Abstract
This work addresses the potential of the red seaweed Gelidium corneum as a source of bioactive ingredients for skin health and wellness in response to the growing awareness regarding the significance of sustainable strategies in developing new nature-based dermocosmetic products. Hydroalcoholic extracts from the dried biomass were subjected to sequential liquid-liquid partitions, affording five different fractions (F1-F5). Their cosmetic potential was assessed through a set of in vitro assays concerning their antioxidant, photoprotective, and healing properties. Additionally, their cytotoxicity in HaCaT cells and their capacity to induce inflammation in RAW 264.7 cells were also evaluated. As a proof-of-concept, O/W emulsions were prepared, and emulsion stability was assessed by optical microscopy, droplet size analysis, centrifugation tests, and rheology analysis. Furthermore, in vivo tests were conducted with the final formulation to assess its antioxidant capacity. At subtoxic concentrations, the most lipophilic fraction has provided photoprotection against UV light-induced photooxidation in HaCaT cells. This was conducted together with the aqueous fraction, which also displayed healing capacities. Regarding the physical and stability assays, the best performance was achieved with the formulation containing 1% aqueous extract, which exhibited water retention and antioxidant properties in the in vivo assay. In summary, Gelidium corneum displayed itself as a potential source of bioactive ingredients with multitarget properties for dermatological use.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study primarily aimed to assess the accuracy of radiographic dental calcification parameters for the identification of specific craniofacial growth stages. METHODS Permanent mandibular canines, premolars, and second molars of 288 patients, from 6 to 15 years old, were analysed on randomly selected panoramic radiographs, and categorised according to two calcification methods. Reproducibility analyses and data derived from panoramic records were correlated with the gold-standard method, as evaluated from lateral cephalometric teleradiographs. Accuracy tests were finally calculated, considering several cutoff points. RESULTS Dental calcification methods showed "strong" to "almost perfect" intra- and inter-examiner reproducibility. Significant, although weak correlations were observed for all parameters. Canine and first premolar calcification stage 8 and second premolar and second molar stage 7 showed higher sensitivity rates for identifying the pubertal growth spurt period, as well as the stage F for these teeth. Canine and first premolar stages 10 and H obtained higher specificity rates for identifying the absence of post-pubertal period. CONCLUSIONS The dental calcification parameters showed adequate reproducibility, in addition to significant correlations with cervical vertebrae stages. Radiographic dental calcification parameters used for the mandibular first premolar obtained high accuracy rates and were recommended for identifying specific craniofacial growth periods.

Abstract
PURPOSE Adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) for 5-10 years is the backbone of the therapeutic strategy in patients with hormone receptor positive (HR+) early breast cancer (BC). However, long-term adherence to adjuvant ET represents a major challenge for most patients. According to prior studies, side effects of adjuvant ET are an important reason for poor adherence. In contrast, better communication and relational bond between patients and healthcare providers (HCPs) may improve adherence. The FOR-AD (Focus on non-adherence) study aimed at better understanding the representation of adjuvant ET by patients and their HCPs, in order to improve the care process. METHODS Three focus groups of premenopausal women (receiving adjuvant ET for variable amount of time) and two focus groups of HCPs (including oncologists, pharmacists, and nurses) were conducted, each including around ten participants. Thematic analyses using a general inductive approach were constructed to report participants' representations. RESULTS Two main themes emerged across groups, and appeared of major importance. Representations on adjuvant ET were often homogenous within each group, but differed between patients and their HCPs. The relationship between both groups was considerably discussed, particularly its importance in facilitating adherence to adjuvant ET. Suggestions on improving the care process were also given, such as systematically including psychologists in follow-up care paths and having a nurse navigator follow patients under treatment with adjuvant ET. CONCLUSION The present qualitative exploration may help buildi future tailored interventions to improve adherence to adjuvant ET, in particular regarding the role of nurse navigators.

