Background: Globally, prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy in males and fifth leading cancer-related cause of death. To build a reliable predictive system for screening performance, the study looking into the risk factors of BM in prostate cancer patients is warranted. Aim: Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (SEER) to assess the incidence, and risk factors of morbidity and prognosis for bone metastases in initial metastatic prostate cancer. Methods: A total of 249,331 prostate cancer patients who were diagnosed between 2010 and 2014 in SEER database were obtained to investigate the risk factors for developing bone metastasis, and 9925 of them who registered before 2013 were retrieved (with at least 1 year follow-up) to explore the prognostic factors for bone metastasis. Multivariate logistic and Cox regression were used to identify risk factors and prognostic factors for bone metastases, respectively. Results: Totally, 12,794 patients (5.1%) were diagnosed with bone metastases at the initial diagnosis. Older age, unmarried status, higher tumor stage, lymph node metastasis, metastases at lung brain and liver were the homogeneous risk factors for the morbidity and prognosis of bone metastasis in prostate cancer. Race and histologic differentiation grade were the heterogeneities associated factors. Black race was positively associated with bone metastasis morbidity; however, it has no significant effect on the prognosis. Poor differentiated grade may be the risk factors for developing bone metastasis; however, grade II was negatively associated with prognosis of bone metastasis. Conclusion: The survival of prostate cancer was poor with the bone metastasis approximate 5%. The prostate cancer has homogeneous and heterogeneities risk factors for incidence and prognosis of bone metastasis, which may provide potential guideline for the screening and preventive treatment of the bone metastasis of prostate cancer.

e16092 Background: The potency of zoledronic acid for hormone-naïve prostate cancer is unclear. We conducted a phase II study to investigate the benefit of administering zoledronic acid concomitant with androgen-deprivation therapy in treatment-naïve prostate cancer patients with bone metastases, in which the primary endpoint was skeleton-related event (SRE)-free survival at 24 months after treatment. Methods: Treatment-naïve male patients with histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the prostate and radiologic evidence of bone metastasis were eligible. Treatment consisted of bicalutamide 80 mg administered orally on Day 1 and every day, goserelin acetate 10.8 mg administered subcutaneously on Day 8 and every 12 weeks, and zoledronic acid 4 mg administered intravenously on Day 8 and every four weeks. Results: Between July 2008 and April 2010, a total of 53 patients were enrolled and 52 evaluable. Median age was 72 years (range, 55 - 86). Median primary PSA was 249.4 ng/ml (range, 2.19 –19201). Median follow-up period was 33.3 months. The SRE-free survival rate at 24 months after treatment was 82.7 %. Median time to PSA progression was 25.9 months (95% confidential interval, 17.97-24.43). The score of the extent of bone diseases was stable or decreased in 73 % of the patients at 24 months after treatment. The grade-3 osteonecrosis of the jaw was reported in three patients (5.8 %). Conclusions: Our results suggest the potency of the early introduction of zoledronic acid for prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. Future studies are certainly required to ascertain the most appropriate timing of the commencement of zoledronic acid for patients with bone-metastatic prostate cancer.

Abstract Background: Esophageal cancer (EC) is a common worldwide disease with a higher mortality rate. Studies on EC patients with bone metastasis (BM) are rare. Our study focused on the clinicopathological features of EC patients with BM using the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database to further explore the risk factors and survival for BM.Methods: According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, EC patients with BM were extracted from the SEER database from 2010 to 2016. Univariable analysis and multivariable logistic regression were used to study the risk factors for BM. Univariable analysis and multivariable Cox regression were performed to reveal the survival and prognostic factors for BM. The competitive risk model was made to compare the association with BM among causes of death. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to reduce the bias.Results: A total of 5314 patients were included in this study. Patients with BM had a worse prognosis before and after PSM. Male, middle esophagus, with brain metastasis, without lung metastasis, without liver metastasis were major independent risk factors of BM. Poorly differentiated and undifferentiated, with liver metastasis, with lung metastasis and without chemotherapy were major independent prognostic factors of BM.Conclusions: Compared to patients with other metastatic sites such as liver, brain and lung, patients with BM had a worse prognosis. Our findings provide recommendations about clinical guidelines including examination and treatment for EC patients with BM.

