1 Preoperative nomogram for individualized prediction of parametrial invasion in patients with FIGO stage IB cervical cancer treated with radical hysterectomy Tae-Wook Kong 1,2, Joo-Hyuk Son 1,2, Jiheum Paek 1,2, Yonghee Lee 1,3, Eun Ju Lee 1,4, Suk-Joon Chang 1,2, Hee-Sug Ryu 1,2 1 Gynecologic Cancer Center, Department of 2 Obstetrics and Gynecology, Department of 3 Pathology, and Department of 4 Radiology, Ajou University School of Medicine, Suwon, Korea

2 FIGO stage IB cervical cancer Piver type III radical hysterectomy (RH) Excellent local tumor control Long-term urologic complications (36%-47%) Sexual dysfunction Colorectal motility disorder Piver MS et al., 1974; Landoni F et al., 2001; Axelsen SM et al., 2006; Hazewinkel MH et al., 2010; Manchana T et al., 2010

3 Radical hysterectomy vs. radiation therapy FIGO stage IB-IIA, 343 patients randomized to either RH or radiation Survival: 83% (surgery) vs. 74% (radiation) Morbidity, esp., urologic complications 28% (RH) vs. 12% (radiation). P= NCCN guidelines for FIGO stage IB2 chemoradiation (category 1), RH (category 2B) Treatment facilities, physician preference, costs, performance status Landoni F et al., 1997

4 Cost effectiveness and utility RH is cost effective for treating FIGO stage IB2 (vs. chemoradiation) Cost utility analysis Clinical and cost outcomes including survival, quality of life, cost of treating each complication RH plus adjuvant therapy Less cost effective Minimize postoperative chemoradiation Rocconi RP et al., 2005; Jewell EL et al., 2007; Katanyoo K et al., 2014; Cohn DE, 2014

5 Parametrial spread High-risk pathologic factors Positive margins, lymph node metastasis, parametrial invasion (PMI) Parametrial spread FIGO stage IB1 (5% - 10%), IB2/IIA2 (36.4%) cervical cancer Randomly located in the lateral and medial parametria Difficult to predict PMI for less radical surgery Girardi F et al., 1989; Landoni F et al., 1995; Benedetti-Panici P et al., 2000; Wright JD et al., 2007; Frumovitz M et al., 2009; Chang SJ et al., 2012; Park JY et al., 2013; Lee JY et al., 2014; Kong TW et al., 2014; Kato T et al., 2015; Kong TW et al., 2016

7 Pre-menopause Post-menopause MRI tumor size, SCC-Ag, Cyfra 21-1, Menopause (AUC = in pre-menopause and in post-menopause) Kong TW et al., 2016

10 Cervical stroma and tumor on T2-weighted MR images Tumor Intact cervical stromal ring Tumor Focal disruption of cervical stromal ring Radiological signs of PMI Disruption of cervical stromal ring High negative predictive value (94%-100%) Kim SH et al., 1990; Hricak H et al., 1998

11 Objectives To establish a preoperative nomogram predicting parametrial invasion by combining clinicopathologic factors in FIGO stage IB cervical cancer patients treated with radical hysterectomy

12 Total patients (n=360) Exclusion due to Conization (n=46) No SCC-Ag, Cyfra 21-1 (n=9) No MRI (n=5) Non-SCC, ASC, AC (n=2) Total enrolled patients (n=298) Figure 1. Inclusion criteria. SCC, squamous cell carcinoma; ASC, adenosquamous cell carcinoma; AC, adenocarcinoma; MRI, magnetic resonance imaging; SCC-Ag, squamous cell carcinoma-antigen; Cyfra 21-1, an enzyme immunoassay measuring serum fragments of cytokeratin 19.

13 Materials and methods Piver type III RH with retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy between February 2000 and March 2015 Retrospective review of clinicopathologic data of 298 patients with FIGO stage IB cervical cancer Nomogram Multivariate logistic regression analysis of preoperative clinicopathologic factors rms software package in R (

21 Table 3. Predicted probability of parametrial invasion and actual parametrial invasion rate according to risk groups Low-risk group High-risk group Predefined predicted probability of PMI (%) <10 10 Total score (points) <38 38 Number of patients Predicted probability of PMI (%) Actual PMI rate (%) 2.5 (5 out of 200 patients) 60.2 (59 out of 98 patients)

22 Conclusions We developed a preoperative nomogram predicting PMI in surgically-treated FIGO stage IB cervical cancer patients In terms of the costs and utility of treatment, the use of postoperative chemoradiation should be minimized The probabilities from this nomogram may have the potential to provide valuable guidance for physicians regarding the primary management in FIGO stage IB cervical cancer patients
