Abstract
Objective Incompletely resected epithelial ovarian cancer represents a poor prognostic subset of patients. Novel treatment strategies are needed to improve outcomes for this population. We evaluated a treatment strategy combining platinum-based chemotherapy with pembrolizumab followed by pembrolizumab maintenance therapy in the first-line treatment after incomplete resection of epithelial ovarian cancer patients. Methods This was a single-arm, non-randomized pilot study of carboplatin, taxane, and immune checkpoint inhibitor, pembrolizumab, followed by 12 months of maintenance pembrolizumab in patients with incompletely resected epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Results A total of 29 patients were enrolled and evaluated for efficacy and safety. The best response to therapy was complete response in 16 (55%) patients, partial response in 9 (31%) patients, and 3 (10%) patients with progression of disease. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 13.2 months. Grade 3 and 4 toxicities occurred in 20% of patients. In all, 7 patients discontinued therapy due to adverse events. Quality-of-life scores remained high during therapy. Response to therapy did not correlate with PD-L1 tumor expression. Conclusions Combination platinum-taxane therapy with pembrolizumab did not increase median progression-free survival in this cohort of patients. Key message EOC is an immunogenic disease, but immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy has yet to impact outcomes. The current study utilized pembrolizumab in combination with standard chemotherapy followed by a maintenance treatment strategy in incompletely resected EOC. Progression-free survival was not extended in this poor prognostic group with combined chemotherapy and immunotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Dickkopf-1 (DKK1) is a Wnt signaling modulator promoting tumor growth, metastasis, angiogenesis, and immunosuppression by regulating innate immunity. DKK1 is over-expressed in gynecologic cancers and is associated with shortened survival. DKN-01 is a humanized monoclonal antibody with DKK1 neutralizing activity that may provide clinical benefit to patients whose tumors have overexpression of DKK1 or Wnt genetic alterations. METHODS We conducted an open-label, Phase 2 basket study with 2-stage design in patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC) and platinum-resistant/refractory epithelial ovarian cancer. DKN-01 was administered either as monotherapy or in combination with weekly paclitaxel at investigator's discretion. All patients underwent NGS testing prior to enrollment; tumor tissue was also tested for DKK1 expression by RNAscope pre-treatment and after cycle 1 if available. At least 50% of patients were required to have a Wnt signaling alteration either directly or tangentially. This publication reports results from the EC population overall and by DKK1-expression. RESULTS DKN-01 monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel was more effective in patients with high DKK1-expressing tumors compared to low-expressing tumors. DKN-01 monotherapy demonstrated an objective response rate [ORR] of 25.0% vs. 0%; disease control rate [DCR] of 62.5% vs. 6.7%; median progression-free survival [PFS] was 4.3 vs. 1.8 months, and overall survival [OS] was 11.0 vs. 8.2 months in DKK1-high vs DKK1-low patients. Similarly, DKN-01 in combination with paclitaxel demonstrated greater clinical activity in patients with DKK1-high tumors compared to DKK1-low tumors: DCR was 55% vs. 44%; median PFS was 5.4 vs. 1.8 months; and OS was 19.1 vs. 10.1 months. Wnt activating mutations correlated with higher DKK1 expression. DKN-01 was well tolerated as a monotherapy and in combination with paclitaxel. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, data demonstrates promising clinical activity of a well-tolerated drug, DKN-01, in EC patients with high tumoral DKK1 expression which frequently corresponded to the presence of a Wnt activating mutation. Future development will focus on using DKN-01 in DKK1-high EC patients in combination with immunotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE In SOLO1/GOG 3004 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01844986), maintenance therapy with the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib provided a sustained progression-free survival benefit in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 (BRCA) mutation. We report overall survival (OS) after a 7-year follow-up, a clinically relevant time point and the longest follow-up for any poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor in the first-line setting. METHODS This double-blind phase III trial randomly assigned patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA mutation in clinical response to platinum-based chemotherapy to maintenance olaparib (n = 260) or placebo (n = 131) for up to 2 years. A prespecified descriptive analysis of OS, a secondary end point, was conducted after a 7-year follow-up. RESULTS The median duration of treatment was 24.6 months with olaparib and 13.9 months with placebo, and the median follow-up was 88.9 and 87.4 months, respectively. The hazard ratio for OS was 0.55 (95% CI, 0.40 to 0.76; P = .0004 [P < .0001 required to declare statistical significance]). At 7 years, 67.0% of olaparib patients versus 46.5% of placebo patients were alive, and 45.3% versus 20.6%, respectively, were alive and had not received a first subsequent treatment (Kaplan-Meier estimates). The incidence of myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia remained low, and new primary malignancies remained balanced between treatment groups. CONCLUSION Results indicate a clinically meaningful, albeit not statistically significant according to prespecified criteria, improvement in OS with maintenance olaparib in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA mutation and support the use of maintenance olaparib to achieve long-term remission in this setting; the potential for cure may also be enhanced. No new safety signals were observed during long-term follow-up.

