Luo Y, Ma X. Construction and efficacy test of a survival prediction model for locally advanced cervical cancer based on anti-angiogenesis. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2024; 297:72-77. [PMID: 38581888 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2024.03.037] [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: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop and evaluate an anti-angiogenesis-based model for predicting the survival and the potential benefits of targeted therapy for patients with localized advanced cervical cancer. METHODS We collected clinical data from 163 patients with cervical cancer who received paclitaxel and cisplatin (TP) or TP plus bevacizumab during or after radiotherapy from June 2017 to February 2023. We analyzed the clinical measures of recent efficacy and overall survival (OS) using univariate and logistic multivariate and Cox regression methods, respectively. We constructed a nomogram model and evaluated its efficacy using the c-index, the area under the curve (AUC), a calibration curve, and the clinical decision curve (DCA). RESULTS We found that targeted agents and hemoglobin were independent determinants of near-term efficacy (P < 0.05), while targeted agents and stage were independent factors of OS (P < 0.05). We developed a predictive model for an OS prognostic nomogram and performed internal validation 1000 times using the Bootstrap re-sampling method. The c-index was 0.81, and the AUC was 0.84 (P < 0.01).The calibration curves showed a good agreement between the projected and actual values. The DCA curve indicated that the model had a high positive predictive accuracy. CONCLUSION We developed a novel anti-angiogenesis-based survival prediction model for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. This model could estimate the benefit of targeted therapy before treatment, and it had good validation.

Abstract
Background Carcinoma cervix is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer worldwide, with an estimated 604,000 new cases and 342,000 deaths worldwide in 2020. Carcinoma cervix is an uncommon malignancy in Kashmir. In this retrospective study, we have tried to find clinicopathological characteristics of carcinoma cervix along with the survival rates at our tertiary care hospital. Materials and Methods Case records of cervical cancer patients registered from January 1, 2015, to January 1, 2019, were retrieved. A total of 138 patients was registered. 22 had undergone surgery, and out of these 17 had received postoperative radiotherapy. 109 patients were treated with definitive chemoradiation and 13 with palliative radiotherapy. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize patient and treatment-related variables, and Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed for survival analysis. Results A total of 138 cases that were registered from 2015 to 2019 were included in this study. The median age at the presentation was 56 years. Most of the patients had a performance status of 1 (98 patients (71.01)). Most of the patients 110 (79.71%) were married before 20 years of age, only 1 patient was unmarried, and 85 (61.59) patients were multiparous in our study group. Only 14 (10.14%) patients in our study group had a history of oral contraceptive use and most of them were non-smokers [124 (89.80%)]. Multiple marriages were present in 8 (5.79%) patients only. The most common presenting symptom was bleeding per vagina (78.26%), and the maximum number of patients fall in the post-menopausal group (67.39%). 116 patients had squamous cell carcinoma histology while 10 patients had adenocarcinoma histology. Most of the patients had stage II and stage III disease (85 patients). At last, follow up out of 138 patients 75 (54.35) were alive. 3 year disease-free survival was 54.34% and 3-year overall survival was 72.46%. Conclusion Carcinoma cervix is an uncommon malignancy in Kashmir because of different socio-cultural and religious practices but the response to treatment, toxicity profile, and survival are similar to the rest of the world.

A phase III randomized, controlled trial of nedaplatin versus cisplatin concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with cervical cancer. ESMO Open 2022; 7:100565. [PMID: 35994789 PMCID: PMC9588898 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2022.100565] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Revised: 07/15/2022] [Accepted: 07/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the non-inferiority of nedaplatin-based and cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy in cervical cancer patients. DESIGN Patients aged 28-82 years with pathologically diagnosed cervical cancer (stage IB-IVA) were randomly chosen for the study. Patients in both the cisplatin and nedaplatin groups received radiotherapy and weekly intravenous nedaplatin 30 mg/m2 or cisplatin 40 mg/m2 concurrently. RESULTS One hundred and sixty patients who received treatment between 10 May 2018 and 31 August 2020 were included. The 3-year overall survival in the nedaplatin group (median 30.5 months) was not significantly different from that in the cisplatin group (28.5 months; hazard ratio 0.131, 95% confidence interval 0.016-1.068; P = 0.058). No significant differences in hematological toxicity were observed between the two groups. Vomiting (40 versus 61), nausea (44 versus 67), and anorexia (52 versus 71) were more common in the cisplatin group whereas effects on liver function, including total bilirubin (7 versus 3), alanine aminotransferase (7 versus 2), and aspartate aminotransferase (6 versus 2), were more common in the nedaplatin group. Four patients in the cisplatin group had grade I creatinine elevation, whereas none in the nedaplatin group had abnormal creatinine levels. Two patients in the nedaplatin group discontinued concurrent chemotherapy because of infusion, and one patient in the cisplatin group discontinued treatment because of infusion-induced dizziness. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that nedaplatin has a milder gastrointestinal reaction but a more significant effect on liver function than cisplatin. In patients with cervical cancer, nedaplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy could serve as an alternative treatment to cisplatin.

