Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Mostly, the removal rate of glioblastoma has been discussed in the Gd enhanced area, but tumor cells are surely infiltrated beyond the Gd enhanced edge. Although Methionine-PET (MET) and Thallium-SPECT (Tl) are useful for preoperative tumor invasion range identification, they are off-label use in most countries, and their respective accumulation ranges do not match completely. In this study, Gd-MRI, MET, and Tl were performed, and the accumulation range was compared from the fusion images, and the prediction method of the tumor cell infiltration range was examined.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
The mean interval period between MET and Tl administration was 16.3 days in 21 cases of glioblastoma (12 male and 9 female, average age 59.1 ± 17.8 years). Fusion images were generated using iPlan Cranial 3.0.The MET-area, Tl-area, Overlap-area where MET and Tl overlap, and Accumulation-area where MET and Tl are maximally accumulated were measured in the same cross section as the Gd-enhanced maximum area (Gd-area, X cm2) in axial view. Each volume was also measured similarly.
RESULTS
Gd-area was correlated with all of MET-area, Tl-area, Overlap-area, and Accumulation-area (p ≦0.0001).Gd-volume (X’cm3) showed correlation with all of MET-volume, Tl-volume, Overlap-volume, and Accumulation-volume (p ≦0.0001). The linear approximation was calculated as follows. Overlap-area = 1.942X + 1.0208 (R = 0.937), Accumulation-area = 1.3299X + 6.098 (R = 0.889), Overlap-volume = 1.1539X ‘+ 7.0573 (R = 0.927), Accumulation-volume = 1.8668X ‘+30.06 (R = 0.893).
CONCLUSION
These linear approximations can be used to predict the tumor invasion range from the Gd-enhanced maximum area or Gd-enhanced volume without using off-label use drugs.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Positron emission tomography (PET) is important in noninvasive diagnostic imaging of gliomas. There are many PET studies on glioma diagnosis based on the 2007 World Health Organization (WHO) classification; however, there are no studies on glioma diagnosis using the new classification (the 2016 WHO classification).Here we investigated the relationship between PET imaging using 11C-methionine (MET), 11C-choline (CHO), and 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and wildtype isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) (IDH-wt)/mutant IDH (IDH-mut) in astrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors according to the 2016 WHO classification.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
In total, 105 patients with newly diagnosed cerebral gliomas (six diffuse astrocytomas [DAs] with IDH-wt, six DAs with IDH-mut, seven anaplastic astrocytomas [AAs] with IDH-wt, 24 AAs with IDH-mut, 26 glioblastomas [GBMs] with IDH-wt, five GBMs with IDH-mut, 19 oligodendrogliomas [ODs], and 12 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas [AOs]) were included. All OD and AO patients had both IDH-mut and 1p/19q codeletion. The maximum standardized uptake values (SUVs) of the tumor/normal cortex mean SUV ratios (T/N ratios) for MET, CHO, and FDG were calculated; the mean T/N ratios of DA, AA, and GBM with IDH-wt/IDH-mut were compared. The diagnostic accuracy for distinguishing gliomas with IDH-wt from those with IDH-mut was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis of the mean T/N ratios for the three PET tracers.
RESULTS
There were significant differences in the mean T/N ratios for all three PET tracers between the IDH-wt and IDH-mut groups including all histological classifications (p<0.001). Among the 27 gliomas with mean T/N ratios higher than the cutoff values for all three PET tracers, 23 (85.2%) were classified into the IDH-wt group using ROC analysis. In DA, there were no significant differences in the T/N ratios for MET, CHO, and FDG between the IDH-wt and IDH-mut groups. In AA, the mean T/N ratios of all three PET tracers in the IDH-wt group were significantly higher than those in the IDH-mut group (p<0.001). In GBM, the mean T/N ratio in the IDH-wt group was significantly higher than that of the IDH-mut group for both MET (p=0.034) and CHO (p=0.01). However, there was no significant difference in the ratio for FDG.
CONCLUSIONS
PET imaging using MET, CHO, and FDG was confirmed to be informative for preoperatively differentiating gliomas according to the 2016 WHO classification, particularly for differentiating IDH-wt and IDH-mut tumors.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between knee extension strength and gait performance with walking aids and the threshold level of strength to predict gait performance with walking aids in patients with dementia using ordinal logistic modeling.This cross-sectional, observational correlation study was conducted in 56 hospital inpatients with dementia. Knee extensor strength was measured using a hand-held dynamometer. Gait performance was assessed by determining the walking aid that enables the subject to walk 10 m independently as well as without a walking aid.Ordinal logistic modeling showed that the strength of the knee extensor muscles was a significant gait predictor with walking aids (P = .028). Knee extension strength of 0.17, 0.43, and 0.57 N m/kg could reach 80% independence probability for gait with walker, with cane, and without walking aid, respectively.Knee extension strength was significantly related to gait performance with walking aid in people with dementia. Moreover, there are threshold levels of strength that could predict gait with particular walking aid in people with dementia. With regard to resistance training and prescription of walking aids, the probability of independence evaluated from ordinal logistic modeling contributes to efficient rehabilitation intervention.

