Abstract
IMPORTANCE Although small intestinal adenocarcinomas (SIAs) are rare, they have a poor prognosis, and the optimal treatment strategies are largely unknown. Because of the lack of high-quality evidence, guidelines for colorectal cancer are often followed in the treatment of SIAs. OBJECTIVE To review the current evidence regarding survival benefit of systemic therapies, including chemotherapy, targeted agents, and immunotherapy, for patients with SIAs. DATA SOURCES Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses, MEDLINE and Embase were searched for articles published from January 1, 2005, until June 1, 2022. STUDY SELECTION Retrospective cohort studies and prospective phase 2 or 3 trials describing survival after systemic therapies for patients with SIAs were eligible for inclusion. Assessment of study eligibility was blinded and performed by 3 reviewers. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS The reviewers independently extracted data. Random effects, inverse variance, pairwise meta-analyses were performed. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with SIAs after systemic therapies. Measures of interest included hazard ratios for survival and median survival times. RESULTS Overall, 57 retrospective cohort and phase 2 studies of 35 176 patients were included. Adjuvant chemotherapy, generally fluoropyrimidine-based, was associated with increased OS in stage I to III SIAs (hazard ratio [HR], 0.60; 95% CI, 0.53-0.68), especially in stage III tumors (HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.48-0.64), irrespective of tumor localization. Palliative chemotherapy was also associated with an OS benefit (HR, 0.48; 95% CI, 0.40-0.58). Fluoropyrimidine-oxaliplatin combinations were superior to other regimens (OS: HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.30-0.99; PFS: HR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.30-0.71). Furthermore, bevacizumab added to chemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone was associated with significantly prolonged PFS (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.43-0.89). Immunotherapy showed a 50% overall response rate in previously treated defective mismatch repair tumors. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this systematic review and meta-analysis, adjuvant and palliative chemotherapy were both associated with improved survival of patients with SIAs, especially fluoropyrimidine-based regimens and fluoropyrimidine-oxaliplatin combinations. Adding bevacizumab to chemotherapy appears to prolong PFS and deserves further investigation. Immunotherapy seems beneficial and should be considered for patients with defective mismatch repair tumors. International collaborations should be undertaken to confirm and improve efficacy of systemic therapies for patients with SIAs.

Abstract
Primary intestinal malignancies account for only 1%-3% of all malignant gastrointestinal tumors. Adenocarcinomas are uncommonly located in the ileum. Ileal adenocarcinoma (IA) is rare and difficult to diagnose because of its location. IA is common in older men and rare in young pregnant women. A 23-year-old pregnant woman was hospitalized several times for repeated vomiting and abdominal pain. Her symptoms were relieved after symptomatic treatment. She exhibited no typical manifestations of intestinal obstruction, such as abdominal distension, difficulty passing gas and defecation. Unfortunately, she was misdiagnosed with acute gastroenteritis. On the second day after delivery, the patient stopped passing gas and computed tomography (CT) revealed an intestinal obstruction. She was treated as paralytic ileus. However, in view of failed conservative management, she was decided for an exploratory laparotomy. A malignant ileal tumor 5cm from the ileocecal valve was found incidentally and was surgically excised accompanied with End-to-side anastomosis of ileal and transverse colon. The operation lasted 195 minutes. Pathological examination revealed an IA. Pregnant woman who experience symptoms of intestinal obstruction should be alert to the possibility of malignancy in the small intestine. IA is an insidious tumor in pregnant women. An "IA triad" can be defined as refractory vomiting, vague abdominal pain, and weight loss (or inadequate weight gain in pregnant women). Pregnant women with an IA triad should undergo investigation with endoscopy or, if necessary, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of elderly small intestine adenocarcinoma using propensity score matching analysis: a study based on SEER database. Int J Colorectal Dis 2022; 37:2397-2407.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small intestine adenocarcinoma (SIA) is a scant disease that has no adequate clinical trials, so its prognostic factors are still unclear, especially in elderly patients. In this article, we aimed to explore the clinicopathology presentation, treatments, outcomes, and predictors of small intestine adenocarcinoma patients aged 65 years or older. METHODS We retrieved clinicopathology data of small intestine adenocarcinoma patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2015 from the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. We clarified patients into two groups: the surgery and the non-surgery group and conducted propensity score matching (PSM) to compare survival outcoming. We identified the prognostic indicators for cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) by the Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS In total, 1018 eligible cases were enrolled, with a median survival of 16 months; the 3-year OS and CSS rates were 36% and 41.7%, and the 5-year OS and CSS rates were 26.5% and 33.3%. Multivariate analyses revealed that age, grade, tumor stage, surgery, and chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors for OS, while grade, tumor stage, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy were independent factors for CSS. After PSM, only surgery and tumor stage (AJCC 6th) were independent prognostic factors for OS and CSS. CONCLUSION Surgery could bring benefit to survival for elderly SIA patients, and the early stage of the disease was another significant prognostic factor.

