Abstract
Purpose To compare the efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy (ICT) followed by chemoradiotherapy (CRT) or bioradiotherapy (BRT) for larynx preservation (LP). Patients and Methods Previously untreated patients with stage III to IV larynx/hypopharynx squamous cell carcinoma received three cycles of ICT—docetaxel and cisplatin 75 mg/m2 each on day 1 and fluorouracil 750 mg/m2 per day on days 1 through 5. Poor responders (< 50% response) underwent salvage surgery. Responders (≥ 50% response) were randomly assigned to conventional radiotherapy (RT; 70 Gy) with concurrent cisplatin 100 mg/m2 per day on days 1, 22, and 43 of RT (arm A) or concurrent cetuximab 400 mg/m2 loading dose and 250 mg/m2 per week during RT (arm B). Primary end point was LP at 3 months. Secondary end points were larynx function preservation (LFP) and overall survival (OS) at 18 months. Results Of the 153 enrolled patients, 116 were randomly assigned after ICT (60, arm A; 56, arm B). Overall toxicity of both CRT and BRT was substantial following ICT. However, treatment compliance was higher in the BRT arm. In an intent-to-treat analysis, there was no significant difference in LP at 3 months between arms A and B (95% and 93%, respectively), LFP (87% and 82%, respectively), and OS at 18 months (92% and 89%, respectively). There were fewer local treatment failures in arm A than in arm B; salvage surgery was feasible in arm B only. Conclusion There is no evidence that one treatment was superior to the other or could improve the outcome reported with ICT followed by RT alone (French Groupe Oncologie Radiothérapie Tête et Cou [GORTEC] 2000-01 trial [Induction CT by Cisplatin, 5FU With or Without Docetaxel in Patients With T3 and T4 Larynx and Hypopharynx Carcinoma]). The protocol that can best compare with RT alone after ICT is still to be determined.

Abstract
26 Background: Patients with upfront metastases at the time of prostate cancer (PC) diagnosis are less frequent than in the past in Western countries, but still represent 5-10% of all patients and almost one half of PC patients will eventually die of the disease. Prognostic factors (lymph node metastases/appendicular vs axial bone disease, performance status > 1, Gleason score > 8 and PSA > 65 ng/ml) have been proposed (Glass et al., 2003), leading to the definition of three subgroups with good, intermediate and poor prognosis. However, the current natural history of metastatic prostate cancer has not been well described. Methods: Patients with hormone sensitive metastatic PC were randomized to receive continuous androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) plus docetaxel (75 mg/m²/21d up to 9 cycles) and prednisone or ADT alone. Glass risk groups were used as stratification factors. Results: From October 2004 to December 2008, 385 pts were included. They were distributed into good (50%), intermediate (29%), and poor (21%) prognosis groups. The median follow up was 50 months [95% CI: 49 - 54]. The primary endpoint analysis showed no difference in overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.01 [95%CI: 0.75-1.36]) between the 2 arms but a significant PFS improvement was observed in the docetaxel group (HR: 0.75 [0.59-0.94] p=0.0147) (Gravis, ESMO 2012). The median OS in the ADT alone arm was 54 months [42-NR]. It was 69 [95% CI: 60.9-NR], 47 [95% CI: 37.7-NR, HR = 1.6] and 37 [95% CI: 28.5-58.9, HR = 2.12] months respectively in the good, intermediate, and poor prognosis groups (p=0.001) in the whole cohort. No interaction between prognosis groups and treatment was found. A detailed analysis using the Cox model will be presented. Conclusions: At the present time, median life expectancy of patients with metastatic PC seems to exceed 4 years. Subgroups with favorable or unfavorable outcome can be identified. Clinical trial information: NCT00055731.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The French Society of Otorhinolaryngology (SFORL) set up a work group to draw up guidelines for initial staging of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. Locoregional and remote extension assessment are dealt with in two separate reports. The present part 3 deals with the assessment of frequent associated symptoms and pathologies, requiring early treatment and the collection of data on a certain number of clinical and paraclinical parameters for therapeutic decision-making in the multidisciplinary team meeting. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multidisciplinary critical analysis of the literature was conducted. General assessment here covers screening, assessment and initial management of the following: usual risk factors (smoking, alcohol, HPV), the most frequent medical comorbidities, nutritional status, social and psychological status, dental status, pain and possible anemia. As oncologic management frequently associates surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy, the underlying examinations should be early, as part of initial staging. The levels of evidence for the examinations were estimated so as to grade guidelines, failing which expert consensuses were established. RESULTS The high rates of pain, malnutrition and anemia call for systematic screening and early management, especially as rapidly effective treatments exist. Assessing comorbidity and social and psychological status enables general health status to be assessed, along with possible contraindications to the usual treatments. Tracheal intubation problems may require intubation under flexible endoscopy or jet-ventilation by inter-cricothyroid catheterization from the diagnostic endoscopy stage. Assessment and adapted dental care should be conducted if radiation therapy is likely or certain. CONCLUSION Early management of symptoms and comorbidity and anticipation of subsequent treatment are intended to shorten initial staging time and to collate the data needed for therapeutic decision-making. This assessment should be performed at the same time as the locoregional and remote extension assessment, and is obviously to be adapted according to tumoral extension stage and the possible treatment options.

Abstract
The aim of this article is to make a synthesis of news headlines concerning the management of upper tract urinary carcinoma. For non muscle-invasive upper tract urinary tumors, ureteroscopy with biopsies is a part of the systematic diagnostic assessment in case of suspicious imaging. For muscle-invasive upper tract urinary tumors, there is low level of evidence of expert's opinion guidelines about neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy. These therapeutic strategies can be sometimes discussed, by arguing analogy with bladder tumors.