Abstract
AIM Decreasing behavioral independence levels and increasing frequencies of behavioral disturbances are the most problematic aspects for people with dementia. However, the relative effects of dementia on these factors are unknown. We investigated variability in behavioral independence and disturbance profiles of patients with dementia. METHODS This was a cross-sectional correlation study in which 70 inpatients with dementia from convalescent wards in a hospital were enrolled. We assessed cognitive impairments with the Mini-Mental State Examination, evaluated behavioral independence levels with the Functional Independence Measure and assessed frequency of behavioral disturbances with the Dementia Behavior Disturbance Scale. RESULTS Coefficient determination was 0.395 (P < 0.0001) between the Mini-Mental State Examination and Functional Independence Measure scores, 0.261 (P < 0.0001) between the Mini-Mental State Examination and Dementia Behavior Disturbance Scale scores, and 0.355 (P < 0.0001) between the Functional Independence Measure and Dementia Behavior Disturbance Scale scores. The most easily accomplished behavioral independence was eating, and the hardest was transfer to tub/shower. The behavioral disturbance with the highest frequency was urinary incontinence, and the lowest was emptying drawers or closets. CONCLUSIONS Moderate correlations were found between severity of dementia and behavioral independence levels and frequencies of behavioral disturbances. There were both easier and harder to accomplish behaviors, and both higher and lower frequencies of behavioral disturbances. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2017; 17: 605-613.

Abstract
PRL-3 genomic copy number is increased in colorectal cancer (CRC), and PRL-3 expression is closely associated with lymph node and liver metastasis of CRC. However, the clinical significance of PRL-3 genomic gain for CRC remains obscure. Here, PRL-3 genomic status in 109 primary CRC tumors and in 44 CRC tumors that had metastasized to the liver, was quantified using real time PCR. Association of PRL-3 genomic status with clinicopathological factors and prognosis was assessed in detail. PRL-3 genomic gain was identified in 31 primary CRC (27.4 %) and was more frequently seen in stage III than in stage II (p = 0.025). Among the clinicopathological factors assessed, PRL-3 genomic gain was significantly associated with poorly differentiated histology (p = 0.0039). Moreover, CRC patients with PRL-3 genomic gain exhibited poorer prognosis than those with no gain in stage II-IV CRC (p = 0.017). PRL-3 genomic gain was identified in 18 (41 %) of the liver metastasis tumors, and this frequency of gain was significantly increased as compared to that of the corresponding primary CRCs (11 %) (p = 0.001). Our findings suggested that PRL-3 genomic gain may represent an aggressive phenotype of primary CRC, and may associate with liver metastasis.

