RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is a highly lethal disease characterized by a spatially heterogeneous tumor microenvironment. Within the PDA microenvironment, cells organize into communities where cell fate is influenced by neighboring cells of diverse ontogeny and function. However, it remains unclear how cell neighborhoods in the tumor microenvironment evolve with treatment and impact clinical outcomes. METHODS: Here, using automated chromogenic multiplex immunohistochemistry and unsupervised computational image analysis of human PDA tumors, we investigated cell neighborhoods in surgically resected tumors from patients with chemotherapy-naïve PDA (n = 59) and neoadjuvant chemotherapy-treated PDA (n = 57). Single cells were defined by lineage markers (CD3, CD8, Foxp3, CD68, CK19), proliferation (Ki67), and neighboring cells. RESULTS: Distinct intratumoral immune and tumor cell subsets were defined by neighboring cells. Higher content of stromal-associated macrophages was seen in chemotherapy-naïve tumors from long-term survivors (overall survival >3 years) compared with short-term survivors (overall survival <1 year), whereas immune-excluded tumor cells were higher in short-term survivors. Chemotherapy-treated vs -naïve tumors showed lower content of tumor-associated T cells and macrophages but similar densities of stromal-associated immune cells. However, proliferating tumor cell subsets with immune-rich neighborhoods were higher in chemotherapy-treated tumors. In a blinded analysis of tumors from patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, a composite index comprising lower quantities of immune-excluded tumor cells and higher spatially distinct immune cell subsets was associated with prolonged survival. CONCLUSIONS: Together, these data provide new insights into discrete cell communities in PDA and show their clinical relevance.

RESUMO

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is an aggressive disease marked by high rates of both local and distant failure. In the minority of patients with potentially resectable disease, multimodal treatment paradigms have allowed for prolonged survival in an increasingly larger pool of well-selected patients. Therefore, it is critical for surgical oncologists to be abreast of current guideline recommendations for both surgical management and multimodal therapy for pancreas cancer. We discuss these guidelines, as well as the underlying data supporting these positions, to offer surgical oncologists a framework for managing patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative adverse events (AEs) in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (BR-PC) treated with neoadjuvant therapy and pancreatectomy in the national cooperative group setting have not been previously characterized. We conducted a preplanned secondary analysis of patients enrolled on the Alliance A021501 clinical trial to quantify perioperative AE rates. METHODS: The A021501 phase 2 trial randomized patients with BR-PC to receive 8 doses of mFOLFIRINOX (Arm 1) or 7 doses of mFOLFIRINOX and hypofractionated radiotherapy (Arm 2), followed by pancreatectomy (December 31, 2016 to May 31, 2019). Adverse events were assessed 90 days after pancreatectomy. RESULTS: Of 126 enrolled patients, 51 (40%) underwent pancreatectomy (n = 32, Arm 1; n = 19, Arm 2) at 28 institutions. Five (10%) patients required reoperation within 90 days; 56% of patients (n = 27/48) experienced at least one grade 3 or higher AE (50% vs. 67%, p = 0.37). Ninety-day mortality was 2.0%. Readmission was less frequent in Arm 1 (16% vs. 42%, p = 0.05), but there were no differences between study arms in rates of reoperation (13% vs. 5%), pancreatic fistula or intra-abdominal abscess requiring drainage (9% vs. 16%), or wound infection (6% vs. 16%). Pancreatic fistula or intra-abdominal abscess requiring drainage was associated with receipt of adjuvant therapy (p = 0.012). No difference in overall survival was observed based on occurrence of postoperative AEs (hazard ratio = 1.1; 95% confidence interval 0.5-2.6). CONCLUSIONS: In this multicenter study, rates of postoperative AEs were consistent with those previously reported. Multimodality trials of preoperative therapy for BR-PC may be performed in the cooperative group setting with careful quality assurance and safety monitoring. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT02839343.

