Abstract
BACKGROUND Although osimertinib is a promising therapeutic agent for advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive lung cancer, the incidence of pneumonitis is particularly high among Japanese patients receiving the drug. Furthermore, the safety and efficacy of subsequent anticancer treatments, including EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) rechallenge, which are to be administered after pneumonitis recovery, remain unclear. OBJECTIVE This study investigated the safety of EGFR-TKI rechallenge in patients who experienced first-line osimertinib-induced pneumonitis, with a primary focus on recurrent pneumonitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with EGFR mutation-positive lung cancer who developed initial pneumonitis following first-line osimertinib treatment across 34 institutions in Japan between August 2018 and September 2020. RESULTS Among the 124 patients included, 68 (54.8%) patients underwent EGFR-TKI rechallenge. The recurrence rate of pneumonitis following EGFR-TKI rechallenge was 27% (95% confidence interval [CI] 17-39) at 12 months. The cumulative incidence of recurrent pneumonitis was significantly higher in the osimertinib group than in the first- and second-generation EGFR-TKI (conventional EGFR-TKI) groups (hazard ratio [HR] 3.1; 95% CI 1.3-7.5; p = 0.013). Multivariate analysis revealed a significant association between EGFR-TKI type (osimertinib or conventional EGFR-TKI) and pneumonitis recurrence, regardless of severity or status of initial pneumonitis (HR 3.29; 95% CI 1.12-9.68; p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Osimertinib rechallenge after initial pneumonitis was associated with significantly higher recurrence rates than conventional EGFR-TKI rechallenge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The outcomes after mitral valve transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (M-TEER) for the patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) in hemodynamically unstable conditions, such as cardiogenic shock, still remain unclear. We aimed to integrate previous publications regarding M-TEER indicated for life-threatening conditions and indirectly particularly compared the short-term outcomes thereof, with that of other treatments. METHODS We systematically searched the PubMed, Cochrane, and MEDLINE databases for studies from inception to June 2023, regarding M-TEER in patients with hemodynamic instability and severe MR. The primary outcomes analyzed included the in-hospital and 30-day mortality rates, and peri-procedural complications. RESULTS Of the initial 820 publications, we conducted a meta-analysis of a total of 25 studies. The relative risk of moderate-to-severe or severe MR was 0.13 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.10-0.18, I2 = 45.2 %). The pooled in-hospital and 30-day mortality rates were 11.8 % (95 % CI: 8.7-15.9, I2 = 96.4 %) and 14.1 % (95 % CI: 10.9-18.3, I2 = 35.5 %), respectively. The 30-day mortality rate was statistically significantly correlated with the residual moderate-to-severe or severe MR, as per the meta-regression analysis (coefficient β = 3.48 [95 % CI: 0.99-5.97], p = 0.006). Regarding peri-procedural complications, the pooled rates of a stroke or transient ischemic attack, life-threatening or major bleeding, acute kidney injury, and peri-procedural mitral valve surgery were 2.3 % (95 % CI: 1.9-2.6), 7.6 % (95 % CI: 6.8-8.5), 32.9 % (95 % CI: 31.6-34.3), and 1.0 % (95 % CI: 0.8-1.3), respectively. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis demonstrates that the relatively higher rates of procedural complications were observed, nevertheless, M-TEER can potentially provide favorable short-term outcomes even in hemodynamically unstable patients.

Abstract
Importance Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) plus chemotherapy combination treatment (ICI-chemotherapy) is now a standard treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without targetable oncogene alterations, but there are few data on ICI-chemotherapy for patients 75 years and older. Objective To inform the choice of first-line drugs in clinical practice and assess the safety and efficacy of ICI-chemotherapy combination treatment in older adult patients with previously untreated advanced NSCLC. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective cohort study included 58 centers in Japan. The cohort consisted of patients 75 years and older with clinical stage IIIB, IIIC, IV, postoperative or radiotherapy recurrent NSCLC. Patients started first-line systemic therapy between December 2018 and March 2021. Those receiving first-line molecular targeted drugs were excluded. The data were analyzed from February 2022 to October 2022. Exposures Systemic therapy. Main Outcomes and Measures The main outcomes were overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and safety. Results A total of 1245 patients (median [range] age, 78 [75-95] years; 967 [78%] male) with NSCLC were included in the cohort. Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression of less than 1% occurred in 268 tumors (22%); 1% to 49% in 387 tumors (31%); 50% and higher in 410 tumors (33%), and unknown expression in 180 tumors (14%). Median OS was 20.0 (95% CI, 17.1-23.6) months for the 354 patients receiving ICI-chemotherapy (28%); 19.8 (95% CI, 16.5-23.8) months for the 425 patients receiving ICI alone (34%); 12.8 (95% CI, 10.7-15.6) months for the 311 patients receiving platinum-doublet chemotherapy (25%); and 9.5 (95% CI, 7.4-13.4) months for the 155 patients receiving single-agent chemotherapy (12%). After propensity score matching, no differences in OS and PFS were found between the patients receiving ICI-chemotherapy vs ICI alone. Each group consisted of 118 patients. For PD-L1 expression of 1% and higher the OS hazard ratio (HR) was 0.98 (95% CI, 0.67-1.42; P = .90), and the PFS HR was 0.92 (95% CI, 0.67-1.25; P = .59). Significance was also not reached when separately analyzed for lower or higher PD-L1 expression (1%-49% or ≥50%). However, grade 3 or higher immune-related adverse events occurred in 86 patients (24.3%) treated with ICI-chemotherapy and 76 (17.9%) with ICI alone (P = .03). Conclusions and Relevance In this study, ICI-chemotherapy combination treatment did not improve survival and increased the incidence of grade 3 and higher immune-related adverse events compared with ICI alone in patients 75 years and older. Based on these results, ICI alone may be recommended for older adult patients with PD-L1-positive NSCLC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) followed by durvalumab consolidation for up to 12 months is the standard of care for patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, exactly when to initiate durvalumab therapy after chemoradiation completion remains unknown. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of durvalumab, administered immediately after CCRT completion, for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study was a prospective, single-arm, open-label phase II clinical trial. Patients without disease progression after definitive CCRT (two cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy with 60 Gy/30 Fr radiotherapy) received durvalumab (every 2 weeks for up to 12 months) from the next day (up to 5 days) after the final radiation dose. The primary endpoint was the 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) from registration before the start of CCRT. RESULTS From January 2020 to August 2020, 47 of 50 enrolled patients were evaluable for treatment efficacy and safety. The 1-year PFS from registration was 75.0% [60% confidence interval (CI), 69.0-80.0 and 95% CI, 59.4-85.3]. The objective response rate throughout the study treatment and median PFS from registration were 78.7% and 14.2 months (95% CI, 13.4 to not reached), respectively. Grade 3/4 pneumonitis and febrile neutropenia were each 4.3%. CONCLUSIONS Our study met the primary endpoint. The incidence of pneumonitis was similar to that of a Japanese subset in the PACIFIC study. Our data support the efficacy and safety of durvalumab administered immediately after the completion of CCRT for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND According to the results of the KEYNOTE-407 trial, pembrolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy is the standard of care for patients with previously untreated advanced squamous non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Ubenimex, a potent aminopeptidase inhibitor, is an oral drug with immunostimulatory and antitumor activities. We aim to assess the safety and efficacy of ubenimex in combination with pembrolizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin in patients with previously untreated advanced squamous NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS This prospective, single-arm, multicenter, phase II clinical trial is conducted to confirm the tolerability and efficacy of the tested drugs. Patients with previously untreated advanced squamous NSCLC will receive a predetermined daily dose of ubenimex orally plus 4 cycles of pembrolizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin, followed by continuous administration of ubenimex and pembrolizumab for a maximum of 2 years. To confirm tolerability, the daily dose of ubenimex will begin at level 1 (30 mg), which will be increased to levels 2 (60 mg) and 3 (120 mg) according to the escalation criteria, with a standard 3 + 3 design for achieving the target dose-limiting toxicity rate of 33%. The efficacy, safety, and tolerability of ubenimex at the determined dose level will be analyzed. The primary endpoint of the efficacy evaluation will be the objective response rate assessed by an independent review committee. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ubenimex combined with pembrolizumab, nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin in patients with previously untreated advanced squamous NSCLC. The results will help devise future treatment strategies.

