    Abstract: Background: The rationale for developing an alternative paclitaxel formulation concerns Cremophor EL-related side effects, and a novel paclitaxel delivery system might augment its therapeutic efficacy. Genexol-PM is a novel polymeric micelle formulated paclitaxel free of Cremophor. The polymeric micelle formulation is composed of hundreds of low molecular weight, non-toxic, and biodegradable amphiphilic diblock copolymers which include monomethoxy poly (ethylene glycol)-block-poly (D,L-lactide). This multicenter phase III study was designed to evaluate the non-inferiority of efficacy of Genexol-PM compared to conventional CrEL-based paclitaxel. Methods: In this phase III study, 213 patients were enrolled onto the study and randomly assigned (1:1) to treatment group according to prior recurrent or metastatic breast cancer chemotherapy. The study evaluated the objective response rate for the primary objective, and others including overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), time to tumor progression (TTP), duration of overall response and adverse events. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive either Genexol-PM or standard paclitaxel. Genexol-PM or standard paclitaxel was administered on the first day of every 3 weeks. Measurable disease was assessed by imaging using the RECIST 1.0 criteria. Results: The objective response rate (ORR) was higher by the administration of the study drug (39.05% v 24.30% in ITT, 56.92% v 39.29% in PP). One-sided 95% upper confidence limit was -4.36%, which is lower than the non-inferiority threshold (7%), indicating that the study group is not inferior to the control group. OS, PFS, TTP and duration of overall response were analyzed in the ITT population. The analysis of OS showed no significant difference (p=0.5878) (859 days, 95% CI : 732.00∼1,025.00 v 726 days, 95% CI : 553.00∼ -). Median PFS periods were 232 days (95% CI: 164.00∼274.00) vs. 191 days (95% CI: 159.00∼237.00). Median TTPs were 233 days (95% CI: 165.00∼286.00) vs. 191 days (95% CI: 159.00∼241.00) between the groups. Difference in PFSs and TTPs between the groups were not statistically significant. (p=0.2407, 0.2076, respectively) Genexol-PM was not significantly different from the comparator in terms of safety. Conclusion: Genexol-PM demonstrated non-inferior efficacy and comparable safety profile compared with standard paclitaxel in this patient population. Of note, Genexol-PM permits the delivery of a higher paclitaxel dose without additional toxicity achieved with CrEL-based formulation. In the absence of CrEL, no filter or special tubing is required that conventional PVC infusion sets can be used.

    Abstract: Background Immune system has been known to influence the prognosis of breast cancer (BC). However, the relationship between immune modulating factor (PD-L1) and tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) profiles in breast cancer has yet to be revealed according to breast cancer subtypes. In addition, the effects of circulating cytokines on TILs have not been addressed. Patients and methods We investigated the relationship between the profiles of TILs and PD-L1 expression of the primary tumor tissue by immunohistochemistry with clinical outcomes in 253 patients who underwent surgery for early breast cancer at National Cancer Center from January 2001 to December 2005. Besides, the serum cytokines including IL-10, IL-18, IL-6, IFN-g, and TGF-β1 were measured at diagnosis. Clinical data including hormone receptors status, HER2 expression, disease free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were collected. Results Median age of patients was 49 years (range, 32-74) and median follow-up was 8.5 years. One hundred eighty five (73.1%) patients had hormone receptor (HR) positive and 101 (39.9%) patients had node positive BC. CD8+ TILs were more abundant in low PD-L1 expressed tumor (P = 0.027), though there was no association between FOXP3+ TILs and PD-L1 expression (P = 0.585). A total number of TILs was higher in HR negative compared with HR positive BC (P = 0.061) and the expression of PD-L1 was more frequent in HR positive BC (P & lt;0.001). In HR negative BC, there was a trend of longer DFS in patients with higher CD8+ TILs and low PD-L1 expression (P = 0.097). However, such association was not detected in HR positive BC patients. Among serum cytokines we examined, the higher levels of IL-18 were significantly associated with shorter DFS in HR negative BC (P = 0.006). In HR negative BC, higher CD8+ TILs with low PD-L1 expression and lower IL-18 were significantly related with better clinical outcomes when adjusted with other clinical factors (DFS, P = 0.032; OS, P = 0.048). Conclusions Lower PD-L1 expression in breast tumor was associated with higher CD8+ lymphocyte infiltration. Especially in HR negative BC, increasing CD8+ TILs with lower PD-L1 expression and lower serum IL-18 level were good prognostic factors. Further validation will be needed to establish the role of immune profiles in BC patients. Citation Information: Cancer Res 2013;73(24 Suppl): Abstract nr P5-01-12.

