Abstract
BACKGROUND For advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), combination therapies including a PD-1 inhibitor plus chemotherapy or a PD-1 inhibitor, CTLA-4 inhibitor, and chemotherapy are standard first-line options. However, data directly comparing these regimens are lacking. This study compared the efficacy of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy (CP) against nivolumab plus ipilimumab and chemotherapy (CNI) in a real-world setting. METHODS In this multicenter retrospective study, we compared the efficacy and safety of CP and CNI as first-line therapies in 182 patients with stage IIIB-IV NSCLC. Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS), while secondary outcomes included the response rate (RR) and safety profiles. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Cox proportional hazards models were utilized for data analysis, adjusting for confounding factors such as age, gender, and PD-L1 expression. RESULTS In this study, 160 patients received CP, while 22 received CNI. The CP group was associated with significantly better PFS than the CNI group (median 11.7 vs. 6.6 months, HR 0.56, p = 0.03). This PFS advantage persisted after propensity score matching to adjust for imbalances. No significant OS differences were observed. Grade 3-4 adverse events occurred comparably, but immune-related adverse events were numerically more frequent in the CNI group. CONCLUSIONS In real-world practice, CP demonstrated superior PFS compared with CNI. These findings can inform treatment selection in advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (aHCC) have a poor prognosis and high mortality. Nivolumab monotherapy demonstrated clinical benefit with an acceptable safety profile in patients with aHCC in the CheckMate 040 study. Five-year follow-up of the sorafenib-naive and sorafenib-experienced groups of CheckMate 040 is presented here. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients received nivolumab monotherapy at dose levels of 0.1-10.0 mg/kg (dose-escalation phase) or 3 mg/kg (dose-expansion phase) every 2 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary endpoints were safety and tolerability (dose escalation), and objective response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (BICR) and by investigator as per RECIST version 1.1 (dose expansion). RESULTS Eighty sorafenib-naive and 154 sorafenib-experienced patients were treated. Minimum follow-up in both groups was 60 months. ORR as per BICR was 20% [95% confidence interval (CI) 12% to 30%] and 14% (95% CI 9% to 21%) in the sorafenib-naive and sorafenib-experienced groups, respectively. Responses occurred regardless of HCC etiology or baseline tumor cell programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels. Median overall survival (OS) was 26.6 months (95% CI 16.6-30.6 months) and 15.1 months (95% CI 13.0-18.2 months) in sorafenib-naive and sorafenib-experienced patients, respectively. The 3-year OS rates were 28% in the sorafenib-naive and 20% in the sorafenib-experienced groups; 5-year OS rates were 14% and 12%, respectively. No new safety signals were identified; grade 3/4 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 33% and 21% of patients in the sorafenib-naive and sorafenib-experienced groups, respectively. Biomarker analyses showed that baseline PD-L1 expression ≥1% was associated with higher ORR and longer OS compared with PD-L1 <1%. In the sorafenib-naive group, patients with OS ≥3 years exhibited higher baseline CD8 T-cell density compared with those with OS <1 year. CONCLUSION With 5 years of follow-up, nivolumab monotherapy continued to provide durable clinical benefit with manageable safety in sorafenib-naive and sorafenib-experienced patients with aHCC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the phase III HIMALAYA study (NCT03298451) in unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC), STRIDE (Single Tremelimumab Regular Interval Durvalumab) significantly improved overall survival (OS) versus sorafenib; durvalumab monotherapy was noninferior to sorafenib for OS. Results reported herein are from a 4-year updated OS analysis of HIMALAYA. PATIENTS AND METHODS Participants with uHCC and no previous systemic treatment were randomized to STRIDE (n = 393), durvalumab (n = 389), or sorafenib (n = 389). The updated data cut-off was 23 January 2023. OS and serious adverse events (AEs) were assessed. Additionally, baseline characteristics and subsequent therapies were analyzed in long-term survivors (≥36 months beyond randomization). RESULTS For STRIDE, durvalumab, and sorafenib, median [95% confidence interval (CI)] follow-up was 49.12 months (46.95-50.17 months), 48.46 months (46.82-49.81 months), and 47.31 months (45.08-49.15 months), respectively. OS hazard ratio (95% CI) for STRIDE versus sorafenib was 0.78 (0.67-0.92). The 36-month OS rate for STRIDE was 30.7% versus 19.8% for sorafenib. The 48-month OS rate remained higher for STRIDE at 25.2%, versus 15.1% for sorafenib. The long-term OS benefit of STRIDE was observed across clinically relevant subgroups and was further improved in participants who achieved disease control. Long-term survivors with STRIDE (n = 103) included participants across clinically relevant subgroups, and 57.3% (59/103) had no reported subsequent anticancer therapy. No new serious treatment-related AEs occurred with STRIDE from the primary analysis (17.5%; 68/388). Durvalumab maintained OS noninferiority to sorafenib and no late-onset safety signals were identified. CONCLUSIONS These data represent the longest follow-up to date in phase III studies in uHCC. The unprecedented 3- and 4-year OS rates reinforce the sustained long-term OS benefit of STRIDE versus sorafenib. STRIDE maintained a tolerable yet differentiated safety profile from other current uHCC therapies. Results continue to support the long-term benefits of STRIDE in a diverse population, reflective of uHCC globally.