Abstract
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1), which catabolizes tryptophan, is a potential target to unlock the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Correlations between IDO1 and immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) efficacy remain unclear. Herein, we investigated IDO1 transcript expression across cancers and clinical outcome correlations. High IDO1 transcripts were more frequent in uterine (54.2%) and ovarian cancer (37.2%) but varied between and within malignancies. High IDO1 RNA expression was associated with high expression of PD-L1 (immune checkpoint ligand), CXCL10 (an effector T cell recruitment chemokine), and STAT1 (a component of the JAK-STAT pathway) (all multivariable p < 0.05). PIK3CA and CTCF alterations were more frequent in the high IDO1 group. High IDO1 expression was an independent predictor of progression-free survival (adjusted HR = 0.44, 95% CI 0.20-0.99, p = 0.049) and overall survival (adjusted HR = 0.31, 95% CI 0.11-0.87, p = 0.026) after front-line ICIs. IDO1 expression warrants further exploration as a predictive biomarker for immunotherapy. Moreover, co-expressed immunoregulatory molecules merit exploration for co-targeting.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have changed the treatment landscape for various malignancies; however, their benefit is limited to a subset of patients. The immune machinery includes both mediators of suppression/immune evasion, such as PD-1, PD-L1, CTLA-4, and LAG-3, all of which can be inhibited by specific antibodies, and immune-stimulatory molecules, such as T-cell co-stimulatory receptors that belong to the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily (TNFRSF), including OX40 receptor (CD134; TNFRSF4), 4-1BB (CD137; TNFRSF9), and glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related (GITR) protein (CD357; TNFRSF18). In particular, OX40 and its binding ligand OX40L (CD134L; TNFSF4; CD252) are critical for immunoregulation. When OX40 on activated T cells binds OX40L on antigen-presenting cells, T-cell activation and immune stimulation are initiated via enhanced T-cell survival, proliferation and cytotoxicity, memory T-cell formation, and abrogation of regulatory T cell (Treg) immunosuppressive functions. OX40 agonists are in clinical trials both as monotherapy and in combination with other immunotherapy agents, in particular specific checkpoint inhibitors, for cancer treatment. To date, however, only a minority of patients respond. Transcriptomic profiling reveals that OX40 and OX40L expression vary between and within tumor types, and that only ~ 17% of cancer patients have high OX40 and low OX40L, one of the expression patterns that might be theoretically amenable to OX40 agonist enhancement. Taken together, the data suggest that the OX40/OX40L machinery is a critical part of the immune stimulatory system and that understanding endogenous expression patterns of these molecules and co-existing checkpoints merits further investigation in the context of a precision immunotherapy strategy for cancer therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimizing immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy may require identification of co-targetable checkpoint pathways via immune profiling. Herein, we analyzed the transcriptomic expression and clinical correlates of V-domain immunoglobulin suppressor of T-cell activation (VISTA), a promising targetable checkpoint. PATIENTS AND METHODS RNA sequencing was carried out on 514 tissues reflecting diverse advanced/metastatic cancers. Expression of eight immune checkpoint markers [lymphocyte-activation gene 3 (LAG-3), tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily 14 (TNFRSF14), programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), programmed death-ligand 2 (PD-L2), B- and T-lymphocyte attenuator (BTLA), T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3 (TIM-3), cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4)], in addition to VISTA, was analyzed, along with clinical outcomes. RESULTS High VISTA RNA expression was observed in 32% of tumors (66/514) and was the most common highly expressed checkpoint among the nine assessed. High VISTA expression was independently correlated with high BTLA, TIM-3, and TNFRSF14, and with a diagnosis of pancreatic, small intestine, and stomach cancer. VISTA transcript levels did not correlate with overall survival (OS) from metastatic/advanced disease in the pan-cancer cohort or with immunotherapy outcome (progression-free survival and OS from the start of ICI) in 217 ICI-treated patients. However, in ICI-treated pancreatic cancer patients (n = 16), median OS was significantly shorter (from immunotherapy initiation) for the high- versus not-high-VISTA groups (0.28 versus 1.21 years) (P = 0.047); in contrast, VISTA levels were not correlated with OS in 36 pancreatic cancer patients who did not receive ICI. CONCLUSION High VISTA expression correlates with high BTLA, TIM-3, and TNFRSF14 checkpoint-related molecules and with poorer post-immunotherapy survival in pancreatic cancer, consistent with prior literature indicating that VISTA is prominently expressed on CD68+ macrophages in pancreatic cancers and requiring validation in larger prospective studies. Immunomic analysis may be important for individualized precision immunotherapy.

Abstract
Background CTLA-4 impedes the immune system's antitumor response. There are two Food and Drug Administration-approved anti-CTLA-4 agents - ipilimumab and tremelimumab - both used together with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 agents. Objective To assess the prognostic implications and immunologic correlates of high CTLA-4 in tumors of patients on immunotherapy and those on non-immunotherapy treatments. Design/methods We evaluated RNA expression levels in a clinical-grade laboratory and clinical correlates of CTLA-4 and other immune checkpoints in 514 tumors, including 489 patients with advanced/metastatic cancers and full outcome annotation. A reference population (735 tumors; 35 histologies) was used to normalize and rank transcript abundance (0-100 percentile) to internal housekeeping gene profiles. Results The most common tumor types were colorectal (140/514, 27%), pancreatic (55/514, 11%), breast (49/514, 10%), and ovarian cancers (43/514, 8%). Overall, 87 of 514 tumors (16.9%) had high CTLA-4 transcript expression (⩾75th percentile rank). Cancers with the largest proportion of high CTLA-4 transcripts were cervical cancer (80% of patients), small intestine cancer (33.3%), and melanoma (33.3%). High CTLA-4 RNA independently/significantly correlated with high PD-1, PD- L2, and LAG3 RNA levels (and with high PD-L1 in univariate analysis). High CTLA-4 RNA expression was not correlated with survival from the time of metastatic disease [N = 272 patients who never received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs)]. However, in 217 patients treated with ICIs (mostly anti-PD-1/anti-PD- L1), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were significantly longer among patients with high versus non-high CTLA-4 expression [hazard ratio, 95% confidence interval: 0.6 (0.4-0.9) p = 0.008; and 0.5 (0.3-0.8) p = 0.002, respectively]; results were unchanged when 18 patients who received anti-CTLA-4 were omitted. Patients whose tumors had high CTLA-4 and high PD-L1 did best; those with high PD-L1 but non-high CTLA-4 and/or other expression patterns had poorer outcomes for PFS (p = 0.004) and OS (p = 0.009) after immunotherapy. Conclusion High CTLA-4, especially when combined with high PD-L1 transcript expression, was a significant positive predictive biomarker for better outcomes (PFS and OS) in patients on immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T-cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain-containing protein 3 (TIM-3), an immune checkpoint receptor, dampens immune function. TIM-3 antagonists have entered the clinic. METHODS We analyzed TIM-3 transcriptomic expression in 514 diverse cancers. Transcript abundance was normalized to internal housekeeping genes and ranked (0-100 percentile) to a reference population (735 tumors; 35 histologies [high≥75 percentile rank]). Ninety tumors (17.5%) demonstrated high TIM-3 expression. RESULTS TIM-3 expression varied between and within tumor types. However, high TIM-3 expression was more common in pancreatic cancer (20/55 tumors, 36.4%; odds ratio, 95% confidence interval (pancreatic vs. other tumors) = 3.176 (1.733-5.818; p < 0.001, multivariate]). High TIM-3 also significantly and independently correlated with high PD-L1 (p = 0.014) and high CTLA-4 (p < 0.001) transcriptomic expression (multivariate). CONCLUSIONS These observations indicate that TIM-3 RNA expression is heterogeneous, but more common in pancreatic cancer and in tumors exploiting PD-L1 and CTLA-4 checkpoints. Clinical trials with patient selection for matched immune-targeted combinations may be warranted.