Abstract
In recent years, the incidence of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS) and therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) that occur during chemotherapy for ovarian cancer has increased. While alkylating agents and topoisomerase II inhibitors are particularly mutagenic and have strong leukemogenic potential, paclitaxel and combination chemotherapy/radiation therapy also appear to induce t-MDS. The present authors report a case of t-MDS that developed during chemotherapy and radiation therapy for ovarian cancer. The patient was a 75-year-old woman who received six courses of cyclophosphamide/doxorubicin/cisplatin (CAP) therapy after initial surgery for Stage IIIc grade ovarian cancer in 1995. Beginning in February 2005, the patient experienced multiple recurrences due to sternal metastasis. Chemotherapy, including paclitaxel and carboplatin (TC), was administered intermittently and was combined with radiation therapy to a sternal metastatic lesion. Pancytopenia was observed in December 2008, and she was diagnosed with t-MDS (WHO subtype, refractory cytopenias with multilineage dysplasia [RCMD]): the time from first chemotherapy to t-MDS onset was 106 months. Without evidence of blast crisis, the recurrent lesions continued to grow and caused multiple cerebral infarctions, from which she eventually died. The cumulative doses of paclitaxel and carboplatin administered to this patient were 1,968 mg and 6,480 mg, respectively.

Abstract
The present report describes a rare case of a uterine perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) arising from a polypoid adenomyoma. The patient, a 44-year-old woman with tuberous sclerosis, was incidentally found to have a uterine mass with malignant-appearing features on a computed tomography (CT) scan. Pathological examination of the hysterectomy specimen demonstrated that the tumor was composed of pale, spindle-shaped, epithelioid tumor cells which were positive for SMA and HMB-45. These findings were consistent with a PEComa arising from a polypoid adenomyoma.

Abstract
In recent years, Shimane University Hospital has begun to see patients with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) which has become severe and chronic after insufficient conservative treatment in primary or secondary medical care facilities. Serious chronic tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA) is complicated by intraperitoneal inflammatory adhesions to surrounding organs, so that it is difficult to determine the original anatomical position of organs at surgery. Forcible synechotomy can result in damage to the adhering organs and insufficient drainage after surgery can cause recurrence of inflammation. In order to increase the chances for a successful surgical treatment, careful preparation, such as preoperative administration of antibiotics and ureteral stent insertion are necessary. In addition, the chances for recurrence of inflammation can be lessened by thorough intraperitoneal irrigation and insertion of a drainage tube.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This phase I first-in-human study was conducted in Japanese patients to investigate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PKs), and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oral TAK-285, a novel dual erbB protein kinase inhibitor that specifically targets human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and HER2. METHODS The TAK-285 dose was escalated until MTD was determined. A second patient cohort received TAK-285 at the MTD for at least 4 weeks. RESULTS In all, 26 patients received TAK-285 at doses ranging from 50 to 400 mg once daily (q.d.) or twice daily (b.i.d.); 20 patients made up the dose escalation cohort and the remaining 6 patients were the repeated administration cohort. TAK-285 was well tolerated. Dose-limiting toxicities noted in two patients who received 400 mg b.i.d. were grade 3 increases in aminotransferases and grade 3 decreased appetite. Consequently, the MTD was determined to be 300 mg b.i.d. Absorption of TAK-285 was rapid after oral dosing, and plasma exposure at steady-state increased in a dose-proportional fashion for doses ranging from 50 to 300 mg b.i.d. A partial response was observed for one patient with parotid cancer who received 300 mg b.i.d. CONCLUSION The toxicity profile and PK properties of oral TAK-285 warrant further evaluation.

Abstract
119 Background: Oral fluoropyrimidine plus cisplatin is widely used as a standard treatment for advanced gastric cancer, but patients (pts) with severe peritoneal metastasis often cannot tolerate this regimen. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of fluorouracil (5-FU), leucovorin (LV), plus paclitaxel (PTX) for peritoneal disseminated gastric cancer with massive ascites or inadequate oral intake. Methods: Peritoneal disseminated gastric cancer with massive ascites or inadequate oral intake were enrolled in Part I (Level 1 (n=6): 5-FU bolus/l- LV div 2hr/PTX div 1hr = 500/250/60, Level 2 (n=6): 600/250/80 mg/m2 (day1, 8, 15, q4w) to determine dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and recommended dose (RD). In Part II (n=19), primary endpoint was completion rate of 2 cycles to evaluate the feasibility of this regimen at RD level. Results: One of Level 1 pts had DLT with grade 4 gastrointestinal perforation. Two of Level 2 pts had DLT (grade 3 febrile neutropenia and grade 3 infection with normal neutrophils) and treatment-related death (TRD) was observed in one patient due to pneumonia with grade 4 neutropenia. The RD was determined to be Level 1. Twenty-five patients were enrolled at RD level: first-line/second-line=18/7, performance status 0/1/2=1/19/5. The completion rate of 2 cycles was 92% and objective response rate of ascites was 45%. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was observed in 12% (febrile neutropenia in 8%). Five patients out of 7 second-line patients died within 30 days after last administration of FLTAX (TRD: 1 and disease progression: 4). Conclusions: RD of FLTAX regimen was 5-FU/l-LV/PTX=500/250/60 mg/m2. This regimen was feasible as the first-line treatment against peritoneal disseminated gastric cancer patients with massive ascites or inadequate oral intake. [Table: see text]

