ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Primary breast lymphoma (PBL) is a rare disease whose epidemiological features, treatment principles, and factors used for the patients' prognosis remain controversial.OBJECTIVE:
The aim of this study was to explore the epidemiology of PBL and to develop a better model based on machine learning to predict the prognosis for patients with primary breast lymphoma.METHODS:
The annual incidence of PBL was extracted from the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results database between 1975 and 2019 to examine disease occurrence trends using Joinpoint software (version 4.9; National Cancer Institute). We enrolled data from 1251 female patients with primary breast lymphoma from the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results database for survival analysis. Univariable and multivariable analyses were performed to explore independent prognostic factors for overall survival and disease-specific survival of patients with primary breast lymphoma. Eight machine learning algorithms were developed to predict the 5-year survival of patients with primary breast lymphoma.RESULTS:
The overall incidence of PBL increased drastically between 1975 and 2004, followed by a significant downward trend in incidence around 2004, with an average annual percent change (AAPC) of -0.8 (95% CI -1.1 to -0.6). Disparities in trends of PBL exist by age and race. The AAPC of the 65 years or older cohort was about 1.2 higher than that for the younger than 65 years cohort. The AAPC of White patients is 0.9 (95% CI 0.0-1.8), while that of Black patients was significantly higher at 2.1 (95% CI -2.5 to 6.9). We also identified that the risk of death from PBL is multifactorial and includes patient factors and treatment factors. Survival analysis revealed that the patients diagnosed between 2007 and 2015 had a significant risk reduction of mortality compared to those diagnosed between 1983 and 1990. The gradient booster model outperforms other models, with 0.752 for sensitivity and 0.817 for area under the curve. The important features established with the gradient booster model were the year of diagnosis, age, histologic type, and primary site, which were the 4 most relevant variables to explain 5-year survival status.CONCLUSIONS:
The incidence of PBL started demonstrating a tendency to decrease after 2004, which varied by age and race. In recent years, the prognosis of patients with primary breast lymphoma has been remarkably improved. The gradient booster model had a promising performance. This model can help clinicians identify the early prognosis of patients with primary breast lymphoma and therefore improve the clinical outcome by changing management strategies and patient health care.Mots clés
