Abstract
The present retrospective study investigated the clinical features and prognosis of secondary hematological malignancies (SHMs) in patients with sarcoma at Korea Cancer Center Hospital (Seoul, South Korea). Patients who had been diagnosed with SHMs after having received treatment for sarcoma between January 2000 and May 2023 were enrolled. Clinical data were collected from the patients' medical records. Clinical characteristics were analyzed, including SHM incidence, type and prognosis. Of 2,953 patients with sarcoma, 18 (0.6%) were diagnosed with SHMs. Their median age at the time of sarcoma diagnosis was 39.5 (range, 9-72) years, and 74% (n=14) of these patients were male. The histological features of sarcoma varied, with osteosarcoma diagnosed in nine patients (50%). All patients with sarcoma underwent surgical treatment, and 16 (88.8%) received chemotherapy. The most common type of SHMs was acute myeloid leukemia (n=6; 33.3%), followed by myelodysplastic syndrome (n=5; 27.7%). The median latency period between the sarcoma diagnosis and SHM identification was 30 (range, 11-121) months. A total of 13 (72.2%) patients received treatment for the SHM. The median overall survival after SHM diagnosis was 15.7 (range, 0.4-154.9) months. The incidence of SHMs in sarcoma in the present study was consistent with that reported previously. The presence of SHMs was associated with a poor patient prognosis, especially if treatment for SHMs was not administered.

Abstract
AIMS We investigated the association between diabetes status at admission and in-hospital outcomes in all hospitalized patients, regardless of the reason for admission. METHODS All individuals aged 20 years or older who were admitted to Yongin Severance Hospital between March 2020 and February 2022 were included in study. Subjects were categorized into three groups: non-DM, known DM, and newly diagnosed DM, based on medical history, anti-diabetic medications use, and laboratory test. Hospitalization-related outcomes, including in-hospital mortality and length of hospital stay, were compared between groups. RESULTS 33,166 participants were enrolled. At hospitalization, 6,572 (19.8 %) subjects were classified as known DM, and another 2,634 (7.9 %) subjects were classified as newly diagnosed DM. In-hospital mortality was highest in newly diagnosed DM (HR 1.89, 95% CI 1.58-2.26, p < 0.001) followed by known DM (HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.18-1.69, p < 0.001) compared to non-DM. Length of hospital stay was significantly longer in newly diagnosed DM (median [IQR] 9.0 [5.0-18.0],days) than known DM (median [IQR] 5.0 [3.0-10.0],days)(p < 0.001) and non-DM (median [IQR] 4.0 [2.0-7.0],days). After adjusting for multiple covariates, newly diagnosed diabetes was independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Diabetes status at admission was closely linked to hospitalization-related outcomes. Notably, individuals with newly diagnosed diabetes demonstrated a higher risk of in-hospital mortality and a prolonged length of hospital stay.

Abstract
PURPOSE Programmed death-1 blockade with pembrolizumab has shown promising activity in relapsed/refractory (R/R) extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (NKTCL), but studies are limited, with small patient numbers. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirteen institutes involved with the Consortium for Improving Survival of Lymphoma, a Korean lymphoma study group, collected the clinical data of 59 patients treated with pembrolizumab as salvage therapy between 2016 and 2022. RESULTS The median age of the patients was 60 years (range, 22 to 87 years), and 76.3% had advanced Ann Abor stage disease. Pembrolizumab was given to 35.6%, 40.7%, and 23.7% of the patients as second-, third-, and fourth- or higher-line chemotherapy, respectively. The overall response rate was 40.7%, with 28.8% having complete response. The estimated 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival rates for all patients were 21.5% and 28.7%, respectively; for responders, the rates were 53.0% and 60.7%, respectively. Although not statistically significant, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≥ 2 (hazard ratio [HR], 1.91; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 0.93 to 3.94; p=0.078) and stage III or IV disease (HR, 2.59; 95% CI, 0.96 to 6.96; p=0.060) were associated with a trend toward shorter PFS in multivariate analysis. Grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) were noted in 12 patients (20.3%); neutropenia (10.2%), fatigue (6.8%), and pneumonitis (5.1%) were most common AEs. CONCLUSION In conclusion, while pembrolizumab had a modest effect on patients with R/R NKTCL, it may be a useful salvage therapy for patients with localized disease and good performance status.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the effect of boost radiation therapy (RT) in addition to whole pelvis RT (WPRT) on treatment outcome and safety of cervical cancer patients following hysterectomy with close/positive resection margins (RM). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 51 patients with cervical cancer who received WPRT with or without boost-RT as adjuvant treatment between July 2006 and June 2022. Twenty patients (39.2%) were treated with WPRT-alone, and 31 (60.8%) received boost-RT after WPRT using brachytherapy or intensity-modulated RT. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 41 months. According to RT modality, the 4-year local control (LC) and locoregional control (LRC) rates of patients treated with WPRT-alone were 61% and 61%, respectively, whereas those in LC and LRC rates in patients who underwent WPRT with boost-RT were 93.2% and 75.3%, with p-values equal to 0.005 and 0.090, respectively. Seven patients (35.0%) had local recurrence in the WPRT-treated group compared to only two out of the 31 patients (6.5%) in the WPRT with boost-RT-treated counterparts (p = 0.025). Boost-RT was a significantly good prognostic factor for LC (p = 0.013) and LRC (p = 0.013). Boost-RT did not result in statistically-significant improvements in progression-free survival or overall survival. The acute and late toxicity rates were not significantly different between groups. CONCLUSION Boost RT following WPRT is a safe and effective treatment strategy to improve LC without increasing toxicity in patients with cervical cancer with close/positive RM after hysterectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatitis B virus reactivation (HBVr) is a well-known complication of systemic chemotherapy for particularly hematologic malignancies in HBV carriers. We performed a multicenter retrospective study to investigate the incidence and risk factors of HBVr in patients with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS We included 123 patients with HBsAg-positive MM who had received systemic therapy. The primary objective of the study was to evaluate the incidence of HBVr in patients with HBsAg-positive MM. RESULTS The median age was 59 years, and 72 patients were male. With a median follow-up duration of 41.4 months, there were 43 instances of HBVr in 35 patients (28.5%): 29 treatment-related HBVr occurred during 424 treatments. Treatments containing antiviral prophylaxis were associated with a significantly lower incidence of HBVr compared to those without (14.4% vs. 1.9%, P < 0.001). Moreover, treatment with cyclophosphamide (P = 0.002) and doxorubicin (P = 0.053) were risk factors for HBVr; stem cell transplantation was not associated with HBVr. There was no significant difference in overall survival between patients with and without HBVr (P = 0.753) and myeloma progression was the major cause of death. CONCLUSION Considering the low incidence of HBVr in patients who had received antiviral prophylaxis, HBsAg-positivity should not impede patients from receiving optimal antimyeloma treatment or participating in clinical trials.

