5028 Background: Patients (pts) with high risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) or who fail low risk single agent chemotherapy (CT) require multi agent CT to be cured. The most common regimen is etoposide (E), methotrexate and actinomycin D (A) alternating weekly with cyclophophamide and vincristine (EMA/CO). Cisplatin (P) is a very active drug but its role is controversial and usually restricted to second line. We report results of a platinum based therapy: APE. Methods: We evaluated the efficacy and safety on 103 pts treated at Institut Gustave Roussy (IGR) (n=80) or other French centers (n=23) between 1983 and 2010 with APE for high risk GTN (defined by IGR criteria [Azab, Cancer, 1988] and/or FIGO score >6). Pts with brain metastasis were excluded. Results: Efficacy was evaluated on 59 pts treated for high risk GTN in first line, and on 39 pts in >2nd line including 13 pts after multi agent CT. We excluded pts with placental site trophoblastic tumors (n=2), or with FIGO score <7 and without IGR criteria (n=3). Complete remission (CR) rate was 95%. Seven pts (7 %) relapsed and a second CR was obtained for all with surgery and/or CT. Only one patient died due to GTN, after successive CRs obtained with 3 regimens. Five year overall survival (median follow-up 6.6 years) was 98%. Toxicity was evaluated on 95 pts. No toxic death occurred. Given good efficacy and to avoid acute hematotoxicity and long-term G>1 neuro and ototoxicity APE regimen was modified as detailed in the Table (below). Long-term neuro (5 pts, G1), oto (2 pts, G1 and 2 pts, G2) and renal toxicities (1 pt, G1 ) were recorded. No long-term G2 toxicities were observed with APE3. One pt developed an AML 4 after 4cy APE and 6 cy EMA/CO. 37 pts of 40 who wished to be pregnant succeeded and all of them had at least one live birth. Conclusions: With a 98% long-term overall survival rate, an excellent reproductive outcome, and no detectable long-term toxicity, APE-3 should be regarded as an alternative standard option to EMA/CO for high-risk GTN.

Gestational trophoblastic disease (GTD) develops from abnormal cellular proliferation of trophoblasts following fertilization. It includes benign trophoblastic disease (hydatidiform moles (HM) and the malignant trophoblastic diseases or gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). The frequency of the GTD in Tunisia is one per 918 deliveries. The aim of this study is to analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment and outcomes of GTD at Salah Azaiez Institute (ISA). Medical records of women diagnosed with GTD at ISA from January 1, 1981 to December 31, 2012 were retrospectively reviewed. FIGO (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics) score was determined retrospectively for patients treated before 2002 One hundred and nine patients with GTN were included. Patients presented with metastases at 43% of cases. The most common metastatic sites was lung (30%) and vagina (13%). 56 (51%) patients had low-risk and 21 (19%) cases had high-risk, the FIGO score was not assessed in 32 cases. After a median follow-up of 46 months, 21 patients were lost to follow-up, 12 patients died, 19 progressed and 8 relapsed. At 10 years, the OS rate was 85% and the PFS rate 79%. OS was significantly influenced by the presence of metastases at presentation (M0 100 % vs. Metastatic 62 %; p < 0.0001), FIGO stage (I-II 100% VS 61% and 65% for stage III and IV; p < 0.001), FIGO score (low-risk 99 % vs. high-risk 78 %; p < 0.001). GTN is a significant source of maternal morbidity with increased risk of mortality from complications if not detected early and treated promptly.

Abstract. Background: Multilevel peripheral arterial disease is frequently observed in patients with intermittent claudication or critical limb ischemia. This report evaluates the efficacy of one-stage hybrid revascularization in patients with multilevel arterial peripheral disease. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis of a prospective database included all consecutive patients treated by a hybrid approach for a multilevel arterial peripheral disease. The primary outcome was the patency rate at 6 months and 1 year. Secondary outcomes were early and midterm complication rate, limb salvage and mortality rate. Statistical analysis, including a Kaplan-Meier estimate and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were carried out with the primary, primary assisted and secondary patency, comparing the impact of various risk factors in pre- and post-operative treatments. Results: 64 patients were included in the study, with a mean follow-up time of 428 days (range: 4 − 1140). The technical success rate was 100 %. The primary, primary assisted and secondary patency rates at 1 year were 39 %, 66 % and 81 %, respectively. The limb-salvage rate was 94 %. The early mortality rate was 3.1 %. Early and midterm complication rates were 15.4 % and 6.4 %, respectively. The early mortality rate was 3.1 %. Conclusions: The hybrid approach is a major alternative in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease in multilevel disease and comorbid patients, with low complication and mortality rates and a high limb-salvage rate.
