A pathological complete response by chemotherapy with S-1 and oxaliplatin for a locally advanced duodenal adenocarcinoma in Lynch syndrome: a case report.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Although primary duodenal adenocarcinoma (DA) is a rare malignancy representing ~?0.5% of all gastrointestinal cancers, the incidence of DA is more frequent in Lynch syndrome. Because of its rarity, treatment strategies or optimal chemotherapeutic regimens have not been clearly defined for advanced DA. CASE PRESENTATION:A 72-year-old woman with Lynch syndrome visited our hospital with a right upper abdominal pain. Computed tomography (CT) showed wall thickness with enhancement in the second portion of the duodenum and adjacent abdominal wall, which suggested direct tumor invasion to the abdominal wall. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) showed a large ulcerative tumor in the second portion of the duodenum, and histological analysis revealed a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. A cT4N0M0, cStage IIB (Union for International Control Cancer TNM staging) DA was diagnosed. After three courses of chemotherapy with S-1 and oxaliplatin (SOX), follow-up CT and UGE showed shrinkage of the duodenal tumor. Therefore, the patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy with lymph node dissection with curative intent. Histological examination showed a pathological complete response to SOX therapy. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 29. The patient received no adjuvant chemotherapy, and there has been no evidence of recurrence 6?months after the operation. CONCLUSIONS:SOX therapy provided a remarkable response and can be an optimal chemotherapeutic regimen for advanced DA in Lynch syndrome.

Project description:PurposeWe aimed to determine the rate of pathological complete response (pCR), clinicopathological factors associated with pCR, and clinical outcomes following neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer.MethodsMedical records of patients who had undergone neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer between January 2007 and September 2011 were retrospectively reviewed, and the pCR rates were calculated according to three sets of criteria: the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project (NSABP), the MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC), and the German Breast Group (GBG). Tumors were classified as luminal A like, luminal B like, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), or triple-negative. pCR and clinical outcome, including overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were analyzed at the median follow-up of 54.2 months.ResultsOf a total of 179 patients who had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, 167 patients (93.3%) had locally advanced breast cancer and 12 patients (6.7%) had early-stage breast cancer. The majority of patients (152 patients, 89.4%) received anthracycline-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The objective clinical response rate was 61.5%, comprising clinical partial response in 5.5% and clinical complete response in 3.9% of patients. Twenty-one (11.7%), 20 (11.2%), and 17 patients (9.5%) achieved pCR according to NSABP, MDACC, and GBG definitions, respectively. pCR rates, as defined by NSABP, according to breast cancer subtype were 4.4%, 9.7%, 24.2%, and 19.2% in luminal A like, luminal B like, HER2, and triple-negative subtypes, respectively. Patients who achieved pCR had significantly better DFS (5-year DFS rates, 80% vs. 53%, p=0.030) and OS (5-year OS rates, 86% vs. 54%, p=0.042) than those who did not.ConclusionThe pCR rate following neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer in Thai women attending our institution was 11.7%; pCR was more frequently observed in HER2 and triple-negative breast tumor subtypes. Patients who achieved pCR had significantly improved survival.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) have an improved prognosis if achieved a pathological complete response (pCR) on account of neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (nCRT). However, the proportion of patients achieving pCR is only 8-24%. The purpose of this study was to explore whether the addition of consolidation chemotherapy to nCRT could improve pCR rate in patients with LARC.Materials and methodsThe subjects were 144 individuals with clinical stage II (T3-4, N0) or III (any T, N1-2) LARC who had received neoadjuvant CRT followed by total mesorectal excision (TME). Eighty-three patients in the consolidation chemotherapy group received two cycles XELOX between CRT and TME, while 61 patients in the standard treatment group without consolidation chemotherapy. The pCR (ypT0N0), tumor downstaging (ypT0-2N0) after TME and adverse events (AEs) during and post treatment were compared between the treatment groups using multivariable logistic regression analysis. To adjust the unbalanced variables for the primary endpoint, logistic regression analysis and stratified analysis were performed.ResultsThe consolidation chemotherapy group improved pCR rate (19.3% vs 4.9%, p = 0.01) and tumor downstaging rate (45.8% vs 24.6%, p = 0.009) compared to the standard treatment group. After adjustment for clinical tumor stage, clinical nodal stage and time interval to surgery, patients with consolidation chemotherapy were more likely to reach pCR (adjusted odds ratio 4.91, 95% CI [1.01-23.79], p = 0.048). AEs during and post treatment in the two groups were 54.1% vs 49.3% (p = 0.57), respectively. In addition, the incidence of any grade 1-2 AEs in the two groups was 93.4% vs 95.1% (p = 0.93), while the incidence of grade 3 AEs was 1.6% versus 2.4% (p = 0.74), respectively. No grade 4 AEs occurred in two groups.ConclusionsThe addition of neoadjuvant consolidation chemotherapy after CRT significantly increased the pCR rate and did not increase the AEs during and post treatment and in patients with LARC.

Project description:Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding, RNA molecules which regulate numerous cellular processes. Specific miRNA may be abnormally down-regulated or up-regulated in colorectal cancer and have been found associated with prognosis or response to treatments. However, no study has ever addressed their predictive role in rectal cancer. Therefore, we used microarray technology and RT-PCR to profile miRNA expression patterns in patients (pts) with rectal cancer, with the aim to identify a specific M-bM-^@M-^\signatureM-bM-^@M-^] associated with pathological complete response after neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. Methods: 38 pts with locally advanced rectal cancer (cT3-4/N+) were treated with capecitabine-oxaliplatin and pelvic conformal radiotherapy (45 cGy) followed by surgery (after 6-8 weeks). Pathologic response was scored according to the tumor regression grade (TRG) scale. MiRNA expression profile was analysed by microarray on fresh frozen biopsies obtained before treatment start and confirmed by RT-PCR. The correlation between miRNA expression profile and the TRG coded as TRG1 (pathologic Complete Response-pCR) versus TRG >1 (no pCR) was assessed by statistical analysis methods specifically designed for this study. Findings: 14 miRNAs were selected by arrays analysis as differentially expressed in TRG1 pts and 13 were confirmed by RT-PCR. In particular, 11 miRNAs (miR-1183, miR-483-5p, miR-622, miR-125a-3p, miR-1224-5p, miR-188-5p, miR-1471, miR-671-5p, miR-1909*, miR-630 and miR-765) were significantly up-regulated in TRG1 pts, while 2 miRNAs were under -expressed (miR-1274b and miR-720). miR-622 and miR-630 showed 100% sensitivity and specificity in selecting TRG1 cases and were significantly correlated with EGFR (M-OM-^G2=11M-bM-^@M-"793; p= 0M-bM-^@M-"001) and TS expression (M-OM-^G2=10M-bM-^@M-"589; p= 0M-bM-^@M-"001). Interpretation: A set of 13 miRNAs is strongly associated with pathologic complete response and may represent a specific marker of response to chemo-radiotherapy in locally advanced rectal cancer. Experiments were performed on purified RNA from preoperatory biopsies of 38 patients with histological diagnosis of rectal adenocarcinoma invading through the intestinal wall and/or with pelvic lymph node involvement as evaluated by endorectal ultrasonography (uT3-T4 and/or uN+). Patients were treated with neoadjuvant chemo-radiotherapy (capecitabine + oxaliplatin in combination with 45 Gy of pelvic conformal radiotherapy). Patients have been divided in the following two groups: group A those who had obtained a pathologic complete response M-bM-^@M-^S TRG 1, including the patient without detectable disease who refused surgery, group B any pathologic response other than complete.