RESUMO

Social media has become omnipresent in society, especially given that it enables the rapid and widespread communication of news, events, and information. Social media platforms have become increasingly used by numerous surgical societies to promote meetings and surgical journals to increase the visibility of published content. In September 2020, Annals of Surgical Oncology (ASO) established its Social Media Committee (SMC), which has worked to steadily increase the visibility of published content on social media platforms, namely X (formerly known as Twitter). The purpose of this review is to highlight the 10 ASO original articles with the most engagement on X, based on total number of mentions, since the founding of the SMC. These articles encompass a wide variety of topics from various oncologic disciplines including hepatopancreatobiliary, breast, and gynecologic surgery.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Surgery followed by pathology-guided adjuvant therapy is standard treatment for colon cancer. Data from the FOxTROT clinical trial showed potential benefit of a 6-wk neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in T3/T4 patients. The present study evaluated real-world outcomes of neoadjuvant therapy in a national cohort of patients with resectable colon cancer. METHODS: 169,120 patients with clinical stage I, II, or III colon cancer from the National Cancer Database registry were included. Patients were categorized as having received neoadjuvant therapy followed by surgery (NACT), surgery then adjuvant chemotherapy (AC), or surgery alone. Factors associated with treatment sequencing and outcomes were assessed. RESULTS: Of identified patients, 1.4% received NACT including 0.5% of stage I, 1.8% of stage II, and 3.0% of stage III. For stage I, 5-y overall survival (OS) was 74.7% after AC, 62.2% after NACT, and 76.4% after SA. For stage II, 5-y OS was 73.2% after AC, 66.8% after NACT, and 64.3% after SA. For stage III, 5-y OS was 67.3% after AC, 67.7% after NACT, and 42.4% after SA. Cox proportional-hazards model suggested NACT had worse outcomes versus AC in clinical stages I (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.59, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.39-1.85, P < 0.01) and II (HR = 1.37, 95% CI 1.23-1.52, P < 0.01). In stage III, there was no difference in OS between NACT and AC (HR = 1.1, 95% CI 0.99-1.22, P = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In a real-world national cohort of patients with resectable colon cancer, NACT had no OS benefit over AC. Future studies should examine which subset of patients might benefit from neoadjuvant approaches.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Grade-C postoperative pancreatic fistulas (POPFs) are dreaded complications following pancreaticoduodenectomy. The aim of this study was to quantify the incidence and risk factors associated with grade C POPF in a national database. METHODS: The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program targeted user files were queried for patients who underwent elective pancreaticoduodenectomy (2014-2020). Outcomes were compared between clinically relevant (CR) grade B POPF and grade C POPF. RESULTS: Twenty-six thousand five hundred fifty-two patients were included, of which 90.1% (n = 23,714) had No CR POPF, 8.7% (n = 2287) suffered grade B POPF, and 1.2% (n = 327) suffered grade C POPF. There was no change in the rate Grade-C fistula overtime (m = 0.06, P = 0.63), while the rate of Grade-B fistula significantly increased (m = +1.40, P < 0.01). Fistula Risk Scores were similar between grade B and C POPFs (high risk: 34.9% versus 31.2%, P = 0.21). Associated morbidity was increased with grade C POPF, including delayed gastric emptying, organ space infections, wound dehiscence, respiratory complications, renal complications, myocardial infarction, and bleeding. On multivariate logistic regression, diabetes mellitus (odds ratio: 1.41 95% confidence interval: 1.06-1.87, P = 0.02) was associated with grade C POPF. CONCLUSIONS: This study represents the largest contemporary series evaluating grade C POPFs. Of those suffering CR POPF, the presence of diabetes mellitus was associated with grade C POPF. While modern management has led to grade C POPF in 1% of cases, they remain associated with alarmingly high morbidity and mortality, requiring further mitigation strategies to improve outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In patients with localized pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergoing neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) and resection, selection of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) is typically guided by high-risk features on histopathologic examination. We evaluated the