[PMID: 38373385 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2024.107977] [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: 09/15/2023] [Revised: 01/01/2024] [Accepted: 01/20/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This multicenter study aimed to investigate the disparity in clinical features and prognosis among different histopathologic subtypes of endocervical adenocarcinoma (EA) based on the 2014 World Health Organization (WHO) classification. METHODS We retrieved and analyzed data from the Chinese Four C Database between 2004 and 2018. 672EA patients with radical hysterectomies from 32 institutions were retrospectively reviewed. Clinicopathologic characteristics, five-year overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared based on histological subtypes. RESULTS The 5-year DFS and OS rates for usual, endometrioid, mucinous, gastric, villoglandular, clear cell/serous/mesonephric EAs were as follows: 81.3 %, 89.1 %, 63.0 %, 35.6 %, 88.6 %, 79.9 %, respectively (P < 0.0001); 87.4 %, 96.6 %, 74.7 %, 34.0 %, 96.7 %, 86.3 %, respectively (P < 0.0001). Gastric- and mucinous-type exhibited a higher frequency of lymph node metastasis, deep stromal invasion, uterine corpus invasion, and recurrence than the usual -type (recurrence rate:50.00 % vs 29.90 % vs 15.50 %, P < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis revealed gastric-type was significantly associated with inferior DFS (HR,3.018; 95 % CI, 1.688-5.397; P < 0.0001) and OS(HR, 4.114; 95 % CI, 2.002-8.453; P < 0.0001). Furthermore, compared to the usual -type, mucinous-type demonstrated significantly worse DFS (HR, 1.773; 95 % CI,1.123-2.8; P = 0.014) and OS (HR, 2.168; 95 % CI,1.214-3.873; P = 0.009) whereas endometrioid-type was an identified as independent factor for better DFS (HR, 0.365; 95 % CI,0.143-0.928; P = 0.034). Villoglandular subtype displayed similar features and favorable prognosis as the usual type. CONCLUSIONS Relevant clinical features and prognosis varied significantly among histological subtypes of EA, thus offering valuable guidance for the development of subtype-specific treatment strategies to optimize EA management.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the long-term survival outcomes of laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) and open radical hysterectomy (ORH) in International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 early-stage cervical adenocarcinoma. METHODS Based on the clinical diagnosis and treatment for cervical cancer in mainland China (Four C) database, the medical records of 1098 patients with FIGO 2018 early-stage cervical adenocarcinoma were retrospectively reviewed. Long-term and short-term survival outcomes of the two groups were compared using a multivariate Cox regression model and the log-rank method in the whole study population and after propensity score matching. RESULTS There was no difference in disease-free survival (hazard ratio [HR] 0.921, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.532-1.595, p = 0.770) and overall survival (HR 1.168, 95% CI: 0.526-2.592, p = 0.702) between LRH (n = 468) and ORH (n = 468) in the risk-adjusted analysis. LRH resulted in significantly lower estimated blood loss (342.7 vs. 157.5 mL, p < 0.001) and shorter postoperative anal exhaust time (2.8 vs. 2.5 days, p < 0.001) in risk-adjusted analysis. The overall rates of intraoperative complications (2.4% vs. 4.3%, p = 0.100) and postoperative complications (7.5% vs. 6.2%, p = 0.437) showed no significant difference between the two groups. However, the LRH group had a significantly higher incidence of ureter injury (0.4% vs. 2.4%, p = 0.012) and great vessel injury (0.0% vs. 0.9%, p = 0.045) compared to the other group. No statistical variation in the site of recurrence was observed between the two groups (p = 0.613). CONCLUSIONS LRH has comparable survival outcomes with ORH and was associated with earlier recovery in FIGO 2018 early-stage adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix. However, the LRH group had higher risk of ureter injury and great vessel injury.

