e16306 Background: Duodenal adenocarcinoma (DA) is a rare malignancy with poor outcomes. Tumor markers are used to assess disease response and to monitor for recurrence. Specifically, CA-19-9 and CEA have been validated for use in pancreatic cancer and colorectal cancer, respectively. However, these tumor markers have never been validated in patients with DA. We aim to assess the association of these biomarkers with clinical outcomes in patients with DA. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study. After obtaining IRB approval (IRB202102705), we accessed the University of Florida medical records of patient treated for DA from January 1, 2006, until December 31, 2021. CA 19-9 and CEA were collected as continuous variables and were analyzed as binary variables: normal vs. high, using the maximum normal value as a cut-off (normal CA 19-9 < = 35 U/ml; CEA < = 3 ng/ml). Analysis was conducted using Kaplan Meyer curves, log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards model. Results: A total of 68 patients were included in the final analysis. Median age was 67 years and median follow-up was 22.2 months. CA 19-9 and CEA were elevated in 36.8% and 48.5% of patients, respectively. Patients with an elevated CA 19-9 had a median overall survival (OS) of 8.5 months vs. 27.4 months in patients with normal levels (HR 1.67; 95%CI 0.94–2.99; p = 0.081). Patients with an elevated CEA had a median OS of 13.4 months vs. 16.8 months in patients with normal level normal levels (HR 1.43; 95%CI 0.81–2.52; p value = 0.221). In a sensitivity analysis, a concomitant elevation of both tumoral markers was significantly associated with worsened OS (HR 1.9; 95%CI 1.05–3.06; p = 0.035). Conclusions: In patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma, elevation of both CA 19-9 and CEA was associated with a statistically significant worse overall survival. CA 19-9 level had a higher prognostic impact on OS than CEA levels. To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the role of CA 19-9 and CEA in patients with DA. Further research is required for validation.[Table: see text]
