[A case of intestinal myiasis in a bedridden elderly patient].

A 75-year-old man with type 2 diabetes and a history of previous empyema surgery was admitted to our hospital due to difficulty moving caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and dehydration. During the first two days of hospitalization, intestinal myiasis was diagnosed after maggots were found in his diapers. After the maggots disappeared, he developed a fever, prompting antibiotic therapy for a suspected secondary infection, resulting in clinical improvement. Despite thorough home cleaning, no flies or maggots were found, and the source of infection and the fly species remained unknown. Recent reports suggest a higher prevalence of myiasis among the elderly, even with overall improvement in hygiene. While myiasis is typically mild, it is a condition that requires consideration in an aging society. Myiasis is a disease that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of the elderly, especially in people who are bedridden or frail.

Evaluation of the availability of single-position treatment with a rotating gantry and the validity of deformable image registration dose assessment for pancreatic cancer carbon-ion radiotherapy.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical acceptability of rotational gantry-based single-position carbon-ion radiotherapy (CIRT) to reduce the gastrointestinal (GI) dose in pancreatic cancer. We also evaluated the usefulness of the deformable image registration (DIR)-based dosimetry method for CIRT. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Fifteen patients with pancreatic cancer were analyzed. The treatment plans were developed for four beam angles in the supine (SP plan) and prone (PR plan) positions. In the case of using multiple positions, the treatment plan was created with two angles for each of the supine and prone position (SP + PR plan). Dose evaluation for multiple positions was performed in two ways: by directly adding the values of the DVH parameters for each position treatment plan (DVH sum), and by calculating the DVH parameters from the accumulative dose distribution created using DIR (DIR sum). The D2cc and D6cc of the stomach and duodenum were recorded for each treatment plan and dosimetry method and compared. RESULTS: There were no significant differences among any of the treatment planning and dosimetry methods (p > 0.05). The DVH parameters for the stomach and duodenum were higher in the PR plan and SP plan, respectively, and DVH sum tended to be between the SP and PR plans. DVH sum and DIR sum, DVH sum tended to be higher for D2cc and DIR sum tended to be higher for D6cc . CONCLUSION: There were no significant differences in the GI dose, which suggests that treatment with a simple workflow performed in one position should be clinically acceptable. In CIRT, DIR-based dosimetry should be carefully considered because of the potential for increased uncertainty due to the steep dose distributions.

Establishment and characterization of two novel patient-derived cell lines from giant cell tumor of bone: NCC-GCTB8-C1 and NCC-GCTB9-C1.

Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a rare osteolytic bone tumor consisting of mononuclear stromal cells, macrophages, and osteoclast-like giant cells. Although GCTB predominantly exhibits benign behavior, the tumor carries a significant risk of high local recurrence. Furthermore, GCTB can occasionally undergo malignant transformation and distal metastasis, making it potentially fatal. The standard treatment is complete surgical resection; nonetheless, an optimal treatment strategy for advanced GCTB remains unestablished, necessitating expanded preclinical research to identify appropriate therapeutic options. However, only one GCTB cell line is publicly available from a cell bank for research use worldwide. The present study reports the establishment of two novel cell lines, NCC-GCTB8-C1 and NCC-GCTB9-C1, derived from the primary tumor tissues of two patients with GCTB. Both cell lines maintained the hallmark mutation in the H3-3A gene, which is associated with tumor formation and development in GCTB. Characterization of these cell lines revealed their steady growth, spheroid-formation capability, and invasive traits. Potential therapeutic agents were identified via extensive drug screening of the two cell lines and seven previously established GCTB cell lines. Among the 214 antitumor agents tested, romidepsin, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, and mitoxantrone, a topoisomerase inhibitor, were identified as potential therapeutic agents against GCTB. Conclusively, the establishment of NCC-GCTB8-C1 and NCC-GCTB9-C1 provides novel and crucial resources that are expected to advance GCTB research and potentially revolutionize treatment strategies.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-ASPS2-C1: a novel patient-derived cell line of alveolar soft part sarcoma.

Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor characterized by rearrangement of the ASPSCR1 and TFE3 genes and a histologically distinctive pseudoalveolar pattern. ASPS progresses slowly, but is prone to late metastasis. As ASPS is refractory to conventional chemotherapy, the only curative treatment is complete surgical resection. The prognosis of advanced and metastatic cases is poor, highlighting the need for preclinical research to develop appropriate treatment options. However, ASPS is extremely rare, accounting for < 1% of all soft tissue sarcomas, and only one patient-derived ASPS cell line is available from public cell banks worldwide for research. This study reports the establishment of a novel ASPS cell line derived from the primary tumor tissue of an ASPS patient, named NCC-ASPS2-C1. This cell line retains the ASPSCR1-TFE3 fusion gene, which is characteristic of ASPS. The characterization of this cell line revealed stable growth, spheroid formation, and invasive properties. By screening a drug library using NCC-ASPS2-C1, we identified several drugs that inhibited the proliferation of ASPS cells. In conclusion, the establishment of NCC-ASPS2-C1 provides a valuable resource for advancing ASPS research and developing novel treatments for this challenging disease.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-DFSP5-C1: a novel patient-derived dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans cell line.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is the most prevalent dermal sarcoma, characterized by the presence of the fusion of the collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1) gene with the platelet-derived growth factor beta chain (PDGFB) gene. Although PDGF receptor inhibitor imatinib mesylate was approved for the treating patients with unresectable or metastatic DFSP, disease progression was shown in 9.2% of the patients. Therefore, developing novel therapeutic strategies is crucial for improving the prognosis of DFSP. Patient-derived cell lines play a vital role in preclinical studies; however, only a limited number of DFSP cell lines are currently available in public cell banks. Here, we successfully established a novel DFSP cell line (NCC-DFSP5-C1) using surgically resected tumor tissue from a patient with DFSP. NCC-DFSP5-C1 cells were confirmed to carry the COL1A1-PDGFB translocation and maintain the same mutation as the original tumor tissue. They exhibited consistent growth, formed spheroids, and were invasive. By screening a drug library using NCC-DFSP5-C1 and four previously established DFSP cell lines, we identified anti-cancer drugs that inhibit DFSP cell proliferation. Our observations suggest that the NCC-DFSP5-C1 cell line holds promise as a valuable tool for conducting fundamental and preclinical studies for DFSP.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-LMS3-C1: a novel patient-derived cell line of leiomyosarcoma.

Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is an aggressive mesenchymal malignancy, which originates from the smooth muscle cells or from the precursor mesenchymal stem cells that potentially differentiate into smooth muscle cells. LMS is one of the most common sarcomas. LMS has genomic instability, reflecting complex and unbalanced karyotypes, and the cytogenetic and molecular changes in LMS are not consistent. The standard treatment of the primary LMS is complete resection, and the metastasis is often observed even after curative surgery. Patient-derived cancer models are a key bioresource to develop a novel therapy, and we aimed to establish and characterize a novel cell line for LMS. We established a cell line from tumor tissues of the patient with LMS and named it NCC-LMS3-C1. We maintained NCC-LMS3-C1 cells for 12 months and passed them more than 30 times. Genome-wide copy number analysis demonstrated that NCC-LMS3-C1 cells harbored genetic abnormalities. NCC-LMS3-C1 cells exhibited aggressive phenotypes such as continuous growth, spheroid formation, and invasion in the tissue culture condition, which may reflect the clinical behaviors of LMS. We performed a drug screening using NCC-LMS3-C1 cells and found that four anti-cancer agents, such as bortezomib, dasatinib, mitoxantrone, and romidepsin, had remarkable anti-proliferative effects on NCC-LMS3-C1 cells. We conclude that NCC-LMS3-C1 cells will be a useful resource for the study of LMS.

A robust treatment planning approach for chest motion in postmastectomy chest wall intensity modulated radiation therapy.