Abstract
The lipid prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) mediates inflammatory pain by activating G protein-coupled receptors, including the prostaglandin E2 receptor 4 (EP4R). Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) reduce nociception by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, however, the disruption of upstream prostanoid biosynthesis can lead to pleiotropic effects including gastrointestinal bleeding and cardiac complications. In contrast, by acting downstream, EP4R antagonists may act specifically as anti-inflammatory agents and, to date, no selective EP4R antagonists have been approved for human use. In this work, seeking to diversify EP4R antagonist scaffolds, we computationally dock over 400 million compounds against an EP4R crystal structure and experimentally validate 71 highly ranked, de novo synthesized molecules. Further, we show how structure-based optimization of initial docking hits identifies a potent and selective antagonist with 16 nanomolar potency. Finally, we demonstrate favorable pharmacokinetics for the discovered compound as well as anti-allodynic and anti-inflammatory activity in several preclinical pain models in mice.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 131 I-rituximab in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular or mantle cell lymphoma. METHODS Twenty-four patients with relapsed or refractory follicular or mantle cell lymphoma were administered unlabeled rituximab (70 mg) immediately before receiving a therapeutic dose of 131 I-rituximab. Contrast-enhanced 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography was used a month later to assess tumor response. RESULTS This study enrolled 24 patients between June 2012 and 2022. Depending on how they responded to radioimmunotherapy (RIT), 131 I-rituximab was administered one to five times. Of the 24 patients, 9 achieved complete response after RIT and 8 achieved partial response. The median progression-free and overall survival was 5.9 and 37.9 months, respectively. During the follow-up period of 64.2 months, three patients were diagnosed with a secondary malignancy. Among treatment-related adverse events, hematologic toxicities were common, and grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia were reported in 66.6% of cases. CONCLUSION 131 I-rituximab has an effective and favorable safety profile in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma. This suggests that RIT may also be considered a treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE This phase II, open-label, multicenter study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of a rituximab intensification for the 1st cycle with every 21-day of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (R-CHOP-21) among patients with previously untreated advanced-stage or bulky diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-two patients with stage III/IV or bulky DLBCL from 21 institutions were administered 8 cycles of R-CHOP-21 with an additional one dose of rituximab intensification on day 0 of the 1st cycle (RR-CHOP). The primary endpoint was a complete response (CR) rate after 3 cycles of chemotherapy. RESULTS Among the 92 DLBCL patients assessed herein, the response rate after 3 cycles of chemotherapy was 88.0% (38.0% CR+50.0% partial response [PR]). After the completion of 8 cycles of chemotherapy, the overall response rate was observed for 68.4% (58.7% CR+9.8% PR). The 3-year progression-free survival rate was 64.0%, and the 3-year overall survival rate was 70.4%. Febrile neutropenia was one of the most frequent grade 3 adverse events (40.0%) and 5 treatment-related deaths occurred. Compared with the clinical outcomes of patients who received R-CHOP chemotherapy as a historical control, the interim CR rate was higher in male patients with RR-CHOP (20.5% vs. 48.8%, p=0.016). CONCLUSION Rituximab intensification on days 0 to the 1st cycle of the standard 8 cycles R-CHOP-21 for advanced DLBCL yielded favorable response rates after the 3 cycles of chemotherapy and acceptable toxicities, especially for male patients.

Abstract
Darinaparsin is a novel organic arsenical compound of dimethylated arsenic conjugated to glutathione, with antitumor activity and a mechanism of action markedly different from other available agents. This phase 2, nonrandomized, single-arm, open-label study evaluated the efficacy and safety of intravenous darinaparsin (300 mg/m2 over 1 hour, once daily for 5 consecutive days, per 21-day cycle) and its pharmacokinetics at multiple doses in 65 Asian patients with relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). The primary end point was the overall response rate (ORR). The ORR based on central assessment was 19.3% (90% confidence interval, 11.2-29.9), which was significantly higher than the predefined threshold of 10% (P = .024). The ORR was 16.2% in patients with PTCL-not otherwise specified and 29.4% in patients with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. Tumor size decreased in 62.3% of patients. Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were observed in 98.5% of patients. Grade ≥3 TEAEs with an incidence rate of ≥5% included anemia (15.4%), thrombocytopenia (13.8%), neutropenia (12.3%), leukopenia (9.2%), lymphopenia (9.2%), and hypertension (6.2%). Darinaparsin is effective and well tolerated, with TEAEs that were clinically acceptable and manageable with symptomatic treatment and dose reductions. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02653976.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant treatment is recommended for large GISTs due to their friability and risk of extensive operations; however, studies on the indications and long-term results of this approach are lacking. METHODS Patients with large (≥ 10 cm) gastric GISTs were enrolled from multiple centers in Korea and Japan after a pathologic confirmation of c-KIT ( +) GISTs. Imatinib (400 mg/d) was given for 6-9 months preoperatively, and R0 resection was intended. Postoperative imatinib was given for at least 12 months and recommended for 3 years. RESULTS A total of 56 patients were enrolled in this study, with 53 patients receiving imatinib treatment at least once and 48 patients undergoing R0 resection. The 5-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 94.3% and 61.6%, respectively. Even patients with stable disease by RECIST criteria responded well to preoperative imatinib treatment and could undergo R0 resection, with most being evaluated as partial response by CHOI criteria. The optimal reduction in tumor size was achieved with preoperative imatinib treatment for 24 weeks or more. No resumption of imatinib treatment was identified as an independent prognostic factor for recurrence after R0 resection. No additional size criteria for a higher risk of recurrence were identified in this cohort with a size of 10 cm or more. CONCLUSIONS Neoadjuvant imatinib treatment is an effective treatment option for gastric GISTs 10 cm or larger. Postoperative imatinib treatment is recommended even after R0 resection to minimize recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated the characteristics of recurrence pattern and survival of patients with non-endometrioid endometrial cancer (NEEC) and attempted to identify prognostic and treatment factors affecting disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of these patients. METHODS Fifty-seven patients with histologically confirmed International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IA-IVA NEEC from February 2003 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The 5‑year DFS and OS rates of the total cohort were 50.6% and 56.1%, respectively. Recurrence occurred in 28 patients (49.1%) during follow-up, and the most common recurrence pattern was distant metastasis (DM; 78.6% of total recurrences). The occurrence of relapse significantly reduced 5‑year OS (recurrence group vs. non-recurrence group: 12.5% vs. 100%; p < 0.001). In univariate analysis, adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) group showed significantly higher 5‑year DFS (56.7% vs. 37.9%; p = 0.04), local recurrence-free survival (91.6% vs. 50.5%; p = 0.01), and regional recurrence-free survival (88.2% vs. 56.5%; p < 0.01) than the non-RT group. In multivariate analysis, advanced FIGO stage was identified as a negative prognostic factor for DFS and OS. Lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI) and adjuvant RT were independent prognostic factors for DFS. CONCLUSION The most common recurrence pattern observed in patients with NEEC was DM. FIGO stage and LVSI were identified as prognostic factors for survival, and RT was identified as a therapeutic modality that could increase DFS. To improve the OS of patients with NEEC, the addition of effective chemotherapy that can reduce DM may be important.

Abstract
Introduction Upfront autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been recommended for patients who are newly diagnosed with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL), and CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone), an anthracycline-based chemotherapy has been the frontline chemotherapy for PTCL. However, it is not clear whether anthracycline-based chemotherapies such as CHOP could be standard induction therapy for PTCL. Methods We conducted a randomized phase II study to compare CHOP with fractionated ifosfamide, carboplatin, etoposide, and dexamethasone (ICED) for patients eligible for ASCT. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) and secondary endpoints included objective response rate, overall survival (OS), and safety profiles. Results Patients were randomized into either CHOP (n = 69) or ICED (n = 66), and the characteristics of both arms were not different. PTCL-not otherwise specified (NOS, n = 60) and angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL, n = 53) were dominant. The objective response rate was not different between CHOP (59.4%) and ICED (56.1%), and the 3-year PFS was not different between CHOP (36.7%) and ICED (33.1%). In AITL patients, CHOP was favored over ICED whereas ICED was associated with more cytopenia and reduced dose intensity. Patients who received upfront ASCT after achieving complete response to CHOP or ICED showed 80% of 3-year OS. Discussion In summary, our study showed no therapeutic difference between CHOP and ICED in terms of response and PFS. Thus, CHOP might remain the reference regimen especially for AITL based on its better outcome in AITL, and upfront ASCT could be recommended as a consolidation of complete response in patients with PTCL.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This prospective study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of preemptive antiviral therapy with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) for HBsAg-positive patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma receiving rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) chemotherapy. METHODS We enrolled 73 patients from 20 institutions. The primary end point was the absolute risk of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatitis during preemptive TDF therapy and for 24 weeks after withdrawal from TDF. Hepatitis was defined as a more than 3-fold increase in serum alanine aminotransferase from baseline or an alanine aminotransferase level of ≥100 U/L. HBV-related hepatitis was defined as hepatitis with an increase in serum HBV-DNA to >10 times that of the pre-exacerbation baseline or an absolute increase of ≥20,000 IU/mL compared with the baseline. RESULTS No patient developed HBV reactivation or HBV-related hepatitis during preemptive antiviral therapy (until 48 weeks after completion of R-CHOP chemotherapy) with TDF. All adverse events were grade 1 or 2. HBV reactivation was reported in 17 (23.3%) patients. All HBV reactivation was developed at a median of 90 days after withdrawal from TDF (range, 37-214 days). Six (8.2%) patients developed HBV-related hepatitis at a median of 88 days after withdrawal from TDF (range, 37-183 days). DISCUSSION Preemptive TDF therapy in HBsAg-positive patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma receiving R-CHOP chemotherapy was safe and effective for preventing HBV-related hepatitis. However, a long-term maintenance strategy of preemptive TDF therapy should be recommended because of the relatively high rate of HBV-related hepatitis after withdrawal from TDF ( ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT02354846).

