摘要
Aim: The study aimed to define the true impact of pancreatic metastases (PM) from renal cell carcinoma on overall survival (OS) in patients treated with first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Patients and Methods: Overall, 321 consecutive patients were analysed. The influence of PM on OS was assessed using the Kaplan-Meier estimator and the log-rank test (unadjusted and adjusted) and two multivariabe Cox proportional hazards regressions (CPHR). Results: Thirty-four patients (10%) had PM and 287 (90%) had sites of metastasis other than the pancreas; the median OS was 46.1 and 23.1 months, respectively (unadjusted log-rank p=0.020; adjusted log-rank p=0.544). The PM status was an insignificant factor for OS in both CPHR (hazard ratio(HR)=0.84, p=0.603, and HR=0.66, p=0.098). Conclusion: The presence of PM was not an independent prognostic factor, but was rather an indicator of an indolent course of the disease.
