Abstract
The demand for international collaboration in cancer clinical trials has grown stronger to maximize efficiency, avoid duplication of effort and to achieve effective implementation of research results into medical practice. Infrastructures that could facilitate intercontinental collaboration not only between Europe and United States but also between Europe and Asia are urgently needed. The European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer, one of the major cancer clinical research infrastructure in Europe, initiated collaboration with the Japan Clinical Oncology Group, the largest cancer research cooperative group in Japan. Their first pilot trial on unresectable colorectal liver metastasis will commence on fourth quarter of 2016. With similar goals and strategies as well as with similar structures, the two research organizations have a great potential for efficient collaboration that could deliver faster and global therapeutic improvement to cancer patients. However, international collaboration requires careful and structured approach to harmonize activities to ensure success. This article focuses on specific intercontinental differences and the necessary requirements to ensure a successful partnership between European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer and Japan Clinical Oncology Group. This could serve as a model to build more global international academic trials between the East and the West.

Abstract
Actuality was dense in 2017 for oncology and hematology. The editorial board of the Bulletin du Cancer proposes a selection of key data distinguishing four trends: precision medicine, immunotherapy, focus on early stages and global management of metastatic disease. A summary of results which have been published or presented in congresses is proposed and the impact on daily practices is discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The definition of parenchymal sparing surgery (PSS) for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) diverges requiring a clarification of the concept. METHOD A consecutive series of patients were treated by PSS for their CRLMs, either by resection or intra-operative ablation (IOA), whenever possible a one-stage surgery and minimal usage of portal vein embolization. Post-operative complications were the primary endpoint with a special focus on post-operative liver failure. RESULTS Three hundred and eighty-seven patients underwent a PSS out of which 328 patients received a median of 9 pre-operative cycles of chemotherapy. One hundred and twenty-eight patients had a major resection, combined with IOA in 137 patients and IOA alone in 50 cases. The 5yr-overall survival was 50.3%. There was no difference in post-operative complications between minor and major resections, validating our PSS definition based on the Tumor burden/Healthy liver ratio and not just the retrieved volume. CONCLUSIONS PSS is defined as a high ratio of tumoral burden per specimen retrieved while favoring one-stage surgery approach. Our series, using combined resections and IOAs, matches this definition well. Furthermore, complications were correlated neither to chemotherapy nor to liver-induced toxicities, contrary to extended hepatectomies.

Abstract
TPS3633 Background: For patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) with good clinical response to chemotherapy, the presence of disappearing liver metastases (DLMs) diagnosed by CT is a major independent prognostic factor. DW-MRI as well as contrast enhanced (CE)-MRI is recommended to detect and characterize CRLM. However, the correlation between radiological and pathological complete response has not been fully investigated using these latest imaging and pathology techniques. Our main aim is to demonstrate the added value of DW-MRI, CE-MRI to that of CT alone to provide precise assessment of the viability of DLMs. In addition, we aim to optimize the therapeutic management of CRLM patients. No prospective study has been conducted to determine the predictive value of DW-MRI combined with CE-MRI in confirming sites of DLMs and assessing their true status. Methods: This is the first collaborative study between EORTC, ESSO and JCOG with an integrated quality assurance program for imaging, surgery and pathology. Patients with unresectable CRLM will receive standard systemic chemotherapy and liver resection if resectable. Both CT and MRI (DW-MRI, CE-MRI and T1/T2) will be used to identify confirmed DLMs (cDLMs). cDLMs will be either resected or, if resection is not possible, followed-up without resection until 2 years after surgery to evaluate the true status of the cDLMs. The primary endpoint is negative predictive value (NPV) of DW-MRI, CE-MRI, T1/T2 and CT in confirming the status of cDLMs using as reference either the histopathological complete response or the absence of a local recurrence at the site of cDLMs during the follow up period of 2 years. The study aims at excluding a NPV≤0.85 and is powered under the alternative that the NPV≥0.95. The planned sample size is 92 evaluable (resected or left behind) cDLMs, with a 1-sided alpha of 5% and a power of 90% adjusting for within-patient correlation between cDLMs of 0.2 and an average number of 2 cDLMs per patient. Approximately 400 patients will be registered from European, Japanese and US sites over 3 years. As of February 2017, 2 patients have been enrolled. Clinical trial information: NCT02781935.