Abstract
Our objective was to characterize cancer-immunity marker expression in gynecologic cancers and compare immune landscapes between gynecologic tumor subtypes and with nongynecologic solid tumors. RNA expression levels of 51 cancer-immunity markers were analyzed in patients with gynecologic cancers versus nongynecologic cancers, and normalized to a reference population of 735 control cancers, ranked from 0 to 100, and categorized as low (0-24), moderate (25-74), or high (75-100) percentile rank. Of the 72 patients studied, 43 (60%) had ovarian, 24 (33%) uterine, and 5 (7%) cervical cancer. No two immune profiles were identical according to expression rank (0-100) or rank level (low, moderate, or high). Patients with cervical cancer had significantly higher expression level ranks of immune activating, proinflammatory, tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte markers, and checkpoints than patients with uterine or ovarian cancer (P < 0.001 for all comparisons). However, there were no significant differences in immune marker expression between uterine and ovarian cancers. Tumors with PD-L1 tumor proportional score (TPS) ≥1% versus 0% had significantly higher expression levels of proinflammatory markers (58 vs. 49%, P = 0.0004). Compared to patients with nongynecologic cancers, more patients with gynecologic cancers express high levels of IDO-1 (44 vs. 13%, P < 0.001), LAG3 (35 vs. 21%, P = 0.008), and IL10 (31 vs. 15%, P = 0.002.) Patients with gynecologic cancers have complex and heterogeneous immune landscapes that are distinct from patient to patient and from other solid tumors. High levels of IDO1 and LAG3 suggest that clinical trials with IDO1 inhibitors or LAG3 inhibitors, respectively, may be warranted in gynecologic cancers.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint blockade is effective for only a subset of cancers. Targeting T-cell priming markers (TPMs) may enhance activity, but proper application of these agents in the clinic is challenging due to immune complexity and heterogeneity. We interrogated transcriptomics of 15 TPMs (CD137, CD27, CD28, CD80, CD86, CD40, CD40LG, GITR, ICOS, ICOSLG, OX40, OX40LG, GZMB, IFNG, and TBX21) in a pan-cancer cohort (N = 514 patients, 30 types of cancer). TPM expression was analyzed for correlation with histological type, microsatellite instability high (MSI-H), tumor mutational burden (TMB), and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. Among 514 patients, the most common histological types were colorectal (27%), pancreatic (11%), and breast cancer (10%). No statistically significant association between histological type and TPM expression was seen. In contrast, expression of GZMB (granzyme B, a serine protease stored in activated T and NK cells that induces cancer cell apoptosis) and IFNG (activates cytotoxic T cells) were significantly higher in tumors with MSI-H, TMB ≥ 10 mutations/mb and PD-L1 ≥ 1%. PD-L1 ≥ 1% was also associated with significantly higher CD137, GITR, and ICOS expression. Patients' tumors were classified into "Hot", "Mixed", or "Cold" clusters based on TPM expression using hierarchical clustering. The cold cluster showed a significantly lower proportion of tumors with PD-L1 ≥ 1%. Overall, 502 patients (98%) had individually distinct patterns of TPM expression. Diverse expression patterns of TPMs independent of histological type but correlating with other immunotherapy biomarkers (PD-L1 ≥ 1%, MSI-H and TMB ≥ 10 mutations/mb) were observed. Individualized selection of patients based on TPM immunomic profiles may potentially help with immunotherapy optimization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) or CD223 is a transmembrane protein that serves as an immune checkpoint which attenuates T-cell activation. Many clinical trials of LAG-3 inhibitors have had modest effects, but recent data indicate that the LAG-3 antibody relatlimab, together with nivolumab (anti-PD-1), provided greater benefit than nivolumab alone in patients with melanoma. METHODS In this study, the RNA expression levels of 397 genes were assessed in 514 diverse cancers at a clinical-grade laboratory (OmniSeq: https://www.omniseq.com/). Transcript abundance was normalized to internal housekeeping gene profiles and ranked (0-100 percentile) using a reference population (735 tumors; 35 histologies). RESULTS A total of 116 of 514 tumors (22.6%) had high LAG-3 transcript expression (≥75 percentile rank). Cancers with the greatest proportion of high LAG-3 transcripts were neuroendocrine (47% of patients) and uterine (42%); colorectal had among the lowest proportion of high LAG-3 expression (15% of patients) (all p < 0.05 multivariate); 50% of melanomas were high LAG-3 expressors. There was significant independent association between high LAG-3 expression and high expression of other checkpoints, including programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), PD-1, and CTLA-4, as well as high tumor mutational burden (TMB) ≥10 mutations/megabase, a marker for immunotherapy response (all p < 0.05 multivariate). However, within all tumor types, there was inter-patient variability in LAG-3 expression level. CONCLUSIONS Prospective studies are therefore needed to determine if high levels of the LAG-3 checkpoint are responsible for resistance to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 or anti-CTLA-4 antibodies. Furthermore, a precision/personalized immunotherapy approach may require interrogating individual tumor immunograms to match patients to the right combination of immunotherapeutic agents for their malignancy.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Targeted therapies and immunotherapies have changed the treatment strategy for advanced colorectal cancer. Characterizing associations of actionable gene mutations with microsatellite instability (MSI) and tumor mutational burden (TMB) could suggest mechanistically intriguing combinations of targeted and immunotherapies.
Methods: Publicly available genetic and overall survival (OS) data of patients with colorectal cancer were analyzed. (N=3,548, MSK-MET through cBioPortal for cancer genomics) We investigated the correlations among actionable gene mutations (BRAF V600E, KRAS G12C, HER2 amplification, NTRK fusion, and RET fusion), MSI and TMB (>20/Mb). The association of actionable mutations, MSI and TMB patterns with OS was analyzed.
Results: BRAF V600E, KRAS G12C, HER2 amplification, NTRK fusion, RET fusion, MSI and TMB >20 was observed in 6.9, 3.1, 2.8, 0.3, 0.2, 9.2 and 9.9%, respectively. BRAF V600E showed mutual exclusivity toward KRAS G12C and HER2 amplification. MSI and TMB > 20 were associated with the presence of BRAF V600E, NTRK fusion, and RET fusion and the absence of KRAS G12C and HER2 amplification. MSI and TMB > 20 were highly correlated. (Table) Among patients with MSI (N=316), BRAF V600E was associated with shorter OS. (Hazard ratio (HR) 2.22, 95% confidence interval (CI); 1.12 - 4.41) In the patients without MSI, TMB >20 showed significantly longer OS, compared with TMB ≤20. (HR 0.26, 95% CI; 0.085 - 0.82) Association of NTRK or RET fusion with survival could not be reliably assessed due to small sample size (n < 10 for both).
Conclusion: There is significant correlation among targetable genetic mutations, MSI and TMB in colorectal cancer, and biomarker profiles are associated with differences in OS. Future studies should evaluate whether combinations of targeted therapies and immunotherapy have better efficacy than monotherapy approaches in selected patients.

