Abstract
Background BVAC-C, a B cell- and monocyte-based immunotherapeutic vaccine transfected with recombinant HPV E6/E7, was well tolerated in HPV-positive recurrent cervical carcinoma patients in a phase I study. This phase IIa study investigates the antitumor activity of BVAC-C in patients with HPV 16- or 18-positive cervical cancer who had experienced recurrence after a platinum-based combination chemotherapy. Patients and methods Patients were allocated to 3 arms; Arm 1, BVAC-C injection at 0, 4, 8 weeks; Arm 2, BVAC-C injection at 0, 4, 8, 12 weeks; Arm 3, BVAC-C injection at 0, 4, 8, 12 weeks with topotecan at 2, 6, 10, 14 weeks. Primary endpoints were safety and objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by an independent radiologist according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Secondary endpoints included the disease control rate (DCR), duration of response (DOR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results Of the 30 patients available for analysis, the ORR was 19.2% (Arm 1: 20.0% (3/15), Arm 2: 33.3% (2/6), Arm3: 0%) and the DCR was 53.8% (Arm 1: 57.1%, Arm 2: 28.6%, Arm3: 14.3%). The median DOR was 7.5 months (95% CI 7.1-not reported), the median PFS was 5.8 months (95% CI 4.2-10.3), and the median OS was 17.7 months (95% CI 12.0-not reported). All evaluated patients showed not only inflammatory cytokine responses (IFN-γ or TNF-α) but also potent E6/E7-specific T cell responses upon vaccinations. Immune responses of patients after vaccination were correlated with their clinical responses. Conclusion BVAC-C represents a promising treatment option and a manageable safety profile in the second-line setting for this patient population. Further studies are needed to identify potential biomarkers of response. Clinical trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT02866006.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In the global phase 3 Study 309/KEYNOTE-775 (NCT03517449) at the first interim analysis, lenvatinib+pembrolizumab significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR) versus treatment of physician's choice chemotherapy (TPC) in patients with previously treated advanced/recurrent endometrial cancer (EC). This exploratory analysis evaluated outcomes in patients enrolled in East Asia at the time of prespecified final analysis. METHODS Women ≥18 years with histologically confirmed advanced, recurrent, or metastatic EC with progressive disease after 1 platinum-based chemotherapy (2 if 1 given in neoadjuvant/adjuvant setting) were enrolled. Patients were randomized 1:1 to lenvatinib 20 mg orally once daily plus pembrolizumab 200 mg intravenously every 3 weeks (≤35 cycles) or TPC (doxorubicin or paclitaxel). Primary endpoints were PFS per RECIST v1.1 by blinded independent central review and OS. No alpha was assigned for this subgroup analysis. RESULTS Among 155 East Asian patients (lenvatinib+pembrolizumab, n=77; TPC, n=78), median follow-up time (data cutoff: March 1, 2022) was 34.3 (range, 25.1-43.0) months. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for PFS (lenvatinib+pembrolizumab vs. TPC) were 0.74 (0.49-1.10) and 0.64 (0.44-0.94) in the mismatch repair proficient (pMMR) and all-comer populations, respectively. HRs (95% CI) for OS were 0.68 (0.45-1.02) and 0.61 (0.41-0.90), respectively. ORRs were 36% with lenvatinib+pembrolizumab and 22% with TPC (pMMR) and 39% and 21%, respectively (all-comers). Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 97% and 96% (grade 3-5, 74% and 72%), respectively. CONCLUSION Lenvatinib+pembrolizumab provided clinically meaningful benefit with manageable safety compared with TPC, supporting its use in East Asian patients with previously treated advanced/recurrent EC.

Abstract
AIM We investigated the efficacy and safety of durvalumab (D) with or without tremelimumab (T) in addition to single-agent chemotherapy (CT) in patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer (PROC) lacking homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene mutations. PATIENTS AND METHODS KGOG 3045 was an open-label, investigator-initiated phase II umbrella trial. Patients with PROC without HRR gene mutations who had received ≥2 prior lines of therapy were enrolled. Patients with high PD-L1 expression (TPS ≥25%) were assigned to arm A (D + CT), whereas those with low PD-L1 expression were assigned to arm B (D + T75 + CT). After completing arm B recruitment, patients were sequentially assigned to arms C (D + T300 + CT) and D (D + CT). RESULTS Overall, 58 patients were enrolled (5, 18, 17, and 18 patients in arms A, B, C, and D, respectively). The objective response rates were 20.0, 33.3, 29.4, and 22.2%, respectively. Grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 20.0, 66.7, 47.1, and 66.7 of patients, respectively, but were effectively managed. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that adding T to D + CT improved progression-free survival (adjusted HR, 0.435; 95% CI, 0.229-0.824; P = 0.011). Favorable response to chemoimmunotherapy was associated with MUC16 mutation (P = 0.0214), high EPCAM expression (P = 0.020), high matrix remodeling gene signature score (P = 0.017), and low FOXP3 expression (P = 0.047). Patients showing favorable responses to D + T + CT exhibited significantly higher EPCAM expression levels (P = 0.008) and matrix remodeling gene signature scores (P = 0.031) than those receiving D + CT. CONCLUSIONS Dual immunotherapy with chemotherapy showed acceptable response rates and tolerable safety in HRR non-mutated PROC, warranting continued clinical investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Retrospective data suggest that the incidence of parametrial infiltration is low in patients with early-stage low-risk cervical cancer, which raises questions regarding the need for radical hysterectomy in these patients. However, data from large, randomized trials comparing outcomes of radical and simple hysterectomy are lacking. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, randomized, noninferiority trial comparing radical hysterectomy with simple hysterectomy including lymph-node assessment in patients with low-risk cervical cancer (lesions of ≤2 cm with limited stromal invasion). The primary outcome was cancer recurrence in the pelvic area (pelvic recurrence) at 3 years. The prespecified noninferiority margin for the between-group difference in pelvic recurrence at 3 years was 4 percentage points. RESULTS Among 700 patients who underwent randomization (350 in each group), the majority had tumors that were stage IB1 according to the 2009 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) criteria (91.7%), that had squamous-cell histologic features (61.7%), and that were grade 1 or 2 (59.3%). With a median follow-up time of 4.5 years, the incidence of pelvic recurrence at 3 years was 2.17% in the radical hysterectomy group and 2.52% in the simple hysterectomy group (an absolute difference of 0.35 percentage points; 90% confidence interval, -1.62 to 2.32). Results were similar in a per-protocol analysis. The incidence of urinary incontinence was lower in the simple hysterectomy group than in the radical hysterectomy group within 4 weeks after surgery (2.4% vs. 5.5%; P = 0.048) and beyond 4 weeks (4.7% vs. 11.0%; P = 0.003). The incidence of urinary retention in the simple hysterectomy group was also lower than that in the radical hysterectomy group within 4 weeks after surgery (0.6% vs. 11.0%; P<0.001) and beyond 4 weeks (0.6% vs. 9.9%; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS In patients with low-risk cervical cancer, simple hysterectomy was not inferior to radical hysterectomy with respect to the 3-year incidence of pelvic recurrence and was associated with a lower risk of urinary incontinence or retention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to determine the safety and efficacy of the RKP00156 vaginal tablet, a CDK9 inhibitor, in healthy women and patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 (CIN2). METHODS We conducted a phase 1/2a clinical trial of RKP00156. In step 1, RKP00156 at a dose of 10, 25, or 50 mg or a placebo tablet was administered transvaginally to 24 healthy women. In step 2, RKP00156 at a dose of 10, 25, or 50 mg or a placebo tablet was administered once daily for 4 weeks in 62 patients with CIN2. The primary endpoints of this trial were the safety of RKP00156 and the change in the human papillomavirus (HPV) viral load. RESULTS A total of 86 patients were enrolled and randomized. RKP00156 administration did not cause serious drug-associated adverse events (AEs). Although no significant difference in the HPV viral load was found between the experimental and placebo groups, a reduction in the HPV viral load was observed in the 25 mg-dose group (-98.61%; 95% confidence interval=-99.83%, 4.52%; p=0.046) after treatment completion in patients with a high HPV viral load, despite a lack of statistical power. No differences in histologic regression and HPV clearance were observed. CONCLUSION The safety of RKP00156 was proved with no serious AEs. Although the study did not show any significance in histologic regression and HPV clearance, our findings indicate that RKP00156 may have a possibility of short-term inhibitory effect on HPV replication in patients with higher viral loads.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bulky or multiple lymph node (LN) metastases are associated with poor prognosis in cervical cancer, and the size or number of LN metastases is not yet reflected in the staging system and therapeutic strategy. Although the therapeutic effects of surgical resection of bulky LNs before standard treatment have been reported in several retrospective studies, well-planned randomized clinical studies are lacking. Therefore, the aim of the Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group (KGOG) 1047/DEBULK trial is to investigate whether the debulking surgery of bulky or multiple LNs prior to concurrent chemoradiation therapy (CCRT) improves the survival rate of patients with cervical cancer IIICr diagnosed by imaging tests. METHODS The KGOG 1047/DEBULK trial is a phase III, multicenter, randomized clinical trial involving patients with bulky or multiple LN metastases in cervical cancer IIICr. This study will include patients with a short-axis diameter of a pelvic or para-aortic LN ≥2 cm or ≥3 LNs with a short-axis diameter ≥1 cm and for whom CCRT is planned. The treatment arms will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio to either receive CCRT (control arm) or undergo surgical debulking of bulky or multiple LNs before CCRT (experimental arm). CCRT consists of extended-field external beam radiotherapy/pelvic radiotherapy, brachytherapy and LN boost, and weekly chemotherapy with cisplatin (40 mg/m²), 4-6 times administered intravenously. The primary endpoint will be 3-year progression-free survival rate. The secondary endpoints will be 3-year overall survival rate, treatment-related complications, and accuracy of radiological diagnosis of bulky or multiple LNs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early results from the phase II MEDIOLA study (NCT02734004) in germline BRCA1- and/or BRCA2-mutated (gBRCAm) platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (PSROC) showed promising efficacy and safety with olaparib plus durvalumab. We report efficacy and safety of olaparib plus durvalumab in an expansion cohort of women with gBRCAm PSROC (gBRCAm expansion doublet cohort) and two cohorts with non-gBRCAm PSROC, one of which also received bevacizumab (non-gBRCAm doublet and triplet cohorts). PATIENTS AND METHODS In this open-label, multicenter study, PARP inhibitor-naïve patients received olaparib plus durvalumab treatment until disease progression; the non-gBRCAm triplet cohort also received bevacizumab. Primary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR; gBRCAm expansion doublet cohort), disease control rate (DCR) at 24 weeks (non-gBRCAm cohorts), and safety (all cohorts). RESULTS The full analysis and safety analysis sets comprised 51, 32, and 31 patients in the gBRCAm expansion doublet, non-gBRCAm doublet, and non-gBRCAm triplet cohorts, respectively. ORR was 92.2% [95% confidence interval (CI), 81.1-97.8] in the gBRCAm expansion doublet cohort (primary endpoint); DCR at 24 weeks was 28.1% (90% CI, 15.5-43.9) in the non-gBRCAm doublet cohort (primary endpoint) and 74.2% (90% CI, 58.2-86.5) in the non-gBRCAm triplet cohort (primary endpoint). Grade ≥ 3 adverse events were reported in 47.1%, 65.6%, and 61.3% of patients in the gBRCAm expansion doublet, non-gBRCAm doublet, and non-gBRCAm triplet cohorts, respectively, most commonly anemia. CONCLUSIONS Olaparib plus durvalumab continued to show notable clinical activity in women with gBRCAm PSROC. Olaparib plus durvalumab with bevacizumab demonstrated encouraging clinical activity in women with non-gBRCAm PSROC. No new safety signals were identified.

