Abstract

Background: Gynecologic cancer is a significant public health concern worldwide, with three of the top ten most common cancers affecting women. The increasing incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and the disproportionately poor outcomes in cancer patients necessitates urgent intervention. This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting the survivability of cancer patients with DVT, especially among gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancers. Methods An ambispective cohort study was conducted among gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients with DVT, from January 2011 until August 2013. All subjects were observed for three months. The presence of DVT was confirmed using Doppler ultrasound. The analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The statistical significance was determined using the log-rank/Mantel-Cox test. Results Among 223 cancer subjects with DVT, 61.4% of the subjects developed short-term mortality. In the overall group, the survival time was significantly lower in subjects who developed immobilization status (p-value <0.001), advanced cancer stages (p-value <0.045), and infection status (p-value <0.001). In the gynecologic cancer group, the survival time was significantly lower in subjects who developed immobilization (p-value 0.007) and infection status (p-value 0.021). In the non-gynecologic cancer group, the survival time was significantly lower in subjects who developed immobilization (p-value 0.008), infection (p-value 0.002), undergo cancer surgery (p-value 0.024), and received high-risk systemic therapy (p-value 0.048). Additionally, the most common infection was pneumonia (29.6%). Conclusions Both gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients who experienced DVT developed a high short-term mortality. Our finding of immobility, infection, advanced cancer stages, systemic therapy, and cancer surgery as risk factors that affect the survivability highlights the necessity of administering secondary prophylaxis as a standard procedure in clinical practice.

See the authors' detailed response to the review by Susanna Hilda Hutajulu and Juan Adrian Wiranata READ REVIEWER RESPONSES Introduction Gynecologic cancer is a major threat to global health and comprises three of the top ten most prevalent cancers affecting women worldwide. 1 , 2 Ovarian cancer is considered to be the deadliest gynecologic malignancy, with the highest mortality rate and the worst prognosis when compared to other types of gynecologic cancers. 2 – 6 Cervical cancer ranks fourth in terms of both incidence and mortality in women worldwide. In countries with a lower Human Development Index (HDI), cervical cancer is the second most prevalent cancer and cause of mortality, following breast cancer. Nonetheless, it is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in 28 countries and the primary cause of cancer-related deaths in 42 countries. The majority of these countries are located in Southeast Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. 7 After cervical cancer, endometrial cancer is the second most frequent malignancy in developing countries. 2 – 4 , 8 , 9 Gynecologic cancer is a challenging and complex disease that poses significant diagnostic and management difficulties. 10 It has been found to be underdiagnosed and undertreated, leading to a remarkable 85% of worldwide deaths in developing countries. Furthermore, low-income and middle-income countries have been significantly impacted, with death rates 18 times higher than those observed in wealthier countries. 7 , 10 For these countries, the massive economic impact posed by lost years of productivity and cancer-related deaths is an extensive challenge. 2 – 4 , 11 , 12 Over the past two decades, the association of malignancy with thrombosis events has been established by a significant number of epidemiological studies. 13 The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with active malignancy is four to seven times higher than in the healthy population, ensuring malignancy is one of the most prevalent and significant acquired risk factors for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). 14 – 16 DVT is a generally treatable condition that poses a significant threat to patients with malignancies. In fact, it is the second-greatest cause of death and has been found to be correlated with reduced survival rates in cancer patients. 14 , 17 The rising incidence of cancer-associated thrombosis poses an increasing burden on the healthcare system due to the high mortality rate and treatment costs. 18 The increasing burden of DVT in cancer patients, along with the disproportionately poor outcomes, requires urgent attention. 18 The survival rate is a critical factor in determining the effectiveness of cancer prevention and treatment approaches. 19 However, factors affecting the survivability of patients with venous thromboembolism, especially malignancies with DVT, remain unclear. 