BACKGROUND: Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a common cancer complication. Clinical and economic implications of different recurrent MPE treatment pathways have not been evaluated fully.
RESEARCH QUESTION: What clinical outcomes, complications, health care resource use, and costs are associated with various rapidly recurrent MPE treatment pathways?
STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This retrospective cohort study using Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results Medicare data (2011-2015) included patients 66 to 90 years of age with rapidly recurrent MPE. Rapid recurrence was defined as receipt of a second pleural procedure within 14 days of the first thoracentesis, including nondefinitive repeated thoracentesis or a definitive treatment option including chest tube, indwelling pleural catheter (IPC), or thoracoscopy.
RESULTS: Among 8,378 patients with MPE, 3,090 patients (36.9%) had rapidly recurrent MPE (mean ± SD age, 75.9 ± 6.6 years; 45.6% male; primary cancer, 62.9% lung and 37.1% other). Second pleural procedures were nondefinitive thoracentesis (62.3%), chest tube (17.1%), IPC (13.2%), or thoracoscopy (7.4%). A third pleural procedure was required more frequently if the second pleural procedure was nondefinitive thoracentesis vs chest tube placement, IPC placement, or thoracoscopy (70.3% vs 44.1% vs 17.9% vs 14.4%, respectively). The mean number of subsequent pleural procedures over the patient's lifetime varied significantly among the procedures (1.74, 0.82, 0.31, and 0.22 procedures for patients receiving thoracentesis, chest tube, IPC, and thoracoscopy, respectively; P < .05). Average total costs after the second pleural procedure to death adjusted for age at primary cancer diagnosis, race, year of second pleural procedure, Charlson comorbidity index, cancer stage at primary diagnosis, and time from primary cancer diagnosis to diagnostic thoracentesis were lower with IPC ($37,443; P < .0001) or chest tube placement ($40,627; P = .004) vs thoracentesis ($47,711). Patients receiving thoracoscopy ($45,386; P = .5) incurred similar costs as patients receiving thoracentesis.
INTERPRETATION: Early definitive treatment was associated with fewer subsequent procedures and lower costs in patients with rapidly recurrent MPE.
