Epidemiology, Treatment, and Outcome of Pancreatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Propensity Score-Matching Analysis Based on SEER-Database.

ABSTRACT: Background: Pancreatic squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) is a rare pancreatic malignancy compared to most common pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC). Aims: To analyze the prognostics factors of PSCC and compare PAC with PSCC in demographic patterns, clinicopathologic characteristics and treatment modalities. Methods: Data of PSCC and PAC patients from January 1, 2004 to December 31, 2015 were extracted from Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database for case-control study. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards analysis were used in survival analysis. A 1:3 propensity-score matching (PSM) was performed to compare the overall survival (OS) and cancer specific survival (CSS) between PAC and PSCC in each variable. Results: PAC patients (n = 38 968) and PSCC patients (n = 124) were analyzed. After PSM, 372 PAC patients and 124 PSCC patients were obtained. PSCC tends to happen to elders, white and female with a predilection site of pancreatic head, followed by tail, then body. PSCC have a higher proportion to be poorly differentiated and metastatic when diagnosed. The prognosis of PSCC patients was significantly worse than PAC patients in both univariate and multivariate analyses. Surgery and chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors for PSCC. Conclusions: PSCC patients were identified associated with a worse prognosis than PAC patients. PSCC tend to be poorly differentiated and more easily to be metastatic. Surgery and chemotherapy may be effective therapies to improve the OS of PSCC significantly.

Laparoscopic versus open pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: a propensity score matching analysis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:A growing body of evidence supports the use of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) as an efficient and feasible surgical technique. However, few studies have investigated its applicability in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and the long-term efficacy of LPD on PDAC remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the short- and long-term outcomes between LPD and open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD) for PDAC. METHODS:The data of patients who had OPD or LPD for PDAC between January 2013 and September 2017 were retrieved. Their postoperative outcomes and survival were compared after propensity score matching. RESULTS:A total of 309 patients were included. After a 2:1 matching, 93 cases in the OPD group and 55 in the LPD group were identified. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE), particularly grade B/C DGE, occurred less frequently in the LPD group than in the OPD group (1.8% vs. 36.6%, P?<?0.001; 1.8% vs. 22.6%, P?=?0.001). The overall complication rates were significantly lower in the LPD group than in the OPD group (49.1% vs. 71.0%, P?=?0.008), whereas the rates of major complications were similar (10.9% vs. 14.0%, P?=?0.590). In addition, the median overall survival was comparable between the two groups (20.0 vs. 18.7 months, P?=?0.293). CONCLUSION:LPD was found to be technically feasible with efficacy similar to OPD for patients with PDAC.

Effect of preoperative radiotherapy on the prognosis of patients with stage cTxN0M0 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: propensity score matching analysis based on SEER database.

Project description:ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of preoperative radiotherapy (RT) on overall survival (OS) in patients with stage cTxN0M0 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).MethodsA total of 467 patients with ESCC diagnosed as cTxN0M0 and undergoing esophagectomy between 2004 and 2016 were downloaded from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. According to the presence or absence of preoperative RT, the patients were divided into preoperative RT group and non-preoperative RT group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to equalize baseline levels between groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to compare the survival differences between the two groups.ResultsUsing PSM, 162 pairs of patients were selected. Preoperative RT was not a prognostic factor for OS in all patients with cTx stage. After PSM, for patients with cT1-2 stage, univariate Cox regression analysis showed that preoperative RT was an influencing factor of OS, and multivariate Cox regression analysis confirmed that preoperative RT was an independent predictor of OS. Compared with non-preoperative RT, preoperative RT significantly decreased OS (HR = 1.556, 95%CI 1.008-2.464, p = 0.046). For patients with cT3-4, univariate Cox regression analysis showed that preoperative RT was an influencing factor for OS, and multivariate Cox regression analysis determined that preoperative RT was independent predictors of survival. Compared with non-preoperative RT, preoperative RT significantly improved the OS (HR = 0.479, 95%CI 0.272-0.841, p = 0.010).ConclusionFor ESCC, preoperative RT can improve the OS of patients with cT3-4N0M0. However, preoperative RT is not suitable for patients with cT1-2N0M0.

Outcome patterns of cervical adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma following curative surgery: before and after propensity score matching analysis of a cohort study.

Project description:To estimate the outcome patterns and predictors of curative surgery for cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (ADC) for overall survival (OS), locoregional recurrence (LRR), and distant metastasis (DM), we enrolled 4628 patients who had received a diagnosis of cervical SCC or ADC and received curative surgery. Cox regression analysis was employed to calculate hazard ratios and confidence intervals (CIs); independent predictors were controlled for or stratified in the analysis, and the endpoint was all-cause death. Propensity score matching was conducted to create well-balanced groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that the pathologic type of ADC, age ? 70 years, advanced pathologic stage, positive margin, poorly differentiated cancer, undifferentiated cancer, adjuvant sequential chemotherapy and radiotherapy, earlier year of diagnosis, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) = 1, CCI ? 2, low income levels, and treatment at a nonmedical center were significant independent poor prognostic factors for all-cause mortality in cervical cancer treated with curative surgery. Adjusted hazard ratios (95% CIs) for patients with cervical ADC who received curative surgery were 2.34 (1.96-2.79), 1.15 (0.89-1.49), and 2.16 (1.75-2.66) compared with cervical SCC for all-cause mortality, LRR, and DM, respectively. This study indicated that curative surgery for cervical ADC was associated with poorer OS and higher DM rates relative to cervical SCC, but no significant differences were identified in LRR.

