Abstract
11503 Background: Adjuvant imatinib improves recurrence-free survival (RFS) when administered after surgery to selected patients with operable gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). It is uncertain whether overall survival (OS) improves, since imatinib improved OS in only one of the 3 large randomized trials conducted, and in this trial (the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group XVIII/German trial; SSGXVIII/AIO; NCT00116935) the statistical significance for OS remained borderline. The objective of the present analysis was to evaluate long-term OS of patients who participated in the SSGXVIII/AIO trial. Methods: SSGXVIII/AIO is an open-label, randomized (1:1), multicenter phase 3 trial. Four hundred patients who underwent macroscopically complete surgery for GIST with a high estimated risk for recurrence according to the modified National Institutes of Health Consensus Criteria were accrued between February 2004 and September 2008. Imatinib was scheduled to be administered 400 mg/day orally for either 12 months or 36 months after surgery. The patients were scheduled to be followed up for 10 years after study entry. Imaging of the abdomen was carried out periodically. The primary end point was RFS; the secondary objectives included OS and treatment safety. Results: The median follow-up time was 119 months. In the Intention-To-Treat Population 194 RFS events and 96 OS events were recorded. In the 36-month group, 5-year and 10-year RFS was 71.4% and 52.5%, and in the 12-month group, 53.0% and 41.8%, respectively (HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.49-0.87; P = .003). In the 36-month group, the 5-year and 10-year OS rates were 92.0% and 79.0%, and in the 12-month group, 85.5% and 65.3%, respectively (HR 0.55, 95% CI 0.37-0.83; P = .004). In the Efficacy Population, from which 15 patients who did not have GIST in central pathology review and 24 patients who had intra-abdominal metastases removed at surgery were excluded, 10-year OS was 81.6% in the 36-month group and 66.8% in the 12-month group (HR, 0.50, 95% CI 0.32-0.80; P = .003). No new safety signals were detected. Conclusions: About 50% of deaths can be avoided during the first decade of follow-up after surgery with 3-year imatinib treatment as compared to 1-year treatment. Clinical trial information: NCT00116935 .

