Abstract

ObjectivesThe main objective of this study was to identify the key predictors and construct a nomogram that can be used to predict the overall survival of individuals with non-endometrioid endometrial cancer. MethodsA total of 2686 non-endometrioid endometrial cancer patients confirmed between 1988 and 2018 were selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. They were divided into a training cohort and an internal validation cohort. Independent risk factors were chosen by Cox regression analyses. A predictive nomogram model for overall survival was constructed based on above factors. A Chinese cohort of 41 patients was collected to be an external validation cohort. ResultsEight variables were estimated as independent predictors for overall survival. A nomogram was established using these factors. The C-index for predicting the overall survival of patients with non-endometrioid endometrial cancer from the nomogram was 0.734, 0.700, and 0.767 in training, internal, and external validation cohort, respectively. Calibration plots and decision curve analysis showed that the nomogram was valuable for further clinical application. ConclusionWe constructed a nomogram which can be used as an effective tool to predict the 3- and 5-year overall survival of Non-endometrioid endometrial cancer patients.
