ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To assess the ability of the Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index (ACCI) to predict perioperative complications and survival in patients undergoing primary debulking for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).METHODS:
Data were analyzed for all patients with stage IIIB-IV EOC who underwent primary cytoreduction from 1/2001-1/2010 at our institution. Patients were divided into 3 groups based on an ACCI of 0-1, 2-3, and ≥4. Clinical and survival outcomes were assessed and compared.RESULTS:
We identified 567 patients; 199 (35%) had an ACCI of 0-1, 271 (48%) had an ACCI of 2-3, and 97 (17%) had an ACCI of ≥4. The ACCI was significantly associated with the rate of complete gross resection (0-1=44%, 2-3=32%, and ≥4=32%; p=0.02), but was not associated with the rate of minor (47% vs 47% vs 43%, p=0.84) or major (18% vs 19% vs 16%, p=0.8) complications. The ACCI was also significantly associated with progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Median PFS for patients with an ACCI of 0-1, 2-3, and ≥4 was 20.3, 16, and 15.4 months, respectively (p=0.02). Median OS for patients with an ACCI of 0-1, 2-3, and ≥4 was 65.3, 49.9, and 42.3 months, respectively (p<0.001). On multivariate analysis, the ACCI remained a significant prognostic factor for both PFS (p=0.02) and OS (p<0.001).CONCLUSIONS:
The ACCI was not associated with perioperative complications in patients undergoing primary cytoreduction for advanced EOC, but was a significant predictor of PFS and OS. Prospective clinical trials in ovarian cancer should consider stratifying for an age-comorbidity covariate.Palavras-chave
