Objective: To assess the patterns of myoinvasion of endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma, their frequencies in our hospital and to correlate these patterns with survival. Study Design: Retrospective observational study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Pathology, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital & Research Centre, Lahore, from Aug 2019 to Apr 2020. Methodology: All cases of endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma between 2015 and 2017 were retrieved from the archives, independently reviewed by two researchers, all key reporting parameters recorded in addition to the pattern of myoinvasion as per their operational definitions described by Cole and Quick. The follow-up of 3-5 years was obtained from archives and through telephonic contact for outside hospital patients. Disease free survival and relapse-associated mortality were represented through Kaplan-Meier curves. Results: Eighty cases of myoinvasive endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma were reviewed. We found that infiltrating irregular gland pattern was the most frequent in all the age groups. Thirty-five (43.75%) cases showed this type of invasion, followed by broad front pattern 23 (28.75%), Microcystic Elongated and Fragmented (MELF) pattern 15 (18.75%) and adenomyotic pattern 6 (7.5%). One case showed a combination of the last two patterns, whereas adenoma malignum pattern was not seen. Follow-up of these patients showed 8 (10%) patients with relapse related mortality including 5 (62.5%) infiltrating irregular glands, 2 (25%) adenomyosis-like and 1 (12.5%) broad front pattern of myoinvasion. Seventy-two (90%) patients had recurrence free survival. Conclusion: Frequency of infiltrating irregular pattern of myoinvasion in endometrial endometrioid adenocarcinoma is high and associated with recurrence related mortality.

Objective: Microprolactinomas are currently treated with dopamine agonists. Outcome information on microprolactinoma patients treated by surgery is limited. This study reports the first large series of consecutive non-invasive microprolactinoma patients treated by pituitary surgery and evaluates the efficiency and safety of this treatment. Design: Follow-up of a cohort of consecutive patients treated by surgery. Methods: Between January 2008 and October 2020, 114 adult patients with pure microprolactinomas were operated on in a single tertiary expert neurosurgical department, using an endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approach. Eligible patients were presenting a microprolactinoma with no obvious cavernous invasion on MRI. Prolactin was assayed before and after surgery. Disease-free survival was modeled using Kaplan-Meier representation. A cox regression model was used to predict remission. Results: Median follow-up was 18.2 months (range: 2.8 to 155). In this cohort, 14/114 (12%) patients were not cured by surgery, including 10 early surgical failures, and 4 late relapses occurring 37.4 months (33 to 41.8) after surgery. From Kaplan Meier estimates, 1-year and 5-year disease free survival were 90.9% (95% CI, 85.6%-96.4%) and 81% (95% CI,71.2%-92.1%) respectively. The preoperative prolactinemia was the only significant preoperative predictive factor for remission (P<0.05). No severe complication was reported, with no anterior pituitary deficiency after surgery, one diabetes insipidus, and one postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage properly treated by muscle plasty. Conclusions: In well selected microprolactinoma patients, pituitary surgery performed by an expert neurosurgical team is a valid first-line alternative treatment to dopamine agonists.

The objective of this study was to determine the incidence of multiple primary melanomas (MPM) and other cancers types among patients with melanoma. Factors associated with development of MPM were assessed in a post hoc analysis of the database from a multi-institutional prospective randomized trial of patients with melanoma aged 18 to 70 years with Breslow thickness 1 mm or greater. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. Forty-eight (1.9%) of 2506 patients with melanoma developed additional primary melanomas. Median follow-up was 66 months. Except in one patient, the subsequent melanomas were thinner (median, 0.32 mm vs 1.50 mm; P < 0.0001). Compared with patients without MPM, patients with MPM were more likely to be older (median age, 54.5 vs 51.0 years; P = 0.048), to have superficially spreading melanomas (SSM) ( P = 0.025), to have negative sentinel lymph nodes ( P = 0.021), or to lack lymphovascular invasion (LVI) ( P = 0.008) with the initial tumor. On multivariate analysis, age ( P = 0.028), LVI ( P = 0.010), and SSM subtype of the original melanoma ( P = 0.024) were associated with MPM. Patients with MPM and patients with single primary melanoma had similar DFS (5-year DFS 88.7 vs 81.3%, P = 0.380), but patients with MPM had better OS (5-year OS 95.3 vs 80.0%, P = 0.005). Nonmelanoma malignancies occurred in 152 patients (6.1%). Ongoing surveillance of patients with melanoma is important given that a significant number will develop additional melanoma and nonmelanoma tumors. With close follow-up, second primary melanomas are usually detected at an early stage.

