A Novel Prognostic Model Establishment and Treatment Efficacy Analysis for Primary Pulmonary Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma
-
摘要: 目的:本研究旨在建立并验证一种新的国际预后指数(International Prognostic Index, IPI),并评估不同治疗方式对原发性肺非霍奇金淋巴瘤(Primary Pulmonary non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, PPL)患者的疗效。方法:本研究数据来源于美国癌症Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results数据库(SEER)以及三家中国医院的临床数据库。采用Cox回归分析筛选独立预后因素,并结合列线图和现有IPI模型构建了PPL-IPI,并通过一致性指数(Concordance-index, C指数)及校准曲线进行验证。在治疗效果评价中,采用逆概率加权法平衡组间差异,并通过Kaplan–Meier生存曲线及log-rank检验比较不同治疗方式的效果。结果:在SEER数据库中共纳入2000年至2019年确诊的4,313例患者,另有2010年至2021年确诊的107例来自中国外部验证队列的患者纳入本研究。PPL-IPI模型包含IPI的5个不良因素(年龄>60岁、血清乳酸脱氢酶高、Ann Arbor III/IV期、行为状态评分2 - 4分和结外侵犯数目超过1个)和Cox模型筛选的4个不良因素:性别(男性)、组织学类型(非黏膜相关淋巴组织[Mucosa-Associated Lymphoid Tissue, MALT])、B症状(存在)、治疗(未接受),并在原始IPI基础上显著提升预测效能(C-index, 0.932 vs. 0.834)。不同风险组3年生存率分别为:低危组(0–2个因素)96%,低中危组(3–4个因素)82%,高中危组(5个因素)50%,高危组(6–9个因素)11.11%(p<
0.0001 )。在治疗方面,化疗显著降低了原发性肺MALT淋巴瘤患者的肿瘤特异性生存率(p<0.001);手术与放疗在原发性肺MALT淋巴瘤及弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤患者中的疗效差异均无统计学意义(p>0.05)。结论:基于国际多中心大型队列建立的PPL-IPI具有优异的预后预测能力。对于原发性肺MALT淋巴瘤患者,化疗可能不利于生存;而在原发性肺MALT淋巴瘤和弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤中,手术和放疗的疗效价值均无显著差别。-

Abstract:Objective At present, there are few related studies on primary pulmonary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (PPL), mainly single-center and retrospective studies. Therefore, there is no widely used and recognized prognostic index and treatment decision for PPL. This study aims to establish and verify a novel International Prognostic Index (IPI) of PPL by using the data of cancer population in the United States and Chinese multi-centers, and to compare the curative effects of different treatment methods. So as to predict the clinical prognosis and to provide new and effective ideas for making treatment decisions of PPL. Methods In this study, the clinical data of patients diagnosed with PPL from 2000 to 2019 in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database of America and from 2010 to 2021 in 3 tertiary hospitals in China were included. Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to determine independent prognostic factors and a nomogram was established to predict cancer-specific survival (CSS). The model was validated using the Concordance-index (C-index) and calibration curve. Combining nomogram with IPI, a novel prognostic index was established, risk stratified and the 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was calculated. The inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to eliminate confounding factors, and Kaplan-Meier curve and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis. Results and Discussions Finally, a total of 4,313 cases from the SEER database and 107 cases from the Chinese multi-center were included this study. The multivariate Cox regression results showed that the independent prognostic factors of PPL included age (P<0.001; hazard ratio [HR], 1.078; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.072–1.084), Ann Arbor stage (P<0.001), sex (P<0.001; HR, 0.719; 95% CI, 0.624–0.829), primary site (P=0.037), pathological type (P<0.001), B symptom (p=0.012; HR, 0.944; 95% CI, 0.773–0.997), surgery (P<0.001; HR, 1.453; 95% CI, 1.221–1.728), chemotherapy (P<0.001; HR, 0.742; 95% CI, 0.631–0.872), marital status (P<0.001). Based on these independent prognostic factors, a nomogram with 3, 5, and 10 years of CSS was established. By combining nomogram and IPI, we established a prognostic model of PPL, and its C-index was 0.932. By defining risk factors and stratifying the model, we established a novel prognostic index for PPL. The risk parameters were defined as: age > 60 years, Ann Arbor stage III/IV, serum LDH level >1 times normal level, performance status score >2, number of extranodal invasion >1, male, except mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT), positive B symptoms, and not receive cancer therapy; the definition of risk stratification and their 3-year OS rate were: low-risk group (0-2 risk factors) 96.97%, low-mediate risk group (3-4 risk factors) 82.61%, high-mediate risk group (5 risk factors) 50%, and high risk group (6-9 risk factors) 11.11%, (P<0.001). Regarding the efficacy comparison of treatment methods, both the American and Chinese data showed that chemotherapy significantly reduced the CSS of patients with primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma (P<0.001). There were no significant differences between the efficacy of surgery and radiotherapy both in primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (P>0.05). Conclusions First, this study established a novel prognostic index for PPL based on the data of the American cancer population and the Chinese multi-center cohort. The parameters were age, stage, serum LDH level, performance status score, and numbers of extranodal invasion. The index has excellent predictive ability and accuracy. Through risk stratification of this index, the 3-year OS rate of different risk groups were obtained. Finally, the efficacy analysis suggested that chemotherapy may be detrimental the CSS of patients with primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma. In addition, there was no significant difference of surgery and radiotherapy both in primary pulmonary MALT lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. -