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand 2023; 102:1045-1052. [PMID: 37338046 PMCID: PMC10378020 DOI: 10.1111/aogs.14612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION FIGO 2018 IIIC remains controversial for the heterogeneity of its prognoses. To ensure a better management of cervical cancer patients in Stage IIIC, a revision of the FIGO IIIC version classification is required according to local tumor size. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled cervical cancer patients of FIGO 2018 Stages I-IIIC who had undergone radical surgery or chemoradiotherapy. Based on the tumor factors from the Tumor Node Metastasis staging system, IIIC cases were divided into IIIC-T1, IIIC-T2a, IIIC-T2b, and IIIC-(T3a+T3b). Oncologcial outcomes of all stages were compared. RESULTS A total of 63 926 cervical cancer cases were identified, among which 9452 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were included in this study. Kaplan-Meier pairwise analysis showed that: the oncology outcomes of I and IIA were significantly better than of IIB, IIIA+IIIB, and IIIC; the oncology outcome of IIIC-(T1-T2b) was significantly better than of IIIA+IIIB and IIIC-(T3a+T3b); no significant difference was noted between IIB and IIIC-(T1-T2b), or IIIC-(T3a+T3b) and IIIA+IIIB. Multivariate analysis indicated that, compared with IIIC-T1, Stages T2a, T2b, IIIA+IIIB and IIIC-(T3a+T3b) were associated with a higher risk of death and recurrence/death. There was no significant difference in the risk of death or recurrence/death between patients with IIIC-(T1-T2b) and IIB. Also, compared with IIB, IIIC-(T3a+T3b) was associated with a higher risk of death and recurrence/death. No significant differences in the risk of death and recurrence/death were noted between IIIC-(T3a+T3b) and IIIA+IIIB. CONCLUSIONS In terms of oncology outcomes of the study, FIGO 2018 Stage IIIC of cervical cancer is unreasonable. Stages IIIC-T1, T2a, and T2b may be integrated as IIC, and it might be unnecessary for T3a/T3b cases to be subdivided by lymph node status.

Comparison between laparoscopic and abdominal radical hysterectomy for cervical adenosquamous carcinoma at stage IA2 to IIA2: A multicenter retrospective study. J Obstet Gynaecol Res 2023. [PMID: 36919234 DOI: 10.1111/jog.15633] [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: 11/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to compare the 5-year oncological outcomes of laparoscopic/abdominal radical hysterectomy (LRH/ARH) in patients with cervical adenosquamous carcinoma at stage IA2 to IIA2 based on the 2009 or 2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging criteria. METHODS Based on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer in China (Four C) database, Cox risk regression models were applied to analyze tumor prognosis treated with ARH/LRH in FIGO 2009 and 2018 IA2-IIA2 patients and stratified findings according to tumor diameter (≤4 and >4 cm subgroups). And to avoid bias, propensity score matching (PSM) was also used for the cohort study. RESULTS Based on FIGO 2009 staging criteria (n = 474), there was no significant difference between the ARH and LRH groups in 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) or overall survival (OS). Lymph node metastasis was a risk factor for 5-year DFS in this stage. After PSM, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) was an independent risk factor for 5-year OS in the tumors ≤4 cm subgroup. Based on FIGO2018 staging criteria (n = 322), cervical interstitial infiltration depth was an independent risk factor for 5-year OS in the total population and the tumor diameter ≤4 cm subgroup. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic surgery was not a risk factor affecting the oncologic prognosis of adenosquamous carcinoma of the cervix based on either FIGO 2009 or 2018 staging of stage IA2-IIA2. In addition, LRH may be considered for patients with early-stage cervical adenosquamous carcinoma.