Abstract
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Despite the proven benefits on reducing time to recurrence and improving survival, recent studies indicate that only half or less of patients with early stage breast cancer (BC) complete their recommended full-course of adjuvant ET. Findings suggested that adherence therefore remains a challenge for both patients and professionals, with differences in representations that remain poorly understood. The main objective of this study is to investigate BC patient’s perceptions about ET. Secondary objectives are: (1): to capture potential gaps between their perceptions and the representations of their HCP (2): to explore preferences in patients regarding programs aimed to improve adherence to ET. Methods We conducted separately focus groups with patients and HCP to capture a multilevel framework regarding non-adherence. Inclusion criteria for patients’ focus groups were: non metastatic hormone-receptor positive (HR+) BC; ≥18 years old; premenopausal at time of diagnosis; receiving ET for at least 2 months; for HCP criteria were: to be a medical oncologist, radiation oncologist, pharmacist or nurse; with at least 5 years of experience on BC. The discussion schedule was non-directive and included: introduction remarks and three key- questions linked to our objectives as well as follow-up questions to facilitate the discourse. Discussions were audio recorded, anonymized and transcribed verbatim. We used a thematic analysis approach to identify patterns and themes. Results: Twenty-eight patients (median age=45 yrs) and 17 professionals (11 women, median professional experience with BC =9.5 yrs) participated. Major themes emerging among participants are showed in Table 1. Important differences between HCP and patients with BC were analyzed regarding their representations towards adherence and communication.Conclusions: Dissatisfaction concerning ET medical monitoring and communication is shared by patients and professionals. The HCP reported a lack of communication skills to support patients struggling with ET adherence. Strikingly, the major barrier to ET reported by patients is related to the employment and the lack of adaptation to sequelae of ET. This barrier is not reported by professionals and appears a critical challenge to face. The suggestions made by patients during the focus groups offer promising perspectives regarding support programs to improve adherence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Overseas France represents 18 % of French territory and is home to 4 % of its population for whom there is unequal treatment in the field of rare/complex cancer. AIM To report our experience of intercontinental multidisciplinary videoconferencing between the French mainland and Pacific territories. METHODS Every other friday, three centers located in Papeete, Nouméa and Paris-Villejuif connected between 6:30 AM and 8:00 AM GMT to discuss cases of rare/complex cancers. RESULTS Between November 2019 and December 2020, 323 presentations implicating 233 patients involved sarcoma (n=93), digestive pathology (n=60), neuroendocrine tumors (n=35), urology (n=24), gynecology (n=24), neurology (n=16), thyroid pathology (n=14), dermatology (n=14), senology (n=11), hematology (n=11), ENT pathology (n=10), pathology thoracic (n=10) and pediatrics (n=1). Of the 233 patients, 134 (57.5 %) living in New Caledonia and 99 (42.5 %) in French Polynesia, 117 (50.5 %) had metastatic disease. 39 patients (16.7 %) were transferred to French mainland (EVASAN), for surgery (n=25), vectorized radiotherapy (n=7), biopsy (n=5), chemotherapy (n=1) or inclusion in a clinical trial (n=1). 195 patients (83.7 %) were treated at home, 15 (6.4 %) are still awaiting a decision and 4 (1.7 %) lost to follow-up. CONCLUSION The use of videoconferencing to discuss rare/complex cancer cases was effective in guaranteeing French overseas population access to innovative therapies and clinical trials, limiting the need for intercontinental transfer to 16.7 %.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study reports the efficacy and safety of local treatment of metastases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), with a curative intent. METHODS We retrospectively included patients with histologically proven PDAC, who underwent a local treatment for metastases between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2017, from 11 French hospitals. Complications of local treatment were reported. Univariate Cox models were performed to identify prognosis factors associated with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS We included 52 patients treated for 68 metastases; 33 (64%) of whom had metachronous metastases. Metastatic sites treated were: 39 (57%) hepatic, 18 (27%) pulmonary and 11 (16%) others. Metastases treatments were: 45 (66%) surgery, 9 (13%) radiofrequency and 14 (21%) other procedures. The rates of severe complications and mortality were respectively 10% and 4%. The median OS and DFS after local treatment were 36.5 months and 12.7 months, respectively. Prognosis factors associated with a shorter OS were: liver metastases when compared with lung metastases (HR 4.04; 95%CI: 1.18-13.81), N2 status of primary pancreatic tumor when compared to N0-N1 (HR 9.43; 95%CI: 2.44-36.36) and synchronous metastases when compared to metachronous metastases (HR 2.34; 95%CI: 1.05-5.23). N2 status of primary pancreatic tumor was associated with a shorter DFS when compared to N0-N1 (HR 2.82; 95%CI: 1.05-7.58). CONCLUSION In this series of highly selected patients, local treatment of metastases from PDAC is associated with prolonged survival. The rate of severe complications was low. Factors associated with shorter OS were liver metastases, N2 status and synchronous metastases.

Abstract
Abstract
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles and nanostructured thin films were simultaneously synthesized using a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The synthesis formed very fine particles, appearing as nanospheres in the 11 nm size range. As for the nanostructured films, they have displayed similar structural characteristics to the nanoparticles, with thickness of 130 nm. These films covered uniformly and homogenously the Whatman paper, while maintaining its flexibility. The materials processed had their photocatalytic activity assessed from rhodamine B degradation under solar radiation (91% degradation after 40 min for the powder material and 68% after 6 h for the nanostructured thin films). Reusability experiments were also carried out, revealing superior performance concerning the Degussa P25, the most common photocatalyst used. The results of the present work can be thought as an option for the existing photocatalysts activated under solar light, namely for water purification, as it simultaneously produces enhanced photocatalytic powders and photocatalytic papers fully disposable and that can be easily recycled.

Abstract
PURPOSE To report our experience of intercontinental multidisciplinary oncology videoconferencing between the French mainland and South Pacific to discuss rare and/or complex cancer cases. METHODS On the first and third Friday of each month, all participants connected between 6:30 am and 8:00 am GMT to discuss using a web conference service. RESULTS Between November 2019 and April 2020, 99 cases concerning 78 patients were discussed. Oncology subspecialties required were sarcoma (n = 36), digestive (n = 29), dermatology (n = 5), gynecology (n = 5), breast (n = 5), urology (n = 5), hematology (n = 5), ENT (n = 3), thoracic (n = 3), thyroid (n = 2), and pediatric (n = 1). Median patient age was 58 years, 41 were female (53%), 37 were male (47%), and 43 had a metastatic disease (55%). Following discussion, 16 patients (21%) were transferred to the French mainland. Reasons for transfer were requirement for complex surgery (n = 11) and need for specialized diagnostic biopsy (n = 5). Fifty-six patients were treated locally, with systemic chemotherapy (n = 36), surveillance (n = 8), surgery (n = 8), radiotherapy (n = 3), or endoscopy (n = 1). Direct benefits for patients treated in their local facility included strategy changes (surveillance or surgery contraindication, n = 9), targeted therapy decision (n = 14), immunotherapy decision (n = 9), and diagnostic or metastatic status corrections (n = 4). Six patients are still awaiting decision. CONCLUSION Using real-time intercontinental multidisciplinary oncology videoconferencing to discuss complex or rare cancer cases is reliable and effective for decision making. This concept helped to limit to 21% the need for transfers to the mainland.

