Abstract
OBJECTIVES Studies of public health reporting have only examined multiple episodes of the same communicable disease within an individual. We aimed to characterize Montreal residents with multiple reportable disease episodes from 1990 to 2012, while accounting for all types of reportable diseases. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS We performed an exploratory analysis using descriptive statistics, contingency tables, and logistic regression. RESULTS There were 157,839 individuals with at least one disease report and a total of 179,455 disease reports. The 9.8% of subjects with more than one episode accounted for 20.7% of all reported episodes. Among subjects with four or fewer episodes, 54.0% were women, while 74.3% of subjects with five or more episodes were men. Subjects with multiple episodes were more likely to be reported for sexually transmitted infections than were persons with a single episode [difference of proportions: 10.4% (95% CI: 10.0%-10.9%)] and to reside in the neighbourhood encompassing Montreal's gay village. CONCLUSIONS Individuals with multiple communicable disease reports place a large burden on public health officials. These results may help guide investigation and prevention efforts to reduce the number of excess episodes.

Abstract
We identified an MSH6 mutation (c.10C>T, p.Gln4*) causing Lynch syndrome (LS) in 11 French Canadian (FC) families from the Canadian province of Quebec. We aimed to investigate the molecular and clinical implications of this mutation among FC carriers and to assess its putative founder origin. We studied 11 probands and 27 family members. Additionally 6433 newborns, 187 colorectal cancer (CRC) cases, 381 endometrial cancer (EC) cases and 179 additional controls, all of them from Quebec, were used. Found in approximately 1 of 400 newborns, the mutation is one of the most common LS mutations described. We have found that this mutation confers a greater risk for EC than for CRC, both in the 11 studied families and in the unselected cases: EC [odds ratio (OR) = 7.5, p < 0.0001] and CRC (OR = 2.2, p = 0.46). Haplotype analyses showed that the mutation arose in a common ancestor, probably around 430-656 years ago, coinciding with the arrival of the first French settlers. Application of the results of this study could significantly improve the molecular testing and clinical management of LS families in Quebec.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Ageing leads to characteristic changes in the appearance of facial skin. Among these changes, we can distinguish the skin topographic cues (skin sagging and wrinkles), the dark spots and the dark circles around the eyes. Although skin changes are similar in Caucasian and Chinese faces, the age of occurrence and the severity of age-related features differ between the two populations. Little is known about how the ageing of skin influences the perception of female faces in Chinese women. The aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of the different age-related skin features to the perception of age and attractiveness in Chinese women. METHODS Facial images of Caucasian women and Chinese women in their 60s were manipulated separately to reduce the following skin features: (i) skin sagging and wrinkles, (ii) dark spots and (iii) dark circles. Finally, all signs were reduced simultaneously (iv). Female Chinese participants were asked to estimate the age difference between the modified and original images and evaluate the attractiveness of modified and original faces. RESULTS Chinese women perceived the Chinese faces as younger after the manipulation of dark spots than after the reduction in wrinkles/sagging, whereas they perceived the Caucasian faces as the youngest after the manipulation of wrinkles/sagging. Interestingly, Chinese women evaluated faces with reduced dark spots as being the most attractive whatever the origin of the face. The manipulation of dark circles contributed to making Caucasian and Chinese faces being perceived younger and more attractive than the original faces, although the effect was less pronounced than for the two other types of manipulation. CONCLUSION This is the first study to have examined the influence of various age-related skin features on the facial age and attractiveness perception of Chinese women. The results highlight different contributions of dark spots, sagging/wrinkles and dark circles to their perception of Chinese and Caucasian faces.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep lines are caused by individual's sleeping positions and should be differentiated from expression wrinkles. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to investigate possible risk factors for sleep lines on a sizeable sample of middle-aged Caucasian women. METHODS This study involved a sample of 542 French middle-aged women (44 to 70 years old) from Paris area. Three standardized facial photographs (face and profiles) were examined independently by two dermatologists allowing the identification of sleep lines and the evaluation of the severity of several facial skin features. Possible impacts of MC1R gene polymorphisms were tested using logistic regression models. RESULTS Sixty women (11%) had facial sleep lines and showed generally more than one sleep line. The sleep lines were often located on the forehead, along the nose, on the cheeks and under the eyes, and more rarely on the chin. As expected, the sleep lines were associated with age, and the women with sleep lines showed also more severe signs of skin ageing. After adjustment on possible confounders, the presence of two major diminished function variants of the MC1R gene was identified as a strong risk factor for sleep lines [adjusted odds ratios (AOR) (95% CI): 8.25 (2.62-25.97)]. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION The data in the literature are scarce and this study is the first to be conducted on a sizeable sample of women. Our results suggest that genetic variations of MC1R are important determinants of the development of sleep lines.