Abstract
Background Several small studies indicated that the genotype of KIT or platelet-derived growth factor receptor-α (PDGFRA) contributes in part to the level of clinical effectiveness of sunitinib in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients. This study aimed to correlate KIT and PDGFRA mutational status with clinical outcome metrics (progression-free survival [PFS], overall survival [OS], objective response rate [ORR]) in a larger international patient population. Methods This is a non-interventional, retrospective analysis in patients with imatinib-resistant or intolerant GIST who were treated in a worldwide, open-label treatment-use study (Study 1036; NCT00094029) in which sunitinib was administered at a starting dose of 50 mg/day on a 4-week-on, 2-week-off schedule. Molecular status was obtained in local laboratories with tumor samples obtained either pre-imatinib, post-imatinib/pre-sunitinib, or post-sunitinib treatment, and all available data were used in the analyses regardless of collection time. The primary analysis compared PFS in patients with primary KIT exon 11 versus exon 9 mutations (using a 2-sided log-rank test) and secondary analyses compared OS (using the same test) and ORR (using a 2-sided Pearson χ2 test) in the same molecular subgroups. Results Of the 1124 sunitinib-treated patients in the treatment-use study, 230 (20 %) were included in this analysis, and baseline characteristics were similar between the two study populations. Median PFS was 7.1 months. A significantly better PFS was observed in patients with a primary mutation in KIT exon 9 (n = 42) compared to those with a primary mutation in exon 11 (n = 143; hazard ratio = 0.59; 95 % confidence interval, 0.39–0.89; P = 0.011), with median PFS times of 12.3 and 7.0 months, respectively. Similarly, longer OS and higher ORR were observed in patients with a primary KIT mutation in exon 9 versus exon 11. The data available were limited to investigate the effects of additional KIT or PDGFRA mutations on the efficacy of sunitinib treatment. Conclusions This large retrospective analysis confirms the prognostic significance of KIT mutation status in patients with GIST. This analysis also confirms the effectiveness of sunitinib as a post-imatinib therapy, regardless of mutational status. Trial registration NCT01459757.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objectives of this study were to provide sunitinib to patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) who were otherwise unable to obtain it and to collect broad safety and efficacy data from a large population of patients with advanced GIST after imatinib failure. (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT00094029). METHODS Imatinib-resistant/intolerant patients with advanced GIST received sunitinib on an initial dosing schedule of 50 mg daily in 6-week cycles (4 weeks on treatment, 2 weeks off treatment). Tumor assessment frequency was according to local practice, and response was assessed by investigators according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.0. Overall survival (OS) and safety were assessed regularly. Post hoc analyses evaluated different patterns of treatment management. RESULTS At final data cutoff, 1124 patients comprised the intent-to-treat population, and 15% of these patients had a baseline Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≥2. The median treatment duration was 7.0 months. The median time to tumor progression was 8.3 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 8.0-9.4 months), the median OS was 16.6 months (95% CI, 14.9-18.0 months), and 36% of patients were alive at the time of analysis. Patients for whom the initial dosing schedule was modified exhibited longer median OS (23.5 months) than those who were treated strictly according to the initial dosing schedule (11.1 months). The most common treatment-related grade 3 and 4 adverse events were hand-foot syndrome (11%), fatigue (9%), neutropenia (8%), hypertension (7%), and thrombocytopenia (6%). Treatment-related adverse events associated with cardiac function (eg, congestive heart failure and myocardial infarction) were reported at frequencies of ≤1% each. CONCLUSIONS This treatment-use study confirms the long-term safety and efficacy of sunitinib in a large international population of patients with advanced GIST after imatinib failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE S-1, an oral fluoropyrimidine derivative, has previously demonstrated anticancer efficacy in pancreatic cancer (PC), predominantly in Asian populations. This study evaluated the antitumor effect and safety of S-1 in Caucasian patients with metastatic PC. METHODS Chemotherapy-naïve patients received S-1 orally at 30 mg/m(2) twice daily (BID) for 2 weeks, repeated every 3 weeks. Primary endpoint was ORR. Secondary endpoints included PFS, OS and safety assessment. The trial had a Simon's two-stage design with 22 patients evaluable for efficacy in stage 1 and an additional 18 patients in stage 2, if ≥3/22 patients had a confirmed response at the first stage. RESULTS Three out of 27 patients showed PR, however, detection of asymptomatic brain metastases in one of them prevented this study from proceeding to stage 2. The median PFS and OS for all patients was 3.5 and 9.1 months, respectively. The median duration of disease control for patients with SD or PR (n = 17) was 4.3 months. S-1 was well tolerated; fatigue was the most frequent grade 3/4 adverse event. CONCLUSIONS Efficacy data of PFS and OS are at least comparable to gemcitabine, the current standard of care. S-1 is active in Caucasian patients with metastatic PC.

Abstract
Array comparative genomic hybridization studies were performed to further characterize cytogenetic abnormalities found originally by karyotype and fluorescence in situ hybridization in five clinical cases of distal 10q deletions, including several with complex cytogenetic rearrangements and one with a partial male-to-female sex-reversal phenotype. These results have enabled us to narrow the previously proposed critical regions for the craniofacial, urogenital, and neuropsychiatric disease-related manifestations associated with distal 10q deletion syndrome. Furthermore, we propose that haploinsufficiency of the DOCK1 gene may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of the 10q deletion syndrome. We hypothesize that alteration of DOCK1 and/or other genes involved in regulation and signaling of multiple pathways can explain the wide range of phenotypic variability between patients with similar or identical cytogenetic abnormalities.

Abstract
UNLABELLED This study was implemented to compare the value of PET, CT, and dual-modality PET/CT imaging for assessing gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) response to imatinib therapy. METHODS Twenty patients with histologically proven GIST underwent (18)F-FDG PET/CT imaging before and 1, 3, and 6 mo after the start of imatinib therapy. Separate PET and CT datasets, side-by-side PET and CT datasets, and fused PET/CT images were evaluated according to World Health Organization, Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, and European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer criteria for therapy response. Hounsfield units (HU) were assessed on CT images. A mean follow-up period of 381 +/- 134 d served as the standard of reference. RESULTS The numbers of lesions detected in all patients were 135 with PET, 249 with CT, 279 on side-by-side evaluation, and 282 on fused PET/CT images. Tumor response was correctly characterized in 95% of patients after 1 mo and 100% after 3 and 6 mo with PET/CT. PET and CT images viewed side by side were correct in 90% of patients at 1 mo and 100% at 3 and 6 mo. PET accurately diagnosed tumor response in 85% of patients at 1 mo and 100% at 3 and 6 mo. CT was found to be accurate in 44% of patients at 1 mo, 60% at 3 mo, and 57% at 6 mo. HU were found to decrease by at least 25% in 12 of 14 responders after 1 mo. CONCLUSION Tumor response to imatinib should be assessed with a combination of morphologic and functional imaging. Image fusion with combined PET/CT can provide additional information in individual cases when compared with side-by-side PET and CT.

