Potentially targetable GAs in National Comprehensive Cancer Network NSCLC genes (30%) or intermediate or high TMB (43%, >10 mutations per Mb) were identified in most of the PSC cases. Thus, the use of comprehensive genomic profiling in clinical care may provide important treatment options for a historically poorly characterized and difficult to treat disease.

BackgroundAPF530, a novel extended-release granisetron injection, was superior to ondansetron in a guideline-recommended three-drug regimen in preventing delayed-phase chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) among patients receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC) in the double-blind Phase III Modified Absorption of Granisetron In the prevention of CINV (MAGIC) trial.Patients and methodsThis MAGIC post hoc analysis evaluated CINV prevention efficacy and safety of APF530 versus ondansetron, each with fosaprepitant and dexamethasone, in patient subgroup receiving an anthracycline plus cyclophosphamide (AC) regimen. Patients were randomized 1:1 to APF530 500 mg subcutaneously (granisetron 10 mg) or ondansetron 0.15 mg/kg intravenously (IV) (≤16 mg); stratification was by planned cisplatin ≥50 mg/m2 (yes/no). Patients were to receive fosaprepitant 150 mg IV and dexamethasone 12 mg IV on day 1, then dexamethasone 8 mg orally once daily on day 2 and twice daily on days 3 and 4. Patients were mostly younger females (APF530 arm, mean age 54.1 years, female, 99.3%; ondansetron arm, 53.8 years, female 98.3%). The primary end point was delayed-phase (>24–120 hours) complete response (CR).ResultsAPF530 versus ondansetron regimens achieved numerically better CINV control in delayed and overall (0–120 hours) phases for CR, complete control, total response, rescue medication use, and proportion with no nausea. APF530 trends are consistent with the overall population, although not statistically superior given the underpowered AC subgroup analysis. The APF530 regimen in this population was generally well tolerated, with safety comparable to that of the overall population.ConclusionAPF530 plus fosaprepitant and dexamethasone effectively prevented CINV among patients receiving AC-based HEC, a large subgroup in whom CINV control has traditionally been challenging.

e12657 Background: Over the last decade, there has been incredible progress in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with the adoption of targeted therapies like Trastuzumab and Pertuzumab to complement existing chemotherapies. Increasingly neoadjuvant therapy is the preferred method of therapy as it is better able to predict prognosis via pCR as well as guide adjuvant therapeutic strategy in cases with residual tumor. There are now a variety of combination therapies recommended for HER2-positive patients. As new therapies are developed, the standard-of-care shifts towards the regimen with highest pCR rate. The latest regimen being TCHP which produced pCR rates over 60% in clinical trials. While the improvement in pCR rates at a population level is encouraging, there is a growing sentiment among physicians that we may be over treating patients impacting both costs and resulting toxicity. Methods: We performed an analysis of Breast Cancer trials with pCR as the primary end point and stratification available based on HER2+ status. The cost (median insurance reimbursement) was also referenced from a recent ASCO observational study as a proxy for direct costs of drugs. Toxicities were referenced and each regimen scored (TS) from NCCN Evidence Blocks and adverse events from clinical trials. Potential savings were evaluated if a clinician had the ability to individualize regimen choice by patient. We utilized the SimBioSys TumorScope platform to perform in silico simulations to predict response to alternate therapies as it had previously used to analyze potential deescalate between AC-T vs TC in a HER2- cohort. Results: The following regimens were evaluated HP (pCR:17%,TS:1), TH (pCR: 29%,TS: 2) THP (pCR: 46%, TS: 3), TCH (pCR: 43%, TS: 4), TCHP (pCR: 64%, TS: 5), AC-TH (pCR: 43%, TS: 6), AC-THP(pCR: 55%, TS: 7). Based on an in-silico analysis and selection (where pCR was likely with multiple regimens), the lowest cost & toxicity regimen was selected. The estimated average saving per case of over $100,000 for the overall treatment plan . The calculated toxicity score was also reduced by this method to under 4 from the TCHP(5) standard of care. Conclusions: While the results above are estimates and perfection in such individualization may not be possible, an in-silico approach provides a promising solution.

RESUMOOs autores analisam os principais métodos de investigação morfofuncional da microcirculação da pele em diabéticos, tanto na literatura médica recente quanto na própria experiência em videocapilaroscopia subungueal, no âmbito dos atuais avanços do conhecimento sobre a fisiopatologia da microangiopatia diabética. Na videocapilaroscopia basal, feita na região periungueal das mãos, ressaltam a importância e a significativa prevalência das alterações morfológicas como edema, microaneurismas, tortuosidade e dilatação do segmento venoso capilar, tanto em indivíduos diabéticos quanto em parentes de 1º grau com testes de tolerância à glicose normais. Mostram o valor dos estudos das respostas dinâmicas da microcirculação à isquemia e a estí-mulos farmacológicos, observadas, sobretudo, por medidas de velocidade e/ou fluxo sangüíneo na videocapilaroscopia e dopplerfluxometria a laser, que, na maioria dos trabalhos, estavam alteradas em fases muito precoces da doença, por vasodilatação inadequada. São descritas as medidas do diâmetro e da área do segmento transverso capilar em videocapilaroscopia que podem ser úteis como parâmetros-respostas ao teste de isquemia reperfusão. Os autores discutem as bases da fisiopatologia que justificam as alterações observadas na videocapilaroscopia tanto basal como dinâmica.
