Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: The discovery of immune checkpoint inhibitors has revolutionized metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treatment. However, in patients with RCC brain metastases, response rates are low and survival outcomes poor. To understand the tumor microenvironmental differences between primary kidney tumors, extracranial metastases, and brain metastases, we developed a detailed single-cell atlas of RCC brain metastases along with their matched extracranial and primary tumors.
Methods: We performed single-nucleus RNA-seq on 27 samples (nearly 200,000 cells) from RCC patients; samples included 14 brain metastases, 8 matched primary kidney tumors, and 5 matched extracranial metastases. We performed multiplex IHC to validate selected transcriptomic findings. We used Nanostring CosMx 960-plex RNA spatial molecular imaging technique on selected samples to validate cellular interactions in a spatial context.
Results: We established a multi-tissue single-cell atlas of RCC brain metastases by identifying 9 major and 37 minor malignant, immune, and stromal cell clusters. Brain metastases had higher neuronal and glial cells interacting with immune and tumor cells. Brain metastasis tumor cells were also transcriptomically reprogrammed to adapt to the brain microenvironment through enrichment of MYC targets, MTORC1 signaling, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, fatty-acid metabolism, oxidative phosphorylation, and reactive oxygen species pathways. Moreover, cell-to-cell communication and downstream target gene expression analyses showed that brain metastasis tumor cells expressed ligands and receptors that induce tumor cell proliferation in both autocrine and paracrine fashions. Among T-cell populations, we found fewer proliferating cytotoxic T lymphocytes in the brain than in other sites. Moreover, T cells in brain metastases expressed higher levels of several targetable inhibitory checkpoints than did extracranial metastases. In addition, we found that naïve/memory T cells in brain metastases were a favorable prognostic marker for overall survival after craniotomy. Our characterization of myeloid cell populations across the 3 disease sites found fewer dendritic cells and monocytes in the brain compared to other sites. Macrophages in brain metastases more highly expressed an M2 immunosuppressive gene signature than did those in primary RCC tumors.
Conclusion: Our findings from the largest single-cell atlas of RCC brain metastases with matched primary and extracranial metastases suggest several unique targetable, immunosuppressive biological mechanisms in the brain microenvironment. These results provide a foundation for a deeper understanding of RCC brain metastasis biology and can serve as a resource for the scientific community to further explore therapeutically targetable tumor and immune-related mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUD Treatment options for patients with melanoma brain metastasis (MBM) have changed significantly in the last decade. Few studies have evaluated changes in outcomes and factors associated with survival in MBM patients over time. The aim of this study is to evaluate changes in clinical features and overall survival (OS) for MBM patients. METHODS Patients diagnosed with MBMs from 1/1/2009-12/31/2013 (Prior Era; PE) and 1/1/2014-12/31/2018 (Current Era; CE) at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center were included in this retrospective analysis. The primary outcome measure was OS. Log-rank test assessed differences between groups; multivariable analyses were performed with Cox proportional hazards models and recursive partitioning analysis (RPA). RESULTS 791 MBM patients (PE, n=332; CE, n=459) were included in analysis. Median OS from MBM diagnosis was 10.3 months (95% CI, 8.9 - 12.4) and improved in the CE versus PE (14.4 vs. 10.3 months, P < .001). Elevated serum LDH was the only factor associated with worse OS in both PE and CE patients. Factors associated with survival in CE MBM patients included patient age, primary tumor Breslow thickness, prior immunotherapy, leptomeningeal disease (LMD), symptomatic MBMs, and whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT). Several factors associated with OS in the PE were not significant in the CE. RPA demonstrated that elevated serum LDH and prior immunotherapy treatment are the most important determinants of survival in CE MBM patients. CONCLUSIONS OS and factors associated with OS have changed for MBM patients. This information can inform contemporary patient management and clinical investigations.