Abstract
Therapeutic options for recurrent adult granulosa cell tumors (AGCT) are limited. After examining the hormonal pathways involved in FOXL2-mutated granulosa cell tumor development, a novel treatment regimen was utilized for recurrent AGCT: a combination of an androgen receptor antagonist, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor agonist, and an aromatase inhibitor for hormonal blockade. In this case series, seven patients at our institution were treated with bicalutamide 50 mg orally once daily, Leuprolide acetate 7.5 mg intramuscular (IM) injection every 4 weeks, and a daily oral aromatase inhibitor. These patients had recurrent AGCT with androgen receptor positive tumors and had failed prior aromatase inhibitor therapy. All patients had undergone multiple surgical resections and many cycles of chemotherapy. Patients were monitored for toxicities and for response to treatment. Of the seven patients receiving the triple therapy, six saw clinical benefit. Two patients demonstrated a partial response and four patients had stable disease. One patient had progressive disease on the regimen. For the two patients who had a partial response to the triple therapy, there was strong expression of the androgen receptor (AR) noted on tumor immunohistochemistry. This drug combination was well-tolerated except for severe hot flashes in one patient. In conclusion, the triple therapy combination of an androgen receptor antagonist, aromatase inhibitor, and GnRH agonist demonstrated measurable responses in patients with recurrent AGCTs after multiple previous treatments. A prospective clinical trial is planned to further investigate these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We implemented a low-cost education initiative to improve the rate of same-day discharge following hysterectomy performed for malignancy and assessed feasibility and impact on resource utilization. METHODS Development and implementation of faculty, patient, clinical, and perioperative staff education regarding the goal of same-day discharge for patients undergoing robotic hysterectomy and staging by gynecologic oncologists was started in July 2019. Chart review of 103 patients prior to the intervention and 112 patients after the start of the intervention was completed. RESULTS The rate of same-day discharge increased from 5% to 32% following the low-cost process change initiative, and a total of approximately 682 inpatient care hours were saved per 31 patients. DISCUSSION The rate of same-day discharges after hysterectomy and staging performed by gynecologic oncologists can be safely increased with a simple educational intervention, which can save significant patient care resources.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION During Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan, an outbreak of combat-related invasive fungal wound infections (IFIs) emerged among casualties with dismounted blast trauma and became a priority issue for the Military Health System. METHODS In 2011, the Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study (TIDOS) team led the Department of Defense IFI outbreak investigation to describe characteristics of IFIs among combat casualties and provide recommendations related to management of the disease. To support the outbreak investigation, existing IFI definitions and classifications utilized for immunocompromised patients were modified for use in epidemiologic research in a trauma population. Following the conclusion of the outbreak investigation, multiple retrospective analyses using a population of 77 IFI patients (injured during June 2009 to August 2011) were conducted to evaluate IFI epidemiology, wound microbiology, and diagnostics to support refinement of Joint Trauma System (JTS) clinical practice guidelines. Following cessation of combat operations in Afghanistan, the TIDOS database was comprehensively reviewed to identify patients with laboratory evidence of a fungal infection and refine the IFI classification scheme to incorporate timing of laboratory fungal evidence and include categories that denote a high or low level of suspicion for IFI. The refined IFI classification scheme was utilized in a large-scale epidemiologic assessment of casualties injured over a 5.5-year period. RESULTS Among 720 combat casualties admitted to participating hospitals (2009-2014) who had histopathology and/or wound cultures collected, 94 (13%) met criteria for an IFI and 61 (8%) were classified as high suspicion of IFI. Risk factors for development of combat-related IFIs include sustaining a dismounted blast injury, experiencing a traumatic transfemoral amputation, and requiring resuscitation with large-volume (>20 units) blood transfusions. Moreover, TIDOS analyses demonstrated the adverse impact of IFIs on wound healing, particularly with order Mucorales. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay to identify filamentous fungi and support earlier IFI diagnosis was also assessed using archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue specimens. Although the PCR-based assay had high specificity (99%), there was low sensitivity (63%); however, sensitivity improved to 83% in tissues collected from sites with angioinvasion. Data obtained from the initial IFI outbreak investigation (37 IFI patients) and subsequent TIDOS analyses (77 IFI patients) supported development and refinement of a JTS clinical practice guideline for the management of IFIs in war wounds. Furthermore, a local clinical practice guideline to screen for early tissue-based evidence of IFIs among blast casualties at the Landstuhl Regional Medical Center was critically evaluated through a TIDOS investigation, providing additional clinical practice support. Through a collaboration with the Uniformed Services University Surgical Critical Care Initiative, findings from TIDOS analyses were used to support development of a clinical decision support tool to facilitate early risk stratification. CONCLUSIONS Combat-related IFIs are a highly morbid complication following severe blast trauma and remain a threat for future modern warfare. Our findings have supported JTS clinical recommendations, refined IFI classification, and confirmed the utility of PCR-based assays as a complement to histopathology and/or culture to promote early diagnosis. Analyses underway or planned will add to the knowledge base of IFI epidemiology, diagnostics, prevention, and management.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitor and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies are associated with a unique spectrum of complications termed immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The abdomen is the most frequent site of severe irAEs that require hospitalization with life-threatening consequences. Most abdominal irAEs such as enterocolitis, hepatitis, cholangiopathy, cholecystitis, pancreatitis, adrenalitis, and sarcoid-like reaction are initially detected on imaging such as ultrasonography (US), CT, MRI and fusion 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)-CT during routine surveillance of cancer therapy. Early recognition and diagnosis of irAEs and immediate management with cessation of immune modulator cancer therapy and institution of immunosuppressive therapy are necessary to avert morbidity and mortality. Diagnosis of irAEs is confirmed by tissue sampling or by follow-up imaging demonstrating resolution. Abdominal radiologists reviewing imaging on patients being treated with anti-cancer immunomodulators should be familiar with the imaging manifestations of irAEs.

