Abstract
OBJECTIVE Retrospective series have shown secondary cytoreductive surgery improves oncological outcomes in recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer. We aim to compare surgical procedures and complications between patients with low-grade and high-grade recurrent serous ovarian cancer. METHODS This retrospective single-institution study includes patients with recurrent low-grade and high-grade serous ovarian cancer undergoing surgery between January 2012 to December 2021. Patients were propensity matched 1:3 for residual tumor at first surgery, presence of ascites and performance status. Complexity of surgery and postoperative complications were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 116 patients undergoing secondary cytoreductive surgery were included with 29 patients (25%) having low-grade ovarian cancer. The median age of the patients was 54 years (range: 19-85) and 57 years (range: 29-78) in low-grade and high-grade ovarian cancer, respectively (p=0.13). Stages III/IV at diagnosis were more frequent in patients with high-grade ovarian cancers (p<0.001). Peritoneal involvement was higher in low-grade compared with high-grade ovarian cancer as shown by the higher rate of diaphragmatic (41.4% vs 21.8%, p=0.05), abdominal wall (41.4% vs 18.4%, p=0.02) and pelvic (51.7% vs 21.8%, p=0.01) peritonectomy. Multiple bowel resections were higher in low-grade ovarian cancer (24.1% vs 8.0%, p=0.04), while high-grade ovarian cancer had a higher rate of nodal recurrences (73.2%% vs 37.9%, p=0.03). Overall, surgical complexity was higher in low-grade ovarian cancer (58.6% vs 36.8%; p=0.05), with higher median estimated blood loss (400 vs 200 mL; p=0.01) compared with high-grade. Complete cytoreduction was achieved in 26 patients (89.7%) with low-grade and 84 (96.6%) with high-grade (p=0.16) ovarian cancer, with no significant differences in postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS Secondary cytoreductive surgery in low-grade serous ovarian cancer patients was associated with higher complexity, multiple bowel resections, and higher median estimated blood loss than in high-grade serous ovarian cancer. The comparable rate of postoperative complications suggests that secondary cytoreductive surgery in this group of patients is feasible in expert centers.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review evidence around the value and challenges of surgery for recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (ROC). Both cytoreductive and palliative aspects will be addressed RECENT FINDINGS: Prospective and retrospective evidence demonstrates a significantly longer remission derived from the combination of surgical and systemic modalities as opposed to systemic treatment alone in carefully selected ROC-patients who have relapsed more than 6 months from the end of their 1st line platinum-based chemotherapy. Nevertheless, this benefit appears to be limited when total macroscopic tumor clearance is not achieved. Selection algorithms to identify optimal surgical candidates are of paramount importance to prevent surgical morbidity without the equivalent oncological benefit. In the palliative setting, the risks and benefits of salvage surgery need to be counterbalanced with the advances of conservative techniques for optimal care. Well-defined selection algorithms to identify those who will benefit from surgery in the relapsed setting appear to be the key to oncologic and surgical success.

Abstract
The role of secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) has been widely increased in recent years, especially in trying to improve the quality of life of these patients by utilising a minimally-invasive (MI) approach. However, surgery in previously-treated patients may be challenging, and patient selection and surgical planning are crucial. Unfortunately, at the moment, validated criteria to select patients for MI-SCS are not reported, and no predictors of its feasibility are currently available, probably due to the vast heterogeneity of recurrence patterns. The aim of this narrative review is to describe the role of secondary cytoreductive surgery and, in particular, minimally-invasive procedures, in ROC, analyzing patient selection, outcomes, criticisms, and future perspectives.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To synthesize the role of secondary cytoreduction in recurrent ovarian cancer from the results of randomized studies. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials which compared secondary cytoreductive surgery versus no surgery in patients with platinum sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer. Individual patient data for overall survival and progression free survival were manually extracted from published survival curves, for whole study populations and subgroups based on completeness of surgical resection and bevacizumab use, using WebPlotDigitizer software. Overall survival and progression free survival curves for each study and the combined population were reconstructed from extracted data. RESULTS Three studies with 1249 patients were included, of whom complete resection was achieved in 427 (34.2%) patients. In individual patient data analysis of the whole study population with 562 deaths, there was no significant difference in overall survival between the surgery and no surgery groups (median 52.8 vs 52.1 months, respectively, hazard ratio (HR) 0.94, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.80 to 1.11; p=0.5) but the surgery group had significantly longer progression free survival compared with the no surgery group (median 18.3 vs 14.4 months, respectively, HR 0.70, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.80; p<0.001). In subgroup analyses, overall survival was significantly longer in the complete cytoreduction subgroup compared with the no surgery group (median 62.0 vs 52.1 months, respectively, HR 0.70, 95% CI 0.57 to 0.92; p<0.001) while overall survival was significantly worse in the incomplete cytoreduction subgroup compared with the no surgery group (median 34.2 vs 52.1 months, respectively, HR 1.72, 95% CI 1.38 to 2.14; p<0.001). In the no bevacizumab subgroup, there was no significant overall survival difference between the surgery and no surgery groups (median 49.3 vs 47.0 months, HR 0.86, 95% CI 0.67 to 1.10; p=0.25). CONCLUSIONS Secondary cytoreductive surgery among women with platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer did not lead to significant benefit in overall survival although it increased progression free survival. However, overall survival was significantly longer among patients in whom complete cytoreduction was possible compared with no surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To identify those most likely to benefit from secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS), we evaluated the survival outcomes and factors predictive of prognosis in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer treated at five high-volume Korean hospitals between 2010 and 2021. Recurrence characteristics, treatment methods, and potential predictors of survival were compared between the chemotherapy and surgery groups. RESULTS Among all 670 patients, 88.1% had initial stage III/IV disease, and 215 (32.1%) underwent SCS. Among patients who underwent SCS, only those who achieved complete resection exhibited improved survival. Even in patients with residual disease < 1 cm after SCS, we observed no significant survival benefit (p = 0.942). In the multivariate Cox analysis, residual disease at primary surgery, progression-free interval, recurrence sites (≤3 regions or limited carcinomatosis), ascites, and SCS were significant predictors of survival. Meanwhile, the only factor predictive of complete resection after SCS was recurrence sites (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The benefits of SCS appear to be exclusive to cases of complete resection. We propose limited regional platinum-sensitive recurrence (≤3 regions or limited carcinomatosis) without ascites as the optimum selection criteria for SCS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This is an update of a previous Cochrane Review, last updated in 2014. Ovarian cancer is the eighth most common cancer and seventh most common cause of death due to cancer in women worldwide. Traditionally, most women who have been treated for cancer undergo long-term follow-up in secondary care. However, it has been suggested that the use of routine review may not be effective in improving survival, or health-related quality of life (HRQOL), or relieving anxiety. In addition, traditional follow-up may not be cost-effective. OBJECTIVES To compare the potential effects of different strategies of follow-up in women with epithelial ovarian cancer, following completion of primary treatment. SEARCH METHODS For this update, we searched the Cochrane Gynaecological Cancer Group Trials Register, CENTRAL 2022, Issue 11, MEDLINE, and Embase from August 2013 to November 2022. We also searched review articles and contacted experts in the field. SELECTION CRITERIA All randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluated follow-up strategies for women with epithelial ovarian cancer following completion of primary treatment. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS We followed standard Cochrane methodology. Two review authors independently selected potentially relevant trials, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. They compared results, and resolved disagreements by discussion. We assessed the certainty of evidence, using the GRADE approach, for the outcomes of interest: overall survival (OS), health-related quality of life (HRQOL), psychological effects, and cost analysis. MAIN RESULTS For this update, we included one new RCT, including 112 women with ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer, who had completed primary treatment by surgery, with or without chemotherapy. This study reported the effect of individualised, i.e. individually tailored, nurse-led follow-up versus conventional medical follow-up on HRQOL, psychological outcomes, and cost-analysis. Individualised follow-up improved HRQOL in one of the two scales, with a decrease in mean difference (MD) in the QLQ-C30 discomfort scale following 12 months of individualised treatment compared to 12 months of conventional treatment (MD -5.76 points, 95% confidence interval (CI) -10.92 to -0.60; 1 study, 112 participants; low-certainty evidence; minimal important difference 4 to 10 points). There may be little or no difference in the other HRQOL scale (QLQ-Ov28, MD -0.97 points, 95% CI -2.57 to 0.63; 1 study, 112 participants: low-certainty evidence); psychological outcome, measured with the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS; MD 0.10 point, 95% CI -0.81 to 1.02; 1 study, 112 participants: low-certainty evidence), or cost analysis (MD -GBP 695.00, 95% CI -1467.23 to 77.23; 1 study, 112 participants: moderate-certainty evidence). Our previous review included one RCT, with 529 women in a confirmed remission, with normal CA125 concentration and no radiological evidence of disease, after surgery and first-line chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. This study evaluated immediate treatment of ovarian cancer relapse following a rise of serum CA125 levels versus delaying treatment until symptoms developed for OS, and HRQOL. There was little or no difference in OS between the immediate and delayed arms after a median follow-up of 56.9 months (unadjusted hazard ratio (HR) 0.98, 95% CI 0.80 to 1.20; 1 study, 529 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Time from randomisation to first deterioration in global health score or death was shorter in the immediate treatment group than in the delayed treatment group (HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.58 to 0.88). AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Limited evidence from one trial suggests that routine surveillance with CA125 in asymptomatic women and treatment at CA125-defined relapse does not seem to offer survival advantage when compared to treatment at symptomatic relapse. However, this study pre-dates the use of PARPi maintenance treatment and the increased use of secondary cytoreductive surgery, so the results may be limited in their applicability to current practice. Limited evidence from one trial suggests that individualised nurse-led follow-up may improve HRQOL in women with ovarian cancer following completion of primary treatment. Large RCTs are needed to compare different types of follow-up, looking at survival, HRQOL, psychological effects, and cost as outcomes.

