Objective: The objective of this retrospective study is to develop a novel marker- ratio of serum CA 125 to peritoneal carcinomatous index(PCI) - to predict the response in women receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy for newly diagnosed advanced epithelial ovarian cancer at our centre. Methods: Medical records of women who were newly diagnosed with inoperable advanced ovarian cancer stages III and IV at our centre were selected. Only people with completely documented records in the years 2017 & 2018 were selected. Only patietns with serous histology were chosen. Pre chemotherapy serum CA125 value was noted. Radiological PCI was calculated by reviewing the CECT films & reports of the patients. Patients were compared with the ratio of CA125 to radiological PCI and clinical & pathological response to neo adjuvant chemotherapy. All patients received standard doses of three weekly Paclitaxel and Carboplatin based chemotherapy. Based on the ratio of CA125 to PCI patients were divided into 2 groups – ratio more than 100 and less than 100. Results: A total of 34 were patients were found to meet the eligible criteria. Response assessment was done after 3 to 4 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The overall response rate to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients in group 1 ( CA125/PCI ratio > 100) was significantly higher as compared to patients in group 2 (CA125/PCI ratio <100). Conclusion: In summary, CA 125 to PCI ratio is novel method to predict response to chemotherapy in advanced epithelial ovarian cancers. This value is a helpful measurement that allows the clinicians to measure the degree of chemosensitivity prior to cytoreductive surgery. This measures the inherent tumor biology and to aids in surgical decision making regarding the role and extent of cytoreduction as well as alternate systemic/local therapies.

Abstract Purpose Scalp cooling during chemotherapy infusion to mitigate alopecia for breast cancer patients is becoming widespread; however, studies regarding hair recovery after chemotherapy with scalp cooling are limited. We conducted a prospective study of hair recovery after chemotherapy with scalp cooling. Patients and methods One hundred and seventeen Japanese female breast cancer patients who completed planned (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy using the Paxman Scalp Cooling System for alopecia prevention were evaluated for alopecia prevention in our prospective study. We evaluated their hair recovery 1, 4, 7, 10, and 13 months after chemotherapy. Primary outcomes were grades of alopecia judged by two investigators (objective grades) and patients’ answers to the questionnaire regarding the use of a wig or hat (subjective grades). Results Of 117 patients, 75 completed scalp cooling during the planned chemotherapy cycles (Group A), but 42 discontinued it mostly after the first cycle (Group B). Objective and subjective grades were significantly better in Group A than in Group B throughout 1 year, and at 4 and 7 months after chemotherapy. When we restricted patients to those with objective Grade 3 (hair loss of > 50%) at 1 month, Group A exhibited slightly faster hair recovery based on the objective grades than Group B. There was less persistent alopecia in Group A than in Group B. Conclusions Scalp cooling during chemotherapy infusion for Japanese breast cancer patients increased the rate of hair recovery and had preventive effects against persistent alopecia.
