Abstract
BACKGROUND Pemigatinib is approved for patients with pretreated, locally advanced or metastatic CCA harboring FGFR2 rearrangements or fusions. We aim to assess the effectiveness and safety of pemigatinib in real-world setting. MATERIAL AND METHODS A joint analysis of two multicentre observational retrospective cohort studies independently conducted in France and Italy was performed. All consecutive FGFR2-positive patients affected by CCA and treated with pemigatinib as second- or further line of systemic treatment in clinical practice, within or outside the European Expanded Access Program, were included. RESULTS Between July 2020 and September 2022, 72 patients were treated with pemigatinib in 14 Italian and 25 French Centres. Patients had a median age of 57 years, 76% were female, 81% had ECOG-PS 0-1, 99% had intrahepatic CCA, 74% had ≥ 2 metastatic sites, 67% had metastatic disease at diagnosis, while 38.8% received ≥ 2 previous lines of systemic treatment. At data cut-off analysis (April 2023), ORR and DCR were 45.8% and 84.7%, respectively. Median DoR was 7 months (IQR: 5.8-9.3). Over a median follow-up time of 19.5 months, median PFS and 1-year PFS rate were 8.7 months and 32.8%. Median OS and 1-year OS rate were 17.1 months and 60.6%. Fatigue (69.4%), ocular toxicity (68%), nail toxicities (61.1%), dermatologic toxicity (41.6%) hyperphosphataemia (55.6%), stomatitis (48.6%), and diarrhea (36.1%) were the most frequent, mainly G1-G2 AEs. Overall incidence of G3 AEs was 22.2%, while no patient experienced G4 AE. Dose reduction and temporary discontinuation were needed in 33.3% and 40.3% of cases, with 1 permanent discontinuation due to AEs. CONCLUSIONS These results confirm the effectiveness and safety of pemigatinib in a real-world setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Liver resection is the only curative treatment for colorectal liver metastases (CLM). Resectability decision-making is therefore a key determinant of outcomes. Wide variation has been demonstrated in resectability decision-making, despite the existence of criteria. This paper summarises a study protocol to evaluate the potential added value of two novel assessment tools in assessing CLM technical resectability: the Hepatica preoperative MR scan (MR-based volumetry, Couinaud segmentation, liver tissue characteristics and operative planning tool) and the LiMAx test (hepatic functional capacity). METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study uses a systematic multistep approach, whereby three preparatory workstreams aid the design of the final international case-based scenario survey:Workstream 1: systematic literature review of published resectability criteria.Workstream 2: international hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) interviews.Workstream 3: international HPB questionnaire.Workstream 4: international HPB case-based scenario survey.The primary outcome measures are change in resectability decision-making and change in planned operative strategy, resulting from the novel test results. Secondary outcome measures are variability in CLM resectability decision-making and opinions on the role for novel tools. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study protocol has been approved by a National Health Service Research Ethics Committee and registered with the Health Research Authority. Dissemination will be via international and national conferences. Manuscripts will be published. REGISTRATION DETAILS The CoNoR Study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (registration number NCT04270851). The systematic review is registered on the PROSPERO database (registration number CRD42019136748).

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on healthcare systems, and cancer patients were amongst the most vulnerable. CONTACT is a national multidisciplinary study assessing the impact of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic upon diagnostic and treatment pathways among patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Methods
A novel, mixed prospective and retrospective design, with retrospective case identification of both cohorts, and trainee-performed data collection. The treatment of consecutive patients with newly diagnosed PDAC from a pre-COVID cohort (07/01/2019–03/03/2019) were compared to a cohort diagnosed during the first wave of SARS-CoV-2 in the UK (‘COVID’ cohort, 16/03/2020–10/05/2020), with 12-month follow-up.
Results
Among 984 patients (pre-COVID: n=483, COVID: n=501), across 96 hospitals, the COVID cohort were less likely to receive staging investigations other than CT scan (148/501, 29.5% vs 180/486, 37.2%; p=0.01). Among patients treated with curative intent, there was a reduction in the proportion of patients recommended surgery (42/77, 54.5% vs 72/94, 76.6%, p=0.001) and increase in the proportion recommended neoadjuvant therapy (35/77, 45.5% vs 22/94, 23.4%, p=0.002). Among patients within a non-curative pathway, fewer patients were recommended (201/424, 47.4% vs 223/389, 57.3%, p=0.004) or received palliative therapy (87/424, 20.5% vs 103/389, 26.5%, p=0.045). Ultimately, fewer patients in the COVID cohort underwent resection surgery (29/501, 6.4% vs 45/483, 9.3%, OR 0.64, 95%CI: 0.37–0.97, p=0.036), whilst more patients received no treatment whatsoever (347/501, 69.3% vs 286/483, 59.2% p=0.009). There was no difference in median survival between the COVID and pre-COVID cohorts, (105 days, IQR: 86–124 vs 130 days, IQR: 108–157, p=0.093).