Abstract
Background In this trial, we aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of radiotherapy with nedaplatin or cisplatin in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. Methods We conducted an open-label, non-inferiority, phase III, randomized, controlled trial. Eligible patients with stage IIB-IVA cervical carcinoma were randomly assigned to receive either nedaplatin or cisplatin for two cycles concurrently with radiotherapy. We reported the therapy-associated harms and survival. The study was registered with chictr.org.cn, number ChiCTR1800020527. Results We randomly assigned 68 patients to nedaplatin-based or cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Study treatment was stopped early after a data analysis found a higher number of patients suffered severe hematologic harms in the nedaplatin group than in the cisplatin group. Patients in the nedaplatin group had a significantly higher frequency of grade 3-4 neutropenia (19·4% vs. 13%; P < 0·001), severe thrombocytopenia (16·1% vs. 4·3%), and grade 1-2 anemia (51·6% vs. 43·5%) than patients in the cisplatin group. The 1-year PFS and OS in the nedaplatin and cisplatin groups were similar. Conclusion Our findings showed that nedaplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy expressed remarkably higher severe hematologic harms which were mortal. Though the results were negative, the experiences and lessons we learned from it were important.

Abstract
The presence of intermediate risk factors reduces the predictability of radical hysterectomy, demanding the use of adjuvant therapy for treatment of Early stage cervical cancer (ESCC) patients. Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) and chemoradiotherapy (CRT) has been widely used with varied efficacy and safety issues. Therefore, the aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to update the available evidence and assess the effect of post-surgical adjuvant RT versus adjuvant CRT on survival rate and complications/toxicities in management of ESCC patients with intermediate risk factors. PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science (WOS) and CENTRAL were searched using a combination of relevant keywords. All studies comparing outcomes of adjuvant RT versus CRT in ESCC patients with intermediate-risk factors in terms of recurrence free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS) and toxicities/complications were included. Both qualitative and quantitative analysis was carried out. The risk of bias assessment was done using Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) for retrospective cohort studies and Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool was used for randomized clinical trials. Eleven retrospective cohort studies and two randomized clinical trials were included in this review. Adjuvant CRT was found to have better RFS with ESCC patients with multiple intermediate risk factors with OR 3.11 95% CI [1.04, 4.99], p < 0.0001; i2 = 6%. However, similar benefit was observed between both regimens in presence of a single intermediate risk factor OR 1.80 95% CI [0.96, 3.36], p = 0.07; i2 = 0%. Grade 3 or 4 haematological toxicity among patients receiving post-surgical adjuvant RT versus adjuvant CRT showed increased association of toxicity with adjuvant CRT with OR 7.73 95%CI [3.40, 17.59], p < 0.0001; i2 = 62%. Adjuvant CRT shows favourable RFS and OS in ESCC patients with multiple intermediate risk factors. CRT also showed greater incidence of grade 3 or 4 haematological and non-haematiological toxicity, however, the same could be well tolerated when used within the recommended dosage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of dose-painted intensity-modulated radiotherapy (DP-IMRT) combined with chemotherapy on stage IIIB cervical cancer. METHODS A total of 107 stage IIIB cervical cancer patients were treated with DP-IMRT combined with chemotherapy. The planning target volume (PTV) was divided into regions with different prescribed absorbed doses (so-called PTV-subvolume [PTVsv]): PTVsv1 (the part of the PTV that overlaps with the organ at risk (OAR)) received 39.6-45 Gy, 1.8 Gy/fraction (fx); and PTVsv2 (the part of the PTV that does not overlap with the OAR) received 44-50 Gy, 2.0 Gy/fx. The lymph nodes were simultaneously boosted; lymph nodes with a short axis dimension <1 cm received 50-55 Gy, 2.0-2.4 Gy/fx, while nodes with a short axis dimension >1 cm received 55-66 Gy, 2.2-2.6 Gy/fx. External radiotherapy was followed by intracavitary brachytherapy. Patients were followed up regularly to collect the survival information. RESULTS Five years after therapy, the overall survival rate and progression-free survival rate were 61.0% and 55.0%, respectively. The cumulative rates for total grade 3 or higher chronic gastrointestinal or genitourinary toxicity were 4.67% and 1.9% respectively. CONCLUSION Without compromising the primary PTV, DP-IMRT achieved good outcomes for stage IIIB cervical cancer patients with a favorable gastrointestinal toxicity profile.