Abstract
Women receiving neoadjuvant systemic therapy for primary operable or inoperable breast cancer can potentially benefit in a number of ways, but the main advantage, which has been consistently demonstrated, is improved tumour resectability. Given the improvement in outcomes with the adjuvant use of trastuzumab in patients with early-stage breast cancer positive for the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (her2), questions have been raised about the use of trastuzumab in the neoadjuvant setting. The present paper reviews the currently available data and outlines suggestions from a panel of Canadian oncologists about the use of trastuzumab and other her2-targeted agents in the neoadjuvant setting. The panel focussed on the use of trastuzumab and other her2-targeted agents as neoadjuvant therapy in primary operable, locally advanced, and inflammatory breast cancer; and possible choices of chemotherapeutic regimens with trastuzumab.
The suggestions described here will continue to evolve as data from current and future trials with trastuzumab and other her2-targeted agents emerge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with null mutations in the filaggrin (FLG) gene. OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of FLG null mutations on biophysical properties and the molecular composition of the stratum corneum (SC) in healthy individuals and AD patients. METHODS A total of 196 French adults, including 97 with a history of mild to moderate AD, were genotyped for the three major European FLG mutations. Components of the natural moisturizing factor (NMF), lipids and water content in the SC were determined using Raman spectroscopy. In addition, trans-epidermal water loss, capacitance and pH of the SC were measured. RESULTS Stratum corneum concentrations of total NMF, water, ornithine and urocanic acid (UCA) were significantly lower in AD patients than in healthy controls. Null mutations of FLG were detected in 4% of controls and 10% of AD patients. FLG mutations were associated with increased SC levels of lactate, reduced concentrations of most other NMF components and higher disease severity in AD patients. In AD patients without FLG mutations, the content of NMF constituents decreased with increasing disease severity. The concomittant presence of low concentrations of histidine, alanine and either glycine or pyrrolidone-5-carboxylic acid (PCA) in the SC was associated with FLG mutations with 92% specificity. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest a low prevalence of FLG mutations in mild AD and support an important role for filaggrin in determining the physicochemical parameters of the SC. The combined measurement of several filaggrin breakdown products in the SC may be useful to specifically predict the presence of FLG mutations.

Abstract
Breast cancer positive for HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor 2) is associated with a poor prognosis for patients with both early-stage and metastatic breast cancer. Trastuzumab has been shown to be effective and is now considered the standard of care for early-stage patients with HER2-positive breast cancer. In that population, trastuzumab has been studied in six randomized clinical trials. Overall, use of this agent leads to a significant reduction in risk of disease recurrence and improvement in overall survival. Despite the strong evidence for the use of trastuzumab in managing HER2-positive early breast cancer (EBC), a number of clinical controversies remain. The authors of this paper undertook a review of the available scientific literature on adjuvant trastuzumab to produce practical considerations from Canadian oncologists. The panel focused their discussion on five key areas: Management of node-negative disease with tumours 1 cm or smaller in size. Management of HER2-positive EBC across the spectrum of the disease (that is, nodal and steroid hormone receptor status, tumour size) Timing of trastuzumab therapy with chemotherapy for early-stage disease: concurrent or sequential. Treatment duration of trastuzumab for EBC. The role of non-anthracycline trastuzumab-based regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to assess the association between melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) variants and the severity of facial skin photoaging. METHODS The study population comprised 530 French middle-aged women between 44 and 70 years. A trained dermatologist graded the severity of facial skin photoaging from photographs using Larnier's global scale. Logistic regressions were performed to assess the influence of MC1R polymorphism on severe photoaging (grades 1-3 vs. 4-6), with adjustment for possible confounders (demographic and phenotypic data, and sun exposure intensity). RESULTS Overall, 35% of the women were wild-type homozygotes, 49% had one variant, 15% had two variants, and 1% had at least one rare variant. After adjustment for possible confounders, the presence of two major diminished function variants was found to be a risk factor for photoaging (adjusted odds ratio=5.61; 95% confidence interval [1.43-21.96]). DISCUSSION Our results suggest that genetic variations of MC1R are important determinants for severe photoaging.

