Abstract
AIMS The forthcoming STAMPEDE2 trial has three comparisons in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. We aim to determine clinical practices among STAMPEDE trial investigators for access to imaging and therapeutic choices and explore their interest in participation in STAMPEDE2. MATERIALS AND METHODS The survey was developed and distributed online to 120 UK STAMPEDE trial sites. Recipients were invited to complete the survey between 16 and 30 May 2022. The survey consisted of 30 questions in five sections on access to stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR), 177lutetium-prostate-specific membrane antigen-617 (177Lu-PSMA-617), choice of systemic therapies and use of positron emission tomography/computerised tomography and whole-body magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS From 58/120 (48%) sites, 64 respondents completed the survey: 55/64 (86%) respondents were interested to participate in SABR, 44/64 (69%) in 177Lu-PSMA-617 and 56/64 (87.5%) in niraparib with abiraterone comparisons; 45/64 (70%) respondents had access to bone, spine and lymph node metastases SABR delivery and 7/64 (11%) to 177Lu-PSMA-617. In addition to androgen deprivation therapy, 60/64 (94%) respondents used androgen receptor signalling inhibitors and 46/64 (72%) used docetaxel; 29/64 (45%) respondents would consider triplet therapy with androgen deprivation therapy, androgen receptor signalling inhibitors and docetaxel. Positron emission tomography/computerised tomography was available to 62/64 (97%) respondents and requested by 45/64 (70%) respondents for disease uncertainty on conventional imaging and 39/64 (61%) at disease relapse. Whole-body magnetic resonance imaging was available to 24/64 (38%) respondents and requested by 13/64 (20%) respondents in highly selected patients. In low-volume disease, 38/64 (59%) respondents requested scans at baseline and disease relapse. In high-volume disease, 29/64 (45%) respondents requested scans at baseline, best response (at prostate-specific antigen nadir) and disease relapse; 54/64 (84%) respondents requested computerised tomography and bone scan for best response assessment. CONCLUSION There is noteworthy disparity in clinical practice across current study sites, however most have expressed an interest in participation in the forthcoming STAMPEDE2 trial.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the relationship between local relapse following radical radiotherapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) and radiation dose. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with T2-4N0-3M0 MIBC were recruited to a phase II study assessing the feasibility of intensity-modulated radiotherapy to the bladder and pelvic lymph nodes. Patients were planned to receive 64 Gy/32 fractions to the bladder tumour, 60 Gy/32 fractions to the involved pelvic nodes and 52 Gy/32 fractions to the uninvolved bladder and pelvic nodes. Pre-treatment set-up was informed by cone-beam CT. For patients who experienced local relapse, cystoscopy and imaging (CT/MRI) was used to reconstruct the relapse gross tumour volume (GTVrelapse) on the original planning CT . GTVrelapse D98% and D95% was determined by co-registering the relapse image to the planning CT utilising deformable image registration (DIR) and rigid image registration (RIR). Failure was classified into five types based on spatial and dosimetric criteria as follows: A (central high-dose failure), B (peripheral high-dose failure), C (central elective dose failure), D (peripheral elective dose failure) and E (extraneous dose failure). RESULTS Between June 2009 and November 2012, 38 patients were recruited. Following treatment, 18/38 (47%) patients experienced local relapse within the bladder. The median time to local relapse was 9.0 months (95% confidence interval 6.3-11.7). Seventeen of 18 patients were evaluable based on the availability of cross-sectional relapse imaging. A significant difference between DIR and RIR methods was seen. With the DIR approach, the median GTVrelapse D98% and D95% was 97% and 98% of prescribed dose, respectively. Eleven of 17 (65%) patients experienced type A failure and 6/17 (35%) patients type B failure. No patients had type C, D or E failure. MIBC failure occurred in 10/17 (59%) relapsed patients; of those, 7/11 (64%) had type A failure and 3/6 (50%) had type B failure. Non-MIBC failure occurred in 7/17 (41%) patients; 4/11 (36%) with type A failure and 3/6 (50%) with type B failure. CONCLUSION Relapse following radiotherapy occurred within close proximity to the original bladder tumour volume and within the planned high-dose region, suggesting possible biological causes for failure. We advise caution when considering margin reduction for future reduced high-dose radiation volume or partial bladder radiotherapy protocols.

Abstract
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multi-organ inflammatory disorder mainly affecting women and is associated with high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. We tested the utility of a comprehensive cardiovascular magnetic resonance approach to assess myocardial involvement and to determine its relation to disease activity in SLE patients. We studied 20 SLE patients (19 females, 35 ± 10 years) and 13 healthy volunteers (nine females, 28 ± 11 years). Classification followed the criteria of the American College of Rheumatology and assessment of SLE activity was based on the European Consensus Lupus Activity Measurement index. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed on a 1.5T scanner and included the following sequences: steady-state free precession, T2-weighted, early and late T1-weighted after gadolinium-DTPA injection. Ejection fraction was not significantly different between groups (controls: 63 ± 6, inactive SLE: 67 ± 7, active SLE 64 ± 8; P = 0.003 for all groups). In contrast, relative T2 ratio (myocardium to skeletal muscle) was significantly higher in active SLE than in the other groups (controls: 1.7 ± 0.3, inactive: 1.8 ± 0.2, active: 2.1 ± 0.2; P = 0.003). Similarly, early enhancement ratio was significantly higher in active SLE (controls: 2.4 ± 1.4, inactive: 2.8 ± 1.1, active: 4.5 ± 2.0, P = 0.39). Both relative T2 and early enhancement ratios significantly correlated with disease activity. Intramural foci of late enhancement were observed in three of eight patients (all with active SLE). Of the five patients with no late enhancement, only one had active disease. An imaging approach combining T2-weighted, early and late enhancement imaging is a useful tool to assess possible myocardial involvement in SLE. CMR parameters of global myocardial involvement correlate well with disease activity, but not with usual clinical signs as summarized in a cardiac score.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a simple radiological technique for measuring normal oesophageal transit time. DESIGN 72 patients with no oesophageal or gastrointestinal complaints underwent manometry and radiological oesophageal transit time (ROTT). ROTT was perfomed using 2 ml of fluid barium on a digital X-ray machine. Digital image acquisition started with the beginning of swallowing using 1 frame/s for 15 s. These images were printed on a single film. The effect of ageing on ROTT was also assessed. RESULTS ROTT had a mean value of 10.08 s. ROTT was divided into three segments: proximal-to-left-main-bronchus; retrocardiac; and inferior oesophageal sphincter segments. The mean transit time across these segments was 2.84, 3.07, and 4.15 s, respectively. ROTT in patients over 40 years was longer than in patients under 40 years. CONCLUSION ROTT is a physiological, rapid, non-invasive, and reproducible technique for measuring the normal oesophageal transsit time, without discomfort to patients.
