Abstract
Age significantly affects the prognosis of patients with rectal cancer after radical excision (RE), and local excision (LE) is an alternative surgical procedure to RE. To compare the survival prognosis in different age groups of LE versus RE for rectal cancer. Patients diagnosed with rectal adenocarcinoma treated by LE or RE from 2010 to 2017 were obtained from the SEER database. The primary outcomes are 5-year OS and CSS. A total of 11,170 patients were eventually included, and there were 490 patients in LE and RE groups, respectively, after 1:1 propensity score matching. The 5-year OS and CSS after LE were significantly better in < 50 years and 50-66 years groups than in > 66 years group (5-year OS: 95.70% vs 88.40% vs 67.00%, P < 0.001; 5-year CSS: 95.70% vs 96.30% vs 82.60%, P < 0.001). No statistical significance was found for the differences in 5-year OS and CSS between LE and RE in < 50, 50-66, and > 66 years group (P > 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed age > 66 years, poorly differentiated or undifferentiated (Grade III/IV), and tumor size 3 to 5 cm was independent risk factors for 5-year OS after LE; age > 66 years, perineural invasion, and tumor size 3 to 5 cm were the 5-year CSS independent risk factors for after LE. We found that the survival prognosis of younger rectal cancer patients treated with LE was significantly better than older (> 66 years) patients, and the survival prognosis of rectal cancer patients in the three age groups was similar between LE and RE.

Lawler T, Parlato L, Warren Andersen S. The histological and molecular characteristics of early-onset colorectal cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1349572. [PMID: 38737895 PMCID: PMC11082351 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1349572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC), defined as diagnosis before age 50, has increased in recent decades. Although more often diagnosed at advanced stage, associations with other histological and molecular markers that impact prognosis and treatment remain to be clarified. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis concerning the prevalence of prognostic and predictive tumor markers for early- vs. late-onset CRC, including oncogene mutations, microsatellite instability (MSI), and emerging markers including immune cells and the consensus molecular subtypes. Methods We systematically searched PubMed for original research articles published between April 2013-January 2024. Included studies compared the prevalence of tumor markers in early- vs. late-onset CRC. A meta-analysis was completed and summary odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were obtained from a random effects model via inverse variance weighting. A sensitivity analysis was completed to restrict the meta-analysis to studies that excluded individuals with Lynch syndrome, a hereditary condition that influences the distribution of tumor markers for early-onset CRC. Results In total, 149 articles were identified. Tumors from early-onset CRC are less likely to include mutations in KRAS (OR, 95% CI: 0.91, 0.85-0.98), BRAF (0.63, 0.51-0.78), APC (0.70, 0.58-0.84), and NRAS (0.88, 0.78-1.00) but more likely to include mutations in PTEN (1.68, 1.04-2.73) and TP53 (1.34, 1.24-1.45). After limiting to studies that excluded Lynch syndrome, the associations between early-onset CRC and BRAF (0.77, 0.64-0.92) and APC mutation (0.81, 0.67-0.97) were attenuated, while an inverse association with PIK3CA mutation was also observed (0.88, 0.78-0.99). Early-onset tumors are less likely to develop along the CpG Island Methylator Phenotype pathway (0.24, 0.10-0.57), but more likely to possess adverse histological features including high tumor grade (1.20, 1.15-1.25), and mucinous (1.22, 1.16-1.27) or signet ring histology (2.32, 2.08-2.57). A positive association with MSI status (1.31, 1.11-1.56) was also identified. Associations with immune markers and the consensus molecular subtypes are inconsistent. Discussion A lower prevalence of mutations in KRAS and BRAF is consistent with extended survival and superior response to targeted therapies for metastatic disease. Conversely, early-onset CRC is associated with aggressive histological subtypes and TP53 and PTEN mutations, which may serve as therapeutic targets.

