Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to generate a core clinical dataset (CD) containing the minimum acceptable amount of information that should be collected for each patient presenting with triglyceride-induced acute pancreatitis within global treatment centres or sites. METHOD The Jandhyala Method, including systematic literature review and SMART interviews, was used to observe expert opinion from ten leaders in the treatment of triglyceride-induced acute pancreatitis (TG-IAP) across the US and EU. RESULTS Using the PRISMA Literature Review Protocol, data were extracted from 123 of the 6718 identified studies. A total of 243 items were identified from the data extracted from these studies and, combined with the unique items coded from the Awareness Round (1) survey, formed the Consensus Round (2) survey. One hundred and ninety-five of the 243 items (80%) met the consensus threshold and were included for appraisal in the SMART interview phase. A total of 109 items were agreed to form part of the current clinical diagnostic and monitoring procedure by all experts once the weights across all the stakeholder disciplines were balanced to eliminate bias. These items were further condensed to form the core dataset, comprising a total of 87 items. CONCLUSION Once validated and adopted, the TG-IAP CD will improve the overall management of patients with TG-IAP by speeding up diagnosis and detecting changes in disease severity and subsequent disease progression, informing personalized patient management plans, and improving patient outcomes.

J Neuroendocrinol 2023; 35:e13227. [PMID: 36599808 PMCID: PMC10078167 DOI: 10.1111/jne.13227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are highly vascularized neoplasms. While FOLFOX chemotherapy has shown efficacy in patients with advanced NETs, its combination with antiangiogenics has been scarcely described. Here, we report the efficacy and tolerance of FOLFOX-bevacizumab in this setting. We retrospectively studied all consecutive patients with metastatic NET treated by FOLFOX-bevacizumab in two expert centers from 2013 to 2020. We assessed time to treatment failure (TTF), objective response rate (ORR) and toxicity. We explored factors associated with TTF and ORR using multivariate analyses. We included 57 patients (35.1% female, median age 61.7 years), with pancreatic (66.7%), small-intestine (14%) or lung (7%) NETs. Most patients (57.9%) had extra-hepatic metastases and G3 NETs accounted for 40.3% of cases. Patients received a median of 17 cycles of treatment, including a median of seven cycles of bevacizumab and/or 5-fluorouracile maintenance. Median TTF was 15.5 months (95% CI: 9.8-21.2) and was shorter in patients age > 60 years (HR 2.56, 95% CI: 1.16-5.64), p = .020) and >1 previous systemic treatment line (HR 4.15, 95% CI: 1.96-8.78), p < .001). The ORR was 42.9% and was higher in cases of performance status at 0 (OR 5.25, 95% CI: 1.13-24.35), p = .034) and G3 NET (OR 5.39, 95% CI: 1.23-23.52), p = .025). The FOLFOX-bevacizumab combination has promising efficacy in patients with progressive metastatic NETs and notably for G3 NETs, for which optimal treatment as yet remains ill-defined. Hence, it could be a relevant alternative to alkylating-based chemotherapy in this setting and should be further explored prospectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND PRSS1 and PRSS2 constitute the only functional copies of a tandemly-arranged five-trypsinogen-gene cluster (i.e., PRSS1, PRSS3P1, PRSS3P2, TRY7 and PRSS2) on chromosome 7q35. Variants in PRSS1 and PRSS2, including missense and copy number variants (CNVs), have been reported to predispose to or protect against chronic pancreatitis (CP). We wondered whether a common trypsinogen pseudogene deletion CNV (that removes two of the three trypsinogen pseudogenes, PRSS3P2 and TRY7) might be associated with CP causation/predisposition. METHODS We analyzed the common PRSS3P2 and TRY7 deletion CNV in a total of 1536 CP patients and 3506 controls from France, Germany, India and Japan by means of quantitative fluorescent multiplex polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS We demonstrated that the deletion CNV variant was associated with a protective effect against CP in the French, German and Japanese cohorts whilst a trend toward the same association was noted in the Indian cohort. Meta-analysis under a dominant model yielded a pooled odds ratio (OR) of 0.68 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.52-0.89; p = 0.005) whereas an allele-based meta-analysis yielded a pooled OR of 0.84 (95% CI 0.77-0.92; p = 0.0001). This protective effect is explicable by reference to the recent finding that the still functional PRSS3P2/TRY7 pseudogene enhancers upregulate pancreatic PRSS2 expression. CONCLUSIONS The common PRSS3P2 and TRY7 deletion CNV was associated with a reduced risk for CP. This finding provides additional support for the emerging view that dysregulated PRSS2 expression represents a discrete mechanism underlying CP predisposition or protection.