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of adding atezolizumab to the platinum doublet regimen for extensive disease small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC) remains marginally limited. METHODS We retrospectively assessed the real-world efficacy and safety of atezolizumab in addition to carboplatin and etoposide (EP + A), versus carboplatin and etoposide (EP) alone in previously untreated ED-SCLC patients. RESULTS From a total of 99 patients, 46 were assigned to the EP + A group, and 53 to the EP group. No significant difference was observed in progression-free survival between the groups. However, the overall survival (OS) was significantly longer in the EP + A group (20.8 vs 12.1 months; HR: 0.52; p = 0.0127). Patients older than 70 years, male, with performance status 0-1, without liver metastasis, and low levels of C-reactive protein and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, experienced longer OS in the EP + A group compared to the EP group. CONCLUSION The addition of atezolizumab to the platinum doublet regimen significantly extended OS in ED-SCLC patients, particularly among certain subgroups, suggesting its potential value in personalized treatment strategies. Further investigation is warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to assess the real-world impact of advancements in first-line systemic therapies for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), focusing on the role of driver gene mutations and programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression levels. METHODS Conducted across eight medical facilities in Japan, this multicenter, retrospective observational research included 863 patients diagnosed with NSCLC and treated between January 2015 and December 2022. The patients were categorized based on the type of systemic therapy received: cytotoxic agents, molecular targeting agents, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and combination therapies. Comprehensive molecular and immunohistochemical analyses were conducted, and statistical evaluations were performed. RESULTS The median overall survival (OS) shows significant variations among treatment groups, with targeted therapies demonstrating the longest OS. This study also revealed that high PD-L1 expression was common in the group treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Multivariate analysis was used to identify the type of anticancer drug and the expression of PD-L1 at diagnosis as the impactful variables affecting 5-year OS. CONCLUSIONS This study underscores the efficacy of targeted therapies and the critical role of comprehensive molecular diagnostics and PD-L1 expression in affecting OS in NSCLC patients, advocating for their integration into routine clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Personalized treatment for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has advanced rapidly, and elucidating the genetic changes that trigger this disease is crucial for appropriate treatment selection. Both slow-pull and aspiration methods of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) are accepted methods for collecting samples suitable for next-generation sequencing (NGS) to examine driver gene mutations and translocations in NSCLC. Here, we aimed to determine which of these two methods is superior for obtaining higher-quality samples from patients with NSCLC. METHODS Seventy-one patients diagnosed with NSCLC via EBUS-TBNA using the slow-pull or aspiration (20-mL negative pressure) methods between July 2019 and September 2022 were included. A total of 203 tissue samples from the 71 patients were fixed in formalin, embedded in paraffin, and mounted on slides. The presence of tissue cores, degree of blood contamination, and number of tumor cells were compared between the groups. The success rate of NGS, using Oncomine Dx Target Test Multi-CDx, was also compared between the groups. RESULTS The slow-pull method was associated with a higher yield of tissue cores, lower degree of blood contamination, and higher number of tumor cells than the aspiration method. The success rate of the NGS was also significantly higher for the slow-pull group (95%) than for the aspiration group (68%). CONCLUSION Overall, these findings suggest that the slow-pull method is a superior technique for EBUS-TBNA to obtain high-quality tissue samples for NGS. The slow-pull method may contribute to the identification of driver gene mutations and translocations and facilitate personalized treatment of NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Among patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), few studies have investigated the clinical impact of anti-fibrotic treatment (AFT) with and without comorbidities. The aim of the study was to determine whether Charlson Comorbidity Index score (CCIS) can predict the efficacy of AFT in patients with IPF. METHODS We retrospectively assessed data extracted from the medical records of IPF patients who received anti-fibrotic agents between 2009 and 2019. The collected data included age, sex, CCIS, pulmonary function test, high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) pattern, gender/age/physiology (GAP) score, and 3-year IPF-related events defined as the first acute exacerbation or death within 3 years after starting AFT. RESULTS We assessed 130 patients (median age, 74 years) who received nintedanib (n = 70) or pirfenidone (n = 60). Median duration of AFT was 425 days. Patients were categorized into high (≥ 3 points) and low (≤ 2 points) CCIS groups. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of age, sex, duration of AFT, GAP score, or incidence of usual interstitial pneumonia pattern on HRCT except percentage predicted diffusion capacity of lung for carbon monoxide. Also, significant difference was not seen between the groups for 3-year IPF-related events (P = 0.75). Especially, in the low CCIS group but not the high CCIS group, the longer duration of AFT had better disease outcome. CONCLUSION In the present study, we could not show any relation between CCIS and IPF disease outcomes in patients undergoing AFT, though the longer duration of AFT might be beneficial for IPF outcomes among patients with low CCIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Based on the results of the PACIFIC trial, maintenance with durvalumab has emerged as the standard treatment following concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with unresectable locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). However, adverse events attributed to durvalumab, especially lung injuries, including immune-related adverse events, and radiation pneumonitis, are concerning. This study retrospectively investigated the factors related to lung injury in patients receiving the PACIFIC regimen. METHODS Patients with unresectable locally advanced NSCLC who received durvalumab maintenance therapy following concurrent chemoradiotherapy at Yokohama City University Medical Centre between July 2018 and March 2022 were included. Clinical data, volume of normal lung receiving 20 or 5 Gy or more (V20 or V5), planning target volume (PTV), and relative lung parenchyma volume in emphysematous lung receiving 20 or 5 Gy or more (RLPV20 or 5; V20 or V5/100-percentage of low-attenuation volume) were evaluated. RESULTS Performance status (PS), V20, V5, PTV, RLPV20, and RLPV5 were significantly higher in the lung injury group in the univariate analysis. Furthermore, RLPV20 was the most significant factor in the lung injury group in the multivariate analysis comprising PS, PTV, V20, and RLPV20. CONCLUSION RLPV20 and RLPV5 are useful in estimating lung inflammation. RLPV20 could be considered the most reliable risk factor for maintenance therapy with durvalumab following concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with unresectable locally advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Acute exacerbation (AE) of interstitial pneumonia (IP) shows poor prognosis, due to the typical histological pattern of diffuse alveolar damage superimposed upon lung fibrosis. The previous reports comparing clinical features between AE of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) and those of IPs with known etiology are limited. We retrospectively compared clinical parameters including age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index score (CCIS), blood biomarkers at diagnosis of AE, treatment, and 3-month mortality between patients with AE of IIPs and collagen vascular disease-associated interstitial pneumonia (CVD-IP). We assessed 85 patients, comprising 66 patients with AE of IIPs (78%) and 19 patients with AE of CVD-IP (22%). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression selected CCIS (hazard ratio, 1.281; 95% confidence interval, 1.055-1.556; P = 0.012) and log serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (hazard ratio, 6.267; 95% confidence interval, 2.172-18.085; P < 0.001) as significant predictors of 3-month mortality among these patients. Also, the adjusted survival curves using sex, CCIS, and serum LDH showed no significant differences between these two groups. In conclusion, among AE patients, CCIS and serum LDH level may be more important prognostic factors for 3-month mortality rather than two classification of IP subtypes: IIPs and CVD-IP.

Abstract
The trends and prevalence of antimicrobial susceptibility of pathogens vary by country, region, and time. Long-term regular surveillance is required to investigate trends in the antimicrobial resistance of various isolated bacterial pathogens. We report the results of a nationwide surveillance on the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacterial respiratory pathogens in Japan conducted by the Japanese Society of Chemotherapy, the Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases, and the Japanese Society for Clinical Microbiology. The isolates were collected from clinical specimens obtained from adult patients who visited a collaborating medical facility between June 2019 and December 2020 and were diagnosed with respiratory tract infections by a physician. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed in a centralized laboratory according to the methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute. Susceptibility testing was performed for 932 strains (201 Staphylococcus aureus, 158 Streptococcus pneumoniae, 6 S. pyogenes, 136 Haemophilus influenzae, 127 Moraxella catarrhalis, 141 Klebsiella pneumoniae, and 163 Pseudomonas aeruginosa) collected from 32 facilities in Japan. The proportions of methicillin-resistant S. aureus and penicillin-resistant S. pneumoniae were 35.3% and 0%, respectively. In H. influenzae, 16.2% and 16.9% were β-lactamase-producing ampicillin resistant and β-lactamase-negative ampicillin resistant, respectively. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing K. pneumoniae accounted for 5.0% of all K. pneumoniae infections. Carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae and multi-drug-resistant P. aeruginosa with metallo-β-lactamase were not detected in this study. This surveillance will be a useful reference for treating respiratory infections in Japan and will provide evidence to enhance the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents.

