Background: One fifth of patients with epithelial ovarian cancers (EOC) present at an early stage (FIGO stage I & II). However, there is scarcity of literature on the outcomes and its predictors. The aim of the study was to assess relapse free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS) and its predictors in early stage EOC. Patients and Methods: In this retrospectively study, we included all patients with early-stage EOC diagnosed between January 2010 and December 2018. Patients with synchronous malignancies were excluded. Clinical profile, clinico-pathological characteristics and treatment details were recorded. Patient underwent initial surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy in high-risk disease. Patients with stage IC, or stage II or clear cell histology or high-grade histology irrespective of stage/histological subtype were defined as high-risk disease. Fertility sparing surgery (FSS) [unilateral salpingo-oopherectomy with complete surgical staging] was performed in patient willing to preserve fertility. Primary objective was to assess RFS and OS in all patients with early stage EOC. Secondary objectives were to assess RFS and OS in early stage EOC with high-risk disease, predictors of RFS and OS, and outcomes of FSS. Survival probabilities were estimated according to Kaplan-Meier and compared by the log rank test. Cox's regression model was used to analyze the significance of various factors affecting relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: 195 patients with early stage EOC were recruited with median age of 47 years (range, 16–80 years). FIGO stage I and stage II were seen in 72 % and 18 % patients respectively. Serous subtype was reported in 58 % and high-grade histology in 66 %. 184 patients (94.0%) underwent optimal staging surgery, including 27 (14%) with fertility sparing surgery (FSS). 133 (91.7 %) of 145 patients with high-risk disease received adjuvant chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin), while 12 (8.3 %) patients opted to remain on observation. At median follow up of 56 months (95 % CI, 46–64 months), 49 (25 %) patients relapsed [including 3 of 27 (11.1 %) who underwent FSS], 18 patients died of progressive disease, while 31 patients were alive and disease free. Estimated OS at 5 years is 87.6 % (95 % CI 79.9–92.5) and RFS is 73.2 % (95 % CI 64.7–80.0). On multivariate analysis tumor grade was predictive of RFS (HR 2.9, p |