Distinct clinical characteristics in stage III rectal cancer among different age groups and treatment outcomes after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. Ther Adv Med Oncol 2024; 16:17588359241229434. [PMID: 38347922 PMCID: PMC10860489 DOI: 10.1177/17588359241229434] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Background There is a rapidly increasing incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC) which threatens the survival of young people, while aging also represents a challenging clinical problem. Objectives We aimed to investigate the differences in the clinical characteristics and prognosis in stage III rectal cancer (RC), to help optimize treatment strategies. Design and methods This study included 757 patients with stage III RC, all of whom received neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and total mesorectal excision. The whole cohort was categorized as very early onset (VEO, ⩽30 years old), early onset (EO, >30 years old, ⩽50 years old), intermediate onset (IO, >50 years, ⩽70 years), or late onset (LO, >70 years old). Results There were more female VEO patients than males, more mucinous adenocarcinoma, signet-ring cell carcinoma, pre-treatment cT4 stage, and higher pre-treatment serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 compared with the other three groups. VEO patients had the worst survival with the highest RC-related mortality (34.5%), recurrence (13.8%), and metastasis (51.7%). LO patients had the highest non-RC-related mortality rate (16.6%). The Cox regression model showed VEO was a negative independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival [DFS, hazard ratio (HR): 2.830, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.633-4.904, p < 0.001], distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS, HR: 2.969, 95% CI: 1.720-5.127, p < 0.001), overall survival (OS, HR: 2.164, 95% CI: 1.102-4.249, p = 0.025), and cancer-specific survival (CSS, HR: 2.321, 95% CI: 1.145-4.705, p = 0.020). LO was a negative independent factor on DFS (HR: 1.800, 95% CI: 1.113-2.911, p = 0.017), DMFS (HR: 1.903, 95% CI: 1.150-3.149, p = 0.012), OS (HR: 2.856, 95% CI: 1.745-4.583, p < 0.001), and CSS (HR: 2.248, 95% CI: 1.282-3.942, p = 0.005). VEO patients had better survival in the total neoadjuvant therapy-like (TNT-like) pattern on DFS (p = 0.039). IO patients receiving TNT-like patterns had better survival on DFS, OS, and CSS (p = 0.006, p = 0.018, p = 0.006, respectively). Conclusion In stage III RC, VEO patients exhibited unique clinicopathological characteristics, with VEO a negative independent prognostic factor for DFS, DMFS, OS, and CSS. VEO and IO patients may benefit from a TNT-like treatment pattern.

Prev Med 2023; 177:107775. [PMID: 37951546 DOI: 10.1016/j.ypmed.2023.107775] [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: 08/05/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study provided estimates of cancer incidence rate and onset age by Socio-demographic Index (SDI) regions and gender from 2020 to 2040, aiming to clarify the long-term patterns of future cancer onset. METHOD Based on the incidence data from the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) 2019 study, we constructed the Bayesian age-period-cohort model to calculate the age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR) of cancers from 2020 to 2040. Using the average annual percentage change (AAPC) to quantify the trends of ASIR and the onset age. In addition, the incidences in 2019 were fixed to distinguish the age onset changes caused by demographic and incidence from 2020 to 2040. RESULTS Globally, two-thirds of cancers have escalating trends of incidence rate, and the proportion of cancer weighted average onset age above 60 years old will grow from 62% to 76% between 2020 and 2040. In five SDI regions, the proportion of weighted average onset age above 60 years old will rise above 10% in the next 20 years and increase sequentially with the rise of the SDI level. Preclude sex-specific cancers, the onset age is younger in men than in women in 2040. Rule out the influence of changing demographics, half of cancer's morbidity has a youth-oriented tendency globally, which is concentrated in hormone-related and digestive tract cancer. CONCLUSION From 2020 to 2040, the incidence and onset age changes demonstrate marked geographic and gender variations in the cancer spectrum. Cancer incidence and onset age are predicted to continuously increase worldwide in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence and mortality of early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC; < 50 years old) is increasing worldwide, with a high recurrence rate. The inherent heterogeneity of EOCRC makes its treatment challenging. Hence, to further understand the biology and reveal the molecular mechanisms of EOCRC, a recurrence risk signature is needed to guide clinical management. METHODS Based on the relative expression orderings (REOs) of genes in each sample, a prognostic signature was developed and validated utilizing multiple independent datasets. The underlying molecular mechanisms between distinct prognostic groups were explored via integrative analysis of multi-omics data. RESULTS The prognostic signature consisting of 6 gene pairs (6-GPS) could predict the recurrence risk for EOCRC at the individual level. High-risk EOCRC classified by 6-GPS showed a poor prognosis but a good response to adjuvant chemotherapy. Moreover, high-risk EOCRC was characterized by epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and enriched angiogenesis, and had higher mutation burden, immune cell infiltration, and PD-1/PD-L1 expression. Furthermore, we identified four genes associated with relapse-free survival in EOCRC, including SERPINE1, PECAM1, CDH1, and ANXA1. They were consistently differentially expressed at the transcriptome and proteome levels between high-risk and low-risk EOCRCs. They were also involved in regulating cancer progression and immune microenvironment in EOCRC. Notably, the expression of SERPINE1 and ANXA1 positively correlated with M2-like macrophage infiltration. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that 6-GPS can robustly predict the recurrence risk of EOCRC, and that SERPINE1, PECAM1, CDH1, and ANXA1 may serve as potential therapeutic targets. This study provides valuable information for the precision treatment of EOCRC.