Abstract
Cervical cancer (CC), although being a potentially avoidable disease, is the second most often diagnose gynecological cancer, with at minimum 530,000 new instant reported each year, and optimism for CC remains poor. Nearly half of individuals with locally advanced cervical cancer have a poor pathological response to standard therapy. As a result, research into the molecular pathogenesis of cervical cancer and associated therapeutic targets is a must. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are possible biomarkers in cervical cancer; elevations or reductions in many distinct miRNAs discovered in individuals with this illness indicate that miRNA could contain a function to play in the illness's pathogenesis. Nevertheless, little is known about their significance in detecting individuals who do not respond to traditional therapy. As a consequence, the intention of this study is to look at the relationship among the synthesis of miRNAs (miR 217 and miR-140-3p), which can be utilized as molecular biomarkers to predict pathological responses in cervical cancer patients after radiation and chemotherapy. Various analytical techniques were used to analyze the data, including quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), growth and apoptosis analysis, western blot analysis, luciferase reporter gene analysis, immunohistochemistry, and statistical analysis. The results show that such miRNAs participate a crucial responsibility in CC cell proliferation inhibition. They might be a new therapeutic target for microRNA-mediated cell proliferation inhibition in cervical cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the rate of pathological response rate, and the oncological outcomes of preoperative brachytherapy (PBT) in early-stage cervical cancer. METHODS A systematic literature review was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) statement. MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Scopus databases were searched from inception until April 2022. Only English and French articles were included. Studies containing data about pathology response or oncological outcomes among patients who received PBT as compared to those who underwent up-front surgery in early-stage cervical cancer were included. This study was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42022319036). RESULTS Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria, 3 randomized controlled trials (RCT), and 10 non-randomized studies (NRS). The 5-year survival was significantly higher in the PBT group compared with the up-front surgery group (OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.11-2.84, I2 = 0%) in the NRS. Recurrence rate was significantly lower in the PBT group compared with in up-front surgery group in the analysis of the RCT but not in NRS, (OR 0.34, 95% CI 0.13-0.91, I2 not applicable) and (OR 0.72, 95% CI 0.26-1.95, I2 = 51%) respectively. PBT was associated with a statistically significant lower rate of positive margins (OR 0.28, 95% CI 0.09-0.89; I2 = 42%) in the RCT and with a significantly higher rate of complete pathology response (CPR) in the RCT analysis (OR 2.55, 95% CI 1.11-5.85, I2 = 0%) and in the NRS (OR 9.64, 95% CI 1.88-49.48, I2 = 76%) compared with the up-front surgery group. CONCLUSION Preoperative brachytherapy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer could improve pathologic and oncologic outcomes, but it should be assessed in high-quality randomized controlled trials before its implementation in clinical practice.

Abstract
Objective To compare survival outcomes of type B radical hysterectomy (RH) and type C RH in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. Methods We retrospectively identified continuous cervical cancer patients with FIGO stage IA2-IB2 and IIA1 who underwent either type B RH (n = 278) or type C RH (n = 148) performed by the same group of surgeons between 2009 and 2018. Propensity score matching was carried out to minimize selection biases. Intraoperative photographs, immediate postoperative questionnaire and specimen measurements were used to accurately determine the extensive of surgery. We further narrowed the study population to patients with specific histological subtypes and patients with deep stromal invasion. Results The median follow-up period was 42.41 ± 24.60 months. After adjusting, no differences in the 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were found between the type B group and the type C group (OS: 87.8% vs. 89.4%, P = 0.814; DFS: 84.9% vs. 85.6%, P = 0.898). In further analysis of patients with squamous-cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, similar 5-year OS and DFS rates were found between two groups (OS: 88.7% vs. 97.1%, P = 0.250; DFS: 84.7% vs. 92.3%, P = 0.541). Consistent results were found in patients with deep stromal invasion (OS: 81.8% vs. 100%, P = 0.144; DFS: 82.8% vs. 100%, P = 0.128). Conclusions Type B RH could be used to treat FIGO stage IA2-IB2 and IIA1 cervical cancer to get equivalent 5-year OS and DFS. Further randomized controlled trials are warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the long-term oncological outcome of neoadjuvant chemotherapy before radical surgery (NCRS) and definitive chemoradiotherapy (DR) for stage IB2 and IIA2 cervical squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS The clinical outcome of 480 patients with stage IB2 and IIA2 cervical cancer (308 clinical responders, 111 clinical non-responders, 61 unclear) who underwent NCRS (and subgroup assessments) were compared with those of 233 patients who underwent DR. RESULTS The clinical response rate was 73.5% in the NCRS group. Multivariate COX regression analyses revealed that NCRS was not correlated with the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate (p = 0.067) or disease-free survival (DFS) rate (p = 0.249). In a subgroup of NCRS, the clinical response group was also shown to be a protective independent factor of 5 year OS rate compared to the DR group (aHR, 0.403; 95% CI, 0.209-0.777), but had no correlation with the 5 year DFS rate (p = 0.089). On the other hand, the clinical non-response group had no correlation with the 5 year OS rate (p = 0.780) or DFS rate (p = 0.669). CONCLUSION Clinical responders who underwent NCRS exhibited a better oncological outcome compared to those who underwent DR.

