Abstract
BACKGROUND Electronic patient-reported outcomes monitoring (ePROM) is a useful communication tool for patients and healthcare providers in cancer chemotherapy. In this study, we examined the feasibility of our newly developed ePROM system, which we refer to as "Hibilog". METHODS An ePROM app was developed by extracting 18 items from the Patient-Reported Outcome-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE). Symptom monitoring was conducted every two weeks for patients with metastatic breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. The primary outcome was the response rate to the ePROM system. The secondary outcomes were response time, item missing rate, and distribution of responses for each symptom. RESULTS A total of 71 cases (mean age 52.6 years) were analyzed. Performance status was 0 in 76% of the cases and 1 or higher in 24%. First-line treatment was being administered in 30% of cases, second-line treatment in 17%, and third-line or higher treatment in 53%. The response rate to the ePROM system from registration to week 40 remained high at around 80%, indicating good compliance. The average response time was 5.5 min and the missing rate for each item was below 0.4%. Among 1,093 responses, the top 3 symptoms causing interference with daily life were Fatigue (63%), Numbness and tingling (48%), and General pain (46%). CONCLUSION Our developed ePROM system was able to capture symptoms accurately in patients with metastatic breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy while maintaining a high response compliance.

Abstract
While local treatment of metastases is considered to be unrelated to prognosis, previous studies have suggested that local treatment of isolated lung metastases may have positive prognostic impact. We designed this prospective cohort study to investigate the clinical situation and its outcomes. We enrolled patients with fewer than 3 lung nodules suspected of being oligometastases after curative breast cancer surgery. Treatments, including local and systemic therapy, were selected by the physician and patient in consultation. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS); secondary outcomes were the efficacy and the safety of the surgery for lung oligometastases. Between May 2015 and May 2019, 14 patients were enrolled. Resection of lung nodules (metastasectomy) was performed in 11 (78.6%) of 14 patients, and one of these cases was diagnosed as primary lung cancer. Metastasectomies were all performed employing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) without perioperative complications. Systemic therapies were administered to all patients except one. The respective 3-year and 5-year OS rates of patients with lung oligometastases were 91.6% and 81.5%, respectively. Progression occurred in 6 patients: 3 of the 10 with metastasectomy and all 3 without this surgical procedure. Lung metastasectomy was worthwhile as a diagnostic evaluation and may provide long-term benefit in some patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unclear what interventions can sustain long-term higher physical activity (PA) to improve breast cancer outcomes. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the long-term effects of interventions on PA after breast cancer treatment. METHODS This was a prospective randomized controlled trial for patients with stage 0 to III breast cancer evaluating the efficacy of exercise and educational programs on long-term PA compared with usual care. The primary endpoint was proportion of patients with recreational PA (RPA) ≥5 metabolic equivalents (METs)/week at 1 year after registration. RESULTS From March 16, 2016, to March 15, 2020, breast cancer patients were registered in the control (n = 120), education (n = 121), or exercise (n = 115) group. There were no significant differences in proportion of RPA ≥5 METs/week at 1 year between the exercise and control groups (54% and 53%, P = .492) and between the education and control groups (62% and 53%, P = .126). Significant difference in reductions from baseline at 1 year were noted on body weight (P = .0083), BMI (P = .0034), and body fat percentage (P = .0027) between education and control groups. Similarly, the exercise group showed significant difference in reduction in body fat percentage (P = .0038) compared to control group. CONCLUSION Although there were no significant effects on RPA 1 year after exercise and educational programs for breast cancer survivors, both interventions reduced body composition. Future studies on PA should investigate appropriate interventions to improve overall survival.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are reportedly efficacious against triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and are now recommended as first-line therapy. Systemic immunity markers, the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), have been identified as predict ICI efficacy in patients with various cancers. We retrospectively enrolled 36 TNBC patients who received atezolizumab treatment between September 2019 and May 2021 at eight Japanese medical institutions. We evaluated systemic immunity markers, including dynamic changes in these markers, as predictors of survival benefit derived from atezolizumab treatment. Median time-to-treatment failure (TTF) and overall survival (OS) were 116 days and "not reached", respectively. Patients with low NLR at baseline and decreased NLR at the start of the second cycle (SO2nd) had significantly longer OS than those with high NLR at baseline and increased NLR (SO2nd) (log-rank P < 0.001 and log-rank P = 0.049, respectively). Multivariate analyses identified high ALC at baseline and decreased NLR (SO2nd) as independent predictive markers for longer TTF (P = 0.043 and P = 0.002, respectively), and low NLR at baseline and decreased NLR (SO2nd) as independent predictive markers for longer OS (P < 0.001 and P = 0.013, respectively). The safety profile was consistent with those of previous trials. This retrospective multicenter observational study showed the clinical efficacy and safety of atezolizumab treatment. Furthermore, systemic immunity markers, including their dynamic changes, were found to be associated with clinical outcomes of atezolizumab treatment in patients with advanced or metastatic TNBC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Perioperative inflammatory cytokines may be related to cancer proliferation, although few studies have investigated this issue in patients undergoing breast reconstruction surgery. METHODS We conducted a prospective study of patients scheduled for mastectomy only, mastectomy plus deep inferior epigastric perforator flap reconstruction (DIEP), or mastectomy plus tissue expander reconstruction (TE), with or without axial dissection (Ax), for primary breast cancer. Blood samples were collected for analysis of serum IL-6 and VEGF preoperatively, then within 24 h postoperatively (POD 1), and 4-6 days postoperatively (POD 4-6). We investigated the difference in serum cytokine levels over time for each surgical procedure and the difference in serum cytokine levels among the procedures at the three measurement time points. RESULTS There were 120 patients included in the final analysis. Serum IL-6 was significantly higher than the preoperative level on POD 1 in patients who underwent mastectomy only, DIEP, or TE and Ax (+), with higher values persisting on POD 4-6 except in those who underwent DIEP. IL-6 was significantly higher after DIEP than after mastectomy only on POD 1, but no differences were observed at POD 4-6. VEGF did not differ significantly among the surgical procedures at any time. CONCLUSIONS The increase in IL-6 was short term and immediate breast reconstruction is considered a safe procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Emojis are commonly used for daily communication and may be useful in assessing patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a Symptom Illustration Scale (SIS) as a new PRO measurement. METHODS Eighteen original SIS items were developed from the PRO-CTCAE. In cohort one, the SIS validity and reliability were examined in patients with breast cancer, using a semi-structured five-question survey to investigate content validity. PROs with PRO-CTCAE and SIS were examined twice to determine criteria validity and test-retest reliability. In cohort two, the responsiveness of the scales were examined in patients treated with anthracycline, docetaxel, paclitaxel, and endocrine therapy. PROs with PRO-CTCAE and SIS were investigated two or three times, depending on the therapy. RESULTS Patients were enrolled from August 2019 to October 2020. In cohort one (n = 70), most patients had no difficulties with the SIS, but 16 patients indicated that it was difficult to understand severities in the SIS. For criterion validity, Spearman rank correlation coefficients (rs) between PRO-CTCAE and SIS items were ≥ 0.41, except for "Decreased appetite." For test-retest reliability, κ coefficients of the SIS were ≥ 0.41 for 16/18 items (88.9%). Response time was significantly shorter for the SIS than for PRO-CTCAE (p < 0.001). In cohort two (n = 106), score changes between PRO-CTCAE and SIS for relevant symptoms all had correlations with rs ≥ 0.41. CONCLUSION An original SIS from the PRO-CTCAE for patients with breast cancer were verified the validity, reliability, and responsiveness. Further studies to improve and validate the SIS are needed.

