ABSTRACT

Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are highly accumulated in the tumor-surrounding stroma of primary epithelial ovarian cancer (OC). CAFs exert important functions for the vascularization, growth, and progression of OC cells. However, the origin of CAFs in primary OC had not yet been studied, and they were assumed to arise from the activation of resident fibroblasts. Here, we compared CAFs in the ovary to CAFs found in peritoneal metastases from patients with advanced OC. Our findings show that CAFs from primary tumors and peritoneal metastases share the expression of mesothelial markers. Therefore, similar to peritoneal carcinomatosis, CAFs in primary ovarian carcinomas may originate from mesothelial cells via a mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition. The detection of mesothelial-derived CAFs in tumors confined to the ovary and identification of biomarkers could be the key to the early detection of OC and peritoneal spread.

ABSTRACT

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer in women in Spain and its annual incidence is rapidly increasing. Thanks to the screening programs in place, nearly 90% of breast cancer cases are detected in early and potentially curable stages, despite the COVID-19 pandemic possibly having impacted these numbers (not yet quantified). In recent years, locoregional and systemic therapies are increasingly being directed by new diagnostic tools that have improved the balance between toxicity and clinical benefit. New therapeutic strategies, such as immunotherapy, targeted drugs, and antibody–drug conjugates have also improved outcomes in some patient subgroups. This clinical practice guideline is based on a systematic review of relevant studies and on the consensus of experts from GEICAM, SOLTI, and SEOM (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To study the correlation between radiologic response observed by late enhancement sequences in MRI and pathologic response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with breast cancer. Material and methods: Retrospective observational study of 132 patients with 136 tumors (4 with bilateral disease), treated consecutively with neoadjuvant chemotherapy at our institution between 2011 and 2017. In all cases, we performed 3 breast MRI's, using late enhancement gadolinium sequences: the first prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the second half way through treatment, and the third at the completion of therapy. Following treatment, contrast medium uptake in tumor bed was evaluated based on the Response Evaluation Criteria for Solid Tumors (RECIST). All patients underwent conservative or radical surgery. We compared the radiologic response estimated by MRI, with the pathologic response observed in the surgical specimen, according to Miller and Payne grading system. We calculated the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of the test, and used the Spearman correlation coefficient to stablish correlations between the parameters analyzed. Results: Complete pathologic response (pCR) was observed in 58.1% (79/136). The percentage of global radio-pathologic correlation was 88.97%. MRI showed a sensitivity of 78.9%, a specificity of 79.7%, a positive-predictive value (PPV) of 73.8% and a negative-predictive value (NPV) of 84%. In patients with partial response, the Spearman correlation was positive (rho = 1, P < .001). According to surrogate subtypes of breast cancer, we observed moderate correlation for luminal tumors (rho = 0.63, P < .001) and poor correlation for non-luminal types (rho = 0,4, P < .01). (AU)


Objetivos: Estudiar la correlación entre la respuesta radiológica observada mediante secuencias de realce tardío en resonancia magnética y la respuesta patológica después de quimioterapia neoadyuvante en pacientes con cáncer de mama. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional retrospectivo de 132 pacientes con 136 tumores (cuatro con enfermedad bilateral), tratados consecutivamente con quimioterapia neoadyuvante en nuestra Institución entre 2011 y 2017. En todos los casos se realizaron tres resonancias magnéticas de mama, utilizando secuencias de realce tardío de gadolinio: la primera antes de la quimioterapia neoadyuvante, la segunda a mitad del tratamiento y la tercera al finalizar la terapia. Después del tratamiento, la captación media de contraste en el lecho tumoral se evaluó en función de los Criterios de Evaluación de la Respuesta para Tumores Sólidos (RECIST). Todas las pacientes se sometieron a cirugía conservadora o radical. Comparamos la respuesta radiológica estimada por resonancia magnética, con la respuesta patológica observada en la pieza quirúrgica, valorada según clasificación de Miller y Payne. Se calcularon sensibilidad, especificidad, valores predictivos y correlacion de Spearman para establecer correlaciones entre los parametros analizados. Resultados: Se observó respuesta patológica completa (pCR) en el 58,1% (79/136). El porcentaje de correlación radiopatológica global fue del 88,97%. La RM mostró una sensibilidad del 78,9%, una especificidad del 79,7%, un valor predictivo positivo (VPP) del 73,8% y un valor predictivo negativo (VAN) del 84%. En pacientes con respuesta parcial, la correlación de Spearman fue positiva (rho = 1, p < 0,001). De acuerdo con los tipos subrogados de cáncer de mama, observamos una correlación moderada para los tumores luminales (rho = 0,63, p < 0,001) y una correlación deficiente para los tipos no luminales (rho = 0,4, p < 0,01).