Role and mechanism of miR-4778-3p and its targets NR2C2 and Med19 in cervical cancer radioresistance. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2018; 508:210-216.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of miR-4778-3p on the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer cells and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. Tissue samples were collected from eight patients with cervical cancer prior to chemoradiotherapy. MicroRNA chip analyses, RT-PCR, gene transfection, CCK8, wound healing and Transwell assays, colony-forming assay, western blot, and the Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay System were used to evaluate the role of miR-4778-3p in cervical cancer radiosensitivity and its relationships with target molecules NR2C2 and Med19. Thirty-two differentially expressed miRNA molecules (fold-change > 2; p < 0.05) associated with cervical cancer radioresistance were identified. The expression of miR-4778-3p was significantly lower in recurrent or metastatic patients than in control subjects. In vitro studies using radioresistant HeLa and SiHa cervical cancer cell lines showed that miR-4778-3p upregulation significantly inhibited cell proliferation, invasiveness, and migration after irradiation. There was also a significant increase in apoptosis and a significant decrease in the proportion of cells at the G2/M phase. Further, miR-4778-3p upregulation led to increased expression of apoptosis-related molecules, such as Bax, Caspase-3, Caspase-8, and Caspase-9. Reporter gene assays showed that miR-4778-3p bound specifically to NR2C2 and Med19 and negatively regulated their expression. Thus, miR-4778-3p reduces the vitality, proliferation, and migration of radioresistant cervical cancer cells and may regulate the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer by targeting and regulating NR2C2 and Med19 expression.

Abstract
Background To investigate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy plus anti-epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody followed by surgery for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Patients and methods Patients with histologically proven LACC were enrolled into this prospective study. All patients received intensity-modulated radiation therapy with conventional fractionation. Weekly cisplatin or nedaplatin was administered concurrently with intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Nimotuzumab, a humanized anti-epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody, was given at a dose of 200 mg per week for 6 cycles. Approximately 1 month after the completion of neoadjuvant treatment, the patients were assessed for clinical tumor response and operability based on MRI and gynecological examination. For those who were considered to be candidates for surgery, radical hysterectomy, and pelvic lymph node dissection were performed 5–6 weeks after the completion of neoadjuvant therapy. Results Twenty-eight patients were enrolled. Clinical complete response and partial response were found in 8 (28.5%) and 20 (71.5%) patients, respectively. Four patients were not eligible for surgery and 2 patients refused surgery although they were assessed as surgical candidates. They were not included in this analysis. Radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection were performed for the remaining 22 patients. Among them, 8 (36.4%) had complete pathology response, 9 (40.9%) presented with persistent atypical cells or cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, and 5 (22.7%) presented with macroscopic and/or microscopic residual disease, according to the pathological evaluation. Median follow-up time was 22 months (range, 5–39 months). The 2-year locoregional control rate, progression-free survival rate, distant metastasis-free survival rate, and overall survival rate were 95.0%, 85.2%, 84.0%, and 90.0%, respectively. Acute toxicities were mild in general and easily manageable. Chronic toxicities were mainly limited to grade 1. No severe late toxicities were observed. Conclusion Concurrent chemoradiotherapy plus nimotuzumab followed by surgery is highly effective and safe in LACC. Further studies are warranted to confirm the findings.

