Elisa Nusbaum 's blog ::Myth # 2: Lung Cancer is a Death Sentence





In               a               recent               press               release,               researchers               have               announced               that               they               have               found               a               way               to               predict               who               will               survive               when               an               older               woman               has               early               stage               lung               cancer.

This               is               a               significant               finding,               and               could               impact               the               type               of               care               and               treatments               that               women               receive               when               they               have               lung               cancer.

Every               year               lung               cancer               claims               the               lives               of               over               70,000               women,               and               98,000               are               diagnosed               with               lung               cancer.

Researchers               at               UCLA's               Jonsson               Comprehensive               Cancer               Center               made               the               announcement               that               they               have               been               able               to               determine               how               to               predict               who               will               survive               when               diagnosed               with               early               stage               lung               cancer.

Over               98,000               women               are               diagnosed               with               lung               cancer               every               year.
               Women               over               65               years               old,               who               also               had               high               aromatase               levels,               faced               the               highest               risk               of               dying               from               lung               cancer.

This               research               study               demonstrated               a               link               between               high               levels               of               the               enzyme               aromatase,               to               these               lower               survival               rates               for               women               with               Stage               I               or               Stage               II               lung               cancer.
               The               enzyme,               aromatase,               uses               androgens               in               our               bodies               to               make               the               hormone               estrogen.

Aromatase               plays               a               much               larger               role               in               lung               cancers               that               affect               women               than               men.
               Their               discovery               of               a               correlation               between               high               levels               of               aromatase               and               low               survival               rates               opens               the               door               for               the               potential               to               develop               a               new               tool               that               can               predict               a               woman's               probability               of               surviving               lung               cancer.
               Aromatase               inhibitors               are               already               being               used               in               breast               cancer               treatment.

It               is               expected               that               researchers               will               focus               on               developing               therapy               treatments               using               aromatase               for               lung               cancer,               too.
               "All               indications               suggest               that               this               is               a               very               powerful               prognostic               marker               that               lets               us               predict               which               patients               have               a               higher               likelihood               of               prolonged               survival               versus               death               from               lung               cancer.

If               doctors               know               that               a               woman               has               a               higher               probability               of               longer-term               survival,               they               may               choose               a               more               strategic               course               of               action               compared               to               a               woman               with               a               more               aggressive               form               of               lung               cancer,               where               doctors               might               choose               a               more               aggressive               course               of               therapy.

Another               notable               finding               from               this               study               is               that               we're               able               to               predict               survival               at               a               relatively               early               stage               of               the               disease,               when               we               have               more               treatment               options,"               said               Lee               Goodglick,               an               associate               professor               in               the               Department               of               Pathology               and               Laboratory               Medicine.
               Prior               to               this               research               study,               scientists               had               known               that               estrogen               had               a               role               in               lung               cancer,               but               they               did               not               know               the               extent               or               the               reasons               for               its               role.

Scientists               knew               that               animals               that               had               either               aromatase               or               estrogen               also               developed               human               lung               cancer               tumors.
               The               fully               study               has               been               published               in               the               November               1,               2007               issue               of               Cancer               Research.