Abstract
Various chemotherapy regimens, combined with recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor(rhG-CSF) or recombinant granulocyte-macrophage CSF (rhGM-CSF) are used in cancer patients to mobilize and collect peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC). In this retrospective study, we evaluated and compared the efficacy of such regimens in 262 patients with different types of malignant diseases. The following chemotherapy regimens were applied: ifosfamide-etoposide-cisplatin or bleomycin (n = 96; mainly patients with testicular cancer); ifosfamide-etoposide plus or minus cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) or vincristine (VCR)(n = 52; mainly patients with lymphoma); cyclophosphamide-anthracycline (n = 53; mainly patients with breast cancer); intermediate to high dose (ID-HD) cyclophosphamide (n = 37; mainly patients with breast or ovarian cancer. or multiple myeloma; and others (n = 24). rhG-CSF or rhGM-CSF, each at an average daily dose of 5 microg/kg body weight, were used in 166 and 96 patients, respectively. The study evaluated and compared the efficacy of these two cytokines. In patients receiving rhG-CSF, CD34+ cells could be collected earlier (median: day 14 versus day 16) and there was a significantly higher white blood cell count (WBC)(median 11,350 versus 5550/microl) and CD34+ cell count (median 88 versus 43/microl) at the start of apheresis, and a significantly higher CD34+ cell yield (median 7.4 x 10(6) versus 4.6 x 10(6)/kg) than in patients who receivedrhGM-CSF. Among the various chemotherapeutic regimens used, each combined with rhG-CSF, ifosfamide-etoposide plus or minus Ara-C or VCR mobilized a significantly higher number of CD34+ cells (median 119/microl) and produced a significantly higher harvest of these cells (median 13 x 10(6)/kg) than cyclophosphamide-anthracycline (median 87/microl and 7 x 10(6)/kg, respectively) or ID-HD cyclophosphamide (median 59/microl and 5 x I 0(6)/kg, respectively). Ifosfamide-etoposide plus or minus Ara-C or VCR was also superior to ifosfamide-etoposide-cisplatin or bleomycin (median 78/microl and 9 x 10(6)/kg, respectively), but at borderline significance. The outcome of PBSC mobilization and collection appeared to be negatively influenced by the number of relapses before the current salvage treatment. These data indicate that mobilization and collection of PBSCstrongly depend on the type of hematopoietic growth factor and chemotherapeutic regimen used. The data further show rhG-CSF is a more effective growth factor than rhGM-CSF and ifosfamide-etoposide-based regimens, particularly ifosfamide-etoposide plus or minus Ara-C or VCR, are highly effective regimens in mobilizing and collecting CD34+ cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the X-linked methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene. METHODS One hundred sixteen patients with classical and atypical RTT were studied for mutations of the MeCP2 gene by using DHPLC and direct sequencing. RESULTS Causative mutations in the MeCP2 gene were identified in 63% of patients, representing a total of 30 different mutations. Mutations were identified in 72% of patients with classical RTT and one third of atypical cases studied (8 of 25). The authors found 17 novel mutations, including a complex gene rearrangement found in one individual involving two deletions and a duplication. The duplication was identical to a region within the 3' untranslated region (UTR), and represents the first report of involvement of the 3' UTR in RTT. The authors also report the identification of MeCP2 mutations in two males; a Klinefelter's male with classic RTT (T158M) and a hemizygous male infant with a Xq27-28 inversion and a novel 32 bp frameshift deletion [1154(del32)]. Studies examining the relationship between mutation type, X-inactivation status, and severity of clinical presentation found significant differences in clinical presentation between different types of mutations. Mutations in the amino-terminus were significantly correlated with a more severe clinical presentation compared with mutations closer to the carboxyl-terminus of MeCP2. Skewed X-inactivation patterns were found in two asymptomatic carriers of MeCP2 mutations and six girls diagnosed with either atypical or classical RTT. CONCLUSION This patient series confirms the high frequency of MeCP2gene mutations causative of RTT in females and provides data concerning the molecular basis for clinical variability (mutation type and position and X-inactivation patterns).