Abstract
We have investigated the local atomic structures of several compositions of the amorphous phase of the system CuxGe50-xTe50(0⩽x⩽33.3), based on extended x-ray absorption fine-structure as well as anomalous x-ray scattering experiments, and discuss the unusual trend regarding their thermal stability as a function of the Cu content. At low concentrations (x⩽15), Cu atoms tend to agglomerate in flat nanoclusters reminiscent of the crystalline phase of metallic Cu, leading to a more and more Ge-deficient Ge-Te host network structure with growing Cu content and an increasing thermal stability. At higher Cu concentrations (x⩾25), Cu is incorporated into the network, leading to an overall weaker bonding situation which is associated with a decreasing thermal stability.

Abstract
Meningitis-retention syndrome (MRS) is the combination of aseptic meningitis and acute urinary retention that occurs in the absence of other neurological diseases. The cause(s) of MRS remain unclear. A 57-year-old Japanese woman was referred to our hospital for the evaluation of persistent fever and headache. The fever's cause was initially unclear, but the presence of urinary retention raised concern about possible aseptic meningitis despite no physical indications of meningeal irritation. Only typical cases of MRS have been reported thus far to our knowledge, and it is important that clinicians are aware of MRS when it presents in this atypical form.

Abstract
Inelastic x-ray scattering measurements have been carried out to investigate atomic dynamics in a melt of fast phase change material GeCu2Te3. The dynamic structure factor was analysed using the model function with three damped harmonic oscillator components. By investigating the correlation between the excitation energy and the linewidth, and that between the excitation energy and the intensity on contour maps of a relative approximate probability distribution function proportional toexp(-χ2/N), we could judge the reliability of each inelastic excitation in the dynamic structure factor. The results indicate that there are two inelastic excitation modes besides the longitudinal acoustic one in the liquid. The lower energy excitation could be assigned to the transverse acoustic one whereas the higher energy one disperses like fast sound. The latter result may imply that the liquid ternary alloy exhibits a microscopic phase separation tendency.

Abstract
Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare thromboembolic disease, with occasional critical consequences. Essential thrombocythaemia (ET) is associated with an increased incidence of venous and arterial thrombotic events. In addition, the JAK2-V617F mutation increases the risk of thrombosis. Few reports have evaluated the utility of balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) for worsening CTEPH with ET and the JAK2-V617F mutation. Case Summary A 76-year-old woman, diagnosed with ET and the JAK2-V617F mutation, presented with dyspnoea. Echocardiography showed severe tricuspid regurgitation with a flattened interventricular septum. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed an eccentric thrombus in the right main pulmonary artery (PA) and thrombi in bilateral peripheral PAs. Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) was initially diagnosed, and heparinization was initiated; however, her oxygen saturation gradually worsened despite continued anticoagulation therapy. Her oxygen saturation level decreased to 90% (under a reservoir mask of 10 L). Her haemodynamics suggested CTEPH comorbidity. We decided to perform emergency right heart catheterization (RHC) and pulmonary angiography (PAG). RHC showed severe pulmonary hypertension. PAG showed fresh and organized thrombi and web regions in several segmental PAs. These findings indicated a combination of acute PE and CTEPH. Rescue BPA was performed on the right A1, A3, A8, and A9 segments. After BPA, the patient's oxygen saturation showed marked improvement. The patient was discharged 18 days after hospitalization without complications. Discussion Rescue BPA could be an effective treatment for worsening CTEPH in severely impaired conditions, even with ET and the JAK2-V617F mutation.

Abstract
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the standard treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, repeating surgery in recurrent cases is generally deemed high-risk. Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA), an alternative treatment for organized thrombotic lesions of the peripheral pulmonary artery, has also shown a good prognosis in cases of inoperable CTEPH. Here, we report the case of a 65-year-old woman who presented with dyspnea. She had been admitted to our hospital in 2015 and diagnosed with University of San Diego (USD)-California classification CTEPH of level II. PEA had been performed, which resolved her respiratory discomfort, and her WHO functional class had improved from IV to I. Post-surgery pulmonary angiography had shown several residual lesions; nonetheless, pulmonary hypertension had not been noted, and the patient had not experienced dyspnea thereafter. We had decided to continue medical therapy; however, the patient stopped taking anticoagulation and pulmonary vasodilators due to the absence of symptoms. In 2021, dyspnea recurred, and she was hospitalized for examination. Chest radiography showed no cardiomegaly, and heart failure and tricuspid regurgitation were absent on echocardiography. The six-minute walk test distance was 565 m, and the lowest oxygen saturation during the test was 92%. Right heart catheterization demonstrated a mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) of 15 mmHg without pulmonary hypertension; however, pulmonary angiography showed new organized thrombotic lesions in the left segments of the lower lobe. Based on the advancement of the lesions, we speculated that they were the cause of the symptoms even without concurrent pulmonary hypertension. Therefore, we performed two additional BPA procedures. Subsequently, the mean PAP decreased further to 13 mmHg. The patient's symptoms improved, the six-minute walk test distance increased to 656 m, and the WHO functional class returned to I. In conclusion, BPA for recurrent lesions after surgery for CTEPH can improve the patient's symptoms and exercise tolerance.

