Early Stage Cervical Cancer

Die minimalinvasive Chirurgie (MIC) ist mittlerweile das Standardverfahren bei frühem Zervixkarzinom (early stage cervical cancer, ECC). Die kürzlich veröffentlichte LACC-Studie zeigte jedoch ebenso wie andere Untersuchungen, dass die MIC in Hinblick auf das progressionsfreie Überleben (progression-free survival, PFS) und das Gesamtüberleben (overall survival, OS) gegenüber der offenen radikalen Hysterektomie unterlegen ist. Diese Ergebnisse lösten eine breite Debatte über die beste chirurgische Vorgehensweise bei ECC aus. Mit der vorliegenden Befragung sollten erste Erkenntnisse nach der Veröffentlichung gewonnen werden. Dazu führten die Nord-Ostdeutsche Gesellschaft für Gynäkologische Onkologie (NOGGO) und die Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynäkologische Endoskopie (AGE) eine bundesweite digitale Befragung unter 186 gynäkologischen Krebszentren durch. Mithilfe von SPSS wurden deskriptive statistische Kennzahlen ermittelt und t-Tests durchgeführt. Die meisten Zentren hatten eine hohe Expertise und/oder Erfahrung in der Behandlung von ECC und waren über die Ergebnisse der LACC-Studie sehr gut informiert. Die Qualität und die wissenschaftliche Bedeutung der Studie wurden als sehr gut/gut eingestuft. Trotzdem würden immer noch 40 % keine Umstellung der Standardbehandlung auf eine offene Operation vornehmen. Zentren mit höherem Fallvolumen, die zudem an klinischen Studien teilnahmen, waren eher bereit, die Behandlung umzustellen. Diese Befragung gibt Einblicke zu den überraschenden Ergebnissen der kürzlich veröffentlichten Studien zum chirurgischen Vorgehen bei ECC. Wie es scheint, ist die Notwendigkeit zukünftiger Studien und möglicher Erklärungen für die unerwartet schlechteren Outcomes in der MIC-Gruppe weiterhin hoch.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the impact of the evolving role of the addition of chemotherapy to postoperative radiotherapy on oncological outcomes and toxicity in patients with early-stage cervical cancer after radical hysterectomy.MethodsRetrospective cohort study of patients with stage IB1–IIB FIGO 2009 cervical cancer treated from November 1999 to May 2015 by primary surgery and radiotherapy (46–50.4 Gy in 1.8–2.0 Gy fractions) with or without concurrent cisplatin (40 mg/m2, 5–6 weekly cycles) with or without a brachytherapy boost. Chemotherapy was allocated depending on the risk factors for recurrence. Incidences of all outcomes were calculated using Kaplan–Meier’s methodology and compared by log-rank tests. Risk factors for recurrence and survival were identified using Cox’s proportional hazards models.ResultsA total of 154 patients were included, median follow-up was 9.6 years (IQR: 6.1–12.8). Five-year pelvic recurrence-free survival was 75.3%; 74.7% in patients with high-risk factors treated with radiotherapy; and 77.3% in those treated with chemoradiation (P=0.43). Distant metastasis-free survival at 5 years was 63.4%; 63.6% in high-risk patients after radiotherapy; and 57.1% after chemoradiation (P=0.36). Five-year overall survival was 63.9%: 66.8% and 51.6% after radiotherapy and after chemoradiation in patients with high-risk factors (P=0.37), respectively. Large tumor size was a risk factor for vaginal and pelvic recurrence, ≥2 involved lymph nodes was a significant risk factor for para-aortic recurrence and death. Mild treatment-related late toxicity was observed in 53.9% of the patients. Five-year severe (grade 3–5) late rectal, bladder, bowel, and vaginal toxicities were, respectively, 1.3%, 0%, 3.4%, and 0.9%. Any late severe toxicity was observed in 5.5% of patients treated with radiotherapy and in 15.3% of those treated with chemoradiation (P=0.07).ConclusionPostoperative (chemo)radiation for early-stage cervical cancer patients with risk factors for recurrence yields adequate pelvic tumor control, but overall survival is limited due to distant metastasis.

