Identification of Ovarian Cancer Patients Most Likely to Achieve Chemotherapy Response Score 3 Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: Development of a Predictive Nomogram.

ABSTRACT: Background: The chemotherapy response score (CRS) system is a reproducible prognostic tool for patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Achieving CRS 3 following NACT can be used as a surrogate for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). This study aimed to identify predictors of CRS 3 and develop a predictive nomogram. Methods: Data were extracted from 106 HGSC patients receiving NACT. Logistic regression was used to identify independent predictors for CRS 3. A nomogram was established based on the multivariate regression model. Results: All patients received three cycles of NACT, and CRS 3 was observed in 24 (22.6%) patients. Compared with patients in the CRS 1-2 group, patients in the CRS 3 groups had significantly improved PFS (log-rank test P < 0.0001). The multivariate regression analysis identified post-NACT CA125, percent decrease in CA125, post-NACT human epididymis protein 4 (HE4), and post-NACT hemoglobin level as independent predictors of CRS 3. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed goodness-of-fit of this regression model (P = 0.272). The nomogram including these factors presented good discrimination (area under the curve = 0.82), good calibration (mean absolute error = 0.039), and a net benefit within the threshold probabilities of CRS 3 > 5%. Conclusions: We validated the prognostic role of the CRS system and developed a nomogram that predicts the possibility of CRS 3 following NACT. The nomogram helps to identify patients who would benefit the most from NACT. More studies are warranted to validate this model.

Project description:BackgroundNeoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is considered a standard treatment strategy for locally advanced triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). TNBC patients who achieve a pathologic complete response (pCR) are predicted to have a better prognosis while unfavorable chemo-sensitivity is still associated with a higher risk of disease relapse. The objective of this study was to construct a nomogram to predict disease-free survival (DFS) for TNBC patients following NACT.MethodsA total of 165 TNBC patients who underwent standard NACT and surgery were retrospectively reviewed, and data on their clinicopathological factors before and after NACT were collected. Independent prognostic factors for DFS were identified by Cox regression based on lower Akaike information criteria (AIC) and Bayesian information criterion (BIC). A nomogram to predict the 2-year and 5-year DFS following NACT for TNBC was constructed based on training cohort (n = 132) and validated by a validation cohort (n = 33).ResultsEither limited or full pCR (breast-only pCR, node-only pCR, or both-pCR) indicated significantly improved DFS and overall survival (OS) (p < 0.001). Lager residual tumor size (hazard ratio [HR] 1.175, p = 0.011) and the presence of lymphatic vessel invasion (LVI) (HR 3.168, p = 0.001) were identified as independent predictors of disease relapse in the training cohort. Five variables, including age, primary tumor size, histological grade, residual tumor size, and LVI were used to establish the nomogram. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.815, and calibration curves showed an acceptable consistency between the actual and nomogram-predicted 2-year and 5-year DFS. The proposed nomogram demonstrated superior predictive performance compared with Residual Cancer Burden (RCB) classification and the 8th American Joint Committee on Cancer Post Neoadjuvant Therapy Classification (AJCC ypTNM) staging system (area under the curve [AUC] for 2-year DFS: 0.870 vs. 0.758 vs. 0.711, respectively; AUC for 5-year DFS: 0.794 vs. 0.731 vs. 0.702, respectively) in the validation cohort.ConclusionsThe nomogram proposed in our study enabled to quantify the risk of disease relapse and demonstrated superior predictive performance than a survival predict instrument. It was an easy-to-use tool for clinicians to guide individualized surveillance of TNBC patients following standard NACT.