interaction between post-NAT lymph node metrics and AC receipt on survival. METHODS: Patients who received NAT followed by pancreatectomy (2010-2020) at seven centers were reviewed. Overall survival (OS) in patients receiving AC or not was stratified by lymph node positivity (LNP) or lymph node ratio (LNR) dichotomized at 0.1. Cox models evaluated the independent association between these nodal metrics, AC receipt, and OS. RESULTS: Of 464 patients undergoing NAT and resection, 264 (57%) received AC. Patients selected for AC were younger (median 63 vs. 67 years; p < 0.001), received shorter duration of NAT (2.8 vs. 3.2 months; p = 0.01), had fewer postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade > 3: 1.2% vs. 11.7%; p < 0.001), and lower rates of pathologic complete response (4% vs. 11%; p = 0.01). The median number of nodes evaluated was similar between cohorts (n = 20 in both; p = 0.9). Post-NAT LNP rates were not different, and median LNR was 0.1, in AC and non-AC cohorts. Both LNP (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.1, p < 0.001) and LNR (0 < LNR ≤ 0.1: HR: 1.98, p = 0.002; LNR > 0.1: HR 2.46, p < 0.001) were independently associated with OS on Cox modeling, although receipt of AC was not associated with improved OS (median 30.6 vs. 29.4 months; p = 0.2). In patients with LNR > 0.1, receipt of AC was associated with significantly longer OS compared to non-AC (24 vs. 20 months, respectively; p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS: LNR following NAT, not simply nodal positivity, may be useful to refine selection of AC in resected PDAC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) is a safe and efficacious procedure in appropriately selected patients, though frequently with increased operative times compared to open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD). METHODS: From 2014 to 2019, patients who underwent elective, low-risk, RPDs and OPDs in the NSQIP database were isolated. The operative time threshold (OTT) for safety in RPD patients was estimated by identifying the operative time at which complication rates for RPD patients exceeded the complication rate of the benchmark OPD control. RESULTS: Of 6270 patients identified, 939 (15%) underwent RPD and 5331 (85%) underwent OPD. The incidence of major morbidity or mortality for the OPD cohort was 35.1%. The OTT was identified as 7.7 h. Patients whose RPDs were above the OTT experienced a higher incidence of major morbidity (42.5% vs. 35.0%, p < 0.01) and 30-day mortality (2.7% vs. 1.2%, p = 0.03) than the OPD cohort. Preoperative obstructive jaundice (OR: 1.47, [95% CI: 1.08-2.01]) and pancreatic duct size <3 mm (OR: 2.44, [95% CI: 1.47-4.06]) and 3-6 mm (OR: 2.15, [95% CI: 1.31-3.52]) were risk factors for prolonged RPDs on multivariable regression. CONCLUSION: The operative time threshold for safety, identified at 7.7 h, should be used to improve patient selection for RPDs and as a competency-based quality benchmark.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: SWOG 0809 is the only prospective study of adjuvant chemotherapy followed by chemoradiation focusing on margin status in patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC) and gallbladder cancer (GBCA); however, the effects of adjuvant therapy by nodal status have never been reported in this population. METHODS: Patients with resected EHCC and GBCA, stage pT2-4, node-positive (N+) or margin-positive (R1) who completed four cycles of chemotherapy followed by radiotherapy were included. Cox regression was used to compare overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), local recurrence, and distant metastasis by nodal status. DFS rates were compared with historical data via a one-sample t-test. RESULTS: Sixty-nine patients [EHCC, n = 46 (66%); GBCA, n = 23 (33%)] were evaluated, with a median age of 61.7 years and an R0 rate of 66.7% and R1 rate of 33.3%. EHCC versus GBCA was more likely to be N+ (73.9% vs. 47.8%, p = 0.03). Nodal status did not significantly impact OS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.98, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.86-4.54, p = 0.11) or DFS (HR 1.63, 95% CI 0.77-3.44, p = 0.20). Two-year OS was 70.6% for node-negative (N0) disease and 60.9% for N+ disease, while 2-year DFS was 62.5% for N0 tumors and 49.8% for N+ tumors. N+ versus N0 tumors showed higher rates of distant failure (42.2% vs. 25.0%, p = 0.04). The 2-year DFS rate in N+ tumors was significantly higher than in historical controls (49.8% vs. 29.7%, p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: Adjuvant therapy is associated with favorable outcome independent of nodal status and may impact local control in N+ patients. These data could serve as a benchmark for future adjuvant trials, including molecular-targeted agents.