Abstract
The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the impact of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) in combination with non-intensive chemotherapy in older unfit patients (> 60 years) with newly diagnosed NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia. Patients were randomized (1:1) to low-dose chemotherapy with or without open-label ATRA 45 mg/m2, days 8-28; the dose of ATRA was reduced to 45 mg/m2, days 8-10 and 15 mg/m2, days 11-28 after 75 patients due to toxicity. Up to 6 cycles of cytarabine 20 mg/day s.c., bid, days 1-7 and etoposide 100 mg/day, p.o. or i.v., days 1-3 with (ATRA) or without ATRA (CONTROL) were intended. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Between May 2011 and September 2016, 144 patients (median age, 77 years; range, 64-92 years) were randomized (72, CONTROL; 72, ATRA). Baseline characteristics were balanced between the two study arms. The median number of treatment cycles was 2 in ATRA and 2.5 in CONTROL. OS was significantly shorter in the ATRA compared to the CONTROL arm (p = 0.023; median OS: 5 months versus 9.2 months, 2-years OS rate: 7% versus 10%, respectively). Rates of CR/CRi were not different between treatment arms; infections were more common in ATRA beyond treatment cycle one. The addition of ATRA to low-dose cytarabine plus etoposide in an older, unfit patient population was not beneficial, but rather led to an inferior outcome.The clinical trial is registered at clinicaltrialsregister.eu (EudraCT Number: 2010-023409-37, first posted 14/12/2010).

Abstract
Cancer-associated gene fusions are a potential source for highly immunogenic neoantigens, but the lack of computational tools for accurate, sensitive identification of personal gene fusions has limited their targeting in personalized cancer immunotherapy. Here we present EasyFuse, a machine learning computational pipeline for detecting cancer-specific gene fusions in transcriptome data obtained from human cancer samples. EasyFuse predicts personal gene fusions with high precision and sensitivity, outperforming previously described tools. By testing immunogenicity with autologous blood lymphocytes from patients with cancer, we detected pre-established CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses for 10 of 21 (48%) and for 1 of 30 (3%) identified gene fusions, respectively. The high frequency of T cell responses detected in patients with cancer supports the relevance of individual gene fusions as neoantigens that might be targeted in personalized immunotherapies, especially for tumors with low mutation burden.

Abstract
Background Data on the impact of the cumulative percutaneous left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) caseload on cardiovascular outpatient and hospitalisation costs are limited. Methods The present single-institution analysis includes patients treated consecutively from the beginning of our LAAC experience in January 2012 until December 2016. Pre- and post-LAAC costs for hospitalisation and ambulatory visits were included. Results A total of 676 patients underwent percutaneous LAAC (using the Watchman device): 49 (2012), 78 (2013), 211 (2014), 210 (2015), and 129 (2016). LAAC procedural costs were stable over the years (overall median €9639; 2012: €9630; 2013: €10,003; 2014: €9841; 2015: €9394; 2016: €9530; p = 0.8) and there was no correlation between cumulative caseload and procedural costs (p = 0.9). Although annualised cardiovascular management costs after LAAC were lower than before LAAC (median difference between pre-LAAC and post-LAAC yearly costs: €727; 2012: €235; 2013: €1187; 2014: €716; 2015: €527; 2016: €1052; p = 0.5 among years analysed) from the beginning of the cumulative procedural experience, a significant reduction in costs was observed only from 2014 onwards. Institutional cumulative LAAC caseload and year of procedure were not related to the amount of reduction in the costs for cardiovascular care. Conclusion LAAC led to cost-of-care savings from the beginning of our institutional procedural experience.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Inflammaging is considered a driver of age-related loss of muscle mass and function (sarcopenia). As nutrition might play a role in this process, the Dietary Inflammatory Index® (DII) has been developed to quantify the inflammatory potential of an individual diet. OBJECTIVES We aimed to examine associations between the DII, inflammation, oxidative stress and sarcopenia-related parameters in healthy old compared to young adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cross-sectional study included data of 79 community-dwelling, healthy old adults (65-85 years) and 59 young adults (18-35 years) who participated in a randomized controlled trial from April to December 2019. MEASUREMENTS The DII was computed with dietary data collected from 24-h recall interviews. Associations between the DII, inflammatory and oxidative stress markers as well as bioimpedance-derived body composition, handgrip strength and gait speed were determined with multiple linear regression analyses adjusted for age, sex, physical activity and insulin resistance. RESULTS Regression analyses revealed significant relationships between a higher interleukin (IL) 6 and IL-6:IL-10-ratio and higher percentage fat mass (%FM), waist-to-height-ratio (WHtR) as well as lower percentage skeletal muscle mass (%SMM) and gait speed exclusively in old adults. Subsequent analyses showed that IL-6 was associated with a pro-inflammatory diet as indicated by a higher DII, again exclusively in old adults (beta coefficient (β)= 0.027, standard error (SE) 0.013, p=0.037). While the DII was not related with handgrip strength or oxidative stress in neither old nor young adults, linear models confirmed that a higher DII was inversely associated with gait speed in old participants (β= -0.022, SE 0.006, p<0.001). Finally, a pro-inflammatory diet was significantly associated with higher %FM, WHtR and lower %SMM in both age groups. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE A pro-inflammatory diet reflected by the DII is associated with higher systemic inflammation, slower gait speed as well as lower muscle mass in old adults. Intervention studies are needed to examine whether anti-inflammatory dietary approaches can help to improve muscle mass and function and thus minimize the risk for sarcopenia in the long-term.

