Background
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy of plasma cell origin. MM primarily affects bone marrow, but extramedullary sites can also be involved. Myelomatous pleural effusion (MPE) is an atypical and rare complication of MM. We aimed to systematically study the incidence and clinicopathologic profile of patients with MPE in a real-world setting.Patients and Methods
In this retrospective study, 415 consecutive patients with MM managed at a tertiary care center in North India during a study period of January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2015 were evaluated for MPE. The patients with MPE were analyzed for their clinical profile, diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes.Results
Of these 415 patients, 11 (2.65%) patients had MPE. The median age of the study population was 50 years with male preponderance. The majority of these patients had immunoglobin (Ig)G Kappa disease. All patients had higher than International Staging System stage I disease. MPE was a presenting feature at MM diagnosis in 45.45% (n = 5) of the patients, whereas the rest developed MPE during follow-up. MPE presented predominantly (81.8%) as a unilateral effusion. Concurrent extramedullary involvement at other site was seen in 45.45% (n = 5), with 3 (27%) patients having concurrent myelomatous ascites. Six of these were managed aggressively, whereas 5 patients opted for palliation. The outcomes were dismal (90.9% mortality), with a median survival of 2.47 months.Conclusion
MPE is a rare entity, and positive outcomes of therapy remain low with dismal prognosis. 相似文献2.

Introduction
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in women, and the incidence of brain metastasis (BM) from BC ranges from 20% to 30%, with a median survival of 10 to 15 months. Previous reports have shown that the presence of obesity or diabetes negatively impacts survival. The present study investigates the association between obesity or diabetes mellitus (DM) and overall survival of patients with BC with BM.Materials and Methods
A database from 2 referral centers for the period of July 2014 to February 2018 was analyzed. The inclusion criteria were as follows: patients who had a confirmed diagnosis of BC with BM were followed and treated at these centers. Demographic data, body weight and height, clinical and oncologic history, functional status, prognostic scales, and prognoses were examined.Results
A total of 228 patients were included. The median age at BM was 50 years; the median survival after diagnosis was 12.1 months; 108 patients had a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25, and 40 (17%) patients had DM. The association between survival and the presence of BMI > 25 exhibited a P value of 0.3.Discussion
We found no association between overweight, obesity, or DM and survival in patients with BC with BM. The role of obesity in cancer is a robust research topic, as there are many questions to be answered.Conclusion
Obesity as a prognostic indicator should be further studied, because we found no association between overall survival and either patients with BM from BC with a BMI > 25 or those with normal weight. 相似文献3.

Background
The objective of the study was to evaluate the outcomes of clinically localized prostate cancer treated with prostatectomy versus radiation therapy within the context of a prospective prostate cancer screening study.Patients and Methods
Within the PLCO (Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovary) trial, patients who were diagnosed with clinically localized prostate cancer and subsequently received treatment with prostatectomy or radiation therapy (with or without hormonal treatment) were included. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were then performed to determine factors affecting overall and prostate cancer-specific survival. Factors with P < .05 in univariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis.Results
A total of 3953 patients were included in the current analysis. These included 2044 patients treated with prostatectomy and 1909 patients treated with radiation therapy with or without hormonal treatment. In an adjusted multivariate analysis for factors affecting overall survival, prostatectomy was associated with better overall survival compared with radiation therapy (hazard ratio, 0.548; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.440- 681; P < .001). Likewise, in an adjusted multivariate analysis for factors affecting prostate cancer-specific survival, prostatectomy was associated with better prostate cancer-specific survival compared with radiation therapy (hazard ratio, 0.485; 95% CI, 0.286- 0.822; P = .007). Similar findings were found with propensity score matching and repeating the same analyses on the post-matching cohort.Conclusion
Prostatectomy seems to predict better overall and prostate cancer-specific survival compared with radiation therapy among patients with clinically localized prostate cancer diagnosed within the PLCO trial. 相似文献4.

