The Sedlis criteria define risk factors for recurrence warranting post-hysterectomy radiation for early-stage cervical cancer; however, these factors were defined for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) at an estimated recurrence risk of ≥30%. Our study evaluates and compares risk factors for recurrence for cervical SCC compared with adenocarcinoma (AC) and develops histology-specific nomograms to estimate risk of recurrence and guide adjuvant treatment. We performed an ancillary analysis of GOG 49, 92, and 141, and included stage I patients who were surgically managed and received no neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate independent risk factors for recurrence by histology and to generate prognostic histology-specific nomograms for 3-year recurrence risk. We identified 715 patients with SCC and 105 with AC; 20% with SCC and 17% with AC recurred. For SCC, lymphvascular space invasion (LVSI: HR 1.58, CI 1.12–2.22), tumor size (TS ≥4 cm: HR 2.67, CI 1.67–4.29), and depth of invasion (DOI; middle 1/3, HR 4.31, CI 1.81–10.26; deep 1/3, HR 7.05, CI 2.99–16.64) were associated with recurrence. For AC, only TS ≥4 cm, was associated with recurrence (HR 4.69, CI 1.25–17.63). For both histologies, there was an interaction effect between TS and LVSI. For those with SCC, DOI was most associated with recurrence (16% risk); for AC, TS conferred a 15% risk with negative LVSI versus a 25% risk with positive LVSI. Current treatment standards are based on the Sedlis criteria, specifically derived from data on SCC. However, risk factors for recurrence differ for squamous cell and adenocarcinoma of the cervix. Histology-specific nomograms accurately and linearly represent risk of recurrence for both SCC and AC tumors and may provide a more contemporary and tailored tool for clinicians to base adjuvant treatment recommendations to their patients with cervical cancer. •Adenocarcinoma is a distinct cervical cancer subtype and treatment should be based on data specific to this subtype.•Risk factors for recurrence differ for squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the cervix.•For adenocarcinoma of the cervix, tumor size is the risk factor associated with the highest risk of recurrence.•For squamous cell carcinoma, depth of invasion is the risk factor associated with the highest risk of recurrence.•Histology-specific nomograms accurately and linearly represent risk of recurrence for squamous cell and adenocarcinoma.
