Long-term survival analysis based on tumor location in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreatectomy following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2025; 410:47. [PMID: 39838137 PMCID: PMC11750900 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-025-03609-8] [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: 11/03/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2025] [Indexed: 01/23/2025]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed at assessing whether long-term survival outcomes were different based on tumor location in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients who underwent pancreatectomy following neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT). METHODS Following CRT, resection rate was 60.5% (286/473) and the resected patients had pancreatic head (n = 218), body (n = 34) and tail (n = 34) tumors. Survival analyses were conducted, independent predictors of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were identified, and then survival outcomes were stratified by the predictors of DFS and OS. RESULTS Resection rates were; 64.7% (head) vs. 46.6% (body) and 54.0% (tail) cases, p = 0.009. Among these cases, pancreatic head patients exhibited a higher incidence of initial clinical stage 3 tumors; 48.2% (head) vs. 29.4% (body) and 0% (tail) cases, p < 0.001 with more unresctable-locally advanced tumors; 22.0% (head) vs. 11.8% (body) and 0% (tail), p < 0.001, but demonstrated a better response to CRT; Evans grades 3/4 in 49.1% (head) vs. 23.5% (body) and 26.5% (tail), p = 0.012. Five-year DFS rates were; 19.9% (head) vs. 11.8% (body) vs. 24.6% (tail), p = 0.565 and OS rates; 25.4% (head) vs. 27.7% (body) vs. 32.0% (tail), p = 0.341. Significant predictors of DFS and OS included post-CRT CA19-9 levels, tumor differentiation, resection margins and pathological portal vein invasion. Based on these predictors, survival outcomes were also comparable. Pathological nodal invasion influenced DFS, while pathological stage impacted OS. CONCLUSION Pancreatic head patients had the best resection rate and long-term survival outcomes were comparable, attributable to the better response to CRT by pancreatic head than the body and tail PDAC patients.

Preoperative level of serum transthyretin as a novel biomarker predicting survival in resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with neoadjuvant therapy. Pancreatology 2024; 24:917-924. [PMID: 39181757 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2024.07.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/27/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation and altered metabolism are essential hallmarks of cancer. We hypothesized that the rapid turnover protein transthyretin (TTR) (half-life: 2-3 days), compared with the conventional marker albumin (21 days), better reflects the inflammatory/metabolic dynamics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) after neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) and is a useful prognostic marker. METHODS Serum TTR and albumin levels were measured in 104 consecutive post-NAT PDAC patients before curative resection. The associations of preoperative TTR and albumin levels with overall survival (OS) after pancreatectomy were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The mean (SD) TTR and albumin levels were 21.6 (6.4) mg/dL (normal range: ≥22.0 mg/dL) and 3.9 (0.55) g/dL. A low (<22.0 mg/dL) post-NAT TTR level was associated with an advanced tumor stage and higher CEA and CRP levels. Patients with low TTR levels showed significantly worse OS compared with normal levels (3-year OS 39 % vs. 54 %, P = 0.037), although albumin levels did not. We modified prognostic biomarkers of systemic inflammation/metabolism, such as GPS, PNI, and CONUT scores, using the serum TTR instead of albumin level and successfully showed that modified scores were better associated with OS compared with original scores using serum albumin level. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that the TTR level is a promising prognostic biomarker for PDAC patients after NAT.

C-Reactive Protein-to-Albumin Ratio to Predict Tolerability of S-1 as an Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Pancreatic Cancer. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:922. [PMID: 38473284 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16050922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2024] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) with S-1 after radical surgery for resectable pancreatic cancer (PC) has shown a significant survival advantage over surgery alone. Consequently, ensuring that patients receive a consistent, uninterrupted S-1 regimen is of paramount importance. This study aimed to investigate whether the C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) could predict S-1 AC completion in PC patients without dropout due to adverse events (AEs). We retrospectively enrolled 95 patients who underwent radical pancreatectomy and S-1 AC for PC between January 2010 and December 2022. A statistical analysis was conducted to explore the correlation of predictive markers with S-1 completion, defined as continuous oral administration for 6 months. Among the 95 enrolled patients, 66 (69.5%) completed S-1, and 29 (30.5%) failed. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed 0.05 as the optimal CAR threshold to predict S-1 completion. Univariate and multivariate analyses further validated that a CAR ≥ 0.05 was independently correlated with S-1 completion (p < 0.001 and p = 0.006, respectively). Furthermore, a significant association was established between a higher CAR at initiation of oral administration and acceptable recurrence-free and overall survival (p = 0.003 and p < 0.001, respectively). CAR ≥ 0.05 serves as a predictive marker for difficulty in completing S-1 treatment as AC for PC due to AEs.

