Abstract
AIMS Synovial sarcoma is a rare but aggressive variant of soft-tissue sarcoma. Literature is sparse and reported mostly from the West. We analysed the clinical profiles and prognostic factors of extremity synovial sarcoma patients in order to study their clinical journey. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective analysis. All patients with extremity synovial sarcoma treated between 1992 and 2020 were included. Patients with metastases at presentation were excluded. A descriptive analysis of demographic and clinicopathological features of patients undergoing limb salvage surgery (LSS) or amputation was carried out. Overall survival and disease-free survival were calculated for the entire cohort as well as for the LSS and amputation groups. Factors prognostic for survival were identified. RESULTS In total, 157 patients had localised extremity synovial sarcoma. Predominantly, young adults (median 31 years) and males (61%) were affected. Over 70% of patients presented after recurrence or unplanned surgeries. Sixty-seven per cent of tumours were >5 cm, 69% were deep and 23% involved bone. The limb salvage rate was 64%. In the LSS group, adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy were given to 72% and 68% of patients, respectively. In the amputation group, 72% of patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. In a median follow-up of 59 months, 39.4% of patients had recurrences, the majority (61.2%) were systemic. Five-year overall survival and disease-free survival were 53.4% and 49.8%, respectively. Overall survival was 63.9% and 29.7% in the LSS and amputation groups, respectively. On multivariate analysis, tumour size, depth, omission of radiotherapy and bone invasion were found to be the adverse prognostic factors. CONCLUSION This is one of the largest studies on extremity synovial sarcoma. Mostly males and young adults were affected. The limb salvage rate was 64%, despite most being referred after unplanned surgery. Almost 70% of patients received radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Overall survival was inferior in the amputation group. Tumour size >5 cm, depth and bone invasion were negative, whereas adjuvant radiotherapy was a positive prognostic factor for survival. Chemotherapy had no impact on survival.

Abstract
AIMS The approach to potentially resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains controversial. There is a benefit of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), but the ideal regimen is unknown. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of dose-dense NACT in potentially resectable NSCLC in this phase II trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS Paclitaxel at 80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8 and 15 with AUC-6 carboplatin on day 1, 3 weekly for four cycles was evaluated as NACT. Patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-2, stage IIB and IIIA (with only non-bulky N2 nodes) were included. The primary end point was the objective response rate. Secondary end points included toxicity, progression-free survival, recurrence-free survival, complete resection rate and overall survival. The relative dose intensity (RDI) was calculated to define tolerability (CTRI/2016/05/006916). RESULTS In total, 37 patients were enrolled (median age 55 years). Most (78.8%) were smokers. Most patients had adenocarcinoma (57.6%) and stage IIIA disease (81.0%) according to the seventh American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system. Seventy-eight per cent of patients completed four cycles. The objective response rate was 75.6% with a complete response in 10.8%. The mean RDI of paclitaxel was 88.61%, with 68.0% of patients able to maintain an RDI ≥85.0%. In total, 187 toxicity events were recorded (120 grade 1, 64 grade 2 and three grade 3 events). Common toxicities were peripheral neuropathy (20.3%), myalgia (19.8%), nausea (15.7%) and neutropenia (10.2%). There were no treatment-related deaths. Seventeen patients underwent surgery (lobectomy 82.4%). After a median follow-up of 47 months (95% confidence interval 27-50.7 months), the median progression-free survival was 9.6 months (7.4-17.4) and overall survival was 29.2 months (16.0-37.2). CONCLUSION Dose-dense paclitaxel-carboplatin is feasible, safe and efficacious and should be evaluated further in potentially resectable NSCLC.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) has neurotrophic effects in vitro and in vivo. It has been demonstrated to decrease photoreceptor cell death in rats exposed to constant light and in rats with an inherited defect in retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) phagocytosis, but the effects of intravitreous injections of FGF2 in mice are equivocal. In this study, we used transgenic mice with increased expression of FGF2 in photoreceptors (rhodopsin promoter/FGF2 transgenics) to investigate the effects of sustained increased expression of FGF2 in mice with various types of photoreceptor degeneration, including rd mice that are homozygous for mutated phosphodiesterase beta subunit, Q344ter mice that undergo photoreceptor degeneration because of expression of mutated rhodopsin, and mice exposed to 75% oxygen for 1 or 2 weeks. At P21, the outer nuclear layer was markedly reduced in rd mice or Q344ter mice regardless of whether they inherited the rhodopsin promoter/FGF2 transgene. However, after 2 weeks of exposure to 75% oxygen, outer nuclear layer thickness was significantly reduced in littermate control mice compared to FGF2 transgenic mice (P = 0.0001). These data indicate that increased expression of FGF2 in photoreceptors protects them from hyperoxia-induced damage, but does not decrease cell death related to expression of mutated proteins involved in the phototransduction pathway. This suggests that FGF2 protects photoreceptors from oxidative damage, which may play a role in complex genetic diseases such as age-related macular degeneration.