Abstract
Patients with metastatic ovarian cancer who develop resistance to standard therapy with or without platinum need to search for other therapeutic choices. Therefore, identifying genetic alterations and selecting an approach to treatment using precision medicine techniques are important. In a patient diagnosed with mixed-type ovarian cancer after surgery, adjuvant therapy was applied with a combination of carboplatin and taxane, but the disease recurred. Upon evaluation of the patient as having platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), combination therapy with bevacizumab was initially successful. However, disease progression was again observed, and molecular analysis revealed the presence of an E545K mutation in the PIK3CA gene; therefore, a selective PI3K inhibitor, alpelisib, was used as a treatment under the compassionate-use protocol. The patient's complications improved after receiving the alpelisib medication. The patient has been in complete remission for over two years. This case serves as a rare example that confirms the utility of alpelisib in managing mixed-type ovarian cancer.

Post-operative residual disease and number of cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in advanced epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2023; 33:1270-1278. [PMID: 37429642 PMCID: PMC10423511 DOI: 10.1136/ijgc-2022-004249] [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: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles in patients with advanced ovarian cancer is still disputed. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of the number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles and role of optimal cytoreduction on the prognosis of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. METHODS Clinical and pathological details were examined. Patients were evaluated combining the number of cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy-namely, 'interval debulking surgery' after up to four neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles, and 'delayed debulking surgery' after more than four cycles of therapy. RESULTS A total of 286 patients were included in the study. Complete cytoreduction with no residual peritoneal disease (CC0) was achieved in 74 (74%) patients with interval debulking surgery and 124 (66.7%) patients with delayed interval debulking. Of those with residual disease, there were 26/88 (29.5%) patients in the interval debulking surgery group and 62/88 (70.5%) patients in the delayed debulking surgery group. Comparison of patients with delayed debulking-CC0 and interval debulking-CC0 showed no difference in progression-free survival (p=0.3) or overall survival (p=0.4), while significantly worse outcomes were observed in patients with interval debulking-CC1 (p=0.02 and p=0.04, respectively). Specifically, patients with interval debulking-CC1 had an approximately 67% increased risk of disease progression (p=0.04; HR=2.01 (95% CI 1.04 to 4.18)) and a 69% higher risk of death than patients with delayed debulking-CC0 (p=0.03; HR=2.34 (95% CI 1.11 to 4.67)). CONCLUSION Increasing the number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles does not worsen patient outcomes if complete resection is achieved. Nevertheless, additional prospective trials are necessary to establish the optimum number of neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer (OC) represents one of the most lethal cancers in women. The aim of surgical treatment is complete cytoreduction in advanced stages and a surgical staging in early stages. Although the guidelines still suggest laparotomy as the standard approach, in recent years minimally invasive surgery (MIS) has become increasingly popular in the treatment of OC, especially in early stages, because the 5-year relative survival exceeds 90% and the patients' quality of life cannot be overshadowed. However, MIS has been demonstrated to have a role even in advanced stages, in the prediction of optimal cytoreduction, identification patients who may benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and, more recently, in the interval debulking surgery, as in selected cases of secondary cytoreduction for recurrent ovarian cancer. The aim of this review is to describe the MIS (especially robotic surgery), with its advantages and pitfalls, in the treatment of OC.

Prognostic Role of Neutrophil, Monocyte and Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratios in Advanced Ovarian Cancer According to the Time of Debulking Surgery. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:11420.

Abstract
Despite a multimodal radical treatment, mortality of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC) remains high. Host-related factors, such as systemic inflammatory response and its interplay with the immune system, remain underexplored. We hypothesized that the prognostic impact of this response could vary between patients undergoing primary debulking surgery (PDS) and those undergoing interval debulking surgery (IDS). Therefore, we evaluated the outcomes of two surgical groups of newly diagnosed AEOC patients according to the neutrophil, monocyte and platelet to lymphocyte ratios (NLR, MLR, PLR), taking median ratio values as cutoffs. In the PDS group (n = 61), low NLR and PLR subgroups showed significantly better overall survival (not reached (NR) vs. 72.7 months, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 40.9-95.2, p = 0.019; and NR vs. 56.1 months, 95% CI: 40.9-95.2, p = 0.004, respectively) than those with high values. Similar results were observed in progression free survival. NLR and PLR-high values resulted in negative prognostic factors, adjusting for residual disease, BRCA1/2 status and stage (HR 2.48, 95% CI: 1.03-5.99, p = 0.043, and HR 2.91, 95% CI: 1.11-7.64, p = 0.03, respectively). In the IDS group (n = 85), ratios were not significant prognostic factors. We conclude that NLR and PLR may have prognostic value in the PDS setting, but none in IDS, suggesting that time of surgery can modulate the prognostic impact of baseline complete blood count (CBC).

