Abstract
OBJECTIVE The goal was to characterize short-term kidney status and describe variation in early care utilization in a multicenter cohort of patients with childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE) and nephritis. METHODS We analyzed previously collected prospective data from North American patients with cSLE with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry from March 2017 through December 2019. We determined the proportion of patients with abnormal kidney status at the most recent registry visit and applied generalized linear mixed models to identify associated factors. We also calculated frequency of medication use, both during induction and ever recorded. RESULTS We identified 222 patients with kidney biopsy-proven nephritis, with 64% class III/IV nephritis on initial biopsy. At the most recent registry visit at median (interquartile range) of 17 (8-29) months from initial kidney biopsy, 58 of 106 patients (55%) with available data had abnormal kidney status. This finding was associated with male sex (odds ratio [OR] 3.88, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.21-12.46) and age at cSLE diagnosis (OR 1.23, 95% CI 1.01-1.49). Patients with class IV nephritis were more likely than class III to receive cyclophosphamide and rituximab during induction. There was substantial variation in mycophenolate, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab ever use patterns across rheumatology centers. CONCLUSION In this cohort with predominately class III/IV nephritis, male sex and older age at cSLE diagnosis were associated with abnormal short-term kidney status. We also observed substantial variation in contemporary medication use for pediatric lupus nephritis between pediatric rheumatology centers. Additional studies are needed to better understand the impact of this variation on long-term kidney outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) who achieve a drug free remission often experience a flare of their disease requiring either intraarticular steroids (IAS) or systemic treatment with disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs). IAS offer an opportunity to recapture disease control and avoid exposure to side effects from systemic immunosuppression. We examined a cohort of patients treated with IAS after drug free remission and report the probability of restarting systemic treatment within 12 months. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of patients from the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Registry who received IAS for a flare after a period of drug free remission. Historical factors and clinical characteristics and of the patients including data obtained at the time of treatment were analyzed. RESULTS We identified 46 patients who met the inclusion criteria. Of those with follow up data available 49% had restarted systemic treatment 6 months after IAS injection and 70% had restarted systemic treatment at 12 months. The proportion of patients with prior use of a biologic DMARD was the only factor that differed between patients who restarted systemic treatment those who did not, both at 6 months (79% vs 35%, p < 0.01) and 12 months (81% vs 33%, p < 0.05). CONCLUSION While IAS are an option for all patients who flare after drug free remission, it may not prevent the need to restart systemic treatment. Prior use of a biologic DMARD may predict lack of success for IAS. Those who previously received methotrexate only, on the other hand, are excellent candidates for IAS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Social determinants of health (SDH) greatly influence outcomes during the first year of treatment in rheumatoid arthritis, a disease similar to polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA). We investigated the correlation of community poverty level and other SDH with the persistence of moderate to severe disease activity and functional disability over the first year of treatment in pJIA patients enrolled in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance Registry. METHODS In this cohort study, unadjusted and adjusted generalized linear mixed effects models analyzed the effect of community poverty and other SDH on disease activity, using the clinical Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score-10, and disability, using the Child Health Assessment Questionnaire, measured at baseline, 6, and 12 months. RESULTS One thousand six hundred eighty-four patients were identified. High community poverty (≥20% living below the federal poverty level) was associated with increased odds of functional disability (OR 1.82, 95% CI 1.28-2.60) but was not statistically significant after adjustment (aOR 1.23, 95% CI 0.81-1.86) and was not associated with increased disease activity. Non-white race/ethnicity was associated with higher disease activity (aOR 2.48, 95% CI: 1.41-4.36). Lower self-reported household income was associated with higher disease activity and persistent functional disability. Public insurance (aOR 1.56, 95% CI 1.06-2.29) and low family education (aOR 1.89, 95% CI 1.14-3.12) was associated with persistent functional disability. CONCLUSION High community poverty level was associated with persistent functional disability in unadjusted analysis but not with persistent moderate to high disease activity. Race/ethnicity and other SDH were associated with persistent disease activity and functional disability.