Introduction
Nivolumab is effective in the treatment of previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC. However, its radiological evaluation is challenging because of atypical patterns of response such as pseudoprogression. We examined the characteristics and outcomes of previously treated patients with NSCLC who were treated with nivolumab and experienced development of pseudoprogression.Methods
We conducted a 15-center retrospective cohort study of previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC who received nivolumab monotherapy. For the patients who showed pseudoprogression, we defined progression-free survival 1 (PFS1) as the time to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors–defined first progressive disease and progression-free survival 2 (PFS2) as the time to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors–defined second progressive disease or death.Results
Among the 542 patients included, 20% and 53% showed a typical response and progression, respectively. Of the 14 (3%) patients who showed pseudoprogression, most (n = 10) showed a response within 3 months of nivolumab treatment. The median PFS1 and PFS2 were 1.0 and 7.3 months, respectively. The median PFS2 was significantly shorter in the patients who showed pseudoprogression than the PFS of the patients with a typical response (p < 0.001). In contrast, patients showing pseudoprogression had significantly longer overall survival than did patients showing typical progression (p = 0.001).Conclusions
Pseudoprogression was uncommon, and the duration of response in patients who showed pseudoprogression was shorter than that in patients who showed a typical response. However, the survival benefit of pseudoprogression was markedly better than that of typical progression. Further research is required to elucidate the characteristics of and mechanisms underlying pseudoprogression. 相似文献5.

Background
First-line adjuvant chemotherapy options for early-stage colorectal cancer (CRC) include CapeOx (capecitabine, intravenous oxaliplatin) and FOLFOX (intravenous 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin). Capecitabine is an oral prodrug analog of 5-fluorouracil, and recent studies have suggested that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) may detrimentally affect capecitabine efficacy. Conversely, some literature suggests that PPIs may negatively affect CRC itself. To gain insight into the nature of PPIs’ effect on capecitabine and CRC, we investigated their effects on effectiveness of CapeOx versus FOLFOX chemotherapy.Patients and Methods
We conducted a retrospective chart review of 389 patients with stage II-III CRC who received adjuvant CapeOx or FOLFOX from 2004 to 2013. Information regarding PPI receipt, chemotherapy, and patient outcomes from medical records was analyzed.Results
Three-year recurrence-free survival was significantly lower in CapeOx-treated PPI recipients than non-PPI recipients (69.5 vs. 82.6%; P = .029). Unadjusted analysis showed that CapeOx-treated PPI recipients were twice as likely to experience cancer recurrence or death as CapeOx-treated non-PPI recipients (hazard ratio = 2.03; 95% confidence interval, 1.06-3.88; P = .033). FOLFOX-treated PPI recipients had a non–statistically significant difference in 3-year recurrence-free survival versus non-PPI recipients (82.9 vs. 61.7%; P = .066) and a non–statistically significant difference in recurrence/death (hazard ratio = 0.51; 95% confidence interval, 0.25-1.06; P = .071). No significant differences were seen in overall survival between groups.Conclusion
Our results suggest PPIs negatively affected recurrence-free survival in CapeOx-treated CRC patients and yielded no significant effects among FOLFOX-treated patients, potentially implicating a pharmacokinetic interaction between PPIs and capecitabine. No overall survival effects were seen. Given PPIs’ widespread use, further studies are required to corroborate our findings. 相似文献6.

Background
Radical cystectomy (RC) may occasionally be performed in individuals with metastatic urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (mUCB). However, the role of lymph node dissection (LND) for such cases is unknown. Thus, we tested the effect of RC on cancer-specific mortality (CSM) and overall mortality in mUCB patients and the effect of LND and its extent on CSM.Patients and Methods
Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004-2013), we identified patients with mUCB who underwent RC with or without LND or non-RC management. Kaplan-Meier analyses and multivariable Cox regression models (CRMs) were used, after propensity score matching. The number of removed nodes best predicting CSM was identified using cubic splines and then was tested in multivariable CRMs.Results
Of 2314 patients, 319 (13.8%) underwent RC. After 2:1 propensity score matching, CSM-free survival was 14 versus 8 months (P < .001), and overall mortality–free survival was 12 versus 7 months (P < .001) for, respectively, RC and non-RC patients. In multivariable CRMs, lower CSM (hazard ratio = 0.48; P < .001) and lower overall mortality (hazard ratio = 0.49; P < .001) rates were recorded in RC patients. LND status did not affect CSM-free survival (13 vs. 10 months; P = .1). Cubic splines-derived cutoff of ≥ 13 number of removed nodes showed better CSM-free survival (20 vs. 11 months; P = .02) and reduced CSM in CRMs (hazard ratio = 0.67; P = .02).Conclusion
Our study validates the survival benefit of RC in mUCB and highlights the importance of more extensive LND. These findings may corroborate the hypothesis of potential cytoreductive effect of surgery in the context of metastatic disease. 相似文献7.

