Popis: | e16710 Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) is a rare disease. There is a lack of data on the association of age and sociodemographic characteristics on survival in patients with NET. Our study aimed to evaluate clinical, molecular differences, and survival outcomes in young-onset PNET (YOPNET) and late-onset PNET (LOPNET). Methods: We used the National Cancer Database to identify patients with YOPNET ( < 50 years) and LOPNET (≥50 years) who underwent definitive surgery diagnosed between 2004 and 2015. We calculated the survival outcomes using Kaplan Meier and Cox regression methods before and after 1:1 nearest neighbor propensity score matching. We used the AACR Genie cohort to compare mutation frequency with the Benjamini-Hochberg method between YOPNET and LOPNET. Results: A total of 6,259 patients with PNET were selected, of which 27% were YOPNET. Patients with YOPNET were more likely to be female, black, and Hispanic, have private insurance versus LOPNET (all p < .001). Patients with YOPNET had less comorbidity score, but greater tumor size ( > 4 cm) and higher stage (all p < .001). Patients with LOPNET were more likely to be treated in an academic/research facility ( p < .001). Patients with YOPNET were more likely to be located in the head of the pancreas ( p = .004). Patients with YOPNET had better overall survival (OS) as compared to patients with LOPNET which persisted after propensity score matching ( p < .001). This difference continued after adjusting for clinically significant variables (unmatched p = .008; matched p = .01) (Table). For genomic analysis, we identified 177 patients; 27% was YOPNET, and patients with YOPNET had a significantly lower rate of MEN1 mutation than patients with LOPNET (26% vs. 56%, p < .001). Rate of other mutations was not different. Conclusions: Patients with YOPNET who underwent surgery had better OS than LOPNET and were more likely to have higher stage and greater tumor size. YOPNET represents a disease with distinct clinical and molecular features. [Table: see text] |
