Defining the survival benefit of adjuvant pelvic radiotherapy and chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in stages III-IVA endometrial carcinoma. Gynecologic oncology Xiang, M., English, D. P., Kidd, E. A. 2019Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To determine which patients with locoregionally advanced endometrial cancer may benefit from pelvic external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) in addition to chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone.METHODS: Patients with FIGO stages III-IVA endometrial carcinoma between 2004 and 2016 who underwent at least total hysterectomy and adjuvant multiagent chemotherapy were identified in the National Cancer Database. The primary outcome was overall survival according to receipt of pelvic EBRT, analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox multivariable regression.RESULTS: In total, 13,270 patients were identified (62% pure endometrioid, 38% serous/clear cell or mixed histology; 22.6% stage IIIA, 4.7% stage IIIB, 71.2% stage IIIC, 1.5% stage IVA), of whom 40% received pelvic EBRT. In univariable analysis, EBRT was associated with absolute 5-year survival increases of 5% and 9% in the endometrioid and non-endometrioid cohorts, respectively (P?