Introduction
This phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the pan-cyclin–dependent kinase inhibitor roniciclib with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with extensive-disease SCLC.Methods
In this randomized, double-blind study, unselected patients with previously untreated extensive-disease SCLC received roniciclib, 5 mg, or placebo twice daily according to a 3 days–on, 4 days–off schedule in 21-day cycles, with concomitant cisplatin or carboplatin on day 1 and etoposide on days 1 to 3. The primary end point was progression-free survival. Other end points included overall survival, objective response rate, and safety.Results
A total of 140 patients received treatment: 70 with roniciclib plus chemotherapy and 70 with placebo plus chemotherapy. Median progression-free survival times was 4.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.2–5.5) with roniciclib plus chemotherapy and 5.5 months (95% CI: 4.6–5.6) with placebo plus chemotherapy (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.242, 95% CI: 0.820–1.881, p = 0.8653). Median overall survival times was 9.7 months (95% CI: 7.9–11.1) with roniciclib plus chemotherapy and 10.3 months (95% CI: 8.7–11.9) with placebo plus chemotherapy (HR = 1.281, 95% CI: 0.776–1.912, p = 0.7858). The objective response rates were 60.6% with roniciclib plus chemotherapy and 74.6% with placebo plus chemotherapy. Common treatment-emergent adverse events in both groups included nausea, vomiting, and fatigue. Serious treatment-emergent adverse events were more common with roniciclib plus chemotherapy (57.1%) than with placebo plus chemotherapy (38.6%).Conclusions
Roniciclib combined with chemotherapy demonstrated an unfavorable risk-benefit profile in patients with extensive-disease SCLC, and the study was prematurely terminated. 相似文献8.

Introduction
Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia is a rare subtype of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with poor outcomes in patients with non–Down syndrome. The reported outcomes have been poor, and the prognostic factors have not been clearly determined.Patients and Methods
To evaluate the prognostic significance of various cytogenetic abnormalities and minimal residual disease status determined by flow cytometry after induction I, we retrospectively analyzed the data of 80 patients with non–Down syndrome with a diagnosis of M7 AML treated at Children’s Cancer Hospital Egypt (CCHE-57357) from July 2007 through December 2016.Results
Of the 80 patients, 15 died during induction I and were excluded from the survival analysis. The overall survival, event-free survival, and cumulative incidence of relapse at 2 years was 52.6% ± 12.7%, 45.2% ± 12.3%, and 31.8% ± 11.5% respectively. Of the 90 patients, 61 had cytogenetic abnormalities, including trisomy 19,13q, trisomy 8, complex karyotype, t(1;22), KMT2A rearrangements, and trisomy 21. None of these had an effect on the outcomes. In addition, 34 patients had minimal residual disease < 0.1% after induction I, but the difference did not reach statistical significance. Patients with a delayed time to recovery (possibly due to myelofibrosis) had worse outcomes compared with those with early recovery (47% ± 19.2% vs. 63.2% ± 21.9%, respectively).Conclusion
Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia in patients with non–Down syndrome has a poor outcome with no clearly defined prognostic factors. However, future directions to risk stratify and tailor therapy should include assessment of the tumor biology according to the molecular pathways and study of the pathogenesis of myelofibrosis in this disease, which could affect the prognosis. 相似文献9.

Introduction
Major pathologic response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for NSCLC has been defined as 10% or less residual viable tumor without distinguishing between histologic types. We sought to investigate whether the optimal cutoff percentage of residual viable tumor for predicting survival differs between lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).Methods
Tumor slides from 272 patients treated with NAC and surgery for clinical stage II-III NSCLC (ADC, n = 192; SCC, n = 80) were reviewed. The optimal cutoff percentage of viable tumor for predicting lung cancer–specific cumulative incidence of death (LC-CID) was determined using maximally selected rank statistics. LC-CID was analyzed using a competing-risks approach. Overall survival was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox proportional hazard analysis.Results
Patients with SCC had a better response to NAC (median percentage of viable tumor: SCC versus ADC, 40% versus 60%; p = 0.027). Major pathologic response (≤10% viable tumor) was observed in 26% of SCC cases versus 12% of ADC cases (p = 0.004). The optimal cutoff percentage of viable tumor for LC-CID was 10% for SCC and 65% for ADC. On multivariable analysis, viable tumor 10% or less was an independent factor for better LC-CID (p = 0.035) in patients with SCC; in patients with ADC, viable tumor 65% or less was a factor for better LC-CID (p = 0.033) and overall survival (p = 0.050).Conclusions
In response to NAC, the optimal cutoff percentage of viable tumor for predicting survival differs between ADC and SCC. Our findings have implications for the pathologic assessment of resected specimens, especially in upcoming clinical trials design. 相似文献10.

