    Abstract: The Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO) produced an evidence-based guideline on use of integrative therapies during and after breast cancer treatment that was determined to be relevant to the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) membership. ASCO considered the guideline for endorsement. Methods The SIO guideline addressed the use of integrative therapies for the management of symptoms and adverse effects, such as anxiety and stress, mood disorders, fatigue, quality of life, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, lymphedema, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, pain, and sleep disturbance. Interventions of interest included mind and body practices, natural products, and lifestyle modifications. SIO systematic reviews focused on randomized controlled trials that were published from 1990 through 2015. The SIO guideline was reviewed by ASCO content experts for clinical accuracy and by ASCO methodologists for developmental rigor. On favorable review, an ASCO Expert Panel was convened to review the guideline contents and recommendations. Results The ASCO Expert Panel determined that the recommendations in the SIO guideline—published in 2017—are clear, thorough, and based on the most relevant scientific evidence. ASCO endorsed the guideline with a few added discussion points. Recommendations Key recommendations include the following: Music therapy, meditation, stress management, and yoga are recommended for anxiety/stress reduction. Meditation, relaxation, yoga, massage, and music therapy are recommended for depression/mood disorders. Meditation and yoga are recommended to improve quality of life. Acupressure and acupuncture are recommended for reducing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. Acetyl-l-carnitine is not recommended to prevent chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy because of a possibility of harm. No strong evidence supports the use of ingested dietary supplements to manage breast cancer treatment–related adverse effects.

    Abstract: e24078 Background: CIPN is a common, potentially debilitating, and dose-limiting side effect experienced by cancer survivors. CIPN encompasses symptoms such as pain, numbness, and tingling, which can be measured subjectively by PRO, or semi-objectively by QST; however, little is known about how QST measures differ among patients with and without CIPN, or if QST outcomes correlate with symptom profiles measured by PRO. Methods: CIPN is a common, potentially debilitating, and dose-limiting side effect experienced by cancer survivors. CIPN encompasses symptoms such as pain, numbness, and tingling, which can be measured subjectively by PRO, or semi-objectively by QST; however, little is known about how QST measures differ among patients with and without CIPN, or if QST outcomes correlate with symptom profiles measured by PRO. Results: 116 patients with CIPN and 10 control patients without CIPN were analyzed. NRS and FACT/GOG-Ntx scores were significantly worse in the CIPN group compared to controls (all p 〈 0.001). The mean (Standard Deviation) TT for CIPN and control patients was 3.61 (0.43) and 3.38 (0.32), respectively (p = 0.059), in hands; and 3.86 (0.70) and 3.38 (0.56), respectively (p = 0.043), in feet. The mean VT was 6.06 (3.45) and 3.87 (1.01), respectively (p=0.032), in hands; and 19.14 (11.09) and 8.43 (3.22), respectively (p 〈 0.001), in feet. There was no significant difference in THT between groups. The correlation coefficients between PRO with QST measures in all patients are listed in the table below. Conclusions: Our study suggested that patients with CIPN have significantly worse symptoms and tactile and vibratory threshold measured by QST when compared with controls. Mild to moderate correlations were observed between PROs and QST, suggesting that CIPN symptoms severity correspond to sensory sensitivity. As CIPN presents a diverse range of symptoms, improved quantification of subjective and objective measures for CIPN can help the incorporation of these tools into future clinical trials.

    Abstract: e22034 Background: Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a unique subset of T lymphocytes that express markers characteristic of both T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. Following activation, iNKT cells rapidly produce a variety of cytokines and activate many other immune cells, thus iNKT cells are key mediators of innate immune responses (IIR) against tumors. The aim of this study was to assess the percentage (%) of iNKT, NKT-like, and NK cells in the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers (HV) and breast cancer (BC) patients. Methods: The % of circulating iNKT (Va24Ja18 + CD3 + ), NKT-like (CD3+CD16CD56+), and NK (CD3-CD16CD56+) cells was analyzed by standardized flow cytometry in 22 newly diagnosed stage 0-3 BC patients and 27 HV. Luminal A BC was defined as ER/PR+≥1%, HER2- Ki67 〈 20%. Differences between groups were assessed using the Mann-Whitney U test for nonparametric data and ANOVA for ≥ 3 groups. Results: iNKT cells % in BC patients (ages: 37-75) was significantly lower compared to HV (ages: 21-64) (Mean: 0.32 vs 0.12, p=0.0036). Among BC patients, NK cells were lower in patients aged ≥50 yrs (p=0.003) and with BMI ≥ 30 (p=0.0036). NK cell % was higher in Asians compared to other races. Patients with luminal A BC, which generally have the best prognosis, have a significantly higher % of NKT-like cells. Conclusions: Interestingly our data shows that older and obese BC patients have lower % of circulating NK cells, while patients with luminal A tumors have a higher % of NKT-like and a lower % of iNKT cells. Further studies on the effects of BMI and aging on IIR as well as functional studies are needed to better understand immunosenescence-related increasing incidence of cancers and IIR-mediated anti-tumor activity in BC patients.