20 – 22 To the best of our knowledge, this was the first study conducted to determine the factors affecting the survival time of cancer patients with DVT, specifically among gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancers. Understanding the impact of these factors is essential for establishing targeted preventive and treatment strategies for this specific patient population. Methods Study design This was an ambispective cohort study (combination of prospective and retrospective methods) conducted at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital (CMGH), Jakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected from January 2011 until August 2013. On the prospective method, we collected samples of cancer patients who had DVT at the Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology of CMGH. Retrospective data were extracted from the medical records of CMGH. All subjects were observed for 3 months. The included subjects were aged ≥ 18 years old; subjects with active cancers; subjects with DVT that were confirmed with Doppler ultrasound. Active cancer was defined as newly diagnosed cancer, up to 3 months before DVT diagnosis, or cancer that is being treated. 23 , 24 Subjects were excluded if they were not available for a 3-month of follow-up (for prospective), or if the medical record data was incomplete (for retrospective). Wells score has been utilized for over a decade and has predictive value in determining DVT risk in patients who are hospitalized. 22 , 25 We divided the Wells score into two categories: subjects with <3 points were considered to have a low probability of developing DVT, whereas subjects with ≥3 points were considered to have a high probability of developing DVT. Subjects who received tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, thalidomide, lenalidomide, bevacizumab, cisplatin, nitrogen mustard, or anthracycline were considered as high-risk systemic therapy for developing DVT. 1 , 26 – 41 Subjects who did not receive high-risk systemic therapy other than those mentioned above were considered low-risk for developing DVT ( Table 1 ). Statistical analysis Extracted data were analyzed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27 for Macintosh. Any graph or plot was created using GraphPad Prism 9 for Macintosh. The analysis was conducted with Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The significance was measured using log-rank/Mantel-Cox test. Measurement D-dimer levels were measured by immunometric flowthrough sandwich ELISA ( Nycocard Reader II ). According to the assay manufacturer, the D-dimer cut-off values for DVT was ≥ 300 ng/mL. 42 Ethical approval Ethical approval for this study was granted by The Ethics Committee of The Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia (ethical approval number: 495/H2.F1/ETIK/2013). This research was performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Prior to recruitment, written informed consent was obtained from the subjects. Results This cohort study included 223 cancer subjects with deep vein thrombosis (DVT). From the 223 recruited subjects, 76.2% were female. Approximately 48.4% of the subjects were diagnosed with gynecologic cancer, which included ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancers. Non-gynecologic cancers, including lymphoma, leukemia, hepatoma, and breast cancer were found in 51.6% of the subjects ( Table 1 ). Table 1. Subject characteristics.

Figure 2. The survival plot of subjects with gynecologic cancers vs. subjects without gynecologic cancers. Discussion Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in cancer patients is a life-threatening condition that may emerge regardless of whether they have a good prognosis. By understanding the factors that affect survivability, the effectiveness of prophylactic and therapeutic measures in preventing mortality can be more fully established. 23 Our cohort analysis revealed that the mortality of gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients doubled during the initial 3-month period following the DVT event, emphasizing the high short-term mortality resulting from a DVT event ( Table 1 ). 23 , 24 Our finding was supported by the worldwide Registro Informatizado de la Enfermedad TromboEmbólica (RIETE) registry study, which demonstrated that individuals with cancer with DVT are at a higher risk for short-term mortality. 24 The proposed theory suggests that the clinical hypercoagulable state may serve as a proxy for aggressive tumor biology, leading to a poor association with prognosis. 24 , 43 According to the latest available data, thrombosis is estimated to contribute to approximately 10% of cancer-related deaths in patients undergoing chemotherapy. Our study, which focused on gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients with DVT, has confirmed this finding, albeit to a slightly greater degree. 