e14570 Background: Resection of primary tumors in the setting of metastatic colorectal cancer (MCRC) is controversial. Fewer primary tumor resections are being performed due to the improved tumor responses and disease control rates associated with modern systemic therapy. Recent studies suggest a survival benefit for patients with MCRC who had primary tumors resection prior to systemic therapy. This analysis evaluates the independent prognostic impact of primary tumor resection on overall survival (OS) for patients with MCRC using the California Cancer Registry (CCR). Methods: We queried the CCR for all patients with MCRC diagnosed between 2003 and 2010. Patients were categorized by whether or not they had primary tumor resection at time of diagnosis. Covariates included gender, age, race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status (SES), and rural-urban commuting area (RUCA) score of patients. Univariate comparisons were made using the Kaplan Meier method. Multivariate comparisons were performed using the Cox proportional hazards regression method. Results: 19,836 patients met the criteria for analysis of whom 11,566 (58%) had primary tumor resection. Primary tumor resection rates declined over this time period (63% in 2003 v. 52.8% in 2010, p<0.0001), varied by SES (55% v. 62%: lowest versus highest, p<0.001) and residence (63% in rural versus 58% for urban, P=0.0160). On multivariate analysis, overall survival was significantly better for patients that had primary tumor resection (HR: 0.467 [95% CI: 0.467-0.482]; p<0.0001). Survival was statistically longer in younger patients (HR: 1.385 for age 65-75, HR: 2.217 if greater than age 75), highest SES (HR: 0.869, p<0.0001), Hispanics (HR: 0.884, p<0001), and Asian/Pacific Islanders (HR:0.892, p<0.0001). Overall survival was worse for African Africans (HR:1.105, P=0.0001). Conclusions: Our study demonstrates the independent prognostic value on survival of primary tumor resection in patients with MCRC. There is significant variability of resection rates by SES and rural-urban residence. As analysis of CCR data cannot eliminate the influence of patient and provider biases, a prospective randomized trial is warranted.

AbstractIt is not well determined whether primary tumor resection is associated with better outcomes in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with bevacizumab. In this meta-analysis, we aimed to assess the prognostic role of primary tumor resection in mCRC treated with bevacizumab. Electronic databases including the Cochrane library, Embase, and Pubmed were searched until April 2018. Clinical studies assessing the influence of primary tumor resection on the efficacy of bevacizumab in patients with mCRC were identified. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and the secondary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Seven studies including 2760 mCRC patients were finally included. The results of the meta-analysis were in favor of bevacizumab to patients with resected primary tumor in terms of OS (HR = 0.50, 95%CI: 0.39–0.64; p < 0.01), and PFS (HR = 0.65, 95%CI: 0.51–0.81; p < 0.01). Administration of bevacizumab in mCRC patients with resected primary tumor had a better OS (HR = 0.65, 95%CI: 0.56–0.74; p < 0.01), when compared to chemotherapy(CT). Adding bevacizumab to mCRC patients without resection of primary tumor also had a better OS (HR = 0.78, 95%CI: 0.65–0.94; p < 0.01) and PFS (HR = 0.71, 95%CI: 0.57–0.88; p < 0.01) compared to chemotherapy alone. In conclusion, mCRC patients with resected primary tumor have better survival than those without surgery of primary tumor when treated with bevacizumab. Primary tumor resection status should be taken into consideration when using bevacizumab in mCRC.

592 Background: Recent advances in chemotherapy have improved survival in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Resection of primary tumor for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer remains controversial. Primary tumor with obstruction or bleeding may be recommended to resection pior to chemotherapy. In contrast, it should be considered potential complications associated with resection of primary tumor and disadvantage of the delay in chemotherapy. Here, we evaluate the needs of primary tumor resection for colorectal cancer patients with synchronous metastases. Methods: A retrospective analysis of patients with synchronous metastatic colorectal cancer treated at Kumamoto University Hospital between April, 2005 and December, 2009 was performed. We compared the survival of resected patients and non-resected patients. Results: 104 patients were identified. Sixty-four and 40 patients were included in the resected group and the non-resected group respectively. The mean follow-up time was 16.1 months. Median age was 61.9 and 64.3 years respectively. The non-resected group was more likely to have right-sided tumors (resected: 28%, non-resected: 43%). The number of patient with metastatic disease limited to the liver was similar in both group(resected: 48%, non-resected: 50%). In the resected group, 12 patients (18%) developed postoperative complications. In the nonresected group, 5 patients (12.5%) required creation of a diverting colostomy during the course of their treatment due to obstruction, and 2 patients (5%) required emergency surgical treatment for intestinal perforation due to the primary tumor. No significant difference in survival was observed between the groups, (logrank P=0.33). Median survival period was not significantly different (resected: 27.3 months, non-resected: 21.5 months, P=0.43). Conclusions: We concluded that it was not necessary to resect the primary lesion in patients with synchronous metastatic colorectal cancer when obstruction or bleeding was not found in primary lesions.
