4034 Background: Indications for PM in pts with mCRC are often based on the presence of favorable prognostic factors. We aimed to analyze the prognostic factors and outcomes of pts treated with PM for mCRC. Methods: We retrospectively identified pts with mCRC who underwent PM with curative intent between Jan 1985 and Dec 2019 at Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. Demographics, clinicopathological features and previously described prognostic factors were collected. Univariate Cox regression was performed and followed by Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves with log-rank test when significant. Results: Fifty-eight pts underwent PM. Demographics are described in Table. Wedge resection was performed in 87.9% and margins were negative in 89.1%. Mean number of lesions was 2.4 ± 1.7, with the largest measuring 1.7 ± 0.9 cm. Two or more resections were performed in 36.2%, nodal sampling in 27.3%, and nodal disease was found in 5.2%.Thirty-day readmission rate was 5.2%. One pt had a Clavien-Dindo grade IIIb complication. RAS/RAF/MMR and CK20/CDX2 were available for 13.8% and 58.6% of the sample. Median PFS 14 months (m) (95% CI 10.4 - 17.5), median OS 58 m (95% CI 33.5 - 82.4) and 5-year survival 49.8%. Unfavorable prognostic factors for OS included disease-free interval (DFI) < 24 m (40 m, 95% CI 31.8 - 48.1 vs 85 m, 95% CI 75.7 -96.2; P < 0.005), synchronous presentation (33 m, 95% CI 23.9 - 42.0 vs 77 m, 95% CI 50.7 - 103.2; P < 0.001), largest lesion size ≥ 2cm (37 m, 95% CI 22.9 - 51.0 m vs 81 m, 95% CI - 33.7 - 128.2, P = 0.019) and lack of CK20 expression (19 m, 95% CI 12.1 - 27.2 vs. 83 m, 95% CI 46.9 - 119.0; P < 0.001). More than one lesion at presentation was prognostic for PFS (11 m, 95% CI 7.6 - 14.3 vs 23 m, 95% CI 0.1 - 59.2; P = 0.003) but not OS (P = 0.11). Grade was significant at Cox regression but showed no effect in further analysis. Neither CEA at baseline or relapse, resection margins, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) or adjuvant chemotherapy were prognostic. Conclusions: Our results suggest a benefit for select pts and PM. Lack of CK20 expression may be associated with more aggressive disease and shorter OS. Additional molecular prognostic factors after PM should be further explored. [Table: see text]

Abstract Background Several clinicopathological predictors of survival after curative surgery for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) have been identified; however, conflicting reports remain. The aim was to analyse clinical and oncological outcomes after curative resection of pCCA and to determine prognostic factors. Methods Eighty-eight consecutive patients with pCCA underwent surgery with curative intent between 1998 and 2017. Survival curves were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Twenty-one prognostic factors were evaluated using multivariate Cox regression models. Results Postoperative complications were observed in 73 (83%) patients of which 41 (47%) were severe complications (therapy-oriented severity grading system (TOSGS) grade > 2), including a 90-day mortality of 9% (n = 8). Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates at 5 and 10 years after surgery were 33% and 19%, and 37% and 30%, respectively. Independent predictors of OS were locoregional lymph node metastasis (LNM) (risk ratio (RR) 2.12, confidence interval (CI) 1.19–3.81, p = 0.011), patient American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification system > 2 (RR 2.10, CI 1.03–4.26, p = 0.043), and depth of tumour penetration (pT) > 2 (RR 2.58, CI 1.03–6.30, p = 0.043). The presence of locoregional LNM (RR 2.95, CI 1.51–5.90, p = 0.002) and caudate lobe resection (RR 2.19, CI 1.01–5.14, p = 0.048) were found as independent predictors of DFS. Conclusions Curative surgery for pCCA carries high risks with poor long-term survival. Locoregional LNM was the only predictor for both OS and DFS.

