Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are believed to be particularly important and a reliable marker of malignancy.However, the prognostic significance of CTCs detected in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is stillunclear. We therefore aimed to assess the prognostic relevance of CTCs using a meta-analysis. We searchedPubMed for relevant studies and statistical analyses were conducted to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) and95% confidence intervals (CIs) using fixed or random-effect models according to the heterogeneity of includedstudies. A total of 7 papers covering 440 SCLC patients were combined in the final analysis. The meta-analysisrevealed that CTCs were significantly associated with shorter overall survival (HR=1.9; 95%CI: 1.19-3.04;Z=2.67; P<0.0001) and progression-free survival (HR=2.6; 95%CI: 1.9-3.54; Z=6.04; P<0.0001). The resultsthus suggest that the presence of CTCs indicates a poor prognosis in patients with SCLC. Further well-designedprospective studies are required to explore the clinical applications of CTCs in SCLC. 相似文献

A recent approach in the treatment of limited-stage small celllung cancer (LDSCLC) has involved a combined modality of chemotherapyand chest irradiation. In using the modality, the study of schedulingmethods for combining chemotherapy and radiotherapy should leadto other trials of combined modalities against LDSCLC sinceit is the most basic issue to be evaluated. We have thus conducteda multicenter phase II trial of concurrent cisplatin-etoposide(PVP) chemotherapy and radiotherapy for LDSCLC to determinethe effects of the concurrent administration of a PVP regimenand chest irradiation on response rate, relapse, survival andtreatment toxicity. The chemotherapy regimen consisted of afour-week cycle: cisplatin (80 mg/m2, given intravenously onday 1) and etoposide (100 mg/m2, given intravenously on days13). This cycle was given four to six times within sixmonths. Chest irradiation to the primary tumors at both thehili and the mediastinum was administered in standard fractionson days 212 in the first cycle of chemotherapy and ondays 2947 in the second cycle, with a total dose of 4050Gy. Prophylactic cranial irradiation was performed among completeremission (CR) or good partial remission (PR) patients aftercompletion of the concurrent therapy. A total of 66 patientswere entered into the trial and 59 were evaluated. The concurrenttherapy induced an overall response rate of 94.9% in 59 patients:24 patients, 40.7% CR, 32 patients, 54.2% PR. The median responseduration was 8.7 months, and the median survival time for alleligible patients was 14.8 months. The percentage of patientswith two-year survival periods was 20. A local relapse withinthe irradiated area was seen in only 22% of relapsed patients.Brain metastases occurred in 24% of patients. Four of 32 patientstreated with prophylactic cranial irradiation had brain metastases.Toxic effects, chiefly grades 3 and 4 leukopenia, as establishedby the World Health Organization, were detected in all treatedpatients. Other toxicities, including radiation-induced esophagitisand pneumonitis, were deemed almost acceptable. We concludedconcurrent treatment of a PVP regimen with chest irradiationto be a feasible and beneficial therapy with an efficacy compatibleto that of other published reports. The outcome of this protocolwarrants further investigation to determine the optimal typeof schedule for concurrent chemoradiotherapy against LDSCLC. 相似文献

Background: The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is a strong predictor of mortality in patients withcolorectal, lung, gastric cancer, pancreatic and metastatic renal cell carcinoma. We here evaluated whetherpreoperative NLR is an independent prognostic factor for non-metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Materialsand Methods: Data from 327 patients who underwent curative or palliative nephrectomy were evaluatedretrospectively. In preoperative blood routine examination, neutrophils and lymphocytes were obtained. Thepredictive value of NLR for non-metastatic RCC was analyzed. Results: The NLR of 327 patients was 2.72±2.25.NLR <1.7 and NLR ≥1.7 were classified as low and high NLR groups, respectively. Chi-square test showed thatthe preoperative NLR was significantly correlated with the tumor size (P=0.025), but not with the histologicalsubtype (P=0.095)and the pT stage (P=0.283). Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) wereassessed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Effects of NLR on OS (P=0.007) and DFS (P=0.011) were significant. Toevaluate the independent prognostic significance of NLR, multivariate COX regression models were applied andidentified increased NLR as an independent prognostic factor for OS (P=0.015), and DFS (P=0.019). Conclusions:Regarding patient survival, an increased NLR represented an independent risk factor, which might reflect ahigher risk for severe cardiovascular and other comorbidities. An elevated blood NLR may be a biomarker ofpoor OS and DFS in patients with non-metastatic RCC. 相似文献

