  • HER-2/neu Status and Post-Operative Survival in Epithelial Ovarian Carcinoma: A Meta-analysis

    Objective To use a meta-analysis method to establish quantitatively the association between the HER-2/neu gene amplification/enhanced protein expression status and the 5-year post-operative survival rate or median survival time in women with epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Methods  We searched and screened Chinese and English literature published since 1989 to collect all retrospective cohort studies on the prognostic significance of HER-2/neu status in this population. The survival data were analyzed using Ludwig’s centered signed rank and the DerSimonian-Laird method. Results In total, 25 studies involving 3 251 patients were included. HER-2/neu was positive in 27.1% (95%CI 0 to 54.8%) of patients, which was not related to the pathological stage, type or grade of epithelial ovarian carcinoma. In HER-2/neu positive cases, the median survival time was shortened by 0.65 years, and the 5-year survival rate was lowered. The hazard ratio (HR) for mortality was 1.22 (95%C 1.09 to 1.36). By subgroup analysis, HER-2/neu protein expression was found to be most significant in prognostic assessment. Patients with a b positive value of HER-2/neu had an increased HR for the 5-year survival; and platinum-based chemotherapy was demonstrated to be less effective in HER-2/neu positive ovarian carcinoma. Conclusion In gynecological oncology, it is reasonable to measure HER-2/neu as a routine pathological marker to predict a patient’s prognosis and to determine the most appropriate adjuvant chemotherapy regimen.

  • The 5-year survival rate of 11 958 postoperative non-small cell lung cancer patients in stage Ⅰ-ⅢA by two different follow-up patterns: A multi-center, real-world study

    ObjectiveTo compare the 5-year survival rates between two different follow-up patterns of postoperative stage Ⅰ-ⅢA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.MethodsPathological stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC 11 958 patients who underwent surgical resection and received follow-up within 6 months after initial diagnosis through telephone follow-up system were included in nine hospitals from July 2014 to July 2020. The patients were divided into two groups including a proactive follow-up group (n=3 825) and a passive follow-up group (n=8133) according to the way of following-up. There were 6 939 males and 5 019 females aged 59.8±9.5 years. The Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used.ResultsThe median follow-up frequency was 8.0 times in the proactive follow-up group and 7.0 times in the passive follow-up group. The median call duration was 3.77 minutes in the proactive follow-up group and 3.58 minutes in the passive follow-up group. The 5-year survival rate was 81.8% and 74.2% (HR=0.60, 95CI 0.53-0.67, P<0.001) in the proactive follow-up group and the passive follow-up group, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that follow-up pattern, age, gender and operation mode were independent prognostic factors, and the results were consistent in all subgroups stratified by clinical stages.ConclusionThe proactive follow-up leads to better overall survival for resected stage Ⅰ-ⅢA NSCLC patients, especially in the stage ⅢA.