Abstract
PURPOSE International guidelines recommend specific interventions to reduce cancer-related fatigue (CRF). Evidence suggests underutilization of these interventions among breast cancer survivors. The QualFatigue study aimed to explore the potential factors influencing the use of specific interventions, for relief, in patients with CRF through qualitative analyses. METHODS Patients with stage I-III breast cancer, and CRF ≥4 on a 10-point numerical scale were recruited within 6-24 months at the end of their primary treatment. Semi-structured interviews were performed. Emergent themes were identified using a stepped content analysis (QDA Miner software). RESULTS Data saturation was achieved with 15 interviews. Four main themes emerged as potential sources of influence in the participants' use of specific interventions: (1) expectations regarding the management of CRF, (2) representations of the benefits provided by the interventions, (3) individual physical and psychological conditions, and (4) social and environmental situations. Six key levers came out transversally to optimize the use of specific interventions to relieve CRF: (1) listening and recognition of the individual difficulties and needs; (2) individual and global health assessments; (3) information and advice on how to manage CRF; (4) discussion groups focused on the management of CRF; (5) group activities; and (6) professional and personalized guidance. CONCLUSION This study calls for multi-level action to address many persistent barriers and exploit levers in the management of CRF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The mechanisms linking systemic inflammation to poor outcome in ischemic stroke are not fully understood. The authors investigated if peripheral inflammation following reperfusion therapy leads to an increase in cerebral edema (CED), thus hindering the clinical recovery. METHODS We designed a single-center study conducted at Centro Hospitalar Universitário São João between 2017 and 2019. Inclusion criteria were being adult, having an anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke, and receiving reperfusion therapy. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios, and the systemic inflammatory response syndrome criteria were determined. The presence and grade of CED were evaluated on the computed tomography performed 24 hours following event. The clinical outcomes included early neurological deterioration and functional dependence at 90 days. Adjusted odds ratio and 95% CI were obtained by ordinal and logistic regression models. Optimal cutoff values were defined using receiver operating characteristic analysis in the training cohort and validated in an independent data set. RESULTS Five hundred fifty-three patients were included. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte increased with higher degrees of CED at 24 hours (adjusted odds ratio, 1.34 [1.09-1.68], P<0.01) and was associated with early neurological deterioration (adjusted odds ratio, 1.30 [1.04-1.63], P<0.05) and poor functional status at 90 days (adjusted odds ratio, 1.79 [1.28-2.48], P<0.01). Platelet-to-lymphocyte was not associated with the outcomes. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome was related to CED due to altered white blood cell counts. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte was the best predictor with an area under the curve around 0.7. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ≥7 had and accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity around 60%. CONCLUSIONS Increased systemic inflammation is linked to the severity of CED early after reperfusion therapy in stroke. Easily obtained inflammatory markers convey early warning alerts for patients at risk of severe neurological complications with an impact on long-term functional outcome. CED quantification should be included as an end point in proof-of-concept trials in immunomodulation in stroke.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is among the most common and distressing side effects of cancer treatment. Different types of interventions, including physical activity (PA), psychosocial and mind-body interventions, have been shown to reduce CRF. We aimed to explore HCPs' practices and barriers to refer patients towards interventions to reduce CRF. METHODS We performed a qualitative study using key informant interviews among a sample of 20 HCPs including medical, surgical and radiation oncologists, pain specialists, nurses, psychologists, psychiatrists and physiotherapists recruited from breast, prostate and colorectal cancer disease groups from a comprehensive cancer centre. RESULTS Most interviewees reported not to address CRF spontaneously during consultations. When the topic of CRF was brought up by patients, all interviewees acknowledged to recommend PA, whereas few would recommend psychosocial or mind-body interventions. Barriers to recommend interventions to manage CRF included: lack of knowledge about CRF and its treatment, lack of time and complexity of the referral due to their accessibility and cost. CONCLUSION In a diverse sample of HCPs, most acknowledged not to address CRF proactively with their patients, but identified several actionable barriers. Specific training on screening and management of CRF and improving the referral network dedicated to interventions need to be implemented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epiduroscopy is a percutaneous endoscopic technique with an interesting diagnostic and therapeutic potential. AIM The study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of this modern minimally invasive method in treating pain together with the accompanying neurological symptoms of patients with a failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS). RESULTS In the retrospective multicentre clinical study, we monitored the effect of epiduroscopic performance in 40 patients with FBSS before epiduroscopy and after 6 and 12 months. The results of the study indicated a significant improvement in back pain after 6 months, at p<0.05. At the same time, a significant improvement was observed in pain radiating to the lower limbs after 6 and 12 months at p<0.05, as well as a significant improvement in the Oswestry Disability Index of the limbs after 6 months and after 12 months (p<0.05). CONCLUSION The current summarised results indicate a significant positive effect of epiduroscopy in the treatment of chronic back pain with a reduction in radiating pain to the lower extremities and an increase in patients' quality of life after the procedure (Tab. 2, Fig. 1, Ref. 23).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence on how weight loss correlates to health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) among obese breast cancer (BC) patients is limited. We aimed to evaluate associations between weight changes and HRQOL. METHODS We included 993 obese women with stage I-II-III BC from CANTO, a multicenter, prospective cohort collecting longitudinal, objectively-assessed anthropometric measures and HRQOL data (NCT01993498). Associations between weight changes (±5% between diagnosis and post-treatment [shortly after completion of surgery, adjuvant chemo- or radiation-therapy]) and patient-reported HRQOL (EORTC QLQ-C30/B23) were comprehensively evaluated. Changes in HRQOL and odds of severely impaired HRQOL were assessed using multivariable generalized estimating equations and logistic regression, respectively. RESULTS 14.1% women gained weight, 67.3% remained stable and 18.6% lost weight. Significant decreases in functional status and exacerbation of symptoms were observed overall post-treatment. Compared to gaining weight or remaining stable, obese women who lost weight experienced less of a decline in HRQOL, reporting better physical function (mean change [95%CI] for gain, stability and loss: -12.9 [-16.5,-9.3], -6.9 [-8.2,-5.5] and -6.2 [-8.7,-3.7]; pinteraction[weight-change-by-time] = 0.006), less dyspnea (+18.9 [+12.3,+25.6], +9.2 [+6.5,+11.9] and +3.2 [-1.0,+7.3]; pinteraction = 0.0003), and fewer breast symptoms (+22.1 [+16.8,+27.3], +18.0 [+15.7,+20.3] and +13.4 [+9.0,+17.2]; pinteraction = 0.044). Weight loss was also significantly associated with reduced odds of severe pain compared with weight gain (OR [95%CI] = 0.51 [0.31-0.86], p = 0.011) or stability (OR [95%CI] = 0.62 [0.41-0.95], p = 0.029). No associations between weight loss and worsening of other physical or psychosocial parameters were found. CONCLUSIONS This large contemporary study suggests that weight loss among obese BC patients during early survivorship was associated with better patient-reported outcomes, without evidence of worsened functionality or symptomatology in any domain of HRQOL.

