Chemotherapy significantly improves long-term survival of small lesion node negative metaplastic breast carcinoma in T1c population rather than T1a and T1b.

ABSTRACT: Metaplastic breast carcinoma (MpBC) is considered a highly aggressive disease, the outcome of chemotherapy on small lesions (T1abcN0M0) MpBC patients remain unclear. We identified 890 female MpBC patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database from 2000 to 2016. After propensity score matching (PSM), 584 patients were matched. Survival probability was compared among T1a, T1b, and T1c patients and between patients with and without chemotherapy using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazard analysis. Significance was set at two-sided P < 0.05. We classified 49, 166, and 675 patients as T1a, T1b, and T1c MpBC, respectively. The chemotherapy group included 404 patients (45.4%). Following PSM, survival analysis indicated that the patients who underwent chemotherapy had higher OS (P = 0.0002) and BCSS (P = 0.0276) in the T1c substage, but no significant difference was detected in T1a or T1b patients. In this population-based study, small lesion MpBC showed a favorable prognosis. Chemotherapy improved the prognosis of T1c MpBC patients but not T1a and T1b patients to a beneficial extent. Our findings may offer novel insight into a therapeutic strategy for MpBC.

Project description:To investigate the feasibility of RAPN on T1b renal mass by assessment of Trifecta and Pentafecta rate between T1a and T1b renal mass.We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 277 cases of RPN performed from 2006 to 2015. Sixty patients with clinically T1b renal masses (> 4 cm and ≤ 7 cm) were identified, and from 180 patients with clinically T1a renal mass, 60 patients were matched with T1b renal mass by propensity score. Tumor complexity was investigated according to R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score. "Pentafecta" was defined as achievement of Trifecta (negative surgical margin, no postoperative complications and warm ischemia time of ≤ 25 minutes) with addition of over 90% estimated GFR preservation and no chronic kidney disease stage upgrading at 1 year postoperative period. Propensity score matching was performed by OneToManyMTCH. Logistic regression models were used to identify the variables which predict the Trifecta, and Pentafecta ac.Preoperative variables (age, sex, body mass index, ASA score) were similar between T1a and T1b after propensity score matching. The median R.E.N.A.L. nephrometry score was 8 vs 9 for T1a and T1b respectively (p<0.001). The median warm ischemia time was 20.1 min vs 26.2 min (p<0.001). Positive surgical margin rate was 5% vs 6.6% (p = 0.729) and overall complication rate of 13.3%. vs 15% (p = 0.793). The rate of achievement of Trifecta rate were 65.3% vs 43.3% (p = 0.017) and Pentafecta rate were 38.3% vs 26.7% (p = 0.172). For achievement of Pentafecta, R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score (HR 0.80; 95% CI (0.67-0.97); p = 0.031) was significant predictor of achieving Pentafecta. Subanalyis to assess the component of R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score, L component (location relative to the polar lines, HR 0.63; 95% CI (0.38-1.03); P = 0.064) was relatively important component for Pentafecta achievement.The rate of Pentafecta after RAPN was comparable between T1a and T1b renal masses. RAPN is a feasible modality with excellent long term outcome for patients with larger renal mass (cT1b).
