Abstract
The liver is a frequent site of metastasis in advanced gastric cancer (GC). Despite significant advancements in diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, the overall survival rate for patients afflicted with gastric cancer liver metastasis (GCLM) remains dismally low. Precision oncology has made significant progress in identifying therapeutic targets and enhancing our understanding of metastasis mechanisms through genome sequencing and molecular characterization. Therefore, it is crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the various molecular processes involved in GCLM and the fundamental principles of systemic therapy to develop new treatment approaches. This paper aims to review recent findings on the diagnosis, potential biomarkers, and therapies targeting the multiple molecular processes of GCLM, with the goal of improving treatment strategies for patients with GCLM.

Measurement of changes in serum-based inflammatory indicators to monitor response to nivolumab monotherapy in advanced gastric cancer: a multicenter retrospective study. BMC Cancer 2024; 24:1121. [PMID: 39251991 PMCID: PMC11382521 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-024-12813-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonresectable gastric cancer develops rapidly; thus, monitoring disease progression especially in patients receiving nivolumab as late-line therapy is important. Biomarkers may facilitate the evaluation of nivolumab treatment response. Herein, we assessed the utility of serum-based inflammatory indicators for evaluating tumor response to nivolumab. METHODS This multicenter retrospective cohort study included 111 patients treated with nivolumab monotherapy for nonresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer from October 2017 to October 2021. We measured changes in the C-reactive protein (CRP)-to-albumin ratio (CAR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in serum from baseline to after the fourth administration of nivolumab. Furthermore, we calculated the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC ROCs) for CAR, PLR, and NLR to identify the optimal cutoff values for treatment response. We also investigated the relationship between clinicopathologic factors and disease control (complete response, partial response, and stable disease) using the chi-squared test. RESULTS The overall response rate (complete and partial response) was 11.7%, and the disease control rate was 44.1%. The median overall survival (OS) was 14.0 (95% CI 10.7‒19.2) months, and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.1 (95% CI 3.0‒5.9) months. The AUC ROCs for CAR, PLR, and NLR before nivolumab monotherapy for patients with progressive disease (PD) were 0.574 (95% CI, 0.461‒0.687), 0.528 (95% CI, 0.418‒0.637), and 0.511 (95% CI, 0.401‒0.620), respectively. The values for changes in CAR, PLR, and NLR were 0.766 (95% CI, 0.666‒0.865), 0.707 (95% CI, 0.607‒0.807), and 0.660 (95% CI 0.556‒0.765), respectively. The cutoff values for the treatment response were 3.0, 1.3, and 1.4 for CAR, PLR, and NLR, respectively. The PFS and OS were significantly longer when the treatment response values for changes in CAR, PLR, and NLR were below these cutoff values (CAR: OS, p < 0.0001 and PFS, p < 0.0001; PLR: OS, p = 0.0289 and PFS, p = 0.0302; and NLR: OS, p = 0.0077 and PFS, p = 0.0044). CONCLUSIONS Measurement of the changes in CAR, PLR, and NLR could provide a simple, prompt, noninvasive method to evaluate response to nivolumab monotherapy. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study is registered with number K2023006.

