Abstract
Background: The correlation between the preoperative albuminalkaline phosphatase ratio (AAPR) and the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after radical resection is still not comprehensive.
Objective: This study aims to observe the correlation between preoperative AAPR and the prognosis of HCC patients after radical resection.
Methods: We constructed a retrospective cohort study and included 656 HCC patients who underwent radical resection. The patients were grouped after determining an optimum AAPR cut-off value. We used the Cox proportional regression model to assess the correlation between preoperative AAPR and the prognosis of HCC patients after radical resection.
Results: The optimal cut-off value of AAPR for assessing the prognosis of HCC patients after radical resection was 0.52 which was acquired by using X-tile software. Kaplan-Meier analysis curves showed that a low AAPR (⩽ 0.52) had a significantly lower rate of overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) (P< 0.05). Multiple Cox proportional regression showed that an AAPR > 0.52 was a protective factor for OS (HR = 0.66, 95%CI 0.45-0.97, p= 0.036) and RFS (HR = 0.70, 95% CI 0.53-0.92, p= 0.011).
Conclusions: The preoperative AAPR level was related to the prognosis of HCC patients after radical resection and can be used as a routine preoperative test, which is important for early detection of high-risk patients and taking personalized adjuvant treatment.
期刊介绍:
Concentrating on molecular biomarkers in cancer research, Cancer Biomarkers publishes original research findings (and reviews solicited by the editor) on the subject of the identification of markers associated with the disease processes whether or not they are an integral part of the pathological lesion.
The disease markers may include, but are not limited to, genomic, epigenomic, proteomics, cellular and morphologic, and genetic factors predisposing to the disease or indicating the occurrence of the disease. Manuscripts on these factors or biomarkers, either in altered forms, abnormal concentrations or with abnormal tissue distribution leading to disease causation will be accepted.