Abstract
Although immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy has become increasingly common, its oncological safety has been debated. We enrolled patients with breast cancer who underwent surgery at Okayama University Hospital between 2007 and 2013. The primary outcome was relapse-free survival (RFS). Secondary outcomes were overall survival and the duration from the surgery to the initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. We divided into immediate breast reconstruction, mastectomy alone, and breast conservative surgery groups. Outcomes were compared using Cox's regression analysis. A total of 614 patients were included (reconstruction: 125, mastectomy: 128, breast conservative surgery: 361). The median follow-up duration was 79.0±31.9 months. The immediate-reconstruction patients were younger, had more lymph node metastases, and more often received postoperative chemotherapy. The RFS was better after the breast conservative surgery compared to after reconstruction (hazard ratio 0.33, 95% confidence interval: 0.144-0.763). The proportion of local recurrence was highest in the reconstruction group. No patients in the reconstruction group underwent postoperative radiation therapy. However, reconstruction did not affect overall survival or the time to the initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. Surgeons should explain the risks of breast reconstruction to their patients preoperatively. Careful long-term follow-up is required after such procedures.

The importance of a well-fitted, comfortable brassiere to overall quality of life after breast reconstruction has not been evaluated. Our aim was to determine the impact of a semi-customized brassiere on patients' health-related quality of life after breast reconstruction. The subjects were prospective patients with mastectomy who were to undergo immediate or delayed breast reconstruction at our hospital. After surgery, a professional bra fitter sized each patient for a semi-customized brassiere and provided follow-up consultations. A self-reported questionnaire on breast aesthetics, postoperative pain, and satisfaction was used to assess the primary outcomes. Data were prospectively collected at baseline (before surgery) and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery and analyzed. Forty-six patients (50 breasts) were included in the analysis. Consistent wearing of the brassiere reduced pain (p<0.05), with good overall satisfaction (p<0.001). Aesthetic scores on breast shape and size were higher with than without the custom brassiere at 3 months (p=0.02) and 6 months (p=0.03) after surgery. Wearing the brassiere reduced anxiety at all time points of measurement. A well-fitting brassiere ensured safety and provided a high degree of satisfaction without anxiety for patients after breast reconstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies of immune genomic signatures (IGSs) in breast cancer have attempted to predict the response to chemotherapy or prognosis and were performed using different patient cohorts. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive functions of various IGSs using the same patient cohort that included data for response to chemotherapy as well as the prognosis after surgery. METHODS We applied five previously described IGS models in a public dataset of 508 breast cancer patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The prognostic and predictive values of each model were evaluated, and their correlations were compared. RESULTS We observed a high proportion of expression concordance among the IGS models (r: 0.56-1). Higher scores of IGSs were detected in aggressive breast cancer subtypes (basal and HER2-enriched) (P < 0.001). Four of the five IGSs could predict chemotherapy responses and two could predict 5-year relapse-free survival in cases with hormone receptor-positive (HR +) tumors. However, the models showed no significant differences in their predictive abilities for hormone receptor-negative (HR-) tumors. CONCLUSIONS IGSs are, to some extent, useful for predicting prognosis and chemotherapy response; moreover, they show substantial agreement for specific breast cancer subtypes. However, it is necessary to identify more compelling biomarkers for both prognosis and response to chemotherapy in HR- and HER2 + cases.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an important clinical challenge that threatens patients' quality of life. This sub-study of the ABROAD trial investigated the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on CIPN, using genotype data from a randomized study to determine the optimal dose of a 3-week-cycle regimen of nab-paclitaxel (q3w nab-PTX) in patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Patients with HER2-negative MBC were randomly assigned to three doses of q3w nab-PTX (SD: 260 mg/m2 vs. MD: 220 mg/m2 vs. LD: 180 mg/m2). Five SNPs (EPHA4-rs17348202, EPHA5-rs7349683, EPHA6-rs301927, LIMK2-rs5749248, and XKR4-rs4737264) were analyzed based on the results of a previous genome-wide association study. Per-allele SNP associations were assessed by a Cox regression to model the cumulative dose of nab-PTX up to the onset of severe or worsening sensory neuropathy. A total of 141 patients were enrolled in the parent study; 91(65%) were included in this sub-study. Worsening of CIPN was significantly greater in the cases with XKR4 AC compared to those with a homozygote AA (HR 1.86, 95%CI: 1.00001-3.46, p=0.049). There was no significant correlation of CIPN with any other SNP. A multivariate analysis showed that the cumulative dose of nab-PTX was most strongly correlated with CIPN (p<0.01).

Abstract
According to a recent report, a low Ki67 level after short-term preoperative hormone therapy (post-Ki67) might suggest a more favorable prognosis compared with a high post-Ki67 level in patients with hormone receptorpositive/human epidermal growth factor 2-negative (HR+/HER2-) breast cancer with high levels of Ki67. This study aimed to evaluate the pre-treatment genetic differences between these two patient groups. Forty-five luminal B-like patients were stratified into two groups, namely, a group with high (H→H) and one with low (H→L) Ki67 levels after short-term preoperative aromatase inhibitor (AI) treatment. We compared pre-treatment gene expression profiles between the two groups. In gene level analysis, there was no significant difference between the two groups by the class comparison test. In pathway analysis, five metabolism-related gene sets were significantly upregulated in the H→L group (p≤0.05). In the search for novel targets, five genes (PARP, BRCA2, FLT4, CDK6, and PDCD1LG2) showed significantly higher expression in the H→H group (p≤0.05). Several metabolism-related pathways were associated with sensitivity to AI. In the future, it will be necessary to seek out new therapeutic strategies for the poor prognostic group with high post-Ki67.

Abstract
Pegfilgrastim, a pegylated form of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, has reduced the risk of developing febrile neutropenia, which is associated with an increase in severe infection and prolonged hospitalization. However, pegfilgrastim administration requires that patients visit hospital following cancer chemotherapy, thus imposing a burden on patients and those around them. An on-body injector (OBI), which automatically administers pegfilgrastim about 27 hours after chemotherapy, was used in this study. The OBI, which consists of a main pump unit and infusion set, is a drug delivery device designed to be attached to the patient's body, with a timer-controlled dosing function. This study was conducted in breast cancer patients to evaluate the safety of pegfilgrastim administered subcutaneously via the OBI. The study period consisted of screening and treatment observation periods involving four cycles of neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide. One 3.6 mg pegfilgrastim dose was administered subcutaneously via OBI, during each cycle of chemotherapy. The study enrolled 35 patients and no serious adverse events or febrile neutropenia occurred. Administration of pegfilgrastim was successfully completed at all times when the OBI was attached to the patient and no safety concerns associated with OBI function arose. For outpatients requiring pegfilgrastim following cancer chemotherapy, the use of an OBI was considered to be a safe option to reduce the need for outpatient visits that restrict their activities of daily living.