Abstract
Brain metastases are a challenging manifestation of renal cell carcinoma. We have a limited understanding of brain metastasis tumor and immune biology, drivers of resistance to systemic treatment, and their overall poor prognosis. Current data support a multimodal treatment strategy with radiation treatment and/or surgery. Nonetheless, the optimal approach for the management of brain metastases from renal cell carcinoma remains unclear. To improve patient care, the authors sought to standardize practical management strategies. They performed an unstructured literature review and elaborated on the current management strategies through an international group of experts from different disciplines assembled via the network of the International Kidney Cancer Coalition. Experts from different disciplines were administered a survey to answer questions related to current challenges and unmet patient needs. On the basis of the integrated approach of literature review and survey study results, the authors built algorithms for the management of single and multiple brain metastases in patients with renal cell carcinoma. The literature review, consensus statements, and algorithms presented in this report can serve as a framework guiding treatment decisions for patients. CA Cancer J Clin. 2022;72:454-489.

Abstract
Combination immunotherapy with sequential administration may enhance metastatic melanoma (MM) patients with long-term disease control. High Dose Aldesleukin/Recombinant Interleukin-2 (HD rIL-2) and ipilimumab (IPI) offer complementary mechanisms against MM. This phase IV study assessed the sequenced use of HD rIL-2 and IPI in MM patients. Eligible Stage IV MM patients were randomized to treatment with either two courses of HD rIL-2(600,000 IU/kg) followed by four doses of IPI 3 mg/kg or vice-versa. The primary objective was to compare one-year overall survival (OS) with historical control (46%, Hodi et al., NEJM 2010). Secondary objectives were 1-year progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and adverse events (AEs) profile. Evaluable Population (EP) included patients who received at least 50% of planned treatment with each drug. Thirteen and 16 patients were randomized to receive HD rIL-2 first, and IPI first, respectively. One-year OS rate was 75% for intention to treat population. Eighteen patients were included in EP, 8 in HD rIL-2, 10 in IPI first arm. In EP, 1-year OS, PFS and ORR rates were 87%, 68%, and 50%, respectively. The frequency of AEs was similar in both arms with 13 patients experiencing Grade 3 or higher AEs, 3 resulting in the end of study participation. There was one HD rIL-2-related death, from cerebral hemorrhage due to thrombocytopenia. In this study with small sample size, HD rIL-2 and IPI were safe to administer sequentially in MM patients and showed more than additive effects. 1-year OS was superior to that of IPI alone from historical studies.

Abstract
Recent studies defined a potentially important role of the microbiome in modulating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and responses to therapies. We hypothesized that antibiotic usage may predict outcomes in patients with PDAC. We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of patients with resectable or metastatic PDAC seen at MD Anderson Cancer from 2003 to 2017. Demographic, chemotherapy regimen and antibiotic use, duration, type, and reason for indication were recorded. A total of 580 patients with PDAC were studied, 342 resected and 238 metastatic patients, selected retrospectively from our database. Antibiotic use, for longer than 48 hrs, was detected in 209 resected patients (61%) and 195 metastatic ones (62%). On resectable patients, we did not find differences in overall survival (OS) or progression‐free survival (PFS), based on antibiotic intake. However, in the metastatic cohort, antibiotic consumption was associated with a significantly longer OS (13.3 months vs. 9.0 months, HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.34–0.7, p = 0.0001) and PFS (4.4 months vs. 2 months, HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.34–0.68, p = <0.0001). In multivariate analysis, the impact of ATB remained significant for PFS (HR 0.59, p = 0.005) and borderline statistically significant for OS (HR 0.69, p = 0.06). When we analyzed by chemotherapy regimen, we found that patients who received gemcitabine‐based chemotherapy as first‐line therapy (n = 118) had significantly prolonged OS (HR 0.4, p 0.0013) and PFS (HR 0.55, p 0.02) if they received antibiotics, while those receiving 5FU‐based chemotherapy (n = 98) had only prolonged PFS (HR 0.54, p = 0.03). Antibiotics‐associated modulation of the microbiome is associated with better outcomes in patients with metastatic PDAC. We have analyzed the effect of antibiotics’ intake on two cohorts of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, resectable, and metastatic. We have found that on the metastatic cohort, antibiotics use was significantly associated with better outcomes, particularly, on patients that received gemcitabine based‐chemotherapy as the first line.

