Background

Despite favourable survival prognosis, the main concern for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is local recurrence, especially progression to invasive cancer. This study identified factors associated with breast events following DCIS treatment.

Methods

Women with unilateral DCIS between 2000 and 2022 were identified from New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation National Register. The primary endpoint was cumulative incidence of invasive breast cancer, ipsilateral (iIBC) or contralateral (iCBC). Secondary endpoints included ipsilateral breast event (IBE), in situ or invasive, and any breast event (IBE or CBC). Fine-Gray models were used to identify the associated factors and estimate subdistribution hazard ratios (sHRs).

Results

Among 5740 patients followed for a median duration of 4.8 years, the 5- and 10-year cumulative risks were 3.0% (95% CI, 2.4%, 3.5%) and 6.6% (95% CI, 5.7%, 7.6%) for iIBC, and 2.7% (95% CI, 2.2%, 3.3%) and 6.3% (95% CI, 5.4%, 7.3%) for iCBC, respectively. A higher risk of iIBC was observed in women aged under 45 at diagnosis (sHR, 1.81; 95% CI: 1.18, 2.79) or had DCIS size > 20 mm (sHR, 1.42; 1.05, 1.93), and a lower risk in those who received additional RT after BCS (HR: 0.61; 0.44, 0.84) or mastectomy (sHR, 0.21; 0.13, 0.32). Similar associations were observed for IBE and any breast event, for which surgical margin < 2 mm was also associated with a higher risk. Having surgery at a private facility, where higher-risk patients were likely to be treated, was associated with a higher risk of iCBC.

Conclusions

DCIS size, surgical approach, and age at diagnosis influenced the risk of breast events after DCIS, which may be considered in efforts to improve treatment strategies for higher-risk women.

背景:尽管有良好的生存预后,但导管原位癌(DCIS)的主要关注点是局部复发,特别是进展为浸润性癌。本研究确定了DCIS治疗后与乳腺事件相关的因素。方法:从新西兰乳腺癌基金会国家登记册中确定2000年至2022年间患有单侧DCIS的女性。主要终点是浸润性乳腺癌的累积发病率,同侧(iIBC)或对侧(iCBC)。次要终点包括同侧乳房事件(IBE),原位或侵袭性,以及任何乳房事件(IBE或CBC)。使用细灰色模型识别相关因素并估计亚分布风险比(sHRs)。结果:在中位随访时间为4.8年的5740例患者中,iIBC的5年和10年累积风险分别为3.0% (95% CI, 2.4%, 3.5%)和6.6% (95% CI, 5.7%, 7.6%), iCBC的5年和10年累积风险分别为2.7% (95% CI, 2.2%, 3.3%)和6.3% (95% CI, 5.4%, 7.3%)。诊断时年龄在45岁以下的女性患iIBC的风险较高(sHR, 1.81; 95% CI: 1.18, 2.79)或DCIS大小为bbb20 mm (sHR, 1.42; 1.05, 1.93),而在BCS后接受额外RT的女性患iIBC的风险较低(HR: 0.61; 0.44, 0.84)或乳房切除术(sHR, 0.21; 0.13, 0.32)。结论:DCIS的大小、手术入路和诊断时的年龄影响DCIS后乳房事件的风险,这可能被认为是改善高危妇女治疗策略的努力。

Background

To evaluate trends in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) referral perceptions and practices, we compared surveys of Hematology-Oncology (Hem-Onc) physicians conducted in 2015 (N = 150), 2019 (N = 302), and 2024 (N = 183) and reported changes over time.

Methods

Eligible participants included Hem-Onc physicians in the United States seeing at least 10 hematologic malignancy patients in the last year. Questions covered perceptions of HCT, referral practices, perceived barriers to referral, and endorsement of HCT education and patient support resources.

