The Moore Criteria: Applicability in a diverse, non-trial, recurrent cervical cancer population
2020
Abstract Objective The Moore Criteria is a prognostic index for recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer based on five factors. The criteria were developed retrospectively and validated prospectively in clinical trial populations receiving systemic chemotherapy (C). Our objective was to evaluate the prognostic value of the Moore Criteria in a largely minority, non-trial population at first recurrence. Methods Patients treated for recurrent cervical cancer diagnosed between 2012 and 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. Progression free survival (PFS) was defined from the date of recurrence to date of second recurrence. Overall survival (OS) was defined from the date of recurrence to date of death. Results Of 274 patients identified, 78 were treated in the second line. 48 (61.5%) were Hispanic, 22 (28.2%) were black, and 7 (9%) were white non-Hispanic. By Moore criteria, 9 patients (11.5%) were classified as low-risk, 48 (61.5%) as moderate risk, and 21 (26.9%) as high-risk. 53 patients (67.9%) received C, and 25 (32.1%) received other treatment modalities without C. The high-risk category carried a significantly higher hazard ratio for both PFS (5.24, p Conclusion The Moore Criteria carries prognostic value across a diverse recurrent cervical cancer population outside of the clinical trial setting. Our data suggest that in a non-trial population, black race is not predictive of worse OS or PFS.