    Abstract: Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be cured by cytotoxic chemotherapy, but about half of patients with AML fail to obtain long-term survival, mostly due to chemotherapy-resistance. Novel therapeutic approaches are needed to overcome the resistance. Many studies have shown that histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity is elevated in human cancers and HDAC inhibitors (HDIs) induce expression of genes critical for tumor growth arrest and apoptosis. To date, the US FDA approves two HDIs, vorinostat (SAHA) and romidepsin (FK228), for treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. CG200745 {(E)-2-(Naphthalen-1-yloxymethyl)-oct-2-enedioic acid 1-[(3-dimethylamino-propyl)-amide] 8-hydroxyamide] } is a novel hydroxamate-based pan-HDI. We examined anti-leukemic activities of CG200745 in AML and we also compared the effects of CG200745 and SAHA in vitro and in vivo. Materials and methods: For cell proliferation assay, 7 human AML and other leukemia cell lines (HL60, K562, Molm13, MV4, NB4, U937, and KG-1) were cultured with HDIs (CG200745 and SAHA) and cell viability was determined by CCK-SK kit. Cell cycle analysis was performed using a flow cytometer. For western blotting of acetylation and apoptosis induction, antibodies to acetylated (on Lys 18) histone H3, histone H3, PARP, XIAP, caspases-3, –8, and –9, and actin were used. For measuring membrane potential of mitochondria, a flow cytometer was used after staining with TMRE. We established a murine leukemic model with infusing WEHI-3 leukemia cells in BALB/c mice, and tested anti-leukemic effects of HDIs in vivo. Lastly, we obtained leukemic cells from patients with AML and performed cell proliferation assay using CellTiter 96® Aqueous One Solution Reagent. Results: CG200745 and SAHA successfully inhibited HDAC activities in human leukemic cell lines. Both agents decreased cell viability in a dose-dependent manner and IC50 values were lower with CG200745 than with SAHA in all leukemic cell lines except one (KG-1). In U937 cell line, flow cytometry showed the accumulation of S population by both HDIs. Exposure of the cells to the HDIs resulted in activation of caspase-9 and –3, increase of PARP cleavage, and decrease of XIAP. Activation of caspase-8 was not noted. TMRE fluorescence levels decreased after treatment of HDIs in a dose-dependent manner and were correlated with decrease of XIAP and increase of apoptosis. Decrease of mitochondrial membrane potential was more prominent with CG200745 compared to SAHA. In both murine leukemic model using WEHI-3 leukemic cells and CellTiter assay using leukemic cells from AML patients, CG200745 showed more significant anti-leukemic activities than SAHA. Conclusion: CG200745 has significant anti-leukemic activities against AML cells and the effects appear to be mediated by activation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway and induction of mitochondrial dysfunction.

    Abstract: Background: Most patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC) experience disease progression after being treated with an anthracycline or taxane. Irinotecan, a semisynthetic agent derived from the natural alkaloid camptothecin is metabolized to the active metabolite SN-38 which targets topoisomerase I leading to single and double strand DNA breaks. Irinotecan as a single agent demonstrated tumor activity with an objective response rate ranging from 5 to 23% in patients with MBC refractory to taxane and anthracycline. Irinotecan increased the activity of 5-FU, the active metabolite of capecitabine, and overcomes the negative effect of thymidylate synthase overexpression, which is the main target of an active metabolite of 5-FU. A phase II study that evaluated the efficacy and safety of irinotecan and capecitabin combination (IX) showed that the median progression free survival (PFS) was 7.6 months (95% CI, 5.0-10.2months), and the median OS was 22.6 months (95% CI, 15.4 – 29.8 months) with good tolerability in anthracycline and taxane pretreated MBC patients. Based on these results, we planned to conduct a multicenter, randomized phase III study which assesses the efficacy of irinotecan and capecitabine combination therapy compared with capecitabine alone in patients with anthracycline and taxane resistant MBC. Methods: In this trial, patients with HER2 normal tumor who previously received anthracycline and taxane based chemotherapies are enrolled. Eligible patients are randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive irinotecan plus capecitabine or capecitabine alone. The primary end point of this trial is PFS and a total number of accrual patients will be 222. Randomization is done using a random block size permutation method and stratified by hormone receptor status (negative vs. positive), first line vs. ≥second lines, visceral metastasis (negative vs. positive). Patients receive irinotecan at 80 mg/m2 on day 1 and 8 every 3 weeks and capecitabine 1000mg/m2 bid from day 1 to day 14 every 3 weeks. In control arm, patients receive capecitabine 1250mg/m2 bid from day 1 to day 14 every 3 weeks. Response will be assessed using RECIST1.1 criteria and toxicity will be graded according to NCI-CTCAE 4.0 criteria. Study Status: A total of 107 patients consented for the study since June 2011, and accrual is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT01501669.

