PURPOSE: The presence of MYC and BCL2 translocations (ie, double-hit lymphoma, DHL) in large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is associated with reduced chemosensitivity, but less is known on its impact on radiotherapy (RT) efficacy. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patients with LBCL who received their first course of RT for relapsed/refractory disease between 2008 and 2020 were eligible if there was adequate pathologic evaluation to be categorized as DHL versus non-DHL as per the World Health Organization (fifth edition). Separate analyses were conducted by treatment intent. Predictors for response (complete and partial) and local recurrence (LR) were evaluated using Cox regression analysis. LR analysis was restricted to curative-intent patients to ensure adequate follow-up. RESULTS: Three hundred and eighty-three patients (102 DHL, 281 non-DHL, and 44% curative) were treated at 447 sites. Median time from diagnosis to RT was 11.6 months, with 38.7% of patients having primary chemorefractory disease, 37.4% having received >2 lines of systemic therapy, and 24% status post-stem cell transplant. Median biological equivalent dose (alpha/beta: 10) was 28 Gy (range: 3.2-60.0) for palliative and 46.9 Gy (range: 6.4-84.0) for curative-intent patients. With a median follow-up of 41.1 and 41.5 months among curative and palliative patients, respectively, the response was high (81.1% curative, 60.1% palliative). On univariate analysis, DHL pathology was not associated with RT response in either curative or palliative patients. Among curative patients, 2-year LR rate was 38.8%. On multivariable analysis, DHL pathology was associated with a 2 times higher risk of LR (95% CI: 1.05-3.67, P = .03), with a crude LR rate of 42.9% (DHL) versus 28.9% (non-DHL). RT was well tolerated with low rates of grade 3 or higher acute toxicity (1.8% curative, 2.9% palliative). CONCLUSIONS: Relapsed/refractory LBCL remains radioresponsive with a 60%-80% response rate to RT. Although DHL pathology does not appear to influence RT response, its presence is associated with higher rates of LR, suggesting that it may be more radioresistant.

BACKGROUND: Patients with gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma with tumour-positive lymph nodes (ypN+) or positive surgical margins (R1) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and resection are at high risk of recurrence. Adjuvant nivolumab is effective in oesophageal/oesophagogastric junction cancer and residual pathological disease following chemoradiation and surgery. Immune checkpoint inhibition has shown efficacy in advanced gastro-oesophageal cancer. We hypothesised that nivolumab/ipilimumab would be more effective than adjuvant chemotherapy in high-risk (ypN+ and/or R1) patients with gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and resection. PATIENTS AND METHODS: VESTIGE was an academic international, multicentre, open-label, randomised phase II trial evaluating the efficacy of adjuvant nivolumab/ipilimumab versus chemotherapy in gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma at high risk of recurrence. Patients were randomised 1 : 1 to receive standard adjuvant chemotherapy (same regimen as neoadjuvant) or nivolumab 3 mg/kg intravenously (i.v.) every 2 weeks plus ipilimumab 1 mg/kg i.v. every 6 weeks for 1 year. Key inclusion criteria included ypN+ and/or R1 status after neoadjuvant chemotherapy plus surgery. The primary endpoint was disease-free survival in the intent-to-treat population. Secondary endpoints included overall survival, locoregional and distant failure rates, and safety according to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v5.0. RESULTS: The independent Data Monitoring Committee reviewed data from 189 of the planned 240 patients in June 2022 and recommended stopping recruitment due to futility. At the time of final analysis, median follow-up was 25.3 months for 195 patients (98 nivolumab/ipilimumab and 97 chemotherapy). Median disease-free survival for the nivolumab/ipilimumab group was 11.4 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 8.4-16.8 months] versus 20.8 months (95% CI 15.0-29.9 months) for the chemotherapy group, hazard ratio 1.55 (95% CI 1.07-2.25, one-sided P = 0.99). The 12-month disease-free survival rates were 47.1% and 64.0%, respectively. There were no toxicity concerns or excess early discontinuations. CONCLUSION: Nivolumab/ipilimumab did not improve disease-free survival compared with chemotherapy in patients with ypN+ and/or R1 gastro-oesophageal adenocarcinoma following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgery.

