Higher overall survival in metastatic pancreatic cancer: the impact of where and how treatment is delivered
OBJECTIVE To determine the overall survival of patients with advanced pancreatic cancer and evaluate factors that impact prognosis in a private cancer center. METHODS Data from the Hospital Cancer Registry at Hospital Israelita Albert Einstein were retrospectively collected. The patients enrolled had metastatic cancer at diagnosis or earlier staging and subsequent recurrence. Cases of neuroen...
متن کاملImmunological predictors of overall survival in treatment naïve metastatic pancreatic cancer patients
Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer that has a 5-year survival rate of less than 7% and is ultimately refractory to most treatments. An assessment of immunologic factors relevant to disease has not been performed in a comprehensive manner for treatment naïve patients to date. We hypothesized that systemic immunologic activation and/or immunosuppression wou...
متن کاملPrognostic factors in metastatic pancreatic cancer: Older patients are associated with reduced overall survival
Pancreatic cancer is a major health concern worldwide and, despite the attempts at management, the prognosis of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer remains poor, with a median survival of a few months. The aim of this study was to identify and evaluate clinicopathological factors and elucidate the clinical significance of patient age for the outcome of metastatic pancreatic cancer. Data ...
متن کاملSystemic Immune Activity Predicts Overall Survival in Treatment-Naïve Patients with Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer.
PURPOSE Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with a 5-year survival rate <7% and is ultimately refractory to most treatments. To date, an assessment of immunologic factors relevant to disease has not been comprehensively performed for treatment-naïve patients. We hypothesized that systemic immunologic biomarkers could predict overall survival (OS) in treatment-naïve P...
متن کاملPrognostic significance of the pretreatment serum gamma-glutamyltransferase levels in Chinese patients with non-metastatic cervical cancer
This study was performed to evaluate the prognostic significance of the pretreatment serum gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels in a Chinese cohort of patients with early-stage or locally advanced cervical cancer. The pretreatment serum GGT levels were examined in 290 cervical cancer patients with stage I-III disease and 230 healthy controls selected from a cancer-free population in the same ...
