Abstract:
5053 Background: Previous studies showed that men with HIV-associated germ cell cancer (HIV-GCC) have a similar cancer-free outcome compared with their HIV-negative counterparts. However, the overall survival (OS) was inferior and little data is available on treatment and outcome of HIV-GCC in the era of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART). Methods: Men living with HIV aged ≥ 18 years (yrs) with a diagnosis of histologically proven GCC made from 01/1996 to 07/2018 were included. Primary outcomes were OS and progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary outcomes included characteristics of GCC and HIV-infection, treatment and causes of death. Results: Data of 89 men from 23 institutions and 6 countries with a total of 92 HIV-GCC (2 synchronous and 1 metachronous bilateral GCC) were analysed, among them 64 (70%) seminomas and 28 (30%) nonseminomas. 10/89 (11%) cases were primary extragonadal GCC. Median age was 36 yrs (range, 22-52) and median time from HIV to GCC diagnosis was 5 yrs (range, 0-29). Median CD4 count at GCC diagnosis was 420 cells/µl (range, 3-1503) and 83% of pts were on cART. Stage I disease was found in 44/80 (55%) gonadal GCC (metachronous bilateral case included). Of 46 cases with stage II/III/extragonadal GCC 78%, 17% and 4% were assigned to the IGCCCG good, intermediate and poor prognosis group, respectively. Of the 44 stage I cases, 22 (50%) were followed by active surveillance, and 11 (25%) received adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) or radiotherapy. Relapses occurred in 14 pts (6 from stage I, 8 in pts primary disseminated GCC) and CT was applied to 13/14 pts, of which 3 received high-dose CT. Overall, 12/89 (13%) pts have died. Causes of death were refractory GCC (n = 5), an AIDS-defining illness (n = 3) and other (n = 4). After a median follow-up of 6.5 yrs (range, 0.3-20.9), the 5- and 10-year PFS rate was 81% and 73%, and the 5- and 10-year OS rate was 91% and 85%, respectively. There were no significant differences between the good and intermediate prognosis group or between pts with CD4 counts 〈 200/µl or ≥ 200/µl. Conclusions: The 5- and 10-year PFS and OS rates of men with HIV-GCC are similar to those reported for HIV-negative GCC. Pts with HIV-GCC should remain on cART and be managed in an identical fashion to HIV-negative pts.
