Tumor Debulking

Background. Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are a rare entity and are most commonly found in the gastroenteropancreatic tract. The clinical outcome depends on the potential resectability, grade, and stage. Here, we report a case of a tumor debulking in a metastatic NET of the pancreas. A 25-year-old woman with stable metastatic NET of the pancreas G2 T4N1M1 (hepatic, extrahepatic) already underwent several therapies. Case Presentation. A 25-year-old woman with stable metastatic NET of the pancreas G2 T4N1M1 (hepatic, extrahepatic) already underwent several pharmaceutical therapies. Due to the young age, the G2 characteristic, and the stable liver disease, the decision for debulking was made. Based on a 3D CT scan, an embolization was successfully performed directly prior to a pylorus-preserving pancreatic head resection, advanced interaortocaval lymph node dissection, and an atypical liver resection within segment VI. Histological workup revealed a stage pT3, G2, pN1 (29/34), pM1c (hepatic and extrahepatic), L1, V0, Pn0 with complete surgical resection of the primary tumor (180 mm). The excision of the liver segment V showed a completely resected metastasis. Conclusions. In this patient, extensive surgery of a pancreatic NET with the aim of a prolonged progression-free survival was performed. Close cooperation between different disciplines is absolutely mandatory. Modern imaging allowed a precise therapy plan to be worked out.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> The B-Raf proto-oncogene (BRAF<sup>V600E</sup>) gene mutation has been identified in a variety of malignancies, but no evidence of the efficacy of vemurafenib treatment in BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutant breast cancer (BC) has been reported. <b><i>Case Presentation:</i></b> We reported a 60-year-old woman with confirmed triple-negative BC with BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutation. Progression-free survival (PFS) for first-line chemotherapy was 7 months. The patient received vemurafenib and albumin-bound paclitaxel as second-line therapy, exhibiting regression of some pulmonary metastatic lesions with concomitant progression of other lesions, and achieved 4.4 months of PFS. Genetic testing of the progressed pulmonary lesion revealed the BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutation, and acquired new mutations and AR amplification. The patient ultimately died of multiple organ failure and achieved 12 months of overall survival. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> The BRAF<sup>V600E</sup> mutation may be a potential prognostic factor and therapeutic target for BC.

Radical surgery represents the only curative treatment for pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNEN). The aim of this study was to evaluate the postoperative onset of diabetes mellitus (DM) and/or pancreatic exocrine insufficiency (PEI) in surgically treated PanNEN. Consecutive PanNEN patients, without preoperative DM, who underwent partial pancreatic resection, were included. After a median follow-up of 72 months, overall 68/276 patients (24%) developed DM. Patients who developed DM were significantly older (p = 0.002) and they had a higher body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.0001) than those who did not; they were more frequently male (p = 0.017) and with nonfunctioning neoplasms (p = 0.019). BMI > 25 Kg/m2 was the only independent predictor of DM (p = 0.001). Overall, 118/276 patients (43%) developed a PEI, which was significantly more frequent after pancreaticoduodenectomy (p < 0.0001) and in patients with T3-T4 tumors (p = 0.001). Pancreaticoduodenectomy was the only independent predictor of PEI (p < 0.0001). Overall, 54 patients (20%) developed disease progression. Patients with and without DM had similar progression free survival (PFS), whereas patients without PEI had better five-year-PFS (p = 0.002), although this association was not confirmed in multivariate analysis. The risk of DM and PEI after surgery for PanNEN is relatively high but it does not affect PFS. BMI and pancreatic head resection are independent predictors of DM and PEI, respectively.

