To investigate the use and outcomes of adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with advanced-stage low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma following primary cytoreductive surgery.
Patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2015 with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage II-IV low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma who underwent primary debulking surgery with known residual disease status and had at least 1 month of follow-up were identified in the National Cancer Database. Adjuvant chemotherapy was defined as receipt of chemotherapy within 6 months of surgery. Overall survival was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared with the log-rank test. A Cox model was constructed to control for a priori-selected confounders. A systematic review of the literature was also performed.
In total, 618 patients with stage II-IV low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma who underwent primary cytoreductive surgery were identified; 501 (81.1%) patients received adjuvant chemotherapy, while 117 (18.9%) patients did not. The median follow-up of the present cohort was 47.97 months. There was no difference in overall survival between patients who did and did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy (p=0.78; 4-year overall survival rates were 77.5% and 76.1%, respectively). After controlling for patient age, medical co-morbidities, disease stage, and residual disease status, administration of adjuvant chemotherapy was not associated with better overall survival (HR=0.87, 95% CI 0.55 to 1.38). Based on data from three retrospective studies, omission of adjuvant chemotherapy following cytoreductive surgery was not associated with worse progression-free survival benefit (HR=1.25, 95% CI 0.80 to 1.95) for patients with stage III-V low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma.
Adjuvant chemotherapy may not be associated with an overall survival benefit for patients with advanced-stage low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma following primary cytoreductive surgery.
探讨在初次细胞减灭术后,高级别浆液性卵巢癌患者接受辅助化疗的应用和结果。
本研究在美国国家癌症数据库中,选取了 2010 年至 2015 年间被诊断为国际妇产科联合会(FIGO)Ⅱ-Ⅳ期高级别浆液性卵巢癌、接受初次肿瘤细胞减灭术且已知残留疾病状态、并至少有 1 个月随访的患者。辅助化疗定义为术后 6 个月内接受化疗。使用 Kaplan-Meier 方法评估总生存期,并采用对数秩检验进行比较。构建 Cox 模型以控制预先选择的混杂因素。还进行了文献系统评价。
共纳入 618 例接受初次细胞减灭术的Ⅱ-Ⅳ期高级别浆液性卵巢癌患者;501 例(81.1%)患者接受了辅助化疗,117 例(18.9%)患者未接受辅助化疗。本队列的中位随访时间为 47.97 个月。接受与未接受辅助化疗的患者之间的总生存期无差异(p=0.78;4 年总生存率分别为 77.5%和 76.1%)。在控制患者年龄、合并症、疾病分期和残留疾病状态后,辅助化疗的应用与更好的总生存期无关(HR=0.87,95%CI 0.55 至 1.38)。基于三项回顾性研究的数据,细胞减灭术后省略辅助化疗与 III 期至 V 期高级别浆液性卵巢癌患者的无进展生存期获益无差异(HR=1.25,95%CI 0.80 至 1.95)。
对于接受初次细胞减灭术的高级别浆液性卵巢癌患者,辅助化疗可能与总生存期获益无关。