24 , 44 Table 1 demonstrates a greater number of subjects experiencing immobilization (> 3 days) compared to those who did not (76.2% vs. 36.8%). The survival rate was significantly lower in subjects who developed immobilization status when compared to subjects without immobilization status in the overall groups (p-value <0.001), gynecologic cancer group (p-value 0.007), and non-gynecologic cancer group (p-value 0.008) ( Figure 1A ). The lower survival time among immobilized subjects is a crucial finding that can be assigned to various factors. First, immobilized cancer patients frequently showed more severe clinical signs than non-immobilized patients. 45 Second, immobility increases the risk of DVT, due to stasis of blood flow in the venous system and hypercoagulation, which will lead to a higher mortality rate. 46 , 47 On the other hand, the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) recommends that cancer patients with DVT commence mobilization as an effective way of reducing the risk of mortality and minimizing complications. 48 , 49 Another systematic review by Segal et al. that identified 2 guidelines, 18 systematic reviews, and 29 randomized controlled trials (RCT) demonstrates that exercise is safe and beneficial in improving quality of life, including muscular and aerobic fitness for cancer patients. The current literature provides adequate support for urging exercise among cancer patients. 50 Thus, we strongly recommend physical exercise based on the clinical condition of cancer patients, as it could potentially serve an essential function in improving both survival and quality of life. Figure 1B shows that survival time was significantly lower in the advanced stages of cancer than in the early stages in the overall cancer groups (p-value <0.045). Our finding was consistent with a study that was conducted by Spencer, which found a negative correlation between cancer stage and survival. 51 Mark et al. found in their retrospective analysis that a diagnosis of DVT doubled the cancer-related death rate, which had similar effects on mortality as having advanced stage cancer. 52 Cancer staging is an anatomic representation of the disease’s progression based on tumor size, lymph node involvement, as well as clinical and imaging examinations. 53 , 54 The impact of metastases in DVT has been substantially highlighted in the medical literature. The process of disseminating metastatic cells could be the explanation for the increased risk of DVT reported in patients with distant or regional lymph node metastases. The presence of metastasis has been found to be significantly correlated with increased hypercoagulability due to the hemostatic system, which may play a significant role in the metastatic capability of malignancies. Substantial metastasis occurs when tumor cells reach the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Thereby, after the distant metastasis, tumor cells interact with the hemostatic system, which emphasizes that hypercoagulability already exists in patients with localized cancer spread. 55 Studies have shown that detecting cancer at an early stage can significantly improve the chances of survival. However, over 50% of cancer cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage. When diagnosed in later stages, the available treatment options may be limited, and the overall prognosis tends to be unfavorable. The timely identification of cancer or precancerous alterations enables prompt intervention with the purpose of preventing or minimizing cancer progression and mortality. 56 In this present study, pneumonia was the most prevalent infectious disease (29.6%) ( Table 2 ). In contrast with the study by Gussoni G, et al. that showed non-infectious chronic pulmonary disease contributed to the high prevalence of malignancy associated with DVT (9.8%). 24 This is due to the high prevalence of infectious diseases in Indonesia. The vast majority of infected patients have one source of infection (30.5%). This demonstrates that the severity of that illness has the potential to alter mortality, even if the patient is only exposed to a single source of infection. Figure 1C shows that the overall (p-value <0.001), gynecologic (p-value 0.021), and non-gynecologic (p-value 0.002) cancer groups had significantly shorter survival times for subjects who developed infection status compared to subjects without infection. Infection remains a leading killer in all types of cancer. The investigation of infection management in cancer patients is an important strategy for enhancing the patient’s survivability. The nature of certain chemotherapeutic agents is accompanied by their immunosuppressive effects, which can limit their application ranges. These side effects include neutropenia, inhibition of the neutrophils, bone marrow suppression, damage to the anatomical barriers, and irritation of the veins. 57 Those who undergo cytotoxic chemotherapy are at risk of developing severe neutropenia, which can lead to life-threatening infections and sepsis. 