Chase DM, Mahajan A, Scott DA, Hawkins N, Kalilani L. The impact of varying levels of residual disease following cytoreductive surgery on survival outcomes in patients with ovarian cancer: a meta-analysis. BMC Womens Health 2024; 24:179. [PMID: 38491366 PMCID: PMC10941390 DOI: 10.1186/s12905-024-02977-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/17/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Residual disease following cytoreductive surgery in patients with ovarian cancer has been associated with poorer survival outcomes compared with no residual disease. We performed a meta-analysis to assess the impact of varying levels of residual disease status on survival outcomes in patients with ovarian cancer who have undergone primary cytoreductive surgery or interval cytoreductive surgery in the setting of new therapies for this disease. METHODS Medline, Embase, and Cochrane databases (January 2011 - July 2020) and grey literature, bibliographic and key conference proceedings, were searched for eligible studies. Fixed and random-effects meta-analyses compared progression and survival by residual disease level across studies. Heterogeneity between comparisons was explored via type of surgery, disease stage, and type of adjuvant chemotherapy. RESULTS Of 2832 database and 16 supplementary search articles screened, 50 studies were selected; most were observational studies. The meta-analysis showed that median progression-free survival and overall survival decreased progressively with increasing residual disease (residual disease categories of 0 cm, > 0-1 cm and > 1 cm). Compared with no residual disease, hazard ratios (HR) for disease progression increased with increasing residual disease category (1.75 [95% confidence interval: 1.42, 2.16] for residual disease > 0-1 cm and 2.14 [1.34, 3.39] for residual disease > 1 cm), and also for reduced survival (HR versus no residual disease, 1.75 [ 1.62, 1.90] for residual disease > 0-1 cm and 2.32 [1.97, 2.72] for residual disease > 1 cm). All comparisons were significant (p < 0.05). Subgroup analyses showed an association between residual disease and disease progression/reduced survival irrespective of type of surgery, disease stage, or type of adjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis provided an update on the impact of residual disease following primary or interval cytoreductive surgery, and demonstrated that residual disease was still highly predictive of progression-free survival and overall survival in adults with ovarian cancer despite changes in ovarian cancer therapy over the last decade. Higher numerical categories of residual disease were associated with reduced survival than lower categories.

Correlation between progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with ovarian cancer after cytoreductive surgery: a systematic literature review. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2023; 33:1602-1611. [PMID: 37643825 PMCID: PMC10579502 DOI: 10.1136/ijgc-2023-004487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 08/31/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This analysis aimed to better define the relationship between progression-free survival and overall survival in adult patients with ovarian cancer (including fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer) following primary cytoreductive surgery or interval cytoreductive surgery. METHODS A systematic literature review was carried out across the Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Central databases on 7 July 2020 (date limits 1 January 2011 to 7 July 2020) to identify studies with the following eligibility criteria: clinical trials/observational studies including >200 patients with ovarian cancer aged ≥18 years, evaluating overall survival/progression-free survival following cytoreductive surgery by residual disease status in the United States, Europe, Japan, or China. Weighted linear regression models were used to assess any correlation between median progression-free survival and overall survival, and between logHR for progression-free survival and logHR for overall survival. Risk of bias was assessed for all included studies. RESULTS Of the 50 studies reported, 43 were observational studies (41 retrospective and two prospective cohort studies), and seven were reporting for randomized clinical trials-of which four were retrospective data analyses. For analyses of the relationship between overall survival and progression-free survival, 21 studies were eligible. The weighted linear regression model showed a strong positive association between the two survival endpoints. Goodness-of-fit analysis measured the adjusted R2 as 0.84 (p<0.001); a positive association was also observed between logHRs for overall survival and progression-free survival in the included studies. CONCLUSIONS Median progression-free survival was predictive of median overall survival. This correlation between progression-free survival and overall survival after primary treatment for ovarian cancer highlights the validity of progression-free survival as a primary endpoint. Observational studies contributed most data, with limited information on disease stage and histology.