Results

There were positive trends in HCT perceptions, increased expected HCT benefit, and positive outcomes with older AML patients. Overall reported disease-specific referral rates increased over the survey periods. Participants reported earlier HCT referral timing across the survey time periods for all diagnoses, as well as increased referral of AML in first complete remission (vs. later stages of disease). While reported barriers to HCT referral persist, 2024 responses (vs. 2019) had significant reduction in concern over finding a suitable HCT donor, adverse post-HCT outcomes, patient age, and medical comorbidities or psychosocial barriers to HCT. Across all hematologic malignancies in 2024, the average maximum referral age was 73.5 years. Respondents indicated a strong desire for additional physician education and patient-level support.

Conclusions

We identified positive trends in HCT perceptions and referral practices, and reduced barriers. Encouragingly, these trends suggest that evidence surrounding HCT benefit and broadened eligibility for HCT are reaching the larger Hem-Onc community, and this may address historical barriers to access. Ongoing education and outreach are needed to facilitate additional progress.

背景:为了评估同种异体造血细胞移植(HCT)转诊认知和实践的趋势,我们比较了2015年(N = 150)、2019年(N = 302)和2024年(N = 183)对血液肿瘤学(Hem-Onc)医生进行的调查,并报告了随时间的变化。方法:符合条件的参与者包括美国的Hem-Onc医生,在过去的一年中至少治疗了10例血液恶性肿瘤患者。问题包括对HCT的认知、转诊实践、转诊障碍以及对HCT教育和患者支持资源的认可。结果:老年AML患者对HCT的认知有积极的趋势,预期HCT获益增加,结果积极。总体报告的特定疾病转诊率在调查期间有所增加。参与者报告了调查期间所有诊断的早期HCT转诊时间,以及首次完全缓解的AML转诊时间增加(与疾病后期相比)。虽然报告的HCT转诊障碍仍然存在,但2024年的应答(与2019年相比)对寻找合适的HCT供体、HCT后不良结果、患者年龄、HCT的医疗合并症或社会心理障碍的担忧显著减少。在2024年所有血液恶性肿瘤中,平均最大转诊年龄为73.5岁。受访者表示强烈希望获得额外的医生教育和患者层面的支持。结论:我们确定了HCT认知和转诊实践的积极趋势,并减少了障碍。令人鼓舞的是,这些趋势表明,有关HCT益处和扩大HCT资格的证据正在向更大的Hem-Onc社区传播,这可能会解决获得HCT的历史障碍。需要不断开展教育和外联活动,以促进进一步进展。

Introduction

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and despite advances in frontline therapies such as rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin hydrochloride (hydroxydaunorubicin), vincristine sulfate (Oncovin), and prednisone, approximately 30%–40% of patients develop relapsed or refractory (rel/ref) disease. This subgroup has historically faced poor prognoses with limited treatment options, prompting the development of novel immunotherapeutic strategies. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapy and bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have emerged as transformative approaches in this setting.

Methods

This narrative review compares these therapies across multiple domains, including mechanisms of action, clinical efficacy, safety profiles, logistics, cost, and accessibility.

Results

CAR T therapies have demonstrated durable complete response rates (40%–60%) and extended progression-free survival (median 11–12.5 months), but they are limited by complex manufacturing, high cost, and potentially severe toxicities. In contrast, BsAbs offer immediate, off-the-shelf availability, with promising efficacy and a more favorable safety profile that enables outpatient administration, although long-term durability remains under investigation.

Conclusion

This review provides clinicians with a comprehensive comparison to support evidence-based treatment selection in rel/ref DLBCL.

