Preoperative systemic inflammatory markers are prognostic indicators in recurrent adrenocortical carcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recurrent adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has a poor prognosis with minimal clinical and biochemical factors to guide management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prognostic significance of systemic inflammatory response in patients with recurrent ACC.

Methods

Patients who underwent resection for recurrent ACC were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and mean platelet volume were calculated.

Results

Twenty-five patients (age at operation 52.2 ± 9.5 years) were identified. We observed a statistically significant shorter disease-specific survival (DSS) in patients with LMR less than 4 (41 ± 7.4 months vs 71 ± 12.3, P = .023) and male sex (26.6 ± 4.2 months vs 57.6 ± 9.5 months, P = .079), while time-to-recurrence (TTR) less than 12 months (40 ± 7.7 months vs 70.3 ± 13.1 months, P = .059) had a trend on univariate analysis for worse DSS. On multivariable analysis, LMR < 4 (hazard ratio [HR] 4.18; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.18-14.76; P = .027) and TTR less than 12 months (HR 2.77 95% CI: 1-7.62; P = .049) were found to be significantly associated with worse DSS.

Conclusion

Preoperative LMR greater than 4 and TTR greater than 12 months are associated with longer DSS. Patients with LMR greater than 4 and TTR greater than 12 months may benefit from a more aggressive therapeutic approach and may require less frequent surveillance.

Prognostic implications of preoperative systemic inflammatory markers in oral squamous cell carcinoma, and correlations with the local immune tumor microenvironment.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of preoperative inflammatory markers in peripheral blood of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), and to establish correlations with the infiltrate of macrophages and lymphocytes in the local immune tumor microenvironment (TME).Materials and methodsNeutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) were retrospectively evaluated in a cohort of 348 OSCC patients, and correlated with overall (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS). Immunohistochemical analysis of tumoral and stromal infiltration of CD8+, CD4+, FOXP3+ and CD20+ lymphocytes and CD68+ and CD163+ macrophages was performed in a subset of 119 OSCC patient samples, and correlations further assessed.ResultsNLR, SII, and LMR were significantly associated with a poorer OS in univariate analysis; however, only NLR remained a significant independent predictor in the multivariate analysis (HR = 1.626, p = 0.04). NLR and SII were inversely and significantly correlated with stromal infiltration of CD8+, CD4+, and CD20+ lymphocytes. Moreover, a significant correlation between LMR was also found to significantly associate with stromal infiltration of CD8+, CD4+, and CD20+ lymphocytes, stromal CD68+ and CD163+ macrophages, and also tumoral infiltration of CD4+ and CD20+ lymphocytes.ConclusionsPreoperative NLR, SII, and LMR may serve as valuable systemic markers to predict OSCC patient survival, with NLR emerging as an independent predictor of poor OS. Moreover, strong significant correlations were exclusively observed between systemic inflammatory markers and the local stromal infiltration of lymphocytes in the TME.

Prognostic Significance of Preoperative Systemic Cellular Inflammatory Markers in Gliomas: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Project description:Glioma is the most common malignant brain tumor and has high lethality. This tumor generated a robust inflammatory response that results in the deterioration of the disease. However, the prognostic role of systemic cellular inflammatory indicators in gliomas remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the prognostic significance of preoperative neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR), red cell distribution width (RDW), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in patients with gliomas. Databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library were systematically searched for all studies published up to January 2019. Study screening and data extraction followed established Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of studies. Eighteen studies containing 3,261 patients were included. The analyses showed an increased NLR or RDW was found to be an independent predictor of worse survival in patients with gliomas (hazard ratio (HR): 1.38; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.09-1.74; P = 0.008; and HR: 1.40; 95% CI: 1.13-1.74; P = 0.002, respectively). Furthermore, a higher PNI indicates a better overall survival (OS; HR: 0.57; 95% CI: 0.42-0.77; P = 0.0002). For the evaluation of PLR and LMR, none of these variables correlated with OS (P = 0.91 and P = 0.21, respectively). Our meta-analysis indicates the NLR, RDW, and PNI rather than PLR and LMR are the independent index for predicting the OS of gliomas. Pre-operative NLR, RDW, and PNI can help to evaluate disease progression, optimize treatment, and follow-up in patients with gliomas.

Prognostic value of preoperative inflammatory markers in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent curative resection.

Project description:BackgroundThe prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is not optimistic. Our study focused on present inflammatory markers, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase-to-platelet ratio (GPR), aspartate aminotransferase-to-lymphocyte ratio (ALR) and fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR), and explored their optimal combination for the prognosis of HCC after resection.MethodsA total of 347 HCC patients who underwent curative resection were enrolled. The optimal cutoff values of the inflammatory markers were calculated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, and used to divide patients into two groups whose differences were compared by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Cox univariate and multivariate analyses were used to analyze the independent prognostic inflammatory markers. The χ2 test was chosen to determine the relationship between independent prognostic inflammatory markers and clinicopathological features. We created combined scoring models and evaluated them by Cox univariate and multivariate methods. The concordance index (C-index), Akaike information criterion (AIC) and likelihood ratio were calculated to compare the models. The selected optimal inflammatory markers and their combinations were tested in different stages of HCC by Kaplan-Meier analysis.ResultsThe ALR and GPR were independent prognostic factors for disease-free survival (DFS); the ALR, PLR, and GPR were independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS). The proposed GPR and ALR-GPR-PLR score models were independent predictors for DFS and OS, respectively.ConclusionThe preoperative GPR and ALR-GPR-PLR score models were independent predictors for DFS and OS, respectively, and performed well in stratifying patients with HCC. The higher the score in the model was, the worse the prognosis.

