Efficacy and Safety of Local Radiotherapy to All Oligometastatic Sites in Elderly Patients with Metachronous Oligometastatic Cancers After Initial Treatment for the Primary Tumor. Cancer Manag Res 2021; 13:9247-9259. [PMID: 34955655 PMCID: PMC8694577 DOI: 10.2147/cmar.s345871] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 12/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Purpose This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of maintenance therapy combined with local radiotherapy at all oligometastatic sites (LRTOS) in elderly patients with metachronous oligometastatic cancers (MOC). Patients and Methods A total of 242 elderly patients with MOC (≤5 metastases) and primary tumor well controlled after definitive treatment was retrospectively analyzed between August 2014 and February 2020 at Beijing Geriatric Hospital and Air Force General Hospital. Patients were divided into maintenance therapy group (maintenance therapy alone) and local radiotherapy group (maintenance therapy combined with LRTOS). Results There were 86 patients in the local radiotherapy group and 156 patients in the maintenance therapy group. The median length of follow-up was 36 months (range, 8.0–62 months). Median overall survival (mOS) was 25 months (95% CI: 21.1–28.9) in the local radiotherapy group and 16 months (95% CI: 14.5–17.6) in the maintenance therapy group (p < 0.001). Multivariate analyses demonstrated that LRTOS (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.49, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35–0.67, p < 0.001), good Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS, HR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.49–0.97, p = 0.032), longer duration between diagnosis of primary tumor and occurrence of progression (HR = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.78–0.97, p = 0.015), and subsequent systemic treatment (HR = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.38–0.72, p < 0.001) were independent predictors of good OS. In patients who did not receive subsequent systemic treatment, their mOS was 21 months (95% CI: 12.8–29.2) for those treated with LRTOS and 14 months (95% CI: 11.4–16.6) for those who did not receive local radiotherapy (p = 0.001). Further multivariate analysis showed that LRTOS was the only independent factor for predicting good OS (HR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.26–0.83, p = 0.010). Patients with metachronous oligometastatic lung cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, and breast cancer had higher survival benefits following LRTOS. Most patients suffered from grade 1–2 toxicities, but no treatment-related death was recorded. Conclusion This retrospective study shows that elderly patients with MOC treated with LRTOS may have better survival outcomes.

Abstract
Background As the population ages, the number of elderly patients with colorectal cancer is increasing year by year. However, older people have rarely been the focus of studies on colorectal cancer. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to carry out a retrospective analysis of this patient subgroup. Methods A retrospective study of clinical data of patients aged over 80 years who died from colorectal cancer in our hospital between 1993 and 2020 was performed. Logistic regression, the Kaplan-Meier method, and a multivariate Cox proportional hazards model were used to analyze the overall survival and treatment outcomes of the patients. Results A total of 87 patients were included in the study. The overall median survival was 45 months. In most patients, the primary lesion was located in the right colon. One-quarter of the patients refused to accept any treatment. Patients with stage IV tumors, who accounted for the largest proportion of the study population, displayed a higher rate of abandoning treatment than did patients of other stages. Almost all patients with stages II and III accepted surgery. Patients who underwent surgery to treat their colorectal cancer had longer survival than those who did not. Conclusions Old age should not be a reason for giving up treatment for colorectal cancer. The treatment of colorectal cancer patients aged 80 years and above requires individualized evaluation and more aggressive treatment to achieve greater benefits.