Abstract
Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are orchestrators of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) microenvironment. Previously we described four CAF subtypes with specific molecular and functional features. Here, we have refined our CAF subtype signatures using RNAseq and immunostaining with the goal of defining bioinformatically the phenotypic stromal and tumor epithelial states associated with CAF diversity. We used primary CAF cultures grown from patient PDAC tumors, human data sets (in-house and public, including single-cell analyses), genetically engineered mouse PDAC tissues, and patient-derived xenografts (PDX) grown in mice. We found that CAF subtype RNAseq signatures correlated with immunostaining. Tumors rich in periostin-positive CAFs were significantly associated with shorter overall survival of patients. Periostin-positive CAFs were characterized by high proliferation and protein synthesis rates and low α-smooth muscle actin expression and were found in peri-/pre-tumoral areas. They were associated with highly cellular tumors and with macrophage infiltrates. Podoplanin-positive CAFs were associated with immune-related signatures and recruitment of dendritic cells. Importantly, we showed that the combination of periostin-positive CAFs and podoplanin-positive CAFs was associated with specific tumor microenvironment features in terms of stromal abundance and immune cell infiltrates. Podoplanin-positive CAFs identified an inflammatory CAF (iCAF)-like subset, whereas periostin-positive CAFs were not correlated with the published myofibroblastic CAF (myCAF)/iCAF classification. Taken together, these results suggest that a periostin-positive CAF is an early, activated CAF, associated with aggressive tumors, whereas a podoplanin-positive CAF is associated with an immune-related phenotype. These two subpopulations cooperate to define specific tumor microenvironment and patient prognosis and are of putative interest for future therapeutic stratification of patients. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG)-recommended five variant classification categories (pathogenic, likely pathogenic, uncertain significance, likely benign, and benign) have been widely used in medical genetics. However, these guidelines are fundamentally constrained in practice owing to their focus upon Mendelian disease genes and their dichotomous classification of variants as being either causal or not. Herein, we attempt to expand the ACMG guidelines into a general variant classification framework that takes into account not only the continuum of clinical phenotypes, but also the continuum of the variants' genetic effects, and the different pathological roles of the implicated genes. MAIN BODY As a disease model, we employed chronic pancreatitis (CP), which manifests clinically as a spectrum from monogenic to multifactorial. Bearing in mind that any general conceptual proposal should be based upon sound data, we focused our analysis on the four most extensively studied CP genes, PRSS1, CFTR, SPINK1 and CTRC. Based upon several cross-gene and cross-variant comparisons, we first assigned the different genes to two distinct categories in terms of disease causation: CP-causing (PRSS1 and SPINK1) and CP-predisposing (CFTR and CTRC). We then employed two new classificatory categories, "predisposing" and "likely predisposing", to replace ACMG's "pathogenic" and "likely pathogenic" categories in the context of CP-predisposing genes, thereby classifying all pathologically relevant variants in these genes as "predisposing". In the case of CP-causing genes, the two new classificatory categories served to extend the five ACMG categories whilst two thresholds (allele frequency and functional) were introduced to discriminate "pathogenic" from "predisposing" variants. CONCLUSION Employing CP as a disease model, we expand ACMG guidelines into a five-category classification system (predisposing, likely predisposing, uncertain significance, likely benign, and benign) and a seven-category classification system (pathogenic, likely pathogenic, predisposing, likely predisposing, uncertain significance, likely benign, and benign) in the context of disease-predisposing and disease-causing genes, respectively. Taken together, the two systems constitute a general variant classification framework that, in principle, should span the entire spectrum of variants in any disease-related gene. The maximal compliance of our five-category and seven-category classification systems with the ACMG guidelines ought to facilitate their practical application.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is existing evidence on the potential role of chronic inflammation in the pathogenesis of pancreatic cancer (PC) and on how risk may be modulated by dietary factors. Pro-inflammatory diets are suggested to be associated with increased risk of PC but, so far, evidence remains not conclusive. We examined the association between the dietary inflammatory potential and PC risk within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study, which includes 450,112 participants. METHODS After a 14-year follow-up, a total of 1239 incident PC cases were included in this study. The inflammatory potential of the diet was estimated using an Inflammatory Score of the Diet (ISD). Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between the ISD and PC were estimated using multivariable Cox regression models, adjusted for known risk factors for PC. RESULTS Participants with higher ISDs had a higher risk of developing PCs. In the fully adjusted multivariate model, the risk of PC increased by 11% (HR 1.11, 95% CI 1.02-1.22) for 1 point each standard deviation increase in the ISD score. Neither obesity nor any other known risk factor for PC showed statistically significant interactions. CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first prospective study reporting a positive relationship between the inflammatory potential of diet and PC. Since early diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer might be challenging, prevention remains the major hope for reducing the burden of this disease.