Abstract
552 Background: Biliary tract cancers (BTC) are rare and heterogeneous cancers with poor prognosis. Several actionable genomic targets have been described in BTC but data on the efficacy of targeted therapies remain limited. The main objectives of this retrospective study was to evaluate the frequency of actionable genomic alterations among BTC and the impact of targeted therapy. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis on BTC patients seen at Gustave Roussy (IGR) from Dec 2011 to Jul 2019. All clinical and genomic reports were reviewed. Results: The study population included 212 patients with the main following characteristics: median age 61 years, female 51%, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma 57%, median of 2 previous lines. Of 212 BTC patients, 170 patients had a genomic profile based on archival tissue or a new tumor biopsy (IGR panel n = 120; Foundation One panel n = 92 ). 124 patients (73%) had at least one genomic alteration and 68 (40%) patients had genomic alteration considered as actionable. The most common actionable targets were FGFR2 rearrangement/mutation (n = 24, 35.3%), HER2/3 mutations (n = 9, 13.2%) and IDH1/2 mutations (n = 7, 10.3%). Of those 68 patients, 58 received the matched targeted therapy: FGFR inhibitor n = 24, HER2/3 inhibitors n = 9, Akt/PIK3CA/mTOR inhibitors n = 7, IDH1 inhibitor n = 6. In the treated population, the objective response rate was 36.2% and the disease control rate 85.1%. Progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.2 months compared to 2.8 months (p = 0.02) for patients who did not received targeted treatment. Overall survival (OS) was 17.7 months compared to 11.0 months (p = 0.03) for patients who did not received targeted treatment. Conclusions: Actionable genomic targets are frequent among BTC. Profiling-directed therapies resulted in a 36% response rate, a 85% tumor control rate and a 6.2 months PFS which compare favorably to second-line chemotherapy. A randomized trial is required to confirm the benefit of precision medicine in BTC.

Abstract
Purpose A substantial proportion of cancer survivors experience fatigue after diagnosis. Physical activity (PA) can impact fatigue after cancer. In this study, we evaluated the prevalence and association of fatigue and the practice of PA in a population with early cancer. Methods Using the national population‐based French cross‐sectional study Vie après le cancer 2, we included 1984 patients with early breast (61.1%), prostate (21.5%), and colorectal (17.4%) cancer. Severe fatigue at 2 years postdiagnosis was defined by a score ≥40 in the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C30) fatigue subscale. PA was defined as (a) self‐reported PA before diagnosis (active/inactive) and (b) change in PA since diagnosis (increased/maintained exposure vs decreased exposure/remaining inactive). Multivariate regression examined associations of severe fatigue with PA, adjusting for baseline clinical and treatment variables. Results Median age was 52 years. 51.5% of patients experienced severe fatigue 2 years post‐diagnosis. 87.7% reported to be physically active before cancer diagnosis; 53.3% of patients either decreased PA or remained inactive at 2 years postdiagnosis. At 2 years postdiagnosis, severe fatigue was associated with a change in PA since diagnosis: patients with decreasing PA/remaining inactive from pre‐ to postdiagnosis had a higher risk of severe fatigue vs those with increasing/maintaining PA (adjusted odds ratio [95% confidence interval] 2.32 [1.85‐2.90]). Conclusion Fatigue continues to be a substantial problem for cancer survivors 2 years after cancer diagnosis and is associated with PA decreasing/remaining inactive since diagnosis. Interventions to maintain or increase PA for cancer survivors should be tested to mitigate long‐term fatigue after cancer.

Abstract
Background Cetuximab is crucial in the management of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck of patients. Grade 3-4 cetuximab-induced infusion reactions (CI-IRs) occur in 2% of patients with colorectal cancer. Despite the 2.7% CI-IR rate in the EXTREME trial, higher rates were reported in small series of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) (6%-18%). There is an urgent need to better appraise the natural history and the predictive factors for CI-IRs in patients with HNSCC exposed to cetuximab. Methods The medical records from patients with HNSCC (n=428) treated by cetuximab at Gustave Roussy from January 2013 to December 2015 were reviewed. The impact of potential risk factors was analysed. Results Out of 428 patients, 24 patients (5.4%) presented CI-IR, including grade 3-4 (95.7%); about 21% (5/24) requiring intensive care unit referral and quasi all occurred within the first cycle (21/24). In a multivariate analysis, the occurrence of grade 3-4 CI-IR was associated with tobacco and alcohol history (p=8.5e-3) and with prior allergy history (p=2.9e-3). CI-IRs tended to be associated with poor overall survival in patients with recurrent and metastatic HNSCC and with a higher number of further lines of chemotherapy. Conclusion In real life, CI-IRs appear far more common in patients with HNSCC (5.4%) than reported in prospective trials. This is the largest series of patients ever focusing on the risk of CI-IR in patients with HNSCC. Prior allergy history and tobacco history are associated with CI-IR and could be used to better allocate treatment. Further prospective data are required to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Background Axitinib is used after failure of first line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). A known side effect is the increase of haemoglobin level (HbL) during treatment with a suspected correlation with better outcome. Our objective was to examine whether HbL increase during the first three months of axitinib treatment is associated with better prognosis. Methods Retrospective multicentre analysis including patients with mRCC treated with axitinib for at least three months from 2012 to 2014. Progression-free survival (PFS) was analysed by a Cox model according to gender, International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) prognostic score, high blood pressure (hBP), and maximum increase in HbL within the first three months of treatment. Results Ninety-eight patients were analysed (71% men; median age at treatment initiation: 62 years; IMDC: 24%, 50%, and 26% in the favourable, intermediate, and poor-risk group, respectively). Patients received axitinib for a median of 8 months. During the first three months, the median increase of HbL was +2.3 g/dL (−1.1; 7.2). Fifty-six (57%) patients developed hBP. In multivariate analysis, after adjustment for performance status (P < 0.0001) and gender (P = 0.0041), the combination of HbL increase ≥2.3 g/dL and any grade hBP was significantly associated with longer PFS (HR = 0.40, 95%CI [0.24; 0.68]). Conclusions Early HbL increase during axitinib treatment combined with hBP is an independent predictive factor of PFS. These results require validation in a prospective setting.