Treatment guidelines of metastatic colorectal cancer in older patients from the French Society of Geriatric Oncology (SoFOG). Dig Liver Dis 2020; 52:493-505. [PMID: 32029404 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2019.12.145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2019] [Revised: 12/21/2019] [Accepted: 12/23/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Several guidelines dedicated to metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) are available. Since 2013 no recent guidelines are specifically dedicated to older patients and based on a systematic review. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multidisciplinary Task Force with digestive oncologists, geriatricians and methodologists from the SoFOG was formed in 2016 to update recommendations on medical treatment of mCRC based on a systematic review of publications from 2000 to 2018. Search strategy has followed a standardized protocol from the formulation of clinical questions and definition of a search algorithm to the selection of complete articles for recommendations. RESULTS The four selected key questions were: For which older patients with mCRC can we considered: (1) Any chemotherapy, (2) Mono or poly-chemotherapy, (3) Anti-angiogenic therapy, (4) Other targeted therapy. Main recommendations for older patients are: (1) Omission of chemotherapy should be discussed with a geriatrician for patients with severe comorbidities, advanced dementia, uncontrolled psychiatric disorder or severe loss of autonomy. (2) If tumor response is not the main aim, a mono-chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil combined with bevacizumab is recommended as first-line. (3) For patients with symptoms related to metastases or with a planned metastasis ablation, a doublet chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab or anti-EGFR antibody in the context of a RAS wild type tumor is recommended as first-line. Preliminary data suggest that regorafenib may be used, in its registered indication, in patients under 80 with a performance status of 0 and no autonomy alterations and that trifluridine-tipiracil may be used with a tight supervising of hematological function.

[PMID: 28423614 PMCID: PMC5386743 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.15378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2016] [Accepted: 01/11/2017] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been well recognized that the effects of many prognostic factors could change during long-term follow-up. Although marriage has been proven to be a significant prognostic factor for the survival of colon cancer, whether the effect of marriage is constant with time remain unknown. This study analyzed the impact of marital status on the mortality of colon cancer patients with an extended Cox model that allowed for time-varying effects. METHODS We identified 71,955 patients who underwent colectomy between 2004 and 2009 to treat colon adenocarcinoma from the Surveilance, Epidemiology and End Results Database. The multivariate extended Cox model was used to evaluate the effect of marital status on all-cause mortality, while the Fine-Gray competing risks model was used for colon cancer-specific mortality, with death from other causes as the competing risk. RESULTS The unmarried patients carried a 1.37-fold increased risk of all-cause mortality compared with the married patients (95%CI: 1.33-1.40; p<0.001), and the hazard ratio remained constant over time. Being unmarried was at a higher risk of death from colon adenocarcinoma as well as death from other causes. Four variables including tumor site, tumor grade, sex and TNM stage were proved to have time-varying effects on survival. CONCLUSIONS Marriage is a dependent prognosis factor for survival of surgically treated colon adenocarcinoma patients. Psychological interventions are suggested to improve receipt of treatment among unmarried patients, as their poor survival may be due to the inefficient treatment.

PLoS One 2015; 10:e0130345. [PMID: 26115511 PMCID: PMC4482546 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0130345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2014] [Accepted: 05/19/2015] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Visible para-aortic lymph nodes of ≥2 mm in size are common metastatic patterns of colorectal cancer (CRC) seen on imaging. Their prognostic value, however, remains inconclusive. We aimed to assess the prognostic role of visible para-aortic lymph nodes (PALNs). Methods Patients with confirmed pathologic diagnosis of CRC were enrolled. Correlations among clinicopathologic variables were analyzed using the χ2 test. The Cox proportional hazards model was applied for univariate and multivariate analyses. Survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. A prognostic model for visible PALNs in CRC patients was established. Results In total, 4527 newly diagnosed CRC patients were enrolled. Patients with visible PALNs had inferior overall survival compared to those without visible PALNs (5-year overall survival, 67% vs. 76%, P = 0.015). Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (hazard ratio = 1.865, P = 0.015); nodal disease (pN+) status (hazard ratio = 2.099, P = 0.006); elevated preoperative serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels (hazard ratio = 2.263, P < 0.001); and visible PALNs ≥10 mm (hazard ratio = 1.638, P = 0.031) were independent prognostic factors for patients with visible PALNs. If each prognostic factor scored one point, 5-year overall survival of lower- (prognostic score 0–1), intermediate- (prognostic score 2), and high- (prognostic score 3–4) risk groups were, 78%. 54%, and 25% respectively (P < 0.001). Conclusions The prognostic model, which included LVI, pN+ status, preoperative serum CEA level, and the size of visible PALNs, could effectively distinguish the outcome of patients with visible PALNs.