Abstract
e15013 Background: Colorectal cancer metastases (CRLM) are major public health issue. Recently, surgeons have advocated the use of parenchymal sparing surgery (PSS) however, a common definition of the concept is lacking.To clarify and try to validate the concept of PSS to treat CRLM through the available retrospectives studies, including ours. Methods: Retrospective analysis of a cohort of patients treated by combined resections and intra-operative ablation (IOA) based on PSS, prospectively recorded in a database from 2003 to 2015 in a regional referral cancer center. All the patients benefited from the same strategy, constituting a homogenous series.PSS consists of using resection or IOA in order to spare the healthy parenchyma. One-stage is favored over two-stage surgery and use of portal vein embolization was restricted to the minimum.Post-operative complications were the primary endpoint with a special focus on post-operative liver failure. Liver toxicities and overall survival were also scrutinized. Results: Three hundred and eighty-seven patients underwent a PSS out of which 348 patients received a median of 9 pre-operative cycles of oxaliplatin or irinotecan with targeted therapies for half of them. Resection was major in 128 patients, combined with IOA in 137 patients and IOA alone in 50 cases. Thirty-eight patients had a PVO by strict necessity. The 5yr-overall survival was 50.3%. Seventy-eight patients had a complication > grade 3 out of which 10 patients died. Nine patients had a liver failure (LF) grade B and C and four died. There was no difference in post-operative complications comparing minor and major resections, validating our PSS definition. Chemotherapy and liver toxicity were not related to more post-operative complications. Only one patient died from a primitive LF. Conclusions: With PSS, healthy liver is no more a target. Routine use of chemotherapy does not impair the results and severe LFs are rare. PSS is the optimal strategy to treat CRLM. Definition of PSS cannot be based just on the retrived volume but on the ratio Tumor burden/Healthy liver. A major hepatectomy can be a PSS and a minor may not be one. That is why PSS defintion must be clarify especially for further prospective validations.

Abstract
Background and Purpose—
In acute ischemic stroke patients, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)–Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score (ASPECTS) is correlated with infarct volume and is an independent factor of functional outcome. Patients with pretreatment DWI-ASPECTS ≤6 were excluded or under-represented in the recent randomized mechanical thrombectomy trials. Our aim was to assess the impact of reperfusion in pretreatment DWI-ASPECTS ≤6 patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy.
Methods—
We analyzed data collected between January 2012 and August 2015 in a bicentric prospective clinical registry of consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy. Every patient with a documented internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery occlusion with pretreatment DWI-ASPECTS ≤6 was eligible for this study. The primary end point was a favorable outcome defined by a modified Rankin Scale score ≤2 at 90 days.
Results—
Two hundred and eighteen patients with a DWI-ASPECTS ≤6 were included. Among them, 145 (66%) patients had successful reperfusion at the end of mechanical thrombectomy. Reperfused patients had an increased rate of favorable outcome (38.7% versus 17.4%;
P
=0.002) and a decreased rate of mortality at 3 months (22.5% versus 39.1%;
P
=0.013) compared with nonreperfused patients. The symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage rate was not different between the 2 groups (13.0% versus 14.1%;
P
=0.83). However, in patients with DWI-ASPECTS <5, favorable outcome was low (13.0% versus 9.5%;
P
=0.68) with a high mortality rate (45.7% versus 57.1%;
P
=0.38) with or without successful reperfusion.
Conclusions—
Successful reperfusion is associated with reduced mortality and disability in patients with a pretreatment DWI-ASPECTS ≤6. Further data from randomized studies are needed, particularly in patients with DWI-ASPECTS <5.