弥漫性大b细胞淋巴瘤(DLBCL)是最常见的非霍奇金淋巴瘤亚型,尽管利妥昔单抗、环磷酰胺、盐酸多柔比星(hydroxydaunorubicin)、硫酸长新碱(Oncovin)和强尼松等一线治疗取得了进展,但仍有大约30%-40%的患者出现复发或难治性疾病(rel/ref)。这一亚组历来面临预后不良和治疗选择有限的问题,促使新的免疫治疗策略的发展。嵌合抗原受体T细胞(CAR - T)治疗和双特异性抗体(BsAbs)已经成为这种情况下的变革性方法。方法:这篇叙述性综述从多个领域比较了这些疗法,包括作用机制、临床疗效、安全性、物流、成本和可及性。结果:CAR - T疗法显示出持久的完全缓解率(40%-60%)和延长的无进展生存期(中位11-12.5个月),但它们受到制造复杂、成本高和潜在严重毒性的限制。相比之下,bsab提供即时、现成的可用性,具有良好的疗效和更有利的安全性,可以在门诊使用,尽管长期耐久性仍在研究中。结论:本综述为临床医生提供了全面的比较,以支持基于证据的治疗选择在rel/ref DLBCL。

Introduction

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is an aggressive type of malignancy. Recent advancements have highlighted the importance of the tumor immune microenvironment in therapeutic responses and prognosis. However, the lack of a mouse-derived ICC cell line and current mouse models limit explorations of the TME in ICC. Therefore, establishing suitable preclinical models is critical.

Methods

In the present study, an ICC mouse model was established using hydrodynamic transfection. Primary ICC cells were isolated, purified, and cultured in the liver tissues of these mice. Cellular behaviors, molecular characterization, and genetic profiles were evaluated in vitro. The tumorigenic and metastatic potential of the cells was determined in vivo. Drug sensitivity was tested using organoids and micro-dissected tumor tissues 3D models.

Results

An ICC mouse model was successfully established based on pathological identification. Characterization confirmed that the MCA23 cell line was of ICC origin and maintained the morphological and molecular features of the primary tumor. The cells exhibited robust proliferative, migratory, and invasive capabilities, enabling the rapid formation of syngeneic tumors and metastases that were highly similar to the primary tumor. Genetic analysis revealed that the cell line was a new mouse-derived cell line with cancer cell-karyotype characteristics. Drug testing revealed varied responses to commonly used clinical chemotherapeutics for MCA23 tumors and metastases.

Conclusion

MCA23 cell line provides a valuable experimental model for studying ICC pathogenesis, progression, metastasis, and drug-resistance mechanisms. This model holds considerable promise for investigating the tumor immune microenvironment and potential immunotherapeutic approaches for advanced ICC.

肝内胆管癌(ICC)是一种侵袭性恶性肿瘤。最近的进展强调了肿瘤免疫微环境在治疗反应和预后中的重要性。然而,缺乏小鼠来源的ICC细胞系和当前的小鼠模型限制了对ICC中TME的探索。因此,建立合适的临床前模型至关重要。方法:采用水动力转染法建立小鼠ICC模型。原代ICC细胞被分离、纯化并在这些小鼠的肝组织中培养。体外评估细胞行为、分子表征和遗传谱。在体内测定细胞的致瘤性和转移潜能。使用类器官和微解剖肿瘤组织3D模型测试药物敏感性。结果:在病理鉴定的基础上成功建立了ICC小鼠模型。鉴定证实MCA23细胞系为ICC来源,并保持原发肿瘤的形态学和分子特征。这些细胞表现出强大的增殖、迁移和侵袭能力,能够快速形成与原发肿瘤高度相似的同基因肿瘤和转移灶。遗传分析表明,该细胞系是一种具有癌细胞核型特征的小鼠源性新细胞系。药物测试显示,MCA23肿瘤和转移瘤对常用临床化疗药物的反应各不相同。结论:MCA23细胞系为研究ICC的发病、进展、转移及耐药机制提供了有价值的实验模型。该模型为研究晚期ICC的肿瘤免疫微环境和潜在的免疫治疗方法提供了可观的前景。

Background

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is one of the most malignant solid cancers. As surgery is the only cure, prediction of long-term survival post-resection is critical to guide patient selection for the subsequent treatment. Tumour immune evasion plays a key role in PDA tumorigenesis.