Beyond post-operative readmissions: analysis of the impact of unplanned readmissions during primary treatment of advanced-stage epithelial ovarian cancer on long-term oncology outcome. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2023; 33:741-748.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple studies have assessed post-operative readmissions in advanced ovarian cancer. OBJECTIVE To evaluate all unplanned readmissions during the primary treatment period of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer, and the impact of readmission on progression-free survival. METHODS This was a single institution retrospective study from January 2008 to October 2018. Χ2/Fisher's exact and t-test, or Kruskal-Wallis test were used. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the effect of covariates in progression-free survival analysis. RESULTS A total of 484 patients (279 primary cytoreductive surgery, 205 neoadjuvant chemotherapy) were analyzed. In total, 272 of 484 (56%; 37% primary cytoreductive surgery, 32% neoadjuvant chemotherapy, p=0.29) patients were readmitted during the primary treatment period. Overall, 42.3% of the readmissions were surgery related, 47.8% were chemotherapy related, and 59.6% were cancer related but not related to surgery or chemotherapy, and each readmission could qualify for more than one reason. Readmitted patients had a higher rate of chronic kidney disease (4.1% vs 1.0%, p=0.038). Post-operative, chemotherapy, and cancer-related readmissions were similar between the two groups. However, the percentage of inpatient treatment days due to unplanned readmission was twice as high for primary cytoreductive surgery at 2.2% vs 1.3% for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (p<0.001). Despite longer readmissions in the primary cytoreductive surgery group, Cox regression analysis demonstrated that readmissions did not affect progression-free survival (HR=1.22, 95% CI 0.98 to 1.51; p=0.08). Primary cytoreductive surgery, higher modified Frailty Index, grade 3 disease, and optimal cytoreduction were associated with longer progression-free survival. CONCLUSIONS In this study, 35% of the women with advanced ovarian cancer had at least one unplanned readmission during the entire treatment time. Patients treated by primary cytoreductive surgery spent more days during readmission than those with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Readmissions did not affect progression-free survival and may not be valuable as a quality metric.

Abstract
Primary debulking surgery (PDS) has remained the only treatment of ovarian cancer with survival advantage since its development in the 1970s. However, survival advantage is only observed in patients who are optimally resected. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has emerged as an alternative for patients in whom optimal resection is unlikely and/or patients with comorbidities at high risk for perioperative complications. The purpose of this review is to summarize the evidence to date for PDS and NACT in the treatment of stage III/IV ovarian carcinoma. We systematically searched the PubMed database for relevant articles. Prior to 2010, NACT was reserved for non-surgical candidates. After publication of EORTC 55971, the first randomized trial demonstrating non-inferiority of NACT followed by interval debulking surgery, NACT was considered in a wider breadth of patients. Since EORTC 55971, 3 randomized trials-CHORUS, JCOG0602, and SCORPION-have studied NACT versus PDS. While CHORUS supported EORTC 55971, JCOG0602 failed to demonstrate non-inferiority and SCORPION failed to demonstrate superiority of NACT. Despite conflicting data, a subset of patients would benefit from NACT while preserving survival including poor surgical candidates and inoperable disease. Further randomized trials are needed to assess the role of NACT.

