2 Objectives Identify patients who need screened for lung cancer Explain benefits and risks of lung cancer screening Summarize treatment recommendations 2

3 Case 68 year old male with a history of tobacco use disorder and CAD comes to the office for smoking cessation counseling Patient states that he has a friend with lung cancer who used to smoke and he wonders if he is at risk and what he can do to prevent lung cancer You discuss smoking cessation and through his history you note that he has an on and off history of 36 pack years and is currently smoking Besides sometimes having a cough he denies ever having other concerning symptoms such as hemoptysis, chest pain, or dyspnea Otherwise he is in generally good health 3

4 Why Screen Lung Cancer Leading cause of cancer deaths [1] 1.6 million deaths worldwide annually [2] 250,000 new U.S. cases each year Treating early more beneficial [3] 4

5 Who to Screen By the book: USPSTF 2013 Systematic Review [4] 55-80yo 30 pack years of smoking Currently smoking or quite not longer than 15years ago Generally good health Others National Comprehensive Cancer Network [5] 55-74yo Medicare [6] 55-77yo 5

6 Screening Basis NLST (National Lung Cancer Screening Trial) [4] RCT 53,000 patients; CT vs. CXR 55-74yo Followed annually for 6.5yrs Positive= non-calcified nodule >4mm Positive Results: NN to screen 1:320 Cancer mortality benefit 20% All cause mortality benefit 6.7% 6

7 Benefits of Screening Stats Cancer mortality [4] All-cause mortality [4] Earlier detection [3] Best smoking cessation [3] 7

8 Harms of Screening False Positives Patient Distress Unnecessary Interventions Incidental Findings Radiation 8

9 Harms of Screening False Positives NLST: 24.2% positive LDCT [4] 96% were false positive 11% of positive led to invasive study Veterans home: 59.7% Positive [7] 1.5% truly had cancer. 1:17 may have had it, 1:42 actually had it 40% positive screen require follow up imaging Patient distress 9

10 Harms of Screening Radiation exposure [8] LDCT 1.4mSv vs. Standard CT 7-8mSv Cumulative13.0mSv For every 108 cancers discovered one was induced Overdiagnosis [9] 13-27% per observational studies 10

11 Evaluating the Data Who is it most effective in? [10] Current smokers in their 60 s Cost per quality life year [10] Modeling Cost Effectiveness Study; NEJM 2014 $52,000 per life year $81,000 per quality adjusted life year gain 60-69yo: most cost effective Cost of CT affect cost quality 11

12 Coding ICD-10 [6] Z Personal Hx of nicotine dependence CPT codes G Counseling visit to discuss need for lung cancer screening using low dose CT scan G0297 Low-dose CT scan for lung cancer screening Age 55-77yo [6] 12

13 Case Revisited 68 year old male with a history of tobacco use disorder and CAD comes to the office for smoking cessation counseling Patient states that he has a friend with lung cancer who used to smoke and he wonders if he is at risk and what he can do to prevent lung cancer You discuss smoking cessation and through his history you note that he has an on and off history of 36 pack years and is currently smoking Besides sometimes having a cough he denies ever having other symptoms hemoptysis, chest pain, or dyspnea Otherwise he is in generally good health 13
