Item Survival In Recurrent Ovarian Cancer Patients Before And After The Bevacizumab Era: An Observational Single-Centre Study(2022) Akilli, Huseyin; Rahatli, Samed; Aliyeva, Khayala; Altundag, Ozden; Kuscu, Ulku Esra; Ayhan, Ali; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5240-8441; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0197-6622; 35260031; AAX-3230-2020; W-9219-2019A retrospective observational study was carried out in Baskent University School of Medicine, Ankara, Turkey. Recurrent ovarian cancer patients treated between 2007 and 2017 were divided into two groups according to their bevacizumab status. The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and safety. Three hundred and ninety-six patients enrolled in this study, 200 (50.5%) received bevacizumab while 196 (49.5%) patients never received bevacizumab. The median follow-up time was 48.2 and 47.6 months, respectively. The 5-year OS was 61% and 46%, respectively (p=.007). In multivariate analysis, only platinum-sensitivity (HR: 3.75, 95% CI: 3.0-5.32; p<.001) was identified as independent prognostic factors. In subgroup analyses according to platinum status, bevacizumab did not affect the 5 year OS in platinum sensitive patients (64% versus 68% p=.28) but increased survival in platinum resistant patients (36% versus 44%, p=.00). The rate of grade III-IV haematologic toxicities was 13.7% in the bevacizumab group and 11% in the other group (p=.6).Impact Statement What is already known on this subject? Bevacizumab increases the progression-free survival in platinum-sensitive and resistant recurrent ovarian cancer patients without changing overall survival. What do the results of this study add? Bevacizumab did not affect OS in platinum sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients however improved OS in platinum resistant patients with mild toxicity. What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? This study emphasised the crucial role of bevacizumab in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer patients.Item Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer: When, and for whom?(2023) Ayhan, Ali; Akilli, Huseyin; Abasiyanik, Mehmet Ali; Taskiran, Cagatay; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5741-8489; 36264620Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate the progression-free survival (PFS) of recurrent ovarian cancer (ROC) patients treated with cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Materials and Methods ROC patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery plus HIPEC between 2015 and 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Patients' demographic information and clinicopathological characteristics including cancer type, histology, platinum status, presence of ascites, type of surgery, complications, chemotherapy history, and disease progression were documented. PFS was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results A total of 104 patients with ROC were included. The median age was 57 years and the median follow-up time was 15 months (range: 5-69 months). In Cox regression multivariate analyses, platinum resistance (hazard ratio [HR]: 3.32, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.91-5.76, p = 0.00), more than one relapse prior HIPEC (HR: 2.81, 95% CI: 1.65-4.87, p = 0.024), and presence of ascites (HR: 1.88, 95% CI: 1.08-3.26, p = 0.00) were found to be negative prognostic factors for PFS. In subgroup analyses of patients with the first recurrence, the median PFS was 21 months for platinum-sensitive patients and 6 months for platinum-resistant patients (p = 0.032). Conclusion HIPEC at the time of first platinum-sensitive relapse may lead to favorable PFS in the treatment ROC. However, HIPEC as salvage treatment even with R0 cytoreductive surgery does not seem effective.Item Complications of cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy: An evaluation of 100 cases(2021) Akilli, Huseyin; Gunakan, Emre; Haberal, Ali; Altundag, Ozden; Kuscu, Ulku Esra; Taskiran, Cagatay; Ayhan, Ali; 0000-0002-5240-8441; 0000-0001-8854-8190; 0000-0003-0197-6622; 34038007; AAX-3230-2020; ABI-1707-2020; W-9219-2019Objective To evaluate the perioperative outcomes and complications of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis who underwent cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Methods This retrospective study included 100 patients operated on between 2016 and 2020. Patients' characteristics, including age, comorbidities, chemotherapy history, treatment failures, cancer type, histology, platinum sensitivity, and perioperative complications, were documented. Perioperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. Results Median age was 58 years and median follow-up time was 16 months. Eighty-six (86%) patients had ovarian cancer; 11 (11%) experienced grade III-IV complications, and the only relevant factor was the presence of multiple metastasis (P = 0.031). Seven patients (7%) had surgical-site infection; in multivariant analyses, only ostomy formation was found as an independent risk factor for surgical-site infection (odds ratio [OR] 14.01; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.36-143.52; P = 0.024). Fifteen (15%) patients experienced elevated serum creatinine after surgery and the median time to creatinine elevation was 5 days postoperatively (range 3-15 days). In multivariant analyses, only age of of 58 years or more was found as a significant factor for the elevation of serum creatinine (OR 6.96; 95% CI 1.42-32.81; P = 0.014). Conclusion Our results showed that the presence of multiple metastases increased the risk of grade III-IV complications and age of 58 years or more was the leading risk factor for renal complications. However, we could not find a relation between postoperative complications and oncologic outcomes. HIPEC seems to be a safe approach in experienced hands.