Abstract
A 77-year-old man presented with dyspnoea and was diagnosed with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Balloon pulmonary angioplasty was attempted; however, the balloons could not be advanced to the total occlusion lesion in the right A3 segment. The obstruction was overcome using a microcatheter Corsair (AsahiKASEI). This technique may be useful in managing a total occlusion lesion.

Abstract
Background Currently, only a few treatment options exist for performance status (PS) 2 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), whereas the carboplatin/nab-paclitaxel (CBDCA/nab-PTX) regimen is attracting attention as a standard of care for PS 0-1 patients because of its wide suitability and modest risk of peripheral neuropathy. However, the treatment dose and schedule should be optimized for PS 2 patients. Therefore, we planned a single-arm phase II study to characterize the efficacy and tolerability of our modified CBDCA/nab-PTX regimen for untreated PS 2 patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods Enrolled patients were treated with CBDCA (area under the curve 5 on day 1) plus nab-PTX (70 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15) every 4 weeks for up to six cycles. The primary endpoint was the progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 6 months. As exploratory analyses, the reasons for PS 2 (disease burden versus comorbidities/indeterminant) and the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) were evaluated as efficacy indicators. Results This study was terminated early because of slow accrual. Seventeen patients [median age, 68 years (range, 50-73 years)] received a median of three cycles. The 6-month PFS rate, median PFS, and median overall survival were 20.8% [95% confidence interval (CI): 0-41.6], 3.0 months (95% CI: 1.7-4.3), and 9.5 months (95% CI: 5.0-14.0), respectively. Exploratory analyses suggested better overall survival in patients whose PS was not attributable to the disease burden (median, 9.5 vs. 7.2 months) or whose CCI was ≤3 (median, 15.5 vs. 7.2 months). Grade 3-4 adverse events occurred in 12 (71%) patients, and grade 5 pleural infection occurred in one (6%) patient. Meanwhile, only one (6%) patient each experienced grade 1 peripheral neuropathy and grade 2 interstitial pneumonitis. Conclusions No conclusion could be drawn from this study because of its early termination. However, our modified CBDCA/nab-PTX regimen might be useful for PS 2 patients who hesitate to use regimens other than nab-PTX, and particularly patients concerned about peripheral neuropathy or interstitial pneumonitis. The potential role of PS 2 and CCI as efficacy predictors for this regimen should be further examined.

Abstract
Background Interstitial pneumonia (IP) is a poor prognostic comorbidity in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and is also a risk factor for pneumonitis. The TORG1936/AMBITIOUS trial, the first known phase II study of atezolizumab in patients with NSCLC with comorbid IP, was terminated early because of the high incidence of severe pneumonitis. Methods This study included patients with idiopathic chronic fibrotic IP, with a predicted forced vital capacity (%FVC) of >70%, with or without honeycomb lung, who had previously been treated for NSCLC. The patients received atezolizumab every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was the 1-year survival rate. Results A total of 17 patients were registered; the median %FVC was 85.4%, and 41.2% had honeycomb lungs. The 1-year survival rate was 53.3% (95% CI, 25.9-74.6). The median overall and progression-free survival times were 15.3 months (95% CI, 3.1-not reached) and 3.2 months (95% CI, 1.2-7.4), respectively. The incidence of pneumonitis was 29.4% for all grades, and 23.5% for grade ≥3. Tumor mutational burden and any of the detected somatic mutations were not associated with efficacy or risk of pneumonitis. Conclusion Atezolizumab may be one of the treatment options for patients with NSCLC with comorbid IP, despite the high risk of developing pneumonitis. This clinical trial was retrospectively registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials on August 26, 2019, (registry number: jRCTs031190084, https://jrct.niph.go.jp/en-latest-detail/jRCTs031190084).

Abstract
e21177 Background: The significance of micro-pretreatment EGFR T790M mutation on EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) efficacy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains uncertain. In addition, there has been no method to examine the micro-T790M mutation after excluding formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE)-derived artificial mutations. Therefore, we used a novel method to examine the variant allele frequency (VAF) of T790M mutation in the FFPE samples after excluding the artificial mutations. Subsequently, we retrospectively investigated the association between micro-T790M mutations and time to treatment failure (TTF) in patients treated with 1st, 2nd, or 3rd generation (1G, 2G, 3G) EGFR-TKIs. Methods: We enrolled patients with NSCLC who harbored EGFR exon 19 deletion (Del19) or L858R without T790M mutation using conventional methods. Patients who received 1G or 2G EGFR-TKIs until June 2018 or 3G EGFR-TKI until June 2019 from 31 institutions were included. Droplet digital PCR was performed using pretreatment FFPE tumor samples. We defined cases as micro-T790M positive when the VAF of T790M was higher than that of F795F, owing to the FFPE-derived artificial mutations. The ratio of micro-T790M mutation was calculated as follows: {(VAF of T790M) – (VAF of F795F)} /VAF of (Del19 or L858R). The lowest value was set as 0. Results: A total of 110, 102, and 103 patients received 1G, 2G, and 3G EGFR-TKIs, respectively. Of these patients, 48.1%, 47.0%, and 47.6% were classified as micro-T790M positive, respectively. The ratios of micro-T790M mutation, represented as median (%) (interquartile range), in 1G, 2G, and 3G EGFR-TKI groups were 0.27 (0.12-0.87), 0.28 (0.13-0.47), and 0.42 (0.20-0.68), respectively. The VAF of T790M or F795F in all patients, represented as median (%) (interquartile range), was 0.26 (0.19-0.35) or 0.25 (0.19-0.33), respectively. The TTF was not significantly different between the T790M-positive and negative groups in analysis based on each generation TKIs. In the Del19 group, the TTF of the 1G EGFR-TKI was significantly shorter, while that of the 3G EGFR-TKI was significantly longer in the T790M-positive group than in the negative group ( p= 0.02, 0.04, respectively). In the T790M-positive group, the TTF of the 2G or 3G EGFR-TKI group was significantly longer than that of the 1G EGFR-TKI group ( p= 0.04, 0.01, respectively). This result was observed in the Del19 group but not in the L858 group. Furthermore, TTF did not significantly differ between the 1G, 2G, and 3G EGFR-TKIs in the T790M-negative group. Conclusions: This study showed that micro- EGFR T790M mutations influence the EGFR-TKI efficacy. Detection of micro-T790M mutations will facilitate selection of the optimal EGFR-TKI for patients with EGFR mutated NSCLC.