Abstract
578 Background: BV is widely used for treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. Although BV was often administrated to mCRC patients in combination with oxaliplatin, optimal schedule remains unclear. Many mCRC patients cannot continue to use oxalipatin because of cumulative neurotoxity, which decreases patient's QOL and motivation.We postulated that modification of oxaliplatin schedule would improve TTF in intermittent oxaliplatin usage. Therefore, we planned to use BV with original OPTIMOX1 adiministration schedule; modified oxaliplatin dose (85 mg/m3). Methods: Patients were enrolled with the criteria excluding neuropathy, PS ≥ 1, or no previous usage of oxaliplatin and BV, and then were received modified FOLFOX6 regimen (L-OHP 85 mg/m2, l-LV 200 mg/m2, 5-FU 400 mg/m2 bolus, 5-FU 2,400 mg/m2 46h continuous infusion) plus BV (5 mg/kg) q2wks x 6 cycles, followed sLV5FU2 (omit L-OHP) plus BV x 12 cycles regimen. After that, oxaliplatin reintroduction was done and mFOLFOX6 plus BV regimen was continued until PD. The evaluation of antitumor effect was done according to RECIST Criteria. Results: 40 patients accrued this trial. Median age was 65 years old. PS0: 89.5%, male: 75%, female: 25%, colon: 65.8%, rectal: 31.6%,colon + rectal: 2.6%. During initial 6 cycles of chemotherapy, 90% patients could continue chemotherapy. Response rate was 50%, and clinical benefit (including SD) was 92.1%. During Intial 6 cycles, G3 neuropathy occurred 2.6%, and G2 were 5%. Most frequent toxicity (≥G3) was neutropenia (30.8%) and anorexia (5.3%). One patient could complete the scheduled regimen. This patient continued mFOLFOX6+BV for 12 cycles after reintroduction keeping with PS 0, and was received FOLFIRI+BV regimen as second-line chemotherapy. Further information are under examination. Conclusions: This administration schedule was well tolerated and could continue chemotherapy longer than usual method. sLV5FU2+BV regimen was not affected reintroduction rate and progression free survival. BV with mOPTIMOX1 regimen can be expected to become a good treatment options for mCRC patients. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare microwave endometrial ablation (MEA) using a new curved applicator with conventional surgical procedures in 26 patients with menorrhagia. STUDY DESIGN Ten patients received MEA and 16 patients received conventional surgical procedures. Using a visual analog scale (VAS). MEA patients rated their menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, and feelings of satisfaction from the procedure. The patients' intraoperative blood loss, operating time, and length of hospital stay were compared. RESULTS Following MEA, the VAS scores were significantly decreased in the MEA patients for menorrhagia (p < 0.0001) and dysmenorrhea (p = 0.0002). The average VAS score regarding feelings of satisfaction for MEA was 8.9 (full score = 10). Mean blood loss, operating time, and mean length of hospital stay were significantly decreased in the MEA group compared to the conventional surgical procedure group (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION MEA successfully controlled menorrhagia and achieved a high rate of satisfaction among patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECT An antiulcer agent, ecabet sodium, is active against Helicobacter pylori. The aim of the present study was to clinically examine whether eradication therapy, which includes ecabet sodium, is effective in eradication of H. pylori after failure of first-line therapy. METHODS Patients with peptic ulcer who failed with first-line triple eradication therapy containing clarithromycin received quadruple therapy with omeprazole (20 mg, twice daily), amoxicillin (750 mg, twice daily), metronidazole (500 mg, twice daily) and ecabet sodium (1000 mg, twice daily) for 14 days. Eradication of H. pylori was judged by 13C-urea breath test 8 weeks later. RESULTS Fifty-two patients (36 men and 16 women) were included. Their mean age was 51.4 years (range 28-73). One patient dropped out because of diarrhoea. The eradication rate was 98.0% (50/51) according to the per-protocol analysis and 96.2% (50/52) according to the intention-to-treat analysis. Side effects occurred in seven patients, but none were serious. CONCLUSIONS Quadruple therapy including ecabet sodium is useful as second-line eradication treatment for H. pylori.

