ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Treatment options for T1/2N0M0 anal squamous cell carcinoma include chemotherapy, radiotherapy, chemoradiotherapy, and local excision, although the optimal treatment method has not been determined.METHODS:
The National Cancer Institute Surveillance, Epidemiology and Results database was used to search and screen 1465 patients with cT1/2N0M0 anal squamous cell carcinoma who were clinically diagnosed between 2004 and 2016. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed to screen independent prognostic factors and build a nomogram survival prediction model. According to the risk score, patients were divided into low, medium, and high risk groups using X-tile software.RESULTS:
Age, sex, grade and cT stage were identified as independent prognostic factors for cT1/2N0M0 anal squamous cell carcinoma and were included in the nomogram to construct a prediction model. The C-index of the model was 0.770 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.693-0.856], which was higher than the C-index of T stage 0.565 (95% CI, 0.550-0.612). Low-risk patients benefited from local resection, moderate-risk patients benefited from radiotherapy, and high-risk patients benefited from radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. This was confirmed using external validation data from the center.CONCLUSION:
The nomogram developed in this study effectively and comprehensively evaluated the prognosis of patients with cT1/2N0M0 squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal. Local excision is recommended for low risk patients, radiotherapy for moderate-risk patients, and radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy for high-risk patients.