Abstract
Choosing an optimal concomitant drug for combination with poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor based on patient-specific biomarker status may help increase to improve treatment efficacy in patients with ovarian cancer. However, the efficacy and safety of different PARP inhibitor-based combinations in patients with homologous recombination repair (HRR) mutations have not been evaluated in ovarian cancer. In this sub-study of Korean Gynecologic Oncology Group (KGOG) 3045, we compared the efficacy and safety of two olaparib-based combinations and biomarkers of patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer with HRR gene mutations. Patients were randomized to receive either olaparib (200 mg twice a day) + cediranib (30 mg daily) (Arm 1, n = 16) or olaparib (300 mg) + durvalumab (1,500 mg once every 4 weeks) (Arm 2, n = 14). The objective response rates for Arm 1 and Arm 2 were 50.0% and 42.9%, respectively. Most patients (83.3%) had BRCA mutations, which were similarly distributed between arms. Grade 3 or 4 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 37.5% and 35.7% of the patients, respectively, but all were managed properly. A high vascular endothelial growth factor signature was associated with favorable outcomes in Arm 1, whereas immune markers (PD-L1 expression [CPS ≥10], CD8, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio) were associated with favorable outcomes in Arm 2. The activation of homologous recombination pathway upon disease progression was associated with poor response to subsequent therapy. Based on comprehensive biomarker profiling, including immunohistochemistry, whole-exome and RNA sequencing and whole blood-based analyses, we identified biomarkers that could help inform which of the two combination strategies is appropriate given a patient's biomarker status. Our findings have the potential to improve treatment outcome for patients with ovarian cancer in the PARP inhibitor era.

