Purpose: One of substudies of the prospective trials aimed to evaluate the usefulness of serial [18F] 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose-positron emission tomography ([18F] FDG-PET) for predicting pathological complete response (pCR) in stage II/III breast cancer with preoperative chemotherapy (PST). Methods: Serial PET was undertaken in 57 breast cancer patients enrolled in three different neoadjuvant trials: 35 patients from a phase II study with paclitaxel/gemcitabine/trastuzumab with ClinicalTrial.gov NCT 00532857, 9 patients from a phase Ib study with paclitaxel/gemcitabine/lapatinib with ClinicalTrial.gov NCT 01133912, and 13 patients from a phase Ib with paclitaxel/gemcitabine/sunitinib with ClinicalTrial.gov NCT0 1070706. All patients received 6 cycles of PST followed by surgery and radiotherapy. We assessed the peak standardized uptake value (SUVp) in the primary tumor at the baseline and after the 2nd cycle (37 patients) or after completion (20 patients) of 6 cycles of PST, and calculated the reduction rate (RR) of the SUVp. Pathological response was classified into pCR and non-pCR. To compare the mean of SUVp and RR of SUVp between different response groups, two-way tables and chi-square tests were used Results: Fifteen (40.6%) of 37 patients who took repeat PET after the 2nd PST and 15 (75%) of 20 patients after completion of PST achieved a pCR with overall pCR rate of 52.6% in the primary tumor. In patients with repeat PET after the 2nd PST, post-treatment SUVp and RR of the SUVp in primary tumors were significantly different by the pathological response (post-treatment SUVp, 1.54 ± 0.63 in pCR vs 2.54 ± 1.06 in non-pCR, P=0.002; RR of the SUVp, 79.2% ± 11.9% in pCR vs 68.9% ± 15.4% in non-pCR, P=0.03). However, in patients with repeat PET after completion of PST, there were no statistical differences of these values (post-treatment SUVp, 1.09 ± 0.63 in pCR vs 1.29 ± 0.36 in non-pCR, P=0.42; RR of the SUVp, 83.7% ± 14.0% in pCR vs 67.5% ± 21.1% in non-pCR, P=0.17) Conclusions: This study demonstrated that repeat PET after the 2nd cycle of PST, not after completion of PST could predict pCR in stage II/III breast cancer with preoperative chemotherapy.

BACKGROUND Risk-reducing (RR) management decreases the risk of breast cancer and BRCA related gynecologic cancer. However, there are fewer reports on the RR management in Asia compared to Western countries.The aim of this study is to identify risk reducing management patterns with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers. METHODS The study group consisted of all consecutive 1104 breast cancer, ovarian patients and their families of high-risk patients who underwent BRCA gene testing in National Cancer Center, Korea from 2008 to 2016. A total 220 BRCA mutations (19.9%) were detected with 125(11.3%) of BRCA1 gene and 95 (8.6%) of BRCA2 gene. RESULTS Out of 220 BRCA mutations carriers, they were consisted of 83 breast cancers, 10 ovarian cancers, 7 both cancers, and 120 unaffected carriers. Among them, 42 were men and 178 were women. About 90 % (198/ 220) had the familial history of breast, ovarian or both malignancies (113 in BRCA1 and 85 in BRCA2 mutation (p=0.821)). All 42 men chose surveillance. Among 178 female BRCA mutation carriers, 98(55.1%) underwent risk reducing management including 18(10.1%) of chemoprevention, and 80(49.9%) had risk-reducing surgeries (RRSs) (1 case of risk-reducing mastectomy, 76 of risk reducing bilateral salphingo-oophorectomy (RRSO), and 3 of both) and 80 (54.9%) chose only intensive surveillance for both of breast and ovary cancer. In affected carriers with breast cancer, 59 (71.1%) underwent RR management (1 case of risk reducing mastectomy, 53 of RRSO, 3 of both surgery, and 2 of chemoprevention). There was no risk reducing management in affected carrier with ovarian cancer patients. In 78 unaffected women carriers, 39(50.0%) women received RR management (23(29.5%) cases of RRSO and 16(20.5%) cases of chemoprevention). The rates of RRSs have increased annually since the 2013 year, (prior to 2013 vs. since 2013, RRSs 28.6% (6 cases/21 carriers) vs. 37.2% (74/199), p<0.01). CONCLUSION This study was conducted on the largest numbers of BRCA mutation carriers in Asian countries. RRSO is the more preferred management for affected carriers with breast cancer or unaffected carriers. The results might be explained by the severity of the illness and that RRSO was only reimbursed RR strategy from the Korean Government Insurance. Tailored genetic counseling and insurance policy may enhance overall levels of RR management.