Abstract
5031 Background: Cisplatin plus etoposide-based chemotherapy is the recommended treatment and results in a high cure rate in patients (pts) with metastatic seminoma (Eur Urol 2008, 53: 478–96). Whether pts with good-prognosis and intermediate-prognosis metastatic seminoma should be treated differently or not has not been defined. Methods: From December 1999 to September 2008, pts with pure seminoma, a normal serum alpha-feto protein value, and evidence of metastases were included in this prospective study. Pts with a good prognosis according to the IGGCCG classification were treated with 4 cycles of EP (cisplatin 20 mg/m2/day and etoposide 100 mg/m2/day x 5 days, every 3 weeks). Pts with an intermediate prognosis according to the IGCCCG or MRC classifications (extra-pulmonary visceral metastases or supra-diaphragmatic metastases plus serum LDH> 2 x N) (J Clin Oncol. 1997;15:594–603; Eur J Cancer. 1999;33:1347–1350) were treated with 4 cycles of VIP + G-CSF (cisplatin 20 mg/m2/day, ifosfamide 1.2 g/m2/day, and etoposide 75 mg/m2/day x 5 days, every 3 weeks + G-CSF). Toxicity was assessed using the NCI-CTC scale. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: 133 pts were included in this study. Median age was 36 years (20–66). The median follow-up is 3.6 years (0.4–9.1). 110 (83%) pts had good-prognosis metastatic seminoma and received EP. Grade 3–4 toxicity included mainly neutropenia (41%) and neutropenic fever (13%). The 3-year PFS rate in good-prognosis pts is 94% (87–97), and the OS rate is 99% (94–100). 23 (17%) pts had intermediate-prognosis disease and received VIP + G-CSF. Toxicity included grade 3–4 neutropenia (32%), neutropenic fever (18%), grade 3–4 thrombocytopenia (18%), and grade 3–4 anemia (19%). Platelet and erythrocyte transfusions were required in 32% and 36% of pts, respectively . The 3-year PFS rate is 86% (67–95), and the OS rate is 91% (72–97) in intermediate-prognosis pts. Overall, 92 pts (69%) had post-chemotherapy residual masses and 75 pts (56%) were managed with 18Flurorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography. Conclusions: This risk-adapted chemotherapy yielded an excellent outcome with an OS rate of 97% in metastatic seminoma. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
6010 Background: Induction chemotherapy (ICT) followed by irradiation (RT) and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) are validated options for LP. Docetaxel-based ICT, concurrent cetuximab and RT are new options and SCRT (ICT followed by CRT) has been reported as a potential new approach. However, to date there are no data assessing SCRT specifically for LP. Methods: Previously untreated patients (pts) with larynx or hypopharynx squamous cell carcinoma and candidates for a total laryngectomy were eligible for this randomized phase II study. Eligible pts received 3 cycles of ICT (docetaxel and cisplatin both 75 mg/m2 on day 1 and 5-FU 750 mg/m2/day on days 1–5). In case of response ≥ 50 % pts were randomized to receive either in arm A: RT (70 Gy) with cisplatin (100 mg/m2 on days 1, 22 and 43 of RT) or in arm B: Cetuximab (400 mg/m2 loading dose before RT and 250 mg/m2 on the first day of the 7 weeks of RT. Pts with response < 50% had salvage surgery. Primary endpoint was LP 3 months after treatment, secondary endpoints were larynx function preservation at 18 months, quality of function and tolerance to treatment. Results: From March 2006 to April 2008 (end of accrual), 153 pts with stage III-IV larynx/hypopharynx cancer were enrolled in the study and could start ICT. Of them 74 % could receive the planned ICT while the others had either reduced dosages or less than 3 cycles. Toxic deaths occurred in 3 pts (2%). Of the 147 evaluable pts after ICT, 22 were non-responders (15%), 4 pts were withdrawn from the study, 6 responding pts with ICT-related toxicity precluding any further cisplatin could not be randomized and finally 115 pts could be randomized (59 in arm A and 56 in arm B). 3 months after treatment there was no significant difference in LP (93% in arm A and 96% in arm B). In arm A, 45 % of pts could receive the full CRT protocol vs 71 % in arm B. In arm A 50% of pts had cisplatin-related toxicity (definitive in 52% the cases) while in arm B 26 % of patients had cetuximab-related toxicity (definitive in only 1 case). There was no CRT treatment-related death. Conclusions: SCRT is considered for LP. ICT followed by RT with concurrent cetuximab appeared better tolerated than with concurrent cisplatin with the same LP rate 3 months after treatment. [Table: see text]