Abstract
IntroductionPrevious studies about young people in conflict with the law (YPCL) have a tendency to focus on the risk factors that contribute to trigger antisocial criminal behavior. Instead, this study aims to research the social determinants that encourage the criminal desistance: understood as a gradual process taking place in the periods of absence of crime and desire to abandon the criminal activity.ObjectivesFrom a sample that is made up of 100 YPCL, the main objective is to deduce the social determinants, which encourage the criminal desistance in YPCL, it means young people who commit crimes.AimsTo infer the social determinants (circumstances in which people are born, grow, live, including the health system) which foster the desistance in YPCL.MethodsThe results of a sample of 100 YPCL were assessed with three profiles as follows: I: DSM-IV personality disorders (PD T-Scores). II: swap personality syndromes (Q-Factor T-Scores). III. factor T-scores.ResultsThis research shows the prevalence of the following social determinants associated with the desistance: (1) integrated families. (2) Educational and cultural opportunities (3) academic progress. (4) Healthy relationships that support and help. (5) Stable living arrangements (6) social conditions preserved the use of psychoactive substances and alcohol abuse.ConclusionsIt is possible to identify the prevalence of social determinants which encourage the desistance in YPCL. Those allows them to transform their risk path in another that shows a positive development, associated with individual transformations that take them away from the criminal life and reintegrate into the community.

Abstract
SummaryTwenty three patients belonging to 18 different pedigrees of Haemophilia B were studied with regard to ox-brain prothrombin time and its correlation to factor VII.Eleven among them were B-negative (no detectable factor IX antigen), five were B-reduced (factor IX antigen detectable but below the normal values) and seven were B-positive (normal levels of factor IX antigen).Ox-brain prothrombin time was found prolonged (≥ x̄ + 2.5 SD:99% confidence limits) in nine patients. Factor VII Activity (VII: C) was found reduced in 1/11 B-negative, in 2/5 B-reduced and in 4/7 B-positive patients. Factor VII Antigen (VII: Ag) was found normal in all but one patient.The ratio VII:C/VII:Ag was abnormal in eight patients independently from the variant of Haemophilia B. The underlying defect which causes the prolongation of Ox-brain prothrombin time due to factor VII: C mild deficiency is heterogeneous. Age, a mild Vitamin K deficiency, the presence of an inhibitor of Factor VII activation and other unknown causes, may be responsible for this pattern.

Abstract
Biopolymers are increasingly employed for neuroscience applications as scaffolds to drive and promote neural regrowth, thanks to their ability to mediate the upload and subsequent release of active molecules and drugs. Synthetic degradable polymers are characterized by different responses ranging from tunable distension or shrinkage to total dissolution, depending on the function they are designed for. In this paper we present a biocompatible microfabricated poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) scaffold for primary neuron growth and maturation that has been optimized for the in vitro controlled release of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). We demonstrate that the designed morphology confers to these devices an enhanced drug delivery capability with respect to monolithic unstructured supports. After incubation with BDNF, micropillared PCL devices progressively release the neurotrophin over 21 days in vitro. Moreover, the bioactivity of released BDNF is confirmed using primary neuronal cultures, where it mediates a consistent activation of BDNF signaling cascades, increased synaptic density, and neuronal survival. These results provide the proof-of-principle on the fabrication process of micropatterned PCL devices, which represent a promising therapeutic option to enhance neuronal regeneration after lesion and for neural tissue engineering and prosthetics.