Abstract
The factors determining temperature and current coefficients of lasing wavelength are investigated and discussed under monitoring CO(2)-gas absorption spectra. The diffusion rate of Joule heating at the active layer to the surrounding region is observed by monitoring the change in the junction voltage, which is a function of temperature and the wavelength (frequency) deviation under sinusoidal current modulation. Based on the experimental results, the time interval of monitoring the wavelength after changing the ambient temperature or injected current (scanning rate) has to be constant at least to eliminate the monitoring error induced by the deviation of lasing wavelength, though the temperature and current coefficients of lasing wavelength differ with the rate.

Abstract
Exaggerated placental site is defined as a non-neoplastic trophoblastic lesion featuring exuberant infiltration into the endometrium and myometrium by intermediate trophoblasts and syncytiotrophoblasts. Exaggerated placental site can occur following normal or ectopic pregnancy, abortion, or hydatidiform mole. We encountered a case of reactive exaggerated placental site seven months following normal pregnancy that clinically mimicked placental site trophoblastic tumor. Few reports have described the clinical course, histopathology and differential diagnosis of exaggerated placental site; we present our patient's case together with histopathological observations and review of related literature.

Abstract
A newly developed free radical scavenger, 3-methyl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (MCI-186), holds promise for clinical application. We clinically evaluated the effect of MCI-186 on cerebral infarction by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and proton MR spectroscopy (MRS). Six patients with large supratentorial infarction were evaluated with sequential MRI and proton MRS. These patients were also administered MCI-186 for 14 days after ischemic insult (MCI-186 group). The findings were compared with those for patients who had supratentorial infarctions equivalent in size to those in the MCI-186 group but who had received only conventional therapy. The course of change of the size of infarction was evaluated by MRI, and the metabolic changes following cerebral infarction were evaluated by proton MRS. As a result, there was no significant difference between the initial size of infarction in the conventionally treated group and that in the MCI-186 treated groups, nor did the groups show significant difference in the sequential changes depicted by MRI in the area of infarction, midline shift, or amount of edema. However, on MRS, the N-acetyl aspartate signal was significantly higher in the MCI-186 group than in the conventionally treated patients. In conclusion, MCI-186 has an effect of preservation of N-acetyl-aspartate, which is thought to be a neuronal marker, in cerebral infarction.