9540 Background: The management and OS of pts with metastatic melanoma have improved due to new systemic therapies. However, relatively little is known about the use of these treatments (tx) and their association with OS in pts with MBMs. We reviewed a large cohort of MBM pts to assess how pt demographics, disease characteristics, and MBM tx impact OS in the current era. Methods: Under an institutional review board-approved protocol, retrospective data were curated and analyzed from pts diagnosed with, and received tx for, MBM from 2014 to 2018 at the MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDA). Pts diagnosed with uveal or mucosal melanoma or other cancers were excluded. Pt demographics; timing and features of initial melanoma dx; timing and features of initial MBM dx; prior, initial and subsequent tx; and OS were collected. OS was determined from MBM dx to last clinical follow-up (FU). Pts alive at last FU were censored. The Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test were used to estimate OS and to assess univariate group differences, respectively. Multivariable (MV) associations of OS with variables of interest were investigated with Cox proportional hazards models. Initial treatment of MBM was assessed as a time-varying covariate. All statistical tests used a significance level of 5%. Results: A total of 401 MBM pts were identified. The median age at MBM dx was 61; 67% were male and 46% had a BRAF V600 mutation. At MBM diagnosis dx, most (70%) pts were asymptomatic; 70% had concurrent uncontrolled extracranial disease; 36% had elevated serum LDH. Prior tx included immunotherapy (IMT) for 39% and targeted therapy (TTX) for 17%. The median number of MBMs was 2; 31% had > 3 MBMs. Median largest MBM diameter was 1.0 cm, 9% had MBM > 3.0 cm, and 5% had concurrent leptomeningeal disease (LMD). Tx received after MBM dx included stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS; 53% as initial tx for MBM, 67% at any time after MBM dx), whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT; 16%, 35%), craniotomy (12%, 19%), IMT (37%, 74%), and/or TTX (22%, 40%). 31% received steroids during initial MBM tx. At a median FU of 13.4 (0.0 - 82.8) months (mos), the median OS was 15.1 mos, and 1- and 2-year OS rates were 56% and 40%. Notably, gender, time to MBM dx, and BRAF status were not associated with OS (univariate analysis). On MV analysis, clinical features associated with worse OS included increased age, increased primary tumor thickness, elevated LDH, > 3 MBMs, +LMD, +symptoms, and prior tx with IMT. Among tx used at any time after MBM dx, WBRT (HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.5-2.5) was associated with worse OS; SRS (HR 0.7, 95% CI 0.5-0.8) and IMT (HR 0.6, 95% CI 0.5-0.8) were associated with improved OS. Conclusions: In one of the largest cohorts of MBM pts described to date, OS has improved in MBM pts in the current era. Prognostic factors for OS include pt age, primary tumor and MBM features, prior tx, and tx for MBM. Additional analyses to assess the interaction of tx, disease features, and OS will be presented.