Prevalence of Gastric Precursor Lesions in Countries With Differential Gastric Cancer Burden: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 22:1605-1617.e46. [PMID: 38438000 PMCID: PMC11272442 DOI: 10.1016/j.cgh.2024.02.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2024] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The prevalence of precursor lesions for gastric cancer (GC) and the differential burden between countries of varying GC risk is not well-understood. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the global prevalence of precursor lesions. METHODS We estimated the prevalence of atrophic gastritis (AG), gastric intestinal metaplasia (IM), and dysplasia in regions with low, medium, and high GC incidence. Because IM is an advanced manifestation of AG, we assessed the prevalence of less advanced precursors, regardless of the presence of more advanced lesions. Prevalence was sub-stratified by Helicobacter pylori infection, symptomatology, and period (<2000, 2000-2010, and >2010). RESULTS Among the 582 articles that underwent full-text review, 166 studies met inclusion criteria. The global prevalence estimates of AG, IM, and dysplasia were 25.4%, 16.2%, and 2.0%, respectively, on the basis of 126 studies that reported the prevalence of less advanced precursors, regardless of the presence of more advanced lesions. The prevalence of all precursor lesions was higher in high and medium compared with low GC incidence countries (P < .01). Prevalence of AG and IM was significantly higher among H pylori-infected individuals (P < .01) but not statistically different between symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals (P > .17). All precursors demonstrated a secular decrease in prevalence over time. CONCLUSIONS Gastric precursor lesions have differences in prevalence in regions with differential GC incidence and are associated with H pylori infection. Because of the substantial prevalence of precursor lesions in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals, symptomatic evaluation may not be sufficient to identify individuals at risk. These estimates provide important insights for tailoring GC prevention strategies.

Abstract
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 1 (TREM1) elevation is associated with the unfavorable prognosis of gastric cancer (GC) patients. This work uncovered the effects and mechanism of TREM1 in GC. IHC staining examined TREM1 expression in GC tissues. TREM1-knockout and TREM1 knock-in mice were generated prior to the construction of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced GC mice model. H&E staining detected the pathological alternations of gastric tissues. IHC staining tested Ki67 expression. Wright-Giemsa staining performed neutrophil counting and flow cytometry analysis measured neutrophil infiltration. ELISA analyzed serum and tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels and serum MPO-DNA levels. Immunofluorescence, Western blotting and related kits detected NETs formation. Immunofluorescence and IHC staining evaluated macrophage polarization. In MNNG-treated GES-1 cells and phorbal myristate acetate (PMA)-treated neutrophils, TREM1 expression was also examined. CCK-8 method and Western blotting assayed cell proliferation. Western blotting and immunofluorescence detected NETs formation. Flow cytometry analysis detected the changes of macrophage typing. TREM1 was overexpressed in tumor tissues, MNNG-treated GES-1 cells and PMA-treated neutrophils. TREM1 deficiency hindered tumor growth, reduced neutrophil infiltration, NETs formation and stimulated M1 macrophage polarization in MNNG-induced GC models. Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) degrader DNase-1 countervailed the impacts of TREM1 on MNNG-induced GC models in vivo. Collectively, TREM1 knockdown obstructed NETs-mediated M2 macrophage polarization to hamper GC progression.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the short-term safety of albumin-bound paclitaxel in hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) during and after gastric cancer (GC) surgery. METHODS A retrospective analysis of clinical data was conducted for GC surgery patients at Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, from January 2020 to September 2022. The study group (n = 120) received HIPEC and the control group (n = 268) did not receive albumin-bound paclitaxel. Short-term safety indicators including intraoperative complications, hematological toxicity, liver and kidney function, and gastrointestinal function recovery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups regarding intraoperative complications, hematological toxicity, liver and kidney function, and gastrointestinal function recovery time (P > 0.05 for all). In the study group, patients were further divided into subgroups based on dose and timing. Subgroup analysis revealed no significant differences among the different dose subgroups. However, when focusing on timing subgroups, the postoperative subgroup exhibited significantly higher white blood cell counts and bilirubin levels compared to the intraoperative subgroup, while the intraoperative subgroup had significantly higher bilirubin levels compared to both postoperative and intraoperative plus postoperative subgroups. CONCLUSION Albumin-bound paclitaxel demonstrates good safety and tolerability in HIPEC during and after GC surgery, without increasing the risk of intraoperative complications.