Abstract
Small bowel cancers are rare diseases whose prognosis is poorer than that of colon cancers. Due to disease rarity, there is little data on small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) treatment, and most recommendations come from expert agreements or analogies to the management of colon cancer. Although relatively high rates of local recurrence are observed for duodenal malignancies, distant metastatic relapse remains common and requires adjuvant systemic therapy. Given the similarities between SBA and colorectal cancer, radiotherapy and chemotherapy strategies used for the latter disease are frequently pursued for the former disease, specifically for tumors located in the duodenum. However, no previous randomized study has evaluated the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy on the overall survival of SBA patients. Most previous studies on treatment outcomes and prognostic factors in this context were based on large international databases, such as the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results or the National Cancer Database. Studies are required to establish and validate prognostic and predictive markers relevant in this context to inform the use of (neo) adjuvant treatment. Among those, deficient mismatch repair tumors represent 20% of SBAs, but their impact on chemosensitivity remains unknown. Herein, we summarize the current evidence on the management of localized SBA, including future perspectives.

Abstract
Background: Small intestine adenocarcinoma is a rare cancer. The current study aims to determine the outcomes of patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma in a Canadian province. Methods: This retrospective population-based cohort study assessed patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma who were diagnosed from 2008 to 2017 in Saskatchewan. A Cox proportional multivariate regression analysis was performed to determine the correlation between survival and exploratory factors. Results: 112 eligible patients with a median age of 73 years and M:F of 47:53 were identified. Overall, 75% had a comorbid illness, and 45% had a WHO performance status >1. Of the 112 patients, 51 (46%) had early-stage disease and 61 (54%) had advanced-stage disease. The median overall survival (mOS) was as follows: stage one, 59 months; stage two, 30 months; stage three, 20 months; and stage four, 3 months (p < 0.001). The median disease-free survival of patients with stage three disease who received adjuvant chemotherapy was 26 months (95% CI:23.1−28.9) vs. 4 months (0.0−9.1) with observation (p = 0.04). Patients who received chemotherapy for advanced disease had a mOS of 10 months (3.5−16.5) vs. 2 months (0.45−3.6) without chemotherapy (p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, stage four disease, hazard ratio (HR), 3.20 (1.84−5.40); WHO performance status >1, HR, 2.22 (1.42−3.45); lack of surgery, HR, 2.10 (1.25−3.50); and a neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio of >4.5, HR, 1.72 (1.10−2.71) were significantly correlated with inferior survival. Conclusions: Most patients with small intestine adenocarcinoma were diagnosed with advanced-stage disease. Advanced-stage disease, poor performance status, lack of surgery and a baseline neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio >4.5 were correlated with inferior survival.

Abstract
Background Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare malignancy that accounts for 3% of all gastrointestinal tumors. We evaluated the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and prognostic factors of primary SBAs. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes of 300 patients with SBA from three institutions in China between January 2003 and July 2020. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and it was statistically compared using the log-rank test. Single-variable and multivariate analyses were used to identify the significant correlates of OS. Results The primary tumor was on the duodenal papilla in 156 patients (52%), in the duodenum in 60 patients (20%), and in the jejunum-ileum in 84 patients (28%). The median OS of the entire cohort was 32.5 months (range, 0-213 months), with a 1-year OS rate of 78.0%. For jejunoileal adenocarcinoma, advanced age, advanced T stage, advanced N stage, more positive lymph nodes, distant metastasis, high carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio < 2.32 predicted worse survival on single-variable analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that advanced age, advanced tumor node metastases (TNM) stage, high CEA level, high alpha fetoprotein (AFP) level, and low prealbumin level were independent prognostic factors for non-ampullary SBA. The independent prognostic factors for duodenal papilla adenocarcinoma included TNM Stage III, nerve invasion, low platelet/lymphocyte ratio, and high CA19-9. Conclusion We found different independent prognostic factors for tumors at different locations. This finding warrants further investigation to ensure more effective management strategies for SBA.

Abstract
We aimed to explore factors associated with prognosis in patients with metastatic small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) as well as to develop and validate nomograms to predict overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Relevant information of patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2016 was extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Nomograms for predicting 1- and 3-year OS and CSS were established with potential risk factors screened from multivariate cox regression analysis. The discrimination and accuracy of the nomograms were assessed by concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, and the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). In total, 373 SBA patients with M1 category were enrolled. Multivariate analysis revealed that age, size and grade of primary tumor, primary tumor surgery, and chemotherapy were significant variables associated with OS and CSS. The C-index values of the nomogram for OS were 0.715 and 0.687 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. For CSS, it was 0.711 and 0.690, respectively. Through AUC, decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration plots, the nomograms displayed satisfactory prognostic predicted ability and clinical application both in the OS and CSS. Our models could be served as a reliable tool for prognostic evaluation of patients with metastatic SBA, which are favorable in facilitating individualized survival predictions and clinical decision-making.

