4121 Background: Microsatellite instability (MSI) is a prognostic factor in colorectal cancer. Whether it predicts the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) on overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) is controversial. Methods: Studies were identified by an electronic search using online PubMed, with simultaneous keywords (colorectal neoplasm, microsatellite instability, chemotherapy, prognosis). Abstracts from ASCO and AACR proceedings were reviewed. Articles were obtained from cross-checking of references and from a previous prognostic meta-analysis (MA) (Popat, 2005). We used EasyMA software, available online. A Hazard Ratio (HR) < 1 for MSI-high (MSI-H) status compared with microsatellite stable (MSS) meant a better survival. Results: Our MA found 21 studies (4 abstracts). Statistical calculations were performed in 11 studies (5087 patients including 2879 receiving 5FU-based CT; mean age: 63 years; 1489 stage II, 2648 stage III (64%)). MSI-H was found in 644 patients (15% of total), MSS in 3624. Seven studies (2 randomized) assessed 2 cohorts receiving or not adjuvant CT, 4 studies only included patients receiving CT. Global HR OS (9 studies) was 0.79 (95% confidence interval or CI: 0.64–0.98; p = 0.03). Global HR RFS (8 studies) was 0.67 (95% CI: 0.54–0.83; p < 0.001). A MA on stage III patients (4 studies, 719 patients, 137 MSI-H) found a higher survival among MSI-H than MSS patients receiving CT (HR OS: 0.71, 95% CI 0.49–1.03; HR RFS 0.56, 95% CI 0.42–0.75). Interaction between MSI status and CT status was statistically significant on OS and RFS (4 studies). A MA among MSI-H patients (7 studies) found no survival difference between patients under CT or not: HR OS: 0.70 (95% CI 0.44–1.09), HR RFS: 0.96 (95% CI: 0.62–1.49). Conclusions: Adjuvant CT significantly improved survival in MSI-H compared with MSS patients. MSI-H stage III patients receiving CT survived more than MSS. MSI-H status did not predict response to CT compared with no treatment. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Background Previous literature demonstrates correlations between comorbidities and failure to complete adjuvant chemotherapy. Frailty and socioeconomic disparities have also been implicated in affecting cancer treatment outcomes. This study examines the effect of demographics, comorbidities, frailty, and socioeconomic status on chemotherapy completion rates in colorectal cancer patients. Methods This was an observational case-control study using retrospective data from Stage II and III colorectal cancer patients offered chemotherapy between January 01, 2013 and January 01, 2018. Data was obtained using the cancer registry, supplemented with chart review. Patients were divided based on treatment completion and compared with respect to comorbidities, age, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score, and insurance status using univariate and multivariate analyses. Results 228 patients were identified: 53 Stage II and 175 Stage III. Of these, 24.5% of Stage II and 30.3% of Stage III patients did not complete chemotherapy. Neither ECOG status nor any comorbidity predicted failure to complete treatment. Those failing to complete chemotherapy were older (64.4 vs 60.8 years, P = .043). Additionally, those with public assistance or self-pay were less likely to complete chemotherapy than those with private insurance ( P = .049). Both factors (older age/insurance status) remained significant on multivariate analysis (increasing age at diagnosis: OR 1.03, P =.034; public insurance: OR 1.84, P = .07; and self-pay status: OR 4.49, P = .03). Conclusions No comorbidity was associated with failure to complete therapy, nor was frailty, as assessed by ECOG score. Though frailty was not significant, increasing age was, possibly reflecting negative attitudes toward chemotherapy in older populations. Insurance status also predicted failure to complete treatment, suggesting disparities in access to treatment, affected by socioeconomic factors.

