Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of denosumab in treatment of patients with pelvic giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) during perioperative period. Methods This is a retrospective observational study. Twenty-three patients diagnosed with pelvic GCTB undergoing perioperative denosumab treatment in Musculoskeletal Tumor Center of Peking University People's Hospital from January 2014 to December 2016 were reviewed. The subjective adverse reactions and mandibular X-ray films were used to assess the drug safety. As for efficacy, imaging findings (including X-ray, CT, magnetic resonance imaging) were reviewed. MSTS-93 scoring system was applied in the postoperative functional assessment. Histological response rate, objective response rate, clinical benefit rate and event-free survival rate were all used to deficit the efficacy of denosumab in the treatment of pelvic GCTB combined with surgery. All the results of postoperative were compared statistically with pelvic GCTB patients who underwent surgery in the same hospital from 1999 to 2009. Results All the patients were firstly diagnosed as classic GCTB except for one case which was malignant pelvic GCTB. All patients received denosumab preoperatively and/or postoperatively, and the average number of medications was 8.43. According to the surgical patterns, patients were divided into intralesional surgery group (13 cases) and wide resection group (10 cases). The follow-up was 5-47 months(mean:27.30 months),recurrence was observed in 2 cases in the intralesional surgery group, none in the wide resection group. After drug administration, 13 cases were partial response, 7 cases were stable disease, the objective response rate was 65.0 % (13/20), and the histologically clearance rate of giant cells was 85.0 % (17/20). No case of osteonecrosis of the jaw was observed in this study, and all laboratory indicators were normal. The average postoperative MSTS-93 score was 26.87. Compared with pelvic GCTB patients who underwent surgical treatment from 1999 to 2009, in the intralesional surgery group, there was no significant difference in the recurrence rate [15.4 % (2/13) vs. 30.8 % (4/13), P = 0.514], but the limb function was significantly increased (P= 0.002). Conclusions Denosumab combined with surgery plays an important role in the multidisciplinary treatment of pelvic GCTB. The neoadjuvant strategy can reduce patient's intraoperative blood loss by shrinking the tumor size which makes the intralesional curettage surgery possible, and also diminishing the recurrence rate. But more attention should be paid to secondary malignant GCTB during the use of denousmab.