Prognostic significance of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, platelet in gastrointestinal stromal tumors: A propensity matched retrospective cohort study. World J Gastroenterol 2022; 28:3476-3487. [PMID: 36158264 PMCID: PMC9346454 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v28.i27.3476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2022] [Revised: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 06/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The combined index of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP) can reflect systemic inflammation and nutritional status simultaneously, with some evidence revealing its prognostic value for some tumors. However, the effect of HALP on recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has not been reported.
AIM To investigate the prognostic value of HALP in GIST patients.
METHODS Data from 591 untreated patients who underwent R0 resection for primary and localized GISTs at West China Hospital between December 2008 and December 2016 were included. Clinicopathological data, preoperative albumin, blood routine information, postoperative treatment, and recurrence status were recorded. To eliminate baseline inequivalence, the propensity scores matching (PSM) method was introduced. Ultimately, the relationship between RFS and preoperative HALP was investigated.
RESULTS The optimal cutoff value for HALP was determined to be 31.5 by X-tile analysis. HALP was significantly associated with tumor site, tumor size, mitosis, Ki67, National Institutes of Health (NIH) risk category, and adjuvant therapy (all P < 0.001). Before PSM, GIST patients with an increased HALP had a significantly poor RFS (P < 0.001), and low HALP was an independent risk factor for poor RFS [hazard ratio (HR): 0.506, 95% confidence interval (95%CI): 0.291-0.879, P = 0.016]. In NIH high-risk GIST patients, GIST patients with low HALP had a worse RFS than patients with high HALP (P < 0.05). After PSM, 458 GIST patients were identified; those with an increased HALP still had significantly poor RFS after PSM (P < 0.001) and low HALP was still an independent risk factor for poor RFS (HR: 0.558, 95%CI: 0.319-0.976, P = 0.041).
CONCLUSION HALP was significantly correlated with postoperative pathology and postoperative treatment. Furthermore, HALP showed a strong ability to predict RFS in GIST patients who underwent radical resection.

Risk factor analysis of postoperative pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy, with a focus on pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio and serrated pancreatic contour. BMC Surg 2022; 22:240. [PMID: 35733145 PMCID: PMC9215066 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-022-01650-8] [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: 02/20/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In pancreaticoduodenectomy, the pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio and serrated pancreatic contour on preoperative CT have been revealed as risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistulas. We aimed to evaluate whether they could also serve as risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy. METHODS A total of 251 patients that underwent distal pancreatectomy at our department from 2006 to 2020 were enrolled for the study. We retrospectively analyzed risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy using various pre and intraoperative factors, including preoperative CT findings, such as pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio and serrated pancreatic contour. RESULTS The study population included 147 male and 104 female participants (median age, 68 years; median body mass index, 21.4 kg/m2), including 64 patients with diabetes mellitus (25.5%). Preoperative CT evaluation showed a serrated pancreatic contour in 80 patients (31.9%), a pancreatic thickness of 9.3 mm (4.0-22.0 mm), pancreatic parenchymal CT value of 41.8 HU (4.3-22.0 HU), and pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio of - 0.41 (- 4.88 to - 0.04). Postoperative pancreatic fistulas were developed in 34.2% of the patients. Univariate analysis of risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistulas showed that younger age (P = 0.005), high body mass index (P = 0.001), absence of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.002), high preoperative C-reactive protein level (P = 0.024), pancreatic thickness (P < 0.001), and high pancreatic parenchymal CT value (P = 0.018) were significant risk factors; however, pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio (P = 0.337) and a serrated pancreatic contour (P = 0.122) did not serve as risk factors. Multivariate analysis showed that high body mass index (P = 0.032), absence of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.001), and pancreatic thickness (P < 0.001) were independent risk factors. CONCLUSION The pancreas-visceral fat CT value ratio and serrated pancreatic contour evaluated using preoperative CT were not risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy. High body mass index, absence of diabetes mellitus, and pancreatic thickness were independent risk factors, and a close-to-normal pancreas with minimal fat deposition or atrophy is thought to indicate a higher risk of postoperative pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy.

