    Abstract: Objective: To systematically evaluate lymph node metastasis (LNM) patterns in patients with endometrial cancer (EC) who underwent complete surgical staging, which included systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Methods: Four thousand and one patients who underwent complete surgical staging including systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy for EC were enrolled from 30 centers in China from 2001 to 2019. We systematically displayed the clinical and prognostic characteristics of patients with various LNM patterns, especially the PLN-PAN+ [para-aortic lymph node (PAN) metastasis without pelvic lymph node (PLN) metastasis]. The efficacy of PAN+ (para-aortic lymph node metastasis) prediction with clinical and pathological features was evaluated. Results: Overall, 431 of the 4,001 patients (10.8%) showed definite LNM according to pathological diagnosis. The PAN+ showed the highest frequency (6.6%) among all metastatic sites. One hundred fourteen cases (26.5%) were PLN-PAN+ (PAN metastasis without PLN metastasis), 167 cases (38.7%) showed PLN+PAN-(PLN metastasis without PAN metastasis), and 150 cases (34.8%) showed metastasis to both regions (PLN+PAN+). There was also 1.9% (51/2,660) of low-risk patients who had PLN-PAN+. There are no statistical differences in relapse-free survival (RFS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) among PLN+PAN-, PLN-PAN+, and PLN+PAN+. The sensitivity of gross PLNs, gross PANs, and lymphovascular space involvement (LVSI) to predict PAN+ was 53.8 [95% confidence interval (CI): 47.6–59.9], 74.2 95% CI: 65.6–81.4), and 45.8% (95% CI: 38.7–53.2), respectively. Conclusion: Over one-fourth of EC patients with LMN metastases were PLN-PAN+. PLN-PAN+ shares approximate survival outcomes (RFS and DSS) with other LNM patterns. No effective clinical methods were achieved for predicting PAN+. Thus, PLN-PAN+ is a non-negligible LNM pattern that cannot be underestimated in EC, even in low-risk patients.

    Abstract: Patients with endometrial cancer (EC) combined with metabolic syndrome (MetS) have a worse prognosis than those without MetS. This study aimed to investigate whether partial metabolic disorder significantly influenced early-stage endometrioid EC (EEC) survival and searched for a more efficient method to evaluate metabolic status. Methods This is a nationwide, multicenter cohort study that included 998 patients with primary early-stage EEC from 2001 to 2018. Patients were divided into different metabolic groups based on the diagnostic criteria of the Chinese Medical Association (CDC). The progression-free survival (PFS) time was compared between various metabolic status. Meanwhile, we established an EC Prognostic-Related Metabolic Score (ECPRM Score) to explore the association of the severity of metabolic status and early-stage EEC PFS. A nomogram was established for predicting PFS, which was externally validated in a testing set that includes 296 patients. Results A partial metabolic disorder, as well as MetS, was an independent risk factor of poor survival of patients with early-stage EEC [hazard ratio (HR) = 7.6, 95% CI = 1.01–57.5, p & lt; 0.05]. A high ECPRM Score was associated with lower PFS (HR = 2.1, 95% CI = 1.05–4.0, p & lt; 0.001). The nomogram, in which the ECPRM Score contributed most to the prognosis, exhibited excellent discrimination of survival supported by the internal and external validations. In addition, the calibration curve supports its robust predicting ability. Conclusion Even though they do not meet the criteria of MetS, partial metabolic disorders were also associated with adverse outcomes in early-stage EEC. The ECPRM Score is beneficial for clinicians to evaluate the severity of metabolic abnormalities and guide patients to ameliorate the poor prognosis of metabolic disorders.

    Abstract: Myometrial invasion is a prognostic factor for lymph node metastases and decreased survival in non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma patients. Herein, we explored the mode of myometrial invasion diagnosis in FIGO stage I non-endometrioid carcinoma and evaluated the differences in diagnostic efficiency among intraoperative frozen section (IFS), intraoperative gross examination (IGE), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computed tomography (CT) in clinical practice. Finally, we suggested which test should be routinely performed. Method This was a historical cohort study nationwide with 30 centers in China between January 2000 and December 2019. Clinical data, including age, histology, method of myometrial invasion evaluation (MRI, CT, IGE, and IFS), and final diagnosis of postoperative paraffin sections, were collected from 490 non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (serous, clear cell, undifferentiated, mixed carcinoma, and carcinosarcoma) women in FIGO stage I. Results Among the 490 patients, 89.59% presented myometrial invasion. The methods reported for myometrial invasion assessment were IFS in 23.47%, IGE in 69.59%, MRI in 37.96%, and CT in 10.20% of cases. The highest concordance was detected between IFS and postoperative paraffin sections (Kappa = 0.631, accuracy = 93.04%), followed by IGE (Kappa = 0.303, accuracy = 82.40%), MRI (Kappa = 0.131, accuracy = 69.35%), and CT (Kappa = 0.118, accuracy = 50.00%). A stable diagnostic agreement between IFS and the final results was also found through the years (2000–2012: Kappa = 0.776; 2013–2014: Kappa = 0.625; 2015–2016: Kappa = 0.545; 2017–2019: Kappa = 0.652). Conclusion In China, the assessment of myometrial invasion in non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma is often performed via IGE, but the reliability is relatively low in contrast to IFS. In clinical practice, IFS is a reliable method that can help accurately assess myometrial invasion and intraoperative decision-making (lymph node dissection or not). Hence, it should be routinely performed in non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma patients.