This study was to analyze the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of prostate cancer patients with bone metastasis and the difference in the rehabilitation effect of patients with different bone metastases. The MRI, diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), magnetic resonance elastic imaging (MRE), and MRI + DWI + MRE imaging were performed on 200 prostate cancer patients in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University hospital. The prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), and prostate volume in patients with bone metastases were analyzed. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the four detection methods of bone metastases in prostate cancer were detected. In addition, the changes of the bone metabolism index β-special collagen sequence (β-CTX), type I procollagen amino terminal propeptide (PINP), and osteocalcin (BGP) of the patients were analyzed and compared before and after the treatment. The results showed that the levels of PSMA4 (17.35 ± 51.64 ng/mL) and PSA (15.86 ± 6.33 ng/mL) in nonbone metastatic prostate cancer patients were much lower than those of osteogenic bone metastases (668.95 ± 47.13 ng/mL and 202.15 ± 31.53 ng/mL), mixed bone metastases (637.63 ± 41.35 ng/mL and 186.45 ± 24.86 ng/mL) prostate patients. The sensitivity (96.25%), specificity (89.85%), and accuracy (98.53%) of MRI + DWI + MRE in the prostate cancer bone metastasis were obviously higher than those of MRI (86.46%, 78.31%, and 90.31%), DWI (88.11%, 82.53%, and 91.43%), and MRE (83.36%, 76.94%, and 89.76%). The levels of β-CTX (0.41 ± 0.07 ng/mL), PINP (39.04 ± 6.38 ng/mL), and BGP (17.56 ± 4.22 ng/mL) after treatment in patients with nonbone metastasis prostate cancer were greatly lower than those of osteogenic bone metastases (0.66 ± 0.08 ng/mL, 51.45 ± 7.45 ng/mL, and 33.65 ± 6.14 ng/mL) and patients with mixed bone metastases (0.75 ± 0.12 ng/mL, 53.66 ± 9.22 ng/mL, and 31.24 ± 5.73 ng/mL), showing statistically obvious differences ( P < 0.05 ). In short, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of MRI + DWI + MRE in detection of prostate cancer bone metastasis were better than those of a single examination method, showing significant impacts on the rehabilitation of patients with prostate cancer bone metastasis.

Abstract Background Tumour subtype has a significant effect on bone metastasis in breast cancer, but population-based estimates of the prognosis of patients with bone metastases at breast cancer diagnosis are lacking. The aim of this study was to analyse the influence of tumour subtype and other factors on the prognosis and survival of patients with bone metastases of breast cancer. Methods Using the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program data from 2012 to 2016, a retrospective cohort study was conducted to investigate stage IV breast cancer patients with bone metastases. Stage IV patient characteristics according to subtype were compared using chi-square tests. Overall survival (OS) and prognostic factors were compared using the Kaplan-Meier method and the Cox proportional hazards model, respectively. Results A total of 3384 stage IV patients were included in this study; 63.42% were HR+/HER2-, 19.86% were HR+/HER2+, 9.34% were HR−/HER2-, and 7.39% were HR−/HER2+. The median OS for the whole population was 38 months, and 33.9% of the patients were alive at 5 years. The median OS and five-year survival rate were significantly different among stage IV breast cancer patients with different molecular subtypes (p < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that age of 55–59 (HR = 1.270), black race (HR = 1.317), grade III or IV (HR = 1.960), HR−/HER2- (HR = 2.808), lung metastases (HR = 1.378), liver metastases (HR = 2.085), and brain metastases (HR = 1.903) were independent risk factors for prognosis; married status (HR = 0.819), HR+/HER2+ (HR = 0.631), HR−/HER2+ (HR = 0.716), insurance (HR = 0.587) and surgery (HR = 0.504) were independent protection factors of prognosis. There was an interaction between the HR+/HER2+ subtype and other metastases (except bone metastases, HR = 0.694, 95% CI: 0.485–0.992), but the interaction between race and subtype did not reach significance for prognosis. Conclusions There were substantial differences in OS according to tumour subtype. In addition to tumour subtype, other independent predictors of OS were age at diagnosis, race, marital status, insurance, grade, surgery and visceral metastases. There was an interaction between the HR+/HER2+ subtype and other metastases (except bone metastases) for prognosis. Tumour subtype, as a significant prognostic factor, warrants further investigation.