Abstract
BACKGROUND This bicentric study evaluated cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients. METHODS The data of 88 patients with the first peritoneal recurrence of platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent CRS and HIPEC from a prospective HIPEC registry were retrospectively investigated. Endpoints were feasibility, chemotherapeutic compound, time of exposure, complications, and overall survival. RESULTS The median follow-up was 4.7 years (95%-CI 4.6-5.5). The median age was 55.8 years (IQR: 50.3-66.2). Eighty-four patients (95.5%) had high-grade serous histology. The median peritoneal cancer index was 12.0 (IQR: 7.0-20.5). Sixty-five patients (73.9%) had complete cytoreduction (CCR 0). Thirty-eight patients (43.2%) received HIPEC for 60 min, and fifty patients (56.8%) for 90 min. Eighteen patients (20.5%) had grade III to IV complications. One patient (1.1%) died perioperatively. The overall median survival was 43.1 months (95%-CI 34.1-52.2), and the 5-year survival rate was 39.7%. Only 90 min HIPEC and cisplatin were associated with survival. CONCLUSION In well-selected patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, survival may correlate with complete CRS and 90 min cisplatin-based HIPEC. We confirmed the results of primary OC studies; therefore, this combination should be used for further analysis in the recurrent situation.

Anastomotic Leak in Ovarian Cancer Cytoreduction Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14215464. [PMID: 36358882 PMCID: PMC9653973 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14215464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 10/28/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Bowel resection is often required to obtain complete removal of ovarian cancer. A major complication of this operation is anastomotic leakage, which has been shown to increase morbidity and mortality in this population. Numerous original research studies have assessed the risk factors for anastomotic leaks. We aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to identify statistically significant risk factors. This meta-analysis identified multiple bowel resections as the only significant risk factor. With further research to identify additional risk factors, new management guidelines could be implemented to minimize the risk of anastomotic leaks and improve patient outcomes. Abstract Introduction: Anastomotic leaks (AL) following ovarian cytoreduction surgery could be detrimental, leading to significant delays in commencing adjuvant chemotherapy, prolonged hospital stays and increased morbidity. The aim of this study was to investigate risk factors associated with anastomotic leaks after ovarian cytoreduction surgery. Material and methods: The MEDLINE (via PubMed), Cochrane Library, EMBASE and Scopus bibliographical databases were searched. Original clinical studies investigating risk factors for AL in ovarian cytoreduction surgery were included. Results: Eighteen studies with non-overlapping populations reporting on patients undergoing cytoreduction surgery for ovarian cancer (n = 4622, including 344 cases complicated by AL) were included in our analysis. Patients undergoing ovarian cytoreduction surgery complicated by AL had a significantly higher rate of 30-day mortality but no difference in 60-day mortality. Multiple bowel resections were associated with an increased risk of postoperative AL, while no association was observed with body mass index (BMI), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, age, smoking, operative approach (primary versus interval cytoreductive, stapled versus hand-sewn anastomoses and formation of diverting stoma), neoadjuvant chemotherapy and use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Discussion: Multiple bowel resections were the only clinical risk factor associated with increased risk for AL after bowel surgery in the ovarian cancer population. The increased 30-day mortality rate in patients undergoing ovarian cytoreduction complicated by AL highlights the need to minimize the number of bowel resections in this population. Further studies are required to clarify any association between neoadjuvant chemotherapy and decreased AL rates.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer represents worldwide the second most frequent and the most fatal gynecological malignancy, with approximately two thirds of the patients presenting with advanced disease. Cytoreductive surgery, primary or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy is the standard of care for these patients. Despite the improvement in quality of cytoreductive surgery as well as development of novel drugs and chemotherapy regimens, still most women with ovarian cancer will ultimately develop recurrent disease and die of their disease. In contrast to the management of primary disease, the standard treatment of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer remains a topic of debate. While platinum-based or second line systemic chemotherapy, depending on the time after last platinum treatment, is standard of care, the role of secondary cytoreductive surgery has been a controversial issue for the last decades. Potential outcome benefit must be also weighed against the risk of severe surgical morbidity, impairment of quality of life and costs. In platinum-resistant recurrent disease, i.e., relapse after less than 6 months from the last platinum-based chemotherapy for primary disease, secondary cytoreduction seems generally not to be indicated due to its aggressive biological behavior and the absence of effective systemic treatment. In this comprehensive review, the current role of cytoreductive surgery in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer is discussed thoroughly in view of the results of most recent randomized trials and a meta-analysis. There seems to be definitely a role for secondary cytoreductive surgery in selected patients with ovarian cancer recurrence in whom complete resection of macroscopic disease is feasible. However, its role should be continuously reviewed due to the changing systemic treatment of patients with ovarian cancer recurrence over time.

Abstract
Simple Summary Eligibility for secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) in ovarian cancer is dependent on multiple confounding factors. In this study, we evaluated the clinical characteristics of 262 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer to assess the impact of SCS on patient survival and establish simplified criteria for the selection of patients who would most likely be benefitted from SCS. We observed that the median survival was significantly longer in the patients who received SCS compared with those who received chemotherapy alone. As for the indication of the surgery, limited regional recurrence (single region or up to three regions with limited carcinomatosis) emerged as the simplified factor that could predict no residual disease after SCS. Abstract (1) Background: Multiple confounding factors influence the indications for secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) in patients with ovarian cancer (OC). We aimed to identify the factors associated with patients most likely to benefit from SCS. (2) Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer from 2003 to 2021. The potential factors influencing treatment outcomes and survival between patients who received chemotherapy alone and those who received SCS after recurrence were evaluated. (3) Results: Recurrent OC was identified in 262 patients, with a median age of 53 (20–80) years. Of these patients, 87.4% had an initial stage III/IV disease. Eighty-nine (34%) patients received SCS. The median survival was 41.0 (95% confidence interval [CI], 37.4–44.5) months and 88.0 (95% CI, 64.2–111.7) months in the chemotherapy and surgery groups, respectively. A multivariate analysis showed limited regional carcinomatosis (single region or up to three regions with limited carcinomatosis) (p = 0.045) as the only significant factor for predicting no residual disease after SCS. In platinum-sensitive recurrent patients with limited regional recurrence, the complete resection rate was 87.6%. (4) Conclusions: SCS had a significant impact on survival in the selected patient population. Limited regional recurrence (single region or up to three regions with limited carcinomatosis) may be a simple criterion for SCS in platinum-sensitive recurrent OC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian cancer is one of the three most common malignant tumors of the female reproductive tract and ranks first in terms of mortality among gynecological tumors. Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is the most common ovarian malignancy, accounting for 90% of all primary ovarian tumors. The clinical value of cytoreductive surgery in patients with platinum-resistant recurrent EOC remains largely unclear.
AIM To evaluate the feasibility of secondary cytoreductive surgery for treating platinum-resistant recurrent EOC.
METHODS This was a retrospective study of the clinical data of patients with platinum-resistant EOC admitted to the Cancer Hospital of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences between September 2012 and June 2018. Patient baseline data were obtained from clinical records. Routine follow-up of disease progression was performed as follows. CA125 assessment and physical examination were performed every 3 wk during treatment, including gynecological examination. Imaging assessment was carried out every 12 wk by B-mode ultrasound, computed tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging. The primary outcome was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary outcomes included overall survival (OS), chemotherapy-free interval (CFI), and complications. Follow-up ended on April 15, 2019.
RESULTS A total of 38 patients were included. R0 resection was achieved in 25 (65.8%) patients and R1/2 in 13 (34.2%). Twenty-five (65.8%) patients required organ resection. Nine (23.7%) patients had operative complications, 36 (94.7%) received chemotherapy, and five (13.2%) had targeted therapy. Median PFS and OS were 10 (95%CI: 8.27-11.73) months and 28 (95%CI: 12.75-43.25) months, respectively; median CFI was 9 (95%CI: 8.06-9.94) months. R0 resection and postoperative chemotherapy significantly prolonged PFS and OS (all P < 0.05), and R0 resection also significantly prolonged CFI (P < 0.05). Grade ≥ 3 complications were observed, including rectovaginal fistula (n = 1), intestinal and urinary fistulas (n = 1), and renal failure-associated death (n = 1). Except for the patient who died after surgery, all other patients with complications were successfully managed. Two patients developed intestinal obstruction and showed improvement after conservative treatment.
CONCLUSION Secondary cytoreductive surgery is feasible for treating platinum-resistant recurrent EOC. These findings provide important references for the selection of clinical therapeutic regimens.

