Does Time-to-Chemotherapy after Primary Complete Macroscopic Cytoreductive Surgery Influence Prognosis for Patients with Epithelial Ovarian Cancer? A Study of the FRANCOGYN Group. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10051058. [PMID: 33806443 PMCID: PMC7961531 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10051058] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2021] [Revised: 02/16/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
To determine if the time-to-chemotherapy (TTC) after primary macroscopic complete cytoreductive surgery (CRS) influences recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We conducted an observational multicenter retrospective cohort analysis of women with EOC treated from September 2006 to November 2016 in nine institutions in France (FRANCOGYN research group) with maintained EOC databases. We included women with EOC (all FIGO stages) who underwent primary complete macroscopic CRS prior to platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Two hundred thirty-three patients were included: 73 (31.3%) in the early-stage group (ESG) (FIGO I-II), and 160 (68.7%) in the advanced-stage group (ASG) (FIGO III-IV). Median TTC was 43 days (36–56). The median OS was 77.2 months (65.9–106.6). OS was lower in the ASG when TTC exceeded 8 weeks (70.5 vs. 59.3 months, p = 0.04). No impact on OS was found when TTC was below or above 6 weeks (78.5 and 66.8 months, respectively, p = 0.25). In the whole population, TTC had no impact on RFS or OS. None of the factors studied were associated with an increase in TTC. Chemotherapy should be initiated as soon as possible after CRS. A TTC greater than 8 weeks is associated with poorer OS in patients with advanced stage EOC.

Abstract
The development of guidelines is one of the core activities of the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) and European Society of Gynaecologial Oncology (ESGO), as part of the mission of both societies to improve the quality of care for patients with cancer across Europe. ESMO and ESGO jointly developed clinically relevant and evidence-based recommendations in several selected areas in order to improve the quality of care for women with ovarian cancer. The ESMO-ESGO consensus conference on ovarian cancer was held on April 12-14, 2018 in Milan, Italy, and comprised a multidisciplinary panel of 40 leading experts in the management of ovarian cancer. Before the conference, the expert panel worked on five clinically relevant questions regarding ovarian cancer relating to each of the following four areas: pathology and molecular biology, early-stage and borderline tumours, advanced stage disease and recurrent disease. Relevant scientific literature, as identified using a systematic search, was reviewed in advance. During the consensus conference, the panel developed recommendations for each specific question and a consensus was reached. The recommendations presented here are thus based on the best available evidence and expert agreement. This article presents the recommendations of this ESMO-ESGO consensus conference, together with a summary of evidence supporting each recommendation.

Abstract
Debulking surgery is the key step of advanced stage ovarian cancer treatment with chemotherapy. The quality of surgical resection is the main prognosis factor, thus a complete resection must be achieved (grade A) in an expert center (grade B). Surgery for stage IV is possible and has a benefit in case of complete peritoneal resection (LoE3). Pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomies are recommended in case of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes (grade B). In absence of clinical or radiological suspicious lymph nodes and in case of complete peritoneal resection during initial debulking surgery, lymphadenectomy can be omitted because it won't change nor medical treatment nor overall survival (grade B). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy can be proposed in case of: impossibility to perform initial complete surgical resection (grade B) ; alteration of general state or co-morbidities or elderly patient (in order to decrease morbidity and increase quality of life) (grade B); stage IV with multiple intra-hepatic or pulmonary metastasis or important ascites with miliary (grade B). In case of stage III or IV ovarian cancer diagnosed on a biopsy during prior laparotomy, a neoadjuvant chemotherapy and interval debulking surgery should be preferred (gradeC). In case of palliative surgery or peroperative impossibility to perform a complete resection, no data regarding the type of surgery to perform influencing survival or quality of life is available. Peritoneal carcinosis description before resection and residual disease at the end of the surgery should be reported (size, location and reason of non-extirpability) (grade B). A score of peritoneal carcinosis such as Peritoneal Carcinosis Index (PCI) should be used in order to objectively evaluate the tumoral burden (gradeC). A standardized operative report is recommended (gradeC).