BACKGROUNDS: SWI/SNF complexes represent a family of multi-subunit chromatin remodelers that are affected by alterations in >20% of human tumors. While mutations of SWI/SNF genes are relatively uncommon in prostate cancer (PCa), the literature suggests that deregulation of various subunits plays a role in prostate tumorigenesis. To assess SWI/SNF functions in a clinical context, we studied the mutually exclusive, paralogue accessory subunits SMARCD1, SMARCD2, and SMARCD3 that are included in every known complex and are sought to confer specificity. METHODS: Performing immunohistochemistry (IHC), the protein levels of the SMARCD family members were measured using a tissue microarray (TMA) comprising malignant samples and matching healthy tissue of non-metastatic PCa patients (n = 168). Moreover, IHC was performed in castration-resistant tumors (n = 9) and lymph node metastases (n = 22). To assess their potential role as molecular biomarkers, SMARCD1 and SMARCD3 protein levels were correlated with clinical parameters such as T stage, Gleason score, biochemical recurrence, and progression-free survival. RESULTS: SMARCD1 protein levels in non-metastatic primary tumors, lymph node metastases, and castration-resistant samples were significantly higher than in benign tissues. Likewise, SMARCD3 protein expression was elevated in tumor tissue and especially lymph node metastases compared to benign samples. While SMARCD1 levels in primary tumors did not exhibit significant associations with any of the tested clinical parameters, SMARCD3 exhibited an inverse correlation with pre-operative PSA levels. Moreover, low SMARCD3 expression was associated with progression to metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: In congruence with previous literature, our results implicate that both SMARCD1 and SMARCD3 may exhibit relevant functions in the context of prostate tumorigenesis. Moreover, our approach suggests a potential role of SMARCD3 as a novel prognostic marker in clinically non-metastatic PCa.

BACKGROUND: Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a cutaneous sarcoma with an infiltrative growth pattern that makes it challenging to clear margins. High quality data regarding DFSP natural history, management, and outcomes are limited. METHODS: Data were retrospectively collected for adult DFSP patients who underwent resection at 10 institutions in eight countries. Demographics, tumor characteristics, treatment strategies, and outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS: Analysis included 347 patients consisting of young (median, 42 years), White (76.2%), males (54.2%) with truncal lesions (57.3%). The majority (76.8%) were symptomatic at presentation. Preoperative imaging was used in 55.9% of cases. Diagnosis was established with excisional biopsy in 50.9% versus incisional biopsy in 25.0% of cases. Despite planned margins of >1.0 cm in 67.4% of cases, only 69.0% of patients achieved R0 resection. Twenty-two percent of patients underwent at least one re-excision. R0 resection was achieved at a second procedure in 80.2% and a third procedure in 86.2%. Ultimately, R0 resection was feasible in 89.5% of all patients. Fibrosarcomatous transformation (FST) was observed in 12.6%. In total, 6.6% (N = 23) recurred (17 local, six distant). Of the six distant recurrences, 50.0% had FST. With a median follow-up of 47.0 months, disease-specific survival rate was 98.8%. In multivariable analysis, R0 margins at index resection were associated with wider circumferential margins and non-FST histology. CONCLUSIONS: In this international, multicenter collaborative, DFSP practice patterns were heterogeneous but achieved favorable recurrence rates and survival. Multiple excisions to clear margins remain commonplace and can inform future efforts to optimize margin selection.