Conclusions
The CONTACT study confirms alarming reduction in the staging and treatment provided to patients with PDAC diagnosed during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Restoration of cancer services to pre-pandemic standards must be urgently addressed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Female physicians in medicine are increasing, but disparities in female authorship exist. The aim of this study was to characterise factors associated with female first (FF) and female senior (SF) authorship in later phase systemic oncological clinical trials in biliary tract cancer (BTC) and identify any changes over time. SETTING Embase/Medline identified trial publications in BTC (2000-2020) were included. χ2 tests and log regression were used (assessed factors associated with FF and SF authorship, including changes over time (STATA V.16)). PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE FF and SF authorship in later phase systemic oncological clinical trials in BTC. SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURE Any changes over time? RESULTS Of 501 publications, 163 met inclusion criteria. The median percentage of female author representation in publications was 25%; there were no female authors in 13% of publications. Geographic location of the home institution of the first and senior authors was Asia (42%/42%), Europe (29%/29%), USA (24%/22%) and other (4%/6%), respectively. Overall, FF and SF author representation was 20% and 10%, respectively. The median position of the first female author was second in all the publication author lists. The phase of trial, journal-impact factor, industry funding or whether the study met its primary endpoint did not impact FF/SF author representation. More SF authors had home institutions in 'other' geographic locations (40% in 10 trials) (p=0.02) versus Asia (6%), Europe (8%) and USA (14%). There were no significant changes in FF/SF representation over time (p=0.61 and p=0.33 respectively). CONCLUSIONS FF and SF author representation in later phase systemic clinical trial publications in BTC is low and has not changed significantly over time. The underlying reasons for this imbalance need to be better understood and addressed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Somatostatin analogs (SSA) prolong progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with well-differentiated gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs). However, the eligibility criteria in randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have been restricted, which contrasts with the vast heterogeneity found in NENs. METHODS We identified patients with well-differentiated (Ki-67% ≤20%), metastatic GEP-NENs treated in first line with SSA monotherapy from the Spanish R-GETNE registry. The therapeutic effect was evaluated using a Bayesian Cox model. The objective was to compare survival-based outcomes from real-world clinical practice versus RCTs. RESULTS The dataset contained 535 patients with a median age of 62 years (range: 26-89). The median Ki-67% was 4 (range: 0-20). The most common primary tumor sites were as follows: midgut, 46%; pancreas, 34%; unknown primary, 10%; and colorectal, 10%. Half of the patients received octreotide LAR (n = 266) and half, lanreotide autogel (n = 269). The median PFS was 28.0 months (95% CI: 22.1-32.0) for octreotide versus 30.1 months (95% CI: 23.1-38.0) for lanreotide. The overall hazard ratio for lanreotide versus octreotide was 0.90 (95% credible interval: 0.71-1.12). The probability of effect sizes >30% with lanreotide versus octreotide was 2 and 6% for midgut and foregut NENs, respectively. CONCLUSION Our study evaluated the external validity of RCTs examining SSAs in the real world, as well as the main effect-modifying factors (progression status, symptoms, tumor site, specific metastases, and analytical data). Our results indicate that both octreotide LAR and lanreotide autogel had a similar effect on PFS. Consequently, both represent valid alternatives in patients with well-differentiated, metastatic GEP-NENs.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In line with the NCRI framework, appropriate staging and classification of pancreatic cancer, with particular relevance to vascular involvement, is essential to ensure patients are offered all potential treatment options both at diagnosis and post-neoadjuvant therapy. This pan-specialty national collaborative consensus project, supported by PCUK,AUGIS,PSGBI,RCSEng,NCRI,RCR and BSGAR, aimed to develop a succinct radiological reporting template to allow a more consistent and standardized means of detailing all clinically-relevant aspects of pancreatic cancer, which, in addition to the aforementioned benefits, will allow more efficient MDT review, improved ability to audit national practice, and optimized clinical trial design.
Methods
In stage one, a core group of stakeholders from surgery, radiology and oncology was formed to establish current practice and determine the optimal data-set for a template. This included a blinded radiological validation study of established templates in use (Beth-Israel, PROTRACT and Glasgow proformas), and national survey of consultant surgeons on the PSGBI mailing list. Thereafter, consensus meetings led to the development of a provisional template. In stage two, representatives from surgery, radiology and oncology at all UK HPB units attended a consensus meeting to discuss and finalise the first official template draft, with subsequent trial utilisation in clinical practice.
Results
In stage one, the radiological assessment highlighted a significant variation in reporting of vascular involvement, with 100% concordance in only 30% of cases. Within the surgeon survey, amongst various tumour-related factors, most notably a significant majority preferred a specific range of degrees of vascular involvement, and specific information regarding tributary involvement and associated narrowing/occlusion/thrombosis. Both processes, and subsequent national consensus meetings in stage two, helped establish the ideal factors required in a template with respect to usability, clinical relevance, applicability and IT-factors, resulting in the generation of the PACT-UK proforma that will be presented at the congress.
Conclusions
This pan-specialty collaborative consensus project has successfully produced the first nationally-developed pancreatic cancer radiological reporting template. In stage three, the PACT-UK group aim to continue trialing the proforma nationally, with upcoming workshops facilitated by RCR/BSGAR to ensure buy-in from radiologists at all HPB units. Further representation from all units is welcomed, with the philosophy that template data-points can and will continue to evolve on the basis of ongoing feedback from consensus meetings, and following the development of more aggressive surgical techniques and novel neoadjuvant therapies. Plans for the use of PACT-UK within national audit and clinical trials is under-way.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Even after resection biliary tract cancer has a poor outlook. Follow-up is commonly utalises and the sialyl-Lewis tetra saccharide antigen Ca19.9, a known tumour marker in pancreatic and biliary malignancy (upper limit of normal (ULN) 37U/ml). However, the evidence base for the utility of Ca19.9 is limited. The UK BILCAP trial examined the use of adjuvant capecitabine chemotherapy in resected biliary tract cancer and establishing a new global standard of care. Ca19.9 was regularly measured as part of the BILCAP protocol, this provides an opportunity to assess the use of this marker in a large trial with complete patient follow-up.
