RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: There are multiple neoadjuvant regimens, including platinum agents for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), each with a different safety profile, outcome, and pathologic complete response rate (pCR%). We performed a systematic review and network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of different platinum-based neoadjuvant CT treatments for TNBC. METHODS: Bibliographic databases (PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library) were searched from their inception to October 31, 2022. Eligible studies were randomized clinical trials that evaluated the addition of carboplatin or cisplatin to standard neoadjuvant CT for TNBC. The primary endpoints were pCR rates and DFS/EFS, while the secondary endpoints were grade (G)3-4 hematological toxicity and OS. RESULTS: Thirteen trials involving 3154 patients comparing six treatments (carboplatin AUC 5, carboplatin AUC 6, carboplatin AUC 2, carboplatin AUC 1.5, cisplatin 75 mg/m2, and standard anthracycline-and/or taxane-based CT) were identified. Based on the most effective treatments added to neoadjuvant CT, carboplatin AUC 2 was associated with the least improvement in pCR% (RR, 1.49; 95%CI, 1.23, 1.8), carboplatin AUC 6 was associated with similar improvement in pCR% (RR 1.58, 95%CI, 1.35, 1.84) and carboplatin AUC 5 with the highest improvement in pCR% (RR 2.23, 95%CI, 1.6,32). The treatment associated with the most considerable improvement in DFS when added to neoadjuvant CT was carboplatin AUC 5 (HR 0.36, 95%CI 0.18, 0.73). It was also better than AUC 6 and AUC 2 (HR= 0.45, 95%CI 0.21-0.96 and HR=0.48, 95%CI 0.23-0.98). All schedules exhibited similar outcomes in terms of OS; however, only AUC 2 demonstrated a significant improvement compared to the no-platinum arms. Neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia G3-4 were significantly increased by carboplatin AUC 6. CONCLUSIONS: Based on this network meta-analysis, carboplatin AUC 5 added to standard neoadjuvant CT may provide substantial pCR and DFS benefits with a low toxicity risk compared to other carboplatin doses.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Low human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression (HER2-low: 1+/2+ by immunohistochemistry without HER2 amplification) is emerging as defining a specific breast cancer (BC) subgroup owing to its distinct biological features. However, its prognostic role has not been confirmed in clinical practice. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the prognostic role of HER2-low status in patients with estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) early BC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library for prospective or retrospective studies that reported data on overall (OS) or disease-free (DFS) survival for HER2-low compared to HER2-negative BC. Data were pooled using hazard ratios (HR) with confidence intervals (CI) for OS/DFS of HER2-low vs. HER2-negative subgroups according to the random-effects model. OS was the primary outcome measure, and DFS and pathological complete response were the secondary endpoints. RESULTS: An analysis was made of 25 studies collected, including 34,965 patients with HER2-low BC. A HER2-low status was associated with an HR for OS of 0.83 (95% CI=0.76-0.9, p<0.0.01). Similarly, a pooled HR of 0.89 (95% CI=0.840.94, p<0.0.01) showed that patients with HER2-low BC had an increased DFS. Pathological complete response was significantly lower in HER2-low BC in 13 studies (OR=0.72, 95% CI=0.58-0.91; p<0.01). CONCLUSION: Based on these data, HER2-low status should be identified as a potential prognostic factor in early stage ER+ BC. This should be taken into account when considering treatment in (neo)adjuvant settings, and it should be a potential stratification factor in future investigations.

