Abstract Although the survival rate of intraocular retinoblastoma (RB) is nearly 100%, the outcome of central nervous system (CNS) involvement or Trilateral retinoblastoma (TRb: very rare RB which associated with brain tumor) is dismal. We retrospectively reviewed our six cases of these rare tumors. Their ages at diagnosis are 0y3m-1y10m (median 1y3m) (Male 4, Female 2). Only one had RB family history. Their affected eyes were bilateral 2, unilateral 3 and no 1. Their CNS diseases were suprasellar tumor 3, pineal tumor 1 and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology positive 2. Two of the suprasellar tumor patients had spinal metastasis. Three of the six patients were TRb. One TRb patient was treated with chemotherapy and high-dose chemotherapy without radiotherapy. Although he suffered with secondary osteosarcoma seven years later, he got complete remission and alive 5 years more without any tumor recurrence. The second TRb patient was treated with chemotherapy and local radiotherapy but relapsed 20 months later. The third TRb patient was chemotherapy resistant. Two CSF positive patients had optic nerve invasion. One patient with chiasm invasion died 11 months later because of treatment resistance. The other patient with optic nerve invasion before optic canal had no CNS tumor nor CSF involvement at diagnosis. Chemotherapy before enucleation was given to avoid dissemination. However, CSF cytology became positive after enucleation and remained even with intensified chemotherapy. Finally, he got remission with radiotherapy and high-dose chemotherapy, and alive without disease for 3.8 years. The last patient had suprasellar genetically classified retinoblastoma tumor and cerebrospinal metastasis. This patient showed good chemotherapy response and is still under treatment. Even with &quotso called° fatal RB cases, some case could survive with intensified therapy. Data accumulation is necessary for better survival of these tumors.

Abstract Treatment strategy for trilateral retinoblastoma (TRb: very rare RB with brain tumor) or retinoblastoma with central nervous system (CNS) involvement is not established yet. We retrospectively reviewed our seven cases of these rare almost fatal tumors. Their ages at diagnosis are 0y3m-1y10m (median 1y3m) (Male 4, Female 3). Only one had RB family history. Their affected eyes were bilateral 3, unilateral 3 and no 1. Their CNS involvements were suprasellar tumor 4, pineal tumor 1 and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cytology positive 2. Three of the suprasellar tumor patients had spinal metastasis. Four of the seven patients were TRb and one were genetically classified suprasellar retinoblastoma. All of them were treated with chemotherapy and four received high-dose chemotherapy. Three brain tumors of four TRb almost disappeared with chemotherapy. Two of them also received radiotherapy but relapsed. Although one radiation-free long-term TRb survivor developed secondary osteosarcoma, he got remission again and live 5 more years. One CSF positive Rb patient with chiasm invasion died of disease 11 months later. The other patient had no chiasm invasion nor CSF involvement at diagnosis, but his CSF cytology turned to positive after his second cycle of chemotherapy. He got remission with radiotherapy and high-dose chemotherapy, and alive without disease for 4 years. 2-year RFS and 2-year OS of all patients were 40% and 60%. Although our TRb patients responded to chemotherapy, it was difficult to avoid radiotherapy except one. Data accumulation is necessary for better treatment of these cancer-predisposed patients.

