Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for patients with node positive (N+) breast cancer consisted of anthracycline followed by taxane. The European Association for Research in Oncology embarked in 2000 on a phase III trial comparing 6 cycles of FEC100 versus 4 FEC100 followed by 4 Taxol. Primary end-point was disease free survival. Secondary end-points were overall survival, local recurrence free interval, metastases free interval and safety. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between March 2000 and December 2002, 837 patients were randomised between 6FEC100 for 6 cycles (417patients) or FEC100 for 4 cycles then Taxol 175mg/m(2)/3 weeks for 4 cycles (4FEC100-4T) (420 patients). One thousand patients had been planned initially but the trial was closed earlier due to slow accrual. RESULTS Hazard ratios (HRs) were 0.99 for disease-free survival (DFS) (95%CI: 0.77-1.26; p=0.91), and 0.85 for overall survival (OS) (95%CI: 0.62-1.15; p=0.29). Nine-year DFS were 62.9% versus 62.5% for 6FEC100 and 4FEC100-4T, respectively. Nine-year OS were 73.9% versus 77% for 6FEC100 and 4FEC100-4T, respectively. Toxicity analyses based on 803 evaluable patients showed that overall grade 3-4 toxicities were similar in both arms (63% versus 58% for 6FEC100 arm and 4FEC100-4T arm, respectively; p=0.16). CONCLUSION In this trial replacing the last 2 FEC100 cycles of 6FEC100 regimen by 4 Taxol does not lead to a discernable DFS or OS advantage. The lack of a significant difference between the randomised treatment arms may however be due to a lack of power of this trial to detect small, yet clinically worthwhile, treatment benefits.

Abstract
PURPOSE Adenoid cystic carcinoma represents 1% of head and neck cancers. Adenoid cystic carcinomas are slow growing tumours with high potential for local recurrence. Treatment usually associates radiotherapy and surgery, but the role of radiotherapy remains unclear. We report a retrospective multicentric study of the management and prognostic factors of 169 adenoid cystic carcinomas of head and neck. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1982 and 2010, 169 patients with adenoid cystic carcinoma of the head and neck were referred to the Cercle des oncologues radiothérapeutes du Sud departments of radiotherapy either for primary untreated tumour (n=135) or for a recurrence of previously treated tumour (n=34). The site of adenoid cystic carcinoma was: parotid gland (n=48, 28.4%), minor salivary gland (n=35, 20.7%), submandibular gland (n=22, 13%), sinus cavities (n=22, 13%), other (n=42, 24.9%). Tumour stages were: T1 (12.4%); T2 (14.2%); T3 (12.4%); T4 (41.4%) and Tx (19.5%). Lymph node involvement was 13% and distant metastasis 8.9%. For adenoid cystic carcinomas of the parotid gland, major nerve involvement was evaluated. Preferential site of metastasis was the lung (87.5%). Treatments were: surgery alone (n=27), surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy (n=89), surgery and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (n=12), exclusive chemoradiotherapy (n=13), exclusive radiotherapy (n=14), other associations (n=5) and no treatment (n=7). Radiotherapy was delivered through photons (n=119), neutrons (n=6), both (n=4). Two patients had a brachytherapy boost. Median prescribed doses to T and N were respectively 65 Gy and 50 Gy for the 119 photons treated patients. RESULTS Mean follow-up was 58 months (range 1-250 months). As of December 1, 2010, 83 patients were alive with no evolutive disease (49%), 35 alive and had recurred, 18 had uncontrolled evolutive disease, 28 had died of adenoid cystic carcinoma and 5 of intercurrent disease. Overall survival and disease free survival were respectively 72% and 72% at 5 years, 53% and 32% at 10 years; 5 and 10-year freedom from local recurrence were 81% and 52% respectively. Nerve involvement was found in 17/48 parotid gland adenoid cystic carcinomas. The Cox model including all patients, showed that surgery (P<0.001), surgical margins (P=0.015), nerve involvement (P=0.0079), length of radiotherapy (P=0.018), and tumour location (P=0.041) were associated with disease free survival. CONCLUSION In this large series of adenoid cystic carcinoma of head and neck with a majority of T3-T4 tumours, 10-year survivals were achieved for 50% of patients. Radiotherapy did not impact survival.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine prospectively the factors associated with reconstruction failure (i.e. requiring expander removal) and capsular contracture in patients undergoing mastectomy and immediate two-stage breast reconstruction with a tissue expander and implant, and radiotherapy for breast cancer. This is a multi-institutional prospective nonrandomized trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 2/1998 and 9/2006, we prospectively evaluated 141 consecutive patients who received 141 implants after mastectomy and underwent chest wall radiotherapy (46 to 50 Gy in 23 to 25 fractions). Patients were evaluated after 24 to 36 months by two senior physicians (radiation oncologist and surgeon). RESULTS Medical follow-up was 37 months. Baker 1 and 2 capsular contracture was observed in 67.5% of patients, Baker 3 and 4 in 32.5%. There were 32 reconstruction failures. In a univariate analysis, the following factors were associated with Baker 3 and 4 capsular contracture: surgeon, use of hormonotherapy and smoking, of which only one remained in the multivariate analysis: surgeon. In a univariate analysis, the following factors were associated with reconstruction failure: tumor size T3 or T4, smoking, pN+ axilla. Three factors remained associated with reconstruction failure in a multiple logistic regression: large tumors T3/T4, smoking and pN+ axilla. CONCLUSIONS Mastectomy, radiotherapy and immediate breast reconstruction with a tissue expander and implant should be considered when breast conserving surgery has been denied. Adequate patients can be easily selected by using three factors of favourable outcome.