Abstract
9580 Background: Surveillance for CNS metastasis (mets) is not routinely performed in pts with clinically localized CM. Improved understanding of the incidence, timing and risk factors for the development of CNS metastasis in these pts may inform surveillance strategies. Methods: Under an IRB-approved protocol, demographics, tumor characteristics, and clinical events were collected for pts diagnosed from 1998 to 2019 with AJCC 8th edition stage I or II CM at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Dates of initial diagnosis, regional, distant non-CNS, and CNS mets were recorded. Symptoms and the extent of disease (brain, LMD, both) were recorded for pts with CNS mets. Cumulative incidence of distant mets (CNS and non-CNS) was determined using the competing risks method, including death; pts without CNS mets and alive at last follow-up were censored. Differences in cumulative incidence between groups were assessed using Gray’s test. Associations between measures of interest and cumulative incidence were determined using proportional subdistribution hazards regression models. All statistical tests used a significance level of 5%. Results: 5,179 Stage I-II CM pts were identified. At a median follow up of 82 (0.0-268.8) months, 703 (13.6%) pts were diagnosed with distant mets, including 355 (6.9%) with CNS mets. Cumulative incidence of CNS mets was 0%, 2%, and 5% at 1, 2, and 5 years, respectively. Among pts with distant mets, the first site of distant mets was CNS only for 29 (4%), non-CNS only for 557 (79%), and both for 116 (17%) pts. At initial diagnosis of CNS mets, 195 (55%) pts were asymptomatic, and 46 (13%) had no active extracranial disease. Median time to any distant met was longer for pts who were diagnosed with CNS mets [40.0 (1.9-238.0) months] vs pts diagnosed with non-CNS mets only [31.4 (1.1-185.7) months, p < 0.001]. On multivariable analysis, risk of CNS mets was significantly associated with primary tumor location of scalp [Hazard Ratio (HR) 3.4, 95% Confidence interval (CI) 1.9-5.9], head/neck (HR 3.3, 95% CI 2.0-5.3), or trunk (HR 2.3, 95% CI 1.5-3.5) (vs upper extremity); acral lentiginous melanoma subtype (HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.2-3.6) (vs superficial spreading); increased T category (T2 HR 1.5, 95% CI 1.1-2.2; T3 HR 1.9, 95% CI 1.2-3.0; T4 HR 2.1, 95% CI 1.1-3.8; vs T1), Clark level (CL) (CL4 HR 2.1, 95% CI 1.2-3.7 vs CL2), and mitotic rate (MR) (MR 5-9/mm2 HR 2.1, 95% CI 1.5-3.0; MR > 9/mm2 HR 2.0, 95% CI 1.3-3.0; vs MR 0-4/mm2). While high ( > 9/mm2) MR was associated with increased risk of CNS and non-CNS mets, intermediate (5-9/mm2) was associated with CNS mets only. Conclusions: Primary tumor location, tumor thickness, and MR were strongly associated with risk of CNS mets. MR rate was more strongly associated with risk of CNS than non-CNS mets. Validation in independent cohorts may provide evidence to support CNS surveillance strategies in select pts with stage I-II CM who are deemed high risk for CNS mets.

Abstract
e15781 Background: Recent studies have shown that the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)-associated gut microbiome can play a major in modulating responses to therapies. Antibiotics (ATB) can potentially alter the tumor and gut microbiota diversity and composition leading to modified responses to chemotherapeutic/immune therapy regimens and hence the survival. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 148 patients (pts) with documented metastatic PDAC seen at MD Anderson Cancer (MDACC) from 2009 to 2017. Along with demographic and chemotherapy regimen details the duration, type and reason for antibiotic consumption for more than 3 days were recorded. Overall survival (OS) and Progression free survival (PFS) were calculated. Log-rank test and Gehan-Breslow-Wilcoxon test were used to check the statistical significance for OS and PFS. Confounding variables were also accounted. Results: We analyzed the data of 148 metastatic pancreatic cancer pts[mean age 62.73, 50.67% males 49.32% females, 75.6% white] out of which 135 patients received antibiotics. The infectious sources consisted of intraabdominal (n = 68), urinary (n = 36), respiratory (n = 57), skin/soft tissue infections (n = 26), blood related (n = 24), and others (n = 76). Beta lactams (n = 96) and Quinolones (n = 96) were the most commonly prescribed antibiotics. When comparing outcomes, we found out that the median OS for pts taking macrolides (n = 24) was 541 days compared to 341 days for pts not taking macrolides (n = 144) (HR = 0.6384, p value = 0.0191) . Median PFS for pts taking macrolides was 178 days versus 124 days in those not taking macrolides (HR = 0.6331, p value = 0.0188). The potential confounders were having a respiratory infection or the type of chemotherapy regimen. Conclusions: Macrolide consumption for > 3 days leads to a prolonged OS and PFS. Consistent with the preclinical evidence our data suggests a potential role for some antibiotics in modulating PDAC-associated gut microbiome. Hence, having implications on the survival of PDAC pts.

