Surgical resection of primary tumor improves survival of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with liver metastases.

ABSTRACT: This study investigates survival of patients diagnosed with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with liver metastases based on local treatment on the primary tumor. Patients diagnosed with stage IV PNET between 2010 and 2014 were identified from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results database. Cancer-Specific Survival and Overall Survival were examined. A total of 191 patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with liver metastases were included in this analysis. There were 47 patients (24.6%) who received surgical resection and 144 (75.4%) who did not. Patients with N1 stage was more likely to be treated with surgical resection. The results showed that surgical resection of primary tumor was associated with Cancer-Specific Survival (p = 0.028) and Overall Survival (p = 0.025) benefit. Not receiving surgery, being unmarried and N1 stage are factors associated with poor survival. This study reveals that local treatment on the primary benefits both Cancer-Specific Survival and Overall Survival in PNET patients with LM. This may be suggestive for the management on this patient population.

Project description:ImportanceThe number of patients with small nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-PanNETs) is increasing. However, the role of surgery for small NF-PanNETs remains unclear.ObjectiveTo evaluate the association between surgical resection for NF-PanNETs measuring 2 cm or smaller and survival.Design, setting, and participantsThis cohort study used data from the National Cancer Database and included patients with NF-pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms who were diagnosed between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2017. Patients with small NF-PanNETs were divided into 2 groups: group 1a (tumor size, ≤1 cm) and group 1b (tumor size, 1.1-2.0 cm). Patients without information on tumor size, overall survival, and surgical resection were excluded. Data analysis was performed in June 2022.ExposuresPatients with vs without surgical resection.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was overall survival of patients in group 1a or group 1b who underwent surgical resection compared with those who did not, which was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier estimates and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models. Interactions between preoperative factors and surgical resection were analyzed with a multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression model.ResultsOf the 10 504 patients with localized NF-PanNETs identified, 4641 were analyzed. These patients had a mean (SD) age of 60.5 (12.7) years and included 2338 males (50.4%). The median (IQR) follow-up time was 47.1 (28.2-71.6) months. In total, 1278 patients were in group 1a and 3363 patients were in group 1b. The surgical resection rates were 82.0% in group 1a and 87.0% in group 1b. After adjustment for preoperative factors, surgical resection was associated with longer survival for patients in group 1b (hazard ratio [HR], 0.58; 95% CI, 0.42-0.80; P < .001) but not for patients in group 1a (HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.41-1.11; P = .12). In group 1b, interaction analysis found that age of 64 years or younger, absence of comorbidities, treatment at academic institutions, and distal pancreatic tumors were factors associated with increased survival after surgical resection.Conclusions and relevanceFindings of this study support an association between surgical resection and increased survival in select patients with NF-PanNETs measuring 1.1 to 2.0 cm who were younger than 65 years, had no comorbidities, received treatment at academic institutions, and had tumors of the distal pancreas. Future investigations of surgical resection for small NF-PanNETs that include the Ki-67 index are warranted to validate these findings.

Project description:Background The prognostic prolongation effect of surgical resection in the management of gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (GNEC) with distant metastases was still uncertain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of primary tumor resection (PTR) with outcomes in patients with stage IV GNEC. Methods This retrospective study analyzed patients with distant metastatic GNEC diagnosed between 2000 and 2018 and identified using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patients were divided into PTR and non-PTR groups. The stabilized inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) method was used to reduce the selection bias. Overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) were estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test. Cox-regression analyses (uni- and multivariate) were performed to evaluate factors potentially influencing survival. Results A total of 126 patients with a median follow-up of 79 months were identified. Forty-four patients underwent PTR and 82 patients did not undergo surgery. After the IPTW approach, PTR improved the OS in patients with stage IV GNEC (median OS 12 vs. 6 months, P = 0.010). The 1- and 3-year OS for patients with or without PTR were 43.8% and 34.5%, and 27.9% and 6.5%, respectively. The median CSS was 12 months for patients undergoing PTR and 6 months for those who did not. The 1 and 3-year CSS for patients with or without PTR were 45.1% and 37.0%, and 27.9% and 6.5%, respectively. In IPTW-adjusted Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, PTR was recognized as an independent factor for improved survival after the occurrence of distant metastatic disease [OS: hazard ratio (HR) = 0.305; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.196, 0.475; and CSS: HR = 0.278; 95% CI: 0.171, 0.452]. Conclusion PTR for stage IV GNEC contributes to a better prognosis compared with non-surgery. This study supported the resection of the primary tumor in patients with distant metastatic GNEC.