In order to test the toxicity and efficacy of intensive postremission therapy with high-dose cytosine arabinoside with L-asparaginase and amsacrine with etoposide in adults with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANL), 100 adults (ages 19 to 75) with previously untreated ANL were entered into a study using six sequential cycles of chemotherapy. Cycles 1 (induction), 3, and 5 included conventional doses of daunomycin, cytosine arabinoside, 6-thioguanine, vincristine (VCR), and prednisone. Cycle 2 was cytosine arabinoside 3 g/m2 intravenously (IV) every 12 hours for four doses, followed by L-asparaginase 10,000 U intramuscularly (IM) at hour 42; this combination was repeated 1 week later. Cycle 4 included amsacrine 120 mg/m2/d and etoposide 100 mg/m2/d, both IV for five days, and cycle 6 was three monthly courses of VCR on day 1, and prednisone, mercaptopurine, and methotrexate each for five days. Seventy-four patients (74%) achieved complete remission (CR) (51 with cycle 1 and 23 after cycle 2). The overall disease-free survival (DFS) for patients achieving CR is 27% at 3 years by Kaplan-Meier analysis, while for patients achieving CR with cycle 1 it is 34%. The actuarial probability of being free from relapse at 3 years for patients achieving CR is 34%. Sixteen of the 74 CR patients (22%) died in CR while continuing to receive intensive chemotherapy, including 12 (18%) who succumbed to infection (nine bacterial, three fungal). After a median follow-up of 20 months, 36 patients have relapsed and 21 remain alive in CR. Intensive consolidation with high-dose cytosine arabinoside, amsacrine, and etoposide can modestly prolong DFS compared with historical controls. However, relapse continued to be a major problem and, in addition, with more aggressive consolidation therapy, infection during marrow aplasia resulted in a significant number of deaths.

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Autologous PBSC transplant is an important yet evolving treatment modality for patients with AML. However, the ideal mobilization regimen from which to collect PBSC remains in question. Previous reports have indicated that highdose cytarabine with etoposide is both safe and effective in terms of successful PBSC procurement, subsequent engraftment, and disease outcome. METHODS: At our institution from 1994 to 2007, 38 consecutive patients with de novo non-promyelocytic AML in first complete remission following conventional induction chemotherapy were consolidated with high-dose cytarabine (2000mg/m2 IV q12h × 8 doses, days 1–4) and etoposide (40mg/kg IV over 96h) followed by G-CSF 5 mg/kg subcutaneously starting d14 until completion of PBSC collection. Patients underwent myeloablative therapy with busulfan (1mg/kg po q6h × 16 doses, days –7 to -4) and etoposide (60 mg/kg IV over 10h, day -3) with PBSC infusion occurring on day 0 with daily G-CSF 5 mg/kg. Data regarding stem cell yield, engraftment and patient outcome was collected retrospectively. RESULTS: The average patient age was 44 years (range 19–70). Following consolidation, at least 2×106 CD34 cells/kg were isolated from all 38 patients with a median of 9.4×106 (range 2.2–43) CD34 cells/kg over a mean of 4 collections (range 1–11). Overall, 36 of 38 (95%) remained in CR and went onto PBSC transplant (one died from infectious complications during consolidation, one relapsed before transplant). The median number of stem cells infused was 8.8×106 CD 34 cells/kg (range 2.2–47). All 36 patients engrafted with the mean number of days to neutrophil recovery (ANC&gt;500) being 11 (range 8–17) and the mean number of days to platelet recovery (&gt;20,000) being 12 (range 8–19). Disease-free outcomes in patients undergoing PBSC transplant while in CR1 are presented in Figure 1. The 3y overall survival in all pts was 66%, and 56% at 5y. For good-risk cytogenetic patients, 3y OS was 78% and the 5y OS was 75%. For intermediate-risk cytogenetic patients, OS was 47% and 36% at 3y and 5y respectively. Three patients with poor cytogenetics were autulogously transplanted. One patient relapsed at day 111 and expired at day 450. The second patient remains in CR at day 246. The third patient relapsed at day 104 and expired at day 322. CONCLUSION: In patients with de novo non-promyelocytic AML in CR1, consolidation with high-dose cytarabine plus etoposide is safe and provides excellent yield of PBSCs upon growth factor accelerated hematological recovery. Subsequent engraftment after autologous transplanation is rapid. Our outcomes support the viability of this regimen in patients with good and intermediate-risk cytogenetics.