Methods
Between March 2006 and December 2014 447 patients underwent resectional surgery (R0 or R1) then were randomised to receive capecitabine chemotherapy or observation. CT imaging and Ca19.9 were performed 3 monthly in year 1, 6 monthly in year 2, and annually thereafter up to 5 years. Follow up was continued until all patients had 5 years follow-up. Recurrence was based mainly on imaging criteria combined with the clinical presentation. The cohort was divided into progression and non- progression groups and the Ca19. 9 values recorded were investigated using descriptive analyses with cut-off of 37 (ULN), 100 and 400U/ml.
Results
Of 447 study patients 440 had at least one Ca19.9 measurement from either post-operative baseline (394) or a follow-up visit (422). Baseline Ca19-9 was elevated above 37U/ml in 96 patients and 82 (85%) went on to develop recurrence. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV) of the Ca19.9 on follow up are shown in the table.
Conclusions
Although high Ca19.9 levels predict recurrence as shown by acceptable positive predictive values at cut-offs of 100 and 400U/ml the negative predictive values are very poor as most patients develop recurrence without elevation of Ca19.9. Ca19.9 measurement is of very limited value in the follow up of patients with resected biliary cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The clinical benefit and acceptability to patients of routine surveillance after resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. Furthermore, expert guidelines around the world offer conflicting recommendations. This study is a systematic review of evidence for surveillance programs.
Methods
A systematic review of studies evaluating different surveillance methods was undertaken. Meta-analyses were performed for those studies reporting rates of asymptomatic recurrence, treatment of recurrence and overall survival, according to different surveillance methods.
Results
There were ten studies included in the literature review. Five studies were appropriate for meta-analysis (1,596 patients). If enrolled in an active surveillance program, patients were more likely to have recurrence detected at an asymptomatic stage (Pooled Rate: 49.3% vs. 19.1%, p = 0.043). In terms of clinical outcomes, patients with asymptomatic recurrence were more likely to receive treatment for recurrence (Odds Ratio 3.49; 95% CI: 1.73-7.07; p < 0.001) and had longer overall survival (Mean Difference: 9.5 months; 95% CI: 4.1-14.8; p < 0.001) than those with symptoms at time of recurrence.
Conclusions
From this systematic review and meta-analysis of early data it appears that routine surveillance after surgery for PDAC detects more patients at the asymptomatic stage. Data from these non-randomised trials also suggest that treatment rates and survival may be superior in patients were recurrence is detected when asymptomatic. As such, these data suggest that routine surveillance may improve patient outcomes, however an appropriately conducted trial would be required to address concerns that various sources of bias may be affecting these results.

Abstract
Biliary tract cancer, comprising gallbladder cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and ampullary cancer, represents a more uncommon entity outside high-endemic areas, though global incidence is rising. The majority of patients present at a late stage, and 5-year survival remains poor. Advanced stage disease is incurable, and though palliative chemotherapy has been shown to improve survival, further diagnostic and therapeutic options are required in order to improve patient outcomes. Although certain subtypes of biliary tract cancer are relatively rich in targetable mutations, attaining tumour tissue for histological diagnosis and treatment monitoring is challenging due to locoregional anatomical constraints and patient fitness. Liquid biopsies offer a safe and convenient alternative to invasive procedures and have great potential as diagnostic, predictive and prognostic biomarkers. In this review, the current standard of care for patients with biliary tract cancer, future treatment horizons and the possible utility of liquid biopsies within a variety of contexts will be discussed. Circulating tumour DNA, circulating microRNA and circulating tumour cells are discussed with an overview of their potential applications in management of biliary tract cancer. A summary is also provided of currently recruiting clinical trials incorporating liquid biopsies within biliary tract cancer research.

Abstract
Fibroblasts display extensive transcriptional heterogeneity, yet functional annotation and characterization of their heterocellular relationships remains incomplete. Using mass cytometry, we chart the stromal composition of 18 murine tissues and 5 spontaneous tumor models, with an emphasis on mesenchymal phenotypes. This analysis reveals extensive stromal heterogeneity across tissues and tumors, and identifies coordinated relationships between mesenchymal and immune cell subsets in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Expression of CD105 demarks two stable and functionally distinct pancreatic fibroblast lineages, which are also identified in murine and human healthy tissues and tumors. Whereas CD105-positive pancreatic fibroblasts are permissive for tumor growth in vivo, CD105-negative fibroblasts are highly tumor suppressive. This restrictive effect is entirely dependent on functional adaptive immunity. Collectively, these results reveal two functionally distinct pancreatic fibroblast lineages and highlight the importance of mesenchymal and immune cell interactions in restricting tumor growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND 68Ga-DOTA0-Tyr3-octreotide (68Ga-DOTATOC) positron emission tomography-CT (PET-CT) has superior diagnostic performance compared to the licensed tracer