Abstract
8536 Background: Concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by durvalumab maintenance for up to 12 months is the standard of care for patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the best timing of starting durvalumab after completion of chemoradiation has not been identified. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were better in the subgroup of patients administered durvalumab within 14 days after last radiation to randomization according to the PACIFIC study (Antonia SJ, et al. 2017, 2018 NEJM). Methods: This study was a prospective, single-arm, multicenter, phase II clinical trial. Eligibility criteria included patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC, ECOG PS 0-1, age < 75 years old. Patients who did not have disease progression after definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) (chemotherapy: 2 cycles of platinum-based doublet chemotherapy, radiotherapy: 60 Gy/30 Fr) received durvalumab (10 mg/kg, every 2 weeks for up to 12 months) from the next day (allowed up to 5 days) after last radiation. The primary endpoint was 1-year PFS rate from registration assessed by an independent review committee. The planned sample size was 47 with a threshold value of 50% based on results of the PACIFIC study, an expected value of 63%, one-sided alpha of 20% and power of 80% in 1-year PFS rate. Results: From January 2020 to August 2020, 50 patients were enrolled from 16 institutions and 47 patients were evaluable for efficacy and safety. Forty-two patients received durvalumab maintenance therapy. Patient characteristics were: male/female 41/6; median age 65 (range 42-75); ECOG PS 0/1 28/19; IIIA/IIIB/IIIC 19/21/7. The 1-year PFS rate from registration was 75.0% (60% CI: 69.0 to 80.0). The 1-year OS rate from registration was 97.7% (95%CI: 84.6 to 99.7). ORR, median PFS and median OS were 78.7%, 14.2 months (95%CI: 13.4 to not reached (NR)) and NR, respectively. Grade 3/4 adverse events were pneumonitis (4.3%), neutropenia (44.7%), febrile neutropenia (4.3%). There was no treatment-related death. Conclusions: Our study met the primary endpoint. Durvalumab can be safely administered immediately after completion of CCRT for patients with unresectable stage III NSCLC, no additional or unexpected toxicity occurred as a reference to the PACIFIC study. Clinical trial information: jRCTs031190117.

Abstract
The dynamic structure factorS(Q,E), whereQandEare momentum and energy transfer, respectively, has been measured for liquid Sb, using inelastic x-ray scattering. A modified damped harmonic oscillator model function was applied to analyseS(Q,E) of liquid Sb and also to that of liquid Bi by Inuiet al(2015Phys. Rev.B92, 054206). The obtained excitation energy was in fairly good agreement with that predicted byab initiomolecular dynamics simulations on these liquid semi-metals. The excitation energy of the longitudinal acoustic mode in liquid Sb and liquid Bi exhibits flat-toppedQdependence whereas the lower excitation energy below the longitudinal acoustic excitation showsQ-gap behaviour. From the viscosity estimated from theQ-gap experimentally obtained, it is inferred that the lower energy excitation arises from the transverse acoustic excitation in the liquids.

Abstract
An inelastic x-ray scattering experiment has been performed on molten NaCl over wide wave vector and energy transfer ranges. Data of high statistical quality are analyzed using a memory function approach within a generalized Langevin equation. The approach with two relaxation times for the memory function provides a very good data description over the whole wave vector range beyond the hydrodynamic regime. A slow thermal and a fast structural relaxation process in the memory function completely define the density fluctuations in molten NaCl and evidences the thermal-viscoelastic model as the minimal description for collective particle dynamics in molten alkali halides. The obtained excitation frequencies demonstrate a large positive dispersion effect, which can be related to the viscoelastic reaction of the molten salt. A transition from the viscoelastic to a hydrodynamic response of the molten salt at small wave vectors is observed. In the hydrodynamic regime the resulting thermal diffusivity agrees well with values obtained through light scattering. The modeling indicates some deficiencies at small wave vectors and large energy transfers and the spectra of the current correlation function evidences additional intensity at high frequency. The frequency of these additional modes approach a non-zero value at zero wave vector and indicates a non-acoustic character of these excitations. The frequency center of this additional inelastic intensity coincides with optic-type modes in molten NaCl predicted by simulations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Therapeutic strategies for atrial septal defect (ASD) with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of PAH-specific medications and subsequent transcatheter closure (ie, treat-and-repair strategy) on clinical outcomes. METHODS We enrolled 42 patients who were referred to 13 institutions for consideration of ASD closure with concomitant PAH and underwent the treat-and-repair strategy. The endpoint was cardiovascular death or hospitalisation due to heart failure or exacerbated PAH. RESULTS At baseline prior to PAH-specific medications, pulmonary to systemic blood flow ratio (Qp:Qs), pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR), and mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) were 1.9±0.8, 6.9±3.2 Wood units and 45±15 mm Hg. Qp:Qs was increased to 2.4±1.2, and PVR and mean PAP were decreased to 4.0±1.5 Wood units and 35±9 mm Hg at the time of transcatheter ASD closure after PAH-specific medications. Transcatheter ASD closure was performed without any complications. During a median follow-up period of 33 months (1-126 months) after transcatheter ASD closure, one older patient died and one patient was hospitalised due to heart failure, but the other patients survived with an improvement in WHO functional class. PAP was further decreased after transcatheter ASD closure. CONCLUSIONS The treat-and-repair strategy results in low complication and mortality rates with a reduction in PAP in selected patients with ASD complicated with PAH who have a favourable response of medical therapy.

