  • Title: New online dynamic nomograms to predict recurrence-free and overall survival after resection of endometrial cancer: a single-institution retrospective cohort study.
    Author: Hu Z, Li J, Du J.
    Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 2024 Nov; 310(5):2603-2615. PubMed ID: 38886217.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: The significant global burden of endometrial cancer (EC) and the challenges associated with predicting EC recurrence indicate the need for a dynamic prediction model. This study aimed to propose nomograms based on clinicopathological variables to predict recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) after surgical resection for EC. METHODS: This single-institution retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent surgical resection for EC. Web-based nomograms were developed to predict RFS and OS following resection for EC, and their discriminative and calibration abilities were assessed. RESULTS: This study included 289 patients (median age, 56 years). At a median follow-up of 51.1 (range, 4.1-128.3) months, 13.5% (39/289) of patients showed relapse or died, and 10.7% (31/289) had non-endometrioid tumors (median size: 2.8 cm). Positive peritoneal cytology result (hazard ratio [HR], 35.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.12-1095.64; P = 0.0428), age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (AACCI) (HR, 52.08; 95% CI, 12.35-219.61; P < 0.001), and FIGO (Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) stage IV (HR, 138.33; 95% CI, 17.38-1101.05; P < 0.001) were predictors of RFS. Similarly, depth of myometrial invasion ≥ 1/2 (HR, 1; 95% CI, 0.46-2.19; P = 0.995), AACCI (HR, 93.63; 95% CI, 14.87-589.44; P < 0.001), and FIGO stage IV (HR, 608.26; 95% CI, 73.41-5039.66; P < 0.001) were predictors of OS. The nomograms showed good predictive capability, positive discriminative ability, and calibration (RFS: 0.895 and OS: 0.891). CONCLUSION: The nomograms performed well in internal validation when patients were stratified into prognostic groups, offering a personalized approach for risk stratification and treatment decision-making.