Abstract
Primary tracheal small-cell carcinoma is rare, and is often treated using small-cell lung cancer guidelines given that no standard treatment has been established for it. We report a patient in whom nodules appeared in the trachea and left main bronchus 11 months after surgery for pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; a biopsy revealed small-cell carcinoma. Given the absence of malignant lesions elsewhere in the body, the lesions were diagnosed as primary tracheal small-cell carcinoma. Respiratory failure progressed rapidly owing to airway stenosis caused by the growing lesion, and the patient required nasal high-flow therapy. However, the lesions shrank a few days after commencing first-line chemotherapy, and his respiratory failure resolved. Accelerated hyperfractionated radiotherapy was administered in conjunction with the third course of chemotherapy, and the patient ultimately achieved a complete response. Although the lesions were initially suspected of being postoperative recurrence of pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma, the fact that the biopsy revealed them to be primary tracheal small-cell carcinoma indicates that intra-airway nodules that appear after lung cancer surgery may possibly be primary tracheal tumors.

Abstract
Thymic neuroendocrine tumors associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia are only defined as carcinoid and are not associated with large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC). We report the case of a multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 patient with atypical carcinoid tumors with elevated mitotic counts (AC-h), an intermediate condition between carcinoid and LCNEC. A 27-year-old man underwent surgery for an anterior mediastinal mass and was diagnosed with thymic LCNEC. Fifteen years later, a mass appeared at the same site, which was determined to be a postoperative recurrence based on the pathological results of a needle biopsy and the clinical course. The patient's disease remained stable for 10 months on anti-programmed death-ligand 1 antibody and platinum-containing chemotherapy. The needle biopsy specimen was submitted for next-generation sequencing, which revealed a MEN1 gene mutation, and after further examination, a diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 was made. A re-examination of the surgical specimen from 15 years prior showed that it corresponded to AC-h. Although thymic AC-h is classified as thymic LCNEC according to the current definition, our data suggests that a search for multiple endocrine neoplasia is warranted in such patients.

Abstract
Immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy has been attracting attention as a new cancer treatment and is likely to be widely used in combination with radiotherapy. Therefore, examination of the effects of X-ray irradiation on sentinel lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels, which are involved in antigen presentation, is important for therapy. The hindlimbs of mice were irradiated with X-rays (total radiation doses: 2, 10, and 30 Gy), and X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging was performed using 15-nm or 2-nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as contrast agents on days 7, 14, and 28 after irradiation to evaluate the diameter of the collecting lymph vessels and lymph flow within the irradiated area. X-ray CT imaging data using 15-nm AuNPs on day 28 after irradiation showed that the diameter of the collecting lymph vessels was significantly larger in all irradiated groups compared to the control group (p ≤ 0.01). CT imaging with 2-nm AuNPs showed that lymphatic drainage was significantly reduced in the lymph nodes irradiated with 10 Gy and 30 Gy compared to the lymph nodes irradiated with 2 Gy (p ≤ 0.05). Additionally, immunohistochemical analyses were conducted to evaluate the area density and morphology of high endothelial venules (HEVs) in the lymph nodes, which are important vessels for naive T cells to enter the lymph nodes. The expression level of MECA-79, which specifically localized to HEVs, was significantly decreased in the 10 Gy and 30 Gy irradiation groups compared to the control group (p ≤ 0.05). There was a significant decrease in normal HEV morphology (p ≤ 0.05) and a significant increase in abnormal HEV morphology (p ≤ 0.05) in all irradiated groups. These results also showed that X-ray irradiation induced a time- and radiation dose-dependent increase in the diameter of the collecting lymph vessels, stagnation of intralymphatic lymph flow, and a reduction in the area density of HEVs and their abnormal morphology, demonstrating that X-ray irradiation affected the immune responses. Therefore, these findings suggest that X-ray irradiation to lymph nodes may impair the opportunity for antigen presentation in the lymph nodes, which is the key to cancer immunity, and that for this reason, it is important to carefully plan irradiation of sentinel lymph nodes and develop treatment strategies according to future treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing body of evidence suggests that non-viral hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) might benefit less from immunotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We carried out a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from consecutive patients with non-viral advanced HCC, treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, lenvatinib, or sorafenib, in 36 centers in 4 countries (Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, and UK). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus lenvatinib. Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus lenvatinib, and OS and PFS with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus sorafenib. For the primary and secondary endpoints, we carried out the analysis on the whole population first, and then we divided the cohort into two groups: non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)/non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) population and non-NAFLD/NASH population. RESULTS One hundred and ninety patients received atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, 569 patients received lenvatinib, and 210 patients received sorafenib. In the whole population, multivariate analysis showed that treatment with lenvatinib was associated with a longer OS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.65; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.44-0.95; P = 0.0268] and PFS (HR 0.67; 95% CI 0.51-0.86; P = 0.002) compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. In the NAFLD/NASH population, multivariate analysis confirmed that lenvatinib treatment was associated with a longer OS (HR 0.46; 95% CI 0.26-0.84; P = 0.0110) and PFS (HR 0.55; 95% CI 0.38-0.82; P = 0.031) compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. In the subgroup of non-NAFLD/NASH patients, no difference in OS or PFS was observed between patients treated with lenvatinib and those treated with atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. All these results were confirmed following propensity score matching analysis. By comparing patients receiving atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus sorafenib, no statistically significant difference in survival was observed. CONCLUSIONS The present analysis conducted on a large number of advanced non-viral HCC patients showed for the first time that treatment with lenvatinib is associated with a significant survival benefit compared to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab, in particular in patients with NAFLD/NASH-related HCC.