Materials and Methods

Using a streamlined protocol, we developed a clinicopathological prediction model for the overall survival of patients with PDA after resection by integrating tumour immunological features and clinical data. Multiplex immunohistochemistry was performed using human tumour microarray samples. The results were combined with retrospectively collected clinical data of 79 patients. Variables were selected by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression with 10-fold cross-validation to develop the prediction model. The performance of the model was assessed using the concordance index, receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration plot and decision curve analysis. The model was validated by bootstrap resampling.

Results

Cancer cell MHC I intensity, CD4+ T cell to tumour cell ratio, resection margin status and tumour T stage were identified for prediction model development using Cox proportional hazard regression. Discrimination of developed model was moderate on the time-dependent area under curve at one (0.698), three (0.765) and five (0.825) years. A small decrease in the overall c-index from 0.67 to 0.652 was shown in the internal validation by bootstrapping.

Conclusion

Our protocol provided a framework for developing a complex model that will significantly contribute to clinical practice.

背景:胰导管腺癌(Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, PDA)是最恶性的实体癌之一。由于手术是唯一的治疗方法,因此预测术后长期生存对于指导患者选择后续治疗至关重要。肿瘤免疫逃逸在PDA肿瘤发生中起关键作用。材料和方法:采用简化的方案,我们通过整合肿瘤免疫学特征和临床数据,建立了PDA切除术后患者总体生存的临床病理预测模型。使用人类肿瘤微阵列样本进行多重免疫组化。结果与回顾性收集的79例患者的临床资料相结合。采用最小绝对收缩和选择算子(LASSO)回归方法选择变量,并进行10倍交叉验证,建立预测模型。采用一致性指数、受试者工作特征曲线、校正图和决策曲线分析对模型的性能进行评价。通过自举重采样对模型进行了验证。结果:采用Cox比例风险回归,确定了肿瘤细胞MHC I强度、CD4+ T细胞与肿瘤细胞的比值、切除边缘状态和肿瘤T分期,用于预测模型的建立。在1年(0.698)、3年(0.765)和5年(0.825)时,发达模型对曲线下时间依赖面积的判别是中等的。在内部验证中,总体c-index从0.67下降到0.652。结论:我们的方案为开发一个复杂的模型提供了一个框架,这将对临床实践有重大贡献。

Purpose

Metaplastic breast cancer (metBC) is a rare subtype of breast cancer known for its challenging management. The impact of this histological subtype on prognosis remains unclear.

Methods

Data were collected from the Swedish Cancer Registry between 2008 and 2018. Patients with metBC were matched 2:1 with breast cancer cases of no special type (NST). Survival outcomes were analyzed using cause-specific hazard models for breast cancer specific survival (BCSS) and Cox proportional-hazards models for overall survival (OS).

Results

In total, 127 metBC patients were matched 2:1 with 245 NST patients, with a median follow-up period of 54 months. When adjusted for matching variables and treatment-related characteristics, metBC was not significantly associated with either BCSS (cause-specific Hazard Ratio (HR): 1.13; 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.66–1.92) or OS (HR: 1.23; 95% CI: 0.83–1.82).

Conclusion

With appropriate treatment, metBC may have survival outcomes comparable to NST. Larger studies with longer follow-up are needed to provide further insights.

目的:化生性乳腺癌(metBC)是一种罕见的乳腺癌亚型,以其具有挑战性的治疗而闻名。这种组织学亚型对预后的影响尚不清楚。方法:收集2008年至2018年瑞典癌症登记处的数据。metBC患者与无特殊类型(NST)乳腺癌患者的比例为2:1。使用乳腺癌特异性生存(BCSS)的病因特异性风险模型和总生存(OS)的Cox比例风险模型分析生存结果。结果:共有127例metBC患者与245例NST患者2:1匹配,中位随访时间为54个月。经匹配变量和治疗相关特征调整后,metBC与BCSS均无显著相关性(病因特异性风险比(HR): 1.13;95%置信区间(CI): 0.66-1.92)或OS (HR: 1.23; 95% CI: 0.83-1.82)。结论:通过适当的治疗,metBC可能具有与NST相当的生存结果。需要更大的研究和更长的随访时间来提供进一步的见解。

Introduction

Metformin, the common anti-hyperglycemic agent, is emerging with pharmacological significance as an effective anti-cancer modulator. Its efficacy as an anti-cancer modulator is reported in pre-clinical and clinical studies. Therefore, an attempt was made to identify the possible in vitro anti-cancer molecular mechanisms studied on breast cancer (BC) cell lines.