Abstract
Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) are an emerging biomarker predictive of response to immunotherapy across a spectrum of solid organ malignancies. The characterization of TILs in gastric cancer (GC) treated with contemporary, multiagent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is understudied. In this retrospective investigation, we analyzed the degree of infiltration, phenotype, and spatial distribution of TILs via immunohistochemistry within resected GC specimens treated with or without NAC at a Western center. We hypothesized that NAC executes immunostimulatory roles, as evidenced by an increased number of anti-tumor TILs in the tumor microenvironment. We found significantly elevated levels of conventional and memory CD8+ T cells, as well as total TILs (CD4+, CD8+, Treg, B cells), within chemotherapy-treated tumors compared with chemotherapy-naïve specimens. We also revealed important associations between survival and pathologic responses with enhanced TIL infiltration. Taken together, our findings advocate for an immunostimulatory role of chemotherapy and underscore the potential synergistic effect of combining chemotherapy with immunotherapy in resectable gastric cancer.

Bone metastasis is a late-onset and unfavorable event in survivors of gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy: Results from a clinical observational cohort. CANCER PATHOGENESIS AND THERAPY 2024; 2:50-57. [PMID: 38188221 PMCID: PMC10768531 DOI: 10.1016/j.cpt.2023.11.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 11/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
Background The timing and incidence of recurrent bone metastasis (BM) after radical gastrectomy in patients with gastric cancer (GC) as well as the survival of these patients were not fully understood. The aim of this study was to analyze the data of an observational GC cohort and identify patients who underwent curative gastrectomy and had recurrent BM to describe and clarify the pattern and profile of BM evolution after surgery. Methods Data were retrieved from a hospital-based GC cohort, and patients who underwent upfront radical gastrectomy were selected. The time points of specific organ metastatic events were recorded, and the person-year incidence rate of metastatic events was calculated. The latency period of BM events after gastrectomy was measured and compared with that of the other two most common metastatic events, liver metastasis (LM) and distant lymph node metastasis (LNM), using analysis of variance. Propensity score matching and subgroup analysis were used for sensitivity analysis. Results A total of 1324 GC cases underwent radical gastrectomy between January 2011 and December 2021. Of these, 67 BM, 218 LM, and 248 LNM occurred before the last follow-up. The incidence of BM events was 1.7/100 person-years, which was approximately 3-fold lower than that of LM and distant LNM events (5.5 and 6.3 per 100 person-years, respectively). BM events had a significantly longer latency (median time, 16.5 months) than LM and LNM events (11.1 and 12.0 months, respectively). Recurrent BM led to a worse prognosis (median survival, 4.5 months) than those of LM and LNM events (median survival, 7.7 and 7.1 months, respectively). However, no difference in overall survival after gastrectomy was observed among the groups. Conclusions Compared with other common metastatic events, BM in GC after gastrectomy is a late-onset event indicating poor survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is the most common site of dissemination of gastric cancer (GC) and is associated with a poor prognosis. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for GC with PM remains controversial due to modest survival and significant morbidity. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients with GC and PM treated with CRS and HIPEC with cisplatin and paclitaxel for 90 min from June 2019 to December 2022. RESULTS Twenty-two patients were included and received a median of 7 (interquartile range [IQR] 4-8) cycles of neoadjuvant systemic therapy. Seventeen patients (77%) underwent a single neoadjuvant laparoscopic HIPEC, and six (27%) patients received chemoradiation. The median Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index at the time of CRS was 1 (IQR 0-4), and 21 patients (95%) underwent complete cytoreduction (CC-0). An R0 resection was achieved in 20 (91%) patients, and the median length of stay was 5.5 (IQR 4-7.5) days. There were six (27%) 90-day major complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ 3), one (4%) Common Terminology Classification for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 4 cytopenia, and one (4%) acute kidney injury. The rate of anastomotic leak (all grades) was 14%, the 30-day readmission rate was 18%, and the 90-day mortality rate was 0%. At a median follow-up of 24 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were not reached. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates were 65%, 56%, and 40%, respectively, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were 96%, 78%, and 55%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS CRS and HIPEC with paclitaxel and cisplatin is well tolerated and is associated with favorable oncologic and perioperative outcomes.