Abstract
6005 Background: Platinum-based CT + cetuximab is the first systemic therapy in ∼30 years to show a survival benefit vs platinum-based CT in first-line R/M SCCHN (Vermorken JB, et al. N Engl J Med 2008;359:1116–1127). A retrospective analysis has evaluated the influence of EGFR gene copy number, determined by FISH, on clinical outcome in the EXTREME study. Methods: Pts were randomized to 3-weekly cycles of platinum-based CT (cisplatin 100 mg/m2 or carboplatin AUC 5, day 1; 5-fluorouracil 1000 mg/m2/day continuous infusion, days 1–4) with or without cetuximab (initial dose 400 mg/m2, then 250 mg/m2 weekly). The proportion of FISH+ cells per pt (FISH score) was determined using 5 different enrichment models. Tumors were also classified as FISH+ or FISH- using the Colorado scoring system. Results: In the overall population (n=442), addition of cetuximab significantly improved median OS (10.1 vs 7.4 months; p=0.04). No association between FISH score and OS, PFS, or best overall response was determined for any enrichment model. Pts with Colorado FISH+ tumors were evenly distributed between the CT + cetuximab (50/158) and CT-alone (51/154) arms of the FISH- evaluable population (71% of ITT population). Colorado FISH status had no influence on OS in either treatment arm, on PFS in the CT-alone arm, or on RR in the CT + cetuximab arm (see table ). In the CT + cetuximab arm, pts with FISH+ tumors had a lower risk of progression than pts with FISH- tumors. Higher RRs among pts with FISH- tumors in the CT-alone arm may have been due to twice as many nonevaluable response observations in the FISH+ vs the FISH- population (percentage of pts with SD or PD was comparable). Conclusions: EGFR gene copy number, as determined by FISH, is not a predictive biomarker for cetuximab efficacy in R/M SCCHN. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both induction chemotherapy followed by irradiation and concurrent chemotherapy and radiotherapy have been reported as valuable alternatives to total laryngectomy in patients with advanced larynx or hypopharynx cancer. We report results of the randomized phase 3 trial 24954 from the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer. METHODS Patients with resectable advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the larynx (tumor stage T3-T4) or hypopharynx (T2-T4), with regional lymph nodes in the neck staged as N0-N2 and with no metastasis, were randomly assigned to treatment in the sequential (or control) or the alternating (or experimental) arm. In the sequential arm, patients with a 50% or more reduction in primary tumor size after two cycles of cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil received another two cycles, followed by radiotherapy (70 Gy total). In the alternating arm, a total of four cycles of cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (in weeks 1, 4, 7, and 10) were alternated with radiotherapy with 20 Gy during the three 2-week intervals between chemotherapy cycles (60 Gy total). All nonresponders underwent salvage surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to obtain time-to-event data. RESULTS The 450 patients were randomly assigned to treatment (224 to the sequential arm and 226 to the alternating arm). Median follow-up was 6.5 years. Survival with a functional larynx was similar in sequential and alternating arms (hazard ratio of death and/or event = 0.85, 95% confidence interval = 0.68 to 1.06), as were median overall survival (4.4 and 5.1 years, respectively) and median progression-free interval (3.0 and 3.1 years, respectively). Grade 3 or 4 mucositis occurred in 64 (32%) of the 200 patients in the sequential arm who received radiotherapy and in 47 (21%) of the 220 patients in the alternating arm. Late severe edema and/or fibrosis was observed in 32 (16%) patients in the sequential arm and in 25 (11%) in the alternating arm. CONCLUSIONS Larynx preservation, progression-free interval, and overall survival were similar in both arms, as were acute and late toxic effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Extra-abdominal aggressive fibromatosis (EAAF) is a benign desmoid tumor with a potentially aggressive behavior. Surgical treatment is compromised by a very high rate of recurrence, sometimes with significant morbidity. We conducted a prospective surveillance of our patients (clinical and MRI) with EAAF to search for prognostic factors. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cohort included 17 patients with EAAF. For nine patients, biopsy alone was performed. For eight, the tumor was a recurrence after surgical removal. Patients were seen for a clinical assessment and MRI every six months. RESULTS Median follow-up was 42 months (range 6-114). Three patients worsened clinically with pain or functional impairment. One patient required neurosurgery to control pain (good stable outcome). MRI showed progression for two tumors (12%) but with a short follow-up since diagnosis (9 and 14 months), in one case despite medical treatment. Three tumors regressed and twelve remained stable on successive MRI. On average the tumor growth lasted ten months. DISCUSSION Tumor growth was never noted beyond 36 months. This notion of an interruption in tumor growth is mentioned sporadically in reports on EAAF, which have generally included recurrent tumors. To our knowledge this is the first series reporting tumors left in place a followed with modern imaging techniques. The high rate of spontaneous interruption of tumor growth must be counterbalanced with the difficult task of local treatment: the risk of recurrence is particularly high after surgery and functional sequelae can be significant when wide resection is proposed in an anatomically difficult localization. The precise role for surgery, and combined radiotherapy, remain to be determined. There are only scarce reports on general treatments. Considering these facts, we propose that surgical resection should not be considered the only solution for the treatment of EAAF. Further work is needed to define the useful contribution of simple surveillance of these benign tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess in a phase II open multicentre study the efficacy and tolerance of docetaxel administered every 14 days combined with celecoxib, in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC), and to test the hypothesis that this therapeutic combination would improve overall survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS In all, 48 patients were included with a mean age of 70.4 years and Gleason score of 7.5, all had a satisfactory Karnofsky performance-status score of 92% and a metastatic bone site was measurable in 77%. The mean delay between initial diagnosis and docetaxel administration was 45 months, with a median PSA level increase of 54.8 ng/mL. The therapeutic schedule was: docetaxel (50 mg/m(2)) administered every 14 days (one cycle of two injections at 2 week intervals (Day 1 = Day 28) with a total of six cycles) and simultaneously a daily oral fixed dose of celecoxib (800 mg). RESULTS In all, 237 cycles of docetaxel were administered with a dose reduction in 23 patients at the beginning of a cycle (day 1) and 36 in the middle of a cycle (day 14). The haematological toxicity included anaemia grade 1-2 (78%) and only 10% neutropenia grade 3-4. However, there was only a 15% improvement of pain intensity. The response rate for the total PSA level was 45.5 (30.4-61.1)%, the mean time to progression was 9.3 months and the tumour-response rate was 26.3%. In all, 75% of patients had an overall survival of >14.6 months. CONCLUSION Our results confirm the usefulness of docetaxel for HRPC treatment and show a significant reduction of haematological toxicity with bi-weekly docetaxel administration combined with celecoxib.