INTRODUCTION: Cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors have an extremely important impact on the treatment of hormone-sensitive breast cancer (BC) and have radically changed the first-line treatment for metastatic disease with increased rates of treatment response, overall survival (OS), and progression-free survival (PFS). We performed a pooled analysis of randomized trials to validate or refute the hypothesis that there is a significant survival benefit of adding anti-CDK4/6 inhibitors to standard endocrine therapy (ET) in older patients with advanced BC. METHODS: We selected only English-language phase II/III randomized controlled trials that compared ET alone with ET with anti-CDK4/6 inhibitors in the treatment of advanced BC, with subgroups reporting the outcomes of elderly patients (usually at least 65 years). The primary endpoint was OS. RESULTS: The review process led to the inclusion of 12 articles and two meeting abstracts, including a total of 10 trials. The addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors to ET (letrozole or fulvestrant) significantly reduced mortality risk by 20% in younger patients (fixed-effect model; HR 0.80; 95% CI 0.72-0.9; p < 0.01) and 21% in older BC patients (HR 0.79; 95% CI 0.69-0.91; p < 0.01). No OS data were available for patients ≥70 years. CONCLUSION: This large, pooled analysis is the first to demonstrate that CDK4/6 inhibitors confer OS and PFS benefits in elderly patients (those aged ≥65 years) with advanced ER + BC and to indicate that it should be discussed with and offered to all patients after geriatric assessment and according to the toxicity profile.

INTRODUCTION: Although platinum-based chemotherapy (CT) is considered the standard treatment for relapsed platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, there is currently no standard treatment for these patients. We compared the effectiveness of modern and older therapies in relapsed platinum-sensitive, BRCA-wild type, and ovarian cancers using a network meta-analysis (NMA). METHODS: A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library was performed up to October 31, 2022. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) that compared different second-line approaches were included. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) and the secondary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS: In total, 17 RCTs (n = 9405) comparing various strategies were included. The risk of death was significantly decreased with carboplatin + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin + bevacizumab compared to platinum-based doublet CT (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.59, 95%CI 0.35, 1). Various strategies, including secondary cytoreduction followed by platinum-based CT, carboplatin + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin + bevacizumab, and platinum-based CT with bevacizumab or cediranib, were better than platinum-based doublets alone for PFS. CONCLUSIONS: This NMA showed that carboplatin + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin + bevacizumab seems to increase the efficacy of standard second-line CT. These strategies can be considered when treating patients with relapsed platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer without BRCA mutations. This study provides systematic comparative evidence for the efficacy of different second-line therapies for relapsed ovarian cancer.

BACKGROUND: The immune system (innate and adaptive) is influenced by vitamin D3, which affects gene expression and inflammatory pathways. An umbrella review was conducted to evaluate the power and accuracy of data connecting vitamin D3 to the outcomes of COVID-19 infection and to appraise the proof provided by published meta-analyses. METHODS: MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched from database inception to 31 May 2022. Meta-analyses of prospective or retrospective observational studies and randomized trials were included. Evidence of association was graded according to the established criteria: strong, highly suggestive, suggestive, weak, or not significant. RESULTS: From 74 publications, 27 meta-analyses described five associations between vitamin D3 levels and supplementation and COVID-19 outcomes. Low levels of vitamin D3 were significantly associated with severity (highly suggestive evidence; OR = 1.97 [95% CI, 1.55-2.51], p < 0.01; I2 = 77%, p < 0.01) and mortality risk due to COVID-19 disease (OR = 1.83 [95% CI, 1.55-2.16], p < 0.01; I2 = 50%, p < 0.01). Vitamin D3 supplementation, after a diagnosis of COVID-19 infection, was associated with significantly reduced infection severity (e.g., ICU admission) and mortality. CONCLUSIONS: This umbrella review of the available evidence suggests that insufficient vitamin D3 may increase COVID-19 infection risk, severity, and mortality, in addition to showing a highly suggestive association between vitamin D3 supplementation and reduced severity and mortality among infected patients.