Abstract
Background: Our objective was to characterize cancer immunity marker expression in gynecologic cancers and compare immune landscapes between gynecologic tumor subtypes and with non-gynecologic solid tumors. Methods: RNA expression levels of 51 cancer-immunity markers were analyzed in patients with gynecologic cancers vs. non-gynecologic cancers, and normalized to a reference population of 735 control cancers, ranked from 0-100, and categorized as low (0-24), moderate (25-74), or high (75-100) percentile rank. Results: Of the 72 patients studied, 43 (60%) had ovarian, 24 (33%) uterine, and 5 (7%) cervical cancer. No two immune profiles were identical according to expression rank (0-100) or rank level (low, moderate, or high). Patients with cervical cancer had significantly higher expression level ranks of immune activating, pro-inflammatory, tumor infiltrating lymphocyte markers and checkpoints than patients with uterine or ovarian cancer (p<0.001 for all comparisons). However, there were no significant differences in immune marker expression between uterine and ovarian cancers. Tumors with PD-L1 TPS =>1% versus 0% had significantly higher expression levels of pro-inflammatory markers (58 vs. 49%, p=0.0004). Compared to patients with non-gynecologic cancers, more patients with gynecologic cancers express high levels of IDO-1 (44 vs. 13%, p<0.001), LAG3 (35 vs. 21%, p=0.008) and IL10 (31 vs. 15%, p=0.002.) Conclusions: Patients with gynecologic cancers have complex and heterogeneous immune landscapes that are distinct from patient to patient and from other solid tumors. High levels of IDO1 and LAG3 suggest that clinical trials with IDO1 inhibitors or LAG3 inhibitors, respectively, may be warranted in gynecologic cancers.

Abstract
4532 Background: Multiple regimens incorporating tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) or immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), either alone or in combination, confer a significant OS benefit in 1L metastatic clear cell RCC. However, guidance for optimal treatment selection in elderly patients remains limited. A network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed to compare the efficacy of 1L treatments for elderly patients with aRCC. Methods: Database search was performed through Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating first-line regimens for patients with aRCC older than 65 years old. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Indirect comparisons of available regimens were estimated using a random-effects NMA. Results: 14 RCTs with more than 2,100 patients and 5 RCTs with 1,529 patients were eligible for PFS and OS analyses, respectively. Compared with sunitinib (Sun), the pembrolizumab (Pem) + axitinib (Axi) (HR 0.68, 95% CI 0.48-0.97) and Pem + lenvatinib (Len) (HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.4-0.94) regimens were associated with significantly improved OS. In comparing the TKI-ICI combinations with dual ICI nivolumab (Niv) + ipilimumab (Ipi), no significant OS differences were observed (Pem + Len: HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.40-1.27; Pem + Axi: HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.47-1.34; Avelumab (Ave) + Axi: HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.58-1.85; Niv + cabozantinib [Cab]: HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.57-1.93, using Niv + Ipi as a reference). Pem + Len, Niv + Cab, Pem + Axi, and Cab alone each showed improved PFS over Sun (Table). Among these, Pem + Len showed a PFS advantage compared to Pem + Axi (HR 0.58, 95% CI 0.37-0.91), but no PFS difference compared with the other regimens (vs Niv + Cab: HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.39-1.03; vs Cab alone: HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.40-1.77). Conclusions: Pem + Len and Pem + Axi provided the largest OS benefit in elderly patients for 1L aRCC. Pem + Len showed improved PFS compared with Pem + Axi, but no difference compared with Niv + Cab or Cab alone. Further validation using real-world data is needed to confirm the efficacy and safety of first-line regimens for the geriatric population with aRCC.[Table: see text]