e15113 Background: The prognosis for patients with unresectable advanced gastric cancer treated with chemotherapy alone is extremely poor. We have evaluated the safety and efficacy of salvage gastrectomy following chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and S-1 (DCS) in patients with unresectable advanced gastric cancer. Methods: We evaluated 30 patients with unresectable advanced gastric adenocarcinoma whose lesions were down-staged by DCS chemotherapy and who underwent salvage gastrectomy with lymph node dissection from 2006 to 2012, when visible lesions were judged resectable. We retrospectively reviewed their medical records to identify factors that would influence overall survival. Results: Of the 30 patients, 17 had extra-regional lymph node metastases, 5 had liver metastases, 9 had peritoneal dissemination and 6 had pancreatic head invasion prior to DCS chemotherapy. Of the 30 patients, 23, 3, and 4 underwent R0, R1, and R2 resection, respectively. No in-hospital deaths or reoperations occurred. Pathological evaluation of primary tumors revealed grades 3, 2, 1b, 1a, and 0 tumor regression in 4, 9, 7, 7, and 2 patients, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 19 months.Two-year progression-free survival and overall survival rates were 45% and 65%, respectively. Of 17 patients with target tumors, 15 had partial responses, making the overall response rate 88%. The most common grade 3/4 hematologic toxicity was neutropenia (56%); all treatment-related toxicities were resolved, and no patient died of toxicity-related causes. Univariate analysis showed that R1/2 surgery (p<0.001), diffuse type histology (p=0.054), histological grade 0/1a/1b following chemotherapy (p<0.033), ypN3 (p<0.001) and yply2/3 (p=0.003), were significantly prognostic of reduced overall survival. A multivariate proportional hazard model found that ypN3 (p=0.003) was the sole independent prognostic factor. Conclusions: Salvage gastrectomy after DCS chemotherapy was safe and effective in patients with unresectable advanced gastric cancer. Lymph node metastasis after chemotherapy was significantly prognostic of poor prognosis, suggesting the need for further treatment.

564 Background: Ovary mets constitute 5-10% of CRC mets, are associated with poor prognosis, cause morbidity due to disproportionately rapid growth compared with other mets and are less responsive to chemotherapy. The optimal management of ovary mets and the molecular basis of their unique growth pattern is unknown. Methods: 505 MSKCC patients with CRC (ICD-9 153, 154) and ovary mets (ICD-9 198.6) were identified. Patients without available pathology, with appendix cancer or only serosal ovary mets were excluded. Regression models were used to identify predictors of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after surgery. Targeted exome sequencing of 341 cancer-associated genes was performed on 34 CRC ovary mets, including 20 matched pairs or trios of primary tumors, ovary mets and other mets from the same patient. Results: 184 patients with surgically resected CRC ovary mets were evaluated (median age 50 (17-86); OS 40 months (0.8-218) from CRC diagnosis, 23 months (0.2-199) from oophorectomy). 93/116 (80.2%) evaluable patients had concurrent growth of ovary mets on chemotherapy but shrinkage of other mets. In multivariate analysis, optimal surgical debulking was associated with improved PFS (HR = 0.11 (0.04-0.36)) and OS (HR = 0.42 (0.28-0.63)). Discordant ovary therapy response was associated with early progression (HR = 20.8 (1.59-274), and post-oophorectomy chemotherapy with reduced mortality (HR = 0.53 (0.33-0.84)). Ovary mets had increased KRAS (61.7% vs. 45.2%, p= 0.05) and SMAD4 (29.4% vs. 15.5%, p= 0.04) mutations compared to a 453 CRC cohort without ovary mets. In matched trios, mutations were largely concordant across tumor sites and no recurrent ovary met-specific mutations were found. However, 3/14 cases had identical mutations in the ovary mets and primary tumors, but additional private mutations in other mets. Conclusions: CRC ovary mets have frequent KRAS and SMAD4 mutations. Matched trios show clonal similarities between primary tumors and ovary mets, and divergence from other mets. Complete surgical resection of ovary mets is associated with substantially improved PFS and OS, similar to outcomes for localized CRC.

Pancreatic Origin

Well-to-moderately differentiated neuroendocrine tumors of gastroesophageal and pancreatic origin (GEP-NETs) with liver metastasis are a heterogeneous group of malignancies for which a range of therapeutic options have been employed. Surgical resection of hepatic metastases or hepatic artery embolization may be beneficial in patients with hepatic-predominant metastatic disease. Patients with “carcinoid” syndrome and syndromes associated with functional pancreatic NET (PNET) can be effectively treated with somatostatin analogs. On the other hand, the efficacy of systemic chemotherapy for these patients is limited. A placebo-controlled, double-blind, prospective, and randomized study showed that octreotide LAR improves progression-free survival in patients with advanced midgut functional “carcinoids.” In patients with advanced pancreatic NET, randomized, placebo-controlled studies have recently demonstrated that treatment with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor sunitinib or with mTOR inhibitor everolimus is associated with improved progression-free survival. Based on these studies, octreotide LAR, sunitinib, or everolimus are now considered as first-line therapeutic options in patients with advanced NET. Future studies will likely further define the role of these agents in patients with carcinoid liver metastasis and pancreatic NET liver metastasis.