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Major pathologic response (MPR) following neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients undergoing resection is associated with improved survival. We sought to determine whether racial disparities exist in MPR rates following NAT in patients with PDAC undergoing resection. METHODS: Patients with potentially operable PDAC receiving at least 2 cycles of neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel ± radiation followed by pancreatectomy (2010-2019) at 7 high-volume centers were reviewed. Self-reported race was dichotomized as Black and non-Black, and multivariable models evaluated the association between race and MPR (i.e., pathologic complete response [pCR] or near-pCR). Cox regression evaluated the association between race and disease-free (DFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS: Results of 486 patients who underwent resection following NAT (mFOLFIRINOX 56%, gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel 25%, radiation 29%), 67 (13.8%) patients were Black. Black patients had lower CA19-9 at diagnosis (median 67 vs. 204 U/mL; P = 0.003) and were more likely to undergo mild/moderate chemotherapy dose modification (40 vs. 20%; P = 0.005) versus non-Black patients. Black patients had significantly lower rates of MPR compared with non-Black patients (13.4 vs. 25.8%; P = 0.039). Black race was independently associated with worse MPR (OR 0.26, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.10-0.69) while controlling for NAT duration, CA19-9 dynamics, and chemotherapy modifications. There was no significant difference in DFS or OS between Black and non-Black cohorts. CONCLUSIONS: Black patients undergoing pancreatectomy appear less likely to experience MPR following NAT. The contribution of biologic and nonbiologic factors to reduced chemosensitivity in Black patients warrants further investigation.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cancer often presents as locally advanced (LAPC) or borderline resectable (BRPC). Neoadjuvant systemic therapy is recommended as initial treatment. It is currently unclear what chemotherapy should be preferred for patients with BRPC or LAPC. METHODS: We performed a systematic review and multi-institutional meta-analysis of patient-level data regarding the use of initial systemic therapy for BRPC and LAPC. Outcomes were reported separately for tumor entity and by chemotherapy regimen including FOLFIRINOX (FIO) or gemcitabine-based. RESULTS: A total of 23 studies comprising 2930 patients were analyzed for overall survival (OS) calculated from the beginning of systemic treatment. OS for patients with BRPC was 22.0 months with FIO, 16.9 months with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (Gem/nab), 21.6 months with gemcitabine/cisplatin or oxaliplatin or docetaxel or capecitabine (GemX), and 10 months with gemcitabine monotherapy (Gem-mono) (p < 0.0001). In patients with LAPC, OS also was higher with FIO (17.1 months) compared with Gem/nab (12.5 months), GemX (12.3 months), and Gem-mono (9.4 months; p < 0.0001). This difference was driven by the patients who did not undergo surgery, where FIO was superior to other regimens. The resection rates for patients with BRPC were 0.55 for gemcitabine-based chemotherapy and 0.53 with FIO. In patients with LAPC, resection rates were 0.19 with Gemcitabine and 0.28 with FIO. In resected patients, OS for patients with BRPC was 32.9 months with FIO and not different compared to Gem/nab, (28.6 months, p = 0.285), GemX (38.8 months, p = 0.1), or Gem-mono (23.1 months, p = 0.083). A similar trend was observed in resected patients converted from LAPC. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with BRPC or LAPC, primary treatment with FOLFIRINOX compared with Gemcitabine-based chemotherapy appears to provide a survival benefit for patients that are ultimately unresectable. For patients that undergo surgical resection, outcomes are similar between GEM+ and FOLFIRINOX when delivered in the neoadjuvant setting.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: T2 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is defined as a solitary tumors with vascular invasion or multifocal tumors including satellite lesions, multiple lesions, and intrahepatic metastases. This study aimed to evaluate the prognosis associated with multifocal tumors. METHODS: The National Cancer Database was queried from 2004 to 2017 for patients with non-metastatic ICC. The patients were grouped based on T2 staging, multifocality, and lymph node involvement. RESULTS: The study enrolled and classified 4887 patients into clinical (c) stage groups as follows: 15.2% with solitary T2N0 (sT2N0) tumors, 21.3% with multifocal T2N0 (mT2N0) tumors, and 