简介：比较在主要debulking外科(PDS)和neoadjuvant化疗之间的幸存和perioperative病态的目的在与先进上皮的卵巢的癌症(EOC)对待病人由间隔debulking外科(NAC/IDS)列在后面。我们回顾地与阶段IIIC或IVEOC考察了67个病人的方法从2006年1月在北京大学癌症医院对待到2009年6月。在那里，37和30个病人分别地经历了PDS和NAC/标志。结果在全面幸存(OS)或没有前进的幸存(PFS)的差别都没在NAC/IDS组和PDS组之间被观察(OS：41.2对39.1个月，P=0.23；PFS：27.1对24.3个月，P=0.37)。最佳的debulking率在NAC/IDS组是60%，它在PDS组(32.4%)(P=0.024)比那显著地高。NAC/IDS组显著地有比PDS的肠的功能的估计的血损失和输送，更低的nasogastricintubation率，和更早的移动和恢复组织的更少的intraoperative(P<0.05)。结论NAC/IDS不比PDS侵略，并且关于最佳的cytoreduction率，intraoperative血损失，和手术后的恢复提供优点，没有显著地损害与在对待有阶段IIIC或IVEOC的病人的PDS相比的幸存。因此，NAC/IDS可以是为EOC病人的一种珍贵治疗选择。

简介：AbstractBackground:The neoadjuvant chemotherapy is increasingly used in advanced gastric cancer, but the effects on safety and survival are still controversial. The objective of this meta-analysis was to compare the overall survival and short-term surgical outcomes between neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery (NACS) and surgery alone (SA) for locally advanced gastric cancer.Methods:Databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar) were explored for relative studies from January 2000 to January 2021. The quality of randomized controlled trials and cohort studies was evaluated using the modified Jadad scoring system and the Newcastle-Ottawa scale, respectively. The Review Manager software (version 5.3) was used to perform this meta-analysis. The overall survival was evaluated as the primary outcome, while perioperative indicators and post-operative complications were evaluated as the secondary outcomes.Results:Twenty studies, including 1420 NACS cases and 1942 SA cases, were enrolled. The results showed that there were no significant differences in overall survival (P = 0.240), harvested lymph nodes (P = 0.200), total complications (P = 0.080), and 30-day post-operative mortality (P = 0.490) between the NACS and SA groups. However, the NACS group was associated with a longer operation time (P < 0.0001), a higher R0 resection rate (P = 0.003), less reoperation (P = 0.030), and less anastomotic leakage (P = 0.007) compared with SA group.Conclusions:Compared with SA, NACS was considered safe and feasible for improved R0 resection rate as well as decreased reoperation and anastomotic leakage. While unbenefited overall survival indicated a less important effect of NACS on long-term oncological outcomes.

简介：AbstractThe management of pancreatic cancer has dramatically changed since the first major randomized trial published in 2001 by the European Study Group for Pancreatic Cancer (ESPAC) stimulated the development of multimodality oncosurgical therapies. ESPAC-1 demonstrated a survival improvement from upfront surgery of only 8%, increasing to 21% 5-year survival for 5-fluorouracil/folinic acid but only 10.8% for chemoradiotherapy. ESPAC-4 has shown a 5-year survival rate of 30% for all patients without restriction of 30% using a combination of gemcitabine and capecitabine, rising to 40% in those with an R0 resection margin, or nearly 50% in those with N0 lymph node status. In selected patients with favorable prognostic features mFOLFIRINOX can produce a 50% 5-year survival rate but with added toxicity. While a positive resection margin is associated with an increased likelihood of local recurrence, this of itself is not the contributor to reduced survival, but rather reflects the increased probability of systemic disease. Thus, strategies aimed at local control, may reduce subsequent local progression, but will not improve overall survival. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is increasingly utilized in cases of borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic cancer, but there is still a lack of proof of concept studies. High-quality evidence from randomized controlled trials to identify the indications and benefits of neoadjuvant therapy in pancreatic cancer are required. The use of patient-derived tumor organoids may predict response to chemotherapy which could open a new opportunity in pancreatic cancer treatment, stratifying patients into treatment groups based on their response to these therapies in the laboratory.

简介：AbstractPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive cancer with poor survival. Local control through surgical resection paired with radiotherapy and chemotherapy comprise the primary tenets of treatment. Debate exists regarding the timing of treatment and ordering of systemic therapy and resection in the management of early stage disease. The goal of this study was to review the literature and describe the contemporary evidence basis for the role of neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) in the setting of upfront resectable (UP-R) PDAC. Five databases were searched in parallel to identify relevant original articles investigating neoadjuvant therapy where at least 1 study arm contained UP-R PDAC; studies with only borderline resectable or locally advanced disease were excluded. Due to the diversity in NAT regimens and study design between trials, qualitative analyses were performed to investigate patient selection, impact on perioperative and survival outcomes, safety, and cost effectiveness. Thirty-five studies met inclusion criteria, of which 24 unique trials are discussed here in detail. These studies included those trials using single agents as well as more recent trials comparing modern multiagent therapies, and several large database analyses. Overall the data suggest that NAT is safe, may confer survival benefit for appropriately selected patients, is cost effective, and is an appropriate approach for UP-R PDAC. Nevertheless, the risk for disease progression during upfront medical therapy, requires appropriate patient identification and close monitoring, and emphasizes the need for further discovery of more effective chemotherapeutics, useful biomarkers or molecular profiles, and additional prospective comparative studies.