Frailty based on the memorial Sloan Kettering Frailty Index is associated with surgical decision making, clinical trial participation, and overall survival among older women with ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2021; 161:687-692. [PMID: 33773807 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2021.03.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2020] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine whether the Memorial Sloan Kettering Frailty Index (MSK-FI) is associated with decision-making in older women surgically treated for advanced-stage ovarian cancer. METHODS We retrospectively applied the MSK-FI to women ≥70 years with newly diagnosed advanced-stage ovarian cancer surgically treated at our institution from 01/2001-05/2017. MSK-FI components, including 10 comorbidities and functional assessment, were extracted from medical records. The MSK-FI ranges from 0 to 11, with higher scores indicating greater frailty. The primary outcome was the association between frailty and rate of primary debulking surgery (PDS), for which a multivariable logistic regression was used, adjusted for stage and histology. RESULTS We identified 430 women treated with PDS (n = 231, 54%) or neoadjuvant chemotherapy/interval debulking (n = 199, 46%) with complete data. MSK-FI score distribution was: "0", 95 patients (22%); "1", 172 (40%); "2", 89 (21%); and "3+", 74 (17%). More-frail patients were less likely to have undergone PDS (OR for a unit increase of MSK-FI: 0.64; 95%CI, 0.53-0.77; p < 0.0001). Grade 3+ complications and unintended intensive care admission occurred in 40 (9%) and 38 (9%) women, respectively, but were not associated with frailty (OR 1.21; 95%CI, 0.96-1.52; p = 0.11). More-frail patients were more likely to delay postoperative chemotherapy (non-linear association p = 0.009) and less likely to enroll in research (OR 0.84; 95%CI, 0.70-1.00; p = 0.049). Greater frailty was associated with poorer overall survival (HR 1.16; 95%CI, 1.05-1.30; p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Frailty, as calculated by the MSK-FI, is strongly associated with treatment approach in older women with advanced ovarian cancer, suggesting objective or subjective correlates of the MSK-FI influence decision-making.

Cost-effectiveness of laparoscopic disease assessment in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2021; 161:56-62.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine if laparoscopy is a cost-effective way to assess disease resectability in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. METHODS A cost-effectiveness analysis from a health care payer perspective was performed comparing two strategies: (1) a standard evaluation strategy, where a conventional approach to treatment planning was used to assign patients to either primary cytoreduction (PCS) or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with interval cytoreduction (NACT), and (2) a laparoscopy strategy, where patients considered candidates for PCS would undergo laparoscopy to triage between PCS or NACT based on the laparoscopy-predicted likelihood of complete gross resection. A microsimulation model was developed that included diagnostic work-up, surgical and adjuvant treatment, perioperative complications, and progression-free survival (PFS). Model parameters were derived from the literature and our published data. Effectiveness was defined in quality-adjusted PFS years. Results were tested with deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analysis (PSA). The willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold was set at $50,000 per year of quality-adjusted PFS. RESULTS The laparoscopy strategy led to additional costs (average additional cost $7034) but was also more effective (average 4.1 months of additional quality-adjusted PFS). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of laparoscopy was $20,376 per additional year of quality-adjusted PFS. The laparoscopy strategy remained cost-effective even as the cost added by laparoscopy increased. The benefit of laparoscopy was influenced by mitigation of serious complications and their associated costs. The laparoscopy strategy was cost-effective across a range of WTP thresholds. CONCLUSIONS Performing laparoscopy is a cost-effective way to improve primary treatment planning for patients with untreated advanced ovarian cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) after cytoreductive surgery has been extensively studied in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis from various malignancies. However, the effectiveness of HIPEC for ovarian cancer is still controversial. Therefore, we performed this meta-analysis to identify patients with ovarian cancer who can obtain survival benefit from HIPEC. METHODS Articles regarding HIPEC in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched till December 2018. In total, 13 case-control studies and two randomized controlled trials were included in this meta-analysis. We investigated the effect of HIPEC on disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), and performed subgroup analyses based on the study design, adjustment of confounding variables, and quality of the study. RESULTS HIPEC improved both DFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.603; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.513-0.709) and OS (HR, 0.640; 95% CI, 0.519-0.789). In cases of primary disease, HIPEC improved DFS (HR, 0.580; 95% CI, 0.476-0.706) and OS (HR, 0.611; 95% CI, 0.376-0.992). Subgroup analyses revealed that HIPEC did not improve OS but improved DFS of patients with residual tumors ≤1 cm or no visible tumors. In cases of recurrent disease, HIPEC was associated with better OS (HR, 0.566; 95% CI, 0.379-0.844) but not with DFS. Subgroup analyses also revealed similar tendencies. However, HIPEC improved DFS of patients with residual tumors ≤1 cm or no visible tumors, while it improved OS of only those with residual tumors ≤1 cm. CONCLUSIONS HIPEC may improve DFS of patients with ovarian cancer when residual tumors were ≤1 cm or not visible. It may also improve OS of only patients with recurrent disease whose residual tumors were ≤1 cm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether patients with advanced tubo-ovarian high-grade serous cancer (HGSC) fare better after upfront debulking surgery (UDS) or neoadjuvant chemotherapy with interval debulking surgery (NACT-IDS) remains controversial. METHODS We studied patients with HGSC who underwent UDS or NACT-IDS between July 2000 and December 2015, with peritonectomy procedures combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Clinical reports were included peritoneal cancer index (PCI), NACT responses, surgical complexity score (SCS), completeness of cytoreduction (CC), complete follow-up with timing, site, and treatment of recurrence. Outcome measures were morbidity, progression-free survival (PFS), PFS2, and overall survival during a mean 5-year follow-up. RESULTS A total of 34 patients (23.6%) underwent UDS and 110 (76.4%) NACT-IDS both combined with HIPEC. At a median 66.3-month follow-up, patients who underwent UDS or NACT-IDS had similar outcomes. NACT subgroup responses correlated with PCI, SCS, morbidity, and CC. Patients who underwent UDS had lower recurrence rates than those who responded partly or poorly to NACT (PFS, P < .04; PFS2, P < .01). Despite HIPEC, the peritoneal disease recurred in 42.5% of the overall patients. CONCLUSION In patients with primary HGSC who undergo UDS or NACT-IDS, despite similar outcomes, peritonectomy procedures combined with HIPEC seem unable to prevent peritoneal recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine if the primary treatment approach (primary debulking surgery (PDS) versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery (NACT-IDS)) influences the pattern of first recurrence in patients with completely cytoreduced advanced high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 178 patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIC-IV HGSOC, complete gross resection during PDS (n = 124) or IDS (n = 54) from January 2008-March 2013, and baseline and first recurrence contrast-enhanced computed tomography scans. Clinical characteristics and number of disease sites at baseline were analyzed for associations with time to recurrence. In 135 patients who experienced recurrence, the overlap in disease locations between baseline and recurrence and the number of new disease locations at recurrence were analyzed according to the primary treatment approach. RESULTS At univariate and multivariate analyses, NACT-IDS was associated with more overlapping locations between baseline and first recurrence (p ≤ 0.003) and fewer recurrences in new anatomic locations (p ≤ 0.043) compared with PDS. The same results were found in a subgroup that received intra-peritoneal adjuvant chemotherapy after either treatment approach. At univariate analysis, patient age, primary treatment approach, adjuvant chemotherapy route, and number of disease locations at baseline were associated with time to recurrence (p ≤ 0.009). At multivariate analysis, older patient age, NACT-IDS, and greater disease locations at baseline remained significant (p ≤ 0.018). CONCLUSION The distribution of disease at the time of first recurrence varied with the choice of primary treatment. Compared to patients treated with PDS, patients who underwent NACT-IDS experienced recurrence more often in the same locations as the original disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of multiple clinical features upon the outcome of interval cytoreductive surgery and thus upon the survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer and