ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
BRCA-associated ovarian cancers are biologically unique; it is unclear if this translates to favorable outcomes at the time of primary cytoreduction (PCS). The aim of this study was to compare the amount of residual disease after PCS in BRCA mutated (BRCAm) and wild-type (BRCAwt) high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSC), and to assess whether BRCA status was an independent predictor of complete cytoreduction.METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with stage III/IV HGSC with known germline and somatic BRCA status, treated with PCS from 2000 to 2017. We compared the complete, optimal and suboptimal cytoreduction rates between the BRCAm and BRCAwt cohorts and built a predictive model to assess whether BRCA status was predictive of complete cytoreduction.RESULTS:
Of 303 treated with PCS, 120 were germline/somatic BRCAm (40%) and 183 were BRCAwt (60%). BRCAm women tended to be younger, but there were no differences between the two groups in preoperative CA-125, disease burden, surgical complexity, length of surgery, or perioperative complications. BRCAm group had a higher rate of complete cytoreduction to no residual disease (0 mm) [72% vs. 48%] (p < 0.001). In a multivariate model, after accounting for age, length of surgery, CA-125 level, stage, disease burden and surgical complexity, BRCAm status was predictive of 0 mm residual disease with odds ratio of 5.3 (95% CI 2.45-11.5; p < 0.001).CONCLUSIONS:
BRCAm status is predictive of complete cytoreduction at the time of PCS. Despite similar disease burden and surgical efforts, one is more likely to achieve complete resection in BRCAm HGSC.Palabras clave
