e14131 Background: To evaluate retrospectively long-term survival of 594 patients with colorectal liver metastases treated with MR-guided laser-induced thermotherapy (LITT) depending on different factors. Methods: 594 patients with liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma treated with MR-guided LITT between 01/99 and 12/10 were included. For survival analysis tumor localization, TNM classification, number of metastases, diameter and volume of metastases and necrosis, lobular spread, number of treatment sessions, performance of adjuvant chemotherapy and transarterial chemoembolisation were considered. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to conduct this survival analysis. Results: Log-rank test showed statistically significant differences between survival curves, multivariate Cox-regression-analysis (p<0.05) showed prognostic factors regarding overall survival like number of metastases pre intervention, adjuvant chemotherapy, diameter of metastases, ratio of volumes of necrosis and metastases, and affected lymph nodes. Median overall survival rate at the time of first LITT was 25 months, 1-year survival: 78%, 2-year survival: 50.1%, 3-year survival: 28%; 4-year survival: 16.4%; 5-year survival: 7.8%. Numbers of metastases pre intervention: 1-2 metastases with a median survival rate of 60 months; 3-4 metastases: 45 months; ≥5 metastases: 42 months. Median survival rate for metastases <20mm in diameter 36 months; 20-30mm 27 months, 30-40mm 24 months and >40mm 21 months. Affected lymph nodes: median survival rate for patients with N0-classification 30 months, N1-classification 24 months; N2/N3/N4-classification 22 months. Conclusions: Multivariate Cox regression model provided the minimal number of significant variables with the maximal prognostic value concerning overall survival for MR-guided LITT, i.e., diameter and number of metastases and primary classification of lymph nodes.

Background: Treatment options for advanced gastric esophageal cancer are quite limited. Chemotherapy is unavoidable at certain stages, and research on targeted therapies has mostly failed. The advent of immunotherapy has brought hope for the treatment of advanced gastric esophageal cancer. The aim of the study was to analyze the safety of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy and the long-term survival of patients who were diagnosed as gastric esophageal cancer and received anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. Method: Studies on anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy of advanced gastric esophageal cancer published before February 1, 2020 were searched online. The survival (e.g. 6-month overall survival, 12-month overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rates (ORR)) and adverse effects of immunotherapy were compared to that of control therapy (physician’s choice of therapy). Results: After screening 185 studies, 4 comparative cohort studies which reported the long-term survival of patients receiving immunotherapy were included. Compared to control group, the 12-month survival (OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.31 to 2.12, P < 0.0001) and 18-month survival (OR = 1.98, 95% CI: 1.39 to 2.81, P = 0.0001) were significantly longer in immunotherapy group. The 3-month survival rate (OR = 1.05, 95% CI: 0.36 to 3.06, P = 0.92) and 18-month survival rate (OR = 1.44, 95% CI: 0.98 to 2.12, P = 0.07) were not significantly different between immunotherapy group and control group. The ORR were not significantly different between immunotherapy group and control group (OR = 1.54, 95% CI: 0.65 to 3.66, P = 0.01). Meta-analysis pointed out that in the PD-L1 CPS ≥10 sub group population, the immunotherapy could obviously benefit the patients in tumor response rates (OR = 3.80, 95% CI: 1.89 to 7.61, P = 0.0002). Conclusion: For the treatment of advanced gastric esophageal cancer, the therapeutic efficacy of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy was superior to that of chemotherapy or palliative care.

Objectives. To investigate the prognostic impact of the number of dissected lymph nodes (LNs) in gastric cancer after curative distal gastrectomy.Methods. The survival of 634 patients who underwent curative distal gastrectomy from 1995 to 2004 was retrieved. Long-term surgical outcomes and associations between the number of dissected LNs and the 5-year survival rate were investigated.Results. The number of dissected LNs was one of the most important prognostic indicators. Among patients with comparable T category, the larger the number of dissected LNs was, the better the survival would be (). The linear regression showed that a significant survival improvement based on increasing retrieved LNs for stage II, III and IV (). A cut-point analysis yields the greatest variance of survival rate difference at the levels of 15 LNs (stage I), 25 LNs (stage II) and 30 LNs (stage III).Conclusion. The number of dissected LNs is an independent prognostic factor for gastric cancer. To improve the long-term survival of patients with gastric cancer, removing at least 15 LNs for stage I, 25 LNs for stage II, and 30 LNs for stage III patients during curative distal gastrectomy is recommended.

Background The survival rate of patients undergoing hemodialysis and other renal replacement therapies has been extensively studied, but comparative studies of emergency and scheduled hemodialysis are limited. Methods This study included 312 patients who underwent emergency hemodialysis and 274 who received scheduled hemodialysis. We investigated the prognostic differences between these two groups of patients, including the short-term and long-term survival rates. Results The overall survival rate was significantly better among the patients in the scheduled hemodialysis group than emergency hemodialysis group. The mortality rate within 3 months of emergency hemodialysis was 4.8%, while that within 3 months of scheduled hemodialysis was 1.1%. Conclusions Significant differences were present between emergency and scheduled hemodialysis, especially the levels of serum creatinine and hemoglobin.