OctreoScan single photon emission CT-CT in patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NETs). A new preparation of 68Ga-DOTATOC using a new 'ready-to-use' 68Ga-DOTATOC formulation for injection has been developed (68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC)). OBJECTIVES This study aimed to assess the safety and tolerability of 68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC) and evaluate the feasibility and robustness of implementing it in a NET clinical imaging service. METHODS A first-in-human phase I/II multicentre, open-label study of a single dose of 68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC) 2 MBq/kg±10% (range 100-200 MBq) in patients with biopsy-proven grade 1-2 GEP-NETs. PET-CT was performed post injection. Patients were followed up for 28 days. We next implemented this new synthesis methodology in a clinical service assessed over 11 months. RESULTS Twenty consenting patients were recruited; 14 males, 6 females; mean (SD) age 58 years (12); NET grade 1 (70%), grade 2 (30%); and 75% with stage IV disease. Twelve patients experienced at least one adverse event (AE) during the study with no grade 3-4 toxicities. Only four AEs were classified as possibly (headache (n=1; 4%), nausea (1; 4%)) or probably (dysgeusia (1; 4%), paraesthesia (1; 4%)) related to the study preparation. One hundred thirteen vials of 68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC) were synthesised with the 'kit' over a period of 11 months for clinical utility. Only 2/113 vials (1.77%) were rejected. CONCLUSIONS The new ready-to-use preparation of 68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC) for injection was safe and well tolerated. This has led to the world's first (EMA) licensed 68Ga-DOTATOC (SomaKIT TOC) radiopharmaceutical for the utility of PET imaging in patients with NETs. This preparation can be robustly implemented into routine clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (panNETs) arise sporadically or as part of a genetic predisposition syndrome. CT/MRI, endoscopic ultrasonography and functional imaging using Octreoscan localise and stage disease. This study aimed to evaluate the complementary role of 68Gallium (68Ga)-DOTA PET/CT in managing patients with panNETs. DESIGN A retrospective study conducted across three tertiary UK NET referral centres. METHODS Demographic, clinical, biochemical, cross-sectional and functional imaging data were collected from patients who had undergone a 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT scan for a suspected panNET. RESULTS We collected data for 183 patients (97 male): median (SD) age 63 (14.9) years, 89.1 vs. 9.3% (n=163 vs. 17) alive vs. dead (3 data missing), 141 sporadic vs. 42 familial (MEN1, n=36; 85.7%) panNETs. Non-functional vs. functional tumours comprised 73.2 vs. 21.3% (n=134 vs. 39) (10 missing). Histological confirmation was available in 89% of individuals (n=163) but tumour grading (Ki67 classiifcation) was technically possible only in a smaller cohort (n=143): grade 1, 50.3% (n=72); grade 2, 46.2% (n=66) and grade 3, 3.5% (n=5) (40 histopathological classification either not technically feasible or biopsy not perfomed). 60.1% (n=110) were localised, 14.2% (n=26) locally advanced and 23.5% (n=43) metastatic (4 missing). 224 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT scans were performed in total for: diagnosis/staging 40% (n=88), post-operative assessment/clinical surveillance 53% (n=117) and consideration of peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT) 8% (n=17) (2 missing). PET/CT results confirmed other imaging findings (53%), identified new disease sites (28.5%) and excluded suspected disease (5%). Overall, 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT imaging findings provided additional information in 119 (54%) patients and influenced management in 85 (39%) cases. CONCLUSION 68Ga-DOTA PET/CT imaging more accurately stages and guides treatment in patients with sporadic/familial panNETs with newly diagnosed/recurrent disease.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Brain metastases (BMs) incidence in patients with extra-pulmonary neuroendocrine neoplasms (EP-NENs) is unclear, with no available management recommendations. This study aimed to review the clinical presentation, management and survival outcomes of patients with EP-NENs and BMs at a European Centre of Excellence.
METHODS
A retrospective single-centre analysis of consecutive patients with EP-NENs (Aug 2004-Feb 2020) was conducted. Median overall survival (OS)/survival from BMs diagnosis were estimated (Kaplan Meier).
RESULTS
Of 786 patients, 15 (1.9%) had BMs, median age 61y (range 15–77); 8 (53%) male, primary NEN site: unknown 40%; oesophageal 13%; small bowel 13%; pancreas 13%; gastric 7%; cervix 7% and bladder 7%. Most patients with BMs had grade 3 (G3) NENs (11, 73%), 3 (20%) were G2 and 1 (7%)G1. Eight (53%) had poorly-differentiated NENs, 6 well-differentiated and 1 not recorded. Two (13%) patients had synchronous BMs at diagnosis, whilst 13 (87%) developed BMs metachronously. Median time to development of BMs after initial NEN diagnosis: 15.9 months (range 2.5–139.5). Five patients had a solitary BM, 4 had 2–9 lesions and 6 had >10 BMs. The most commonly affected sites were the cerebrum (13, 87%), cerebellum (6, 40%), leptomeninges (2, 13%) and orbit (1, 7%). The most common presenting symptoms were limb weakness, headache, confusion, visual disturbance (each n=3, 20%), seizures (2, 13%), word-finding difficulty (2, 13%) and facial weakness/ptosis (1, 7%). Median OS from initial NEN diagnosis was 23.6-months [95%-CI 15.2–31.3]; median time to death from BMs diagnosis was 3.0-months [95%-CI 0.0–8.3]. Treatment of BMs was surgery (n=3); radiotherapy (n=6); 5 had WBRT, one localised radiotherapy (orbit). Six (40%) had best supportive care.
