Association between adherence to posttreatment National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) surveillance guidelines and detection of recurrent uterine cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2024; 181:8-11. [PMID: 38096674 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2023.11.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify correlations between disease recurrence and adherence to NCCN posttreatment surveillance guidelines in patients who develop recurrent uterine cancer. METHODS Retrospective analysis identified patients (n = 60) with recurrent uterine cancer and at least one surveillance visit with a gynecologic oncologist between 2011 and 2020. Adherence to NCCN guidelines and details of recurrence were recorded. RESULTS Recurrent uterine cancer was identified in 60 patients with an average time to recurrence (TTR) of 25 months. Of those, 39 (65%) were adherent to NCCN surveillance guidelines and 36 (60%) were symptomatic at the time of recurrence diagnosis. Asymptomatic recurrence was diagnosed by imaging in 11 (46%), physical exam in 7 (29%), and blood work in 6 (25%) patients. Patients who were adherent to NCCN guidelines were diagnosed with recurrence on average 11 months earlier (p = 0.0336). Adherence was an independent predictor of TTR for all patients regardless of symptoms. There was no significant effect of age, race, primary language, or stage of disease on adherence. CONCLUSION Adherence to NCCN posttreatment surveillance guidelines for uterine cancer is independently associated with an earlier diagnosis of recurrence.

The Global, Regional, and National Uterine Cancer Burden Attributable to High BMI from 1990 to 2019: A Systematic Analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12051874. [PMID: 36902661 PMCID: PMC10003834 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12051874] [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: 01/06/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Uterine cancer (UC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy, and high body mass index (BMI) is a poor prognostic factor for UC. However, the associated burden has not been fully assessed, which is crucial for women's health management and the prevention and control of UC. Therefore, we utilized the Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD) 2019 to describe the global, regional, and national UC burden due to high BMI from 1990 to 2019. The data show that globally, women's high BMI exposure is increasing annually, with most regions having higher rates of high BMI exposure than the global average. In 2019, 36,486 [95% uncertainty interval (UI): 25,131 to 49,165] UC deaths were attributed to high BMI globally, accounting for 39.81% (95% UI: 27.64 to 52.67) of all UC deaths. The age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALY) rate (ASDR) for high BMI-associated UC remained stable globally from 1990 to 2019, with significant differences across regions. Higher ASDR and ASMR were found in higher socio-demographic index (SDI) regions, and lower SDI regions had the fastest estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) for both rates. Among all age groups, the fatal outcome of UC with high BMI occurs most frequently in women over 80 years old.

Anti-tumor effect of Wasabi component, 6-(methylsulfinyl) hexyl isothiocyanate, against endometrial carcinoma cells. Discov Oncol 2023; 14:9. [PMID: 36689027 PMCID: PMC9871149 DOI: 10.1007/s12672-023-00617-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Wasabi is a traditional plant seasoning with an anti-septic function. Recent studies revealed several functions of Wasabi, such as anti-inflammation; however, the anti-tumor effect against endometrial carcinoma (EMC) cells has not been examined. In the present study, we investigated the anti-tumor effect of 6-(methylsulfinyl) hexyl isothiocyanate (6-MITC), a major chemical compound of Wasabi, against various EMC cell lines in vitro and in vivo. METHODS The effect of 6-MITC on cell viability was measured by the WST-1 assay in EMC and HUVEC cells. The impact of 6-MITC oral administration in nude mice was measured to assess the growth of the EMC xenograft and natural killer (NK) cell activity in the spleen. RESULTS The addition of 6-MITC suppressed the proliferation of EMC cells (Ishikawa, HEC265, HEC108, KLE, and HEC1B) dose-dependently, but not HUVEC cells. 6-MITC (5 µM) enhanced the cisplatin sensitivity of EMC cells. 6-MITC induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent fashion in EMC cells other than HEC1B cells and was associated with increased expression of cleaved-caspase3 and decreased expression of BCL2. Oral administration of 6-MITC (2 and 4 µmol/kg) to Ishikawa and HEC1B xenografting mice resulted in a reduced tumor volume compared with the control (P < 0.05, 4 µmol/kg). Immunohistochemical staining of resected tumors revealed increased expression of Ki-67 and reduced cleaved-caspase3. Furthermore, 6-MITC treatment enhanced NK cell activity, especially when administered before tumor xenografting. CONCLUSION These results indicate that 6-MITC has a marked anti-tumor effect against EMC cells and a novel effect to enhance NK cell activity. These effects suggest the therapeutic potential of 6-MITC.