63.5% with node-positive (TxN1) disease. Patients with (c)sT2N0 tumors had higher rates of surgical resection than those with (c)mT2N0 or (c)TxN1 disease (33.5% vs 19.7% vs 15.0%; p < 0.01). Median overall survival (OS) was better for the patients with (c)sT2N0 tumors than for those with multifocal and node-positive disease (15.4 vs 10.4 vs 10.4 months; p < 0.01). On multivariate analysis, (c)sT2N0 tumors were associated with better OS than (c)mT2N0 tumors [hazard ratio (HR), 1.31; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.17-1.46; p < 0.01] or (c)TxN1 disease (HR,1.41; 95% CI 1.28-1.56; p < 0.01). In a subset analysis based on pathologic (p) staging of patients who underwent surgical resection with regional lymphadenectomy, multivariate analysis demonstrated that (p)sT2N0 tumors were associated with better OS than (p)mT2N0 tumors (HR,1.40; 95% CI 1.03-1.92; p = 0.03) or (p)TxN1 disease (HR, 2.05; 95% CI 1.62-2.58; p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Multifocal T2N0 ICC is associated with poor OS and has a disparate prognosis compared with solitary T2N0 disease, even among patients who undergo resection. Future staging criteria should account for the poor outcomes associated with multifocal ICC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The role of systemic therapy for Stage IA pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is unclear. The aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) on survival in patients with early stage disease. METHODS: The National Cancer Database was queried from 2006 to 2017 for resected pT1N0M0 (Stage 1A) PDAC. Exclusion criteria included neoadjuvant therapy, radiation, or those who suffered a 90-day mortality. RESULTS: Of the 1526 patients included in the study, 42.2% received AC and 57.8% underwent surgery alone. Patients who received AC were younger, had fewer comorbidities, and were more likely to have private insurance, compared with those treated with surgery alone. Patients who received AC had longer median overall survival (OS) compared with those who underwent surgery alone (105.7 months vs 72.0 months, p < 0.01). Subset analyses based on individual "good" prognostic features (size ≤ 1.0 cm, lymphovascular invasion negative, well/moderately differentiated, margin negative resection) demonstrated improved OS with AC. Following propensity score matching based on key clinicopathologic features, AC remained associated with improved median OS (83.7 months vs 59.8 months, p < 0.01). However, in the cohort with body/tail tumors (101.2 months vs 95.0 months, p = 0.19) and those with all "good" prognostic features (95.9 months vs 90.6 months, p = 0.15), AC was not associated with improved survival. CONCLUSIONS: In resected, Stage IA PDAC, AC is associated with improved overall survival in the vast majority of patients; however, in select cohorts the role of AC is unclear. Further study is needed to tailor treatment to individual patients with PDAC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Systemic therapy is an essential part of treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, not all patients receive every cycle of chemotherapy and even if they do, the impact of reduced dose density (DD) on survival is not known. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A single institutional prospective database was queried for patients with PDAC who underwent curative resection between 2009 and 2018. The primary outcome was DD, defined as the percentage of total planned chemotherapy actually received and associated survival. RESULTS: Of the 126 patients included, 38.9% underwent a neoadjuvant approach, which was associated with a greater median number of completed chemotherapy cycles (5 cycles versus 4 cycles, p < 0.01) and a higher median total DD (93.0% versus 65.0%, p < 0.01), compared with an adjuvant treatment approach. In both groups, adjuvant chemotherapy completion rates were low, with only 55 patients completing all adjuvant cycles. After sequential survival analysis, patients who received a DD ≥ 80% had improved median overall survival (OS) (27.1 months versus 18.6 months, p = 0.01), compared with patients who achieved a DD < 80%. On multivariate Cox proportional-hazards modeling, only the presence of lymphovascular invasion (HR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.04-2.99, p = 0.04) and DD < 80% (HR: 1.91, 95% CI: 1.23-3.00, p = 0.01) were associated with decreased OS. CONCLUSIONS: In this cohort study, patients who received ≥ 80% DD had significantly better OS. DD should be considered an important prognostic metric in pancreatic cancer, and strategies are needed to improve chemotherapy tolerance to improve patient outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Data regarding the survival impact of