CONCLUSION
BMs in patients with EP-NENs are rare and predominantly in G3 NENs, with diverse intracranial distribution. Although uncommon, BMs from NENs behave aggressively and greater understanding is needed to improve therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Lorentz-force Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) magnetometers have been proposed as a replacement for magnetometers currently used in consumer electronics market. Being MEMS devices, they can be manufactured in the same die as accelerometers and gyroscopes, greatly reducing current solutions volume and costs. However, they still present low sensitivities and large offsets that hinder their performance. In this article, a 2-axis out-of-plane, lateral field sensing, CMOS-MEMS magnetometer designed using the Back-End-Of-Line (BEOL) metal and oxide layers of a standard CMOS (Complementary Metal–Oxide–Semiconductor) process is proposed. As a result, its integration in the same die area, side-by-side, not only with other MEMS devices, but with the readout electronics is possible. A shielding structure is proposed that cancels out the offset frequently reported in this kind of sensors. Full-wafer device characterization has been performed, which provides valuable information on device yield and performance. The proposed device has a minimum yield of 85.7% with a good uniformity of the resonance frequency fr¯=56.8 kHz, σfr=5.1 kHz and quality factor Q¯=7.3, σQ=1.6 at ambient pressure. Device sensitivity to magnetic field is 37.6fA·μT−1 at P=1130 Pa when driven with I=1mApp.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Subtrochanteric fractures are associated with a high rate of complications. Intramedullary nails have proven to be the best choice for treatment, but no implant has been shown to be superior to another. We want to study the differences between treating subtrochanteric fractures in the elderly with two different types of nails: T2 Recon vs Gamma3 long. MATERIAL AND METHODS Comparative retrospective study between 2013 and 2015 with 54 patients with subtrochanteric fractures and more than 65 years. The average follow-up is 12 months; 26 patients were treated with T2 Recon, and 28 with Gamma3. The duration of surgery, need for transfusion, evolution and complications of fractures were compared in both groups. RESULTS The duration of surgery was significantly longer for T2 Recon (p = 0.035), while the need for transfusion and fracture evolution were similar in both groups. Three cases required another surgery to achieve the final consolidation of the fracture. Two of them due to a failure of the T2 Recon implant, which represents 7.69% of the patients in this group, while the other case belonged to the Gamma3 group and it was sufficient to perform a nail dynamization. CONCLUSIONS We found no statistically significant differences, except for a longer surgical time in the T2 Recon group, being a surgeon-dependent variable that is not enough to prove that one nail is better than another.

Abstract
Pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is the most common tumour of the salivary glands, and can recur even after proper surgery. The extent and timing of surgery for recurrent tumours remains controversial, and multiple recurrences pose a special challenge. We evaluated all recurrent PAs (RPAs) treated at the Helsinki University Hospital through 2004-2013 focusing on patients with multiple recurrences. Follow-up data were obtained until January 2018. Of the 47 patients, 70% were women and the median age was 33.5 years. Most of the RPAs were located in the parotid gland (87%), and six (13%) in the submandibular gland. One-third (17/47) of tumours had been primarily excised. This patient population experienced 75 recurrent events in total with two or more recurrences in 14 patients (30%). The time interval between recurrences shortened after each recurrent event and the tumour was more likely to be multifocal. At the end of the follow-up period, 15% had recurrent disease and malignant transformation had occurred in 6%. Treatment for PA and RPA is challenging and requires centralised management. Patients with RPA are often young and recurrences may cause lifelong morbidity, especially when the tumour recurs repeatedly. The utilisation and timing of postoperative radiotherapy needs to be discussed as well as the potential risk for malignant transformation in this patient population.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an evidence-based clinical practice guideline to assist in clinical decision making for patients with resected biliary tract cancer. METHODS ASCO convened an Expert Panel to conduct a systematic review of the literature on adjuvant therapy for resected biliary tract cancer and provide recommended care options for this patient population. RESULTS Three phase III randomized controlled trials, one phase II trial, and 16 retrospective studies met the inclusion criteria. RECOMMENDATIONS Based on evidence from a phase III randomized controlled trial, patients with resected biliary tract cancer should be offered adjuvant capecitabine chemotherapy for a duration of 6 months. The dosing used in this trial is described in the qualifying statements, while it should be noted that the dose of capecitabine may also be determined by institutional and regional practices. Patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder cancer and a microscopically positive surgical resection margin (R1 resection) may be offered chemoradiation therapy. A shared decision-making approach is recommended, considering the risk of harm and potential for benefit associated with radiation therapy for patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma or gallbladder cancer.

Abstract
Background Transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling promotes tumor immunosuppression; its inhibition in the tumor microenvironment may enhance the response to anti-PD-L1 treatment. M7824 is an innovative first-in-class bifunctional fusion protein composed of 2 extracellular domains of TGF-βRII (a TGF-β “trap”) fused to a human IgG1 mAb against PD-L1. Building upon encouraging efficacy observed in a phase 1 study, the present study will evaluate M7824 clinical benefit in patients with pretreated biliary tract cancer (BTC). Methods This multicenter, international trial is evaluating M7824 monotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic (LA/M) BTC unselected for tumor PD-L1 expression who had disease progression after or were intolerant to first-line platinum-based therapy. Eligible patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed LA/M intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), extrahepatic CCA, or gallbladder cancer. Patients must not have received prior immunotherapy, therapy with checkpoint inhibitors, or anti-TGF-β therapy. Patients will receive M7824 1,200 mg every 2 weeks intravenously up to 24 months or until confirmed disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or trial withdrawal. The primary endpoint is confirmed objective response; key secondary endpoints include duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Results This is a trial in progress; results are pending. Conclusions BTCs are a group of cancers with poor prognosis and few treatment options. For second-line therapy, no standard of care exists, and overall response rates (ORRs) with chemotherapy are <10%. M7824 has demonstrated promising preclinical activity as well as antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile in two phase 1 studies. In an expansion cohort of study NCT02699515 of 30 patients with pretreated advanced BTC, M7824 monotherapy demonstrated a 23.3% confirmed ORR by investigator assessment, with durable responses. The present study is, therefore, supported by preclinical and clinical evidence and will provide further insight of M7824 in BTC.