BACKGROUND: In the ARIEL4 trial of rucaparib versus standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with relapsed BRCA-mutated ovarian carcinoma, the primary endpoint was met, showing improved investigator-assessed progression-free survival with rucaparib. Here, we present the final overall survival analysis of the trial and other post-progression outcomes. METHODS: This open-label, randomised, controlled phase 3 trial was done at 64 hospitals and cancer centres in 12 countries, including Brazil, Canada, Czech Republic, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Poland, Russia, Spain, Ukraine, the UK, and the USA. Eligible patients were women aged 18 or older with BRCA1 or BRCA2-mutated ovarian carcinoma and had received at least two previous chemotherapy regimens. Patients had to have evaluable disease as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST; version 1.1) criteria and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1. Patients were randomly assigned (2:1) using an interactive response technology and block randomisation (block size of six) and stratified by progression-free interval after the most recent platinum-containing therapy to receive oral rucaparib (600 mg twice daily administered in 28-day cycles) or chemotherapy on the basis of platinum-sensitivity status. In the chemotherapy group, patients with platinum-resistant disease (progression-free interval ≥1 to <6 months) or partially platinum-sensitive disease (progression-free interval ≥6 to <12 months) received weekly paclitaxel (starting dose 60-80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15). Patients with fully platinum-sensitive disease (progression-free interval ≥12 months) received the investigator's choice of platinum-based chemotherapy (single-agent cisplatin or carboplatin, or platinum-doublet chemotherapy), in 21-day or 28-day cycles. The primary endpoint (previously reported) was investigator-assessed progression-free survival, assessed in the efficacy population (all randomly assigned patients with deleterious BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations without reversion mutations) and in the intention-to-treat population (all randomly assigned patients). Overall survival was a prespecified secondary endpoint and was analysed in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of assigned study treatment. The cutoff date was April 10, 2022. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02855944; enrolment is complete and the study is closed. FINDINGS: Between March 1, 2017, and Sept 24, 2020, 349 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive rucaparib (n=233) or chemotherapy (n=116). 332 (95%) of 349 patients were white and 17 (5%) patients were other or of unknown race. In the chemotherapy group, 80 (69%) of 116 patients crossed over to receive rucaparib. Median follow-up was 41·2 months (IQR 37·8-44·6). At data cutoff for this final analysis (April 10, 2022), 244 (70%) of 349 patients had died: 167 (72%) of 233 in the rucaparib group and 77 (66%) of 116 in the rucaparib group. Median overall survival was 19·4 months (95% CI 15·2-23·6) in the rucaparib group versus 25·4 months (21·4-27·6) in the chemotherapy group (hazard ratio 1·3 [95% CI 1·0-1·7], p=0·047). No new safety signals were observed, including during crossover to rucaparib. The most common grade 3-4 adverse events across treatment groups included anaemia or decreased haemoglobin (reported in 59 [25%] of 232 patients in the rucaparib group and seven [6%] of 113 in the chemotherapy group), and neutropenia or decreased neutrophil count (in 26 [11%] of 232 in the rucaparib group and 16 [14%] of 113 patients in the chemotherapy group). Serious adverse events were reported in 66 (28%) of 232 patients in the rucaparib group and 14 (12%) of 113 patients in the chemotherapy group. Ten treatment-related deaths were reported in the rucaparib group, two of which were linked to judged to be related to rucaparib (cardiac disorder and myelodysplastic syndrome), and one death related to treatment was reported in the chemotherapy group, with no specific cause linked to the treatment. INTERPRETATION: These data highlight the need for a better understanding of the most appropriate treatment for patients who have progressed on a poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, and the optimal sequencing of chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors in advanced ovarian cancer.