Abstract
2555 Background: Although immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has revolutionized cancer treatment, not all patients with cancer benefit from ICB. One possible explanation for poor responders/resistance is the variable expression level of the target molecules (e.g., PD-1 and PD-L1) in the tumor microenvironment. There are recent or ongoing trials targeting variable pathways for immune evasion (e.g., LAG3 or IDO1). It is therefore of interest to know the expression levels related to variable immune checkpoints so that clinical trials can focus on the patients who can benefit from the cognate treatment. Methods: Overall, 514 patients with various solid tumors seen at the University of San Diego, Moores Center for Personalized Cancer Therapy were analyzed. The expression levels of checkpoint markers (ADORA2A, BTLA, CD276, CTLA4, IDO1, IDO2, LAG3, NOS2, PD-1, PD-L1, PD-L2, PVR, TIGIT, TIM3, VISTA, and VTCN) in the tumor samples were measured through RNA sequencing and normalized to internal housekeeping gene profiles, and ranked from 0 to 100 percentile based on a reference population. The expressions of each checkpoint marker were correlated with cancer types, microsatellite instability (MSI), tumor mutational burden (TMB), and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status on immunohistochemistry. Results: In this cohort, 60% were female, median age of 60, and included 30 different tumor types, with colorectal cancer being the most common (27%). The rank values of all checkpoint markers were distributed broadly from 0 to 99 or 100. CD276 and NOS2 had the highest (68th percentile) and lowest (13.5 percentile) median rank values, respectively. When rank values were categorized to “Low” (0-24), “Intermediate” (25-74), and “High” (75-100), 41.6% of patients showed high expression of CD276 while only 13% showed high expression of PD-L1. Each patient had a distinctive protfolio of the categorical expression levels of 16 checkpoint markers. Several checkpoint markers, especially NOS2, showed a significant correlation with cancer type. (median rank values in colorectal, stomach, pancreatic, and breast cancer were 79, 76, 5 and 0 respectively, p < 0.001) Five markers (IDO1, LAG3, PD-1, PD-L1, and TIGIT) showed significant correlation with MSI, while seven markers (CTLA4, IDO1, LAG3, PD-1, PD-L1, PD-L2, and TIGIT) were significantly associated with positive PD-L1 status. However, no significant association was seen based on TMB or tissue-specific grouping of patients. Conclusions: The expression of immune checkpoint markers varies from patient to patient, though transcript expression of several markers correlates with cancer type, MSI, and PD-L1 status. Clinical trials with patient selection based on the expression level of checkpoint markers matched to the corresponding ICB drug are warranted.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical significance of bone metabolism in the mandibular condyles in determining condylar resorptive changes. Twelve condyles of patients with idiopathic condylar resorption and degenerative joint disease were analysed using 99mTc HMDP SPECT/CT at baseline and subsequent computed tomography during the follow-up period. Twenty-two healthy condyles were enrolled as controls. After generating three-dimensional SPECT/CT images, two independent observers scored the degree of condylar uptake and measured the morphological changes in the condylar height and condylar volume. In the group with positive condylar uptake, the follow-up computed tomography showed significant decreases in condylar height (-1.69 ± 0.93 mm) and condylar volume (-12.51 ± 10.30%) when compared to healthy controls (condylar height, 0.09 ± 0.54 mm; condylar volume, -0.29 ± 4.22%) (P < 0.001). Moreover, the degree of uptake correlated with the changes in condylar height (observer 1, P = 0.012; observer 2, P = 0.039) and condylar volume (observer 1, P = 0.005; observer 2, P = 0.037). These results suggest that condylar bone metabolism is closely related to the resorptive activity. Thus, SPECT/CT would be useful in the prognostic evaluation or determination of treatment strategies for idiopathic condylar resorption and degenerative joint disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The data of head-to-head comparisons of the effect of bone-modifying agents (BMAs) in patients with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer without skeletal metastasis is limited. Thus, we conducted a network meta-analysis to compare each BMA for the efficacy of bone mineral densities (BMDs) and the risk of fracture. METHODS We performed a network meta-analysis to compare the change of BMDs and the risk of vertebral fracture in the studies included using a random-effect model. The primary outcomes are the change of BMD of the lumbar spine (LS) and the total hip (TH) from the baseline at 1 year from the initiation of the BMA and the risk of vertebral fracture. RESULTS We identified and included 15 studies in this analysis. All BMAs except risedronate showed a significant increase of BMD of the LS compared with groups without BMA, among which zoledronate showed the most BMD gain. At TH, bisphosphonates (alendronate, pamidronate, and zoledronate) and denosumab showed significant elevation compared with the no-BMA group. Denosumab was associated with the most BMD gain at the TH. Only denosumab reduced the risk of vertebral fracture (relative risk [95% confidence interval]: 0.40 [0.20-0.81]). Although zoledronate showed the highest BMD gain at the LS, it did not reduce the risk of vertebral fracture in this analysis. CONCLUSION Most bisphosphonates and denosumab significantly increased BMD at the LS and the TH in patients receiving ADT for prostate cancer without skeletal metastasis. In particular, zoledronate and denosumab were the most potent BMAs in terms of BMD increment at the LS and the TH, respectively. However, denosumab, not zoledronate, was the only BMA that showed a significant risk reduction of vertebral fracture. We need further studies to examine the change of bone quality and the effect on the risk of non-vertebral and hip fractures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal-related events (SREs) are related to morbidity and mortality in patients with bone metastatic prostate cancer, and preventive strategies based on patient risk assessment are recommended. However, potentiating factors for SREs in patients with bone metastatic prostate cancer are not well elucidated. METHODS We analyzed the clinical data from a controlled arm of a clinical trial comparing denosumab with zoledronate in patients with bone metastatic, castration resistant prostate cancer (ClinicalTrial.gov ID: NCT00321620) available at Project Data Sphere, a broad-access research platform. The primary endpoint was the first SRE after the inclusion to the trial, and the time to the first SRE was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards model based on patients' baseline characteristics including age, race, ECOG performance status (PS), Gleason score, TNM stage at diagnosis, metastasis pattern, and urine and serum laboratory data. RESULTS Seven hundred ten patients without documented history of osteopenia or osteoporosis whose data was available in the zoledronate arm of the trial were analyzed. The median age of the patients was 71 years old, the median follow-up was 225 days, and 295 patients (42%) had at least one SRE during this period. The univariate analysis showed that history of SREs, Gleason score ≥ 7, elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and high urine N-telopeptide cross-links/creatinine ratio (NTx/Cre) are significant baseline risk factors for SREs. Patients with the characteristics of history of SREs, Gleason score ≥ 7 and elevated serum ALP also showed a significantly higher hazard ratio of SREs in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of SREs in patients with bone metastatic prostate cancer may be higher in those with history of SREs, Gleason ≥ 7, and elevated serum ALP.

Abstract
2645 Background: Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has emerged as a promising treatment strategy for many solid tumors. Although safe for many patients, ICB causes immune-related adverse events (irAEs) including hepatitis, which may result in morbidity and treatment disruption. Severe hepatitis requires immunosuppression, including corticosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil. We conducted a meta-analysis of clinical trials to investigate the effect of adding ICB to conventional solid tumor therapy on the incidence of hepatitis. Methods: Phase 3 randomized clinical trials (RCTs) comparing ICB and conventional therapy to conventional therapy alone were chosen by database search on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. The odds ratios [OR] of any-grade and grade ≥3 hepatitis, elevated aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were calculated. Meta-analysis was conducted to determine the incidence of hepatitis, elevated AST, and elevated ALT among patients receiving ICB and those receiving conventional therapy alone. Subgroup analysis based on the mechanism of ICB (Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 [CTLA-4] inhibitor, programmed cell death protein 1 [PD-1] inhibitor, and programmed death-ligand 1 [PD-L1] inhibitor) was also conducted. Results: A total of 29 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) enrolling 18,829 participants were analyzed. Incidence of hepatitis was derived from 24 RCTs enrolling 15,183 patients, and incidence of grade ≥3 hepatitis was derived from 22 RCTs enrolling 13,846 patients. Incidence of elevated AST was extracted from 18 RCTs, and incidence of elevated ALT was extracted from 20 RCTs. Addition of ICB to conventional therapy was associated with an increase in incidence of any-grade hepatitis (OR 2.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.82-3.55) and grade ≥3 hepatitis (OR 4.22, 95% CI 2.51-7.11). The addition of ICB was also associated with an increase in incidence of elevated AST (any grade: OR 2.19, 95% CI 1.59-3.03; grade ≥3: OR 3.18, 95% CI 1.85-5.48) and elevated ALT (any grade: OR 2.08, 95% CI 1.47-2.92; grade ≥3: OR 2.41, 95% CI 1.40-4.14). Subgroup analysis based on the mechanism of ICB demonstrated increased incidence of grade ≥3 hepatitis associated with CTLA-4 inhibitor, PD-1 inhibitor, and PD-L1 inhibitor therapy (OR 2.78, 95% CI 1.26-6.14; OR 6.30, 95% CI 2.23-17.78; OR 4.73, 95% CI 1.83-12.23, respectively). No significant difference of heterogeneity was observed among subgroups ( I2= 0%, p = 0.43). Conclusions: Addition of ICB to conventional solid tumor therapy was associated with increased incidence of any-grade and severe hepatitis, and elevations of AST and ALT, regardless of the mechanism of ICB. Clinicians should weigh the risk of liver toxicity when considering addition of ICB therapy in patients with solid tumors.

