Abstract
OBJECTIVE Uterine carcinosarcomas are aggressive, rare biphasic tumors with malignant epithelial and malignant sarcomatous components. The prognostic significance of the presence of extrauterine sarcoma (heterologous component) is controversial. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of heterologous components in uterine carcinosarcomas on disease-free survival, overall survival, and other prognostic factors. METHODS Clinical and histopathological data from patients treated for uterine carcinosarcoma in a tertiary cancer center in Turkey between July 2000 and January 2020 were collected. Independent risk factors affecting overall survival and disease-free survival were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. RESULTS A total of 98 patients were identified. The median follow-up was 21.8 (1.2-233.1) months. In the multivariate analysis, the median overall survival and disease-free survival were 23.8 and 20.7 months in those with homologous mesenchymal components and 17.6 and 9.7 months in those with heterologous mesenchymal components, respectively. It was found that the presence of heterologous mesenchymal components significantly reduced both overall survival and disease-free survival (odds ratio [OR], 2.861; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.196-6.841; p=0.018 and OR, 3.697; 95%CI 1.572-8.695; p=0.003, respectively). In addition, both lymphadenectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy were found to significantly increase overall survival and disease-free survival. Age was found to increase only disease-free survival. CONCLUSION The results obtained in this study showed that the presence of heterologous components in uterine carcinosarcoma is a prognostic factor that adversely affects both overall survival and disease-free survival. Lymphadenectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy have beneficial effects on both overall survival and disease-free survival.

Influence of Clinical and Surgical Factors on Uterine Carcinosarcoma Survival. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051463. [PMID: 36900255 PMCID: PMC10001122 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051463] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to assess the impact of prognostic factors on the survival of patients diagnosed with uterine carcinosarcoma. METHODS A sub-analysis of the SARCUT study, a multicentric retrospective European study, was carried out. We selected 283 cases of diagnosed uterine carcinosarcoma for the present study. Prognosis factors influencing survival were analyzed. RESULTS Significant prognostic factors for overall survival were: incomplete cytoreduction (HR = 4.02; 95%CI = 2.68-6.18), FIGO stages III and IV (HR = 3.21; 95%CI = 1.83-5.61), tumor persistence after any treatment (HR = 2.90; 95%CI = 1.97-4.27), presence of extrauterine disease (HR = 2.62; 95%CI = 1.75-3.92), a positive resection margin (HR = 1.56; 95%CI = 1.05-2.34), age (HR = 1.02; 95%CI = 1.00-1.05), and tumor size (HR = 1.01; 95%CI = 1.00-1.01). Significant prognostic factors for disease-free survival were: incomplete cytoreduction (HR = 3.00; 95%CI = 1.67-5.37), tumor persistence after any treatment (HR = 2.64; 95%CI = 1.81-3.86), FIGO stages III and IV (HR = 2.33; 95%CI = 1.59-3.41), presence of extrauterine disease (HR = 2.13; 95%CI = 1.44-3.17), administration of adjuvant chemotherapy (HR = 1.84; 95%CI = 1.27-2.67), a positive resection margin (HR = 1.65; 95%CI = 1.11-2.44), presence of LVSI (HR = 1.61; 95%CI = 1.02-2.55), and tumor size (HR = 1.00; 95%CI = 1.00-1.01). CONCLUSIONS Incomplete cytoreduction, presence of tumor residual after treatment, advanced FIGO stage, extrauterine disease, and tumor size are significant prognostic factors decreasing disease-free survival and overall survival of patients with uterine carcinosarcoma.