Abstract
Trastuzumab-emtansine (T-DM1) is a therapeutic agent molecularly targeting human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC), and it is especially effective for MBC with resistance to trastuzumab. Although several reports have described T-DM1 resistance, few have examined the mechanism underlying T-DM1 resistance after the development of acquired resistance to trastuzumab. We previously reported that YES1, a member of the Src family, plays an important role in acquired resistance to trastuzumab in HER2-amplified breast cancer cells. We newly established a trastuzumab/T-DM1-dual-resistant cell line and analyzed the resistance mechanisms in this cell line. At first, the T-DM1 effectively inhibited the YES1-amplified trastuzumab-resistant cell line, but resistance to T-DM1 gradually developed. YES1 amplification was further enhanced after acquired resistance to T-DM1 became apparent, and the knockdown of the YES1 or the administration of the Src inhibitor dasatinib restored sensitivity to T-DM1. Our results indicate that YES1 is also strongly associated with T-DM1 resistance after the development of acquired resistance to trastuzumab, and the continuous inhibition of YES1 is important for overcoming resistance to T-DM1.

Abstract
Differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in juvenile patients is often an extensive and aggressive disease with a high frequency of recurrence. However, the prognosis is excellent, with a low mortality rate even when advanced disease is present, although prognostic factors and treatment strategy remain uncertain. Between April 2004 and March 2017, 33 juvenile patients (< 30 years old) were diagnosed with DTC and treated at our institution. We retrospectively investigated prognosis and factors including sex, reason for discovery, treatment, pathological factors and treatment progress to clarify the risk factors. All patients underwent curative surgical treatment. Pathologically, lymph node metastasis was identified in 25 patients (75%). Thirteen patients (39%) had bilateral cervical metastasis. In addition, 9 (27%) had more than 10 metastatic lymph nodes. The 2 patients with more than 20 metastatic lymph nodes were treated with radioactive iodine (RAI). Five patients (15%) had local recurrences and received surgery. There have been no further recurrences or deaths. However, no factors were determined to significantly predict the recurrence of juvenile DTC. Local recurrent disease was treated with surgery and/or RAI until remission, and survival was excellent in juvenile DTC.

Abstract
Objective This study examined the pharmacokinetics, safety and anti-tumor activity of docetaxel at a dose of 100 mg/m2 in Japanese patients with advanced or recurrent breast cancer. Methods Japanese patients with advanced or recurrent breast cancer received docetaxel at a dose of 100 mg/m2 intravenously every three weeks. The pharmacokinetics were assessed during the first cycle. The patients were allowed to receive supportive care drugs based on the indications and dosages in Japan. Results Six eligible patients aged 39-65 years old and 27 treatment cycles were analyzed. All patients experienced one or more adverse events (AEs). The common AEs were neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, alopecia, rash, diarrhea, neuropathy (sensory), fatigue, nausea, fever, hypoalbuminemia, alanine transaminase (ALT) increased, constipation, and taste alteration. Grade 3 or 4 AEs included neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, lymphopenia, decreased appetite, γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GTP) increased, aspartate transaminase (AST) increased, ALT increased, hypertension and cellulitis which were all reversible. There were no cases of febrile neutropenia, serious AEs or deaths. The median number of cycles was six. Dose reductions were not observed and most cycles were administered at their intended doses. No complete response and three partial responses were observed in four assessable patients with evaluable lesions. The maximum concentration and area under the blood concentration-time curve were 3,417.5 ng/mL and 4.35 μg・hr/mL (mean), respectively. Conclusion Docetaxel at a dose of 100 mg/m2 was tolerable with acceptable safety profiles and effective for Japanese patients with advanced or recurrent breast cancer with appropriate supportive therapies, and pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles which corresponded approximately with the findings of previous clinical studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of breast reconstruction (BR) is to improve patients' health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Therefore, measuring patient-reported outcomes (PROs) would clarify the value and impact of BR on a patient's life and thus would provide evidence-based information to help decision-making. The Satisfaction and Quality of Life After Immediate Breast Reconstruction study aimed to investigate satisfaction and HRQOL in Japanese patients with breast cancer who undergo immediate breast reconstruction (IBR). METHODS AND ANALYSIS This ongoing prospective, observational multicentre study will assess 406 patients who had unilateral breast cancer and underwent mastectomy and IBR, and were recruited from April 2018 to July 2019. All participants were recruited from seven hospitals: Okayama University Hospital, Iwate Medical University Hospital, The Cancer Institute Hospital of Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, Showa University Hospital, University of Tsukuba Hospital, Osaka University Hospital and Yokohama City University Medical Center. The patients will be followed up for 36 months postoperatively. The primary endpoint of this study will be the time-dependent changes in BREAST-Q satisfaction with breast subscale scores for 12 months after reconstructive surgery, which will be collected via an electronic PRO system. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study will be performed in accordance with the Ethical Guidelines for Medical and Health Research Involving Human Subjects published by Japan's Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, the modified Act on the Protection of Personal Information and the Declaration of Helsinki. This study protocol was approved by the institutional ethics committee at the Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine, Dentistry, on 2 February 2018 (1801-039) and all other participating sites. The findings of this trial will be submitted to an international peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER UMIN000032177.

Abstract
PURPOSE Epidemiological studies have suggested that intake of soy isoflavones is associated with a reduced risk of development of breast cancer and an improved prognosis in patients with breast cancer. In addition, basic research has demonstrated the antitumor effects of these compounds on breast cancer cell lines. However, the detailed effects of the intake of equol, which is one of the metabolites of the soy isoflavones, are yet to be clarified on the risk of development and recurrence of breast cancer and its interactions with drugs used for treating breast cancer. This study aimed to determine the antitumor effects of equol and investigate the impact of adding equol to therapeutic agents for breast cancer using breast cancer cell lines. METHODS We examined the antitumor effect of equol on breast cancer cell lines using MTS assay. We also studied the combined effect of equol and the existing hormonal or chemotherapeutic agents using combination index. We evaluated the expressions of the related proteins by Western blot analysis and correlated the findings with the antitumor effect. RESULTS Equol showed bi-phasic protumor and antitumor effects; at a low concentration, it promoted the tumor growth in hormone receptor-positive cell lines, whereas antitumor effects were generally observed when an excessive amount of dose unexpected in the blood and the tissue was administered. When used with tamoxifen, equol might have some antagonistic effect, although it depends on equol concentration and the type of cancer cells. CONCLUSIONS We confirmed that equol has dual action, specifically a tumor growth-promoting effect and an antitumor effect. Although the results suggested that equol might exert an antagonistic effect against tamoxifen depending on the concentration, equol did not exert an antagonistic effect on other therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Metastatic breast cancer (MBC), including de novo stage IV, is regarded as being incurable and the mainstay of clinical management is systemic therapy. Traditionally, locoregional surgery is performed only for local control, such as to prevent ulceration and bleeding. In recent years, however, both retrospective and prospective studies have demonstrated the prognostic efficacy of primary surgery for de novo stage IV patients. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate whether surgical therapy contributes to overall survival (OS) extension. We searched for clinical trials published in electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane databases) and performed a meta-analysis of the data collected. There were five prospective randomized controlled phase III trials (RCTs). The results of three have been reported. According to our meta-analysis of these RCTs, primary surgery for de novo stage IV breast cancer patients significantly improves OS. However, the Tata trial showed that systemic therapy does not achieve a sufficient effect. Another trial, conducted in Turkey, had statistical shortcomings and patient randomization was not adequately performed The ABCSG (Austrian Breast and Colorectal Cancer Study Group) trial had too few subjects. Meta-analysis of 12 retrospective studies showed that patients with stage IV breast cancer receiving surgery as the initial treatment experienced longer OS (HR: 0.65, P<0.00001). Based on our meta-analysis of three reported RCTs, surgery as the primary treatment does not significantly impact the outcomes of de novo stage IV breast cancer patients. However, these trials had limitations. We await the results of the remaining two ongoing RCTs (ECOG 2108 and JCOG 1017). These trials are anticipated to resolve current controversies and provide many eagerly awaited answers.