简介：AbstractBackground:Pathological complete response (pCR) of axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) is frequently achieved in patients with clinically node-positive breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), and ALN status is an important prognostic factor for breast cancer patients. This study aims to develop a new predictive clinical model to assess the ALN pCR rate after NAC.Methods:This was a retrospective series of 467 patients who had biopsy-proven positive ALNs at diagnosis and underwent ALN dissection from 2007 to 2014 at the National Cancer Center/Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. We analyzed the clinicopathologic features of the patients and developed a nomogram to predict the probability of ALN pCR. A multivariable logistic regression stepwise model was used to construct a nomogram to predict ALN pCR in node-positive patients. The adjusted area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was calculated to quantify the ability to rank patients by risk. Internal validation was performed using the 50/50 hold-out validation method. The nomogram was externally validated with prospective cohorts of 167 patients from 2016 to 2018 at the Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and 114 patients from 2018 to 2020 at Beijing Tiantan Hospital.Results:In this retrospective study, 115 (24.6%) patients achieved ALN pCR after NAC. Multivariate analysis showed that clinical tumor stage (Odds ratio [OR]: 0.321, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.121-0.856; P = 0.023); primary tumor response (OR: 0.189; 95% CI: 0.123-0.292; P < 0.001), and estrogen receptor status (OR: 0.530, 95% CI: 0.304-0.925; P = 0.025) were independent predictors of ALN pCR. The nomogram was constructed based on the result of multivariate analysis. In the internal validation of performance of nomogram, the AUCs for the training and test sets were 0.719 and 0.753, respectively. The nomogram was validated in external cohorts with AUCs of 0.720, which demonstrated good discriminatory power in these data sets.Conclusion:We developed a nomogram to predict the likelihood of axillary pCR in node-positive breast cancer patients after NAC. The predictive model performed well in multicenter prospective external validation. This practical tool could provide information to surgeons regarding whether to perform additional ALN dissection after NAC.Trial registration:ChiCTR.org.cn, ChiCTR1800014968.

简介：AbstractImportance:131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (131I-mIBG) has a significant targeted antitumor effect for neuroblastoma. However, currently there is a paucity of data for the use of 131I-mIBG as a "front-line" therapeutic agent in those patients with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma as part of the conditioning regimen for myeloablative chemotherapy (MAC).Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of upfront consolidation treatment with 131I-mIBG plus MAC and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in high-risk neuroblastoma patients.Methods:A retrospective, single-center study was conducted from 2003-2019 on newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma patients without progressive disease (PD) after the completion of induction therapy. They received 131I-mIBG infusion and MAC followed by HSCT.Results:A total of 24 high-risk neuroblastoma patients were enrolled with a median age of 3.0 years at diagnosis. After receiving this sequential consolidation treatment, 3 of 13 patients who were in partial response (PR) before 131I-mIBG treatment achieved either complete response (CR) (n = 1) or very good partial response (VGPR) (n = 2) after HSCT. With a median follow-up duration of 13.0 months after 131I-mIBG therapy, the 5-year event-free survival and overall survival rates estimated were 29% and 38% for the entire cohort, and 53% and 67% for the patients who were in CR/VGPR at the time of 131I-mIBG treatment.Interpretation:Upfront consolidation treatment with 131I-mIBG plus MAC and HSCT is feasible and tolerable in high-risk neuroblastoma patients, however the survival benefit of this 131I-mIBG regimen is only observed in the patients who were in CR/VGPR at the time of 131I-mIBG treatment.

简介：AbstractBackground:After neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), non-pathological complete response of breast cancer patients can benefit from tailored adjuvant chemotherapy. However, it is difficult to select patients with poorer prognosis for additional adjuvant chemotherapy to maximize the benefits. Our study aimed to explore whether the subtypes of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in residual tumors (RT) is related to the prognosis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) after NAC.Methods:Data from patients with primary TNBC consecutively diagnosed at the Breast Disease Center of Peking University First Hospital from 2008 to 2014 were retrieved, and the cases with RT in the breast after NAC were enrolled. TILs subtypes in RT were observed by double-staining immunohistochemistry, and counted with the median TILs value per square millimeter as the cut-off to define high versus low TILs density in each subtype. The relationships between the TIL density of each subgroup and the clinicopathological characteristics of the RT after NAC patients were analyzed by Fisher exact test. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank statistics.Results:A total of 37 eligible patients were included in this study, and the median follow-up period was 50 months (range 17–106 months). There was no significant correlation between the infiltrate density of CD4+, CD8+, CD20+, and CD68+ lymphocytes and clinic-pathological characteristics. Significantly better prognosis was observed in patients with high CD4+-TILs (DFS: P = 0.005, OS: P = 0.021) and high CD8+-TILs (DFS: P = 0.018) and low CD20+-TILs (OS: P = 0.042). Further analysis showed that patients with CD4+/CD20+ ratio greater than 1 (DFS: P = 0.001, OS: P = 0.002) or CD8+/CD20+ ratio greater than 1 (DFS: P = 0.009, OS: P = 0.022) had a better prognosis.Conclusions:Subtypes of TILs in RT is a potential predictive biomarker of survival in TNBC patients after NAC.