Abstract
AIM Deterioration of patients from COVID-19 is associated with cytokine release syndrome attributed to an elevation in pro-inflammatory cytokines. Vitamin D reduces proinflammatory cytokines, and has the possibility of reducing complications from respiratory tract illnesses. METHOD This was a retrospective, observational, cohort study of patients with COVID-19 disease within a New York City Health System. Adult patients were included if they tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, and had a serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D level (25(OH)D) within the three previous months prior to their detected SARS-CoV-2 test. Patients were compared and evaluated based upon their 25(OH)D levels. The primary endpoints were hospitalization, need for oxygen support, and 90-day mortality. RESULTS 437 COVID-19 patients were included [67 (IQR: 56-79) years] within this cohort. Deficient plasma 25(OH)D levels (<20 ng/ml) were associated with an increased likelihood of oxygen support [OR:2.23 (95% CI: 1.46-3.44, p = 0.0002)] from COVID-19. Deficient plasma 25(OH)D levels were not independently associated with 90-day mortality or risk of hospitalization. Hospitalization rates (98%), oxygen support (93%), and mortality rates (49%) were highest in patients who had 25(OH)D levels less than 10 ng/ml when compared to other 25(OH)D levels. CONCLUSION Serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels may affect the need for oxygen support therapy in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emerging evidence suggests that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are associated with decreased risk of cardiovascular and renal events in type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. However, no study to date has compared the effect of SGLT-2 inhibitors with that of GLP-1 RAs in type 2 DM patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We herein investigated the benefits of SGLT-2 inhibitors and GLP-1 RAs in CKD patients. METHODS We performed a systematic literature search through November 2020. We selected randomized control trials that compared the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and a composite of renal outcomes. We performed a network meta-analysis to compare SGLT-2 inhibitors with GLP-1 RAs indirectly. Risk ratios (RRs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were synthesized. RESULTS Thirteen studies were selected with a total of 32,949 patients. SGLT-2 inhibitors led to a risk reduction in MACE and renal events (RR [95% CI]; 0.85 [0.75-0.96] and 0.68 [0.59-0.78], respectively). However, GLP-1 RAs did not reduce the risk of cardiovascular or renal adverse events (RR 0.91 [0.80-1.04] and 0.86 [0.72-1.03], respectively). Compared to GLP-1 RAs, SGLT-2 inhibitors did not demonstrate a significant difference in MACE (RR 0.94 [0.78-1.12]), while SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with a lower risk of renal events compared to GLP-1 RAs (RR 0.79 [0.63-0.99]). A sensitivity analysis revealed that GLP-1 analogues significantly decreased MACE when compared to placebo treatment (RR 0.81 [0.69-0.95]), while exendin-4 analogues did not (RR 1.03 [0.88-1.20]). CONCLUSIONS In patients with type 2 DM and CKD, SGLT-2 inhibitors were associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular and renal events, but GLP-1 RAs were not. SGLT-2 inhibitors significantly decreased the risk of renal events compared to GLP-1 RAs. Among GLP-1 RAs, GLP-1 analogues showed a positive impact on cardiovascular and renal outcomes, while exendin-4 analogues did not.

Abstract
BACKGROUND New York City emerged as an epicenter of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with mortality in a large patient population in the USA. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. PARTICIPANTS 6493 patients who had laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 with clinical outcomes between March 13 and April 17, 2020, who were seen in one of the 8 hospitals and/or over 400 ambulatory practices in the New York City metropolitan area MAIN MEASURES: Clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with in-hospital mortality. KEY RESULTS A total of 858 of 6493 (13.2%) patients in our total cohort died: 52/2785 (1.9%) ambulatory patients and 806/3708 (21.7%) hospitalized patients. Cox proportional hazard regression modeling showed an increased risk of in-hospital mortality associated with age older than 50 years (hazard ratio [HR] 2.34, CI 1.47-3.71), systolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg (HR 1.38, CI 1.06-1.80), a respiratory rate greater than 24 per min (HR 1.43, CI 1.13-1.83), peripheral oxygen saturation less than 92% (HR 2.12, CI 1.56-2.88), estimated glomerular filtration rate less than 60 mL/min/1.73m2 (HR 1.80, CI 1.60-2.02), IL-6 greater than 100 pg/mL (HR 1.50, CI 1.12-2.03), D-dimer greater than 2 mcg/mL (HR 1.19, CI 1.02-1.39), and troponin greater than 0.03 ng/mL (HR 1.40, CI 1.23-1.62). Decreased risk of in-hospital mortality was associated with female sex (HR 0.84, CI 0.77-0.90), African American race (HR 0.78 CI 0.65-0.95), and hydroxychloroquine use (HR 0.53, CI 0.41-0.67). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with COVID-19, older age, male sex, hypotension, tachypnea, hypoxia, impaired renal function, elevated D-dimer, and elevated troponin were associated with increased in-hospital mortality and hydroxychloroquine use was associated with decreased in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since December 2019, coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has spread worldwide. Identifying poor prognostic factors is helpful for risk stratification. In this meta-analysis, we investigated the association between severe COVID-19 and a change in white blood cell (WBC) count, an elevation of C-reactive protein (CRP), and fever. Moreover, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of leukocytosis and an elevation of CRP. METHODS We performed a systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library through April 20th, 2020. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. A sensitivity analysis was conducted according to the study size (>200 or <200) and median age (>55 or <55). Meta-regression analyses were conducted to examine possible sources of heterogeneity. We calculated the diagnostic accuracy of leukocytosis and CRP. RESULTS Eighteen studies with 3278 patients were selected. Fever, leukocytosis, and elevated CRP were associated with poor outcomes (OR (95% CI) 1.63 (1.06-2.51), 4.51 (2.53-8.04), and 11.97 (4.97-28.8), respectively). Leukopenia was associated with a better prognosis (OR 0.56, 95% CI 0.40-0.78). Sensitivity analyses showed similar tendencies. Meta-regression analysis for leukocytosis indicated that age, dyspnea, and hypertension contributed to heterogeneity. The pooled area under the leukocytosis and CRP curves were 0.70 (0.64-0.76) and 0.89 (0.80-0.99), respectively. CONCLUSION In patients with COVID-19, fever, leukocytosis, and an elevated CRP were associated with severe outcomes. Leukocytosis and CRP on arrival may predict poor outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal-related events (SREs) are critical events for patients with bone metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Thus, bone-modifying agents are recommended in this population. However, the baseline risk factors of SREs in patients with bone metastasis from NSCLC are not well established. METHODS We analyzed the patient-level data from the zoledronate arm of a clinical trial comparing denosumab with zoledronate in patients with bone metastasis ( ClinicalTrial.gov ID: NCT00330759) available at Project Data Sphere, a broad-access research platform. The primary endpoint was the first SRE from the inclusion to the trial, and the time to the first SRE was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS We analyzed 302 patients with NSCLC without a documented history of osteopenia or osteoporosis included in the zoledronate arm of the trial. Ninety-eight patients (32%) had at least one SRE. The univariate analysis showed that low serum albumin and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) are significant baseline risk factors for SREs (hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)]; 2.27 [1.43-3.61], and 1.91 [1.26-2.90], respectively). Additionally, osteoblastic and mixed type of bone metastasis showed a significantly lower risk of SREs compared with the osteolytic lesion (HR [95% CI]; 0.39 [0.21-0.72], and 0.31 [0.15-0.63], respectively). These factors also showed a significant association with the risk of SREs in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS We revealed that osteolytic bone metastasis, low serum albumin, and elevated serum ALP are risk factors for SREs in patients with bone metastasis from NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The best regimen of neo-adjuvant therapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is unknown. Recent studies have shown promising data that adding carboplatin or pembrolizumab improves the rate of pathologic complete response (pCR) in TNBC. Therefore, we performed a network meta-analysis to define the overall, most effective, neo-adjuvant systemic therapy for TNBC. METHODS We searched for studies comparing different neo-adjuvant regimens in patients with TNBC. We performed a network meta-analysis comparing the regimens using the random-effects model. We focused on anthracycline, bevacizumab, pembrolizumab, and platinum salts (Pl). All study regimens contained a taxane. We analyzed the rate of pCR (ypT0/is, N0), and the incidence of febrile neutropenia, grade 3-grade 4 thrombocytopenia, nausea/vomiting, and diarrhea. RESULTS We identified a total of 13 randomized control trials for this analysis. We compared ten different classes of regimens. We found that regimens containing Pl were significantly superior to non-PI-containing regimens for the rate of pCR. Similarly, pembrolizumab-containing regimens were associated with significantly higher pCR rates. Regimens containing bevacizumab significantly increased the rate of pCR as well. However, it was equivocal as to whether the addition of Pl to pembrolizumab-containing regimen increases pCR rates. Adding anthracycline into the regimen did not show an improved rate of pCR. In the safety analysis, regimens containing Pl were associated with a significantly higher incidence of febrile neutropenia and grade 3-grade 4 thrombocytopenia. The regimen containing anthracycline plus bevacizumab plus Pl was associated with a higher risk of gastrointestinal adverse events. CONCLUSIONS For TNBC, regimens containing bevacizumab, pembrolizumab, or Pl are most effective in terms of pCR rates, though it is unclear whether combining all these medications has the greatest efficacy. Additionally, the benefit of using anthracycline in the neo-adjuvant therapy regimen for TNBC is not apparent, which may warrant a further head-to-head comparison.