    Abstract: e21706 Background: Up to 20% of breast cancer survivors develop breast cancer related lymphedema (BCRL), and current therapies are limited. In a previous single armed study, acupuncture appeared to reduce BCRL. In this study, we compared our specific protocol of acupuncture (AC) to usual care wait list control (WL). Methods: Women with moderate persistent BCRL were randomized to AC or WL. The AC protocol included twice-weekly manual acupuncture over 6 weeks. The primary endpoint was change in circumference difference between affected/unaffected arms. Responders were defined as having 〉 30% improvement in arm circumference difference between arms. We also evaluated the change in difference between affected/unaffected arm bioimpedance. We used analysis of covariance for circumference and bioimpedance measurements and Fisher’s exact test for proportion of responders. Results: Among 82 patients, 73 (89%) were evaluable for the primary endpoint (36 in AC and 37 in WL). The median age in AC was 65 (IQR 54, 71) and 58 (IQR 49, 70) in WL. Most patients in both arms had undergone mastectomy (74%) and axillary lymph node dissection (96%), and had a history of prior lymphedema treatment (96%). Median duration of lymphedema was 2.2 years in AC (IQR 1.3, 3.0) and 2.5 years in WL (IQR 1.4, 3.4). We found no evidence of a difference in either arm circumference difference improvement (β -0.38cm, 95% CI -0.89, 0.12, p = 0.14) or bioimpedance difference improvement (β -1.06, 95% CI -7.85, 5.72, p = 0.8) between AC and WL at Week 6. There was also no difference in proportion of responders: 17% AC vs. 11% WL (6% difference, 95% CI -10%, 22%, p = 0.5). No severe adverse events (AE) were reported. Grade 1 treatment-related AEs such as bruising (58%), hematoma (2%), and pain (2%) were reported in patients receiving AC. Among the 837 acupuncture treatments provided, one possibly related grade 2 skin infection was reported. Conclusions: Although it appears to be safe and well tolerated, our acupuncture protocol did not offer additional clinically meaningful reductions in BCRL compared with usual care among patients who had received lymphedema treatment. This regimen should not be recommended for breast cancer survivors with persistent BCRL. Clinical trial information: NCT01706081.

    Abstract: e23048 Background: Exercise is associated with improved symptoms and breast cancer (BC) survival. Little is known about personal and social factors that determine exercise participation in diverse BCS. The study seeks to characterize exercise trends and distinguish factors associated with initiating exercise among pre-diagnosis employed, non-exercising, ethnically and socioeconomically diverse BCS. Methods: BCS were recruited from academic and community medical centers. Women with stage I-III BC were surveyed during and 4 months post-completion of active treatment (surgery +/- chemo +/- radiation). The primary outcome was exercise initiation 4 months post treatment. Variables were self-reported except for clinical cancer variables, which were abstracted from the medical record. Results: Our sample (n = 494) included 22% black, 20% Chinese, 8% Korean, 27% Latina, and 21% non-Latina white women (3% other). 56% were born outside of the US; 30% reported an income 〈 200% of the federal poverty level (FPL). 72% of BCS exercised the year before diagnosis; 28% did not. Significant correlates (p 〈 0.05) of NOT exercising pre-diagnosis included lack of post-secondary education, Chinese or Korean ethnicity, lack of alcohol consumption, and lower acculturation level, resilience, and income. Among 138 non-exercisers, 63% reported exercising at follow-up. Significant correlates of exercise initiation are listed in table. In a multivariable model that included age, acculturation, job loss, insurance status, chemo-, and radiotherapy (RT), receipt of RT was significantly associated with exercise initiation (OR 3.1, 95% CI 1.4-7.1). Conclusions: A BC diagnosis may be an impetus to initiate exercise among previously sedentary, employed women. Patients who undergo radiotherapy appear to be more likely to start exercising. Additional research is needed to understand why some patients initiate exercise while others do not. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: Integrativety oncology (IO) is a “patient-centered, evidence-informed field of comprehensive cancer care that utilizes mind-body practices, natural products, and lifestyle modifications from different traditions alongside conventional cancer treatments.” There is an urgent need to educate oncology health care providers on the fundamentals of evidence-based IO to meet the needs of people with cancer. In this chapter, we aim to provide oncology professionals with actionable guidance on the basis of the Society for Integrative Oncology (SIO)-American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guidelines on integrative medicine use during oncology visits to help alleviate symptoms and side effects in people with cancer during and after treatment.