Abstract Background: CR and CR with incomplete count recovery (CRi) are associated with prolonged overall survival (OS) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients (pts) treated with curative-intent, induction therapy. For AML pts treated with azacitidine (AZA), response (CR, partial response, marrow CR, or hematologic improvement) is also associated with prolonged OS. We evaluate whether patients given AZA for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or AML had longer OS if they achieved CR. We also compare the effect size of CR on OS between AZA regimens and 7+3. Patients and Methods: We analyzed four SWOG studies: S1117 (n=277) was a randomized Phase II study comparing AZA to AZA+lenalidomide or AZA+vorinostat for higher-risk MDS and CMML pts (median age 70 years, range 28-93); S0703 (n=133) treated AML pts not eligible for curative-intent therapy with AZA+mylotarg (median age 73 years, range 60-88). We analyzed the 7+3 arms of S0106 (n=301 were randomized to 7+3, median age 48 years, range 18-60) and S1203 (n=261 were randomized to 7+3, median age 48 years, range 19-60). CR was defined per 2003 International Working Group criteria. In S1117 CR was assessed every 16 weeks and patients remained on therapy until disease progression. In S0703, S0106, and S1203 CR was assessed following 1-2 induction cycles; patients not achieving CR (S0106) or CRi (S0703 and S1203) were removed from protocol treatment. OS was measured from date of study registration. To avoid survival by response bias, we performed landmark analyses of OS. We present results based on the study-specific landmark date that 75% of pts who eventually achieved a CR had done so (S1117 144 days, S0703 42 days, S0106 44 days, S1203 34 days). Pts who did not achieve CR by this date were analyzed with pts who never achieved CR. Pts who died or were lost to follow-up before this date were excluded from analyses. As a sensitivity analysis we also analyzed based on the 90% date; results were not materially different. Log-rank tests were used to compare survival curves and Cox regression models were used for multivariable modeling including baseline prognostic factors age, sex, performance status, white blood cell count, platelet count, marrow blast percentage, de novo disease (versus antecedent MDS or therapy-related disease), study arm (for S1117 only), and cytogenetic risk (IPSS criteria for S1117, SWOG criteria for S0703, S0106, and S1203). The following analysis considers morphologic CR only. S0106 treated CR with incomplete count recover (CRi) pts as treatment failures (S0703 and S1203 did not) and CRi was not defined for S1117. Hematologic improvement was only defined for S1117 patients. Results: In univariate analysis, CR was significantly associated with prolonged survival among MDS pts treated with azactidine on S1117 (HR=0.55, p=0.017), confirming the results seen in AML pts treated with azacitidine (and mylotarg, S0703, HR=0.60, p=0.054) and 7+3 (S0106 HR=0.44, p<0.001; S1203 HR=0.32, p<0.0001) (Figure 1). For each study this relationship remained significant in multivariable analysis controlling for baseline prognostic factors (S1117 HR=0.25, p<0.001; S0703 HR=0.64, p=0.049; S0106 HR=0.45, p<0.001; S1203 HR=0.41, p<0.001). There was no evidence that the impact of CR varied across the four cohorts (interaction p-value = 0.76). In the full cohort, the effect of CR was associated with a HR of 0.45 (Table 1). Conclusion: Adjusting for pt characteristics, achievement of morphologic CR was associated with a 60% improvement in OS, on average, compared to that seen in pts who don't achieve a CR, regardless of whether pts were treated with 7+3 or AZA containing regimens, and suggesting that value CR is similar of whether pts receive more or less "intensive" therapy for these high grade neoplasms.

Introduction: Ewing Family Tumour (EFT) is a group of rare malignant and aggressive tumour, with a considerably improved prognosis. However, there is lack of study on the outcome of children with EFT in Malaysia. Objectives: The study aimed to evaluate the Overall Survival (OS) rate, Event Free Survival (EFS) rate and identify the prognostic factors that determined the EFT outcome at Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM). Methodology: A retrospective record review of children aged 0-18 years with EFT was done. Patients were identified from the registration data in the Oncology Unit and Record Office of Hospital USM. For patients with untraceable information or deceased, a letter was sent to State Registry to obtain the outcome of the patient. The association between demographics and patients’ clinical factors was determined using the Cox regression. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and were compared using the Log-rank test. Results: There were 51 patients identified but 29 of them were eligible for the study. The mean duration of follow-up was 21 months. The OS rate at 1, 2, 3 and 5 years were 62.1%, 44.8%, 30.2% and 21.6% respectively. The EFS rate at 1, 2, 3 and 5 years were 41.9%, 26.7%, 17.8% and 0% respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the presence of surgical intervention (p = 0.030) and major complications (p = 0.045) were the significant prognostic factors to the survival of EFT. Conclusion: The survival rate of EFT among our patients was comparable to other developing countries, with surgical intervention and the presence of major complications as independent prognostic factors.

