Abstract
Preclinical evidence indicates potent antitumor properties of local anesthetics. Numerous underlying mechanisms explaining such anticancer effects have been identified, suggesting direct cytotoxic as well as indirect immunemediated effects that together reduce the proliferative, invasive and migratory potential of malignant cells. Although some retrospective and correlative studies support these findings, prospective randomized controlled trials have not yet fully confirmed the antineoplastic activity of local anesthetics, likely due to the intricate methodology required for mitigating confounding factors. This trial watch aims at compiling all published preclinical and clinical research, along with completed and ongoing trials, that explore the potential antitumor effects of local anesthetics.

[PMID: 37842575 PMCID: PMC10570603 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e20611] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The impact of regional anesthesia and analgesia (RAA) on long-term survival following cancer surgery is a topic of debate. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of perioperative RAA on long-term oncological outcomes in patients undergoing major abdominal cancer surgery. Methods The authors searched computerized databases and reference lists from inception to December 20, 2022. All studies that investigated the effects of perioperative RAA on long-term oncological outcomes following major abdominal cancer surgery were included. Using the inverse variance method with a random-effects model, hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Results The systematic review included 51 retrospective studies, one prospective study, and three randomized controlled trials (RCTs), with a total of 95,046 patients. The results showed that perioperative RAA may improve long-term overall survival (HR: 0.85, 95% CI: 0.80 to 0.91, P = 0.00, I2 = 60.2%). However, there was no significant association between perioperative RAA and reduced cancer recurrence (HR: 0.98, 95% CI: 0.90 to 1.03, P = 0.31, I2 = 52.3%). When performing a pooled analysis of the data from the three RCTs, no statistically significant effect of RAA was found in either case. Conclusion The systematic review suggests perioperative RAA may improve long-term overall survival but does not appear to reduce cancer recurrence in patients undergoing major abdominal cancer surgery. The limited number of RCTs included in this study did not confirm this finding, highlighting the need for further RCTs to corroborate these results.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate, in patients with gastric carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, the effects of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block (UG-QLB) combined with general anaesthesia (GA) on the postoperative recovery compared with GA alone. PATIENTS AND METHODS The retrospective study enrolled 231 patients with gastric carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, including 119 patients who received UG-QLB combined with GA (Group QG), and 112 patients undergoing GA alone (Group GA). The primary endpoint was the postoperative 3-year recurrence-free survival (RFS). The secondary endpoints were the average visual analogue scale (VAS) scores within 48 h after surgery, the first time of postoperative ambulation, the first time of flatus, postoperative hospitalization, perioperative opioid requirement and adverse effects after surgery. RESULTS UG-QLB combined with GA did not affect the 3-year RFS in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy (HR 0.659, 95% CI 0.342-1.269, P=0.212). However, the VAS ranking analysis implicated that it could significantly alleviate the postoperative pain in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy patients (P<0.01). In addition, it dramatically facilitated the early recovery of postoperative ambulation and flatus, while shortening the duration of postoperative hospitalization (P<0.01). The most important was it could remarkably reduce the opioid consumption (P<0.01), which in the meanwhile, reduced the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) (P=0.01). CONCLUSION Although UG-QLB combined with GA did not improve the 3-year RFS for patients with gastric carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, it could provide satisfactory postoperative pain relief, reduce opioid consumption and adverse effects, which subsequently facilitates postoperative early rehabilitation.

Abstract
Epidural analgesia could influence the postoperative oncologic outcomes in patients with specific types of non-metastatic solid neoplasms. The present study aimed to investigate the impact of anesthetic technique on survival in elderly patients with ovarian cancer (OC). The records of all women with OC older than 60 years of age undergoing tumor debulking surgery at the University Medical Center of the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Mainz, Germany) between January 2008 and December 2019 were obtained. The study cohort was divided into two groups based on the use of perioperative epidural anesthesia or not. First, Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to analyze the prognostic influence of anesthetic technique on survival. Second, multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was adjusted for multiple conventional prognostic factors concerning three main categories: i) Current clinical-pathological tumor characteristics; ii) anesthesiologic parameters, including mean age, American Society of Anesthesiologists Performance Status and preexisting comorbidities summarized in the Charlson Comorbidity Index; and iii) oncological and surgical parameters such as oncological radicality and Surgical complexity Score. A total of 110 patients were included in the study and 71 (64.5%) of them received epidural analgesia. The median survival time was 26.0 months from primary debulking surgery and no significant differences in progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were noted between the 'Epidural' and 'non-Epidural' cohorts. After adjustment for the selected risk factors from the three categories, the effects of epidural analgesia on PFS and OS remained non-significant [PFS: hazard ratio (HR), 1.26; 95% CI, 0.66-2.39; and OS: HR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.45-1.40]. The present results did not support the independent association between epidural-supplemented anesthesia and improved PFS or OS in elderly patients with standardized ovarian cancer debulking surgery.