Abstract
605 Background: In a randomized phase II study, P. Piedbois et al. explored a dose-dense docetaxel (T) followed by epirubicin/cyclophosphamide (EC) every two weeks versus the reverse sequence, versus standard-dose docetaxel, epiribucin and cyclophosphamide (TEC) every 3 weeks. The main purpose of this second analysis was to further explore the haematological safety of each regimen in patients receiving primary prophylactic pegfilgrastim. Methods: One hundred patients with node-positive invasive breast adenocarcinoma were randomized between (arm A) docetaxel 75 mg/m2, epiribucin 75 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2 (TEC) every 3 weeks for 6 cycles (35 patients) or (arm B) epiribucin 100 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 every 2 weeks for 4 cycles, followed by T 100 mg/m2 (EC→T) every 2 weeks for 4 cycles (31 patients) or (arm C) T→ EC (34 patients). Among the 99 patients who received chemotherapy, 79 received pegfilgrastim 6 mg subcutaneous day 1 from the first cycle (27 in arm A, 23 in arm B and 29 in arm C). The safety data of these 79 patients were reported here. Results: Our results showed grade 3/4: neutropenia (arm A 30 %, arm B 39 %, arm C 31 %) and febrile neutropenia (FN) (arm A 11 %, arm B 13 %, arm C 3 %), grade 2–4: anaemia (arm A 26 %, arm B 61 %, arm C 55 %) and thrombocytopenia (arm A 15 %, arm B 9 %, arm C 3 %), respectively. Crude proportion and time to toxicity summaries showed that in dose-dense arms, patients allocated to the EC→ T sequence were more exposed to FN than patients allocated to the T→ EC. In the Cox model taking into account all allocated treatment and age, treatment was a predictor of grade 2–4 anaemia, whereas age was significantly correlated to grade 2–4 thrombocytopenia. There was no clear relationship between haematological toxicity and dose intensity across all treatment arms. Except for nausea (17 % versus 3 %) and neurological toxicity (13 % versus 3 %), non-haematological toxicities were similar in arm B and C. Conclusions: These analyzes confirmed that dose-dense regimens EC→ T or T→ EC are feasible with pegfilgrastim primary prophylaxis. The T→ EC sequence seems to be associated with a better haematological tolerance, and should be the preferred dose-dense regimen providing similar efficacy. The trial was supported by Amgen. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adding a taxane to anthracycline-based adjuvant chemotherapy prolongs survival in node-positive patients but optimal dose and schedule remain undetermined. This study aimed to select a dose-dense regimen for further assessment in phase III studies. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety-nine patients with node-positive invasive breast adenocarcinoma were randomly assigned to docetaxel (Taxotere) (T) 75 mg/m2, epirubicin (E) 75 mg/m2 and cyclophosphamide (C) 500 mg/m2 (TEC)x6, every 3 weeks; E 100 mg/m2, C 600 mg/m2 x 4, then T 100 mg/m2 x 4 (EC-->T) or the reverse sequence (T-->EC), every 2 weeks, with pegfilgrastim support. The primary end point was the incidence of grade 4 toxicity. RESULTS Dose intensity was almost doubled with dose-dense regimens, compared with TEC. Twenty-seven patients experienced grade 4 toxicity: 26%, 40% and 18% with TEC, EC-->T and T-->EC, respectively, mainly neutropenia, but febrile neutropenia occurred only in 11%, 10% and 3%. Grade 3-4 nail disorders, hand-foot syndrome and peripheral neuropathy occurred in 46%, 73% and 68% of patients with TEC, EC-->T and T-->EC, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Dose-dense regimens yield more frequent and severe nonhematological toxic effects than standard dose TEC regimen. Though grade 4 toxicity rates appear acceptable with the T-->EC regimen, the incidence of grade 3-4 events makes it difficult to recommend either dose-dense regimen for further investigation.