Abstract
10069 Background: A substantial proportion of breast, colo-rectal and prostate cancer patients (pts) can expect long term disease free survival after their primary treatment. Among those, fatigue commonly persists after diagnosis (dx) and can be debilitating. In this study, we evaluated the incidence of fatigue 2 years (y) after cancer dx and its association with health behaviors. Methods: We used a French population based cross-sectional study, which included a representative sample of pts from 12 cancer types (VICAN2). VICAN2 surveyed 4347 pts 2 y after dx. There is a 99% completion rate of fatigue related questions. For this study, we included 2017 pts with breast (1237), colo-rectal (348) and prostate (432) cancer without evidence of metastases at dx or relapse 2y after dx and with fatigue information. Severe fatigue was defined as average score of EORTC QLQC30 fatigue subscale ≥40 at 2y after dx. There were <1% of missing values in the evaluated covariates. Multivariate logistic regression models looked at associations of fatigue with heatlh behaviors (Δ in exercise since dx, exercise at diagnosis, body mass index (BMI), Δ since dx, smoking), age, gender, comorbidities, education, employment, cancer type, radiation, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy. Results: 52% of pts reported severe fatigue at 2 y after dx (median fatique score: 44, range: 0-100). 2 y after dx, 47% of pts either stopped or decrease exercise and 16% had a ≥ 10% change in BMI. Factors associated with fatigue included health behaviors (Table), but also age (adjusted odds ratio [ aOR] for severe fatigue, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 0.97, 0.96-0.98), gender ( aOR, 95 CI male vs. female: 0.5, 0.3-0.8), comorbidities ( aOR, 95 CI yes vs. no: 2.0, 1.6-2.4) and treatment type ( aOR, 95 CI radiation vs. no: 1.5, 1.1-2.0). Conclusions: Fatigue continues to be a substantial problem for cancer survivors 2 y after dx. Some factors that may contribute to persistent fatigue (health behaviors) may be amenable to interventions. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Markers of bone metabolism, such as N-telopeptide of type I collagen (NTX), have been demonstrated to be prognostic in previous trials of breast cancer (BC) patients with bone metastases (BMs). In the present study, we tested the survival effect of the NTX response to zoledronic acid (ZA) at 3 and 12 months in a contemporaneous cohort of BC patients with BMs and evaluated the influence of extraskeletal metastatic disease on NTX variation. PATIENTS AND METHODS The present study was a prospective cohort study of consecutive BC patients diagnosed and treated at a single center. Patients presenting with de novo radiological evidence of BMs who started monthly intravenous ZA were included. Urinary NTX was measured at baseline and 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after ZA introduction. RESULTS Overall, 71 patients were enrolled, 32 with BMs and 39 with BMs plus extraskeletal metastases. The proportion of patients with elevated NTX at baseline and 3 and 12 months was 49.3%, 26.6%, and 34.2%, respectively. The variables associated with survival included age at diagnosis, tumor estrogen receptor status, and NTX at 3 and 12 months. Multivariate analysis showed that, in addition to age at diagnosis, only the 3-month NTX level was significantly associated with survival. Patients with BMs plus extraskeletal metastases had an erratic NTX variation pattern, unrelated to survival. CONCLUSION In the present contemporaneous cohort of BC patients with BMs, the NTX response at 3 months was strongly associated with survival. Furthermore, an early response to ZA was strongly associated with long-term NTX control. Finally, patients with BMs plus extraskeletal metastases had an erratic NTX variation. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The present study showed that when accommodating recent therapy innovations and longer patient survival, the N-telopeptide (NTX) variation at 3 months is strongly associated with survival. In this setting, in addition to a few other clinicopathological features, NTX is a powerful prognostic marker. Moreover, early NTX correction associates with persistently normal NTX. This might identify a subgroup of patients with a good prognosis who are eligible for premature zoledronic acid (ZA) de-escalation. Finally, patients with bone plus extraskeletal metastases showed an erratic variation of NTX, raising concerns that a single ZA regimen might not fit all patients. Future trials should test its effect according to the presence of extraskeletal involvement.

Abstract
580 Background: Axitinib is used after failure of first line treatment for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). A common side effect of axitinib is the increase of hemoglobin level (HbL) during treatment with a suspected correlation with better outcome. We examined whether HbL increase during the first 3 months of axitinib treatment is associated with better prognosis. Methods: Retrospective multicenter analysis including patients with mRCC treated with axitinib for at least 3 months from 2012 to 2014 as part of the French temporary use authorization cohort. Progression-free survival (PFS) was analyzed according to the following factors: gender, International Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Database Consortium (IMDC) prognostic score at axitinib initiation, polycythemia (HbL above 16.5/18.5 g/dL or hematocrit above 56/60% for women/men), and maximum increase in HbL within the first 3 months of treatment. Results: 97 patients were analyzed (71% men; median age at diagnosis: 54.7 years [22; 80]; IMDC: 23%, 49%, and 27% in the favorable, intermediate, and poor-risk group, respectively). Patients received axitinib for a median of 8 months [3; 30]. Grade 2-3 toxicities were observed in 81% of patients. Objective response rate was 32%. The median PFS and OS were 8.9 [7.4; 9.3] and 22 [19.4; not reached] months, respectively. During the first 3 months, 81 patients (84%) experienced HbL increase with a median increase of +2.3g/dL [-1.1; 7.2] and 40 of them (51%) had an increase above this median. Eight patients (8%) presented polycythemia. In univariate analysis, significantly longer PFS was observed for men (p = 0.02), for patients who had a better IMDC prognostic score (p = 0.004), and for patients who experienced an increase of HbL ≥ 2.3 g/dL (with a median PFS of 11.7 vs. 7.4 months; p = 0.025), but not for patients with polycythemia. In a multivariate analysis, after adjustment for IMDC score (p < 0.0001) and gender (p = 0.029), an increase in HbL ≥ 2.3 g/dL was significantly associated with a longer PFS (HR = 0.57, 95%CI [0.34; 0.95]). Conclusions: HbL increase ≥ 2.3g/dL in the first 3 months of axitinib treatment was associated with longer PFS. These results require validation in a prospective trial setting.