    Abstract: Stage IB (deep myometrial invasion) high‐grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma (EA), regardless of LVSI status, is classified into high‐intermediate risk groups, requiring surgical lymph node staging. Intraoperative frozen section (IFS) is commonly used, but its adequacy and reliability vary between reports. Hence, we determined the utility of IFS in identification of high‐risk factors, including deep myometrial invasion and high‐grade. Method We retrospectively analyzed 9,985 cases operated with hysterectomy and diagnosed with FIGO stage I/II EA in postoperative paraffin section (PS) results at 30 Chinese hospitals from 2000 to 2019. We determined diagnostic performance of IFS and investigated whether the addition of IFS to preoperative biopsy and imaging could improve identification of high‐risk factors. Results IFS and postoperative PS presented the highest concordance in assessing deep myometrial invasion (Kappa: 0.834), followed by intraoperative gross examination (IGE Kappa: 0.643), MRI (Kappa: 0.395), and CT (Kappa: 0.207). IFS and postoperative PS presented the highest concordance for high‐grade EA (Kappa: 0.585) compared to diagnostic curettage (D & C 0.226) and hysteroscope (Hys 0.180). Sensitivity and specificity for detecting deep myometrial invasion were 86.21 and 97.20% for IFS versus 51.72 and 88.81% for MRI, 68.97 and 94.41% for IGE. These figures for detecting high‐grade EA were 58.21 and 96.50% for IFS versus 16.42 and 98.83% for D & C, 13.43 and 98.64% for Hys. Parallel strategies, including MRI‐IFS (Kappa: 0.626), D & C‐IFS (Kappa: 0.595), and Hys‐IFS (Kappa: 0.578) improved the diagnostic efficiencies of individual preoperative examinations. Based on the high sensitivity of IFS, parallel strategies improved the sensitivities of preoperative examinations to 89.66% (MRI), 64.18% (D & C), 62.69% (Hys), respectively, and these differences were statistically significant ( p  = 0.000). Conclusion IFS presented reasonable agreement rates predicting postoperative PS results, including deep myometrial invasion and high‐grade. IFS helps identify high‐intermediate risk patients in preoperative biopsy and MRI and guides intraoperative lymphadenectomy decisions in EA.

    Abstract: The aim of the present study was to determine overall survival (OS) and risk factors associated with early recurrence in patients with FIGO I–II stage endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods Clinical features were retrospectively extracted from the database of China Endometrial Cancer Consortium from January 2000 to December 2019. A total of 2,974 patients with Federation International of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) I–II stage endometrial cancer were included. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess OS and disease-specific survival. Cox proportional hazard model and Fine-Gray model were used to determine the factors related to OS. Binary logistic regression model was used to determine independent predictors of early relapse patients. Results Of these 2,974 ECs, 189 patients were confirmed to have relapse. The 5-year OS was significantly different between the recurrence and non-recurrence patients ( p & lt; 0.001). Three quarters of the relapse patients were reported in 36 months. The 5-year OS for early recurrence patients was shorter than late recurrence [relapse beyond 36 months, p & lt; 0.001]. The grade 3 [odds ratio (OR) = 1.55, 95%CI 1.17–2.05, p = 0.002], lymphatic vascular infiltration (LVSI; OR = 3.36; 95%CI 1.50–7.54, p = 0.003), and myometrial infiltration (OR = 2.07, 95%CI 1.17—3.65, p = 0.012) were independent risk factors of early relapse. The protective factor of that is progesterone receptor (PR)-positive (OR = 0.50, 95%CI 0.27–0.92, p = 0.02). Bilateral ovariectomy could reduce recurrence risk rate (OR = 0.26, 95%CI 0.14–0.51, p & lt; 0.001). Conclusion The OS of early relapse EC is worse. Grade 3, LVSI, and myometrial infiltration are independent risk factors for early relapse EC. In addition, the protective factor is PR-positive for those people and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy could reduce the risk of recurrence.

