Background
Tumor-associated systemic inflammatory response has been correlated with prognosis. Our aim was to analyze the utility of inflammation-based prognostic scores for prognostication and patient selection for cytoreduction and perioperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (POIC) in patients diagnosed with peritoneal metastasis of colonic origin.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database for all patients treated for peritoneal metastasis of colonic origin from February 2001 to April 2015. Inflammation-based prognostic scores including neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio, platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and Onodera’s prognostic nutritional index (ONI) were calculated.
Results
Of 123 patients, 70 (56.9%) were men and 53 (43.1%) were women. Mean age at diagnosis was 49.9 years. Significant prognosticators in univariate analysis included intraoperative peritoneal cancer index (p < 0.000), tumor marker CA19-9 (p < 0.000), PLR (p = 0.020), POIC regimen (p < 0.003), and completeness of cytoreduction (p < 0.000). Multivariate Cox analysis identified CA19-9 (hazard ratio [HR] 1.0; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00–1.01, p = 0.031), ONI (HR 0.86; 95% CI 0.79–0.94, p < 0.000), PLR (HR 1.0; 95% CI 0.90–1.01, p = 0.041), incompleteness of cytoreduction CC2 and CC3, and mucinous adenocarcinoma histology as significant independent prognosticators.
Conclusions
The inflammation-based prognostic scores PLR and ONI and tumor marker CA19-9 are significant prognosticators of survival. They are useful in patient selection and prognostication for cytoreductive surgery and POIC in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis of colonic origin.