58 The findings indicate that further efforts are required to reduce the frequency of lethal infections. Thus, we strongly recommend several strategies to decrease the mortality of infections in cancer patients, including the use of prophylaxis or preemptive therapy with broad-spectrum antimicrobial agents targeted at the most common infecting pathogens. 57 Figure 1D demonstrates that the survival time for patients with non-gynecologic cancer who received cancer surgery is considerably longer than that of patients who do not undergo surgery (p-value 0.024). The present study aligns with prior cohort study of advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients from the National Cancer Database, which indicated patients who had surgery had significantly better overall survival (p<0.001). 59 Contrary to the findings of Gussoni G, et al. in the RIETE Study, surgical treatment for malignancy had no influence on mortality in the first three months of malignancy DVT. 24 These differences in outcomes may be explained due to the fact that the patients who received surgery tended to be diagnosed at an earlier stage, which enhanced their chances of survival. As the advanced stage of cancer progresses, the clinical condition of the patient deteriorates, rendering them ineligible for cancer surgery and/or systemic therapy for malignancy. In the execution of a surgical procedure, it is imperative to carefully evaluate the potential hazards and advantages. This critical assessment is crucial in ensuring the safety and well-being of the patient. The risk-benefit analysis is the key of clinical decision making, with the ultimate goal of producing the best possible patient outcomes. 60 In Figure 1E , there was no significant difference in survival time between subjects who received RT and without RT across all groups. Based on our findings, we identify that RT-treated cancer patients with DVT do not appear to have substantial alterations that lead to short-term mortality. Our study was in line with Bosco et al. that conducted a large study among 9000 Swedish male patients who had curative radiation for prostate cancer. They concluded that external beam radiation and brachytherapy were not shown to increase the risk of thromboembolic events. 61 , 62 Contradicting the results of a previous sub-analysis of prospective, multicentre, longitudinal Prospective Comparison of Methods for thromboembolic risk assessment with clinical Perceptions and AwareneSS in real life patients-Cancer Associated Thrombosis (COMPASS–CAT study), a significant association was found between RT and VTE (HR 2.47; 95% CI 1.47-4.12; p-value 0.011). 61 , 63 A small series by Guy et al. reported a sufficient association between brachytherapy and the development of VTE in patients with gynecologic malignancies. 63 , 64 These differences among studies might be explained by multiple suggested processes that raised the risk of thrombosis during and after radiation. Radiation has been shown to promote secondary venous hemostasis by increasing inflammatory molecule release, which in turn activates the endothelium and promotes a thrombotic environment. Ionizing radiation has also been shown to affect several anticoagulant molecules (protein C and thrombomodulin) and prothrombotic molecules (activated factor VIII, platelet, tissue factor, D-dimers, NF-kappa B, and von Willebrand activation), altering the balance towards a hypercoagulable state. 61 , 62 , 65 However, most of the chronic vascular processes leading to clinical outcomes are reported to occur several years after RT, and our follow-up period was 3 months. Thus, additional studies with longer time periods are warranted to fully comprehend the clinical significance of the prospective cellular toxicity related to radiotherapy. 61 , 62 As can be observed in Figure 1F , the survival time was significantly higher in subjects who received high-risk systemic therapy compared to those who received low-risk systemic therapy (p-value 0.048). According to recent research, the administration of tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, thalidomide, lenalidomide, bevacizumab, cisplatin, nitrogen mustard, or anthracycline has been linked to a higher incidence of DVT. 1 , 26 – 41 These agents have been reported to initiate vascular injury by inducing apoptosis. The administration of cisplatin leads to the release of prothrombotic particles, leading to the production of thrombin through tissue factor-independent pathways and a substantial increase in the activity of von Willebrand factor (vWF). However, other agent such as the vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (bevacizumab) do not initiate thrombosis directly. Instead, it ‘primes’ the endothelium by placing it in a depleted condition, thus rendering it more prone to injury. Furthermore, in the context of immunomodulatory agents (thalidomide and lenalidomide), platelet activation via PAR-1 and enhanced Gp IIb/IIIa exertion provide the “primed” condition. The identification of antineoplastic agents that are highly associated with thrombosis can enhance healthcare provider awareness and facilitate prompt diagnosis and treatment. 