Combining nutritional status with TNM stage: a physiological update on gastric cancer staging for improving prognostic accuracy in elderly patients. Int J Clin Oncol 2022; 27:1849-1858. [PMID: 36255516 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-022-02250-5] [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: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system does not take the patient's physiological status into consideration, reportedly making it insufficient for predicting survival outcomes in frail cancer patients. We assessed the prognostic values of several nutrition- and inflammation-based markers in combination with pTNM stage in gastric carcinoma (GC) patients. METHODS In total, 1166 patients undergoing GC surgery were studied. The prognostic capabilities of 3 nutritional and 3 systemic inflammatory parameters were examined. We developed new staging systems by adding these markers, individually, to the pTNM stage. We then compared the prognostic capabilities of our new systems with that of pTNM stage alone. We also assessed the prognostic values of these systems by dividing our patient cohort into elderly (≥ 65 years) and non-elderly groups. RESULTS Our novel staging systems had greater predictive capabilities for overall survival (OS) than pTNM alone. Most notably, survival discrimination was significantly increased for pTNM when it was combined with albumin-based nutritional indices (geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI)). Our new staging systems incorporating GNRI or PNI into pTNM had significantly better predictive capability for OS, especially non-GC mortality, than pTNM alone in elderly GC patients. In the non-elderly patients, the predictive capabilities of the new staging systems for OS differed minimally from that of pTNM. CONCLUSIONS The predictive capability of pTNM stage was particularly enhanced when this parameter was combined with nutritional markers. Our new approach aids in predicting survival outcomes, especially non-GC-related death, in elderly GC patients.

Front Oncol 2022; 12:800049. [PMID: 35494051 PMCID: PMC9046906 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.800049] [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: 10/22/2021] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the best treatment strategy for International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2018 stage IIA1 cervical cancer patients by comparing the survival outcomes of two treatment methods: abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) with standard postoperative therapy and radio-chemotherapy (R-CT). Methods Patients with FIGO2018 stage IIA1 cervical cancer who underwent ARH or received R-CT were screened from the clinical diagnosis and treatment for cervical cancer in China (Four C) database. The recurrence cases between the two groups were analyzed. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of patients diagnosed with stage IIA1 cervical cancer in 47 hospitals in mainland China between 2004 and 2018 were compared by using propensity score matching (PSM). Results A total of 724 patients met the inclusion criteria. In the total study population, The R-CT group had higher recurrence (22.8% for the R-CT group and 11.2% for the ARH group, P<0.001) rates compared to the ARH group.The 5-year OS and DFS of the ARH group (n=658) were significantly higher than those of the R-CT group (n=66) (OS: 85.9% vs. 71.2%, P=0.009; DFS: 79.2%vs. 70.5%, P=0.027). R-CT was associated with worse 5-year OS (HR=3.19, 95% CI: 1.592-6.956, P=0.001) and DFS (HR=2.089, 95% CI: 1.194-3.656, P=0.01). After 1:2 PSM, the 5-year OS and DFS of the ARH group (n=126) were significantly higher than those of the R-CT group (n=64) (OS:88.9% vs. 70.1%, P=0.04; DFS:82.8% vs. 69.8%, P=0.019). R-CT was still associated with worse 5-year OS (HR=2.391, 95% CI: 1.051-5.633, P=0.046) and DFS (HR=2.6, 95% CI: 1.25-5.409, P=0.011). Conclusion Our study demonstrated that for stage FIGO2018 stage IIA1 cervical cancer patients, ARH offers better oncological outcomes than R-CT.