Abstract
Homeostatic plasticity is a regulatory feedback response in which either synaptic strength or intrinsic excitability can be adjusted up or down to offset sustained changes in neuronal activity. Although a growing number of evidences constantly provide new insights into these two apparently distinct homeostatic processes, a unified molecular model remains unknown. We recently demonstrated that REST is a transcriptional repressor critical for the downscaling of intrinsic excitability in cultured hippocampal neurons subjected to prolonged elevation of electrical activity. Here, we report that, in the same experimental system, REST also participates in synaptic homeostasis by reducing the strength of excitatory synapses by specifically acting at the presynaptic level. Indeed, chronic hyperactivity triggers a REST-dependent decrease of the size of synaptic vesicle pools through the transcriptional and translational repression of specific presynaptic REST target genes. Together with our previous report, the data identify REST as a fundamental molecular player for neuronal homeostasis able to downscale simultaneously both intrinsic excitability and presynaptic efficiency in response to elevated neuronal activity. This experimental evidence adds new insights to the complex activity-dependent transcriptional regulation of the homeostatic plasticity processes mediated by REST.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Safety and efficacy of gemcitabine plus docetaxel (GD) and capecitabine plus docetaxel (CD) were compared in patients with metastatic breast cancer, where the alternate crossover monotherapy (GD→C or CD→G) was predetermined. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were randomly assigned to 3-week cycles of either gemcitabine 1000 mg/m(2) on days 1 and 8 plus docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) on day 1 or capecitabine 1000 mg/m(2) twice daily on days 1-14 plus docetaxel 75 mg/m(2) day 1. Upon progression, patients received crossover monotherapy. Primary end point was time to progression (TtP). Secondary end points evaluated overall response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS Despite over-accrual of 475 patients, the trial matured with only 324 of 385 planned TtP events due to patient discontinuations. Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 status was not captured in this study. More CD patients (28%) discontinued due to AEs than GD patients (18.0%, P = 0.009). TtP [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.101, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.885-1.370, P = 0.387] and OS (HR = 1.031, 95% CI 0.830-1.280, P = 0.785) were not significantly different comparing GD and CD. ORR was not statistically different (P = 0.239) comparing GD (72 of 207, 34.8%) and CD (78 of 191, 40.8%). TtP, OS, and ORR were not significantly different comparing crossover groups. GD caused greater fatigue, hepatotoxicity, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia but not febrile neutropenia; CD caused more hand-foot syndrome, gastrointestinal toxicity, and mucositis. CONCLUSIONS GD and CD produced similar efficacy and toxicity profiles consistent with prior clinical experience.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: We have previously reported (Loesch, et al. Clin Breast Cancer, 2008) the efficacy and safety of gemcitabine and carboplatin with or without trastuzumab in patients with metastatic breast cancer. We now report time-to-progression (TTP) and overall survival (OS) after up to 3.5 years of extended follow-up.Patients and Methods: Patients were stratified into 3 groups at registration; Group 1: HER2 positive (+) regardless of prior taxane; Group 2: HER2 negative (–) and taxane naïve or remote (no taxanes within the past 2 years); and Group 3: HER2– and taxane pretreated. Women ≥18 years of age, with ECOG performance status 0-2, with RECIST-defined measurable disease, and either HER2– or HER2+ (3+ score) by immunohistochemistry or fluorescence in situ hybridization were enrolled. Treatment: Day 1 gemcitabine 1500 mg/m2 over 30 minutes followed by carboplatin AUC=2.5 repeated every 14 days up to Cycle 9. Group 1 also received trastuzumab 8 mg/kg in Cycle 1 followed by 4 mg/kg in Cycles 2-9, followed thereafter by 6 mg/kg every 21 days until progression or intolerable toxicity.Results: A total of 150 patients were registered (50, 51, and 49 in Groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively). Median follow-up for surviving patients, calculated from registration, was 31.3, 27.1, and 25.4 months, respectively. Median TTP (calculated as progression-free survival), was 7.2, 5.6, and 4.6 months, respectively. Median OS (range) has not been reached for Group 1 (range, 1.2-46.9); for Group 2 was 21.7 months (<1-44.3); and, for Group 3 was 11.9 months (<1-33.6). At 24-months, survival rates were 73.3%, 41.4%, and 20.5%, respectively; at 36-months, survival rates were 60.6%, 25.7%, and ≤8.3%, respectively. For Group 1 only, the remaining 3 responding patients were followed for 3.5 years, at which time they were relapse-free.Conclusions: Gemcitabine plus carboplatin with or without trastuzumab has been shown to be highly active in metastatic breast cancer. HER2+ patients receiving trastuzumab had the highest TTP and survival rates of all treatment groups. As expected, taxane-pretreated patients had shortened TTP and decreased OS rates compared to taxane-naïve patients.Research support was provided, in part, by Lilly USA, LLC; Indianapolis, IN.

