects leading to treatment discontinuation, and overall survival being the secondary endpoints.
Results
A total of 558 individuals were enrolled, and 55.2% had investigator-assessed responses. The median progression-free survival was 14.2 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 13.0 to 16.4), and the median time-to-treatment discontinuation was 15.0 months (95% CI, 14.1 to 15.9). The median overall survival was 36.7 months (95% CI, 30.9 to not reached). The benefit with osimertinib was consistent regardless of the age, sex, smoking history, and primary EGFR mutation subtype. However, hepatic metastases at the time of diagnosis, the presence of plasma EGFR T790M, and the shorter duration of prior EGFR-TKI treatment were poor predictors of osimertinib treatment. Ten patients (1.8%), including three with pneumonitis, had to discontinue osimertinib due to severe adverse effects.
Conclusion
Osimertinib demonstrated its clinical effectiveness and survival benefit for EGFR T790M mutation–positive in Korean patients with no new safety signals.

Is There a Role for Adjuvant Therapy in R0 Resected Gallbladder Cancer?: A Propensity Score-Matched Analysis
Se-Il Go, Young Saing Kim, In Gyu Hwang, Eun Young Kim, Sung Yong Oh, Jun Ho Ji, Haa-Na Song, Se Hoon Park, Joon Oh Park, Jung Hun Kang
Cancer Res Treat. 2016;48(4):1274-1285.   Published online February 12, 2016

AbstractAbstract PDFPubReaderePub
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the role of adjuvant therapy in stage I-III gallbladder cancer (GBC) patients who have undergone R0 resection.
Materials and Methods
Clinical data were collected on 441 consecutive patients who underwent R0 resection for stage I-III GBC. Eligible patients were classified into adjuvant therapy and surveillance only groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) between the two groups was performed, adjusting clinical factors.
Results
In total, 84 and 279 patients treated with adjuvant therapy and followed up with surveillance only, respectively, were included in the analysis. Before PSM, the 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) rate was lower in the adjuvant therapy group than in the surveillance only group (50.8% vs. 74.8%, p < 0.001), although there was no statistically significant difference in the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate (66.2% vs. 79.5%, p=0.089). After the PSM, baseline characteristics became comparable and there were no differences in the 5-year RFS (50.8% vs. 64.8%, p=0.319) and OS (66.2% vs. 70.4%, p=0.703) rates between the two groups.
Conclusion
The results suggest that fluoropyrimidine-based adjuvant therapy is not indicated in stage I-III GBC patients who have undergone R0 resection.
