RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: The long-term prognosis of patients who undergo cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM) varies considerably on the basis of histological and operative factors. While overall survival (OS) estimates are used to inform adjuvant therapy and surveillance strategies, conditional survival may provide more clinically relevant estimates of prognosis by accounting for disease-free time elapsed. PATIENTS AND METHODS: All patients from 12 academic institutions who underwent CRS ± HIPEC for PSM from 2000 to 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. OS and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method while conditional overall (COS) and conditional disease-free survival (CDFS) rates were calculated at 1, 2, or 3 years from surgery for different tumor histologies. RESULTS: Overall, 1610 patients underwent CRS ± HIPEC. Among patients with benign appendiceal mucinous tumors (N = 460), 5-year OS and COS at 3 years were 92.1% and 96.3% (Δ4.2%), respectively. For patients with well-differentiated appendiceal cancers (N = 400), 5-year OS and COS at 3 years were 76.3% and 88.3% (Δ12.0%), respectively. For patients with high-grade appendiceal cancers (N = 258), 5-year OS and COS at 3 years were 43.8% and 75.4% (Δ31.6%), respectively. For patients with colorectal cancers (N = 362), 5-year OS and COS at 3 years were 31.8% and 67.3% (Δ35.5%), respectively. For patients with peritoneal mesothelioma (N = 130), 5-year OS and COS at 3 years were 67.6% and 89.7% (Δ22.1%), respectively. Similar trends were observed for DFS/CDFS. CONCLUSION: The conditional survival of patients undergoing CRS ± HIPEC for PSM is associated with tumor histology. COS and CDFS provide a more accurate, dynamic estimate of survival than OS and DFS, especially for patients with more aggressive histologies.

INTRODUCTION: The role of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with extraperitoneal disease (EPD) is controversial. METHODS: Among patients with peritoneal metastases from appendiceal cancer (AC) and colorectal cancer (CRC) who underwent CRS-HIPEC, those with EPD (liver, lung, or retroperitoneal lymph nodes [RP LN]) were retrospectively compared to those without EPD. Overall (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) analyses were performed before/after propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS: Among 1341 patients with AC (64%) or CRC (36%) who underwent CRS ± HIPEC, 134 (10%) had EPD whereas 1207 (90%) did not. EPD was located in the lungs (47%), RP LN (28%), liver (18%), or multiple (6%). Patients with EPD experienced worse median OS (34 versus 63 mo; P = 0.002) and RFS (12 versus 19 mo; P < 0.001). On a multivariable analysis, EPD was associated with worse RFS (P = 0.003), but not OS (P = 0.071). After PSM, the association of EPD with OS (P = 0.204) and RFS (P = 0.056) was no longer significant. In the multivariable analysis of the PSM cohort, EPD was not associated with OS (P = 0.157) or RFS (P = 0.110). CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this large retrospective multi-institutional study suggest that EPD alone, while a negative prognostic indicator, should not be considered an absolute contraindication to CRS ± HIPEC for otherwise well-selected patients with peritoneal surface malignancies. Further research is needed to delineate whether location of EPD influences OS and RFS following CRS-HIPEC.

BACKGROUND: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with or without hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is indicated for patients with peritoneal dissemination of appendiceal cancer. The role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) before CRS-HIPEC remains controversial. METHODS: A retrospective review of adult patients who underwent CRS ± HIPEC for metastatic appendiceal cancer between 2000-2017 was performed. Patients who received NAC followed by surgery were compared with those who underwent surgery first (SF) with and without 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS: Among 803 patients with appendiceal cancer who underwent CRS ± HIPEC, 225 (28%) received NAC, and 578 (72%) underwent SF. After PSM (n = 186), median overall survival (OS) did not differ (NAC: 40 vs SF: 56 months; P = .210) but recurrence-free survival (RFS) was worse among patients who received NAC (14 vs 22 months; P = .007). NAC was independently associated with worse OS (hazards ratio [HR], 1.81; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-3.18) and RFS (HR, 1.93; 95% CI, 1.25-2.99). CONCLUSION: In this multi-institutional retrospective analysis of patients with peritoneal dissemination from appendiceal cancer, the use of NAC before CRS-HIPEC was associated with worse OS and RFS even after PSM and multivariable regression. Immediate surgery should be considered for patients with disease amenable to complete cytoreduction.