Abstract
9037 Background: Although the efficacy of antibodies to programmed cell death–1 (PD-1) appears to be less pronounced in patients with NSCLC harboring epidermal growth factor receptor gene ( EGFR) mutations, patients who develop disease progression (PD) to TKIs due to mechanisms other than secondary T790M mutation of EGFR might be more likely to benefit from NIVO. Here, we report the results of first randomized phase II trial to compare NIVO with the CbPEM in those population. Methods: Pts with advanced EGFR mt NSCLC who experienced PD after EGFR-TKIs were randomized 1:1 to NIVO or CbPEM. Eligibility criteria included the treatment history with TKIs as follow; no evidence of T790M after PD on 1st/2nd generation (gen) TKIs (A) after PD on 3rd gen TKIs as a 2nd line for T790M positive tumor (B) or 3rd gen TKIs as a front-line (C). The primary end point is progression-free survival (PFS) and biomarker analysis were included for exploratory analysis. Results: A total of 102 patients was randomized. Median PFS and overall survival (OS) were 1.7 and 20.7 months (mo), respectively, for NIVO arm (n = 52) versus 5.6 and 19.9 months for CbPEM (n = 50) (Hazard ratio [HR] = 1.92 and 0.88, respectively). Overall response rate and duration of response were 9.6% and 5.3 months for NIVO and 36.0% and 5.5 months for CbPEM. PD-L1 expression on tumor cells and tumor mutation burden (TMB) were evaluated in 77 (TPS 0%. 1-49%, > 50%, n = 46, 20, and 11) and 50 (Median TMB 6.2mt/mb). Immune-related gene expression profiling was under evaluation and the results will be demonstrated in the meeting. The efficacy of NIVO in PD-L1 strong positive (>50%, n = 8) and no evidence of T790M after PD on 1st/2nd gen TKIs (n = 29) was tended to be better than their counterparts. There was no significant correlation between TMB and the efficacy of NIVO. Pneumonitis was observed in one patient (1.0%) for NIVO arm and no new safety signals were noted. Conclusions: NIVO was not associated with longer PFS than CbPEM in selected pts with advanced EGFR mt NSCLC. OS was similar between groups. Baseline PD-L1 status and genetic alteration features may be relevant predictive markers to select pts who would benefit from NIVO. Clinical trial information: jRCTs051180133. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are essential for treatment of various malignancies, including non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Recently, several studies have shown that the gut microbiome plays an important role in ICI treatment of solid cancers, and antibiotic (ATB) use had a negative impact on the outcomes of ICI treatment via dysbiosis in the gut. However, whether this is applicable to NSCLC remains unclear. The impact of ATBs based on PD-L1 expression also remains unclear. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients with NSCLC who received ICI monotherapy (anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 antibody) at nine institutions from December 2015 to May 2018. Outcomes with use of ATBs during the 2 months before or a month after initiation of ICI treatment, including progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), were investigated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate analysis was also conducted using a Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS A total of 531 patients were included in this study, among whom 98 (18.5%) received ATBs before or after ICI treatment. ATB use was significantly associated with a shorter median OS (11.7 months in the ATB group vs. 16.1 months in the non-ATB group; p = 0.028), whereas the difference in PFS was not significant (3.5 months in both the groups; p = 0.287). We next investigated the association based on PD-L1 expression in the 265 patients for whom PD-L1 expression was determined. There was no significant difference in the median OS or PFS between patients with NSCLC and PD-L1 expression <50% receiving ATBs and those not receiving ATBs (PFS: 3.3 vs. 2.8 months, p = 0.88; OS: 9.5 vs. 17.1 months, p = 0.24). Conversely, patients with NSCLC and PD-L1 expression ≥50% receiving ATBs showed significantly shorter median PFS and OS (PFS: 4.2 vs. 9.4 months, p = 0.012; OS: 11.9 vs. 28.4 months, p = 0.011). The impact of ATBs in patients with NSCLC and PD-L1 expression ≥50% was more significant than that in the entire cohort. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that the impact of ATB use on the efficacy of ICIs differed based on PD-L1 expression in patients with advanced NSCLC. A negative impact of ATB use was found in patients with NSCLC and PD-L1 expression ≥50% but not in those with PD-L1 expression <50%.

Abstract
In non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are mutations other than Ex19 deletion and Ex21 L858R, which are common mutations highly sensitive to EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Afatinib, a second‐generation EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been shown to be effective in patients with uncommon mutations. Dacomitinib, another second‐generation EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has not previously been shown to be effective in patients with uncommon mutations. Here, we report the efficacy of dacomitinib for uncommon EGFR mutations in a 71‐year‐old woman diagnosed with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with uncommon EGFR mutation (Ex18 G719A). Afatinib was administered as the first‐line treatment, and a remarkable antitumor effect was observed. However, the tumor grew after 14 months. Pemetrexed plus carboplatin followed by pemetrexed, docetaxel, atezolizumab and S‐1 were performed in sequence. Although approximately four years had passed since the start of treatment, her physical condition was good. The patient started dacomitinib as the sixth‐line treatment. Lesions were markedly reduced and treatment with dacomitinib was continued for 7.8 months. Dacomitinib is a possible treatment option for NSCLC with uncommon mutations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of crizotinib treatment for recurring EML4-ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) previously treated with alectinib is unclear. Based on our preclinical findings regarding hepatocyte growth factor/mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) pathway activation as a potential mechanism of acquired resistance to alectinib, we conducted a phase II trial of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase/MET inhibitor, crizotinib, in patients with alectinib-refractory, EML4-ALK-positive NSCLC. METHODS Patients with ALK-rearranged tumors treated with alectinib immediately before enrolling in the trial received crizotinib monotherapy. The objective response rate was the primary outcome of interest. RESULTS Nine (100%) patients achieved a partial response with alectinib therapy with a median treatment duration of 6.7 months. Crizotinib was administered with a median treatment interval of 50 (range, 20-433) days. The overall response rate was 33.3% (90% confidence interval [CI]: 9.8-65.5 and 95% CI: 7.5-70.1), which did not reach the predefined criteria of 50%. Two (22%) patients who achieved a partial response had brain metastases at baseline. Progression-free survival (median, 2.2 months) was not affected by the duration of treatment with alectinib. The median survival time was 24.1 months. The most common adverse events were an increased aspartate transaminase/alanine transaminase (AST/ALT) ratio (44%) and appetite loss (33%); one patient developed transient grade 4 AST/ALT elevation, resulting in treatment discontinuation. Other adverse events were consistent with those previously reported; no treatment-related deaths occurred. CONCLUSIONS Although the desired response rate was not achieved, crizotinib monotherapy following treatment with alectinib showed efficacy alongside previously described adverse events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Studies investigating the association between radiation therapy and the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer have provided inconsistent results, likely due to relatively small cohort sizes. This study investigated the effect of previous thoracic radiation therapy on the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in a large non-small-cell lung cancer cohort. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using data from 531 non-small-cell lung cancer patients who received monotherapy with programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 inhibitors at nine institutions. The effects of thoracic radiation therapy on the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors were investigated. RESULTS A total of 531 non-small-cell lung cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors were included in this study. The progression-free survival period was significantly longer in patients that had received thoracic radiation therapy before immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy compared to those without previous thoracic radiation therapy (median progression-free survival 5.0 vs. 3.0 months, P = 0.0013). A multivariate analysis showed that thoracic radiation therapy was an independent predictive factor of improved progression-free survival (hazard ratio of progression-free survival: 0.79, P = 0.049). In contrast, extra-thoracic radiation therapy was associated with inferior outcomes (median progression-free survival 3.0 vs. 4.2 months, P = 0.0008). CONCLUSION Previous thoracic radiation therapy, but not prior extra-thoracic radiation therapy, enhanced the efficacy of anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 therapy in non-small-cell lung cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interstitial pneumonia (IP) is one of the most common and poor prognostic comorbidities in patients with NSCLC and a known risk factor for pneumonitis. Atezolizumab monotherapy is an established treatment for recurrent NSCLC and reported to have a lower risk of pneumonitis than programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitors. This study aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of atezolizumab monotherapy in patients with pretreated advanced or recurrent NSCLC with idiopathic IP. METHODS Patients with advanced or recurrent NSCLC with comorbid idiopathic, chronic fibrotic IP with % forced vital capacity of greater than 70% and no history of immune checkpoint inhibitors were enrolled. The patients received atezolizumab (1200 mg) every 3 weeks until the discontinuation criteria were met. The primary end point of this study was the 1-year survival rate. A sample size of 38 patients was set. RESULTS This study was terminated early owing to high incidence of pneumonitis. A total of 17 patients were enrolled, with a median age of 70 years. The median % forced vital capacity and % diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide at baseline were 85.4% and 54.4%, respectively. The incidence of pneumonitis was 29.4% (5 of 17) for all grades, 23.5% (4 of 17) for grade greater than or equal to 3, and 5.9% (1 of 17) for grade 5. A total of 57.1% patients (4 of 7) with honeycomb lung developed pneumonitis with a grade greater than or equal to 3, whereas only one patient (10%) without honeycomb lung (n = 10) with grade 1 pneumonitis was found. CONCLUSIONS Patients with NSCLC with comorbid IP as defined by the selection criteria for this study might have an increased risk of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced pneumonitis.