Abstract
e15569 Background: When a tumor invades to the muscularis mucosa or submucosal layer (T1a-MM or T1b, in Japan), cSt I esophageal cancer(EC) has 10–50%. risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). Surgery, though very invasive, is the standard radical therapy for the patients(pts.) with such stage EC. Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), which conserves the esophagus, is a minimally invasive and attractive therapeutic modality for such pts. However, the clinical outcomes of EMR for these pts. have been not fully elucidated. Methods: We conducted retrospective analysis of the clinical courses of 44 pts. who underwent EMR for newly diagnosed T1a-MM or T1bcN0M0 EC between 1994 and 2007at our hospital, and who could be followed up for at least 1 year. Statistical analysis was performed by the Kaplan-Meier methods and the Cox proportional hazard model. Results: Patients decided on the following treatments immediately after EMR based on informed consent and their general condition; 2 underwent surgery, one underwent prophylactic chemotherapy(CHT) and 41 selected follow-up without any additional therapy. Of the 41, 20 selected this course by choice, 12 because of severe concurrent disease; 2 because of poor performance status and 7 because of other multiple primary cancers (MPCs). Twelve pts. died; 2 were cause specific; (4.5%), 8 from MPCs and, 2 from unknown causes. Median age was 67 years old (range 53–80), and 5 were female. No critical comlications were noted. Median follow-up time was 1542days (375–3786). 5 developed LNM. One with prophylactic CHT, was followed by surgery, and another was followed by CHT, who showed cause specific deaths later. Other 3 pts. followed by chemoradiotherapy, did not show cause specific death. Overall and cause specific survival rates at 5 years were 67.3% and 91.8%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that either severe concurrent disease or MPCs significanctly influenced survival (p=0.041, HR 5.437(95%CI 1.073–25.542)). 8 and 6 pts. developed metachronous EC and local recurrence, respectively. Apart from one, they could be retreated endoscopicaly. Conclusions: EMR is a very useful therapeutic modality for cSt I EC, not only for local control but also as a clinically sufficient treatment; especially in pts. with severe concurrent disease. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e15110 Background: The alteration of serum-iron level during chemotherapy is already reported (Follezou, NEOPLASMA 1985). However, the correlation to prognosis has not been evaluated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the correlation between prognosis and serum-iron level in advanced / metastatic colorectal cancer (aCRC / mCRC) patients treated by FOLFOX / FOLFIRI. Methods: Serum-iron levels, hemoglobin, AST and ALT serum levels in immediately pre and post chemotherapy were analyzed in 58 aCRC / mCRC patients received FOLFOX-4 / FOLFIRI therapy between April 2005 and September 2008. 26 patients received FOLFOX-4 / FOLFIRI therapy as the final chemotherapy died by the time of analysis. These patients were categorized into the high increase group and the low increase group using 200% increase as cut-off value and the prognosis was compared. Results: Mean serum-iron levels in immediately pre and post chemotherapy were 71.7±29.0μg/dl and 186.8±83.2μg/dl, respectively, and significant increase after chemotherapy was observed (p<0.001). This increase was transient and returns to pre chemotherapy level by the start of next course. This alteration was always observed on the chemotherapy. The median survival times from the initiation of FOLFOX-4 / FOLFIRI therapy for the high increase group (n: 5) and the low increase group (n: 21) were 487 and 182 days, respectively, and was significantly better in the high increase group (p=0.004). The alterations of hemoglobin, AST and ALT serum levels in immediately pre and post chemotherapy were not observed. Conclusions: It is suggested that serum-iron increase is a biological response not attributed to leakage from erythrocyte and hepatocyte. Significantly better prognosis in high serum-iron group may suggest the usefulness of serum-iron level to distinguish responder and non-responder in FOLFOX-4/FOLFIRI therapy.