Intratumor heterogeneity of prognostic DNA-based molecular markers in adrenocortical carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundThe prognosis of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is heterogeneous. Genomic studies have identified ACC subgroups characterized by specific molecular alterations, including features measured at DNA level (somatic mutations, chromosome alterations, DNA methylation), which are closely associated with outcome. The aim of this study was to evaluate intratumor heterogeneity of prognostic molecular markers at the DNA level.MethodsTwo different tissue samples (primary tumor, local recurrence or metastasis) were analyzed in 26 patients who underwent surgery for primary or recurrent ACC. DNA-related biomarkers with prognostic role were investigated in frozen and paraffin-embedded samples. Somatic mutations of p53/Rb and Wnt/β-catenin pathways were assessed using next-generation sequencing (n = 26), chromosome alteration profiles were determined using SNP arrays (n = 14) and methylation profiles were determined using four-gene bisulfite pyrosequencing (n = 12).ResultsSomatic mutations for ZNRF3, TP53, CTNN1B and CDKN2A were found in 7, 6, 6 and 4 patients, respectively, with intratumor heterogeneity in 8/26 patients (31%). Chromosome alteration profiles were 'Noisy' (numerous and anarchic alterations) in 8/14 and 'Chromosomal' (extended patterns of loss of heterozygosity) in 5/14 of the study samples. For these profiles, no intratumor heterogeneity was observed. Methylation profiles were hypermethylated in 5/12 and non-hypermethylated in 7/12 of the study samples. Intratumor heterogeneity of methylation profiles was observed in 2/12 patients (17%).ConclusionsIntratumor heterogeneity impacts DNA-related molecular markers. While somatic mutation can differ, prognostic DNA methylation and chromosome alteration profile seem rather stable and might be more robust for the prognostic assessment.

Early inflammatory markers as prognostic indicators following allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Project description:Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is used widely in the treatment of hematopoietic malignancy although graft versus host disease and relapse remain major complications. We measured the serum protein expression of 92 inflammation-related markers from 49 patients at Day 0 (D0) and 154 patients at Day 14 (D14) following transplantation and related values to subsequent clinical outcomes. Low levels of 7 proteins at D0 were linked to GvHD whilst high levels of 7 proteins were associated with relapse. The concentration of 38 proteins increased over 14 days and higher inflammatory response at D14 was strongly correlated with patient age. A marked increment in protein concentration during this period associated with GvHD but reduced risk of disease relapse, indicating a link with alloreactive immunity. In contrast, patients who demonstrated low dynamic elevation of inflammatory markers during the first 14 days were at increased risk of subsequent disease relapse. Multivariate time-to-event analysis revealed that high CCL23 at D14 was associative of AGvHD, CXCL10 with reduced rate of relapse, and high PD-L1 with reduced overall survival. This work identifies a dynamic pattern of inflammatory biomarkers in the very early post-transplantation period and reveals early protein markers that may help to guide patient management.

Survival and prognostic analysis of preoperative inflammatory markers in patients undergoing surgical resection for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundTo estimate the prognostic value of inflammatory markers in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC).MethodsA total of 361 resected LSCC patients were included. The preoperative and postoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and l actate dehydrogenase (LDH) were assessed. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression analysis were conducted on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS).ResultsBoth Kaplan-Meier analysis and univariate analysis demonstrated significant prognostic value of preoperative and postoperative NLR, PLR and MLR. However, only preoperative ALP was predictive of OS and PFS, and LDH failed to be predictor of OS and PFS. The multivariate analysis showed that preoperative NLR (OS: HR = 1.64, 95%CI: 1.06-2.54, p = 0.026; PFS: HR = 1.52, 95%CI: 1.04-2.23, p = 0.029) and postoperative MLR (OS: HR = 2.02, 95%CI: 1.29-3.14, p = 0.002; PFS: HR = 1.57, 95%CI: 1.05-2.34, p = 0.026) were independently related with survival.ConclusionsThe elevated preoperative NLR, PLR, MLR and ALP were significantly associated with worse survival and cancer progression. The preoperative NLR and postoperative MLR might be independent prognostic markers of OS and PFS in LSCC patients undergoing surgical resection.

Current management options for recurrent adrenocortical carcinoma.