Abstract
α-RuCl3 is a major candidate for the realization of the Kitaev quantum spin liquid, but its zigzag antiferromagnetic order at low temperatures indicates deviations from the Kitaev model. We have quantified the spin Hamiltonian of α-RuCl3 by a resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study at the Ru L3 absorption edge. In the paramagnetic state, the quasi-elastic intensity of magnetic excitations has a broad maximum around the zone center without any local maxima at the zigzag magnetic Bragg wavevectors. This finding implies that the zigzag order is fragile and readily destabilized by competing ferromagnetic correlations. The classical ground state of the experimentally determined Hamiltonian is actually ferromagnetic. The zigzag state is stabilized by quantum fluctuations, leaving ferromagnetism – along with the Kitaev spin liquid – as energetically proximate metastable states. The three closely competing states and their collective excitations hold the key to the theoretical understanding of the unusual properties of α-RuCl3 in magnetic fields. RuCl3 has stood out as a prime candidate in the search for quantum spin liquids; however, its antiferromagnetic ordering at low temperature suggests deviations from typical QSL models. Here, using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering, the authors provide a comprehensive determination of the low energy effective Hamiltonian.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The improved efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) mandates reappraisal of local therapy (LT) for brain metastases (BM) of oncogene-driven non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included all epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated (EGFR+, n = 108) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase-rearranged (ALK+, n = 33) TKI-naive NSCLC patients diagnosed with BM in the Thoraxklinik Heidelberg between 2009 and 2019. Eighty-seven patients (62%) received early LT, while 54 (38%) received delayed (n = 34; 24%) or no LT (n = 20; 14%). LT comprised stereotactic (SRT; n = 40; 34%) or whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT; n = 77; 66%), while neurosurgical resection was carried out in 19 cases. RESULTS Median overall survival (OS) was 49.1 months for ALK+ and 19.5 months for EGFR+ patients (P = 0.001), with similar median intracranial progression-free survival (icPFS) (15.7 versus 14.0 months, respectively; P = 0.80). Despite the larger and more symptomatic BM (P < 0.001) of patients undergoing early LT, these experienced longer icPFS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.52; P = 0.024], but not OS (HR 1.63; P = 0.12), regardless of the radiotherapy technique (SRT versus WBRT) and number of lesions. High-risk oncogene variants, i.e. non-del19 EGFR mutations and 'short' EML4-ALK fusions (mainly variant 3, E6:A20), were associated with earlier intracranial progression (HR 2.97; P = 0.001). The longer icPFS with early LT was also evident in separate analyses of the EGFR+ and ALK+ subsets. CONCLUSIONS Despite preferential use for cases with poor prognostic factors, early LT prolongs the icPFS, but not OS, in TKI-treated EGFR+/ALK+ NSCLC. Considering the lack of survival benefit, and the neurocognitive effects of WBRT, patients presenting with polytopic BM may benefit from delaying radiotherapy, or from radiosurgery of multiple or selected lesions. For SRT candidates, the improved tumor control with earlier radiotherapy should be weighed against the potential toxicity and the enhanced intracranial activity of newer TKI. High-risk EGFR/ALK variants are associated with earlier intracranial failure and identify patients who could benefit from more aggressive management.