4555 Background: Our previous phase I study (Oncology 2008, 75:1–7) provided evidence that combination chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and S-1 (DCS) is effective and well tolerated in patients with advanced gastric cancer. The present multicenter phase II study was conducted to confirm the efficacy and toxicity of DCS in advanced gastric cancer. Methods: Eligibility criteria included a histologically proved diagnosis of gastric adenocarcinoma with at least one measurable metastatic lesion, no previous treatment for gastric cancer except for surgery, an ECOG performance status of 0 to 2, and adequate organ function. Docetaxel (40 mg/m2) and cisplatin (70–60 mg/m2) were given intravenously on day 1, and S-1 was given orally at a dose of 40 mg/m2 twice daily from days 1 to day 14 of a 28-day cycle. Patients received a maximum of 6 cycles. Subsequently, patients were given repeated cycles of S-1 plus docetaxel (DS). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. Results: 59 patients (47 men, 12 women) were enrolled. The median age was 62 (range: 35–75) years. PS 0/1/2 was 40/18/1. The median number of treatment cycles was 7 (DCS 6+DS 1: range, 1–20). Because myeloid suppression and renal dysfunction developed during the study, we lowered the recommended dose of cisplatin from 70 mg/m2 to 60 mg/m2. The dose of cisplatin was 70 mg/m2 in 19 patients and 60 mg/m2 in 40. The overall response rate was 81.3% (48/59; 95% CI, 80.7–91.2). The response rates with cisplatin 70 mg/m2 and 60 mg/m2 were 78.9% (95% CI, 60.5–97.2) and 82.5% (95% CI, 70.7–94.2), respectively. Tumor down-staging was achieved in 9 (18.7%) of the 48 patients who responded to treatment. The median survival time and median progression-free survival were not reached. Grade 3 or 4 major toxicity comprised leukopenia (44.0%), neutropenia (72.8%), anemia (15.2%), febrile neutropenia (13.5%), anorexia (6.7%), nausea (5.1%), vomiting (5.1%), fatigue (1.6%), and diarrhea (5.1%). There was one treatment-related death caused by the perforation of the primary tumor. This patient refused surgery. Conclusions: DCS was a well-tolerated regimen with a high response rate in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Cisplatin at a dose of 60 mg/m2 was considered adequately effective. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
Ovarian tumors of low malignant potential (LMP) appear to be intermediate between adenomas and ovarian carcinomas. Such tumors are often associated with a significantly better prognosis than for ovarian carcinomas. However, a subset of LMPs can progress and become lethal even in patients with early-stage disease. In order to seek sensitive diagnostic tools to monitor patients after surgical therapy, we performed a genome-wide scan for LOH in 37 early-stage mucinous LMPs using 91 polymorphic microsatellite markers at an average interval of 50 cM across all of the human chromosomes and 25 LOH markers reported to be associated with ovarian carcinoma. Fractional allelic loss (FAL) values were calculated as (loci scored with LOH)/(total informative loci) for each sample. With respect to tumor recurrence, high FAL values were more frequent in recurrent tumors than in non-recurrent tumors. Using the screening markers, FAL values for recurrent tumors were significantly higher than for non-recurrent tumors (19.8% vs 6.3%, respectively, p < 0.0001). Similar results were obtained using the hotspot markers (22.2% vs 7.1%, respectively, p < 0.0001). A significant correlation between FAL values obtained using screening markers and those based on hotspot markers was observed (R = 0.460, p = 0.003). Our findings suggest that a specific type of genetic instability (i.e., chromosomal instability, CIN) may exist in mucinous LMPs, and that this instability may indicate tumors with an aggressive biological nature. Therefore, FAL values may represent a new biomarker for risk prediction in early-stage mucinous LMP tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The relationship of (11)C-methionine (MET) uptake and tumor activity in low-grade gliomas (those meeting the criteria for World Health Organization [WHO] grade II gliomas) remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to compare MET uptake in low-grade gliomas and to analyze whether MET positron-emission tomography (PET) can estimate tumor viability and provide evidence of malignant transformation. MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied glioma metabolic activity in 49 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed grade II gliomas by using MET PET before surgical resection. On MET PET, we measured tumor/normal brain uptake ratio (T/N ratio) in 21 diffuse astrocytomas (DAs), 12 oligodendrogliomas (ODs), and 16 oligoastrocytomas (OAs). We compared MET T/N ratio among these 3 tumors and investigated possible correlation with proliferative activity, as measured by Mib-1 labeling index (LI). RESULTS MET T/N ratios of DA, OD, and OA were 2.11 +/- 0.87, 3.75 +/- 1.43, and 2.76 +/- 1.27, respectively. The MET T/N ratio of OD was significantly higher than that of DA (P < .005). In comparison of MET T/N ratios with the Mib-1 LI, a significant correlation was shown in DA (r = 0.63; P < .005) but not in OD and OA. CONCLUSION MET uptake in DAs may be closely associated with tumor viability, which depends on increased amino acid transport by an activated carrier-mediated system. DAs with lower MET uptake were considered more quiescent lesions, whereas DA with higher MET uptake may act more aggressively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Positron-emission tomography (PET) is a useful tool in oncology. The aim of this study was to assess the metabolic activity of gliomas using (11)C-methionine (MET), [(18)F] fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), and (11)C-choline (CHO) PET and to explore the correlation between the metabolic activity and histopathologic features. MATERIALS AND METHODS PET examinations were performed for 95 primary gliomas (37 grade II, 37 grade III, and 21 grade IV). We measured the tumor/normal brain uptake ratio (T/N ratio) on each PET and investigated the correlations among the tracer uptake, tumor grade, tumor type, and tumor proliferation activity. In addition, we compared the ease of visual evaluation for tumor detection. RESULTS All 3 of the tracers showed positive correlations with astrocytic tumor (AT) grades (II/IV and III/IV). The MET T/N ratio of oligodendroglial tumors (OTs) was significantly higher than that of ATs of the same grade. The CHO T/N ratio showed a significant positive correlation with histopathologic grade in OTs. Tumor grade and type influenced MET uptake only. MET T/N ratios of more than 2.0 were seen in 87% of all of the gliomas. All of the tracers showed significantly positive correlations with Mib-1 labeling index in ATs but not in OTs and oligoastrocytic tumors. CONCLUSION MET PET appears to be useful in evaluating grade, type, and proliferative activity of ATs. CHO PET may be useful in evaluating the potential malignancy of OTs. In terms of visual evaluation of tumor localization, MET PET is superior to FDG and CHO PET in all of the gliomas, due to its straightforward detection of "hot lesions".