The Overall Quality of Life and Oncological Outcomes Following Radical Hysterectomy in Cervical Cancer Survivors Results from a Large Long-Term Single-Institution Study. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14020317. [PMID: 35053481 PMCID: PMC8773665 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14020317] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2021] [Revised: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 01/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Romania maintains its regrettably leading position in terms of mortality caused by cervical cancer in Europe, with any available studies evaluating the oncological outcomes and quality of life of these patients. Our study could provide a historical comparison for future randomized controlled trials in Eastern Europe needed to confirm these results. Abstract (1) Background: Cervical cancer patients have been found to have worse quality of life (QoL) scores due to cancer treatment, not only when compared to the general population, but also when compared to other gynecological cancer survivors. In Eastern European developing countries, the health care system often cannot afford the uppermost standardized treatment for these patients. In the absence of a comparable study in our country, the authors’ aim for this retrospective cross-sectional observational study was to evaluate the overall survival (OS) and the QoL o cervical cancer survivors; (2) Methods: 430 patients were analyzed. The first objective is to evaluate the OS rates of patients with cervical cancer stages IA2 to IIB undergoing radical hysterectomy (RH) +/− neoadjuvant or adjuvant radiotherapy +/− chemoradiotherapy treatment combinations. The second objective is to assess their QoL, using two standardized questionnaires issued by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC), namely QLQ-C30 and QLQ-CX24. (3) Results: The mean age of the participants was 51 years (22–76) and the average follow-up time was 65 months (2–128). At the time of the analysis, 308 out of 430 patients were alive, with a mean five-year OS of 72.4%. The multivariate Cox regression analysis identified stage IIB, parametrial invasion, and the lymph node metastases as independent prognostic risk factors negatively impacting the OS. Of the 308 patients still alive at the time of the analysis, 208 (68%) answered the QoL questionnaires. The QLQ-C30 shows a good long-term Global QoL of 64.6 (median), good functioning scores, and a decent symptom scale value. However, the EORTC QLQ-CX24 showed high values of cervical cancer-specific symptoms, namely: lymphedema, peripheral neuropathy, severe menopausal symptoms, and distorted body-image perception. The results also indicate a significant decline in the quality of sexual life with a low sexual enjoyment and decreased level of sexual activities. (4) Conclusion: Despite a good OS, in this setting of patients, cervical cancer survivors have a modest QoL and sexual function. Our study may provide a comparison for future randomized, controlled trials in Eastern European countries needing to confirm these results.

Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Followed by Surgery Versus Abdominal Radical Hysterectomy Alone for Oncological Outcomes of Stage IB3 Cervical Cancer-A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. Front Oncol 2021; 11:730753. [PMID: 34589433 PMCID: PMC8473821 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.730753] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/27/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of patients with cervical cancer who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery (NACT) with those who received abdominal radical hysterectomy alone (ARH). METHODS We retrospectively compared the oncological outcomes of 1410 patients with stage IB3 cervical cancer who received NACT (n=583) or ARH (n=827). The patients in the NACT group were divided into an NACT-sensitive group and an NACT-insensitive group according to their response to chemotherapy. RESULTS The 5-year oncological outcomes were significantly better in the NACT group than in the ARH group (OS: 96.2% vs. 91.2%, respectively, p=0.002; DFS: 92.2% vs. 87.5%, respectively, p=0.016). Cox multivariate analysis suggested that NACT was independently associated with a better 5-year OS (HR=0.496; 95% CI, 0.281-0.875; p=0.015), but it was not an independent factor for 5-year DFS (HR=0.760; 95% CI, 0.505-1.145; p=0.189). After matching, the 5-year oncological outcomes of the NACT group were better than those of the ARH group. Cox multivariate analysis suggested that NACT was still an independent protective factor for 5-year OS (HR=0.503; 95% CI, 0.275-0.918; p=0.025). The proportion of patients in the NACT group who received postoperative radiotherapy was significantly lower than that in the ARH group (p<0.001). Compared to the ARH group, the NACT-sensitive group had similar results as the NACT group. The NACT-insensitive group and the ARH group had similar 5-year oncological outcomes and proportions of patients receiving postoperative radiotherapy. CONCLUSION Among patients with stage IB3 cervical cancer, NACT improved 5-year OS and was associated with a reduction in the proportion of patients receiving postoperative radiotherapy. These findings suggest that patients with stage IB3 cervical cancer, especially those who are sensitive to chemotherapy, might consider NACT followed by surgery.