Abstract
Isolated hepatic localizations of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are generally considered as metastatic NETs of unknown primary but could correspond to primary hepatic NETs (PHNETs), a poorly explored entity. We aimed to describe the clinicopathological and molecular features of PHNETs and compare them with other primary NETs. We assembled a retrospective cohort of patients managed for hepatic localization of NET without extra-hepatic primary tumor after exhaustive clinical, imaging and immunohistochemical characterization. We performed whole-exome sequencing with mutational and copy number analysis. Transcriptomic profiles were compared to pancreatic (n=31), small-bowel (n=22) and lung (n=15) NETs using principal component analysis, unsupervised clustering and gene-set enrichment analysis. Among 27 screened patients, 16 had PHNET (solitary tumor in 63%, median size 11 cm, G2 NETs in 81%) following clinical and pathological review. DNA analyses showed "foregut-like" genomic profiles with frequent alterations in pathways of Fanconi DNA repair (75%), histone modifiers (58%), adherens junctions (58%) and cell cycle control (50%). The most frequently involved genes were KMT2A (58%), ATM (42%), CDH1, CDKN2C, FANCF and MEN1 (33% each). Transcriptomic analyses showed that PHNETs clustered closer to foregut (pancreatic, lung) NETs than to midgut (small-bowel) NETs, while remaining a distinct entity with specific profile. Assessment of potentially predictive biomarkers suggested efficacy of treatments usually active in foregut NETs. In conclusion, PHNETs display a foregut-like molecular profile distinct from other types of NETs, with recurrent molecular alterations. Upon exhaustive work-up to exclude unrecognized primary tumor, PHNETs should not be considered metastatic NETs from an unknown primary. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents the fourth cause of cancer-associated death in the West. This type of cancer has a very poor prognosis notably due to the development of chemoresistance when treatments including gemcitabine and Abraxane (Nab-paclitaxel) were prescribed. The identification of new treatment circumventing this chemoresistance represents a key challenge. Previous studies demonstrated that the activation of orexin receptor type 1 (OX1R), which was ectopically expressed in PDAC, by its natural ligand named orexin-A (OxA), led to anti-tumoral effect resulting in the activation of mitochondrial pro-apoptotic mechanism. Here, we demonstrated that OxA inhibited the pancreatic cancer cell (AsPC-1) growth and inhibited the tumor volume in preclinical models as effectively as gemcitabine and Nab-paclitaxel. Moreover, the combination therapy including OxA plus gemcitabine or OxA plus Nab-paclitaxel was additive on the inhibition of cancer cell growth and tumor development. More importantly, the treatment by OxA of chemoresistant tumors to gemcitabine or Nab-paclitaxel obtained by successive xenografts in mice revealed that OxA was able to induce a strong inhibition of tumor development, whereas no OxA resistance was identified in tumors. The OX1R/OxA system might be an innovative and powerful alternative treatment of chemoresistant PDAC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Non-alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (NACP) frequently develops in the setting of genetic susceptibility associated with alterations in genes that are highly expressed in the pancreas. However, the genetic basis of NACP remains unresolved in a significant number of patients warranting a search for further risk genes. DESIGN We analyzed CUZD1, which encodes the CUB and zona pellucida-like domains 1 protein that is found in high levels in pancreatic acinar cells. We sequenced the coding region in 1163 European patients and 2018 European controls. In addition, we analyzed 297 patients and 1070 controls from Japan. We analyzed secretion of wild-type and mutant CUZD1 from transfected cells using Western blotting. RESULTS In the European cohort, we detected 30 non-synonymous variants. Using different prediction tools (SIFT, CADD, PROVEAN, PredictSNP) or the combination of these tools, we found accumulation of predicted deleterious variants in patients (p-value range 0.002-0.013; OR range 3.1-5.2). No association was found in the Japanese cohort, in which 13 non-synonymous variants were detected. Functional studies revealed >50% reduced secretion of 7 variants, however, these variants were not significantly enriched in European CP patients. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that CUZD1 might be a novel susceptibility gene for NACP. How these variants predispose to pancreatitis remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Findings and limitations of previous studies on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) and pancreatic cancer risk support conducting further research in prospective cohorts. METHODS We conducted a prospective case-control study nested within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort. Participants were 513 pancreatic cancer cases and 1020 matched controls. Concentrations of 22 POPs were measured in plasma collected at baseline. RESULTS Some associations were observed at higher concentrations of p, p'-DDT, trans-nonachlor, β-hexachlorocyclohexane and the sum of six organochlorine pesticides and of 16 POPs. The odds ratio (OR) for the upper quartile of trans-nonachlor was 1.55 (95% confidence interval 1.06-2.26; P for trend = 0.025). Associations were stronger in the groups predefined as most valid (participants having fasted >6 h, with microscopic diagnostic confirmation, normal weight, and never smokers), and as most relevant (follow-up ≥10 years). Among participants having fasted >6 h, the ORs were relevant for 10 of 11 exposures. Higher ORs were also observed among cases with microscopic confirmation than in cases with a clinical diagnosis, and among normal-weight participants than in the rest of participants. Among participants with a follow-up ≥10 years, estimates were higher than in participants with a shorter follow-up (for trans-nonachlor: OR = 2.14, 1.01 to 4.53, P for trend = 0.035). Overall, trans-nonachlor, three PCBs and the two sums of POPs were the exposures most clearly associated with pancreatic cancer risk. CONCLUSIONS Individually or in combination, most of the 22 POPs analysed did not or only moderately increased the risk of pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
The recent discovery of TRPV6 as a pancreatitis susceptibility gene served to identify a novel mechanism of chronic pancreatitis (CP) due to Ca2+ dysregulation. Herein, we analyzed TRPV6 in 81 probands with hereditary CP (HCP), 204 probands with familial CP (FCP), and 462 patients with idiopathic CP (ICP) by targeted next-generation sequencing. We identified 25 rare nonsynonymous TRPV6 variants, 18 of which had not been previously reported. All 18 variants were characterized by a Ca2+ imaging assay, with 8 being identified as functionally deficient. Evaluation of functionally deficient variants in the three CP cohorts revealed two novel findings: (i) functionally deficient TRPV6 variants appear to occur more frequently in HCP/FCP patients than in ICP patients (3.2% vs. 1.5%) and (ii) functionally deficient TRPV6 variants found in HCP and FCP probands appear to be more frequently coinherited with known risk variants in SPINK1, CTRC, and/or CFTR than those found in ICP patients (66.7% vs 28.6%). Additionally, genetic analysis of available HCP and FCP family members revealed complex patterns of inheritance in some families. Our findings confirm that functionally deficient TRPV6 variants represent an important contributor to CP. Importantly, functionally deficient TRPV6 variants account for a significant proportion of cases of HCP/FCP.

Abstract
Most patient with pancreatic cancer are treated by chemotherapy. Treatments selection are not personalized on the tumor characteristics. Signatures predicting chemotherapy efficiency are essential for personalizing treatments. An RNA signature of gemcitabine-sensitivity is developed leveraged on the dissimilarities between 2D and 3D in vitro models. Combining different in vitro models can help in defining clinically efficient transcriptomic signatures.