Background
Metastases to the brain occur in 10%-16% of patients with breast cancer, with incidence reportedly increasing. Historically, brain metastases (BM) have been treated with whole-brain radiation therapy (WBRT), but stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is an increasingly favored treatment option. In this study we used a population-level database to compare patterns of care and survival between WBRT and SRS for BM from breast cancer.Materials and Methods
The National Cancer Database was used to select patients treated with radiation for BM from primary breast cancer. Groups were classified on the basis of the modality of radiation delivered to the brain and compared across several demographic factors. A Kaplan–Meier survival curve and Cox multivariate analysis were used to compare overall survival. A matched analysis using propensity scores was used to further reduce confounders and compare survival.Results
The treatment groups were significantly different across several socioeconomic variables including income, insurance status, and treatment setting. The percentage of patients who received SRS increased dramatically in the second half of the analyzed time period (P < .001). Unadjusted median survival was significantly longer for patients who received SRS versus those who received WBRT (P < .001). This finding persisted after propensity score-matching.Conclusion
Receipt of SRS was associated with different socioeconomic variables and longer overall survival compared with WBRT, highlighting the need for less toxic treatment for patients who are now living longer. The results revealed important socioeconomic differences between patients selected for SRS versus WBRT and emphasizes disparities in access to modern radiation techniques across the United States. 相似文献11.

Introduction
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a promising curative treatment for early-stage NSCLC. It is unclear if survival outcomes for SBRT are influenced by a lack of pathological confirmation of malignancy and staging of disease in these patients. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we assess survival outcomes after SBRT in studies with patients with clinically diagnosed versus biopsy-proven early-stage NSCLC.Methods
The main databases were searched for trials and cohort studies without restrictions to publication status or language. Two independent researchers performed the screening and selection of eligible studies. Outcomes were overall survival, cancer-specific survival, and disease-free survival. The inverse variance method and the random effects method for meta-analysis were used to assess pooled survival estimates.Results
A total of 11,195 nonduplicate records were identified by the original search strategy. After screening by title and abstract, 1051 potentially eligible records were identified. A total of 43 articles were included. The comparative studies showed lower 3-year overall survival and lower 2-year and 5-year cancer-specific survival for biopsy-proven disease compared to clinical disease. However, 5-year overall survival was the same for both groups. For the pooled estimates, 3-year disease-free survival and 2-year cancer-specific survival were lower for biopsied disease.Conclusions
Results of this systematic review and meta-analysis show a discrepancy in oncological outcomes for patients undergoing SBRT for suspected early-stage NSCLC in whom there is pathologic conformation of malignancy and those who there is only a clinical diagnose of NSCLC. These results emphasize the importance of obtaining pathologic proof of malignancy. 相似文献12.

Purpose
Emergent palliative radiation therapy (PRT) of symptomatic metastases can significantly increase the quality of life of patients with cancer. In some contexts, this treatment may be underused, but in others PRT may represent an excessively aggressive intervention. The characterization of the current use of emergent PRT is warranted for optimized value and patient-centered care.Methods and Materials
This study is a cross-sectional retrospective analysis of all emergent PRT courses at a single academic tertiary institution across 1 year.Results
A total of 214 patients received a total of 238 treatment courses. The most common indications were bone (39%) and brain (14%) metastases. Compared with outpatients, inpatients had lower mean survival rates (2 months vs 6 months; P < .001), higher rates of stopping treatment early (19.1% vs 9.0%; P = .034), and greater involvement of palliative care (44.8% vs 24.1%; P < .001), but the same mean planned fractions (9.10 vs 9.40 fractions; P = .669). In a multiple predictor survival analysis, palliative care involvement (P = .025), male sex (P = .001), ending treatment early (P = .011), and having 1 of 3 serious indications (airway compromise, leptomeningeal disease, and superior/inferior vena cava involvement; P = .007) were significantly associated with worse overall survival.Conclusions
Survival is particularly poor in patients who receive emergent PRT, and patient characteristics such as functional status and indication should be considered when determining fractionation schedule and dosing. A multi-institutional study of practice patterns and outcomes is warranted. 相似文献13.