Abstract
Blood vessel invasion (BVI) is a prognostic indicator in various cancers. Elastic stain, which highlights blood vessel walls, is commonly used to detect BVI. In the breast, however, its diagnostic usefulness is limited because it also highlights some intraductal carcinoma components, which often mimic BVI. In this study, we aimed to improve BVI detection in breast cancer and developed a double staining: Victoria blue for elastin and immunohistochemistry for collagen IV. Collagen IV fibers were retained along the basement membranes of intraductal carcinoma components, whereas they were rearranged or lost in BVI. From these observations, we defined BVI as the presence of tumor cells inside an elastic ring with a rearrangement or loss of collagen IV fibers. Using these criteria, we found BVI in 148 cases (49%) among 304 cases of primary operable invasive breast carcinoma, and the presence of BVI correlated significantly with poor prognosis. By contrast, we detected BVI in 94 cases (31%) or 14 cases (5%) by elastic van Gieson or CD31 immunostaining among the same cases, respectively, with no statistically significant association with prognosis. Thus, elastin and collagen IV double staining facilitates the detection of BVI in breast cancer and is useful to predict prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Patient reported outcomes (PROs) have been increasingly important in breast cancer treatment. The questionnaires to evaluate PROs require high response compliance, simplicity, and friendliness. Recently, the communication with Emojis has become friendliness because of the development of social networking services and electronic devices. Therefore, we developed the Emoji scale, a novel indicator to evaluate PROs. Furthermore, two-step validation pilot studies were planned to examine the reliability of the Emoji scale for breast cancer patients at a single center. Pilot 1(Step 1)
Aims: To evaluate the content validity (the primary endpoint), concurrent validity and test retest reliability of the Emoji scales (secondary endpoints). Eligibility criteria: (1) Patients with stage 0-III breast cancer. (2) Patients who have been over 1 year since the end of the initial treatment such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy or (3) hormone receptor positive patients who have been over 1 year from the start of the endocrine therapy. (4) Patients aged >20 years who understand Japanese.
Methods: The participants will complete the PRO Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (PRO-CTCAE) and Emoji scale questionnaires regarding 18 cancer related symptoms twice. First, both questionnaires will be completed in a consulting room while the staff will track the time required for completion of each questionnaire. Thereafter, the patients will be asked if there are any difficult or confused items. Second, both questionnaires will be completed again at home 7 days later. The number of planned participants is 100. Statistical analyses: Content validity will be evaluated by categorizing the comments from participants, and the nature of problems will be determined. The correlation coefficient between the PRO-CTCAE and Emoji scale scores will evaluate the concurrent validity. For the test-retest reliability, the kappa statistic between each scale at different time will be used. We will compare the time required for completion with using the t-test. Pilot 2(Step2)
Aims: To evaluate the responsiveness (the primary endpoint), the effect size, the concurrent validity and comparison of the average score between participants with high and low Performance Status. (the secondary endpoints). Eligibility criteria: (1) Patients with stage 0-IV breast cancer who are scheduled to start chemotherapy or endocrine therapy. (2) Patients aged >20 years who understand Japanese.
Methods: The participants will complete both the PRO-CTCAE and Emoji scales before they start a new breast cancer treatment (T1). Those will comprise chemotherapy (Cohort A: anthracycline based regimens, Cohort B: docetaxel based regimens, Cohort C: paclitaxel based regimens, Cohort E: eribulin based regimens, and Cohort F: capecitabine/S1 based regimens) or endocrine therapy (Cohort D: tamoxifen/aromatase inhibitor). After several weeks, the participants will complete the same questionnaires again (T2). This time interval will depend on the therapy, and some participants will be complete once again the questionnaires (T3) a few weeks after T2. The number of planned participants is 30 in each cohort. Statistical analyses: Responsiveness will be evaluated by the correlation coefficient between the change from the baseline to second or third score of each scale. The effect size of the Emoji scale will be determined by the difference between the average score of the second or third and that of the baseline divided by the standard deviation of the baseline score. The correlation coefficient for each scale at each time will evaluate the concurrent validity at each time. A comparison of the average scores between PS will be performed using the t-test.

Abstract
Abstract
Background In hormone receptor (HR)-positive / human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancers, high Ki-67 predicts poor prognosis. Recently, it has been reported that among breast cancers with high Ki-67, low Ki-67 after short-term preoperative hormone therapy (post Ki-67) might predict favorable prognosis compared to high post Ki-67 (SABCS 2017). However, the differences in gene expression profiling of breast cancers between high and low post Ki-67 among high Ki-67 before treatment are unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify genetic differences in two groups and to explore novel therapeutic targets for the poor prognostic group after the treatment.
Methods
Seventy-seven patients with primary HR-positive / HER2-negative breast cancer who received an aromatase inhibitor for 2 weeks [NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus repository GSE80077:19 cases, GSE20181:58 cases] were enrolled in this study. Forty-five patients with high pre Ki-67 among them were stratified into two groups, high (H→H) and low (H→L) post Ki-67 after short-term preoperative hormone therapy. We compared gene expression profiling in two groups about the followings.
1) 3 genes (ESR1, PGR and ERBB2) related to classical clinical treatment strategy of breast cancer, immune- and inflammatory-related genes
2) 178 pathways (gene set analysis)
3) 41 genes that are targeted by FDA-approved drugs or have been investigated with clinical trials as molecular target agents for various malignant tumors including breast cancer
Results
1) TNF that is inflammatory-related gene were significantly overexpressed in H→L group (P=0.021). However, 3 genes related to clinical treatment of breast cancer and immune-related genes expression had no significant difference between two groups.
2) 5 gene sets (Tryptophan metabolism, Propanoate metabolism, beta-Alanine metabolism, SNARE interactions in vesicular transport and Nucleotide excision repair) were significantly upregulated in H→L group. (P ≤ 0.005)
3) 5 targeted genes (PARP, BRCA2, FLT4, CDK6 and PDCD1LG2) were significantly overexpressed in H→H group (P ≤ 0.05).
Conclusions
There were different gene expression and biological processes in two groups stratified by post-Ki67. In the future, it is necessary to seek new therapeutic strategies for poor prognostic group with high post-Ki67 in considerations of these differences.