PURPOSE: Chest wall postmastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) should consider the effects of chest wall respiratory motion. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of robustness planning intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for respiratory movement, considering respiratory motion as a setup error. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This study analyzed 20 patients who underwent PMRT (10 left and 10 right chest walls). The following three treatment plans were created for each case and compared. The treatment plans are a planning target volume (PTV) plan (PP) that covers the PTV within the body contour with the prescribed dose, a virtual bolus plan (VP) that sets a virtual bolus in contact with the body surface and prescribing the dose that includes the PTV outside the body contour, and a robust plan (RP) that considers respiratory movement as a setup uncertainty and performs robust optimization. The isocenter was shifted to reproduce the chest wall motion pattern and the doses were recalculated for comparison for each treatment plan. RESULT: No significant difference was found between the PP and the RP in terms of the tumor dose in the treatment plan. In contrast, VP had 3.5% higher PTV Dmax and 5.5% lower PTV V95% than RP (p < 0.001). The RP demonstrated significantly higher lung V20Gy and Dmean by 1.4% and 0.4 Gy, respectively, than the PP. The RP showed smaller changes in dose distribution affected by chest wall motion and significantly higher tumor dose coverage than the PP and VP. CONCLUSION: We revealed that the RP demonstrated comparable tumor doses to the PP in treatment planning and was robust for respiratory motion compared to both the PP and the VP. However, the organ at risk dose in the RP was slightly higher; therefore, its clinical use should be carefully considered.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-PMP2-C1: a novel patient-derived cell line of pseudomyxoma peritonei with signet ring cells.

Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare phenomenon, characterized by accumulation of mucus in the abdominal cavity due to a mucinous neoplasm. Histologically, PMP is divided into three prognostic classes, namely low-grade mucinous carcinoma peritonei (LGMCP), high-grade mucinous carcinoma peritonei (HGMCP), and high-grade mucinous carcinoma peritonei with signet ring cells (HGMCP-S); HGMCP-S exhibits the worst prognosis. Complete cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy have been established as the standard therapy for PMP. However, 50% of patients with PMP experience a recurrence, and 30-40% are unable to receive the standard treatment due to invasive diseases. Therefore, novel therapies are required for their treatment. Although patient-derived cell lines are important tools for basic and pre-clinical research, PMP cell lines derived from patients with HGMCP-S have never been reported. Thus, we established a novel PMP cell line NCC-PMP2-C1, using surgically resected tumor tissue from a patient with HGMCP-S. NCC-PMP2-C1 cells were maintained for more than five months and passaged 30 times under culture conditions. NCC-PMP2-C1 cells exhibited multiple deletions and somatic mutations, slow growth, histological features, and dissemination of tumor cells in nude mice. Screening for the anti-proliferative effects of anti-cancer drugs on cells revealed that bortezomib, mubritinib, and romidepsin had a significant response against NCC-PMP2-C1 cells. Thus, the NCC-PMP2-C1 cell line is the first PMP cell line harboring signet ring cells and will be a valuable resource for basic and preclinical studies of HGMCP-S.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-DFSP4-C1: a novel cell line from a patient with dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans having the fibrosarcomatous transformation.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a superficial low-grade sarcoma, genetically characterized by a fusion gene in collagen type I α (COL1A1) gene and platelet-derived growth factor subunit ß (PDGFB). DFSP is locally aggressive and does not typically metastasize. However, DFSP with fibrosarcomatous transformation, which occurs in 7-16% of DFSP cases, demonstrates a poor prognosis than classic DFSP with a higher local recurrence rate and metastatic potential. Although imatinib, a PDGF receptor inhibitor, is a potent therapeutic agent for classic DFSP, it is less effective for DFSP with fibrosarcomatous transformation. The development of definitive chemotherapies for DFSP with fibrosarcomatous transformation is required. Patient-derived tumor cell lines are indispensable tools for preclinical research to discover novel therapeutic agents. However, only seven cell lines were derived from DFSP, out of which only two were established from DFSP with fibrosarcomatous transformation. Hence, in the present study, we established a novel DFSP cell line, NCC-DFSP4-C1, from a surgically resected DFSP tumor specimen with fibrosarcomatous transformation. NCC-DFSP4-C1 harbored an identical COL1A1-PDGFB fusion gene as its donor tumor. NCC-DFSP4-C1 cells retained the morphology of their donor tumor and demonstrated constant proliferation, spheroid formation, and invasion capability in vitro. By screening a drug library, we found that bortezomib and romidepsin demonstrated the strongest suppressive effects on the proliferation of NCC-DFSP4-C1 cells. In conclusion, we report a novel cell line of DFSP with fibrosarcomatous transformation, and demonstrate its utility in the development of novel therapeutic agents for DFSP.