BACKGROUND: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is an increasingly utilized strategy for patients with peritoneal surface malignancies (PSM). METHODS: The US HIPEC Collaborative was retrospectively reviewed to compare the indications and perioperative outcomes of patients who underwent CRS⯱â¯HIPEC between 2000 and 2012 (P1) versus 2013-2017 (P2). RESULTS: Among 2,364 patients, 39% were from P1 and 61% from P2. The most common primary site was appendiceal (64%) while the median PCI was 13 and most patients had CCR 0 (60%) or 1 (25%). Over time, median estimated blood loss, need for transfusion, and length of hospital stay decreased. While the incidence of any (55% vs. 57%; pâ¯=â¯0.426) and Clavien III/IV complications did not change over time, there was a decrease in 90-day mortality (5% vs. 3%; pâ¯=â¯0.045). CONCLUSION: CRS-HIPEC is increasingly performed for PSM at high-volume centers. Despite improvements in some perioperative outcomes and a reduction in postoperative mortality, morbidity rates remain high.

BACKGROUND: Anastomotic failure (AF) after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) remains a dreaded complication. Whether specific factors, including anastomotic technique, are associated with AF is poorly understood. METHODS: Patients who underwent CRS-HIPEC including at least one bowel resection between 2000 and 2017 from 12 academic institutions were reviewed to determine factors associated with AF (anastomotic leak or enteric fistula). RESULTS: Among 1020 patients who met the inclusion criteria, the median age was 55 years, 43.9% were male, and the most common histology was appendiceal neoplasm (62.3%). The median Peritoneal Cancer Index was 14, and 93.2% of the patients underwent CC0/1 resection. Overall, 82 of the patients (8%) experienced an AF, whereas 938 (92.0%) did not. In the multivariable analysis, the factors associated with AF included male gender (odds ratio [OR], 2.2; p < 0.01), left-sided colorectal resection (OR 10.0; p = 0.03), and preoperative albumin (OR 1.8 per g/dL; p = 0.02).Technical factors such as method (stapled vs hand-sewn), timing of anastomosis, and chemotherapy regimen used were not associated with AF (all p > 0.05). Anastomotic failure was associated with longer hospital stay (23 vs 10 days; p < 0.01), higher complication rate (90% vs 59%; p < 0.01), higher reoperation rate (41% vs 9%; p < 0.01), more 30-day readmissions (59% vs 22%; p < 0.01), greater 30-day mortality (9% vs 1%; p < 0.01), and greater 90-day mortality (16% vs 8%; p = 0.02) as well as shorter median overall survival (25.6 vs 66.0 months; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Among patients undergoing CRS-HIPEC, AF is independently associated with postoperative morbidity and worse long-term outcomes. Because patient- and tumor-related, but not technical, factors are associated with AF, operative technique may be individualized based on patient considerations and surgeon preference.

BACKGROUND: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines recommend chemotherapy for patients with inoperable biliary tract cancers (BTC), as well as patients following resection of BTC with lymph node metastasis (N1)/positive margins (R1). We sought to define overall adherence, as well as long-term outcomes, with the NCCN guidelines for BTC using the National Cancer Database (NCDB). METHODS: A total of 176,536 patients diagnosed with BTC at a hospital participating in the NCDB between 2004 and 2015 were identified. RESULTS: Among all patients, 63% of patients received medical therapy (chemotherapy or best supportive care), 11% underwent surgical palliation, and 26% underwent curative-intent surgery. According to the NCCN guidelines, 86% (n = 152,245) of patients were eligible for chemotherapy, yet, only 42.2% (n = 64,615) received chemotherapy. Factors associated with a lower adherence with NCCN guidelines included patient age (> 65 years: OR = 1.02), ethnicity (Black: OR = 1.14, Hispanic: OR = 1.21, Asian: OR = 1.24), and insurance status (non-private: OR = 1.45, all p < 0.001). A smaller subset of patients was either recommended chemotherapy but refused (n = 9269, 10.6%) or had medical factors that contraindicated chemotherapy (n = 8275, 9.4%). On multivariable analysis, adjusting for clinical and tumor-specific factors, adherence with NCCN guidelines was associated with a survival benefit for patients receiving medical therapies (HR = 0.74) or undergoing curative-intent surgery (HR = 0.73, both p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Less than half of patients with BTC received systemic chemotherapy in adherence with NCCN guidelines. While a subset of patients had contraindications or refused chemotherapy, other factors such as insurance status and ethnicity were associated with adherence. Adherence with chemotherapy guidelines may influence long-term outcomes.