Abstract
545 Background: Patients (pts) with MCRC refractory/resistant to Irinotecan and Oxaliplatin have a poor prognosis. Sunitinib is an oral TKI that selectively inhibits the VEGFR 1, 2, 3, PDGFR and FLT3, CSF-1R, RET. Phase II studies with single agent sunitinib in patients with MCRC did not demonstrate a meaningful ORR but showed acceptable safety profile and warranted further study. Methods: We conducted a phase II escalating dose of sunitinib (S) and capecitabine (C) to assess the efficacy of this oral treatment given on a 2 wks every 3 wks schedule, (level 0, S: 37,5 mg, C: 2,000mg/m2, level +1, S: 50 mg, C: 2,000 mg/m2, level +2, S: 50 mg, C: 2,500 mg/m2 and level -1:S: 25 mg, C: 1,500 mg/m2. Treatment was initiated at level 0 and increased at level +1 and +2 at cycle 3 and 5 if no grade 2/3 toxicity was observed. Between 02.2009 and 06.2010, 15 pts previously exposed to oxaliplatin/irinotecan/bevazizumab were enrolled, all of them had progressive disease at the time of study entry. Primary objective was ORR. Treatment was given until PD or unacceptable toxicity. Results: Pts characteristics were: sex: 12M/3F, median age: 65 years [41-75], primary tumors: colon: 13, rectum: 2, ECOG PS 0/1: 8/7, median nb of metastatic sites: 3, KRAS status: WT/MT/Unknown: 1/9/5. Escalating to level +1:53%, level +2: 7%. Median nb of cycles received/pt: 5. All pts were evaluable for toxicity (tox): SAEs: 40%, any tox. grade 1/2/3(%): 93/60/ 40.

Median PFS: 137 days [95%CI: 112-162], median OS: 291 days [95%CI: 99-482]. Conclusions: In this heavily pretreated patients, sunitinib in combination with capecitabine appears feasible, with acceptable toxicity. 47% of patients had a confirmed stable disease. Although no objective response was observed, the high level of stable disease may suggest a role of this combination for maintenance therapy. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developing and updating high-quality guidelines requires substantial time and resources. To reduce duplication of effort and enhance efficiency, we developed a process for guideline adaptation and assessed initial perceptions of its feasibility and usefulness. METHODS Based on preliminary developments and empirical studies, a series of meetings with guideline experts were organised to define a process for guideline adaptation (ADAPTE) and to develop a manual and a toolkit made available on a website (http://www.adapte.org). Potential users, guideline developers and implementers, were invited to register and to complete a questionnaire evaluating their perception about the proposed process. RESULTS The ADAPTE process consists of three phases (set-up, adaptation, finalisation), 9 modules and 24 steps. The adaptation phase involves identifying specific clinical questions, searching for, retrieving and assessing available guidelines, and preparing the draft adapted guideline. Among 330 registered individuals (46 countries), 144 completed the questionnaire. A majority found the ADAPTE process clear (78%), comprehensive (69%) and feasible (60%), and the manual useful (79%). However, 21% found the ADAPTE process complex. 44% feared that they will not find appropriate and high-quality source guidelines. DISCUSSION A comprehensive framework for guideline adaptation has been developed to meet the challenges of timely guideline development and implementation. The ADAPTE process generated important interest among guideline developers and implementers. The majority perceived the ADAPTE process to be feasible, useful and leading to improved methodological rigour and guideline quality. However, some de novo development might be needed if no high quality guideline exists for a given topic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Melasma is a frequent cause of consultations at dermatology departments by dark-skinned patients in Tunisia. OBJECTIVE To investigate factors that influence melasma severity in a large Tunisian population. METHODS A total of 197 patients (188 women and 9 men), who attended Tunis Military Hospital for a consultation were included prospectively from August 2005 to August 2006. Disease severity was estimated using the Melasma Area and Severity Index (MASI). Aggravating factors were investigated using multiple logistic regressions. RESULTS Of the women included, 14% presented phototype III, 45% phototype IV and 41% phototype V; 76% presented a centrofacial melasma phenotype, 23% a malar and 1% a mandibular phenotype. About 60% developed melasma before thirty. Sun exposure was reported as a triggering factor by 51% of women and as an aggravating factor by 84%. Pregnancy was reported as an aggravating factor by 51% of women who had been pregnant, and oral contraceptive use reported by 38% of women exposed to oral contraceptives. The risk of severe melasma was about three times higher for women with age at onset under 30, phototype V and major lifetime sun exposure and about 8 times higher for women exposed to oral contraceptives. CONCLUSION This study identifies a number of factors associated with the severity of melasma. Further epidemiological studies in this type of population, in particular, to investigate triggering factors, are justified by the aesthetic damage caused by melasma in dark-skinned patients, lack of efficacy of existing treatments, non-compliance with photoprotection recommendations and the challenge of treatment.