1 THIS DOCUMENT IS North of Scotland Cancer Network Clinical Management Guideline for Mesothelioma [Based on WOSCAN SCLC CMG with further extensive consultation within NOSCAN] UNCONTROLLED WHEN PRINTED Document Control (Original) Prepared by Approved by Dr Hannah Lord + changes advised to/by NMcL NOSCAN Lung Cancer MCN Issue date October 2014 Review date October 2017 Version V1.5 ( ) Page 1 of 6

2 Diagnostic Pathway THIS DOCUMENT IS Clinical Management Guideline for Diagnosis and Evaluation Presentation with Pleural Effusion or Pleural Mass, previous Asbestos Exposure and clinical suspicion of Mesothelioma. CXR by GP, ideally with Thoracic CT pre-appointment. Patient seen within 2 weeks Day Pleural Effusion Pleural Mass Pleural US & Diagnostic +/- Therapeutic Pleural Aspiration, within 1/52 CT Clinic Review with Pleural Cytology Results Non Diagnostic Cytology Specific Dx other than Mesothelioma Treat as Appropriate Refer for Thoracoscopy allowing Pleural Biopsy, Drainage +/- Pleurodesis* - Medical Thoracoscopy (MT) if available. If not, consider referral to a MT centre or Surgical Thoracoscopy if the patient is fit for GA - Abram s Pleural Biopsy has a diagnostic sensitivity of 50% for Mesothelioma; it should not be used as a primary diagnostic test. It is acceptable only in the absence of MT being possible or available. Image Guided Pleural Biopsy 31 Specific Dx other than Mesothelioma Treat as Appropriate Results Clinic Review Possible Dx of Mesothelioma e.g. Suspicious Pathology Refer local Lung MDT +/- Mesothelioma MDT if needed Definite Dx of Mesothelioma Refer Mesothelioma MDT for pathology benchmarking, IMIG staging, easy access to clinical trials & IPC if required Consider: 1. Referral to Oncology if PS 0-2; if Platinum/Pemetrexed an option 2. Clinical Trials (including pain relief, systemic treatments and radical treatment options) 3. Referral to Palliative Care, particularly in patients with severe pain/advanced disease 4. Compensation, direct patients to the local Asbestos Action Group or other appropriate agency * Unlikely to be effective in patients with Trapped Lung early identification allows planning of an Indwelling Pleural Catheter if the patient develops symptomatic recurrent pleural effusion V1.5 ( ) Page 2 of 6

3 THIS DOCUMENT IS Clinical Management Guideline for Therapeutic Management Surgery Surgical intervention may be considered a suitable clinical option for a small number of selected patients who are: (ECOG) PS 0-1 early stage disease only Systemic Therapy Palliative chemotherapy is presently licensed for patients with Mesothelioma who are: (ECOG) PS 0-2 (See page 4 for details) For a small cohort of patients who remain fit, 2 nd line chemo can be considered. (See page 4 for details) ECOG - East Coast Oncology Group PS - Performance Status V1.5 ( ) Page 3 of 6

4 Clinical Management Guideline for Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy Regimens THIS DOCUMENT IS Cisplatin Pemetrexed Indications: TBC Cisplatin 75mg/m² IV Infusion on Day 1 Pemetrexed 500mg/m² IV Infusion on Day 1 Repeat every 3 weeks/21 days Continue for a maximum of 6 cycles B12, Folic acid & Dexamethasone is required Note: Carboplatin [AUC* 5] IV Infusion can replace Cisplatin when clinically appropriate Note: If less than 6 months since last cycle, consider repeating Platinum and Pemetrexed. For patients who relapse before 6 months since their previous chemotherapy, consider single agent Vinorelbine Vinorelbine Indications: TBC Vinorelbine 30mg/m 2 IV Infusion on Day(s) 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 & 35 Repeat every 8 weeks/56 days Continue for a maximum of 2 cycles *AUC Area Under Curve (as per Cockcroft Gault equation) References SMC 192/05: Pemetrexed in combination with cisplatin for the treatment of chemotherapy-naïve patients with stage III/IV unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma NICE (Multiple) Technology Appraisal Guidance No 135 Pemetrexed for the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma V1.5 ( ) Page 4 of 6

5 THIS DOCUMENT IS Clinical Management Guideline for Post treatment and Follow Up This page is presently under further review. In meantime, excepting patients trial enrolled (who should be followed up according to protocol applicable), all patients following completion of initial therapy should be followed up according to local/board protocols V1.5 ( ) Page 5 of 6
