401 Background: P is a known adverse effect (AE) of mammalian target-of-rapamycin inhibitors, with a literature reported incidence of 25-45%. The goal of this review was to characterize the incidence, timing, management, and overall survival (OS) of pts treated at our center. Methods: Retrospective review of 332 patients (pts) with complete, evaluable records, who received E and/or T between 6/1/2007 and 10/1/2010. Clinical correlation was made in conjunction with serial radiologic imaging studies. Results: P occurred in 25.2 of E and 8.1 % of T pts. 10.7 of E and 11.1 % of T pts reported no symptoms (sx). 60.7 and 72.2 % reported cough, 67.9 and 61.1 % dyspnea, 17.9 and 5.6 % fever, and 67.9 and 88.9 % fatigue, with E and T, respectively. The median # of sx/pt was 2 and 3; 42.9 and 50 % received steroids, 35.7 and 22.2 % received antibiotics, 21.4 and 27.8 % had a pulmonary consult, and 10.7 and 16.7 % received oxygen, with E and T, respectively. Providers discontinued tx in 75 and 38.9%, continued tx in 17.9 and 27.8%, continued at reduced dose in 0 and 5.6%, held and later dose reduced in 7.1 and 16.7%, and held then resumed at same dose in 0 and 11.1% of pts, with E and T, respectively. The median NCI-CTC P grade was 2 (range 1–3) in both groups. No patients died from P. Conclusions: A higher incidence of P was observed in pts treated with E than T. The finding of improved OS in pts who develop P with E is intriguing and should be further investigated. [Table: see text]