BACKGROUND: The combination of ibrutinib and venetoclax leverages complementary mechanisms of action and has shown promising clinical activity in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of ibrutinib-venetoclax compared with ibrutinib-placebo in patients with relapsed or refractory MCL. METHODS: SYMPATICO is a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 study performed at 84 hospitals in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific. Eligible patients were adults (aged ≥18 years) with pathologically confirmed relapsed or refractory MCL after one to five previous lines of therapy and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-2. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive oral ibrutinib 560 mg once daily concurrently with oral venetoclax (5-week ramp-up to 400 mg once daily) or placebo for 2 years, then single-agent ibrutinib 560 mg once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Randomisation and treatment assignment occurred via interactive response technology using a stratified permuted block scheme (block sizes of 2 and 4) with stratification by ECOG performance status, previous lines of therapy, and tumour lysis syndrome risk category. Patients and investigators were masked to treatment assignment. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival in the intention-to-treat population. Safety was assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of study treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03112174, and is closed to enrolment. FINDINGS: Between April 26, 2018, and Aug 28, 2019, 267 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned; 134 to the ibrutinib-venetoclax group and 133 to the ibrutinib-placebo group. 211 (79%) of 267 patients were male and 56 (21%) were female. With a median follow-up of 51·2 months (IQR 48·2-55·3), median progression-free survival was 31·9 months (95% CI 22·8-47·0) in the ibrutinib-venetoclax group and 22·1 months (16·5-29·5) in the ibrutinib-placebo group (hazard ratio 0·65 [95% CI 0·47-0·88]; p=0·0052). The most common grade 3-4 adverse events were neutropenia (42 [31%] of 134 patients in the ibrutinib-venetoclax group vs 14 [11%] of 132 patients in the ibrutinib-placebo group), thrombocytopenia (17 [13%] vs ten [8%]), and pneumonia (16 [12%] vs 14 [11%]). Serious adverse events occurred in 81 (60%) of 134 patients in the ibrutinib-venetoclax group and in 79 (60%) of 132 patients in the ibrutinib-placebo group. Treatment-related deaths occurred in three (2%) of 134 patients in the ibrutinib-venetoclax group (n=1 COVID-19 infection, n=1 cardiac arrest, and n=1 respiratory failure) and in two (2%) of 132 patients in the ibrutinib-placebo group (n=1 cardiac failure and n=1 COVID-19-related pneumonia). INTERPRETATION: The combination of ibrutinib-venetoclax significantly improved progression-free survival compared with ibrutinib-placebo in patients with relapsed or refractory MCL. The safety profile was consistent with known safety profiles of the individual drugs. These findings suggest a positive benefit-risk profile for ibrutinib-venetoclax treatment.

High-grade B-cell lymphomas (HGBCLs) are aggressive blood cancers with a severe disease course, especially when the central nervous system (CNS) is involved. Standard histological examination depends on tissue availability and is currently supplemented with molecular tests, as the status of MYC, BCL2, or BCL6 gene rearrangements is required for proper lymphoma classification. This case report demonstrates the relevance of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cell-free DNA testing by integrative next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel. The benefit of this approach resided in tumor genotyping alongside the proof of CNS progression despite MRI negativity, revealing a clonal relationship with the primary tumor lesion. In addition, our strategy allowed us to classify the tumor as DLBCL/HGBL-MYC/BCL2 entity. In clinical practice, such a minimally invasive approach provides a more sensitive tool than standard imaging and cell analyzing techniques, enabling more accurate disease monitoring and relapse prediction in particular cases.