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy is a dose-limiting side effect that leads to suboptimal cancer treatment and diminished quality of life. The mode of taxane neurotoxicity is unclear, but may be through stabilization of microtubules and induction of spindle checkpoint, leading to cell cycle arrest at G2/M. Fanconi Anemia (FA) genes, including FANCD2, and FANCA, appear to be involved in G2/M phase checkpoint maintenance as well as spindle checkpoint in response to internal and external signals, such as taxane treatment. Thus, we hypothesized that variants in FA genes could impact severity of taxane-induced neuropathies.Methods: Using DNA extracted from blood collected from 893 breast cancer patients participating in a trial evaluating metronomic dosing of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and paclitaxel (S0221), we genotyped for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that represent all of the variability across FANCA (44 SNPs) and FANCD2 (24 SNPs) in all race/ethnicity groups, as well as a panel of ancestry informative markers to control for potential population stratification, using Illumina GoldenGate platform. SNPs with minor allele frequency (MAF) less than 0.10 and those out of Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) proportions (p<0.001) were removed from analyses. Ordinal regression was used to test for allelic and haplotypic association with grade 3 or 4 toxicities relative to 0, 1, and 2 toxicities, adjusting for age, genetic admixture index and treatment arm. To adjust for multiple testing, permutation analyses were performed on both single SNP and haplotype models.Results: Eighteen SNPs in FANCD2 and 38 SNPs in FANCA passed MAF and HWE proportion requirements. For FANCD2, 4 SNPs spanning 67.5 Kb (rs7648104, rs2272125 [coding SNP], rs6786638 and rs644215), were significantly associated with taxane-induced neuropathy (p<0.001) after controlling for multiple testing, with each SNP resulting in approximately a twofold increase in odds of severe taxane-induced neuropathy. Haplotype estimation showed that all 18 SNPs comprise a single haplotype. Two major (>1% frequency) haplotypes were found. The frequencies of the risk haplotype in cases (patients with grade 3 or 4 neuropathy) and controls (patients with ≤ grade 2 neuropathy) were 0.25 and 0.15, respectively. Ordinal regression analyses were highly significant (p<0.0005); patients with at least one copy of the risk haplotype had more than a twofold increased risk of grade 3 or 4 taxane-induced neuropathy (OR=2.2, 95% CI 1.44, 3.44). For FANCA, no SNPs or haplotypes were significantly associated with grade 3 or 4 neurotoxicity, either prior to or after correction for multiple testing.Conclusions: These results indicate that the Fanconi-Anemia pathway may be important for neurological sensitivity to taxanes, and that genotypic markers might be able to be used to identify patients at increased risk for severe taxane-induced neuropathy. Further studies will elucidate potential associations with survival outcomes.

Abstract
The role of targeted therapies in the treatment of women with breast cancer has been rapidly evolving. Trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody against the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), was the first HER2-targeted therapy that clearly demonstrated a significant clinical benefit for women with HER2-overexpressing metastatic breast cancer (mbc). However, in recent years it has become increasingly apparent that, when trastuzumab is used in the first-line setting in combination with chemotherapy, most women eventually develop progressive disease. Determining the treatment options available to women who have progressed while on trastuzumab therapy has been hampered by a paucity of high-quality published data. In addition, with the standard use of trastuzumab in the adjuvant setting (for eligible HER2-positive patients), the role of anti-HER2 agents for patients who experience a breast cancer relapse has become a clinically relevant question. This manuscript reviews current available data and outlines suggestions from a panel of Canadian oncologists about the use of trastuzumab and other HER2-targeted agents in two key mbc indications:Treatment for women with HER2-positive mbc progressing on trastuzumab (that is, treatment beyond progression)Treatment for women with HER2-positive mbc recurring following adjuvant trastuzumab (that is, re-treatment)The suggestions set out here will continue to evolve as data and future trials with trastuzumab and other HER2-targeted agents emerge.