Abstract
PURPOSE The survival impact of secondary cytoreductive surgery in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer was studied. METHODS We identified published studies from 1983 to 2021 following our inclusion criteria from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library. To integrate the effect size of single-arm studies, meta-analysis was performed using death rate as a primary outcome. The effect of complete cytoreduction and optimal cytoreduction on survival was evaluated using meta-regression. The pooled death rate was presented with a 95% CI. The publication bias was evaluated with the funnel plot and Egger's test, and sensitivity analysis was performed. To overcome missing death rates, the linear regression model was performed on log-transformed median overall survival (OS) time using study size as a weight. RESULTS Thirty-six studies with 2,805 patients reporting death rates were used for this meta-analysis of the 80 eligible studies. There was strong heterogeneity, with the P value of the Cochrane Q test of < 0.0001 and Higgins's I2 statistics of 86%; thus, we considered a random effect model. The pooled death rate was 44.2% (95% CI, 39.0 to 49.5), and both the complete and optimal cytoreductions were associated with better survival outcomes as significant moderators in the meta-regression model (P < .001 and P = .005, respectively). Although 14 studies were located outside the funnel plot, Egger's test indicated no publication bias (P = .327). A sensitivity analysis excluding 14 studies showed similar results. In the linear regression model on the basis of 57 studies, the median OS time increased by 8.97% and 7.04% when the complete and optimal cytoreduction proportion increased by 10%, respectively, after adjusting other variables. CONCLUSION Secondary cytoreductive surgery, resulting in maximal tumor resection, significantly prolongs OS in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSC) is a relatively chemo-resistant disease with limited effective treatment options for patients with recurrence. Secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) is commonly offered at recurrence, although any benefit this has on survival is not fully determined. This review evaluates the impact of SCS, including residual disease, on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in recurrent LGSC. METHODS A comprehensive search of Medline ALL, Embase Classic + Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Web of Science was conducted to obtain studies evaluating optimal or complete SCS versus suboptimal SCS and the amount of residual disease in recurrent LGSC. Meta-analysis was performed and PFS and OS outcomes were calculated. RESULTS 1Of 5296 studies screened, 350 progressed to full-text review, with 9 ultimately selected for inclusion in the systematic review. Two studies met criteria for meta-analysis of PFS and of OS. The presence of visible residual disease at the conclusion of SCS negatively impacted PFS (HR = 3.51, 95% CI = 1.72-7.14), whereas SCS with no residual disease significantly improved OS (HR = 0.4, 95% CI = 0.23-0.7) in patients with recurrent LGSC. Diffuse and extensive disease distribution was inversely linked to survival. In addition, SCS as an initial treatment for recurrent LGSC was associated with superior survival in comparison to chemotherapy. A short platinum-free interval was not associated with worse survival in this cohort. CONCLUSIONS Complete SCS, and to a lesser extent optimal SCS, are associated with improved PFS and OS in patients with recurrent LGSC. SCS may be a better initial treatment strategy than systemic chemotherapy for recurrent disease. Patients with recurrent LGSC should be evaluated for the role of SCS based on disease distribution and functional status, irrespective of the platinum-free interval. Prospective studies are needed to further study the role of SCS in patients with recurrent LGSC.

Abstract
The most advanced epithelial ovarian cancer develops recurrent disease despite maximal surgical cytoreduction and adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. Treatment with secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) combined with chemotherapy or with chemotherapy alone for patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) is currently under heated discussion. Encouragingly, the results of the AGO DESKTOP III Study and the SOC1/SGOG-OV2 trial, which have been published recently, showed a striking advantage in terms of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of ROC patients undergoing SCS compared to chemotherapy alone; moreover, a benefit of SCS exclusively for patients with complete gross resection (CGR) was particularly highlighted. CGR is considered the ultimate goal of SCS, on condition that the balance between maximal survival gain and minimal operative morbidity is maintained. Several models have been proposed to predict the rate of CGR, such as the MSK criteria, the AGO score, and the Tian model, over the last 15 years. This summary is mainly about the several previously published prediction models for CGR in SCS of ROC patients and discusses the effectiveness and limitations of these prediction models.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this phase II study was to evaluate hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with carboplatin for recurrent ovarian cancer during secondary cytoreductive surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were intraoperatively randomly assigned to carboplatin HIPEC (800 mg/m2 for 90 minutes) or no HIPEC, followed by five or six cycles of postoperative IV carboplatin-based chemotherapy, respectively. Based on a binomial single-stage pick-the-winner design, an arm was considered winner if ≥ 17 of 49 patients were without disease progression at 24 months post-surgery. Secondary objectives included postoperative toxicity and HIPEC pharmacokinetics. RESULTS Of 98 patients, 49 (50%) received HIPEC. Complete gross resection was achieved in 82% of the HIPEC patients and 94% of the standard-arm patients. Bowel resection was performed in 37% of patients in the HIPEC arm compared with 65% in the standard (P = .008). There was no perioperative mortality and no difference in use of ostomies, length of stay, or postoperative toxicity. At 24 months, eight patients (16.3%; 1-sided 90% CI, 9.7 to 100) were without progression or death in the HIPEC arm and 12 (24.5%; 1-sided 90% CI, 16.5 to 100) in the standard arm. With a medium follow-up of 39.5 months, 82 patients progressed and 37 died. The median progression-free survival in the HIPEC and standard arms were 12.3 and 15.7 months, respectively (hazard ratio, 1.54; 95% CI, 1 to 2.37; P = .05). There was no significant difference in median overall survival (52.5 v 59.7 months, respectively; hazard ratio, 1.39; 95% CI, 0.73 to 2.67; P = .31). These analyses were exploratory. CONCLUSION HIPEC with carboplatin was well tolerated but did not result in superior clinical outcomes. This study does not support the use of HIPEC with carboplatin during secondary cytoreductive surgery for platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer.

Abstract
There is a strong rationale for investigating nutritional interventions with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in cancer prevention and therapy; however, the effects of DHA on ovarian cancer (OC) have not been well studied. Here, we investigated if DHA alone and in combination with carboplatin reduces OC cell growth in vitro. In vivo, we used a high-grade serous OC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse model to investigate if DHA affects OC growth and enhances the anticancer actions of carboplatin. We showed synergistic cell killing by DHA and carboplatin in DHA-resistant Kuramochi and SKOV3 OC cells, which corresponded with increased DHA incorporation into whole-cell membrane phospholipids (P < 0.05). In vivo, feeding mice a diet supplemented with 3.9% (w/w of fat) DHA resulted in a significant reduction in PDX growth with and without carboplatin (P < 0.05). This reduction in tumor growth was accompanied by an increased tumor necrotic region (P < 0.05) and improved survival. Plasma membranes in tumors and livers excised from mice fed a DHA diet had ∼ twofold increase in DHA incorporation as compared with mice fed a control diet. Our findings indicate that DHA supplementation reduces cancer cell growth and enhances the efficacy of carboplatin in preclinical models of OC through increased apoptosis and necrosis.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/01635581.2021.1952453.