Establishment and characterization of two novel patient-derived cell lines from giant cell tumor of bone.

Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a rare bone tumor with osteolytic features, composed of stromal cells with a monotonous appearance, macrophages, and osteoclast-like giant cells. GCTB is commonly associated with a pathogenic mutation in the H3-3A gene. While complete surgical resection is the standard cure for GCTB, it often results in local recurrence and, rarely, metastasis. Thus, an effective multidisciplinary treatment approach is necessary. Although patient-derived cell lines is an essential tool for investigating novel treatment strategies, there are only four GCTB cell lines available in public cell banks. Therefore, this study aimed to establish novel GCTB cell lines and successfully created NCC-GCTB6-C1 and NCC-GCTB7-C1 cell lines from two patients' surgically removed tumor tissues. These cell lines exhibited H3-3A gene mutations, consistent proliferation, and invasive properties. After characterizing their behaviors, we performed high-throughput screening of 214 anti-cancer drugs for NCC-GCTB6-C1 and NCC-GCTB7-C1 and integrated their screening data with those of NCC-GCTB1-C1, NCC-GCTB2-C1, NCC-GCTB3-C1, NCC-GCTB4-C1, and NCC-GCTB5-C1 that we previously established. We identified histone deacetylase inhibitor romidepsin as a possible treatment for GCTB. These findings suggest that NCC-GCTB6-C1 and NCC-GCTB7-C1 could be valuable tools for preclinical and basic research on GCTB.

Integrating analysis of proteome profile and drug screening identifies therapeutic potential of MET pathway for the treatment of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor.

BACKGROUND: Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is an aggressive sarcoma with a poor prognosis that requires novel therapeutic agents. Proteome information is useful for identifying new therapeutic candidates because it directly reflects the biological phenotype. Additionally, in vitro drug screening is an effective tool to identify candidate drugs for common cancers. Hence, we attempted to identify novel therapeutic candidates for MPNST by integrating proteomic analysis and drug screening. METHODS: We performed comprehensive proteomic analysis on 23 MPNST tumor samples using liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry to identify therapeutic targets. We also conducted drug screening of six MPNST cell lines using 214 drugs. RESULTS: Proteomic analysis revealed that the MET and IGF pathways were significantly enriched in the local recurrence/distant metastasis group of MPNST, whereas drug screening revealed that 24 drugs showed remarkable antitumor effects on the MPNST cell lines. By integrating the results of these two approaches, MET inhibitors, crizotinib and foretinib, were identified as novel therapeutic candidates for the treatment of MPNST. CONCLUSIONS: We successfully identified novel therapeutic candidates for the treatment of MPNST, namely crizotinib and foretinib, which target the MET pathway. We hope that these candidate drugs will contribute to the treatment of MPNST.

Impact of respiratory bacterial infections on mortality in Japanese patients with COVID-19: a retrospective cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Although cases of respiratory bacterial infections associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have often been reported, their impact on the clinical course remains unclear. Herein, we evaluated and analyzed the complication rates of bacterial infections, causative organisms, patient backgrounds, and clinical outcome in Japanese patients with COVID-19. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study that included inpatients with COVID-19 from multiple centers participating in the Japan COVID-19 Taskforce (April 2020 to May 2021) and obtained demographic, epidemiological, and microbiological results and the clinical course and analyzed the cases of COVID-19 complicated by respiratory bacterial infections. RESULTS: Of the 1,863 patients with COVID-19 included in the analysis, 140 (7.5%) had respiratory bacterial infections. Community-acquired co-infection at COVID-19 diagnosis was uncommon (55/1,863, 3.0%) and was mainly caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Streptococcus pneumoniae. Hospital-acquired bacterial secondary infections, mostly caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, were diagnosed in 86 patients (4.6%). Severity-associated comorbidities were frequently observed in hospital-acquired secondary infection cases, including hypertension, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease. The study results suggest that the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (> 5.28) may be useful in diagnosing complications of respiratory bacterial infections. COVID-19 patients with community-acquired or hospital-acquired secondary infections had significantly increased mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Respiratory bacterial co-infections and secondary infections are uncommon in patients with COVID-19 but may worsen outcomes. Assessment of bacterial complications is important in hospitalized patients with COVID-19, and the study findings are meaningful for the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents and management strategies.