Abstract
e15773 Background: Recent studies showed that gut microbial dysbiosis can affect carcinogenesis and tumor responses to therapies. Antibiotics, key pharmacologic agents that modulate microbiota diversity and bacterial strains, can lead to dysbiosis. Recent studies have postulated a tumor promoting effect for some pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC)-associated gut bacteria. However, the effects of antibiotic use on PDAC patients outcome is yet to be discovered. Methods: We examined a total of 342 patients who were diagnosed with PDAC between 2003-2015 and underwent primary tumor resection. Antibiotic exposure was defined as the use of antibiotics for ≥7 days between diagnosis and surgery. We collected data on patient demographics, presurgical antibiotic use, duration, type and reason, disease and therapy characteristics, and prognostic parameters. We analyzed and compared the objective responses, progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: From a total 342 patients with resected PDAC, 147 patients (43%) used antibiotics for ≥7 days duration during the presurgical period. The most frequently used antibiotics were quinolones (80.4%), beta-lactams (38.2%), nitroimidazoles (23%), glycopeptides (15.3%), tetracyclines (8.6%), and macrolides (6.7%). The median OS for patients with antibiotic use was 1007 vs. 940 days for those without antibiotic use (p = 0.57). The median PFS was 374 for patients with antibiotic use and 313 days for those without antibiotic use (p = 0.51). The effect of individual antibiotics was examined and statistical analysis was done for possible confounding factors including disease stage, treatment type, and the reason for antibiotic use. Tetracyclines use was found to be significantly associated with worse survival on resected PDAC patients and was not affected by confounding factors such as skin infections. The median OS of patients who had tetracycline for ≥7 days was 687 vs. 1004 days for those not exposed to this antibiotic (HR 1.836; p = 0.015). Although not statistically significant, PFS was shorter with tetracycline use. Conclusions: We conducted the first retrospective, single-center cohort study on resected PDAC patients examining the potential influence of antibiotic use on survival. Tetracycline use in resectable PDAC patients is associated with clinically significant decreased PFS and statistically significant worse OS. Further multicenter studies with larger population would be necessary to confirm these findings that could help clinical practice for infectious treatment in PDAC patients.

Abstract
Introduction: We aimed to determine the prevalence and landscape of germline mutations among patients with young-onset pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) as well as their influence in prognosis.Methods: Patients from two cohorts were studied, the high-risk cohort (HRC), which included 584 PDAC patients who received genetic counseling at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and a general cohort (GC) with 233 metastatic PDAC patients. We defined germline DNA sequencing on 13 known pancreatic cancer susceptibility genes. The prevalence and landscape of mutations were determined, and clinical characteristics including survival were analyzed.Results: A total of 409 patients underwent genetic testing (277 from HRC and 132 from GC). As expected, the HRC had higher prevalence of germline mutations compared with the GC: 17.3% versus 6.81%. The most common mutations in both cohorts were in BRCA1/2 and mismatch-repair (MMR) genes. Patients younger than 60 years old had significantly higher prevalence of germline mutations in both the HRC [odds ratios (OR), 1.93 ± 1.03-3.70, P = 0.039] and GC (4.78 ± 1.10-32.95, P = 0.036). Furthermore, PDAC patients with germline mutations in the GC had better overall survival than patients without mutations (HR, 0.44; 95% CI of HR, 0.25-0.76, P = 0.030).Discussion: Germline mutations are highly prevalent in patients with PDAC of early onset and can be predictive of better outcomes. Considering emerging screening strategies for relatives carrying susceptibility genes as well as impact on therapy choices, genetic counseling and testing should be encouraged in PDAC patients, particularly those of young onset.