Abstract
Radiotherapy (RT) is an essential treatment for patients with high-grade gliomas. however, a consensus on the target area of RT has not yet been achieved. In this study, we aimed to analyze progression-free survival (PFS), recurrence patterns, and toxicity in patients who received reduced volume intensity-modulated radiotherapy with simultaneous integrated boost (rvSIB-IMRT). In addition, we attempted to identify prognostic factors for recurrence. Twenty patients with high-grade gliomas who received rvSIB-IMRT between July 2011 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. For rvSIB-IMRT, clinical target volume 1/2 was set at a 5 to 10 mm margin on each gross tumor volume (GTV) 1 (resection cavity and enhanced lesion) and GTV2 (high-signal lesion of T2/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery). RT doses were prescribed to 60 Gy/30 fractions (fxs) for planning target volume (PTV)1 and 51 to 54 Gy/30 fxs for PTV2. The median PFS and overall survival of the total cohorts were 10.6 and 13.6 months, respectively. Among the 12 relapsed patients, central, in-field, and marginal recurrences were identified in 8 (66.7%), 2 (16.7%), and 1 patient (8.3%), respectively. Distant recurrence was identified in 3 patients. Gross total resection (GTR) and high Ki-67 index (>27.4%), and subventricular involvement (SVI) were identified as significant factors for PFS in the multivariate analysis. During the follow up, 4 patients showed pseudoprogression and 1 patient showed radiation necrosis. The rvSIB-IMRT for high-grade gliomas resulted in comparable PFS and tolerable toxicity. Most recurrences were central/in-field (10 cases of 12, 83.4%). GTR, high Ki-67 index (>27.4%), and SVI were significant factors for recurrence.

Abstract
Purpose Although the overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients is increasing with improved detection and therapies, so is the risk of breast cancer patients developing subsequent malignancies. We investigated the OS of breast cancer survivors according to sites of second primary malignancies (SPM). The OS of the second primary hematologic malignancy (SPHM) was then compared with that of metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients diagnosed with primary breast cancer between 1998 and 2019. Only those with SPM were eligible for analysis. First, the OS of patients with SPM diagnosed as the first event after the diagnosis of breast cancer was analyzed. Next, the OS of patients with SPHM, with or without breast cancer relapse, was compared with that of patients with MBC, matched using the propensity score. Results Patients diagnosed with SPM without breast cancer relapse as the first event had a significantly better OS than did patients with MBC, but the OS of those with SPHM as the first event did not differ significantly from that of patients with MBC (hazard ratio [HR], 1.558; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.856-2.839; P = 0.147). The OS of patients with SPHM with or without breast cancer relapse was worse than that of the MBC group after propensity score matching (HR, 1.954; 95% CI, 1.045-3.654; P = 0.036). Conclusion Prognosis of SPM diagnosed as the first event was statistically better than that of MBC, except in case of SPHM. Patients with SPHM, with or without MBC, showed poor OS before and after propensity score matching.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Treatment options for most patients with recurrent cervical cancer within the previously irradiated field are limited. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility and safety of re-irradiation using intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for patients with cervical cancer who experienced intrapelvic recurrence. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 22 patients with recurrent cervical cancer who were treated with re-irradiation for intrapelvic recurrence using IMRT between July 2006 and July 2020. The irradiation dose and volume were determined based on the range considered safe for the tumor size, location, and previous irradiation dose. Results: The median follow-up period was 15 months (range: 3-120) and the overall response rate was 63.6%. Of the symptomatic patients, 90% experienced symptom relief after treatment. The 1- and 2-year local progression-free survival (LPFS) rates were 36.8% and 30.7%, respectively, whereas the 1- and 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 68.2% and 25.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that the interval between irradiations and gross tumor volume (GTV) were significant prognostic factors for LPFS. The response to re-irradiation showed borderline statistical significance for LPFS. The GTV and response to re-irradiation were also independent prognostic factors for OS. Grade 3 late toxicities were observed in 4 (18.2%) of the 22 patients. Recto- or vesico-vaginal fistula occurred in four patients. The irradiation dose was associated with fistula formation with borderline significance. Conclusions: Re-irradiation using IMRT is a safe and effective treatment strategy for patients with recurrent cervical cancer who previously received RT. Interval between irradiations, tumor size, response to re-irradiation, and radiation dose were the main factors affecting efficacy and safety.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the initial treatment response and short-term mortality of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) in cirrhotic patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared with those without HCC. A total of 245 patients with liver cirrhosis diagnosed with SBP between January 2004 and December 2020 were included. Of these, 107 (43.7%) were diagnosed with HCC. Overall, the rates of initial treatment failure, 7-day and 30-day mortality were 91 (37.1%), 42 (17.1%), and 89 (36.3%), respectively. While the baseline CTP score, MELD score, culture-positive rate, and rates of antibiotic resistance did not differ between both groups, patients with HCC had a higher rate of initial treatment failure than those without HCC patients (52.3% vs. 25.4%, P < 0.001). Similarly, 30-day mortality was also significantly higher in patients with HCC (53.3% vs. 23.2%, P < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, HCC, renal impairment, CTP grade C, and antibiotic resistance were independent factors for initial treatment failure. Furthermore, HCC, hepatic encephalopathy, MELD score, and initial treatment failure were independent risk factors for 30-day mortality, with statistically significant poor survival outcomes in patients with HCC (P < 0.001). In conclusion, HCC is an independent risk factor for initial treatment failure and high short-term mortality in patients with cirrhosis with SBP. It has been suggested that more attentive therapeutic strategies are required to improve the prognosis of patients with HCC and SBP.

Abstract
The NTSR1 neurotensin receptor (NTSR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) found in the brain and peripheral tissues with neurotensin (NTS) being its endogenous peptide ligand. In the brain, NTS modulates dopamine neuronal activity, induces opioid-independent analgesia, and regulates food intake. Recent studies indicate that biasing NTSR1 toward β-arrestin signaling can attenuate the actions of psychostimulants and other drugs of abuse. Here, we provide the cryoEM structures of NTSR1 ternary complexes with heterotrimeric Gq and GoA with and without the brain-penetrant small-molecule SBI-553. In functional studies, we discovered that SBI-553 displays complex allosteric actions exemplified by negative allosteric modulation for G proteins that are Gα subunit selective and positive allosteric modulation and agonism for β-arrestin translocation at NTSR1. Detailed structural analysis of the allosteric binding site illuminated the structural determinants for biased allosteric modulation of SBI-553 on NTSR1.

Abstract
The hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 2 (HCA2) agonist niacin has been used as treatment for dyslipidemia for several decades albeit with skin flushing as a common side-effect in treated individuals. Extensive efforts have been made to identify HCA2 targeting lipid lowering agents with fewer adverse effects, despite little being known about the molecular basis of HCA2 mediated signalling. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the HCA2-Gi signalling complex with the potent agonist MK-6892, along with crystal structures of HCA2 in inactive state. These structures, together with comprehensive pharmacological analysis, reveal the ligand binding mode and activation and signalling mechanisms of HCA2. This study elucidates the structural determinants essential for HCA2 mediated signalling and provides insights into ligand discovery for HCA2 and related receptors.