ABSTRACT

Objective: To determine the impact of implementing strict treatment-selection criteria on the overall outcome of women with high-grade serous advanced stage ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma. Material and methods: We included patients treated for high-grade serous advanced stage ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma at our Institution from January 2007 to March 2015. All other non-serous, low-grade histology tumors and secondary cytoreductions were excluded. strict treatment-selection criteria was used to decide on primary cytoreductive surgery versus neoad-juvant chemotherapy and type of adjuvant therapy. Collected data included patient and tumor characteristics, preoperative diagnostic procedures, surgical treatment, perioperative complications, and neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapies. Appropriate statistical tests were used and survival analysis performed. Results: We identified 71 eligible patients. Mean age was 58.5 ± 11.8 years, 28.2% received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and 77.5% had optimal cytoreductive surgery to < 1 cm residual disease. Major complications were observed in 16.9% of women, with no significant difference between neoadjuvant chemotherapy and primary cytoreductive surgery groups. With a median follow-up of 35.7 months, median overall survival was not achieved and 57.2% of patients were alive 54 months after surgery. A total of 24 out of 71 (33.8%) died of disease, 11 (45.8%) within two years after surgery. Median progression-free survival was 19.5 months (95% CI 14.8-24.3). Conclusions: Applying strict treatment-selection criteria for patients with high-grade serous advanced stage ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma ensures few surgical complications and excellent survival rates for the majority of these women


Objetivo: determinar el impacto de la implementación de criterios estrictos de selección de tratamiento sobre el pronóstico de las mujeres con carcinoma seroso de ovario, trompa de Falopio o peritoneal primario en estadio avanzado y de alto grado. Material y métodos: entre enero de 2007 y marzo de 2015 se incluyeron pacientes tratadas por carcinoma ovárico seroso avanzado de alto grado, trompa de Falopio o carcinoma peritoneal primario en nuestro hospital. Se utilizaron criterios estrictos de selección de tratamiento para decidir sobre la cirugía citorreductora primaria versus quimioterapia neoadyuvante y el tipo de tratamiento adyuvante. Los datos recogidos incluyeron características del paciente y del tumor, procedimientos diagnósticos preoperatorios, tratamiento quirúrgico, complicaciones perioperatorias y quimioterapias neoadyuvantes y adyuvantes. Se utilizaron pruebas estadísticas adecuadas y se realizó un análisis de supervivencia. Resultados: se incluyeron 71 pacientes. La edad media fue de 58,5 ± 11,8 años, el 28,2% recibió quimioterapia neoadyuvante y el 77,5% tuvo una cirugía citorreductora óptima (< 1 cm de enfermedad residual). Se observaron complicaciones mayores en el 16,9% de las mujeres, sin diferencias significativas entre los grupos de quimioterapia neoadyuvante y de cirugía citorreductora primaria. Con una mediana de seguimiento de 35,7 meses, no se alcanzó la mediana de supervivencia global y el 57,2% de los pacientes estaban vivas 54 meses después de la cirugía. Un total de 24 de 71 (33.8%) murieron de enfermedad, 11 (45.8%) en los dos años después de la cirugía. La mediana de supervivencia libre de progresión fue de 19,5 meses (IC del 95%: 14,8-24,3). Conclusiones: la aplicación de criterios estrictos de selección de tratamiento para pacientes con carcinoma seroso ovárico, de trompa de Falopio o carcinoma peritoneal primario en estadio avanzado de alto grado asegura pocas complicaciones quirúrgicas y buenas tasas de supervivencia para la mayoría de estas pacientes