10551 Background: To evaluate treatment and outcome of patients with uni- or bilateral retinoblastoma (RB) with radiologic optic nerve invasion (RONI) at diagnosis. Methods: Retrospective clinical, radiological and histological review of patients with uni- or bilateral RB with RONI at diagnosis treated in the Institut Curie. Results: Between 1997 and 2014, 936 patients with RB were treated in the Institut Curie. Eleven patients had detectable RONI confirmed by Computed Tomography and/or Magnetic Resonance Imaging. RB was unilateral in 10/11 patients, bilateral in 1. Median age at diagnosis was 29 months (range 12-96). The patient with the bilateral RB had a unilateral RONI. Nine patients had ON enhancement and 3 had meningeal sheath enhancement. Nine received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (CT) and 2 had a primary enucleation. Partial response to neoadjuvant CT was obtained for all the patients. Enucleation was performed in 10/11 patients, by anterior approach in 3 patients, by anterior and subfrontal approach in 7 patients. Three patients had positive ON margin and among them, 2 were primary enucleated. All enucleated patients received adjuvant treatment (conventional CT: 10, High Dose CT: 7 and radiotherapy: 5). Three patients died of meningeal progression (2 during treatment and 1 during the first year after treatment). The patient with the bilateral RB was lost to follow up just after a meningeal progression during treatment. Seven are still alive (median follow up: 8 years, range : 1.5-17.5). Conclusions: Neoadjuvant CT has an important place in the management of unilateral RB with RONI at diagnosis. Pretreatment accurate staging by orbital and brain MRI is mandatory, as well as preoperative reassessment. Surgery should be performed by experienced ophthalmologists and if necessary neurosurgical team in order to obtain the best conditions for a tumor-free resection margin in patients with RONI.

Significant Toxicity

2089 Background: In two reports by Soussain et al, promising efficacy was observed in recurrent primary CNS lymphoma with induction cytarabine/VP-16 (CYVE) followed by HDC-ASCT (busulfan, thiotepa and cyclophosphamide [BTC]), but significant toxicity, mainly from CYVE, has limited widespread use. We report our experience with HDC-ASCT with alternative induction regimens. Methods: Retrospective review of pts with recurrent/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with CNS involvement treated with HDC-ASCT (2000-present). Results: Seventeen pts met inclusion criteria: med age= 58 (41-65); 9 were women; med KPS prior to transplant= 90 (range 70-100). At initial presentation, 10 had primary CNS lymphoma (ocular: 1); 7 had systemic NHL without CNS involvement; 1 had both systemic and CNS disease. Pts had been heavily pre-treated. Among those with PCNSL, high dose MTX was used in all pts and WBRT in 4. Two pts had received a previous HDC-ASCT. Among systemic NHL pts, various regimens were used, mostly R-CHOP(4), but also R-EPOCH (1), CVP (1), ICE (1) and CODOX-M (1). At CNS recurrence, pts received various induction regimens prior to HD-ASCT: high-dose methotrexate (MTX)-based chemotherapy (N= 13), cytarabine-based regimens (N=2), and other (N= 2). All pts achieved a CR or near CR prior to HDC-ASCT. Harvesting was obtained with G-CSF alone in 9 pts; 8 required plerixafor. Two pts failed mobilization N=15 received HDC-ASCT. The HDC consisted of BTC (N=13); 1 received BEAM and 1 received reduced intensity fludarabine, melphalan and alemtuzumab. Eight pts experienced a grade III or IV toxicity – most commonly fatigue, febrile neutropenia, and infection. One previously transplanted pt died from sepsis. With a med follow-up of 11 months, post-transplant med-PFS has not been reached. The 12m PFS was 92% (95% CI 56-98). Because no patient has progressed, the OS was identical to PFS. Conclusions: HDC-ASCT was a highly effective salvage approach in this population of recurrent/refractory CNS lymphoma. To reduce the risk of harvesting failure at the time of recurrence, harvesting stem cells at the time of initial treatment could be considered in pts with high risk for relapse.

Abstract BACKGROUND ATRT is a rare primary CNS tumor occurring predominantly in children with the peak age of onset at less than 3 years old. Adult presentations are exceedingly rare, associated with poor prognosis and no standard therapies exist. METHODS Case presentation. RESULTS 61 y old woman presented with headaches, sinus pressure, and cognitive decline. She was found to have a pineal tumor causing obstructive hydrocephalus. The patient underwent gross total resection of the tumor with pathology reported as ATRT. Her CNS staging, including CSF, was negative. She subsequently received radiotherapy to the resection bed. There was no consensus on what should be the next step in her therapy given lack of data in adults. Ultimately, we adopted a pediatric regimen and treated the patient with a combination of high-dose chemotherapy with cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, and vincristine followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). This regimen called for up to 4 cycles of chemotherapy with ASCT and we had collected enough cells to complete 3 cycles. The patient completed 2 cycles of therapy with moderate toxicity. Her CNS imaging remained stable with no evidence of recurrence 14-months from the original diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS ATRT continues to be an exceedingly rare diagnosis in adults. No standard therapies exist and treatment decisions are challenging given lack of data and lack of prospective clinical trials. Pediatric regimens can frequently be adopted for adults although high-dose chemotherapy with ASCT can be challenging. Our case exemplifies the feasibility of treating ATRT in an adult in the most aggressive fashion.