Abstract
The incidence of rectal cancer (RC) is increasing in the population aged ≤ 49 (early-onset RC-EORC). EORC patients are more likely to present with locally advanced disease at diagnosis than late-onset RC (LORC; aged ≥ 50) patients. As a consequence, more EORC patients undergo neoadjuvant therapies. The response to treatment in EORC patients is still unknown. This study aims to explore the effect of age of onset on the pathological response to neoadjuvant therapies in sporadic locally advanced RC (LARC) patients. Based on an institutional prospectively maintained database, LARC patients undergoing neoadjuvant therapies and radical surgery between January 2010 and December 2022 were allocated to the EORC and LORC groups. The primary endpoint was the rate of incomplete response (Dworak 0-2). A total of 326 LORC and 79 EORC patients were included. Pre-neoadjuvant tumor features were comparable. A significantly higher rate of incomplete response was observed in EORC patients (49% vs. 35%; p = 0.028). From multivariable analysis, early age of onset, smoking and extramural invasion presented as independent risk factors for a worse response. This study demonstrates that an early age of onset is related to a worse response and calls for different multimodal strategies in this group of patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In recent years, the proportion of patients diagnosed with CRC at younger ages has increased. The clinicopathological features and oncological outcomes in younger patients with CRC remain controversial. We aimed to analyze the clinicopathological features and oncological outcomes in younger patients with CRC. METHODS We examined 980 patients who underwent surgery for primary colorectal adenocarcinoma between 2006 and 2020. Patients were divided into two cohorts: younger (< 40 years old) and older (≥ 40 years old). RESULTS Of the 980 patients, 26 (2.7%) were under the age of 40 years. The younger group had more advanced disease (57.7% vs. 36.6%, p = 0.031) and more cases beyond the transverse colon (84.6% vs. 65.3%, p = 0.029) than the older group. Adjuvant chemotherapy was administered more frequently in the younger group (50% vs. 25.8%, p < 0.01). Relapse-free survival and overall survival were similar between the groups at all stages. Moreover, in stages II and III they were also comparable, regardless of the administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS Younger patients with CRC have a prognosis equivalent to that of older patients. Further studies are needed to establish the optimal treatment strategies for these patients.