Prognostic value of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy in gastric cancer with synchronous peritoneal metastases: a real-world retrospective study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer (GC) is a late-stage condition with a poor prognosis. Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is a popular treatment for peritoneal metastases. Here, we aim to investigate the real-world application and efficacy of HIPEC alone for GC patients with synchronous peritoneal metastases. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis on GC patients with synchronous peritoneal metastasis at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 2011 and December 2022. Survival analyses and Cox regression models were performed based on overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS), and subgroup analysis was used to determine the prognostic value of HIPEC across different treatment. RESULTS We enrolled 250 patients, of whom 120 (48%) received HIPEC while 130 (52%) did not. HIPEC showed no survival benefit for GC patients (P = 0.220 for OS and P = 0.370 for CSS). However, subgroup analysis found that HIPEC can only improve OS and CSS when combined with primary tumor resection (P = 0.034 for OS and P = 0.036 for CSS). Moreover, survival analyses also demonstrated that HIPEC independently improved OS (HR for OS = 0.58, 95% CI 0.37-0.92, P = 0.020) and CSS (HR for CSS = 0.58, 95% CI 0.37-0.93, P = 0.024) for patients who underwent primary site resection, but not for those who did not. CONCLUSION HIPEC can improve survival in GC patients with synchronous peritoneal metastases who have primary tumor resection, but not in those without primary tumor resection.

Abstract
Background and aims Palliative primary tumor resection (pPTR) can benefit colorectal cancer patients with liver metastasis. Whether pPTR benefiting gastric cancer (GC) patients with liver metastasis is still controversial. Methods Data on patients with metastatic GC diagnosed between 2010 to 2019 was extracted from SEER database. Propensity score analysis with 1:1 matching was performed. The univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to explore prognostic factors. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze survival outcomes. Results Of 5691 GC patients with liver metastasis, 468 were included in the matched cohorts. The results showed that the median survival time was 6 months in the non-surgery groups and 14.5 months in the surgery groups (p < 0.001). Multivariable analysis showed that surgery was a protective prognostic factor for overall survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 0.416] as well as cancer-specific survival (HR = 0.417). Also, pPTR was only recommended for GC patients with isolated liver metastasis. Moreover, pPTR combined with chemotherapy brought the greatest therapeutic effect. Conclusion pPTR benefits GC patients with isolated liver metastasis, and GC patients with liver metastasis receiving pPTR combined with chemotherapy had the best survival outcomes than any other therapeutic model.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Xiaotan Sanjie recipe (XTSJ), a Chinese herbal compound medicine, exerts a significant inhibitory effect on gastric cancer (GC) metastasis. This work investigated the mechanism underlying the XTSJ-mediated inhibition of GC metastasis. METHODS The effect of XTSJ on GC metastasis and the associated mechanism were investigated in vitro, using GC cell lines, and in vivo, using a GC mouse model, by focusing on the expression of Glc-N-Ac-transferase V (GnT-V; encoded by MGAT5). RESULTS The migration and invasion ability of GC cells decreased significantly after XTSJ administration, which confirmed the efficacy of XTSJ in treating GC in vitro. XTSJ increased the accumulation of E-cadherin at junctions between GC cells, which was reversed by MGAT5 overexpression. XTSJ administration and MGAT5 knockdown alleviated the structural abnormality of the cell-cell junctions, while MGAT5 overexpression had the opposite effect. MGAT5 knockdown and XTSJ treatment also significantly increased the accumulation of proteins associated with the E-cadherin-mediated adherens junction complex. Furthermore, the expression of MGAT5 was significantly lower in the lungs of BGC-823-MGAT5 + XTSJ mice than in those of BGC-823-MGAT5 + solvent mice, indicating that the ability of gastric tumors to metastasize to the lung was decreased in vivo following XTSJ treatment. CONCLUSION XTSJ prevented GC metastasis by inhibiting the GnT-V-mediated E-cadherin glycosylation and promoting the E-cadherin accumulation at cell-cell junctions.