Background/Aims: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a public health problem. In Mexico, there have been no recent studies conducted on survival in terms of this pathology or on the influence of prognostic factors. The study aims to determine the probability of survival in patients with CRC presence of low levels of schooling and a rural population, adjusted for clinical stage and type of treatment.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in a cohort of 305 patients with CRC treated at State Cancer Center, located in Veracruz-Mexico; the follow-up period of 60 months (2012–2016). The survival probability was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the log-rank test with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Prognostic factors were determined using hazard ratio (HR) multivariate Cox regression analysis.Results: Overall survival was 40% at 60 months. Subjects in the age group ≥ 65 years had a low survival rate of 28% (<i>P</i>= 0.026) and an advanced clinical stage of 22% (<i>P</i>< 0.001). Of the patients with bone metastasis, none survived longer than 5 years (<i>P</i>= 0.008). With respect to the unfavorable prognostic factors identified in the multivariate analysis, a decreased level of schooling was associated with an HR of 7.6 (95% CI, 1.1–54.7), advanced clinical stage was associated with an HR of 2.1 (95% CI, 1.2–4.0), and the presence of metastasis had an HR of 1.8 (95% CI, 1.1–2.9).Conclusions: Poor prognostic factors include an advanced clinical stage, the presence of metastasis and a low level of schooling. These findings confirm the importance of screening for early diagnosis, diminishing the barriers to accessing treatment and prospectively monitoring the population.

451 Background: We conducted a retrospective study to evaluate clinical outcomes in patients with non-metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma (nmGA) treated at two high-volume academic institutions within the University of California (UC) system. Methods: Electronic Health Records and California Cancer Registry of demographic and clinical data were collected for pts with nmGA who underwent surgery with curative intent from 2010-2017. Medical chart reviews were conducted to validate outcomes. We used multivariate Cox regression to determine prognostic factors for cancer recurrence and overall survival. Results: Demographics of study cohort (n = 406): mean age 65 years; 71% male; 58% Caucasian, 26% Asian, 13% Latino. There was an even distribution between pts with locoregionally advanced (defined as pT4 or pN1+) vs. localized (pT1-3, pN0) disease. Tumor histology: 49% intestinal, 19% diffuse, 13% mixed, 19% unknown. Type of surgery: 27% open gastrectomy, 59% laparoscopic, 14% unknown. Multimodality therapy: 29% received perioperative systemic rx alone (48% adjuvant only, 52% neoadjuvant +/- adjuvant), 35% received perioperative systemic rx plus radiation (40% adjuvant only, 60% neoadjuvant +/- adjuvant), 36% underwent surgery only. With median f/u time after surgery of 5 years, 21% of pts developed cancer recurrence and 43% had died. Weight loss prior to diagnosis, locoregional stage, and positive resection margins were a/w recurrence (HR = 1.6-2.5, p < .05). Only locoregional stage was prognostic for worse survival (HR = 2.7, p < .0001). Positive resection margins were seen in 6% of pts and were a/w diffuse histology and tumor size > 4cm (odds ratio = 2.9-8.8, p < .02). Multimodality therapy was not a/w recurrence but was a/w longer survival after adjusting for stage (HR = 0.3, p < .0001). Addition of radiation to systemic rx did not confer further improvements in either recurrence or survival. Conclusions: This study highlights contemporary practice patterns for pts with nmGA and demonstrates a survival benefit with multimodality rx. Additional data are being gathered from other UC medical centers to confirm these findings and explore differences across institutions and ethnicities.

