Recurrence-Free Survival and Disease-Specific Survival in Patients with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms: A Single-Center Retrospective Study of 413 Patients. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 16:100. [PMID: 38201527 PMCID: PMC10777990 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16010100] [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: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The prognosis and impact of different prognostic factors in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNEN) remain controversial. AIM To investigate prognostic factors for recurrence-free survival and disease-specific survival in patients with pNEN, divided into three groups: patients undergoing surveillance (tumor size < 2 cm, group 1), patients followed after curative-intended surgery (group 2), and patients with unresectable disease or residual tumors after resection (group 3). METHOD A single-center retrospective study including consecutive patients over a 20-year period. Multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors. RESULTS 413 patients were included, with a mean (SD) age of 62 ± 14 years. In group 1 (n = 51), median (IQR) follow-up was 29 (21-34) months, and tumor size was 1.0 (0.8-1.4) cm. One progressed and had a tumor resection. In group 2 (n = 165), follow-up 59 (31-102) months, median tumor size 2 (1.2-3.4) cm, median Ki-67 index 5 (3-10)%, the 5-year recurrence rate was 21%. Tumor size (p < 0.001), Ki-67 index (p = 0.02), and location in the pancreatic head (p < 0.001) were independent risk factors. In group 3 (n = 197), follow-up 19 (6-46) months, median tumor size 4.2 (2.6-7.0) cm, Ki-67 index 17 (9-64)%, the median disease-specific survival was 22 (6-75) months-99 in NET G1; 54 in NET G2; 14 in NET G3; and 6 months in neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC). Age (p = 0.029), plasma chromogranin A (p = 0.014), and proliferation, expressed by grade (p = 0.001) and Ki-67 index (p < 0.001), were risk factors. CONCLUSION Growth in pNET < 2 cm requiring surgery was observed in 1/51. Tumor size, Ki-67 index, and location in the head were prognostic factors for disease recurrence, while age, plasma chromogranin A, and proliferation predicted mortality in patients with unresectable disease or residual tumors after resection.

Metabolic intervention by low carbohydrate diet suppresses the onset and progression of neuroendocrine tumors. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:597.