Methods

An advanced literature search was conducted in the PubMed database using search terms “Metformin, Cell culture, Breast neoplasms.” Different anti-cancer molecular mechanisms induced by metformin (MET) identified in cell culture studies are presented in this paper.

Results

It was identified that MET induces molecular pathways that exert anti-cancer effects when treated on BC cells. Inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation, adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase mediated anticancer effects, anti-proliferation and inhibition of cell migration, alteration of tumor micro-environment, synergetic effects with conventional chemotherapies and other potential molecules, induced apoptosis and ferroptosis were mainly identified as MET-induced pathways that affect BC cells.

Conclusion

Metformin induces diverse anti-cancer biochemical pathways through which it exhibits a potential to be used as an anti-cancer therapeutic in BC.

简介:二甲双胍作为一种有效的抗癌调节剂,正逐渐成为一种具有药理意义的常用降糖药物。其作为抗癌调节剂的疗效在临床前和临床研究中均有报道。因此,我们试图在乳腺癌细胞系上发现可能的体外抗癌分子机制。方法:在PubMed数据库中使用搜索词“二甲双胍,细胞培养,乳腺肿瘤”进行高级文献检索。本文介绍了在细胞培养研究中发现的二甲双胍(metformin, MET)诱导的不同抗癌分子机制。结果:发现MET对BC细胞可诱导具有抗癌作用的分子通路。氧化磷酸化抑制、单磷酸腺苷活化蛋白激酶介导的抗癌作用、抗增殖和抑制细胞迁移、改变肿瘤微环境、与常规化疗等潜在分子协同作用、诱导凋亡和铁凋亡等主要被确定为met诱导的BC细胞作用途径。结论:二甲双胍诱导多种抗癌生化途径,在BC中具有潜在的抗癌治疗价值。

Introduction

This nationwide case–control study investigated the risk of second primary cancers among cervical cancer (CC) survivors compared to cancer-free women.

Methods

Women aged ≥ 18 diagnosed with CC from 1987 to 2012 were identified via the Danish Cancer Registry (DCR) and matched 1:5 by age and residence to cancer-free controls. A subpopulation with histologically confirmed squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix (SCC-C) was defined using the Danish Pathology Register. Adjusted sub-hazard ratios (aSHR) for subsequent primary cancers were estimated.

Results

The study included 10,728 CC cases and 53,597 matched controls, including 7910 SCC-C cases and 39,358 controls. Over a median follow-up of 14.2 years, CC survivors had a modest but statistically significant reduction in the overall risk of second primary cancers (aSHR: 0.87; 95% CI, 0.81–0.93), including lower risks of colorectal cancer (aSHR: 0.77; 95% CI, 0.63–0.93), breast cancer (aSHR: 0.76; 95% CI, 0.67–0.87), and malignant melanoma (aSHR: 0.59; 95% CI, 0.42–0.84). In contrast, the risk of lung cancer was increased (aSHR: 1.33; 95% CI, 1.15–1.54). Among SCC-C survivors, the risk of second SCC was increased at both HPV-related sites (aSHR: 1.78; 95% CI, 1.18–2.68) and non-HPV sites (aSHR: 2.59; 95% CI, 1.92–3.47), primarily due to a marked increased risk of lung SCC (aSHR: 2.88; 95% CI, 1.97–4.20).

Discussion

Although the overall risk of second primary cancers was lower among CC survivors compared to controls, the increased incidence of second SCCs, particularly lung SCC, highlights the need for targeted long-term surveillance strategies.

