RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Malnutrition is common in ovarian cancer and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We aimed to define the most pertinent way to assess malnutrition in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) in order to study its impact on morbidity (intra and post-operative complications) and survival (OS, overall survival and RFS, recurrence-free survival). METHODS: We retrospectively included all patients with EOC from 2003 to 2020. Nutritional status was assessed using the weight loss at diagnosis (more or <5%), albuminemia, the Nutritional Risk Index (NRI), and the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST). RESULTS: Six hundred and fifteen patients were included. Among them, 34% declared having lost >5% of their usual weight, 58% had an albuminemia <35 g/L, 86% presented an abnormal NRI and 29% an abnormal MUST score. After univariate analysis, weight loss>5% appeared to be significantly associated with RFS. An abnormal NRI or MUST score were significantly associated with a decrease in OS in univariate analysis. None of the markers of malnutrition studied were correlated with morbidity. CONCLUSION: We were not able to reach a consensus concerning the most accurate definition to define malnutrition and predict morbidity and mortality in EOC. However, this modifiable prognosis factor must be systematically assessed and managed accordingly.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: BRCA1 promoter methylation (BRCA1pm) is suspected to alter prognosis of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We aimed to evaluate the prognostic impact of this epigenetic modification. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective, monocentric study from 11/2006 to 08/2018. Patients with EOC and available status concerning somatic BRCA1/2 mutation and BRCA1pm were included. Three groups were defined: patients without BRCA1/2 mutation or BRCA1pm, patients with BRCA1/2 mutation and patients with BRCA1pm. BRCA1/2 mutations were analyzed in current care settings by next-generation sequencing (NGS). BRCA1pm analysis was assessed and quantified from bisulfite converted DNAs using fluorescent methylation specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and fragment analysis. All patients signed a consent form and the study was authorized by a Personal Protection Committee. Descriptive statistics were used to describe groups. Multivariate analysis was performed using the logistic regression model and including the variables that could be known at the time of diagnosis and that were significant at univariate analysis. Survival was compared between the groups. Kaplan-Mayer curves were used to express the differences in survival that were compared using log rank tests. RESULTS: 145 patients were included: 95 (65.5 %) patients without BRCA1/2 mutation or BRCA1pm, 32 (22.1 %) patients with BRCA1/2 mutation, 18 (12.4 %) patients with BRCA1pm. Median survival was decreased in patients with BRCA1pm. Comparison of survival revealed a significant difference in overall survival (p = 0.0078) with a worse prognosis for patients with a BRCA1pm. CONCLUSION: BRCA1pm in patients with EOC is an independent factor associated with a decreased overall survival. SYNOPSIS: BRCA1 promotor methylation in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer is an independent factor associated with a decreased overall survival.