primary peritoneal carcinoma. METHODS A retrospective analysis of patients receiving NACT followed by IDS between 2009 and 2017. Patients were analyzed according to the pre-NACT CA125, pre-IDS CA125, pre-IDS CA125 decline, patients' pre-IDS BMI, multisite bowel involvement and different working years of surgeons, for their influence upon the IDS outcome (e.g. optimal vs suboptimal) and the survival. RESULTS After interval debulking surgery following 1-6 cycles of NACT, all patients analyzed were identified as optimal (n = 113) and suboptimal (n = 47) based on patients' record. The PFS/OS were 21/68 months and 9/26 months in optimal and suboptimal groups, respectively (p = .000, p = .000). Although differential levels of pre-IDS CA125, pre-IDS CA125 decline, bowel involvement and surgeons' working years were found to be significantly different between the two groups, surgeons' working years and multisite bowel invasion were the independent factors for IDS outcome, and the latter one was also highly related to survival. CONCLUSIONS Following NACT, the rate of optimal IDS might be improved for patients without multisite bowel involvement. For those with bowel involvement, management strategy made by well-experienced surgeons might be a key factor for the outcome of IDS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the seventh most common cancer among women in the world and the leading cause of death from gynecological malignancies. The standard treatment for advanced EOC consists of optimal primary debulking surgery (PDS) associated with an adjuvant chemotherapy. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and interval debulking surgery (IDS) have been proposed in the management of advanced EOC to increase the rate of complete citoreductive surgery and to reduce morbidity and mortality. This systematic review and meta-analysis is conducted to compare the oncologic and postoperative outcomes of NACT and IDS with PDS followed by chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We conducted a search on the electronic databases PubMed/Medline, Cochrane and Scopus. All randomized controlled trials, cohort and case-control studies comparing PDS and IDS in ovarian cancer published in English until 28 February 2019 were considered eligible. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Twenty studies were included in the systematic review. As regards the meta-analysis, only studies that allowed the data we needed to be extracted were included: five were included for the evaluation of overall survival (OS) and PFS and 9 for the evaluation of major postoperative complications and days of hospital stay. CONCLUSIONS From the meta-analysis of the current available literature, none of the two investigated procedures has proven to be superior in terms of OS and PFS in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer. However surgical complexity and postoperative complications are reduced in the IDS group.

Abstract
Debulking surgery is the key step of advanced stage ovarian cancer treatment with chemotherapy. The quality of surgical resection is the main prognosis factor, thus a complete resection must be achieved (grade A) in an expert center (grade B). Surgery for stage IV is possible and has a benefit in case of complete peritoneal resection (LoE3). Pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomies are recommended in case of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes (grade B). In absence of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes and in case of complete peritoneal resection during initial debulking surgery, lymphadenectomy can be omitted because it won't change nor medical treatment nor overall survival (grade B). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can be proposed in case of: impossibility to perform initial complete surgical resection (grade B) ; alteration of general state or co-morbidities or elderly patient (in order to decrease morbidity and increase quality of life) (grade B); stage IV with multiple intra-hepatic or pulmonary metastasis or important ascites with miliary (grade B). In case of stage III or IV ovarian cancer diagnosed on a biopsy during prior laparotomy, a neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery should be preferred (gradeC). In case of palliative surgery or peroperative impossibility to perform a complete resection, no data regarding the type of surgery to perform influencing survival or quality of life is available. Peritoneal carcinosis description before resection and residual disease at the end of the surgery should be reported (size, location and reason of non-extirpability) (grade B). A score of peritoneal carcinosis such as Peritoneal Carcinosis Index (PCI) should be used in order to objectively evaluate the tumoral burden (gradeC). A standardized operative report is recommended (gradeC).

