Specific organ metastases and prognosis in lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study aims to characterize the specific organ metastatic rates in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients and identify the prognosis-associated factors.

Methods

Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database, 40 117 patients diagnosed with positive histology as the only primary LUAD were included. We stratified patients by diagnosed year, age, sex, race/ethnicity, marital status, insurance, location, TNM stage, organ-specific metastases, surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. We performed multivariable logistic and Cox regression to identify the factors associated with the presence of specific organ metastases and prognosis predictors.

Results

For the 40 117 LUAD patients, 43.69%, 26.25%, 19.66%, 10.60%, and 17.89% had specific organ,
