    Abstract: As cancer surgery restarts after the first COVID-19 wave, health care providers urgently require data to determine where elective surgery is best performed. This study aimed to determine whether COVID-19–free surgical pathways were associated with lower postoperative pulmonary complication rates compared with hospitals with no defined pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS This international, multicenter cohort study included patients who underwent elective surgery for 10 solid cancer types without preoperative suspicion of SARS-CoV-2. Participating hospitals included patients from local emergence of SARS-CoV-2 until April 19, 2020. At the time of surgery, hospitals were defined as having a COVID-19–free surgical pathway (complete segregation of the operating theater, critical care, and inpatient ward areas) or no defined pathway (incomplete or no segregation, areas shared with patients with COVID-19). The primary outcome was 30-day postoperative pulmonary complications (pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, unexpected ventilation). RESULTS Of 9,171 patients from 447 hospitals in 55 countries, 2,481 were operated on in COVID-19–free surgical pathways. Patients who underwent surgery within COVID-19–free surgical pathways were younger with fewer comorbidities than those in hospitals with no defined pathway but with similar proportions of major surgery. After adjustment, pulmonary complication rates were lower with COVID-19–free surgical pathways (2.2% v 4.9%; adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.62; 95% CI, 0.44 to 0.86). This was consistent in sensitivity analyses for low-risk patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists grade 1/2), propensity score–matched models, and patients with negative SARS-CoV-2 preoperative tests. The postoperative SARS-CoV-2 infection rate was also lower in COVID-19–free surgical pathways (2.1% v 3.6%; aOR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.36 to 0.76). CONCLUSION Within available resources, dedicated COVID-19–free surgical pathways should be established to provide safe elective cancer surgery during current and before future SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks.

    Abstract: e14546 Background: Determination of circulating tumoral DNA (ctDNA) in plasma has recently emerged as an alternative to genomic testing in solid biopsy. Although different clínical trials have suggested that ctDNA alterations can tailor patient's treatment, its routinary utility in clinical practice is still controversial. Methods: A total of 74 consecutive plasma samples from 63 patients (pts) have been collected from October 2017 to December 2018 in our center and analyzed using two different next-generation sequencing (NGS) platforms: OncoTRACE (OT) and Guardant360 (G360). Main epidemiological, pathological and clinical data have been retrospectively extracted from medical records and correlation with ctDNA alterations have been performed using Chi-Square test. Application of liquid biopsy results has been decided after discussion in molecular tumor board and physician’s opinion. Results: OT and G360 were performed in 63 and 11 plasma samples respectively. Most part of the samples were from pancreatic (34; 45.9%) and colorrectal (CRC) (28; 25.7%) adenocarcinoma pts although biliary tract, gastric and oesophageal carcinoma pts were also included (4 each; 5.4%). Plasma samples were analyzed after progression to ≥two systemic therapies in 48.6%. At least one pathogenic alteration of ctDNA was detected in 44.6% of the samples. No correlation has been observed between presence of alteration in ctDNA and tumor origin, surgery of the primary, number and location of metastases and CEA and CA19.9. ctDNA alteration could be targetable with approved or experimental therapies in 14 pts (20.9%; 6 pts OT and 8 pts G360): 9 pts with CRC ( BRAF, EGFR, RAS, PI3KCA, PTEN), 2pts with pancreatic ( IDH1, BRCA1) and 1 pt with gastric, oesophageal and biliary tract carcinoma ( PTEN, EZH2, IDH1). However, these results have been applied in 4 pts (6% of all pts, 28.6% with targeteable ctDNA alterations): 3 pts were treatment-naïve and 1 pt had progressive disease to 2 systemic therapies. Most part of the patients with targetable alterations who did not receive treatment was due to clinical deterioration. Conclusions: Detection of alterations in ctDNA using NGS platforms is feasible in gastrointestinal tumor patients and can help physicians to decide treatment, especially in CRC. However, many patients could not be treated according to ctDNA as plasma samples were collected in late stages of the disease.

    Abstract: 229 Background: Novel agents, such as abiraterone (A), cabazitaxel (CZ), and enzalutamide are currently available for the treatment of docetaxel (D)-treated metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The sequencing approach following D progression is still unknown. We now explore which factors are driving sequencing decisions in routine clinical practice in Spain. Methods: A prospective multicenter national observational descriptive study collecting data of 2 nd line (L) treatments in mCRPC patients to analyze responses and progression to 1 st L D. Results: 149 patients have been recruited from July 2013 to January 2015. Median age was 72 (48-89). Median D cycles was 6 (1-24), and median dose: 75 mg/m 2 (30-75). 24 patients (16%) required dose reduction. The reasons for D ending were treatment completion (40%, n = 60), toxicity (15.3%, n = 23), progression (radiological, biochemical, clinical; 42%, n = 63), or others (2.7%, n = 4). 67% (n = 100) of the patients received A, 25% (n = 44) CZ, and 8% (n = 5) other treatments as 2 nd L. From those who completed or progressed to D (n = 123), 2 nd L initiation was mainly determined by two progression criteria (2C; biological and radiological), followed by one progression criteria (1C). This was independent of the 2 nd L treatment chosen, and it was observed in similar ratios in both A (2C: 50%, n = 39; 1C: 37.2%, n = 29) and CZ (2C: 62.5%, n = 25; 1C: 27.5%, n = 11). Nevertheless, A was predominantly given when patients progressed after D ending, whereas CZ was mostly given when progressing during D (Table 1). Conclusions: A is the 2 nd L treatment of choice in routine clinical practice in Spain, independent of the type and time of progression. CZ is preferentially used in patients progressing during D treatment. [Table: see text]