RESUMEN
Different peripheral blood parameters have emerged as prognostic biomarkers in breast cancer (BC), but their predictive role in Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 positive (HER2+) advanced BC (aBC) patients receiving dual anti-HER2 blockade remains unclear. We evaluated the impact of the Pan-Immune-Inflammatory Value (PIV), defined as the product of peripheral blood neutrophil, platelet, and monocyte counts divided by lymphocyte counts, on the prognosis of HER2+ aBC patients treated with first line trastuzumab-pertuzumab-based biochemotherapy. We also evaluated the association between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and the monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and clinical outcomes. Cox regression models were used to estimate the impact of these variables, as well as of other clinically relevant covariates, on patient survival. We included 57 HER2+ aBC patients treated with taxane-trastuzumab-pertuzumab in our Institution. High baseline MLR, PLR, and PIV were similarly predictive of worse PFS at univariate analysis, but only high PIV was associated with a trend toward worse PFS at multivariable analysis. Regarding OS, both high PIV and MLR were associated with significantly worse patient survival at univariate analysis, but only the PIV was statistically significantly associated with worse overall survival at multivariable analysis (HR 7.96; 95% CI: 2.18-29.09). Our study reveals the PIV as a new and potent predictor of OS in HER2+ aBC patients treated with first line trastuzumab-pertuzumab-containing biochemotherapy. Prospective studies are needed to validate this new prognostic parameter in HER2+ aBC.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: The mTOR complex C1 (mTORC1) inhibitor everolimus in combination with the aromatase inhibitor exemestane is an effective treatment for patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2-), advanced breast cancer (HR+/HER2- aBC). However, everolimus can cause hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia, which could reactivate the PI3K/protein kinase B (AKT)/mTORC1 pathway and induce tumor resistance to everolimus. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We conducted a multicenter, retrospective, Italian study to investigate the impact of baseline and on-treatment (i.e., during first 3 months of therapy) blood glucose levels on progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with HR+/HER2- aBC treated with everolimus-exemestane. RESULTS: We evaluated 809 patients with HR+/HER2- aBC treated with everolimus-exemestane as any line of therapy for advanced disease. When evaluated as dichotomous variables, baseline and on-treatment glycemia were not significantly associated with PFS. However, when blood glucose concentration was evaluated as a continuous variable, a multivariable model accounting for clinically relevant patient- and tumor-related variables revealed that both baseline and on-treatment glycemia are associated with PFS, and this association is largely attributable to their interaction. In particular, patients who are normoglycemic at baseline and experience on-treatment diabetes have lower PFS compared with patients who are already hyperglycemic at baseline and experience diabetes during everolimus-exemestane therapy (median PFS, 6.34 vs. 10.32 months; HR, 1.76; 95% confidence interval, 1.15-2.69; P = 0.008). CONCLUSIONS: The impact of on-treatment glycemia on the efficacy of everolimus-exemestane therapy in patients with HR+/HER2- aBC depends on baseline glycemia. This study lays the foundations for investigating novel therapeutic approaches to target the glucose/insulin axis in combination with PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 inhibitors in patients with HR+/HER2- aBC.

We hypothesized that the secretion of inflammatory mediators from synoviocytes affects the chondrocyte homeostasis of articular cartilage. This study was a preliminary attempt to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which soluble mediators obtained from activated synoviocytes induce oxidative stress and inflammation in chondrocytes. We measured the concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), nerve growth factor (NGF), superoxide anion (O2â¢-), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and nitric oxide (NOâ¢) from articular human cells. First, we created a conditional basal medium by exposing synoviocytes (HS) to monosodium urate crystals (CBM). The chondrocytes were exposed to either CBM (CCM), urate crystals directly (CMSU), or remained untreated (CC) as a negative control. Data were analyzed by ANOVA tests; Bonferroni test was performed for multiple comparisons between groups. Interestingly, we observed that mediators of inflammation and oxidative stress were significantly higher in CCM than CMSU and CC groups (P<0.01). The specific concentrations were as follows: 19.85 ng/mL of IL-6, 9.79 ng/mL of IL-8, 5.17 ng/mL of NGF, and 11.91 ng/mL of MCP-1. Of note, we observed the same trend for reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (P<0.001). Soluble mediators secreted by synoviocytes after being activated with MSU crystals (as observed in individuals who present gout attacks) trigger chondrocyte activation intensifying the articular inflammatory, oxidative, and pain states that damage cartilage in OA; this damage is more severe even when compared to HC directly exposed to monosodium urate crystals. Key Points ⢠The molecular relation between MSU depositions and cartilage damage could be mediated by pro-inflammatory soluble mediators and oxidative molecules. ⢠The secretion of pro-inflammatory mediators by activated synoviocytes is more harmful to chondrocytes than a direct activation in the chondrocyte culture. ⢠Under this model, there is an important imbalance in the matrix homeostasis due to changes in several chemokines, cytokines, and other factors such as NGF, as well as oxidative mediators.