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients are frequently treated by chemotherapy. Even if personalized therapy based on molecular analysis can be performed for some tumors, PDAC regimens selection is still mainly based on patients' performance status and expected efficacy. Therefore, the establishment of molecular predictors of chemotherapeutic efficacy could potentially improve prognosis by tailoring treatments. We have recently developed an RNA-based signature that predicts the efficacy of adjuvant gemcitabine using 38 PDAC primary cell cultures. While demonstrated its efficiency, a significant association with the classical/basal-like PDAC spectrum was observed. We hypothesized that this flaw was due to the basal-like biased phenotype of cellular models used in our strategy. To overcome this limitation, we generated a prospective cohort of 27 consecutive biopsied derived pancreatic organoids (BDPO) and include them in the signature identification strategy. As BDPO's do not have the same biased phenotype as primary cell cultures we expect they can compensate one with each other and cover a broader range of molecular phenotypes. We then obtained an improved signature predicting gemcitabine sensibility that was validated in a cohort of 300 resected PDAC patients that have or have not received adjuvant gemcitabine. We demonstrated a significant association between the improved signature and the overall and disease-free survival in patients predicted as sensitive and treated with adjuvant gemcitabine. We propose then that including BDPO along primary cell cultures represent a powerful strategy that helps to overcome primary cell cultures limitations producing unbiased RNA-based signatures predictive of adjuvant treatments in PDAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vasoactive intestinal peptide-secreting tumor (VIPoma) is a very rare, life-threatening, functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (pNET). The efficacy of antitumor therapies against functioning symptoms and tumor burden have been poorly described in VIPoma. OBJECTIVE Describe the impact of treatments on the secretory syndrome, tumor burden and survival in patients with VIPoma. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients with VIPoma treated in seven French expert centers between 1990 and 2016. Diagnostic of VIPoma was reassessed using strict criteria. We evaluated the antisecretory efficacy (>50 % decrease of daily bowel movements), and antitumor efficacy (RECIST 1.1) of all treatments received. RESULTS Twenty-two patients were included. pNETs were mostly metastatic (77 %) and classified as grade 2 (83 %). Median follow-up was 78.2 months. Surgical excision of nonmetastatic VIPoma effectively controlled the secretory syndrome. Although 4/5 patients had metastatic recurrences, all patients were alive after median post-operative follow-up of 171 months. Among the 87 treatments received for metastatic VIPoma, curative-intent surgery (n = 14), somatostatin analogs alone (n = 11), chemotherapy (n = 23), transarterial liver embolization (TALE) (n = 14), everolimus (n = 10) and sunitinib (n = 7) achieved, respectively, 100 %, 67 %, 83 %, 50 %, 20 % and 100 % antisecretory efficacy. The 5-year OS rate was 63.6 %, with pejorative impact of higher Ki-67 index (P = 0.045) and higher plasma VIP concentration (P = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS Surgical resection of localized VIPoma is effective but rarely curative. For metastatic VIPoma, curative-intent surgery, chemotherapy and sunitinib are the therapeutic options that best combined antitumor and antisecretory efficacies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence is accumulating that immune cells play a prominent role in pancreatic cancer etiology but prospective investigations are missing. METHODS We conducted a nested case-control study within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study with 502 pairs of incident pancreatic cancer cases and matched controls. Relative counts of circulating immune cells (neutrophils and lymphocyte sublineages: total CD3+, CD8+, CD4+, and FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) relative to nucleated cells, (white blood cells) were measured by qRT-PCR. ORs with 95% confidence intervals were estimated using logistic regressions, modeling relative counts of immune cells on a continuous scale. RESULTS Neither relative counts of immune cell types taken individually, nor mutually adjusted for each other were associated with pancreatic cancer risks. However, in subgroup analyses by strata of lag-time, higher relative counts of Tregs and lower relative counts of CD8+ were significantly associated with an increased pancreatic cancer risks in participants diagnosed within the first 5 years of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS These results might reflect reverse causation, due to higher relative counts of Tregs and lower counts of CD8+ cells among individuals with more advanced stages of latent pancreatic cancer, who are closer to the point of developing clinical manifest disease. IMPACT We have shown, for the first time, that increased relative counts of regulatory T cells and lower relative counts of CD8+, cytotoxic T cells may be associated with pancreatic cancer risk or relatively late-stage tumor development.See related commentary by Michaud and Kelsey, p. 2176.