Abstract
Background: Skin disorders are major adverse events associated with necitumumab plus gemcitabine and cisplatin (Neci + GC) administration. However, the prognostic effect of skin disorders in patients with lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) administered Neci + GC is unclear.
Objectives: We examined this prognostic effect in patients with LSCC, and the usefulness of minocycline administration.
Design: This was a sub-analysis of the retrospective multicenter NINJA study.
Methods: We performed a landmark survival analysis according to the presence of skin disorders at Day 30 of treatment and examined the usefulness of minocycline for treating skin disorders.
Results: Among the 93 patients, 62 (66.7%) had a skin disorder at Day 30. Nineteen, 30, and 13 patients experienced Grade 1, 2, and 3 skin disorders, respectively. The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with skin disorders at Day 30 were longer than those of patients without skin disorders (median OS: 434 vs 278 days, p = 0.0201; median PFS: 148 vs 82 days, p = 0.0835). Multivariable analysis showed that a skin disorder at Day 30 was an independent prognostic factor for both OS (p = 0.0044) and PFS (p = 0.0514). Of the 62 patients with skin disorders at Day 30, 38 (61.3%) were taking minocycline, and their time to treatment failure (TTF) was better than that in patients not taking minocycline (median TTF: 148 vs 101 days, p = 0.0495).
Conclusion: A skin disorder within 30 days was a favorable prognostic factor for patients with LSCC administered Neci + GC. Additionally, minocycline administration may be beneficial in patients who develop skin disorders within 30 days.