Predictive risk factors for early recurrence in patients with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent curative-intent resection after preoperative chemoradiotherapy. PLoS One 2022; 17:e0264573. [PMID: 35377885 PMCID: PMC8979444 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0264573] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Accepted: 02/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The optimal surgical indication after preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) remains a subject of debate for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) because early recurrence often occurs even after curative-intent resection. The present study aimed to identify perioperative risk factors of early recurrence for patients with PDAC who underwent curative-intent resection after preoperative CRT. Methods Two hundred three patients with PDAC who underwent curative-intent resection after preoperative CRT from February 2005 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal threshold for differentiating between early and late recurrence was determined by the minimum p-value approach. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify predictive factors for early recurrence. Results In 130 patients who developed recurrence after resection, 52 who had an initial recurrence within 12 months were defined as the early recurrence group, and the remaining 78 were defined as the late recurrence group. The incidence of hepatic recurrence was significantly higher in the early recurrence group than in the late recurrence group (39.7 vs. 15.4%). The early recurrence group had significantly lower 3-year rates of post-recurrence and overall survival than the late recurrence group (4.0 and 10.7% vs. 9.8 and 59.0%, respectively). Serum level of CA19-9 before surgery ≥56.8 U/ml was identified as an independent risk factor for early recurrence (OR:3.07, 95%CI:1.65–5.73, p<0.001) and associated with a significantly higher cumulative incidence rate of hepatic recurrence and lower rates of recurrence-free and overall survival. Conclusion Serum level of CA19-9 before surgery after preoperative CRT was a strong predictive factor for early recurrence.

Abstract
Background/objective To investigate the influence of pre-operative immunological and nutritional status, assessed by the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) score, on post-operative infection, and the potential additive effects of low PNI and infection on prognosis after radical resection of stage II/III gastric cancer (GC). Methods The medical records of 2352 consecutive stage II/III GC patients who underwent radical gastrectomy were retrospectively reviewed. The independent predictors for infections were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses. Cox regression analysis was used to assess any associations between PNI, infection and OS. Results A total of 160 (6.8%) cases developed infections and low PNI (< 43.9) was confirmed as an independent predictor. Both PNI < 43.9 and infections independently predicted poor OS (hazard ratio: 1.163, 95% confidence interval: 1.007–1.343; HR: 1.347, 95%CI: 1.067–1.700), and an additive effect was confirmed as patients with both low PNI and infection had worst OS. Further stratified analyses showed that complete peri-operative adjuvant chemotherapy (PAC, ≥ 6 cycles) could significantly improve OS in patients with low PNI and/or infection, which was comparable to those with PNI ≥ 43.9 and/or infection (P = 0.160). Conclusions Infection was the most common complication after gastrectomy and PNI < 43.9 was identified as an independent predictor. Low PNI was associated with poorer OS in stage II/III GC, independent of infections, and low PNI and infections had a synergistic effect that was associated with worst OS. However, complete PAC could significantly improve OS in these patients. Thus, strategies to decrease infection and complete PAC should be further investigated.

Poor nutrition and sarcopenia are related to systemic inflammatory response in patients with rectal cancer undergoing preoperative chemoradiotherapy. Int J Colorectal Dis 2022; 37:189-200. [PMID: 34633498 DOI: 10.1007/s00384-021-04039-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard therapy for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, the changes that the patient's physical status during CRT, such as host systemic inflammatory response, nutritional status, and muscle depletion, are still unclear. We evaluated the clinical significance of malnutrition and sarcopenia for patients with LARC undergoing CRT. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with LARC treated with CRT following radical surgery at our institution between 2006 and 2016 (N = 225) were retrospectively analyzed. A new prognostic score (PNSI) was devised based on the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and the psoas muscle mass index (PMI): patients with malnutrition/sarcopenia were scored 2; patients with one and neither abnormality were scored 1 and 0, respectively. RESULTS Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, monocyte/lymphocyte ratio, and platelet/lymphocyte ratio increased, whereas PNI and PMI decreased after CRT. There were 130, 73, and 22 patients in the PNSI 0, 1, and 2 groups, respectively. Patients with higher PNSI had higher residual tumor size (p = 0.003), yT stage (p = 0.007), ypStage (p < 0.001), post-CRT platelet/lymphocyte ratio (p = 0.027), and post-CRT C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (p < 0.001). Post-CRT PNSI was associated with overall survival and was an independent poor prognosis factor (PNSI 1 to 0, hazard ratio 2.40, p = 0.034, PNSI 2 to 0, hazard ratio 2.66, p = 0.043) together with mesenteric lymph node metastasis, lateral lymph node metastasis, and histology. CONCLUSION A combined score of post-CRT malnutrition/sarcopenia is promising for predicting overall survival in LARC.

