Table 7. TNM classification for endocrine tumors of the Pancreas [5] T TX T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 Primary tumor a Primary tumor cannot be assessed No evidence of primary tumor Tumor limited to pancreas, b 2 cm or less in greatest dimension Tumor limited to the pancreas b more than 2 cm but less than 4 cm in greatest dimension Tumor limited to pancreas, b more than 4 cm un greatest dimension or tumour invading duodenum or bile duct. Tumor perforates visceral peritoneum (serosa) or invades other organs or adjacent structures a For any T, add (m) for multiple tumours b Invasion of adjacent peripancreatic adipose tissue is accepted but invasion of adjacent organs is excluded. N NX N0 N1 M M0 M1 Regional lymph nodes Regional lymph node cannot be assessed No regional lymph node metastasis Regional lymph node metastasis Distant metastases No distant metastasis Distant metastasis M1a Hepatic metastasis (is) only M1b Extrahepataic metastasis (is) only M1c Hepatic and extrahepatic metastases
Table 8. TNM classification for endocrine tumors of Jejunum and Ileum [5] T TX T0 T1 T2 T3 T4 Primary tumor Primary tumor cannot be assessed No evidence of primary tumor Tumor invades lamina propria or submucosa and 1 cm or less in greatest dimension Tumor invades muscularis propria or is greater than 1 cm in greatest dimension Tumor invades through the muscularis propria into subserosal tissue without penetration of overlying serosa (jejunal or ileal) Tumor perforates visceral peritoneum (serosa) or invades other organs or adjacent structures For any T add (m) for multiple tumors N NX N0 N1 N2 M M0 M1 Regional lymph nodes Regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed No regional lymph node metastasis Less than 12 regional lymph node metastasis without mesenteric mass (es) greater than 2 cm in sizes 12 or more regional nodes and/or mesenteric mass (es) greater than 2 cm in maximum dimension Distant metastasis No distant metastasis Distant metastasis M1a Hepatic metastasis (is) only M1b Extrahepatic metastasis (is) only M1c Hepatic and extrahepatic metastases
I Large randomised, controlled trials of good methodological quality (low potential for bias) or meta-analyses of well-conducted randomised trials without heterogeneity II Small randomised trials or large randomised trials with a suspicion of bias (lower methodological quality) or meta-analyses of such trials or of trials with demonstrated heterogeneity III Prospective cohort studies IV Retrospective cohort studies or case control studies V Studies without control group, case reports, expert opinions A B C Strong evidence for efficacy with a substantial clinical benefit, strongly recommended Strong or moderate evidence for efficacy but with a limited clinical benefit, generally recommended Insufficient evidence for efficacy or benefit does not outweigh the risk or the disadvantages (adverse events, costs,...), optional D Moderate evidence against efficacy or for adverse outcome, generally not recommended E Strong evidence against efficacy or for adverse outcome, never recommended
The Magnitude of Clinical Benefit Scale: ESMO-MCBS Curative setting A & B or non-curative setting 5 & 4 Curative A B C Non-curative 5 4 3 2 1
OS Median with standard therapy ESMO-MCBS Primary endpoint PFS or TTP Median with standard therapy Other than OS or PFS 6 months> 6 months 1 year > 1 year
Evaluation form 2a: treatments with noncurative intent,primaryendpointos IF median OS with the standard treatment is 1 year Grade 4 HR 0.65 ANDGain 3 months Increase in2 year survival alone 10% Grade 3 HR 0.65 ANDGain 2.5-2.9 months Increase in2 year survival alone 5-<10% Grade 2 HR > 0.65-0.70 AND Gain 1.5-2.4 months Increase in2 year survival alone 3-<5% Grade 1 HR > 0.70 ORGain < 1.5 month Increase in2 year survival alone < 3% Mark with Xif relevant
Step 1 Evaluation form 2a: treatments withnoncurative intent, primary endpoint OS Preliminary magnitude of clinical benefit grade (highest grade scored) 4 3 2 1 Step 2 Step 3 Assessment QoL & grade 3-4 toxicities Does secondary endpoint QoL show improvement Are there statistically significantly < grade 3-4 toxicities impacting daily well-being* *not including alopecia, myelosuppression, but rather chronic nausea, diarrhea, fatigue, etc. Adjustment: Upgrade 1 level if improved QoL or less toxicity or is shown Final adjusted magnitude of clinical benefit grade 5 4 3 2 1
Evaluation form 2b: treatments with noncurative intent, primary endpoint PFS or TTP Studies with median PFS with standard treatment 6 months Grade 3 HR 0.65 ANDGain 1.5 months Mark with Xif relevant Grade 2 HR 0.65 BUT Gain < 1.5 months Grade 1 HR > 0.65
Evaluation form 2b: treatmentswith noncurative intent, primaryendpointpfs or TTP Step 1 Preliminary magnitude of clinical benefit grade (highest grade scored) 3 2 1 Toxicity and QoLadjustment when only a PFS improvement
What is new in v1.1 Evaluation form 2a: for therapies that are not likely to be curative with primary endpoint of OS with separate sheets for: IF median OS with the standard treatment is <12 months IF median OS with the standard treatment >12 month, <36 months IF median OS with the standard treatment >36 months Upgrade 1 level if study had early crossover because of early stopping or detection of survival advantage at interim analysis Upgrade 1 level if there is a long term plateau in the PFS curve, and there is >10% improvement in PFS at 2 years Grade 3 PFS >6 months Mark with X if relevant ORR (PR+CR) >60% ORR (PR+CR) >20% but less than 60% AND Duration of response >9 months