Abstract
Goblet cell carcinoids (GCCs) of the appendix are rare tumors, characterized by a carcinoid-like organoid growth pattern. Despite the term carcinoid, neuroendocrine features are inconspicuous, and its behavior is distinct from carcinoid. Its high-grade counterpart is designated as adenocarcinoma ex GCC. We conducted a retrospective study of 105 tumors to find prognostic values of a variety of clinicopathologic features. The tumors were subclassified as low grade, equivalent to classic type, and high grade, defined as loss of organoid pattern, and a proportion (%) of low and high grades were documented in each tumor. Correlations between survival and various clinicopathologic parameters were investigated. One-third were pure low grade, while the remainder contained variable high-grade component ranging from 5% to 95%. Neuroendocrine cell component ranged from 0% to 90% (median, 5), while mucus cell component ranged from 5% to 100% (median, 70). By univariate analysis, size, stage, high-grade component, nuclear grade, surgery, and chemotherapy correlated with cancer-related survival (CSS), and by multivariate analysis, stage (P=.001), high-grade component (P=.008), and tumor size (P=.005) correlated with CSS. There was significant difference in CSS when the cases were grouped by high-grade component: <40%, 40% to 90%, and ≤90% (P<.001). Our results indicate that staging and proportion of high-grade histology may provide important prognostic information. Neuroendocrine component was insignificant in both low- and high-grade areas. In light of our findings, this tumor type is best regarded as a variant of adenocarcinoma, and the term crypt cell adenocarcinoma more appropriately reflects the nature and origin of this tumor group.

Abstract
The irreducible dislocation of the hallux interphalangeal joint is an infrequent condition and only a few cases have been described. It presents as dorsal dislocation with interposition of the sesamoid bone, which has the possibility of being radiologically undetectable. We present the case of a 29 year-old patient who, after a sports trauma sustained a hallux interphalangeal dislocation that went unnoticed for eight days. Since, closed reduction was not possible, as occurred in several cases reported in the literature, open reduction was performed through a dorsal incision. Based on a bibliographic review, it is possible to state that there are several treatment options and multiple approaches, and that these lesions usually have a good prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
The challenge to improve outcomes for patients diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer remains very real with only small improvements in median survival gained by the use of systemic chemotherapy and little improvement in 5-year survival over the past decades. The advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor nucleic acids has opened up the possibility of improving outcomes through personalized therapies selected on the basis of tumor genetics.
Whilst NGS biomarkers can be measured in tumor biopsies sampled shortly before and after treatment this is often not practical for ethical, logistical and simple lack of availability. To circumvent problems associated with tumor sampling we have developed and evaluated blood-borne nucleic acids biomarkers for patients diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer.
Approach
We developed a NGS circulating free DNA (cfDNA) analysis pipeline based on the generation of whole genome NGS libraries followed by sequencing of over 600 cancer-associated genes using Agilent SureSelect. Using whole blood collected with Streck cell free DNA blood collection tubes (cfDNA BCT) we optimised combined circulating tumor cell (CTC) enrichment and cfDNA isolation. Quantitative measurements of KRAS mutations using both NGS and droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) were used to compare the tumor component present in both CTCs and cfDNA. We evaluated the overall approach using External Quality Assessment (EQA) controls and over 50 advanced pancreatic cancer patient samples. For CTC analysis we also compared epitope dependent (CellSearch) and independent (Parsortix) enrichment.
Results
After applying our NGS pipeline to 5 EQA genomic controls we identified all 14 known mutations correctly indicating high sensitivity and specificity. Both ddPCR and NGS identified KRAS mutations in patient cfDNA with a higher success rate seen for ddPCR consistent with the higher sensitivity of this methodology. From the NGS output additional mutations were detected in samples which either harboured or lacked detectable KRAS mutations. Consistent with previous observations CellSearch CTCs were detected at low levels in around 20% of patients with a similar frequency seen in initial analysis of CTCs obtained by epitope independent enrichment (Parsortix). In general KRAS mutations were detected at a higher level in patient cfDNA compared to enriched CTCs although some patients showed detectable CTC KRAS mutations with no KRAS mutations detected in their cfDNA by either ddPCR or NGS. Ongoing analysis is aimed at establishing if the molecular observations correlate with clinical outcome.
Conclusion
Combined CTC enrichment and cfDNA isolation is readily achievable using a single Streck cfDNA BCT. Results indicate that combined CTC and cfDNA analysis is more sensitive than either approach alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ABC-02 (Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer) study established cisplatin and gemcitabine (CisGem) as the standard first-line chemotherapy for patients with locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract cancer (BTC). We examine quality of life (QoL), describe the long-term survivors and provide a long-term outcome. METHODS A total of 410 BTC patients were randomised to receive either CisGem or gemcitabine alone (Gem); 324 patients consented to complete EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-PAN26 QoL questionnaires; 268 (83%) patients returned at least one QoL questionnaire (134 in each arm). Long-term survivors were defined as those surviving over 2 years and we performed a final analysis of the primary outcome; overall survival (OS). RESULTS Most QoL scales showed a trend favouring the combined CisGem arm, including functional and symptomatic scales, although the differences were not statistically significant. Forty-five (11%)) patients survived at least 2 years (34 received CisGem and 11 Gem) and 21 (5%) 3 years or more (14 received CisGem and 7 Gem). After a median follow-up of 9.2 months and 398 deaths, the median OS was 11.7 months for CisGem and 8.1 months for Gem (hazard ratio (HR)=0.65, 95% CI: 0.53-0.79, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The survival advantage of CisGem compared to Gem was not associated with an improvement or deterioration of QoL. Long-term survivors were more likely to have received CisGem and the long-term OS is identical to that previously described.