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of liquid biopsy in detecting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations at diagnosis, disease progression, and intermediate stages. Methods This prospective, multicenter, observational study included 30 patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with afatinib, harboring a major EGFR mutation confirmed by tumor tissue biopsy. We collected blood samples for liquid biopsy at diagnosis, intermediate stage, and progressive disease. Tissue and liquid biopsies were examined using Cobas ® EGFR Mutation Test v2. Results Liquid biopsy detected EGFR mutations in 63.6% of the patients at diagnosis. The presence of metastasis in the extrathoracic, brain, and adrenal glands correlated positively with the detection of EGFR mutations. Patients with positive EGFR mutations at diagnosis had significantly shorter overall and progression-free survival than patients with negative EGFR mutations. Four of the 18 patients (22.2%) who reached progressive disease had positive EGFR T790M mutations. Three of 10 patients (30.0%) with progressive disease were positive and negative for T790M using tumor re-biopsy and liquid biopsy, respectively. The results of EGFR mutation by tissue re-biopsy were the same as those of liquid biopsy in the three patients who were positive for significant EGFR mutations but negative for the T790M mutation using liquid biopsy at progressing disease. Only two patients were positive for major EGFR mutations at intermediate levels. Conclusions Liquid biopsy can be a prognostic factor in EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatments at diagnosis. Tumor re-biopsy can be omitted in patients with positive EGFR mutations by liquid biopsy at PD.

Abstract
Background and objective
A cytokine storm is caused by inflammatory cells, including pro-inflammatory macrophage phenotype (M1), and play a critical role in the pathogenesis of COVID-19, in which diffuse alveolar damage occurs in the lungs due to oxidative stress exposure. Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is a stress-induced protein produced by the anti-inflammatory / anti-oxidative macrophage phenotype (M2), which also produces soluble CD163 (sCD163). In our study, we investigated and determined that serum HO-1 can be a predictive biomarker for assessing both the severity and the outcome of COVID-19 patients.
Method
The serum concentrations of HO-1 and sCD163 of COVID-19 patients were measured on admission. The relationship between these biomarkers and other clinical parameters and outcomes were evaluated.
Results
Sixty-four COVID-19 patients (11 mild, 38 moderate, and 15 severe cases) were assessed. The serum HO-1 tended to increase (11.0 ng/mL vs. 24.3 ng/mL vs. 59.6 ng/mL with severity). Serum HO-1 correlated with serum lactate dehydrogenase (R = 0.422), C-reactive protein (R = 0.463), and the ground glass opacity (GGO) and consolidation score (R = 0.625) of chest computed tomography. The serum HO-1 showed a better area under the curve (AUC) for predicting ICU admission than the serum sCD163 (HO-1; 0.816 and sCD163; 0.743). In addition, composite parameters including serum HO-1 and the GGO and consolidation score showed a higher AUC for predicting ICU admission than the AUC of a single parameter.
Conclusion
Clinically, serum HO-1, reflecting the activation of M2, could be a very useful marker for evaluating disease severity and predicting prognoses for COVID-19 patients. In addition, controlling activated M2 might be a preventative COVID-19 therapeutic target.

Abstract
Background Clinically measurable factors affecting the progression‐free survival (PFS) of patients receiving osimertinib as first‐line therapy for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation‐positive advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have not yet been established. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 61 patients treated with osimertinib as primary therapy for EGFR mutation‐positive advanced NSCLC at Yokohama City University Medical Center between August 2018 and March 2022. Our objective was to identify the independent predictors of PFS. Results The median age of participants was 74 years. Overall, 73.8% had good (0–1) Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (PS), and 98.4% had histology of adenocarcinoma. The EGFR mutation was exon19 deletion in 52.5% and exon21 L858R in 44.3% of patients. Programmed death‐ligand 1 tumor proportion score >50% was observed in 21.3% and liver metastasis in 9.9% of patients. Median PFS was 19.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 10.6–31.6), and overall survival was not reached. The objective response rate was 68.9%, and disease control rate was 93.4%. Multivariate analysis showed that poor PS (2–4) negatively impacted PFS (hazard ratio, 3.79; 95% CI: 1.46–9.87; p = 0.006). Median PFS in the good PS and poor PS groups was 20.4 months (95% CI: 12.4‐not evaluable) and 7.2 months (95% CI: 7.2–19.5), respectively. Interstitial lung disease of all grades and grade 3 was observed as an adverse event in 6.6 and 4.9% of patients, respectively. Conclusion Poor PS was associated with poor prognosis in patients with EGFR mutation‐positive advanced NSCLC treated with osimertinib as first‐line therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Pulmonary enteric adeno-carcinoma (PEAC) is a rare type of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), for which no established standard treatment exists. Combination therapy with the anti-programmed cell death protein 1 antibody pembrolizumab and platinum-containing chemotherapy is the standard treatment for NSCLC patients, but its effectiveness in PEAC is uncertain. CASE REPORT We present a 68-year-old man with chemotherapy-naïve advanced PEAC who responded to a combination of pembrolizumab and platinum-containing chemotherapy. CONCLUSION The number of PEAC cases is small, and no clinical trials have been conducted to determine an optimal chemotherapy regimen. In this case, we showed that pembrolizumab combined with platinum-containing chemotherapy might effectively treat PEAC.