Abstract
5025 Background: This trial investigated the efficacy and safety of sorafenib (SOR) vs interferon (IFN) in treatment-naïve patients with clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods: Previously untreated patients with advanced RCC were randomized to continuous oral SOR 400 mg bid or IFN 9 million units tiw (part 1), with an option of dose escalation to SOR 600 mg bid or crossover from IFN to SOR 400 mg bid upon disease progression (part 2). The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Baseline characteristics (ITT, n=189) were similar in SOR (n=97) and IFN (n=92) groups. In the IFN arm, 90/92 patients received treatment; 56 had disease progression, of which 50 crossed to SOR. All 97 patients in the SOR arm received SOR 400 mg bid; 65 had disease progression, of which 44 were dose escalated to 600 mg bid. In part 1, 5% vs 9% patients had complete/partial response, disease control rate (complete/partial response + stable disease) was 79% vs 64%, and median PFS was 5.7 months (CI: 5.0–7.4 months) vs 5.6 months (CI: 3.7–7.4 months) for SOR vs IFN, respectively. Progression-free rates for SOR vs IFN were 90.0% vs 70.4%, 45.9% vs 46.5%, and 11.5% vs 30.4% at 3, 6, and 12 months, respectively. A total of 11% vs 15% of patients receiving SOR or IFN, respectively, discontinued due to adverse events. Overall, the incidence of adverse events was similar between both treatment arms, although skin toxicity (rash and hand-foot skin reaction) and diarrhea occurred more frequently in the SOR group, and flu-like syndrome occurred more frequently in the IFN group. In part 2, median PFS was 5.3 months (CI: 3.6–6.1 months) in patients (n=50) who crossed from IFN to SOR. The median PFS for patients (n=44) with dose escalation to 600 mg bid was 3.6 months (CI: 1.9–5.3 months). The 600 mg bid dose was well tolerated. Conclusions: Although the primary endpoint (PFS) was not reached, SOR showed activity in first-line treatment of RCC based on disease control rate. PFS benefit was observed in patients who crossed to SOR 400 mg bid after progression on IFN. Patients who were dose escalated to 600 mg bid after progression had disease stabilization for a further 3.6 months. Further analyses of possible benefit from SOR dose escalation are required in a larger number of patients. [Table: see text]

Abstract
LBA6016 Background: Final analysis of a larynx preservation study comparing sequential induction chemotherapy and radiotherapy (XRT) versus alternating chemoradiotherapy in treating resectable hypopharynx and larynx cancers. Methods: Patients (pts) with untreated, resectable T3-T4 larynx or T2-T3-T4 hypopharynx, N0-N2, M0 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were randomized in this prospective Phase III trial. Pts received in the control arm (SEQ) 2 cycles of cisplatin/5-FU (CF), followed in case of response by 2 additional cycles of CF, followed on day 80 by XRT (70 Gy / 35 fractions / 7 weeks), or in the experimental arm a CF cycle in weeks 1, 4, 7 and 10, alternated with XRT (20 Gy / 10 fractions) during the three 2-week intervals (ALT). Pts had surgery and postoperative XRT in case of non- response. The primary endpoint was survival with a functional larynx (FLS), with events including local relapse, laryngectomy, tracheotomy, gastrostomy, feeding tube, and death. With 450 patients and 3 yrs minimum followup per pt, this trial was planned to provide 80% power to detect a difference of 11% (from 28% to 39%) in this endpoint at 3 years by 2-sided Logrank test (Type I error 5%). Results: The trial enrolled 450 pts (224 to SEQ, 226 to ALT) from July 1996 to May 2004. Median followup is 6.5 years (yrs). 76 pts discontinued treatment for toxicity (34 on SEQ, 42 on ALT). Hazard ratio (HR) for FLS was 0.84 (95% CI 0.67–1.05, p=0.12) with medians 1.6 yrs on SEQ and 2.3 yrs on ALT. OS (medians of 4.4 and 5.2 yrs) and PFS (medians of 3.0 and 3.1 yrs) were similar for SEQ and ALT, respectively. At 3 yrs, cumulative incidence of larynx events was 46% on SEQ and 38% on ALT (HR 0.79, p=0.09). Grade 3/4 mucositis was seen in 32% of pts who received RTX on SEQ, and 21% on ALT. Late severe edema and/or fibrosis was observed in 16% of pts in SEQ and 11% in ALT. Conclusion: A 8% difference in larynx function preservation rate at 3 yrs favoring ALT did not translate into statistically significant differences. ALT, as a form of chemoradiation, did not lead to increased incidence and severity of mucositis. There were no relevant long-term sequelae in either arm. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
2550 Background: Vγ9Vδ2 (γδ) T lymphocytes, a peripheral blood lymphocyte subset, have shown to be directly cytotoxic against renal carcinoma cells. Lymphocytes γδ can be selectively expanded ex vivo with BrHPP (Phosphostim) and IL-2. We conducted a phase I trial, to define the dose limiting toxicities (DLT), characterize the safety profile, the pharmacodynamics and potential efficacy. Methods: Patients (pts), with progressive mRCC, PS of 0–1 and no organ dysfunction, were included. A one hour iv infusion of IGD was administered alone at cycle 1, and combined with low dose of sc IL-2 (2 MIU/m2 d1 to d7) in the 2 subsequent cycles (every 3 weeks). IGD dose was escalated from 1, up to 8 billions cells (bil). Results: 10 mRCC pts were treated in the study at 3 IGD dose levels: 1 patient at 1 bil, 6 pts at 4 bil, 3 pts at 8 bil. One patient experienced a grade (G)3 hypotension (4 bil, cycle 3), and one patient presented reversible signs of biological disseminated intravascular coagulation (8 bil, cycle 2) graded as a serious adverse event and fulfilling a DLT criteria. At all doses the treatment was well tolerated during the product alone infusion (cycle 1). The most frequent type of adverse events presented was mild to moderate flue like symptomes as fever, chills and asthenia reported during the second and third cycles in the IL-2 combined cycles. Patients presented also gastrointestinal symptoms as nausea and vomiting of grade 1 or 2. Preliminary efficacy assessment evaluation shows: 2 pts were not evaluable, 3 pts were withdrawn for disease progression at 3, 8 and 11 weeks, 2 pts maintained a stable disease for 36 and 63 weeks, and 2 pts are still under follow up with a stable disease at >91 and >124 weeks post treatment. Of note, one patient showed a 19% decrease in tumour size and another one presented a significant pain decrease leading to quality of life improvement. One other patient recently treated, is still under follow-up without progression after >16 weeks post treatment. Conclusion: IGD in combination with sc low dose IL-2 is safe, well tolerated, and shows promising antitumor signs of efficacy. These results warrant further product evaluation in phase 2 clinical trials. [Table: see text]

