We addressed this knowledge gap. METHODS: mACC patients were identified within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (SEER 2004-2020) and we tested for differences according to adrenalectomy status. Kaplan-Meier plots, multivariable Cox regression models and landmark analyses were used. Sensitivity analyses focused on use of systemic therapy, contemporary (2012-2020) vs. historical (2004-2011), single vs. multiple metastatic sites and assessable specific solitary metastatic sites (lung only and liver only). RESULTS: Of 543 mACC patients, 194 (36%) underwent adrenalectomy. In multivariable analyses, adrenalectomy was associated with lower overall mortality without (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.39; p<0.001), as well as with three months' landmark analyses (HR: 0.57, p=0.002). The same association effect with three months' landmark analyses was recorded in systemic therapy exposed patients (HR: 0.49, p<0.001), contemporary patients (HR: 0.57, p=0.004), historical patients (HR: 0.42 , p<0.001), and in those with lung only solitary metastasis (HR: 0.50, p=0.02). Conversely, no significant association was recorded in systemic therapy naïve patients (HR: 0.68, p=0.3), those with multiple metastatic sites (HR: 0.55, p=0.07) and those with liver only solitary metastasis (HR: 0.98, p=0.9). CONCLUSIONS: The current results indicate a potential protective effect from adrenalectomy in mACC that applies to both historical and contemporary patients. This effect is pronounced in systemic therapy exposed and lung only metastasis patients.
