    Abstract: Purpose The female sex is reported to have a higher risk of adverse events (AEs) from cytotoxic chemotherapy. Few studies examined the sex differences in AEs and their impact on the use of medical services during adjuvant chemotherapy. This sub-study aimed to compare the incidence of any grade and grade ≥ 3 AEs, healthcare utilization, chemotherapy completion rate, and dose intensity according to sex.Materials and Methods This is a sub-study of a multicenter cohort conducted in Korea that evaluated the impact of healthcare reimbursement on AE evaluation in patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy between September 2013 and December 2016 at four hospitals in Korea.Results A total of 1,170 patients with colorectal, gastric, or non–small cell lung cancer were included in the study. Female patients were younger, had fewer comorbidities, and experienced less postoperative weight loss of 〉 10%. Females had significantly higher rates of any grade AEs including nausea, abdominal pain, stomatitis, vomiting, and neutropenia, and experienced more grade ≥ 3 neutropenia, nausea, and vomiting. The dose intensity of chemotherapy was significantly lower in females, and they also experienced more frequent dose reduction after the first cycle. Moreover, female patients receiving platinum-containing regimens had significantly higher rates of unscheduled outpatient visits.Conclusion Our study found that females experienced a higher incidence of multiple any-grade AEs and severe neutropenia, nausea, and vomiting, across various cancer types, leading to more frequent dose reductions. Physicians should be aware of sex differences in AEs for chemotherapy decisions.

    Abstract: Purpose: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized the cancer prognosis in various cancer types. However, ICIs may trigger accelerated tumor progression, regarded as hyperprogressive disease (HPD), in certain patients, and it is still challenging to define HPD. We aimed to investigate the landscape of HPD and the prognostic value of its different definitions in advanced solid cancer patients treated with ICIs. Methods: We conducted a multicenter, prospective cohort study for solid cancer patients receiving ICIs. Among them, only unresectable or metastatic cancer patients were included in this analysis. Tumor response was evaluated according to RECIST 1.1. In patients who showed progressive disease (PD) by RECIST 1.1 at the first tumor evaluation, HPD was defined according to the following three criteria: A) tumor growth kinetics (TGK) ratio (TGKpost-ICI/TGKpre-ICI & gt;=2, B) & gt;=10mm increase in sum of target lesion (SUMtarget)and at least one of the following two criteria - 1) & gt;=40% increase in SUMtarget or 2) & gt;=20% increase in SUMtarget and the appearance of new lesions in at least two different organs, C) TGK ratio & gt;=2 and & gt;50% increase in SUMtarget. The discriminatory ability of three definitions in terms of overall survival (OS) were evaluated by the chi-square, C-statistics, and prediction error with integrated Brier score. Results: A total of 427 patients were included; head and neck (n=22, 5.2%), lung (n=173, 40.5%), breast (n=8, 1.9%), gastrointestinal tract (n=99, 23.2%), hepatobiliary pancreas (n=57, 13.3%), genitourinary (n=56, 13.1%), melanoma (n=5, 1.2%), and others (n=7, 1.6%). Incidences of HPD were 4.9%, 14.8%, and 11.5% in definition A, B, C, respectively. The incidence of HPD was relatively low (2.7%-9.5%) in non-small cell lung cancer compared to other cancer types (10.1%-21.5% in esophagogastric cancer, 3.9%-21.6% in hepatobiliary pancreas cancer, and 5.5%-22.5% in genitourinary cancer). Median OS was the worst for patients with HPD, which ranged from 4.8 months to 4.9 months according to definition A-C. After multivariate analysis adjusting for cancer types, ICIs types, and the number of prior anti-cancer therapy, each definition remained a significant factor for OS (P & lt;0.001, respectively). Both chi-square and C-statistics of definition B were higher than those of definition A and C, although prediction error with integrated brier scores was similar between three definitions. Conclusions: Incidences of HPD appear to be various according to its definitions and cancer types. Given that the RECIST-based definition B not requiring pre-ICI imaging, showed similar discriminatory ability to predict dismal OS compared to TGK-based ones, it may be the most feasible and convenient measure to capture HPD in daily clinical practice.
