conferenceObject PREOPERATIVE CHEMOTHERAPY VERSUS UPFRONT SURGERY FOR STAGE CT4 GASTRIC CANCER: WHAT IS THE BEST STRATEGY?(2022) DIAS, Andre R.; PEREIRA, Marina A.; RAMOS, Marcus F.; RIBEIRO, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos- INTRAPERITONEAL CHEMOTHERAPY FOR GASTRIC CANCER WITH PERITONEAL CARCINOMATOSIS: STUDY PROTOCOL OF A PHASE II TRIAL(2023) RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; VICTOR, Carolina Ribeiro; GREGORIO, Joao Vitor Antunes Marques; ALBAN, Luciana Bastos Valente; MONIZ, Camila Motta Venchiarutti; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza De; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo Gehm; JUNIOR, Ulysses Ribeiro; DIAS, Andre RonconBackground: Peritoneal carcinomatosis in gastric cancer is considered a fatal disease, without expectation of definitive cure. As systemic chemotherapy is not sufficient to contain the disease, a multimodal approach associating intraperitoneal chemotherapy with surgery may represent an alternative for these cases.Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in stage IV gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.Methods: This study is a single institutional single-arm prospective clinical trial phase II (NCT05541146). Patients with the following inclusion criteria undergo implantation of a peritoneal catheter for intraperitoneal chemotherapy: Stage IV gastric adenocarcinoma; age 18-75 years; Peritoneal carcinomatosis with peritoneal cancer index<12; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0/1; good clinical status; and lab exams within normal limits. The study protocol consists of four cycles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with paclitaxel associated with systemic chemotherapy. After treatment, patients with peritoneal response assessed by staging laparoscopy undergo conversion gastrectomy.Results: The primary outcome is the rate of complete peritoneal response. Progression-free and overall survivals are other outcomes evaluated. The study started in July 2022, and patients will be screened for inclusion until 30 are enrolled.Conclusions: Therapies for advanced gastric cancer patients have been evaluated in clinical trials but without success in patients with peritoneal metastasis. The treatment proposed in this trial can be promising, with easy catheter implantation and ambulatory intraperitoneal chemotherapy regime. Verifying the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel with systemic chemotherapy is an important progress that this study intends to investigate.
- Prognostic implications of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in association with programmed cell death ligand 1 expression in remnant gastric cancer(2022) PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; DIAS, Andre Roncon; CARDILI, Leonardo; MORAES, Rafael Dyer Rodrigues de; RIBEIRO, Renan Ribeiro E.; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza de; JR, Ulysses RibeiroObjective: Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is usually associated with a worse prognosis. As they are less common and very heterogeneous tumors, new prognostic and reliable determinants are required to predict patients' clinical course for RGC. This study aimed to investigate the tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) status as prognostic biomarkers in a cohort of patients with RGC to develop an immune -related score.Methods: Patients with gastric cancer (GC) who underwent curative intent gastrectomy were retrospectively investigated. RGC resections with histological diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma were enrolled in the study. The risk score based on immune parameters was developed using binary logistic regression analysis. RGCs were divided into high-risk (HR), intermediate-risk (IR), and low-risk (LR) groups based on their immune score. The markers (CD3+, CD4+/CD8+ T cells and PD-L1) were selected for their potential prognostic, therapeutic value, and evaluated by immunohistochemistry (IHC).Results: A total of 42 patients with RGC were enrolled in the study. The score based on immune parameters exhibited an accuracy of 79% [the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)=0.79, 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.63-0.94, P=0.002], and the population was divided into 3 prognostic groups: 10 (23.8%) patients were classified as LR, 15 (35.7%) as IR, and 17 (40.5%) as HR groups. There were no differences in clinicopathological and surgical characteristics between the three groups. In survival analysis, HR and IR groups had worse disease-free survival and overall survival rates compared to the LR group. In the multivariate analysis, lymph node metastasis and the immune score risk groups were independent factors related to worse survival.Conclusions: A scoring system with immune-related markers was able to distinguish prognostic groups of RGC associated with survival. Accordingly, tumor-infiltrating immune lymphocytes and PD-L1 status may serve as a potential prognostic biomarker for patients with RGC.
