Abstract
PURPOSE The significant global burden of endometrial cancer (EC) and the challenges associated with predicting EC recurrence indicate the need for a dynamic prediction model. This study aimed to propose nomograms based on clinicopathological variables to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) after surgical resection for EC. METHODS This single-institution retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent surgical resection for EC. Web-based nomograms were developed to predict RFS and OS following resection for EC, and their discriminative and calibration abilities were assessed. RESULTS This study included 289 patients (median age, 56 years). At a median follow-up of 51.1 (range, 4.1-128.3) months, 13.5% (39/289) of patients showed relapse or died, and 10.7% (31/289) had non-endometrioid tumors (median size: 2.8 cm). Positive peritoneal cytology result (hazard ratio [HR], 35.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.12-1095.64; P = 0.0428), age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (AACCI) (HR, 52.08; 95% CI, 12.35-219.61; P < 0.001), and FIGO (Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage IV (HR, 138.33; 95% CI, 17.38-1101.05; P < 0.001) were predictors of RFS. Similarly, depth of myometrial invasion ≥ 1/2 (HR, 1; 95% CI, 0.46-2.19; P = 0.995), AACCI (HR, 93.63; 95% CI, 14.87-589.44; P < 0.001), and FIGO stage IV (HR, 608.26; 95% CI, 73.41-5039.66; P < 0.001) were predictors of OS. The nomograms showed good predictive capability, positive discriminative ability, and calibration (RFS: 0.895 and OS: 0.891). CONCLUSION The nomograms performed well in internal validation when patients were stratified into prognostic groups, offering a personalized approach for risk stratification and treatment decision-making.

Treatment outcomes of early-stage endometrial cancer patients: A propensity score matching of vaginal brachytherapy versus pelvic radiotherapy. J Obstet Gynaecol Res 2023; 49:2918-2928. [PMID: 37786395 DOI: 10.1111/jog.15800] [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: 04/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to report the treatment outcomes of radiation therapy for early-stage endometrial cancer patients. In addition, this study intended to identify high-risk factors that require pelvic radiotherapy (PRT) in addition to vaginal brachytherapy (VBT) for intermediate-risk endometrial cancer patients. METHODS Patients with early-stage endometrial cancer receiving postoperative VBT alone or with PRT were included. Propensity score matching was used to balance the two study groups. The primary endpoint was locoregional recurrence (LRR). Age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index and substantial lymphovascular space invasion were selected for subgroup analyses to identify the benefits of PRT over VBT alone. RESULTS From 2005 to 2017, a total of 288 patients underwent analysis following propensity score matching. Of these, 144 received VBT and 144 received PRT. There was no significant difference in 5-year LRR between VBT and PRT for both intermediate (0% vs. 0%) and high-intermediate risk patients (3.5% VBT vs. 5.4% PRT; HR 0.54: 0.05-6.00; p = 0.616). The subgroup analyses revealed no significant factors favoring PRT over VBT. Patients with high comorbidities may have higher risks of non-cancer death after receiving PRT. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative VBT alone is sufficient for early-stage intermediate-risk endometrial cancer patients.

Does Prophylactic Paraortic Lymph Node Irradiation Improve Outcomes in Women With Stage IIIC1 Endometrial Carcinoma? Pract Radiat Oncol 2022; 12:e123-e134. [PMID: 34822999 DOI: 10.1016/j.prro.2021.10.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Revised: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of prophylactic paraortic lymph node (PALN) radiation therapy (RT) on clinical outcomes in patients with International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2018 stage IIIC1 endometrial cancer (EC). METHODS AND MATERIALS A multi-institutional retrospective study included patients with International Federation of Obstetrics and Gynecology 2018 stage IIIC1 EC lymph node assessment, status postsurgical staging, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and RT using various sequencing regimens. Overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariable and multivariable analysis were performed by Cox proportional hazard models for RFS/OS. In addition, propensity score matching was used to estimate the effect of the radiation field extent on survival outcomes. RESULTS A total of 378 patients were included, with a median follow-up of 45.8 months. Pelvic RT was delivered to 286 patients, and 92 patients received pelvic and PALN RT. The estimated OS and RFS rates at 5 years for the entire cohort were 80% and 69%, respectively. There was no difference in the 5-year OS (77% vs 87%, P = .47) and RFS rates (67% vs 70%, P = .78) between patients treated with pelvic RT and those treated with pelvic and prophylactic PALN RT, respectively. After propensity score matching, the estimated hazard ratios (HRs) of prophylactic PALN RT versus pelvic RT were 1.50 (95% confidence interval, 0.71-3.19; P = .28) for OS and 1.24 (95% confidence interval, 0.64-2.42; P = .51) for RFS, suggesting that prophylactic PALN RT does not improve survival outcomes. Distant recurrence was the most common site of first recurrence, and the extent of RT field was not associated with the site of first recurrence (P = .79). CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic PALN RT was not significantly associated with improved survival outcomes in stage IIIC1 EC. Distant metastasis remains the most common site of failure despite routine use of systemic chemotherapy. New therapeutic approaches are necessary to optimize the outcomes for women with stage IIIC1 EC.