Abstract
Background Amrubicin (AMR) is a completely synthetic 9-aminoanthracycline and clinically active against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We conducted a phase I study of AMR and erlotinib (ERL) combination therapy in previously treated patients with advanced NSCLC and have already reported the safety and effectiveness. Methods We conducted a multi-center, single-arm phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy of AMR and ERL combination therapy in patients with previously treated, advanced NSCLC harboring wild-type EGFR, PS 0-1 and < 75 years of age. Patients were treated at 3-week intervals with AMR plus ERL. The primary endpoint was the PFS, and the secondary endpoints were the response rate (RR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival (OS) and toxicity. The trough ERL concentration (Ctrough) was measured as an exploratory study to analyze the relationship between the efficacy/safety and pharmacokinetics. Results From June 2013 to July 2016, 25 patients were enrolled in this trial. The PFS according to the central test was 3.6 months (95% confidence interval 2.1-5.1). The RR and DCR were 24.0% and 64.0%, respectively. We had no treatment-related deaths in this study. Conclusions The PFS of AMR and ERL combination therapy was superior to that of AMR monotherapy in the historical setting, but the primary endpoint was not met in this trial. In our study, the pharmacokinetic analysis showed that the Ctrough of ERL was elevated with combination therapy. This combination therapy might be a viable treatment for previously treated NSCLC patients without a driver oncogene mutation. Clinical trial information UMIN 000010582.

Most clinical trials of non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) exclude patients with poor ECOG performance status (PS). Thus, the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in patients with poor PS remains unclear. Herein, we used data from a retrospective cohort to assess the potential clinical benefits of ICIs in NSCLC patients with poor PS. Data from NSCLC patients who received ICI monotherapy at 9 institutions between December 2015 and May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. After excluding 4 patients who lacked PS data, a total of 527 ICI‐treated patients, including 79 patients with PS 2 or higher, were used for our analyses. The progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with PS 2 or higher were significantly shorter compared with those of PS 0‐1 patients (median PFS, 4.1 vs 2.0 months; P < .001 and median OS, 17.4 vs 4.0 months; P < .001). Among NSCLC patients with programmed cell death protein‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) expression of 50% or higher who were treated with pembrolizumab as first‐line therapy, the median PFS times of patients with PS 2 and 0‐1 were 7.3 and 8.1 months, respectively. There was no significant difference in PFS between patients with PS 2 and 0‐1 (P = .321). Although poor PS was significantly associated with worse outcomes in NSCLC patients treated with ICIs, pembrolizumab as a first‐line treatment in NSCLC patients expressing high levels of PD‐L1 could provide a clinical benefit, even in patients with PS 2.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are less effective in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. However, a small percentage of patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC do respond, and the characteristics of these patients are not known. Here, we identify the characteristics of patients who may respond to ICI therapy for EGFR-mutant NSCLC. PATIENTS AND METHODS The medical records of NSCLC patients with EGFR mutations who received PD-1/PD-L1 antibody monotherapy at nine institutions were reviewed. RESULTS In total, 58 patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC were analyzed. Various clinical factors such as smoking history and EGFR mutation type were not associated with progression-free survival (PFS) of ICIs, while the PFS of prior EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) was inversely associated with that of ICIs. Patients who responded to prior EGFR TKIs for > 10 months exhibited a significantly shorter response to ICIs compared to those who had responded for ≤ 10 months (PFS of ICI: 1.6 vs. 1.9 months; hazard ratio: 2.54; 95% confidence interval 1.26-5.12; p = 0.009). However, patients who responded to ICIs for > 6 months responded to prior EGFR TKIs for significantly shorter periods compared to those who responded to ICIs for ≤ 6 months (PFS of prior EGFR TKI: 5.3 vs. 12.1 months; log-rank test: p = 0.0025). CONCLUSION The duration of response to prior EGFR TKIs could be a predictive marker of ICI therapy in EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Importance Although the efficacy of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors for EGFR gene mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer is well established, optimal dosing remains to be established, especially in elderly or frail patients. Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose erlotinib in elderly or frail patients with EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants Single-arm phase 2 trial with the Southwest Oncology Group (SWOG) 2-stage design that enrolled frail patients from 21 Japanese institutions after meeting the inclusion criteria. Chemotherapy-naive patients with EGFR-activating mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer who were considered frail based on age, the Charlson Comorbidity Index, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status were eligible for the study. Interventions Patients were initially administered 50 mg/d erlotinib for 4 weeks, which was modified based on response or adverse events. Dose increase was permitted for patients with stable disease after 4 weeks. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary end point was the independent review committee-confirmed objective response rate (ORR) at the dose of 50 mg/d. The study also evaluated the pharmacokinetics of low-dose erlotinib and influence of ABCB1 gene polymorphisms. Results Eighty patients were enrolled, with a median (range) age of 80 (49-90) years; 54 (68%) were men. An independent review committee confirmed a significant ORR of 60.0% (90% CI, 50.2%-69.2%). The disease control rate was 90.0% (90% CI, 82.7%-94.9%), median progression-free survival was 9.3 months (95% CI, 7.2-11.4 months), and median overall survival was 26.2 months (95% CI, 21.9-30.4 months). Mild adverse events were observed in some participants, with few patients exhibiting grade 3 or greater adverse events. Low-dose erlotinib treatment was temporarily suspended for 10 patients owing to adverse events. Five of 80 patients (6%) had their erlotinib dose reduced to 25 mg because of oral mucositis, paronychia, erythema multiforme, diarrhea, and anorexia. Two patients discontinued treatment because of adverse events (cutaneous ulcer and bone infection, and oral mucositis, respectively). There were no cases of interstitial lung disease or treatment-related deaths. The median (range) erlotinib plasma concentration was measured at 685 (153-1950) ng/mL. Seventy-three patients discontinued study treatment owing to disease progression (n = 60), death (n = 3), AEs (n = 4), and patient requests (n = 6). No clear association was observed between the pharmacokinetics of low-dose erlotinib and the treatment outcome. Conclusions and Relevance Low-dose erlotinib appears to be safe and effective in elderly or frail patients with EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer and can be a valid treatment option.

