Lung cancer is the cancer with the highest incidence and mortality rate worldwide. In addition to the diversified treatment and prolonged lifespan in view of the development of medical technology, the side effect of medicine should not be ignored. Drug-induced interstitial lung disease (DI-ILD) is also commonly encountered during this process, and ILD triggered by the treatment of lung cancer characterized by the inflammation and scarring of lung tissue after the antitumor treatment in lung cancer leads to a poor prognosis and high mortality. The diagnosis and treatment of ILD caused by anti-lung cancer agents remains challenging in clinical settings and requires joint efforts from multidisciplinary team (MDT). This review systematically updates the epidemiology, molecular pathogenesis, genomics/genetics study, diagnosis and treatment of ILD related to anti-lung cancer agents. By the integration of the latest evidences, the paper offers clinical work references for early diagnosis of ILD related to anti-lung cancer agents to enhance the survival and quality of life of the lung cancer patients.

Both carcinoembryonic antigen and CA19-9 are considered as predictive markers of intestinal cancer recurrence and metastasis.In addition,CA19-9 elevation is considered as a predictive marker of connective tissue disease-related interstitial lung disease.The incidence of oxaliplatin and capecitabine-associated interstitial lung disease is low,and there is no report about CA19-9 as a predictive marker of oxaliplatin and capecitabine-associated interstitial lung disease.This paper reports a case of interstitial lung disease with CA19-9 elevation caused by oxaliplatin and capecitabine adjuvant therapy for ileocecal carcinoma.The change trend of serum carcinoembryonic antigen in this patient was consistent with tumor recurrence and metastasis,and that of serum CA19-9 was consistent with the severity of interstitial lung disease.Therefore,CA19-9 elevation after intestinal cancer surgery does not necessarily indicate the tumor recurrence and metastasis,and attention should be paid to the possibility of oxaliplatin and capecitabine-associated interstitial lung disease.

A 54-year-old, non-smoking woman was diagnosed as stage ⅣB adenocarcinoma with widespread bone metastasis (cT4N2M1c) in the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Immunohistochemistry result showed the presence of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangement; next-generation sequencing (NGS) indicated EML4-ALK fusion (E6:A20) with concurrent CCDC148-ALK (C1:A20), PKDCC-ALK (Pintergenic:A20)and VIT-ALK (V15:A20) fusions. After 32 weeks of alectinib treatment, the patient complained cough and exertional chest distress but had no sign of infection. Computed tomography (CT) showed bilateral diffuse ground glass opacities, suggesting a diagnosis of alectinib-related interstitial lung disease (ILD). Following corticosteroid treatment and discontinuation of alectinib, clinical presentations and CT scan gradually improved, but the primary lung lesions enlarged during the regular follow-up. The administration of crizotinib was then initiated and the disease was stable for 25 months without recurrence of primary lung lesions and ILD.

Objective: To identify the risk factors and clinical features associated with the interstitial pneumonia in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (RCHOP) or rituximab, cyclophosphamide, liposomal doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone (RCDOP) regimens. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 836 patients with DLBCL admitted to the Department of Hematology at Ruijin Hospital from 2013 to 2018. Among them, 114 patients were treated with RCDOP regimen. Using the method of propensity score matching according to age, gender, IPI score of patients, 114 patients treated with RCHOP regimen were selected as controls. Clinical data, including comorbidities, gender, age, B symptoms, international prognostic index (IPI) score, disease stage, serum lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and β(2) microglobulin (β(2)-MG) level were collected and the risk factors of interstitial pneumonia were further analyzed. Results: The interstitial pneumonia developed more frequently in RCDOP group than RCHOP group (28.95% vs 2.60%, P<0.01) . As the dose of liposomal doxorubicin elevated from 25-30 mg/m(2) to 35-40 mg/m(2), the incidence of interstitial pneumonia accordingly increased from 17.30% to 38.71% (P<0.05) . By multivariate analysis, disease stage was an independent factor of interstitial pneumonitis. Conclusions: Front line regimens containing liposomal doxorubicin in DLBCL patients link to a higher incidence of dose-dependent interstitial pneumonia. Prevention and surveillance should be emphasized in future studies.

From 2006 to 2011, an outbreak of a particular type of childhood interstitial lung disease occurred in Korea. The condition was intractable and progressed to severe respiratory failure, with a high mortality rate. Moreover, in several familial cases, the disease affected young women and children simultaneously. Epidemiologic, animal, and post-interventional studies identified the cause as inhalation of humidifier disinfectants. Here, we report a 4-year-old girl who suffered from severe progressive respiratory failure. She could survive by 100 days of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support and finally, underwent heart-lung transplantation. This is the first successful pediatric heart-lung transplantation carried out in Korea.

PURPOSE: Rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) is the standard chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. Although febrile neutropenia (FN) is the major toxicity of this regimen, non-neutropenic fever (NNF) becomes an emerging issue. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed clinical features and outcomes of febrile complications from 397 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL who were registered in the prospective cohort study. They had completed R-CHOP between September 2008 and January 2013. RESULTS: Thirty-nine patients (9.8%) had NNF whereas 160 patients (40.3%) had FN. Among them, 24 patients (6.0%) had both during their treatment. Compared to frequent occurrence of initial FN after the first cycle (> 50% of total events), more than 80% of NNF cases occurred after the third cycle. Interstitial pneumonitis comprised the highest proportion of NNF cases (54.8%), although the causative organism was not identified in the majority of cases. Thus, pathogen was identified in a limited number of patients (n=9), and Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PJP) was the most common. Considering that interstitial pneumonitis without documented pathogen could be clinically diagnosed with PJP, the overall rate of PJP including probable cases was 4.5% (18 cases from 397 patients). The NNF-related mortality rate was 10.3% (four deaths from 39 patients with NNF) while the FN-related mortality rate was only 1.3%. CONCLUSION: NNF was observed with incidence of 10% during R-CHOP treatment, and showed different clinical manifestations with respect to the time of initial episode and causes.