Abstract
Gestational choriocarcinoma accounts for 5% of gestational trophoblastic neoplasms. Approximately 50%, 25%, and 25% of gestational choriocarcinoma occur after molar pregnancies, term pregnancies, and other gestational events, respectively. The FIGO scoring system categorizes patients into low (score 0 to 6) and high risk (score 7 or more) choriocarcinoma. Single-agent and multi-agent chemotherapy are used in low- and high-risk patients, respectively. Chemotherapy for localized disease has a goal of eradication of disease without surgery and is associated with favorable prognosis and fertility preservation. Most patients with gestational choriocarcinoma are cured with chemotherapy; however, some (<5.0%) will die as a result of multi-drug resistance, underscoring the need for novel approaches in this group of patients. Although there are limited data due to its rarity, the treatment response with immunotherapy is high, ranging between 50-70%. Novel combinations of immune checkpoint inhibitors with targeted therapies (including VEGFR-2 inhibitors) are under evaluation. PD-L1 inhibitors are considered a potential important opportunity for chemo-resistant patients, and to replace or de-escalate chemotherapy to avoid or minimize chemotherapy toxicity. In this review, the Rare Tumor Working Group and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer evaluated the current landscape and further perspective in the management of patients diagnosed with gestational choriocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study assessed the antitumor activity and safety of durvalumab plus tremelimumab combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients newly diagnosed with advanced ovarian cancer. Here, we report the primary endpoint of the original cohort of the KGOG 3046/TRU-D study. METHODS In this investigator-initiated single-arm, phase II trial, patients with stage IIIC-IVB ovarian cancer were administered three cycles of durvalumab (1500 mg) and tremelimumab (75 mg) with NAC, followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS). After surgery, three cycles of durvalumab (1120 mg) and adjuvant chemotherapy followed by durvalumab maintenance (1120 mg [total 12 cycles]) were administered. The primary endpoint of the study was 12-month progression-free survival (PFS) rate. RESULTS Twenty-three patients were enrolled. The median patient age was 60 years (range 44-77 years), and most patients presented with high-grade serous carcinoma (87.0%) and stage IV disease (87.0%). At the time of data cut-off on January 17, 2023, the median follow-up duration was 29.2 months (range 12.0-42.2). The 12-month, 24-month, and 30 month PFS rates were 63.6%, 45.0%, and 40.0%, respectively. All patients underwent IDS, with an R0 resection rate of 73.9%, and 17.4% achieved pathological complete response. Skin rashes were the most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs, 69.6%). However, all TRAEs completely resolved after steroid use. CONCLUSION This study showed promising activity with a durable clinical response, supporting the potential of NAC with dual immune checkpoint blockade in advanced-stage ovarian cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In 2014, the World Health Organization introduced a new histologic classification by dividing primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma (PMOC) into two: expansile (ES) or infiltrative subtypes (IS). This study investigated the clinical implications of these histological subtypes on survival outcomes. METHODS Data from 131 patients with PMOC who underwent primary surgery between 2003 and 2021 were analyzed. The patients baseline characteristics, surgical and pathological information were collected. Survival outcomes were calculated, while factors affecting them were also investigated. RESULTS During 55.9 months of median follow-up, 27 (20.6%) patients experienced recurrence and 20 (15.3%) died. Among 131 patients, 113 patients were classified into 87 (77%) ES and 26 (23%) IS after a slide review. Advanced stage, lymph node involvement, and residual tumors after surgery were more common in the IS, showing poorer prognosis. In multivariate analyses, advanced stage and residual tumors after surgery were associated with worse survival, while the IS showed no statistical significance. In subgroup analysis for stage I disease, survival did not vary between subtypes. Nevertheless, patients in the IS group who underwent fertility-sparing surgeries demonstrated a 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of 83.3%, significantly lower than patients without fertility preservation, irrespective of histologic subtypes (5-year PFS rate: 97.9%; P = 0.002 for the ES, 5-year PFS rate: 100%; P = 0.001 for the IS). CONCLUSIONS The IS of PMOC had poorer survival outcomes and a higher proportion of advanced-stage tumors. Although its independent prognostic significance remains uncertain, adjuvant chemotherapy should be considered for patients with fertility preservation in the IS group.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is a rare, highly aggressive tumor, with median survival around 5 months. Approximately half of the ATC patients presents with distant metastases at diagnosis, showing even more devastating prognosis, yet no outcome analysis had been reported. In this study, we aim to evaluate the clinical outcome of M1 ATC patients, and to define the group of patients who would benefit from local treatment based on multi-disciplinary approach. MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 133 histology-confirmed ATC patients underwent protocol-based multidisciplinary treatment including surgery and chemoradiotherapy (CRT) between May 2016 and January 2022. Patients received intensity-modulated radiotherapy of 30 fractions concurrently with paclitaxel on days 1, 8 and 15 every 4 weeks, and lenvatinib was added upon progression. After 18 fractions of CRT, interim response analysis using modified RECIST was conducted for adaptive treatment planning. We reviewed 58 patients with distant metastasis at diagnosis (stage IVC). Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were measured from the day of diagnosis. RESULTS Most common metastatic site was lung (91.4%), followed by bone (31.0%) and brain (5.2%). Lenvatinib was added for 35 patients after any sign of progression. Fourteen patients received upfront surgery (16 debulking and 5 total) followed by adjuvant CRT in 16 patients. Thirty-one patients received upfront CRT with 2 patients receiving total resection after sufficient down-staging. Six (10%) patients could not complete radiotherapy but continued receiving systemic treatment. The median follow-up was 5.9 months. The median and 1-year OS were 6.2 months and 20.5%, and PFS were 3.7 months and 3.5%. Total RT dose over 60 Gy significantly improved median OS (7.5 vs 4.1 months, p = 0.012) and median PFS (4.4 vs 3.0, p = 0.010). Patients with less than 10 initial metastatic tumors showed better median OS (9.1 vs 4.6 months, p = 0.002) but not PFS (5.1 vs 3.6, p = 0.485). At interim analysis, early response (CR, PR and SD) of primary tumor was not associated with survival, while progression of distant metastases showed significantly worse median OS (9.8 vs 4.6 months, p = 0.001). More than 10 metastatic tumors (HR 2.73, 95% CI 1.32-5.66) and stable metastasis at interim analysis (HR 2.39, 95% CI 1.04-5.48) remained as significant factor in the multivariable cox regression analysis. Median OS and PFS of patients with less than 10 metastases showing no progression at interim analysis were 9.1 months, and 5.1 months. CONCLUSION Local treatment combined with chemotherapy for M1 ATC patients showed outcome comparable to those of non-metastatic ATC results. Active local treatment should be considered especially for patients with less than 10 metastases, and patients without distant progression in early response evaluation.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) MR-guided radiotherapy (MRgRT) provides superior soft-tissue contrast over CT-based image guidance. We collected and analyzed daily pre-treatment (PRE) and real-time motion-monitoring (MM) MR images of patients receiving prostate radiotherapy to assess interfractional and intrafractional variability of prostate using two localization methods: pelvic bony anatomy (bone) and prostate during online adaptive radiotherapy (ART). MATERIALS/METHODS PRE and MM MRIs for the first five fractions of twenty prostate cancer patients who received definitive MRgRT with 1.5T MRI were collected. Using MIM software, rigid registration between PRE MRI and planning CT images based on pelvic bony anatomy and prostate reproduced bone localization and online ART, respectively. To determine interfractional setup margin (SM), prostate was delineated on all PRE MRIs registered after bone and prostate localizations by a radiation oncologist, and centroid values of prostate contours between planning CT and PRE MRIs were compared. To determine interobserver variability, another radiation oncologist, a medical physicist, and a radiotherapist contoured prostate for both localization methods. For internal margin (IM) assessment, we used MM MRIs of the five patients who had all three sets of coronal, sagittal, and axial cine images and determined the maximum contour displacement using in-house MATLAB-based software converting binary image files to 2D cine images with a superimposed grid of 1 mm spacing. RESULTS A total of 100 PRE and 25 MM MRIs were analyzed. Four hundred prostate contours were delineated on MR images registered with planning CT based on both bony anatomy and prostate. After bone localization, SM was 0.57±0.42 mm in left-right (LR), 2.45±1.98 mm in anterior-posterior (AP), and 2.28±2.08 mm in superior-inferior (SI) directions, and IO was 1.06±0.58 mm in LR, 2.32±1.08 mm in AP, and 3.30±1.85 mm in SI directions. After prostate localization, SM was 0.76±0.57 mm in LR, 1.89±1.60 mm in AP, and 2.2±1.79 mm in SI directions, and IO was 1.11±0.55 mm in LR, 2.13±1.07 mm in AP, and 3.53±1.65 mm in SI directions. Average IM was 2.12±0.86 mm, 2.24±1.07 mm, and 2.84±0.88 mm in LR, AP, and SI directions, respectively. CONCLUSION Using daily MRIs from MRgRT, we showed that movements in the SI direction were the largest source of variability in prostate definitive RT. In addition, interobserver variability was a non-negligible source of margin. Optimal PTV margin should also consider internal margin, especially in the SI direction.