Abstract
"Genome-based precision feeding" is a concept that involves the application of customised diets to different genetic groups of cattle. We investigated the effects of the genomic estimated breeding value (gEBV) and dietary energy to protein ratio (DEP) on growth performance, carcass traits, and lipogenic gene expression in Hanwoo (Korean cattle) steers. Forty-four Hanwoo steers (BW = 636 kg, age = 26.9 months) were genotyped using the Illumina Bovine 50 K BeadChip. The gEBV was calculated using genomic best linear unbiased prediction. Animals were separated into high gEBV of marbling score or low-gMS groups based on the upper and lower 50% groupings of the reference population, respectively. Animals were assigned to one of four groups in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement: high gMS/high DEP (0.084 MJ/g), high gMS/low DEP (0.079 MJ/g), low gMS/high DEP, and low gMS/low DEP. Steers were fed concentrate with a high or low DEP for 31 weeks. The BW tended to be higher (0.05 < P < 0.1) in the high-gMS groups compared to the low-gMS groups at 0, 4, 8, 12, and 20 weeks. The average daily gain (ADG) tended to be lower (P = 0.08) in the high-gMS group than in the low-gMS group. Final BW and measured carcass weight (CW) were positively correlated with the gEBV of carcass weight (gCW). The DEP did not affect ADG. Neither the gMS nor the DEP affected the MS and beef quality grade. The intramuscular fat (IMF) content in the longissimus thoracis (LT) tended to be higher (P = 0.08) in the high-gMS groups than in the low-gMS groups. The mRNA levels of lipogenic acetyl-CoA carboxylase and fatty acid binding protein 4 genes in the LT were higher (P < 0.05) in the high-gMS group than in the low-gMS group. Overall, the IMF content tended to be affected by the gMS, and the genetic potential (i.e., gMS) was associated with the functional activity of lipogenic gene expression. The gCW was associated with the measured BW and CW. The results demonstrated that the gMS and the gCW may be used as early prediction indexes for meat quality and growth potential of beef cattle.

Abstract
Funding Acknowledgements
Type of funding sources: Private company. Main funding source(s): A consortium of six companies in Korea (Daiichi Sankyo, Boston Scientific, Terumo, Biotronik, Qualitech Korea, and Dio).
Background
Patients with coronary artery disease and impaired renal function are at higher risk for both bleeding and ischemic adverse events after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Purpose
We assessed the efficacy and safety of a prasugrel based de-escalation strategy in patients with impaired renal function.
Methods
We conducted a post-hoc analysis of the HOST-REDUCE-POLYTECH-ACS study. Patients with available estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) (n=2,311) were categorized into three groups. (high eGFR: ≥90 mL/min; intermediate eGFR: ≥60 and <90 mL/min; low eGFR: <60 mL/min). The endpoints were bleeding outcomes (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 2, or higher), ischemic outcomes (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stent thrombosis, repeat revascularization, and ischemic stroke), and net adverse clinical events (all cause death, BARC 2 or greater bleeding, MI, stent thrombosis, repeat revascularization, and ischemic stroke) at 1 year follow-up. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% Confidence interval (CI) were calculated from the multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. Covariates that were considered clinically meaningful were included. The probability risk ratio was obtained by dividing ischemic hazard function from the bleeding hazard function.
Results
With respect to net adverse clinical events, prasugrel de-escalation was beneficial regardless of baseline renal function (p for interaction = 0.508). The relative reduction in bleeding risk from prasugrel de-escalation was higher in the low eGFR group compared with that from both the intermediate and high eGFR groups (relative reduction: 64% [HR 0.36, 95% CI 0.15–0.83] vs. 50% [HR 0.50, 95% CI 0.28-0.90] and 52% [HR 0.48, 95% CI 0.21-1.13] for low, intermediate, and high eGFR groups, p for interaction=0.646). Ischemic risk from prasgurel de-escalation was not significant in all eGFR groups ([HR 1.18, 95% CI 0.47-2.98], [HR 0.95, 95% CI 0.53-1.69], and [HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.26-1.39)], respectively, p for interaction=0.119). The probability risk ratio was highest in low eGFR group (1.06 vs. 1.26 vs. 1.36, for high, intermediate, and low eGFR groups, respectively, p for trend<0.001), suggesting higher relative bleeding risk above ischemic risk. Within those randomized to the de-escalation strategy, the mean probability risk ratio was not significantly different according to renal function (0.89, vs. 0.84 vs. 0.80 respectively, p for trend = 0.053), which was in contrast to those randomized to the conventional strategy where the mean probability risk ratio increased significantly as renal function decreased (1.24 vs. 1.67 vs. 1.94 respectively, p for trend<0.001).
Conclusion
The beneficial effect of prasugrel-based de-escalation strategy was consistent regardless of the baseline renal function, which was mostly driven by a reduction in bleeding risk which was greatest in those with low eGFR.

Abstract
Purpose We conducted a nationwide, multicenter, prospective registry study for newly diagnosed patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) to better define the clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, survival outcomes, and the role of upfront autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in these patients. Materials and Methods Patients with PTCL receiving chemotherapy with curative intent were registered and prospectively monitored. All patients were pathologically diagnosed with PTCL. Results A total of 191 patients with PTCL were enrolled in this prospective registry study. PTCL, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) was the most common pathologic subtype (n=80, 41.9%), followed by angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL) (n=60, 31.4%). With a median follow-up duration of 3.9 years, the 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 39.5% and 60.4%, respectively. The role of upfront ASCT was evaluated in patients who were considered transplant-eligible (n=59). ASCT was performed as an upfront consolidative treatment in 32 (54.2%) of these patients. There were no significant differences in PFS and OS between the ASCT and non-ASCT groups for all patients (n=59) and for patients with PTCL-NOS (n=26). However, in patients with AITL, the ASCT group was associated with significantly better PFS than the non-ASCT group, although there was no significant difference in OS. Conclusion The current study demonstrated that the survival outcomes with the current treatment options remain poor for patients with PTCL-NOS. Upfront ASCT may provide a survival benefit for patients with AITL, but not PTCL-NOS.

Abstract
PURPOSE High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the standard management for relapsed or high-risk non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We reported the busulfan, melphalan, and etoposide (BuME) conditioning regimen was effective in patients with relapsed or high-risk NHL. Moreover, the busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (BuCE) conditioning regimen has been used widely in ASCT for NHL. Therefore, based on these encouraging results, this randomized phase II multicenter trial compared the outcomes of BuME and BuCE as conditioning therapies for ASCT in patients with NHL. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were randomly assigned to receive either BuME (n=36) or BuCE (n=39). The BuME regimen was comprised of busulfan (3.2 mg/kg/day, intravenously) administered on days -7, -6, and -5, etoposide (400 mg/m2 intravenously) on days -5 and -4, and melphalan (50 mg/m2/day intravenously) on days -3 and -2. The BuCE regimen was comprised of busulfan (3.2 mg/kg/day intravenously) on days -7, -6, and -5, etoposide (400 mg/m2/day intravenously) on days -5 and -4, and cyclophosphamide (50 mg/kg/day intravenously) on days -3 and -2. The primary endpoint was 2-year progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Seventy-five patients were enrolled. Eleven patients (30.5%) in the BuME group and 13 patients (33.3%) in the BuCE group had disease progression or died. The 2-year PFS rate was 65.4% in the BuME group and 60.6% in the BuCE group (p=0.746). There were no non-relapse mortalities within 100 days after transplantation. CONCLUSION There were no significant differences in PFS between the two groups. Therefore, busulfan-based conditioning regimens, BuME and BuCE, may be important treatment substitutes for the BCNU-containing regimens.

Abstract
PURPOSE Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common hematologic malignancy worldwide. Although substantial improvement has been achieved by the frontline rituximab-based chemoimmunotherapy, up to 40%-50% of patients will eventually have relapsed or refractory disease, whose prognosis is extremely dismal. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have carried out two prospective cohort studies that include over 1,500 DLBCL patients treated with rituximab plus CHOP (#NCT01202448 and #NCT02474550). In the current report, we describe the outcomes of refractory DLBCL patients. Patients were defined to have refractory DLBCL if they met one of the followings, not achieving at least partial response after 4 or more cycles of R-CHOP; not achieving at least partial response after 2 or more cycles of salvage therapy; progressive disease within 12 months after autologous stem cell transplantation. RESULTS Among 1,581 patients, a total of 260 patients met the criteria for the refractory disease after a median time to progression of 9.1 months. The objective response rate of salvage treatment was 26.4%, and the complete response rate was 9.6%. The median overall survival (OS) was 7.5 months (95% confidence interval, 6.4 to 8.6), and the 2-year survival rate was 22.1%±2.8%. The median OS for each refractory category was not significantly different (p=0.529). CONCLUSION In line with the previous studies, the outcomes of refractory DLBCL patients were extremely poor, which necessitates novel approaches for this population.