Abstract
Metastasis of gastric cancer (GC) is one of the major causes of death among GC patients. GC metastasis involves numerous biological processes, yet the specific molecular biological mechanisms have not been elucidated. Here, we report a novel tumor suppressor, retinoic acid-induced 2 (RAI2), which is located in the Xp22 region of the chromosome and plays a role in inhibiting GC growth and invasion. In this study, integrated analysis of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets and immunohistochemistry staining data suggested that RAI2 expression in GC samples was low. Moreover, the immune infiltration analysis indicated that low expression of RAI2 in GC was associated with a higher intensity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and an abundance of Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) analysis further revealed that RAI2 regulated some pathways including the GAP junction, focal adhesion and ECM receptor interaction pathway, immune regulation, PI3K-Akt signaling, MAPK signaling, cell cycle, and DNA replication. Furthermore, the knockdown of RAI2 promoted GC cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in vitro. Taken together, these results suggest that the tumor suppressor RAI2 could be a potential target for the development of anti-cancer strategies in GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer metastatic to the extrahepatic bile duct or accompanied by portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) is rare. To our knowledge, there have been no cases complicated with both of these factors. CASE PRESENTATION A 72-year-old man presented with icterus and melena. A biochemical blood test showed abnormal values for hepatobiliary enzymes and a tumor marker, and abdominal computed tomography scan revealed wall thickening of the lower bile duct with intra- and extra-hepatic bile duct dilatation and PVTT. A biopsy of the lower bile duct during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography demonstrated a moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. Moreover, gastroduodenoscopy showed a type 3 tumor at the lesser curvature of the gastric antrum, and an endoscopic biopsy demonstrated a moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. We diagnosed concomitant gastric cancer and distal bile duct accompanied by PVTT, and pancreatoduodenectomy with combined resection of the portal vein was performed. The resected specimen revealed a tumor in the lesser curvature of the gastric antrum and circumferential wall thickening in the lower bile duct. In pathological findings, infiltration of a moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma from the mucosal layer to the subserosal layer of the stomach was observed. In contrast, a moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma demonstrating the same histological type as the gastric cancer had spread not to the mucosal layer but mainly to the fibromuscular layer of the lower bile duct. Immunohistochemical staining showed identical patterns between gastric cancer and the bile duct tumor: negativity for cytokeratin 7 (CK7), and positivity for CK19 and 20. Therefore, the final diagnosis was extrahepatic bile duct metastasis from gastric cancer with PVTT. Unfortunately, multiple liver metastases occurred in the early postoperative period and chemotherapy was conducted, but the patient died 12 months after the surgery. CONCLUSIONS In the diagnosis of extrahepatic bile duct metastasis, immunohistochemical staining of gastric cancer and the bile duct tumor was essential and helpful as decisive evidence.

Pužar Dominkuš P, Hudler P. Mutational Signatures in Gastric Cancer and Their Clinical Implications. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:3788. [PMID: 37568604 PMCID: PMC10416847 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15153788] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Gastric cancer is characterised by high inter- and intratumour heterogeneity. The majority of patients are older than 65 years and the global burden of this disease is increasing due to the aging of the population. The disease is usually diagnosed at advanced stages, which is a consequence of nonspecific symptoms. Few improvements have been made at the level of noninvasive molecular diagnosis of sporadic gastric cancer, and therefore the mortality rate remains high. A new field of mutational signatures has emerged in the past decade with advances in the genome sequencing technology. These distinct mutational patterns in the genome, caused by exogenous and endogenous mutational processes, can be associated with tumour aetiology and disease progression, and could provide novel perception on the treatment possibilities. This review assesses the mutational signatures found in gastric cancer and summarises their potential for use in clinical setting as diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers. Associated treatment options and biomarkers already implemented in clinical use are discussed, together with those that are still being explored or are in clinical studies.

