Background:The concept of treat to target (T2T) in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) has been established recently and already shown its benefits [1]. But the long-term outcomes of the T2T have not been studied yet.Objectives:To study 5 years (yrs) follow-up of PsA patients (pts) treated according to T2T strategy at the early stage.Methods:35 (M/F–17/18) PsA pts fulfilling CASPAR criteria, who were treated according to T2T strategy at the early stage (PsA duration≤2 yrs) within 24 months (mos) were analyzed. At the time of evaluation mean age is 42.7±11.2 yrs, median (Me) PsA duration 72 [60;95] mos, psoriasis duration 120 [88;180] mos. All pts underwent standard clinical examinations of PsA before started T2T therapy and at follow-up. Within 24 mos of T2T strategy all pts were taking Methotrexate (MTX) monotherapy in increasing dose up to 25 mg/wk and 18 out of 35 (51%) pts received MTX in combination with iTNF. When T2T study was stopped all pts were treated according to standard care with NSAIDs, bDMARDs, MTX, tsDMARDs based on PsA activity and physician decision. The number of pts achieved minimal disease activity (MDA, 5 of 7) and remission by DAPSA (≤4)/low disease activity (LDA)≤14) at the 24 mos of T2T strategy and at 5 yrs follow-up were calculated. The results are presented in the form of mean values, median, upper and lower quartiles.Results:Me duration of follow-up is 68 [53.5;81.5] mos. At 24 mos Me DAPSA 3.48 [0.45;21.76], remission by DAPSA (REM-DAPSA) were seen in 20 out of 35 (57%) pts, LDA-DAPSA in 4 (12%) pts, moderate activity (MoA) by DAPSA in 6 (17%) pts and high disease activity by DAPSA (HDA-DAPSA) in 5 (14%) pts. MDA was noted in 21 out of 35 (60%) pts. At 5 yrs Me DAPSA 7.4 [2.22;13.87], REM-DAPSA was noted in 12 (34%) pts, LDA-DAPSA in 14 (40%), MoA-DAPSA in 5 (14%), HDA-DAPSA in 4 (12%) pts. MDA was observed in 17 of 35 pts (49%). Among 20 pts who had REM-DAPSA at 24 mos only 6 pts (30%) remained in remission at 5 yrs follow-up and 12 out of 21 pts (57.14%) remained in MDA status.Conclusion:In early PsA pts remission and MDA are achievable goal of T2T strategy. But most pts lost remission/MDA after this strategy was changed to a standard care, despite being in remission/MDA status before change of therapy. Further investigations of the long-term outcomes of T2T strategy in PsA, including radiographic outcomes are needed.References:[1]Coates LC, Moverley AR, McParland L, et al.

Abstract Although mycosis fungoides (MF) is typically an indolent disease, patients with advanced-stage disease (stages IIB-IVB), including Sézary syndrome (SS), often have a poor outcome. A 31-year, retrospective analysis of our cutaneous lymphoma database, of 297 patients with MF and SS, was undertaken to study long-term outcomes and identify clinical predictors of outcome in patients with advanced-stage disease (ASD, n = 92) and large cell transformation (LCT, n = 22). Two-thirds of patients with ASD presented with de novo ASD. The median overall survival (OS) for ASD was 5 years with a 10-year predicted OS of 32%. Age at initial diagnosis (P = .01), tumor stage (P = .01), and clinical stage (P = .001) were found to be significant predictors of outcome. Patients who presented with de novo ASD demonstrated better outcomes that were not statistically significant than those with a prior diagnosis of early-stage MF (P = .25). Transformation developed in 22 of the 297 MF/SS patients (7.4%), with a transformation rate of only 1.4% in patients with early-stage disease, compared with stage IIB (27%) and stage IV (56%-67%) disease. The median OS from diagnosis of LCT was 2 years. We confirm that the incidence of LCT is strongly dependent on tumor stage at diagnosis, and we demonstrate a much lower overall risk of LCT than previously reported.

ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer related death in the world. Biannual surveillance for the disease in patients with cirrhosis and in high risk carriers of hepatitis B virus allows early stage cancer detection and treatment with good long term outcomes. Liver ultrasonography and serum α fetoprotein are the most commonly used surveillance tests. If suspicious results are found on the surveillance test, multiphasic computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging should be undertaken to confirm the diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma. If radiologic tests show inconclusive results, liver biopsy or repeat imaging could be considered for confirmation of hepatocellular carcinoma. Management of the disease is complex. Patients should be evaluated by a multidisciplinary team, and the selection of treatment should consider factors such as tumor burden, severity of liver dysfunction, medical comorbidities, local expertise, and preference of patients. Early stage hepatocellular carcinoma is best managed by curative treatment, which includes resection, ablation, or transplantation. Patients with intermediate stage disease often receive locoregional treatment. Systemic treatment is reserved for patients with advanced disease. Several positive, phase III, randomized controlled trials have expanded the systemic treatment options for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with promising long term outcomes, especially trials using combination treatments, which could also have eventual implications for the treatment of earlier stage disease.