Abstract
PurposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of using nedaplatin to replace cisplatin for concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) in patients with newly diagnosed locally advanced cervical cancer.MethodsThe medical records of 155 patients with cervical cancer who had undergone CCRT with cisplatin (n = 85) or nedaplatin (n = 70) between January 2012 and January 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. Propensity score analysis with 1:1 matching with the nearest neighbor matching method was performed to assess response rates, progression-free survival, overall survival, and toxicity between 2 groups.ResultsPropensity score matching identified 63 patients in each group. After matching, compared with patients treated with cisplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CisRT), we found that patients treated with nedaplatin-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (NedaRT) had a significant higher recurrence rate (25.4% vs 42.9%; P = 0.04). In addition, the 3-year progression-free survival rate for NedaRT group was also worse than that for the CisRT group (52.2% vs 63.4%, P = 0.03). There was no difference in the overall response rates between the CisRT and NedaRT groups (87.3% and 90.5%, respectively; P = 0.57). The rates of 3-year overall survival and grades 3 to 4 toxicities were similar between the 2 groups.ConclusionsThe clinical outcome of this cohort of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer treated with CCRT did in no way provide support for the use of nedaplatin in place of cisplatin in chemoradiation and demonstrated no equivalence of the 2 drugs. Cautions should be taken for the replacement among platinum complexes in cancer treatment.

Abstract
Identification of mechanisms that influence the therapeutic response and survival in patients with cancer is important. It is known that the genetic variability of the host, including presence of genetic polymorphisms in genes involved in DNA damage response, serves a crucial role in the prognosis of these patients. The present hospital-based retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the influence of TP53 Arg72Pro (rs1042522) polymorphism in the clinical outcome of 260 Caucasian patients diagnosed with cervical cancer and treated with concomitant radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The polymorphism genotyping was assessed using allelic discrimination by quantiative polymerase chain reaction. The results indicate that the TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism did not significantly impact the response to therapy (P=0.571) nor disease-free survival (P=0.081). However, the polymorphism did influence overall survival, as increased median survival time was observed for patients carrying Arg/Pro genotype when compared with patients with Arg/Arg and Pro/Pro genotypes (126 months vs. 111 months, respectively; P=0.047). To conclude, the present findings suggest that a pharmacogenomic profile based on the genetic background of patients, including the analysis of the TP53 genotypes, may individualize treatment nad assist in the selection of therapies that may improve clinical outcome and lower toxicity for the patients.

The Prognosis and Risk Stratification Based on Pelvic Lymph Node Characteristics in Patients With Locally Advanced Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma Treated With Concurrent Chemoradiotherapy. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2018; 26:1472-9. [PMID: 27400321 DOI: 10.1097/igc.0000000000000778] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to determine the prognostic significance of pelvic lymph node (PLN) characteristics and perform risk stratification in patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of 609 patients with Federation Internationale de Gynecologie et d'Obstetrique (FIGO) stage II to IVa who underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy, compared overall survival (OS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), and pelvic recurrence-free survival between patients with or without PLN involvement. We further analyzed prognostic factors for OS and DMFS including FIGO stage, tumor volume, and lymph node (LN) characteristics in 300 patients with PLN involvement. RESULTS The 3-year OS rate was 81.7% versus 92.8% (P = 0.002) and the 3-year DMFS rate was 79.3% versus 92.7% (P = 0.006) in patients with or without PLN involvement, respectively. With univariable analysis, FIGO stage, LN-volume, LN-number, LN-diameter, and matted/necrotic LN affected both OS and DMFS. Based on multivariable analysis, we created a risk stratification model. For OS, the independent risk factors were FIGO stage III or IVa, LN-volume of 3 cm or more, LN-diameter of 1.5 cm or more, and matted/necrotic LN. The low-risk group (no risk factors), mid-risk group (1 or 2 risk factors), and high-risk group (3 or 4 risk factors) had a 3-year OS of 96.6%, 84.9%, and 64.7%, respectively (P = 0.005). For DMFS, LN-diameter of 1.5 cm or more, LN-number of 3 or more, and matted/necrotic LN were the independent risk factors. The subgroups for DMFS were the low-risk group (no risk factors), the mid-risk group (1 risk factor), and the high-risk group (2 or 3 risk factors), and the 3-year DMFS was 92.4%, 76.2%, and 64.6%, respectively (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The prognosis was significantly poorer for patients with high-risk lymph node characteristics. Using this risk stratification, we should select the most appropriate and individualized treatment modality to improve outcomes in those patients with a poorer prognosis.

