Comparison of adjuvant therapy for node-positive clinical stage IB-IIB cervical cancer: Systemic chemotherapy versus pelvic irradiation.

ABSTRACT: This was a nation-wide retrospective study in Japan examining women who underwent radical hysterectomy for clinical stage IB-IIB cervical cancer with pelvic and/or para-aortic lymph node metastasis between 2004 and 2008. Time to recurrence or death and patterns of disease recurrence were compared based upon the adjuvant treatment pattern: whole pelvic radiotherapy alone (n?=?253), concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT, n?=?502) and chemotherapy alone (n?=?319). Women who received chemotherapy alone had similar recurrence (5-year rates, 36.6% vs. 34.1%, adjusted-hazard ratio [HR] 0.95, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.70-1.28, P?=?0.72) and cervical cancer mortality (24.7% vs. 21.8%, adjusted-HR 0.96, 95% CI 0.67-1.38, P?=?0.83) rates compared to those who received CCRT on multivariate analysis. However, when recurrence patterns were stratified, chemotherapy treatment was independently associated with decreased risk of distant recurrence (5-year cumulative rates, 19.2% vs. 24.6%, adjusted-HR 0.47, 95% CI 0.31-0.71, P?

Project description:According to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network clinical practice guidelines of cervical cancer, concurrent chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy is suggested for patients who receive radical hysterectomy and have intermediate- and high-risk cervical cancer. However, adjuvant chemotherapy has been increasingly chosen given the adverse events associated with chemoradiotherapy or radiotherapy and the increase in evidence regarding the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy. Given that adjuvant chemotherapy is not a standard treatment at present, if recurrence after adjuvant chemotherapy could be predicted, it would assist the decision of gynecological oncologists selecting which adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy or radiation therapy) to use. Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1-like protein (CLPTM1L; also known as cisplatin resistance-related protein 9) is associated with apoptotic mechanisms and is related to the proliferation of the tumor cells and resistance against chemotherapy. In the present study, the association between CLPTM1L expression and recurrence of intermediate- and high-risk stage IB-IIB cervical cancer in patients undergoing radical hysterectomy followed by treatment with cisplatin and paclitaxel (TP) as adjuvant chemotherapy was determined. Patients were divided into two groups: Recurrence group and no-recurrence group. CLPTM1L expression was examined using immunohistochemistry in paraffin-embedded sections using weighted scores. Regarding the characteristics of the patients, a histology of non-squamous cell carcinoma, lymph node metastasis and parametrium invasion were more common in the recurrence group compared with the non-recurrence group. In the recurrence group, CLPTM1L expression was significantly higher than that in the no-recurrence group. Next, patients were divided into low and high-expression groups based on the weighted score with a cut-off value of 6. In the high expression group, patients exhibited a higher rate of recurrence (37.5 vs. 5.1%) and had worse overall survival. Multivariate analysis revealed that high CLPTM1L expression was independently related to recurrence. In in vitro analysis, small interfering RNA-mediated knockdown of CLPTM1L enhanced the sensitivity of cervical cancer cells to cisplatin. In conclusion, the present study revealed that CLPTM1L expression may be a predictive biomarker of recurrence of intermediate- and high-risk stage IB-IIB cervical cancer in patients undergoing radical hysterectomy followed by TP as adjuvant chemotherapy.

Project description:BackgroundThe prognostic value of ground glass opacity (GGO) in stage IA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been widely recognized. However, studies investigating its value in the related stage IB-IIA lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains lacking. The impact of adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) on pathological stage IB-IIA LUAD is also controversial.Materials and methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of 501 patients with pathological stage IB-IIA LUAD at the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from January 2008 to June 2018. We calculated and compared survival curves using the Kaplan-Meier test and log-rank test. Cox regression models were performed to determine independent prognostic factors of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). We established nomograms to predict the OS and DFS of LUAD patients. Calibration and receiver operator characteristic curves were conducted to assess the predictive performance of two nomograms. Based on the nomogram, we identified candidate patients that may most benefit from ACT after surgery.ResultsThe number of patients with pure solid, part GGO, and pure GGO nodules was 240, 242, and 19, respectively, and 125 patients who received ACT. Patients with consolidation-to-tumor ratio (CTR) <0.75 had longer OS (P = 0.026) and DFS (P = 0.003). Pathological tumor size and at least 10 lymph nodes (LNs) resection were independent prognostic factors of both OS and DFS. CTR <0.75 was positively associated with DFS. The C-index of nomograms predicting individual OS and DFS was 0.660 and 0.634, respectively. Based on the nomogram for OS, ACT was found to be a positive prognostic indicator of OS (P = 0.031, HR = 0.5141, 95% CI 0.281-0.942) in patients with nomogram total points ≥5.ConclusionCTR <0.75 is associated with a better DFS in patients with stage IB-IIA LUAD. Nomograms developed by integrating pathological tumor size, at least 10 LNs resection, and CTR ≥0.75 for predicting individual OS and DFS displayed a good predictive capacity and clinical value, which were also proved to be a useful tool for selecting patients most benefiting from ACT.
