The study aimed to define the true impact of pancreatic metastases (PM) from renal cell carcinoma on overall survival (OS) in patients treated with first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
Overall, 321 consecutive patients were analysed. The influence of PM on OS was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the log-rank test (unadjusted and adjusted) and two multivariabe Cox proportional hazards regressions (CPHR).
Thirty-four patients (10%) had PM and 287 (90%) had sites of metastasis other than the pancreas; the median OS was 46.1 and 23.1 months, respectively (unadjusted log-rank p=0.020; adjusted log-rank p=0.544). The PM status was an insignificant factor for OS in both CPHR (hazard ratio(HR)=0.84, p=0.603, and HR=0.66, p=0.098).
The presence of PM was not an independent prognostic factor, but was rather an indicator of an indolent course of the disease.
本研究旨在明确肾细胞癌胰腺转移(PM)对接受一线酪氨酸激酶抑制剂治疗患者总生存期(OS)的真实影响。
共分析了321例连续患者。使用Kaplan-Meier估计法和对数秩检验(未调整和调整)以及两个多变量Cox比例风险回归(CPHR)评估PM对OS的影响。
34例患者(10%)发生PM,287例患者(90%)有胰腺以外的转移部位;中位OS分别为46.1个月和23.1个月(未调整对数秩p=0.020;调整对数秩p=0.544)。在两个CPHR中,PM状态对OS均为非显著因素(风险比[HR]=0.84,p=0.603;HR=0.66,p=0.098)。
PM的存在并非独立的预后因素,而是疾病进展缓慢的一个指标。