IntroductionRecently, the lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) has been proposed as an easily determinable prognostic factor in patients with cancer, including lymphomas. The objective of this study was the evaluation of the impact of baseline absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute monocyte count (AMC), and the LMR on the treatment response and prognosis in follicular lymphoma (FL).Patients and MethodsThe data of 100 patients with a FL variant, admitted and treated between January 2009 and June 2018, were analyzed.ResultsThe area under the receiver operator characteristic curve and cutoff values of ALC, AMC, and LMR for discrimination between survival times using receiver operating characteristic curves showed 0.57 × 109/L as the most discriminative ALC cutoff value, 1.235 ×109/L as the most discriminative AMC cutoff value, and 1.63 as the most discriminative LMR cutoff value. Progressive disease and stable disease after first-line therapy and mortality rate were significantly associated with lower ALC, higher AMC, and higher LMR. Shorter overall survival (OS) was significantly associated with patients with lower ALC when compared with those having higher ALC. Shorter OS and progression-free survival (PFS) were significantly associated with higher AMC when compared with those having lower AMC. Shorter OS and PFS were significantly associated with lower LMR when compared with those having higher LMR. High-risk Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index as well as low LMR were considered as risk factors for prediction of OS in all the studied patients with FL in univariate analysis and multivariate analysis.ConclusionALC, AMC, and LMR at diagnosis are simple indices, which reflect the host systemic immunity and can predict the clinical outcomes in FL. 相似文献

Background: CD44v6 (CD44 variant exon 6) is the chief CD44 variant isoform regulating tumor invasion, progression, and metastasis. The prognostic value of CD44v6 expression in non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been evaluated in many studies, but the results have remained controversial. Thus, we performed a metaanalysis of currently available studies to investigate the prognostic value of CD44v6 expression in NSCLC patients and the relationship between the expression of CD44v6 and clinicopathological features. Materials and Methods: Two independent reviewers searched the relevant literature in Pubmed, Medline and Embase from 1946 to January 2014. Overall survival (OS) and various clinicopathological features were collected from included studies. This meta-analysis was accomplished using STATA 12.0 and Revman 5.2 software. Pooledhazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were calculated to estimate the effects. Results: A total of 921 NSCLC patients from ten studies met the inclusion criteria. The results showed that CD44v6 high expression was a prognostic factor for poor survival (HR=1.91, 95%CI=1.12-3.26, p<0.05). With respectto clinicopathological features, CD44v6 high expression was related to histopathologic type (squamous cell carcinoma versus adenocarcinoma: OR=2.72, 95%CI=1.38-5.38, p=0.004), and lymph node metastasis (OR=3.02,95%CI=1.93-4.72, p<0.00001). Conclusions: Our results suggested CD44v6 high expression as a poor prognostic factor for NSCLC, and CD44v6 expression is associated with lymph node metastasis and histopathologic type. Therefore, CD44v6 expression can be used as a novel prognostic marker in NSCLC cases. 相似文献

Introduction
Patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) have a high incidence of occult brain metastases and are often treated with prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI). Despite a small survival advantage in some studies, the role of PCI in extensive stage SCLC remains controversial. We used the National Cancer Database to assess survival of patients with metastatic SCLC treated with PCI.Patients and Methods
Metastatic SCLC patients without brain metastases were identified. To minimize treatment selection bias, patients with an overall survival (OS) < 6 months were excluded. Cox regression identified variables associated with OS. Patients were propensity score-matched on factors associated with receipt of PCI or OS. The effect of PCI on OS was examined using Kaplan–Meier estimates.Results
In the overall cohort (n = 4257), treatment with PCI (n = 473) was associated with improved survival (hazard ratio, 0.66; 95% confidence interval, 0.60-0.74; P < .0001). Comparisons of propensity score-matched cohorts revealed a significant survival benefit for patients who received PCI in median OS (13.9 vs. 11.1 months; P < .0001), as well as 1- and 2-year OS (61.2% vs. 44.0% and 19.8% vs. 11.5%, respectively; P < .0001). This survival benefit persisted even after excluding patients who survived < 9 months (median: 15.3 vs. 12.9 months; P < .0001). In multivariable analysis, predictors of receipt of PCI were Caucasian race, younger age, and lower Charlson–Deyo score.Conclusion
Using a modern population-based data set, we showed that metastatic SCLC patients treated with PCI have significantly improved OS. This large retrospective study helps address the conflicting prospective data. 相似文献12.