66 , 67 On the other hand, prior studies have extensively demonstrated the effectiveness of systemic therapy in improving overall survival rates and minimizing the potential of disease recurrence. Although generally well-tolerated, there have been reports of various adverse effects associated with the pharmacological activity of these agents. 67 Thus, high-risk systemic therapy for cancer patients should be considered after carefully assessing the risks and benefits of treatments. 68 To the best of our knowledge, no study to date has investigated the comparison of survival time for DVT in the cancer population, especially among gynecologic and non-gynecologic malignancies. Although the difference in survival time between the two groups was not statistically significant (p-value 0.674), the results indicated that patients with gynecologic cancer generally had a lower survival time compared to non-gynecologic cancer ( Figure 2 ). Cancer is a life-threatening disease that warrants serious attention, regardless of its type. 69 According to prior research, VTE is a significant cause of mortality in patients with gynecologic cancer. Studies have shown that the risk of DVT in women undergoing gynecologic surgery is estimated to be between 17-40%. 55 The relationship between gynecologic cancers and thrombotic events is believed to be linked to lymphadenectomy and venous congestion caused by tumors or enlarged lymph nodes. 70 Lymphadenectomy is a frequently utilized procedure in the evaluation of lymph node status and staging of gynecologic malignancies, as well as a therapeutic intervention for patients with gynecologic cancer. Complications, such as hemorrhage, hematoma, and lymphocele, are frequently observed in association with it. Lymphocele is a frequently observed postoperative complication that can result in the development of VTE due to venous compression. A literature review indicates that the incidence of VTE after lymphadenectomy ranges from 0.8% to 25%. 55 A large cohort study conducted by Chew et al. , revealed that the incidence of DVT in cancer patients is linked to a 3.7-fold rise in mortality risk. 71 The identification of DVT as a major risk factor has been established for decreased survival in cancer patients. The mortality rate of cancer patients with DVT could be associated with the existence of DVT and its complications, as well as the advanced stage of malignancies that are frequently correlated with DVT and have the potential to progress progressively. 24 The strength of this study lies in the fact that it is the first study to analyze factors affecting the survivability of malignant patients with DVT, especially in gynecologic and non-gynecologic malignancies. Second, this study utilizes a pragmatic approach by conducting research in authentic settings that reflect routine clinical practice. Third, this research was conducted at CMGH, which is the national referral center hospital in Indonesia, in order to accurately reflect the target population. However, this study has several limitations that should be considered to improve further research. First, this study did not evaluate the development of anticoagulant targets in DVT therapy in patients with malignancy. The examination parameters for each anticoagulant vary, making it challenging to perform this task. Second, this study did not differentiate between varying levels of clinical severity of infection. Hence, despite these limitations, the findings of our cohort study have significant clinical implications, indicating that prompt identification of these factors may enhance the survival rate of cancer patients with DVT. 72 Although cancer is a significant risk factor for DVT, the risk is not sufficiently substantial to warrant initiating prophylaxis. On the other hand, if any of these risk factors are present, the doctor should have a low threshold for considering prophylaxis. 73 Comprehensive consideration of the risks and benefits of anticoagulant usage is required before deciding to use thromboprophylaxis in cancer patients with DVT. 68 Nonetheless, the existing literature provides limited guidance for decision-making and implementation of management strategies. Further studies are warranted to evaluate the extent of the issue and determine the necessity of secondary prophylaxis. 24 , 73 Conclusion This cohort study identified that both gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients who experienced DVT developed a high short-term mortality. Our finding of immobility, infection, advanced cancer stages, systemic therapy, and cancer surgery as risk factors that affect the survival raises the need to give secondary prophylaxis in routine clinical practice. The possibility for increasing survival could be maximized through the alteration of these critical factors. Thus, further study is warranted to establish a comprehensive management guideline that will be crucial for optimizing prevention and treatment strategies.