Stage IA Patients With Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Cannot Benefit From Chemotherapy: A Propensity Score Matching Study.

Project description:Purpose: Adjuvant chemotherapy following resection is recommended by clinical practice guidelines for all patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy among the staging groups of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) for PDAC. Patients and Methods: This retrospective cohort analysis was performed by the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) (2004-2015) database and multi-institutional dataset (2010-2018). Baseline clinicopathologic characteristics of PDAC patients, including age, gender, ethnicity, marital status, education level, county income level, county unemployed rate, insurance status, grade, stage, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, were collected. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The SEER and multi-institutional data were adjusted with 1:1 ratio propensity score matching (PSM). Results: In total, 6,274 and 1,361 PDAC patients were included from the SEER database and multi-institutional dataset, respectively. Regardless of the count of resected lymph nodes, adjuvant chemotherapy prolonged the long-term OS time for stage IB, IIA, IIB, and III patients in both SEER and multi-institutional cohorts. Nevertheless, adjuvant chemotherapy did not provide additional clinical benefits even after a PSM adjustment for stage IA patients in both SEER and multi-institutional cohorts. Conclusion: Adjuvant chemotherapy improved the long-term survival of stage IB, IIA, IIB, and III PDAC patients; however, it demonstrated no survival benefit in stage IA PDAC patients. Thus, adjuvant chemotherapy should not be recommended for stage IA PDAC patients. These would significantly reduce the economic burden of society and improve the life quality of stage IA PDAC patients.

The Role of Chemotherapy in Extraskeletal Osteosarcoma: A Propensity Score Analysis of the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Database.

Project description:BACKGROUND Incidence of extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is extremely low and the prognosis remains unclear. We conducted this study to explore prognostic factors and the role of chemotherapy in ESOS. MATERIAL AND METHODS We screened data from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database (1975-2016). Three hundred ten patients with ESOS were included and 49.4% (107/310) of them underwent chemotherapy. We performed logistic regression analysis to investigate potential factors determining selection of chemotherapy. An inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM)-adjusted Kaplan-Meier curve was created and log-rank test and Cox regression analysis were performed to compare overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients treated with and without chemotherapy. Subgroup analysis also was conducted based on age, tumor site, stage, size, and surgery. RESULTS Chemotherapy in ESOS was not associated with improved OS in the unmatched cohort (HR, 0.764; 95% CI, 0.555-1.051; p=0.098). The insignificant treatment effect of chemotherapy was also noted in IPTW-adjusted (HR, 0.737; 95% CI, 0.533-1.021; p=0.066) and PSM-adjusted (HR, 0.804; 95% CI, 0.552-1.172; p=0.257) Cox regression analysis. The insignificant treatment effect was consistent across all subgroups and there was no significant heterogeneity of chemotherapy effect (all p for interaction >0.05). CONCLUSIONS The study suggested that chemotherapy has no significant benefit on prognosis of patients with ESOS. These findings should be considered when making treatment decisions about patients with ESOS.

Role of Removed Lymph Nodes on the Prognosis of M0 Small-Bowel Neuroendocrine Tumors: a Propensity Score Matching Analysis from SEER Database.

Project description:BackgroundCurrent studies on the number of removed lymph nodes (LNs) and their prognostic value in small-bowel neuroendocrine tumors (SBNETs) are limited. This study aimed to clarify the prognostic value of removed LNs for SBNETs.MethodsSBNET patients without distant metastasis from 2004 to 2017 in the SEER database were included. The optimal cutoff values of examined LNs (ELNs) and negative LNs (NLNs) were calculated by the X-tile software. Propensity score matching (PSM) was done to match patients 1:1 on clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test and multivariable Cox proportional-hazards regression model were used to evaluate the prognostic effect of removed LNs.ResultsThe cutoff values of 14 for ELNs and 9 for NLNs could well distinguish patients with different prognoses. After 1:1 PSM, the differences in clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups were significantly reduced (all P > 0.05). Removal of more than one LN significantly improved the prognosis of the patients (P < 0.001). The number of lymphatic metastasis in the sufficiently radical resection group (SRR, 3.74 ± 3.278, ELN > 14 and NLN > 9) was significantly more than that in the insufficiently radical resection group (ISRR, 2.72 ± 3.19, ELN < 14 or NLN < 9). The 10-year overall survival (OS) of the SRR was significantly better than that of the ISRR (HR = 1.65, P = 0.001, 95% CI: 1.24-2.19).ConclusionBoth ELNs and NLNs can well predict the OS of patients. Systematic removal of more than 14 LNs and more than 9 NLNs can increase the OS of SBNET patients.

