Background: Lung adenocarcinoma regularly induces bone metastases that are responsible for impaired quality of life as well as significant morbidity, including bone pain and fractures. We aimed at identifying whether bone and metabolic biomarkers were associated with the-prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patients with synchronous bone metastases. Patients and methods: POUMOS is a prospective cohort of patients diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma and synchronous bone metastases. All patients underwent biopsy of bone metastases to confirm diagnosis, including genotyping of oncogenic drivers such as EGFR and KRAS. Whole-body composition was assessed using DEXA scan. Serum levels of C-reactive protein, HbA1C, calcaemia, sCTX, and DIM were also measured. Results: Sixty four patients, aged (mean +/- SD) 65 +/- 11 years, were included. Thirty-nine (61%) patients had a good performance status (PS 0-1); 56% had >5 bone lesions, and 41% a weight-bearing bone (femour or tibia) involvement. Median overall survival was 7 months. In multivariate analysis, HbA1c (HR = 1.69 [1.10-2.63] per 0.5% decrease; p = .02), DKK1 (HR = 1.28 [1.01-1.61] per 10 ng/mL increase; p = .04), and hypercalcaemia (HR = 2.83 [1.10-7.30]; p = .03) were independently associated with poorer survival. In the subgroup of patients with DEXA, sarcopenia was also associated with poorer survival (HR = 2.96, 95%CI[1.40-627]; p = .005). Conclusions: In patients with lung adenocarcinoma and synchronous bone metastases, bone, sarcopenia, and metabolic parameters were predictors of poor overall survival independently of common prognostic factors. We suggest that, in addition to oncological therapy, supportive treatment dedicated to bone metastases, muscle wasting, and energy metabolism are essential to improve prognosis.
