BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The role of postoperative radiotherapy (PORT) in uncertain resection of pN2 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with highest mediastinal lymph node positive has not been determined. We aim to evaluate the effect of PORT and driver gene mutation status (DGMS) on survival in such patients.
METHODS: 140 selected patients were grouped according to whether they received PORT and their DGMS. Locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) of each group were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analyses. COX regression was used to evaluate the effects of various factors on DFS and OS.
RESULTS: Of 140 patients, thirty-four patients (24.3%) received PORT, and forty (28.6%) had positive driver gene mutation status (DGp). PORT significantly prolonged LRFS (p = 0.002), DFS (p = 0.019) and OS (p = 0.02), but not DMFS (p = 0.062). By subgroup analysis, in patients with negative driver gene mutation status (DGn), those receiving PORT had notably longer LRFS (p = 0.022) and DFS (p = 0.033), but not DMFS (p = 0.060) or OS (p = 0.215), compared to those not receiving PORT. Cox analysis showed that the number of positive lymph nodes (PLNs) and administration of PORT were independent prognostic factors of DFS, and pathology, PLNs, and DGMS may be prognostic factors of OS (all p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Postoperative radiotherapy may improve locoregional recurrence-free and disease-free survival in patients with pN2 NSCLC with positive highest mediastinal lymph nodes, while driver gene mutation status impacted OS significantly. Only patients with positive driver gene mutations experienced significant overall survival benefits from postoperative radiotherapy.