IntroductionRecently, the safety of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of cervical cancer has been questioned. This study was designed to compare the disease-free survival and overall survival of abdominal radical hysterectomy and laparoscopic radical hysterectomy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer.MethodsA total of 1065 patients with early-stage cervical cancer who had undergone abdominal/laparoscopic radical hysterectomy between January 2013 and December 2016 in seven hospitals were retrospectively analyzed. The 1:1 propensity score matching was performed in all patients. Patients with tumor size ≥2 cm and <2 cm were stratified and analyzed separately. Disease-free survival and overall survival were compared between matched groups. After confirming the normality by the Shapiro-Wilks test, the Mann-Whitney U test and the χ2 test were used for the comparison of continuous and categorical variables, respectively. The survival curves were generated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared by log-rank test.ResultsAfter matching, a total of 812 patients were included in the disease-free survival and overall survival analyses. In the entire cohort, the laparoscopic radical hysterectomy group had a significantly shorter disease-free survival (HR 1.65, 95% CI 1.00 to 2.73; p=0.048) but not overall survival (HR 1.60, 95% CI 0.89 to 2.88; p=0.12) when compared with the abdominal radical hysterectomy group. In patients with tumor size ≥2 cm, the laparoscopic radical hysterectomy group had a significantly shorter disease-free survival (HR 1.93, 95% CI 1.05 to 3.55; p=0.032) than the abdominal radical hysterectomy group, whereas no significant difference in overall survival (HR 1.90, 95% CI 0.95 to 3.83; p=0.10) was found. Additionally, in patients with tumor size <2 cm, the laparoscopic radical hysterectomy and abdominal radical hysterectomy groups had similar disease-free survival (HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.24 to 2.16; p=0.59) and overall survival (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.11 to 3.13; p=0.53).ConclusionLaparoscopic radical hysterectomy was associated with inferior disease-free survival compared with abdominal radical hysterectomy in the entire cohort, as well as in patients with tumor size ≥2 cm. For the surgical treatment of patients with early-stage cervical cancer, priority should be given to open abdominal radical hysterectomy.

BackgroundEarly stage cervical cancer is prevalent in China and remains a major public health burden in developing countries. We aimed to determine the long term oncologic outcomes between laparoscopic and abdominal radical hysterectomy in patients with early cervical cancer.MethodsWe conducted a multicenter, retrospective, case-control study of 37 hospitals. All consecutive early stage cervical cancer patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) 2009 stage IA1 with lymphovascular space invasion to IB1, who underwent laparoscopic or abdominal radical hysterectomy between January 2004 and December 2016, were included. We compared the disease free survival and overall survival of the two approaches in 1:1 case-control matched settings based on prognosis related factors.ResultsWe selected 8470 of 46 313 patients. After matching (n=1601/1601), we found that laparoscopic surgery was associated with significantly worse 5 year disease free survival (89.5% vs 93.1%, p=0.001; hazard ratio (HR) 1.60, p=0.001), but not 5 year overall survival (94.3% vs 96.0%, HR=1.48, p=0.058). In the subgroup analysis, in patients with a tumor diameter <2 cm (n=739/739), both 5 year disease free survival and overall survival were similar between the laparoscopic and abdominal radical hysterectomy groups. However, when tumor diameter was 2–4 cm (n=898/898), laparoscopic surgery was a poor prognosis risk factor for 5 year disease free survival (84.7% vs 90.8%, p=0.001; HR=1.81, p<0.001), but not 5 year overall survival (90.9% vs 93.8%, p=0.077; HR=1.53, p=0.059).ConclusionsIn patients with early cervical cancer, laparoscopic radical hysterectomy was associated with significantly poorer long term oncologic outcome, although in patients with tumors <2 cm, the 5 year overall survival and 5 year disease free survival were similar.

Lymphovascular Space Invasion

ObjectiveFew prognostic factors likely to influence therapeutic management of early-stage cervical cancer are currently recognized. The objective of this study was to determine the prognostic value of lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) in overall survival of patients with early-stage cervical cancer.MethodsThis is a retrospective study of patients treated for early-stage cervical cancer between January 1996 and December 2013 at Toulouse University Hospital and the Cancer Center Claudius Regaud Institute. Patients were included if they had FIGO 2018 stage IA1, IA2, IB1/2, or IIA1 cervical cancer. All patients had to have had surgery (conization, radical hysterectomy, or radical trachelectomy). The presence of LVSI was evaluated in the initial anatomic pathology reports of the excised tissue. The presence of LVSI was defined by the presence of epithelial tumor cells in the lumen of vessels, lined by endothelial cells. If the data were missing, the slides were reviewed by an expert pathologist. Comparative analyses of patient populations with and without LVSI invasion were performed, as well as analyses of overall and disease-free survival.ResultsA total of 158 patients were included in the analysis. Seventy-two (45.6%) patients had LVSI. More patients with LVSI received external radiotherapy in addition to standard treatment than patients without LVSI (53% vs 14%, p<0.0001). The overall survival of patients with LVSI (89.8%) was similar to that of patients without LVSI (91.5%) (p=0.39). For patients without lymph node involvement but with LVSI, disease-free survival at 5 years tended to be higher among those treated with external radiotherapy in addition to standard treatments (92.6% vs 79.8%, difference not tested due to the small number of events).ConclusionPatients with early-stage cervical cancer with LVSI received external radiotherapy more often, and therefore had an overall survival at 5 years identical to patients without LVSI.

