e12590 Background: Adjuvant high dose chemotherapy (HDC) with Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AuSCT) as part treatment of high risk locally advanced breast cancer has remained controversial. Multiple trials reported disease free survival (DFS) without Overall survival (OS) resulting in its abandonment in early 2000s. However, post hoc analysis of these trials consistently reported DFS and OS benefit in young and triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) subgroups. This has not been re-evaluated till date. Recent European registry reports coupled with improved transplant related mortality (TRM) and still poor out-come of standard of care in TNBC subgroup has generated renewed interest. We report long term out-come of locally advanced high risk TNBC treated with HDC and AuSCT treated in Karmanos Cancer Institute from 1995 to 2001 Methods: Majority of the patients were treated with Adriamycin and Taxane based induction chemotherapy. Patients without evidence of metastatic disease proceeded to HDC and AuSCT using Carmustine 600mg/sqm Cyclophosphamide 5.6gm/sqm and Cisplatin 165mg/sqm (STAMP 1 regimen). This is followed with loco- regional radiation per protocol. Results: 72 hormone negative patients with Lymph Node(LN) > 4 or inflammatory breast cancers were selected from 576 treated for advanced or metastatic breast cancer. 33 patients were TNB with HER2 status of 39 patients unknown. Median time from diagnosis to stem cell transplantation was 6 months. Median age at diagnosis was 47yrs. Mean LN involvement was 9 with 90% having (4-20) LN positivity. With median follow up of 16 years,10yrs DFS and OS were both 62.5%. Median follow up for DFS and OS was not reached.TRM was 9% mostly from pulmonary toxicity. Conclusions: This study of locally advanced high risk TNBC treated with adjuvant HDC and AuSCT have high 10yr OS of 62.5% compared to current standard of care. With the current improvement in TRM, reevaluation of this strategy through clinical trials in this subgroup whose outcome remain poor is reasonable.

10054 Background: Current treatment strategies including high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplantation rescue (HDC-SCT) have improved 5-year event-free survival for high-risk neuroblastoma (HRNB) patients, but with an increased risk of late treatment-related toxicities. Methods: Between 1980 and 2012, 439 children were treated for HRNB with HDC-SCT in Gustave Roussy (GR), among which 145 were alive and disease-free at 5-year post-SCT. Long-term health data have been collected for those 145 patients, prospectively within the long-term follow-up clinic in GR or retrospectively from pediatric consultations. Results: With a median follow-up post-SCT of 15 years (range 5-34), we observed 6 late relapses, 11 second cancers (including 3 papillary thyroid carcinomas; median delay = 20 years post-SCT [18-22]) and 9 deaths. Event-free and overall survival at 20-year post-SCT were 82% (95%CI = 70–90) and 89% (95%CI = 78–95), respectively. A second health event was observed in 135 patients (median = 3/patient), including 103 patients with at least 1 severe event (median = 1/patient). Cumulative incidence at 15-year post-SCT for second cancers is 4%, cardiac diseases 8%, thyroid 11%, renal 7%, hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia 14%, dental mal-development 70%, and severe hearing loss 20%. Height-for-age z-score was ≤-2 for 30 patients (21%) and ≤-3 for 12 patients (8%). After Busulfan-Melphalan conditioning regimen, 40/43 females and 33/35 males had a gonadal insufficiency. Conclusions: Long-term consequences of HRNB treatment including HDC are frequent and disabling, mainly due to hearing loss and gonadal insufficiency.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS), prognostic factors, and treatment-related mortality of women with stage IIIB inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) treated with combined modality therapy (CMT) and high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with autologous stem-cell transplantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between 1989 and 1997, 47 consecutive patients with stage IIIB IBC were treated with CMT and HDCT and were the subject of this retrospective analysis. Chemotherapy was administered to all patients before and/or after definitive surgery. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy was administered to 33 and 34 patients, respectively, and 20 patients received both. All patients received HDCT with autologous stem-cell transplantation, and 41 patients received locoregional radiation therapy. Tamoxifen was prescribed to patients with estrogen receptor (ER)–positive cancer. RESULTS: The mean duration of follow-up from diagnosis was 30 months (range, 6 to 91 months) and from HDCT was 22 months (range, 0.5 to 82 months). At 30 months, the Kaplan-Meier estimates of DFS and OS from diagnosis were 57.7% and 59.1%, respectively. At 4 years, the Kaplan-Meier estimates of DFS and OS from diagnosis were 51.3% and 51.7%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis, the only factors associated with better survival were favorable response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P = .04) and receipt of tamoxifen (P = .06); however, the benefit of tamoxifen was only demonstrated in patients with ER-positive breast cancer. At last follow-up, 28 patients (59.6%) were alive and disease-free. Seventeen patients (36.2%) developed recurrent breast cancer. Seventeen patients died: 15 from disease recurrence and two (4.2%) from treatment-related mortality due to HDCT. CONCLUSION: In this analysis, the early results of treatment with CMT and HDCT compare favorably with other series of patients with stage IIIB IBC treated with CMT alone. These outcomes must be confirmed with longer follow-up and controlled studies.