53 Background: Despite surgery, the 5-year risk of systemic recurrence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in the absence of any further therapy is approximately 50 % for those with lymph node involvement and 20 ─ 30 % if the lymph nodes are negative. Adjuvant chemotherapy contributes to improved disease-free and overall survival for node-positive (stage III) or high-risk node negative (stage IIB) colon cancer. Similar benefits are observed for adjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. Previous research shows varied rates of adherence to published adjuvant chemotherapy Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) for CRC, although population-based data is scarce. Purpose: The aim of this analysis was to assess adherence rates to adjuvant chemotherapy prescription within 16 weeks of surgery according to local and international CPGs for CRC patients treated with curative intent between 2008 and 2019 at the Uruguayan National Cancer Institute. Data regarding factors associated with chemotherapy receipt beyond 16 weeks from surgery and chemotherapy non receipt was also retrieved and analysed. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical and pathology reports of 833 patients diagnosed with CRC at our institution. Patients with stages IIB or III CRC who underwent curative-intent surgery were identified and included in the present analysis. A 16-week benchmark timeline for treatment initiation from date of surgery was considered. Fisher’s exact test was used to determine factors independently associated with receipt of chemotherapy and meeting the 16-week benchmark (p 0.05). Results: A total of 400 patients were identified of which 72% had peritoneal colorectal tumors and 28% had sub-peritoneal rectal tumors. Approximately 70% of the latter group received neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Considering the total cohort, 61% received adjuvant chemotherapy. Factors predicting chemotherapy receipt in the peritoneal colorectal group were age ≤ 70 and stage III disease. In the sub-peritoneal rectal group no significant effect was found. The 16-week benchmark was met in 72% (175) of those receiving chemotherapy and 70.6% (167) completed 6 months of systemic adjuvant treatment. A total of 156 patients (39%) did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy. The factors predicting chemotherapy non receipt were age > 70 and stage IIB in the peritoneal colorectal group. Conclusions: This analysis of adherence to CPGs identified several factors associated with chemotherapy non receipt and chemotherapy receipt outside of timeline benchmarks from date of curative-intent surgery in Montevideo, Uruguay. The two main factors significantly associated with chemotherapy non receipt were advanced age and lower disease stage. To our knowledge, our data is the first to elucidate these specific factors in the Uruguayan CRC patient population.

Abstract Background Stage II colorectal cancer with microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) has been proven to have a better prognosis. However, in advanced stage, this trend remains controversial. This study aimed to explore the prognostic role of MSI-H in stage III and IV colorectal cancer (CRC) through meta-analysis. Methods A comprehensive search was performed in PubMed, Cochrane Central Library, and Embase databases. All randomized clinical trials and non-randomized studies were included based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and on survival after a radical operation with or without chemotherapy. The adjusted log hazard ratios (HRs) were used to estimate the prognostic value between MSI-H and microsatellite-stable CRCs. The random-effects model was used to estimate the pooled effect size. Results Thirty-six studies were included. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) and non-RCT were analyzed separately. For stage III CRCs, pooled HR for overall survival (OS) was 0.96 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.75–.123) in the RCT subgroup and 0.89 (95% CI 0.62–1.28) in the non-RCT subgroup. For disease-free survival (DFS), the HR for the RCT group was 0.83 (95% CI 0.65–1.07), similar to the non-RCT subgroup (0.83, 95% CI 0.65–1.07). Disease-specific survival (DSS) was also calculated, which had an HR of 1.07 (95% CI 0.68–1.69) in the non-RCT subgroup. All these results showed that MSI-H has no beneficial effects in stage III CRC. For stage IV CRC, the HR for OS in the RCT subgroup was 1.23 (95% CI 0.92–1.64) but only two RCTs were included. For non-RCT study, the combined HR for OS and DFS was 1.10 (95% CI 0.77–1.51) and 0.72 (95% CI 0.53–0.98), respectively, suggesting the beneficial effect for DFS and non-beneficial effect for OS. Conclusion For stage III CRC, MSI-H had no prognostic effect for OS, DFS, and DSS. For stage IV CRC, DFS showed a beneficial result, whereas OS did not; however, the included studies were limited and needed further exploration.