Abstract
We report that two widely-used drugs for erectile dysfunction, tadalafil and vardenafil, trigger bone gain in mice through a combination of anabolic and antiresorptive actions on the skeleton. Both drugs were found to enhance osteoblastic bone formation in vivo using a unique gene footprint and to inhibit osteoclast formation. The target enzyme, phosphodiesterase 5A (PDE5A), was found to be expressed in mouse and human bone as well as in specific brain regions, namely the locus coeruleus, raphe pallidus, and paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus. Localization of PDE5A in sympathetic neurons was confirmed by coimmunolabeling with dopamine β-hydroxylase, as well as by retrograde bone-brain tracing using a sympathetic nerve-specific pseudorabies virus, PRV152. Both drugs elicited an antianabolic sympathetic imprint in osteoblasts, but with net bone gain. Unlike in humans, in whom vardenafil is more potent than tadalafil, the relative potencies were reversed with respect to their osteoprotective actions in mice. Structural modeling revealed a higher binding energy of tadalafil to mouse PDE5A compared with vardenafil, due to steric clashes of vardenafil with a single methionine residue at position 806 in mouse PDE5A. Collectively, our findings suggest that a balance between peripheral and central actions of PDE5A inhibitors on bone formation together with their antiresorptive actions specify the osteoprotective action of PDE5A blockade.

Abstract
Background Measuring emotional status objectively is challenging, but voice pattern analysis has been reported to be useful in the study of emotion. Objective The purpose of this pilot study was to investigate the association between specific sleep measures and the change of emotional status based on voice patterns measured before and after nighttime sleep. Methods A total of 20 volunteers were recruited. Their objective sleep measures were obtained using a portable single-channel electroencephalogram system, and their emotional status was assessed using MIMOSYS, a smartphone app analyzing voice patterns. The study analyzed 73 sleep episodes from 18 participants for the association between the change of emotional status following nighttime sleep (Δvitality) and specific sleep measures. Results A significant association was identified between total sleep time and Δvitality (regression coefficient: 0.036, P=.008). A significant inverse association was also found between sleep onset latency and Δvitality (regression coefficient: –0.026, P=.001). There was no significant association between Δvitality and sleep efficiency or number of awakenings. Conclusions Total sleep time and sleep onset latency are significantly associated with Δvitality, which indicates a change of emotional status following nighttime sleep. This is the first study to report the association between the emotional status assessed using voice pattern and specific sleep measures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skeletal-related events (SREs) are significant contributors to the morbidity and mortality in patients with bone metastasis from breast cancer. Thus, bone-modifying agents (BMAs) are recommended in this population. However, the baseline risk factors of SREs in patients with bone metastasis from breast cancer receiving BMAs are not well understood. METHODS We analyzed the patient-level data from a controlled arm of a clinical trial comparing denosumab with zoledronate in patients with bone metastases from breast cancer (ClinicalTrial.gov ID: NCT00321464) available at Project Data Sphere, a broad-access research platform that collects and curates patient-level data from completed, phase III cancer trials. The primary endpoint was the first SRE after the inclusion to the trial. The time to the first on study SRE was analyzed using Cox proportional hazards model based on patients' baseline characteristics including age, race, ECOG performance status (PS), histology and immunohistochemistry of breast cancer, and urine and serum laboratory data. RESULTS Among 756 patients in the zoledronate arm of the trial, we excluded 64 patients with a documented history of osteopenia or osteoporosis. The median age of the patients was 56 years old, the median follow-up was 553 days, and 249 patients (36%) had SREs. The univariate analysis showed that black or African American heritage, ECOG PS > 0, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positivity, high urine N-telopeptide cross-links / creatinine ratio (NTx/Cre), and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) are significant baseline risk factors for SREs. Patients with the characteristics of ECOG PS > 0, HER2 positivity, and elevated ALP also showed a significantly higher hazard ratio of SREs in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS We determined risk factors for SREs in patients with bone metastasis from breast cancer.