Abstract
Circulating miRNA stability suggests potential utility of miRNA based biomarkers to monitor tumor burden and/or progression, particularly in cancer types where serial biopsy is impractical. Assessment of miRNA specificity and sensitivity is challenging within the clinical setting. To address this, circulating miRNAs were examined in mice bearing human SCLC tumor xenografts and SCLC patient derived circulating tumor cell explant models (CDX). We identified 49 miRNAs using human TaqMan Low Density Arrays readily detectable in 10 μl tail vein plasma from mice carrying H526 SCLC xenografts that were low or undetectable in non-tumor bearing controls. Circulating miR-95 measured serially in mice bearing CDX was detected with tumor volumes as low as 10 mm(3) and faithfully reported subsequent tumor growth. Having established assay sensitivity in mouse models, we identified 26 miRNAs that were elevated in a stage dependent manner in a pilot study of plasma from SCLC patients (n = 16) compared to healthy controls (n = 11) that were also elevated in the mouse models. We selected a smaller panel of 10 previously reported miRNAs (miRs 95, 141, 200a, 200b, 200c, 210, 335#, 375, 429) that were consistently elevated in SCLC, some of which are reported to be elevated in other cancer types. Using a multiplex qPCR assay, elevated levels of miRNAs across the panel were also observed in a further 66 patients with non-small cell lung, colorectal or pancreatic cancers. The utility of this circulating miRNA panel as an early warning of tumor progression across several tumor types merits further evaluation in larger studies.

Abstract
CONTEXT Carcinoid syndrome (CS) is associated with elevated serotonin, diarrhea, flushing, and increased risk of valvular heart disease. Many patients respond to somatostatin analogs initially, but response diminishes in most patients. Additional options are needed. OBJECTIVE To assess whether telotristat etiprate (TE) can reduce gastrointestinal symptoms in CS and reduce urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (u5-HIAA; a biomarker of serotonin). DESIGN A prospective, exploratory, dose-escalating 12-week, open-label, multicenter study of TE with efficacy and safety analyses. SETTING A multicenter study. PATIENTS Eligible patients had metastatic, well-differentiated, neuroendocrine tumors and CS with ≥ four bowel movements (BMs) per day. Somatostatin analog use was allowed. INTERVENTIONS TE, a novel oral inhibitor of peripheral serotonin synthesis. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary: safety. Secondary: daily BMs, stool form, and u5-HIAA. RESULTS Fifteen patients were enrolled, and 14 completed the treatment period. All patients experienced reductions in BMs per day (mean decrease, 43.5%). A 74.2% mean reduction in u5-HIAA, the main metabolite of serotonin, was observed, with generally greater reductions in patients with greater reductions in BMs per day. Nine patients (75%) reported "adequate relief" of gastrointestinal symptoms at 12 weeks, compared with two (17%) at baseline. Stool form and flushing also improved. Adverse events were mostly gastrointestinal (n = 10; 67%), consistent with underlying illness; three adverse events were serious (abdominal pain, diarrhea, and gastroenteritis) but were judged unrelated. CONCLUSION TE was generally safe and well tolerated. Patients experienced substantial improvement in CS and reductions in u5-HIAA, consistent with the mechanism of action of TE. These results support further evaluation in phase 3 studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of sequential or simultaneous telomerase vaccination (GV1001) in combination with chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer. METHODS TeloVac was a three-group, open-label, randomised phase 3 trial. We recruited patients from 51 UK hospitals. Eligible patients were treatment naive, aged older than 18 years, with locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive either chemotherapy alone, chemotherapy with sequential GV1001 (sequential chemoimmunotherapy), or chemotherapy with concurrent GV1001 (concurrent chemoimmunotherapy). Treatments were allocated with equal probability by means of computer-generated random permuted blocks of sizes 3 and 6 in equal proportion. Chemotherapy included six cycles of gemcitabine (1000 mg/m(2), 30 min intravenous infusion, at days 1, 8, and 15) and capecitabine (830 mg/m(2) orally twice daily for 21 days, repeated every 28 days). Sequential chemoimmunotherapy included two cycles of combination chemotherapy, then an intradermal lower abdominal injection of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF; 75 μg) and GV1001 (0·56 mg; days 1, 3, and 5, once on weeks 2-4, and six monthly thereafter). Concurrent chemoimmunotherapy included giving GV1001 from the start of chemotherapy with GM-CSF as an adjuvant. The primary endpoint was overall survival; analysis was by intention to treat. This study is registered as an International Standard Randomised Controlled Trial, number ISRCTN4382138. FINDINGS The first patient was randomly assigned to treatment on March 29, 2007, and the trial was terminated on March 27, 2011. Of 1572 patients screened, 1062 were randomly assigned to treatment (358 patients were allocated to the chemotherapy group, 350 to the sequential chemoimmunotherapy group, and 354 to the concurrent chemoimmunotherapy group). We recorded 772 deaths; the 290 patients still alive were followed up for a median of 6·0 months (IQR 2·4-12·2). Median overall survival was not significantly different in the chemotherapy group than in the sequential chemoimmunotherapy group (7·9 months [95% CI 7·1-8·8] vs 6·9 months [6·4-7·6]; hazard ratio [HR] 1·19, 98·25% CI 0·97-1·48, p=0·05), or in the concurrent chemoimmunotherapy group (8·4 months [95% CI 7·3-9·7], HR 1·05, 98·25% CI 0·85-1·29, p=0·64; overall log-rank of χ(2)2df=4·3; p=0·11). The commonest grade 3-4 toxic effects were neutropenia (68 [19%] patients in the chemotherapy group, 58 [17%] patients in the sequential chemoimmunotherapy group, and 79 [22%] patients in the concurrent chemoimmunotherapy group; fatigue (27 [8%] in the chemotherapy group, 35 [10%] in the sequential chemoimmunotherapy group, and 44 [12%] in the concurrent chemoimmunotherapy group); and pain (34 [9%] patients in the chemotherapy group, 39 [11%] in the sequential chemoimmunotherapy group, and 41 [12%] in the concurrent chemoimmunotherapy group). INTERPRETATION Adding GV1001 vaccination to chemotherapy did not improve overall survival. New strategies to enhance the immune response effect of telomerase vaccination during chemotherapy are required for clinical efficacy. FUNDING Cancer Research UK and KAEL-GemVax.

