heal.abstract | PURPOSE: To study the phenomenon of positive urine cytology in patients with lung cancer in the absence of obvious urothelial metastases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 150 patients with small (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) of all stages and 3 control groups were prospectively studied. Immunocytochemical study (cytokeratins 7-20, TTF1) in all positive urine specimens and chemokine profile (CXCR4, CCL21) study of the primary tumor in selected positive patients was performed. In experimental study, C57Bl/6 BALB/C mice injected with LLC lung and 4T1 mammary cancer cells were used for the detection of positive urine cytology. RESULTS: 11% of patients with NSCLC, 7% of patients with SCLC and none of the control group had positive urine cytology. In NSCLC, metastatic disease and high tumor burden positively correlated (p=0.01 and 0.03 respectively) with the phenomenon. In SCLC, correlation with extensive disease and multiple metastatic sites (p=0.02 and 0.04 respectively) was found. No correlation was found in either group with: age, gender, histology, performance status, line of chemotherapy, previous platinum-based chemotherapy, adrenal metastases, renal function, abnormal urinary sediment, response to chemotherapy and overall survival (p=0.9). Distinctive chemokine expression was identified in positive patients studied and was not observed in negative patients (x2 p=0.008). In the experimental study, only the LLC lung cancer cells were detected in the urine cytology of mice. CONCLUSION: This phenomenon, carrying undefined pathophysiological mechanisms, seems to characterize only patients with metastatic/extensive disease and high tumor burden. Further studies are needed to validate our preliminary chemokine expression results. | en |