Abstract
The ovarian cancer recurrence occurs in 75% of patients with advanced FIGO stage, and its treatment is a challenge for the oncologist in gynecology. The standard treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) usually includes intravenous chemotherapy according to platinum sensitivity. Furthermore, maintenance treatment with target therapies [e.g., anti-angiogenic drug or PARP inhibitors (PARPi)], should be provided if not precedently administrated. In this scenario, secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) remains a practical but controversial option for platinum-sensitive ROC (PSROC). So far, several retrospective series and a Cochrane meta-analysis had concluded that SCS could determine better survival outcomes in ROC with favorable prognostic characteristics, such as the presence of a single anatomical site of recurrence, or when patients are accurately selected for surgery based on complete resection’s predictive models. Recently, three randomized clinical trials (RCTs) investigated the role of SCS in PSROC patients selected with different criteria. All the three RCTs showed a significant statistical advantage in progression-free survival (PFS) in the SCS group, with an even more significant difference in patients with complete cytoreduction (about 7-month PFS increased). Data on overall survival (OS) are different in the two completed trials. The GOG213 study has documented a longer OS of PSROC patients who received chemotherapy alone compared to surgery plus chemotherapy. Contrarily, the DESKTOP III trial showed 7.7 months of increased OS in the surgery group vs. chemotherapy alone, with a more difference in the complete tumor cytoreduction (CTC) group (12 months). These RCTs thereby suggest that undergoing complete cytoreduction may not be the only key and that the disease biology may also matter. Few recent retrospective series investigated the role of SCS according to BRCA mutation status and the effect of SCS in patients receiving emerging PARPi. A consequence of the developments in SCS and knowledge of different molecular pathways influencing the recurrent disease is that the future research objective should be to individualize and personalize the surgical approach.

Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancer in the United States and is the country's fifth most common cause of cancer mortality in women. A major challenge in treating ovarian cancer is that most patients have advanced disease at initial diagnosis. These NCCN Guidelines discuss cancers originating in the ovary, fallopian tube, or peritoneum, as these are all managed in a similar manner. Most of the recommendations are based on data from patients with the most common subtypes─high-grade serous and grade 2/3 endometrioid. The NCCN Guidelines also include recommendations specifically for patients with less common ovarian cancers, which in the guidelines include the following: carcinosarcoma, clear cell carcinoma, mucinous carcinoma, low-grade serous, grade 1 endometrioid, borderline epithelial, malignant sex cord-stromal, and malignant germ cell tumors. This manuscript focuses on certain aspects of primary treatment, including primary surgery, adjuvant therapy, and maintenance therapy options (including PARP inhibitors) after completion of first-line chemotherapy.

Abstract
This article addresses the role of surgery in the management of gynecologic cancers with liver metastases. The authors review the short-term and long-term outcomes of aggressive resection through retrospective and randomized studies. Although the data supporting aggressive resection of liver metastasis are largely retrospective and case based, the randomized control data to address neoadjuvant versus chemotherapy have been widely criticized. Residual disease remains an important predictor for survival in ovarian cancer. If a patient cannot achieve near optimal cytoreduction, radical cytoreductive procedures, such as hepatic resection, should be considered for palliation only.

Abstract
Nowadays, the best treatment option for ovarian cancer recurrence is often subjective, can vary in the different centers and depend on personal experience. Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynaekologische Onkologie (AGO)-DESKTOP studies have identified a population of patients who could benefit from secondary surgery. The results of the Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG)-0213 study were recently published, which showed no advantage in terms of overall survival (OS) in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian undergoing secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) compared to chemotherapy alone. Aim of this narrative review is to summarize the best aspects that can make ovarian cancer recurrence patients suitable for SCS. A narrative review analyzing all the literature of the past 30 years has been performed. PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Ovid MEDLINE were used for research. All non-English-language articles have been excluded. The following keywords were searched: 'recurrent ovarian cancer', 'secondary surgery', 'secondary cytoreductive surgery', 'platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer', 'platinum-resistant ovarian cancer'. We divided eligible patients for secondary cytoreduction in relation to the following factors: platinum-sensitivity, AGO-score or Tian model, unresectable lesions, surgical generic contraindication, woman's personal choice. The selection of truly suitable patients for surgery seems an essential requirement for the patient's best therapeutic choice. In case of absent post-surgical residual tumor, good performance status, single recurrence, and platinum-sensitive ovarian recurrence, surgery could be performed.

Abstract
Background Women with response to primary treatment for advanced ovarian cancer are said to have progression if CA125 increases more than double the upper normal limit (70 IU/L) on follow-up. It was, however, noted that large section of women with CA125 > 35 IU/L had disease on imaging. Objective To compare values of CA125 rise at which radiological recurrence can be detected. Methods This is a retrospective observational study where women with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent interval debulking surgery and completed treatment at Tata Medical Center, Kolkata, India, from 2012 to 2016, and were followed up with Ca125. If CA125 doubled or exceeded 35 IU/L or increased to ≥ 70 IU/L, women were subjected to imaging. Results Among 142 women who underwent treatment, 64 women with response to primary treatment had recurrence. Recurrence was noted in two (3%) patients with doubling of Ca125 but ≤ 35 IU/, 18 (24%) patients with CA125 > 35 IU/L and 41 (64%) patients when CA125 was ≥ 70 IU/L. Three patients (5%) with normal CA125 had recurrence. Among the recurrence group, 45 women had R0 during surgery of which 27 (60%) had CA125 ≥ 70 IU/L and 14 (31%) had CA125 > 35 IU/L during recurrence. Sensitivity and specificity of value > 35 IU/L were 30.51% and 33.33%, respectively, with accuracy of 32.03%, while sensitivity and specificity at > 70 IU/L were 69.49% and 66.67%, respectively, with accuracy of 67.97%. Conclusion CA125 value of ≥ 70 IU/L is a better predictor of recurrence; however, imaging done when value rises > 35 IU/L would be able to detect significant recurrences early thus allowing early treatment.