Abstract
Background Background- Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is associated with fewer renal and bone toxicities than tenofovir disoproxil phosphate (TDF). Hence, most experts suggest switching to TAF. We examined factors associated with switching to TAF in the US Military HIV Natural History Study (NHS), a cohort of people living with HIV who have unrestricted access to care and medications. Methods Methods- The first formulation of TAF received FDA approval on 1 November 2015; hence, we included all NHS participants with visits between November 2015 and March 2019. Patient factors including race, gender, CD4 count, antiretroviral therapies (ART), viral load, HIV diagnosis era, presence of comorbidities (cancer, heart disease, dyslipidemia, kidney disease and obesity), were assessed for association with a switch to TAF with a logistic regression model. Results Results- Of the 1678 eligible participants, 1324 (63%) had received a TDF-based regimen. Participants who received a TDF-regimen were 94% male 44% African-American [AA], 39% Caucasians and 17% Hispanic. About half the participants who received TDF-based ART switched to a TAF-based regimen (n=682, 52%). Of the 425 (32%) participants receiving TDF/FTC co-formulated with efavirenz, 48% (n=206) switched to TAF. The proportions switching to TAF were higher in those receiving TDF/FTC co-formulated with rilpivirine [59%, n=90] or elvitegravir/cobicistat [68%, n=146]. The common ART regimens after the switch were: TAF co-formulated with elvitegravir/cobicistat (46%), rilpivirine (16%) or bictegravir (12%) and TAF/FTC combined with dolutegravir (15%). In an adjusted analysis, older participants, and participants receiving TDF/FTC in combination with efavirenz, dolutegravir, raltegravir, boosted protease inhibitors or a combination of boosted protease inhibitors and integrase inhibitors (other) were less likely to switch, table 1. Conclusion Conclusions- Despite the unrestricted access to care and ART in the NHS, only half of the participants switched to TAF. Participants on efavirenz-containing regimens were less likely to switch to a TAF-based regimen, possibly due to the lack of a co-formulated single tablet. These trends need to be followed and barriers to switching to TAF (both patient and provider) need examination.

Abstract
Risk behaviors associated with sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among people living with HIV (PLWH) have not been well characterized in the US military. We identified risk behaviors associated with a new STI in this population after the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." US Military HIV Natural History Study participants who completed the risk behavior questionnaire (RBQ) between 2014 and 2017 and had at least 1 year of follow-up were included (n = 1589). Logistic regression identified behaviors associated with incident STI in the year following RBQ completion. Overall, 18.9% acquired an STI and 52.7% reported condom use at last sexual encounter. Compared with those with no new sex partners, participants with between one and four or five or more new partners were 1.71 [1.25-2.35] and 6.12 [3.47-10.79] times more likely to get an STI, respectively. Individuals reporting low or medium/high perceived risk of STI were 1.83 [1.23-2.72] and 2.65 [1.70-4.15] times more likely to acquire a new STI than those reporting no perceived risk, respectively. Participants who preferred not to answer about sexual preference, number of new partners, or perceived STI risk were also more likely to acquire a new STI. Our study illustrates that despite regular access to health care and accurate perceptions of risk, rates of STI among PLWH remain high in the US military setting, as in others. Given the potential individual and public health consequences of STI coinfection after HIV, more work is needed to assess interventions aimed at sexual behavior change for PLWH.

Abstract
High-grade serous carcinoma, accounts for up to 70% of all ovarian cases. Furin, a proprotein convertase, is highly expressed in high-grade serous carcinoma of ovarian cancer patients, and its expression is even higher in tumor omentum than in normal omentum, the preferred site of ovarian cancer metastasis. The proteolytic actions of this cellular endoprotease helps the maturation of several important precursors of protein substrates and its levels increase the risk of several cancer. We show that furin activates the IGF1R/STAT3 signaling axis in ovarian cancer cells. Conversely, furin knockdown downregulated IGF1R-β and p-STAT3 (Tyr705) expression. Further, silencing furin reduced tumor cell migration and invasion in vitro and tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Collectively, our findings show that furin can be an effective therapeutic target for ovarian cancer prevention or treatment.