Abstract
Radical gastrectomy is a mainstay therapy for patients with locally resectable gastric cancer (GC). GC patients who are candidates for radical gastrectomy will experience at least part of the following perioperative events: surgery, anesthesia, pain, intraoperative blood loss, allogeneic blood transfusion, postoperative complications, and their related anxiety, depression and stress response. Considerable clinical studies have shown that these perioperative events can promote recurrence and decrease the long-term survival of GC patients. The mechanisms include activation of neural signaling and the inflammatory response, suppression of antimetastatic immunity, increased release of cancer cells into circulation, and delayed adjuvant therapy, which are involved in every step of the invasion-metastasis cascade. Having appreciated these perioperative events and their influence on the risk of GC recurrence, we can now use this knowledge to find strategies that might substantially prevent the deleterious recurrence-promoting effects of perioperative events, potentially increasing cancer-free survival in GC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of epidural anaesthesia and analgesia (EA) on cancer recurrence and overall survival after surgery for gastric cancer. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING A retrospective study which involved patients with stage I-III gastric cancer undergoing curative resection in a medical centre from January 2012 to December 2017 and followed up until December 2019 through electronic medical chart review. Patient demographics, anaesthetic and surgical characteristics and pathologic features were also gathered. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES The effects of EA on postoperative cancer recurrence and overall survival were evaluated using proportional hazards regression models with inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW). Multivariable Cox regression analyses were conducted for sensitivity analysis as well. RESULTS Among the 413 patients with median follow-up of 38.5 months (IQR: 22.1-59.7), 66 (16.0%) received EA after gastric cancer surgery. EA was not associated with greater cancer recurrence (IPTW-adjusted HR: 0.55, 95% CI: 0.27 to 1.13, p=0.102) or cancer specific (IPTW- adjusted HR: 0.53, 95% CI: 0.27 to 1.04, p=0.07) and all-cause mortality (IPTW-adjusted HR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.37 to 1.16, p=0.143) after gastric cancer resections. For sensitivity analysis, multivariable Cox regression analysis also generated non-significant EA effects on cancer recurrence and survival after surgery. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant association between EA and cancer recurrence or overall survival in patients with stage I-III gastric cancer receiving surgical resection of primary tumour. Prospective study should be considered to elucidate the relationship between EA and cancer outcomes after gastric cancer surgery.

Abstract
Surgery remains the most effective cancer treatment, but residual disease in the form of scattered micro-metastases and tumor cells is usually unavoidable. Whether minimal residual disease results in clinical metastases is a function of host defense and tumor survival and growth. The much interesting intersection of anesthesiology and immunology has drawn increasing clinical interest, particularly, the existing concern of the possibility that the perioperative and intraoperative anesthetic care of the surgical oncology patient could meaningfully influence tumor recurrence. This paper examines current data, including recent large clinical trials to determine whether the current level of evidence warrants a change in practice. Available pieces of evidence from clinical studies are particularly limited, largely retrospective, smaller sample size, and often contradictory, causing several questions and providing few answers. Recent randomized controlled clinical trials, including the largest study (NCT00418457), report no difference in cancer recurrence between regional and general anesthesia after potentially curative surgery. Until further evidence strongly implicates anesthesia in future clinical trials, clinicians may continue to choose the optimum anesthetic-analgesic agents and techniques in consultation with their cancer patients, based on their expertise and current best practice.

Abstract
Surgical resection is the main curative avenue for various cancers. Unfortunately, cancer recurrence following surgery is commonly seen, and typically results in refractory disease and death. Currently, there is no consensus whether perioperative epidural analgesia (EA), including intraoperative and postoperative epidural analgesia, is beneficial or harmful on cancer recurrence and survival. Although controversial, mounting evidence from both clinical and animal studies have reported perioperative EA can improve cancer recurrence and survival via many aspects, including modulating the immune/inflammation response and reducing the use of anesthetic agents like inhalation anesthetics and opioids, which are independent risk factors for cancer recurrence. However, these results depend on the cancer types, cancer staging, patients age, opioids use, and the duration of follow-up. This review will summarize the effects of perioperative EA on the oncological outcomes of patients after cancer surgery.