Abstract
Background Angiosarcoma of the breast is very rare and can be divided into primary and secondary angiosarcoma. Radiation-induced angiosarcoma (RIAS) is classified as secondary angiosarcoma. Diagnosis of RIAS is difficult due to its rarity, and the interpretation of pathological imaging is complicated. In the National Comprehensive Care Network (NCCN) guidelines, the first choice of treatment is surgery with negative margins. Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) for close soft tissue margins should be considered. Preoperative or adjuvant chemotherapy of nonmetastatic disease is not recommended for angiosarcoma. We report a case of RIAS, which was impossible to diagnose with core needle biopsy (CNB) but was diagnosed by excisional biopsy. The patient was then administered adjuvant chemotherapy using conjugated paclitaxel (PTX). Case presentation A 62-year-old woman noticed a tumor in her right breast. She had a history of right breast cancer and had undergone breast-conserving surgery, RT, and tamoxifen therapy 8 years previously. CNB, which was performed twice, was inconclusive. The tumor was surgically excised and pathological analysis yielded a diagnosis of angiosarcoma. She then underwent a right mastectomy. One month after she underwent right mastectomy, a nodule reappeared on the skin of her right breast, and excisional biopsy revealed recurrence of angiosarcoma. A few weeks later another nodule reappeared near the post-operative scar and excisional biopsy revealed recurrence of angiosarcoma. We assumed that surgical therapy was insufficient because the patient experienced relapse of angiosarcoma after complete mastectomy. After the second recurrence, we treated her with systemic chemotherapy using PTX. There was no evidence of recurrence 8 months after chemotherapy. Conclusion Although angiosarcoma is difficult to diagnose, many patients have a poor prognosis. Therefore, prompt treatment intervention is desired. Moreover, there is little evidence regarding adjuvant therapy of angiosarcoma since it is a rare disease. We consider that adjuvant therapy helped to effectively prevent recurrence in the patient after complete excision.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with residual disease usually have a poor prognosis after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to explore therapeutic targets and potential additional adjuvant treatments for patients with residual disease after standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrieved publicly available complementary DNA microarray data from 399 human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative primary breast cancer samples from patients who underwent standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy. We analyzed the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels of key breast cancer markers and therapeutic target genes according to residual cancer burden (RCB) classification: RCB-0/I, RCB-II, and RCB-III. RESULTS Among hormone receptor-positive samples, there were more luminal A tumors by PAM50 (Prediction Analysis of Microarray 50 [Prosigna], aka Prosigna Breast Cancer Prognostic Gene Signature Assay) in RCB-III than in RCB-0/I and RCB-II (P < .01). The mRNA expressions of ESR1 and PGR were significantly higher, and that of MKI67 was lower in RCB-II and RCB-III than in RCB-0/I. The mRNA expression of cyclin D1 was up-regulated in RCB-III and that of CDKN2A was down-regulated in RCB-III (P = .027 and < .01). Among triple-negative (TN) samples, RCB-III had higher clinical stage and more lymph node-positive samples than RCB-0/1 and RCB-II (P < .01). In both subtypes, VEGF-C expression was significantly higher in RCB-III than in RCB-0/I and RCB-II. CONCLUSION In hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, biological features such as luminal A were associated with RCB; this trend was not observed in TN breast cancer. Further, some targeted therapies should be tested as new strategies after standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy in future clinical trials.

Abstract
e14182 Background: Metformin is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs for type 2 diabetes, and some reports have suggested that metformin may reduce cancer risk. Diabetics treated with metformin have a 23% reduction in the risk of cancer, including breast cancer. In addition, it is reported that the breast cancer patients with metformin treatment for diabetes showed favorable prognosis compared with those without metformin treatment. However, the mechanism underlying the positive effects of metformin on cancer treatment remains unclear. Methods: We conducted a prospective study to evaluate the effect of preoperative metformin on early breast cancer patients. The patients took a daily dose of metformin orally for 7 to 21 days before surgery. We evaluated the effects on immunological factors (TILs, CD4+, CD8+, PD-L1 and ALDH1) by comparing core needle biopsies (CNB) obtained before surgery with surgical specimens. Results: Seventeen breast cancer patients were enrolled in this prospective study and administered metformin before surgery, during the period from January to December 2016. We analyzed 59 patients who received surgery during the same period as a control group. In the control group, there was no significant difference in TILs between CNB and surgical specimens (Rs = 0.63). In the metformin group, TILs were negative in CNB and surgical specimens of 15 (88%) and 8 (48%) cases, low in 2 (12%) and 8 (48%), and intermediate in 0 and 1 (6%), respectively. These TILs increases were confirmed in 5 (29%) patients (p = 0.09), while a decrease was confirmed in 2 (12%). The expressions of CD4+ and CD8+ by TILs were increased in 41% and 18% of surgical specimens, respectively. (p = 0.02, p = 0.09) However, there was no statistically significant difference in these immunological factors and PD-L1 or ALDH1 expression between before and after metformin. Conclusions: In our small cohort, preoperative metformin administration shows positive impact on CD4 positive lymphocytes significantly and has tendency of increasing both TILs and CD8 positive lymphocytes. However, we should keep in mind that our sample size is small. Further study is necessary to uncover the mechanisms of favorable effects of metformin on breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Overall survival (OS) is the established endpoint to evaluate the effects of drug treatment in comparative clinical trials of metastatic breast cancer. But assessing OS requires long follow-up periods and large sample size, which raise costs and create long delays in the drug approval process. Progression-free survival (PFS) or time to progression (TTP) is considered as a surrogate for OS and is often used as an alternative to OS. In some cancers the two endpoints are highly correlated, but in others they are not. Furthermore, the effect of breast cancer (BC) subtypes on the surrogacy of PFS/TTP for OS has not been completely defined.
Method: A systematic literature review of randomized control trials was conducted to identify studies that reported both the hazard ratio (HR) of PFS/TTP and OS for BC subtypes {i.e. estrogen receptor (ER) positive, HER2 positive, and triple negative (TN)}. The correlation between the HR of PFS/TTP and OS was evaluated using weighted Spearman's rank correlation.
Results: A total of 49 trials (34 phase III trials and 15 phase II trials) were selected for analysis. Among these trials, there were 8 comparison trials between one chemotherapy and another chemotherapy regimen, 18 comparison trials between chemotherapy and chemotherapy plus molecularly-targeted therapy, 9 comparison trials between one endocrine therapy and another endocrine therapy, and 5 comparison trials between endocrine therapy and endocrine therapy plus molecularly-targeted therapy. There were 17 trials reporting the HR of PFS/TTP and OS for ER positive, 16 trials for HER2 positive, and 9 trials for TN BC. Weighted Spearman's rank correlation revealed that coefficient between the HR of PFS/TTP and OS was 0.721(p<.0001) for all trials, 0.873(p< .0001) for ER positive, 0.642(p=0.0055) for HER2 positive, and 0.615(p=0.078)for TN BC.
Conclusion: There was a strong correlation between the HR of PFS/TTP and OS for ER positive BC, and a weak correlation between the HR of PFS/TTP and OS for HER2 positive and TN BC. The validity of using PFS/TTP as an OS surrogate marker was shown for metastatic BC, especially for ER positive BC.