Abstract
The proposed classification, based on diagnostic certainty, provides a framework for determining initial empiric and subsequent targeted therapy. To evaluate a classification system to support clinical decisions for treatment of contaminated deep wounds at risk for an invasive fungal infection (IFI), we studied 246 US service members (413 wounds) injured in Afghanistan (2009–2014) who had laboratory evidence of fungal infection. A total of 143 wounds with persistent necrosis and laboratory evidence were classified as IFI; 120 wounds not meeting IFI criteria were classified as high suspicion (patients had localized infection signs/symptoms and had received antifungal medication for >10 days), and 150 were classified as low suspicion (failed to meet these criteria). IFI patients received more blood than other patients and had more severe injuries than patients in the low-suspicion group. Fungi of the order Mucorales were more frequently isolated from IFI (39%) and high-suspicion (21%) wounds than from low-suspicion (9%) wounds. Wounds that did not require immediate antifungal therapy lacked necrosis and localized signs/symptoms of infection and contained fungi from orders other than Mucorales.

Abstract
Trauma-related invasive fungal wound infections (IFIs) are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Early identification and treatment are critical. Traditional identification methods (e.g., fungal cultures and histopathology) can be delayed and insensitive. We assessed a PCR-based sequencing assay for rapid identification of filamentous fungi in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens obtained from combat casualties injured in Afghanistan. Blinded FFPE specimens from cases (specimens positive on histopathology) and controls (specimens negative on histopathology) were submitted for evaluation with a panfungal PCR. The internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region of the fungal ribosomal repeat was amplified and sequenced. The PCR results were compared with findings from histopathology and/or culture. If injury sites contributed multiple specimens, findings for the site were collapsed to the site level. We included 64 case subjects (contributing 95 sites) and 102 controls (contributing 118 sites). Compared to histopathology, panfungal PCR was specific (99%), but not as sensitive (63%); however, sensitivity improved to 83% in specimens from sites with angioinvasion. Panfungal PCR identified fungi of the order Mucorales in 33 of 44 sites with angioinvasion (75%), whereas fungal culture was positive in 20 of 44 sites (45%). Saksenaea spp. were the dominant fungi identified by PCR in specimens from angioinvasion sites (57%). Panfungal PCR is specific, albeit with lower sensitivity, and performs better at identifying fungi of the order Mucorales than culture. DNA sequencing offers significant promise for the rapid identification of fungal infection in trauma-related injuries, leading to more timely and accurate diagnoses.

Abstract
We examined risk factors for combat-related extremity wound infections (CEWI) among U.S. military patients injured in Iraq and Afghanistan (2009-2012). Patients with ≥1 combat-related, open extremity wound admitted to a participating U.S. hospital (≤7 days postinjury) were retrospectively assessed. The population was classified based upon most severe injury (amputation, open fracture without amputation, or open soft-tissue injury defined as non-fracture/non-amputation wounds). Among 1271 eligible patients, 395 (31%) patients had ≥1 amputation, 457 (36%) had open fractures, and 419 (33%) had open soft-tissue wounds as their most severe injury, respectively. Among patients with traumatic amputations, 100 (47%) developed a CEWI compared to 66 (14%) and 12 (3%) patients with open fractures and open soft-tissue wounds, respectively. In a Cox proportional hazard analysis restricted to CEWIs ≤30 days postinjury among the traumatic amputation and open fracture groups, sustaining an amputation (hazard ratio: 1.79; 95% confidence interval: 1.25-2.56), blood transfusion ≤24 hours postinjury, improvised explosive device blast, first documented shock index ≥0.80, and >4 injury sites were independently associated with CEWI risk. The presence of a non-extremity infection at least 4 days prior to a CEWI diagnosis was associated with lower CEWI risk, suggesting impact of recent exposure to directed antimicrobial therapy. Further assessment of early clinical management will help to elucidate risk factor contribution. The wound classification system provides a comprehensive approach in assessment of injury and clinical factors for the risk and outcomes of an extremity wound infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current dosing of intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy (IPFT) in adults with complicated parapneumonic effusion (CPE) / empyema is empiric, as dose-escalation trials have not previously been conducted. We hypothesized that LTI-01 (scuPA), which is relatively resistant to PA inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), would be well-tolerated. METHODS This was an open-label, dose-escalation trial of LTI-01 IPFT at 50,000-800,000 IU daily for up to 3 days in adults with loculated CPE/empyema and failed pleural drainage. The primary objective was to evaluate safety and tolerability, and secondary objectives included assessments of processing and bioactivity of scuPA in blood and pleural fluid (PF), and early efficacy. RESULTS LTI-01 was well tolerated with no bleeding, treatment-emergent adverse events or surgical referrals (n=14 subjects). uPA antigen increased in PFs at 3 hours after LTI-01 (p<0.01) but not in plasma. PF saturated active PAI-1, generated PAI-1-resistant bioactive complexes, increased PA and fibrinolytic activities and D-dimers. There was no systemic fibrinogenolysis, nor increments in plasma D-dimer. Decreased pleural opacities occurred in all but one subject. Both subjects receiving 800,000 IU required two doses to relieve pleural sepsis, with two other subjects similarly responding at lower doses. CONCLUSION LTI-01 IPFT was well-tolerated at these doses with no safety concerns. Bioactivity of LTI-01 IPFT was confirmed, limited to PFs where its processing simulated that previously reported in preclinical studies. Preliminary efficacy signals including reduction of pleural opacity were observed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most women with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer have a relapse within 3 years after standard treatment with surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy. The benefit of the oral poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib in relapsed disease has been well established, but the benefit of olaparib as maintenance therapy in newly diagnosed disease is uncertain. METHODS We conducted an international, randomized, double-blind, phase 3 trial to evaluate the efficacy of olaparib as maintenance therapy in patients with newly diagnosed advanced (International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage III or IV) high-grade serous or endometrioid ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian-tube cancer (or a combination thereof) with a mutation in BRCA1, BRCA2, or both ( BRCA1/2) who had a complete or partial clinical response after platinum-based chemotherapy. The patients were randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, to receive olaparib tablets (300 mg twice daily) or placebo. The primary end point was progression-free survival. RESULTS Of the 391 patients who underwent randomization, 260 were assigned to receive olaparib and 131 to receive placebo. A total of 388 patients had a centrally confirmed germline BRCA1/2 mutation, and 2 patients had a centrally confirmed somatic BRCA1/2 mutation. After a median follow-up of 41 months, the risk of disease progression or death was 70% lower with olaparib than with placebo (Kaplan-Meier estimate of the rate of freedom from disease progression and from death at 3 years, 60% vs. 27%; hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.30; 95% confidence interval, 0.23 to 0.41; P<0.001). Adverse events were consistent with the known toxic effects of olaparib. CONCLUSIONS The use of maintenance therapy with olaparib provided a substantial benefit with regard to progression-free survival among women with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA1/2 mutation, with a 70% lower risk of disease progression or death with olaparib than with placebo.

