Comparison of Segmentectomy Versus Lobectomy for Lung Adenocarcinoma ≤ 2cm With Micropapillary and Solid Subtype Positive by Frozen Section: A Prospective, Observational, Multicenter Cohort Study

This study aims to evaluate the superiority in recurrence-free survival of lobectomy compared with segmentectomy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma ≤ 2 cm with micropapillary and solid subtype positive by intraoperative frozen sections.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

At present, the technology of intraoperative frozen section has gradually matured, which can diagnose the benign and malignant tumors and guide the resection strategy for peripheral small-sized lung adenocarcinoma. Travis et al. reported high specificity of intraoperative frozen section in the identification of micropapillary components, confirming that intraoperative frozen section may guide the selection of surgical procedures. However, there is still little evidence whether segmentectomy is appropriate for invasive adenocarcinoma without micropapillary patterns. This prospective and multi-center study was aimed to evaluate the superiority in recurrence free survival and overall survival of lobectomy compared with segmentectomy in patients with lung adenocarcinoma (≤ 2 cm) containing positive micropapillary components.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

clinical stage IA patients with Lung Adenocarcinoma ≤ 2cm as well as micropapillary and solid Subtype positive (>5%) by frozen sections

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Tumor size ≤ 2 cm;
  • Solitary tumor and located in the outer third of the lung field;
  • Preoperative CT indicated that the nodules were single nodules or Concomitant nodules was less than minimal invasive adenocarcinoma;
  • Intraoperative frozen section confirmed invasive lung adenocarcinoma and with micropapillary and solid patterns positive (>5%);
  • Confirmation of R0 status by intraoperative frozen section analysis;

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The tumor is close to the hilum, which cannot perform segmentectomy ;
  • Patients suspected of lymph node positive by preoperative examination, including CT scans and mediastinal lymph node biopsy;
  • Evidence revealed locally advanced or metastatic disease;
  • Intraoperative exploration revealed accidental pleural dissemination.
  • Patients with severe damage to heart, liver and kidney function (grade 3 ~ 4, Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) over 3 times the normal upper limit, Cr over the normal upper limit).
  • Patients concomitant with other malignant tumors；
  • Patients had prior chemotherapy, radiotherapy or molecular targeted therapy for this malignancy.
  • History of severe heart disease, heart failure, myocardial infarction within the past 6 months.
  • The patients who were not suitable for inclusion by researchers' evaluation.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Lobectomy with systemic lymph node dissection
lobectomy with hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection is performed. Systemic or selective lymph node dissection is mandatory, and nodal sampling is not allowed. At least three stations of mediastinal lymph node from 2R, 4R, 7, 8, 9 for the right side and 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 for the left side, respectively.
Procedure: Lobectomy with systemic lymph node dissection
Lobectomy with hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection is performed. Segmentectomy with hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection is performed. Systemic or selective lymph node dissection is mandatory, and nodal sampling is not allowed. At least three stations of mediastinal lymph node from 2R, 4R, 7, 8, 9 for the right side and 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 for the left side, respectively. The distance from the dissection margin to the tumor edge must be evaluated intra-operatively. If the distance is either less than the maximum tumor diameter or 20 mm, the absence of cancer cells in the resection margin must be histologically or cytologically confirmed before finishing surgery.
Segmentectomy with systemic lymph node dissection
Segmentectomy with hilar and mediastinal lymph node dissection is performed. If the tumor located at inter-segment plane and without sufficient resection margin distance, a combined segmentectomy will be performed after a comprehensive evaluation. As with lobectomy, systemic or selective lymph node dissection is mandatory, and nodal sampling is not allowed. At least three stations of mediastinal lymph node from 2R, 4R, 7, 8, 9 for the right side and 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 for the left side, respectively. The distance from the dissection margin to the tumor edge must be evaluated in the same manner as with lobectomy.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame

Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was defined as the time from surgery until recurrence or death from any cause
5 year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