Malnutrition leads to poor prognoses, including a predisposition to falls. Few studies have investigated the relationship between malnutrition and falls during hospitalization. This study aimed to determine malnutrition’s association with falls during hospitalization. A retrospective observational study was conducted. Patients aged ≥65 years that were admitted to and discharged from a university hospital between April 2018 and March 2019 were examined. Patients with independent basic activities of daily living were included. Diagnosis of malnutrition was based on the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) criteria at admission. Disease information such as the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and reasons for hospitalization were reviewed. Kaplan–Meier curve and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed. Data from 6081 patients (mean age: 74.4 ± 6.1 years; males: 58.1%) were analyzed. The mean CCI was 2.3 ± 2.8 points. Malnutrition was detected in 668 (11.0%) and falls occurred in 55 (0.9%) patients. Malnourished patients experienced a higher fall rate than those without malnutrition (2.4% vs. 0.7%, log-rank test p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, malnutrition had the highest hazard ratio for falls among covariates (hazard ratio 2.78, 95% confidence interval 1.51–5.00, p = 0.001). In conclusion, malnutrition at the time of admission to hospital predicts in-hospital falls.

Background and aim To analyze the management and outcome of patients with primary typical (TC) and atypical lung carcinoids (AC) in Switzerland. Methods Retrospective analysis of patients selected from a neuroendocrine tumor (NET) registry. Patients were divided into TC and AC according to pathology reports, and surgical procedures were grouped as wedge/segmentectomy, lobectomy/bilobectomy and pneumectomy. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test. Results Over 7 years, 113 pulmonary carcinoids (61.9% females, mean age 59.4 years) were included from 19 hospitals, with pathology data on Ki67 and necrosis incomplete in 16 cases. Eighty-three TC and 14 AC underwent surgical resection with a primary tumor size of median 14.5 (range 1–80) mm and diagnosis was established in 55.8% at surgery. Mean follow-up was 30.2 ± 23.1 months. Lobectomy was performed in 54.2% and wedge resection in 17.7% of cases. Six patients received additional systemic therapy. There was a trend for larger primary lesion size and a significantly higher rate of N2–N3 status in AC. Mean survival tended to be increased in patients with TC compared to AC (86.1 vs 48.4 months, P = 0.06) and mean disease-free interval after surgical resection was 74.1 and 48.3 months for TC and AC, respectively (P = 0.74). Conclusion AC of the lung has a more malignant behavior and a trend to a worse outcome. The results of this registry reinforce the need for standardized histological diagnosis and inter-disciplinary therapeutic decision making to improve the quality of care of patients with TC and AC.

Abstract Background and Aims The life expectancy in dialysis patients depends on patients’ age and comorbidities. Frailty in elderly patients is a state of impaired homeostasis with loss of physiologic reserve and a consequent impaired responses to dialysis burden. In this study we assessed the impact of age, comorbidities and frailty on dialysis patients’ survival. Method The study enrolled 162 prevalent patients on chronic hemodialysis with mean dialysis vintage of 100 months, 55% were women and 21 % had diabetes. Patients were divided into three groups by the Khan Comorbidity index score, highest score was considered worse. Frailty was assessed by presence of 3 or more symptoms (unintentional weight loss, feeling exhausted, weak grip strength, slow walking speed and low physical activity) and expressed as absolute number. Estimates of five years life expectancy were assessed by Kaplan Meier survival log-rank test and Cox regression hazard model. Results There were 26 (16%) with lowest score, 85 (52%) with medium score and worst highest score in 51 (31%). During the 5 years of follow up 69(43%) patients died of all-cause mortality. There were no deaths in the group with lowest score and mortality rates in the intermediate and worse score group increased by double (0; 30%; 69%, respectively). Significantly higher mean life expectancy was found in lower Khan Score groups: 60mo; 48.40 ± 18.51; 32.44 ± 22.06, log-rank: p &lt; 0.012. Patients that scored worse had four folds higher risk for death HR 4.2 (95% CI: 2.72 – 6.36), p=0.0001. In the multivariate model Khan Score was a more powerful predictor of mortality than frailty in elderly, with HR 3.2 (95% CI: 2.88 – 5.41), p=0.0001. Conclusion Comorbidities and age outperforms frailty burden as a predictor of mortality in dialysis patients.