Trends in Gynecologic Carcinosarcoma Based on Analysis of the Surveillance Epidemiology End Result (SEER) Database. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12031188. [PMID: 36769835 PMCID: PMC9917500 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12031188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/01/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Carcinosarcomas (malignant mixed Mullerian tumors) of a female genital organ are rare tumors associated with a poor survival. The purpose of this study was to identify site-specific differences in the incidence and prognosis in carcinosarcomas originating in the uterus, cervix, or ovary. The data of patients with gynecologic carcinosarcomas were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database between 2000 and 2016. The characteristics of gynecologic carcinosarcomas were compared using Pearson X2 and Fisher's exact tests. Kaplan-Meier models were used for cause-specific survival (CSS) analysis. The cohort included 7086 females, including 5731 cases of uterine carcinosarcoma, 161 cervical carcinosarcomas, and 1193 ovarian carcinosarcomas. The age-adjusted incidence rates of uterine, cervical, and ovarian carcinosarcoma were 3.9, 0.1, and 0.6 per 1,000,000, respectively. In the distribution of carcinosarcoma incidence by race, compared with the uterus or cervix, those originating from the ovary were unequally distributed in Caucasians (84.4% versus 69.6%, 67.7%; p < 0.001). The incidence of uterine carcinosarcoma steadily increased over time, from 2.2 in 2000 to 5.5 in 2016 (per 1,000,000), while cervical or ovarian carcinosarcoma showed no significant difference in incidence. The five-year CSS rates based on the site of origin (uterus, cervix, and ovary) were 39.9%, 33.1%, and 25.8%, respectively. The incidence rates of gynecologic carcinosarcoma, especially uterine carcinosarcoma, are gradually increasing. Although uterine carcinosarcoma is associated with a higher incidence than the others, it has a better prognosis compared with ovarian and cervical carcinosarcoma. The survival rates were worst in ovarian carcinosarcoma.

Abstract
Uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) is a highly invasive malignant tumor that originated from the uterine epithelium. Many studies suggested that the abnormal changes of alternative splicing (AS) of pre-mRNA are related to the occurrence and metastasis of the tumor. This study investigates the mechanism of alternative splicing events (ASEs) in the tumorigenesis and metastasis of UCS. RNA-seq of UCS samples and alternative splicing event (ASE) data of UCS samples were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and TCGASpliceSeq databases, several times. Firstly, we performed the Cox regression analysis to identify the overall survival-related alternative splicing events (OSRASEs). Secondly, a multivariate model was applied to approach the prognostic values of the risk score. Afterwards, a coexpressed network between splicing factors (SFs) and OSRASEs was constructed. In order to explore the relationship between the potential prognostic signaling pathways and OSRASEs, we fabricated a network between these pathways and OSRASEs. Finally, validations from multidimension platforms were used to explain the results unambiguously. 1,040 OSRASEs were identified by Cox regression. Then, 6 OSRASEs were incorporated in a multivariable model by Lasso regression. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.957. The risk score rendered from the multivariate model was corroborated to be an independent prognostic factor (P < 0.001). In the network of SFs and ASEs, junction plakoglobin (JUP) noteworthily regulated RALGPS1-87608-AT (P < 0.001, R = 0.455). Additionally, RALGPS1-87608-AT (P = 0.006) showed a prominent relationship with distant metastasis. KEGG pathways related to prognosis of UCS were selected by gene set variation analysis (GSVA). The pyrimidine metabolism (P < 0.001, R = -0.470) was the key pathway coexpressed with RALGPS1. We considered that aberrant JUP significantly regulated RALGPS1-87608-AT and the pyrimidine metabolism pathway might play a significant part in the metastasis and prognosis of UCS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate trends in the incidence and survival of gynecologic carcinosarcoma over the last 35 years and to explore ethnic disparities. STUDY DESIGN Using the Israeli National Cancer Registry database, all cases of gynecologic carcinosarcoma were included (1980-2014). Age at diagnosis, patient's ethnicity and anatomical site were extracted. Age-standardized incidence rates (ASRs) were calculated for 3 time periods (1980-1994, 1995-2004 and 2005-2014). Relative survival was calculated using the Pohar-Perme method. RESULTS Overall, 935 cases of gynecologic carcinosarcomas were diagnosed during 1980-2014. The most common gynecologic anatomical site was the uterus (83.4%). Most cases (66%) were diagnosed at ages 60-80, with median age of 69 years. There was a steady increase in ASRs from 5.6 to 8.2 per million women. Throughout 1980-1994 and 2005-2014, ASRs were significantly higher in the Jewish compared to the Arab population (5.8 vs. 3.1, p = 0.02 and 8.5 vs. 5.2, p = 0.002, respectively). Relative survival rates increased throughout the study period. No significant differences were noted in relative survival between the Jewish and Arab populations (p = 0.18). CONCLUSION The incidence of gynecologic carcinosarcoma increased significantly from 1980 through 2014. Nevertheless, survival rates increased during this time, with no difference in survival between the Jewish and Arab populations.