    Abstract: e20574 Background: CIPN is a common and potentially dose-limiting complication of many effective cytotoxic agents. Taxanes are the cornerstone of treatment in BC. Limited data are available regarding the prevalence and severity of DR due to CIPN following taxane use. Methods: Charts of 123 consecutive newly diagnosed BC pts treated with a taxane as part of standard neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy at the University of Maryland Greenebaum Cancer Center between 01/01/2008 and 12/31/2011 were reviewed. Treating physicians followed standard recommendations for DR. Results: Median age at diagnosis was 53 years (range, 32-78), 120 female/3 male, 48 Caucasian (C), 70 African-American (AA), 5 had a history of alcohol abuse, and 20 had a diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM). Seventy pts received docetaxel, 46 paclitaxel, 7 received both or nab-paclitaxel. Fifty (40%) pts required DR, with 21 (17%) due to CIPN and 29 (23%) due to other causes. The median relative dose intensity (received dose/planned dose) for the 21 CIPN-induced dose reduction pts was 88% (range, 62%-97%). A multivariable logistic regression model was used to compare pts who did and did not require DR based on the following possible risk factors: taxane received, DM, alcohol use, and race. Based on the effects estimated by statistical model, there was no difference between pts who did and did not undergo DR with regard to factors listed. However, diabetic pts were over twice as likely to require DR (OR = 2.4, 95% CI: 0.6-10.2, p=0.06). The univariable logistic regression model for 50 pts who had undergone DR revealed possible differences in developing CIPN between C and AA patients. The chances of DR due to CIPN are higher in AA pts (OR=4.3, 95% CI: 1.1-16.7, p=0.03). Pts who received paclitaxel are more likely to require DR due to CIPN than those treated with docetaxel (OR=10.4, 95% CI: 2.7-39.6, p=0.001). Conclusions: 1. CIPN-induced dose-reduction occurred in 17% of our study population. 2. The median relative dose intensity was 88%. 3. DM may increase the overall risk of dose reduction, and AA, paclitaxel therapy may confer a higher risk of CIPN-induced dose reduction.

    Abstract: e24067 Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and debilitating side effect of chemotherapy agents such as platinum, taxanes, vinca alkaloids, and bortezomib. Currently, as no effective prevention strategy is available, chemotherapy delay, reduction, and discontinuation are often necessary due to worsening CIPN. Our retrospective study aimed to identify patient characteristics associated with CIPN during neoadjuvant or adjuvant weekly paclitaxel chemotherapy in patients with early-stage breast cancer. Methods: We retrospectively collected baseline data from the screening phase in a phase IIA trial of weekly acupuncture intervention in women with early-stage breast cancer (ClinicalTrial.gov NCT02364726); the primary outcome was reported previously. Baseline data including age; body mass index (BMI); gender; race; CIPN severity; hemoglobin; hemoglobin A1c; TSH; vitamins B6, B12, and D levels; and anxiety and depression were retrospectively extracted from the electronic medical record (EMR) on the first day of treatment or up to four months prior to chemotherapy initiation. CIPN severity was measured by the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.0. Chemotherapy relative dose density (RDI) was calculated by total chemotherapy dose received divided by the total chemotherapy dose planned; disease recurrence and mortality rate were collected at the time of analysis. Logistic regression was used for statistical analysis. Results: A total of 105 patients’ baseline characteristics were extracted from the EMR. Baseline BMI was associated with CIPN severity (odds ratio [OR] 1.08; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.16, p= 0.04). No significant correlations were observed in other covariates. At the median follow-up of 61 months, there were 12 (11.4%) breast cancer recurrences and 8 (7.6%) breast cancer-related deaths. Chemotherapy RDI was associated with disease-free survival (DFS, OR 1.026; 95% CI 1.00-1.05; p= 0.028). Conclusions: In this retrospective analysis, increased BMI was associated with worsening CIPN severity. Chemotherapy RDI was associated with improved DFS. Our findings suggest that baseline BMI may be a risk factor for CIPN. Additionally, suboptimal chemotherapy delivery due to CIPN maybe negatively impact DFS in patients with breast cancer. Further study is warranted to identify risks for CIPN.
