Oncological outcomes of patients with oligometastatic oesophagogastric cancer.
European Journal of Surgical Oncology 2024 April
Oligometastatic oesophagogastric cancer was recently defined by consensus as the presence of no more than two metastases and an 18-week period of oncological stability during chemotherapy. The number of patients who fit this criterion and whether their oncological outcome differs from those with multi-metastatic disease is unknown. We analysed a database of 497 patients from 2017 to 2021 with metastatic oesophageal cancer. In total, 36 (7.2%) had oligometastatic disease and significantly improved median overall survival (mOS) versus multi-metastatic disease. In synchronous OMD, mOS was 26.8 months versus 7.3 months and in metachronous OMD, 38.6 months versus 6.1 months (both p < 0.0001). A subset of oligometastatic patients who underwent surgical management of their oligometastases after primary tumour resection demonstrated significantly increased mOS compared with systemic treatment alone (60 months versus 24.4 months; p < 0.038). Oligometastatic oesophagogastric cancer is associated with improved oncological outcome when compared to multi-metastatic disease. Further work is needed to identify patients who will benefit from aggressive treatment of metastatic oesophagogastric cancer.