Abstract
The present study aimed to assess the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of uterine sarcoma cases. A retrospective cohort study with 122 women recruited between 2001 and 2016 was performed. The data regarding epidemiology, clinical presentation, treatment and follow-up were analyzed based on the following histological types: Carcinosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) and adenosarcoma. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, logistic regression and survival curves. The diagnosis of uterine sarcoma exhibited an increasing trend of +1.2 new cases every 2 years (P=0.044) and comprised 10% of all uterine cancer diagnoses. There were 47% carcinosarcomas, 22% leiomyosarcomas, 16% ESS and 14% adenosarcomas. The majority of the women was ≥60 years old (62%). Among the subjects, 77% were postmenopausal, 61% had a body mass index up to 29.9 kg/m2 and 71% presented with a comorbidity. Regression analysis exhibited an association between post menopause and the histological type associated with lower overall survival (OS), namely leiomyosarcoma or carcinosarcoma (odds ratio, 5.45, P<0.001). Stage I malignancy was present in 44% and Stage IV in 22%. The treatment included primary surgery in 78% of the cases, whereas 79% received adjuvant therapy. Only 55 cases achieved disease control and 20 relapsed (36%) with a 5-year OS rate of 33%. The OS was lower for carcinosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma (20%; P=0.003). In summary, the present study indicated that the number of uterine sarcoma cases had increased between 2001 and 2016. The majority of the women were >60 years old and diagnosed in advanced stages. The postmenopausal status was associated with histological types of poor prognosis. The OS was low and worse for patients with carcinosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of adjuvant therapy and other factors associated with the recurrence and survival of patients with uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS). METHODS A total of 102 patients who underwhent surgery for UCS from 1998 to 2017 were included in the analysis. Data were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox proportional hazards regression. RESULTS At 240 months, the actuarial recurrence rate was 34.3%. Distant recurrence was the most common recurrence pattern. Patients with higher CA 125 levels, sarcoma dominance, cervical involvement, advanced stage, no lymphadenectomy, and residual tumour had a significiantly higher risk of recurrence. Five-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 67% and 77%, respectively. FIGO stage was found to be an independent prognostic factor for DFS and OS. Sarcoma dominance was independently associated with decreased OS. CONCLUSION Sarcoma dominance is associated with poor survival in UCS. Adjuvant treatment was not found to affect recurrence or survival. Given this finding, more effective postoperative strategies are needed.

Abstract
Background The role that lymph node dissection (LND) plays in the management of ovarian carcinosarcoma (OCS) is unclear due to its rarity. This study investigated lymph node metastasis (LNM) prevalence in women with early OCS and effects of LND and LNM on survival. Methods Data of women diagnosed with OCS, whose primary tumor was confined to ovaries (American Joint Committee on Cancer [AJCC] T1) or pelvic cavity (AJCC T2), between 1988 and 2010 were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patients were classified into lymphadenectomy (LND [+]) and no lymphadenectomy (LND [−]) groups. Results A total of 363 women were included. The prevalence of LNM was 9.6% in AJCC T1 and 16.3% in AJCC T2. Multivariate analysis showed that LND and AJCC T categories were independent prognostic variables, irrespective of cancer-specific survival (CSS) or overall survival (OS). Subgroup analysis by AJCC T categories revealed that LND (+) group in AJCC T2 had a better survival outcome compared to LND (−) group (CSS, HR [95% CI] = 0.61 [0.43–0.87]; OS, HR [95% CI] = 0.59 [0.42–0.83]). There was no survival difference between groups in AJCC T1 (CSS, HR [95% CI] = 0.96 [0.56–1.65]; OS, HR [95% CI] = 0.88 [0.56–1.38]). Multivariate analysis was further carried out in LND (+) group and demonstrated that LNM and AJCC T2 had poor CSS and OS. Subgroup analysis by AJCC T categories showed that worse survival was observed in LNM (+) group compared to LNM (−) group in AJCC T2 (CSS, HR [95% CI] = 3.62 [1.50–8.73]; OS, HR [95% CI] = 3.71 [1.59–8.68]) but not in AJCC T1 (CSS, HR [95% CI] = 1.78 [0.50–6.37]; OS, HR [95% CI] = 1.97 [0.61–6.39]). Conclusion Regional lymphadenectomy should be performed in patients with AJCC T2 OCS. LND and LNM were not significantly associated with prognosis in AJCC T1 while LNM had a trend toward worse survival.
