Clinical and outcome patterns in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) within a Latin American cohort.

e23308 Background: Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) is an heterogenous disease which is usually diagnosed inadvanced stages. Despite the advent of new therapies, the outcomes for this disease remain poor in certain scenarios. We describe the clinical features and survival outcomes in a developing country. Methods: Retrospective study based on case review of women with newly diagnosed EOC between 2015 and 2017 at Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas (INEN), Lima- Peru. Descriptive analysis was conducted for clinical characteristics, epidemiological factors and treatment. PFS was calculated from the date of diagnosis until the first documented progression and OS from the date of diagnosis to death. Both were calculated using the Kaplan Meier curve. Results: 234 patients were included, the most common histology subtype was high grade serous carcinoma (47,5%), followed by mucinous (15.9%) and clear cell carcinoma (15.4%). Median age was 55.7 yo (range 19-88). Breast and ovarian cancer family history were reported in 3.8% and 3.0%, respectively. 35.8% of patients were overweight, and 12.5% were obese. Most patients (61.5%) were diagnosed at advanced disease (III-IV) and the most common site of metastasis was liver (43.6%) and lung/pleural (28.2%). BCRA testing was performed only in 6% of patients, and 4/14 patients had a pathologic mutation. Ca125 was elevated in 86.2% of patients. Regarding treatment, all patients with early stage disease (I-II) underwent surgical staging. For advanced stage disease, 47.6% (69/145) of patients underwent upfront surgery and 41.4% (60/145) received platinum-based chemotherapy in neoadjuvant setting; 57.3% (35/61) of these patients achieved optimal secondary cytoreduction. With a median follow up of 74,4 months, median PFS was 32.61 months (0.6-474) and global median OS was 58.13 months. Median OS for early disease (I-II) was not reached and for advanced disease (III-IV) was 33.73 months. Survival rate at 5y for all stages was 45.2%; 60.8% and 28.4% for early and advanced disease, respectively. Conclusions: These findings highlight the prevalence of high-grade serous carcinoma and the significance of advanced-stage diagnosis in the survival outcomes. In the era of targeted therapies, the lack of access to BRCA detection tests restricts therapeutic options and, consequently, hinders responses in this group of patients.
