RESUMO

Preoperative radiotherapy for early-stage rectal cancer has risks and benefits that may impact treatment choice in young patients. We reviewed radiotherapy use and outcomes for rectal cancer by age. Patients with early-stage rectal cancer in the Canadian province of British Columbia from 2002 to 2016 were identified (n = 6,232). Baseline characteristics, treatment response, overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), disease-specific survival (DSS), and locoregional recurrence rate (LRR) were compared between patients <50 (early-onset; n = 532) and ≥50 years old (average-onset; n = 5,700). Early-onset patients were more likely to receive preoperative chemoradiotherapy than short-course radiotherapy [OR, 2.20; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.67-2.89; P < 0.0001], but also had higher nodal (P = 0.00096) and overall clinical staging (P = 0.033). Cancer downstaging and pathologic complete response rates were similar in those receiving neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy by age. Early-onset and average-onset patients had similar DSS (P = 0.91) and DFS (P = 0.27) in multivariate analysis unless non-colorectal deaths, which were higher in older patients, were censored in the DFS model (HR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.01-1.68; P = 0.042). LRR also did not differ between age groups (P = 0.88). Outcomes did not differ based on radiotherapy type. Young patients with rectal cancer are more likely to present with higher staging and receive long-course chemoradiotherapy. DSS did not differ by age group; however, young patients had worse DFS when we censored competing risks of death in older patients. Significance: This population-based study suggests younger patients are more likely to receive chemoradiotherapy, potentially due to higher stage at diagnosis, and response is comparable by age.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: We evaluated a population-based cohort of metastatic well-differentiated grade 3 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (G3 NETs) to describe their characteristics, prognosis, and treatment outcomes. METHODS: The British Columbia provincial database was queried for G3 NETs diagnosed 2004 to 2021, and charts were reviewed to describe clinical features and outcomes. RESULTS: Forty-one patients were identified, most were diagnosed with pancreatic (58.5%) or midgut (26.8%) primary tumor and Ki-67 was less than 55% in 68.3%. The primary was resected in 19 (46.3%) with median disease-free survival of 25.2 months. Once metastatic, patients received a median of one line of systemic therapy. Median overall survival with metastatic disease was 33.8 months. Median progression-free survival was longest in patients treated with capecitabine-temozolomide (20.6 months) or somatostatin analogs (7.9 months), while etoposide-platinum provided little benefit (2.4 months). Limited data of efficacy for targeted therapies and radionuclide therapy was available. Seven patients (17.1%) were also treated with local therapies, which were associated with improved overall survival (median not reached, hazard ratio, 0.23; P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS: Capecitabine-temozolomide and somatostatin analogs were associated with clinically meaningful benefit, and use of local therapies provided benefits in selected patients. Multidisciplinary discussion is essential to optimize individual outcomes in this heterogeneous population.