简介:这项全国性的病例对照研究调查了宫颈癌(CC)幸存者与无癌妇女发生第二原发癌的风险。方法:通过丹麦癌症登记处(DCR)确定1987年至2012年诊断为CC的年龄≥18岁的女性,并按年龄和居住地与无癌对照进行1:5匹配。一个亚群与组织学证实宫颈鳞状细胞癌(SCC-C)被定义使用丹麦病理登记。评估随后原发性癌症的调整亚危险比(aSHR)。结果:该研究纳入10,728例CC病例和53,597例匹配对照,其中7910例SCC-C病例和39,358例对照。在14.2年的中位随访中,CC幸存者患第二原发癌症的总体风险(aSHR: 0.87; 95% CI, 0.81-0.93)有适度但有统计学意义的降低,包括结肠直肠癌(aSHR: 0.77; 95% CI, 0.63-0.93)、乳腺癌(aSHR: 0.76; 95% CI, 0.67-0.87)和恶性黑色素瘤(aSHR: 0.59; 95% CI, 0.42-0.84)的风险降低。相反,肺癌的风险增加(aSHR: 1.33; 95% CI, 1.15-1.54)。在SCC- c幸存者中,在hpv相关部位(aSHR: 1.78; 95% CI, 1.18-2.68)和非hpv部位(aSHR: 2.59; 95% CI, 1.92-3.47)发生第二次SCC的风险均增加,主要是由于肺部SCC的风险显著增加(aSHR: 2.88; 95% CI, 1.97-4.20)。讨论:尽管与对照组相比,CC幸存者中第二原发癌的总体风险较低,但第二SCC,特别是肺SCC的发病率增加,强调了有针对性的长期监测策略的必要性。

Purpose

Prediction models can contribute to disparities in care by performing unequally across demographic groups. While fairness-aware methods have been explored for binary outcomes, applications to survival analysis remain limited. This study compares two fairness-aware deep learning survival models to mitigate racial disparities in predicting survival after radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer.

Methods

We used the National Cancer Database to train deep Cox proportional hazards models for overall survival. Two fairness-aware approaches, Fair Deep Cox Proportional Hazards Model (Fair DCPH) and Group Distributionally Robust Optimization Deep Cox Proportional Hazards Model (GroupDRO DCPH), were compared against a standard Deep Cox model (Baseline). Model fairness was assessed via cross-group and within-group concordance indices (C-index).

Results

Among 418,968 included patients, 78.5% were White, with smaller proportions of Black (13.2%), Hispanic (4.5%), Asian (1.9%), and Other (2.0%) patients. The baseline DCPH model achieved a cross-group C-index of 0.699 for White patients but showed reduced performance for Black (0.678) and Hispanic (0.689) patients. Fairness-aware models improved cross-group C-indices; for Black patients, cross-group C-index increased to 0.692 (Fair DCPH) and 0.696 (GroupDRO DCPH); for Hispanic patients, to 0.693 and 0.697, respectively. Cross-group C-index also improved in the Asian subgroup, where the C-index rose from 0.696 (Baseline DCPH) to 0.702 (Fair DCPH) and 0.707 (GroupDRO DCPH), with minimal performance loss observed for White patients.

Conclusion

We benchmark two fairness-aware survival models that address racial disparities in post-prostatectomy survival prediction. These methods can be extended to other time-to-event models to ensure equitable care supported by fair prediction models.

