Abstract
Purpose: Most data regarding Central nervous system (CNS) metastases are derived from non-Hispanic populations enrolled in clinical trials. This study aims to characterize the primary tumors, initial treatments, and outcomes in a Hispanic/Latino real-world population with CNS metastases.
Methods: A retrospective analysis of a multicenter cohort of patients with CNS metastases treated from 2010 to 2024.
Results: From 2,261 patients with CNS metastases, 84% had brain metastases and 16% had neoplastic meningitis. The most common primary tumors were breast (40%), lung (27%), genitourinary (11%), gynecologic (6%), and melanoma (4%). Whole-brain radiotherapy and systemic therapy were initially prescribed in 84% and 55% of cases, respectively. The median overall survival was 9.8 months (95% CI, 8.9 - 10.7). Variables associated with outcomes included location of the primary tumor, molecular subtype, type of CNS metastases (brain metastases vs. neoplastic meningitis), and access to targeted therapies.
Conclusion: In a real-world cohort of Hispanic/Latino patients with CNS metastases, survival has remained poor over the past 15 years. This highlights the need for interventions and research to improve outcomes.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Neuro-Oncology is a multi-disciplinary journal encompassing basic, applied, and clinical investigations in all research areas as they relate to cancer and the central nervous system. It provides a single forum for communication among neurologists, neurosurgeons, radiotherapists, medical oncologists, neuropathologists, neurodiagnosticians, and laboratory-based oncologists conducting relevant research. The Journal of Neuro-Oncology does not seek to isolate the field, but rather to focus the efforts of many disciplines in one publication through a format which pulls together these diverse interests. More than any other field of oncology, cancer of the central nervous system requires multi-disciplinary approaches. To alleviate having to scan dozens of journals of cell biology, pathology, laboratory and clinical endeavours, JNO is a periodical in which current, high-quality, relevant research in all aspects of neuro-oncology may be found.