Abstract
Background Infectious complications related to deployment trauma significantly contribute to the morbidity and mortality of wounded service members. The Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study (TIDOS) collects data on US military personnel injured in Iraq and Afghanistan in an observational cohort study of infectious complications. Patients enrolled in TIDOS may also consent to follow-up through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). We present data from the first 337 TIDOS enrollees to receive VA healthcare. Methods Data were collected from the Department of Defense (DoD) Trauma Registry, TIDOS infectious disease module, DoD and VA electronic medical records, and telephone interview. Cox proportional hazard analysis was performed to identify predictors of post-discharge infections related to deployment trauma. Results Among the first 337 TIDOS enrollees who entered VA healthcare, 111 (33%) had 244 trauma-related infections during their initial trauma hospitalization (2.1 infections per 100 person-days). Following initial discharge, 127 (38%) enrollees had 239 trauma-related infections (170 during DoD follow-up and 69 during VA time). Skin and soft-tissue infections and osteomyelitis were predominant during and after the initial trauma hospitalization. In a multivariate model, a shorter time to development of a new infection following discharge was independently associated with injury severity score ≥10 and occurrence of ≥1 inpatient infection during initial trauma hospitalization. Conclusions Incident infections related to deployment trauma continue well after initial hospital discharge and into VA healthcare. Overall, 38% of enrolled patients developed a new trauma-related infection after their initial hospital discharge, with 29% occurring after the patient left military service.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study (TIDOS) cohort follows military personnel with deployment-related injuries in order to evaluate short- and long-term infectious complications. High rates of infectious complications have been observed in more than 30% of injured patients during initial hospitalization. We present data on infectious complications related to combat trauma after the initial period of hospitalization. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data related to patient care for military personnel injured during combat operations between June 2009 and May 2012 were collected. Follow-up data were captured from interviews with enrolled participants and review of electronic medical records. RESULTS Among 1,006 patients enrolled in the TIDOS cohort with follow-up data, 357 (35%) were diagnosed with one or more infection during their initial hospitalization, of whom 160 (45%) developed a trauma-related infection during follow-up (4.2 infections per 10,000 person-days). Patients with three or more infections during the initial hospitalization had a significantly higher rate of infections during the follow-up period compared with those with only one inpatient infection (incidence rate: 6.6 versus 3.1 per 10,000 days; p < 0.0001). There were 657 enrollees who did not have an infection during initial hospitalization, of whom 158 (24%) developed one during follow-up (incidence rate: 1.6 per 10,000 days). Overall, 318 (32%) enrolled patients developed an infection after hospital discharge (562 unique infections) with skin and soft-tissue infections being predominant (66%) followed by osteomyelitis (16%). Sustaining an amputation or open fracture, having an inpatient infection, and use of anti-pseudomonal penicillin (≥7 d) were independently associated with risk of an extremity wound infection during follow-up, whereas shorter hospitalization (15-30 d) was associated with a reduced risk. CONCLUSIONS Combat-injured patients have a high burden of infectious complications that continue long after the initial period of hospitalization with soft-tissue and osteomyelitis being predominant. Further research on the long-term impact and outcomes of combat-associated infection is needed.

