Abstrakt: | Purpose. Consolidation with durvalumab is standard of care in the management of unresectable stage 3 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) postchemoradiation, and pneumonitis is an independent potential treatment complication of both treatment strategies. This study seeks to determine the timing of radiation pneumonitis (RP) by receipt of durvalumab. In addition, we reviewed the preventative strategies guided by pathophysiology of pneumonitis. Methods. We identified patients with unresectable Stage 3 NSCLC who developed grade ≥2 RP after chemoradiotherapy. Time-to-RP was defined from date of completion of radiotherapy to date of radiological diagnosis of RP and accompanying clinical symptoms. Early RP was defined as RP within 2 months of completion of radiotherapy. Differences in time-to-RP by receipt of durvalumab were evaluated using Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Differences in those who had early vs late RP by receipt of durvalumab was evaluated using Fisher's exact test. Logistic regression was used to evaluate patient and treatment factors associated with early RP. Results. Of the 144 patients with Stage 3 NSCLC who had definitive chemoradiotherapy, 31 (22%) developed grade ≥2 RP and were included in the study. There was one patient with grade 5 RP. The median age of the cohort was 67 years (range 41–87). The mean lung dose, V5Gy, and V20Gy were 15.8Gy (SD = 1.56), 60.14% (SD 2.73), and 29.96% (SD 1.82), respectively. Twelve (39%) patients received durvalumab. The median time-to-RP was 3.4 months (range: 1.7–7.2) and 2.3 months (range: 0.6–9.6) in patients who had durvalumab and no durvalumab, respectively (P = 0.01). 83% (10/12) of patients who had durvalumab and 58% (11/19) of patients who did not have durvalumab had late RP (P = 0.14). No other patient and treatment factors were associated with early RP. Conclusion. Patients on durvalumab may have late-onset RP; therefore, further studies with larger cohort of patients and development of new predictive models that incorporate evolving management are needed should preventative strategies of RP be considered in routine clinical practice.