Abstract
Inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS) measurements were carried out on liquid Se50Te50 at temperatures up to 1323 K to investigate how the atomic dynamics changes with temperature through the semiconductor-metal transition. The acoustic mode was clearly observed in the dynamic structure factor and its energy was determined using a damped harmonic oscillator model. The dynamical sound speed obtained by IXS for [Formula: see text] nm-1 was found to behave similarly to the temperature dependence of ultrasonic sound velocity with a minimum near the semiconductor metal transition. The results can be explained by taking liquid Se50Te50 to be an inhomogeneous liquid consisting of metallic and semiconducting domains whose size is approximately 3 nm. The relaxation time obtained from frequency dependence of the dynamical sound speed was on a picosecond time scale.

Abstract
There are few clinical reports of elderly patients with paradoxical embolism in the current literature. Herein, we describe the case of a nonagenarian patient with paradoxical embolism of stroke-related patent foramen ovale (PFO). A 95-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of dysarthria. Her medical history included cerebral infarction, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. Magnetic resonance imaging performed in the emergency room revealed cerebral infarction of the left temporal lobe. After hospitalization in the neurosurgery department, we performed further clinical investigations to diagnose the type of stroke. There was no significant stenosis with plaque of the carotid and cerebral arteries, and there were no sources of cardiac embolism or an episode of atrial arrhythmia. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) showed PFO with separation and the Eustachian valve. In addition, spontaneous bidirectional shunt flow through the PFO was detected by TEE with the patient at rest. Ultrasonography of the leg vein revealed a thrombus in the deep vein. Therefore, she was diagnosed as having paradoxical embolism of stroke-related PFO and prescribed a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC). This very rare case in which stroke-related PFO was diagnosed in a nonagenarian patient demonstrates that PFO is the cause of paradoxical embolism of stroke regardless of age.

Abstract
LESSONS LEARNED Updated survival data for a phase I/II study of carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel and concurrent radiotherapy were collected. In the group of 58 patients who were enrolled at 14 institutions in Japan, the median overall survival was not reached and the 2-year overall survival rate was 66.1% (95% confidence interval, 52.1%-76.8%). Results reveal encouraging feasibility and activity for this regimen. BACKGROUND We report the updated survival data for a phase I/II study of carboplatin plus nab-paclitaxel (nab-P/C) and concurrent radiotherapy (CRT) in patients with locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Individuals between 20 and 74 years of age with unresectable NSCLC of stage IIIA or IIIB and a performance status of 0 or 1 were eligible for the study. Patients received weekly nab-paclitaxel at 50 mg/m2 for 6 weeks together with weekly carboplatin at an area under the curve (AUC) of 2 mg/ml/min and concurrent radiotherapy with 60 Gy in 30 fractions. This concurrent phase was followed by a consolidation phase consisting of two 3-week cycles of nab-paclitaxel (100 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15) plus carboplatin (AUC of 6 on day 1). After the treatment, patients were observed off therapy. The primary endpoint of the phase II part of the study was progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Between October 2014 and November 2016, 58 patients were enrolled at 14 institutions in Japan, with 56 of these individuals being evaluable for treatment efficacy and safety. At the median follow-up time of 26.0 months (range, 4.0-49.6 months), the median overall survival (OS) was not reached (95% confidence interval [CI], 25.3 months to not reached) and the 2-year OS rate was 66.1% (95% CI, 52.1%-76.8%). The median PFS was 11.8 months (95% CI, 8.2-21.0 months), and the 2-year PFS rate was 35.9% (95% CI, 23.1%-48.9%). Subgroup analysis according to tumor histology or patient age revealed no differences in median PFS or OS. Long-term follow-up of toxicities did not identify new safety signals, and no treatment-related deaths occurred during the study period. CONCLUSION Concurrent chemoradiation with nab-P/C was safe and provided a long-term survival benefit for patients with locally advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Substantial cases of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) due to acute coronary syndrome have been recognized thus far, but there have been few reports about the aetiology of patients with OHCA without the organic heart disease. Especially, coronary artery spasm would be one of the causes of OHCA.
Purpose
This study aimed to investigate causes of OHCA without the organic heart disease and to investigate the characteristics and angiographic findings of OHCA patients with vasospastic angina (VSA).
Methods
Between January 2010 and April 2018, 920 patients with OHCA caused by probable or definite cardiovascular disease were transferred to our hospital. Return of spontaneous contraction was successfully achieved in 151 patients, among whom diagnosis was made in 130 patients. First, we analysed the causes of OHCA in these patients. Second, we compared clinical and angiographic characteristics between the VSA group with OHCA (OHCA-VSA) and the VSA group without OHCA (stable VSA; n=72) from our database.
Results
Among the 130 patients, 95 (73%) had the organic heart disease; 72, acute coronary syndrome; 19, myocardial disease; 2, valvular heart disease; and 1, congenital heart disease. There were 35 patients (27%) without the organic heart disease. Nineteen patients had primary (i.e., Brugada syndrome, QT prolongation) or secondary arrhythmia (i.e. drug adverse effect). Electrocardiogram, coronary angiogram, and LV structure and function were normal in 35 patients. However, there were 16 patients (11%) with VSA defined by Japanese guideline. The OHCA-VSA group was significantly younger (50±14) than the stable VSA group (64±11, P=0.003). The incidence of diffuse-type spasm in the OHCA-VSA group (100%) was significantly higher than that in the stable VSA group (100% vs. 69%, P<0.05). In addition, the incidence of triple-vessel coronary spasm in the OHCA-VSA group was significantly higher than that in the stable VSA group (86% vs. 25%, P=0.003).
Conclusion
OHCA patients without the organic heart disease had considerable cases of VSA, in addition to primary or secondary arrhythmia. Furthermore, the severity of spasm in the OHCA-VSA group was more serious and extensive than in comparison with the stable VSA group.

