Background: PSCC is a rare form of exocrine pancreatic malignancy with a dismal prognosis. Using the NCDB, we determined the prognostic factors and survival outcomes of PSCC in the United States. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with histologically confirmed PSCC from 2004-2015 using NCDB. Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to perform overall survival (OS) analysis. Hazard Ratios were calculated using the Cox-proportional hazard method. Results: Of the 654 cases included in our analysis, 46% were female. Median age at diagnosis was 70 years and did not differ by sex (p = 0.19). The proportion of patients with stage I, II, III and IV diseases were 5%, 18%, 12%, and 54%, respectively (10%, unknown stage). Among these, 23% (35 of 150) of stage I and II disease, 10% (8 of 78) of stage III, and 2% (7 of 353) received surgical resection of the primary tumor. The rate of R0 resection was 74% in stage I and II; 38% in stage III; 29% in stage IV disease. Median OS for the entire cohort was 4 months and was significantly higher in patients who received surgical resection of the primary tumor (17 vs. 4 months, p < 0.001). On stage wise sub-group analysis, stage I-II patients had OS benefit from surgery (21 vs. 5 months, p < 0.001) as opposed to stage III (7 vs. 6 months, p = 0.31) and IV disease (5 vs. 3 months, p = 0.17). Adjuvant chemotherapy had no role in prolonging survival in stage I-II disease (20 vs 24 months, p = 0.6). Stage IV patients treated with chemotherapy had a better median OS than those without (5 vs. 2 months, p < 0.0001). On Cox multivariable analysis, stage IV disease (HR: 1.92 CI: 1.46-2.52, p < 0.001) and advanced patient age (HR: 1.02; CI:1.01-1.03, p < 0.001 were associated with poor OS, whereas OS was not dependent on the sex, race, grade, insurance status, surgery, and chemotherapy. Conclusions: This is the largest registry-based study on PSCC to date. PSCC had a diverse OS varied significantly according to increasing age and stage of the disease at presentation. Surgical resection of primary tumor was associated with improved OS in stages I-II, whereas chemotherapy improved OS in stage IV disease. The results of our study may aid the prognostication of patients and in treatment decision making.