Abstract
Introduction To evaluate the survival impact of supradiaphragmatic lymphadenectomy as part of debulking surgery in stage IVB ovarian cancer with thoracic lymph node metastasis (LNM). Methods We retrospectively enrolled patients diagnosed with stage IVB ovarian, fallopian or primary peritoneal cancer between 2010 and 2020, carrying cardiophrenic, parasternal, anterior mediastinal or supraclavicular lymph nodes ≥5 mm on axial chest computed tomography. All tumors were classified into the abdominal (abdominal tumors and cardiophrenic lymph nodes) and supradiaphragmatic (parasternal, anterior mediastinal or supraclavicular lymph nodes) categories depending on the area involved. Residual tumors were classified into <5 vs ≥5 mm in the abdominal and supradiaphragmatic areas. Based on the site of recurrence, they were divided into abdominal, supradiaphragmatic and other areas. Results A total of 120 patients underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS, n=68) and interval debulking surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (IDS/NAC, n=53). Residual tumors in the supradiaphragmatic area ≥5 mm adversely affected progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) with marginal significance after PDS despite the lack of effect on survival after IDS/NAC (adjusted hazard ratios [HRs], 6.478 and 6.370; 95% confidence intervals [CIs], 2.224-18.864 and 0.953-42.598). Further, the size of residual tumors in the abdominal area measuring ≥5 mm diminished OS after IDS/NAC (adjusted HR, 9.330; 95% CIs, 1.386-62.800). Conclusion Supradiaphragmatic lymphadenectomy during PDS may improve survival in patients diagnosed with stage IVB ovarian cancer manifesting thoracic LNM. Further, suboptimal debulking surgery in the abdominal area may be associated with poor OS after IDS/NAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The complex of C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) and its ligand, C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), plays an essential role in cancer cell proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. These are emerging therapeutic targets, and recent studies have reported that inhibition of CXCL12-CXCR4 signaling pathway enhances the effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors. Thus, we aimed to investigate tissue expression of CXCL12 and CXCR4 in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) and to determine their potential as prognostic markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used chemotherapy-naïve, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded primary ovarian cancer tissues obtained from patients with advanced-stage HGSOC at the time of primary cytoreductive surgery. After histological reassessment, we constructed a tissue microarray and performed immunohistochemical staining for CXCL12 and CXCR4. Thereafter, clinicopathological characteristics and survival outcomes were compared between the high- and low-expression groups. RESULTS A total of 97 patients with FIGO stage IIIC-IV HGSOC were included: 15 (15.5%), 66 (68.0%), and 13 (13.4%) patients showed high expression of CXCL12, CXCR4, and both, respectively. The expression level of each protein was not associated with germline BRCA1/2 mutational status, FIGO stage, or residual tumor after primary cytoreductive surgery. In multivariate analysis adjusted for confounders, high CXCL12 expression was identified as an independent poor prognostic biomarker for progression-free survival (adjusted hazards ratio, 1.990; 95% confidence interval=1.090-3.633; p=0.025). However, CXCR4 expression was not associated with patient survival outcomes. CONCLUSION The CXCL12 expression level may represent a prognostic biomarker for HGSOC. Proteins related to the CXCL12/CXCR4 complex may serve as therapeutic targets in HGSOC treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the prognostic significance of L1 cell-adhesion molecule (L1CAM), β-catenin, and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in endometrial cancer (EC) patients, with a focus on p53 wild-type subgroup, for additional risk stratification. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included EC patients classified according to Proactive Molecular Risk Classifier for Endometrial Cancer (ProMisE) who underwent primary surgical treatment at the single center between January 2014 and December 2018. Immunohistochemical staining was performed for four mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, p53, L1CAM, β-catenin, and PD-L1. DNA polymerase epsilon (POLE) mutation was detected by hot spot sequencing via droplet digital polymerase chain reaction. Survival outcome of each subgroup of L1CAM, β-catenin, and PD-L1 was measured according to their expression. RESULTS A total of 162 EC patients were included. Endometrioid histologic type and early-stage disease were 140 (86.4%) and 109 (67.3%), respectively. ProMisE classification assigned 48 (29.6%), 16 (9.9%), 72 (44.4%), and 26 (16.0%) patients to MMR-deficient, POLE-mutated, p53 wild-type, and p53 abnormal subgroups, respectively. L1CAM was identified as an independent poor prognostic factor for progression-free survival (PFS; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 3.207; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.432-7.187; P = 0.005), whereas β-catenin and PD-L1 positivity were not associated with recurrence (P = 0.462 and P = 0.152, respectively). In p53 wild-type subgroup, L1CAM positivity was associated with worse PFS (aHR, 4.906; 95% CI, 1.685-14.287; P = 0.004). CONCLUSION L1CAM positivity was associated with poor prognosis in EC and further stratified the risk of recurrence in p53 wild-type subgroup, whereas β-catenin and PD-L1 were not informative for risk stratification.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previously, we suggested that patients with cervical cancer (CC) with tumors ≤2 cm on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are safe candidates for laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH). Here, we aim to investigate whether LRH deteriorates the prognosis of patients with incidentally identified high-risk factors; lymph node metastasis (LNM) or parametrial invasion (PMI). METHODS We identified patients with 2009 FIGO stage IB1 CC who underwent Type C LRH or open radical hysterectomy (ORH) at three tertiary hospitals between 2000 and 2019. Those with a tumor ≤2 cm on preoperative MRI who were not suspicious of LNM or PMI preoperatively were included, while those who were indicated to receive adjuvant treatment but did not actually receive it were excluded. Survival outcomes were compared between the LRH and ORH groups in the overall population, then narrowed down to those with LNM, and then to those with PMI. RESULTS In total, 498 patients were included: 299 in the LRH group and 199 in the ORH group. The LRH and ORH groups showed similar 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) (94.0% vs. 93.6%; P = 0.615) and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates (97.2% vs. 96.8%; P = 0.439). On pathologic examination, 49 (9.8%) and 16 (3.2%) patients had LNM and PMI, respectively, and 10 (2.0%) had both. In the LNM subgroup, 5-year PFS rate was not significantly different between the LRH and ORH groups (73.2% vs. 91.7%; P = 0.169). In the PMI subgroup, no difference in PFS was observed between the two groups (P = 0.893). CONCLUSIONS LRH might not deteriorate recurrence and mortality rates in CC patients with tumors ≤2 cm when adjuvant treatment is appropriately administered, even if pathologic LNM and PMI are incidentally identified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of conization on survival outcomes and to identify a specific population that might benefit from conization before radical hysterectomy (RH) in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. METHODS From six institutions in Korea, we identified node-negative, margin-negative, parametria-negative, 2009 FIGO stage IB1 cervical cancer patients who underwent primary type C RH between 2006 and 2021. The patients were divided into multiple groups based on tumor size, surgical approach, and histology. We performed a series of independent 1:1 propensity score matching and compared the survival outcomes between the conization and non-conization groups. RESULTS In total, 1254 patients were included: conization (n = 355) and non-conization (n = 899). Among the matched patients with a tumor size of >2 cm, the conization group showed a significantly better 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rate compared with the non-conization group when RH was conducted via minimally invasive surgery (MIS), in those with squamous cell carcinoma (96.3% vs. 87.4%, P = 0.007) and non-squamous cell carcinoma (97.0% vs. 74.8%, P = 0.021). However, no difference in DFS was observed between the two groups among the matched patients with a tumor size of ≤2 cm, regardless of surgical approach or histological type. In patients who underwent MIS RH, DFS significantly worsened as the residual tumor size increased (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Cervical conization was associated with a lower recurrence rate in patients with early-stage cervical cancer with a tumor size of >2 cm who underwent primary MIS RH. Cervical conization may be performed prior to MIS RH to minimize the uterine residual tumor.