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The calcium sensing receptor (CASR) is a G protein-coupled receptor that is responsible for assessing extracellular Ca2+ levels and thus plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. Hypercalcemia is a metabolic risk factor for pancreatitis and rare CASR variants have been described in patients with chronic pancreatitis. At the carboxy-terminal tail of CASR, there is a cluster of three common polymorphisms, p.A986S (rs1801725), p.R990G (rs1042636) and p.Q1011E (rs1801726), which have been associated with chronic pancreatitis in various studies, but with conflicting results. METHODS We examined 542 German and 339 French patients with chronic pancreatitis as well as 1025 German controls for the 3 common CASR polymorphism by melting curve analysis. For comparison, we used genotype data from 583 French controls from a previous study. In addition, we functionally analyzed the three variants by NFAT and SRE luciferase reporter systems as well as Western blotting and verified cell surface expression by ELISA. RESULTS In both cohorts, neither the genotype nor the allele frequencies differed significantly between patients and controls. In both luciferase assays, p.R990G showed a significant leftward shift, indicating an increased responsiveness of the receptor. p.A986S showed a leftward shift in the SRE but not in the NFAT reporter assay, while the responsiveness of p.Q1011E did not differ from the wild-type. These functional studies therefore do not support the contributions of variant CASR to increasing the risk of pancreatitis. CONCLUSIONS The three frequent CASR polymorphisms are unlikely to increase the risk for chronic pancreatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is the deadliest cancer worldwide with a 98% loss-of-life expectancy and a 30% increase in the disability-adjusted life years during the last decade in Europe. The disease cannot be effectively prevented nor being early detected. When diagnosed, 80% of patients have tumors that are in incurable stages, while for those who undergo surgery, 80% of patients will present with local or distant metastasis. Importantly, chemotherapies are far from being effective. OBJECTIVE Pancreatic cancer represents a great challenge and, at the same time, a huge opportunity for advancing our understanding on the basis of the disease, the molecular profiles, that would lead to develop tools for early detection and effective treatments, thus, boosting patient survival. RESULTS Research on pancreatic cancer has being receiving little or minimal funds from European funding bodies. UEG is calling for public-private partnerships that would effectively fund research on pancreatic cancer. CONCLUSION This would increase our understanding of this disease and better treatment, through pan-European efforts that take advantage of the strong academic European research landscape on pancreatic cancer, and the contribution by the industry of all sizes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the value of MRI in differentiating benign (b-MCN) and malignant (m-MCN) MCN. European guidelines suggest that certain mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCN) of the pancreas can be conservatively managed. METHODS A retrospective single-center study of consecutive patients with resected MCN. MRIs were independently reviewed by two readers blinded to the pathological results. The authors compared b-MCN (i.e., mucinous-cystadenoma comprising high-grade dysplasia (HGD)) and m-MCN (i.e., cystadenocarcinoma). RESULTS Sixty-three patients (62 women [98%]) with 63 MCN (6 m-MCN, 2 HGD) were included. m-MCN tumors had a tendency to be larger than b-MCN (median 86 [25-103] vs. 45 [17-130] mm, p = .055). The combination of signal heterogeneity on T2-weighted imaging, wall thickness ≥ 5 mm, the presence of mural nodules ≥ 9 mm, and enhancing septa had an area under the ROC curve of 0.97 (95% CI 0.91-1.00) for the diagnosis of m-MCN. A total of 24 (37%), 20 (32%), 10 (16%), 5 (8%), and 4 (6%) out of 63 MCNs showed 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 of these features, respectively. The corresponding rate of m-MCN was 0%, 0%, 10%, 20%, and 100%, respectively, with a good-to-excellent inter-reader agreement. Patterns with a high NPV for m-MCN included an absence of enhancing septa or walls (NPV 97% and 100%, respectively), wall thickness < 3 mm (NPV 100%), and no mural nodules (NPV 100%). CONCLUSIONS A combination of 4 imaging features suggests malignant MCN on MRI. On the other hand, visualization of a thin non-enhancing wall with no mural nodules suggests benign MCN. KEY POINTS • A heterogenous signal on T2-weighted MRI, a ≥ 5-mm-thick wall, mural nodules ≥ 9 mm, and/or enhancing septa suggest malignant MCNs. • A thin non-enhancing wall with no mural nodules suggests benign MCNs. • MRI should be performed in the pre-therapeutic evaluation of MCN to help determine the therapeutic strategy in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety of gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (GnP) among elderly patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains poorly understood. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GnP in this setting. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively included all consecutive patients aged ≥65 years with histologically proven PDAC who received at least one cycle of GnP (January 2014 to May 2018) in four academic centers. The primary endpoints were toxicity and overall survival (OS). Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response rate. We compared patients aged ≥ or <75 years. RESULTS The study included 127 patients; among them 42 (33.1%) were aged ≥ 75 years. Fifty-seven and seventy patients received GnP as the first-line and the second-line treatment or beyond, respectively. Sixty-seven patients had at least one grade 3/4 adverse event, the most frequent being neutropenia and peripheral neuropathy. No deaths were related to toxicity. OS (median, 8.0 months; 95% confidence interval (CI), 5.8-10.2) and PFS (median, 5.5 months; 95% CI, 4.8-6.2) were similar for patients aged <75 or ≥75 years in the whole cohort and among patients receiving GnP as the first-line treatment. Cephalic PDAC, liver metastases, hypoalbuminemia, and GnP received beyond the first-line were associated with a significantly shorter OS on the multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION GnP is well tolerated and effective in elderly patients with advanced PDAC, even patients aged ≥75 years. The data from daily clinical practice are consistent with the results reported with first-line treatment and highlight the relevance of GnP administration in elderly patients.

Abstract
CONTEXT The relative incidence of acute pancreatitis, ischemic cardiovascular disease, and diabetes in hyperchylomicronemic patients exhibiting familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) or multifactorial chylomicronemia syndrome (MCS) is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective was to study the occurrence of these events in FCS and MCS patients compared with the general population. METHODS Twenty-nine FCS and 124 MCS patients, with genetic diagnosis, in 4 lipid clinics were matched with 413 controls. Individual hospital data linked to the national claims database were collected between 2006 and 2016. The occurrence of complications was retrospectively assessed before follow-up and during a median follow-up time of 9.8 years, for 1500 patient years of follow-up. RESULTS Patients with FCS were younger than those with MCS (34.3 ± 13.6 vs 45.2 ± 12.6 years, P < 0.01). During the study period, 58.6% of the FCS patients versus 19.4% of the MCS patients had at least 1 episode of acute hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis (AHP) (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.6; P < 0.01). Conversely, the ischemic risk was lower in FCS than in MCS (HR = 0.3; P = 0.05). The risk of venous thrombosis was similar in both groups. The incidence of diabetes was high in both groups compared with matched controls (odds ratio [OR] = 22.8; P < 0.01 in FCS and OR = 30.3; P < 0.01 in MCS). CONCLUSION The incidence of AHP was much higher in FCS than in MCS patients, whereas the incidence of ischemic cardiovascular events was found to be increased in MCS versus FCS patients and a representative matched control group. Differences in both triglyceride-rich lipoproteins metabolism and comorbidities in MCS versus FCS drive the occurrence of different patterns of complications.

Abstract
A gain-of-function missense variant in the CELA3B gene, p.Arg90Cys (c.268C>T), has recently been reported to cause pancreatitis in an extended pedigree. Herein, we sequenced the CELA3B gene in 644 genetically unexplained French chronic pancreatitis (CP) patients (all unrelated) and 566 controls. No obvious loss-of-function variants were identified. None of the six low-frequency or common missense variants detected showed significant association with CP. Nor did the aggregate rare/very rare missense variants (n = 14) show any significant association with CP. However, p.Arg90Leu (c.269G>T), which was found in four patients but no controls, and affects the same amino acid as p.Arg90Cys, serves to revert p.Arg90 to the human elastase ancestral allele. As p.Arg90Leu has previously been shown to exert a similar functional effect to that of p.Arg90Cys, our findings not only confirm the involvement of CELA3B in the etiology of CP but also pinpoint a new evolutionarily adaptive site in the human genome.