Abstract
Abstract
Background : Isoflavones are phytoestrogens that may be effective in preventing osteoporosis, reducing cardiovascular events, and improving menopausal symptoms such as hot flash due to their estrogen-like actions. Isoflavones are currently used as a supplement for improving symptoms of menopause. Epidemiological studies have shown that ingestion of soy products may also reduce the risk of breast cancer, and antitumor effects on hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer cells have been shown in vitro for equol, an isoflavone metabolite. Equol binds to estrogen receptors (ERα, β) and is thought to antagonize ERα-estradiol binding in the presence of estradiol. Since equol shows an antiestrogenic effect, similar to that of the hormonal agent tamoxifen, it is thought that equol acts as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), but the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we evaluated the antitumor effects of equol alone and in combination with existing therapeutic agents in HR-positive breast cancer cells, and examined the mechanism of these effects.
Methods : The antitumor effects of equol alone and in combination with hormone drugs (4-hydroxytamoxifen (Tam), fulvestrant (Ful)) and chemotherapeutic agents (paclitaxel (Ptx), doxorubicin (Dox)) were examined using a MTS assay. Combination indexes (CIs) were determined in HR-positive MCF-7, T-47D, and ZR-75-1 cell lines. The mechanisms of the drug effects were evaluated by Western blot for assessment of changes in chemoresistance factors at the protein level.
Results : In MCF-7, T-47D and ZR-75-1 cells, there was a concentration-dependent antitumor effect of equol and of the other hormonal agents. CIs showed an antagonistic effect of equol with Tam and a synergistic effect with Ful in all cell lines. Equol also had an antagonistic effect with the two chemotherapeutic agents, with the strongest antagonism occurring at a low dose of equol. Western blot showed that ER, PgR, Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 were upregulated via ER at a low concentration of equol, similarly to the effect of 17-β-estradiol (E2), and ER, PgR, Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 were downregulated at a high concentration, similarly to the effect of Tam. In addition, ER, PgR and cyclin D1 were downregulated with the combination of equol and Tam, while the expression of Bcl-2, a chemoresistance factor, increased.
Conclusion : These results suggest that equol has a concentration-dependent antitumor effect in HR-positive breast cancer cell lines and may antagonize the effect of existing therapeutic agents (hormone drugs and chemotherapeutic agents). In particular, it was considered that in combination of equol and Tam, the apoptosis inducing action of each drug was attenuated and antagonistic effect was shown.

Abstract
The value of assessing tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in estrogen receptor (ER) positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer has yet to be determined. In the present study, a total of 184 cases with early distant recurrence detected within 5 years following the primary operation, 134 with late distant recurrence diagnosed following 5 years or longer and 321 controls without recurrence for >10 years following starting the initial treatment for ER-positive/HER2 negative breast cancer, registered in 9 institutions, were analyzed. The distributions of TILs and their clinical relevance were investigated. TIL distributions did not differ significantly among the early, late and no recurrence groups, employing a 30% cut-off point as a dichotomous variable. In those who had received adjuvant chemotherapy as well as endocrine therapy, a trend toward higher TIL proportions was detected when the early recurrence group was compared with the no recurrence group employing the 30% cut-off point (P=0.064). The TIL distributions were significantly associated with nodal metastasis (P=0.004), ER status (P=0.045), progesterone receptor (PgR) status (P=0.002), tumor grade (P=0.021), and the Ki67 labeling index (LI) (P=0.002) in the no recurrence group and with the Ki67 LI in the recurrence groups (P=0.002 in early recurrence group, P=0.023 in late recurrence group). High TIL distributions also predicted shorter survival time following the detection of recurrence (P=0.026). However, these prognostic interactions were not significant in multivariate analysis (P=0.200). The present retrospective study demonstrated no significant interaction between TIL proportions and the timing of recurrence. However, higher TIL proportions were observed in breast cancer patients with aggressive biological phenotypes, which tended to be more responsive to chemotherapy. The clinical relevance of stromal TILs for identifying patients who would likely benefit from additional therapies merits further investigation in a larger patient population.

Abstract
The criteria for biological postmenopause have not been clearly defined, although determining the menopausal status is crucial for selecting agents for adjuvant endocrine therapy for patients with breast cancer. The long-term effects of adjuvant toremifene(TOR)and anastrozole(ANA)on serum follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)and estradiol(E2)levels in Japanese women were examined using data from a prospective randomized study that mainly studied serum lipids and bone metabolism for 2 years. The study medications were administered orally daily at 40 mg and 1 mg for TOR and ANA, respectively. Sixty-nine patients were randomly assigned to the TOR group(n=36)or ANA group(n=33). FSH and E2 levels were measured using chemiluminescent immunoassay. The mean ages of the patients in the TOR and ANA groups were 62.5 and 60.0 years, respectively. None of the patients experienced menstruation during the course of the study. The baseline serum FSH level in the TOR group(69.6mIU/mL)decreased to 59.2%, 54.6%, and 50.0% at 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively, after therapy commencement. The FSH levels ranged from 8.6 to 68.1mIU/mL and were<20mIU/mL in 2 patients(9.5%; 8.6 and 14.4mIU/mL). The serum FSH levels in the ANA group did not change markedly over 24months. The baseline serum E2 level in the ANA group(11.6 pg/mL)decreased to 72.4%, 70.7%, and 61.2%at 6, 12, and 24months, respectively, after therapy commencement. The serum E2 level in the TOR group did not change markedly over 24 months. When switching to other endocrine agents as adjuvant therapy for patients with breast cancer treated with TOR, the serum FSH level decreased to half of the preinitiation level, and one-tenth of the FSH levels was<20mIU/mL, while the postmenopausal serum E2 level was maintained.