Abstract
Secondary malignancy of the penis is a rare clinical condition, often associated with disseminated genitourinary malignancies. The prognosis is poor and the treatment options include penectomy, local surgical excision, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and supportive therapy. Neither of these therapeutic options lead to superior treatment outcomes in the literature. The authors report the case of a 66 year-old man with a metastasis to the glans penis from a rectal adenocarcinoma, diagnosed two years after radical treatment for primary disease. The patient underwent palliative treatment with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, remaining asymptomatic and disease-free at one year follow-up. Close follow-up of patients with history of rectal adenocarcinoma is very important. Radiochemotherapy is a feasible and effective therapeutic option for penile metastasis, addressing both disease control and symptomatic improvement.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment for patients with colorectal liver metastases, resulting in 5-year survival rates of 36 - 58. Although many studies have been performed to determine prognostic factors for tumor recurrence and survival after resection of colorectal liver metastases, there are few prognostic scoring systems stratifying patients undergoing surgery for colorectal liver metastases into risk group models. OBJECTIVES To identify, evaluate and compare the existing prognostic scores for survival after surgery for resection of colorectal liver metastases. MATERIAL AND METHODS Electronic search in PubMed, Cochrane and Embase from 1990 to 2013 using the terms 'hepatic resection', 'colorectal cancer', 'liver metastasis', 'hepatectomy', 'prognostic', and 'score'. Only studies proposing a prognostic model or risk stratification based on clinical and/or pathological variables were included. RESULTS From 1996 to June 2013, 19 scoring systems were identified, including one nomogram. Thirty prognostic factors were identified although none of the factors was common to all prognostic models. The 4 factors most often included were: number of liver metastases, regional lymph node metastization of primary tumor, preoperative CEA level and maximum size of metastases. The median study sample size was 305 patients (81-1 568 patients) and median follow-up was 33 months (16-54 months). All studies were retrospective and used the Cox proportional hazards model for multi-variable analysis. CONCLUSION Several factors have been constantly reported as having prognostic value after liver resection of colorectal livermetastases, although there is no consensus on the ideal scoring system.

Abstract
437 Background: Local treatment of BM in mRCC pts comprises different approaches including thermal ablation techniques as well as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cryotherapy. We report our experience for the treatment of BM of mRCC pts using thermal ablation. Methods: The medical records of all pts with mRCC submitted to thermal ablation of BM from Feb 2008 to Oct 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Intention of treatment was recorded in 3 categories: complete treatment of all BM in pts with oligometastatic disease or prevention of skeletal related events (SRE) risk and/or pain relief in pts with multimetastatic disease. The local control rate and prognostic factors for local failure (LF) were analyzed including patient characteristics, extension of disease, BM characteristics and type of treatment. Results: 22 pts with BM of mRCC were treated by thermal ablation techniques, with 32 procedures (3 pts had >=3 BM treated). Histology of primary tumor was clear cell in 20 and chromophobe carcinoma in 2 pts. At time of BM treatment, Heng prognostic score was good, intermediate and poor in 36, 59 and 5% of pts. Median age was 67 yrs (48-85). A majority of men were treated (16/22=73%). In 34%, pts had BM synchronous with the primary. BM presented cortical bone erosion in 69% and neurological structures in the vicinity in 50%. Intention of treatment was complete control of BM in 43% and prevention of risk of SRE and/or pain relief in 57% of pts. Cryotherapy was performed in 72% and RF in 28% of cases. Concomitant cimentoplasty and arterial embolization was performed in 70% and 30% respectively. Pain relief was achieved in 81% of pts. LF occurred in 19% of pts (n=6) (95% CI: 4-33%). The median follow-up was 13.4 months (95% CI: 11-21). Median OS was not reached. 86% of pts are still alive at 12 months. The unfavorable prognostic factors for LF were BM size >50 mm (p=0.035) and neurological structures in the vicinity (p=0.0083). Conclusions: Thermal ablation techniques are treatment options that should be considered in the curative and palliative treatment of BM in pts with mRCC. When indications are carefully discussed, these techniques have the potential to achieve good local control and acceptable survival.

Abstract
A 28-year-old man presented with a 2-week history of red eye, photophobia, pain and decreased visual acuity of the right eye. The ophthalmological examination revealed hypertensive non-granulomatous panuveitis, retinal vasculitis with focus of retinochoroiditis with pigmented central area suggestive of ocular toxoplasmosis in the active phase. He started treatment with azithromycin, pyrimethamine, topical steroids and measures for control of intraocular pressure. Serology for Toxoplasma gondii was positive and for HIV, negative. For headache and vomiting, he was hospitalised in order to exclude cerebral toxoplasma. The cerebral CT scan, MRI and lumbar puncture were negative and treatment was changed to pyrimethamine, sulfadiazine and prednisolone. For persistence of vomiting he started clindamycin with clinical and ophthalmological improvement. The patient is currently under prophylaxis with co-trimoxazol for 1 year, and maintains clinical improvement. This case illustrates the rarity of presentation of ocular toxoplasmosis, without cerebral in an immunocompetent patient.

