Survival Analysis and Prediction Model of ASCP Based on SEER Database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study aims to compare the incidence and clinical and survival characteristics of adenosquamous carcinoma of the pancreas (ASCP) and adenomatous carcinoma of the pancreas (ACP), analyze the survival factors of ASCP and construct a prognostic model.

Method

Patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer from 2000 to 2018 are selected from the SEER database. ASCP and ACP are compared in terms of epidemiology, clinical characteristics and prognosis. Cases are matched in a 1:2 ratio, and survival analysis is performed. The Cox proportional hazard model is used to determine covariates related to overall survival (OS), and an ASCP prognosis nomogram is constructed and verified by consistency index (C-index), calibration chart and decision curve analysis (DCA). The accuracy of the model is compared with that of AJCC.Stage and SEER.Stage to obtain the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

Results

the age-adjusted incidence of ACP increased significantly over time from 2000 to 2008 and from 2008 to 2018 (P < 0.05). APC was 2.01% (95% CI: 1.95-2.21) and 1.08% (95% CI: 0.93-1.25) respectively. The age-adjusted incidence of ASCP increased with time from 2000 to 2018 (P < 0.05) and APC was 3.64% (95% CI: 3.25-4.01).After propensity score matching (PSM), the OS and cancer-specific survival (CSS) of ACP are better than those of ASCP. The survival time of ASCP is significantly improved by the combined treatment of surgery + chemotherapy + radiotherapy, with a median OS of 31 months. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis shows that age, race, surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and tumor size are independent factors affecting the prognosis. DCA and area under the curve (AUC) value shows that the model has good discrimination ability.

Conclusion

The OS prognosis of ASCP is worse than that of ACP, and the nomogram has high accuracy for the prognosis prediction of ASCP.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the incidence of the pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC), to compare the clinical characteristics and overall survival (OS) of patients with PSC and those with other non-small-cell lung cancer (oNSCLC), so as to analyze the factors affecting the OS of patients with PSC and construct a nomogram prediction model.MethodsData of patients with PSC and those with oNSCLC diagnosed between 2004 and 2015 from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database were collected. The age-adjusted incidence of PSC was calculated. The characteristics of patients with PSC and those with oNSCLC were compared, then the patients were matched 1:2 for further survival analysis. Patients with PSC were randomly divided into training set and testing set with a ratio of 7:3. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify the covariates associated with the OS. Significant covariates were used to construct the nomogram, and the C-index was calculated to measure the discrimination ability. The accuracy of the nomogram was compared with the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) clinical stage, and the corresponding area under the curve was achieved.ResultsA total of 1049 patients with PSC were enrolled, the incidence of PSC was slowly decreased from 0.120/100,000 in 2004 to 0.092/100,000 in 2015. Before PSM, 793 PSC patients and 191356 oNSCLC patients were identified, the proportion of male, younger patients (<65 years), grade IV, TNM clinical stage IV was higher in the PSC. The patients with PSC had significantly poorer OS compared with those with oNSCLC. After PSM, PSC still had an extremely inferior prognosis. Age, sex, TNM clinical stage, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and surgery were independent factors for OS. Next, a nomogram was established based on these factors, and the C-indexs were 0.775 and 0.790 for the training and testing set, respectively. Moreover, the nomogram model indicated a more comprehensive and accurate prediction than the TNM clinical stage.ConclusionsThe incidence of PSC was slowly decreased. PSC had a significantly poor prognosis compared with oNSCLC. The nomogram constructed in this study accurately predicted the prognosis of PSC, performed better than the TNM clinical stage.

Project description:Background: Primary liver cancer is a common malignant tumor primarily represented by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The number of elderly patients with early HCC is increasing, and older age is related to a worse prognosis. However, an accurate predictive model for the prognosis of these patients is still lacking. Methods: Data of eligible elderly patients with early HCC in Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 2010 to 2016 were downloaded. Patients from 2010 to 2015 were randomly assigned to the training cohort (n = 1093) and validation cohort (n = 461). Patients' data in 2016 (n = 431) was used for external validation. Independent prognostic factors were obtained using univariate and multivariate analyses. Based on these factors, a cancer-specific survival (CSS) nomogram was constructed. The predictive performance and clinical practicability of our nomogram were validated. According to the risk scores of our nomogram, patients were divided into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk groups. A survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests. Results: Age, race, T stage, histological grade, surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy were independent predictors for CSS and thus were included in our nomogram. In the training cohort and validation cohort, the concordance indices (C-indices) of our nomogram were 0.739 (95% CI: 0.714-0.764) and 0.756 (95% CI: 0.719-0.793), respectively. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year areas under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) showed similar results. Calibration curves revealed high consistency between observations and predictions. In external validation cohort, C-index (0.802, 95%CI: 0.778-0.826) and calibration curves also revealed high consistency between observations and predictions. Compared with the TNM stage, nomogram-related decision curve analysis (DCA) curves indicated better clinical practicability. Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that CSS significantly differed among the three different risk groups. In addition, an online prediction tool for CSS was developed. Conclusions: A web-based prediction model for CSS of elderly patients with early HCC was constructed and validated, and it may be helpful for the prognostic evaluation, therapeutic strategy selection, and follow-up management of these patients.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of study was to screen factors associated with the overall survival of colorectal cancer patients with lymph nodes metastasis who received neoadjuvant therapy and construct a nomogram model.MethodsAll enrolled subjects of the SEER database were randomly assigned to the training and testing group in a ratio of 3:2. The patients of Tangdu Hospital were seemed as validation group. Univariate cox regression analysis, lasso regression and random forest survival were used to screen variables related to the survival of advanced CRC patients received neoadjuvant therapy in the training group. Area under curves were adopted to evaluate the 1,3,5-year prediction value of the optimal model in three cohorts. Calibration curves were drawn to observe the prediction accuracy of the nomogram model. Decision curve analysis was used to assess the potential clinical value of the nomogram model.ResultsA total of 1833 subjects were enrolled in this study. After random allocation, 1055 cases of the SEER database served as the training group, 704 cases as the testing group and 74 patients from our center as the external validation group. Variables were screened by univariate cox regression used to construct a nomogram survival prediction model, including M, age, chemotherapy, CEA, perineural invasion, tumor size, LODDS, liver metastasis and radiation. The AUCs of the model for predicting 1-year OS in the training group, testing and validation group were 0.765 (0.703,0.827), 0.772 (0.697,0.847) and 0.742 (0.601,0.883), predicting 3-year OS were 0.761 (0.725,0.780), 0.742 (0.699,0.785), 0.733 (0.560,0.905) and 5-year OS were 0.742 (0.711,0.773), 0.746 (0.709,0.783), 0.838 (0.670,0.980), respectively. The calibration curves showed the difference between prediction probability of the model and the actual survival was not significant in three cohorts and the decision curve analysis revealed the practice clinical application value. And the prediction value of model was better for young CRC than older CRC patients.ConclusionA nomogram model including LODDS for the prognosis of advanced CRC received neoadjuvant therapy was constructed and verified based on the SEER database and single center practice. The accuracy and potential clinical application value of the model performed well, and the model had better predictive value for EOCRC than LOCRC.