Conditional Probability of Survival and Prognostic Factors in Long-Term Survivors of High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12082184. [PMID: 32764409 PMCID: PMC7465919 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12082184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2020] [Revised: 07/17/2020] [Accepted: 07/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: High-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOC) are heterogeneous, often diagnosed at an advanced stage, and associated with poor overall survival (OS, 39% at five years). There are few data about the prognostic factors of late relapses in HGSOC patients who survived ≥five years, long-term survivors (LTS). The aim of our study is to assess the probability of survival according to the already survived time from diagnosis. Methods: Data from HGSOC patients treated between 1995 and 2016 were retrospectively collected to estimate the conditional probability of survival (CPS), probability of surviving Y years after diagnosis when the patient had already survived X years, and to determine the LTS prognostic factors. The primary endpoint was OS. Results: 404 patients were included; 120 of them were LTS. Patients were aged 61 years (range: 20–89), WHO performance status 0–1 in 86.9% and 2 in 13.1%, and Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d’Obstétrique (FIGO) staging III and IV in 82.7% and 17.3% patients. Breast cancer (BRCA) status was available in 116 patients (33% mutated), including 58 LTS (36% mutated). No macroscopic residual disease was observed in 58.4% patients. First-line platinum-based chemotherapy plus paclitaxel was administered in 80.4% of patients (median: six cycles (range: 1–14)). After a 9 point 3-year follow-up, median OS was four years (95% CI: 3.6–4.5). The CPS at five years after surviving one year was 42.8% (95% CI: 35.3–48.3); it increased to 81.7% (95% CI: 75.5–87.8) after four survived years. Progression-free interval>18 months was the only LTS prognostic factor in the multivariable analysis (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.23; 95% CI: 0.13–0.40; p < 0.001). Conclusion: The CPS provided relevant and encouraging clinical information on the life expectancy of HGSOC patients who already survived a period of time after diagnosis. LTS prognostic factors are useful for clinicians and patients.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer with complete clinical response recurs with a high rate. Recurrence is observed in almost 25% of cases with early-stage diseases and in more than 80% with more advance stages. Based on a platinum-free interval cut-off of 6 months, the first recurrence is usually classified in platinum-sensitive versus platinum-resistant, reflecting the biological characteristics underlying the clinical behavior. After this first recurrence, the patients are rarely cured, but second-line therapy can provide significant clinical responses, particularly in first platinum-sensitive recurrence. The approach to secondary and tertiary recurrence follows the same general principles applied in the first recurrence. Platinum-sensitivity based on the treatment-free interval defines the available chemotherapeutic regimens, whit less therapeutic options and a generally worse prognosis in platinum-resistant recurrent disease. Nevertheless, in this scenario, the introduction of new targeted therapies changed the prognosis of patients with both platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrence. The first introduced antiangiogenic therapy resulted able to improve prognosis in recurrent disease both as a single-agent and combined therapy, although the growing adoption in the first line therapy requires further investigation to prove their efficacy after repeated use. More recently, the approach to secondary, tertiary, and later recurrence has been changed by the introduction of PARP inhibitors, which resulted effective as maintenance monotherapy in both platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant recurrence when the genetic background of the tumor allows their application with a significant improvement of oncological outcomes. Overall, although the growing body of promising therapeutic options to approach recurrent ovarian cancer, all the available evidence suggests that the best unique management of secondary and tertiary recurrence does not exist but should be personalized based on the disease characteristics, previous treatments, patient characteristics, and patient preference. On that basis, in this review, we report a general and complete overview of the approach at the secondary and tertiary ovarian cancer recurrence with the aim to provide a wide vision on the multiple available therapeutic options.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recurrent ovarian cancer frequently involves the spleen. Our aims were to describe the technique of robotic-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy and to evaluate outcomes including progression-free and overall survival in patients who underwent this procedure for recurrent ovarian cancer. METHODS Chart reviews were performed on all consecutive patients who underwent robotic splenectomy (April 2012 to May 2019) for recurrent ovarian cancer. Patients had ≤3 sites of disease and no ascites. Extent of disease was confirmed by positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) pre-operatively and platinum-doublet chemotherapy was initiated post-operatively. Peri- and post-operative outcomes, progression-free survival, and overall survival were assessed. Two video links are included to demonstrate variations in technique and anatomy. RESULTS A total of 10 patients were included. The median age was 63.5 years (range 46-74) and median body mass index was 30 kg/m2 (range 21.5-40.1). Disease was limited to the spleen in seven patients and three had evidence of up to two other sites of disease on imaging. The median robotic splenectomy operative time was 159 min (range 112-214) that included laparoscopic lysis of adhesions prior to robotic port placement in seven cases, and excision of diaphragm or omental implants in three cases. There were no transfusions, laparotomy conversions, return to the operating room, abscesses, or pancreatic pseudocysts. The median length of stay was 2 days (range 1-4). The median time to resumption of chemotherapy was 40 days (range 25-78). After a median follow-up of 51 months (range 12-98), five patients had recurrence (two deaths, three alive with disease), with a median time to recurrence of 14 months (range 12-15). The median progression-free survival was 15 months (range 12-98) and the median overall survival was 51 months (range 12-98) post-splenectomy. CONCLUSIONS Robotic splenectomy was feasible, achieving complete cytoreduction of splenic recurrent ovarian cancer, short hospital length-of-stay, and acceptable morbidity.

Abstract
Objective In patients with recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) in whom surgery is likely to render them disease-free, it is unclear whether secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) combined with chemotherapy is superior to chemotherapy alone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the 2 treatment options in Tian-model low-risk patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed 118 ROC cases treated in our hospital between 2004 and 2016. Of these, 52 platinum-sensitive cases were classified as low-risk (complete resection anticipated) using the Tian model. Prognostic factors were assessed with univariate and multivariate analysis using Cox's regression model. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared in patients treated with SCS plus chemotherapy (SCS group) and those treated with chemotherapy alone (chemotherapy group), using a propensity-score-based matching method. Results By multivariate analysis, the only factor associated with better OS was SCS. PFS and OS were significantly longer in the SCS group compared to the chemotherapy group in the matched cohort (median PFS: 21.7 vs. 15.1 months, p=0.027 and median OS: 91.4 vs. 33.4 months, p=0.008, respectively). In cases with multiple-site recurrence, the SCS group also showed significantly longer OS than the chemotherapy group (median 91.4 vs. 34.8 months, p=0.022). In almost all SCS cases, cooperation was required from other departments, and operation time was lengthy (median 323 minutes); however, no serious complications occurred. Conclusion SCS combined with chemotherapy results in better PFS and OS than chemotherapy alone in first platinum-sensitive ROC patients categorized as low-risk by Tian's model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Selected patients with platinum sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer may benefit from cytoreductive surgery (CRS). The aim was to study the pattern of peritoneal involvement in these patients that has not been done before. METHODS A comparison was made between the surgical and pathological findings in 60 patients undergoing salvage CRS from July 2018 to December 2019. The sites of residual disease, correlation with surgical and pathological peritoneal cancer index (PCI), small bowel involvement and regional lymph node involvement were studied. RESULTS Fifty-eight (96.6%) had serous carcinoma and 2 (3.4%) clear cell carcinoma. The median surgical PCI (sPCI) was 7 [range 0-27] and median pathological PCI (pPCI) 4 [range 0-21]. CC-0 resection was performed in 81.6%. The upper regions (region 1,2,3) were the commonest sites of residual disease (63.3%) followed by lower regions (region 5,6,7) in 55.0%, middle regions (regions 0,4,8) in 53.3% and small bowel regions (regions 9-12) in 26.6%. Small bowel involvement was associated with a higher sPCI and pPCI (p < 0.001 for both). Regional nodes were involved in 46.6%. A pathological complete response was seen in 8 (13.3%) patients of which 2 had residual disease in regional nodes. Microscopic disease in 'normal appearing' peritoneum was seen in 21%. CONCLUSIONS The parietal peritoneum was the commonest site of recurrence. Small bowel involvement occurred late and was associated with more extensive disease. Regional lymph node involvement was seen nearly 50% and was a common site for occult disease. The role of more extensive parietal peritoneal resection for recurrent disease should be evaluated prospectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic value and optimal resection outcome related factors of the secondary cytoreduction surgery (SCR) in Platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (PSOC) patients were still in doubt. The present retrospective study aims to determine the relationship between the objective response of secondary neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (SNAC) and the resection outcome of SCR. METHODS Data were reviewed from 142 type II PSOCs who underwent SCR in Jiangsu Institute of Cancer Research between 1996 and 2016. Among them, 55 cases received preliminary Platinum based SNAC before SCR. Logistic regression analysis was used to explore optimal SCR related factors. Cox proportional hazards model and log-rank test were used to assess the associations between the survival durations and covariates. RESULTS Optimal initial CRS (p = 0.02), disappearance of ascites after SNAC (p = 0.04) recurrent status (p = 0.02) and longer Platinum-free interval (p = 0.01) were the independent indicators of optimal SCR. Optimal SCR was associated with time to progression (TTP) but not overall survival (OS) (p = 0.04 and p = 0.41). The TTP and OS of PSOCs underwent SNAC were similar to those patients underwent SCR (p = 0.71, and p = 0.77, respectively) directly. CONCLUSIONS SNAC might be another choice for PSOCs were not suitable for directly SCR. Optimal SCR had survival benefit in PSOCs whenever underwent SNAC or not.