Abstract
e15087 Background: Programmed death 1 (PD-1) inhibitors and Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitors are immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) approved for treatment of several different cancers. Colitis is a major immune-related adverse event associated with ICIs, but the risk of colitis with PD-1 versus PD-L1 inhibitors is not well characterized. Methods: We performed a meta-analysis for the incidence of all grade and grade 3-4 colitis with PD-1 inhibitor (nivolumab, pembrolizumab, and cemiplimab) or PD-L1 inhibitor (atezolizumab, avelumab, and durvalumab) monotherapy using a fixed effects model. We also conducted subgroup meta-analyses of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or urothelial carcinoma (UC) trials, and a network meta-analysis of randomized trials comparing PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors with docetaxel for NSCLC. We analyzed Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to estimate the reporting odds ratio (ROR) of each medication, which provides the estimated relative risk most valid in spontaneous report database. Results: We identified 88 studies that met inclusion for the analysis. PD-1 inhibitors were associated with higher incidence of all grade and grade 3-4 colitis compared to PD-L1 inhibitors in the analysis of all cancer types (1.49% vs 0.83%, relative risk (RR); 1.80, 95% confidence interval (CI); 1.22-2.67 for all grade colitis, and 0.85% vs 0.34%, RR; 2.52, 95% CI; 1.46-4.37 for grade 3-4 colitis). The meta-analyses on NSCLC and UC, and the network meta-analysis on NSCLC also showed the tendency that PD-1 inhibitors are associated with higher risk of all grade and grade 3-4 colitis, though only the analysis on UC for all grade colitis showed a significant difference. (1.95% vs 0.64%, RR; 3.05, 95% CI; 1.18 - 7.88) Retrospective analysis showed ROR of 16.78 (95% CI; 15.8-17.8) for PD-1 inhibitors, and 12.93 (95% CI; 10.74-15.42) for PD-L1 inhibitors. We found that ROR of PD-1inhibitors was 1.17 (95% CI; 0.97-1.43) compared to PD-L1 inhibitors. Conclusions: Our study showed that PD-1 inhibitors have higher risk of colitis than PD-L1 inhibitors.

Abstract
e12635 Background: The best regimen for neoadjuvant chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is unknown. Recent studies have shown promising data that adding carboplatin improves the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) in TNBC). Therefore, we performed a network meta-analysis to define the overall most effective neoadjuvant systemic therapy for TNBC. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE from inception to December 2019 for studies comparing the efficacy of different neoadjuvant regimens in patients with TNBC. We performed a network meta-analysis comparing the regimens in the selected studies using the random-effects model. We focused on anthracycline (A), bevacizumab (B), everolimus (E), and platinum salts (Pl) because these are the medications commonly added to taxane based regimens. All studies contained a taxane regimen. We analyzed the rate of pCR (ypT0/is, N0) and the incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, nausea/vomiting, and diarrhea. Results: We identified a total of 13 randomized control trials for this analysis. We compared eight different classes of regimens. We found that regimens containing Pl were significantly superior to Pl non-containing regimens for the rate of pCR. (risk ratio (RR) for pCR [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 1.66 [1.19-2.31], 1.37 [1.14-1.64], and 1.36 [1.14-1.62] for no medications of special interest vs Pl, A vs A+Pl, and A+B vs A+B+Pl, respectively). Regimens containing B were associated with a significantly better rate of pCR. (RR for pCR [95% CI]: 1.24 [1.06-1.46] and 1.23 [1.01-1.51] for A vs A+B and A+Pl vs A+B+Pl, respectively) In contrast, adding A into the regimen did not improve the rate of pCR. In the safety analysis, regimens containing Pl were associated with a significantly higher incidence of grade 3-4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia. Regimens containing B showed a higher incidence of grade 3-4 nausea/vomiting, and diarrhea. Conclusions: For TNBC, adding Pl or B into the neoadjuvant therapy regimen brings about a higher pCR rate, though they are associated with an increase in hematologic or gastrointestinal complications. The benefit of adding A to the neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen for TNBC is not apparent.

Abstract
PURPOSE The data of head-to-head comparisons of the anti-fracture efficacy of bone modifying agents (BMAs) in patients with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer receiving aromatase inhibitor (AI) are not available. Therefore, we conducted a network meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of different BMAs in patients with breast cancer receiving adjuvant AI. METHODS We performed a network meta-analysis to compare the change of bone mineral densities (BMDs) and the risk of fracture in the selected studies using a random effect model. The primary outcomes are the change of BMD of lumbar spine (LS) and total hip (TH) from the baseline (ΔBMD, %) at 1 and 2 years and the risk of fracture. RESULTS We identified and included a total of 16 randomized controlled trials for this analysis. All BMAs included (risedronate, zoledronate, and denosumab) were associated with a significant increase in BMD of LS and TH at 1 and 2 years compared with no upfront treatment group. Among BMAs, zoledronate and denosumab use resulted in significantly higher BMD of LS and TH at 1 and 2 years compared with risedronate. The risk of fracture was significantly lower in the patients who received denosumab or risedronate compared with the patients without upfront treatment (Relative risk (RR) [95% CI] 0.51 [0.38-0.67] and 0.54 [0.35-0.83], respectively). CONCLUSION Among the bisphosphonates, zoledronate increased BMD the most, but risedronate, not zoledronate, use was associated with lower risk of fracture. Denosumab increased BMD not only of LS but also of the cortical-bone-rich hip, and showed a significant reduction of fracture risk.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In recent years it has been attempted to use a distal radial artery (DRA) as a puncture site for cardiac catheterization and intervention. A patency of radial artery is important in hemodialysis patients because the radial artery is source as an arteriovenous shunt. However, the incidence of radial artery occlusion (RAO) is not known after DRA puncture.
Purpose
To compare RAO rates after DRA puncture between dialysis and non-dialysis patients.
Method
This was retrospective, observational and single center study. All consecutive 1,533 patients undergoing DRA puncture were analyzed. The primary endpoint is RAO rates. The secondary endpoint is composite bleeding adverse event rates. These endpoints were evaluated by a vascular echocardiography several hours or the next day after the procedure.
Result
Among 1,533 patients, 26 were dialysis patients and 1,504 were non-dialysis patients. 1,386 people (90.5%) succeeded in puncture. Radial artery occlusion occurred in 7 patients (0.4%), all of whom were non-dialysis patients. There was no significant difference of RAO rate in dialysis patients and non-dialysis patients.
Conclusion
When performing DRA puncture, the probability of radial artery occlusion is not higher in dialysis patients than non-dialysis patients. The DRA puncture may be one of the option as puncture site even in dialysis patients.

Abstract
Bacterial peritonitis, an infection of the ascitic fluid, can be classified etiologically as spontaneous or secondary bacterial peritonitis. The former is mainly caused by portal hypertension and its subsequent effects, whereas the latter is caused by the direct dissemination of bacteria into the peritoneal cavity. Previous reports have described some distinguishing features of these two entities. Here, we report the first known case of bacterial peritonitis with Aeromonas hydrophilia and Escherichia coli in a patient with malignant ascites associated with pancreatic carcinoma who exhibited features of both spontaneous and secondary peritonitis. Our report suggests that clinicians should also consider bacterial peritonitis in patients with malignant ascites who present with ostensibly cancer-related symptoms.