PLoS One 2021; 16:e0245946. [PMID: 33507925 PMCID: PMC7842956 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0245946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In many malignancies including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA), prognostic significance of host-related inflammatory / immunonutritional markers have attracted a lot of attention. However, it is unclear which is the strongest prognostic indicator for iCCA among these markers. The aim of this study was to firstly evaluate the prognostic utility of inflammatory / immunonutritional markers in resected iCCA patients using a multiple comparison in addition to a new marker, lymphocyte-to-C-reactive protein (CRP) score. METHODS A total of sixty iCCA patients, who underwent surgical resection between October 2004 and April 2019, were enrolled in this study. Their clinical and pathological data were retrospectively assessed using univariate and multivariate analysis to determine prognostic predictors for disease specific survival (DSS). Moreover, these patients, who were divided into high and low groups based on lymphocyte-to-CRP score, were compared these survival outcomes using Kaplan-Meier analysis with a log-rank test. RESULTS In multivariate analysis, the significant prognostic factors were preoperative lymphocyte-to-CRP score (p = 0.008), preoperative CRP-to-albumin ratio (CAR; p = 0.017), pathological T category (p = 0.003), and pathological vascular invasion (p < 0.001). Resected iCCA patients with a low lymphocyte-to-CRP score (score 0) had significant better prognosis than patients with a high score (score 1 or 2) (p = 0.016). Notably, the mortality of the high lymphocyte-to-CRP score group did not show statistically difference from the poor mortality of unresected iCCA patients (p = 0.204). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative lymphocyte-to-CRP score was the strongest prognostic indicator in iCCA patients with surgical resection. In these patients, early intervention with nutritional support should be considered prior to operation.

Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index Less Than 92 Is a Predictor for Late Postpancreatectomy Hemorrhage Following Pancreatoduodenectomy: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12102779. [PMID: 32998260 PMCID: PMC7600944 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12102779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The definite risk factor of postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) is still unknown in spite of a lethal complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). In this study, we evaluated whether GNRI is a reliable marker for PPH following PD. The present study retrospectively evaluated 121 patients treated with PD at Ageo Central General Hospital in Japan. Ten patients had developed PPH. Among them, the patients were divided into bleeding group (n = 10) and non-bleeding group (n = 111). The bleeding group had significantly low geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) values compared to those in the non-bleeding group (p = 0.001). The cut-off value of GNRI was determined by 92 accounting for a sensitivity 80.0%, specificity 82.9% using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. A GNRI of <92 was statistically identified as an independently risk factor of PPH risk following PD. Abstract Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) is the most lethal complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). The main risk factor for PPH is the development of a postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Recent evidence shows that the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) may be predictive indicator for POPF. In this study, we aimed to evaluate whether GNRI is a reliable predictive marker for PPH following PD. The present study retrospectively evaluated 121 patients treated with PD at Ageo Central General Hospital in Japan between January 2015 and March 2020. We investigated the potential of age, gender, body mass index, serum albumin, American Society of Anesthesiologists classification (ASA), diabetes mellitus and smoking status, time taken for the operation, estimated blood loss, and postoperative complications (POPF, bile leak, and surgical site infections) to predict the risk of PPH following PD using univariate and multivariate analyses. Ten patients had developed PPH with an incidence of 8.3%. Among them, the patients were divided into bleeding group (n = 10) and non-bleeding group (n = 111). The bleeding group had significantly lower GNRI values than those in the non-bleeding group (p = 0.001). We determined that the cut-off value of GNRI was 92 accounting for a sensitivity 80.0%, specificity 82.9%, and likelihood ratio of 4.6 using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. A GNRI of <92 was statistically associated with PPH in both univariate (p < 0.001) and multivariate analysis (p = 0.01). Therefore, we could identify that a GNRI < 92 was an independently potential predictor of PPH risk following PD. We should alert surgeons if patients have low level GNRI before PD.