    Abstract: 5520 Background: First-line treatments for locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) have limited efficacy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is an emerging approach, however, two-thirds of patients (pts) respond to it and pts without response benefit little. PD-1 inhibitors have shown promising role in recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative PD-1 inhibitor camrelizumab combined neoadjuvant therapy for LACC. Methods: The study is designed as a multicenter, open-label, single-arm, prospective phase II study. Pts are enrolled if they had previously untreated LACC (2018 FIGO staged IB3, IIA2 and IIB/IIIC1r (tumor size 〉 4cm). Eligible pts will receive neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy (NACIT), defined as one cycle of cisplatin (75-80 mg/m2, iv) plus nab-paclitaxel (260 mg/m2, iv) NACT and subsequent two cycles of camrelizumab (200mg, iv) combined NACT. Either surgery or concurrent chemoradiotherapy are conducted according to the response as per the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR), and the secondary endpoints were pathological complete remission (pCR) rate, rate of postoperative adjuvant treatment, event-free survival, overall survival and safety. Results: From Dec 1, 2020 to Feb 1, 2023, 83 pts were enrolled, and 78 pts were evaluated for response. The ORR was 100% (95%CI, 95.38 to 100), with 14 (17.95%) complete response (CR) and 64 (82.05%) partial response. Regarding the pathological findings of 76 pts who underwent radical surgery, 30 (39.47% (95%CI, 28.44 to 51.35)) pts achieved pCR, while 17 (22.37%) needed postoperative adjuvant treatment as indicated in NCCN guideline, of who 14 had positive pelvic nodes, positive surgical margin, and/or positive parametrium and the other three met Sedlis criteria. RECIST CR was significantly associated with pCR ( P = 0.016). Pre-treatment PD-L1 expression (Combined Positive Score) was a predictive biomarker for RECIST CR ( P = 0.036) but not for pCR ( P = 0.078) in these evaluated patients. Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 35 (44.87%) pts during NACIT; the most common were lymphocytopia (25.64%), neutropenia (12.82%) and leucopenia (8.97%). Conclusions: NACIT for LACC demonstrated extremely high ORR and pCR rate with manageable toxicity profile, and greatly reduced the need of postoperative adjuvant therapy.

    Abstract: Preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has been widely used in developing countries for the treatment of patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stages IB3 and IIA2 cervical cancer. However, the effectiveness of NACT and treatment options for NACT-insensitive patients have been concerning. This study will assess prognostic differences between NACT and primary surgery treatment (PST), determine factors associated with prognosis, and explore better adjuvant treatment modalities for NACT-insensitive patients. Methods This study analyzed clinical characteristics, pathological characteristics, treatment options, and follow-up information of 774 patients with FIGO stages IB3 and IIA2 cervical cancer from 28 centers from January 2016 to October 2019 who participated in a multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial. Results For patients undergoing NACT, the 5-year OS and PFS rate was 85.8 and 80.5% respectively. They were similar in the PST group. There was no significant difference in OS and PFS between clinical response (CR)/partial response (PR) groups and stable disease (SD)/progressive disease (PD) groups. Apart from deep cervical invasion ( p  = 0.046) affecting OS for patients undergoing NACT, no other clinical and pathological factors were associated with OS. 97.8% of NACT-insensitive patients opted for surgery. If these patients did not have intermediate- or high-risk factors, whether they had undergone postoperative adjuvant therapy was irrelevant to their prognosis, whereas for patients with intermediate- or high-risk factors, adjuvant chemotherapy resulted in better PFS (chemotherapy vs. no therapy, p   〈  0.001; chemotherapy vs. radiotherapy, p  = 0.019) and OS (chemotherapy vs. no therapy, p   〈  0.001; chemotherapy vs. radiotherapy, p  = 0.002). Conclusions NACT could be a choice for patients with FIGO stages IB3 and IIA2 cervical cancer. The main risk factor influencing prognosis in the NACT group is deep cervical invasion. After systematic treatment, insensitivity to NACT does not indicate a poorer prognosis. For NACT-insensitive patients, Chinese prefer surgery. Postoperative adjuvant therapy in patients with no intermediate- or high-risk factors does not improve prognosis, and chemotherapy in patients with intermediate- and high-risk factors is more effective than radiation therapy and other treatments. Trial registration The study was prospectively registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03308591); date of registration: 12/10/2017.
