Outcomes of radiation therapy for resectable M0 gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: The role of radiaotion therapy in resectable gastric cancer patients without distant metastases remains controversial. This retrospective analysis was performed to identify whether resectable gastric cancer patients without distant metastases might benefit from radiation.The results of the Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test showed that a total of 3309 patients had a MST of 29.0 months, a 1-year survival rate of 74.7%, and a 3-year survival rate of 45.5%. Among them, the MST of the "RPS" group and the "RAS" group were significantly longer compared with that of the "No Radiation" group (32.7vs 32.9 vs 25.3 months, P < 0.05). The 1-year survival rates were 83.7%, 83.5% and 65.6% for the "RPS", "RAS" and "No radiation" groups, respectively (P < 0.05) and the 3-year survival rates were 52.6%, 63.6% and 44.9%, respectively (P < 0.05). The multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis showed that radiation was an independent prognostic factor.A total of 5744 patients from the SEER database who were initially diagnosed with histologically confirmed gastric cancer without distant metastases from 2010 to 2013 were included. Patients were divided into three groups as follows: patients who underwent radiation after surgery ("RAS" group), patients who underwent radiation prior to surgery ("RPS" group) and patients who did not undergo radiation ,only surgery performed ("No radiation'"group).This retrospective analysis demonstrated that "RPS" or "RAS"alone were independent prognostic factors for survival improvement in selected gastric cancer patients without distant metastases.

Project description:ObjectivesPreoperative radiotherapy improves outcomes for operable esophageal cancer patients, though the proximity of the heart to the esophagus puts patients at risk of radiation-induced cardiovascular disease. This study characterizes the impact of radiotherapy and different radiation techniques on cardiovascular morbidity among a cohort of esophageal cancer patients.Materials and methodsWe identified 1125 patients aged 65 and older diagnosed between 2000 and 2011 with esophageal cancer who received surgery alone, or surgery preceded by either preoperative chemotherapy or preoperative chemoradiation from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)-Medicare database. We used Medicare claims to identify severe perioperative and late cardiovascular events. Multivariable logistic regression and Fine-Gray models were used to determine the effect of presurgery treatment on the risk of perioperative and late cardiovascular disease.ResultsPreoperative chemotherapy or chemoradiation did not significantly increase the risk of perioperative cardiovascular complications compared with surgery alone. Patients treated with preoperative chemoradiation had a 36% increased risk of having a late cardiovascular event compared with patients treated with surgery alone (subdistribution hazard ratio [SDHR]: 1.36; P=0.035). There was no significant increase in late cardiovascular events among patients treated with preoperative chemotherapy (SDHR: 1.18; P=0.40). Among patients treated with preoperative chemoradiation, those receiving intensity modulated radiotherapy had a 68% decreased risk of having a late cardiovascular event compared with patients receiving conventional radiation (SDHR: 0.32; P=0.007).ConclusionsThis study demonstrates an increased risk of cardiovascular complications among operative esophageal cancer patients treated with preoperative chemoradiation, though these risks might be reduced with more cardioprotective radiation techniques such as intensity modulated radiotherapy.

Project description:ImportanceTreatment of resectable gastric cancer (RGC) uses a multimodal approach, including surgical treatment and chemotherapy with or without radiation therapy, and the optimal treatment strategy and timing of each of these modalities is unknown.ObjectiveTo investigate the association of various neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment modalities with pathologic complete response (pCR), surgical margin status (SMS), and overall survival (OS) in RGC.Design, setting, and participantsFor this comparative effectiveness study, the National Cancer Database was interrogated to identify patients with RGC diagnosed from 2004 to 2015. Patients with gastric adenocarcinoma that was cT2-T4b, any N, and M0 and who underwent definitive surgical treatment were included.Main outcomes and measuresThe association of 9 treatment groups (ie, neoadjuvant chemoradiation only [nCRT], neoadjuvant chemotherapy only, adjuvant chemotherapy only [aCT], adjuvant chemoradiation only [aCRT], neoadjuvant chemotherapy and adjuvant radiation, chemotherapy with timing unknown [CTTU], chemoradiation therapy with timing unknown, radiation therapy with timing unknown (RTTU), and no perioperative therapy [NT]) with 3 end points (ie, pCR, SMS, and OS) was analyzed. The analysis was done using logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards models with adjustment for baseline characteristics. Data were analyzed from September 2019 through February 2020.ResultsAmong 183 204 patients with RGC who were screened, 3064 patients were included in the analysis (median [IQR] age, 68 [57-77] years; 1764 [57.6%] men). There were 1584 tumors (51.7%) located in the antrum and 1539 stage 2 tumors (50.2%). On multivariable analyses among 1939 patients (owing to 137 patients with missing data for pCR and the exclusion of 988 patients with aCT and aCRT from pCR analysis), nCRT was associated with increased odds of pCR compared with NT, with the greatest odds ratio (OR) among all treatments (OR, 59.55; 95% CI, 10.63-333.56; P < .001). RTTU had the next highest OR (29.96; 95% CI, 2.92-307.53; P = .004). In multivariable analysis for OS among 3061 patients (owing to missing data for OS), CTTU was associated with decreased risk of death compared with NT (hazard ratio, [HR], 0.41; 95% CI, 0.35-0.48; P < .001), with the lowest HR, as was nCRT (HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.35-0.66; P < .001), with the next lowest HR. Median OS was greatest among patients treated with CTTU (53.9 months; 95% CI, 44.5-61.0 months), followed by nCRT (39.1 months; 95% CI, 26.9 months-not applicable) and aCT (36.1 months; 95% CI, 28.88-49.18 months), while 2-year OS rates were 65.6% (95% CI, 61.3%-69.5%) for CTTU, 63.6% (95% CI, 52.3%-73.0%) for nCRT, and 59.7% (95% CI, 54.2%-64.7%) for aCT.Conclusions and relevanceThis study found that nCRT was associated with the highest pCR rate, while CTTU (ie, neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy) was associated with the greatest OS.