Recurrent Endometrial Cancer: Which Is the Best Treatment? Systematic Review of the Literature. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14174176. [PMID: 36077713 PMCID: PMC9454638 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14174176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 08/26/2022] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Endometrial cancer is the most common gynaecological tumour in developed countries. The aim of this systematic review is to compare different therapeutic strategies in the treatment of endometrial cancer recurrence to evaluate their prognostic and curative effects. The treatment of choice should be assessed according to the relapse location and to the presence of single or multiple lesions. A crucial role is also played by the type of adjuvant treatment received at the time of the first diagnosis. The molecular pattern will also be investigated in future studies. This will make it possible to personalise treatments. Abstract Background: Endometrial cancer is the most common gynaecological tumour in developed countries. The overall rate of relapse has remained unchanged in recent decades. Recurrences occur in approximately 20% of endometrioid and 50% of non-endometrioid cases. The aim of this systematic review is to compare different therapeutic strategies in the treatment of endometrial cancer recurrence to evaluate their prognostic and curative effects based on site and type of recurrence. Methods: This systematic review of literature was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. The study protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42020154042). PubMed, Embase, Chocrane and Cinahl databases were searched from January 1995 to September 2021. Five retrospective studies were selected. Results: A total of 3571 studies were included in the initial search. Applying the screening criteria, 299 articles were considered eligible for full-text reading, of which, after applying the exclusion criteria, 4 studies were selected for the final analysis and included in the systematic review. No studies were included for a quantitative analysis. We divided the results according to the location of the recurrence: locoregional recurrence, abdominal recurrence and extra abdominal recurrence. Conclusion: the treatment of choice should be assessed according to the relapse location and to the presence of single or multiple lesions. A crucial role in the decision-making algorithm is also the type of adjuvant treatment received at the time of the first diagnosis.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to optimize the prognosis of early recurrences of uterine cancer by searching for informative laboratory biomarkers. The study included 343 patients with I-IV stages FIGO endometrial adenocarcinoma the ages of 53 and 76 years. In patients before surgery, as well as 3 and 6 months after the end of primary treatment, the concentration of oncological markers CA-125, HE4, DJ-1, DKK-1 was determined in blood serum by ELISA and electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. We analyzed the predictive informativeness of monitoring markers to assess the risk of early recurrences of cancer within two years after surgery. In patients with uterine cancer with the stage of the disease and the degree of tumor differentiation in the blood serum, the concentration of DJ-1 is changed. With myometrial invasion of more than 50%, increased serum levels of three markers - CA-125, HE4, and DJ-1. Depending on the risk of disease recurrence, the assessment of which was determined by intraoperative and histological characteristics, a difference was revealed in the content of HE4 and DJ-1 markers in the blood. It was found that the risk of early recurrence of uterine cancer increased (p<0,05) when the concentration of CA-125 exceeded the level of 29,3 U/ml, HE4 was above 79,3 pmol/l, DJ-1 was above 90,0 ng/ml and DKK-1 above 47,3 pg/ml 6 months after the end of primary treatment. The highest predictive information value was found for monitoring DJ-1 and HE4 in blood serum, which indicates that they are promising for use in continuous monitoring of the course of cancer.

Abstract
Endometrial carcinoma is the most common gynecological malignancy in Western countries and is expected to increase in the following years because of the high index of obesity in the population. Recently, neural signaling has been recognized as part of the tumor microenvironment, playing an active role in tumor progression and invasion of different solid tumor types. The uterus stands out for the physiological plasticity of its peripheral nerves due to cyclic remodeling brought on by estrogen and progesterone hormones throughout the reproductive cycle. Therefore, a precise understanding of nerve-cancer crosstalk and the contribution of the organ-intrinsic neuroplasticity, mediated by estrogen and progesterone, of the uterine is urgently needed. The development of new and innovative medicines for patients with endometrial cancer would increase their quality of life and health. This review compiles information on the architecture and function of autonomous uterine neural innervations and the influence of hormone-dependent nerves in normal uterus and tumor progression. It also explores new therapeutic possibilities for endometrial cancer using these endocrine and neural advantages.