Impact of residual disease on overall survival in women with Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IIIB-IIIC vs stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer after primary surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The objective of this study was to determine the impact of intra-abdominal residual disease size, type (carcinomatosis, tumor mass or both), and location (upper/lower abdominal/both) on overall survival in women with Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IIIB-IIIC vs stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent primary debulking surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Altogether 2092 women diagnosed with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer undergoing primary debulking surgery in Denmark during 2005-2016 were identified in the Danish Gynecological Cancer Database. The impact of residual disease size, type, and location were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS Complete cytoreduction (residual disease = 0) was achieved in 47.3% and 38.4% of women with stage IIIB-IIIC and IV epithelial ovarian cancer, respectively. A benefit in overall survival was observed in women with residual disease = 0 compared with women with residual disease, and among women with residual disease ≤1 cm compared with residual disease >2 cm in both stages IIIB-IIIC and stage IV in multivariate analyses. Multivariate analyses showed an inferior overall survival for women with both residual carcinomatosis and residual tumor mass compared with those with residual tumor mass or residual carcinomatosis only for stage IIIB-IIIC and IV, and an inferior overall survival for women with residual disease located in both the upper and lower abdomen compared with residual disease in the upper abdomen only in stages IIIB-IIIC. CONCLUSIONS Our results confirm the positive prognostic impact of both complete cytoreduction and residual disease ≤1 cm in stages IIIB-IIIC as well as stage IV epithelial ovarian cancer. Women with stage IV do benefit from cytoreductive surgery and should be considered for primary debulking surgery, if residual disease = 0 can initially be expected.

Preoperative Predictive Factors for Complete Cytoreduction and Survival Outcome in Epithelial Ovarian, Tubal, and Peritoneal Cancer After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2018; 27:420-429.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aims to identify preoperative predictors of complete cytoreduction and early recurrence and death in epithelial ovarian, tubal, and peritoneal cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 85 patients who underwent 3 cycles of NACT. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to residual tumor at interval debulking surgery (IDS), and clinicopathologic, surgical, and follow-up data were compared. RESULTS Cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels before the IDS after completion of NACT were higher in the residual tumor group (42.0 vs 116.6 U/mL, P = 0.006). The drop rate of CA-125 after NACT was higher in the no residual tumor group (96.8% vs 89.9%, P = 0.001). Patients with residual tumor showed lower disease-free and overall survival outcomes than patients with no residual tumor. In univariate analysis, CA-125 of 100 U/mL or less before IDS and a drop rate after NACT greater than 80% were preoperative predictive factors for complete cytoreduction. In multivariate analysis, a drop rate of CA-125 after NACT greater than 80% was an independent preoperative predictive factor for complete cytoreduction (P = 0.002). Progressive disease on follow-up image during NACT was an independent preoperative predictive factor for early recurrence and death (P < 0.001, both). CONCLUSIONS A significant drop of CA-125 after NACT and progressive disease on follow-up image are independent preoperative predictors for complete cytoreduction and early recurrence and death.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM This study aimed to compare neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS) with primary debulking surgery (PDS) followed by chemotherapy in patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stages IIIc and IV. METHODS PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and manual searches were applied to discriminate potentially eligible studies published before June 30, 2016. RESULTS A total of 12 comparative studies were finally included; 1,372 patients underwent NAC followed by IDS, and 2,680 patients underwent PDS followed by chemotherapy. For overall pooled estimates, significant between-trial differences were found in the optimal debulking rate, grade 3-5 postoperative adverse reactions, and median overall survival (OS), but no difference was found in the median progression-free survival (PFS). Moreover, a significantly higher incidence was identified in major infections, vascular events, and wound complications for patients in the PDS group. CONCLUSIONS This study suggested that NAC followed by IDS could improve the optimal debulking rate and decrease the postoperative adverse reactions for the current studies, but whether it could improve the OS and PFS compared with PDS followed by chemotherapy in patients with ovarian carcinoma FIGO stages IIIc and IV were still needed to be verified by conducting more randomized controlled trials.