Background. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) ratio on the prognosis of AFP-positive hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after hepatectomy. Methods. We retrospectively included 879 HCC patients with AFP-positive who underwent hepatectomy from February 2012 to October 2017 and randomly divided into training cohort and validation cohort. AFP ratio was equal to the AFP level within one week before hepatectomy to AFP level within 20-40 days after surgery. The end point of follow-up was disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). Results. AFP ratio was not associated with clinical characteristics in training cohort and validation cohort. According to the X-tile software, the optimum cut-off point was 17.8 for AFP ratio. Significant differences between AFP ratio high and AFP ratio low were observed in DFS and OS in both cohort ( p < 0.05 ). Kaplan-Meier curves and receiver-operating curves were showed that AFP ratio was better than AFP level preoperation in predicting the prognosis of AFP-positive HCC patients after hepatectomy. The multivariate analysis demonstrated that AFP ratio was a significant independent risk factor for both OS and DFS in HCC patients with AFP-positive. Conclusions. AFP ratio might be a prognosis predictor for HCC patients with AFP-positive after hepatectomy.

AbstractObjective:To report the results of transoral laser microsurgery for the treatment of early glottic cancer at our institution.Design:Cohort study. Retrospective review of charts of patients diagnosed with tumour stage 1 or 2 (early stage; no nodes or metastases), previously untreated, primary glottic cancer, treated with transoral laser microsurgery at the Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The minimum follow-up period was two years.Setting:Tertiary care head and neck cancer centre.Participants:Fifty-three patients treated between January 2002 and November 2007.Outcome measure:Kaplan–Meier survival analysis for disease-free survival, overall survival and laryngectomy-free survival, at five years.Results:The group comprised 46 men and seven women, with a mean age of 66 years (range 30–84 years). Mean follow up was 40 months (range 12–89 months). There were four cases of complications (7.5 per cent). Kaplan–Meier survival analysis revealed a five-year disease-free survival (including salvage) of 96.2 per cent, a five-year overall survival (all causes) of 88.8 per cent and a five-year laryngectomy-free survival of 98.1 per cent.Conclusion:Transoral laser microsurgery is a safe and effective initial treatment for early laryngeal cancer, and has high rates of laryngeal preservation and disease-free survival.

AbstractObjective:To determine potential prognostic factors for survival in patients with mucosal malignant melanoma of the sinonasal tract.Methods:Patients managed between 1991 and 2008 were assessed retrospectively. The seventh edition Union for International Cancer Control (7th UICC) tumour-node-metastasis classification was used for tumour staging. Kaplan–Meier and log rank tests were used for survival analysis.Results:Twenty-five patients were studied (six were tumour stage three, eight tumour stage four(a) and 11 tumour stage four(b)). Surgery was performed on 23 patients (92 per cent). Fifteen received post-operative radiotherapy. Mean follow up was 31.3 months (range, two to 99 months). Three-year disease-free survival was improved in patients with stage four tumour arising from the nasal fossa, versus other sites, and in those with stage four tumour treated with surgery plus adjuvant radiotherapy, versus other treatments.Conclusion:Patients with melanoma of the nasal cavity have very poor survival rates. Treatment is still based on adequate surgical resection with safe margins. In this study, post-operative radiotherapy improved local control only for stage four tumours.

The prognostic significance of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in melanoma remains controversial. Clinicopathologic data from a prospective trial of patients with melanoma were analyzed with respect to LVI. Disease-free survival and overall survival (OS) were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate factors predictive of tumor-positive sentinel nodes (SLN) and survival. A total of 2183 patients were included in this analysis; 171 (7.8%) had LVI. Median follow-up was 68 months. Factors associated with LVI included tumor thickness, ulceration, and histologic subtype ( P < 0.05). LVI was associated with a greater risk of SLN metastasis ( P < 0.05). By KM analysis, LVI was associated with worse OS ( P = 0.0009). On multivariate analysis, age, gender, thickness, ulceration, anatomic location, and SLN status were predictors of OS; however, LVI was not an independent predictor of OS. Among patients with regression, the 5-year OS rate was 49.4 per cent for patients with LVI versus 81.1 per cent for those with no LVI ( P < 0.0001). LVI is associated with a greater risk of SLN metastasis. Although LVI is not an independent predictor of OS in general, it is a powerful predictor of worse OS among patients who have evidence of regression of the primary tumor.