Abstract
Background: In patients with prostatic and breast cancer the application of peridural anesthesia (PDA) showed a beneficial effect on prognosis. This was explained by reduced requirements for general anesthetics and perioperative opioids as well as a lower perioperative stress level. The impact of PDA in patients with more aggressive types of cancer has not been completely elucidated. Here, we analyzed the prognostic influence of PDA on overall survival after surgery as primary in patients that underwent radical resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Methods: Records of 98 consecutive patients were reviewed. In 70 of these cases PDA was applied. Patient characteristics such as demographics, TNM stage, and operative data were retrospectively collected from medical records and analyzed. Survival data were analyzed by Cox’s proportional hazard regression model. Results: Overall, no significant prognostic influence of PDA on recurrence or overall survival (p = 0.762, Hazard Ratio [HR] 0.884, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.398–1.961) was found. However, there was a trend towards a longer overall survival (p = 0.069, HR 0.394, 95% CI 0.144–1.078) associated with PDA in a subgroup of patients with better differentiation of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Conclusion: The observation of longer survival associated with PDA in our subgroup of patients with better-differentiated pancreatic carcinomas is in line with previous reports on various other less aggressive tumor entities. Our results indicate that PDA might improve the oncological outcome of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-microRNA (miRNA)-mRNA regulatory network in gastric cancer (GC) using bioinformatics analysis. Two mRNA gene expression profiles, GSE79973 and GSE54129, and two miRNA expression profiles, GSE93415 and GSE78091, were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially expressed mRNAs (DEMs) and the differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMis) were merged separately. Gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis were conducted using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was then constructed and the 10 top hub genes in the network were analyzed using the Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes. The lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA networks were visualized using Cytoscape software. As a result, 158 shared DEMs (40 upregulated and 118 downregulated) were identified from two mRNA datasets. A total of 30 upregulated miRNAs and 1 downregulated miRNA functioned as DEMis. The PPI network consisted of 129 nodes and 572 interactions. The 10 top hub genes were selected by degree using Cytohubba, including Jun proto-oncogene, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)3, transforming growth factor-β1, Fos proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit, interleukin (IL)-8, MAPK1, RELA proto-oncogene nuclear factor-κB subunit, interferon regulatory factor 7, ubiquitin like modifier and vascular endothelial growth factor A. In the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network, a total of 1,215 regulatory associations were constructed using Cytoscape. In conclusion, the present study provides a novel perspective of the molecular mechanisms underlying GC by identifying the lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network via bioinformatics analysis.

Abstract
New cancer incidences worldwide will eclipse 18 million in 2019, with nearly 10 million cancer-related deaths. It is estimated that in the United States, almost 40% of individuals will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Surgical resection of primary tumors remains a cornerstone of cancer treatment; however, the surgical process can trigger an immune-suppressing sympathetic response, which promotes tumor growth of any residual cancerous cells post surgery. Regional and local anesthesia have become staples of anesthesia and analgesia during and after surgery. Recently, much evidence in the form of retrospective and prospective studies has come to light regarding the protective, antitumor properties of anesthetic and analgesic agents across a wide variety of cancers and patient demographics. It is believed that by blocking afferent pain signals, the body does not mount the sympathetic response that contributes to the perpetuation of disease after surgical treatment. This review, therefore, investigates these studies as they pertain to the treatment and outcomes of cancers treated surgically to elucidate the role of regional anesthesia in the propagation of cancer.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of postoperative analgesia with dezocine combined with ropivacaine and fentanyl combined with ropivacaine on stress response and immune function in patients with gastric cancer.
METHODS Eighty-eight patients with gastric cancer who underwent surgery from November 2016 to October 2017 at Tongji Hospital were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 44 cases in each group. The patients in the observation group were given dexrazoxane 30 mg + 0.75% ropivacaine 20 mL + 100 mL 0.9% sodium chloride injection for analgesia; the control group was given fentanyl 8 μg + 0.75% ropivacaine 20 mL + 100 mL 0.9% sodium chloride injection. The analgesic effects at 4, 12, 24, and 48 h after operation were compared between the two groups. Serum levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-2, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB-1), plasma levels of endothelin (ET) and AngⅡ, and the levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T cells, and natural killer cells (NK) in immune cells were compared in the two groups before and after surgery. Adverse reactions within 48 h after surgery such as dizziness, nausea, and respiratory depression were recorded.
RESULTS Visual acuity scores in the observation group at 4, 12, 24, and 48 h after operation were significantly lower than those in the control group (t = 4.636, 4.399, 7.084, 11.022, P < 0.05). Serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, MCP-1, and HMGB-1 in the observation group at 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the levels of IL-2 in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (t24 h = 14.544, 18.041, 17.154, 14.143, 15.797, t48 h = 17.016, 18.838, 9.389, 17.821, 19.497, P < 0.05). Plasma levels of ET and Ang Ⅱ in the observation group at 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly lower than those in the control group (t24 h = 3.900, 2.784, t48 h = 2.816, 2.122, P < 0.05). The levels of CD3+, CD4+ T cells, and NK cells in immune cells in the observation group at 24 h after operation were significantly higher than those in the control group (t = 5.767, 2.716, 2.978, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in CD8+ T cells between the two groups before and after operation (t = 0.316, P > 0.05). Within 48 h after operation, the incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (11.36% vs 29.55%, χ2 = 4.469, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION Postoperative analgesia with dezocine plus ropivacaine is effective in patients with gastric cancer, which can reduce stress response and inflammatory cytokines and improve immune function.

