ABSTRACT

Left-sided pancreatic adenocarcinoma (LPAC) has a poorer prognosis and has some distinct features compared to cancer of pancreatic head. A reliable model to predict the prognosis of LPAC following surgery is needed in clinical practice. Our study included 231 patients with resected LPAC from 3 Chinese pancreatic disease centers. Cox-regression analysis was conducted to identify independent risk factors of LAPC. Then we established a nomogram and performed C-index, receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration plot and decision curve analysis to assess its discrimination and calibration. As a result, CA19-9, surgical margin, tumor differentiation, lymph node metastasis, and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy were identified as significant prognostic factors. Based on these predictors, a novel nomogram was constructed. The nomogram achieved high C-indexes in the training cohort (0.805) and validation cohort (0.719), which were superior than the AJCC-8 staging system and other nomograms. The area under curve of the nomogram for predicting patients survival at 1-, 2-, and 3-year in training cohort were more than 0.8. Kaplan-Meier survival curve for the subgroups stratified based on the nomogram showed a better separation than the AJCC-8 stage I, II, III, indicating a superior ability of risk stratification for our model. In summary, we constructed a nomogram which showed a better predictive ability for patients' survival with LPAC after surgical resection than the AJCC staging system and other predictive models. Our model would be helpful to discriminate high-risk LPAC and facilitate clinical decision making.
