Primary cardiac sarcomas: A multi‐national retrospective review

Background Primary cardiac sarcoma (PCS) is a rare but often fatal disease. The current study aimed to analyze the impact of baseline demographics, local and systemic therapies in a contemporary cohort.

description Background Primary cardiac sarcoma (PCS) is a rare but often fatal disease. The current study aimed to analyze the impact of baseline demographics, local and systemic therapies in a contemporary cohort. Methods Clinical records of PCS across six institutions in three continents were reviewed. Kaplan‐Meier method was used to estimate survival. Cox proportional hazard model was used to determine variables impacting progression‐free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS). Results Sixty‐one patients with PCS (1996‐2016) were identified. The median age at diagnosis was 46 (range 18‐79); 36% (n = 22) presented with metastatic disease. The most common histology was angiosarcoma (n = 24, 39%). A total of 46 patients received surgery (75%) but only 5 (8%) patients achieved R0 resection. Multi‐modality treatment to the primary tumor was given to 28 patients (46%; localized disease 23/39 (59%); metastatic disease 5/22 (23%)). The median OS for the entire cohort was 17.5 months (95% CI 9.5‐20.6), with seven (11%) patients surviving longer than 36 months. On multi‐variate analysis, age

On multi‐variate analysis, age &lt;65 (P = 0.01) was the only significant favorable prognostic factor. For first‐line palliative chemotherapy, the median PFS was 4.4 months (95% CI 2.9‐7.7 months). The best response for first‐line chemotherapy was 32% (CR = 1, PR = 9). No significant improvement in OS was identified in patients presenting throughout the 20‐year period of this review. Conclusion Younger age at diagnosis was associated with improved outcome although the prognosis of PCS remains poor. Given the lack of improvement in survival, further dedicated research is required. Primary cardiac sarcoma (PCS) is a rare disease with poor prognosis. The survival had not improved in the past 20 years. Identification of prognostic factors and better treatment modalities to PCD is crucial to improve the outcome of PCS patients.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2045-7634</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2045-7634</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1002/cam4.1897</identifier><identifier>PMID: 30575309</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc</publisher><subject>Adolescent ; Adult ; Age ; Aged ; Chemotherapy ; Clinical Cancer Research ; Demography ; Diagnosis ; Female ; Heart Neoplasms - diagnosis ; Heart Neoplasms - epidemiology ; Heart Neoplasms - pathology ; Heart Neoplasms - therapy ; Humans ; Male ; Medical prognosis ; Metastases ; Metastasis ; Middle Aged ; Original Research ; Patients ; primary cardiac sarcoma ; radiotherapy ; Retrospective Studies ; Sarcoma ; Sarcoma - diagnosis ; Sarcoma - epidemiology ; Sarcoma - pathology ; Sarcoma - therapy ; sarcoma chemotherapy ; Surgery ; Survival ; Survival Analysis ; Treatment Outcome ; Tumor Burden ; Young Adult</subject><ispartof>Cancer medicine (Malden, MA), 2019-01, Vol.8 (1), p.104-110</ispartof><rights>2018 The Authors. published by John Wiley &amp; Sons Ltd.</rights><rights>2018 The Authors.