Abstract
Diacylglycerol kinase zeta (DGKZ) participates in cancer progression. Here, the current work aims to identify the functional role of DGKZ in cervical cancer (CC). DGKZ expression in cervical cancer tissues and paired adjacent normal cervical tissues was assessed using Immunohistochemistry assay. SiHa and HeLa cells were transfected with lentivirus plasmids (sh-DGKZ or sh-NC) to evaluate the effects of DGKZ knockdown on cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle distribution in vitro. Furthermore, BALB/c nude mice were injected subcutaneously with Lentivirus-sh-DGKZ-SiHa cells or Lentivirus-sh-NC-SiHa cells to analyze the influence of DGKZ silencing on tumor growth of CC in vivo. Moreover, the potential molecular mechanisms were predicted by GO and KEGG analysis and preliminarily explored through PathScan Analysis. Elevated DGKZ expression in cervical tumor was observed. Downregulation of DGKZ repressed proliferation and boosted apoptosis of SiHa and HeLa cells and induced cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. In addition, Knockdown of DGKZ restrained tumor growth in tumor xenograft mice. Importantly, GO and KEGG analysis displayed that differentially expressed proteins induced by silence of DGKZ were mostly enriched in autophagy or mitophagy, indicating that the functions of DGKZ on cell proliferation and tumor growth may be associated with autophagy or mitophagy. PathScan analysis presented that PI3K-AKT and TAK1-NF-κB signaling pathways were prominently inhibited in SiHa cells transfected with sh-DGKZ. In summary, downregulation of DGKZ impeded cell proliferation, boosted cell apoptosis and induced cell cycle arrest to suppress tumorigenesis and progression of cervical cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the oncological outcomes and major complications of laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH) and abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) for stage IB1 cervical cancer (FIGO 2009) with a tumour size less than 2 cm. METHODS We retrospectively compared the oncological outcomes and major complications of 1207 stage IB1 cervical cancer patients with a tumour size less than 2 cm who received LRH (n = 546) or ARH (n = 661) in 37 hospitals. RESULTS (1) There was no significant difference in 3-year overall survival (OS; 97.3% vs. 98.5%, P = 0.288) or 3-year disease-free survival (DFS; 95.1% vs. 95.4%, P = 0.792) between LRH (n = 546) and ARH (n = 661).(2) The rate of any 1 complication refers to the incidence of one or more complications in a patient, which was higher with LRH than ARH (OR = 4.047, 95% CI = 2.035-8.048, P < 0.001). Additionally, intraoperative complications occurred with LRH (OR = 12.313, 95% confidence intervals [CI] = 1.571-96.493, P = 0.017), and postoperative complications (OR = 3.652, 95% CI = 1.763-7.562, P < 0.001) were higher with LRH than ARH. The ureteral injury rate was higher with LRH than with ARH (1.50% vs. 0.20%, OR = 9.814, 95% CI = 1.224-78.712, P = 0.032). The ureterovaginal fistula rate was higher with LRH than ARH. The rates of obturator nerve injury, bladder injury, vesicovaginal fistula, rectovaginal fistula, venous thromboembolism, bowel obstruction, chylous leakage, pelvic haematoma, and haemorrhage were similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS The oncological outcomes of LRH and ARH for stage IB1 cervical cancer patients with a tumour size less than 2 cm do not differ significantly. However, incidences of any 1 complication, intraoperative complications, and postoperative complications were higher with LRH than ARH, with complications manifesting mainly as ureteral injury and uterovaginal fistula.