Abstract
Steroid hormones synthesized from cholesterol in the adrenal gland are important regulators of many physiological processes. It is now well documented that the expression of many genes required for steroid biosynthesis is dependent on the coordinated expression of the nuclear receptor steroidogenic factor-1 (SF-1). However, transcriptional mechanisms underlying the species-specific, developmentally programmed and hormone-dependent modulation of the adrenal steroid pathways remain to be elucidated. Recently, we demonstrated that the transcriptional regulating protein of 132 kDa (TReP-132) acts as a coactivator of SF-1 to regulate human P450scc gene transcription in human adrenal NCI-H295 cells. The present study shows that overexpression of TReP-132 increases the level of active steroids produced in NCI-H295 cells. The conversion of pregnenolone to downstream steroids following TReP-132 expression showed increased levels of glucocorticoids, C(19) steroids and estrogens. Correlating with these data, TReP-132 increases P450c17 activities via the induction of transcript levels and promoter activity of the P450c17 gene, an effect that is enhanced in the presence of cAMP or SF-1. In addition, P450aro activity and mRNA levels are highly induced by TReP-132, whereas 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type II and P450c11aldo transcript levels are only slightly modulated. Taken together, these results demonstrate that TReP-132 is a trans-acting factor of genes involved in adrenal glucocorticoid, C(19) steroid and estrogen production.

Abstract
Polyphenol-rich diet decreases cardiovascular risk. LDL oxidation is the primary event in atherosclerosis plaque formation and antioxidants such as polyphenols were shown to inhibit LDL oxidation and atherosclerosis development. Hawthorn (Crataegus) and derived pharmaceuticals are rich in polyphenols and already prescribed to treat moderate heart failure, nervousness and sleep disorders. Extracts either from fresh plant parts (flower buds, flowers, young leaves or green fruits) or from dried pharmaceutical parts (flowers and flowering tops) were previously shown to be effective inhibitors of lipoperoxidation and scavengers of oxygen species. In this study, the capacity of total and ethyl-acetate extracts from dried pharmaceutical flowers, tops and fruits to inhibit Cu(2+)-induced LDL oxidation was tested. This capacity was positively linked to their content in total polyphenols, proanthocyanidins (global and oligomeric forms), as well as to their content in two individual phenolics: a flavanol, the dimeric procyanidin B2 and a flavonol glycoside, hyperoside. Flavanol-type phenolics showed to be higher active than the majority of the flavonoids tested in inhibiting Cu(2+)-induced LDL peroxidation. This study suggests that hawthorn could be a source of polyphenols able to inhibit LDL oxidation.

Abstract
The protective effect of di-tert-butylhydroxylated flavonoids (chalcones and arylidenes) against minimally oxidized LDL (mO-LDL)-induced cytotoxicity was studied in cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. Most of the tested compounds decreased aldehydes formation in medium containing mO-LDL, but their capacity to inhibit LDL oxidation in the cellular medium was not sufficient to totally reduce the cellular toxicity of mO-LDL. Most of the tested flavonoids improved the integrity of cells exposed to mO-LDL, whereas butylated hydroxytoluene was ineffective and quercetin worsened the toxicity of mO-LDL. Moreover these flavonoids induced an increase in GSH cellular levels and their protective effects might be because of their inability to reduce metal ion. Arylidene 6 substituted at position 7 by a hydroxyl group was the most potent compound.