目的:预测模型可以通过在人口群体中表现不平等来促进护理差异。虽然已经探索了二元结果的公平意识方法,但在生存分析中的应用仍然有限。本研究比较了两种公平感知的深度学习生存模型,以减轻在预测前列腺癌根治性前列腺切除术后生存方面的种族差异。方法:我们使用国家癌症数据库来训练总生存率的深度Cox比例风险模型。两种公平感知方法,公平深度Cox比例风险模型(Fair DCPH)和组分布鲁棒优化深度Cox比例风险模型(GroupDRO DCPH),与标准深度Cox模型(Baseline)进行了比较。通过组间和组内一致性指数(C-index)评估模型公平性。结果:在纳入的418968例患者中,白人占78.5%,黑人(13.2%)、西班牙裔(4.5%)、亚裔(1.9%)和其他(2.0%)患者的比例较小。基线DCPH模型在白人患者中实现了0.699的跨组c指数,但在黑人(0.678)和西班牙裔(0.689)患者中表现较差。公平意识模型改善了跨组c指数;黑人患者跨组c指数分别升高至0.692 (Fair DCPH)和0.696 (GroupDRO DCPH);西班牙裔患者分别为0.693和0.697。亚洲亚组的跨组c -指数也有所改善,c -指数从0.696(基线DCPH)上升到0.702(公平DCPH)和0.707 (GroupDRO DCPH),白人患者的表现下降最小。结论:我们对两种具有公平意识的生存模型进行了基准测试,以解决前列腺切除术后生存预测中的种族差异。这些方法可以扩展到其他时间到事件模型,以确保公平的预测模型支持公平的护理。

Introduction

Sleep problems are common among cancer patients. The relationship between sleep disruption and clinical outcomes after colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis remains poorly understood. We investigated associations of sleep disruption with survival and recurrence in patients with CRC.

Methods

CRC patients with stages I–IV (N = 895) were included in this study. Self-reported sleep disturbance was assessed presurgery using the sleep item from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core-30 and classified into “no/mild” or “moderate/severe” sleep disturbance. Cox-proportional hazard models were computed (HRs and 95% confidence intervals) to investigate associations of sleep disturbance with overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and risk of recurrence, adjusting for age, sex, body mass index, tumor stage and site, and study site.

Results

Thirty percent of patients reported moderate/severe sleep disturbance. N = 190 (21%) were deceased after a median follow-up of 31 months, whereas 74 patients (15%) had a recurrence. Patients with moderate/severe vs. no/mild sleep disturbance had worse OS (HR = 1.46; 95% CI = 1.07–1.98; p = 0.02). There were no significant associations for sleep disturbance with DFS and risk of recurrence. Stratified analyses indicated that the worse OS rates due to sleep disturbance were stronger in patients who were middle-aged and older, male, overweight/obese, diagnosed with rectal cancer and stage I–III.

Conclusions

Poor sleep is common among CRC patients and is associated with worse overall survival. These findings highlight the potential value of preoperative sleep screening as a way to identify patients at higher risk of poor outcomes, warranting further investigation in future studies.

睡眠问题在癌症患者中很常见。睡眠中断与结直肠癌(CRC)诊断后临床结果之间的关系仍然知之甚少。我们调查了CRC患者睡眠中断与生存和复发的关系。方法:研究纳入I-IV期结直肠癌患者(N = 895)。手术前使用欧洲癌症研究与治疗组织生活质量问卷- core -30中的睡眠项目对自我报告的睡眠障碍进行评估,并将其分为“无/轻度”或“中度/严重”睡眠障碍。计算Cox-proportional hazard models (HRs和95%置信区间)来研究睡眠障碍与总生存期(OS)、无病生存期(DFS)和复发风险之间的关系,并根据年龄、性别、体重指数、肿瘤分期和部位以及研究地点进行调整。结果:30%的患者报告中度/重度睡眠障碍。中位随访31个月后,190例(21%)患者死亡,74例(15%)患者复发。中度/重度睡眠障碍患者与无/轻度睡眠障碍患者的OS较差(HR = 1.46; 95% CI = 1.07-1.98; p = 0.02)。睡眠障碍与DFS和复发风险无显著关联。分层分析表明,在中老年、男性、超重/肥胖、诊断为直肠癌和I-III期的患者中,睡眠障碍导致的不良OS发生率更高。结论:睡眠不足在结直肠癌患者中很常见,并与较差的总生存率相关。这些发现强调了术前睡眠筛查作为一种识别预后不良风险较高的患者的潜在价值,值得在未来的研究中进一步研究。试验注册:ClinicalTrials.gov标识符:NCT02328677。