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare long-term outcomes between pre-operative radiotherapy followed by open surgery and direct open surgery among women with Stage IB1-IIB cervical squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS A multicenter retrospective cohort study among women with Stage IB1-IIB cervical squamous cell carcinoma who underwent open surgery either directly (SD group) or with pre-operative radiotherapy (PR group) in China 2004-2016. Five-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) between the two groups were compared by Kaplan-Meier methods and multivariate Cox regression. RESULTS Overall, 8385 women with Stage IB1-IIB were included (PR group, n = 447; SD group, n = 7938). Five-year OS and DFS was significantly lower in the PR than in the SD group (OS: 81.7% vs 91.6%, P < 0.001; DFS: 76.3% vs 86.7%, P < 0.001). As compared with direct surgery, pre-operative radiotherapy was an independent risk factor for 5-year OS (adjusted hazard raio [aHR], 1.75; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.34-2.30) and DFS (aHR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.09-1.73) by multivariate Cox regression. Sensitivity analyses confirmed the findings. CONCLUSION Among women with Stage IB1-IIB cervical squamous cell carcinoma, outcomes were found to be worse for those undergoing pre-operative radiotherapy followed by open surgery than for those undergoing direct open surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the accuracy of uterine corpus invasion (UCI) diagnosis in patients with cervical cancer and identity risk factors for UCI and depth of invasion. METHODS Clinical data of patients with cervical cancer who underwent hysterectomy between 2004 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. UCI was assessed on uterine pathology. Independent risk factors for UCI and depth of invasion were identified using binary and ordinal logistic regression models, respectively. RESULTS A total of 2,212 patients with cervical cancer from 11 medical institutions in China were included in this study. Of these, 497 patients had cervical cancer and UCI, and 1,715 patients had cervical cancer and no UCI, according to the original pathology reports. Retrospective review of the original pathology reports revealed a missed diagnosis of UCI in 54 (10.5%) patients and a misdiagnosis in 36 (2.1%) patients. Therefore, 515 patients with cervical cancer and UCI (160 patients with endometrial invasion, 176 patients with myometrial invasion < 50%, and 179 patients with myometrial invasion ≥ 50%), and 1697 patients with cervical cancer without UCI were included in the analysis. Older age, advanced stage, tumor size, adenocarcinoma, parametrial involvement, resection margin involvement, and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for UCI. These risk factors, except resection margin involvement, were independently associated with depth of UCI. CONCLUSIONS UCI may be missed or misdiagnosed in patients with cervical cancer on postoperative pathological examination. Older age, advanced stage, tumor size, adenocarcinoma, parametrial involvement, resection margin involvement, and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors for UCI and depth of UCI, with the exception of resection margin involvement.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on postoperative pathology for stage IB2 and IIA2 cervical squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS Postoperative pathology was compared between patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical hysterectomy (NACT group) and patients who received upfront radical hysterectomy (URH group). Then, patients in the NACT group were divided into a chemotherapy-sensitive group and a chemotherapy-insensitive group according to their response to chemotherapy. RESULTS After 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM), the positive rates of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) (7.9% vs 17.7%, P = 0.001) and cervical deep stromal invasion (60.4% vs 76.2%, P < 0.001) in the NACT group were significantly lower than those in the URH group, while the positive rates of parametrial invasion, lymph node metastasis, and vaginal margin invasion were not significantly different between the two groups. The rate of positive lymph node metastasis in the chemotherapy-sensitive group was significantly lower than that in the URH group (18.1% vs 26.5%, P = 0.037). CONCLUSION Among patients with stage IB2 and IIA2 cervical squamous cell carcinomas, NACT can reduce the positive rate of intermediate-risk factors, such as deep cervical stromal invasion and LVSI, but cannot reduce the positive rate of high-risk factors. For patients who are chemotherapy sensitive, NACT can reduce the positive rate of lymph node metastasis.