Abstract
Paratesticular sarcomas are rare and account for less than 1% of all adult sarcomas. Intrascrotal tumours can be testicular or paratesticular, paratesticular tumours being rarer (7-10%). Only 30% of paratesticular tumours are malignant and 90% of these are sarcomas. Histological subtypes include leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, liposarcoma and undifferentiated high-grade pleomorphic sarcoma. Recurrence is frequent in this type of tumour and can occur years from initial diagnosis. These reports show two cases of paratesticular sarcoma with very distinct evolutions. The first case concerns a patient who presented with low-grade leiomyosarcoma with two local recurrences treated with surgery, and distance recurrence with cutaneous, subcutaneous, pulmonary and hepatic metastasis 30 years after surgery of the primary tumour. The second case reports of a patient who presented with high-grade myxoid liposarcoma with local and distance recurrence 3 years after surgery of the primary tumour, which progressed after chemotherapy; the patient died 7 months after diagnosis of recurrence.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common malignant disease in men and the second in women worldwide. CRC relapse occurs mostly in liver and lungs, decreasing the 5-year survival to 6 %. Metadherin (MTDH) is overexpressed in several types of cancer, has been implicated in proliferation, invasion, metastasis, angiogenesis, and chemoresistance, and is a factor of poor prognosis in CRC. In this work we addressed the prognostic significance of MTDH expression in CRC progression to the lungs. We found that MTDH gene was more frequently amplified (copy number >1.8) in patients with CRC and relapse to the lung, when compared to patients without lung metastases (17.4 vs 100 %; p < 0.001). We observed a correlation between MTDH gene copy number and MTDH expression by IHC (p = 0.0001). Next we also analyzed MTDH expression by IHC in samples from 85 patients diagnosed with CRC, stage II or III, M0, with at least 3 years of follow-up. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that lung relapse-free survival (HR 5.29, 95 % CI 1.90-14.77, p = 0.0004), liver relapse-free survival (HR 8.59, 95 % CI 0.99-74.18, p = 0.003), relapse-free survival (HR 4.85, 95 % CI 1.88-12.45, p = 0.0003) and overall survival (HR 3.75, 95 % CI 1.15-12.18, p = 0.018) were significantly lower in the group with high MTDH expression. Multivariate analysis showed that high MTDH expression was an independent factor for all outcomes. This study demonstrates that high MTDH expression is a biomarker of relapse in CRC, including lung-specific relapse. Determination of MTDH expression in primary CRC may be useful in the earlier detection of lung metastases in patients with high expression and increased risk.

Abstract
A 71-year-old man operated for a sigmoid tumour remained in the surveillance after adjuvant chemotherapy. After 3 years, a left axillary lymph node was visible on CT scan. The biopsy revealed a necrotising and abscessed granulomatous lymphadenitis, suggestive of cat scratch disease. The patient confirmed having been scratched by a cat and the serology for Bartonella henselae was IgM+/IgG-. Direct and culture examinations for tuberculosis were negative. The patient was treated for cat scratch disease. One year later, the CT scan showed increased left axillary lymph nodes and a left pleural effusion. Direct and cultural examinations to exclude tuberculosis were again negative. Interferon-γ release assay testing for tuberculosis was undetermined and then positive. Lymph node and pleural tuberculosis were diagnosed and treated with a good radiological response. This article has provides evidence of the importance of continued search for the right diagnosis and that two diagnoses can happen in the same patient.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) metastasis can involve any organ. Head metastasis are rare, namely tongue, scalp and nose and only a few cases have been described. The authors describe three cases of unusual presentation of head metastasis of RCC. In case 1, a 50-year-old man with RCC underwent left nephrectomy, and presented 16 months later with nasal metastasis. In case 2, a 64-year-old woman with RCC operated 12 years ago, relapsed at multiple sites including scalp, which was treated surgically. In case 3, a 47-year-old man with RCC developed metastasis in multiple organs including a mass on the tongue that was operated and was compatible with primary tumour metastasis. These cases show the importance of correct diagnosis of rare presentations and local treatment of metastasis of RCC.

Abstract
The presence in waste of emerging pollutants (EPs), whose behaviours and effects are not well understood, may present unexpected health and environmental risks and risks for the treatment processes themselves. EP may include substances that are newly detected in the environment, substances already identified as risky and whose use in items is prohibited (but which may be present in old or imported product waste) or substances already known but whose recent use in products can cause problems during their future treatment as waste. Several scientific studies have been conducted to assess the presence of EP in waste, but they are mostly dedicated to a single category of substance or one particular waste treatment. In the absence of a comprehensive review focused on the impact of the presence of EP on waste treatment schemes, the authors present a review of the key issues associated with the treatment of waste containing emerging pollutants. This review presents the typologies of emerging pollutants that are potentially present in waste along with the major challenges for each treatment scheme (recycling, composting, digestion, incineration, landfilling and wastewater treatment). All conventional treatment processes are affected by these new pollutants, and they were almost never originally designed to consider these substances. In addition to these general aspects, a comprehensive review of available data, projects and future R&D needs related to the impact of nanoparticles on waste treatment is presented as a case study.