Abstract
Background: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare gastrointestinal tumor with high malignancy. The aim of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the distant metastasis pattern and establish nomograms predicting survival for SBA. Methods: From 2010 to 2015, patients diagnosed with SBA were identified based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied to compare survival differences between metastasis patterns. Then, univariate and multivariate cox analyses were applied to screened out independent prognostic factors of cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS), and identify the risk factors for metastasis of SBA. To assess the discrimination and calibration of nomograms, the concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC), and decision curve analysis (DCA) were calculated. Results: Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that metastasis patterns were significantly correlated with CSS (p < 0.001) and OS (p < 0.001). Then, the metastasis pattern was showed to be an independent prognostic factor of OS and CSS in patients with SBA, as well as age, grade, T stage, N stage, surgery, retrieval of regional lymph nodes, and chemotherapy. Combining these factors, we constructed prognostic nomograms, which suggested that the metastasis pattern made the greatest contribution to the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for OS and CSS had a C-index of 0.787 and 0.793, respectively. Calibration curves showed an excellent agreement between probability and actual observation in the training and validation cohort. Decision curve analysis also exhibited its clinical value with an improved net benefit. In addition, the models we constructed had better prognostic accuracy and clinical utility than traditional TNM staging based on C-index and ROC. Further, Cox regression analysis showed that old age, poor differentiation, N2, and not receiving chemotherapy were the risk factors for prognosis in patients with metastatic SBA. Conclusion: As an independent prognostic factor, the metastasis pattern exhibited the greatest predictive effect on OS and CSS for patients with SBA. Adjuvant chemotherapy had a positive effect on the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for predicting 3-and 5-year OS and CSS of patients with SBA were constructed, which could identify patients with higher risk and might be superior in predicting the survival of patients with SBA than TNM staging.

Abstract
Background Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare gastrointestinal malignancy. There is no standard regimen for adjuvant chemotherapy for treating SBA. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with resectable SBA. Methods This retrospective study collected data from 148 eligible SBA patients who received radical resection at a single institution. The patients’ clinicopathological characteristics were reviewed and disease-free survival (DFS) time and overall survival time (OS) were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Results The patients had a median age of 57 years at the time of diagnosis. In most cases, the primary tumor was located in the duodenum (75.68%). Of the 55 patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy, 43 received the combined regimen and 12 received single agent chemotherapy. During the follow-up period, 87 patients (58.87%) relapsed. The median DFS and the median OS were 19 and 32 months for all patients, respectively. Stage, N-stage, adjuvant chemotherapy, and having more than one symptom at the time of diagnosis were factors associated with DFS and OS. The 43 patients who received combined adjuvant chemotherapy generally exhibited better DFS and OS at 3 and 5 years (DFS: 75.7% and 57.3%, respectively; OS: 75.7% and 62.5%, respectively) than the patients who did not receive the same treatment. The survival time was significantly improved in patients with initial CA19-9 of less than 300 µ/mL or CEA of less than 10 ng/mL. Multivariate analysis revealed N stage and combined adjuvant chemotherapy were independent factors for DFS. However, only combined adjuvant chemotherapy could prolong OS for patients who underwent radical resection. Conclusions In our study, both N stage and combined adjuvant chemotherapy are found to influence postoperative recurrence of SBA. Moreover, combined adjuvant chemotherapy is an independent prognostic factor of DFS and OS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a relatively rare cancer, often diagnosed in an advanced stage. In localized and resectable disease, surgery alone or in combination with adjuvant chemotherapy is the mainstay of treatment. In the recently published National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Practice guidelines, criteria for selecting patients with stage II small bowel adenocarcinoma to receive adjuvant chemotherapy are provided, and they are mainly extrapolated from studies on colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the present study, we aimed to verify whether mismatch repair deficiency phenotype, high-risk pathologic features (including T4, positive resection margins and a low number of lymph nodes harvested), as well as tumor histologic subtype, were associated with cancer-specific survival in 66 stage II non-ampullary small bowel adenocarcinoma patients, collected through the Small Bowel Cancer Italian Consortium. A central histopathology review was performed. Mismatch repair deficiency was tested by immunohistochemistry for MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2, and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction for microsatellite instability. RESULTS We identified mismatch repair deficiency, glandular/medullary histologic subtype, and celiac disease as significant predictors of favorable cancer-specific survival using univariable analysis with retained significance in bivariable models adjusted for pT stage. Among the high-risk features, only T4 showed a significant association with an increased risk of death; however, its prognostic value was not independent of mismatch repair status. CONCLUSIONS Mismatch repair protein expression, histologic subtype, association with celiac disease, and, in the mismatch repair proficient subset only, T stage, may help identify patients who may benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy.