The Prevalence and associated Factors for Liver Metastases, Development and Prognosis in newly diagnosed Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A large Population-Based Study from the SEER Database. J Cancer 2020; 11:4861-4869. [PMID: 32626533 PMCID: PMC7330699 DOI: 10.7150/jca.40590] [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: 09/24/2019] [Accepted: 03/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Primary Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC), a malignant gynecologic disease, is considered one of the leading causes of mortality in women. The development of Liver Metastases (LM) in women with primary ovarian cancer commonly results in a poorer prognosis. This retrospective population-based study aims to measure the prevalence, prognostic factors, and associated risk factors for epithelial ovarian cancer patients with liver metastases (EOCLM). Materials and Methods: The current study cohort of patients based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database identified with primary ovarian cancer between the years 2010 and 2016. A chi-square test was employed to compare Metastatic differences among demographic and clinical factors. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis models were used to predict related prognostic factors for LM development. 7-year Kaplan-Meier curves were applied to compare the survival patterns of patients with and without LM. The Multivariable Cox regression model was used to estimate potential risk factors associated with LM related deaths. Results: 33895 eligible primary EOC patients were identified. Among them 2635 (7.77%) patients were initially diagnosed with de novo LM, and 31260 (92.23%) without metastases disease to any site. Non-serous histology type; Malignant Brenner Carcinoma, NOS (OR 1.94; CI: 1.39-2.71; P<0.001), T3/T1 stage (OR 5.65; CI: 3.87-8.24; P<0.001), N1/N0 stage (OR 1.67; CI: 1.43-4.95; P<0.001), grade; G3/G1 (OR 2.16; CI: 1.29-3.59, P<0.001), and cancer antigen-125; Elevated/Normal (OR 1.79; CI: 1.19-2.69, P<0.001) were significantly associated with LM occurrence. The median survival of EOC patients with LM was 12.0 (95% CI: 11.0-14.0; P<0.001) months. Multivariable cox regression showed being unmarried (HR 1.16; CI: 1.04-1.30; P=0.001), non-serous histology types, Mucinous (HR 2.38; CI: 1.82-3.12; P<0.001), Clear cell (HR 1.83; CI: 1.32-2.55; P<0.001), Malignant Brenner Carcinoma, NOS (HR 1.44; CI:1.23-1.66; P<0.001), Carcinosarcoma NOS, (HR 1.44; CI: 1.11-1.88; P<0.001) and radiotherapy (HR 1.52; CI: 1.12-2.06; P<0.001), were positively related to death. Chemotherapy (HR 0.30; CI: 1.12-2.06; P<0.001) and surgery (HR 0.34; CI: 0.29-0.39; P<0.001) were related with reduced rate of death. Conclusion: The retrospective cohort study showed that women with primary EOC had some high-risk factors associated with LM. LM can intensely decrease the survival of EOC patients. The findings of our research provided estimates for LM occurrence prediction and potential prognostic factors of EOC with de novo LM development. These findings can be useful for follow-up strategies, guidelines for screening, and treatment of EOCLM.

Abstract
Biomarkers are becoming increasingly important in the treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer. Recent work from many laboratories has begun to provide clinically meaningful biomarkers. This review summarizes the state of the science regarding biomarkers for stratifying early-stage patients into those who benefit from adjuvant treatment, primary debulking versus interval debulking, and specific targeted therapy. In addition, new molecular imaging technologies have been developed to allow the surgeon to resect subvisible tumor deposits. These efforts should increase clinical effectiveness while minimizing toxicities for patients.

Abstract
Outcomes of secondary cytoreduction surgery (SCS) were evaluated for morbidity, progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) and factors influencing results were explored. Retrospective analysis of all cases of SCS for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) was performed from October 2010 to December 2017. 62 patients were prospectively identified as candidates for SCS and 57 underwent SCS. 20(35%) patients required bowel resection/s, 24(42%) had nodal resections and 11(19%) had extensive upper abdominal surgery. 51(89%) achieved complete cytoreduction. After a median follow-up of 30 months (range 9-95 months), median PFS was 32 months (CI 17-76 months) and median OS has not reached. Seventeen patients have died and 32 have progressed. Three patients had Clavien-Dindo grade-3 and two had grade-4 morbidity. Patients who had multi-site recurrence had shorter median PFS (p = 0.04) and patients who required bowel resections had lower median OS (p = 0.009) compared to rest of the cohort.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? Retrospective studies have confirmed survival advantage for recurrence in epithelial ovarian cancer and recommend SCS for carefully selected patients. This finding is being evaluated in randomised control trials currently.What do the results of this study add? This study presents excellent results for survival outcomes after SCS and highlights importance of careful selection of patients with a goal to achieve complete cytoreduction. In addition, for the first time in literature, this study also explores various factors that may influence results and finds that there are no differences in survival outcomes whether these patients had early stage or advanced stage disease earlier. Patients who have multisite recurrence tend to have shorter PFS but no difference were noted for overall survival. Patients who have recurrence in bowels necessitating resection/s have a shorter median OS compared to rest of cohorts, however, still achieving a good survival time.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? These findings will raise awareness for the clinicians and patients while discussing surgical outcomes and would set an achievable standard to improve cancer services. The pattern of recurrence and associated outcomes also point towards difference in biological nature of recurrent disease and could provide an opportunity for scientists to study the biological makeup of these recurrent tumours.

High-grade complication is associated with poor overall survival after cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Int J Clin Oncol 2020; 25:984-994. [PMID: 31915944 DOI: 10.1007/s10147-019-01609-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2019] [Accepted: 12/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is increasingly used in peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) management. This modality is criticized for its high morbidity and mortality. We evaluate the morbidity and mortality of patients undergoing this procedure in our institution. METHODS A review of our institution's database was performed. All patients who underwent CRS/HIPEC between July 2011 and March 2018 were divided into three groups: no, low-grade, and high-grade complications. Prognostic factors were determined with Cox regression, while morbidity risk factors were analyzed using multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS 225 consecutive patients underwent CRS/HIPEC. The most common primary cancer types were colorectal (35.1%), appendiceal (25.8%), and ovarian (22.2%). Median age was 55 years old (range 14-77), and patients were typically female (68.0%). 38.7% developed low-grade complications and 14.7% had high-grade complications. No 30-day mortality was observed. Different tumor origins are associated with significant differences in overall survival (p < 0.001). Patients without complications had significantly better survival than those with high-grade complications (HR 0.35, 95% CI 0.15-0.81, p < 0.001). Males were more likely to develop low-grade complications (OR 3.30, 95% CI 1.31-8.30, p = 0.011). Intra-operative blood loss was associated with greater odds of developing any post-operative complications (OR 1.001, 95% CI 1.0003-1.002, p = 0.007; and OR 1.002, 95% CI 1.001-1.002, p < 0.001, for low and high grade, respectively). CONCLUSION Presence of high-grade complication was associated with poorer survival in patients after CRS/HIPEC. Pre-operative careful assessment of patients is pivotal to ensure favorable patient outcome following this complex procedure.

