Studies have reported worse overall survival (OS) for adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC) compared to adenocarcinoma (AC) of the colon, but none have analyzed a national dataset for over 30 years.
The National Cancer Database was queried from 2004 to 2016 for patients with ASC and AC of the colon. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to assess OS. Descriptive variables were evaluated using independent T-test and Chi-square analyses.
332 ASC patients were compared to 496,950 AC patients. AC patients were older than ASC patients (68.6 vs. 64.4 years); p < 0.001. Most ASC cancers presented with stage IV (41.3%) and poorly-differentiated disease (57.5%) compared to AC (22.4% and 17.7%). OS of the ASC cohort was 13.9 months. Median OS for stage IV AC versus stage IV ASC was significantly better (14.1 vs. 8.0 months); p < 0.0001.
This is the largest national database study to compare ASC with AC. Our findings confirm that unlike AC, ASC most frequently presents late stage, as poorly-differentiated lesions, and have worse OS.
已有研究报告称,结肠的腺鳞癌(ASC)总体生存率(OS)较腺癌(AC)差,但尚无研究在 30 多年来分析过全国性数据集。
从 2004 年至 2016 年,国家癌症数据库中检索到 ASC 和结肠 AC 的患者。采用 Kaplan-Meier 生存分析评估 OS。使用独立 T 检验和卡方分析评估描述性变量。
332 例 ASC 患者与 496950 例 AC 患者进行比较。AC 患者比 ASC 患者年龄大(68.6 岁 vs. 64.4 岁);p<0.001。与 AC 相比,大多数 ASC 癌症表现为 IV 期(41.3%)和低分化疾病(57.5%)。ASC 队列的 OS 为 13.9 个月。IV 期 AC 与 IV 期 ASC 的中位 OS 明显更长(14.1 个月 vs. 8.0 个月);p<0.0001。
这是比较 ASC 与 AC 的最大的全国性数据库研究。我们的研究结果证实,与 AC 不同,ASC 最常表现为晚期、低分化病变,且 OS 更差。