[PMID: 37509642 PMCID: PMC10377298 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines11072003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Revised: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, many studies have explored the relationship between the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and prognosis in gastric cancer, but there is still controversy. Additionally, few studies have specifically investigated the expression of PD-L1 in patients with peritoneal metastasis. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the expression of PD-L1 in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis. The combined positive score (CPS) was calculated to evaluate the expression of PD-L1, and the clinicopathological data were analyzed to explore prognostic significance. RESULTS In total, 147 gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis were enrolled. The negative PD-L1 expression was defined as a CPS < 1, and high PD-L1 expression was defined as a CPS ≥ 10. PD-L1 expression with CPS ≥ 1 and CPS-negative was detected in 67 (45.58%) and 80 (54.42%) patients, respectively. High PD-L1 expression at PD-L1 CPS ≥ 10 was detected in 21(14.29%) patients. The median overall survival (OS) was 18.53 months in the CPS < 10 group and 27.00 months in the CPS ≥ 10 group; the OS difference between the two groups was significant (p = 0.015). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that a poor Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score (ECOG PS) (p = 0.002) and severe peritoneal metastasis (p = 0.033) were significantly associated with poor survival, while palliative chemotherapy (p = 0.002) and high PD-L1 expression (p = 0.008) were independent and significantly favorable prognostic factors. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrated that PD-L1 expression was widely presented in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis, while a CPS no less than 10 predicted better prognosis.

Development of the oncolytic virus, CF33, and its derivatives for peritoneal-directed treatment of gastric cancer peritoneal metastases. J Immunother Cancer 2023; 11:e006280. [PMID: 37019471 PMCID: PMC10083877 DOI: 10.1136/jitc-2022-006280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric cancer (GC) that metastasizes to the peritoneum is fatal. CF33 and its genetically modified derivatives show cancer selectivity and oncolytic potency against various solid tumors. CF33-hNIS and CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 have entered phase I trials for intratumoral and intravenous treatments of unresectable solid tumors (NCT05346484) and triple-negative breast cancer (NCT05081492). Here, we investigated the antitumor activity of CF33-oncolytic viruses (OVs) against GC and CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 in the intraperitoneal (IP) treatment of GC peritoneal metastases (GCPM). METHODS We infected six human GC cell lines AGS, MKN-45, MKN-74, KATO III, SNU-1, and SNU-16 with CF33, CF33-GFP, or CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 at various multiplicities of infection (0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10.0), and performed viral proliferation and cytotoxicity assays. We used immunofluorescence imaging and flow cytometric analysis to verify virus-encoded gene expression. We evaluated the antitumor activity of CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 following IP treatment (3×105 pfu × 3 doses) in an SNU-16 human tumor xenograft model using non-invasive bioluminescence imaging. RESULTS CF33-OVs showed dose-dependent infection, replication, and killing of both diffuse and intestinal subtypes of human GC cell lines. Immunofluorescence imaging showed virus-encoded GFP, hNIS, and anti-PD-L1 antibody scFv expression in CF33-OV-infected GC cells. We confirmed GC cell surface PD-L1 blockade by virus-encoded anti-PD-L1 scFv using flow cytometry. In the xenograft model, CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 (IP; 3×105 pfu × 3 doses) treatment significantly reduced peritoneal tumors (p<0.0001), decreased amount of ascites (62.5% PBS vs 25% CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1) and prolonged animal survival. At day 91, seven out of eight mice were alive in the virus-treated group versus one out of eight in the control group (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Our results show that CF33-OVs can deliver functional proteins and demonstrate effective antitumor activity in GCPM models when delivered intraperitoneally. These preclinical results will inform the design of future peritoneal-directed therapy in GCPM patients.