Introduction
Immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of NSCLC, but little is known about the activity of programmed cell death 1 and programmed death ligand 1 blockade across age groups.Methods
We retrospectively evaluated patients with NSCLC who initiated programmed cell death 1 and programmed death ligand 1 inhibitors from January 2013 through July 2017. Medical records and radiographic imaging were reviewed to determine progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). We also compared immunotherapy-related toxicities, steroid use, and hospitalizations by age.Results
Of the 245 patients, 26.1% were younger than 60 years, 31.4% were age 60 to 69 years, 31.0% were age 70 to 79 years, and 11.4% were age 80 years or older. The median PFS times by age group were as follows: younger than 60 years, 1.81 months; age 60 to 69 years, 2.53 months; age 70 to 79 years, 3.75 months; and age 80 years or older, 1.64 months (log-rank p value = 0.055). The median OS times by age group were as follows: younger than 60 years, 13.01 months; age 60 to 69 years, 14.56 months; age 70 to 79 years, 12.92 months; and age 80 years or older, 3.62 months (log-rank p value = 0.011). Rates of immunotherapy-related toxicities, steroid use, and hospitalizations did not differ by age.Conclusions
Although the OS and PFS benefits of immunotherapy differ by age, the rates of toxicity are similar regardless of age. 相似文献14.

Background
Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is a potential predictive biomarker for immunotherapy in several malignancies. However, the expression level and clinical significance of PD-L1 in von Hippel–Lindau (VHL)-associated hereditary clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remain unclear.Patients and Methods
Surgical specimens were recruited from 129 patients with sporadic ccRCC and 26 patients with VHL-associated hereditary ccRCC. The PD-L1 expression level was assessed using immunohistochemistry. Correlations between PD-L1 expression and clinicopathological features were analyzed.Results
In sporadic ccRCC, the positive expression rate of PD-L1 was 47.3% (61/129). Positive PD-L1 expression was correlated with advanced tumor T stage (P = .011), higher Fuhrman nuclear grade (P = .022), poor disease-free survival (P = .037), and sex (P = .025). In the VHL-associated hereditary ccRCC, positive PD-L1 expression rate was 34.6% (9/26), lower than that in sporadic ccRCC. Positive PD-L1 was correlated with higher Fuhrman nuclear grade (P = .008), but not with sex, age, tumor stage, or the onset age of VHL-associated tumors.Conclusion
Positive PD-L1 expression was correlated with the aggressive clinicopathological features in sporadic and VHL-associated hereditary ccRCC. Whether PD-L1 expression level in ccRCC is related to the effectiveness of programmed death-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy needs to be further investigated. 相似文献15.
Purpose
To assess the pharmacologic costs of second-line treatments for metastatic renal-cell cancer (mRCC).Methods
The present evaluation was restricted to pivotal phase 3 randomized controlled trials in second-line for mRCC. We calculated the pharmacologic costs necessary to get the benefit in progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) for each trial. The costs of drugs are at the pharmacy of our hospital and are expressed in euros.Results
Our analysis evaluated 5 phase 3 randomized controlled trials including 3112 patients. The lowest cost per month of progression-free survival and OS gained was associated with the use of cabozantinib (€2006 and €1473, respectively), while everolimus had the highest cost per month of OS gained (€28,590).Conclusion
Combining pharmacologic costs of drugs with the measure of efficacy represented by OS, cabozantinib is a cost-effective second-line treatments for patients with mRCC. 相似文献16.