Error on the stopping power ratio of ERKODENT's mouthpiece for head and neck carbon ion radiotherapy treatment.

The errors on the stopping power ratio (SPR) of mouthpiece samples from ERKODENT were evaluated. Erkoflex and Erkoloc-pro from ERKODENT and samples that combined Erkoflex and Erkoloc-pro were computed tomography (CT)-scanned using head and neck (HN) protocol at the East Japan Heavy Ion Center (EJHIC), and the values were averaged to obtain the CT number. The integral depth dose of the Bragg curve with and without these samples was measured for 292.1, 180.9, and 118.8 MeV/u of the carbon-ion pencil beam using an ionization chamber with concentric electrodes at the horizontal port of the EJHIC. The average value of the water equivalent length (WEL) of each sample was obtained from the difference between the range of the Bragg curve and the thickness of the sample. To calculate the difference between the theoretical and measured values, the theoretical CT number and SPR value of the sample were calculated using the stoichiometric calibration method. Compared with the Hounsfield unit (HU)-SPR calibration curve used at the EJHIC, the SPR error on each measured and theoretical value was calculated. The WEL value of the mouthpiece sample had an error of approximately 3.5% in the HU-SPR calibration curve. From this error, it was evaluated that for a mouthpiece with a thickness of 10 mm, a beam range error of approximately 0.4 mm can occur, and for a mouthpiece with a thickness of 30 mm, a beam range error of approximately 1 mm can occur. For a beam passing through the mouthpiece in HN treatment, it would be practical to consider a mouthpiece margin of 1 mm to avoid beam range errors if ions pass through the mouthpiece.

Diagnostic significance of secondary bacteremia in patients with COVID-19.

OBJECTIVES: We investigated the occurrence of non-respiratory bacterial and fungal secondary infections, causative organisms, impact on clinical outcomes, and association between the secondary pathogens and mortality in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study that included data from inpatients with COVID-19 from multiple centers participating in the Japan COVID-19 Taskforce (April 2020 to May 2021). We obtained demographic, epidemiological, and microbiological data throughout the course of hospitalization and analyzed the cases of COVID-19 complicated by non-respiratory bacterial infections. RESULTS: Of the 1914 patients included, non-respiratory bacterial infections with COVID-19 were diagnosed in 81 patients (4.2%). Of these, 59 (3.1%) were secondary infections. Bacteremia was the most frequent bacterial infection, occurring in 33 cases (55.9%), followed by urinary tract infections in 16 cases (27.1%). Staphylococcus epidermidis was the most common causative organism of bacteremia. Patients with COVID-19 with non-respiratory secondary bacterial infections had significantly higher mortality, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that those with bacteremia (aOdds Ratio = 15.3 [5.97-39.1]) were at higher risk of death. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, male sex, use of steroids to treat COVID-19, and intensive care unit admission increased the risk for nosocomial bacteremia. CONCLUSIONS: Secondary bacteremia is an important complication that may lead to poor prognosis in cases with COVID-19. An appropriate medical management strategy must be established, especially for patients with concomitant predisposing factors.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-DSM1-C1: a novel cell line derived from a patient with desmoid fibromatosis.

