Somatostatin receptors (SSTR) are commonly expressed by neuroendocrine tumors. Expression of SSTR-2a and SSTR-5 may impact symptomatic management; however, the impact on survival is unclear. The aim of this study is to correlate SSTR-2a and SSTR-5 expression in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) with survival. This study is designed to determine the prognostic significance of somatostatin receptors SSTR-2a and SSTR-5 in PNETs. This retrospective cohort study included cases of resected PNETs between 1992 and 2014. Clinical data, histopathology, expression of SSTR and Ki-67 by immunohistochemistry, and long-term survival were analyzed. A total of 99 cases were included in this study. The mean age was 57.8 years (18-87 years) and median tumor size was 25 mm (range 8-160 mm). SSTR-2a and SSTR-5 expression was scored as negative (n = 19, 19.2%; n = 75, 75.8%, respectively) and positive (n = 80, 80.1%; n = 24, 24.2%). The median follow-up was 49 months. SSTR-2a expression was associated with improved overall survival, with cumulative survival rates at 1, 3, and 5 years being 97.5%, 91.5%, and 82.9%, respectively. Univariate analysis demonstrated better survival in SSTR-2a positive patients (log rank P = 0.04). SSTR-5 expression was not associated with survival outcomes (log rank P = 0.94). Multivariate analysis showed that positive SSTR-2a expression is a stronger prognostic indicator for overall survival [Hazard Ratio (HR): 0.2, 95% Confidence interval (CI): 0.1-0.8] compared to high Ki-67 (HR: 0.8, 95% CI: 0.1-5.7). Expression of SSTR-2a is an independent positive prognostic factor for survival in PNETs.
生长抑素受体(SSTR)通常由神经内分泌肿瘤表达。SSTR-2a和SSTR-5的表达可能会影响症状管理;然而,其对生存的影响尚不清楚。本研究的目的是将胰腺神经内分泌肿瘤(PNETs)中SSTR-2a和SSTR-5的表达与生存情况相关联。本研究旨在确定生长抑素受体SSTR-2a和SSTR-5在PNETs中的预后意义。这项回顾性队列研究纳入了1992年至2014年间接受手术切除的PNETs病例。分析了临床数据、组织病理学、免疫组织化学检测的SSTR和Ki-67表达以及长期生存情况。本研究共纳入99例病例。平均年龄为57.8岁(18 - 87岁),肿瘤中位数大小为25 mm(范围8 - 160 mm)。SSTR-2a和SSTR-5表达分别被评为阴性(n = 19,19.2%;n = 75,75.8%)和阳性(n = 80,80.1%;n = 24,24.2%)。中位随访时间为49个月。SSTR-2a表达与总体生存率提高相关,1年、3年和5年的累积生存率分别为97.5%、91.5%和82.9%。单因素分析显示SSTR-2a阳性患者的生存情况更好(对数秩检验P = 0.04)。SSTR-5表达与生存结果无关(对数秩检验P = 0.94)。多因素分析表明,与高Ki-67(风险比[HR]:0.8,95%置信区间[CI]:0.1 - 5.7)相比,SSTR-2a阳性表达是总体生存更强的预后指标[HR:0.2,95% CI:0.1 - 0.8]。SSTR-2a的表达是PNETs生存的独立阳性预后因素。