Bone metastasis remains a major cause of death in cancer patients, and current therapies for bone metastatic disease are mainly palliative. Bone metastases arise after cancer cells have colonized the bone and co-opted the normal bone remodeling process. In addition to bone-targeted therapies (e.g., bisphosphonate and denosumab), hormone therapy, chemotherapy, external beam radiation therapy, and surgical intervention, attempts have been made to use systemic radiotherapy as a means of delivering cytocidal radiation to every bone metastatic lesion. Initially, several bone-seeking beta-minus-particle-emitting radiopharmaceuticals were incorporated into the treatment for bone metastases, but they failed to extend the overall survival in patients. However, recent clinical trials indicate that radium-223 dichloride (223RaCl2), an alpha-particle-emitting radiopharmaceutical, improves the overall survival of prostate cancer patients with bone metastases. This success has renewed interest in targeted alpha-particle therapy development for visceral and bone metastasis. This review will discuss (i) the biology of bone metastasis, especially focusing on the vicious cycle of bone metastasis, (ii) how bone remodeling has been exploited to administer systemic radiotherapies, and (iii) targeted radiotherapy development and progress in the development of targeted alpha-particle therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer bone metastasis.

e17520 Background: To determine if there is association between the clinical-pathological characteristics and the development of bone metastases in patients with prostate cancer treated in Oncosalud during the period 2016-2018. Methods: An observational, analytical, cross-sectional and retrospective study was conducted in 386 men diagnosed with prostate cancer in a Private Clinic in Peru. We presented descriptive and analytic analysis to identify variables associated with bone metastases; in addition, odds ratios were estimated. Results: In reference to the PSA groups, those patients with PSA values higher than 20 ng / ml presented a risk 9.69 times higher to develop bone metastases (95% CI: 5.08-18.45). In regard to Gleason groups, those with a 9-10 score presented a risk of bone metastasis 2.67 times higher than patients with lower Gleason score (95% CI: 1.31-5.45). In regard to the clinical stage, those patients with a T3 stage had a 6.77 higher risk than those with lower clinical stages (95% CI: 3.79-12.09). Conclusions: Clinical-pathological characteristics associated with bone metastasis were identified in patients with prostate cancer, including age, Gleason scale, PSA value and clinical T stage.

6036 Background: Diversity of the gut microbiome is associated with response rates for patients receiving immunotherapy. Studies investigating the gut microbiome and outcomes in cancer patients often do not adjust for confounding patient and tumor characteristics. We sought to identify independent gut microbial risk factors in cervical cancer (CC) patients receiving chemoradiation (CRT) and to evaluate their impact on survival. Methods: We analyzed baseline 16S rDNA fecal microbiomes of CC patients receiving standard CRT. Patient and tumor characteristics were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression models for Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and Overall survival (OS) based on univariate p-value>0.2. Characteristics included age, body mass index (BMI), race, stage, grade, histology, nodal status, and max tumor size. Alpha (within sample) diversity was evaluated using Shannon diversity index (SDI). Kaplan-Meier curves were generated for patients with normal BMI and overweight/obese BMI based on Cox analysis. Results: 55 CC patients were included. Univariate analysis identified older age (Hazard Ratio (HR) of 0.93 (95% CI = 0.87-0.98, p = 0.0096)), SDI (HR of 0.51 (95% CI = 0.23-1.1, p = 0.087)) and BMI (HR of 0.92 (95% CI = 0.84-1, p = 0.096)) as risk factors for RFS. Multivariate survival analyses identified BMI and SDI as independent prognostic factors for RFS with a HR of 0.87 (95% CI = 0.77-0.98, p = 0.02) and 0.36 (95% CI = 0.15-0.84, p = 0.018) respectively. For OS, multivariate survival analyses again identified BMI and SDI as independent prognostic factors with a HR of 0.78 (95% CI = 0.623-0.97, p = 0.025) and 0.19 (95% CI = 0.043-0.83, p = 0.028) respectively. Conclusions: Gut diversity is a significant factor for predicting OS in CC patients undergoing CRT when BMI is accounted for, and may help explain the “obesity paradox” in cancer response. Studies exploring the relationship between gut diversity, CRT, and treatment efficacy are needed to further understand the role of the gut microbiome in treatment outcomes. [Table: see text]