Abstract
Background This study assessed the prognostic value of GLI1 in gastric cancer and analyzed the possible GLI1-related signaling network in chemosensitivity. Material/Methods Bioinformatic data mining was performed by using data in the TCGA-Stomach Cancer (TCGA-STAD) and the Kaplan-Meier plotter. GLI1 co-expressed genes in TCGA-STAD were subjected to KEGG pathway analysis. The genes enriched in the KEGG pathways were further subjected to Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) analysis. Results In TCGA-STAD, high GLI1 gene/exon expression was associated with significantly worse survival (p=0.016 and 0.0023 respectively). In the Kaplan-Meier plotter, high GLI1 expression was associated with unfavorable overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.68, 95%CI: 1.42–2, p<0.0001) and first progression-free survival (FPS) (HR: 1.72, 95%CI: 1.4–2.11, p<0.0001). In TCGA-STAD, 600 GLI1 co-expressed genes were identified (absolute Pearson’s r ≥0.5). The most significant pathways were pathways in cancer (p=230.0E-12) and the Hedgehog signaling pathway (p=6.9E-9). PI3K-AKT pathway (p=17.0E-9) has the largest proportion of gene enrichment. Some GLI1 co-expressed genes in the PI3K-AKT pathway are central nodes in the PPI network and also play important roles in chemosensitivity of gastric cancer. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying their co-expression are still largely unexplored. Conclusions High GLI1 expression is associated with unfavorable OS and FPS in patients with gastric cancer. As a member of the Hedgehog signaling pathway, GLI1 co-expressed genes are also largely enriched in PI3K/AKT pathway in gastric cancer, which is closely related to chemoresistance. The underlying mechanisms are still largely unexplored and need further study.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is a kind of non-coding RNA with transcripts more than 200 bp in length. LncRNA can interact with the miRNA as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to regulate the expression of target genes, which play a significant role in the initiation and progression of tumors. In this study, we explored the functional roles and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNAs as ceRNAs in gastric cancer, and their potential implications for prognosis. The lncRNAs, miRNAs, and mRNAs expression profiles of 375 gastric cancer tissues and 32 non-tumor gastric tissues were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Differential expression of RNAs was identified using the DESeq package. Survival analysis was estimated based on Kaplan-Meier curve analysis. KEGG pathway analysis was performed using KOBAS 3.0. The dysregulated lncRNA-associated ceRNA network was constructed in gastric cancer based on bioinformatics generated from miRcode and miRTarBase. A total of 237 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 198 miRNAs between gastric cancer and matched normal tissues were screened in our study with thresholds of |log2FC| >2 and adjusted P value <0.01. Eleven discriminatively expressed lncRNAs may be correlated with tumorigenesis of gastric cancer. Seven out of 11 dysregulated lncRNA were found to be significantly associated with overall survival in gastric cancer (P value <0.05). The newly identified ceRNA network includes 11 gastric cancer-specific lncRNAs, 9 miRNAs, and 41 mRNAs. Collectively, our study will contribute to improving the understanding of the lncRNA-associated ceRNA network regulatory mechanisms in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer and provide and identify novel lncRNAs as candidate prognostic biomarkers or potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
The present study aimed to explore the effects of different anesthetic methods on cellular immune function and prognosis of patients with ovarian cancer (OC) undergoing oophorectomy. A total of 167 patients who received general anesthesia (GA) treatment (GA group) and 154 patients who received combined general/epidural anesthesia (GEA) treatment (GEA group) were collected retrospectively. Each group selected 124 patients that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria for further study. ELISA and radioimmunoassay were employed to detect levels of IL-2, TNF-α, and CA-125. The rates of tumor-red cell rosette (RTRR), red cell immune complex rosette (RRICR), and red cell C3b receptor rosette (RRCR) were also measured. Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and heart rate (HR) were determined by hemodynamics. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-2 decreased at 1 h intraoperation (T2), but increased 24-h post surgery (T3). The levels of TNF-α and IL-2 were recovered faster in the GEA group than in the GA group. The GA group exhibited greater levels of CA-125 expression than in the GEA group. The levels of RTRR, RRICR, and RRCR; ratios of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, CD16+, and CD56+ at 30 min after anesthesia (T1), T2, T3 and 48 h after the operation (T4) and levels of SBP, DBP, and HR at T1, T2, and T3 displayed increased levels in the GEA group than in the GA group. At 72-h post surgery (T5), the 5-year survival rate significantly increased in the GEA group compared with the GA group. GEA to be more suitable than GA for surgery on OC patients.