Influence of uterine corpus invasion on prognosis in stage IA2-IIB cervical cancer: A multicenter retrospective cohort study. Gynecol Oncol 2020; 158:273-281. [PMID: 32467057 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2020.05.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2020] [Accepted: 05/01/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the associations between the presence and depth of uterine corpus invasion and survival in patients with cervical cancer. METHODS Clinical data of patients with stage IA2-IIB cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy between 2004 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Uterine corpus invasion was identified from a review of uterine pathology. Independent prognostic factors for 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were identified using multivariate forward stepwise Cox proportional hazards regression models. RESULTS A total of 1414 patients with stage IA2-IIB cervical cancer from 11 medical institutions in China were included. Retrospective review of the original pathology reports revealed a missed diagnosis of uterine corpus invasion in 38 (13.4%) patients and a misdiagnosis in 20 (1.8%) patients. Therefore, 284 patients with cervical cancer and uterine corpus invasion (90 [31.7%] patients had endometrial invasion, 105 [37.0%] patients had myometrial invasion <50%, and 89 [31.3%] patients had myometrial invasion ≥50%), and 1130 patients with cervical cancer without uterine corpus invasion were included in the analysis. The 5-year DFS and OS were significantly shorter for patients with uterine corpus invasion compared to patients with no uterine corpus invasion. Myometrial invasion ≥50% was an independent prognostic factor associated with decreased 5-year DFS (aHR, 2.307, 95% CI, 1.588-3.351) and 5-year OS (aHR, 2.736, 95% CI, 1.813-4.130), while myometrial invasion <50% or endometrial invasion had no effect on patient outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Diagnosis of uterine corpus invasion is frequently missed. Myometrial invasion ≥50% within the uterine corpus was an independent factor associated with worse prognosis in patients with cervical cancer, while myometrial invasion <50% or endometrial invasion had no effect on outcomes.

Comparison between robot-assisted radical hysterectomy and abdominal radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer: A multicentre retrospective study. Gynecol Oncol 2020; 157:429-436. [PMID: 32067814 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2020.02.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2019] [Revised: 02/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare 3-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates of robot-assisted radical hysterectomy (RRH) and abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH) for cervical cancer. METHODS We retrospectively compared the oncological outcomes of 10,314 cervical cancer patients who received RRH (n = 1048) or ARH (n = 9266) and whose stages were IA1 with lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI)-IIA2. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank tests were used to compare the 3-year OS and DFS rates between the RRH and ARH groups. Cox proportional hazards model and propensity score matching was used to estimate the surgical approach-specific survival. RESULTS RRH and ARH showed similar 3-year OS and DFS rates (93.5% vs. 94.1%, p = 0.486; 90.0% vs. 90.4%, p = 0.302). RRH was not associated with a lower 3-year OS rate by the multivariable analysis (HR 1.23, 95% CI 0.89-1.70, p = 0.206), but it was associated with a lower 3-year DFS rate (HR 1.20, 95% CI 1.09-1.52, p = 0.035). After propensity score matching, patients who underwent RRH had decreased 3-year OS and DFS rates compared to those who underwent ARH (94.4% vs. 97.8%, p = 0.002; 91.1% vs. 95.4%, p = 0.001), and RRH was associated with lower 3-year OS and DFS rates. Among patients with stage IB1 and tumor size <2 cm, RRH was not associated with decreased 3-year OS and DFS rates (HR1.688, 95% CI 0.423-6.734, p = 0.458; HR1.267, 95%CI 0.518-3.098, p = 0.604). CONCLUSIONS Overall, RRH was associated with worse 3-year oncological outcomes than ARH in patients with FIGO stage IA1 with LVSI- IIA2 cervical cancer. However, RRH showed similar 3-year oncological outcomes with ARH among those with stage IB1 and tumor size <2 cm.