Abstract
CRA5507 Background: Cervical cancer is the second-most common cancer among women worldwide, in both incidence and mortality. Current standard therapy for locally advanced disease consists of concurrent Cis and external-beam radiation (XRT). This multicenter, open-label, randomized, phase III trial aimed to improve outcomes, capitalizing on the synergistic activity of Gem, Cis, XRT, and the potential value of adjuvant therapy. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) with bulky stage IIB to IVA, 18–70 years of age, chemotherapy- and radiotherapy-naive, with a Karnofsky Performance Status score ≥70, were randomized to Arm A: Cis 40 mg/m2 followed by Gem 125 mg/m2 weekly × 6 doses with concurrent XRT (50.4 Gy: in 28 fractions: 1.8 Gy/day, 5 days/week), followed by brachytherapy (brachy) (30–35 Gy) and then 2 adjuvant 21-day cycles of Gem (1,000 mg/m2 on Days 1 and 8) plus Cis (50 mg/m2 on Day 1); or Arm B: Cis 40 mg/m2 weekly × 6 doses with concurrent XRT followed by brachy, given as in Arm A. Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) at 3 years, compared between arms using Kaplan-Meier methods and a Z-statistic. Results: 515 pts were enrolled between 5/02 and 3/04 (259 pts Arm A, 256 pts Arm B). Median age was 46 years; stage IIB/IIIB/IVA in 61/37/2% of pts. Compliance in the concurrent and brachy phase was >90% for both arms; adjuvant cycles were completed by >75% of pts in Arm A. PFS at 3 years was 74% in Arm A compared to 65% in Arm B, resulting in a statistically significant improvement (p = 0.029). Overall survival (log-rank p = 0.0224) and time to progressive disease (log-rank p = 0.0008) were also significantly improved. Significantly more pts in Arm A experienced grade 3/4 toxicities (86.5%), compared to pts in Arm B (46.3%; Fisher's p < 0.001). In Arm A, 2 pts died due to causes probably related to treatment compared to 0 pts in Arm B. Conclusions: This novel regimen of concurrent Gem plus Cis and XRT followed by brachy and adjuvant Gem plus Cis significantly improved outcomes in pts with locally advanced carcinoma of the cervix, at the expense of increased but acceptable toxicity, compared to the current standard of care.

Methods: Sixty one patients with clinical stage II and III (T3N0) muscle invasive bladder carcinoma were treated between February 1991 and December 2007. Forty four received sequential treatment (chemo followed by radiation) and seventeen concurrent treatments. Chemotherapy was platinum based in all patients, fifth teen with Carboplatin. All underwent maximal citoreduction with TUR .First 20 patients received pelvic radiation (1991–1993),while the other 41 three-dimensional radiotherapy (median dose 60 Gy). Male/female 55/6: median age 64 (range 46–80); transitional type 58 and mixed-epidermoid 6. Grade II: 3, grade III: 48 and grade IV: 10. Clinical stage II:50 and III:11. Mean follow up 63 months. Results: The 5 year overall survival rate was 57%. Forty patients remained NED, with eight deaths due to second primary or cardiovascular disease. Twenty pts were treated more than 5 years ago, 16(80%) are alive, 14 NED,2 pts relapsed after 5 years. Of all predictive factors analyzed only clinical stage reached statistical significance for relapse (p=0.0029), and borderline significance for overall survival (p=0.064). Toxicity: Grade 3–4: 7%, with 3% of febrile neutropenia. No patient required cystectomy because of bladder morbidity. Conclusions: Trimodality treatment in selected patients offers rates of event free survival and overall survival similar to those reported for surgery with acceptable toxicity and no treatment related cystectomy. Relapse after 5 year is very uncommon. In this small group of patient results were similar with concurrent and sequential treatment. At present we treat our patients with concurrent chemoradiation with tridimensional technique. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
8045 Background: East Asian ethnicity is a recognized favorable prognostic factor in the treatment of NSCLC in trials with either chemotherapy or EGFR tyrosine-kinase inhibitors (TKIs). In a global phase III study (Scagliotti JCO 2008), superior efficacy of PC was shown for pts with nonsquamous NSCLC, while Asian ethnicity was prognostic in the overall population. The purpose of this analysis is to describe the patient and disease characteristics of the East Asian pts enrolled in this study and assess efficacy according to histology and smoking history. Methods: This retrospective analysis of a large phase III study included only patients enrolled from Korea and Taiwan. For survival and progression-free survival (PFS), Cox-adjusted analyses were used to estimate the hazard ratio and 95% CI, while