Desmoid fibromatosis (DSM) is a rare, locally aggressive mesenchymal tumor genetically characterized by mutations in the CTNNB1 gene. A local control rate of up to 65‒80% for DSM is achieved with multiple modality treatments, including watchful monitoring, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, and surgery. However, several variables, such as age < 30 years, extremity tumor location, and tumor size of > 10 cm in diameter, are associated with poor local control rates in patients with DSM. The definitive treatments for DSM have not been established. Therefore, it is necessary to develop novel treatments for DSM. Moreover, although patient-derived tumor cell lines are potent tools for preclinical research, no DSM cell lines have been reported. Therefore, this study aimed to establish and characterize a novel DSM cell line for preclinical studies on DSM. Herein, we established the first cell line derived from a patient with DSM exhibiting poor prognostic factors (27-year-old male patient with a DSM tumor of > 10 cm in diameter located at the lower extremity) and named it NCC-DSM1-C1. NCC-DSM1-C1 cells had a T41A mutation in CTNNB1 and exhibited constant proliferation, spheroid formation, and invasion capability in vitro. Screening of antitumor agents in NCC-DSM1-C1 cells showed that bortezomib and romidepsin are effective against DSM. In conclusion, we report the first officially characterized DSM cell line derived from a patient with DSM exhibiting factors associated with poor prognosis. We believe that NCC-DSM1-C1 cell line is a useful tool for developing novel treatments for DSM.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-PLPS2-C1: a novel cell line of pleomorphic liposarcoma.

Pleomorphic liposarcoma (PLPS) is a highly malignant subtype of liposarcoma. It is histologically characterized by the presence of pleomorphic lipoblasts and can be accompanied by morphological foci that demonstrate differentiation to other histological lineages. PLPS is rare and accounts for only 5% of all liposarcomas. PLPS exhibits poor prognosis; distant metastases develop in 30-50% of patients after curative surgical resection, tumor-associated mortality occurs in up to 50% of patients, and effective chemotherapies for PLPS have not been established. The histological accompaniment of other morphological foci is an important prognostic factor for PLPS, and the development of chemotherapies for PLPS considering the histological morphology is necessary. Patient-derived cancer cell lines are critical tools for basic and pre-clinical research to understand diseases and develop chemotherapies. However, only two PLPS-derived cell lines have been reported, and their donor tumor specimens did not histologically accompany morphological foci other than lipoblasts. Thus, there is a need to establish patient-derived PLPS cell lines from various histological morphologies. Here, we report a novel PLPS cell line from a tumor specimen that histologically accompanied pleomorphic and bone-forming foci, and named it NCC-PLPS2-C1. NCC-PLPS2-C1 cells demonstrated constant proliferation, spheroid formation, and invasion capability in vitro. Screening of antitumor agents in NCC-PLPS2-C1 cells showed that bortezomib, romidepsin, and trabectedin were effective against NCC-PLPS2-C1. In conclusion, we report the first PLPS cell line from a tumor specimen that was morphologically accompanied by pleomorphic and born-forming foci. We believe that NCC-PLPS2-C1 will be useful for the development of novel chemotherapies for PLPS.

Establishment and characterization of NCC-PS1-C1: a novel cell line of pleomorphic sarcoma from a patient after neoadjuvant radiotherapy.

Pleomorphic sarcoma (PS) is a heterogeneous group of malignant mesenchymal tumors without a specific histological lineage of differentiation. PS is genetically characterized by genetic instability and diversity and histologically characterized by morphological pleomorphism. PS is one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas. The only curative treatment for PS is complete surgical resection, in which neoadjuvant radiotherapy is frequently combined. PS demonstrates both local recurrence and metastasis after surgical treatment, and effective systemic chemotherapy has not yet been established. Patient-derived cancer cell lines are critical tools for basic and preclinical studies in the development of chemotherapy. However, only six PS cell lines are available from the public cell bank, and none of them are derived from PS after neoadjuvant radiotherapy, despite the fact that radiotherapy causes changes in the posttreatment cancer genome. Here, we reported a novel cell line of PS from a primary tumor specimen resected after neoadjuvant radiotherapy and named it NCC-PS1-C1. NCC-PS1-C1 cells showed a variety of copy number alterations and pathological mutations in TP53. NCC-PS1-C1 cells demonstrated constant proliferation, spheroid formation, and invasion capability in vitro. The screening of antitumor agents in NCC-PS1-C1 cells showed that bortezomib and romidepsin were effective against PS. In conclusion, we report a novel PS cell line from a primary tumor resected after neoadjuvant radiotherapy. We believe that NCC-PS1-C1 will be a useful tool for the development of novel chemotherapies for PS, especially for recurrent cases after neoadjuvant radiotherapy.
