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.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: To evaluate the impact on mortality of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) treatment of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD). METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 100 RA-ILD patients who visited our tertiary care medical center between 2004 and 2011, identified those treated with an anti-TNF agent, divided patients into non-survivor and survivor groups and evaluated their clinical characteristics and causes of death. RESULTS: A total of 24 RA-ILD patients received anti-TNF therapy, of whom six died (25%). Mean age at initiation of anti-TNF therapy was significantly higher in the nonsurvivor versus survivor group (76 years [range, 66 to 85] vs. 64 years [range, 50 to 81], respectively; p = 0.043). The mean duration of anti-TNF treatment in the non-survivor group was shorter (7 months [range, 2 to 14] vs. 23 months [range, 2 to 58], respectively; p = 0.030). The duration of anti-TNF therapy in all nonsurviving patients was < 12 months. Pulmonary function test results at ILD diagnosis, and cumulative doses of disease-modifying drugs and steroids, did not differ between groups. Five of the six deaths (83%) were related to lung disease, including two diffuse alveolar hemorrhages, two cases of acute exacerbation of ILD, and one of pneumonia. The sixth patient died of septic shock following septic arthritis of the knee. CONCLUSIONS: Lung complications can occur within months of initial anti-TNF treatment in older RA-ILD patients; therefore, anti-TNF therapy should be used with caution in these patients.