Abstract
Background Pembrolizumab alone or in combination with chemotherapy is a standard treatment for patients with non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with high programmed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) expression. However, no study has compared the efficacies of these two regimens. Therefore, we aimed to compare the efficacy of pembrolizumab alone and in combination with chemotherapy in NSCLC patients with high PD‐L1 expression. Methods We conducted a multicenter retrospective trial involving patients with diagnosed unresectable or recurrent NSCLCs who had received pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in the first‐line setting. Patients were divided into monotherapy and combination therapy groups. The progression‐free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and response rate (RR) were analyzed and compared between the groups. Clinical characteristics of patients were analyzed to assess their possible relationship with treatment outcomes. Results We enrolled 96 patients from five hospitals. Of these, 47 and 49 patients received monotherapy and combination therapy, respectively. The median PFS was 343 and 328 days in the monotherapy and combination therapy groups, respectively (hazard ratio 1.003, p = 0.99). No statistically significant differences were observed in the OS and RR between the two groups. However, in patients with metastases to the liver, lung, adrenal glands, bone, or lymph nodes, the PFS was longer in the monotherapy group than in the combination therapy group. Conclusion Although the PFS, OS, and RR were not significantly different between patients treated with pembrolizumab alone and or with pembrolizumab in combination with chemotherapy, patients with NSCLC having metastases to specific sites may benefit more from monotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment remains a big challenge in the field of oncology. The liver disease (viral or not viral) underlying HCC turned out to be crucial in determining the biologic behavior of the tumor, including its response to treatment. The aim of this analysis was to investigate the role of the etiology of the underlying liver disease in survival outcomes. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a multicenter retrospective study on a large cohort of patients treated with lenvatinib as first-line therapy for advanced HCC from both Eastern and Western institutions. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS Among the 1232 lenvatinib-treated HCC patients, 453 (36.8%) were hepatitis C virus positive, 268 hepatitis B virus positive (21.8%), 236 nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) correlate (19.2%) and 275 had other etiologies (22.3%). The median progression-free survival (mPFS) was 6.2 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 5.9-6.7 months] and the median overall survival (mOS) was 15.8 months (95% CI 14.9-17.2 months). In the univariate analysis for OS NASH-HCC was associated with longer mOS [22.2 versus 15.1 months; hazard ratio (HR) 0.69; 95% CI 0.56-0.85; P = 0.0006]. In the univariate analysis for PFS NASH-HCC was associated with longer mPFS (7.5 versus 6.5 months; HR 0.84; 95% CI 0.71-0.99; P = 0.0436). The multivariate analysis confirmed NASH-HCC (HR 0.64; 95% CI 0.48-0.86; P = 0.0028) as an independent prognostic factor for OS, along with albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) grade, extrahepatic spread, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, portal vein thrombosis, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status and alpha-fetoprotein. An interaction test was performed between sorafenib and lenvatinib cohorts and the results highlighted the positive predictive role of NASH in favor of the lenvatinib arm (P = 0.0047). CONCLUSION NASH has been identified as an independent prognostic factor in a large cohort of patients with advanced HCC treated with lenvatinib, thereby suggesting the role of the etiology in the selection of patients for tyrosine kinase treatment. If validated, this result could provide new insights useful to improve the management of these patients.