Abstract
Objective: The role of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is still controversial. Present analysis aims to evaluate the survival benefit of HIPEC in treatment of EOC patients. Methods: Articles related to 'HIPEC' and 'ovarian cancer' were comprehensively searched in four databases (PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE and Cochrane Library) up to 4 February 2018. Eligible studies were identified depending on the selection criteria. The survival outcome and adverse events were collected. The relationship between HIPEC and survival of EOC was assessed using random-effects models. Results: A total of 1464 patients from 17 trials were subjected to analysis. The pooled results showed that HIPEC significantly improved overall survival (OS, HR = 0.50, 95% CI 0.36-0.69; p = 0.000) and progression-free survival (PFS, HR = 0.57, 95% CI 0.47-0.69; p = 0.000) among EOC patients when compared with no HIPEC controls. Similar results were observed in each year rate of survival. Subgroup analysis didn't lead to the opposite results, except no significant increased 1-year of OS in primary EOC and 1- and 2-year of PFS in recurrent EOC treated with HIPEC were observed. No significant difference existed in the adverse events and mortality between HIPEC and no HIPEC. Conclusions: HIPEC is associated with improved OS and PFS in both primary and recurrent EOC. However, no significant increased 1- and 2-year of PFS were reached in recurrent EOC treated with HIPEC. Further prospective randomized controlled trials are warranted.

Abstract
Most women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) present with late-stage disease. As a result, globally, EOC is responsible for >150,000 deaths a year. Thus, a better understanding of risk factors for developing EOC is crucial for earlier screening and detection to improve survival. To that effort, there have been suggestions that there is an association of schizophrenia and cancer, possibly because metabolic changes are a hallmark of both cancer and schizophrenia (SZ). Perturbed choline metabolism has been documented in both diseases. Our objective was to use Mendelian randomization to evaluate whether SZ increased risk for developing EOC or the converse, and, whether SZ impacted 1- or 2-glycerophosphocholine (1- or 2-GPC) metabolites. We found that SZ conferred a weak but increased risk for EOC, but not the reverse (no evidence that EOC caused SZ). SZ was also causally associated with lower levels of two 1- or 2-GPC species and with suggestively lower levels in an additional three 1- or 2-GPCs. We postulate that perturbed choline metabolism in SZ may mimic or contribute to a "cholinic" phenotype, as observed in EOC cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most women with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer develop recurrent disease, despite maximal surgical cytoreduction and adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. In observational studies, secondary cytoreductive surgery has been associated with improved survival; however its use is controversial, because there are concerns that the improved outcomes may reflect selection bias rather than the superiority of secondary surgery. OBJECTIVE To compare the overall survival of women with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer treated at National Cancer Institute-designated cancer centers who receive secondary surgery vs chemotherapy. STUDY DESIGN This retrospective cohort study included women from 6 National Cancer Institute-designated cancer centers diagnosed with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2011. The primary outcome was overall survival. Propensity score matching was used to compare similar women who received secondary surgery vs chemotherapy. Additional analyses examined how these findings may be influenced by the prevalence of unobserved confounders at the time of recurrence. RESULTS Among 626 women, 146 (23%) received secondary surgery and 480 (77%) received chemotherapy. In adjusted analyses, patients who received secondary surgery were younger (P = 0.001), had earlier-stage disease at diagnosis (P = 0.002), and had longer disease-free intervals (P < 0.001) compared with those receiving chemotherapy. In the propensity score-matched groups (n = 244 patients), the median overall survival was 54 months in patients who received secondary surgery and 33 months in those treated with chemotherapy (P < 0.001). Among patients who received secondary surgery, 102 (70%) achieved optimal secondary cytoreduction. There were no significant differences in complication rates between the 2 groups. In sensitivity analyses, the survival advantage associated with secondary surgery could be explained by the presence of more multifocal recurrences (if 4.3 times more common), ascites (if 2.7 times more common), or carcinomatosis (if 2.1 times more common) among patients who received chemotherapy instead of secondary surgery. CONCLUSION Patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer who received secondary surgery had favorable surgical characteristics and were likely to have minimal residual disease following secondary surgery. These patients had a superior median overall survival compared with patients who received chemotherapy, although unmeasured confounders may explain this observed difference.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secondary surgical cytoreduction in women with platinum-sensitive, recurrent epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian-tube ("ovarian") cancer is widely practiced but has not been evaluated in phase 3 investigation. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who had received one previous therapy, had an interval during which no platinum-based chemotherapy was used (platinum-free interval) of 6 months or more, and had investigator-determined resectable disease (to no macroscopic residual disease) to undergo secondary surgical cytoreduction and then receive platinum-based chemotherapy or to receive platinum-based chemotherapy alone. Adjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel-carboplatin or gemcitabine-carboplatin) and use of bevacizumab were at the discretion of the investigator. The primary end point was overall survival. RESULTS A total of 485 patients underwent randomization, 240 to secondary cytoreduction before chemotherapy and 245 to chemotherapy alone. The median follow-up was 48.1 months. Complete gross resection was achieved in 67% of the patients assigned to surgery who underwent the procedure. Platinum-based chemotherapy with bevacizumab followed by bevacizumab maintenance was administered to 84% of the patients overall and was equally distributed between the two groups. The hazard ratio for death (surgery vs. no surgery) was 1.29 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.97 to 1.72; P = 0.08), which corresponded to a median overall survival of 50.6 months and 64.7 months, respectively. Adjustment for platinum-free interval and chemotherapy choice did not alter the effect. The hazard ratio for disease progression or death (surgery vs. no surgery) was 0.82 (95% CI, 0.66 to 1.01; median progression-free survival, 18.9 months and 16.2 months, respectively). Surgical morbidity at 30 days was 9%; 1 patient (0.4%) died from postoperative complications. Patient-reported quality of life decreased significantly after surgery but did not differ significantly between the two groups after recovery. CONCLUSIONS In this trial involving patients with platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian cancer, secondary surgical cytoreduction followed by chemotherapy did not result in longer overall survival than chemotherapy alone.

Gynecol Minim Invasive Ther 2019; 8:165-171. [PMID: 31741842 PMCID: PMC6849095 DOI: 10.4103/gmit.gmit_50_19] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2019] [Revised: 07/08/2019] [Accepted: 09/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: There are still contradictory opinions on the success rates of uterine artery embolization (UAE) for the treatment of myomas. In this scenario, our study aims to assess the effect of UAE on myoma shrinkage. Materials and Methods: The study included 337 women in reproductive age affected by a single symptomatic intramural myoma and declined surgery, undergoing UAE. The uterus and myoma diameters and volumes were determined on ultrasonographic scans before and 3, 6, and 12 months after the procedure. Results: The mean uterine volume before intervention was 226.46 ± 307.67 mm3, whereas myoma volume was 51.53 ± 65.53 mm3. Further myoma progression was registered in only four patients. In remaining women, uterus volume in average decreased for 149.99 ± 156.63 mm3, whereas myomas decreased for 36.57 ± 47.96 mm3. The mean volume reduction rate of the uterus was 49.54 ± 35.62 and for myoma was 57.58 ± 30.71. A significant decrease in both uterine and myoma volume was registered in every stage of the follow-up. The highest average decrease in uterine volume was in the first 3 months and myoma volume between 3 and 6 months following UAE. After 12 months follow-up, successful outcome (volume regression >50% respect to the baseline) was registered for uterus in 97.4% and for myoma in 67.9% of investigated patients. Conclusion: UAE was proven to allow a good success rate and can be considered as an effective alternative procedure for myoma treatment.
