Advances in Lung Cancer (ALC) , 2020, DOI: 10.4236/alc.2020.93005
Abstract: Introduction: Apart from smoking as the known risk factor for lung cancer, recent developments implicate occupational exposure to carcinogens, indoor air pollution and dietary factors as other causative agents. In our study, we have analyzed the clinical and pathological profile of lung cancer patients treated at our center over a period of 8 years. Aim: To find the demographic and clinicopathological profile of lung cancer patients admitted to the oncology unit. Methods: This retrospective record based analysis includes a cohort of 1248 patients diagnosed with lung cancer, at a tertiary cancer care center in Bangalore, South India. This study includes data of patients admitted during the period 2010 to 2018, retrieved from the Hospital’s Electronic Medical Records (EMR). Their demographic profile, clinical correlates, radiological profile and diagnostic details were studied. Benign tumours, malignant pleural disease and sarcomatoid tumors were excluded from this study. Results: Adenocarcinoma (AC) was detected among 70.4% of patients, Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) among 15.3% and Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) among 14.3% of lung cancer admissions. Male to female ratio was 2.95:1. It was found that the median age of lung cancer patients was 61 years. >60% of lung cancer patients were from the 51 - 70 year age-group. Across the three types of cancers among the patients in Stage 3B to 4 strata, >35% received palliative chemotherapy and >20% received palliative chemotherapy + radiation. Conclusion: In our study, AC is the most common histological subtype (>70%) of lung cancer. The outcome of lung cancer patients can be considerably impacted by addressing risk factors through preventive measures implemented in the community.

Journal of Cancer Therapy (JCT) , 2013, DOI: 10.4236/jct.2013.48A007
Abstract:

In 2009, we demonstrated that a peptide, which we named “Peptide A”, derived from the extracellular domain of T-cell leukemia translocation-associated gene (TCTA) protein, inhibited both RANKL-induced human osteoclastogenesis and pit formation of mature human osteoclasts. Here, we examined the effect of Peptide A on the cell proliferation of cell lines of small-cell lung carcinoma, breast cancer, and prostate cancer: RERF-LC-MA, MCF-7, and PC-3, respectively. Peptide A inhibited the proliferation of RERF-LC-MA, but not MCF-7 or PC-3. TCTA protein was immunohistologically detected in RERF-LC-MA and MCF-7. Thus, Peptide A may provide a novel strategy for the therapy of the patients with small-cell lung carcinoma, especially with bone metastasis. In addition, Peptide A may be useful for the treatment of various cancer patients with bone metastasis.

Abstract: Combined small cell lung carcinoma is an uncommon entity and constitutes 1-3% of all cases with small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC). We reported three cases of combined small cell lung carcinoma. All the cases were male (ages: 77, 60 and 55 years, respectively) with a history of heavy smoking and presented with lung masses. Additionally, first case had been a history of asbestos exposure for 5-6 years. Histopathological examination of biopsy specimens revealed a rare variant of small cell lung carcinoma ie combined small cell lung carcinoma. In addition to histological evidence of small cell lung carcinoma, the first biopsy specimen also contained areas of squamous cell carcinoma and the other two biopsy specimens revealed adenocarcinomatous cells. Immunohistochemical findings supported the diagnosis. Combined small cell lung carcinoma is very rare, but is nevertheless a well described diagnostic category among lung cancers. In this case report, because of the rarity of these tumors, we discussed combined small cell lung carcinoma in view of the literature.

Abstract: Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a lung cancer histological subtype unusual in its favorable response to cytotoxic chemotherapy. Life-threatening manifestations at presentation are rarely reported and should be an important clinical concern. We report a case of a 63-year-old man presenting with rapid-onset refractory severe thrombocytopenia, development of massive hemoptysis, and death from respiratory failure. This case provides clinicians a reference for this unusual presentation and carries clinical implications for managing SCLC patients

Abstract: Background and objective Small cell lung cancer combined with squamous cell carcinoma are rare. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinicopathological characteristics and treatment, and explored the prognostic factors of this disease. Methods Between January 2004 and December 2012, 58 patients with cytopathologically confirmed small cell lung cancers combined with squamous cell carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to calculate the survival rate, and Log-rank test was used to examine differences between arms. The Cox regression model was used to analyze the independent factors affecting the overall survival (OS). Results The OS of the 58 patients was 22.7 months with a range of 0.3 to 124.3 months. In univariate analysis, Karnofsky performance score before treatment, extensive disease, tumor stage were the considered prognostic factors affecting the OS rate (P<0.05). Cox multivariate analysis showed that only the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage was the independent prognostic factor (P=0.019). The majority of the patients received multimodality therapy and chemotherapy was the main treatment. Distant metastasis was the main reasonfor the treatment failure. Conclusion Combined therapy with chemotherapy as the main treatment should be adopted in therapeutic regimen of the patients with small cell lung cancers combined with squamous cell carcinoma. TNM stage was the independent prognostic factor influencing the OS.

Pakistan Veterinary Journal , 2011,
Abstract: A seven-year-old male, an intact miniature Schnauzer dog with history of vomiting, abdominal distention, anorexia, and dyspnea was referred for further evaluation and treatment. Thoracic radiographs showed the well marginated solitary mass with soft density in the right caudal lung field, and abdominal radiographs showed signs of ascites, such as abdominal distention and moderate serosal detail loss. On ultrasonograph and computed tomograph, it was observed that the mass compressed the caudal vena cava (CVC) and adhered to the heart. Exploratory thoracotomy was performed, and then it was showed that mass adhered heart, CVC, and diaphragm. The mass was fully resected although adhered part of CVC could not be completely resected. On histopathological findings, the mass was diagnosed as small-cell anaplastic carcinoma.

Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine , 2012, DOI: 10.4328
Abstract: Aim: In this study, the safety and tolerability of paclitaxel and carboplatin (PC) regimen in elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was investigated. Material and Method: Elderly patients (ages ≥70 years) who received PC for stage III (n=11) or IV (n=34) NSCLC were evaluated retrospectively. Results: There were 43 males and 2 females, with a median age of 75.5 (range, 70-82). The response rate was 40%. The median overall survival time and progression-free survival time was 13 months and 8.5 months, respectively. One-year survival rate was 51%. Treatment was well tolerated by the patients. The most frequent side effect observed was grade 3 or 4 neutropenia (57.7%). There was no treatment-related death. Discussion: PC regimen may be a good alternative for the treatment of elderly patients with advanced NSCLC.

Clinics and Practice , 2012, DOI: 10.4081/cp.2012.e62
Abstract: Subcutaneous swelling as first clinical presentation of small cell lung carcinoma is uncommon and rarely reported in literature. This case highlights a rare presentation in which subcutaneous swelling was the first clinical manifestation of a small cell carcinoma of lung which also had metastasis to rib bone, muscle and pleural involvement as pleural effusion. We describe the case of a 64-year-old male patient who presented with dyspnea, pleuritic pain, loss of weight and nodule on his anterior chest, back and left arm suspicious of lipoma. Biopsies revealed small cell carcinoma of lung. This case demonstrates the meticulous work up of subcutaneous swelling in the clinical scenario of breathlessness, chest pain and loss of weight.