    Abstract: Background: The breast cancer-related lymphedema (LE) has been known to be closely related to axillary lymph nodes dissection (ALND), chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. In this study, we evaluated whether the sequence of systemic chemotherapy and surgery could be a predictive factor in stage II/III breast cancer. Methods and Materials: A total of 867 patients with stage II/III breast cancer, who underwent curative surgery with adequate systemic therapy from 2004 to 2009, were retrospectively analyzed. Adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT) was performed in 571 patients (65.9%) and preoperative systemic chemotherapy (PSC) in 296 (34.1%). We evaluated the incidence of LE by clinicopathologic factors and treatments. Results: At a median follow-up of 5.1 years (range, 3.0-8.3 years), 360 patients (41.5%) had experienced LE, 244 patients have retained LE (permanent LE), and 116 patents were normalized. The overall 5-year cumulative incidence of LE was 17%. LE occurred in 188 patients (32.9%) in patients with ACT, 172 patients (58.1%) with PSC (P & lt;0.001), permanent LE in 121 (21.2%) with ACT, 123 (41.6%) with PSC (P & lt;0.001), respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that PSC (hazard ratio [HR], 1.65; P & lt;.001), radiotherapy (HR, 2.24; P & lt;0.01), ALND (HR, 1.41; P = 0.04), and nodal stage (HR, 1.93; P = 0.04) were independent risk factors for LE occurrence. For the permanent LE, PSC (HR, 1.44; P = 0.05), radiotherapy (HR, 2.79; P & lt;0.01), ALND (HR, 1.77; P & lt;0.01), and nodal stage (HR, 3.01; P = 0.02) showed the associations. Conclusions: The risk factors associated with LE were advanced stage, ALND and radiotherapy. PSC was one of predictors for transients LE. However, further evaluation should be done whether it is a risk factor for permanent LE. This research was supported by National Cancer Center Grant NCC-1210181-2 by the National Cancer Center, Republic of Korea. Citation Information: Cancer Res 2013;73(24 Suppl): Abstract nr P3-08-14.

    Abstract: Background: Obesity is one of the well-known cause and prognostic factor of breast cancer. Body mass index (BMI) is often used to estimate the magnitude of obesity. Currently, muscle weight itself, instead of higher BMI, is more closely related to poor outcomes in chronic metabolic disease. However, this question was not thoroughly questioned in breast cancer survivors. We aim to find out whether the prognosis of breast cancer survivors is affected by muscle mass and fat volume. We also present that the higher muscle mass and muscle fat ratio do have a good influence on the prognosis. Methods and Materials: Between January, 2001, and December, 2009, all consecutive patients diagnosed the breast cancer in National cancer center, Republic of Korea were 3909. Of all populations, the patients who had available chest Computed Tomography (CT) images within two years after the time of diagnosis were extracted. CT images were analyzed for total skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in cross-sectional area of 10mm thickness at level 3 of the lumbar vertebrae. Results: Of all consecutive 3909 patients, final eligible cases were 1493. The median age was 46.0 (range 25∼77). Median follow up period was 96.8 months and the 5 year survival rate was 96.5%. Recurrence free survival rate was 92.1%, and local recurrence free survival was 98.6% in 5 years. Median skeletal muscle volume of all patients was 93.3cc (range 39.6∼236.9). Median fat volume of the same sections was 419.7cc (range 19.5∼1392.3) and the median muscle-fat ratio was 0.22 (0.08∼3.18). There is no known standard value of muscle mass in Korean women, the median volume was used as an indicator for comparison of two groups in terms of overall survival and recurrence free survival. The group with muscle volume greater than median value appeared better outcomes in overall survival and recurrence free survival than those of the other group (p=0.007, p=0.019). There were several factors related to overall survival and recurrence free survival such as age, operation types, clinical stage, pathologic stage, and tumor size in univariate cox regression analysis. In multivariate analysis by adjusting those factors, the muscle volume showed a remarkable correlation with survival, especially in recurrence free survival (Hazard ratio 0.61, p=0.029). As the indicator using with median muscle-fat ratio, the analysis revealed that overall survival had no significant difference (p=0.177) between two groups. However, the group with higher muscle-fat ratio showed better recurrence free survival and local recurrence free survival (p-value & lt;0.0001, 0.038 respectively). Conclusions: Our study showed that the actual amount of skeletal muscle rather than fat volume has higher effect on the prognosis of breast cancer survivors. In our knowledge, this is the largest study to analyze the prognosis of breast cancer with skeletal muscle volume. In view of the different magnitude of obesity among multiple ethnics, the actual muscle mass could be the most important parameter to assess the amount of exercise and patient's health status.

