ABSTRACT: Background
the purpose of this analysis was to analyze the outcomes of multimodal treatment that are related to Lauren histotypes in gastro-esophageal cancer (GEC).Methods
patients with GEC between 1986 and 2013 were analyzed. Uni- and multivariate regression analysis were performed to identify predictors for overall survival. Lauren histotype stratified overall survival (OS)-rates were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Further, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance for confounders.Results
1290 patients were analyzed. After PSM, the median survival was 32 months for patients undergoing primary surgery (PS) and 43 months for patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCTx) ahead of surgery. For intestinal types, median survival time was 34 months (PS) vs. 52 months (nCTx+surgery) p = 0.07, 36 months (PS) vs. (31) months (nCTx+surgery) in diffuse types (p = 0.44) and 31 months (PS) vs. 62 months (nCTx+surgery) for mixed types (p = 0.28). Five-/Ten-year survival rates for intestinal, diffuse, and mixed types were 44/29%, 36/17%, and 43/33%, respectively. After PSM, Kaplan-Meier showed a survival benefit for patients undergoing nCTx+surgery in intestinal and mixed types.Conclusion
the Lauren histotype might be predictive for survival outcome in GEC-patients after neoadjuvant/perioperative chemotherapy.
