Abstract
Purpose: Meningiomas are the most frequent primary intracranial malignancy. While surgical resection can confer long term tumor control, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is often used for small, asymptomatic tumors in the adjuvant setting. Frailty has been associated with increased rates of peri-operative morbidity but has yet to be defined in the setting of SRS for meningiomas. We therefore sought to examine the relationship between frailty and clinical/radiographic outcomes of patients with meningiomas who have undergone SRS.
Methods: A single-center, retrospective cohort study classified patients by their 5-factor modified frailty index (mFI-5) score into pre-frail (0-1) and frail (2-5) at the time of SRS treatment. Evaluations of overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), local control (LC), and distant control (DC) were performed using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to further define factors associated with OS/PFS.
Results: 94 patients met inclusion criteria and underwent SRS for meningioma treatment from 2019 to 2023. Analyses compared prefrail (0-1) and frail (2-5) individuals. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated a near significant association between frailty and OS (HR 3.66, 95% CI 0.49-26.8 p = 0.05) with 3-year OS rates of 75.4% in the pre-frail versus 36.6% in the frail group. However, a significant relationship was demonstrated between frailty and PFS (HR: 2.95 95% CI 1.12-7.81, p = 0.02) with 3-year PFS rates of 90.5% in the pre-frail group versus 49.2% in the frail group. Univariable regression analysis demonstrated that frailty, prior surgical excision, and cumulative tumor volume predicted PFS.
Conclusion: Frailty, as assessed by the mFI-5, did not independently predict OS but did predict PFS in individuals with meningioma undergoing SRS.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Neuro-Oncology is a multi-disciplinary journal encompassing basic, applied, and clinical investigations in all research areas as they relate to cancer and the central nervous system. It provides a single forum for communication among neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiotherapists, medical oncologists, neuropathologists, neurodiagnosticians, and laboratory-based oncologists conducting relevant research. The Journal of Neuro-Oncology does not seek to isolate the field, but rather to focus the efforts of many disciplines in one publication through a format which pulls together these diverse interests. More than any other field of oncology, cancer of the central nervous system requires multi-disciplinary approaches. To alleviate having to scan dozens of journals of cell biology, pathology, laboratory and clinical endeavours, JNO is a periodical in which current, high-quality, relevant research in all aspects of neuro-oncology may be found.