Continue reading READ ALL This research’s main aim is to determine the factors affecting survival of gynecologic and non-gynecological cancer having DVT, but theoretically, most cancer patients with DVT have lower survival rate, regardless the diagnosis. Can you explain why did you need to analyze between gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer, especially in your introduction? I suggested that hematologic malignancies should be excluded from analysis, as patient with hematologic malignancies had different characteristics compared with patient with solid tumors. Looking in your current result and conclusion, there was no significant differences in survival between gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer having DVT. I think it is more suitable if this paper mainly discusses about factors affecting survival in cancer patients having DVT. Several concerns that needed to be clarified: Please mention your reason on choosing ambispective cohort study, as it can potentially lead into bias. Please provide the reason why did you not included central venous catheter, D-Dimer, and Well’s score in your analysis. Theoretically, is there any difference in DVT incidence between men and women? In non-gynecological group, you included both men and women, and if I assume that all of the patient having gynecological cancer is women, does that mean gender can be a confounding variable in this study? Please mention about infection and DVT in your introduction and method section, including how did you diagnose the infection status. Did the DVT diagnosis was made before or after receiving any therapy e.g. chemotherapy / radiotherapy? Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Yes Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Partly Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? Partly If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Yes Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Partly Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Partly Competing Interests: No competing interests were disclosed. Reviewer Expertise: thrombosis and hemostasis, hematology, medical oncology I confirm that I have read this submission and believe that I have an appropriate level of expertise to confirm that it is of an acceptable scientific standard, however I have significant reservations, as outlined above.

The results present challenges in interpretation due to the statistical analysis conducted on a small, incompletely defined, and highly heterogeneous population. The "Results" confirm available evidence and than they add a very long discussion, in my view this needs further refinement to enhance its usefulness, as there are several well-done reviews dealing with DVT, stage, infection etc. in cancer patients. The authors present an investigation dealing with well accepted risk factors of death in cancer patients. Thus it is strongly recommended to rephrase the title, including "confirmatory study". The patient population is very heterogenous: As cancer stage is a major determinator of prognosis it is recommended to add 2 additional columns in Table 1 giving the stage of the pts for each line. Several things need to be clarified: - Is this a mixture of in- and out-pts ? Are pts from an palliative care unit ("hospice") included ? - With regard to radiation, surgery and chemotherapy, does that mean these treatment modalities have been applied prior to DVT diagnosis or thereafter or both ? - What is meant with "immobilisation"? In clinical practice "immobilisation" is a very rare event! Thus, please give a definition of "immobilisation" such as for example "reduced mobility with bedrest time about > 70 % of the day". - The Wells score has limited applicability for prediction of outcome after DVT. In pts with DVT Wells score is expected to be high in most cancer pts (cancer is one parameter in this score) as reflected in table 1. Overall it is not a useful parameter in this setting, thus it is recommended to omit it. - "Mortality doubled" compared to ? (p10, last paragraph) I suggest the authors to reduce Introduction and Discussion (there are lots of reviews on VTE in cancer and additional risk factors beside cancer) and expand Limitations (no RCT, prospective & retrospective; patient heterogeneity, DVT treated yes or no, for three months?...) Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Partly Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Partly Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? No Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results?

Continue reading READ ALL This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing the short-term survival (3 months) of cancer patients with DVT, particularly among those with gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancers. Employing an ambispective cohort study design, a total of 223 cancer patients diagnosed with DVT via Doppler ultrasound were included in this study. The findings revealed that, across the entire cohort, survival time was notably reduced among subjects who experienced immobilization, were at advanced cancer stages, or developed infections. Within the gynecologic cancer subgroup, survival time was significantly lower in individuals who experienced immobilization and infection. Conversely, within the non-gynecologic cancer subgroup, survival time exhibited a significant decline in subjects who faced immobilization, infection, cancer-related surgeries, and high-risk systemic therapy for DVT. This study presents novel evidence for the local population, underscoring the significance of both preventing and managing DVT in cancer patients. There are certain concerns that the authors might need to take into consideration: The method section of abstract is not so clear. I’m sure it needs brief details of methods applied in the study. The content within the second and third paragraphs of the results section, which elucidates the classification of DVT risk based on the chemotherapy regimen and provides an explanation of the Wells score, would be better placed within the method section. This relocation would contribute to a comprehensive depiction of the operational definition of the variables. Proportion of radiotherapy utilization can be incorporated into Table 1, as this aspect has not yet been delineated within the existing presentation of the table.