Abstract
AIM This study investigates changes in therapy and long-term survival for patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in the Netherlands. METHODS All patients with EOC, including peritoneal and fallopian tube carcinoma, diagnosed in the Netherlands between 1989 and 2014 were selected from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. Changes in therapy were studied and related to overall survival (OS) using multivariable Cox regression models. RESULTS A total of 32,540 patients were diagnosed with EOC of whom 22,047 (68%) had advanced stage disease. In early stage, lymph node dissection as part of surgical staging procedures increased over time from 4% in 1989-1993 to 62% in 2009-2014 (P < 0.001). In advanced stage, the number of patients receiving optimal treatment with surgery and chemotherapy increased from 55% in 1989-1993 to 67% in 2009-2014 (P < 0.001). Five-year survival rates improved in both early stage (74% versus 79%) and advanced stage (16% versus 24%) as well as in all patients combined (31% versus 34%). Ten-year survival rates, however, slightly improved in early stage (62% versus 67%) and advanced stage (10% versus 13%) but remained essentially unchanged at 24% for all patients combined. CONCLUSION Despite intensified treatment and staging procedures, long-term survival for women with EOC has not improved in the last 25 years. The observed improvements in 5-year OS reflect a more prolonged disease control rather than better chances for cure. Furthermore, the apparent better long-term outcome, when early and advanced stage patients are analysed separately, is largely due to improved staging procedures and the ensuing stage migration. These effects disappear in a combined analysis of all patients.

Abstract
Objective To assess whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is superior to primary debulking surgery (PDS) with regard to optimal cytoreduction, peri-operative morbidity, mortality, and quality of life (QOL) in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Methods We searched the PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, Registers of Clinical Trials for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing NACT to PDS in women with Federation of International Gynaecologists and Obstetricians stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ EOC. RevMan 5.3 software was utilized for statistical analysis. Results Four RCTs involving 1,607 women with advanced EOC were included. Compared with PDS, NACT provided a higher rate of complete cytoreduction (risk ratio [RR], 1.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.33 to 2.87), optimal cytoreduction (RR: 1.61 [95%CI: 1.05 to 2.47]), but there was no significant difference in residual disease 0–1 cm (p = 0.49). NACT was associated with lower peri-operative morbidity with respect to infection (RR: 0.30 [95% CI: 0.16 to 0.56]), gastrointestinal fistula (RR: 0.24 [95% CI: 0.06 to 0.95]), any grade 3 or 4 adverse event (RR: 0.29 [95% CI: 0.11 to 0.78]), and less post-surgical death within 28 days (RR: 0.14 [95% CI: 0.04 to 0.49]). NACT provided better QOL in terms of fatigue (weight mean difference [WMD], -3.28; [95% CI: -3.99 to -2.57]), role functioning (WMD: 5.29 [95% CI: 4.44 to 6.14]), emotional functioning (WMD: 6.19 [95% CI: 5.57 to 6.82]), and cognitive functioning (WMD: 1.02 [95% CI: 0.43 to 1.61]) at 6-month follow-up compared with PDS. Conclusions NACT is associated with superior optimal cytoreduction, lower peri-operative morbidity as well as post-surgical mortality, and better QOL compared to initial surgery in patients with advanced EOC. Future research should focus on improving the efficacy of NACT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare surgical results and survival outcome of advanced ovarian cancer patients who were treated with primary versus interval debulking surgery. STUDY DESIGN In this retrospective study stage III and IV ovarian cancer patients who received debulking surgery from 2006 to 2015 were included. Surgical results were described as complete, optimal or suboptimal debulking and chi-square test was used to assess significant differences. Overall survival was measured using Kaplan-Meier curves, the log-rank test and uni- and multivariable Cox regression analyses. RESULTS Of 146 patients included in the study, 55 patients were treated with primary debulking surgery (PDS) followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and 91 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS). Complete or optimal debulking (0-10mm of residual disease) was achieved in 76.4% (n=42) of the PDS group and in 79.1% (n=72) of the IDS group. Overall median survival was 38 months for PDS and 31 months for IDS, which was not significantly different (p=0.181). In the IDS group, a significant difference was found in OS between complete and optimal resection (p=0.013). Besides that, no difference in survival outcome was found in the IDS group between patients with optimal or suboptimal debulking (median survival were 20 and 19 months respectively). CONCLUSION Complete debulking surgery is of utmost importance, both in case of PDS and IDS. Achieving optimal interval debulking of 1-10mm residual disease did not show any survival benefit over suboptimal interval debulking.