Abstract
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) acts independently of its function as triglyceride hydrolase by stimulating macrophage binding and uptake of native, oxidized and glycated LDL. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors expressed in monocyte/macrophages, where they control cholesterol homeostasis. Here we study the role of PPARs in the regulation of LPL expression and activity in human monocytes and macrophages. Incubation of human monocytes or macrophages with PPARalpha or PPARgamma ligands increases LPL mRNA and intracellular protein levels. By contrast, PPAR activators decrease secreted LPL mass and enzyme activity in differentiated macrophages. These actions of PPAR activators are associated with a reduced uptake of glycated LDL and could influence atherosclerosis development associated with diabetes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the clinical and histological characteristics of breast cancer (BC) occurring after Hodgkin's disease (HD) and give possible therapies and prevention methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS In a retrospective multicentric analysis, 117 women and two men treated for HD subsequently developed 133 BCs. The median age at diagnosis of HD was 24 years. The HD stages were stage I in 25 cases (21%), stage II in 70 cases (59%), stage III in 13 cases (11%), stage IV in six cases (5%) and not specified in five cases (4%). Radiotherapy (RT) was used alone in 74 patients (63%) and combined modalities with chemotherapy (CT) was used in 43 patients (37%). RESULTS BC occurred after a median interval of 16 years. TNM classification (UICC, 1978) showed 15 T0 (11.3%), 44 T1 (33.1%), 36 T2 (27.1%), nine T3 (6.7%), 15 T4 (11.3%) and 14 Tx (10.5%). Ductal infiltrating carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) represented 81.2 and 11.3% of the cases, respectively. Among the infiltrating carcinoma, the axillary involvement rate was 50%. Seventy-four tumours were treated by mastectomy without (67) or with (ten) RT. Forty-four tumours had lumpectomy without (12) or with (32) RT. Another four received RT alone, and one CT alone. Sixteen patients (12%) developed isolated local recurrence. Thirty-nine patients (31.7%) developed metastases and 34 died; 38 are in complete remission whereas five died of intercurrent disease. The 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 65.1%. The 5-year disease-specific survival rates for the pN0, pN1-3 and pN>3 groups were 91, 66 and 15%, respectively (P<0.0001), and 100, 88, and 64% for the TIS, T1 and T2. For the T3 and T4, the survival rates decreased sharply to 32 and 23%, respectively. These secondary BC are of two types: a large number of aggressive tumours with a very unfavourable prognosis (especially in the case of pN>3 and/or T3T4), and many tumours with a 'slow spreading' such as DCIS and microinvasive lesions. These lesions developed especially in patients treated exclusively by RT. CONCLUSIONS The young women and girls treated for HD should be carefully monitored in the long-term by clinical examination, mammography and ultrasonography. We suggest that a baseline mammography is performed 5-8 years after supradiaphragmatic irradiation (complete mantle or involved field) in patients who were treated before 30 years of age. Subsequent mammographies should be performed every 2 years or each year, depending on the characteristics of the breast tissue (e.g. density) and especially in the case of an association with other BC risk factors. This screening seems of importance due to excellent prognosis in our T(1S)T(1) groups, and the possibility of offering these young women a conservative treatment.

Abstract
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are nuclear receptors that regulate lipid and glucose metabolism and cellular differentiation. PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma are both expressed in human macrophages where they exert anti-inflammatory effects. The activation of PPAR-alpha may promote foam-cell formation by inducing expression of the macrophage scavenger receptor CD36. This prompted us to investigate the influence of different PPAR-activators on cholesterol metabolism and foam-cell formation of human primary and THP-1 macrophages. Here we show that PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma activators do not influence acetylated low density lipoprotein-induced foam-cell formation of human macrophages. In contrast, PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma activators induce the expression of the gene encoding ABCA1, a transporter that controls apoAI-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages. These effects are likely due to enhanced expression of liver-x-receptor alpha, an oxysterol-activated nuclear receptor which induces ABCA1-promoter transcription. Moreover, PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma activators increase apoAI-induced cholesterol efflux from normal macrophages. In contrast, PPAR-alpha or PPAR-gamma activation does not influence cholesterol efflux from macrophages isolated from patients with Tangier disease, which is due to a genetic defect in ABCA1. Here we identify a regulatory role for PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma in the first steps of the reverse-cholesterol-transport pathway through the activation of ABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux in human macrophages.