Abstract
In 2008, a clinical practice guideline (CPG) was developed for the prevention of infections among combat casualties and was later revised in 2011. We evaluated utilization of antimicrobials within 48 hours following injury in the combat zone over a 5-year period (June 2009 through May 2014) with regard to number of regimens, type of antimicrobial, and adherence to the 2011 CPG. The study population consisted of 5,196 wounded military personnel. Open fractures and skin and soft-tissue injuries were the most frequent injuries. Closed injuries had the highest overall compliance (83%), whereas open fractures and maxillofacial injuries had significant improvement in compliance from 2009-2010 (34 and 50%, respectively) to 2013-2014 (73 and 76%, respectively; p < 0.05). Part of the improvement with open fractures was a significant reduction of expanded Gram-negative coverage (61% received it in 2009-2010 compared to 7% in 2013-2014; p < 0.001). Use of Gram-negative coverage with maxillofacial injuries also significantly declined (37-12%; p = 0.001). Being injured during 2011-2014 compared to 2009-2010 was associated with CPG compliance (p < 0.001), while high injury severity scores (≥10) and admission to the intensive care unit in Germany were associated with noncompliance (p < 0.001). Our analysis demonstrates an increasing trend toward CPG compliance with significant reduction of expanded Gram-negative coverage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, more than 52,000 U.S. military members were wounded in action. The battlefield mortality rate was lower than in past conflicts, however, those surviving often had complex soft tissue and bone injuries requiring multiple surgeries. This report describes the rates, types, and risks of infections complicating the care of combat casualties. PATIENTS AND METHODS Infection and microbiology data obtained from the Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study (TIDOS), a prospective observational study of infections complicating deployment-related injuries, were used to determine the proportion of infection, types, and associated organisms. Injury and surgical information were collected from the Department of Defense Trauma Registry. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards and logistic regression models were used to evaluate potential factors associated with infection. RESULTS From 2009-2012, 1,807 combat casualties were evacuated to U.S. TIDOS-participating hospitals. Among the 1,807 patients, the proportion of overall infections from time of injury through initial U.S. hospitalization was 34% with half being skin, soft tissue, or bone infections. Infected wounds most commonly grew Enterococcus faecium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter spp. or Escherichia coli. In the multivariable model, amputation, blood transfusions, intensive care unit admission, injury severity scores, mechanical ventilation, and mechanism of injury were associated with risk of infection. CONCLUSIONS One-third of combat casualties from Iraq and Afghanistan develop infections during their initial hospitalization. Amputations, blood transfusions, and overall injury severity are associated with risk of infection, whereas more easily modifiable factors such as early operative intervention or antibiotic administration are not.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess whether the addition of oncolytic reovirus (Reolysin®) to weekly paclitaxel prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) in the treatment of women with recurrent or persistent ovarian, tubal or primary peritoneal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian, tubal, or peritoneal carcinoma, measurable or detectable disease, and three or fewer prior regimens were randomly assigned to paclitaxel (80mg/m2 intravenously days 1, 8, and 15 every 4weeks) or the combination of paclitaxel (80mg/m2 intravenously days 1, 8, and 15) plus reovirus 3×1010TCID50/day intravenously on days 1-5, both every 4weeks until disease progression or toxicity. The primary end point was PFS. The study was designed with 80% power for a one-sided alternative at a 10% level of significance to detect a reduction in the hazard by 37.5%. RESULTS The study accrued 108 patients, 100 of whom were evaluable for toxicity. Median PFS was 4.3months for paclitaxel and 4.4months for paclitaxel plus reovirus (hazard ratio, 1.11; 90% two-sided CI, 0.78 to 1.59; one-sided P=0.687). The proportion responding (overall response rate) to paclitaxel was 20% among 45 patients with measurable disease receiving paclitaxel alone, and 17.4% among the 46 patients treated with the combination. The asymptotic relative probability of responding was 0.87 (90% CI, 0.42 to 1.79). Severe adverse events were more common in the combination regimen than in paclitaxel arm for severe neutropenia (grade≥4, 12% versus 0%), and severe respiratory adverse events (grade≥3, 25% versus 2%). No deaths were considered treatment related. CONCLUSION The addition of reovirus to weekly paclitaxel in the treatment of women with recurrent or persistent ovarian, tubal or peritoneal cancer did not sufficiently reduce the hazard of progression or death to warrant further investigation.