Abstract
The off-label use of racemic ketamine and the FDA approval of (S)-ketamine are promising developments for the treatment of depression. Nevertheless, racemic ketamine and (S)-ketamine are controlled substances with known abuse potential and their use is associated with undesirable side effects. For these reasons, research efforts have focused on identifying alternatives. One candidate is (2R,6R)-hydroxynorketamine ((2R,6R)-HNK), a ketamine metabolite that in preclinical models lacks the dissociative and abuse properties of ketamine while retaining its antidepressant-like behavioral efficacy. (2R,6R)-HNK's mechanism of action however is unclear. The main goals of this study were to perform an in-depth pharmacological characterization of (2R,6R)-HNK at known ketamine targets, to use target deconvolution approaches to discover novel proteins that bind to (2R,6R)-HNK, and to characterize the biodistribution and behavioral effects of (2R,6R)-HNK across several procedures related to substance use disorder liability. We found that unlike (S)- or (R)-ketamine, (2R,6R)-HNK did not directly bind to any known or proposed ketamine targets. Extensive screening and target deconvolution experiments at thousands of human proteins did not identify any other direct (2R,6R)-HNK-protein interactions. Biodistribution studies using radiolabeled (2R,6R)-HNK revealed non-selective brain regional enrichment, and no specific binding in any organ other than the liver. (2R,6R)-HNK was inactive in conditioned place preference, open-field locomotor activity, and intravenous self-administration procedures. Despite these negative findings, (2R,6R)-HNK produced a reduction in immobility time in the forced swim test and a small but significant increase in metabolic activity across a network of brain regions, and this metabolic signature differed from the brain metabolic profile induced by ketamine enantiomers. In sum, our results indicate that (2R,6R)-HNK does not share pharmacological or behavioral profile similarities with ketamine or its enantiomers. However, it could still be possible that both ketamine and (2R,6R)-HNK exert antidepressant-like efficacy through a common and previously unidentified mechanism. Given its pharmacological profile, we predict that (2R,6R)-HNK will exhibit a favorable safety profile in clinical trials, and we must wait for clinical studies to determine its antidepressant efficacy.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the prognostic value of pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT after consolidation therapy of 131I-rituximab in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who had acquired complete remission after receiving chemotherapy. Methods Patients who were diagnosed with DLBCL via histologic confirmation were retrospectively reviewed. All patients had achieved complete remission after 6 to 8 cycles of R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, and prednisolone) chemotherapy after which they underwent consolidation treatment with 131I-rituximab. 18F-FDG PET/CT scans were performed before R-CHOP for initial staging. The largest diameter of tumor, maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) were obtained from pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT scans. Receiver-operating characteristic curves analysis was introduced for assessing the optimal criteria. Kaplan-Meier curve survival analysis was performed to evaluate both relapse free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS). Results A total of 15 patients (12 males and 3 females) with a mean age of 56 (range, 30–73) years were enrolled. The median follow-up period of these patients was 73 months (range, 11–108 months). Four (27%) patients relapsed. Of them, three died during follow-up. Median values of the largest tumor size, highest SUVmax, MTV, and TLG were 5.3 cm (range, 2.0–16.4 cm), 20.2 (range, 11.1–67.4), 231.51 (range, 15–38.34), and 1277.95 (range, 238.37–10341.04), respectively. Patients with SUVmax less than or equal to 16.9 showed significantly worse RFS than patients with SUVmax greater than 16.9 (5-year RFS rate: 60% vs. 100%, p = 0.008). Patients with SUVmax less than or equal to 16.9 showed significantly worse OS than patients with SUVmax greater than 16.9 (5-year OS rate: 80% vs. 100% p = 0.042). Conclusion Higher SUVmax at pretreatment 18F-FDG PET/CT was associated with better relapse free survival and overall survival in DLBCL patients after consolidation therapy with 131I-rituximab. However, because this study has a small number of patients, a phase 3 study with a larger number of patients is needed for clinical application in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE Tumor motion is a major challenge in stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), causing excessive irradiation to compensate for this motion. Real-time tumor tracking with a magnetic resonance imaging-guided linear accelerator (MR-Linac) could address this problem. This study aimed to assess the effects and advantages of MR-Linac in SABR for the treatment of lung tumors. METHODS Overall, 41 patients with NSCLC treated with SABR using MR-Linac between March 2019 and December 2021 were included. For comparison, 40 patients treated with SABR using computed tomography-based modalities were also enrolled. The SABR dose ranged from 48 to 60 Gy in 3-5 fractions. The primary endpoint was a lower radiation volume compared to CT-based SABR. The secondary endpoint was the local control rate of SABR using the MR-Linac. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 19 months (range: 3-105 months). There was no significant difference in the gross tumor volume between the MR and CT groups (7.1 ± 9.3 cm3 vs 8.0 ± 6.8 cm3, p = 0.643), but the planning target volume was significantly smaller in the MR group (20.8 ± 18.8 cm3 vs 34.1 ± 22.9 cm3, p = 0.005). The 1-year local control rates for the MR and CT groups were 92.1 and 75.4%, respectively (p = 0.07), and the 1-year overall survival rates were 87.4 and 87.0%, respectively (p = 0.30). CONCLUSION Lung SABR with MR-Linac can reduce the radiation field without compromising the local control rate. Further follow-up is needed to assess the long-term effects.

Abstract
An array of triazolopyridines based on JNJ-46356479 (6) were synthesized as potential positron emission tomography radiotracers for metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2). The selected candidates 8-10 featured enhanced positive allosteric modulator (PAM) activity (20-fold max.) and mGluR2 agonist activity (25-fold max.) compared to compound 6 in the cAMP GloSensor assays. Radiolabeling of compounds 8 and 9 (mG2P026) was achieved via Cu-mediated radiofluorination with satisfactory radiochemical yield, >5% (non-decay-corrected); high molar activity, >180 GBq/μmol; and excellent radiochemical purity, >98%. Preliminary characterization of [18F]8 and [18F]9 in rats confirmed their excellent brain permeability and binding kinetics. Further evaluation of [18F]9 in a non-human primate confirmed its superior brain heterogeneity in mapping mGluR2 and higher affinity than [18F]6. Pretreatment with different classes of PAMs in rats and a primate led to similarly enhanced brain uptake of [18F]9. As a selective ligand, [18F]9 has the potential to be developed for translational studies.

Abstract
Nine pig farms were evaluated for the welfare quality in Korea using animal- and
environment-based parameters (particularly air quality parameters) during the
winter of 2013. The Welfare Quality® (WQ®)
protocol consists of 12 criteria within four principles. The
WQ® protocol classifies farms into four categories ranging
from ‘excellent’ to ‘not classified’. Each of these
criteria has specific measures for calculating scores. Calculations for the
welfare scores were conducted online using the calculation model in the
WQ® protocol. Environment-based parameters like
microclimate (i.e., temperature, relative humidity, air speed, and particulate
matter), bacteria (total airborne bacteria, airborne total coliform, and
airborne total Escherichia coli), concentration of gases
(carbon dioxide, ammonia, and hydrogen sulfide) were measured to investigate the
relationship between animal- and environment-based parameters. Correlations
between the results of animal- and environment-based parameters were estimated
using spearman correlation coefficient. The overall assessments found that five
out of nine farms were ‘acceptable’, and four farms were
‘enhanced’; no farm was ‘not classified’. The
average score for the four principles across the nine farms, in decreasing
order, were ‘good feeding’ (63.13 points) > ‘good
housing’ (59.26 points) > ‘good health’ (33.47 points)
> ‘appropriate behaviors’ (25.48 points). In the result of the
environment aspect, the relative humidity of farms 2 (93.4%), 3 (100%), and 9
(98%) was much higher than the recommended maximum relative humidity of 80%, and
four out of the nine farms had ammonia concentrations greater than 40 ppm.
Ammonia had negative correlations with ‘positive social behaviors’
and positive emotional states: content, enjoying, sociable, playful, lively,
happy and it had positive correlations with negative emotional states: aimless,
distressed. The concentration of carbon dioxide had negative correlations with
positive emotional states; calm, sociable, playful, happy and it had a positive
correlation with negative emotional state; aimless. Our results indicate that
the control of the environment for growing pigs can help improve their welfare,
particularly via good air quality (carbon dioxide, ammonia, hydrogen
sulfide).