Abstract
4501 Background: Sorafenib, an oral multi-kinase inhibitor that targets tumor growth and vascularization, significantly prolonged PFS in a Phase III trial with previously treated mRCC patients. This randomized Phase II trial investigated the efficacy and tolerability of sorafenib compared with IFN in first-line therapy of patients with clear-cell RCC. Methods: Untreated patients with mRCC were stratified by MSKCC prognostic score and randomized to receive continuous oral sorafenib 400 mg bid or IFN 9 million units tiw, with an option of dose escalation (600 mg bid sorafenib) or crossover from IFN to sorafenib upon disease progression. The study assessed PFS at 99 events as primary objective, best response (RECIST), overall survival, health-related quality of life, and adverse events (AEs). Results: Baseline characteristics of 188 patients (sorafenib n=97; IFN n = 91) were: median age 62.0 years; MSKCC score: 57% low, 41% intermediate, 1% high; prior nephrectomy: 82%; ECOG 0:1, 55.3%:44.7%. As of January 6, 2006, PFS events have been reported for 64 (34%) patients. Preliminary data showed drug-related AEs of any severity (sorafenib vs IFN) in 50.5% vs 51.6% of patients (≥grade 3: 8.2% vs 11.0%), including diarrhea (24.7% vs 5.5%), fatigue (14.4% vs 20.9%), fever (2.1% vs 18.7%), hypertension (13.4% vs 0%), nausea (5.2% vs 13.2%), flu-like syndrome (1.0% vs 6.6%), hand-foot skin reaction (6.2% vs 0%), and rash/desquamation (4.1% vs 0%). Drug-related metabolic/laboratory abnormalities at grade 3 (no grade 4) comprised hypophosphatemia (21.7% vs. 0%), lipase elevation (5.6% vs. 11.1%), anemia (0% vs. 5.3%) and hypoalbuminemia (0% vs. 3.6%). Five patients receiving IFN withdrew from treatment due to AEs, whereas only one patient withdrew from sorafenib. Conclusions: Sorafenib was generally well tolerated in RCC patients in the first-line setting, with relatively infrequent drug-related AEs ≥grade 3. Full PFS data will be presented at the meeting.

Abstract
4502 Background: Lapatinib is an orally-active, reversible inhibitor of EGFR/ErbB2 tyrosine kinases. In Phase I/II trials, lapatinib has demonstrated activity in patients (pts) with advanced breast cancer. We report the first results of a randomized open-label Phase III trial ( EGF20001 ) of lapatinib vs. hormone therapy (HT) in pts with advanced RCC that express EGFR and/or ErbB2 by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The main endpoints were time to progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS). Methods: Pts with advanced RCC of any histology who had failed first-line cytokine therapy were stratified by Karnofsky performance score (KPS) and number of metastatic sites. Pts were randomized to receive oral lapatinib 1250 mg OD or HT. The primary efficacy endpoint was TTP, with 90% power to detect a 50% increase (i.e. 4 vs. 6 months) at a two-sided 5% significance level. All pt scans were interpreted by independent radiologic review. Results: At the time of the TTP analysis, 417 pts were randomized and 298 TTP events were reported. Demographic and baseline characteristics were similar between both arms; pooled results were: median age: 61 yrs; Stage IV disease: 97%, KPS 90–100: 59%, metastatic sites >2: 49%, prior nephrectomy: 94%, prior interferon therapy: 64%. No unexpected toxicities were observed, and drug-related AE (all grades) for lapatinib vs. HT included rash (44%:3%), diarrhoea (40%:3%). When results from all pts were analysed, median TTP was 15.3 weeks for lapatinib vs. 15.4 weeks for HT (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.94; p = 0.60), and median OS was 46.9 weeks for lapatinib vs. 43.1 weeks for HT (HR=0.88; p=0.29). In the major subgroup of 241 pts with EGFR overexpressed disease (3+ by IHC), median TTP was 15.1 weeks for lapatinib vs. 10.9 weeks for HT (HR = 0.76; p = 0.06), and median OS was 46.0 weeks for lapatinib vs. 37.9 weeks for HT (HR = 0.69; p = 0.02). These results were confirmed by Cox Regression analysis, and additional biomarker evaluation, including FISH, is underway. Conclusions: The EGFR/ErbB2 dual targeted inhibitor, lapatinib, appears to prolong overall survival compared to hormone therapy in advanced RCC pts with overexpressed EGFR who failed prior therapy.

