Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Cancer-associated macrophage-like cells (CAMLs) are a potential peripheral blood biomarker for disease progression. This study used data from a phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate prognostic utility of CAMLs for locally advanced non-small-cell lung cancer treated with definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and atezolizumab (DETERRED; ClinicalTrials.gov NCT02525757). PATIENTS AND METHODS:Sample collection occurred at baseline (T0), during CRT (T1), at end of CRT (T2), and at first follow-up (T3). CAMLs were captured and quantified by the CellSieve system using multiplex immunostaining. Giant CAMLs were defined as characteristic CAMLs ≥ 50 μm. Kaplan-Meier methodology estimated progression-free survival, distant failure-free survival, relapse-free survival, and overall survival at 30 months. RESULTS:Thirty-nine patients were evaluated between December 2015 and March 2018. Median follow-up was 27 months. Most disease was stage III (85%) and comprised squamous-cell carcinoma (38%) or adenocarcinoma (59%). In total, 267 blood samples were analyzed. Giant CAMLs were identified in 57%, 60%, 64%, and 63% of patients at T0, T1, T2, and T3, respectively. Patients with giant CAMLs at T3, occurring at a median of 30 days after completion of CRT, had significantly worse distant failure-free survival (hazard ratio [HR] 4.9, P = .015), progression-free survival (HR 2.5, P = .025), recurrence-free survival (HR 2.4, P = .036), and overall survival (HR 3.5, P = .034) compared to patients with small or no CAMLs. CONCLUSIONS:Presence of giant CAMLs after CRT completion was associated with development of metastatic disease and poorer survival despite the use of maintenance immunotherapy. Monitoring CAMLs may help risk-stratify patients for adaptive treatment strategies.