    Abstract: Background: Ki-67 has been increasingly used as a prognostic marker in spite of debates on the evaluation methods and inconsistent results on its clinical values. CKAP2 is a microtubule-associated protein which plays key roles in microtubule assembly and disassembly. In the present study, the clinical significance of CKAP2-positive cells was evaluated and compared with the results of Ki-67 positive cells. Methods: A total of 579 early breast cancer patients who underwent surgery at the National Cancer Center Hospital between 2001 and 2005 were accrued. The proliferation activity was measured by CKAP2-positive cell count (CPCC) and Ki-67 labeling index (Ki-67 LI) using CKAP2 and Ki-67 antibodies, respectively, by immunohistochemcial staining on FFPE tumor tissue. The correlation of CPCC or Ki-67 LI with recurrence free survival (RFS) was analyzed. The immunofluorescent staining was performed on HeLa cells after synchronization by double thymidine block to compare the patterns between CKAP2 and Ki-67. Results: The CPCC (median, 8 with the range of 0- 170) and Ki-67 LI (median, 10.2 with the range of 0%- 91.7%) were highly correlated (R = 0.754, P & lt; 0.001). While CPCC was marginally significant in multivariate analysis for RFS in all cases, it was a significant variable for RFS in the subset analysis with HER2-negative luminal breast cancer patients (HR, 3.154; 95% CI, 1.154-10.693; P = 0.027). On the contrary, Ki-67 LI failed to show any correlation with RFS in all or any subgroups. In the analysis on HeLa cells, CKAP2 staining was more specific to cells in metaphase than Ki-67 staining. Conclusions: CPCC can be an independent prognostic factor specifically in a HER2-negative luminal type of breast cancer. In addition, CPCC appears to be superior to Ki-67 LI as a survival indicator which may be related to the restricted expression pattern of CKAP2 in metaphase cells. Further study is warranted.

    Abstract: Background: We aimed to evaluate the clinicopathologic factors affecting locoregional recurrence (LRR) in potentially operable breast cancer patients receiving preoperative systemic chemotherapy (PST).Methods: We reviewed the records of 316 breast cancer patients treated with PST (doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide, 101; docetaxel /capecitabine, 103; paclitaxel/gemcitabine, 43; doxorubicin/docetaxel, 69) followed by surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy between 2002 and 2006. The majority of patients had clinical positive axillary lymph nodes. To define the prognostic factors for LRR, age, clinical stage, hormone receptor (HR) and HER2 status, clinical and pathologic response, type of operation, pathological characteristics including tumor size, tumor grade, nodal status, number of positive axillary nodes, size of metastatic lymph node and status of resection margin and tumor multiplicity before and after PST were analyzed.Results: Overall 52 patients (16.5%) in the primary tumor and 87 patients (27.5%) in the axillary nodes achieved a pathologic complete response (pCR), and 206 patients (65.2%) underwent breast conserving surgery (BCS). With a median follow-up of 52.4 month (range: 4.7 - 89.4), total 18 (5.7%) patients developed LRR; 2 of 110 (1.8%) patients with mastectomy vs. 16 of 206 (7.7%) patients with BCS (p=0.04). Other significant factors in the univariate analysis were clinical T stage, HR status, clinical response and tumor multiplicity. A pCR in the primary tumor or node was not a prognostic factor for LRR in this study. In multivariate analysis, clinical T stage (T3/4, HR 7.8; 95% CI, 2.33-26.24; P=0.001), hormone receptor status (negative, HR 6.2; 95% CI, 1.91-20.22; P=0.002) and type of surgery (BCS, HR 9.5; 95% CI, 1.97-46.37; P=0.005) were independent prognostic factors. Among patients with BCS, advanced clinical T stage (HR 12.4; 95% CI, 3.45-44.56; P & lt;0.001), negative hormone receptor (HR 4.74; 95% CI, 1.33-16.96; P=0.02), non-responding disease (HR 6.54; 95% CI, 1.07-40.12; P=0.04) and multiple tumors (HR 4.36; 95% CI, 1.06-17.90; P=0.04) developed more frequent LRR.Conclusions: Significantly more patients with advanced clinical T stage, negative HR status and BCS developed LRR in operable breast cancer treated with PST. Moreover, in patients with BCS after PST, clinically non-responding disease and multiple tumors showed unfavorable prognosis besides the larger tumors and negative hormone receptor.Partly supported by NCC Grant No 0610240 Citation Information: Cancer Res 2009;69(24 Suppl):Abstract nr 1095.