Abstract
A multicentre phase II trial to determine the efficacy of vinflunine as second-line therapy in patients with advanced transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the bladder; secondary objectives were to assess duration of response, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), and to evaluate the toxicity associated with this treatment. Patients had tumours that failed or progressed after first-line platinum-containing regimens for advanced or metastatic disease, or had progressive disease after platinum-containing chemotherapy given with adjuvant or neoadjuvant intent. Response and adverse events were assessed according to WHO criteria and NCI-CTC (version 2), respectively. Out of 51 patients treated with 320 mg m(-2) of vinflunine, nine patients responded to the therapy yielding an overall response rate of 18% (95% CI: 8.4-30.9%), and 67% (95%CI: 52.1-79.3%) achieved disease control (PR+SD). Of note, responses were seen in patients with relatively poor prognostic factors such as a short (<12 months) interval from prior platinum therapy (19%, including an 11% response rate in those progressing <3 months after platinum treatment), prior treatment for metastatic disease (24%), prior treatment with vinca alkaloids (14%) and visceral involvement (20%). The median duration of response was 9.1 months (95% CI: 4.2-15.0) and the median PFS was 3.0 months (95% CI: 2.4-3.8). The median OS was 6.6 months (95% CI: 4.8-7.6). The main haematological toxicity was grade 3-4 neutropenia, observed in 67% of patients (42% of cycles). Febrile neutropenia was observed in five patients (10%) and among them two were fatal. Constipation was frequently observed (but was manageable and noncumulative) and was grade 3-4 in only 8% of patients. The incidence of grade 3 nausea and vomiting was very low (4 and 6% of patients, respectively). Neither grade 3-4 sensory neuropathy nor severe venous irritation was observed. Moreover, and of importance in this particular study population, no grade 3-4 renal function impairment was observed. Vinflunine is an active agent for the treatment of platinum-pretreated bladder cancer, and these results warrant further investigation in phase III trials, either as monotherapy or in combination with other agents as treatment of advanced/metastatic TCC of the bladder.

Abstract
The cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae controls a variety of properties that depend on the nutrient composition of the medium. High activity of the pathway occurs in the presence of rapidly fermented sugars like glucose or sucrose, but only as long as growth is maintained. Growth arrest of fermenting cells or growth on a respiratory carbon source, like glycerol or ethanol, is associated with low activity of the PKA pathway. We have studied how different nutrients trigger rapid activation of the pathway. Glucose and sucrose activate cAMP synthesis through a G-protein-coupled receptor system, consisting of the GPCR Gpr1, the Galpha protein Gpa2 and its RGS protein Rgs2. Glucose is also sensed intracellularly through its phosphorylation. Specific mutations in Gpr1 abolish glucose but not sucrose signalling. Activation of the PKA pathway by addition of a nitrogen source or phosphate to nitrogen- or phosphate-starved cells, respectively, is not mediated by an increase in cAMP. Activation by amino acids is triggered by the general amino acid permease Gap1, which functions as a transporter/receptor. Short truncation of the C-terminus results in constitutively activating alleles. Activation by ammonium uses the ammonium permeases Mep1 and Mep2 as receptor. Specific point mutations in Mep2 uncouple signalling from transport. Activation by phosphate is triggered a.o. by the Pho84 phosphate permease. Several mutations in Pho84 separating transport and signalling or triggering constitutive activation have been obtained.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the activity and safety of OSI-211, the liposomal form of lurtotecan, in patients ineligible for curative surgery or radiotherapy and with metastatic/locoregional recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) and target lesions either within a previously irradiated field ("within") or outside a previously irradiated field ("outside"). OSI-211 was given intravenously over 30 min on days 1 and 8 at 2.4 mg/m2/day, repeated every 21 days (1 cycle). From July 2001 to March 2002, 32 patients from 14 institutions were enrolled in the "within" arm and 18 in the "outside" arm. In the "within" arm, two patients were ineligible because their tumour site was not allowed in the protocol (nasopharynx, skin) and two other patients never started treatment. Of the 46 eligible patients who started treatment, there was one objective response (response rate: 2.2% (95% Confidence Interval (CI): [0-11.5%]). Twelve patients in the "within" arm and 6 in the "outside" arm had stable disease, with a median duration of 18 weeks, 95% CI (12.7-25.7). The median time to progression was 6 weeks (95%CI: [5.9-12.7] weeks). Haematological toxicity was moderate in both arms. The most common haematological toxicity was grade 1-2 anaemia in 79% of patients. Non-haematological toxicity was mild in both arms. The most common grade 3-4 non-haematological toxicity was infection in 8.5% of patients. OSI-211 administered on d1 and d8, every 3 weeks, is well tolerated, but shows only minimal activity in locally advanced/metastatic SCCHN.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to carry out two randomised phase II trials of S16020, a new olivacine derivative, tested as a single agent in patients with recurrent head and neck cancer, using methotrexate as the control arm to validate the results. PATIENTS AND METHODS S16020 at either 80 or 100 mg/m2 was administered as a 3-h infusion every 3 weeks. Methotrexate, 40 or 50 mg/m2, was given by bolus injection, weekly for a minimum of 6 weeks. In total, 36 patients were entered in the randomised studies (25 in an initial study, 11 in a confirmatory study) of whom 24 received S16020 and 12 received methotrexate. RESULTS A scheduled interim analysis showed one patient having a non-confirmed objective response with S16020 and three patients having a confirmed objective response with methotrexate. In the methotrexate group, there were no patients with severe non-haematological toxicity. With S16020, there was a high incidence of severe non-haematological toxicities, including asthenia, oedema of the face, oedema and pain at the tumour sites and erythematous rash; consequently, both studies were stopped. CONCLUSIONS Both studies were stopped due to the poor anticipated benefit/risk ratio for S16020, although time to progression and overall survival time were similar in both treatment arms.