PLoS One 2017; 12:e0183662. [PMID: 28915246 PMCID: PMC5600395 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0183662] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2017] [Accepted: 08/08/2017] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Tumor Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-α) has been shown to be released by tumor cells in response to docetaxel, and lipopolysaccharides (LPS), the latter through activation of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). However, it is unclear whether the former involves TLR4 receptor activation through direct binding of the drug to TLR4 at the cell surface. The current study was intended to better understand drug-induced TNF-α production in tumor cells, whether from short-term drug exposure or in cells selected for drug resistance. ELISAs were employed to measure cytokine release from breast and ovarian tumor cells in response to several structurally distinct chemotherapy agents and/or TLR4 agonists or antagonists. Drug uptake and drug sensitivity studies were also performed. We observed that several drugs induced TNF-αrelease from multiple tumor cell lines. Docetaxel-induced cytokine production was distinct from that of LPS in both MyD88-positive (MCF-7) and MyD88-deficient (A2780) cells. The acquisition of docetaxel resistance was accompanied by increased constitutive production of TNF-αand CXCL1, which waned at higher levels of resistance. In docetaxel-resistant MCF-7 and A2780 cell lines, the production of TNF-α could not be significantly augmented by docetaxel without the inhibition of P-gp, a transporter protein that promotes drug efflux from tumor cells. Pretreatment of tumor cells with LPS sensitized MyD88-positive cells (but not MyD88-deficient) to docetaxel cytotoxicity in both drug-naive and drug-resistant cells. Our findings suggest that taxane-induced inflammatory cytokine production from tumor cells depends on the duration of exposure, requires cellular drug-accumulation, and is distinct from the LPS response seen in breast tumor cells. Also, stimulation of the LPS-induced pathway may be an attractive target for treatment of drug-resistant disease.

Abstract
NACT use among SGO members for ovarian cancer is explored given recent trials. Fewer SGO members feel they can't predict optimal cytoreduction pre-operatively. Laparoscopy use has increased both for diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer. Very high optimal cytoreduction rates are reported from SGO members. Despite recent studies, SGO members don't regularly treat patients with NACT/ID.

Poor performance status (PS) is an indication for an aggressive approach to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Gynecol Oncol 2015; 139:216-20. [PMID: 26318078 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2015.08.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2015] [Revised: 08/16/2015] [Accepted: 08/22/2015] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Some guidelines suggest that poor performance status (PS) is a contraindication to 1st line chemotherapy. Poor PS is a known adverse prognostic factor in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We show in this retrospective analysis that 1st line chemotherapy in this patient group is not only safe but is associated with good outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review of 114 patients with stage III/IV EOC, who presented with a PS ≥3 at diagnosis and treated as inpatients with upfront platinum-based chemotherapy between 2000 and 2013, at the Royal Marsden Hospital, was conducted. The association between clinical parameters and the likelihood of completion of chemotherapy and overall survival (OS) was assessed. RESULTS 66% of patients completed ≥6cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy. Prognostic factors for completion of chemotherapy were improvement of PS during hospital stay (p<0.001) and doublet-chemotherapy with carboplatin/paclitaxel compared to single-agent carboplatin (p=0.004). A negative trend for completion of treatment was seen for patients with low albumin (<25g/l) and low CA125 levels at baseline. The median OS for all patients was 13.1months (95% CI: 10.4-15.8) and 21.2months (95% CI: 16.5-25.8) for those who completed 6cycles of chemotherapy. CONCLUSION Upfront platinum-based chemotherapy is feasible, beneficial and tolerable for the majority of patients with advanced EOC and poor PS. Guidelines suggesting that best supportive care is the preferred option for poor PS patients with solid tumours should be revised to exclude those with advanced EOC. An aggressive approach utilising neoadjuvant carboplatin plus paclitaxel should be regarded as standard of care.