10546 Background: High-dose chemotherapy (HDC) is widely used in consolidation treatment of Ewing sarcoma patients with primary disseminated or recurrent disease. Standard busulfan-based regimens are not compatible with radiotherapy to central axis sites. Treosulfan is a newly-developed bifunctional alkylating agent that has been shown to be safe in current trials of the German Society for Pediatric Hematology and Oncology (GPOH) even in heavily pre-treated patients including axial radiation. Methods: Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) for 21 patients with primary disseminated disease (PDD) and survival after relapse for 11 relapse patients recruited from the EURO-E.W.I.N.G.99 trial 1998–2007 were analyzed. PDD-patients had received VIDE induction prior to treosulfan-based HDC (treosulfan: 36g/m2; melphalan: 140mg/m2) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation. Median follow up was 1.72 yrs. Relapse patients had received appropriate second line chemotherapy regimens prior to treosulfan-based HDC. Median follow up after relapse was 2.26 yrs. Results: Seventeen of 21 (81%) PDD-patients had a central axis site of the primary tumor, 8 patients (38%) presented with a pelvic tumor. Metastatic sites were: bone (76%), bone marrow (22%), CNS (10%), liver (15%), lymphnode (29%), other (16%), and additionally lung metastases in 57%. 1y-EFS was 0.70 (SE=.10), 2y-EFS was 0.27 (SE=0.10), and 3y-EFS was 0.16 (SE=.09). 1y-OS was 0.84 (SE=.08), 2y-OS was 0.46 (SE=.13), and 3y-OS was 0.32 (SE=.12). In the cohort of 11 relapse patients two patients (18%) had a local relapse, 3 (27%) a combined relapse, and 6 (55%) a systemic relapse. Six of 11 (55%) relapse patients had a late relapse >2 yrs from diagnosis. Survival after relapse at 3yrs was 0.70 (SE=.15). Conclusions: Treosulfan-based HDC is an alternative approach in high-risk Ewing tumor patients especially after relapse to consolidate a second remission. Further investigation and comparison to other standard HDC regimens is needed. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e13094 Background: The role of High Dose Chemotherapy (HDC) with Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) in treatment of high risk locally advanced breast cancer remains unclear. This modality stopped being used for breast cancer treatment when trials in early 2000s reported Disease Free Survival (DFS) benefit but no Overall survival (OS) benefit. However, subgroup analyses of these studies reported OS benefit in young and Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). We report very long-term outcomes of high risk locally advanced TNBC treated with HDC-ASCT at our institution between 1995 and 2001. Methods: We reviewed our BMT database for women with stage IIB or III TNBC treated with HDC-ASCT. We excluded women with hormone positive, Her2/Neu positive/Unknown and metastatic disease prior to transplant per updated AJCC 7th edition. The majority of patients underwent surgery followed by adjuvant Anthracycline and Taxane based induction chemotherapy followed by HDC-ASCT for consolidation. The HDC regimen consisted of Carmustine 600 mg/m2, Cyclophosphamide 5.6gm/ m2 and Cisplatin 165mg/ m2 (STAMP 1 regimen). Four patients received induction regimen as neoadjuvant and HDC-ASCT as adjuvant treatment per the same protocol. All patients received loco-regional radiation after ASCT. Results: 29 patients had locally advanced TNBC treated with HDC-ASCT. Median age at diagnosis was 43 years (IQR 40-51). 28 had at least 4 positive lymph nodes. Median time from diagnosis to ASCT was 5 months. Median overall survival was 17 years (95% CI, 3-19 years), and median DFS was 14 years (95% CI, 1-19). There was no treatment related mortality (TRM) at 30- and 100-days post ASCT. 12 patients (41%) were alive at median of 16 years (95% CI, 12-19) post ASCT. Conclusions: This single institution study of locally advanced high risk TNBC patients who received HDC-ASCT as part of treatment demonstrates a high long term OS exceeded historical controls. This supports a potential role for HDC-ASCT in this cohort of high risk TNBC. Considering the low TRM associated with this approach, prospective evaluation of this strategy is warranted.