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: valorar la tasa de detección de ganglio centinela tras quimioterapia neoadyuvante en pacientes con cáncer infiltrante de mama y axila clínicamente negativa previa al tratamiento y analizar su supervivencia global y supervivencia libre de enfermedad. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: estudio observacional retrospectivo. Se incluyeron las pacientes con cáncer de mama tratadas con quimioterapia neoadyuvante en el Hospital Universitario Quironsalud Madrid entre los años 2008-2014. A todas se les practicó cirugía conservadora o radical junto con biopsia selectiva de ganglio centinela posneoadyuvancia. Se recogió información correspondiente a características sociodemográficas, variables relacionadas con el tratamiento quirúrgico y médico, evolución, características del tumor, supervivencia global y supervivencia libre de enfermedad. RESULTADOS: se incluyeron en el estudio 112 pacientes (116 tumores, 4 de ellos bilaterales). De los 112 tumores unilaterales, 98 (84,5%) estaban en estadios iniciales. La mediana de tamaño tumoral fue 20 mm (15-30). La práctica totalidad (97,4%) eran carcinomas ductales infiltrantes. La quimioterapia se basó en antraciclinas y taxanos con adición de carboplatino en los casos triple negativo y de trastuzumab en Her-2/neu sobreexpresado. Se realizó cirugía conservadora en el 59,5%. La tasa de detección de ganglio centinela fue del 100% con un valor predictivo negativo del 99,1% (110/111), al encontrar una sola recidiva axilar en los 111 ganglios centinela negativos, y se obtuvo respuesta completa patológica en el 52,6%, mayoritariamente en los tumores Her-2 puros y triples negativos con diferencia estadísticamente significativa (p:0.018). La supervivencia global fue del 99,1% con mediana de seguimiento de 53 meses, observando eventos de recaída en 10 pacientes de las cuales solo 2 fueron axilares. CONCLUSIONES: en nuestra experiencia, la biopsia selectiva de ganglio centinela sistemática posneoadyuvancia en pacientes con axila negativa al inicio presenta una excelente tasa de detección, sin aumentar el número de recidivas axilares de forma significativa ni la supervivencia global de estas pacientes. Consideramos, por tanto, esta estrategia la mejor opción para la estadificación quirúrgica de estos tumores


OBJECTIVE: To assess sentinel lymph node biopsy rate after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients with negative axillary nodes at diagnosis and to analize their disease free interval and overall survival. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective observational study including breast cancer patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy at the Hospital Universitario Quironsalud Madrid between 2008-2014. Post chemotherapy, all patients underwent conservative or radical surgery along with a systematic sentinel lymph node biopsy. Patients data was collected and included sociodemographic characteristics, variables regarding surgical and medical treatment, follow-up, tumor characteristics, overall and disease-free survival. RESULTS: The study included 112 patients (116 tumors, 4 of them bilateral). Of the 112 unilateral tumors, 98 (84.5%) were early stages. The median tumor size was 20 mm (15-30) and the majority (97,4%) were invasive ductal carcinoma chemotherapy was based on anthracyclines and taxanes with addition of carboplatin in triple negative cases and trastuzumab in Her-2/neu positive tumors. Conservative procedures were performed in 59,5% of cases. Sentinel lymph node detection rate reached 100% with a negative predictive value of 99,1% (110/111) finding only one axillary recurrence among 111 SLNB. We achieved pathological complete response in 52,6% of tumors in the breast, and more specifically in pure Her2/neu positive and triple negative surrogates (p:0.018). Overall survival was 99,1% with median follow-up of 53 months and 10 patients had a relapse, with only two patients with axillary involvement. CONCLUSIONS: In our experience, sentinel lymph node biopsy performed systematically after neoadjuvant treatment in clinically node negative patients have an excellent detection rate without increasing the axillary recurrence rate nor decreasing overall survival in this group of patients. We consider this strategy the best option for the surgical staging of this tumors after chemotherapy
