Although the eighth edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system (AJCC8) provides improved prognosis stratification of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) over AJCC7, T3 has a variable prognosis.
To define prognostic subgroups in T3-AJCC8 CSCC.
Retrospective cohort study of 196 primary T3-AJCC8 CSCCs. We conducted multidimensional scaling analysis using the 6 risk factors that define T3 CSCCs. The prognoses of the groups obtained were analyzed by means of competing risk analysis.
Group 1 was characterized by a tumor thickness greater than 6 mm (without invasion beyond the subcutaneous fat), alone or in combination with a tumor width of at least 4 cm. Group 2 was characterized by the presence of either invasion beyond the subcutaneous fat or by the involvement of nerves (≥0.1 mm, or deeper than the dermis). Group 3 was characterized by the combination of both T3b risk factors, or of 3 or more risk factors. Group 3 (tentatively named T3c) patients had the worst prognosis for disease-specific poor outcome events and major events, Group 2 (T3b) had intermediate risk, and Group 1 (T3a) had the best prognosis (disease-specific poor outcome events: hazard ratio [HR], 1.94; P = .00009; major events: HR, 2.55; P = .00001; disease-specific death: HR, 10.25; P = .0009).
Retrospective study.
There is statistically significant evidence that T3-AJCC8 may be classified into distinct prognostic subgroups.
尽管第八版美国癌症联合委员会分期系统(AJCC8)在预测皮肤鳞状细胞癌(CSCC)预后方面优于 AJCC7,但 T3 期具有可变的预后。
定义 T3-AJCC8 CSCC 的预后亚组。
回顾性队列研究了 196 例原发性 T3-AJCC8 CSCC。我们使用定义 T3 CSCC 的 6 个危险因素进行多维尺度分析。通过竞争风险分析分析获得的组的预后。
第 1 组的特征是肿瘤厚度大于 6mm(不侵犯皮下脂肪),单独或与至少 4cm 的肿瘤宽度结合。第 2 组的特征是存在皮下脂肪侵犯或神经受累(≥0.1mm,或真皮更深)。第 3 组的特征是同时存在 T3b 危险因素,或存在 3 个或更多危险因素。第 3 组(暂定名为 T3c)患者的疾病特异性不良结局事件和主要事件的预后最差,第 2 组(T3b)的风险中等,第 1 组(T3a)的预后最好(疾病特异性不良结局事件:风险比[HR],1.94;P =.00009;主要事件:HR,2.55;P =.00001;疾病特异性死亡:HR,10.25;P =.0009)。
回顾性研究。
有统计学证据表明,T3-AJCC8 可能被分为不同的预后亚组。