Chemoradiotherapy followed by consolidation chemotherapy involving paclitaxel and carboplatin and in FIGO stage IIIB/IVA cervical cancer patients. J Gynecol Oncol 2017; 28:e15. [PMID: 27958682 PMCID: PMC5165064 DOI: 10.3802/jgo.2017.28.e15] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2016] [Revised: 10/05/2016] [Accepted: 11/10/2016] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of paclitaxel plus carboplatin (TC)-based concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by consolidation chemotherapy in the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IIIB/IVA cervical cancer patients. Methods We reviewed the medical records of FIGO stage IIIB/IVA cervical cancer patients (n=30) who had been intended to be treated with TC-based CCRT followed by consolidation chemotherapy (TC-CCRT-group) from April 2012–May 2016. Patients who had been treated with CCRT involving a single platinum agent (CCRT-group; n=52) or definitive radiotherapy alone (RT-group; n=74) from January 1997–September 2012 were also identified and used as historical controls. Survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Results Of the 30 patients included in the TC-CCRT-group, 22 patients (73.3%) completed the planned TC-based CCRT. The most frequently observed acute grade 3/4 hematological toxicities were leukopenia and neutropenia, and diarrhea was the most common acute grade 3/4 non-hematological toxicity. After a median follow-up of 35 months, 9 patients (30.0%) had developed recurrent disease. The patients’ estimated 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 67.9% and 90.8%, respectively. In comparisons with historical control groups, the survival outcomes of TC-CCRT-group was significantly superior to CCRT-group in terms of OS (p=0.011) and significantly superior to RT-group in terms of both PFS (p=0.009) and OS (p<0.001). Conclusion TC-based CCRT followed by consolidation chemotherapy is safe and effective. A randomized controlled study needs to be conducted to further evaluate the efficacy of this multimodal approach in this patient population.

Abstract
Objective To compare the survival outcomes of patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma/adenosquamous carcinoma (AC/ASC) among patients with locally advanced cervical cancer that were treated with definitive radiotherapy. Methods The baseline characteristics and outcome data of patients with locally advanced cervical cancer who were treated with definitive radiotherapy between November 1993 and February 2014 were collected and retrospectively reviewed. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to investigate the prognostic significance of AC/ASC histology. Results The patients with AC/ASC of the cervix exhibited significantly shorter overall survival (OS) (p=0.004) and progression-free survival (PFS) (p=0.002) than the patients with SCC of the cervix. Multivariate analysis showed that AC/ASC histology was an independent negative prognostic factor for PFS. Among the patients who displayed AC/ASC histology, larger tumor size, older age, and incomplete response to radiotherapy were found to be independent prognostic factors. PFS was inversely associated with the number of poor prognostic factors the patients exhibited (the estimated 1-year PFS rates; 100.0%, 77.8%, 42.8%, 0.0% for 0, 1, 2, 3 factors, respectively). Conclusion Locally advanced cervical cancer patients with AC/ASC histology experience significantly worse survival outcomes than those with SCC. Further clinical studies are warranted to develop a concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) protocol that is specifically tailored to locally advanced cervical AC/ASC.

Abstract
Purpose The primary output of hospital-based cancer registries is data on cancer stage and treatment-based survival that can be used to evaluate patient care, but because there are many challenges in obtaining follow-up details, a separate study on patterns of care and patterns of survival for patients at selected sites was initiated under the National Cancer Registry Programme of India. This article presents the results for cervical cancer. Patients and Methods A standardized patient information form was used to record patient information, and data were entered into a central repository—the National Centre for Disease Informatics and Research. The study patients were from 12 institutions and were diagnosed between January 1, 2006, and December 31, 2008. Patterns of treatment were assessed for 7,336 patients, and patterns of survival were determined for 2,669 patients from six institutions, at least 70% of whom had data regarding follow-up as of December 31, 2012. Results Of 7,336 patients, 55.5% received optimal radiotherapy (RT). In all, 80.9% of patients had locally advanced cancers (stage IIB to IVA), 51.1% received RT alone, and 44.4% received concurrent chemoradiation (RTCT). In 1,753 patients with locally advanced cancers, significantly better survival was observed with RTCT than with RT alone (5-year cumulative survival, 70.2% v 47.3%; hazard ratio, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.56). Conclusion A conservative estimate indicates that, on an annual basis, 38,771 patients with cervical cancers in India alone do not get the benefit of RTCT and thus they have poorer survival. There is a need to reiterate the National Cancer Institute's alert that advised supplementing chemotherapy to radiation for locally advanced cancer of the cervix in the context of the developing world, where 84.3% of cancers of the cervix occur.