Abstract Background Laparoscopy has been widely used for patients with early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer (eEOC). However, there is limited evidence regarding whether survival outcomes of laparoscopy are equivalent to those of laparotomy among patients with eEOC. The result of survival outcomes of laparoscopy is still controversial. The aim of this meta-analysis is to analyze the survival outcomes of laparoscopy versus laparotomy in the treatment of eEOC. Methods According to the keywords, Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Clinicaltrials.gov were searched for studies from January 1994 to January 2021. Studies comparing the efficacy and safety of laparoscopy versus laparotomy for patients with eEOC were assessed for eligibility. Only studies including outcomes of overall survival (OS) were enrolled. The meta-analysis was performed using Stata software (Version 12.0) and Review Manager (Version 5.2). Results A total of 6 retrospective non-random studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled results indicated that there was no difference between two approaches for patients with eEOC in OS (HR = 0.6, P = 0.446), progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 0.6, P = 0.137) and upstaging rate (OR = 1.18, P = 0.54). But the recurrence rate of laparoscopic surgery was lower than that of laparotomic surgery (OR = 0.48, P = 0.008). Conclusions Laparoscopy and laparotomy appear to provide comparable overall survival and progression-free survival outcomes for patients with eEOC. Further high-quality studies are needed to enhance this statement.

IntroductionRecent evidence has shown adverse oncological outcomes when minimally invasive surgery is used in early-stage cervical cancer. The objective of this study was to compare disease-free survival in patients that had undergone radical hysterectomy and pelvic lymphadenectomy, either by laparoscopy or laparotomy.MethodsWe performed a multicenter, retrospective cohort study of patients with cervical cancer stage IA1 with lymph-vascular invasion, IA2, and IB1 (FIGO 2009 classification), between January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2017, at seven cancer centers from six countries. We included squamous, adenocarcinoma, and adenosquamous histologies. We used an inverse probability of treatment weighting based on propensity score to construct a weighted cohort of women, including predictor variables selected a priori with the possibility of confounding the relationship between the surgical approach and survival. We estimated the HR for all-cause mortality after radical hysterectomy with weighted Cox proportional hazard models.ResultsA total of 1379 patients were included in the final analysis, with 681 (49.4%) operated by laparoscopy and 698 (50.6%) by laparotomy. There were no differences regarding the surgical approach in the rates of positive vaginal margins, deep stromal invasion, and lymphovascular space invasion. Median follow-up was 52.1 months (range, 0.8–201.2) in the laparoscopic group and 52.6 months (range, 0.4–166.6) in the laparotomy group. Women who underwent laparoscopic radical hysterectomy had a lower rate of disease-free survival compared with the laparotomy group (4-year rate, 88.7% vs 93.0%; HR for recurrence or death from cervical cancer 1.64; 95% CI 1.09–2.46; P=0.02). In sensitivity analyzes, after adjustment for adjuvant treatment, radical hysterectomy by laparoscopy compared with laparotomy was associated with increased hazards of recurrence or death from cervical cancer (HR 1.7; 95% CI 1.13 to 2.57; P=0.01) and death for any cause (HR 2.14; 95% CI 1.05–4.37; P=0.03).ConclusionIn this retrospective multicenter study, laparoscopy was associated with worse disease-free survival, compared to laparotomy.

ObjectiveThe standard of care for early cervical cancer is radical hysterectomy; however, consideration of pre-operative brachytherapy has been explored. We report our experience using pre-operative brachytherapy plus Wertheim-type hysterectomy to treat early stage cervical cancer.MethodsThis single-center study evaluated consecutive patients with histologically proven node-negative early stage cervical cancer (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics 2009 stage IB1–IIB) that was treated using pre-operative brachytherapy and hysterectomy. Pre-brachytherapy staging was performed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and pelvic lymph node assessment was performed using lymphadenectomy. The tumor and cervical tissues were treated using brachytherapy (total dose 60 Gy) followed by Wertheim-type hysterectomy. The study included patients from January 2000 to December 2013.ResultsA total of 80 patients completed a median follow-up of 6.7 years (range 5.4–8.5). The surgical specimens revealed a pathological complete response for 61 patients (76%). Patients with incomplete responses generally had less than 1 cm residual tumor at the cervix, and only one patient had lymphovascular space involvement. The estimated 5-year rates were 88% for overall survival (95% CI 78% to 94%) and 82% for disease-free survival (95% CI 71% to 89%). Toxicities were generally mild-to-moderate, including 26 cases (33%) of grade 2 late toxicity and 10 cases (13%) of grade 3 late toxicity. Univariate analyses revealed that poor disease-free survival was associated with overweight status (≥25 kg/m2, HR 3.05, 95% CI 1.20 to 7.76, p=0.019) and MRI tumor size >3 cm (HR 3.05, 95% CI 1.23 to 7.51, p=0.016).ConclusionsPre-operative brachytherapy followed by Wertheim-type hysterectomy may be safe and effective for early stage cervical cancer, although poorer outcomes were associated with overweight status and MRI tumor size >3 cm.
