ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate treatment outcomes, survival, and predictive factors in patients ≥70 with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC).METHODS:
A retrospective single institution cohort study of women ≥70 with Stage III-IV AEOC between 2010 and 2018. Patients had either primary cytoreductive surgery (PCS), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) with interval cytoreductive surgery (ICS), chemotherapy alone, or no treatment. Demographics, surgical outcome, complications, and survival outcome were compared between groups.RESULTS:
Among 248 patients, 69 (27.7%) underwent PCS, 99 (39.9%) had ICS, 56 (22.5%) had chemotherapy alone. Twenty-four (9.6%) remained untreated. Optimal cytoreduction (≤1 cm) was achieved in 72.4% of PCS and 77.8% of NACT/ICS (p = 0.34), without difference in grade ≥3 postoperative complications (15.9% vs. 9.1%, p = 0.37). Progression-free survival (PFS) was 23.5 months in PCS and 15.0 months in ICS patients (hazard ratio [HR] 1.4, p = 0.041). Patients in the surgical arms, PCS or ICS, had better 2-year overall survival (OS) compared to chemotherapy alone (79%, 68%, 41%, respectively, HR 3.58, p < 0.001). In a subgroup analysis, patients ≥80 had improved 2-year OS when treated with NACT compared to PCS (82% vs. 57%) and a trend toward improved PFS. Age, stage, and CA-125 were determinants of undergoing PCS.CONCLUSION:
In patients ≥70 with AEOC, surgery should not be deferred based on age alone. Fit, well selected patients ≥70 can benefit from PCS, while patients ≥80 might benefit from NACT over PCS.Palabras clave