No significant relationship exists between tumor size and prognosis in distant metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma: a propensity score matching analysis based on SEER database.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies have shown that tumor size has an impact on the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Whether tumor size is related to the prognosis of distant metastatic HCC is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of tumor size on the prognosis of distant metastatic HCC.MethodsData on patients with HCC were collected from the (SEER) database of surveillance, epidemiology and final results. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to reduce confounding factors and comprehensively evaluate the clinicopathological features and prognosis of distant metastatic HCC.ResultsThere were 189 patients with distant metastatic HCC whose tumor size was ≤ 50 mm and 615 patients with a tumor size > 50 mm. The tumor sizes of distant metastatic HCC patients were associated with race, grade, surgical treatment, N and AFP. The Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the mortality rate of patients with a tumor size > 50 mm was higher than that of patients with a tumor size ≤ 50 mm (p = 0.00062). However, there were no significant differences in mortality rates after adjusting for confounding variables by using propensity score matching (p = 0.23).ConclusionThis propensity score matching study provides the best data in support of the following assertions: tumor size is not an independent prognostic factor for distant metastatic HCC.

Better Prognosis of Gastric Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Than Gastric Adenocarcinoma among Whites in the United States: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis Based on SEER.

Project description:It was generally believed that the prognosis of gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (GNEC) was worse than gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC). However, almost all previous studies compared the prognosis of GNEC and GAC based on East Asians. In this study, we evaluated the clinicopathological features and prognosis of GNEC and GAC in Whites. Patients with GNEC and GAC were identified from 2000 to 2018 in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. We used propensity score matching (PSM) analysis to match the age, sex, TNM stage, and treatments received between GNEC and GAC, then compared the overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in the two types. A total of 392 cases of GNEC and 12,835 cases of GAC in Whites were recognized. After PSM, the 5-year OS rates of GNEC and GAC were 50.3% and 43.0%, respectively (p = 0.010). The 5-year CSS rates of GNEC and GAC were 57.4% and 50.1%, respectively (p = 0.012). Besides, multivariable cox regression analyses showed that GNEC was an independent predictor of improved OS (HR 0.719; 95% CI 0.607-0.853) and CSS (HR 0.691; 95% CI 0.571-0.835) in the matched data. The prognosis of GNEC was better than GAC in Whites, showing significant ethnic differences. Appropriate treatments and follow-up strategies for GNEC in Whites are probably different from East Asians. The potential genetic and molecular mechanisms need to be further explored.

The prognosis of NX stage differentiated thyroid cancer based on propensity score matching and SEER data.

Project description:Few studies have evaluated the prognosis or treatment of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) according to their NX status. This study investigated this issue to provide a new perspective regarding the treatment guidelines for these patients. Data from 92,447 patients with DTC were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004-2013). Survival outcomes were evaluated using Kaplan-Meier analyses with the log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis. The rates of cancer-specific mortality and all-cause mortality (per 1,000 person-years) were significantly higher for patients with NX disease, compared to patients with N0 or N1 disease. Multivariate Cox regression modeling revealed that NX stage was an independent risk factor for cancer-specific mortality compared to N1 stage, but not to N0 stage. Similar results were observed for all-cause mortality. After adjustment using propensity score matching, the cancer-specific and all-cause mortality rates were lower for NX stage compared to N0 stage, whereas no significant difference was observed when comparing the NX stage and N1 stage groups. The unexpectedly poor prognosis of patients with NX stage DTC provides new information that may be relevant for treating these patients.

Survival Benefit of Surgical Treatment for Elderly Patients with Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: A Retrospective Cohort Study in the SEER Database by Propensity Score Matching Analysis.

Project description:Despite a rising trend in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) incidence in the elderly population worldwide, the benefit of surgery for those patients is still controversial. Data from 811 elderly patients diagnosed with non-metastatic ICC were obtained from the US surveillance, epidemiology, and end results (SEER) program database. Propensity score matched (PSM) was conducted for the better balance of baseline. The associations between tumor characteristics and surgery with overall survival (OS) and cancer specific survival (CSS) were estimated using hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). The results showed that ICC patients above 60 years old taking surgery had better OS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.258; 95% CI, 0.205-0.324) and CSS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.239; 95% CI, 0.188-0.303) than patients without surgery. Similar trends in patients above 65 years old, above 70 years old, above 75 years old, and above 80 years old were observed, separately. This benefit was also showed in lymph node-negative (N0) and lymph node-positive (N1) subgroups and N0 patients are more likely to take an advantage from surgery than N1 patients. The different outcomes between surgery and non-surgery suggest that surgical treatment may be recommended for elderly ICC if the tumor is resectable to ensure optimal treatment.