Haemogram assessment is a cheap and easy method which can be readily performed for almost all patients. Leucocyte, neutrophil and lymphocyte counts and the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) are markers of systemic inflammation. We here aimed to evaluate haemogram parameters of our patients with lung cancer according to the pathologic diagnosis of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Materials and Methods: The study included 386 patients diagnosed with lung cancer in our hospital between January 2006 and January 2014. A retrospective examination was made of the data from the patient records and the hospital information. NLR values were categorised into two groups: Results: Median survival time in patients aged aged ≥65 years, it was 18.4 months (p<0.001). The median survival time was 20.2 months in NSCLC and 13.0 months in SCLC patients (p<0.001). In NSCLC cases with NLRthat of patients with NLR≥3 (18 months) (p=0.003). In SCLC patients, no relationship could be found between NLR and median survival time (p=0.408). With every 1 unit increase in lymphocyte count a 5.5% decrease in risk of periodic death ((1/0.947)x100=5.5%) was noted. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated that lymphocyte count, neutrophil count, Hb, Htc, and NLR are useful in determining prognosis in lung cancer (LC) patients and NLR could be more significant in determining the prognosis in NSCLC than in SCLC cases. 相似文献

The androgen receptor (AR) is increasingly considered as a potential biomarker for breast cancer. Nevertheless, the prognostic value of AR expression in patients with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains controversial. Therefore, in this meta-analysis, we investigated AR expression and its impact on survival outcome. PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and references of articles were searched to identify relevant studies that investigated the association between AR expression and prognosis in patients diagnosed with TNBC and were published between 1946 and May 2019. The hazard ratio (HR) and confidence interval (CI) of disease-free survival, overall survival, distant disease-free survival, and recurrence-free survival were weighted and pooled by using the fixed-effect or random-effect model based on the heterogeneity of included studies. A total of 27 studies including 4914 patients with TNBC were included. AR was expressed in 27.96% (1315/4703) of patients with TNBC. In addition, AR expression in TNBC was not associated with disease-free survival (HR, 0.923; 95% CI, 0.671-1.271; P = .634), overall survival (HR, 0.910; 95% CI, 0.678-1.222; P = .531), distant disease-free survival (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.96-1.08; P = .489), or recurrence-free survival (HR, 0.957; 95% CI, 0.462-1.982; P = .906) in TNBC, regardless of confounding factors and heterogeneity that existed among included studies. In patients with TNBC, AR expression is not associated with prognosis. 相似文献

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy combined with EP chemotherapy in the treatment of limited-stage small-cell lung cancer (LS-SCLC). Methods A total of 117 patients with LS-SCLC were enrolled and randomly divided into test group (n=59) and control group (n=58). Patients in the experiment group were given hypofractionated thoracic radiotherapy combined with EP chemotherapy, while patients in the control group were given hyperfractionation radiotherapy combined with EP chemotherapy. Objective response rate (ORR), 2-year overall survival (OS), 2-year progression free survival (PFS), and immune cell level were used to evaluate clinical efficacy. We compared the incidence of side effects between the two groups. Results After the treatment, the ORR of patients in the test group was higher than that in the control group (P>0.05). The mean OS and PFS of patients in the test group were significantly longer than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, and NK cells in the test group were significantly higher, whereas the levels of CD8+ were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of radiation pneumonitis, radiation esophagitis, and severe dermatitis in the test group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Hypofractionated radiotherapy combined with EP chemotherapy for treatment of LS-SCLC can effectively improve the anticancer efficacy and patient survival, reduce the damage to the body’s immune function, and alleviate adverse reaction of radiotherapy. © 2023, CHINA RESEARCH ON PREVENTION AND TREATMENT.