Abstract
This study investigated a case of spindle cell carcinoma (SpCC) in tongue pathological lesions. The patient experienced a local recurrence and distant metastasis after surgical intervention. Although standard chemotherapy was administered, a granulomatous mass continued to develop. This aggressive growth led to survival of the tumor. Secondary debulking surgery was performed to improve the patient's quality of life at the request of the patient. Using a tissue sample derived from the secondary debulking surgery, we performed an analysis of the tumor's cell surface antigens, differentiation potential, metastatic ability, and inhibition potential by anticancer reagents. In vitro analysis revealed that the cell population grown under adherent culture conditions expressed the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) markers CD73, CD90, and CD105. The cell line established from this SpCC contained colony-forming unit fibroblasts (CFU-Fs) and exhibited multipotent differentiation into several mesenchymal lineages, including bone, cartilage, and fat. The SpCC cells also displayed vigorous mobilization. These characteristics suggested that they had the differentiation potential of mesenchymal cells, especially MSCs, rather than that of epithelial cells. The surgical specimen analyzed in this study resisted the molecular target reagent cetuximab, which is an epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor. This clinical insight revealed that chemotherapy-resistant SpCC cells have different characteristics compared to most other cancer cells, which are sensitive to cetuximab. Our cell death assay revealed that SpCC cell death was induced by the anticancer drug imatinib, which is known to inhibit protein tyrosine kinase activity of ABL, platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα), and KIT. Here, we report recurrent SpCC with characteristics of MSCs and potential for treatment with imatinib.

Abstract
Lysine-specific demethylase 1A (LSD1, KDM1A) specifically demethylates di- and monomethylated histones H3K4 and K9, resulting in context-dependent transcriptional repression or activation. We previously identified an irreversible LSD1 inhibitor T-3775440, which exerts antileukemic activities in a subset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines by inducing cell transdifferentiation. The NEDD8-activating enzyme inhibitor pevonedistat (MLN4924, TAK-924) is an investigational drug with antiproliferative activities in AML, and is also reported to induce cell differentiation. We therefore tested the combination of these two agents in AML models. The combination treatment resulted in synergistic growth inhibition of AML cells, accompanied by enhanced transdifferentiation of an erythroid leukemia lineage into granulomonocytic-like lineage cells. In addition, pevonedistat-induced rereplication stress during the S phase was greatly augmented by concomitant treatment with T-3775440, as reflected by the increased induction of apoptosis. We further demonstrated that the combination treatment was markedly effective in subcutaneous tumor xenograft models as well as in a disseminated model of AML, leading to tumor eradication or prolonged survival in T-3775440/pevonedistat cotreated mice. Our findings indicate the therapeutic potential of the combination of LSD1 inhibitors and pevonedistat for the treatment of AML.

Abstract
In recent years, proactive surgical treatment has been reported to be effective for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). However, an uncertain resection entails the risk of recurrence, whereas an extensive surgical procedure may lead to a marked reduction in quality of life as a result of reduced masticatory function and poor cosmesis. Therefore, radiological assessment can be helpful to accurately localize MRONJ before surgery. The integrated single-photon emission computed tomography and computed tomography system (SPECT/CT) allows oral and maxillofacial surgeons to identify an area of MRONJ, especially when three-dimensional (3D) SPECT and CT fusion images are offered. A patient for whom 3D SPECT and CT image fusion (as developed in the radiology department of the study institution) contributed to determining the extent of the lesion, thereby leading to a favourable patient prognosis, is reported herein. There was exact correlation between the histological and radiological results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study was designed to investigate whether titres of antibody to two strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis, FDC381 and SU63, are associated with serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in Japanese periodontitis patients. DESIGN Forty-nine patients with moderate to advanced periodontitis and 40 periodontally healthy control subjects were included in this study. hs-CRP levels and antibody titres to P. gingivalis were measured at baseline and reassessment 3-4 months after periodontal treatment in periodontitis patients as well as at the time of examination in the periodontally healthy subjects. Further, the effect of periodontal therapy, including surgical treatment and use of antibacterials on both markers, was analysed in patients. RESULTS hs-CRP levels and antibody titres to P. gingivalis were higher in periodontitis patients than in control subjects, and they significantly decreased following periodontal treatment (p < 0.005). Also, a significant decrease in hs-CRP levels as a result of periodontal treatment was found in patients with hs-CRP levels >1 mgl(-1) at baseline (p < 0.005). Probing depth, clinical attachment level, and alveolar bone loss in patients were significantly associated with a higher antibody titre to both strains of P. gingivalis (p < 0.05), but were not related to hs-CRP levels. No relationship was observed between hs-CRP levels and tertiles as defined by titres of antibody to P. gingivalis strains FDC381 and SU63. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that hs-CRP levels were independent of antibody titres to P. gingivalis in Japanese periodontitis patients.

Abstract
Background Recent studies have suggested that periodontal disease increases the risk of atherothrombotic disease. Atherosclerosis has been characterized as a chronic inflammatory response to cholesterol deposition in the arteries. Although several studies have suggested that certain periodontopathic bacteria accelerate atherogenesis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice, the mechanistic link between cholesterol accumulation and periodontal infection-induced inflammation is largely unknown. Methodology/Principal Findings We orally infected C57BL/6 and C57BL/6.KOR-Apoeshl (B6.Apoeshl) mice with Porphyromonas gingivalis, which is a representative periodontopathic bacterium, and evaluated atherogenesis, gene expression in the aorta and liver and systemic inflammatory and lipid profiles in the blood. Furthermore, the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from P. gingivalis on cholesterol transport and the related gene expression was examined in peritoneal macrophages. Alveolar bone resorption and elevation of systemic inflammatory responses were induced in both strains. Despite early changes in the expression of key genes involved in cholesterol turnover, such as liver X receptor and ATP-binding cassette A1, serum lipid profiles did not change with short-term infection. Long-term infection was associated with a reduction in serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol but not with the development of atherosclerotic lesions in wild-type mice. In B6.Apoeshl mice, long-term infection resulted in the elevation of very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), LDL and total cholesterols in addition to the reduction of HDL cholesterol. This shift in the lipid profile was concomitant with a significant increase in atherosclerotic lesions. Stimulation with P. gingivalis LPS induced the change of cholesterol transport via targeting the expression of LDL receptor-related genes and resulted in the disturbance of regulatory mechanisms of the cholesterol level in macrophages. Conclusions/Significance Periodontal infection itself does not cause atherosclerosis, but it accelerates it by inducing systemic inflammation and deteriorating lipid metabolism, particularly when underlying hyperlidemia or susceptibility to hyperlipidemia exists, and it may contribute to the development of coronary heart disease.
