Patterns of Recurrence and Survival Rate After Complete Resection of Pathological Stage N2 Small-Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The benefits of surgical resection for patients with stage N2 limited-disease small-cell lung cancer (LD-SCLC) remain controversial. This retrospective study analyzed the survival and recurrence patterns of the patients diagnosed with pathological N2 (p-N2) LD-SCLC after radical resection. A total of 171 p-N2 LD-SCLC patients who underwent radical pulmonary resection and systematic lymphadenectomies at Shanghai Chest Hospital from July 2005 to June 2015 were enrolled. The influence of the mediastinal lymph node status (single or multiple nodes, single- or multiple-station) on the survival and recurrence patterns was retrospectively analyzed. The main recurrence sites were outside the chest cavity (54.8%) and hematogenous metastasis (67.4%). The bone and liver as initial recurrence sites had a poor prognosis, with a median overall survival (OS) of 13.100 months and 11.900 months, respectively. The median disease-free survival (DFS) of patients diagnosed with single and multiple p-N2 after surgery were 19.233 and 9.367 months (P = 0.001), and the median OS were 43.033 and 17.100 months (P < 0.001), respectively. In conclusion, recurrence occurred in the form of hematogenous metastasis mostly in the extra-thoracic part. Interestingly, patients diagnosed with single p-N2 benefited from radical resection. Surgery may be a treatment option regardless of the T stage if N2 SCLC with a single metastatic lymph node can be identified preoperatively.

Project description:BackgroundIn this era of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant therapy, the optimal sequence in which chemoradiotherapy should be administered for pathological stage N2 rectal cancer is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate this sequence.MethodsIn the primary adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (A-CRT) group (n = 71), postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy was administered before adjuvant chemotherapy. In the primary adjuvant chemotherapy (A-CT) group (n = 43), postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy was administered during or after adjuvant chemotherapy. Postoperative radiotherapy comprised 45-50.4 Gy in 25-28 fractions. Concurrent chemotherapy comprised two cycles of oral capecitabine (1,600 mg/m2) on days 1-14 and 22-35. Patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy with four or more cycles of XELOX (oxaliplatin plus capecitabine) or eight or more cycles of FOLFOX (fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin) were included.ResultsBetween June 2005 and December 2013, data for 114 qualified rectal cancer patients were analyzed. The percentages of patients in whom treatment failed in the A-CRT and A-CT groups were 33.8% and 16.3%, respectively (p = 0.042). More patients had distant metastases in the A-CRT group than in the A-CT group (32.4% vs. 14.3%, p = 0.028). Multivariate analysis indicated that the sequence in which chemoradiotherapy was administered (A-CT vs. A-CRT) was an independent prognostic factor for both estimated disease-free survival [hazard ratio (HR) 0.345, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.137-0.868, p = 0.024] and estimated distant metastasis-free survival (HR 0.366, 95% CI 0.143-0.938, p = 0.036).ConclusionsIn pathological stage N2 rectal cancer patients, administering adjuvant chemotherapy before chemoradiotherapy led to a lower rate of treatment failure, especially with respect to distant metastasis. Adjuvant chemotherapy prescribed as early as possible might benefit this cohort of patients in this era of oxaliplatin-based adjuvant therapy.

Project description:BackgroundCancer recurrence after tumor resection in early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is common, yet difficult to predict. The lung microbiota and systemic immunity may be important modulators of risk for lung cancer recurrence, yet biomarkers from the lung microbiome and peripheral immune environment are understudied. Such markers may hold promise for prediction as well as improved etiologic understanding of lung cancer recurrence.MethodsIn tumor and distant normal lung samples from 46 stage II NSCLC patients with curative resection (39 tumor samples, 41 normal lung samples), we conducted 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We also measured peripheral blood immune gene expression with nanoString®. We examined associations of lung microbiota and peripheral gene expression with recurrence-free survival (RFS) and disease-free survival (DFS) using 500 × 10-fold cross-validated elastic-net penalized Cox regression, and examined predictive accuracy using time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.ResultsOver a median of 4.8 years of follow-up (range 0.2-12.2 years), 43% of patients experienced a recurrence, and 50% died. In normal lung tissue, a higher abundance of classes Bacteroidia and Clostridia, and orders Bacteroidales and Clostridiales, were associated with worse RFS, while a higher abundance of classes Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria, and orders Burkholderiales and Neisseriales, were associated with better RFS. In tumor tissue, a higher abundance of orders Actinomycetales and Pseudomonadales were associated with worse DFS. Among these taxa, normal lung Clostridiales and Bacteroidales were also related to worse survival in a previous small pilot study and an additional independent validation cohort. In peripheral blood, higher expression of genes TAP1, TAPBP, CSF2RB, and IFITM2 were associated with better DFS. Analysis of ROC curves revealed that lung microbiome and peripheral gene expression biomarkers provided significant additional recurrence risk discrimination over standard demographic and clinical covariates, with microbiome biomarkers contributing more to short-term (1-year) prediction and gene biomarkers contributing to longer-term (2-5-year) prediction.ConclusionsWe identified compelling biomarkers in under-explored data types, the lung microbiome, and peripheral blood gene expression, which may improve risk prediction of recurrence in early-stage NSCLC patients. These findings will require validation in a larger cohort.

Project description:BackgroundLiver resection is the most effective treatment for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Recurrent disease is frequent; however, recurrence patterns are ill-defined and prognostic models are lacking.Study designA primary cohort of 189 patients who underwent resection for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma was used for recurrence patterns analysis within and after 24 months. Based on independent factors for disease-free survival identified in Cox regression analysis, preoperative and postoperative models were developed using a recursive partitioning method. Models were externally validated using a multicenter cohort of 522 resected patients (Association Française de Chirurgie intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma study group).ResultsRecurrence within 24 months most often involved the liver (82.7%), and most recurrences after 24 months were strictly extrahepatic (61.1%). In multivariable analysis of the primary cohort, independent preoperative factors for disease-free survival were tumor size and multifocality (based on imaging); tumor size, multifocality, vascular invasion, and lymph node metastases (based on pathology) were independent postoperative factors. The preoperative model allowed patient classification into low-risk and high-risk groups for recurrence. In the validation cohort (n = 522), high-risk patients had a greater likelihood of recurrence (hazard ratio = 2.17; 95% CI, 1.74-2.72; p < 0.001). The postoperative model included tumor size, vascular invasion, and positive nodal disease on pathology and classified patients in low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups in the primary cohort. As compared with low-risk patients in the validation cohort, intermediate- and high-risk patients were more likely to experience recurrence (hazard ratio = 1.9; 95% CI, 1.41-2.47; p < 0.001 and hazard ratio = 2.99; 95% CI, 2.08-4.31; p < 0.001, respectively).ConclusionsRecurrence patterns are time dependent. Both models as developed and validated in this study classified patients in distinct recurrence risk groups, which can guide treatment recommendations.