Abstract
e17564 Background: In 1998, the province of Quebec adopted its cancer control program (CP). Its goal was to establish a hierarchical and integrated cancer network of interdisciplinary teams. In 2004, a team evaluation process was initiated by the Direction de la lutte contre le cancer (ministry of health) to help implement this program. Methods: The evaluation consisted of completion of a matrix by the requesting team, a visit by a multidisciplinary group of experts and a report card. Three levels of expertise were assessed: core (all), regional (regional hospitals), and supraregional (tumor specific/complex situations). The matrix was based on the fundamental orientations of the CP, thus setting the framework for patient centered care. The conformity indicators were mainly structural and process oriented. In order to be evaluated for the subsequent mandates, teams had to conform to the core mandate. Those who did not succeed had one year to reapply. Mandates are for 4 years. Results: Teams were able to comply with most of the elements of the evaluation matrix. Sessions for clarification and coaching about this new interdisciplinary approach were necessary and helpful. A total of 153 visits were done:70 for core, 8 for regional and 75 for supraregional mandates respectively. Major health institutions such as university hospitals applied for multiple supraregional team designation. In all, 130 teams had their designation confirmed. This process highlighted some common weaknesses such as the lack of use of data for quality control. Conclusions: Acceptance of this hierarchical cancer care model was facilitated by the fact that it was in line with the integrated health care network of Quebec. The evaluation process has had an impact on the way cancer care is delivered in Quebec. This initial phase has helped implement an interdisciplinary patient centered model of care in line with the CP. Participation of different experts has also helped foster knowledge transfer and appropriation of the process. Impact on patient care and satisfaction remains to be assessed. An initial patient's questionnaire has been completed in 2008 and will serve as a control to future surveys. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
4077 Background: Anti-VEGF or EGFR inhibitors demonstrated clinical activity in combination with chemotherapy (CT) in mCRC. The DREAM trial compares, after an induction CT of 6 cy of FOLFOX-B or XELOX-B, a maintenance with B ± E. We report here a pre-planned safety analysis of induction (I) and maintenance (M) phase for the first 200 patients. Methods: Patients (pts) with untreated mCRC were randomly assigned to 2 arms (I): mFOLFOX+B (n=100), or mXELOX+B (n=100). mFOLFOX-B: LV 400 mg/m2, Oxaliplatin (ox) 100 mg/m2, B 5 mg/kg d1, 5FU ci 2.4g/m2 46h, q2w, mXELOX-B: Ox 100 mg/m2 d1, capecitabine 2.5 g/m2 d1–7, B 5mg/kg, q2w. To date, 117 pts with a disease control after 6 cy have had a 2nd randomisation (M): B alone (7.5 mg/kg q3w, n=56) or B+E 150 mg/d (n=61) until PD. Results: Pts characteristics were: sex: 124M/76F, median age: 62.4 years (26–80), primary tumors: colon 152, rectum 53, synchronous metastases: 150 pts, > 1 metastase site: 115, PS 0/1: 134/66, Alk. Ph.>UNL: 87 pts, and LDH>UNL: 88pts. For I, 92 pts in mFOLFOX-B and 93 in XELOX-B were evaluable for toxicity (tox). Tox (%) for mFOLFOX-B/XELOX-B were: any toxicity grade (gr) 3 or 4: 21/30; neutropenia gr 3 6/1, gr 4 0/2; febrile neutropenia gr 3 1/1, gr 4 0/1; thrombopenia gr 3 0/1, gr 4 0/2; anemia gr 2 8/15, gr 3 2/1; nausea gr 2 17/15, gr 3 4/6; vomiting gr 2 10/12, gr 3 2/5; mucositis gr 2 6/6, gr 3 0/4; diarrhea gr 2 8/12, gr 3 5/20, gr 4 0/1; neuropathy gr 2 23/17 gr 3 3/1; HFS gr 2 0/7, gr 3 0/2; hypertension gr 2 2/3, gr 3 1/0; proteinuria gr 2 1/5; SAEs 14/25. For M, 56 pts in B and 61 pts in B+E were evaluable. Tox (% B/B+E) were: neutropenia gr 2 0/3; thrombopenia gr 2 2/0; nausea gr 2 2/2, gr 3 2/0; vomiting gr 3 2/0; mucositis gr 2 2/3; diarrhea gr 2 0/6, gr 3 2/6; skin tox gr 1 9/31, gr 2 0/38, gr 3 0/16, gr 4 0/2; proteinuria gr 2 5/5; hypertension gr 1 9/15, gr 2 3/8, gr 3 3/0. Conclusions: This interim safety analysis demonstrated that induction with mFOLFOX-B or XELOX-B as well as maintenance with B or B + E appears to be well-tolerated, without unexpected side effects. The DREAM study is ongoing, with a prolonged induction phase of 6 months (3 mo with ox then 3 mo with fluoropyrimidines-B) before randomisation for maintenance therapy. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Today's classifications of healthy skin are predominantly based on a very limited number of skin characteristics, such as skin oiliness or susceptibility to sun exposure. The aim of the present analysis was to set up a global classification of healthy facial skin, using mathematical models. This classification is based on clinical, biophysical skin characteristics and self-reported information related to the skin, as well as the results of a theoretical skin classification assessed separately for the frontal and the malar zones of the face. In order to maximize the predictive power of the models with a minimum of variables, the Partial Least Square (PLS) discriminant analysis method was used. The resulting PLS components were subjected to clustering analyses to identify the plausible number of clusters and to group the individuals according to their proximities. Using this approach, four PLS components could be constructed and six clusters were found relevant. So, from the 36 hypothetical combinations of the theoretical skin types classification, we tended to a strengthened six classes proposal. Our data suggest that the association of the PLS discriminant analysis and the clustering methods leads to a valid and simple way to classify healthy human skin and represents a potentially useful tool for cosmetic and dermatological research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The variation of skin surface morphological indicators according to age has not been frequently studied. The aim of this work was to establish French Caucasian and Japanese reference ranges of these indicators according to age. METHODS Two studies were performed simultaneously in Paris and Sendai on 356 Caucasian and 120 Japanese healthy women aged from 20 to 80 years. Skin replicas were obtained from the volar forearm and analysed by interferometry. This analysis yielded 16 morphological indicators. Reference ranges according to age were established using the statistical methodology defined by Royston. RESULTS/DISCUSSION Reference ranges were found for 15 out of the 16 parameters for the French women as well as for the Japanese women. The models' truthfulness will have to be confirmed using new samples, larger if possible. Moreover, non-parametric methods will be used in order to compare the results provided by these approaches.

Abstract
10627 Background: Anthracyclines (A) are key elements in adjuvant and metastatic chemotherapy regimens for breast cancer. Pre-exposure limits the utilization of A in advanced disease due to cumulative cardiotoxicity. PLD (Caelyx/Doxil) has equivalent activity to conventional doxorubicin in MBC. However PLD has reduced toxicity, including significantly less cardiotoxicity. Combinations of A+C are the backbone of many adjuvant therapies, thus C represents a logical drug to combine with PLD. Methods: MBC patients with measurable disease who completed anthracycline containing adjuvant therapy > 12 months ago were entered in a multi-center single arm phase II trial. They received PLD 35mg/m2 + cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. This study was powered to demonstrate an objective response rate > 25%. Results: Seventy three patients were enrolled. Prior adjuvant therapy included: AC (37%), CEF/FEC (28%), AC-T (15%), AT (7%), EC (7%). The median cumulative dose of prior A were 240mg/m2 and 580mg/m2 for doxorubicin or epirubicin, respectively. Median time since adjuvant chemotherapy was 4.4 years (1–14). Patients received a median of 6 cycles (2–10) of PLD + C. Major toxicities were; grade 3/4 neutropenia (7.5%), asymptomatic > 10% declines in LVEF (9%) (reversible upon discontinuation of PLD), grade 3/4 hand foot syndrome (6%). Other toxicities were uncommon and usually did not require discontinuation. The objective response rate (ORR) was 38% (4% CR and 34% PR), with an additional 32% having stable disease > 6 months for a clinical benefit of 70% (CB). ORR was similar for patients who had received adjuvant taxanes. Kaplan-Meyer estimated median time to progression was 31.5 weeks (23% progression free). Conclusions: The combination of PLD + C every 3 weeks in patients who have completed adjuvant anthracycline chemotherapy after more than one year prior is well tolerated and has a clinical benefit rate of 70%. This finding is similar to other commonly employed chemotherapeutic regimens for MBC and suggests that re-treatment with a non-cardiotoxic anthracycline following previous anthracycline therapy may be a reasonable therapeutic option for some patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to examine the frequency of self-assessed facial skin sensitivity and its different patterns, and the relationship with gender and sun sensitivity in a general adult population. METHODS A standardized 11-item questionnaire investigating reactions experienced during the