Abstract
Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) is a therapeutic target for several neuropsychiatric disorders. An mGluR2 function in etiology could be unveiled by positron emission tomography (PET). In this regard, 5-(2-fluoro-4-[11C]methoxyphenyl)-2,2-dimethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrano[2,3-b]pyridine-7-carboxamide ([11C]13, [11C]mG2N001), a potent negative allosteric modulator (NAM), was developed to support this endeavor. [11C]13 was synthesized via the O-[11C]methylation of phenol 24 with a high molar activity of 212 ± 76 GBq/μmol (n = 5) and excellent radiochemical purity (>99%). PET imaging of [11C]13 in rats demonstrated its superior brain heterogeneity and reduced accumulation with pretreatment of mGluR2 NAMs, VU6001966 (9) and MNI-137 (26), the extent of which revealed a time-dependent drug effect of the blocking agents. In a nonhuman primate, [11C]13 selectively accumulated in mGluR2-rich regions and resulted in high-contrast brain images. Therefore, [11C]13 is a potential candidate for translational PET imaging of the mGluR2 function.

Abstract
Background The incidence of second primary lung cancer (SPLC) is increasing with longer survival rates from breast cancer. Despite of studies to suggest the mutual exclusivity of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and human epidermal growth receptor 2 (HER2) in several cancers, the effect of HER2 expression in breast cancer on EGFR mutations in SPLC is unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the association between HER2 expression and EGFR mutations. Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of breast cancer survivors diagnosed with SPLC after breast cancer treatment between 1997 and 2018. We investigated the association between HER2 expression in breast cancer and EGFR mutations in SPLC, specifically focusing on negative correlations by using logistic regression analysis. Results EGFR mutations in SPLC were detected in 19 of 38 patients. Analysis for HER2 revealed a statistically significant difference in the proportion of EGFR mutations between patients with SPLC and previous HER2 positive breast cancer (43.5%) and those with SPLC and previous HER2 negative breast cancer (90.0%; P=0.021). The ratio of EGFR mutations decreased with the degree of HER2 expression in patients with previous breast cancer (90.0%: for no HER2 expression, 62.5% for HER2 1+, 0.0% for HER2 2+, and 41.7% for HER2 3+; P=0.018). Multivariate logistic analyses revealed that EGFR mutations in SPLC were significantly associated with age [odds ratio (OR): 1.11, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.01-0.23, P=0.039] and HER2 positive status (OR: 0.04, 95% CI: 0.01-0.56, P=0.017). Conclusions This study suggests that the frequency of EGFR mutations in SPLC may be associated with low HER2 expression in previous breast cancer.

Abstract
Purpose: This regulatory post-marketing surveillance (PMS) study was performed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of regorafenib on Korean patients with colorectal cancer (CRC), gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a real-world clinical setting. Methods: This PMS was conducted as a multi-center, prospective, observational study at 34 centers in Korea from August 2013 to August 2019. The primary objective was to evaluate the safety of regorafenib in real-world practice, with the secondary objective to investigate its effectiveness, including its overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: In total, 301 patients were included in the analysis (254 patients with CRC, 14 patients with GIST, and 33 patients with HCC). The incidence rates of adverse events (AEs) were 85.0%, 78.6%, and 81.8% in patients with CRC, GIST, and HCC, respectively. The most frequent AE related to regorafenib in the three cancer types was palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome (PPES). The ORRs of patients with CRC, GIST, and HCC were 4.7%, 0%, and 41.4%, respectively. The median PFS and OS were 2.1 and 6.1 months for CRC, respectively; 9.2 and 16.4 months for GIST, respectively; and 5.5 months and not estimated (NE) for HCC, respectively. Patients who experienced a dose modification or discontinuation of regorafenib showed significantly shorter median PFS and OS (2.2 vs. 2.6 months, respectively, P = 0.0335 for PFS; 5.3 vs. 8.5 months, respectively, P = 0.0010 for OS). Conclusion: This PMS study, which is the largest surveillance study of CRC in Korea, found no newly identified safety concerns for patients who received regorafenib in the real-world setting. Additionally, the results of this study were consisted with those previously reported in phase III trials.

Abstract
Purpose Febrile neutropenia (FN) can cause suboptimal treatment and treatment-related mortality (TRM) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients treated with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (R-CHOP). Materials and Methods We conducted a prospective cohort study to evaluate the effectiveness of pegfilgrastim prophylaxis in DLBCL patients receiving R-CHOP, and we compared them with the PROCESS cohort (n=485). Results Since January 2015, 986 patients with DLBCL were enrolled. Pegfilgrastim was administered at least once in 930 patients (94.3%), covering 90.3% of all cycles. FN developed in 137 patients (13.9%) in this cohort (23.7% in the PROCESS cohort, p < 0.001), and 4.2% of all cycles (10.2% in the PROCESS cohort, p < 0.001). Dose delay was less common (≥ 3 days: 18.1% vs. 23.7%, p=0.015; ≥ 5 days: 12.0% vs. 18.3%, p=0.023) in this cohort than in the PROCESS cohort. The incidence of TRM (3.2% vs. 5.6%, p=0.047) and infection-related death (1.8% vs. 4.5%, p=0.004) was lower in this cohort than in the PROCESS cohort. The 4-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates of the two cohorts were not different (OS: 73.0% vs. 71.9%, p=0.545; PFS: 69.5% vs. 68.8%, p=0.616). However, in patients aged ≥ 75 years, the 4-year OS and PFS rates were higher in this cohort than in the PROCESS cohort (OS: 49.6% vs. 33.7%, p=0.032; PFS: 44.2% vs. 30.3% p=0.047). Conclusion Pegfilgrastim prophylaxis is effective in the prevention of FN and infection-related death in DLBCL patients receiving R-CHOP, and it also improves OS in patients aged ≥ 75 years.