Abstract
A 58-year-old man was diagnosed with lung adenocarcinoma with a tumor proportion score of 10%. After six cycles of second-line chemotherapy with nivolumab, he achieved a complete response (CR) but developed uveitis and sensorineural hearing disorder, which were consistent with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH)-like syndrome. Simultaneously, pituitary adrenocortical insufficiency was identified. Nivolumab discontinuation and systemic corticosteroid administration resolved these immune-related adverse events (irAEs). The patient has maintained a CR without any chemotherapy for approximately two years. We herein report a patient with a long-term progression-free survival despite chemotherapy discontinuation due to irAEs, including VKH-like syndrome, which were appropriately managed.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels as wearable devices meet the basic demands of mechanical flexibility and smart sensing. However, achieving anti-freeze property in conductive hydrogels is still challengeable. Here, a novel anti-freezing system based on ice structuring proteins and CaCl2 was introduced to enable a conductive hydrogel with low-temperature adaptability. Both formation of ice nuclei and ice growth of the hydrogel at sub-zero temperature could be inhibited. Supported by the anti-freeze system, the hydrogel revealed good flexibility (890% at -20 °C), recovery and conductivity (0.50 S/m at -20 °C) at both room temperature and sub-zero temperature. The low-temperature adaptability enabled the hydrogel to be used as strain and temperature sensors at both room temperature and sub-zero temperature. The anti-freeze system in this work is expected to open up a new avenue to promote the conductive hydrogel with low-temperature adaptability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is advancing, but a robust prediction model for survival after resection is not available. The aim of this study was to propose a prognostic grading system for resection of HCC. METHODS This was a retrospective, multicentre study of patients who underwent first resection of HCC with curative intent between 2000 and 2007. Patients were divided randomly by a cross-validation method into training and validation sets. Prognostic factors were identified using a Cox proportional hazards model. The predictive model was built by decision-tree analysis to define the resection grades, and subsequently validated. RESULTS A total of 16 931 patients from 795 hospitals were included. In the training set (8465 patients), four surgical grades were classified based on prognosis: grade A1 (1236 patients, 14.6 per cent; single tumour 3 cm or smaller and anatomical R0 resection); grade A2 (3614, 42.7 per cent; single tumour larger than 3 cm, or non-anatomical R0 resection); grade B (2277, 26.9 per cent; multiple tumours, or vascular invasion, and R0 resection); and grade C (1338, 15.8 per cent; multiple tumours with vascular invasion and R0 resection, or R1 resection). Five-year survival rates were 73.9 per cent (hazard ratio (HR) 1.00), 64.7 per cent (HR 1.51, 95 per cent c.i. 1.29 to 1.78), 50.6 per cent (HR 2.53, 2.15 to 2.98), and 34.8 per cent (HR 4.60, 3.90 to 5.42) for grades A1, A2, B, and C respectively. In the validation set (8466 patients), the grades had equivalent reproducibility for both overall and recurrence-free survival (all P < 0.001). CONCLUSION This grade is used to predict prognosis of patients undergoing resection of HCC.

Abstract
A 67-year-old Asian woman presented with dyspnoea on exertion and wheezing. She had been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and bronchial asthma at the ages of 42 and 50 years, respectively. Her SLE was stable with the use of 1 mg of daily prednisolone for more than 5 years. To control her bronchial asthma a combination of a low-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and long-acting β2-agonist (LABA) (125/5 µg of fluticasone/formoterol), 10 mg of montelukast and 400 mg of theophylline were prescribed. She had a smoking history of 28 pack-years and quit smoking at the age of 45 years. Pulmonary lymphoproliferative diseases are often associated with collagen diseases. In addition to treatment of the primary disease, additional treatments may be considered depending on the pathology presented in the case.https://bit.ly/3vKqsls

Abstract
Objective: Although Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) lung disease has been shown to be associated with lung cancer and hematologic malignancies, there have been few studies of its relationships with other types of cancer. The aim of this study was to assess the effect that coexisting advanced extrapulmonary solid tumors have on the progression of MAC lung disease. Methods: This was a retrospective study of patients diagnosed with MAC lung disease, on the basis of the American Thoracic Society (ATS) criteria, between October of 2005 and March of 2019. The patients were divided into three groups: those with advanced-stage cancer (A-SC group); those with early-stage cancer (E-SC group); and those without cancer (control group). Progression of MAC lung disease was defined as exacerbation seen on imaging. Patient characteristics and the time to progression were compared among the three groups. Results: A total of 286 patients met the ATS diagnostic criteria for MAC lung disease, and 128 of those were excluded. Of the remaining 158 patients, 20 (7.0%) were in the A-SC group, 36 (12.6%) were in the E-SC group, and 102 (35.7%) were in the control group. The median time to progression in the A-SC, E-SC, and control groups was 432, 3,595, and 2,829 days, respectively (p < 0.01). A proportional hazards model showed that the significant predictors of MAC lung disease progression were advanced-stage cancer (hazard ratio [HR] = 6.096; 95% CI: 2.688-13.826; p < 0.01), cavitary lesions (HR = 2.750; 95% CI: 1.306-5.791; p < 0.01), and a high Nodule-Infiltration-Cavity-Ectasis score (HR = 1.046; 95% CI: 1.004-1.091; p = 0.033). Conclusions: A coexisting advanced extrapulmonary solid tumor could hasten the progression of MAC lung disease.

Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a standard treatment for advanced lung cancer, although it remains important to identify biomarkers that can accurately predict treatment response. Immune checkpoint inhibitors enhance the antitumor T‐cell response, and interferon‐γ plays an important role in this process. Therefore, this study evaluated whether the number of interferon‐γ‐releasing peripheral T cells after phytohemagglutinin stimulation in the interferon‐γ release assay might act as a biomarker for the response of non‐small cell lung cancer to immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. Methods Data were retrospectively collected regarding 74 patients with non‐small cell lung cancer who had received immune checkpoint inhibitors. Pretreatment screening tests had been performed using the T‐SPOT.TB assay, which quantifies the number of interferon‐γ‐releasing T cells (as immunospots) in response to phytohemagglutinin and tuberculosis‐specific antigen stimulation. Clinical factors and the number of spots in the T‐SPOT fields were evaluated for associations with patient outcomes. The median number of spots was used to categorize patients as having high or low values, and the two groups were compared. Results Relative to patients with a low ratio, patients with a high ratio of phytohemagglutinin/tuberculosis‐specific antigen spots (i.e. more responsive T cells) had significantly better progression‐free survival after immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment. When we only considered patients with negative T‐SPOT results, a high number of phytohemagglutinin‐stimulated spots corresponded to significantly longer progression‐free survival. Conclusion The T‐SPOT.TB assay can be used to quantify the number of immunospots in response to antigen stimulation, which may predict the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors in patients with non‐small cell lung cancer.

Abstract
Background: Our goal was to organize the data from randomized controlled trials that evaluated first-line chemotherapy for chemo-naïve extensive disease small-cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC). Methods: The protocol following PRISMA methodology was submitted as PROSPERO 154049. We included individually randomized trials comparing two or more chemotherapy regimens as the first-line treatment for chemo-naïve ED-SCLC regardless of the age, sex, performance status, co-morbidities, and organ functions written in the English language since 2000. Molecular targeted agents and immune checkpoint inhibitors were considered chemotherapy along with cytotoxic medications. We pooled the logarithm of hazard ratio (HR) and its standard error using the frequentist weighted least squares approach random-model network meta-analysis. Results: A total of 46 eligible trials that involved 11,987 patients were included. The primary endpoint, HR of overall survival (OS, HRos) of the selected comparisons was as follows: carboplatin+amrubicin (HRos 0.56, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.33–0.96), carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab (HRos 0.70, 95% CI 0.53–0.92), and carboplatin+irinotecan (HRos 0.73, 95% CI 0.58–0.91) were compared with carboplatin+etoposide. The carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab regimen was compared with carboplatin+irinotecan (HRos 0.97, 95% CI 0.68–1.37) and cisplatin+irinotecan regimen (HRos 0.87, 95% CI 0.58–1.31). “Selective carboplatin or cisplatin (CBDCA/CDDP)”+etoposide+durvalumab was compared with CBDCA/CDDP+etoposide (HRos 0.73, 95% CI 0.59–0.91). Platinum+etoposide+durvalumab was compared with platinum+irinotecan (HRos 0.88, 95% CI 0.67–1.15). Cumulative meta-analysis suggested that platinum+irinotecan was associated with better OS than platinum+etoposide as of 2010 through 40 out of 46 trials in our review that used platinum+etoposide as a reference regimen. Conclusion: Patients treated with carboplatin+amrubicin, carboplatin+etoposide+atezolizumab, CBDCA/CDDP+etoposide+durvalumab, and platinum+irinotecan showed better HRos than those treated with platinum+etoposide, one of the standard regimens.

Abstract
Although increasing evidence demonstrates the association between intestinal dysbiosis and pancreatic diseases such as chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer, it remains largely unknown whether intestinal dysbiosis is involved in the immunopathogenesis of autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP). Recently, we found that intestinal dysbiosis mediates experimental AIP via the activation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), which can produce interferon (IFN)-α and interleukin (IL)-33. However, candidate intestinal bacteria, which promote the development of AIP, have not been identified. Fecal samples were obtained from type 1 AIP patients before and after prednisolone (PSL) treatment and subjected to 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing to evaluate the composition of intestinal bacteria. Induction of remission by PSL was associated with the complete disappearance of Klebsiella species from feces in two of the three analyzed patients with type 1 AIP. To assess the pathogenicity of Klebsiella species, mild experimental AIP was induced in MRL/MpJ mice by repeated injections of 10 μg of polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I:C)], in combination with oral administration of heat-killed Klebsiella pneumoniae. The AIP pathology score was significantly higher in MRL/MpJ mice that received both oral administration of heat-killed K. pneumoniae and intraperitoneal injections of poly(I:C) than in those administered either agent alone. Pancreatic accumulation of pDCs capable of producing large amounts of IFN-α and IL-33 was also significantly higher in mice that received both treatments. These data suggest that intestinal colonization by K. pneumoniae may play an intensifying role in the development of type 1 AIP.
