Abstract
Targeted treatments are commonly used to treat lung cancer but can induce elevations in pancreatic enzyme levels in up to 24% of patients. While these drugs are recognized as potential triggers for pancreatitis, the clinical significance of monitoring pancreatic enzymes and the incidence of clinical acute pancreatitis remains uncertain. In our study of 1207 targeted treatments in 725 patients with advanced lung cancer, we observed that, although elevations in pancreatic enzymes were frequent (37%), instances of clinical acute pancreatitis were scarce (0.08%). Based on our findings and in line with the current recommendations of drug-induced pancreatitis, we suggest that routine monitoring for pancreatitis is not necessary in asymptomatic patients.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Lung Cancer is a peer-reviewed bimonthly journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research of lung cancer. Clinical Lung Cancer is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of lung cancer. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to lung cancer. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