Abstract Background Both primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) with CNS involvement carry a poor prognosis. While there has been interest in intensification of treatment with high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), the side effect profile and long-term efficacy of consolidative transplant are not yet clear. Our aim was to investigate the efficacy and safety of a conditioning regimen of thiotepa, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide (TBC) (Soussain C., et al, J. Clin. Oncol., 19:742-749, 2001) followed by ASCT in patients with PCNSL or NHL with CNS involvement. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed among consecutive patients undergoing consolidative ASCT with TBC conditioning for PCNSL or NHL with CNS involvement between July 2006 and December 2017. For patients with PCNSL, a uniform induction therapy was given that consisted of rituximab and high dose methotrexate for 2-4 cycles followed by rituximab / cytarabine / thiotepa for 1-2 cycles based on published data (Illerhaus et al, Blood 120, no. 21 (2012): 302). For patients with secondary CNS lymphoma or relapsed disease, a variety of chemotherapy regimens were used at the discretion of the treating physician. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined from the date of transplant to the date of relapse or any cause of death. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the date of transplant to death. Results Forty-eight patients with NHL who underwent ASCT with TBC conditioning were identified: 27 patients with PCNSL, 12 patients with secondary CNSL, and 9 patients with relapsed disease with CNS involvement. Twenty-nine patients (60%) were in their first complete response (CR1) at the time of transplant. The median time from diagnosis to transplant was 7.1 months (range 3.7- 144.4). The median follow-up time after transplant was 23.9 months (range 8.6 - 59.6 months). The median time to neutrophil recovery (absolute neutrophil count > 500/uL) and platelet recovery (>20,000 x 103/μL for > 2 consecutive days) were 9 days (range 7-12 days) and 7 days (range 1-40 days), respectively. Four patients were noted to have anemia (hemoglobin decrease >2 g/dL from baseline). Most patients (89.5%) experienced febrile neutropenia and 68.6% were found to have infection. Other common side effects included mucositis (89.5%, 35.4% with grade 3 or higher), electrolyte abnormalities (89.5%), dermatologic sequelae (31.3%), reversible neurotoxicity (18.8%), renal injury (16.7%), and hemorrhagic cystitis (8.3%). Four patients (8.3%) experienced treatment-related mortality, 3 of which had secondary CNSL. No evidence of pulmonary toxicity or veno-occlusive disease was noted. The 1-year PFS was 78% (95% CI 63.3%-88.0%), and 1-year OS was 80.5% (95% CI 66%-89.8%). When analyzed according to primary diagnosis, 1-year PFS was 82.6% for PCNSL, 70% for secondary CNSL, and 75% for relapsed disease with CNS involvement (p = 0.69). According to diagnosis, 1-year OS was 87% for PCNSL, 70% for secondary CNSL, and 75% for relapsed disease with CNS involvement (p = 0.47). Univariate analysis was performed to analyze gender, ethnicity, age > 60, Karnofsky score ≥ 80, diagnosis, cell of origin, and transplant in CR1 versus CR2 or partial response as independent predictors of PFS and OS. Only age (p = 0.001, 95% CI 1.9-42.6 for PFS; p = 0.030, 95% CI 0.99-23.42 for OS) and Karnofsky score ≥ 80 (p = 0.017, 95% CI 0.07-0.81 for PFS; p = 0.047, 95% CI 0.06-1.03 for OS) were found to be significant. Conclusion High dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant using TBC conditioning for PCNSL and secondary CNSL appears to have encouraging long term efficacy with manageable side effects. Future studies looking at longer follow-up periods and comparison with other conditioning regimens is warranted.