converting frozen-section (FS):R1 pancreatic neck margins to permanent section (PS):R0 by additional resection (i.e., converted-R0) during upfront pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are conflicting. The impact of neoadjuvant therapy on this practice and its relationship with overall survival (OS) is incompletely understood. METHODS: We reviewed PDAC patients (80% borderline resectable/locally advanced [BR/LA]) undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy after neoadjuvant therapy at seven, academic, high-volume centers (2010-2018). Multivariable models examined the association of PS:R0, PS:R1, and converted-R0 margins with OS. RESULTS: Of 272 patients receiving at least 2 (median 4) cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (71% mFOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel) and undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy with intraoperative frozen-section assessment of the transected pancreatic neck margin, PS:R0 (n = 220, 80.9%) was observed in a majority of patients; 18 patients (6.6%) had converted-R0 margins following additional resection, whereas 34 patients (12.5%) had persistently positive PS:R1 margins. At a median follow-up of 42 months, PS:R0 resection was associated with improved OS compared with either converted-R0 or PS:R1 resection (median 25 vs. 14 vs. 16 months, respectively; p = 0.023), with no survival difference between the converted-R0 and PS:R1 groups (p = 0.9). On Cox regression, SMA margin positivity (hazard ratio 2.2, p = 0.012), but not neck margin positivity (hazard ratio 1.2, p = 0.65), was associated with worse OS. CONCLUSIONS: In this multi-institutional cohort of predominantly BR/LA PDAC patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy following modern neoadjuvant therapy, pursuing a negative neck margin intraoperatively if the initial margin is positive does not appear to be associated with improved survival.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The aim of our study was to evaluate the rates of treatment for post-operative exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) and diabetes mellites (DM) between Duodenal Preserving Pancreatic Head Resections (DPPHR) and Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) from a prospectively maintained database of patients with chronic pancreatitis. METHODS: 104 patients were identified for inclusion, 62 of whom underwent DPPHR and 42 underwent PD. Study endpoints included changes in treatment for EPI and DM. RESULTS: In the DPPHR group, the vast majority (n = 55) received a Frey procedure, with a small minority of patients undergoing a Beger procedure (n = 4) or Berne modification (n = 3). Patients in the DPPHR group had a lower rate of new persistent treatment for EPI post-operatively compared to patients who underwent PD (28.0% vs. 76.5%, p = 0.002). There was no difference in the rate of new onset DM, with low rates of new insulin dependent diabetics in both groups. Both groups had equal efficacy in terms of pain control, with 67.7% of the DPPHR group and 61.9% of the PD group remaining opioid free at long-term follow-up (p = 0.539). CONCLUSION: In patients with head-predominant chronic pancreatitis, DPPHR was associated with reduced rates of new EPI treatment and similar endocrine function compared with PD.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Total pancreatectomy and islet cell autotransplantation (TPIAT) offers an effective, lasting solution for the management of chronic pancreatitis up to 5-years post-operatively. Our aim was to assess durability of TPIAT at 10-years. METHODS: Patients undergoing TPIAT for chronic pancreatitis eligible for 10-year follow-up were included. Primary outcomes, including endocrine function and narcotic requirements, were reported at 5-, 7.5-, and 10-years post-operatively. RESULTS: Of the 231 patients who underwent TPIAT, 142 met inclusion criteria. All patients underwent successful TPIAT with an average of 5680.3 islet equivalents per body weight. While insulin independence tended to decrease over time (25.7% vs. 16.0% vs. 10.9%, p = 0.11) with an increase in HbA1C (7.6% vs. 8.2% vs. 8.4%, p = 0.09), partial islet function persisted (64.9% vs. 68.0% vs. 67.4%, p = 0.93). Opioid independence was achieved and remained durable in the majority (73.3% vs. 72.2% vs. 75.5%, p = 0.93). Quality of life improvements persisted, with 85% reporting improvement from baseline at 10-years. Estimated median overall survival was 202.7 months. CONCLUSION: This study represents one of the largest series reporting on long-term outcomes after TPIAT, demonstrating excellent long-term pain control and durable improvements in quality of life. Islet cell function declines over time however stable glycemic control is maintained.