Abstract
Background Occult atrial fibrillation (AF) may, in part, explain cryptogenic stroke. A 22% prevalence of subdiaphragmatic visceral infarction (SDVI) among patients with ischemic stroke (IS) due to AF has been reported, using abdominal MRI. We sought to assess the reproducibility of this method and to confirm that SDVI is more prevalent in cases of AF-caused IS than in IS of other etiologies. Methods In consecutive patients admitted to our hospital, we compared SDVI prevalence in three groups: patients with IS due to AF (IS+/AF+ group), patients with stroke of another determined cause (IS+/AF- group) and patients with AF without stroke (IS-/AF+ group). Results A total of 111 patients were included. The median time between inclusion and abdominal MRI was six days. SDVI was more frequent in the IS+/AF+ group ( n = 10; 21.3%), than in IS+/AF- ( n = 1; 3.3%) and IS-/AF+ ( n = 0) groups, p = 0.002. The most frequent localization was the kidney. Conclusions The prevalence of SDVI was higher among patients with AF-caused IS. In cases of cryptogenic stroke, a positive abdominal MRI may suggest occult AF as the cause and identify a high risk of AF in this subgroup of patients.

Abstract
Purpose: Gastric carcinomas are heterogeneous, and the current therapy remains essentially based on surgery with conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy. This study aimed to characterize biomarkers allowing the detection of cancer stem cells (CSC) in human gastric carcinoma of different histologic types.Experimental Design: The primary tumors from 37 patients with intestinal- or diffuse-type noncardia gastric carcinoma were studied, and patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX) models in immunodeficient mice were developed. The expressions of 10 putative cell surface markers of CSCs, as well as aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity, were studied, and the tumorigenic properties of cells were evaluated by in vitro tumorsphere assays and in vivo xenografts by limiting dilution assays.Results: We found that a subpopulation of gastric carcinoma cells expressing EPCAM, CD133, CD166, CD44, and a high ALDH activity presented the properties to generate new heterogeneous tumorspheres in vitro and tumors in vivo CD44 and CD166 were coexpressed, representing 6.1% to 37.5% of the cells; ALDH activity was detected in 1.6% to 15.4% of the cells; and the ALDH+ cells represented a core within the CD44+/CD166+ subpopulation that contained the highest frequency of tumorigenic CSCs in vivo The ALDH+ cells possessed drug efflux properties and were more resistant to standard chemotherapy than the ALDH- cells, a process that was partially reversed by verapamil treatment.Conclusions: CD44 and ALDH are the most specific biomarkers to detect and isolate tumorigenic and chemoresistant gastric CSCs in noncardia gastric carcinomas independently of the histologic classification of the tumor.

Abstract
Twenty-four patients presenting an acute stroke with watershed cerebral infarct on CT scan or MRI were included in this retrospective study. Age was 63 +/- 14 years (mean +/- SD), and sex ratio was 2 men for 1 woman. Main clinical features were: in anterior location, lower limb weakness and frontal syndrome with transcortical motor aphasia in left lesions or spatial dyscalculia in right ones; in posterior location, brachiofacial weakness with constant quadranopsia and hypoesthesia, and Gerstmann syndrome in left lesion. There was no distinctive feature for subcortical and multiple infarcts. In bilateral infarcts, there were one pseudobulbar syndrome, and 2 pseudo brainstem syndromes with neuropsychological signs. Aetiologies were severe carotid artery disease in 14 cases, severe cardiopathy in 6, isolated cerebral angiitis in 1, essential thrombocythemia in 1, protein C deficiency with sickle cell disease in 1, and cholesterol emboli in 1 anatomical case. CBF performed in carotid artery occlusions or tight stenoses showed evidence of haemodynamic changes. Microembolic process can be proposed in the case with cholesterol emboli. Preventive treatment is discussed.

