- Impact of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on surgical and pathological results of gastric cancer patients: A case-control study(2020) CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; DIAS, Andre Roncon; CASTRIA, Tiago Biachi de; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELO, Ivan; RIBEIRO, UlyssesBackground and Objective Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by radical surgery represents a treatment option for patients with advanced gastric cancer (GC). This case-control study aimed to evaluate the clinicopathological characteristics and surgical outcomes of GC patients who received NACT, and its impact on survival. Methods We retrospectively reviewed all patients with GC who underwent gastrectomy. A total of 45 cases with NACT were matched with consecutive 45 patients who underwent upfront gastrectomy for the following characteristics: gender, age, gastrectomy type, lymphadenectomy extent, American Society of Anesthesiologists class, histological type, cT and cN. Results NACT group had smaller tumors (4.9 vs 6.8 cm P = .006), lower lymphatic invasion rate (40% vs 73.3%, P = .001), lower venous invasion rate (18% vs 46.7%, P = .003) and lower perineural invasion rate (35% vs 77.8%, P < .0001). The ypTNM stage was lower in patients treated with NACT (P < .001). The major postoperative complication (POC) rate was lower in NACT patients (6.7% vs 24.4%, P = .02), as was hospital length of stay (10.8 vs 17 days, P = .005). Conclusions NACT allowed nodal and tumor downstaging. In addition, patients who underwent NACT had fewer POC and shorter length of hospital stay.
- Lymph node regression after neoadjuvant chemotherapy: A predictor of survival in gastric cancer(2020) PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; DIAS, Andre Roncon; CARDILI, Leonardo; RIBEIRO, Renan Ribeiro e; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; CASTRIA, Tiago Biachi de; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECONELLO, Ivan; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; RIBEIRO JR., Ulysses; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza deBackground and Objective Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (nCMT) has been increasingly used in advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, the prognostic impact of tumor response remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate if tumor response at the primary site and lymph nodes (LN) correlate with survival in GC patients after nCMT. Methods Patients with gastric adenocarcinoma treated with nCMT followed by gastrectomy were evaluated. Residual tumor was graded from 0% to 100%, defining two groups: poor (PR) and major response (MR). LN regression rate (LNRR) was determined based on tumor/fibrosis examination at each LN and a cutoff value established by receiver operating characteristic curve. Results Among 62 cases, 20 (32.2%) had MR and 42 (67.7%) PR. Smaller size, diffuse histology, lower ypT status and less advanced stage were associated with the MR group. Based on cutoff value of 57, 45.6% and 54.4% patients were classified as low-LNRR and high-LNRR. High-LNRR correlated with absence of venous, lymphatic and perineural invasion, and less advanced stage. Survival was equivalent between MR and PR (P = .956). High-LNRR had better disease-free survival (DFS) than low-LNRR (P < .001). In multivariate analysis, only LNRR associated with DFS. Conclusion High-LNRR associates with DFS in GC treated with nCMT. Response at the primary site does not correlate with survival.
