ÖZ
Amaç
İlerlemiş akciğer kanseri hastalarının çoğunda, kemoradyoterapiyle orta düzeyde bir cevap alınsa da sonuçlar yüz güldürücü değildir. Akciğer kanserinde, lenfosit yüzdeleri ve interlökin-6 (IL-6) sitokin düzeylerinin yaşam oranları ile anlamlı düzeyde korelasyon gösterdiği bildirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, lenfosit yüzdeleri ve IL-6 düzeylerinin genel sağkalım ve progresyonsuz sağkalım üzerine etkisini araştırdık.
Yöntemler
Çalışmaya akciğer kanseri tanısı almış ve radyoterapi görmüş 142 hasta dahil edildi. Hastalar cinsiyet, yaş, klinik evre, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performans durumu, patoloji ve radyoterapi öncesi lenfosit yüzdeleri ve IL-6 sitokin seviyelerine göre incelendi. Sonuçlar ayrıca radyoterapi dozu, tedavi bölgeleri ve yanıt oranlarına göre analiz edildi.
Bulgular
Lenfosit yüzdesi >%15 olan hastalar lenfosit yüzdesi ≤%15 olan hastalarla karşılaştırıldığında, medyan genel sağ kalım sırasıyla 18 ay ve 7 ay, progresyonsuz sağ kalım sırasıyla 17 ve 5 ay olarak bulundu ve medyan genel sağ kalım ve progresyonsuz sağ kalım lenfosit yüzdesi >%15 olanlarda anlamlı şekilde daha yüksekti (p=0,007 ve p=0,006). IL-6 ≤7 pg/mL olan hastalar >7 pg/mL olan hastalarla karşılaştırıldığında, medyan genel sağ kalım 14 ve 7 ay, progresyonsuz sağ kalım 9 ve 4 ay idi ve medyan genel sağ kalım ve progresyonsuz sağ kalım IL-6 ≤7 pg/mL olan hastalarda anlamlı derecede daha yüksekti (p=0,011 ve p=0,01).
Sonuç
İlerlemiş akciğer kanseri hastalarında, radyoterapi öncesi lenfosit sayımı ve IL-6 düzeyleri önemli prognostik biyobelirteçlerdir ve bu testler hasta takibinde ve farklı tedavi stratejileri geliştirmek için kullanılabilir.