past year was developed. The questions explored different patterns of skin sensitivity: pattern I (blushing related to vascular reactivity), pattern II (skin reactions to certain environmental conditions), pattern III (skin reactions after substance contact), and for women pattern IV ('breakout of spots' related to menstrual cycle). Additional items were addressed for women and men, including sun sensitivity. The questionnaire was administered to a large middle-aged population involved in the 'Supplément en Vitamines et Minéraux Antioxydants' (SU.VI.MAX) cohort. RESULTS Sensitive facial skin was reported by 61% of the women (n = 5074) and 32% of the men (n = 3448), and the frequency decreased with age. The frequency of patterns I, II and III was greater for women (78, 72 and 58%, respectively) than for men (56, 48 and 28%) of comparable classes of age. The frequency of pattern IV was reported by 49% of premenopausal women, and skin reactions after shaving by 41% of the men. Sun sensitivity was found to be a major component of skin sensitivity. Factor analysis showed that individuals with fair phototype frequently evoked reactions associated with pattern I, and skin redness and burning sensations were related to certain environmental conditions (pattern II). CONCLUSION Skin sensitivity is a common concern that declines with age and is relevant for men as well as for women.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to test the influence of phototype and vitamin D status feature on the bone mineral density (BMD) of the femoral neck in a group of middle-aged women considered at risk of osteoporosis (low levels of vitamin D [25(OH)D3<78 nmol/L] and hyperparathyroidism [parathormone level>36 pg/mL]). METHODS This two-step study was conducted on 122 French women enrolled in the SUVIMAX (supplémentation en vitamines et minéraux antioxydants: antioxidant vitamin and mineral supplementation) cohort. The impact of various variables on BMD, including age, body mass index (BMI), vitamin D status, alcohol intake, sun exposure intensity and phototype was investigated using regression models. RESULTS No statistical link was found between BMD and the variables documenting vitamin D status and parathormone levels, nor phototype. Nevertheless, fair phototypes tended to be associated with lower BMD values. However, BMD decreased with age and increased with BMI and physical activity level. CONCLUSIONS Whatever their phototype, adult women concerned about precarious vitamin D status should undergo a vitamin D supplementation in combination with an adequate calcium intake all year long and a proper sun protection. Moreover, a physical activity maintenance should provide an additional benefit for prevention of osteoporosis.

Abstract
We assessed the impact of participating to clinical research among 1727 women with localized breast cancer. Using as referent individuals not treated according to guidelines for systemic therapy, the adjusted hazard ratio of death was 0.70 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.54,0.90, p-value: 0.006) in those treated according to current guidelines and 0.45 (95% CI: 0.27,0.73, p-value: 0.001) in participants to research. Participation to clinical trials results in a substantial gain in survival.

Abstract
Docetaxel and Gemcitabine are active agents in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). They have different mechanism of action, minimal overlapping toxicity, and are easily administered on an outpatient basis. This phase II study evaluated Docetaxel administered with Gemcitabine on days 1 and 8 in a 3-week cycle, to determine its efficacy, while attempting to lower the regimen's toxicity, especially myelosuppression which can occur when Docetaxel is administered at full dose on day 1 only. Forty-three chemonaive patients, 40 evaluable, were entered in this trial between May 2001 and March 2002. Thirty-seven patients had stage IV and three patients had stage III B NSCLC, median age 58 (ages 32-78), median performance status (PS) 1 (range 0-2). They were treated with Docetaxel 36mg/m(2) and Gemcitabine 1000mg/m(2) intravenously on days 1 and 8 in a 3-week cycle. No growth factors were administered. Of 40 evaluable patients, 4 achieved partial response (10%), 25 stable disease (62.5%) and 11 progressive disease (27.5%). Median time-to-disease progression was 15 weeks. Median survival was 7.75 months. One year survival was 32.5% (13 patients). Hematologic toxicity was minimal, non-hematologic toxicity was easily treatable. Docetaxel, when given with Gemcitabine on days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks, is less myelotoxic, yet still an effective treatment for metastatic NSCLC.