Abstract
Trials of new oncology treatments often involve a crossover element in their design that allows patients receiving the control treatment to crossover to receive the experimental treatment at disease progression or when sufficient evidence about the efficacy of the new treatment is achieved. Crossover leads to contamination of the initial randomized groups due to a mixing of the effects of the control and experimental treatments in the reference group. This is further complicated by the fact that crossover is often a very selective process whereby patients who switch treatment have a different prognosis than those who do not. Standard statistical techniques, including those that attempt to account for the treatment switch, cannot fully adjust for the bias introduced by crossover. Specialized methods such as rank-preserving structural failure time (RPSFT) models and inverse probability of censoring weighted (IPCW) analyses are designed to deal with selective treatment switching and have been increasingly applied to adjust for crossover. We provide an overview of the crossover problem and highlight circumstances under which it is likely to cause bias. We then describe the RPSFT and IPCW methods and explain how these methods adjust for the bias, highlighting the assumptions invoked in the process. Our aim is to facilitate understanding of these complex methods using a case study to support explanations. We also discuss the implications of crossover adjustment on cost-effectiveness results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery for colorectal liver metastases results in an overall survival of about 40% at 5 years. Progression-free survival is increased with the addition of oxaliplatin and fluorouracil chemotherapy. The addition of cetuximab to these chemotherapy regimens results in an overall survival advantage in patients with advanced disease who have the KRAS exon 2 wild-type tumour genotype. We aimed to assess the benefit of addition of cetuximab to standard chemotherapy in patients with resectable colorectal liver metastasis. METHODS Patients with KRAS exon 2 wild-type resectable or suboptimally resectable colorectal liver metastases were randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive chemotherapy with or without cetuximab before and after liver resection. Randomisation was done using minimisation with factors of surgical centre, poor prognostic tumour (one or more of: ≥ 4 metastases, N2 disease, or poor differentiation of primary tumour), and previous adjuvant treatment with oxaliplatin. Chemotherapy consisted of oxaliplatin 85 mg/m(2) intravenously over 2 h and fluorouracil bolus 400 mg/m(2) intravenously over 5 min, followed by a 46 h infusion of fluorouracil 2400 mg/m(2) repeated every 2 weeks (regimen one) or oxaliplatin 130 mg/m(2) intravenously over 2 h and oral capecitabine 1000 mg/m(2) twice daily on days 1-14 repeated every 3 weeks (regimen two). Patients who had received adjuvant oxaliplatin could receive irinotecan 180 mg/m(2) intravenously over 30 min with fluorouracil instead of oxaliplatin (regimen three). Cetuximab was given as an intravenous dose of 500 mg/m(2) every 2 weeks with regimen one and three or a loading dose of 400 mg/m(2) followed by a weekly infusion of 250 mg/m(2) with regimen two. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival. This is an interim analysis, up to Nov 1, 2012, when the trial was closed, having met protocol-defined futility criteria. This trial is registered, ISRCTN22944367. FINDINGS 128 KRAS exon 2 wild-type patients were randomised to chemotherapy alone and 129 to chemotherapy with cetuximab between Feb 26, 2007, and Nov 1, 2012. 117 patients in the chemotherapy alone group and 119 in the chemotherapy plus cetuximab group were included in the primary analysis. The median follow-up was 21.1 months (95% CI 12.6-33.8) in the chemotherapy alone group and 19.8 months (12.2-28.7) in the chemotherapy plus cetuximab group. With an overall median follow-up of 20.7 months (95% CI 17.9-25.6) and 123 (58%) of 212 required events observed, progression-free survival was significantly shorter in the chemotherapy plus cetuximab group than in the chemotherapy alone group (14.1 months [95% CI 11.8-15.9] vs 20.5 months [95% CI 16.8-26.7], hazard ratio 1.48, 95% CI 1.04-2.12, p=0.030). The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse events were low neutrophil count (15 [11%] preoperatively in the chemotherapy alone group vs six [4%] in the chemotherapy plus cetuximab group; four [4%] vs eight [8%] postoperatively), embolic events (six [4%] vs eight [6%] preoperatively; two [2%] vs three [3%] postoperatively), peripheral neuropathy (six [4%] vs one [1%] preoperatively; two [2%] vs four [4%] postoperatively), nausea or vomiting (four [3%] vs six [4%] preoperatively; four [4%] vs two [2%] postoperatively), and skin rash (two [1%] vs 21 [15%] preoperatively; 0 vs eight [8%] postoperatively). There were three deaths in the chemotherapy plus cetuximab group (one interstitial lung disease and pulmonary embolism, one bronchopneumonia, and one pulmonary embolism) and one in the chemotherapy alone group (heart failure) that might have been treatment related. INTERPRETATION Addition of cetuximab to chemotherapy and surgery for operable colorectal liver metastases in KRAS exon 2 wild-type patients results in shorter progression-free survival. Translational investigations to explore the molecular basis for this unexpected interaction are needed but at present the use of cetuximab in this setting cannot be recommended.