Abstract
Abstract
The proprotein convertases (PCSKs) are involved in the proteolytic maturation/activation of a wide range of protein precursors involved in neoplasia such as adhesion molecules, growth factors, growth factor receptors, and metalloproteinases. Expression analysis of all the PCSKs family members, namely PC1, PC2, furin, PC4, PC5, PACE4, and PC7 in various human and murine melanoma cells revealed increased PCSK6/PAECE4 expression while compared to melanocytes. The use of in vitro digestion assays and cell transfection experiments revealed that targeting the PCSK6/PAECE4 in melanoma cells using small interfering RNA (siRNA) reduced PCSKs activity and repressed the processing the PCSKs substrates proIGF-1R, pro-VEGF-C and proPDGF-A. Theses unprocessed substrates failed to mediate their signaling pathways that associated reduced cell proliferation. Furthermore, PCSK6/PAECE4 gene silencing reduced melanoma cells migration and invasion that paralleled decreased gelatinase MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity and altered expression and secretion of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) and TIMP-2, urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). Taken together, these findings highlight the importance of PCSK6/PAECE4 activity in melanoma cells and suggest PCSK6/PAECE4 inhibition as a potentially promising strategy for the prevention of melanoma invasiveness.

Second St. Gallen European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Gastrointestinal Cancer Conference: consensus recommendations on controversial issues in the primary treatment of rectal cancer.

Abstract
Primary treatment of rectal cancer was the focus of the second St. Gallen European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Gastrointestinal Cancer Conference. In the context of the conference, a multidisciplinary international expert panel discussed and voted on controversial issues which could not be easily answered using published evidence. Main topics included optimal pretherapeutic imaging, indication and type of neoadjuvant treatment, and the treatment strategies in advanced tumours. Here we report the key recommendations and summarise the related evidence. The treatment strategy for localised rectal cancer varies from local excision in early tumours to neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy (RCT) in combination with extended surgery in locally advanced disease. Optimal pretherapeutic staging is a key to any treatment decision. The panel recommended magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or MRI + endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) as mandatory staging modalities, except for early T1 cancers with an option for local excision, where EUS in addition to MRI was considered to be most important because of its superior near-field resolution. Primary surgery with total mesorectal excision was recommended by most panellists for some early tumours with limited risk of recurrence (i.e. cT1-2 or cT3a N0 with clear mesorectal fascia on MRI and clearly above the levator muscles), whereas all other stages were considered for multimodal treatment. The consensus panel recommended long-course RCT over short-course radiotherapy for most clinical situations where neoadjuvant treatment is indicated, with the exception of T3a/b N0 tumours where short-course radiotherapy or even no neoadjuvant therapy were regarded to be an option. In patients with potentially resectable tumours and synchronous liver metastases, most panel members did not see an indication to start with classical fluoropyrimidine-based RCT but rather favoured preoperative short-course radiotherapy with systemic combination chemotherapy or alternatively a liver-first resection approach in resectable metastases, which both allow optimal systemic therapy for the metastatic disease. In general, proper patient selection and discussion in an experienced multidisciplinary team was considered as crucial component of care.

Abstract
Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant neoplasm that accounts for 1–2% of all pancreatic neoplasms. Here we report two cases of ACC and describe their clinical features, the therapies used to treat them, and their prognosis. The first patient was a 65-year-old woman who had an abdominal CT scan for a urinary infection. Fortuitously, a rounded and well-delimited corporeal pancreatic tumor was discovered. An endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine needle aspiration revealed an ACC. During the puncture, a hypoechoic cavity appeared inside the lesion, corresponding to a probable necrotic area. Treatment consisted of a distal splenopancreatectomy. The second patient was a 75-year-old man who complained of abdominal pain. An abdominal CT scan showed a cephalic pancreatic lesion and two hepatic metastases. An EUS-guided fine needle aspiration showed a pancreatic ACC. The patient received chemotherapy with gemcitabine plus oxaliplatin (GEMOX regimen), which enabled an objective response after 6 cycles.