Abstract
Ovarian cancer is one of the most lethal female cancers. For accurate prognosis prediction, this study aimed to investigate novel, blood-based prognostic biomarkers for high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) using mass spectrometry-based proteomics methods. We conducted label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry using frozen plasma samples obtained from patients with newly diagnosed HGSOC (n = 20). Based on progression-free survival (PFS), the samples were divided into two groups: good (PFS ≥18 months) and poor prognosis groups (PFS <18 months). Proteomic profiles were compared between the two groups. Referring to proteomics data that we previously obtained using frozen cancer tissues from chemotherapy-naïve patients with HGSOC, overlapping protein biomarkers were selected as candidate biomarkers. Biomarkers were validated using an independent set of HGSOC plasma samples (n = 202) via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). To construct models predicting the 18-month PFS rate, we performed stepwise selection based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) with 5-fold cross-validation. Analysis of differentially expressed proteins in plasma samples revealed that 35 and 61 proteins were upregulated in the good and poor prognosis groups, respectively. Through hierarchical clustering and bioinformatic analyses, GSN, VCAN, SND1, SIGLEC14, CD163, and PRMT1 were selected as candidate biomarkers and were subjected to ELISA. In multivariate analysis, plasma GSN was identified as an independent poor prognostic biomarker for PFS (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.556; 95% confidence interval, 1.073-2.256; p = 0.020). By combining clinical factors and ELISA results, we constructed several models to predict the 18-month PFS rate. A model consisting of four predictors (FIGO stage, residual tumor after surgery, and plasma levels of GSN and VCAN) showed the best predictive performance (mean validated AUC, 0.779). The newly developed model was converted to a nomogram for clinical use. Our study results provided insights into protein biomarkers, which might offer clues for developing therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Endometrial carcinosarcoma is a rare and aggressive high-grade endometrial carcinoma with secondary sarcomatous trans-differentiation (conversion theory). The clinical presentation and diagnostic work-up roughly align with those of the more common endometrioid counterpart, although endometrial carcinosarcoma is more frequently diagnosed at an advanced stage. Endometrial carcinosarcoma is not a single entity but encompasses different histological subtypes, depending on the type of carcinomatous and sarcomatous elements. The majority of endometrial carcinosarcomas are characterized by p53 abnormalities. The proportion of POLE and microsatellite instablity-high (MSI-H) is directly related to the epithelial component, being approximately 25% and 3% in endometrioid and non-endometrioid components.The management of non-metastatic disease is based on a multimodal approach with optimal surgery followed by (concomitant or sequential) chemotherapy and radiotherapy, even for early stages. Palliative chemotherapy is recommended in the metastatic or recurrent setting, with carboplatin/paclitaxel doublet being the first-line regimen. Although the introduction of immunotherapy plus/minus a tyrosine kinase inhibitor shifted the paradigm of treatment of patients with recurrent endometrial cancer, patients with endometrial carcinosarcoma were excluded from most studies evaluating single-agent immunotherapy or the combination. However, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) approved the use of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib in endometrial cancer (all histotypes) after progression on chemotherapy and single-agent immunotherapy in MSI-H cancers. In the era of precision medicine, emerging knowledge on molecular endometrial carcinosarcoma is opening new promising therapeutic options for more personalized treatment. The present review outlines state-of-the-art knowledge and future directions for patients with endometrial carcinosarcoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the impact of BRCA1/2 mutational status on survival outcomes in patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed (PSR) epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively identified patients who received secondary treatment for PSR EOC at our institution between January 2007 and June 2021 and who underwent BRCA1/2 gene testing by either germline or somatic methods. The association between BRCA1/2 mutational status and survival outcomes was evaluated. Both secondary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and maintenance therapy were stratified considering real-world clinical practice. RESULTS Of 262 patients, 91 (34.7%) and 171 (65.3%) were assigned to BRCA1/2 mutation and wild-type groups, respectively. The two groups had similar proportions of patients undergoing secondary CRS (26.4% vs. 32.7%, p=0.286) and maintenance therapy (54.9% vs. 46.2%, p=0.178). Overall, no differences in progression-free survival (PFS; median, 19.7 vs. 15.1 months, p=0.120) and overall survival (OS; p=0.400) were observed between the two groups. In multivariate analyses, BRCA1/2 mutational status was not associated with PFS (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.816; 95% confidence interval, 0.596 to 1.119; p=0.207). BRCA1/2 mutational status did not affect PFS among patients who underwent secondary CRS (n=80) and among those who did not (n=182) (p=0.074 and p=0.222, respectively). PFS did not differ in the BRCA1/2 mutational status among the patients who received bevacizumab maintenance (n=90, p=0.992). CONCLUSION In this real-world evidence study, BRCA1/2 mutational status itself was not associated with PFS and OS in PSR EOC, which was consistent with whether secondary CRS or not and with bevacizumab maintenance.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to compare treatment outcomes and toxicity profile between imaged-guided brachytherapy (IGBT) versus conventional brachytherapy (CBT) performed by the same practitioner during the same time period. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records of 104 eligible patients who underwent brachytherapy for locally advanced cervical cancer were retrospectively reviewed. Fifty patients (48.1%) underwent IGBT, and 54 (51.9%) patients underwent CBT. All patients underwent concurrent chemoradiation with cisplatin. High-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy with dose prescription of 25-30 Gy in 4-6 fractions was performed for all patients. Late lower gastrointestinal (GI) and urinary toxicities occurred more than 3 months after the end of brachytherapy were included for comparative and dosimetric analyses. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 18.33 months (range, 3.25 to 38.43 months). There were no differences in oncologic outcomes between the two groups. The IGBT group had lower rate of actuarial grade ≥ 3 toxicity than the CBT group (2-year, 4.5% vs. 25.7%; p=0.030). Cumulative equieffective D2cc of sigmoid colon was significantly correlated with grade ≥ 2 lower GI toxicity (p=0.033), while equieffective D2cc of rectum (p=0.055) and bladder (p=0.069) showed marginal significance with corresponding grade ≥ 2 toxicities in the IGBT group. Half of grade ≥ 3 lower GI toxicities impacted GI tract above the rectum. Optimal thresholds of cumulative D2cc of sigmoid colon and rectum were 69.7 Gy and 70.8 Gy, respectively, for grade ≥ 2 lower GI toxicity. CONCLUSION IGBT showed superior toxicity profile to CBT. Evaluating the dose to the GI tract above rectum by IGBT might prevent some toxicities.

Abstract
PURPOSE Advanced-stage mucinous ovarian carcinoma (MOC) has poor chemotherapy response and prognosis and lacks biomarkers to aid stage I adjuvant treatment. Differentiating primary MOC from gastrointestinal (GI) metastases to the ovary is also challenging due to phenotypic similarities. Clinicopathologic and gene-expression data were analyzed to identify prognostic and diagnostic features. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Discovery analyses selected 19 genes with prognostic/diagnostic potential. Validation was performed through the Ovarian Tumor Tissue Analysis consortium and GI cancer biobanks comprising 604 patients with MOC (n = 333), mucinous borderline ovarian tumors (MBOT, n = 151), and upper GI (n = 65) and lower GI tumors (n = 55). RESULTS Infiltrative pattern of invasion was associated with decreased overall survival (OS) within 2 years from diagnosis, compared with expansile pattern in stage I MOC [hazard ratio (HR), 2.77; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.04-7.41, P = 0.042]. Increased expression of THBS2 and TAGLN was associated with shorter OS in MOC patients (HR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.04-1.51, P = 0.016) and (HR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.01-1.45, P = 0.043), respectively. ERBB2 (HER2) amplification or high mRNA expression was evident in 64 of 243 (26%) of MOCs, but only 8 of 243 (3%) were also infiltrative (4/39, 10%) or stage III/IV (4/31, 13%). CONCLUSIONS An infiltrative growth pattern infers poor prognosis within 2 years from diagnosis and may help select stage I patients for adjuvant therapy. High expression of THBS2 and TAGLN in MOC confers an adverse prognosis and is upregulated in the infiltrative subtype, which warrants further investigation. Anti-HER2 therapy should be investigated in a subset of patients. MOC samples clustered with upper GI, yet markers to differentiate these entities remain elusive, suggesting similar underlying biology and shared treatment strategies.