Abstract
Background:Progressive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is responsible for joint damage causing disabilities with no agreement on which disease measures best predict radiographic progressionObjectives:We aimed to determine which disease activity measures including disease activity score (DAS), modified (M) DAS28 (CRP), clinical disease activity index (CDAI), and health assessment questionnaire disability index (HAQ-DI) best predict rapid radiographic progression (RRP) in early RA patients at baseline (BL) and 3 months.Methods:PREMIER data, a 2-year, multicenter, double-blind active comparator–controlled study with methotrexate (MTX) naïve RA patients and active disease <3 years, were used. Only patients in the MTX arm were analyzed. RRP was defined as change in modified total Sharp (mTSS) > 3.5 at month 12. Logistic regression analysis assessed impact of measures at BL and 3 months on RRP at 12 months. Best cut-off points of M-DAS28(CRP) was also estimated using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve.Results:149 patients were included: female (n=113; 75.8%), positive RF (n=127; 85.2%), mean (SD) age 52.9 (13.3) years, disease duration 0.8 (0.9) year, DAS28(CRP) 6.3 (0.9). After adjusting for potential confounders, only M-DAS28(CRP) at BL (adjOR=3.29; 95% CI: 1.70-6.36) and 3 months (adjOR=2.56; 95% CI: 1.43-4.56) strongly predicted RRP at 12 months. M-DAS28(CRP) 4.5 and 2.6 at BL and 3 months maximized sensitivity and specificity for prediction of RRP.Conclusion:M-DAS28(CRP) was a stronger predictor at BL and 3 months for RRP compared with other disease activity measures. Removing tender joint count and patient global assessment from DAS28(CRP) improves prediction of RRP.References:[1] Breedveld FC, Weisman MH, Kavanaugh AF, Cohen SB, Pavelka K, van Vollenhoven R, et al.

Abstract
Disruption of intestinal microbial communities appears to underlie many human illnesses, but the mechanisms that promote this dysbiosis and its adverse consequences are poorly understood. In patients who received allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), we describe a high incidence of enterococcal expansion, which was associated with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and mortality. We found that Enterococcus also expands in the mouse gastrointestinal tract after allo-HCT and exacerbates disease severity in gnotobiotic models. Enterococcus growth is dependent on the disaccharide lactose, and dietary lactose depletion attenuates Enterococcus outgrowth and reduces the severity of GVHD in mice. Allo-HCT patients carrying lactose-nonabsorber genotypes showed compromised clearance of postantibiotic Enterococcus domination. We report lactose as a common nutrient that drives expansion of a commensal bacterium that exacerbates an intestinal and systemic inflammatory disease.