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare operating time and blood loss in patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomies (TLH) for benign conditions with either the Marseal™ IQ 5 mm (MS) or the Ligasure™ 5 mm (LS) vessel-sealing device. DESIGN AND SETTING A randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) in two German gynecology departments. PATIENTS 74 patients scheduled to undergo TLH for a symptomatic fibroid uterus, adenomyosis or severe meno-metrorrhagia. INTERVENTIONS Patients were randomized to receive a TLH with either the MS or the LS device. 27 variables were prospectively collected to address potential confounding issues. MEASUREMENT AND MAIN RESULTS Operating time, defined as the time period between the first (round ligament dissection) and the last (uterine vessels sealing) use of the device, estimated and calculated intraoperative blood loss. The mean operating time (95% confidence interval, CI) was 22.7 min (95% CI 17.6-27.7) for LS and 26.4 min (95% CI 20-32.8) for the MS device (p = .89). The estimated intraoperative blood loss was 164 ml (95% CI 110-217) for LS and 160 ml (95% CI 116-203) for the MS device (p = .36). The multivariate analyses accounting for BMI, endometriosis, uterine weight and appearance of fibroids did not reveal any significant effect of the type of device used on operating time and estimated blood loss. CONCLUSION In this RCT, both devices provided reliable and effective sealing and dissection. The reusable MS showed non-inferiority against the disposable LS device with regard to operating time and estimated intraoperative blood loss.

Abstract
RATIONALE Tamoxifen has been used in women with hormone receptor-positive breast cancer and has been shown to successfully reduce both recurrence and mortality. On the contrary, long-term use of tamoxifen has hormone-related urogenital side effects which decrease the quality of life of the patients. PATIENT CONCERNS In this case report, we present a breast cancer patient receiving tamoxifen who developed urinary incontinence; we discuss the effects of tamoxifen on urinary incontinence, which decreases quality of life of the patients who were evaluated in our clinic. DIAGNOSES Breast cancer, urinary incontinence. INTERVENTIONS Temporarily discontinuing tamoxifen. OUTCOMES Urinary incontinence resolved. LESSONS Based on the case we reported and literature, estrogen can cause a dose-dependent increase in incontinence, but more preclinical and clinical studies of both estrogen and SERMs are needed to support this notion; given the fact that some small-scale clinical studies have not proven a direct relationship between tamoxifen and urinary incontinence. We suggest that clinicians faced with the issue should temporarily stop usage of the drug once the complaint of urinary incontinence arises.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We evaluated in a large study meta-database of prospectively randomised phase III trials the prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients < and >40 years of age with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer. METHODS A total of 5055 patients of the AGO, GINECO, NSGO intergroup studies AGO-OVAR 3, 5, 7 and 9 were merged to identify 294 patients <40 years and 4761 patients ≥40 years. We conducted survival analyses and Cox proportional hazard regression models and additionally analysed a very homogeneous subcohort of 405 patients with serous epithelial ovarian cancer, excellent performance status, who had received complete macroscopic upfront cytoreduction and ≥5 chemotherapy cycles. RESULTS For patients <40 years, the median PFS was 28.9 months and the median OS was 75.3 months, while the median PFS for patients ≥40 years was 18.1 months and the median OS was 45.7 months. Independent prognostic factors were similar in both age groups. In a multivariate analysis including prognostic factors potentially leading to confounding, young age appeared to improve PFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.86; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.72-1.03) and OS (HR, 0.73; 95% CI: 0.59-0.91). The observed effect was even stronger in the subcohort of optimally treated patients with SEOC: PFS (HR, 0.34; 95% CI: 0.19-0.59) and OS (HR, 0.23; 95% CI: 0.09-0.56). DISCUSSION Prognostic factors were similar in both age groups. Young age appeared a strong independent protective prognostic factor for PFS and OS in the subcohort.