Abstract
Patients with platinum-resistant or -refractory high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) have a poor prognosis, and their management represents a substantial unmet medical need. Preclinical data and results from a phase Ib trial demonstrated the efficacy and tolerability of the combination of the α-specific phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor alpelisib plus the poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor olaparib in platinum-resistant, non-BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer. Here, we describe the study design and rationale for the phase III, multicenter, open-label, randomized, active-controlled EPIK-O/ENGOT-OV61 trial investigating alpelisib in combination with olaparib compared with standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant or -refractory HGSOC with no germline BRCA mutation. Progression-free survival (blinded independent review committee) is the primary end point. Overall survival is a key secondary end point.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the impact of intraoperative hypotension and hemodynamic instability on survival outcomes in patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC). Methods We retrospectively identified patients with HGSOC, who underwent primary or interval debulking surgery between August 2013 and December 2019. We collected anesthesia-related variables, including the arterial blood pressure measurements (at 1-min intervals) during the surgery of patients. The cumulative duration of mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) readings under 65 mmHg and two performance measurements (median performance error [MDPE] and wobble) were calculated. We investigated associations between the factors indicating hemodynamic instability and prognosis. Results In total, 338 patients were included. Based on the cumulative duration of MAP under 65 mmHg, we divided patients into two groups: ≥30 min and <30 min. The progression-free survival (PFS) was worse in the ≥30 min group (n = 107) than the <30 min group (n = 231) (median, 18.2 vs. 23.7 months; P = 0.014). In multivariate analysis adjusting for confounders, a duration of ≥30 min of MAP under 65 mmHg was identified as an independent poor prognostic factor for PFS (adjusted HR, 1.376; 95% CI, 1.035–1.830; P = 0.028). Shorter PFS was observed in the group with a MDPE <−4.0% (adjusted HR, 1.351; 95% CI, 1.024–1.783; P = 0.033) and a wobble ≥7.5% (adjusted HR, 1.445; 95% CI, 1.100–1.899; P = 0.008). However, no differences were observed in overall survival. Conclusion This study suggests that the three intraoperative variables for hemodynamic instability, cumulative duration of MAP <65 mmHg, MDPE, and wobble, might be novel prognostic biomarkers for disease recurrence in patients with HGSOC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare survival outcomes of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and open surgery for radical hysterectomy (RH) in early cervical cancer patients with histologic subtypes of usual-type adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma. METHODS From two centers' cervical cancer cohorts, patients with 2009 FIGO stage IB1-IB2 who underwent RH between 2007 and 2020 were retrospectively identified. Patients with usual-type adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma were included in the analysis after pathologic review according to the updated World Health Organization Classification of Tumors. Clinicopathologic characteristics and survival outcomes were compared in terms of open surgery or MIS. RESULTS This study included 161 patients. No significant differences were noted in overall survival (OS; P = 0.241) and disease-free survival (DFS; P = 0.156) between patients with usual-type adenocarcinoma (n = 136) and those with adenosquamous carcinoma (n = 25). MIS RH group (n = 99) had a significantly smaller tumor size (P < 0.001), lesser pathologic parametrial invasion (P = 0.001), and lesser lymph node metastasis (P < 0.001) than open RH group (n = 62). MIS and open RH groups showed similar OS (P = 0.201) and 3-year DFS rate (87.9% vs. 75.1%; P = 0.184). In multivariate analysis, worse DFS was not associated with MIS (P = 0.589) but was associated with pathologic parametrial invasion (adjusted HR, 3.41; 95% CI, 1.25-9.29; P = 0.016). Consistent results were observed among patients with usual-type adenocarcinoma; MIS was not associated with worse DFS. CONCLUSIONS Comparable survival outcomes were found for MIS and open RH in early-stage cervical usual-type adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma. Although MIS RH was not a poor prognostic factor, pathologic parametrial invasion was significantly associated with worse DFS in cervical usual-type adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated survival outcomes for platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) by treatment method. METHODS OCCC patients with platinum-sensitive recurrence that received secondary treatment at five institutions between July 2007 and June 2021 were included. Patient characteristics and survival outcomes were compared according to the use of bevacizumab (BEV) during second-line chemotherapy and secondary cytoreductive surgery (CRS). RESULTS 138 patients were included. The BEV (n = 36) and non-BEV (n = 102) groups had similar initial FIGO stages and proportions of secondary CRS. The BEV group showed improved progression-free survival (PFS; median, 15.4 vs. 7.5 months; P = 0.042) and overall survival (OS; P = 0.043) compared to the non-BEV group. In multivariate analyses, BEV was identified as an independent prognostic factor for PFS (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.571; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.354-0.921; P = 0.022) and OS (aHR, 0.435; 95%CI, 0.195-0.970; P = 0.042). The secondary CRS group (n = 42) had early-stage disease at diagnosis more frequently (P = 0.009) and multi-site metastasis (P < 0.001) at recurrence less frequently than the no surgery group (n = 96). The secondary CRS group showed significantly better PFS (median, 33.7 vs. 7.2 months; P < 0.001) and OS (P < 0.001). Secondary CRS was associated with a significantly improved PFS (aHR, 0.297; 95% CI, 0.183-0.481; P < 0.001) and OS (aHR, 0.276; 95% CI, 0.133-0.576; P = 0.001). The BEV and non-BEV groups showed similar PFS and OS among the patients who underwent secondary CRS. In contrast, the BEV group showed improved PFS and OS among patients who did not undergo surgery. CONCLUSIONS The use of BEV during second-line chemotherapy and secondary CRS may improve PFS and OS in patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed OCCC. Further prospective studies are warranted.

Abstract
Background The mainstay of endometrial cancer treatment is surgical resection of tumors and postoperative adjuvant treatment is recommended if necessary. However, there is no consensus on the management of unresectable metastatic endometrial cancer. This study aimed to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (NAC-IDS) in unresectable, metastatic endometrial cancer. Methods From the endometrial cancer cohorts of four institutions in Korea, we identified patients with International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stages IIIC–IVB endometrial cancer who received NAC-IDS between January 2008 and December 2020. Through a medical record review, we collected patients’ clinicopathological data. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and the factors affecting survival outcomes were analyzed. Results Overall, 32 patients were included with endometrioid (n = 18), serous (n = 5), carcinosarcoma (n = 6), and other histological types (n = 3). Among them, 28 (87.5%) patients had stage IVB disease. The most common neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) regimen was paclitaxel-carboplatin (n = 25, 78.1%), which was administered for a median of six cycles. While 26 (81.3%) patients showed an objective response, two (6.3%) progressed despite NAC. At the time of interval debulking surgery (IDS), 23 (71.9%) patients achieved complete cytoreduction. During 31.0 months of the median follow-up, there were 23 recurrences and 11 deaths, corresponding to a median PFS of 19.7 months and a 3-year OS rate of 69.7%. In multivariate analyses, non-endometrioid histology and residual tumor after IDS were identified as independent poor prognostic factors for PFS (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 7.322; P < 0.001 and 5.934; P = 0.001, respectively). Multivariate analysis for OS could not be conducted because of the small number of events, although non-endometrioid histology was the only factor associated with worse OS in univariate analysis (adjusted HR, 4.523; P = 0.032). Conclusions NAC-IDS may be a treatment option for unresectable metastatic endometrial cancer. Tumor histology and the possibility of complete cytoreduction are the primary considerations for NAC-IDS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the SOLO2 trial (ENGOT Ov-21; NCT01874353), maintenance olaparib in patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (PSROC) and BRCA mutation significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and prolonged overall survival (OS). Following disease progression on olaparib, efficacy of subsequent chemotherapy remains unknown. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a post-hoc hypothesis-generating analysis of SOLO2 data to determine the efficacy of different chemotherapy regimens following RECIST disease progression in patients who received olaparib or placebo. We evaluated time to second progression (TTSP) calculated from the date of RECIST progression to the next progression/death. RESULTS The study population comprised 147 patients who received chemotherapy as their first subsequent treatment after RECIST progression. Of these, 69 (47%) and 78 (53%) were originally randomized to placebo and olaparib arms, respectively. In the placebo-treated cohort, 27/69 and 42/69 received non-platinum and platinum-based chemotherapy, respectively, compared with 24/78 and 54/78, respectively, in the olaparib-treated cohort. Among patients treated with chemotherapy (N = 147), TTSP was significantly longer in the placebo than in the olaparib arm: 12.1 versus 6.9 months [hazard ratio (HR) 2.17, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.47-3.19]. Similar result was obtained on multivariable analysis adjusting for prognostic factors at RECIST progression (HR 2.13, 95% CI 1.41-3.22). Among patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy (n = 96), TTSP was significantly longer in the placebo arm: 14.3 versus 7.0 months (HR 2.89, 95% CI 1.73-4.82). Conversely, among patients treated with non-platinum-based chemotherapy (n = 51), the TTSP was comparable in the placebo and olaparib arms: 8.3 versus 6.0 months (HR 1.58, 95% CI 0.86-2.90). CONCLUSIONS Following progression from maintenance olaparib in the recurrent setting, the efficacy of platinum-based subsequent chemotherapy seems to be reduced in BRCA1/2-mutated patients with PSROC compared to patients not previously receiving poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). The optimal strategy for patients who relapse after PARPi is an area of ongoing research.

Abstract
e17579 Background: The optimal treatment of BRCA wild-type patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent (PSR) ovarian cancer remains controversial. This single arm phase 2 study (OPEB-01) evaluated a triple combination regimen with olaparib, bevacizumab, and pembrolizumab as 2nd-line maintenance treatment in BRCA non-mutated, PSR ovarian cancer. Methods: Women with PSR ovarian cancer who had a partial or complete response to their most recent platinum-based regimen were eligible. Patients received olaparib 300mg PO bid daily, bevacizumab 15mg/kg IV q3w, and pembrolizumab 200mg IV q3w until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint of the study was 6-month PFS rate. A simon 2-stage design was utilized. Target accrual was 22 patients in the first stage; 13 or more patients with non-progressive disease at 6 months was required to proceed to second stage. Results: 22 patients were enrolled at the first stage. Median age was 60 years old and most of the patients (90.9%) had high-grade serous carcinoma. Secondary cytoreductive surgery was performed in 6 (27.3%) patients. The objective response rate (ORR) was 68.2% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 90.9%. At the time of data analysis (data cutoff Jan 19 2022), 20 (90.9%) had non-progressive disease at 6 months. No grade 4 adverse events were reported and no treatment related adverse events leading to treatment discontinuation was observed. Additional correlative data regarding homologous recombination deficiency and PD-L1 will be presented at the meeting. Conclusions: OPEB-01 is the first trial to suggest the potential benefit of triple combination maintenance in BRCA wild-type patients. These combinations showed a manageable safety profile. Accrual is ongoing in the second stage. Clinical trial information: NCT4361370.

