    الوصف: Aim: Describing the treatment patterns, outcomes by line of treatment (LOT), and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) in patients with metastatic synovial sarcoma (mSS). Patients & methods: In this descriptive, non-interventional, retrospective cohort study, physicians from five European countries reported on patients with recent pharmacological treatment for mSS. Results: Among 296 patients with mSS, 86.1, 38.9 and 8.4% received 1 LOT (1L), 2 LOTs (2L) and 3+ LOTs (L3+), respectively. Common regimens were doxorubicin/ifosfamide-based (37.4%) for 1L and trabectedin-based for 2L (29.7%). For 1L, median time to next treatment was 13.1 and 6.0 months for living and deceased patients, respectively. Median OS was 22.0, 6.0 and 4.9 months in all patients, 2L and 3L, respectively. HCRU data showed median one inpatient hospital admission, 3 days in hospital and four outpatient visits yearly. Conclusion: This large-scale study documents high unmet needs in patients previously treated for mSS and for more effective therapies.

    الوصف: Background The benefit of adjuvant therapy in synovial sarcoma (SS) treatment is under debate. Long-term follow-up data are missing. Methods SS patients treated in the consecutive trials CWS-81, CWS-86, CWS-91, CWS-96, CWS-2002-P, and the SoTiSaR-registry till 2013 were analyzed. Results Median age of 185 patients was 13.9 years (0.1–56)—with median follow-up of 7.4 years for 163 survivors. Most tumors (76%) were located in extremities. Size was 10 cm in 13 (7%) (13 missing). In 84 (45%) tumors, first excision was complete (R0 corresponding to IRS-I-group) and in 101 (55%) marginal (R1 corresponding to IRS-II-group). In a subsequent surgical intervention during chemotherapy, R0-status was accomplished in 23 additional IRS-II-group patients with secondary surgery. Radiotherapy was administered to 135 (73%), thereof 62 with R0-status and 67 R1-status (6 missing information). Adjuvant chemotherapy was administered to all but six patients. 5-year event-free (EFS) and overall survival (OS) was 82.9% ± 5.7 (95%CI) and 92.5% ± 3.9. Local and metastatic relapse-free survival was 91.3% ± 4.3 and 92.3% ± 4.1 at 5 years, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, tumor size and no chemotherapy were independently associated with EFS. Size and site were associated with OS. In a detailed analysis of local and metastatic events, tumor size was associated with an independent risk for developing metastases. No independent factor for suffering local recurrence could be identified. Discussion Omission of chemotherapy in a non-stratified way seems not justified. Size governs survival due to high linear association with risk of suffering metastatic recurrence in a granular classification.

    الوصف: Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare subtype of soft tissue sarcoma characterized by an unbalanced translocation, resulting in ASPSCR1-TFE3 fusion that transcriptionally upregulates MET expression. The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) 90101 "CREATE" phase II trial evaluated the MET inhibitor crizotinib in ASPS patients, achieving only limited antitumor activity. We performed a comprehensive molecular analysis of ASPS tissue samples collected in this trial to identify potential biomarkers correlating with treatment outcome. A tissue microarray containing 47 ASPS cases was used for the characterization of the tumor microenvironment using multiplex immunofluorescence. DNA isolated from 34 available tumor samples was analyzed to detect recurrent gene copy number alterations (CNAs) and mutations by low-coverage whole-genome sequencing and whole-exome sequencing. Pathway enrichment analysis was used to identify diseased-associated pathways in ASPS sarcomagenesis. Kaplan-Meier estimates, Cox regression, and the Fisher's exact test were used to correlate histopathological and molecular findings with clinical data related to crizotinib treatment, aiming to identify potential factors associated with patient outcome. Tumor microenvironment characterization showed the presence of PD-L1 and CTLA-4 in 10 and 2 tumors, respectively, and the absence of PD-1 in all specimens. Apart from CD68, other immunological markers were rarely expressed, suggesting a low level of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in ASPS. By CNA analysis, we detected a number of broad and focal alterations. The most common alteration was the loss of chromosomal region 1p36.32 in 44% of cases. The loss of chromosomal regions 1p36.32, 1p33, 1p22.2, and 8p was associated with shorter progression-free survival. Using whole-exome sequencing, 13 cancer-associated genes were found to be mutated in at least three cases. Pathway enrichment analysis identified genetic alterations in NOTCH signaling, chromatin organization, and SUMOylation pathways. NOTCH4 intracellular domain dysregulation was associated with poor outcome, while inactivation of the beta-catenin/TCF complex correlated with improved outcome in patients receiving crizotinib. ASPS is characterized by molecular heterogeneity. We identify genetic aberrations potentially predictive of treatment outcome during crizotinib therapy and provide additional insights into the biology of ASPS, paving the way to improve treatment approaches for this extremely rare malignancy. ispartof: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES vol:23 issue:10 ispartof: location:Switzerland status: published