3500 Background: The IDEA international collaboration was established to combine data from 6 randomized trials to assess whether a 3-month (3M) of oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidines-based adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) is non-inferior to the 6-month (6M) for 3-year disease free survival (DFS) in stage III colon cancer (CC). Methods: French IDEA randomized patients (pts) between 3M and 6M of CT with mFOLFOX6 or XELOX (physician/pts choice). DFS was estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method and described using 3 years DFS rate. Results: Among 2022 randomized pts between May 2009 and May 2014, 2010 (99.4%) received CT and were enrolled in the mITT population: 49.9 and 50.1% in 3M and 6M, respectively. 99.5% of the mITT pts had stage III (N1: 74.9%; N2: 25.2%); median age 63.9 years; mFOLFOX6: 90% and XELOX 10% of pts. DFS median follow-up is 50.2 months. There were 578 DFS events (314 in 3M and 264 in 6M arm) leading to a 3-year DFS rate of 72.1% in the 3M vs. 75.7% in the 6M (HR=1.24; 95%CI 1.05–1.46, p=0.0112). For pts receiving mFOLFOX6, 3-year DFS rate was 72.0% in the 3M vs. 76.3% in the 6M (HR=1.27; 95%CI 1.07–1.51 p=0.0069). 94.2% and 78.0% of pts completed 3 and 6 months of CT, respectively. Median oxaliplatin doses intensity were 96.9% in 3M and 72.1% in 6M (495.0 and 735.1 mg/m2). By considering the neuropathy grade with 15375 neuropathy longitudinal measurements the overall maximal neuropathy grade 0-1/2/3-4 was 63.6/28.5/7.9% in 3M and 33.4/41.3/25.3% in 6M; p<0.0001. At last follow-up assessment, with a median of 43.1 months, final residual grade 2/3-4 neuropathy was 2.1/0.4% in 3M and 5.4/1.3% in 6M; p<0.0001. Conclusions: The IDEA France study, with 90% of patients treated with mFOLFOX6 regimen has shown that 6 months adjuvant treatment is superior to 3 months treatment. IDEA France study results should be considered in line with the international IDEA project that will also be presented at ASCO 2017. Clinical trial information: 2009-010384-16.

e22531 Background: Liposarcoma (LPS) are classified into subtypes: well-differentiated (WDLPS), de-differentiated (DDLPS), myxoid (MLPS) and pleomorphic (PLS). We report a single institution cohort of patients with LPS, undergoing surgery and radiotherapy, to explore prognostic factors related to outcome and toxicity. Methods: This retrospective analysis included 186 LPS patients. Patient, tumor, and treatment variables were analyzed for local recurrence (LR-DFS) and distant metastasis (DM-DFS) disease free survival and overall survival (OS). Results: At a median follow-up of 8.6 years (range, 0.1-27.3 years), Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis showed that LR, DM and OS were 75.5%, 76.6% and 48.1%, respectively. KM analysis showed that Age>56, DDLPS and lower limb localization were related to LR (p=0,001, p=0,0001 and p=0,0001, respectively). Association between LR, Age and DDLPS persisted both at univariate (p=0,003 and p=0,0001, respectively) and multivariate Cox regression (CR) analysis (p=0,024 and p=0,002). Age, tumor depth and grading influenced distant recurrence, both at KM (p=0,023, p = 0.026 and p = 0.016) and univariate CR (p=0,026, p=0,042 and p=0,012). Age and grading were confirmed at multivariate analysis (p=0,009 and p 0,017). Patients with WDLPS and wide excision had significantly better OS (p=0,001 and p=0,03, respectively), while histologic G3 and age>56 were related with worse OS (p= 0,008 and p=0,0001, respectively). Age, DDLPS and Grade were related to OS at univariate (p=0,0001, p=0,0001 and p=0,03, respectively) and multivariate CR analysis (p=0,031, p=0,0001 and p=0,001, respectively). Conclusions: Our analysis confirmed that Grade, tumor depth and histological subtype influenced survival. Further studies are needed in order to explore the influence of hystopathologic features on treatment outcomes. [Table: see text]