Introduction
Mutations in the KRAS gene are the most common driver oncogenes present in lung adenocarcinomas. We analyzed the largest multi-institutional database available containing patients with metastatic KRAS-mutant lung adenocarcinomas.Methods
The Lung Cancer Mutation Consortium (LCMC) is a multi-institutional collaboration to study the genomic characteristics of lung adenocarcinomas, treat them with genomically directed therapeutic approaches, and assess their outcomes. Since its inception in 2009, the LCMC has enrolled more than 1900 patients and has performed pretreatment, multiplexed, molecular characterization along with collecting clinical data. We evaluated the characteristics of patients with KRAS mutation in the LCMC and the association with overall survival.Results
Data from 1655 patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinomas were analyzed. Four hundred fifty (27%) patients had a KRAS mutation, 58% were female, 93% were smokers, and there was a median age of 65 years. Main KRAS subtypes were: G12C 39%; and G12D and G12V at 18% each. Among patients with KRAS mutation, G12D had a higher proportion of never-smokers (22%, p < 0.001). Patients with KRAS-mutant tumors had a trend toward shorter median survival compared to all others in the series (1.96 versus 2.22; P = 0.08) and lower 2-year survival rate (49% [95% confidence interval: 44%–54%] and 55% [95% confidence interval: 52%–58%], respectively).Conclusions
In the LCMC study, 27% of lung adenocarcinomas patients harbored a KRAS mutation and up to one-third of them had another oncogenic driver. Patients with both KRAS and STK11 mutations had a significantly inferior clinical outcome. 相似文献18.

Background
Brain metastases (BM) occur frequently in patients with metastatic kidney cancer and are a significant source of morbidity and mortality. Although historically associated with a poor prognosis, survival outcomes for patients in the modern era are incompletely characterized. In particular, outcomes after adjusting for systemic therapy administration and International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) risk factors are not well-known.Patients and Methods
A retrospective database of patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treated at University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center between 2006 and 2015 was created. Data relevant to their diagnosis, treatment course, and outcomes were systematically collected. Survival was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Patients with BM were compared with patients without BM after adjusting for the timing of BM diagnosis, either prior to or during first-line systemic therapy. The impact of stratification according to IMDC risk group was assessed.Results
A total of 56 (28.4%) of 268 patients with metastatic RCC were diagnosed with BM prior to or during first-line systemic therapy. Median overall survival (OS) for systemic therapy-naive patients with BM compared with matched patients without BM was 19.5 versus 28.7 months (P = .0117). When analyzed according to IMDC risk group, the median OS for patients with BM was similar for favorable- and intermediate-risk patients (not reached vs. not reached; and 29.0 vs. 36.7 months; P = .5254), and inferior for poor-risk patients (3.5 vs. 9.4 months; P = .0462). For patients developing BM while on first-line systemic therapy, survival from the time of progression did not significantly differ by presence or absence of BM (11.8 vs. 17.8 months; P = .6658).Conclusions
Survival rates for patients with BM are significantly better than historical reports. After adjusting for systemic therapy, the survival rates of patients with BM in favorable- and intermediate-risk groups were remarkably better than expected and not statistically different from patients without BM, though this represents a single institution experience, and numbers are modest. 相似文献19.

Background
The safety and efficacy of targeted therapy in older patients (≥ 70 years) with metastatic colorectal cancer is not well evaluated.Patients and Methods
Outcomes of older patients (including overall survival [OS], progression-free survival [PFS], toxicity, and quality of life [QoL]) were compared to young patients using data from 2 large previously reported clinical trials, CO.17 (cetuximab vs. best supportive care) and CO.20 (cetuximab plus placebo vs. cetuximab plus brivanib). Only patients with wild-type KRAS tumors were included.Results
A total of 251 (26.3%) of 955 patients were ≥ 70 years old. No significant differences in OS, PFS, or grade 3/4 adverse events were observed between older and younger patients treated with cetuximab (or cetuximab with placebo) in either trial. Younger patients trended toward superior OS in both CO.17 (hazard ratio = 1.80; P = .16) and CO.20 (hazard ratio = 1.34; P = .07). QoL maintenance favored younger patients in CO.17 (3.6 vs. 5.7 months; P = .046) but no difference of QoL maintenance was observed in the larger CO.20 trial (1.7 vs. 1.8 months; P = .64). Combination therapy of cetuximab and brivanib was significantly more toxic in older adults (87% vs. 77%; P = .03).Conclusion
OS, PFS, and toxicities were similar between older and younger patients with wild-type KRAS metastatic colorectal cancer when treated with cetuximab. Both age groups likely experience similar QoL maintenance with cetuximab. Dual targeted therapy was significantly more toxic in older patients. 相似文献20.
