Abstract

Purpose

Response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in form of tumor necrosis predicts outcome in osteosarcoma; although response-adapted treatment escalation failed to improve outcome among patients treated with high-dose methotrexate-based (HDMTx) chemotherapy. This study aimed to identify factors predicting tumor necrosis and its impact on survival among patients with non-metastatic osteosarcoma treated with a response-adapted non-HDMTx regimen.

Methods

A retrospective single-institutional study was conducted among non-metastatic osteosarcoma patients treated with neoadjuvant therapy between 2004–2019. Patients were treated uniformly with three cycles of neoadjuvant cisplatin/doxorubicin. Post-operatively, patients with favourable necrosis (≥90 %) received 3 cycles of cisplatin/doxorubicin, while patients with poor necrosis (<90 %) received escalated treatment with alternating six cycles of cisplatin/doxorubicin and ifosfamide/etoposide. Propensity score matching (PSM) analyses were conducted to ascertain independent impact of necrosis on event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS).

Results

Of 594 registered osteosarcoma patients, 280 patients (median age 17 years; male 67.1 %) were included for analysis. 73 patients (26.1 %) achieved favourable necrosis. Patients with smaller tumor size (≤10 cm) (aOR = 2.28; p = 0.030), lower serum alkaline phosphatase (≤450 IU/L) (aOR = 2.10; p = 0.035), and who had surgery earlier (<115 days) (aOR = 2.28; p = 0.016) were more likely to have favourable necrosis. On 1:2 PSM analysis, patients not achieving favourable necrosis demonstrated inferior EFS (HR = 2.68; p = 0.003) and OS (HR = 3.42; p = 0.003).

Conclusions

Patients of osteosarcoma with smaller tumor, lower serum alkaline phosphatase and earlier surgery are more likely to achieve favourable necrosis. Tumor necrosis independently predicts outcome in osteosarcoma, and response-adapted treatment escalation fails to overcome the adverse impact of poor necrosis in non-HDMTx based regimen.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Bone Oncology is a peer-reviewed international journal aimed at presenting basic, translational and clinical high-quality research related to bone and cancer. As the first journal dedicated to cancer induced bone diseases, JBO welcomes original research articles, review articles, editorials and opinion pieces. Case reports will only be considered in exceptional circumstances and only when accompanied by a comprehensive review of the subject. The areas covered by the journal include: Bone metastases (pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnostics, clinical features, prevention, treatment) Preclinical models of metastasis Bone microenvironment in cancer (stem cell, bone cell and cancer interactions) Bone targeted therapy (pharmacology, therapeutic targets, drug development, clinical trials, side-effects, outcome research, health economics) Cancer treatment induced bone loss (epidemiology, pathophysiology, prevention and management) Bone imaging (clinical and animal, skeletal interventional radiology) Bone biomarkers (clinical and translational applications) Radiotherapy and radio-isotopes Skeletal complications Bone pain (mechanisms and management) Orthopaedic cancer surgery Primary bone tumours Clinical guidelines Multidisciplinary care Keywords: bisphosphonate, bone, breast cancer, cancer, CTIBL, denosumab, metastasis, myeloma, osteoblast, osteoclast, osteooncology, osteo-oncology, prostate cancer, skeleton, tumour.