medians were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Results for PFS and response rate showed trends similar to overall survival in East Asian pts, favoring PC therapy in nonsquamous pts. The use of post-discontinuation targeted therapies such as EGFR-TKIs was similar between treatment arms in the overall population and in nonsquamous pts. In East Asian pts, EGFR-TKI use was slightly higher in the GC arm, in both the overall population and in nonsquamous pts. In a further subgroup analysis defined by smoking status, East Asian nonsquamous pts treated with PC had longer survival (not statistically significant). Conclusions: Pt and disease characteristics between the East Asian subgroup and the overall population were similar, with notable differences in the percentage of pts with no smoking history and the greater use of EGFR-TKIs as post-discontinuation therapy. This analysis shows the improved efficacy outcomes for East Asian nonsquamous pts treated with PC is consistent with the previously observed treatment effect of PC on nonsquamous NSCLC.

Abstract
5524 Background: Results of recent randomized clinical trials (RCTs) support the use of combination chemotherapy in the management of ROC, more specifically in the platinum-sensitive setting. We performed a literature-based meta-analysis of RCTs comparing combination versus monotherapy in previously treated ROC to validate or refute conclusions of individual trials. Methods: This was a systematic review of the available literature identified from multiple databases using the terms ‘combination chemotherapy‘, ‘advanced ovarian cancer‘ and ‘randomized trial‘. Data were pooled for Meta-analysis using the Mantel Hanzsel Peto model. Event-based relative odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were derived. Heterogeneity test was applied. Results: We identified and included 8 RCTs trials fulfilling the selection criteria, 6 phase III and 2 Phase II. Seven published trials and one ASCO poster presentation. One study was conducted exclusively in patients with platinum-resistant disease, five in platinum-sensitive disease only, and 2 in a mixed population. A total of 2312 patients were included in those 8 trials. Relevant endpoints of interest for this meta-analysis were: Overall Response Rate (ORR), Progression-Free Survival (PFS) at 2 years and Overall Survival (OS) at 2 years. Results are summarized in the table : Conclusion: Acknowledging all the drawbacks related to literature-based meta-analyses, combination chemotherapy seems to improve ORR, PFS and OS when compared to monotherapy in the mangement of ROC.

Abstract
14055 Background: P is active in multiple ST types, and preclinical data support P synergy with G. Methods: Eligible advanced ST patients (pts) with no prior P or G, no prior radiotherapy (RT) to ≡ 25% of the marrow, Karnofsky Performance Status ≡ 70%, and adequate organ function enrolled in cohorts (C) of 3, expanding to 6 if dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) occurred. P was given at 300 (C1), 400 (C2), 500 (C3) or 600 (C4) mg/m2 followed by G at 1500 mg/m2 q 14 days (d) without granulocyte-colony stimulating factor. Vitamin B12 and folate supplementation were given. Response was assessed by RECIST Results: 29 pts (median number prior regimens 2, range 1–5; 66% with prior RT) enrolled and are evaluable for safety; 23 are evaluable for response. There were no DLTs in C1. One pt in C2 was replaced after 1 cycle for progression of disease (PD). Among the next 6 pts, 2 had DLTs (1 G3 thrombocytopenia [TP] treatment delay; 1 neutropenic fever [NF]). C2-R (C2, Revised) re-opened after amendment permitting ≡ 2 prior cytotoxic regimens, no history of brain metastases/brain RT. C2-R enrolled 8 pts with 1 DLT (G3 TP with treatment delay) and 2 pts replaced (1 early PD, 1 no documented duration of neutropenia [NP]). C3 had 0/3 pts with DLT. C4 had 2/3 pts with DLTs (1 G4 hyponatremia; 1 herpes zoster-related treatment delay). C3 has been expanded to 5 of 6 planned patients, one with DLT (NF, G4 TP). Toxicities per cycle (n= 189 cycles, 29 patients): include NP-G3 (23%), G4 (14%); TP-G3 (2%); WBC-G3 (30%), G4 (4%); lymphopenia-G3 (11%), Hgb-G3 (4%); G3-NF (1%). 3/23 (13%) had objective partial responses (2 head and neck squamous cell cancer, HNSCC; 1 nasopharyngeal cancer, NPC), 4 stable disease (SD), 16 PD. (1 pt, no measurable disease at baseline; 5 pts, too early for response assesment). Conclusions: G + P is well-tolerated, and yields objective responses in HNSCC and NPC. C3 (P 500 mg/m2 + G 1500 mg/m2 q 14 d) was the phase II recommended dose in another phase I study of this regimen (Melemed ASCO 2005). Our final results will be available for ASCO 2007.