Abstract
In order to explore the variations over the course of a day in certain skin biophysical properties, a study was conducted on 8 female volunteers. An assessment of several skin biophysical properties was carried out on the face and the volar forearm every 4 h over a period of 48 h. The biophysical parameters were assessed on the face for sebum secretion, skin surface pH, skin colour, transepidermal water loss, capacitance and skin surface temperature. The same parameters were measured on the volar forearm (excepted for sebum secretion). A statistical analysis based on mixed effect models was conducted. Four models, with different covariance structures, were successively tested. The analysis allowed us to identify a structure that repeated itself over time in the same way over each 24-hour period for capacitance on the forearm and for sebum secretion, skin surface pH and skin colour (L* and a* parameters) on the face. Mixed effect methodology is a powerful tool to analyse longitudinal data involving correlations among repeated measurements made on the same subject.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this analysis was to study the possible effect of hormonal replacement therapy on some biophysical properties of the skin of menopausal women. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A study was carried out on 106 menopausal, phototype I to IV women with clinically healthy skin. During the medical evaluation, the menopausal status, duration of the menopause, and, possible use of hormone replacement therapy and its duration were collected. A series of biophysical skin parameters in controlled environmental conditions was assessed on the face: sebum casual level, skin surface pH, skin colour, transepidermal water loss, capacitance, conductance, skin relief and temperature. The same parameters except for sebum were assessed on the forearm. Three sub-samples were defined according to the duration of the menopause and of hormone replacement therapy. RESULTS The skin colour parameters revealed a greater red intensity value in menopausal women who had been treated for at least one year. In menopausal women who had been treated for at least 5 or 10 years, the biophysical measurements were significantly higher for the parameters evaluating hydration and sebum secretion, associated with higher values for the yellow intensity parameter and the skin relief parameters on the forehead. CONCLUSION These results support the subjective impression and the clinical evaluation according to which hormonal replacement therapy could modify the development and the severity of some properties associated with skin ageing after the onset of menopause.

Abstract
Recent meta-analyses have shown the importance of locoregional control as a long-term determinant of breast cancer survival. Whether factors related to the delivery of radiotherapy, such as delay, dose, fractionation or irradiated volume, are associated with outcome remains unclear. We performed a critical review of the literature on delay to radiation using a computerized search of papers published between 1985 and 2000. Periods of accrual, details of radiotherapy, surgical and systemic treatment, and information on prognostic factors were noted. Studies on sequencing of adjuvant therapy were compared to studies on delay to radiation, classified according to whether or not patients also received chemotherapy. Comparisons of patients receiving systemic therapy to individuals spared this option were considered uninformative since the impact of delaying radiation is then highly confounded by systemic treatment received. The single published experimental study on sequencing suggests that delay to radiation may compromise local control, and this is consistent with a few retrospective reports on delay to radiotherapy among patients receiving chemotherapy. However, indirect evidence from two randomized clinical trials of chemotherapy, and the majority of observational studies on delay to radiotherapy, suggest that it has no impact on either local, distant control or survival. Factors, methodological, and others, that could explain these inconsistencies are discussed. No study restricted to patients at low risk of recurrence suggested an impact of delaying radiation. Short chemotherapy regimens are likely to represent a safe option with respect to outcome of radiation treatment.

Abstract
Although the effects of individual foods or nutrients on the development of diseases and their risk factors have been investigated in many studies, little attention has been given to the effect of overall dietary patterns. The main objectives of this study were to identify dietary patterns and groups of subjects with similar food consumption habits, i.e. 'dietary profiles', using multiple correspondence analysis and cluster analysis. A food frequency questionnaire was sent to a large population-based sample (2923 women and 2,180 men), recruited among the 'SUpplementation en VItamines et Minéraux AntioXydants' (SU.VI.MAX.) cohort participants in France. The food items were dichotomised in order to focus the study on the highest levels of consumption. Multiple correspondence analysis allows the construction of principal components, which optimally summarise the data, and enables the construction of graphical displays. An interesting property of these graphical displays is that associations between food items can be observed on various projection planes, each category of each food item being located at the centre of gravity of the subjects corresponding to this category. An ascending hierarchical classification was unsuccessfully tried in order to determine clusters from these principal components. Therefore, a 'dissection' of the cloud of points was performed according to the orientation of the axes, providing a readily interpretable eight-dietary profiles typology for each sex. This statistical approach allows identification of particular dietary patterns and dietary profiles, which might be more appropriate in studies of diet-disease associations than the single food or nutrient approach that has dominated past epidemiological research.