There are certain concerns that the authors might need to take into consideration: 1. The method section of abstract is not so clear. I’m sure it needs brief details of methods applied in the study. Response: Thank you for your constructive comment. We have added more details on the method section of the abstract. Methods: An ambispective cohort study was conducted among gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients with DVT, from January 2011 until August 2013. All subjects were observed for three months. The presence of DVT was confirmed using Doppler ultrasound. The analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The statistical significance was determined using the log-rank/Mantel-Cox test. 2. The content within the second and third paragraphs of the results section, which elucidates the classification of DVT risk based on the chemotherapy regimen and provides an explanation of the Wells score, would be better placed within the method section. This relocation would contribute to a comprehensive depiction of the operational definition of the variables. Response: We have relocated the second and third paragraphs of the results section into the method section. Wells score has been utilized for over a decade and has predictive value in determining DVT risk in patients who are hospitalized. 22 , 42 We divided the Wells score into two categories: subjects with <3 points were considered to have a low probability of developing DVT, whereas subjects with ≥3 points were considered to have a high probability of developing DVT. Subjects who received tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, thalidomide, lenalidomide, bevacizumab, cisplatin, nitrogen mustard, or anthracycline were considered as high-risk systemic therapy for developing DVT. 1 , 26 – 41 Subjects who did not receive high-risk systemic therapy other than those mentioned above were considered low-risk for developing DVT. 3. Proportion of radiotherapy utilization can be incorporated into Table 1, as this aspect has not yet been delineated within the existing presentation of the table. Response: We have added the proportion of radiotherapy utilization into Table 1. 4. To enhance clarity, it would be better to add the "number at risk" and "number censored" below each individual point segment of the survival curve. Response: Thank you for your valuable advice. We have added the “number at risk” below each individual point segment of the survival curve. Thank you for your attention. We are eagerly awaiting your response.

This study presents novel evidence for the local population, underscoring the significance of both preventing and managing DVT in cancer patients. There are certain concerns that the authors might need to take into consideration: 1. The method section of abstract is not so clear. I’m sure it needs brief details of methods applied in the study. Response: Thank you for your constructive comment. We have added more details on the method section of the abstract. Methods: An ambispective cohort study was conducted among gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer patients with DVT, from January 2011 until August 2013. All subjects were observed for three months. The presence of DVT was confirmed using Doppler ultrasound. The analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The statistical significance was determined using the log-rank/Mantel-Cox test. 2. The content within the second and third paragraphs of the results section, which elucidates the classification of DVT risk based on the chemotherapy regimen and provides an explanation of the Wells score, would be better placed within the method section. This relocation would contribute to a comprehensive depiction of the operational definition of the variables. Response: We have relocated the second and third paragraphs of the results section into the method section. Wells score has been utilized for over a decade and has predictive value in determining DVT risk in patients who are hospitalized. 22 , 42 We divided the Wells score into two categories: subjects with <3 points were considered to have a low probability of developing DVT, whereas subjects with ≥3 points were considered to have a high probability of developing DVT. Subjects who received tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors, thalidomide, lenalidomide, bevacizumab, cisplatin, nitrogen mustard, or anthracycline were considered as high-risk systemic therapy for developing DVT. 1 , 26 – 41 Subjects who did not receive high-risk systemic therapy other than those mentioned above were considered low-risk for developing DVT. 3. Proportion of radiotherapy utilization can be incorporated into Table 1, as this aspect has not yet been delineated within the existing presentation of the table. Response: We have added the proportion of radiotherapy utilization into Table 1. 