Treatment Outcomes of Patients with Ependymoma Receiving Radiotherapy: A Single Institution Experience.
Introduction: This study explored the failure pattern and clinical outcomes in patients with ependymoma undergoing radiotherapy.
Methods: Between January 2004 and June 2022, we included 32 patients with ependymoma who underwent radiotherapy as part of the multimodality treatment at our institution. Of these, 27 (84.4%) underwent adjuvant radiotherapy, four received radiotherapy after local recurrence, and one received definitive CyberKnife radiotherapy (21 Gy in three fractions). The median prescribed dose was 54 Gy in patients who received conventional radiotherapy. We analyzed the local progression-free survival (LPFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and potential prognostic factors.
Results: The median age was 29.8 years. Approximately 28.1% were pediatric patients. Fifteen tumors (46.9%) were World Health Organization (WHO) grade II, 10 (31.3%) were WHO grade III, and seven (22.8%) were WHO grade I. Among them, 15 patients (46.9%) had posterior fossa tumors, 10 (31.3%) had supratentorial tumors, and seven (22.8%) had spinal tumors. Of the 31 patients who underwent upfront surgical resection, 19 (61.3%) underwent gross total resection or near-total resection. Seventeen of 19 patients with first failures (89.5%) had isolated local recurrences. Of the 19 patients with disease progression, 11 (57.9%) were disease free or had stable disease after salvage therapy, and five (26.3%) had disease-related mortality. Most of the first local recurrences after radiotherapy occurred infield (13 of 16, 81.3%). The 5-year LPFS, DMFS, PFS, and OS rates were 48.5%, 89.6%, 45.1%, and 88.4%, respectively, at a median follow-up of 6.25 years. Subtotal resection was associated with poorer LPFS and PFS in patients with intracranial ependymoma (hazard ratio = 3.69, p = 0.018, for LPFS; hazard ratio = 3.20, p = 0.029, for PFS).
Conclusion: Incorporating radiotherapy into multimodal treatment has led to favorable outcomes in patients with ependymoma, and the extent of resection is a prognostic factor for the local control of intracranial ependymoma.
期刊介绍：
Although laboratory and clinical cancer research need to be closely linked, observations at the basic level often remain removed from medical applications. This journal works to accelerate the translation of experimental results into the clinic, and back again into the laboratory for further investigation. The fundamental purpose of this effort is to advance clinically-relevant knowledge of cancer, and improve the outcome of prevention, diagnosis and treatment of malignant disease. The journal publishes significant clinical studies from cancer programs around the world, along with important translational laboratory findings, mini-reviews (invited and submitted) and in-depth discussions of evolving and controversial topics in the oncology arena. A unique feature of the journal is a new section which focuses on rapid peer-review and subsequent publication of short reports of phase 1 and phase 2 clinical cancer trials, with a goal of insuring that high-quality clinical cancer research quickly enters the public domain, regardless of the trial’s ultimate conclusions regarding efficacy or toxicity.
