e15005 Background: The study discusses clinicopathological features of colorectal cancer with extranodal tumor deposits(ENTDs) and investigates whether ENTDs is a poor prognostic factor. Methods: 1. Clinicopathological data and follow-up of colorectal cancer with ENTDs who underwent surgery between June 2007 and June 2010 in seven hospitals in North China were collected retrospectively. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis. Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate analysis of prognostic factors. 2. The literatures on ENTDs and postoperative survival rate in colorectal cancer published from 1990 to 2016 were retrieved in English literature databases such as MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science and Chinese literature databases such as CNKI. Meta-analysis was conducted by Review Manager 5.3 software. Results: 1. A total of 253 cases of colorectal cancer with ENTDs were collected. The 5-year survival with only one ENTD was 49.2% (87/177), with median survival time 60 months. The 5-year survival with more than one ENTD was 17.1% (13/76), with median survival time 44 months. Cox regression analysis revealed that age, tumor size, number of ENTDs, N, m stage, surgical approach and adjuvant treatment were independent risk factors of prognosis of colorectal cancer with ENTDs. 2. The total sample size of the studies was 4731 cases with ENTDs (+) 917 cases. Meta analysis showed that: 5-year overall survival and 5-year relapse-free survival rate were significantly lower in ENTDs (+) group than ENTDs (-) group for colorectal cancer (OR:respectively 0.25,0.30; 95% CI:respectively 0.17-0.37,0.22-0.41; both P < 0.00001); 5-year overall survival rates were both significantly lower in ENTDs (+) group than ENTDs (-) group for patients with N0 and N+ colorectal cancer (N0 group: P = 0.003; N+ group: P = 0.0008; both P < 0.05). Conclusions: 1.Age, tumor size, number of ENTDs, N, m stage, surgical approach and adjuvant treatment were independent risk factors of prognosis of colorectal cancer with ENTDs. 2. ENTDs was a poor prognostic factor in colorectal cancer. The effect of ENTDs on postoperative survival rate might resemble that of between lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis.

Aim: PD-1 inhibitors have a leading role among immunotherapy while its efficacy on colorectal cancer (CRC) patients did not reach consensus and the small sample size remains as a limitation. Therefore, we undertook a meta-analysis on the effects of the monotherapy anti-PD-1 inhibitors in treating metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Materials & methods: We searched databases to identify studies on efficacy of anti-PD-1 inhibitor on CRC. Objectives were objective response rate, progression-free survival rate, disease control rate and overall survival rate with their 95% CI. Results: The overall survival rate at 1-year was 64.2% (95% CI: 0.46–0.83). Disease control rate was 56.5% (CI: 0.27–0.86) and the objective response rate as 19.7% (CI: 0.08–0.32). The 1-year-progression-free survival rate was 38.4% (CI: 0.12–0.66). Sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were also conducted. Conclusion: The monotherapy anti-PD-1 inhibitors are effective in treating mCRC and could be a new option for dMMR mCRC patient in first-line treatment.

Objective:The relationship between OCT4 and clinicopathological features in lung cancer is shown to be controversial in recent publications. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to quantitatively investigate the prognostic and clinicopathological characteristics of OCT4 in lung cancer.Methods:A comprehensive literature search of the PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, WOS, CNKI and Wanfang databases was performed to identify studies. Correlations between OCT4 expression and survival outcomes or clinicopathological features were analyzed using meta-analysis methods.Results:Twenty-one studies with 2523 patients were included. High OCT4 expression showed a poorer overall survival (OS) (univariate: HR= 2.00, 95% CI = (1.68, 2.39), p<0.0001; multivariate: HR= 2.43, 95% CI = (1.67, 3.55), p<0.0001) and median overall survival (MSR = 0.51, 95% CI = (0.44, 0.58), p < 0.0001), disease-free survival (DFS) (HR= 2.18, 95% CI = (1.30, 3.67), p = 0.003) and poorer disease-specific survival (DSS) (HR= 2.23, 95% CI = (1.21, 4.11), p = 0.010). Furthermore, high OCT4 expression was found to be related with lower 5 year disease-specific survival rate (OR= 0.24, 95% CI = (0.14, 0.41), p<0.0001) and 10 year overall survival rate (OR= 0.22, 95% CI = (0.12, 0.40), p=0.0001). Additionally, OCT4-high expression was also strongly associated with higher clinical TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, tumor distant metastasis, higher histopathologic grade, but not related with gender, smoking status, tumor size and histologic type of lung cancer.Conclusion:OCT4 over-expression in lung cancer was strongly related to poorer clinicopathological features and worse survival outcomes, which suggests that OCT4 could be a valuable prognostic marker in lung cancer.

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.