390 Background: Peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer is relatively common (17%) and is associated with poor survival. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is still controversially discussed, as it has proven an increase in median survival in selected patients, but only a small subgroup reached long-term survival. The aim of this study was to collect and analyze a worldwide cohort of patients treated with CRS and HIPEC with long-term survival in order to explore relevant patient characteristics. Methods: We conducted a questionnaire, which was distributed to all collaborators of the Peritoneal Surface Oncology Group International (PSOGI). Inclusion criteria were: histopathologic proven peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer, treated with CRS and HIPEC, and overall survival > 5 years. Patient, tumor, and therapeutic details were collected and analyzed. Results: A total of 29 patients with a mean age of 52.5 years and a mean PCI of 3.2 were included. The overall median survival was 11.0 years (min 5.0; max 27.9). The predictors completeness of cytoreduction (CC-0) and low PCI (PCI < 6) were present in 23/29 patients. 13/29 patients developed at a median of 82.2 months tumor recurrence. Tumor recurrence was associated with inferior median overall survival compared to patients without tumor recurrence (8.8 years vs. not reached; p = 0.002). Conclusions: Long-term survival and even cure are possible in patients with peritoneal metastasis of gastric cancer treated with CRS and HIPEC. Completeness of cytoreduction (CC-0) and low PCI seemed to be crucial. Further studies are needed in order to improve existing selection criteria.

Abstract Aims Data about long-term clinical outcomes of young patients experiencing an acute myocardial infarction (MI), along with the potential impact of gender on incidence and prognosis in such subset are scant and mostly including USA populations. Thus, there is a paucity of data about European patients suffering from a juvenile MI. Purpose. The purpose of the current study was to investigate temporal trends, survival, MI recurrence, and sex differences among subjects who experienced their first MI at young age in the Piedmont region (Italy) between 2007 and 2018. Methods and results Hospital Discharge Register records of Piedmont region (Italy) from 2007 to 2018 were interrogated to identify incident juvenile MI cases and MI recurrences (ICD-9-CM codes: ‘410’, ‘411’, and their subcodes). Patients were considered young if the first MI occurred before or at 47 years of age. Incidence of first Juvenile MI event and subsequent overall survival among patients who survived to hospital discharge were defined as primary outcomes of interest. Subgroup analysis were performed according to sex category, comorbidities and clinical intervention (obtained from the HDRs records). Incidence of MI recurrence among patients who survived to hospital discharge was defined as secondary outcome of interest. Lastly, we evaluated whether experiencing a MI recurrence was associated with a lower overall survival at follow-up. Out of 114 816 hospitalizations due to MI, 4482 occurred in people aged ≤47, with median age 44 years old. At baseline, men had more hypertension (13% vs. 9.4%, P &lt; 0.006) and dyslipidaemia (18.2% vs. 9.9%, P &lt; 0.001), while women more cardiac arrest at presentation (2.9% vs. 1.7%, P = 0.03), cardiogenic shock (2.1% vs. 1.3%, P = 0.06), and less likely to undergone PCI (53.9% vs. 74.3%, P &lt; 0.001). More women (n = 14; 1.9%) than men (n = 33; 0.9%) died while in-hospital, adjusted OR: 2.12; 1.13–3.99. After a median follow-up was 7.2 years (IQR: 4.2–9.9), the survival rate after the first MI was 94.8%, without differences between men and women (HR: 1.05; 0.69–1.60). Age at first MI, year of hospitalization, hospitalization length, chronic kidney disease, cardiogenic shock, third degree atrio-ventricular block, and PCI were found independent predictors of long term survival. 348 (7.8%) experienced at least one MI recurrence and it was more common in men than women (adjusted HR: 0.72; 0.52–0.99). After multivariate adjustment, MI recurrence was associated with a significantly higher risk of death at follow-up as compared with a single MI episode (HR: 3.05; 1.9–4.80, all 95% CI). Conclusions In young patients with a MI, women had more in-hospital mortality compared to men, but among patients who survived to hospital discharge, overall long-term prognosis did not differ. MI recurrences were more common in men and were associated with lower long-term survival rate.

Background: Hepatic hydrothorax (HH) is an understudied complication of decompensated cirrhosis. We aimed to evaluate the long-term prognosis of patients with HH by comparing them with a matched non-HH group. Methods: This retrospective study included 763 consecutive patients hospitalized for decompensated cirrhosis and ascites. Ninety-seven patients with HH were matched for survival analysis with non-HH patients based on liver disease severity. Results: The prevalence of HH was 13.1%. Patients with HH had significantly worse overall liver function. Upon matching, patients with HH had a lower long-term survival (15.4% vs. 30.9% at 5 years) with a mean overall survival of 22.2 ± 2.2 months for the HH group vs. 27.1 ± 2.6 months for the non-HH group (Log Rank–0.05). On multivariate survival analysis using Cox regression, the MELD-Na score, ALBI grade, hepato-renal syndrome, and grade III ascites had a significant impact on mortality in patients with HH. In patients with HH, a MELD-Na score ≥ 16, ALBI grade III, hepato-renal syndrome, or severe ascites delineated high-mortality risk groups. Conclusions: HH is consistently associated with more advanced liver disease. Patients with HH have worse long-term survival, their prognosis being closely intertwined with overlapping decompensating events.