Abstract
Quantitative capillary gel electrophoresis (QCGE) has been developed for the accurate quantitation of a 21-mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide, ISIS 2922, and its degradation products in an intravitreal formulation. The electrokinetic mode of injection employed by CGE necessitates formulation of the external reference standard in a sample matrix similar to that of the drug product and the use of an internal standard for improved accuracy and precision. The analytical method detailed in this paper has demonstrated the necessary accuracy, precision, linearity, range, selectivity and ruggedness for use in routine drug product analysis and stability monitoring of phosphorothioate oligonucleotides.

Abstract
NMR, calorimetric, and optical spectroscopic studies have been performed on a trifluoromethyl-substituted styryl molecular probe bound to vesicles and multilamellar suspensions formed from dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC). In the fluorine NMR spectrum at 35 degrees C there are two partially resolved resonances, but these collapse to an apparently single resonance at temperatures above 60 degrees C. However, a line-shape analysis is not consistent with exchange between two sites on an NMR time scale, and the two resonances are assumed to be due to probe sites in the inner and outer leaflets of the vesicles. Two fluorescence lifetimes, each associated with one of these sites, characterize the decay curves for the molecular probe bound to DMPC vesicles. The shift reagent Eu(FOD)3 and several nitroxide spin labels covalently bound to lipophilic structures strongly attenuate the lower frequency component of the fluorine NMR spectrum and also shift the other resonance to higher frequencies. The effect of two spin labels on the probe fluorine T2 relaxation time has been used to estimate the distance between the spin label unpaired electron and the trifluoromethyl group. The location of the spin label site in the membrane was determined from the effect of the unpaired electron on the lipid 13C linewidths. A model for the location of the probe in the bilayer was developed from the above information and refined using molecular mechanics calculations on a probe-DMPC lipid complex. The long axis of the probe parallels the bilayer normal; the styryl-group portion of the optical chromophore is located slightly below the glycerol backbone, and the remainder of the chromophore extends well into the hydrophobic region of the bilayer. Therefore, the optical properties of the probe should not be significantly influenced by alterations of the membrane surface charge density. Parameters derived from DSC studies in the gel-to-lipid crystal phase transition of DMPC are extremely sensitive to the probe. Even at 0.0001 mol fraction of probe, the transition is substantially broadened, and the delta H for the transition has increased, just as one predicts for the formation of a tight complex described above.

Abstract
Response to chemotherapy and survival was retrospectively analyzed in 28 patients with bulky retroperitoneal and disseminated seminoma treated between 1977 and 1983. The median age was 41 years (range: 23-52). All patients had histological evidence of pure testicular seminoma, however, 14 patients revealed moderate increases of human beta-chorionic gonadotropin levels. Prior radiotherapy had been given to 9/28 (32%) patients. Treatment consisted of at least four courses of simultaneous or sequentially alternating therapy with cisplatin, vinblastine, bleomycin plus/minus adriamycin (PVB +/- A), administration of ifosfamide or combination therapy with ifosfamide/cisplatin (IFS/DDP) or ifosfamide/etoposide (IFS/ETP). Twenty-five of 28 patients (89%) achieved a complete (CR), and 3/28 patients a partial remission. Relapse occurred in 1/8 CR patients after adjuvant postchemotherapeutic irradiation, and in 1/11 patients without any further radiotherapy. So far, 23/28 patients (82%) are free of disease after a median follow-up of 28+ (14+----82+) months. Marked myelosuppression was observed in previously irradiated patients, mainly after PVB +/- A therapy. In two patients, transient nephrotoxicity developed after PVB and IFS/DDP, respectively. After PVB +/- A chemotherapy, three patients revealed polyneuropathy, paralytic subileus and bleomycin-induced pneumonitis, respectively. In conclusion, the present series suggests a high probability of continuous CR in even bulky retroperitoneal and widespread metastatic seminoma. So far, no definite conclusions can be made on the therapeutic superiority of one of the different chemotherapeutic regimens used. However, this preliminary experience suggests that the combination of ifosfamide and etoposide or cisplatin may prove less toxic than sequentially alternating or simultaneous PVB +/- A chemotherapy.
