This study demonstrates that sarcopenia on preoperative chest CT is an independent risk factor for worse cancer-specific and overall survival following pneumonectomy for NSCLC in a transatlantic multicenter setting.
Background Mortality risk prediction in patients undergoing pneumonectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains imperfect. Here, we aimed to assess whether sarcopenia on routine chest computed tomography (CT) independently predicts worse cancer-specific (CSS) and overall survival (OS) following pneumonectomy for NSCLC. Methods We included consecutive adults undergoing standard or carinal pneumonectomy for NSCLC at Massachusetts General Hospital and Heidelberg University from 2010 to 2018. We measured muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) on CT at thoracic vertebral levels T8, T10, and T12 within 90 days prior to surgery. Sarcopenia was defined as T10 muscle CSA less than two standard deviations below the mean in healthy controls. We adjusted time-to-event analyses for age, body mass index, Charlson Comorbidity Index, forced expiratory volume in 1 second in % predicted, induction therapy, sex, smoking status, tumor stage, side of pneumonectomy, and institution. Results Three hundred and sixty-seven patients (67.4% male, median age 62 years, 16.9% early-stage) underwent predominantly standard pneumonectomy (89.6%) for stage IIIA NSCLC (45.5%) and squamous cell histology (58%). Sarcopenia was present in 104 of 367 patients (28.3%). Ninety-day all-cause mortality was 7.1% (26/367). After a median follow-up of 20.5 months (IQR, 9.2-46.9), 183 of 367 patients (49.9%) had died. One hundred and thirty-three (72.7%) of these deaths were due to lung cancer. Sarcopenia was associated with shorter CSS (HR 1.7, p = 0.008) and OS (HR 1.7, p = 0.003). Conclusions This transatlantic multicenter study confirms that sarcopenia on preoperative chest CT is an independent risk factor for CSS and OS following pneumonectomy for NSCLC.