Xu C, Zhang F, Cheng W, Zhu Y. Prediction models for overall and cancer-specific survival in patients with metastatic early-onset colorectal cancer: a population-based study. Int J Colorectal Dis 2023; 38:99.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metastatic early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC) is on the rise, yet there is a dearth of predictive models for this disease. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a nomogram to aid in the early detection and management of metastatic colorectal cancer in young patients. METHODS We retrieved data from the SEER database on patients with metastatic colorectal cancer aged 50 or younger between 2010 and 2017. The data were randomly allocated in a 7:3 ratio to training and validation cohorts, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) at 1, 3, and 5 years. The nomograms were developed based on these factors, and their discriminatory and calibration capabilities were validated. Using the nomogram risk scores, patients were stratified into low-risk and high-risk groups. RESULTS The study included 2470 patients with metastatic EO-CRC. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis identified 12 independent risk factors that were included in the nomogram. The training cohort had a consistency index (C-index) of 0.71, while the validation cohort had a C-index of 0.70, demonstrating good predictive accuracy. Calibration plots showed a high level of consistency between the observed and predicted values, with overlapping plots along the diagonal. The decision curve analysis (DCA) revealed that the nomogram had a high clinical application value. CONCLUSIONS The novel nomograms were created to predict the prognosis of patients with metastatic EO-CRC, which can aid clinicians in developing more effective treatment strategies and contribute to more accurate prognostic assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients with early-onset colorectal cancer (eoCRC) are managed according to guidelines that are not age-specific. A multidisciplinary international group (DIRECt), composed of 69 experts, was convened to develop the first evidence-based consensus recommendations for eoCRC. METHODS After reviewing the published literature, a Delphi methodology was used to draft and respond to clinically relevant questions. Each statement underwent 3 rounds of voting and reached a consensus level of agreement of ≥80%. RESULTS The DIRECt group produced 31 statements in 7 areas of interest: diagnosis, risk factors, genetics, pathology-oncology, endoscopy, therapy, and supportive care. There was strong consensus that all individuals younger than 50 should undergo CRC risk stratification and prompt symptom assessment. All newly diagnosed eoCRC patients should receive germline genetic testing, ideally before surgery. On the basis of current evidence, endoscopic, surgical, and oncologic treatment of eoCRC should not differ from later-onset CRC, except for individuals with pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variants. The evidence on chemotherapy is not sufficient to recommend changes to established therapeutic protocols. Fertility preservation and sexual health are important to address in eoCRC survivors. The DIRECt group highlighted areas with knowledge gaps that should be prioritized in future research efforts, including age at first screening for the general population, use of fecal immunochemical tests, chemotherapy, endoscopic therapy, and post-treatment surveillance for eoCRC patients. CONCLUSIONS The DIRECt group produced the first consensus recommendations on eoCRC. All statements should be considered together with the accompanying comments and literature reviews. We highlighted areas where research should be prioritized. These guidelines represent a useful tool for clinicians caring for patients with eoCRC.

Different Oncologic Outcomes in Early-Onset and Late-Onset Sporadic Colorectal Cancer: A Regression Analysis on 2073 Patients. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14246239. [PMID: 36551724 PMCID: PMC9777335 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14246239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 12/10/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) is increasing in the population aged ≤ 49 (early-onset CRC-EOCRC). Recent studies highlighted the biological and clinical differences between EOCRC and late-onset CRC (LOCRC-age ≥ 50), while comparative results about long-term survival are still debated. This study aimed to investigate whether age of onset may impact on oncologic outcomes in a surgical population of sporadic CRC patients. Patients operated on for sporadic CRC from January 2010 to January 2022 were allocated to the EOCRC and LOCRC groups. The primary endpoint was the recurrence/progression-free survival (R/PFS). A total of 423 EOCRC and 1650 LOCRC was included. EOCRC had a worse R/PFS (p < 0.0001) and cancer specific survival (p < 0.0001) compared with LOCRC. At Cox regression analysis, age of onset, tumoral stage, signet ring cells, extramural/lymphovascular/perineural veins invasion, and neoadjuvant therapy were independent risk factors for R/P. The analysis by tumoral stage showed an increased incidence of recurrence in stage I EOCRC (p = 0.014), and early age of onset was an independent predictor for recurrence (p = 0.035). Early age of onset was an independent predictor for worse prognosis, this effect was stronger in stage I patients suggesting a potentially—and still unknown—more aggressive tumoral phenotype in EOCRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset colon cancers are increasing and the independent influence of age on prognosis and therapeutic efficacy of adjuvant