The clinical results after carbon ion radiotherapy for the metastatic lung tumors believed to be in the state of oligo-recurrence were evaluated. One hundred and sixteen lesions in 91 patients with lung cancer metastasis were treated with carbon ion radiotherapy at our institute from April 1997 to February 2011. Regarding the prescribed dose, total dose ranged between 40 gray equivalents (GyE) and 80 GyE, and fraction size ranged from 1 to 16 fractions. After a median followup period of 2.3 years (range, 0.3–13.1 years), the statistical overall survival rate and local control rate were 71.2% and 91.9% at 2 years after treatment, respectively. Treatment-related side effects were not a clinical problem. When classified by the primary organ, there were 49 cases of lung cancer, 20 cases of colorectal cancer, and 22 cases of others. The overall survival rate and local control rate for lung metastasis cases from lung cancer at 2 years after treatment were 81.5% and 92.4%, respectively, and 65.0% and 92.0% regarding lung metastasis from colorectal cancer. Carbon ion beam therapy for the metastatic lung tumors is a safe therapy, and the therapeutic effect is comparable to the outcome obtained from reported surgical resections.

Aim: A comprehensive meta-analysis was carried out to evaluate the association between high PARP1 expression and clinical outcomes in diverse types of cancers. Materials & methods: The electronic databases for all articles about PARP1 expression and cancers were searched. Additionally, bioinformatics analysis was utilized to validate the results of the meta-analysis. Results: Fifty-two studies with a total of 7140 patients were included in the current meta-analysis. High PARP1 expression was found to be significantly associated with poor overall survival and recurrence in various cancers, which were further strengthened and complemented by the results of bioinformatic analysis. Furthermore, increased PAPR1 expression was also related to clinicopathological features. Conclusion: Our findings confirmed that PARP1 might be a promising biomarker for prognosis in human cancers.

Abstract Background: Advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) is known to predict the overall survival of patients having some solid tumors or B-cell lymphoma. The study investigates the predictive value of ALI in multiple myeloma (MM) patients and the correlation between ALI and prognosis.Methods: A database of 269 MM consecutive patients who underwent chemotherapy between December 2011 and June 2019 in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University was reviewed. ALI cut-off value calculated before the initial chemotherapy and post 4 courses treatment were identified according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and its association with clinical characteristics, treatment response, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS) were assessed.Results: Patients in the low ALI group (n=147) had higher risk of β2 microglobulin elevation, more advanced ISS (International Classification System stage), and TP53 gene mutation, with significantly lower median overall survival (OS; 36.29 vs. 57.92 months, P = 0.010) and progression-free survival (PFS; 30.94 vs. 35.67 months, P = 0.013). Independent risk factors influencing the OS of MM patients were ALI (P = 0.007), extramedullary infiltration (P = 0.001), TP53 (P = 0.020), Plt (P = 0.005), and bone destruction (P = 0.024). ALI (P = 0.005), extramedullary infiltration (P = 0.004), TP53 (P = <0.001), Plt (P = 0.017), and complex chromosome karyotype (P = 0.010) were independent risk factors influencing the PFS of MM patients.Conclusions: ALI is a potential independent risk factor predicting the prognosis of newly diagnosed MM patients.

The level of ligation of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) is a critical factor that can influence outcomes. The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare outcomes following high or low ligation of IMA. A systematic search was performed for relevant articles published between 2000 and 2020. Meta-analysis was performed using fixed-effects or random-effects models; 31 studies were included. Results show significantly lower rates of anastomotic leak, postoperative morbidity and urinary dysfunction with low ligation compared with high ligation. Though recurrence rates were similar, 5-year overall survival was longer in the low ligation group. Low ligation of IMA decreases anastomotic leak rates and overall morbidity. Addition of IMA nodal clearance to low ligation appears to improve overall survival in colorectal cancer.

Background: MBNL1, a protein encoded by q25 gene on chromosome 3, belongs to the tissue-specific RNA metabolic regulation family, which controls RNA splicing.[1]MBNL1 formed in the process of development drive large transcriptomic changes in cell differentiation,[2] it serves as a kind of tumor differentiation inhibitory factor.MBNL1 has a close relationship with cancer, comprehensive analysis, [3]found that breast cancer, leukemia, stomach cancer, esophageal adenocarcinoma, glial cell carcinoma and another common tumor in the cut, and cut in Huntington's disease. But MBNL1 plays a promoting role in cervical cancer, is contradictory in colorectal cancer, It promotes colorectal cancer cell proliferation, On the other hand, it inhibits its metastasis, so it is an important physiological marker in many cancers. When we integrated the role of MBNL1 protein in various tumors, we found that its antisense RNA, MBNL1-AS1, had a good inhibitory effect in several colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, and gastric cancer. Objective: To elucidate the expression of MBNL1 and MBNL1-AS1 in various tumors, and to search for their physiological markers. Methods: It was searched by the PUMUB system and summarized its expression in various cancers. Results: MBNL1 was down-regulated, leukemia, breast cancer, glioblastoma, gastric cancer, overall survival rate, recurrence, metastasis increased. While the metastasis of colon cancer decreased, proliferation was promoted, and the effect of both was promoted for cervical cancer.MBNL1-AS1 was down-regulated, and the overall survival rate, recurrence, and metastasis of lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and bladder cancer increased. Conclusion: MBNL1 may be an important regulator of cancer, and MBNL1-AS1 is a better tumor suppressor.