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant anthracycline-taxane-based chemotherapy (ChT) is a standard of care treatment option for stage II-III breast cancer (BC) patients. However, the optimal duration of neoadjuvant ChT has been poorly investigated so far. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We retrospectively retrieved clinical data of patients with stage II-III human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) BC who were treated between October 2007 and January 2018 with neoadjuvant AT (doxorubicin-paclitaxel) for three cycles followed by CMF (cyclophosphamide-methotrexate-5-fluorouracil) for three cycles (cohort A) or with four AT cycles followed by four CMF cycles (cohort B). The aim of our study was to investigate the impact of neoadjuvant ChT duration (cohort A versus cohort B) on pathological complete response (pCR) rates, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Of 209 HER2- BC patients included, 62 had triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and 147 had hormone receptor-positive (HR+) BC. Median age was 48 years (range 30-74 years). A total of 111 patients belonged to cohort A and 98 patients belonged to cohort B. pCR was detected in 29 (13.9%) patients, 25 (40.3%) of whom had TNBC and four (2.7%) had HR+ HER2- BC. Patients achieving pCR had significantly longer DFS and OS, with statistical significance reached only in patients with TNBC. We found no differences between cohort A and cohort B in terms of pCR rates (15.3% versus 12.2%; p = 0.55), DFS (p = 0.49) or OS (p = 0.94). The incidence of grade 3/4 adverse events was similar in cohort A versus cohort B as well (22.5% versus 19.4%; p = 0.54). CONCLUSION: Shorter duration of neoadjuvant anthracycline-taxane ChT was not associated with worse clinical outcomes in patients with stage II-III BC. Prospective studies are needed to evaluate whether the duration of neoadjuvant anthracycline-taxane-based ChT can be reduced in specific patient subgroups without negatively affecting clinical outcomes.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Obesity and insulin resistance have been associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer (BC). The present prospective study aimed to investigate the impact of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components on early BC (eBC) patients' outcome. METHODS: MetS was defined by the presence of 3 to 5 of the following components: waist circumference > 88 cm, blood pressure ≥ 130/≥ 85 mmHg, serum levels of triglycerides ≥ 150 mg/dL, high density lipoprotein < 50 mg/dL and fasting glucose ≥ 110 mg/dL. Seven hundred and seventeen patients with data on ≥ 4 MetS components at BC diagnosis were enrolled. Study population was divided into two groups: patients with < 3 (non-MetS) vs. ≥ 3 components (MetS). Categorical variables were analyzed by Chi-square test and survival data by log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards regression model. RESULTS: Overall, 544 (75.9%) and 173 (24.1%) women were categorized as non-MetS and MetS, respectively. MetS patients were more likely to be older, postmenopausal, and insulin-resistant compared to non-MetS patients (p < 0.05). In multivariate analysis, MetS patients had a numerically higher risk of relapse [disease-free survival (DFS), hazard ratio (HR) 1.51, p = 0.07] and a significantly higher risk of death compared to non-MetS patients [overall survival (OS), HR 3.01, p < 0.0001; breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS), HR 3.16, p = 0.001]. Additionally, patients with 1 to 2 components of MetS had an increased risk of dying compared to patients with 0 components (OS, HR 4.90, p = 0.01; BCSS, HR 6.07, p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS: MetS correlated with poor outcome in eBC patients. Among patients without full criteria for MetS diagnosis, the presence of 1 or 2 components of the syndrome may predict for worse survival.

