Introduction: Accurate survival data for patients with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) across the UK has been difficult to capture. Individual centres often report good survival rates, however, national data has not previously been available.
Materials and methods: NET patient survival was calculated for England using the Public Health England (PHE) National Cancer Registration and Analysis Service (NCRAS) dataset which captures tumour stage using TNM staging. Grade was based on dysplasia and morphology. The Kaplan-Meier survival method was used to analyse overall death in 12,755 patients diagnosed with a NET between 2013 and 2015.
Results: The 1-year overall survival was 75% for NETs (95% CI, 74.576.1), 72% in males vs 79% in females (P < .001). Survival by age group was as follows: 055 years 90% (95% CI, 89.291.2); 5665 80% (95% CI, 78.381.4); 6675 71% (95% CI, 70.072.9); >75 60% (95% CI, 57.961.5) (with P < .001 for comparisons between all age groups). Survival decreased with increasing grade (1/2 and 3) and stage (1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively):
Colorectal (n=2712):: Grade 1/2 (excluding Mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC)): 99% (97.699.4); 97% (93.998.3); 99% (95.499.7); 80% (72.986.2)
Grade 3 (excluding MANEC): 89% (70.496.4); 90% (72.996.8); 67% (56.376.2); 22% (16.327.9)
MANEC: 98% (85.899.7); 97% (92.399.2); 85% (74.491.8); 60% (45.272.6)
Overall (including unknown stage): 88% (86.588.9)
Lung (n=2,460, excluding *small and large cell lung cancer):
Grade 1/2: 98% (97.299.1); 98% (93.799.6); 93% (82.997.4); 69% (59.176.8)
Grade 3: 93% (89.495.6); 81% (71.488.2); 63% (55.070.7); 26% (22.530.0)
Overall: 74% (72.776.2) in comparison, *SCLC (n=97,239) 42% (42.242.8)
Pancreas (n=1,207):
Grade 1/2: 97% (92.798.7); 95% (88.897.6); NK; 85% (79.789.6)
Grade 3: 87% (68.394.8); 87% (58.696.7); 56% (30.574.7); 42% (35.948.9)
Overall: 81% (78.382.8)
Small bowel (n=1,688):
Grade 1/2: 98% (90.899.4); 96% (89.798.5); 96% (93.697.3); 88% (84.390.7)
Grade 3: NK; NK; 83% (60.193.1); 72% (60.580.5)
Overall: 90% (88.691.5)
Conclusion: The survival results show that tumour grade has the potential to be a good prognostic indicator for all types of NET. This is the first large series regarding MANEC demonstrating poor outcomes.