RESUMO

Sphingosine has been shown to prevent and eliminate bacterial infections of the respiratory tract, but it is unknown whether sphingosine can be also employed to prevent viral infections. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed whether sphingosine regulates the infection of cultured and freshly isolated ex vivo human epithelial cells with pseudoviral particles expressing SARS-CoV-2 spike (pp-VSV-SARS-CoV-2 spike) that served as a bona fide system mimicking SARS-CoV-2 infection. We demonstrate that exogenously applied sphingosine suspended in 0.9% NaCl prevents cellular infection with pp-SARS-CoV-2 spike. Pretreatment of cultured Vero epithelial cells or freshly isolated human nasal epithelial cells with low concentrations of sphingosine prevented adhesion of and infection with pp-VSV-SARS-CoV-2 spike. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that sphingosine binds to ACE2, the cellular receptor of SARS-CoV-2, and prevents the interaction of the receptor-binding domain of the viral spike protein with ACE2. These data indicate that sphingosine prevents at least some viral infections by interfering with the interaction of the virus with its receptor. Our data also suggest that further preclinical and finally clinical examination of sphingosine is warranted for potential use as a prophylactic or early treatment for coronavirus disease-19.

RESUMO

Previous studies have shown that sphingosine kills a variety of pathogenic bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus Sphingosine concentrations are decreased in airway epithelial cells of cystic fibrosis (CF) mice, and this defect has been linked to the infection susceptibility of these mice. Here, we tested whether the genetic overexpression of acid ceramidase rescues cystic fibrosis mice from pulmonary infections with P. aeruginosa We demonstrate that the transgenic overexpression of acid ceramidase in CF mice corresponds to the overexpression of acid ceramidase in bronchial and tracheal epithelial cells and normalizes ceramide and sphingosine levels in bronchial and tracheal epithelial cells. In addition, the expression of ß1-integrin, which is ectopically expressed on the luminal surface of airway epithelial cells in cystic fibrosis mice, an alteration that is very important for mediating pulmonary P. aeruginosa infections in cystic fibrosis, is normalized in cystic fibrosis airways upon the overexpression of acid ceramidase. Most importantly, the overexpression of acid ceramidase protects cystic fibrosis mice from pulmonary P. aeruginosa infections. Infection of CF mice or CF mice that inhaled sphingosine with P. aeruginosa or a P. aeruginosa mutant that is resistant to sphingosine indicates that sphingosine and not a metabolite kills P. aeruginosa upon pulmonary infection. These studies further support the use of acid ceramidase and its metabolite sphingosine as potential treatments of cystic fibrosis.

RESUMO

Several cytokines and chemokines are elevated after islet infusion in patients undergoing total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT), including CXCL8 (also known as interleukin-8), leading to islet loss. We investigated whether use of reparixin for blockade of the CXCL8 pathway would improve islet engraftment and insulin independence after TPIAT. Adults without diabetes scheduled for TPIAT at nine academic centers were randomized to a continuous infusion of reparixin or placebo (double-blinded) for 7 days in the peri-transplant period. Efficacy measures included insulin independence (primary), insulin dose, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c ), and mixed meal tolerance testing. The intent-to-treat population included 102 participants (age 39.5 ± 12.2 years, 69% female), n = 50 reparixin-treated, n = 52 placebo-treated. The proportion insulin-independent at Day 365 was similar in reparixin and placebo: 20% vs. 21% (p = .542). Twenty-seven of 42 (64.3%) in the reparixin group and 28/45 (62.2%) in the placebo group maintained HbA1c ≤6.5% (p = .842, Day 365). Area under the curve C-peptide from mixed meal testing was similar between groups, as were adverse events. In conclusion, reparixin infusion did not improve diabetes outcomes. CXCL8 inhibition alone may be insufficient to prevent islet damage from innate inflammation in islet autotransplantation. This first multicenter clinical trial in TPIAT highlights the potential for future multicenter collaborations.