Abstract
The MRGPRX family of receptors (MRGPRX1-4) is a family of mas-related G-protein-coupled receptors that have evolved relatively recently1. Of these, MRGPRX2 and MRGPRX4 are key physiological and pathological mediators of itch and related mast cell-mediated hypersensitivity reactions2-5. MRGPRX2 couples to both Gi and Gq in mast cells6. Here we describe agonist-stabilized structures of MRGPRX2 coupled to Gi1 and Gq in ternary complexes with the endogenous peptide cortistatin-14 and with a synthetic agonist probe, respectively, and the development of potent antagonist probes for MRGPRX2. We also describe a specific MRGPRX4 agonist and the structure of this agonist in a complex with MRGPRX4 and Gq. Together, these findings should accelerate the structure-guided discovery of therapeutic agents for pain, itch and mast cell-mediated hypersensitivity.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Various physiology-based indices have been proposed to predict adverse clinical events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), such as the sum of three vessel-fractional flow reserve (3v-FFR), and the functional SYNTAX score (fSS). However, these values could not fully reflect the anatomical factors, which remains as a barrier for clinical application of these indices.
Purpose
To propose a novel index which can reflect both anatomical and physiologic features in CAD patients, and evaluate the additional predictive value for cardiovascular adverse events compared to previous indices.
Methods
For an index which can reflect both anatomical and physiologic features, we proposed the FFR adjusted SYNTAX score (FaSs). The FaSs is calculated by adding the product of the SYNTAX score and `1-FFR', for all three major coronary arteries. Among the 1136 patients who enrolled at 3V FFR-FRIENDS study, we investigated 866 patients, after excluding those who had missing variables. The 3v-FFR, fSS and FaSs were calculated, derived from the baseline FFR and SYNTAX score. Patients were divided into two groups according to the median value of each index. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac events (MACE, a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction and ischemia-driven revascularization) at 2 years follow-up.
Results
Among the total population, MACE occurred in 35 (4.04%) patients. Using the median value in a multivariable COX regression model, only FaSs was associated with an increased risk of MACE, (Hazard Ratio [HR] 5.256, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.014–13.720), while 3v-FFR (HR 1.383, 95% CI 0.685–2.790) and fSS (HR 1.640, 95% CI 0.830–3.243) were not significantly associated with a higher risk of MACE. This was also observed in the Kaplan Meier survival curve analysis (log-rank p value: p<0.001 for FaSs, 0.153 for 3v-FFR, and 0.061 for fSS; Figure 1) The sensitivity and specificity of the FaSs was 85.7% and 51.6%, which was higher compared to the 3v-FFR (62.9% and 49.3%, respectively) and fSS (57.1% and 58.5%, respectively). When these indices were combined with clinical risk factors (age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, chronic renal failure, LVEF<40%), FaSs was superior compared with 3v-FFR and fSS assessed in regards of the predictive accuracy for MACE (Figure 2).
Conclusion
The FaSs, which is a novel index calculated by a formula using the SYNTAX score and FFR, showed a superior predictive value for MACE compared to previous indices. Our results confirm the importance of considering both anatomical and physiologic parameters in evaluating the patient's risk for cardiovascular adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone (Rd) are a standard treatment for older adults with multiple myeloma (MM). Lenalidomide monotherapy has rarely been evaluated for newly diagnosed transplant-ineligible MM patients. This multicenter phase II trial evaluated a response-adapted strategy for elderly patients with newly diagnosed MM without high-risk features. Patients were administered single-agent lenalidomide for the first 21 days of two 28-day cycles. Patients with progressive disease received Rd. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival using the uniform response assessment from the International Myeloma Working Group . Of the 34 enrolled patients, 28 were included in the efficacy analysis. The overall response rate (ORR, ≥ partial response [PR]) to single-agent lenalidomide or lenalidomide plus prednisone was 64.3%. Ten patients received Rd after disease progression, with an Rd ORR of 70%. The ORR of response-adapted lenalidomide-based therapy was 75%. After the median follow-up of 35.6 months, the median progression-free survival was 33.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 16.9-50.2), and the median overall survival was 51.8 months (95% CI, 22.0-81.6). The most common adverse event was neutropenia (46.7%), and 17 patients (56.7%) experienced infection including pneumonia. Response-adapted lenalidomide-based therapy was feasible in newly diagnosed, transplant-ineligible MM patients without high-risk features.

Abstract
We conducted a phase II clinical trial to develop an autologous EBV-specific T cell product (baltaleucel T) for advanced, relapsed ENKTL. Among 47 patients who provided whole blood starting material for manufacturing the product, 15 patients received a median of 4 doses of baltaleucel T. Thirty-two (68%) patients did not receive baltaleucel-T due to manufacturing failure, rapid disease progression, and death. Of the 15 patients, 10 patients had measurable disease at baseline (salvage cohort), and 5 patients had no disease at baseline assessment (adjuvant cohort). In the 15 patients, the median follow-up duration was 10.2 months (range 2.0-23.5 months), median progression-free survival (PFS) was 3.9 months, and the median overall survival (OS) was not reached. Patients in the salvage cohort achieved a 30% complete response (CR) and a 50% overall response rate (ORR). In the adjuvant cohort, disease progression was reported in three patients and two patients did not relapse during study follow-up. When we compared survival outcomes of seven responders and eight non-responders, the PFS (P = 0.001) and OS (P = 0.014) of responders proved statistically superior to that of non-responders. Baltaleucel-T was well tolerated. We have performed a phase II clinical trial of autologous EBV-specific T cell treatment (baltaleucel-T) in R/R ENKTL. Autologous EBV-specific T cells were well tolerated and demonstrated single-agent activity in R/R ENTKL.

Abstract
Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR) have been proposed to exhibit therapeutic potential by maximizing the analgesic properties of clinically used opioid drugs while limiting their adverse effects or risk of overdose as a result of using lower drug doses. We herein report in vitro and in vivo characterization of two small molecules from a chemical series of MOR PAMs that exhibit: (i) MOR PAM activity and receptor subtype selectivity in vitro, (ii) a differential potentiation of the antinociceptive effect of oxycodone, morphine, and methadone in mouse models of pain that roughly correlates with in vitro activity, and (iii) a lack of potentiation of adverse effects associated with opioid administration, such as somatic withdrawal, respiratory depression, and analgesic tolerance. This series of MOR PAMs holds promise for the development of adjuncts to opioid therapy to mitigate against overdose and opioid use disorders.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To investigate the incidence of urinary tract infection and analyse its risk factors among hospitalised patients with spinal cord injury. BACKGROUND While the incidence of urinary tract infection varies widely according to the healthcare setting and patients' clinical characteristics, formal reports are limited in quantity. There has been no consensus regarding the risk factors for urinary tract infection. DESIGN A retrospective descriptive study. METHODS Electronic medical records of 964 subjects between 2010-2017 were reviewed. Urinary tract infection status was examined to identify newly occurred cases. Data included demographic and clinical characteristics, hydration status and length of hospitalisation. The reporting of the study followed the EQUATOR Network's STROBE checklist. RESULTS Of the sample, 31.7% had urinary tract infection (95% confidence interval: 1.288 to 1.347, p < .001). Sex, completeness of injury, type of bladder emptying, detrusor function and urethral pressure were significant factors affecting urinary tract infection. Patients who were male and those with injury classifications A, B and C had higher risk of urinary tract infection. Patients with urinary or suprapubic indwelling catheters, as well as those with areflexic detrusor combined with normotonic urethral pressure or overactive detrusor combined with normotonic urethral pressure, showed higher risk. Length of hospitalisation in patients with urinary tract infection was greater than that in uninfected patients, which implies the importance of prevention of urinary tract infection. CONCLUSIONS Nurses should carefully assess risk factors to prevent urinary tract infection in patients with spinal cord injury in the acute and sub-acute stages of the disease trajectory and provide individualised nursing care. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE This study contributes evidence for up-to-date clinical nursing practice for the comprehensive management of urinary tract infection. This can lead to improvements in nursing care quality and patient outcomes, including length of hospitalisation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify the morphological characteristics of the acromion and subacromial bursal space after arthroscopic acromioplasty using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred patients who received arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and acromioplasty each received at least three MRI examinations (preoperative, first immediate postoperative, and second follow-up imaging between 8 months and 1 year postoperatively). Changes over time in the thickness and morphology of the postoperative acromion as well as the subacromial bursal space were assessed. Clinical and radiological parameters were also analyzed to identify any association with changes in acromial morphology. RESULTS Despite minimal acromial thinning observed at the first immediate postoperative state, the acromions showed significant thinning at the second postoperative MRI, with a mean reduction of 32%. Along with acromial thinning, an exaggerated concave contour of the acromial undersurface was observed in some patients. In the subacromial space, a loculated fluid collection developed in 91% of the patients at the second postoperative follow-up. No statistically significant association was noted between postoperative acromial thickness change and clinical or radiological factors (P value > 0.05). CONCLUSION A significant delayed reduction in acromial thickness within approximately 1 year of arthroscopic acromioplasty is thought to be a normal postoperative feature. The simultaneous collection of a loculated, cyst-like fluid in the subacromial bursal space may be an important associated factor of postoperative acromial thinning.

Abstract
PURPOSE Metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) has been implicated in various psychiatric and neurological disorders, such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease. We have previously developed [11C]7 as a PET radioligand for imaging mGluR2. Herein, [18F]JNJ-46356479 ([18F]8) was synthesized and characterized as the first 18F-labeled mGluR2 imaging ligand to enhance diagnostic approaches for mGluR2-related disorders. PROCEDURES JNJ-46356479 (8) was radiolabeled via the copper (I)-mediated radiofluorination of organoborane 9. In vivo PET imaging experiments with [18F]8 were conducted first in C57BL/6 J mice and Sprague-Dawley rats to obtain whole body biodistribution and brain uptake profile. Subsequent PET studies were done in a cynomolgus monkey (Macaca fascicularis) to investigate the uptake of [18F]8 in the brain, its metabolic stability, as well as pharmacokinetic properties. RESULTS JNJ-46356479 (8) exhibited excellent selectivity against other mGluRs. In vivo PET imaging studies showed reversible and specific binding characteristic of [18F]8 in rodents. In the non-human primate, [18F]8 displayed good in vivo metabolic stability, excellent brain permeability, fast and reversible kinetics with moderate heterogeneity across brain regions. Pre-treatment studies with compound 7 revealed time-dependent decrease of [18F]8 accumulation in mGluR2 rich regions based on SUV values with the highest decrease in the nucleus accumbens (18.7 ± 5.9%) followed by the cerebellum (18.0 ± 7.9%), the parietal cortex (16.9 ± 7.8%), and the hippocampus (16.8 ± 6.9%), similar to results obtained in the rat studies. However, the volume of distribution (VT) results derived from 2T4k model showed enhanced VT from a blocking study with compound 7. This is probably because of the potentiating effect of compound 7 as an mGluR2 PAM as well as related non-specific binding in the tissue data. CONCLUSIONS [18F]8 readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and demonstrates fast and reversible kinetics both in rodents and in a non-human primate. Further investigation of [18F]8 on its binding specificity would warrant translational study in human.