Abstract
Adverse effects on fertility are a significant problem for premenopausal breast cancer patients. Since April 2009, we have been referring young patients for fertility counseling provided by a multidisciplinary team. Here we evaluated the efficacy and safety of our current fertility preservation approach. We retrospectively analyzed the cases of 277 patients < 45 years old at diagnosis, which was made between 2009 and 2016. Seventy-two (26%) patients received fertility counseling. Seventeen (6%) of the 277 patients decided to preserve their fertility before starting adjuvant systemic therapy. Six (35%) patients underwent oocyte cryopreservation, and 11 (65%) married patients opted for embryo cryopreservation. There were no pregnancies among the patients undergoing oocyte cryopreservation, whereas 3 (27%) of the patients who opted for embryo cryopreservation became pregnant. Two (12%) patients stopped endocrine therapy after 2 years in an effort to become pregnant, but their breast cancers recurred. Though the problem of fertility loss for breast cancer patients is important and we should assess the infertility risk for all patients, we should also consider the prognosis. In June 2016, we launched a prospective multicenter cohort study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fertility preservation in greater detail.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative dose-dense chemotherapy (DDCT) with granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) prophylaxis is a standard treatment for patients with high-risk breast cancer. The approval of this approach in Japan led to the widespread adoption of DDCT, despite limited efficacy and safety data among Japanese patients. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant DDCT for Japanese patients with breast cancer. METHODS This prospective, multicenter, phase II study evaluated 52 women with operable human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis. Neoadjuvant DDCT (adriamycin plus cyclophosphamide or epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide followed by paclitaxel) was administrated every 2 weeks with G-CSF support. The study endpoints were the rates of pathological complete response (pCR), febrile neutropenia, treatment completion, toxicities, and the relative dose intensity (RDI). RESULTS The pCR rate was 21.9% (9/41) and the triple-negative (TN) subtype was significantly associated with a high pCR rate (triple-negative: 53.3% vs. luminal A: 7.7% and luminal B: 0%; p = 0.003). The treatment completion rate was 80.8% (42/52) and the average RDI was 98.9%. Most adverse events were manageable and tolerable. Six patients (11.5%) developed febrile neutropenia. Grade 3-4 adverse events were slightly more common among older patients (57%) with a low protocol completion rate (≥ 65 years: 42.9% vs. <65 years: 86.7%, p = 0.0062). CONCLUSION The pCR rate for DDCT was similar to that of standard chemotherapy, although it was remarkably effective for the TN subtype. DDCT may be feasible for Japanese patients with breast cancer although caution is needed for older patients.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to test whether immunohistochemical (IHC) Ki67 levels after short-term preoperative hormone therapy (post-Ki67) predict similar numbers of patients with favorable prognoses as genomic markers. Results Thirty paired cases (60 samples) were enrolled in this study. Post-Ki67 levels were significantly lower than pre-treatment Ki67 levels (P < 0.001). Post-Ki67 predicted more low-risk cases (83.3%, 25/30) than pre-genomic surrogate signature(GSS) (66.7%: 20/30), but the difference in predictive power was not significant (P = 0.233). Proliferation (MKI67, STK15, Survivin, CCNB1, and MYBL2) and estrogen (ER, PGR, BCL2, and SCUBE2) related signatures were significantly downregulated after therapy (P < 0.001 and 0.041, respectively). Materials and Methods Core needle biopsy specimens of primary breast cancer were collected at Okayama University Hospital from hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor 2-negative patients that subsequently received two weeks of neoadjuvant hormone therapy. Paired post-treatment specimens from surgical samples were also collected. IHC Ki67 levels and GSS were compared between pre- and post-hormone treatment samples. Changes of gene expression pattern in short-term hormone therapy were also assessed. Conclusions IHC based post-Ki67 levels may have distinct predictive power compared with the naïve IHC Ki67. Future studies with larger cohorts and longer follow-up periods may be needed to validate our results.

Abstract
A prospective randomized phase II trial was conducted to evaluate the time course effects of toremifene (TOR) and letrozole (LET), as adjuvant hormone therapy, on serum lipid profiles and bone metabolism in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, postmenopausal breast cancer patients.Fifty-four postmenopausal breast cancer patients [ER positive, HER2 negative, T1–2, node metastases (n = 0–3), M0] who had undergone curative resection were enrolled. They were randomized to receive either TOR 40 mg/day or LET 2.5 mg/day as adjuvant hormone therapy. Serum lipids and bone markers were measured prior to, and again at 6, 12, and 24 months after initiation of treatment. Changes in serum lipids and bone markers were compared. Serum levels of total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were decreased compared with the baseline values at 6 months in 6.5 and 14.0% of patients, respectively, receiving TOR. Lipid levels did not change in patients administered LET. Significant differences were observed in TC and LDL-C between the two groups at 12 and 24 months. In the TOR group, serum bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BAP) was decreased by 25.0% at 12 months, and serum cross-linked N-telopeptide of type-I collagen (NTx) was decreased by 13.6% at 6 months, and these reductions were maintained for at least 24 months. In contrast, in the LET group, serum BAP did not change and NTx was increased by 16.0% at 6 months and by 18.6% at 24 months, as compared with the baseline.TOR and LET exert different effects on serum lipid profiles and bone metabolism markers. The effects of TOR, as adjuvant hormone therapy, on both lipids and bone metabolism in postmenopausal breast cancer patients are superior to those of LET.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: As the management of breast carcinoma evolves toward less invasive treatments, the next step is the possibility of removing the primary tumor without surgery. The most promising noninvasive ablation technique is radiofrequency ablation (RFA), which can effectively kill tumor cells with a low complication rate. Our preliminary studies of RFA followed by standard surgical resection have indicated that this technique is effective for surgical ablation of small (≤ 2cm) breast tumors without extensive intraductal components (EIC).
Methods: To determine if RFA is oncologically and cosmetically appropriate for the local treatment of primary breast carcinoma, this multi-center prospective study used RFA as the sole local treatment of breast tumors ≤ 1.5cm in size on ultrasound and MRI. Exclusion criteria include receiving of preoperative chemotherapy, or the presence of invasive lobular carcinoma or invasive ductal carcinoma with suspicious EIC. After confirmation that the standard baseline core biopsy for diagnosis and measurement of tumors markers (ER, PgR, HER-2/neu expression and the presence of the Ki-67 proliferative marker) have been obtained, consent will be obtained and the patient scheduled RFA. All patients received adjuvant radiation therapy. The use and choice of systemic therapy will be based on the information from the baseline core biopsy. The first primary endpoints of this study is successful tumor ablation, as evidenced by negative findings on vacuum-assisted or core biopsies and imaging studies after RFA. The second primary endpoints is the incidence of procedure related adverse events. Forty patients with small tumors that are clearly identifiable and measurable by ultrasound and MRI were enrolled. The response to ablation was evaluated with both vacuum-assisted or core biopsies and imaging studies every 3 months during the first year. The long-term outcomes were assessed using quality of life measurement scales and imaging studies every 6 months thereafter through year 5.
Results: Of the 58 patients who participated in this study, 55 completed the protocol. In 48 of the 55 (87%) treated patients, successful tumor ablation, as determined by negative findings on vacuum-assisted or core biopsies and imaging studies, was confirmed. The remaining 7 patients with biopsies positive for residual tumor underwent surgical resection. There were no local or distant recurrences in treated 55 patients with a median follow up of 47 (range 36-73) months.
Conclusions: RFA can be safely used alone in patients with small breast tumors, provided that local tumor control must be regularly assessed by image-guided vacuum-assisted or core biopsies after ablation. RFA has several potential advantages over lumpectomy for the treatment of early stage breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
[Background]
Past studies revealed that a moderate to high level of physical activity after diagnosis of breast cancer reduces both the risk of breast cancer-related death and death from all causes. Furthermore, some randomized studies suggested that exercise programs improve the percentage of patients who complete the chemotherapy and quality of life, and decrease fatigue, and adverse events. The issues to be determined include defining an established uniform exercise program and the efficacy of a long-term exercise program after breast cancer surgery.
[Object] To elucidate the efficacy of a long-term exercise program and to verify the safety and feasibility of a uniform exercise program using an ‘existing social resource’ after primary therapy of breast cancer.
[Design] A multi-center, randomized trial.
[Method] Subjects: The subjects included patients who had completed treatment for primary breast cancer, including surgery and/or adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients with metastatic breast cancer were excluded.
Randomization & intervention: The patients were randomly assigned to three groups.
The first group followed an exercise program at Curves® that involved 30 minutes of exercise, including aerobics, weight training, and stretching 3 times a week for 4 months. The second group was given life-style guidance at least once that patients participate in a lecture program about recommended exercise at this point and the importance of weight control after diagnosis of breast cancer using a brochure. The third group served as controls that the patients receive a brochure used same one in the second group. The variables included age and weight.
Outcome: The primary endpoint is level of physical activity at 1 year after randomization, and the secondary endpoints are the percentage of those completing the exercise program, patient reported outcomes (QOL, cancer or treatment associated symptoms, fatigue, depression, and anxiety), body mass index, bone density, and level of lymphedema.
Period of research: The study will last 2 years beginning March 2016.
Sample size: We plan to enroll 400 patients to detect 20% difference with 90% power.
Additional study: Some biochemical markers in the blood will be evaluated to determine the mechanism of the effect of exercise on the human body.