therapy is unclear. The primary aim of the present study was to determine if young age was an independent prognostic factor for survival. Secondarily, age would be used in the context of known factors that predict benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy in stages II and III. METHODS Retrospective, single centre study of operated, non-metastatic colon cancer (> 15 cm from anal verge) without pre-operative therapy. Early onset cancers were defined as age ≤ 45 years. Primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS Six-hundred thirty-three patients were included with 206 (32.5%) early-onset cancers. With a median follow-up of 48 months, 5-year DFS was 79.5% and 76.2% for early and late-onset cancers, respectively (p - 0.585). In multivariate analysis, only tumour sidedness, family history, T4 stage, node positivity and microsatellite instability status influenced DFS and not the age of onset (HR - 0.969; 95% - 0.63-1.49). These results were consistent with different models and with stage-wise distribution. CONCLUSIONS Early-onset colon cancers treated with curative intent had survivals similar to older cohorts. Age was not an independent prognostic factor for recurrences. Age did not influence disease-free survival when stage-wise predictive variables for therapeutic benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy were considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence and outcomes of adults with early-onset (20 to 34 y) diagnosis of well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms. METHODS Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER)-18 database was accessed, and patients with well-differentiated lung or digestive tract neuroendocrine neoplasms diagnosed 2000 to 2018 were reviewed. Annual percent changes (APCs) were calculated for the 3 disease subsites (foregut, midgut, and hindgut) stratified by age group. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates/log-rank testing were used to examine differences in overall survival between the 3 age groups. Multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to evaluate factors affecting overall and cancer-specific survivals. RESULTS Throughout the study period, patients with early-onset disease (20 to 34 y) have experienced the greatest APC (20 to 34 y: 9.7; 35 to 49 y: 5.4; ≥50 y: 4.1). When APCs were stratified by disease subsite, this difference in APCs appears to be driven by midgut tumors (20 to 34 y: 19.2; 35 to 49: 8.4; ≥50 y: 3.8). Using multivariable Cox regression modeling, the following variables were associated with a higher risk of all-cause death (worse overall survival): male sex (hazard ratio [HR] 1.27; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.22-1.31), African American race (HR vs. white race: 1.20; 95% CI: 1.15-1.26), nonhindgut primary (HR foregut vs. hindgut primary: 2.02; 95% CI: 1.91-2.13; HR midgut vs. hindgut primary: 2.09; 95% CI: 1.95-2.24), distant disease (HR vs. regional disease: 2.06; 95% CI: 1.96-2.18), no surgery to the primary (HR: 2.34; 95% CI: 2.24-2.46), and older age (HR: 5.80; 95% CI: 4.87-6.91). CONCLUSION Cases of early-onset well-differentiated neuroendocrine neoplasms have disproportionately increased over the past 2 decades (compared with other age groups), and this appears to have been driven mainly by midgut tumors.

Abstract
Simple Summary In this cross-sectional study, the global incidence, death, and DALY rates of early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC) increased from 1990 to 2019, with large variations in the regional and national levels. A low-milk or low-calcium diet and alcohol use were the leading possible risk factors in 2019. The importance of high body mass index and high fasting plasma glucose increased among both males and females from 1990 to 2019, while the importance of smoking and a low-fiber diet decreased among both sexes, but especially among females. These findings provide policymakers with an accurate quantification of the burden of early-onset CRC, and may help to identify and target high-risk individuals to mitigate the burden of early-onset CRC. Abstract Background: The incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosed before age 50 has been increasing over the past decades. Hence, we examined the global, regional, and national burden of early-onset CRC and its risk factors from 1990 to 2019. Methods: Using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2019, we reported the incidence, deaths, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) attributable to the risk factors of early-onset CRC. All estimates were reported with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). Results: The global numbers of early-onset CRC for incidence, deaths, and DALYs in 2019 were 225,736 (95% UI, 207,658 to 246,756), 86,545 (80,162 to 93,431), and 4,259,922 (3,942,849 to 4,590,979), respectively. Despite large variations at the regional and national levels, the global incidence rate, death rate, and DALY rate increased from 1990 to 2019. Diets low in milk, diets low in calcium, and alcohol use were the leading risk factors in 2019. From 1990 to 2019, a high body mass index and high fasting plasma glucose ranked remarkably higher among males and females, while smoking and diets low in fiber ranked lower among both sexes, with a more profound change among females. Conclusions: Despite large variations in regional and national levels, the global incidence rate, death rate, and DALY rate increased during the past three decades. These findings may provide policymakers with an accurate quantification of the burden of early-onset CRC and targeted identification of those most at risk to mitigate the burden of early-onset CRC.