Ovariální karcinom představuje nejčastější příčinu úmrtí z gynekologických malignit. U dvou třetin pacientek je nemoc diagnostikována v pokročilém stadiu s peritoneální karcinomatózou. Základem léčby je v současné době primární cytoredukční výkon s cílem dosažení mikroskopického rezidua s následnou systémovou léčbou chemoterapií. V případech, kdy není možné dosáhnout optimální cytoredukci, je alternativou podání neoadjuvantní chemoterapie s následnou operací. V současné době lze pozorovat rostoucí zájem o zhodnocení potenciálního přínosu radikální cytoredukční operace v kombinaci s hypertermickou intraperitoneální chemoterapií (HIPEC) především v primární léčbě pokročilého ovariálního karcinomu. Nově jsou k dispozici výsledky III. fáze multicentrických prospektivních studií.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the oncological impact of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) vs standard PLND (sPLND) during radical cystectomy (RC) in clinically lymph node-positive (cN+) bladder cancer (BCa). PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this retrospective, multicentre study we included 969 patients who underwent RC with sPLND (internal/external iliac and obturator lymph nodes) or ePLND (sPLND plus common iliac and presacral nodes) with or without platin-based peri-operative chemotherapy for cTany N1-3 M0 BCa between 1991 and 2022. We assessed the impact of ePLND on recurrence-free survival (RFS) and the distribution of recurrences (locoregional and distant recurrences). The secondary endpoint was overall survival (OS). We performed propensity-score matching using covariates associated with the extent of PLND in univariable logistic regression analysis. The association of the extent of PLND with RFS and OS was investigated using Cox regression models. RESULTS: Of 969 cN+ patients, 510 were 1:1 matched on propensity scores. The median (interquartile range [IQR]) time to recurrence was 8 (4-16) months, and median (IQR) follow-up of alive patients was 30 (13-51) months. Disease recurrence was observed in 104 patients in the ePLND and 107 in the sPLND group. Of these, 136 (27%), 47 (9.2%) and 19 patients (3.7%) experienced distant, locoregional, or both distant and locoregional disease recurrence, respectively. When stratified by the extent of PLND, we did not find a difference in recurrence patterns (P > 0.05). ePLND improved neither RFS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.91, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.70-1.19; P = 0.5) nor OS (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.60-1.01; P = 0.06) compared to sPLND. Stratification by induction chemotherapy did not change outcomes. CONCLUSION: Performing an ePLND at the time of RC in cN+ patients improved neither RFS nor OS compared to sPLND, regardless of induction chemotherapy status. Pretreatment risk stratification is paramount to identify ideal candidates for RC with ePLND as part of a multimodal treatment approach.

OBJECTIVE: Patients with TNM T1a cervical cancer have excellent prognosis; however, the risk for recurrence remains an issue of concern and management guidelines are based on limited data. Here we performed subgroup analysis of the Surveillance in Cervical Cancer (SCCAN) consortium with the objective of defining the prognosis of T1a cervical cancer patients. METHODS: SCCAN was an international, multicentric, retrospective cohort study of patients with cervical cancer undergoing surgical treatment in tertiary centers. Inclusion criteria included: histologically confirmed cervical cancer treated between 2007 and 2016; TNM T1a; primary surgical management; and at least 1-year of follow-up data availability. Exclusion criteria included treatment with primary chemo-radiation, and missing treatment-related or clinical data. RESULTS: Out of 975 patients included, 554 (57 %) were T1a1 and 421 (43 %) T1a2. The majority had squamous-cell carcinoma (78 %). 79 patients (8.1 %) had lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI). 455 patients (47 %) underwent radical hysterectomy/ parametrectomy. Laparoscopic and open surgery was performed in 401 (41 %) and in 361 (37 %) patients, respectively. Adjuvant treatment was administered to 56 patients (5.7 %). Assessment of lymph nodes (LN) was performed in 524 patients (54 %), with LN involvement found in 15 (2.9 %). There were 40 (4.1 %) recurrences, occurring at a median of 26 months (4-106), out of which 33 (82.5 %) occurred in pelvis. Among T1a1 cases, there were 10 recurrences (2.0 %) if LVSI was negative, and 3 recurrences (6.7 %) if LVSI was positive. Among T1a2 cases, there were 23 recurrences (6.7 %) if LVSI was negative, and 4 recurrences (5.1 %) if LVSI was positive. There were 3 recurrences in the LN+ group (recurrence rate 20 %). CONCLUSIONS: The risk of recurrence in T1a cervical cancer was 4.1 % corresponding to the rates seen in patients with FIGO 1B cancer in recently published prospective trials. LN involvement represents a risk factor for disease recurrence. Our results indicate that stage T1a cervical cancer, apart from T1a1 LVSI negative disease, should follow the same principles in the management as that of FIGO stage 1B cancer.