Abstract
The aim of this randomized phase-II study was to evaluate the effect of substituting cytarabine by azacitidine in intensive induction therapy of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Patients were randomized to four induction schedules for two cycles: STANDARD (idarubicin, cytarabine, etoposide); and azacitidine given prior (PRIOR), concurrently (CONCURRENT), or after (AFTER) therapy with idarubicin and etoposide. Consolidation therapy consisted of allogeneic hematopoietic-cell transplantation or three courses of high-dose cytarabine followed by 2-year maintenance therapy with azacitidine in the azacitidine-arms. AML with CBFB-MYH11, RUNX1-RUNX1T1, mutated NPM1, and FLT3-ITD were excluded and accrued to genotype-specific trials. The primary end point was response to induction therapy. The statistical design was based on an optimal two-stage design applied for each arm separately. During the first stage, 104 patients (median age 62.6, range 18-82 years) were randomized; the study arms PRIOR and CONCURRENT were terminated early due to inefficacy. After randomization of 268 patients, all azacitidine-containing arms showed inferior response rates compared to STANDARD. Event-free and overall survival were significantly inferior in the azacitidine-containing arms compared to the standard arm (p < 0.001 and p = 0.03, respectively). The data from this trial do not support the substitution of cytarabine by azacitidine in intensive induction therapy.

Abstract
Refractory skin ulcers due to severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) remain to be associated with significant morbidity and mortality.We performed an allogeneic donor skin transplantation in seven adult patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for cGVHD-associated refractory skin ulcers. While four patients received a split skin graft (SSG), in one patient, a full thickness skin graft for two small refractory ulcers of the ankle was performed, and one patient received in vitro expanded donor keratinocyte grafts derived from hair roots of the original unrelated donor. In one additional patient, a large deep fascial defect of the lower leg was covered with an autologous greater omentum free graft before coverage with an allogeneic SSG. An additional patient was treated with an autologous scrotal skin graft for a refractory ulcer associated with deep sclerosis of cGVHD after unrelated donor transplantation.All skin grafts engrafted and resulted in permanent coverage of the grafted ulcers without any signs of immunological mediated damage. In the patient receiving in vitro expanded keratinocyte grafts, two localized ulcers were permanently covered by donor skin while this approach failed to cover extensive circular ulcers of the lower legs.Allogeneic donor skin grafts are a valuable treatment option in refractory ulcers due to cGVHD but are restricted mainly to related donors while keratinocyte grafts from unrelated donors remain experimental. In male patients lacking a related donor, autologous scrotal skin graft may be an alternative option.

Abstract
Shipping contributes primary and secondary emission products to the atmospheric aerosol burden that have implications for climate, clouds, and air quality from regional to global scales. In this study we exam the potential impact of ship emissions with regards to ice nucleating particles. Particles that nucleate ice are known to directly affect precipitation and cloud microphysical properties. We have collected and analyzed particles for their ice nucleating capacity from a shipping channel outside a large Scandinavia port. We observe that ship plumes amplify the background levels of ice nucleating particles and discuss the larger scale implications. The measured ice nucleating particles suggest that the observed amplification is most likely important in regions with low levels of background particles. The Arctic, which as the sea ice pack declines is opening to transit and natural resource exploration and exploitation at an ever increasing rate, is highlighted as such a region.

Abstract
We describe genetic and clinical characteristics of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients according to age from an academic population-based registry. Adult patients with newly diagnosed AML at 63 centers in Germany and Austria were followed within the AMLSG BiO registry (NCT01252485). Between January 1, 2012, and December 31, 2014, data of 3525 patients with AML (45% women) were collected. The median age was 65 years (range 18-94). The comparison of age-specific AML incidence rates with epidemiological cancer registries revealed excellent coverage in patients < 70 years old and good coverage up to the age of 80. The distribution according to the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) risk categorization from 2010 was 20% favorable, 31% intermediate-1, 28% intermediate-2, and 21% adverse. With increasing age, the relative but not the absolute prevalence of patients with ELN favorable and intermediate-1 risk (p < 0.001), with activating FLT3 mutations (p < 0.001), with ECOG performance status < 2 (p < 0.001), and with HCT-CI comorbidity index < 3 (p < 0.001) decreased. Regarding treatment, obesity and favorable risk were associated with an intensive treatment, whereas adverse risk, higher age, and comorbidity index > 0 were associated with non-intensive treatment or best supportive care. The AMLSG BiO registry provides reliable population-based distributions of genetic, clinical, and treatment characteristics according to age.
