Background and aimsThe aim of the study was to present a comprehensive analysis of disease recurrence in a large Danish cohort of women with early-stage endometrial cancer treated according to national guidelines.MethodsAll women diagnosed with stage I or II endometrial cancer in 2005–2009 were included in a population-based historical cohort derived from the Danish Gynaecological Cancer Database. Disease recurrence up to 3 years after the primary diagnosis was identified using national registers and hospital charts. Follow-up on survival ended on 31st December 2014. We evaluated the predictive value of clinico-pathological and sociodemographic variables using multivariate logistic regression.ResultsRecurrence within 3 years of the primary treatment was diagnosed in 183 (7%) of the included 2612 women. Site of recurrence significantly impacted on overall survival as the 5-year survival rate was 64.8% for women with vaginal recurrence and 17.5% in women with distant recurrence. Factors predictive of recurrence included the International Federation of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage (OR: IB = 1.91, stage II = 3.91), Charlson comorbidity index of 3 (OR 1.86), non-endometrioid histology (OR 1.81) and being outside of the workforce (OR 1.81). Vaginal recurrence was predicted by FIGO stage only (OR: IB = 1.88, II = 2.79), while extra-vaginal recurrence was predicted by FIGO stage (OR: IB = 2.12, II = 3.31), Charlson comorbidity index of 3 (OR 1.88) and non-endometrioid histology (OR 2.51).ConclusionsFuture research should seek to understand the underlying mechanisms of the identified predictive factors to improve recurrence prediction and to reduce morbidity and mortality.