Abstract
Epidemiological evidence suggests an inverse relationship between dietary intake of flavonoids and cardiovascular risk. The biological activities of flavonoids are related to their antioxidative effects, but they also can be mutagenic, due to the prooxidant activity of the catechol pattern. To prevent these problems, we synthesized new flavonoids where one or two di-tert-butylhydroxyphenyl (DBHP) groups replaced catechol moiety at position 2 of the benzopyrane heterocycle. Two DBHP moieties can also be arranged in an arylidene structure or one DBHP fixed on a chalcone structure. Position 7 on the flavone and arylidene or position 4 on the chalcone was substituted by H, OCH(3), or OH. New structures were compared with quercetin and BHT in an LDL oxidation system induced by Cu(II) ions. Arylidenes and chalcones had the best activities (ED(50) = 0.86 and 0.21) compared with vitamin E, BHT, and quercetin (ED(50) = 10.0, 7. 4, and 2.3 microM). Activity towards stable free radical 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) was measured by log Z and ECR(50) parameters. Synthesized flavones proved to be poor DPPH radical scavengers, the activity increasing with the number of DBHP units. In contrast, arylidenes and chalcones were stronger DPPH radical scavengers (log Z > 3, 0.3 < ECR(50) < 2.12) than BHT (log Z = 0.75, ECR(50) = 12.56) or quercetin (log Z = 2.76, ECR(50) = 0.43). Unlike quercetin, synthesized compounds neither chelated nor reduced copper, proving that these new flavonoids had no prooxidant activity in vitro.

Abstract
In vivo low density protein (LDL) oxidation is a progressive phenomenon leading to the presence of minimally and highly oxidized LDLs in the subendothelial arterial space. Oxidized LDLs have been reported to be cytotoxic against endothelial cells. The goal of this study was to determine which of the minimally and highly oxidized LDLs were the most cytotoxic against bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC). Both the morphological aspect of the cells themselves, and LDH or MTT tests revealed that mO- or Cu-LDLs had similar cytotoxicity with up to 8 hours of oxidation, showing no relation with the level of LDL oxidation; for longer oxidation times, Cu-LDL cytotoxicity decreased. This phenomenon is linked to their different oxidation kinetics. Moreover, in the initial hours following BAEC incubation with mO- or Cu-LDLs, total cell glutathione dropped, whereas after 16 hours of incubation, highly oxidized Cu-LDL increased the glutathione level in the cell. The biphasic evolution of glutathione concentration corresponds to an autoprotective mechanism of cells against oxidized LDL cytotoxicity. This study suggests that the specific chemical characteristics of the different types of oxidized LDLs should always be precisely described in future assays devoted to studying the biological effects of what are known under the generic term as "oxidized LDLs". This precaution should prevent any confusion in interpreting different studies.

Abstract
It has been reported that paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity inhibits low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation and modulates the risk of coronary heart disease. This study shows that autoantibodies (IgG) directed against modified LDL were increased in 71 patients positive for anticardiolipin antibodies. In a representative subgroup of these patients (n = 36) PON1 activity was dramatically decreased and the prevalence of the RR genotype of this enzyme tended to be increased in patients who had developed arterial thrombosis. This study suggests that PON1 abnormalities play a role in the antiphospholipid syndrome.

Abstract
4-Mercaptoimidazoles derived from the naturally occurring family of antioxidants, the ovothiols, were assayed for their antioxidant properties. These compounds are powerful HOCl scavengers, more potent than the aliphatic thiol N-acetylcysteine. They react slowly with hydrogen peroxide with second order rate constants of 0.13-0.89 M(-1)s(-1). Scavenging of hydroxyl radical occurs at a diffusion-controlled rate (k=2.0-5.0 x 10(10)M(-1)s(-1)) for the most active compounds, which are also able to inhibit copper-induced LDL peroxidation. The combination of radical scavenging and copper chelating properties may explain the inhibitory effects on LDL peroxidation. Two molecules of mercaptoimidazole can chelate a copper ion and form a square planar complex detected by EPR. Compounds bearing an electron-withdrawing group on position 2 of the imidazole ring are the most potent antioxidant molecules in this series.

Abstract
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is a transcription factor belonging to the PPAR subfamily of nuclear receptors. Fatty acids and eicosanoids are natural PPARalpha ligands. Here, we show using transient transfection assays that oxidized (oxLDL) but not native low-density lipoproteins (LDL) dose-dependently activate PPARalpha in endothelial cells without affecting PPARalpha protein expression. Fractioning of oxLDL lipids followed by transactivation experiments demonstrated that the oxidized phospholipid component in oxLDL is responsible for PPARalpha activation. Using specific inhibitors, it is shown that oxLDL-mediated PPARalpha activation requires phospholipase A2 activity and that the oxidized fatty acids 9- and 13-HODE activate PPARalpha directly. Finally, we found that, similar to the synthetic PPARalpha ligand Wy-14643, oxLDL induced expression of the fatty acid transport protein-1 in human primary endothelial cells. Our findings define a novel group of PPARalpha activators and provide a molecular basis for certain effects of these biologically active phospholipids on gene transcription.