Association Between Metastatic Pattern and Prognosis in Stage IV Gastric Cancer: Potential for Stage Classification Reform. Ann Surg Oncol 2023:10.1245/s10434-023-13287-9. [PMID: 36869917 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-13287-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 03/05/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aims to clarify the association between metastatic pattern and prognosis in stage IV gastric cancer, with a focus on patients presenting with metastases limited to nonregional lymph nodes. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, the National Cancer Database was used to identify patients ≥ 18 years of age diagnosed with stage IV gastric cancer between 2016 and 2019. Patients were stratified according to pattern of metastatic disease at diagnosis: nonregional lymph nodes only ("stage IV-nodal"), single systemic organ ("stage IV-single organ"), or multiple organs ("stage IV-multi-organ"). Survival was assessed by Kaplan-Meier curves and multivariable Cox models in unadjusted and propensity score-matched samples. RESULTS Overall, 15,050 patients were identified, including 1,349 (8.7%) stage IV-nodal patients. Most patients in each group received chemotherapy [68.6% of stage IV-nodal patients, 65.2% of stage IV-single organ patients, and 63.5% of stage IV-multi-organ patients (p = 0.003)]. Stage IV-nodal patients exhibited better median survival (10.5 months, 95% CI 9.7-11.9, p < 0.001) than single organ (8.0, 95% CI 7.6-8.2) and multi-organ (5.7, 95% CI 5.4-6.0) patients. In the multivariable Cox model, stage IV-nodal patients also exhibited better survival (HR 0.79, 95% CI 0.73-0.85, p < 0.001) than single organ (reference) and multi-organ (HR 1.27, 95% CI 1.22-1.33, p < 0.001) patients. CONCLUSIONS Nearly 9% of clinical stage IV gastric cancer patients have their distant disease confined to nonregional lymph nodes. These patients were managed similarly to other stage IV patients but experienced a better prognosis, suggesting opportunities to introduce M1 staging subclassifications.

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:173-178. [PMID: 36064631 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2022.08.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 07/22/2022] [Accepted: 08/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To understand the tumor burden of peritoneal metastases (PM) in China, and to guide the construction of professional PM treatment centers in China. METHODS Based on the cancer statistics by the National Cancer Center of China published in 2016, the prevalence of PM in 2020 was calculated according to the population statistics in China and the survival and mortality rates of various PM. RESULTS The prevalence rates of PM in China were as follows: gastric cancer PM 371.0/million, absolute number 523,937; colorectal cancer PM 47.1/million, absolute number 66,482; ovarian cancer PM 97.1/million, absolute number 137,083; pseudomyxoma peritonei 25.1/million, absolute number 35,425; malignant peritoneal mesothelioma 2.6/million, absolute number 3737; the above total was 766,664. According to the annual high-quality treatment volume of 365 cases in each professional PM treatment center, China needs to establish 1194 specialized PM treatment centers. At present, there are 1580 tertiary first-class hospitals in China. Therefore, for every 3 first-class tertiary hospitals in China there should be at least 2 PM treatment centers in full operation. CONCLUSIONS Considering the large number of PM patients in China and the relatively small number of professional PM treatment centers, more resources should be devoted to the promotion and construction of PM treatment centers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenocarcinoma of the proximal stomach is the fastest rising malignancy in North America. It is commonly associated with peritoneal accumulation of malignant ascites (MA), a fluid containing cancer and inflammatory cells and soluble proteins. Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is the most common site of gastric cancer (GC) progression after curative-intent surgery and is the leading cause of death among GC patients. METHODS/RESULTS Using a panel of gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines (human: MKN 45, SNU-5; murine: NCC-S1M), we demonstrate that prior incubation of GC cells with MA results in a significant (> 1.7-fold) increase in the number of cells capable of adhering to human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMC) (p < 0.05). We then corroborate these findings using an ex vivo PM model and show that MA also significantly enhances the ability of GC cells to adhere to strips of human peritoneum (p < 0.05). Using a multiplex ELISA, we identify MIF and VEGF as consistently elevated across MA samples from GC patients (p < 0.05). We demonstrate that agents that block the effects of MIF or VEGF abrogate the ability of MA to stimulate the adhesion of GC cells to adhere to human peritoneum and promote both ex vivo and in vivo metastases. CONCLUSION Agents targeting MIF or VEGF may be relevant to the treatment or prevention of PM in GC patients.
