Addition of External Beam Radiation Therapy to Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Patients With Stage IIIC Uterine Endometrioid Carcinoma: Utilization and Outcomes

imageObjectives: Evaluate whether the addition of external beam radiation (EBRT) to adjuvant chemotherapy with or without vaginal brachytherapy is associated with better survival for patients with stage IIIC endometrioid endometrial carcinoma. Materials and Methods: Patients diagnosed between 2010 and 2015 with apparent early-stage endometrioid adenocarcinoma, without a history of another tumor, who underwent hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy and had positive lymph nodes were identified in the National Cancer Database. Those who received adjuvant chemotherapy (defined as receipt of treatment within 6 mo from surgery) and had at least 1 month of follow-up were selected for further analysis. Overall survival was compared between patients who did and did not receive EBRT within 6 months from surgery with the log-rank test. A Cox model was also constructed to control for confounders. Results: A total of 3116 patients were identified; 1458 (46.8%) received chemotherapy without and 1658 (53.2%) with EBRT. Pathologic characteristics (tumor grade, size, endocervical, and lymph-vascular invasion) were comparable between the two groups. Patients who received external beam radiation had better survival compared with those who did not, P=0.001; 5-year overall survival rates were 83.1% and 77.9%, respectively. After controlling for patient age, race, presence of comorbidities, insurance status, tumor size, grade and endocervical invasion, and the presence of lymph-vascular invasion, the addition of EBRT was associated with a survival benefit (HR: 0.75, 95% CI: 0.62, 0.91). Conclusions: For patients with endometrioid adenocarcinoma metastatic to the lymph nodes, addition of external beam radiation to adjuvant chemotherapy may be associated with a survival benefit.