The Impact

Pancreatic cancer (PaC) induces a prothrombotic and hypercoagulable state. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of tinzaparin in combination with chemotherapy. The PaCT (pancreatic cancer and tinzaparin) study was a retrospective observational study that collected data regarding progression free survival (PFS) in advanced or metastatic PaC patients who received thromboprophylaxis with tinzaparin during chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel (N) and gemcitabine (G). The primary end point was to compare, from already published data, the PFS of patients receiving thromboprophylaxis with tinzaparin with the PFS of patients receiving chemotherapy with N–G but no thromboprophylaxis. Secondary end points were efficacy and safety of anticoagulation. In total, 110 PaC patients, 93% with advanced or metastatic disease, treated with N–G and tinzaparin (10,291 ± 1176 Anti-Xa IU, OD, median duration 8.7, IQR: 5.6–11.9 months) were enrolled. Of these, 52% were males and; the median age was 68 (40–86 years). The tumor was located to in the pancreatic head at in 45% of the patients. The median PFS was 7.9 months (IQR: 5.0–11.8 months). Out of 14 similar studies (involving 2994 patients) identified via systematic search, it was determined that the weighted PFS of patients receiving N–G but no anticoagulation was 5.6 months. Therefore, patients receiving tinzaparin had 39.54% higher PFS than patients without thromboprophylaxis (p < 0.05). During the follow-up period of 18.3 ± 11.7 months, three (2.7%) thrombotic events were recorded while two clinically relevant non-major bleeding events occurred (1.9%). In conclusion, PFS in advanced PaC patients undergoing chemotherapy is positively impacted by anticoagulation. Thromboprophylaxis with tinzaparin in treatment dose is efficient and safe.

e22523 Background: Imatinib is the standard treatment of advanced Dermatofibrosarcoma (DFSP). However ideal treatment of advanced DFSP patients, who have progressive disease (PD) on imatinib, remains an unanswered question. Methods: We retrospectively analysed consecutive advanced DFSP patients who presented to AIIMS Sarcoma Medical Oncology clinic between January 2016 and January 2019. Results: There were eleven patients, with median age of 35 years, seven (63.6%) of which were males. Fibrosarcomatous transformation was present in six (54.5%) patients. Four (36.4%) had locally advanced disease, while seven (63.6%) had metastatic disease. Primary site was trunk in eight (63.7%) patients. Three (75%) of the four patients who received neoadjuvant imatinib, underwent complete surgical resection. Initial dose of imatinib was 400mg OD in eight (72.7%) patients, 600 mg OD in two (18.2%) and 800 mg OD in one (9.1%) patient. The best response to imatinib was Partial response (PR) in nine (81.8%) patients, stable disease (SD) in one (9.1%) and primary PD in one (9.1%) patient. Median progression free survival (PFS) was 16 months, after a median follow up of 14 months. Five (45.4%) patients had PD on imatinib. As mentioned in table, strategies used in these patients were pazopanib (n = 3), doxorubicin (n = 2), other chemotherapy (n = 2), dose escalation of imatinib (n = 2) and reintroduction of imatinib (n = 1). One patient had prolonged stable disease on pazopanib, while remaining had PD. Conclusions: Imatinib remains prominent first line therapy in advancved DFSP. Though pazopanib has shown some promise, the treatment outcomes in second line therapy and beyond have largely been dismal and need to be studied prospectively.[Table: see text]