    الوصف: Purpose When brain cancer relapses, treatment options are scarce. The use of molecularly matched targeted therapies may provide a feasible and efficacious way to treat individual patients based on the molecular tumor profile. Since little information is available on this strategy in neuro-oncology, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical course of 41 patients who underwent advanced molecular testing at disease relapse. Methods We performed Sanger sequencing, targeted next generation sequencing, and immunohistochemistry for analysis of potential targets, including programmed death ligand 1, cyclin D1, phosphorylated mechanistic target of rapamycin, telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter mutation, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A/B deletion, or BRAF-V600E mutation. In selected patients, whole exome sequencing was conducted. Results The investigation included 41 patients, of whom 32 had isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) wildtype glioblastoma. Molecular analysis revealed actionable targets in 31 of 41 tested patients and 18 patients were treated accordingly (matched therapy group). Twenty-three patients received molecularly unmatched empiric treatment (unmatched therapy group). In both groups, 16 patients were diagnosed with recurrent IDH wildtype glioblastoma. The number of severe adverse events was comparable between the therapy groups. Regarding the IDH wildtype glioblastoma patients, median progression-free survival (mPFS) and median overall survival (mOS) were longer in the matched therapy group (mPFS: 3.8 versus 2.0 months, p = 0.0057; mOS: 13.0 versus 4.3 months, p = 0.0357). Conclusion These encouraging data provide a rationale for molecularly matched targeted therapy in glioma patients. For further validation, future study designs need to additionally consider the prevalence and persistence of actionable molecular alterations in patient tissue.

    الوصف: Weitere Nicht-UDE Autoren sind nicht mit aufgeführt. enosynovial giant cell tumour (TGCT) is a rare, locally aggressive, mesenchymal tumor arising from the joints, bursa and tendon sheaths. TGCT comprises a nodular- and a diffuse-type, with the former exhibiting mostly indolent course and the latter a locally aggressive behavior. Although usually not life-threatening, TGCT may cause chronic pain and adversely impact function and quality of life (QoL). CSFR1 inhibitors are effective with benefit on symptoms and QoL but are not available in most countries. The degree of uncertainty in selecting the most appropriate therapy and the lack of guidelines on the clinical management of TGCT make the adoption of new treatments inconsistent across the world, with suboptimal outcomes for patients. A global consensus meeting was organized in June 2022, involving experts from several disciplines and patient representatives from SPAGN to define the best evidence-based practice for the optimal approach to TGCT and generate the recommendations presented herein.

    الوصف: Over the last few decades the ILAE classifications for seizures and epilepsies (ILAE-EC) have been updated repeatedly to reflect the substantial progress that has been made in diagnosis and understanding of the etiology of epilepsies and seizures and to correct some of the shortcomings of the terminology used by the original taxonomy from the 1980s. However, these proposals have not been universally accepted or used in routine clinical practice. During the same period, a separate classification known as the "Four-dimensional epilepsy classification" (4D-EC) was developed which includes a seizure classification based exclusively on ictal symptomatology, which has been tested and adapted over the years. The extensive arguments for and against these two classification systems made in the past have mainly focused on the shortcomings of each system, presuming that they are incompatible. As a further more detailed discussion of the differences seemed relatively unproductive, we here review and assess the concordance between these two approaches that has evolved over time, to consider whether a classification incorporating the best aspects of the two approaches is feasible. To facilitate further discussion in this direction we outline a concrete proposal showing how such a compromise could be accomplished, the "Integrated Epilepsy Classification". This consists of five categories derived to different degrees from both of the classification systems: 1) a "Headline" summarizing localization and etiology for the less specialized users, 2) "Seizure type(s)", 3) "Epilepsy type" (focal, generalized or unknown allowing to add the epilepsy syndrome if available), 4) "Etiology", and 5) "Comorbidities & patient preferences".