Abstract
PURPOSE We assessed the efficacy and toxicity of a chemotherapy regimen combining doxorubicin and ifosfamide in patients with metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of the 25 patients included in a prospective multicenter phase II trial 23 were evaluable for efficacy and toxicity studies after pathological review. RESULTS A median of 3 cycles per patient (range 1 to 8) was administered. No objective response was observed. Median time to progression was 2.2 months and median overall survival was 3.9 months. A single patient died of toxicity. CONCLUSIONS The results do not support the standard use of doxorubicin/ifosfamide chemotherapy in patients with metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The prognosis of subfascial lipomatous soft tissue tumors depends greatly on their histological type ranging from benign lipomas that cause little local or general problems to the severe prognosis of liposarcomas that exhibit both local and distant extension. However, the clinical presentation of the two types of tumors may be similar and thus quite misleading, sometimes leading to inappropriate management and severe consequences. The main objective of this study was to determine whether the preoperative work-up in patients treated for musculoskeletal tumors within our recruitment zone is adequate, allowing appropriate therapeutic decisions. In addition, we wanted to know what explorations are most pertinent for the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant subfascial lipomatous soft tissue tumors. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-seven patients with subfascial tumors were included in this study. There were 16 with benign lipomas and 21 with liposarcomas. All the patients with benign lipomas but only 9 (43%) of those with liposarcoma had received initial care within our recruitment zone before final diagnosis. Two cases had been referred after biopsy and 1 after resection by morcellation; the 9 others were secondary referrals after tumor recurrence. Only 5 of these 12 referred patients had had an MRI exploration prior to surgery, 2 with an erroneous interpretation. An MRI series was obtained for all the patients with benign lipoma and for the 9 with liposarcomas who attended our units directly. A biopsy was also obtained in case of suspected liposarcoma. Two radiologists blinded to the final diagnosis reviewed the available MRI to assess their diagnostic value for subfascial lipomatous soft tissue tumors. RESULTS No case of recurrence, after marginal resection (10 cases) was noted for lipomas. Six are under observation with regular MRI (with no change in size or signal). Four patients with liposarcoma died from their disease (19%) and 2 who had undergone "curative" resection had a recurrence (12%). Incorrect or imprecise (incomplete, incorrectly interpreted or no MRI) preoperative diagnosis led to additional morbidity with 3.4 surgical procedures (mean per patient) compared with 1 in patients who had had undergone a complete work-up and whose diagnosis was established after multidisciplinary discussions. Among the diagnostic elements available before pathology, only MRI findings had diagnostic value for subfascial lipomatous soft tissue tumors: for benign lipoma positive predictive value=92% and negative predictive value=93%. DISCUSSION The clinical course of the benign lipomas and the sarcomas in this series confirm the radically different prognosis of these two tumors, both in terms of local extension and survival. Inadequate management in the initial diagnostic stages-i.e. lack of MRI with contrast injection, biopsy and multidisciplinary interpretation prior to treatment-raises the risk of higher morbidity, particularly a significantly greater number of reoperations, and progression to a higher grade of malignancy for two tumors. Our retrospective analysis enabled us to develop a decision making tree for patients with subfascial lipomatous tumors. Prospective validation will be necessary.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of vinorelbine in a phase II study in patients with progressive metastatic androgen-independent prostate cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Forty-seven men with progressive metastatic prostate cancer refractory to first-line or second-line hormonal therapy were treated with vinorelbine, a semisynthetic vinca-alkaloid. Vinorelbine was given, on an outpatient schedule, at 25 mg/m2 weekly for at least eight weeks or until progression or excessive toxicity. RESULTS Forty-seven patients were included in the study, 33 being evaluable for tumour response, 36 for response to PSA, 21 for clinical benefit and 45 for toxicity. Median actual weekly dose was 19 mg/m2 (range 12.0-26.2 mg/m2). Six of thirty-six patients (17%) demonstrated a biologic response with a 50% or more decline in serum PSA on two consecutive measurements taken at least two weeks apart. The median duration of biologic response was 2.7 months. Two of three patients with measurable disease obtained an objective response but remained unconfirmed. No change disease was reported in 23 patients (49%). On entry into the study, 30 patients had symptomatic bone pain and required narcotic or non-narcotic analgesics. Clinical benefit from vinorelbine was achieved in 15 patients out of 21 (32% of the intent to treat analysis population and 71% of the assessable patients). Due to the low number of questionnaires (QLQ-C30) filled in, it was insufficient to allow any statistical analysis. The median survival was 10.2 months. Toxicity was mainly haematologic with 51% of patients experiencing grade 3 or 4 granulocytopenia. Three patients developed deep vein thrombosis. Non-haematologic toxicity, mainly nausea and neurotoxicity, was mild. CONCLUSION The administration of weekly vinorelbine appears to be a safe treatment for those patients with androgen-independent prostate cancer and poor prognosis features who require chemotherapy. These results provide data for future investigation of vinorelbine in combination regimens.

Abstract
Glucose not only serves as a nutrient but also exerts many hormone-like regulatory effects in a wide variety of eukaryotic cell types. Recently, interest in identifying general mechanisms and principles used to sense the presence of glucose has significantly increased and promising advances have been made: in yeast, the first proteins with an apparently specific function in glucose detection have been discovered; in plant cells, there is increasing evidence for a diverse array of glucose-induced signalling mechanisms; and in mammals, glucose-sensing phenomena have turned out to be much more widespread than just in the well-known example of pancreatic beta cells.