Abstract
The incorporation of unnatural amino acids (uAA) can introduce novel functional groups into proteins site-specifically, with important applications in basic sciences and protein engineering. However, uAA incorporation can impact protein expression and functional activity depending on its location within the protein-a process that is not yet completely understood and difficult to predict. Therefore, practical applications often necessitate a time-consuming optimization of uAA location by individual gene cloning, expressions, purification, and evaluations for each location tested. To address this limitation, we introduce a streamlined and versatile in vitro system to rapidly express and screen uAA-containing proteins without cumbersome cell culturing or purification procedures. We utilized this technology to simultaneously screen 24 different t4-lysozyme mutants with different uAA incorporation sites in a matter of hours, compared to weeks-long workflow of conventional methods. Screening data offered a mechanistic explanation to some effects of uAA incorporation on expression and activity. Despite these insights, rational prediction of such effects remained challenging, further confirming the value of a rapid screening approach. Biotechnol.

Abstract
The Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study began in June 2009 as combat operations were decreasing in Iraq and increasing in Afghanistan. Our analysis examines the rate of infections of wounded U.S. military personnel from operational theaters in Iraq and Afghanistan admitted to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center between June 2009 and December 2013 and transferred to a participating U.S. hospital. Infection risk factors were examined in a multivariate logistic regression analysis (expressed as odds ratios [OR]; 95% confidence intervals [CI]). The study population includes 524 wounded military personnel from Iraq and 4,766 from Afghanistan. The proportion of patients with at least one infection was 28% and 34% from the Iraq and Afghanistan theaters, respectively. The incidence density rate was 2.0 (per 100 person-days) for Iraq and 2.7 infections for Afghanistan. Independent risk factors included large-volume blood product transfusions (OR: 10.68; CI: 6.73-16.95), high Injury Severity Score (OR: 2.48; CI: 1.81-3.41), and improvised explosive device injury mechanism (OR: 1.84; CI: 1.35-2.49). Operational theater (OR: 1.32; CI: 0.87-1.99) was not a risk factor. The difference in infection rates between operational theaters is primarily a result of increased injury severity in Afghanistan from a higher proportion of blast-related trauma during the study period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in women with recurrent epithelial ovarian carcinoma to evaluate the efficacy and safety of motolimod-a Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) agonist that stimulates robust innate immune responses-combined with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD), a chemotherapeutic that induces immunogenic cell death. PATIENTS AND METHODS Women with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma were randomized 1 : 1 to receive PLD in combination with blinded motolimod or placebo. Randomization was stratified by platinum-free interval (≤6 versus >6-12 months) and Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) performance status (0 versus 1). Treatment cycles were repeated every 28 days until disease progression. RESULTS The addition of motolimod to PLD did not significantly improve overall survival (OS; log rank one-sided P = 0.923, HR = 1.22) or progression-free survival (PFS; log rank one-sided P = 0.943, HR = 1.21). The combination was well tolerated, with no synergistic or unexpected serious toxicity. Most patients experienced adverse events of fatigue, anemia, nausea, decreased white blood cells, and constipation. In pre-specified subgroup analyses, motolimod-treated patients who experienced injection site reactions (ISR) had a lower risk of death compared with those who did not experience ISR. Additionally, pre-treatment in vitro responses of immune biomarkers to TLR8 stimulation predicted OS outcomes in patients receiving motolimod on study. Immune score (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes; TIL), TLR8 single-nucleotide polymorphisms, mutational status in BRCA and other DNA repair genes, and autoantibody biomarkers did not correlate with OS or PFS. CONCLUSIONS The addition of motolimod to PLD did not improve clinical outcomes compared with placebo. However, subset analyses identified statistically significant differences in the OS of motolimod-treated patients on the basis of ISR and in vitro immune responses. Collectively, these data may provide important clues for identifying patients for treatment with immunomodulatory agents in novel combinations and/or delivery approaches.

Abstract
In a study of intrinsic motivation, the instructions to subjects varied the order of presentation of the reward and the choice to participate in a laboratory game. As predicted, the instructions offering subjects the reward prior to the choice to participate led to less intrinsic motivation than when the instructions offered the choice first and the reward second. The results suggest that offering a reward first increases the saliency of the controlling aspect of the reward, encouraging external attributions for participation. The contradictory findings of previous studies are reinterpreted in light of these results.

Abstract
Data from recent conflicts related to war wounds and obligate anaerobes are limited. We define the epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility of obligate anaerobes from Iraq and Afghanistan casualties (6/2009-12/2013), as well as their association with clinical outcomes. Susceptibility against eleven antibiotics (7 classes) was tested. Overall, 59 patients had 119 obligate anaerobes identified (83 were first isolates). Obligate anaerobes were isolated 7-13 days post-injury, primarily from lower extremity wounds (43%), and were largely Bacteroides spp. (42%) and Clostridium spp. (19%). Patients with pelvic wounds were more likely to have Bacteroides spp. and concomitant resistant gram-negative aerobes. Seventy-three percent of isolates were resistant to ≥1 antimicrobials. Bacteroides spp. demonstrated the most resistance (16% of first isolates). Patients with resistant isolates had similar outcomes to those with susceptible strains. Serial recovery of isolates occurred in 15% of patients and was significantly associated with isolation of Bacteroides spp., along with resistant gram-negative aerobes.