Abstract
Insulin signaling often plays a role in the regulation of cancer, including tumor initiation, progression, and response to treatment. In addition, the insulin-regulated PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway plays an important role in the regulation of islet cell proliferation, and this pathway is hyperactivated in human non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs). We, therefore, investigated the effect of a very low carbohydrate diet (ketogenic diet) on a mouse model that develops non-functional PanNETs to ask how reduced PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling might affect the development and progression of non-functional PanNET. We found that this dietary intervention resulted in lower PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling in islet cells and a significant reduction in PanNET formation and progression. We also found that this treatment had a significant effect on the suppression of pituitary NET development. Furthermore, we found that non-functional PanNET patients with lower blood glucose levels tend to have a better prognosis than patients with higher blood glucose levels. This preclinical study shows that a dietary intervention that results in lower serum insulin levels leads to lower insulin signals within the neuroendocrine cells and has a striking suppressive effect on the development and progression of both pancreatic and pituitary NETs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although glucose has a well-recognized protumoral role and the pancreas is a critical organ in adjusting glucose metabolism, the clinical value of hyperglycemia in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) remains largely unidentified. METHODS A retrospective study including 335 patients with pathologically confirmed pNENs was conducted. A baseline fasting blood glucose concentration ≥5.6 mmol/L was defined as hyperglycemia (otherwise, normal). Survival and regression analyses were performed. RESULTS Compared with patients with normal glucose, patients with hyperglycemia (47.8%) had a higher proportion of preexisting diabetes mellitus (DM) (36.9% vs. 4.6%, p < 0.001), lymph node involvement (31.0% vs. 14.6%, p = 0.002), distant metastasis (34.4% vs. 22.9%, p = 0.019), and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) ≥ 37 U/mL (16.6% vs. 7.2%, p = 0.009). Hyperglycemia was associated with CA19-9 ≥ 37 U/mL (Odds Ratio (OR) = 3.19, 95% CI: 1.11-9.17, p = 0.031), lymph node involvement (OR = 2.32, 95% CI: 1.02-5.28, p = 0.045), nonfunctional tumors (OR = 9.90, 95% CI: 2.11-46.34, p = 0.004), and preexisting diabetes (OR = 18.24, 95% CI: 4.06-81.95, p < 0.001). Hyperglycemia was an independent determinant for overall survival in the multivariate analysis (hazard ratio (HR) = 2.65, 95% CI: 1.31-5.34, p = 0.006). CONCLUSION Hyperglycemia is an independent predictor of overall survival and is associated with preexisting DM or lymphatic metastasis in patients with pNENs. Patients with hyperglycemia and resectable pNENs may benefit from radical resection with dissection of regional lymph nodes.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients submitted to curative surgery for non-functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NF-PanNENs) exhibit a variable risk of disease relapse. Aims of this meta-analysis were to estimate the rate of disease recurrence and to investigate the risk factors for disease relapse in patients submitted to curative surgery for NF-PanNENs. METHODS Medline/Pubmed and Web of Science databases were searched for relevant studies. A meta-regression analysis was performed to investigate the source of recurrence rate heterogeneity. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were used to assess the effect of each possible prognostic factor on disease-free survival. RESULTS Fifteen studies, involving 2754 patients submitted to curative surgery for NF-PanNENs, were included. The pooled rate of disease recurrence was 21% (95% CI 15-26%). Study quality (Odds ratio, OR 0.94, P = 0.016) and G3-PanNENs rate (OR 2.18, P = 0.040) independently predicted the recurrence rate variability. Nodal metastases (HR 1.63, P < 0.001), tumor grade G2-G3 (G1 versus G2: HR 1.72, P < 0.001, G1 versus G3 HR 2.57, P < 0.001), microvascular (HR 1.25, P = 0.046) and perineural (HR 1.29, P = 0.019) invasion were identified as significant prognostic factors. T stage (T1-T2 versus T3-T4, P = 0.253) and status of resection margins (R0 versus R1, P = 0.173) did not show any significant relationship with NF-PanNENs recurrence. CONCLUSION Disease relapse occurs in approximately one out of five patients submitted to curative surgery for NF-PanNENs. Nodal involvement, tumor grade, microvascular and perineural invasion are relevant prognostic factors, that should be taken into account for follow-up and for possible trials investigating adjuvant or neoadjuvant treatments.

Abstract
Background Fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels are associated with the risk of pancreatic cancer. Aim To examine the relationship between perioperative glucose and HbA1c levels and prognosis in patients with pancreatic cancer. Methods PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were queried for potentially eligible studies published up to May 2021. The exposures were perioperative fasting glucose and HbA1c levels. The primary outcome was survival. The secondary outcome was complications. All analyses were performed using the random-effects model. Results Ten studies (48,424 patients) were included. The pre-operative (HR=1.10, 95%CI: 0.89-1.35; I2 = 45.1%, Pheterogeneity=0.078) and postoperative (HR=1.19, 95%CI: 0.92-1.54; I2 = 67.9%, Pheterogeneity=0.001) blood glucose levels were not associated with the survival to pancreatic cancer. Similar results were observed for HbA1c (HR=1.09, 95%CI: 0.75-1.58; I2 = 64.2%, Pheterogeneity=0.039), fasting blood glucose (FBG)/HbA1c (HR=1.16, 95%CI: 0.67-1.68; I2 = 0.0%, Pheterogeneity=0.928), and FBG (HR=1.75, 95%CI: 0.81-3.75; I2 = 79.4%, Pheterogeneity=0.008). Pre-operative blood glucose levels were not associated with postoperative complications (OR=0.90, 95%CI: 0.52-1.56), but postoperative glucose levels were associated with postoperative complications (OR=3.06, 95%CI: 1.88-4.97; I2 = 0.0%, Pheterogeneity=0.619). Conclusion Blood glucose, FBG, and HbA1c levels are not associated with the survival of patients with pancreatic cancer. Postoperative blood glucose levels could predict postoperative complications.
