Patients received RAE at a median of 30.9 months (range, 3.4-161.7 months) after detection of CLM. The median OS and LPFS were 11.3 months (95% confidence interval, 7.9-15.1 months) and 4 months (95% confidence interval, 3.3-4.8 months), respectively. Of the 40 parameters tested, 6 were independently associated with OS in MVA. These baseline parameters included number of extrahepatic disease sites (P < .001), carcinoembryonic antigen (P < .001), albumin (P = .005), alanine aminotransferase level (P < .001), tumor differentiation level (P < .001), and the sum of the 2 largest tumor diameters (P < .001). The 1-year OS of patients with total points of < 25 versus > 80 was 90% and 10%, respectively. Bootstrap resampling showed good discrimination (optimism corrected c-index = 0.745) and calibration (mean absolute prediction error = 0.299) of the nomogram. Only baseline maximum standardized uptake value was significant in MVA for LPFS prediction (P < .001; SHR = 1.06).
The developed nomogram included 6 pre-RAE parameters and provided good prediction of survival post-RAE in heavily pretreated patients. Baseline maximum standardized uptake value was the single significant predictor of LPFS.
Metabolic, anatomic, laboratory, pathologic, genetic, primary disease, and procedure-related factors, as well as pre- and post-RAE therapies in 103 patients with CLM treated with RAE from September 15, 2009 to March 21, 2017 were analyzed. LPFS was defined by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors 1.1 and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer criteria. Prognosticators of OS and LPFS were selected using univariate Cox regression, adjusted for clustering and competing risk analysis (for LPFS), and subsequently tested in multivariate analysis (MVA). The nomogram was built using R statistical software and internally validated using bootstrap resampling.
The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of overall (OS) and liver progression-free survival (LPFS) following Yttrium-90 radioembolization (RAE) of heavily pretreated patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CLM), as well as to create and validate a predictive nomogram for OS.