Abstract
In 2008, a clinical practice guideline (CPG) was developed for the prevention of infections among military personnel with combat-related injuries. Our analysis expands on a prior 6-month evaluation and assesses CPG adherence with respect to antimicrobial prophylaxis for U.S. combat casualties medically evacuated to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center over a 1-year period (June 2009 through May 2010), with an eventual goal of continuously monitoring CPG adherence and measuring outcomes as a function of compliance. We classified adherence to the CPG as receipt of recommended antimicrobials within 48 hours of injury. A total of 1106 military personnel eligible for CPG assessment were identified and 74% received antimicrobial prophylaxis. Overall, CPG compliance within 48 hours of injury was 75%. Lack of antimicrobial prophylaxis contributed 2 to 22% to noncompliance varying by injury category, whereas receipt of antibiotics other than preferred was 11 to 30%. For extremity injuries, antimicrobial prophylaxis adherence was 60 to 83%, whereas it was 80% for closed injuries and 68% for penetrating abdominal injuries. Overall, the results of our analysis suggest an ongoing need to improve adherence, monitor CPG compliance, and assess effectiveness.

Abstract
Among combat-injured patients from Iraq and Afghanistan, 5% had Candida spp. isolated from wounds. The crude mortality rate of 7.1% was similar to invasive mold infections, and may serve as a marker of those at higher risk for death. Background Penetrating wounds with environmental contamination are associated with a range of infectious complications, including fungus. This is the first study to examine the epidemiology, resistance patterns, and outcomes of Candida infections and colonization in United States military patients injured in Iraq and Afghanistan. Methods Clinical information associated with initial unique and serial Candida isolates collected from patients (June 2009–October 2013) through the Trauma Infectious Disease Outcomes Study (TIDOS) was evaluated. Susceptibilities were performed using Sensititre YeastOne (YO-9) plates and interpreted by Clinical Laboratory and Standards Institute (CLSI) and adjusted-European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) criteria. Results The analysis included 127 patients with 131 unique Candida isolates, of which 102 were Candida albicans and 29 non-albicans Candida spp. Overall, 99% of patients were male with a median age of 23 and an injury severity score of 22. Injuries were primarily due to blasts (77%) and sustained among personnel serving in Afghanistan (89%). There was a median of 7 days from injury to Candida isolation, and 74 isolates were associated with infection. In the multivariate analysis, non-albicans Candida spp were associated with prior antifungal exposure, blood isolates, and wound isolates (P < .01). Nonsusceptibility by CLSI and EUCAST criteria was associated with non-albicans Candida spp (P < .05). Patients with Candida isolation had a 7.1% mortality rate, compared with 1.4% from the overall TIDOS population. Conclusions Candida isolation from patients with penetrating war injuries may identify a population at higher risk for death. Prospective studies are needed to determine whether targeted antifungals and surgical management will affect this mortality rate.

Abstract
Considerable confusion exists among the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging user community as to how to determine whether a patient with a metal implanted device can be safely imaged in an MR imaging unit. Although there has been progress by the device manufacturers in specifying device behavior in a magnetic field, and some MR imaging manufacturers provide maps of the "spatial gradients," there remains significant confusion because of the lack of standardized terminology and reporting guidelines. The American College of Radiology, through its Subcommittee on MR Safety, has proposed standardized terminology that will contribute to greater safety and understanding for screening metal implants and/or devices prior to MR imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) are being used with increasing frequency to treat severe heart failure. Patients seek out informational resources when considering implantation. The primary study objective was to characterize the scope and quality of available LVAD educational materials. METHODS AND RESULTS In July 2013, we performed a cross-sectional search of Internet, print, and multimedia resources available to patients considering LVAD. Written materials <10 sentences, videos <2 minutes, and materials clearly directed to healthcare professionals were excluded. Seventy-seven materials met inclusion criteria. Potential benefits of LVAD therapy were discussed in all (n=77), whereas less often mentioned were risks (n=43), lifestyle considerations (n=29), surgical details (n=26), caregiver information (n=9), and hospice or palliative care (n=2). Of the 14 materials that recognized a decision or alternate treatment option, 7 used outdated statistics, 12 scored above an eighth grade reading comprehension level, and 12 met <50% of International Patient Decision Aid Standards criteria. In the survey participants rated all but one as biased toward accepting LVAD therapy. CONCLUSIONS Although many resources exist for patients considering an LVAD, the content is suboptimal. Benefits of LVADs are often presented in the absence of risks, alternative options, and caregiver considerations. Most materials use outdated statistics, are above the reading level of average Americans, and are biased toward accepting LVAD therapy. There is no tool that would qualify as a formal decision aid.