    Abstract: Purpose We investigated whether the combination of irinotecan plus capecitabine improved progression free survival (PFS) compared with capecitabine alone in patients with HER2 negative MBC previously exposed to anthracyclines and taxanes. Patients and methods A total of 211 patients were randomly assigned to irinotecan (80mg/m2 on D1 and D8) and capecitabine (1,000mg/m2 bid on D1 to D14) or capecitabine alone (1,250mg/m2 bid on D1 to D14) every 3 weeks. The primary objective was PFS; secondary objectives included overall response rate, overall survival and safety. Results Both arms were well balanced in terms of age, hormone receptor status, visceral involvement, and number of previous treatment. There was no significant difference in PFS between the combination and capecitabine monotherapy arm (median, 6.6 vs. 5.3 months; HR=0.87; 95% CI, 0.65 to 1.16; P=0.33). In patients with triple negative breast cancer (N=87), the combination treatment significantly improved PFS (median, 4.8 vs. 2.8 months; HR=0.59 ; 95% CI, 0.37 to 0.94; P=0.03). Overall response rate was higher in the combination arm though it did not reach statistical significance (42.7% vs. 29.6%, P=0.06). Overall survival did not differ between two groups (median, 2.2 vs. 1.7 years; P=0.47). Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia occurred in 39.6% in the combination arm and 10% in the monotherapy arm. Hand-foot syndrome (≥ grade 2) was more common in the monotherapy arm (23.0% vs. 12.6%). Table 1.

    Abstract: Background The continuum of anti-HER2 agents is regarded as a standard strategy for HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer patients who had progressed disease with anti-HER2 agent- containing treatments. However, there has been lack of data on which agents should be continued and how long continuous anti-HER2 therapies would be effective. This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of lapatinib plus vinorelbine in HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer patients who had progressed on both trastuzumab and lapatinib treatments. Methods A total of 149 patients were randomly assigned to lapatinib with vinorelbine (LV) (n=75; laptinib, 1000mg daily ; vinorelbine 20mg/m2 D1,D8 q3w) or vinorelbine alone (V) (n=74; 30mg/m2 D1,D8 q3w). The stratification factors were followings; 1) visceral metastasis, 2) previous response to lapatinib treatment, CR+PR vs. SD ≥ 12 weeks. The primary endpoint was progression free survival (PFS) rate at 18 weeks. The secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), PFS, and overall survival (OS). Results : Both arms were well balanced in various clinical factors. The median number of previous anti-HER2 therapies were 2 (range 2-5). There was no significant difference in PFS rate at 18 weeks between LV and V arms (44.0% vs 36.5%, p=0.44). ORR was 19.7% in LV arm and 16.9% in V arm (p=0.881). PFS and OS did not differ between two arms (LV vs V; median PFS, 16weeks vs 12 weeks, HR= 0.86, 95% CI 0.61-1.22, p=0.41; median OS, 15.0 months vs 18.9 months, HR= 1.07, 95% CI 0.72-1.58, p=0.72). In subgroup analysis, there was no difference in PFS and OS between two arms according to previous response to lapatinib (median PFS, CR+PR vs. SD ≥ 12 weeks, 12.1weeks vs.17.4 weeks; HR= 1.242, 95% CI 0.881-1.751, p=0.215; median OS, 14.9 months vs. 19.4 months; HR= 1.179, 95% CI 0.797-1.744, p=0.41). Most common adverse events in both arms were neutropenia which was more often observed in V arm (55% vs 73%, p=0.03). Overall, the profiles of adverse events were similar in both arms and all were manageable. Conclusion Lapatinib plus vinorelbine treatment was tolerable, however, it did not demonstrate the clinical benefits compared to vinorelbine alone in HER2 positive metastatic breast cancer patients after progression on both trastuzumab and lapatinib.
