Age is a known prognostic factor for many sarcoma subtypes, however in the literature there are limited data on the different risk profiles of different age groups for osteosarcoma survival. This study aims to provide an overview of survival in patients with high-grade osteosarcoma in different age groups and prognostic variables for survival and local control among the entire cohort. In this single center retrospective cohort study, 402 patients with skeletal high-grade osteosarcoma were diagnosed and treated with curative intent between 1978 and 2017 at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC). Prognostic factors for survival were analyzed using a Cox proportional hazard model. In this study poor overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were associated with increasing age. Age groups, tumor size, poor histopathological response, distant metastasis (DM) at presentation and local recurrence (LR) were important independent prognostic factors influencing OS and EFS. Differences in outcome among different age groups can be partially explained by patient and treatment characteristics.

Abstract BACKGROUND Chordomas are rare tumors arising from the embryonal notochord presenting at the base of skull, spine, or sacrum. Pediatric chordomas (PC) comprise less than 5% of all chordomas and are more likely to be atypical or dedifferentiated. Evidence for management is limited to single institution series with 5-year overall survival (OS) between 60-100%. METHODS Using the NCDB Participant User File, a retrospective observational cohort study was performed. The cohort was defined using the bone-soft-tissue, brain, and central nervous system databases selecting for cases with chordoma ICD-03 codes and age ≤ 25 years. Kaplan Meier method, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression were performed. RESULTS 297 patients from 2004-2017 met inclusion criteria for descriptive analysis with 269 cases included for survival analysis. Mean age was 16.9 years, with 10% less than age 5. The cohort was 55% female, 8% Black, and 79% White. Primary sites included bones of the skull (70%), spine (22%), and pelvis (6%). Regarding treatment, 7% had no resection, 49% sub-total resection (STR), 33% gross-total resection (GTR), and 11% unspecified resection. 51% received radiation therapy with 46% of those receiving proton therapy. 7% received chemotherapy. The 1, 3, 5, and 10-year OS was 95%, 86%, 77%, and 72%. Selected prognostic factors from univariable OS model for OS analysis included: age > 5 (HR 0.30 (95% CI 0.16-0.57) p = 0.0002), surgical resection [GTR (HR 0.28 (95% CI 0.12-0.63) p = 0.0023) and STR (HR 0.27 (95% CI 0.12-0.59) p = 0.0011)], and radiation dose ≥ 7200cGy (HR 0.40 (95% CI 0.16-0.99) p = 0.047). CONCLUSION In the largest cohort reported for PC, 3 and 10-year OS was 86% and 72%. Age, surgery, and radiation dose are important prognostic factors. Propensity score analysis to gauge effect of treatment, tumor, and patient characteristics on OS is forthcoming.