Abstract
Background Several studies were conducted to explore the prognostic value of modified Glasgow Prognostic Score (mGPS) in pancreatic cancer, which reported contradictory results. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to summarize and further investigate the correlation between mGPS and overall survival (OS) in pancreatic cancer. Methods A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science, Cochrane library databases and OVID to identify eligible studies published from Jan 1, 2011 to June 20, 2020. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to detect the prognostic significance of mGPS in patients with pancreatic cancer. Results A total of 222 non-repetitive studies were identified, and 20 related studies that explored the association between survival outcomes and mGPS in pancreatic cancer patients were finally enrolled in this meta-analysis. The results showed a significant correlation between high level of mGPS and poor OS (HR = 1.50, 95% CI 1.20-1.89, P < 0.0001). Similar results were observed in the subgroup analyses based on the treatment regimen and research region. Conclusions Our study suggested the close association between poor prognosis and high level of mGPS, which will be helpful for future clinical applications in patients with pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
Introduction Solid pseudopapillary tumors of pancreas (SPTP) is an indolent rare tumor with malignant potential. The prediction of malignancy is an enigma. The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between operative measurements and malignancy prognosis of SPTP patients. Methods A cohort of consecutive 102 patients were enrolled in this study. Preoperative measurements and clinical outcomes were analyzed. Results Eighteen patients (17.6%) were confirmed as malignant. The malignant SPTP of the optimal cut-off value was 47.9 (p=0.012) for prognostic nutritional index (PNI). The value of PNI≤47.9 and incomplete capsule were significantly correlated with malignancy. Univariate analysis showed that the PNI≤47.9 (p=0.013) and incomplete capsule (p<0.001) were predictors of disease-specific survival (DSS). Multivariate analysis identified the PNI≤47.9 (p=0.036) and incomplete capsule (p=0.023) as the independent prognostic factors of DSS. The new score of 0,1,2 based on PNI and capsule presence stratified the patients into 3 groups. The patients with low PNI and incomplete capsule achieved the worst prognosis. Conclusion The combination test of operative PNI and capsule presence would be a reliable indicator of the aggressive natural history of SPTP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic value of the modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) in patients with pancreatic cancer is controversial, based on previous studies. Therefore, this meta-analysis aimed to explore the relationship between mGPS and prognosis in pancreatic cancer. METHODS The databases PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched to identify eligible studies. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to estimate the associations between mGPS score and survival outcomes. RESULTS A total of 26 studies with 5198 patients were included in this meta-analysis. In a pooled analysis, elevated mGPS predicted poorer overall survival (OS; HR = 1.98, 95% CI, 1.65-2.37, P < .001). In addition, elevated mGPS was also significantly associated with worse progression-free survival (PFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and cancer-specific survival (CSS; HR = 1.95, 95% CI, 1.36-2.80, P < .001). Subgroup analyses confirmed a significant association between mGPS and survival outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis demonstrated that high mGPS was correlated to worse OS, PFS, DFS, and CSS in patients with pancreatic cancer. Therefore, mGPS could be employed as an effective prognostic factor for pancreatic cancer in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background The prognosis of patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma have been unsatisfactory. We established new anatomical resectability classification for patients with localized perihilar cholangiocarcinoma and performed neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by curative-intent surgery based on its resectability classification and lymph node status to improve prognosis. This study aimed to clarify the long-term outcomes and validation of our strategy. Methods Between September 2010 and August 2018, 72 consecutive patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma were classified into three groups: Resectable (R = 29), Borderline resectable (BR = 23), and Locally advanced (LA = 20), based on the two factors of tumor vascular and biliary extension. R with clinically lymph node metastasis, BR, and LA patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy using gemcitabine plus S-1. Results Forty-seven patients (65.3%) received neoadjuvant chemotherapy: R in 8, BR in 21, and 18 in LA, respectively. Fifty-nine patients (68.1%) underwent curative-intent surgery: R in 26, BR in 17, and LA in 6. Five-year disease-specific survival was 31.5% (median survival time: 33.0 months): 50.3% (not reached) in R, 30.0% (31.4 months) in BR, and 16.5% (22.5 months) in LA, which were relatively stratified. Among 49 patients with resection, disease-specific survival was 43.8% (57.0 months): 57.6% (not reached) in R, 41.0% (52.4 months) in BR, and 0% (49.4 months) in LA, which were significantly good prognosis compared to 23 patients without resection (17.2 months). Multivariate analysis identified preoperative high carcinoembryonic antigen levels (more than 8.5 ng/ml) and pT4 as independent poor prognostic factor of patients with resection. Conclusion Neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on resectability classification and lymph node status was feasible, and was considered efficacious in selected patients.