Abstract
We evaluated the usefulness of preoperative 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) examinations to predict the pathological features in primary breast cancer. In particular, we evaluated the correlation between the maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax) obtained by 18F-FDG PET/CT and the Ki67 expression in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Primary IDC patients operated between March 2009 and July 2013 at Okayama University Hospital were enrolled. We evaluated the correlations between the SUVmax and age, postoperative pT, histological grade, lymph vascular invasion, status of hormone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), Ki67 expression and node status. The Ki67 expression was classified as high (> 14%) versus low (< 14%). We enrolled 138 patients with IDC. Their median SUVmax was 3.85 (range:0-52.57). In a univariate analysis, the SUVmax was significantly related to age, pT, histological grade, lymphovascular invasion, hormone receptor status, HER2 status, node status and Ki67. In the 113 patients with ER-positive IDC, there was a significant correlation between Ki67 and SUVmax (p = 0.0030). The preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT results of IDC patients had significant relationships with pathological status parameters. The determination of the preoperative SUVmax might help classify Luminal A and Luminal B patients among luminal-type breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Docetaxel is a standard treatment for patients with advanced or recurrent breast cancer. The recommended dose is 60 to 100 mg/m2. Previous study have shown that the tumor response rates of patients who received docetaxel monotherapy at doses of 60, 75, and 100 mg/m2 were 22.1% , 23.3% , and 36.0% , respectively, and there was a significant relationship between the dose and response. In Europe and the United States, docetaxel is approved at a dose of 100 mg/m2, and Japanese guidelines also recommend a dose of 100 mg/m2. However, the approved dose in Japan is up to 75 mg/m2. We have launched a phase I trial evaluating 100 mg/m2 docetaxel in patients with advanced or relapsed breast cancer. The major eligibility criteria are as follows: age 20 years, pathologically diagnosed breast cancer, recurrent or advanced breast cancer, a good performance status, and HER2 [human epidermal growth factor receptor 2] negative. The primary endpoint is demonstrated safety of 100 mg/m2 docetaxel. This study will clarify whether 100mg/m2 docetaxel can be administrated safely in Japanese patients with advanced or recurrent breast cancer.

Abstract
A study to evaluate the effect of metformin on the immune system was commenced in July 2014. Metformin is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs for type 2 diabetes, and previous studies have reported that metformin has an anti-tumor effect. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of metformin on the immune system in human cancer patients in vivo. The primary outcome parameter will be the rate change in the population of CD8+ T cells, which produce multiple cytokines.

Abstract
Purpose The goal of chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is to prolong survival and maintain health-related quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate long-term health status of patients with MBC who participated in the phase III randomized SELECT BC trial. Methods In the SELECT BC trial, patients were randomly allocated to the S-1 or taxane (paclitaxel or docetaxel) arm. Health status was assessed by EQ-5D at pre-treatment, 3 and 6 months after randomization, and every 6 months thereafter to the extent possible. Least square mean scores were assessed to compare EQ-5D index values between groups. Time to deterioration analysis was also performed by defining the minimally important difference of EQ-5D as 0.05 or 0.1. Results The number of patients for EQ-5D analysis was 175 and 208 in the taxane and S-1 arms, respectively. Least square mean EQ-5D index values up to 60 months were 0.741 (95 % CI [0.713–0.769]) in the taxane arm and 0.748 [0.722–0.775] in the S-1 arm. The EQ-5D index value during PFS up to 12 months in the S-1 was superior to the corresponding index value in the taxane (0.812 [0.789–0.834] vs. 0.772 [0.751–0.792], P = 0.009). Time to deterioration analysis also revealed that S-1 significantly delayed the deterioration of EQ-5D index value during the period before progression (P = 0.002 and 0.003). Conclusions Our findings suggest that the EQ-5D index value was higher in patients treated with S-1 during first-line chemotherapy. Considering non-inferiority of S-1 in terms of OS, obtained quality-adjusted life years may be greater in the S-1 arm.

Abstract
Background The significance of the expression of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1), a cancer stem cell marker, for predicting the recurrence of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer is still poorly understood. The value of ALDH1 in predicting the time of recurrence remains unknown. Methods In total, 184 patients with early distant recurrence, 134 patients with late distant recurrence, and 321 control patients without recurrence for more than 10 years after starting initial treatment for ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, registered in 9 institutions, were analyzed. We assessed relationships between ALDH1 and other clinicopathological features, and ALDH1 expression was compared among the three groups. The relationship between ALDH1 expression and overall survival after recurrence was also evaluated in each group. Results The rates of ALDH1 expression positivity (more than 1 %) in the early, late, and no recurrence groups were 18.4 %, 13.4 %, and 8.4 %, respectively. ALDH1 expression correlated significantly with lymph node metastases (p = 0.048) and the Ki-67 labeling index (p < 0.001) in the early recurrence group. Multivariate analysis revealed ALDH1 expression to be significantly higher in the early recurrence group than in the no recurrence group (adjusted OR 2.140, 95 % CI 1.144–4.003, p = 0.016). Moreover, there was a significant difference in ALDH1 expression between the early and no recurrence groups receiving adjuvant endocrine therapy and chemotherapy (adjusted OR 4.625, 95 % CI 1.881–12.474, p < 0.001). However, there was no difference in ALDH1 expression between the late and no recurrence groups in univariate analysis (OR 1.507, 95 % CI 0.738–2.998, p = 0.253). In multivariate analysis, ALDH1 was not a factor independently predicting overall survival after the detection of recurrence (adjusted OR 1.451, 95 % CI 0.985–2.085, p = 0.059). Conclusions Among patients with ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer, ALDH1 expression was more common in those with early recurrence, and this expression was found to be associated with a more aggressive breast cancer phenotype than that in the patients without recurrence. Further study is needed to clarify the prognostic significance of the heterogeneity of cancer stem cells and to confirm their role in resistance to chemotherapy.