Project description:Adrenal cortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare cancer that poses a number of management challenges due to the limited number of effective systemic treatments. Complete surgical resection offers the best chance of long-term survival. However, despite complete resection, ACC is associated with high recurrence rates. This review will discuss the management of recurrent ACC in adults following complete surgical resection. Management should take place in a specialist center and treatment decisions must consider the individual tumor biology of each case of recurrence. Given the fact that ACC commonly recurs, management to prevent recurrence should be considered from initial diagnosis with the use of adjuvant mitotane. Close follow up with clinical examination and imaging is important for early detection of recurrent disease. Locoregional recurrence may be isolated, and repeat surgical resection should be considered along with mitotane. The use of radiotherapy in ACC remains controversial. Systemic recurrence most often involves liver, pulmonary, and bone metastasis and is usually managed with mitotane, with or without combination chemotherapy. There is a limited role for surgical resection in systemic recurrence in selected patients. In all patients with recurrent disease, control of excessive hormone production is an important part of management. Despite intensive management of recurrent ACC, treatment failure is common and the use of clinical trials and novel treatment is an important part of management.

Preoperative inflammatory markers of NLR and PLR as indicators of poor prognosis in resectable HCC.

Project description:BackgroundMany recent studies have demonstrated the predominant role chronic inflammation plays in cancer cell propagation, angiogenesis and immunosuppression. Cancer-related inflammation (CRI) has been shown to correlate with poor cancer prognosis. Our study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who have undergone liver resection.MethodsBetween 2012 and 2015, 239 patients with HCC who had undergone liver resection at XiangYa Hospital Central South University were included in this study. The values of simple inflammatory markers, including the NLR and PLR, used in predicting the long-term outcomes of these patients were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression models.ResultsThe cutoff values of the NLR and PLR were 2.92 and 128.1, respectively. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, high NLR (≥2.92) and high PLR (≥128.1) were independent risk factors predicting poorer outcomes in patients with HCC. However, high NLR and high PLR were prognostic factors in tumor size and tumor number.ConclusionsIn this study, we identified that high NLR (≥2.92) and high PLR (≥128.1) are useful prognostic factors in predicting outcomes in patients with HCC whom underwent liver resection.

Prognostic Factors for Adrenocortical Carcinoma Outcomes.

Project description:PurposeAdrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is an aggressive tumor characterized by a high recurrence rate and poor response to treatment. This study analyzes a consecutive series of ACC patients to evaluate the prognostic value of various clinical and pathological characteristics.MethodsWe retrospectively evaluated 32 ACC patients followed at our Medical Center from 1997 to 2015 and evaluated the prognostic value of age at diagnosis, gender, tumor functional status, stage, and type of treatment with respect to overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), as determined by Kaplan-Meier curves.ResultsACC was associated with hormonal overproduction in 50% of cases, and patients with isolated hyperandrogenism had a better prognosis. Recurrence was observed in 12/26 (46.2%) patients with no evidence of disease after surgery. Tumor size [hazard ratio (HR) 1.32, 95% confidential intervals (CI) 1.12-1.64; p = 0.007], ki-67 (HR 1.06, 95% CI 1.02-1.11; p = 0.009) and advanced stage at diagnosis (III-IV) (HR 6.51, 95% CI 1.65-24.68; p = 0.006) were associated with recurrence in the 26 R0 patients in the univariate analysis. Advanced stage was an independent risk factor for recurrence in the multivariate analysis (HR 8.10, 95% CI 1.55-41.35; p = 0.01). Five-year survival was 40.0%. Positive resection margins (HR 10.61, 95% CI 3.02-38.31; p = < 0.001), ki-67 (HR 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.07; p = 0.01) and advanced stage (HR 11.31, 95% CI 1.45-87.76; p = 0.02) were associated with poor survival in all 32 patients, but only positive resection margins were an independent predictor of mortality in the multivariate analysis (HR 6.22, 95% CI 1.44-26.05; p = 0.01).ConclusionACC has a poor prognosis with a high recurrence rate. Tumor stage at diagnosis and the completeness of surgical excision are the most relevant prognostic factors.

Prognostic Alternative mRNA Splicing in Adrenocortical Carcinoma.

Project description:BackgroundThis paper aims to identify alternative RNA splicing landscape and its prognostic value in adrenocortical carcinoma.MethodsThe alternative splicing events data with corresponding clinical information data of 79 ACC patients were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas and SpliceSeq package. Prognosis-associated AS events by using univariate Cox regression analysis were selected. Gene functional enrichment analysis demonstrated the potential pathways enriched by survival-associated AS. Prognosis-related splicing events were submitted to develop moderate predictors using Lasso regression model.ResultsOne thousand five survival-associated alternative splicing events were identified. The prognostic genes included ATXN2L, MEIS1, IKBKB, COX4I1. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that prognostic splicing events are associated with Wnt signaling pathway. A prediction model including 12 alternative splicing events was constructed by Lasso regression using train set. ROC analysis showed good performance of the prediction model in test set. Then, a nomogram integrating the clinical-pathological factors and riskscore was constructed for predicting 1- and 3-year survival rate.ConclusionOur data provide a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of AS events in ACC, providing biomarkers for disease progression and a potentially rich source of novel therapeutic targets.