Abstract
17037 Background: Previous studies have indicated that, in combination with cisplatin (cis), fixed dose rate gemcitabine (gem) may be more efficacious than standard infusion gem. This open-label, randomized, multicenter Phase II study (B9E-LA-S350) was aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of these regimens as treatment for advanced NSCLC in Latin American patients (pts). Methods: Major eligibility criteria included histologic/cytologic diagnosis of stage IIIB/IV NSCLC not amenable to curative surgery; and at least one measurable lesion. Pts were randomized to receive up to 6 cycles of treatment with cis 75 mg/m2 on Day 1 plus either gem 1000 mg/m2 over 30 min on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle (standard arm) or gem 1000 mg/m2 at a fixed dose rate of 10 mg/ m2/min on Days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle (FDR arm). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR; assessed by RECIST criteria) and secondary endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of tumor response (TR), and toxicity. Results: The results from this interim analysis assessed all objectives. Sixty-four pts were randomized to treatment (N = 33 standard arm; N = 31 FDR arm): 22 females; mean age 60 ± 9 yrs; 20% stage IIIB, 80% stage IV. In the standard arm, 9 (27%) pts responded (CR or PR) compared to 6 (20%) pts in the FDR arm (Odds ratio: 0.67, 95% CI 0.21–2.2, p = .56). As shown in the table below, there were no statistically significant differences in median ORR, OS, PFS, TR times, and Grade (G) 3/4 toxicities. Conclusions: The standard and FDR gem and cis treatment regimens produced similar results for both efficacy and toxicity in this patient population. This trial does not support the use of a FDR administration of gem in Latin American pts with NSCLC. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Abstract
5083 Background: High expression of folate receptors on ovarian cancer cells may provide excellent targets for P. Preclinical data support synergism with G. Optimal doses of q 14 day P+G with vitamin support in pre-treated OC pts are not known. We sought to determine the maximally tolerated doses (MTD) and to assess for toxicity and activity in relapsed OC. Methods: Pts with relapsed OC, no prior P or G, KPS ≥ 70, and adequate organ function were eligible. Pts were enrolled in cohorts of 3, expanding to 6 if dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was observed during the first 4 cycles. Pts received P at 300 (cohort 1) or 400 (cohort 2) or 500 (cohort 3) or 600 (cohort 4) mg/m2 followed by G 1500 mg/m2 q 14 d without GCSF. B12 and folic acid were given 1 week prior and continued throughout. DLT was defined as grade (gr) 4 neutropenia (ANC) lasting >7d or neutropenic fever (NF); gr 4 thrombocytopenia or gr 3 with bleeding; ≥gr 3 nonhematologic toxicity, except ALT, AST, alopecia, fatigue; treatment delay ≥1 week due to any unresolved toxicity. Response assessed by RECIST. Results: 16 pts (median age 55, range 43–75; median number prior cytotoxic regimens 2, range 1–4) have enrolled in 4 cohorts. 15 are evaluable for response (1 treated after resection of recurrence); 13 of these15 had a platinum-free interval <6 months. 1 pt in cohort 1 had global deterioration during cycle 1 and was replaced, with best response counted as progressive disease (PD). 1 pt in cohort 3 had dose delay ≥1 week, meeting DLT criteria. Cohort 3 was expanded to 6 pts with no further DLT. 3 pts enrolled in cohort 4 with no DLTs observed. Toxicities per cycle (n = 108): gr 3 ANC 31%; gr 4 ANC 27%; gr 3 dehydration 0.9%; gr 3 platelets 0.9%; 0 pts had NF. Median # cycles/pt was 6, range 1–16, median cycle length 14 d. Objective response was observed in 27% (4/15 pts: 4 PR; 7 SD; 4 PD). All 4 responses were among pts with platinum resistant disease. >50% decrease in CA125 for more than two measurements was observed in 9/15 (60%) pts with evaluable CA125s. Median time to progression is 15 wks (95% confidence interval 10–32 wks). Conclusions: MTD is not yet reached. P 500 mg/m2 + G 1500 mg/m2 with vitamin supplementation is safe in pts with previously treated OC. 27% of patients with platinum-resistant disease had objective responses. [Table: see text]