Abstract
Glucose-induced cAMP signalling in Saccharomyces cerevisiae requires extracellular glucose detection via the Gpr1-Gpa2 G-protein coupled receptor system and intracellular glucose-sensing that depends on glucose uptake and phosphorylation. The glucose uptake requirement can be fulfilled by any glucose carrier including the Gal2 permease or by intracellular hydrolysis of maltose. Hence, the glucose carriers do not seem to play a regulatory role in cAMP signalling. Also the glucose carrier homologues, Snf3 and Rgt2, are not required for glucose-induced cAMP synthesis. Although no further metabolism beyond glucose phosphorylation is required, neither Glu6P nor ATP appears to act as metabolic trigger for cAMP signalling. This indicates that a regulatory function may be associated with the hexose kinases. Consistently, intracellular acidification, another known trigger of cAMP synthesis, can bypass the glucose uptake requirement but not the absence of a functional hexose kinase. This may indicate that intracellular acidification can boost a downstream effect that amplifies the residual signal transmitted via the hexose kinases when glucose uptake is too low.

Abstract
Psychiatric manifestations are infrequent or rarely described in Hashimoto's encephalopathy. It usually begins like a subacute diffuse encephalopathy with confusion, tremor and other neurologic symptoms. A relapsing course is characteristic. Neither biologic nor clinical symptoms are specific but high antithyroid antibodies levels are characteristic. The diagnosis can be seriously delayed by the fact that the different symptoms implicate approaches by psychiatrists, neurologists or endocrinologists. There are two clinical types. The one presented here evaluates progressively to dementia with psychotic episodes, confusion and seizures. An early steroid treatment makes the symptoms regress without aftereffects. We have analysed the clinical and biological findings of a woman who has been admitted to different neurologic and psychiatric departments before her diagnosis was made. First clinical presentation and evolution were that of a depression. Each time the antidepressive treatment was stopped, depression relapsed in spite of an appropriate steroid treatment. Literature shows that a close link exists between depression and antithyroid antibodies whatever thyroid status. This link does still exist after adjustment of psycho-social determinants of depression. The decrease of those antibodies only reflects the decrease of inflammation. So, for the psychiatrist it is important to diagnose Hashimoto's encephalopathy without delay, especially when psychiatric manifestations are in the foreground. Furthermore, a psychiatric report should systematically be added to the clinical and biological findings in order to make a better approach of the existing links between depression and other manifestations of the disease.

Abstract
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, glucose activation of cAMP synthesis requires both the presence of the G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) system, Gpr1-Gpa2, and uptake and phosphorylation of the sugar. In a hxt-null strain that lacks all physiologically important glucose carriers, glucose transport as well as glucose-induced cAMP signalling can be restored by constitutive expression of the galactose permease. Hence, the glucose transporters do not seem to have a regulatory function but are only required for glucose uptake. We established a system in which the GPCR-dependent glucose-sensing process is separated from the glucose phosphorylation process. It is based on the specific transport and hydrolysis of maltose providing intracellular glucose in the absence of glucose transport. Preaddition of a low concentration (0.7 mM) of maltose to derepressed hxt-null cells and subsequent addition of glucose restored the glucose-induced cAMP signalling, although there was no glucose uptake. Addition of a low concentration of maltose itself does not increase the cAMP level but enhances Glu6P and apparently fulfils the intracellular glucose phosphorylation requirement for activation of the cAMP pathway by extracellular glucose. This system enabled us to analyse the affinity and specificity of the GPCR system for fermentable sugars. Gpr1 displayed a very low affinity for glucose (apparent Ka = 75 mM) and responded specifically to extracellular alpha and beta D-glucose and sucrose, but not to fructose, mannose or any glucose analogues tested. The presence of the constitutively active Gpa2val132 allele in a wild-type strain bypassed the requirement for Gpr1 and increased the low cAMP signal induced by fructose and by low glucose up to the same intensity as the high glucose signal. Therefore, the low cAMP increases observed with fructose and low glucose in wild-type cells result only from the low sensitivity of the Gpr1-Gpa2 system and not from the intracellular sugar kinase-dependent process. In conclusion, we have shown that the two essential requirements for glucose-induced activation of cAMP synthesis can be fulfilled separately: an extracellular glucose detection process dependent on Gpr1 and an intracellular sugar-sensing process requiring the hexose kinases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vinorelbine is an active drug in the treatment of lung and breast cancers and has a favorable toxicity profile. Many clinical trials have demonstrated its antitumor activity in other tumor types including squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). We investigated the efficacy and tolerability of vinorelbine in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic SCCHN, previously untreated by chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-one patients with locoregional recurrent and/or metastatic SCCHN were treated with vinorelbine at a dose of 30 mg/m2/week i.v. by short-duration infusion on an out-patient basis. Doses were adjusted according to tolerance. RESULTS Two complete and seven partial responses were observed among 56 evaluable patients, yielding a response rate of 16% (95% confidence interval (CI): 8%-28%). The overall response rate of all eligible patients (63) was 14%. The responses were seen in recurrent tumors, lymph nodes and in lung metastases, and their median duration was 19 weeks (12-63). The main toxicity, severe and reversible neutropenia (grade 3-4) occurred in 53% of the 69 evaluable (for toxicity) patients. Twelve patients developed severe bronchopulmonary infections, which caused two early deaths. Constipation was observed in 31 patients (45%). Other gastrointestinal toxicities, asthenia, acute pain syndrome and peripheral sensory neuropathy, were mild to moderate. The median number of treatments was seven cycles and the median relative dose intensity of vinorelbine was 85% (25.5 mg/m2/week). CONCLUSIONS Vinorelbine is an active drug, with acceptable toxicity, in recurrent and/or metastatic SCCHN, at the dose and schedule administered in the present study. Further evaluation in association with other agents and/or radiotherapy is warranted.