Comorbidity-adjusted NEWS predicts mortality in suspected patients with COVID-19 from nursing homes: Multicentre retrospective cohort study. J Adv Nurs 2021; 78:1618-1631. [PMID: 34519377 PMCID: PMC8657335 DOI: 10.1111/jan.15039] [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: 03/08/2021] [Revised: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Aims To assess the prognostic accuracy of comorbidity‐adjusted National Early Warning Score in suspected Coronavirus disease 2019 patients transferred from nursing homes by the Emergency Department. Design Multicentre retrospective cohort study. Methods Patients transferred by high‐priority ambulances from nursing homes to Emergency Departments with suspected severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection, from March 12 to July 31 2020, were considered. Included variables were: clinical covariates (respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, level of consciousness and supplemental oxygen use), the presence of comorbidities and confirmatory analytical diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. The primary outcome was a 2‐day mortality rate. The discriminatory capability of the National Early Warning Score was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve in two different cohorts, the validation and the revalidation, which were randomly selected from the main cohort. Results A total of 337 nursing homes, 10 advanced life support units, 51 basic life support units and 8 hospitals in Spain entailing 1,324 patients (median age 87 years) was involved in this study. Two‐day mortality was 11.5% (152 cases), with a positivity rate of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 of 51.2%, 77.7% of hospitalization from whom 1% was of intensive care unit admission. The National Early Warning Score results for the revalidation cohort presented an AUC of 0.771, and of 0.885, 0.778 and 0.730 for the low‐, medium‐ and high‐level groups of comorbidities. Conclusion The comorbidity‐adjusted National Early Warning Score provides a good short‐term prognostic criterion, information that can help in the decision‐making process to guide the best strategy for each older adult, under the current pandemic. Impact What problem did the study address?
Under the current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, targeting older adults at high risk of deterioration in nursing homes remains challenging.
What were the main findings?
Comorbidity‐adjusted National Early Warning Score helps to forecast the risk of clinical deterioration more accurately.
Where and on whom will the research have impact?
A high NEWS, with a low level of comorbidity is associated with optimal predictive performance, making these older adults likely to benefit from continued follow up and potentially hospital referral under the current coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.

Impact of different adjuvant treatment approaches on survival in stage III endometrial cancer: A population-based study. Eur J Cancer 2020; 133:104-111. [PMID: 32454416 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejca.2020.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2020] [Revised: 04/07/2020] [Accepted: 04/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage III endometrial cancer (EC) have a substantial risk of adverse outcomes. After surgery, adjuvant therapy is recommended with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), chemotherapy (CT) or both EBRT and CT. Recent trials suggest that EBRT + CT is superior to EBRT or CT alone but also results in more toxicity. We have compared the outcome of different adjuvant treatments in a population-based cohort to identify subgroups that benefit most from EBRT + CT. METHODS All patients diagnosed with FIGO stage III EC and treated with surgery in 2005-2016 were identified from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS); associations with adjuvant treatment were analysed using Cox regression analysis. RESULTS Among 1241 eligible patients, EBRT + CT was associated with a better OS than CT (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.84, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.34-2.52) and EBRT alone (HR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.05-1.79). In stage IIIC, there was a significant benefit of EBRT + CT compared with CT or EBRT alone. In stage IIIA-B, there was no difference between EBRT + CT or EBRT alone. In endometrioid EC (EEC) and carcinosarcomas, EBRT + CT was associated with a better OS than CT or EBRT alone. For uterine serous cancers, there was no survival benefit of EBRT + CT over CT. In all analysis by stage and histology, any adjuvant treatment was superior to no adjuvant therapy. CONCLUSIONS In this population-based study, adjuvant EBRT + CT was associated with improved OS compared with CT or EBRT alone in FIGO stage IIIC EC, EEC and carcinosarcoma. This suggests that application of EBRT + CT in stage III should be further stratified according to these subgroups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes and prognosis among women with type I endometrial cancer undergoing hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (H-BSO) with or without systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLD) or para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PALD). METHODS Retrospective review of women postoperatively diagnosed with type I endometrial cancer who underwent H-BSO at a university hospital in Chengdu, China (January 2010 to June 2012). Women were divided into no lymphadenectomy (PLD-/PALD-), systematic pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLD+/PALD-), or combined pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy (PLD+/PALD+) groups. Follow-up was by telephone. Postoperative outcomes and prognosis were compared and risk factors were analyzed. RESULTS In total, 333 women met the inclusion criteria: 121 underwent PLD+/PALD-, 166 underwent PLD+/PALD+, and 46 underwent PLD-/PALD-. There were no differences in pre-operative characteristics among the groups (all P>0.05). The PLD+/PALD+ group had a higher laparotomy rate (P=0.001), the PLD-/PALD- group had shorter operation time (P=0.001) and lower blood loss (P<0.001). There were no differences between the PLD+/PALD- and PLD+/PALD+ groups. Overall, 291 women had sufficient follow-up data; there was no difference in overall survival, and PALD was not a predictor of survival. CONCLUSION Postoperative outcomes were similar among all surgical groups; a survival benefit of PALD was not demonstrated.