Abstract
Inflammation and nutritional status have significant effects on the prognosis of cancer patients. This study investigated the predictive value of clinical biochemistry-based indexes in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This retrospective study included 559 NPC patients and 500 patients with chronic rhinitis. Continuous variables were measured by t-test. The area under curves (AUC) was used to determine the diagnostic and prognostic value for NPC. Kaplan-Meier methods and the log-rank test were used to analyze overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of the patients. Cox and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the independent prognostic risk factors for survival and influencing factors of side effects after treatment, respectively. The study results revealed that most indexes of NPC and rhinitis were significantly different between the two groups. In the survival analysis, the systemic inflammation score (SIS), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), albumin/globulin ratio (AGR), albumin (ALB), urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CREA) had significant influence on the OS and DFS. AGR was the optimal prognostic indicator for NPC. Among these indexes, SIS, AGR, BUN and CERA were independent prognostic factors of OS, AGR and PNI were independent prognostic factors of DFS. Most indexes were risk factors of side effects occurred in radiotherapy. In conclusion, the clinical biochemistry-based indexes, are reliable and of low-cost, therefore, they can be used in predicting diagnosis, prognosis and treatment plans of NPC.

World J Gastroenterol 2020; 26:828-838. [PMID: 32148380 PMCID: PMC7052532 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i8.828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 87] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2019] [Revised: 01/08/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic inflammation and nutrition status play an important role in cancer metastasis. The combined index of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP), consisting of haemoglobin, albumin, lymphocytes, and platelets, is considered as a novel marker to reflect both systemic inflammation and nutrition status. However, no studies have investigated the relationship between HALP and survival of patients with pancreatic cancer following radical resection.
AIM To evaluate the prognostic value of preoperative HALP in pancreatic cancer patients.
METHODS The preoperative serum levels of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte counts, and platelet counts were routinely detected in 582 pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients who underwent radical resection. The relationship between postoperative survival and the preoperative level of HALP was investigated.
RESULTS Low levels of HALP were significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (P = 0.002), poor tumor differentiation (P = 0.032), high TNM stage (P = 0.008), female patients (P = 0.005) and tumor location in the head of the pancreas (P < 0.001). Low levels of HALP were associated with early recurrence [7.3 mo vs 16.3 mo, P < 0.001 for recurrence-free survival (RFS)] and short survival [11.5 mo vs 23.6 mo, P < 0.001 for overall survival (OS)] in patients with resected pancreatic adenocarcinoma. A low level of HALP was an independent risk factor for early recurrence and short survival irrespective of sex and tumor location.
CONCLUSION Low levels of HALP may be a significant risk factor for RFS and OS in patients with resected pancreatic cancer.

Chemotherapy-Induced Reduction of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Is Associated With Better Survival in Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: A Meta-Analysis. Cancer Control 2020; 27:1073274820977135. [PMID: 33269614 PMCID: PMC8480367 DOI: 10.1177/1073274820977135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2020] [Revised: 10/13/2020] [Accepted: 10/27/2020] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Numerous studies have suggested that an increase in neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) before treatment is associated with worse survival in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC). The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of treatment-induced NLR change among PAC patients so as to better identify the characteristics of those who can benefit more from treatment. METHODS This meta-analysis was undertaken using the PRISMA statement. Previously published studies between the correlation of NLR change and patients' survival were searched in Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science databases. RevMan 5.3 was used to conduct statistical analysis. RESULTS A total of 1213 patients with PAC from 6 retrospective studies were included in this meta-analysis. Four studies investigated the HR of pre-treatment NLR, demonstrating its prognostic impact on overall survival (OS) (HR = 2.21, 95%CI: 1.45-3.36). One study reported that an elevated post-treatment NLR was associated with poorer OS (HR = 1.28, 95%CI = 1.08-1.52). Pooled analysis indicated that NLR reduction might predict favorable survival in both the overall population (HR = 1.52, 95% CI: 1.34-1.73) and the subgroup treated with chemotherapy (HR = 1.50, 95% CI: 1.32-1.70). CONCLUSION Treatment-induced NLR change can act as an early predictor for PAC. Patients with reduced NLR after chemotherapy are expected to have better survival.