AbstractSoft tissue myoepithelial carcinomas are a rare, malignant subgroup of myoepithelial tumours mostly arising in the extremities with equal predilection for women and men. The mainstay of management of localised disease is complete surgical resection. Despite optimal treatment, 40–45% of tumours recur. Data regarding the efficacy of systemic therapy for advanced and metastatic disease are lacking. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of all patients with soft tissue myoepithelial carcinoma treated at a single referral centre. The secondary aim was to establish the efficacy of systemic therapies in patients with advanced disease. A retrospective review of the prospectively maintained Royal Marsden Sarcoma Unit database was performed to identify soft tissue myoepithelial carcinoma patients treated between 1996 and 2019. Patient baseline characteristics and treatment history were recorded. Response to systemic therapy was evaluated using RECIST 1.1. We identified 24 patients treated at our institution between 1996 and 2019,12 males and 12 females. Median age at presentation was 49.6 years [interquartile range (IQR) 40.5–63.3 years]. Twenty-two out of 24 patients (91.7%) underwent primary surgical resection. Nine patients (37.5%) received systemic treatment. A partial response was documented in one patient treated with doxorubicin. The median progression-free survival for first-line chemotherapy was 9.3 months. Myoepithelial carcinoma frequently recurs after complete surgical resection. Conventional chemotherapy demonstrated some activity in myoepithelial carcinoma, however, more effective systemic therapies are required and enrolment in clinical trial should be encouraged.

Introduction: Although chemotherapy combining 5-fluorouracil (5FU)-dacarbazine (DTIC) or temozolomide (TEM)-capecitabine (CAP) is extensively used in patients with neuroendocrine tumors (NET), they were never compared. We compared their tolerance and efficacy in advanced NET. Methods: We evaluated the records of consecutive patients with pancreatic or small-intestine advanced NET who received 5FU-DTIC or TEM-CAP between July 2004 and December 2017 in 5 French centers. Tolerance, tumor response and progression-free survival (PFS) were compared. Factors associated with PFS were analyzed using Cox multivariate regression model. To reduce the confounding bias of the nonrandomized design, PFS was compared using propensity score analyses. Results: Ninety-four (5FU-DTIC) patients and 153 (TEM-CAP) patients were included. Pancreatic NET represented 82.3% of cases and 17.1, 61.8 and 10.9% of patients had G1, G2 or G3 NET respectively. Progression at baseline was reported in 92.7% of patients with available data. Grades 3–4 adverse events occurred in 24.7 and 8.5% of TEM-CAP and 5FU-DTIC patients respectively (p = 0.002). The overall response rate was 38.3 and 39.2% respectively (p = 0.596). Median PFS on raw analysis was similar to 5FU-DTIC and TEM-CAP (13.9 vs. 18.3 months, respectively p = 0.86). TEM-CAP was associated with an increased risk of progression on the raw multivariate analysis (hazard ratio [HR] 1.90, 95% CI [1.32–2.73], p = 0.001) and when adjusted on propensity score (HR 1.65, 95% CI [1.18–2.31], p = 0.004). Conclusion: PFS may be longer with 5FU-DTIC than TEM-CAP in patients with advanced NET. Although patients often prefer oral chemotherapy, 5FU-DTIC is a relevant alternative. A randomized comparison is needed to confirm these results.

Purpose Everolimus improved median progression-free survival by 6.4 months in patients with advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NET) compared with placebo in the RADIANT-3 study. Here, we present the final overall survival (OS) data and data on the impact of biomarkers on OS from the RADIANT-3 study. Methods Patients with advanced, progressive, low- or intermediate-grade pancreatic NET were randomly assigned to everolimus 10 mg/day (n = 207) or placebo (n = 203). Crossover from placebo to open-label everolimus was allowed on disease progression. Ongoing patients were unblinded after final progression-free survival analysis and could transition to open-label everolimus at the investigator’s discretion (extension phase). OS analysis was performed using a stratified log-rank test in the intent-to-treat population. The baseline levels of chromogranin A, neuron-specific enolase, and multiple soluble angiogenic biomarkers were determined and their impact on OS was explored. Results Of 410 patients who were enrolled between July 2007 and March 2014, 225 received open-label everolimus, including 172 patients (85%) randomly assigned initially to the placebo arm. Median OS was 44.0 months (95% CI, 35.6 to 51.8 months) for those randomly assigned to everolimus and 37.7 months (95% CI, 29.1 to 45.8 months) for those randomly assigned to placebo (hazard ratio, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.73 to 1.20; P = .30). Elevated baseline chromogranin A, neuron-specific enolase, placental growth factor, and soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 levels were poor prognostic factors for OS. The most common adverse events included stomatitis, rash, and diarrhea. Conclusion Everolimus was associated with a median OS of 44 months in patients with advanced, progressive pancreatic NET, the longest OS reported in a phase III study for this population. Everolimus was associated with a survival benefit of 6.3 months, although this finding was not statistically significant. Crossover of patients likely confounded the OS results.