4. To enhance clarity, it would be better to add the "number at risk" and "number censored" below each individual point segment of the survival curve. Response: Thank you for your valuable advice. We have added the “number at risk” below each individual point segment of the survival curve. Thank you for your attention. We are eagerly awaiting your response. Response To The Reviewer: Dear Dr. Susanna Hutajulu, We would like to thank you for your time and consideration in handling our manuscript. Sincerely, Andhika Rachman, MD, PhD Medical staff, Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology, Department of Internal Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Indonesia - Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital This study aimed to analyze the factors influencing the short-term survival (3 months) of cancer patients with DVT, particularly among those with gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancers. Employing an ambispective cohort study design, a total of 223 cancer patients diagnosed with DVT via Doppler ultrasound were included in this study. The findings revealed that, across the entire cohort, survival time was notably reduced among subjects who experienced immobilization, were at advanced cancer stages, or developed infections. Within the gynecologic cancer subgroup, survival time was significantly lower in individuals who experienced immobilization and infection. Conversely, within the non-gynecologic cancer subgroup, survival time exhibited a significant decline in subjects who faced immobilization, infection, cancer-related surgeries, and high-risk systemic therapy for DVT.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions This research’s main aim is to determine the factors affecting survival of gynecologic and non-gynecological cancer having DVT, but theoretically, most cancer patients with DVT have lower survival rate, regardless the diagnosis. Can you explain why did you need to analyze between gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer, especially in your introduction? I suggested that hematologic malignancies should be excluded from analysis, as patient with hematologic malignancies had different characteristics compared with patient with solid tumors. Looking in your current result and conclusion, there was no significant differences in survival between gynecologic and non-gynecologic cancer having DVT. I think it is more suitable if this paper mainly discusses about factors affecting survival in cancer patients having DVT. Several concerns that needed to be clarified: Please mention your reason on choosing ambispective cohort study, as it can potentially lead into bias. Please provide the reason why did you not included central venous catheter, D-Dimer, and Well’s score in your analysis. Theoretically, is there any difference in DVT incidence between men and women? In non-gynecological group, you included both men and women, and if I assume that all of the patient having gynecological cancer is women, does that mean gender can be a confounding variable in this study? Please mention about infection and DVT in your introduction and method section, including how did you diagnose the infection status. Did the DVT diagnosis was made before or after receiving any therapy e.g. chemotherapy / radiotherapy? Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Yes Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Partly Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? Partly If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate? Yes Are all the source data underlying the results available to ensure full reproducibility? Partly Are the conclusions drawn adequately supported by the results? Partly Competing Interests No competing interests were disclosed.

Not approved Fundamental flaws in the paper seriously undermine the findings and conclusions The authors make a long introduction, the study protocol is not innovative. The results present challenges in interpretation due to the statistical analysis conducted on a small, incompletely defined, and highly heterogeneous population. The "Results" confirm available evidence and than they add a very long discussion, in my view this needs further refinement to enhance its usefulness, as there are several well-done reviews dealing with DVT, stage, infection etc. in cancer patients. The authors present an investigation dealing with well accepted risk factors of death in cancer patients. Thus it is strongly recommended to rephrase the title, including "confirmatory study". The patient population is very heterogenous: As cancer stage is a major determinator of prognosis it is recommended to add 2 additional columns in Table 1 giving the stage of the pts for each line. Several things need to be clarified: - Is this a mixture of in- and out-pts ? Are pts from an palliative care unit ("hospice") included ? - With regard to radiation, surgery and chemotherapy, does that mean these treatment modalities have been applied prior to DVT diagnosis or thereafter or both ? - What is meant with "immobilisation"? In clinical practice "immobilisation" is a very rare event! Thus, please give a definition of "immobilisation" such as for example "reduced mobility with bedrest time about > 70 % of the day". - The Wells score has limited applicability for prediction of outcome after DVT. In pts with DVT Wells score is expected to be high in most cancer pts (cancer is one parameter in this score) as reflected in table 1. Overall it is not a useful parameter in this setting, thus it is recommended to omit it. - "Mortality doubled" compared to ? (p10, last paragraph) I suggest the authors to reduce Introduction and Discussion (there are lots of reviews on VTE in cancer and additional risk factors beside cancer) and expand Limitations (no RCT, prospective & retrospective; patient heterogeneity, DVT treated yes or no, for three months?...) Is the work clearly and accurately presented and does it cite the current literature? Partly Is the study design appropriate and is the work technically sound? Partly Are sufficient details of methods and analysis provided to allow replication by others? No If applicable, is the statistical analysis and its interpretation appropriate?
