Prognosis of overall and disease-free survival in patients with grade 3 astrocytomas (anaplastic astrocytoma, WHO 2016)

Close metadata

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A retrospective study included 389 patients diagnosed with grade 3 astrocytoma. We analyzed dependence of overall and disease-free survival from the following factors: gender, age of onset of disease, tumor extent, surgery, neurological disorders before and after surgery (NANO grading system), Ki67 index, postoperative radio- and chemotherapy (number courses, treatment regimens).

RESULTS

Significant risk factors for overall and disease-free survival were spread and volume of tumor, postoperative neurological aggravation, Ki67 index, IDH mutation, radio- and chemotherapy. Age, frontal lobe tumor and disease manifestation variant were significant only for overall, but not for disease-free survival.

CONCLUSION

This study was based on material of one of the largest clinical series of patients with AA operated on in one center in «molecular» era. Our results are consistent with previous data. Analysis of tumor biology and risk factors for IDH-negative AA without molecular signs of glioblastoma may be perspective.