- FAILURE TO RESCUE AFTER GASTRECTOMY: A NEW INDICATOR OF SURGICAL QUALITY(2023) HONG, Stefany; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; DIAS, Andre Roncon; JR, Ulysses Ribeiro; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama PertilleBackground: The main treatment modality for gastric cancer is surgical resection with lymphadenectomy. Despite advances in perioperative care, major surgical complications can occur in up to 20% of cases. To determine the quality of surgical care employed, a new indicator called failure to rescue (FTR) was proposed, which assesses the percentage of patients who die after complications occur.Aims: To assess the rate of FTR after gastrectomy and factors associated with its occurrence.Methods: Patients with gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy with curative intent were retrospectively evaluated. According to the occurrence of postoperative complications, patients were divided into FTR group (grade V complications) and rescued group (grade III/IV complications).Results: Among the 731 patients, 114 had major complications. Of these patients, 76 (66.7%) were successfully treated for the complication (rescued group), while 38 (33.3%) died (FTR group). Patients in the FTR group were older (p=0.008; p<0.05), had lower levels of hemoglobin (p=0.021; p<0.05) and albumin (p=0.002; p<0.05), and a higher frequency of ASA III/IV (p=0.033; p<0.05). There were no differences between the groups regarding surgical and pathological characteristics. Clinical complications had a higher mortality rate (40.0% vs 30.4%), with pulmonary complications (50.2%) and infections (46.2%) being the most lethal. Patients with major complications grade III/IV had worse survival than those without complications.Conclusions: The FTR rate was 33.3%. Advanced age, worse performance, and nutritional parameters were associated with FTR.
- Preoperative albumin-bilirubin score is a prognostic factor for gastric cancer patients after curative gastrectomy(2023) SZOR, Daniel Jose; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; TUSTUMI, Francisco; DIAS, Andre Roncon; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; RIBEIRO, UlyssesBACKGROUNDAlbumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score is an indicator of liver dysfunction and is useful for predicting prognosis of hepatocellular carcinomas. Currently, this liver function index has been used to predict prognosis in other neoplasms. However, the significance of ALBI score in gastric cancer (GC) after radical resection has not been elucidated.AIMTo evaluate the prognostic value of the preoperative ALBI status in patients with GC who received curative treatment.METHODSPatients with GC who underwent curative intended gastrectomy were retrospectively evaluated from our prospective database. ALBI score was calculated as follows: (log10 bilirubin x 0.660) + (albumin x -0.085). The receiver operating characteristic curve with area under the curve (AUC) was plotted to evaluate the ability of ALBI score in predicting recurrence or death. The optimal cutoff value was determined by maximizing Youden's index, and patients were divided into low and high-ALBI groups. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the survival, and the log-rank test was used for comparison between groups.RESULTSA total of 361 patients (235 males) were enrolled. The median ALBI value for the entire cohort was -2.89 (IQR -3.13; -2.59). The AUC for ALBI score was 0.617 (95%CI: 0.556-0.673, P < 0.001), and the cutoff value was -2.82. Accordingly, 211 (58.4%) patients were classified as low-ALBI group and 150 (41.6%) as high-ALBI group. Older age (P = 0.005), lower hemoglobin level (P < 0.001), American Society of Anesthesiologists classification III/IV (P = 0.001), and D1 lymphadenectomy P = 0.003) were more frequent in the high-ALBI group. There was no difference between both groups in terms of Lauren histological type, depth of tumor invasion (pT), presence of lymph node metastasis (pN), and pathologic (pTNM) stage. Major postoperative complication, and mortality at 30 and 90 days were higher in the high-ALBI patients. In the survival analysis, the high-ALBI group had worse disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to those with low-ALBI (P < 0.001). When stratified by pTNM, the difference between ALBI groups was maintained in stage I/II and stage III CG for DFS (P < 0.001 and P = 0.021, respectively); and for OS (P < 0.001 and P = 0.063, respectively). In multivariate analysis, total gastrectomy, advanced pT stage, presence of lymph node metastasis and high-ALBI were independent factors associated with worse survival.CONCLUSIONThe preoperative ALBI score is able to predict the outcomes of patients with GC, where high-ALBI patients have worse prognosis. Also, ALBI score allows risk stratification of patients within the same pTNM stages, and represents an independent risk factor associated with survival.