Abstract
TPS5617 Background: Despite therapeutic advances in ovarian cancer, platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer (PROC) remains an area of high unmet clinical need and there is an urgent need for new treatments to further improve clinical outcomes. Addition of bevacizumab to non-platinum-based chemotherapy significantly improved PFS in patients with PROC but did not show a clear OS benefit. Thus far, the combination of paclitaxel and bevacizumab has shown the most promise in treatment of PROC, although the proportion of patients eligible for bevacizumab is limited by treatment-associated toxicities. Combination of the anti-PD-1 antibody pembrolizumab with weekly paclitaxel showed antitumor activity and manageable toxicity in patients with PROC in a single-arm, phase 2 study (Wenham Int J Gynecol Cancer 2018). The current study ENGOT-ov65/KEYNOTE-B96 (NCT05116189) compares the efficacy and safety of the addition of pembrolizumab to standard of care chemotherapy (weekly paclitaxel) with/without bevacizumab vs placebo plus weekly paclitaxel with/without bevacizumab in patients with PROC. Methods: In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, phase 3 study, eligible patients are aged ≥18 y with histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal carcinoma with 1-2 prior lines of systemic therapy, including at least 1 prior platinum-based therapy with ≥4 cycles in first line. Patients must have platinum-resistant disease (radiographic evidence of PD ≤6 mo after last platinum-based therapy dose), be eligible for paclitaxel (with/without bevacizumab per investigator discretion), have ECOG PS ≤1, radiographically evaluable disease per RECIST v1.1, and have a tumor sample for central evaluation of PD-L1 status. Approximately 616 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive pembrolizumab 400 mg IV or placebo Q6W for up to 18 cycles (̃2 y) plus paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 on days 1, 8, and 15 of each Q3W cycle (with/without bevacizumab 10 mg/kg Q2W per investigator discretion) until PD or unacceptable toxicity. Randomization is stratified by planned bevacizumab use (yes vs no), region (US vs Europe vs rest of world), and PD-L1 status (combined positive score [CPS] < 1 vs CPS 1- < 10 vs CPS ≥10). Tumor PD-L1 status is determined using the PD-L1 IHC 22C3 pharmDx (Investigational Use Only) diagnostic kit. Tumor imaging is performed Q9W from randomization to week 54 and Q12W thereafter. The primary endpoint is PFS per RECIST version 1.1 by investigator review in patients with tumor PD-L1 CPS ≥1 and in all patients. Secondary endpoints are OS in patients with tumor PD-L1 CPS ≥1 and in all patients, PFS per RECIST version 1.1 by blinded independent central review in patients with tumor PD-L1 CPS ≥1 and in all patients, safety, and patient-reported outcomes. Enrollment is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT05116189.

Abstract
5520 Background: The DESKTOP III trial has demonstrated a significant survival benefit in AGO-score positive patients who underwent complete cytoreduction at 1st relapse compared to those treated with chemotherapy alone. The question whether eligible patients who missed the opportunity of potentially life prolonging surgery at 1st relapse would benefit from surgery at the time of their second relapse, remains open. Methods: Patients randomized in the standard, non-surgical arm of the DESKTOP III trial who underwent cytoreductive surgery at a subsequent relapse at investigator’s discretion were separately analyzed. Results: The median progression-free survival (PFS) counted from randomization of 201 patients in the control arm of DESKTOP III was 14.0 months. 171 (85%) had progressive or relapsing disease and 32 of 171 (19%) underwent cytoreductive surgery. Patients’ median age at this subsequent surgery was 63 years (range: 46 – 78). Complete tumor resection was achieved in 19 patients (60%), while 5 (16%) had postoperative residual disease (n = 8 missing data). Sixteen patients (50%) commenced systemic treatment within 90 days from surgery, as documented. Thirty- and 90-day surgical mortality rates were 1 (3%) and 2 (6%), respectively. Within a postoperative median follow-up time of 43.8 months, 12 (38%) deaths were reported. Median overall survival after surgery (OS) was 54.0 months. One- and 2-year OS rates were 91% and 84%, respectively. Conclusions: Cytoreductive surgery for subsequent ovarian cancer relapse appears feasible and with low mortality in selected patients who received non-surgical treatment at 1st relapse despite a positive AGO-score. Surgery should be considered as an option in carefully selected patients also later in their journey within a specialized gynecological cancer setting. Clinical trial information: NCT01166737.

Abstract
5565 Background: The optimal treatment of recurrent ovarian clear cell carcinoma (rOCCC) remains unknown. Prior data suggests rOCCC is a chemo-resistant disease that may respond to programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI). We aimed to determine the efficacy of D versus PCC in pts with rOCCC. Methods: In this multicentre, open-label, randomised phase 2 trial, 9 academic centres across Singapore, South Korea and Australia, enrolled rOCCC (determined histologically) and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS) 0-2 pts, who had recurred after prior platinum-based chemotherapy and had not received more than 4 prior lines of systemic therapy, nor prior ICI therapy. Eligible pts were randomly assigned (2:1), using dynamic block randomization with block size of 6, and stratification by ECOG PS, to receive D (1500mg on day 1, in 28-day cycles) or PCC until disease progression (PD), intolerable toxicity or withdrawal of consent. Pts with PD on PCC were allowed to crossover to D. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS) by RECIST version 1.1 and analyses included pts who had commenced at least 1 cycle of study treatment. Results: Between 7 Nov 2017 and 17 Feb 2020, 57 pts were assessed for eligibility, of whom 47 (PS 0-1) were randomly assigned to treatment with D (31 pts) or PCC (16 pts). At the data cut-off date (10 Jan 2022), the median follow-up was 83.0 weeks (IQR: 54.1—97.0) in the PCC group and 107.0 weeks (IQR: 82.7—116.4) in the D group. Median PFS was 7.4 weeks (IQR: 6.0—16.0) in the D group and 14.0 (IQR: 7.0—28.6) in the PCC group (HR 1.5 [95% CI 0.8-2.8], log-rank p = 0.89). The objective response rate (ORR) was 10.7% in pts randomised to D and 18.8% in the PCC group (p = 0.884). Clinical benefit rate (CR/PR/SD for ≥16weeks) was similar for PCC (37.5%) and D (32.1%) (p = 0.756). 9 pts on PCC crossed over to receive D, with 2 of the 8 evaluable pts achieving partial response (PR). When crossover D pts were included, ORR to D was 13.9% (5/36) with a clinical benefit rate of 30.6% (11/36). Median duration of response was 44 weeks for the 3 PCC responders (PR to gemcitabine 24.9wks, PR to liposomal doxorubicin 65.7wks, CR to carboplatin/liposomal doxorubicin 44wks), and 18 weeks (range 2.1-45.3) for the 5 responders to D. Frequency of adverse events (AEs) across all grades was 68.8% for PCC and 38.7% for D. Grade 3/4 AEs were observed in 37.5% of PCC pts and 9.7% of D pts. Conclusions: No significant differences in PFS, ORR or clinical benefit rate were observed between D and PCC treatment in rOCCC. Treatment with D was associated with less grade 3-4 adverse events. Correlative translational analyses to elucidate predictive biomarkers of response and resistance are ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03405454.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the impact of size of residual tumors as determined by postoperative computed tomography (CT) on survival of patients with advanced, high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSC) who achieved residual disease less than 1 cm after primary debulking surgery (PDS). METHODS We collected data of patients with stage III HGSC who had residual tumor less than 1 cm after PDS between 2013 and 2018. Surgeon-assessed residual disease during surgery was defined as sR0 (no gross residual) or sR1 (gross residual <1 cm), and radiologist-assessed residual disease on postoperative CT was defined as rR0 (no evidence of disease) or rRany (existing residual disease). All patients were classified into the following groups: sR0/rR0, sR1/rR0, sR0/rRany, and sR1/rRany. RESULTS A total of 436 patients was placed into the sR0/rR0 (n = 187, 42.9%), sR1/rR0 (n = 59, 13.5%), sR0/rRany (n = 79, 18.1%), or sR1/rRany group (n = 111, 25.5%). Discrepancies between surgical and radiological assessments were recorded for 176 patients (40.4%) including 38 cases of sR1/rRany group with discordant residual tumor location indicated between two methods. During multivariate analysis, patients with ascites on preoperative CT, sR0/rRany group inclusion, and sR1/rRany group inclusion showed unfavorable progression-free and overall survival. CONCLUSIONS The incorporation of surgical and radiological evaluations for determining the size of residual tumors was more accurate than surgical evaluation only for predicting survival among patients with advanced ovarian cancer who underwent PDS to residual disease less than 1 cm.