Abstract Background This study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics of metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and develop nomograms to predict their long-term overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Methods Information on metastatic HCC from 2010 to 2015 was retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program of the National Cancer Institute. The metastatic HCC patients were divided into a long-term survival (LTS) group and a short-term survival (STS) group with 1 year selected as the cut-off value. Then, we compared the demographic and clinicopathological features between the two groups. Next, all patients were randomly divided into a training group and validation group at a 7:3 ratio. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify potential predictors for OS and CSS in the training group, and nomograms of OS and CSS were established. These predictive models were further validated in the validation group. Results A total of 2163 patients were included in the current study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients with characteristics including lower T stage and N stage; treatment with surgery, radiation or chemotherapy; no lung metastasis; and AFP negative status showed better survival. The concordance index (C-index) of the OS nomogram was 0.72 based on 9 variables. The C-index of the CSS nomogram was 0.71 based on 8 variables. Conclusions These nomograms may help clinicians make better treatment recommendations for metastatic HCC patients.

Background: Graft and patient survival are of great importance after transplantation. This study aimed to determine the long-term survival rate of kidney transplantation and its effective factors among transplanted patients in Mashhad transplantation centers in northeastern Iran. Methods: Overall, 618 kidney transplant recipients were examined in different transplantation centers during the years from 2000 to 2015 in a historical cohort study. The Kaplan-Meier method and the Log-rank test were used to calculate the survival rate of the kidney transplant, and to check the difference between survival curves respectively. Modeling of effective factors in survival rate was performed using Cox regression model. Results: Overall, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 15-year survival rate of kidney transplantation were 99%, 98%, 97%, 93%, 88 and 70% respectively. The adjusted hazard ratio indicated that variables such as recipient age >40 yr [HR=0.22, 95% CI=(0.071,0.691)], serum creatinine after transplantation >1.6 Mg/dl [HR=3.03, 95% CI=(1.284,7.125)], history of hypertension [HR=6.70, 95% CI=(2.746,16.348)], and BMI [HR (normal weight versus underweight)=0.26, 95% CI=(0.088,0.761), HR (over weight versus underweight)=0.13,95% CI=(0.038,0.442)] were significant factors on kidney transplant survival rate. Conclusion: The short-term transplant survival rate was good in transplant patients. What's more, through a consideration of variables such as age, creatinine serum after transplantation, history hypertension and body mass index, as well as proper planning to control their effect, it is possible to improve the long-term graft survival rate.

e14000 Background: To evaluate the long-time outcome of patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) undergoing different types of therapy and identify factors associated with prognosis. Methods: From 2000 to 2010, a total of 1,613 patients with CRLM were identified in Zhongshan Hospital. Clinicopathological and outcome data were collected and analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Of 1,613 patients the median survival was 23.1 months and the five-year survival rate was 23%. Synchronous liver metastasis (SLM), female, grade III-IV, T4 and N + of primary tumor, bilobar disease, number of liver metastases ≥ 4, size of largest liver metastases ≥ 5 cm, CEA ≥5 ng/ml and CA19-9 ≥ 37u/ml were the predictors of adverse outcome using univariate analysis. The median survival and five-year survival rate for patients after resection of liver metastases was 49.8 months and 47%, compared with 22.2 months and 19% for those after systemic chemotherapy alone, 19.0 months and 13% for those after hepatic arterial chemotherapy alone, 22.8 months and 10% for those after systemic chemotherapy combined with hepatic arterial chemotherapy, and 28.5 months and 6% for those after local regional treatment alone (p< 0.010). In addition, patients without treatment had the poorest survival rate (9.6 months and 0%). 64 initially unresectable patients underwent surgery after convertible therapy and had a median survival of 36.9 months and a five-year survival of 30%, which was better than that of unresectable patients who did not undergo surgery (18.2 months and 10%). By multivariate analysis, SLM, poorly differentiated primary tumor, number of liver metastases ≥ 4, size of largest liver metastases ≥ 5 cm, and no surgical treatment of liver metastases were found to be independent predictors of poor survival. Conclusions: Patients with CRLM could get long-term survival benefit from different types of therapy, and resection of resectable and initially unresectable liver metastases was the optimal strategy. The disease-free interval from primary to liver metastases, the differentiation of the primary tumor, the number and size of liver metastases and the types of therapy used to treat liver metastases were independent prognostic factors.