BACKGROUND: The PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 axis is implicated in hormone receptor-positive HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer (HR+ HER2- mBC) resistance to anti-estrogen treatments. Based on results of the BOLERO-2 trial, the mTORC1 inhibitor everolimus in combination with the steroidal aromatase inhibitor (AI) exemestane has become a standard treatment for patients with HR+ HER2- mBC resistant to prior non-steroidal AI therapy. In the recent SOLAR-1 trial, the inhibitor of the PI3K alpha subunit (p110α) alpelisib in combination with fulvestrant prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) when compared to fulvestrant alone in patients with PIK3CA-mutated HR+ HER2- mBC that progressed after/on previous AI treatment. Therefore, two different molecules targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTORC1 axis, namely everolimus and alpelisib, are available for patients progressing on/after previous AI treatment, but it is unclear how to optimize their use in the clinical practice. Here, we reviewed the available clinical evidence deriving from the BOLERO-2 and SOLAR-1 trials to compare efficacy and safety profiles of everolimus and alpelisib in advanced HR+ HER2- BC treatment. Adding either compound to standard endocrine therapy provided similar absolute and relative PFS advantage. In the SOLAR-1 trial, a 76% incidence of grade (G) 3 or 4 (G3/G4) adverse events was reported, while G3/G4 toxicities occurred in 42% of patients in the BOLERO-2 trial. While alpelisib was only effective in patients with PIK3CA-mutated neoplasms, retrospective analyses indicate that everolimus improves exemestane efficacy independently of PIK3CA mutational status. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the available efficacy and safety data, the "new" alpelisib may be burdened by higher incidence of severe adverse events, higher costs, and anticancer efficacy that is limited to PIK3CA-mutated tumors when compared to the "old" everolimus. Therefore, the everolimus-exemestane combination remains an effective and reasonably well-tolerated therapeutic option for HR+ HER2- mBC patients progressing after/on previous AI treatment, independently of PIK3CA mutational status.

Palbociclib is a potent cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4/6 inhibitor that disrupts cell cycle progression and has been recently approved in combination with an aromatase inhibitor or fulvestrant as first- and second-line treatment in hormone receptor (HR)+, human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER)2- metastatic breast cancer. There is evidence that palbociclib may reverse endocrine therapy resistance and that it may also be added to ongoing endocrine therapy beyond progression to obtain clinical benefit. The aim of the present study was to explore this possibility in 5 patients who received palbociclib + fulvestrant following disease progression while under treatment with fulvestrant alone. The median progression-free survival was not reached during a median follow-up of 25 months, and the most frequent best response was stable disease. Three patients remained under treatment on the last re-evaluation. All patients had highly endocrine-sensitive disease and had previously received fulvestrant for ≥12 months. The hypothesis that a selected subpopulation of patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer may benefit from the addition of palbociclib to ongoing endocrine therapy beyond disease progression merits further investigation.
RESUMEN
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors, namely abemaciclib, palbociclib, and ribociclib, interfere with cell cycle progression, induce cell senescence and might promote cancer cell disruption by a cytotoxic T cells-mediated effect. Phase III randomized clinical trials have proven that CDK4/6 inhibitors (CDK4/6i) in combination with several endocrine agents improve treatment efficacy over endocrine agents alone for hormone receptor positive (HR+) HER2 negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Based on such results, these combinations have been approved for clinical use. Preclinical studies in cell cultures and mouse models proved that CDK4/6i are active against a broad spectrum of solid tumors other than breast cancer, including liposarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma multiforme, esophageal cancer, and melanoma. The role of CDK4/6i in monotherapy in several solid tumors is currently under evaluation in phase I, II, and III trials. Nowadays, abemaciclib is the only of the three inhibitors that has received approval as single agent therapy for pretreated HR+ HER2- MBC. Here we review biological, preclinical and clinical data on the role of CDK4/6 inhibitors as single agents in advanced solid tumors.