Abstract
The world's largest Sihwa Tidal Power Plant (TPP), located on the west coast of Korea, was built in 2011 for the purpose of improving water quality and producing renewable energy. After several years of actual operation, most of the original purpose was achieved, but unexpected coastal environmental changes such as tidal flat damage and sediment accumulation also occurred. In this study, in order to understand the causes of these environmental changes, field observations were conducted near TPP, and spatial and temporal variability of flow structure and water exchange process were investigated. Three-dimensional velocity data were collected along the closed line surrounding the outside of the TPP for 11 h during spring tide and analyzed according to two discharge phases: power generation phase (PGP) and drainage phase (DP). The results show that the depth-averaged maximum current velocity was more than three times greater at DP than at PGP. Jet-like flow during DP caused very high horizontal shear, whereas vertical shear was relatively weak, indicating that the horizontal and vertical flow structures were very different. The most notable result is that the mass transport patterns between PGP and DP are significantly different, i.e., during PGP, mass transport is dominated on the left side of the TPP, whereas during DP, it occurs at the front of the TPP. This means that there is a strong spatiotemporal asymmetry between the inflow from the downstream (outside of the TPP) during PGP and the outflow from the upstream (inside of the TPP) during DP. These asymmetric processes can have a significant impact on the material exchange and sediment transport near the TPP. Since observational studies on TPP are extremely rare, this study is expected to contribute to future TPP related research, such as numerical modeling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND PHI-101 is an orally available, selective checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) inhibitor. PHI-101 has shown anti-tumour activity in ovarian cancer cell lines and impaired DNA repair pathways in preclinical experiments. Furthermore, the in vivo study suggests the synergistic effect of PHI-101 through combination with PARP inhibitors for ovarian cancer treatment. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PHI-101 in platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. METHODS Chk2 inhibitor for Recurrent EpitheliAl periToneal, fallopIan, or oVarian cancEr (CREATIVE) trial is a prospective, multi-centre, phase IA dose-escalation study. Six cohorts of dose levels are planned, and six to 36 patients are expected to be enrolled in this trial. Major inclusion criteria include ≥ 19 years with histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube carcinoma, or primary peritoneal cancer. Also, patients who showed disease progression during platinum-based chemotherapy or disease progression within 24 weeks from completion of platinum-based chemotherapy will be included, and prior chemotherapy lines of more than five will be excluded. The primary endpoint of this study is to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PHI-101. DISCUSSION PHI-101 is the first orally available Chk2 inhibitor, expected to show effectiveness in treating recurrent ovarian cancer. Through this CREATIVE trial, DLT and MTD of this new targeted therapy can be confirmed to find the recommended dose for the phase II clinical trial. This study may contribute to developing a new combination regimen for the treatment of ovarian cancer. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04678102 .

Abstract
In the 2021 series, we not only summarized the major clinical research advances in gynecologic oncology but also added discussions to every part, based on communications at the conference. A review of cervical cancer included adjuvant treatments such as radiation and chemoradiation (concurrent or sequential) after radical hysterectomy in early cervical cancer, and immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced, recurrent, and metastatic disease. Ovarian cancer research included studies of secondary cytoreductive surgery in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, and various trials of immune checkpoint inhibitors with or without vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors and conventional chemotherapy. The rechallenge of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor maintenance in heavily pretreated ovarian cancer were also addressed. For uterine corpus cancer, dostarlimab (anti-programmed cell death protein 1 antibody) alone, or a tyrosine kinase inhibitor in combination with pembrolizumab for advanced, metastatic, or recurrent endometrial cancer were reviewed. The survival differences between the intensive and minimalist follow-up protocols were also described. In this review, we compared salpingectomy with delayed oophorectomy and salpingo-oophorectomy in terms of quality of life in BRCA 1 and 2 pathogenic variant carriers.

Abstract
BRCA1/2 mutations account for only a small fraction of homologous recombination (HR) deficiency (HRD) cases. Recently developed genomic HRD (gHRD) tests suffer confounding factors that cause low precision in predicting samples that will respond to PARP inhibitors and DNA damaging agents. Here we present molecular and clinical evidence of transcriptional HRD (tHRD) that is based on aberrant transcript usage (aTU) of minor isoforms. Specifically, increased TU of nonfunctional isoforms of DNA repair genes was prevalent in breast and ovarian cancer with gHRD. Functional assays validated the association of aTU with impaired HR activity. Machine learning-based tHRD detection by the transcript usage (TU) pattern of key genes was superior to directly screening for gHRD or BRCA1/2 mutations in accurately predicting responses of cell lines and patients with cancer to PARP inhibitors and genotoxic drugs. This approach demonstrated the capability of tHRD status to reflect functional HR status, including in a cohort of olaparib-treated ovarian cancer with acquired platinum resistance. Diagnostic tests based on tHRD are expected to broaden the clinical utility of PARP inhibitors. SIGNIFICANCE: A novel but widespread transcriptional mechanism by which homologous recombination deficiency arises independently of BRCA1/2 mutations can be utilized as a companion diagnostic for PARP inhibitors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to investigate the incidence of and risk factors for postoperative pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia after hip fracture surgery. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study from 2005 to 2021. SETTING Asan Medical Center in Seoul, Republic of Korea. PARTICIPANTS A total 1,208 patients aged ≥ 65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery. MEASUREMENTS Postoperative pneumonia was defined as cases with new infiltration on chest x-ray or chest computed tomography (CT) after surgery or confirmed by a pulmonologist's consultation and diagnosis. Aspiration pneumonia was defined as: 1) radiologic findings of hospital-acquired pneumonia on chest radiographs or CT, medical record of aspiration pneumonia confirmed by a pulmonologist's consultation, and history of vomiting or aspiration, or 2) gravity-dependent opacity on chest CT when the history of vomiting or aspiration is ambiguous. Patient demographics, past medical history, pre-injury Koval score, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), blood test results, length of hospital stay, and in-hospital mortality were evaluated. A comparison analysis and binary logistic regression were performed to identify the incidence and risk factors for postoperative pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia. RESULTS Postoperative pneumonia was diagnosed in 47 patients (3.9%), including 20 with aspiration pneumonia (1.7%). In the multivariate analysis, postoperative delirium (odds ratio [OR], 3.42; P < 0.001), American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores ≥ 3 (OR, 2.11; P = 0.021), and CCI (OR, 1.21; P = 0.013) were significant risk factors for postoperative pneumonia. Male sex (OR, 3.01; P = 0.017), postoperative delirium (OR, 3.16; P = 0.014), and preoperative serum albumin levels < 3.5 g/dL (OR, 7.00; P = 0.010) were significant risk factors for aspiration pneumonia. CONCLUSION ASA classification ≥ 3, higher CCI, and postoperative delirium were the risk factors for postoperative pneumonia. Male sex, postoperative delirium, and lower preoperative serum albumin level were the risk factors for aspiration pneumonia. Thus, physicians should pay attention to patients with the risk factors.
