Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between tumor volume changes, squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC-Ag), carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125) and the prognosis of cervical cancer patients with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy and their combined prediction of prognosis.Methods:One hundred and twenty-eight patients in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from February 2018 to February 2020, with cervical cancer undergoing radical concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy were selected for a prospective study. According to different prognostic effects, the patients were divided into poor prognosis group (44 cases) and good prognosis group (84 cases). The general data, tumor reduction rate (TVRR), SCC-Ag, CEA, and CA125 levels were compared between the two groups, and the Logistic regression equation was used to analyze the prognostic factors of patients with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cervical cancer. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to analyze the performance of each index and the joint prediction of prognosis. Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis and log-rank (Mantel-Cox) were used to test the survival curves of TVRR, SCC-Ag, CEA, CA125 high-risk individuals and low-risk individuals.Results:The TVRR in the poor prognosis group was significantly lower than that in the good prognosis group: (76.63 ± 7.52)% vs. (85.54 ± 6.71)%, the SCC-Ag, CEA, CA125 were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group: (6.98 ± 2.15) μg/L vs. (4.61 ± 1.37) μg/L, (9.34 ± 2.23) μg/L vs. (5.76 ± 1.87) μg/L, (68.79 ± 12.01) kU/L vs. (49.97 ± 15.22) kU/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Logistic regression showed that TVRR, SCC-Ag, CEA and CA125 were significant factors influencing the prognosis of patients with concurrent chemoradiotherapy for cervical cancer ( P<0.05). Among the single indicators, TVRR predicted the highest prognosis AUC, and the combined prognostic AUC of all indicators (0.837, 95% CI 0.761 to 0.920) was higher than any single indicator, with a sensitivity of 81.82% and specificity of 84.52%. The survival curves of TVRR, SCC-Ag, CEA, CA125 between high-risk and low-risk patients showed statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The changes in tumor volume, SCC-Ag, CEA, CA125 and the prognosis of patients with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy for cervical cancer have a certain correlation. The combined examination of the four in the early stage is expected to become a new approach to clinically predict the prognosis of cervical cancer and make appropriate treatment plans.