Abstract
9634 Background: The bone resorption marker NTX at baseline is a prognostic marker in BC patients with BM treated with zoledronic acid (ZOL), Coleman RE, JCO 2005. We investigate how the response of urinary NTX levels during ZOL therapy is related to patient outcome and disease characteristics. Methods: Consecutive BC patients with BM were prospectively included if they received monthly intravenous ZOL. Urinary NTX was determined at baseline and at following 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months from the initial ZOL treatment. NTX levels were considered elevated if > 50 nmol/mmol creatinine. The NTX changes were compared with patient and disease characteristics. Relative risks for negative clinical outcomes were estimated with Cox regression models. Results: Seventy-one BC patients with BM, mean aged 61.4 (29-87), were included. Mean survival was 34.1 months (3-131), with 21 patients alive after the last follow up (median 29 months). Thirty-nine patients also had extraskeletal metastases (BM-E+). Totally 329 urinary NTX samples were evaluated. At baseline, mean NTX was 153.0 (15.4 – 700.7) and 78.9% had elevated levels. Mean baseline NTX increased with age: 71.2 (<40); 139.3 (50-59); 241.8 (70-79). Among patients with normal NTX at 3 months, 89.5% continued to show normal NTX at 12 months. After ZOL treatments, 46.9%, 54.7%, and 61.0% of patients had normal NTX at 3, 6 and 12 months, respectively. NTX variance (1-12 months) was higher for BM-E+ patients compared with BM-only patients, p<0.001. Risk factor of death for patients with persistent elevated NTX at 3 months was 1.74 (p=0.074). Age and BM-E+ were also associated with risk of death. There was a trend to shorter survival in BC-E+ patients (p=0.056). Majority of patients (88.2%) with longer survival (> 36 months) and younger (age < 60) received endocrine therapy. Conclusions: Early (3 months) urinary NTX normalization to ZOL correlates with long-term NTX normalization and survival. BC-E+ patients have a reduced NTX normalization rate compared to BM-only patients and may deserve further investigation for a more adequate schedule of bone-targeting agents.

Abstract
The incidence of left atrial thrombi is higher in patients with mitral valve stenosis. Its presence and location have important implications in deciding on the therapeutic approach, particularly the need for valve repair. We describe the case of a 63-year-old patient, with asymptomatic moderate mitral stenosis, hospitalized due to community-acquired pneumonia, in whom investigation to exclude pulmonary thromboembolism revealed a giant left atrial thrombus, which required urgent surgery.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Terlipressin in the treatment of severe hypotension in cardiosurgical patients and to assess the differences between the groups of survivors and nonsurvivors. METHODS The study population was 27 patients who developed hypotension after cardiac surgery. RESULTS All surviving patients developed refractory hypotension early after extracorporeal circulation. Of the 9 nonsurvivors, 3 also experienced postcardiotomy hypotension, while the remaining 6 developed severe hypotension during sepsis. Terlipressin given continuously significantly increased the mean arterial pressure and reduced the heart rate in both groups. Norepinephrine requirements decreased significantly among survivors only. The mean pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure levels remained unchanged or increased insignificantly, while several liver markers in the survivor group significantly increased. CONCLUSION Terlipressin given continuously is a potent vasopressor in patients with norepinephrine-resistant postcardiotomy hypotension; however, Terlipressin treatment failed in patients who developed refractory hypotension during sepsis. We cannot recommend this therapy in such patients as it proved to be hemodynamicaly ineffective and may even worsen the circulatory situation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hyperglycemia is commonly observed in patients hospitalized on intensive care units. It is has been demonstrated that normalization of blood glucose level using intensive insulin therapy significantly improves prognosis of these patients. The aim of our study was comparison of standard protocol of intensive insulin therapy used on cardiac surgery ICU in General University Hospital in Prague and computer algorithm MPC (Model Predictive Control). PATIENTS AND METHODS 20 patients with glycaemia higher than 6.7 mmol/l at the time of admission to ICU were included into the study, 10 subjects were randomized for standard treatment, 10 for treatment with MPC algorithm. Glycaemia was measured hourly during 48 hours, insulin infusion was rate was adjusted hourly in MPC algorithm or in 1-2 hours in standard protocol group. RESULTS Blood glucose levels were in the target range significantly longer in MPC relative to standard protocol group (26.3 +/- 2.1 hrs vs 20.3 +/- 2.5 hrs). Mean blood glucose was also lower using MPC algorithm (6.47 +/- 0.11 vs 6.72 +/- 0.23 mmol/l). On the contrary the target range was established faster using standard protocol (8.9 +/- 1.2 vs 10.3 +/- 0.9 hrs), duration of hyperglycaemia was the same in both groups (7.3 +/- 1.9 in standard protocol vs 7.3 +/- 1.3 hrs in MPC algorithm). Average 48-hours insulin dose was higher in MPC than standard protocol group (230.2 +/- 38.8 vs 199.1 +/- 27.8 IU/48 hrs). 2 hypoglycaemic episodes occured in 2 patients in standard protocol group. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that the use of MPC algorithm result in more effective blood glucose control in critically ill patients than standard protocol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increased blood glucose levels are frequently observed in critically ill patients. Recent studies have shown that the normalization of glycemia by intensive insulin therapy decreases mortality, length of the hospitalization and number of complications. METHODS AND RESULTS The aim of this pilot study was to compare blood glucose control by an automated model predictive control algorithm with variable sampling rate (eMPC) with routine glucose management protocol (RP) in peri- and postoperative period in cardiac surgery patients. 20 patients were included into this study (14 men and 6 women, mean age 68 +/- 10 let, BMI 28.3 +/- 5.0 kg/m2). 10 patients were randomized for treatment using eMPC algorithm and 10 patients for routine protocol. All patients underwent elective cardiac surgery and were treated with continuous insulin infusion to maintain glycemia in target range 4.4-6.1 mmol/l. The study duration was 24 hours. Mean blood glucose was significantly lower in eMPC vs. RP group (5.80 +/- 0.45 vs. 7.23 +/- 0.84 mmol/l, p < 0.05). Percentage of time in target range was significantly higher in eMPC vs. RP group (67.6 +/- 8.7% vs. 27.6 +/- 15.8%, p < 0.05). Percentage of time above the target range was higher in RP vs. eMPC group. Average insulin infusion rate was higher in eMPC vs. RP group (4.18 +/- 1.19 vs. 3.24 +/- 1.43 IU/hour, p < 0.05). Average sampling interval was significantly shorter in eMPC vs. RP group (1.51 +/- 0.24 vs. 2.03 +/- 0.16 hour, p < 0.05). No severe hypoglycaemia in either group occurred during the study. CONCLUSIONS The results of our pilot study suggest that eMPC algorithm is more effective in maintaining euglycemia in peri- and post-operative period in patients after cardiac surgery and comparably safe as compared to RP.