Abstract
Sn0.9Sb0.1O2/TiO2 (ATO/TiO2) heterostructure is a potential visible light photocatalysts that function via an inter-semiconductor hole-transport mechanism. Herein we selectively deposited Au, Ag, or Pt onto the ATO surface of ATO/TiO2 to investigate charge-trapping behaviors of the noble metals and their effects on photocatalytic performance. We observed that Pt deposition greatly enhanced the photocatalytic activity whereas effects of Au or Ag depositions were not significant. The result of spectroscopic analysis also indicates that Pt is the most effective in scavenging the electrons from the ATO CB. Particularly, Pt/ATO/TiO2 (ATO:TiO2 = 15:85 in weight) produced CO2 of 42 ppmv in 2 h, which is 16 times and 4.8 times that of bare ATO/TiO2 and nitrogen-doped TiO2, respectively. Pt deposition on the ATO seems to suppress two independent charge recombination pathways, that is, recombination of electron-hole pairs in ATO and electron transport from the ATO CB to TiO2 VB.

Abstract
Three benzimidazole derivatives (13-15) have been synthetized as potential positron emission tomography (PET) imaging ligands for mGluR2 in the brain. Of these compounds, 13 exhibits potent binding affinity (IC50 = 7.6 ± 0.9 nM), positive allosteric modulator (PAM) activity (EC50 = 51.2 nM), and excellent selectivity against other mGluR subtypes (>100-fold). [11C]13 was synthesized via O-[11C]methylation of its phenol precursor 25 with [11C]methyl iodide. The achieved radiochemical yield was 20 ± 2% (n = 10, decay-corrected) based on [11C]CO2 with a radiochemical purity of >98% and molar activity of 98 ± 30 GBq/μmol EOS. Ex vivo biodistribution studies revealed reversible accumulation of [11C]13 and hepatobiliary and urinary excretions. PET imaging studies in rats demonstrated that [11C]13 accumulated in the mGluR2-rich brain regions. Pre-administration of mGluR2-selective PAM, 17 reduced the brain uptake of [11C]13, indicating a selective binding. Therefore, [11C]13 is a potential PET imaging ligand for mGluR2 in different central nervous system-related conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although additive radical surgery is recommended for patients with non-curative endoscopic resection for early gastric cancer (EGC), lymph node (LN) metastasis or remnant tumor is detected in only about 10% of patients. Therefore, we aimed to identify patients who required surgery by identifying significant risk factors for LN metastasis and evaluate long-term outcomes in patients with non-curative endoscopic resection. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the database of Seoul National University Hospital to identify patients who underwent endoscopic resection for EGC from June 2005 to December 2016. RESULTS Three hundred and twenty-nine patients did not meet the criteria for curative resection after endoscopic resection. Among them, 140 patients underwent additional surgery and 171 patients refused surgery and regularly received follow-up. In the surgery group, LN metastasis was found in 12.1% of patients. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the rate of LN metastasis was significantly higher in patients with lymphatic invasion (LI) (odds ratio [OR] 5.84, p = 0.014) and venous invasion (VI) (OR 5.66, p = 0.006). We analyzed LN metastasis based on LI and VI in the surgical group. LN metastasis was significantly increased in the positive LI and VI groups compared with the negative LI and VI groups (OR 68.32; 95% confidence interval, 4.74-984.82; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Both LI and VI were significant predictors of LN metastasis. The risk of LN metastasis was augmented when both LI and VI were positive. Therefore, LI and VI should be evaluated separately in patients with non-curative endoscopic resection. Additive surgery should be recommended for patients with LI and/or VI.

Abstract
We compared the efficacy and toxicity of busulfan and melphalan (BUMEL) and those of high-dose melphalan (HDMEL) as conditioning regimens for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) through a propensity score-matched analysis. No significant difference in the complete response and overall response rate after ASCT was observed between BUMEL and HDMEL. After a median follow-up of 37.3 months in the BUMEL group and 50.8 months in the HDMEL group, the median progression-free survival was calculated to be 32.9 months and 25.2 months (p = 0.995). With respect to non-hematologic toxicities, infections were more frequently reported in the BUMEL group (p < 0.001). Three patients who received BUMEL developed veno-occlusive disease (VOD), and all of them recovered without administration of defibrotide. In conclusion, BUMEL is an effective alternative conditioning regimen in terms of efficacy, but attention should be paid to toxicities.

Treatment with intravenous busulfan, melphalan, and etoposide followed by autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma: a multicenter study from the consortium for improving survival of lymphoma.

Abstract
Several high-dose therapy (HDT) conditioning regimens have been used to treat non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), such as bis-chloroethylnitrosourea (BCNU)/etoposide/cytosine arabinoside/melphalan (BEAM), BCNU/etoposide/cytosine arabinoside/cyclophosphamide (BEAC), and cyclophosphamide/BCNU/etoposide (CBV). BCNU is an active drug in HDT of NHL, but the supply is limited in some countries, including Korea. Busulfan has been used in allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). This phase II study evaluated the efficacy of busulfan/melphalan/etoposide (BuME) as a conditioning regimen for HDT in relapsed or high-risk NHL. The regimen consisted of intravenous busulfan (3.2 mg/kg/day) on days -8, -7, and -6, etoposide (400 mg/m2 /day) on days -5 and -4, and melphalan (50 mg/m2 /day) on days -3 and -2. A total of 46 patients were included in the study, with 36 (78.3%) achieving a complete response after ASCT. The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates for all patients were 46.7% (95% CI, 31.8-60.4%) and 63.7% (95% CI, 47.7-76.0%), respectively. There was no development of veno-occlusive disease and no treatment-related deaths within 100 days after ASCT. These results indicate that a BuME regimen is well-tolerated and effective for patients with relapsed or high-risk NHL, and may be comparable to some previously used regimens. This regimen may be useful as a substitute for BCNU-containing regimens.

Abstract
Patients with transplant‐ineligible relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) have a short life expectancy, especially when they have failed both the proteasome inhibitor and immunomodulator therapies. This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of pomalidomide, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (PCd) in elderly patients with RRMM. This phase 2 clinical trial recruited 55 elderly patients with RRMM. The patients underwent a 28‐day treatment cycle: pomalidomide (4 mg/day on days 1‐21, administered orally) and cyclophosphamide (400 mg/day on days 1, 8, and 15; administered orally) plus dexamethasone. The median (range) age of the patients was 73.3 (64‐86) years, and 8 (14.5%) patients who were ≥ 80 years old. Eight (14.5%) and 31 (56.4%) patients exhibited stage III (revised international staging system) and frail status (simplified frailty scale), respectively. The overall response rate (ORR) and clinical benefit rate (CBR) of PCd therapy were 58.2% and 72.7%, respectively. The median PFS and median overall survival (OS) were 6.90 months (95% CI, 4.7‐9.0) and 18.48 months (95% CI, 9.4‐27.6), respectively. The incidence rate of grade ≥ 3 non‐hematological toxicities was 70.8%. In particular, the incidence rate of primary infection was 45.4%, including 21.8% for pneumonia, 9.0% for sepsis, and 14.6% for febrile neutropenia. In conclusion, PCd is an effective regimen for elderly patients with RRMM who had failed both bortezomib and lenalidomide treatments, but in whom the treatment‐associated infection is the main cause of morbidity and mortality.