Interval between debulking surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with overall survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Gynecol Oncol 2018; 150:446-450. [PMID: 30001834 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2018.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2018] [Revised: 06/27/2018] [Accepted: 07/02/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Treatment for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) consists of debulking surgery and (neo)adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the time from surgery to adjuvant chemotherapy (TTC) was associated with clinical outcome. METHODS We identified all Dutch patients who received optimal or complete debulking surgery for primary EOC (FIGO IIb-IV) between 2008 and 2015 from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. TTC was divided into three groups based on the interquartile range (IQR). Early (<25%) and prolonged (>75%) TTC were compared to intermediate TTC (25-75%). Logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with a prolonged TTC and multivariable Cox regression to evaluate the independent effect of treatment interval on overall survival (OS). Patients receiving primary debulking surgery (PDS) and patients receiving interval debulking surgery (IDS) were analyzed separately. RESULTS 4097 patients were included, 1612 underwent PDS and 2485 IDS. Median TTC was 29 days (IQR 24-37). Age ≥ 65, complete debulking surgery, postoperative complications, and hospitalization ≥10 days were independently associated with a longer TTC for both PDS and IDS. TTC in the longest quartile was associated with poor OS after both PDS (Hazard Rate (HR) 1.43, 95% CI 1.09-1.88) and NACT-IDS (HR 1.22 (1.02-1.47)) when compared to the intermediate TTC, but only in patients with no macroscopic residual disease after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Our study provides evidence that delayed initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy is an independent prognostic factor for worse overall survival after complete (interval)debulking surgery. We advise to start adjuvant chemotherapy within five to six weeks after debulking surgery.

Does Time-to-Chemotherapy Impact the Outcomes of Resected Ovarian Cancer? Meta-analysis of Randomized and Observational Data. Int J Gynecol Cancer 2017; 27:274-280.

Abstract
ObjectivesThis study is a meta-analysis of prior publications evaluating the impact of time-to-chemotherapy (TTC) on disease recurrence and survival 3 years after the original surgery.MethodsWe performed a meta-analysis of studies published in PubMed (1950–2016) as of April 2016. Inclusion criteria were as follows: randomized controlled trials and prospective or retrospective cohorts that included patients with ovarian cancer who had undergone surgery with curative intent and use of adjuvant chemotherapy. We compared rates of disease recurrence and death according to the TTC (“early” vs “delayed”) using a random-effects model and performed a metaregression to evaluate the impact of covariates on these outcomes.ResultsOf 239 abstracts in the original search, 12 were considered eligible. The cutoffs used for TTC were between 20 and 40 days. All studies used a platinum-based chemotherapy, and the rates of patients with suboptimal resection varied from 33% to 70%. A longer TTC was not associated with higher rates of disease recurrence (odds ratio, 0.89; 95% confidence interval, 0.63–1.24) or death at 3 years (odds ratio, 1.06; 95% confidence interval, 0.9–1.24). There was no evidence of significant publication bias (Egger test P = 0.472), but data were heterogeneous (I2 = 64.3%). Metaregression showed that the percentage of patients with suboptimal surgery and values used as cutoff to define “delayed” chemotherapy combined were a significant source of bias (residual I2 = 0%).ConclusionsIn our analysis, TTC after surgery for ovarian cancer with curative intent was not associated with higher risk of disease recurrence or death. However, this association was influenced by the rate of optimal debulking and definition of “late” initiation of chemotherapy, so we must be careful when applying these data to patients with complete resection.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the association of chemotherapy delay with overall survival (OS) and investigate predictors of delay among a population-representative American ovarian cancer cohort. METHODS An observational retrospective cohort analysis of women with ovarian cancer who received National Comprehensive Cancer Network guideline-consistent care was performed with the 1998-2011 National Cancer Data Base. Chemotherapy delay was defined as initiation of multiagent chemotherapy >28days from primary debulking surgery. Associations of patient and disease characteristics with chemotherapy delay were tested with multivariate logistic regression. Survival analyses for women diagnosed from 2003 to 2006 approximated a 21-daycycle intravenous platinum-taxane chemotherapy cohort. Overall survival was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analyses and Cox proportional-hazards regressions, with sensitivity analyses using matched cohorts. RESULTS 58.1% (26,149/45,001) of women experienced chemotherapy delay. Race, insurance status, cancer center type, and community median income were significantly associated with chemotherapy delay (P<0.001). Odds for chemotherapy delay were higher for older or sicker women, women with endometrioid or mucinous histology, lower stage or grade disease, and uninsured or low-income women (P<0.05). Chemotherapy delay >35days from surgery was associated with a 7% (95% confidence interval, 2-13%) increased hazard of death (P=0.01). Relative hazard of death was lowest between 25 and 29days after surgery but was not significantly different within the longer two-week interval from 21 to 35days. CONCLUSION A survival benefit may be achieved by consistently starting chemotherapy between 21 and 35days from primary debulking surgery. Women at higher risk for chemotherapy delay may be targeted for close follow-up.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the association between timing of adjuvant therapy initiation and survival of early stage ovarian cancer patients. METHODS Data were obtained from women who underwent primary surgical staging followed by adjuvant therapy from two Gynecologic Oncology Group trials (protocols # 95 and 157). Kaplan-Meier estimates and Cox proportional hazards model adjusted for covariates were used for analyses. RESULTS Of 497 stage I-II epithelial ovarian cancer patients, the median time between surgery and initiation of adjuvant therapy was 23days (25th-75th%: 12-33days). The time interval from surgery to initiation of adjuvant therapy was categorized into three groups: <2weeks, 2-4weeks, and >4weeks. The corresponding 5-year recurrence-free survival rates were 72.8%, 73.9%, and 79.5% (p=0.62). The 5-year overall survival rates were 79.4%, 81.9%, and 82.8%, respectively (p=0.51; p=0.33 - global test). As compared to <2weeks, the hazard ratio for recurrence-free survival was 0.90 (95%CI=0.59-1.37) for 2-4weeks and 0.72 (95%CI=0.46-1.13) for >4weeks. Age, stage, grade, and cytology were important prognostic factors. CONCLUSIONS Timing of adjuvant therapy initiation was not associated with survival in early stage epithelial ovarian cancer patients.

PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a post-trial ad hoc analysis of Gynecologic Oncology Group protocol 218, a phase III randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial designed to study the antiangiogenesis agent, bevacizumab, in primary and maintenance therapy for patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian carcinoma. Maximum attempt at debulking was an eligibility criterion. Stage III patients, not stage IV, were required to have gross macroscopic or palpable residual disease following surgery. The survival impact of time from surgery to initiation of chemotherapy was studied using Cox regression models and stratified by treatment arm, residual disease and other clinical and pathologic factors. RESULTS One thousand seven hundred eighteen assessable patients were randomized (stage III (n = 1237); stage IV (n = 477), including those with complete resection (stage IV only, n = 81), low-volume residual (≤1 cm, n = 701), and suboptimal (>1 cm, n = 932). On multivariate analysis, time to chemotherapy initiation was predictive of overall survival (P < 0.001), with the complete resection group (i.e. stage IV) encountering an increased risk of death when time to initiation of chemotherapy exceeded 25 days (95% confidence interval 16.6-49.9 days). CONCLUSION Survival for women with advanced ovarian cancer may be adversely affected when initiation of chemotherapy occurs >25 days following surgery. Our analysis applies to stage IV only as women with stage III who underwent complete resection were not eligible for this trial. These results, however, are consistent with Gompertzian first-order kinetics where patients with microscopic residual are most vulnerable. CLINICAL TRIALS IDENTIFIER NCT00262847.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the morbidity of diaphragmatic peritonectomy. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING A Gynecology Department of a University Hospital. POPULATION From 2005 to 2007, thirty-seven consecutive patients underwent surgery for stage IIIC or IV ovarian cancer. METHODS Patients were separated into a diaphragmatic surgery group (n = 18) and a control group (n = 19). Diaphragmatic surgery may consist of coagulation, stripping or muscle resection. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Postoperative course and outcome were analysed. RESULTS Patients in group 1 (diaphragmatic surgery) underwent more intestinal resection (89% versus 37%, P = 0.01) and pelvic (94% versus 63%, P = 0.02) or para-aortic lymphadenectomy (94% versus 53%, P = 0.04). Neither the mean estimated blood loss (960 ml versus 909 ml) nor the rates of intra-operative blood transfusion (11 versus 9) were significantly different between the two groups. The mean operative time was higher in group 1 (480 minutes versus 316 minutes, P < 0.05). There were thirteen postoperative complications in group 1 and eight in group 2 (P = 0.065). In group 1, the main complication was pleural effusion (seven cases): four patients required secondary pleural drainage, two required only pleural puncture and one had both procedures. There were more complete cytoreduction in group 1 than in group 2 (89% versus 63%, P = 0.068). CONCLUSIONS Diaphragm peritonectomies and resections are an effective way to cytoreduce diaphragm carcinomatosis and increase the rate of optimal debulking surgery. Such procedures frequently result in pleural effusion, but with no long-term morbidity.