Abstract
8529 Background: Chemoradiation regimens of greater efficacy are needed for patients with locally advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: Patients between 20 and 74 years of age with unresectable NSCLC of stage IIIA or IIIB and a performance status of 0 or 1 were eligible for the study. In the phase II part of the study, patients received weekly nab-paclitaxel at 50 mg/m2 together with weekly carboplatin at an area under the curve (AUC) of 2 mg mL–1 min and concurrent radiotherapy with 60 Gy in 30 fractions. This concurrent phase was followed by a consolidation phase consisting of two 3-week cycles of nab-paclitaxel plus carboplatin. The primary end point of the phase II part of the study was progression-free survival (PFS). Results: Between October 2014 and November 2016, 58 patients were enrolled at 14 institutions in Japan, with 56 of these individuals being evaluable for treatment efficacy and safety. At the median follow-up time of 26.0 months (range, 4.0 to 49.6 months), the median overall survival (OS) was not reached (95% confidence interval [CI], 25.3 months to not reached) and the 2-year OS rate was 66.1% (95% CI, 52.1% to 76.8 %). The median PFS was 11.8 months (60% CI, 10.6 to 16.8 months; 95% CI, 8.2 to 21.0 months). The overall response rate was 76.8% (95% CI, 64.2% to 85.9%), and the disease control rate was 94.6% (95% CI, 85.4% to 98.2%). Subgroup analysis according to histology or age revealed no significant differences in median PFS or OS. Common toxicities of grade 3 or 4 in the concurrent phase included leukopenia (60.7%) and neutropenia (28.6%). Pneumonitis of grade 3 was observed in two patients during the study period. No treatment-related deaths occurred. Conclusions: Our results reveal encouraging feasibility and activity for concurrent chemoradiation with nab-paclitaxel at 50 mg/m2 and carboplatin at an AUC of 2 mg mL–1 min in patients with locally advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2) is a potential driver oncogene. Although HER2-targeted precision therapy has been tested in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the demographic characteristics of HER2-positive NSCLC have not been systematically defined. METHODS Patients with pathologically confirmed stage IIIB/IV or recurrent NSCLC, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2, were prospectively registered. HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays were performed to screen patients. HER2 mutations were identified by using direct gene sequencing. The aim of this study was to clarify the frequency, characteristics, and outcome of HER2-positive NSCLC. HER2 was defined as positive if the tumor harbored IHC3+, IHC2+/FISH+, or exon 20 insertion mutations. RESULTS Of the 1,126 tumors screened, 34 (3.0%) were IHC3+, and 34 (3.0%) were IHC2+/FISH+. Among the 724 epidermal growth factor receptor wild-type tumors, 21 (2.9%) were HER2-mutant tumors, including A775-G776insYVMA (n = 15). Interestingly, the IHC3+ tumors and mutant tumors were entirely exclusive. Female patients had HER2-mutant tumors more frequently, whereas both IHC3+ and IHC2+/FISH+ tumors were detected more often in male subjects and smokers. Patients with an HER2-aberrant tumor had a significantly worse prognosis than those with epidermal growth factor receptor-positive and anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive tumors, possibly due to the low proportion that received HER2-targeted therapies (n = 15 [26%]) and low response rates of 0% and 14% in patients with HER2-overexpressing and HER2-mutant tumors, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This prospective large-scale cohort study is the first to show comprehensively the frequency and clinical demographic characteristics of those with HER2-positive advanced lung tumors in detail, providing critical historical data for future drug development against HER2-positive NSCLC. Future treatment strategies would be developed stratified according to the types of HER2 aberrations.

Abstract
Aim We investigated the efficacy, safety and optimal schedule of nanoparticle albumin‐bound paclitaxel monotherapy as second‐ or third‐line treatment for non‐small‐cell lung cancer patients without epidermal growth factor receptor mutation and anaplastic lymphoma kinase rearrangement. Methods Patients with pretreated advanced non‐small‐cell lung cancer without epidermal growth factor receptor mutation and anaplastic lymphoma kinase rearrangement were included. The patients were administered 100 mg/m2 of nanoparticle albumin‐bound paclitaxel on days 1, 8, 15 and 22 (level 0) or on days 1, 8 and 15 (level –1) every 4 weeks during phase I of the trial. The primary endpoint was objective response rate. The estimated objective response rate was 15% and the threshold was 5% with an α error of 0.05 and β error of 0.2 in phase II. Results The recommended schedule was determined as level –1 in phase I. The characteristics of the 55 patients enrolled in phase II were as follows: median age = 66 years, male/female = 40/15, second/third line = 34/21 and adenocarcinoma/squamous cell carcinoma/large cell carcinoma/others = 34/17/2/2. Objective response rate was 7.3% (95% confidence interval, 2.0–17.6%). Median progression‐free survival was 3.4 months. Treatment‐related grade 3 or 4 toxicities were neutropenia (36.4%), febrile neutropenia (5.5%) and pulmonary infection (3.6%). Three patients had grade 2 pneumonitis and one treatment‐related death occurred due to adult respiratory distress syndrome. Conclusion This study failed to meet predefined primary endpoints for pretreated patients with advanced non‐small‐cell lung cancer without epidermal growth factor receptor mutation and anaplastic lymphoma kinase rearrangement.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of percutaneous transcatheter aortic valvuloplasty (PTAV) performed prior to non-cardiac surgery and the safety of non-cardiac surgery after PTAV in elderly Japanese patients. Between March 2012 and August 2018, 14 patients who underwent PTAVs prior to non-cardiac surgery were enrolled. The mean age was 82.2 ± 7.0 years. A total of 9 patients (64.3%) were women. A retrograde approach was selected for 57.1% of the patients. More than 75% of the procedures were performed using echocardiographic imaging. Echocardiographic data including the aortic valve area (AVA), peak aortic valve blood velocity flow (AVF), peak aortic valve pressure gradient (AVPG), and mean AVPG significantly improved after PTAV (AVA; from 0.54 ± 0.11 to 0.80 ± 0.13 cm2, peak AVF; from 4.6 ± 0.8 to 3.8 ± 0.7 m/s, peak AVG; from 87.9 ± 28.0 to 62.2 ± 19.9 mmHg, mean AVG; from 49.8 ± 18.9 to 35.7 ± 11.6 mmHg; p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p = 0.0012, respectively). Neither complications related to the PTAV procedure nor procedural mortality were noted. Non-cardiac surgery after PTAV was safely performed; there were no significant adverse events during non-cardiac surgery and no in-hospital mortality occurred after non-cardiac surgery. PTAV prior to non-cardiac surgery in elderly Japanese patients with severe aortic stenosis is safe and effective. In addition, non-cardiac surgery after PTAV can be safety performed without adverse events.

Abstract
X-ray diffraction and inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of liquid Ba8Ga16Sn30 have been carried out to investigate local structure and atomic dynamics in the liquid. The pair distribution function shows shorter and longer interatomic distances in the first coordination shell. The dynamic structure factor exhibits the inelastic excitations on both sides of the quasielastic central peak. The inelastic excitations disperse with increasing the momentum transfer, suggesting the longitudinal acoustic mode. We found a low energy excitation in addition to the longitudinal acoustic excitation in the dynamic structure factor and it reminds us a strong relationship with a rattling motion of a guest (Ba) atom in the solid state. The temperature dependence of the pair distribution function and the longitudinal acoustic excitation energy is very weak in a range from 600 to 900 °C. The result suggests that Ba and other atoms in the melt are located around minimum positions of the effective pair potential approximated as a harmonic one.