Abstract
Background Whether regional analgesia techniques have favorable impact on prognosis after cancer surgery is unclear, and existing reports show controversial results. The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare recurrence and mortality between patients that received either intravenous (IV) or epidural patient controlled analgesia (PCA) for pain control after curative surgery for gastric cancer. Materials and methods Medical records of patients that underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer between November 2005 and December 2010 were reviewed. Identified patients were categorized according to the use of IV or epidural PCA for postoperative analgesia. Demographic and perioperative variables including type of PCA were analyzed by univariate and multiple regression analysis to investigate any association with recurrence and mortality after surgery. Propensity score matching was done to adjust for selection bias. Results Of the 3,799 patients included in this analysis, 374 and 3, 425 patients received IV and epidural PCAs, respectively. No difference in recurrence (HR, 1.092; 95% CI 0.859 to 1.388; P = 0.471) or mortality (HR, 0.695; 95% CI 0.429 to 1.125; P = 0.138) was identified between the use of IV and epidural PCA. Propensity score matching also showed no difference in recurrence (HR, 1.098; 95% CI 0.756 to 1.596; P = 0.623) or mortality (HR, 0.855; 95% CI 0.391 to 1.869; P = 0.695) between the two groups. Conclusions Postoperative use of epidural analgesia was not found to be associated with reduced recurrence or mortality after curative surgery in gastric cancer patients. This finding needs to be confirmed with prospective studies in the future.

Abstract
Background Epidural use can provide a better short-term outcome and protect patients from the postoperative development of tumour recurrence and metastases. In this study, we sought to assess the effects of intra- and postoperative anaesthesia and analgesia choice on outcome after gastric cancer resection, searched for evidence of interaction between intra-and postoperative epidural use and outcomes of gastric cancer patients. Methods Four thousand two hundred and eighteen cases of gastric cancer were identified from the Records of Hospital Patients. Patients who received only general anesthesia (GA group) or epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia (EGA group), were administered patient-controlled intravenous or epidural analgesia for 72-120 hours postoperatively. Flatus time, length of stay in hospital, incidence of nausea and vomiting, and visual analogue scale (VAS ) scores were collected for evaluating the short-outcome of the patients. A Kaplan-Meier log-rank test was used for a univariable analysis, and Cox proportional hazards regressions were used for a multivariable analysis of the survival time in both groups. Results The VAS scores and incidence of nausea and vomiting in the EGA group were lower than the GA group. There was a significant association between intra-and postoperative epidural use and improved survival. Conclusions These results indicated that epidural anaesthesia combined with general anaesthesia and patient-controlled epidural analgesia may be associated with the improved overall survival in gastric cancer patients who underwent resection.