Abstract
10591 Background: Phase III studies have demonstrated that the addition of T to chemo is associated with higher response rates (RR), improved time-to-progression (TTP) and improved overall survival in pts with metastatic HER2+ tumors. The greatest benefit from T-based therapy is found in women with pronounced HER2 overexpression (FISH+ or IHC 3+). Preclinical models suggest that Gem+T appear to be additive or synergistic. The present study was designed to determine overall RR (primary endpoint), TTP, OS and the toxicity profile of the combination of Gem+T as first-line therapy for MBC pts. Methods: Pts with measurable HER2-overexpressing (IHC 3+ or FISH+) MBC, no prior chemo in the metastatic setting (adjuvant was allowed), adequate end-organ function and PS 0–2, received Gem 1,250 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 and T on day 1 (8 mg/kg over 90 min on cycle 1, then 6 mg/kg over 30 min on subsequent cycles) of a 21-day cycle, until progressive disease or undue toxicity. A Simon’s optimal two-stage design was used with a total sample size of 66 (25 patients treated in the first stage and 41 additional patients in the second stage). Results: Sixty-six patients have been treated and results are available for sixty-four patients. Median age: 53 years (range 34–83); Race: Caucasian/Other 88%/12%. ER status positive/negative: 53%/47%. HER2 status IHC 3+/FISH+: 58/20 pts.; ECOG PS 0/1/2: 66%/30%/3%; Prior adjuvant therapy: Chemo 39 pts (prior anthra 31, prior taxane 21), Hormonal 32 pts (6 adj, 18 met, 8 both). Total number of cycles = 396; median = 6 (range 1–21). Toxicity was generally modest. Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 11 pts (17%)/7 pts (11%); thrombocytopenia 3pts (5%)/1pt (2%), anemia 3 pts (4.7%)/ 0 pts, and 2 pts with grade 4 transaminase elevation, grade 3 elevated ALT 6 pts (9.4%); no other grade 4 toxicities were recorded. One pt with prior anthra exposure had a grade 2 decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction; no symptomatic cardiac toxicity was recorded. Best Overall RR assessment (N = 64): CR 8 (12.5%), PR 26 (40.6%) for an overall RR of 53.1% (95% CI: 40%-66%). TTP median 6 mo (95% CI: 4.4 -9.7 mo). Survival data not mature at this time. Conclusions: The combination of Gem+T in front-line MBC shows a high response rate with modest toxicity. [Table: see text]

Abstract
10730 Background: Addition of T to chemotherapy (chemo) is assoc. with improved overall survival (OS) in pts with HER2+ tumors. Combination chemo has shown improvements in PFS and OS over single agent in recent phase III studies. Pre-clinical models suggest that the combination of G and D appears to be synergistic and that either agent is also synergistic with T. Objectives: This multi-institutional study was designed to determine overall RR (primary endpoint), TTP, OS and the toxicity profile of the combination of G + D + T as first-line therapy for MBC pts. Design: Pts with measurable HER2-overexpressing (FISH+) MBC, no prior chemo in the metastatic setting, adequate end-organ function and PS 0–2, received Gem 1,000 mg/m2 over 30 min on days 1 and 8 + D 75 mg/m2 day 1 and T on day 1 (8 mg/kg over 90 min on cycle 1, then 6 mg/kg over 30 min on subsequent cycles) of a 21-day cycle, until progressive disease or undue toxicity. Results: 8 pts have been enrolled over a period of 16 months. Median age: 53 years (range 40–74); ER status ±: 5/3 pts; ECOG PS 0 = 3 pts, 1 = 4 pts, 2 = 1 pt; Prior adjuvant therapy: Chemo ± Hormonal 3, Hormonal only 3, T 1. Sites of Disease: All pts had visceral involvement (Lung 4, Liver 5) and 5 pts ≥ 2 sites of metastatic disease. Total number of cycles administered was 52; median per pt. 7 (range 4–10). Median delivered dose intensity for G, D and T was 91%, 92% and 100% respectively. Toxicity was generally manageable. One pt discontinued therapy due to adverse events (grade 3 pneumonitis). Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 27% and 10% of cycles; no grade 3/4 anemia or thrombocytopenia were recorded; Non-Heme toxicities of grade 2/3, included with dyspnea (0/2 pts), emesis (2/1), fatigue (4/1), diarrhea (1/1), dehydration (0/1), constipation (1/0). Complete alopecia was observed in 2 pts. No symptomatic cardiac toxicity was recorded. Best Overall RR assessment (N = 8): CR 3, PR 4, SD 1, PD 0, for an ORR of 7 out of 8 pts or 88% (95% CI: 47%–100%). Only 3 pts have progressed, and no pt has died. Progression-free survival at 1 year is 58%. Conclusion: According to this limited experience, the combination of G + D + T in front-line MBC is well tolerated and active. Study was discontinued due to slow accrual as of Feb 2004. Supported by Eli Lilly & Company. [Table: see text]

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare availability, urban price, and affordability of child/family safety devices between 18 economically diverse countries. DESIGN Descriptive: urban price surveys by local safety organisations or shoppers. SETTING Retail stores and internet vendors. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Prices expressed in US dollars, and affordability measured by hours of factory work needed to buy a child safety seat, a belt-positioning booster seat, a child bicycle helmet, and a smoke alarm. RESULTS Prices of child and family safety devices varied widely between countries but the variation for child safety seats and bicycle helmets did not relate strongly to country income. Safety devices were expensive, often prohibitively so, in lower income countries. Far more hours of factory work were required to earn a child safety device in lower income than middle income, and middle income than higher income, countries. A bicycle helmet, for example, cost 10 hours of factory work in lower income countries but less than an hour in higher income countries. Smoke alarms and booster seats were not available in many lower income countries. CONCLUSIONS Bicycles and two-axle motor vehicles were numerous in lower and middle income countries, but corresponding child safety devices were often unaffordable and sometimes not readily available. The apparent market distortions and their causes merit investigation. Advocacy, social marketing, local device production, lowering of tariffs, and mandatory use legislation might stimulate market growth. Arguably, a moral obligation exists to offer subsidies that give all children a fair chance of surviving to adulthood.

Abstract
3-O-Methylfunicone (OMF) is a secondary metabolite produced by the soil fungus Penicillium pinophilum which has cytostatic properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms by which such properties are exerted, with special reference to any anti-proliferative and apoptotic potential, on HeLa cells. OMF treatment caused about 44% inhibition of cell growth after 24 h, and modifications in the tubulin fibre organization. In addition, a significant increase in p21 mRNA expression and a decrease in cyclin D1 and Cdk4 mRNA expression resulted at the same time. Apoptosis induction was demonstrated by the annexin V assay, cytofluorimetric analysis of the DNA content of the sub-G1 fraction and DNA laddering. Taken together, our data showed that the compound inhibits proliferation of HeLa cells by several mechanisms, such as disruption of tubulin fibres, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis induction. The capacity of the compound to affect the cell cycle and to modulate apoptosis is indicative of a potential for the development of a new agent for cancer chemotherapy.