Abstract
Alkylating agents have strong leukemogenic potential. There are a number of recent acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) cases related to previous paclitaxel exposure. These leukemias tend to be of aggressive subtypes with long-latency periods. Unlike previously reported cases, the present case was of the secondary acute megakaryoblastic myeloid leukemia (AML M7) subtype. Additionally, it did not harbor a translocation in chromosome 19. A 73-year-old woman was diagnosed with t-AML M7 with antecedent myelodysplasia. Leukemia followed a second induction of paclitaxel- and carboplatin-based chemotherapy for recurrent ovarian cancer. Her second induction began 25 months after completion of her first course of chemotherapy. The increased incidence of postpaclitaxel leukemia suggests a probable role for paclitaxel as a leukemogenic agent. It highlights the importance of assessing for leukemia risk factors prior to beginning paclitaxel therapy.

Abstract
Transgenic (Tg)-cloned pigs expressing fluorescent proteins are very useful in research such as cell or tissue transplantation studies. In this study, we produced Tg-cloned pigs with an orange fluorescent protein, humanized Kusabira-Orange (huKO), and analyzed the characteristics of these pigs. Fetal fibroblast cells transduced with huKO gene by a gene silencing-resistant retroviral vector, pDΔNhuKO (Suzuki et al. 2002 J. Neurochem. 82, 953–960) were used as nuclear donors. Recipient cytoplasts were prepared using oocytes matured in vitro in NCSU23. The nuclear transfer (NT) embryos were transferred into oviducts of estrus-synchronized recipient gilts after culture in PZM-5 for 1 or 2 days. Cloned pigs obtained were analyzed by Southern blotting for the transgene integration. A total of 23 organs and tissues, including brain, eye, internal and reproductive organs, skin, skeletal muscle, and cartilage were examined by fluorescence stereomicroscopy. Cryo- and paraffin-embedded tissue sections were also prepared to examine fluorescence expression. Immunofluorescent staining of brain cryosection and flow cytometry analysis of peripheral blood cells were performed to identify huKO-expressing cells. Transfer of 429 NT embryos into 4 recipients resulted in 18 (4.2%) cloned offspring. Southern blotting analysis of the cloned pigs confirmed transduction of 2 to 17 copies of the huKO gene in each pig. Autopsy was performed in 6 pigs, and orange fluorescence was confirmed in all the tissues and organs examined in each pig. In addition, prominent orange fluorescence was detected in pancreatic islets and renal glomeruli, indicating that these transgenic pigs are ideal for islet cell transplantation studies. Expression of huKO was also detected in neurons, microglia, and astrocytes in the brain, and granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, and platelets in the peripheral blood cells, whereas the expression level in red blood cells was lower. Re-cloning was performed using primary culture fibroblast cells established from 2 Tg-cloned pigs. Transfer of 300 re-cloned embryos into 4 recipients resulted in 3 pregnancies. A re-cloned fetus at Day 44 of gestation showed systemic fluorescence. These results demonstrate that the retroviral vector pD?NhuKO is resistant to gene silencing in pigs, that transduction and expression of the huKO gene had no lethal effects on fetal development, and that a Tg-cloned pig expressing orange fluorescence can be produced by NT of fetal fibroblast cells transduced with the huKO gene.

Abstract
Cryopreservation of mammalian metaphase-II (M-II) oocytes is still impractical compared to that of early stage embryos. In this study we examined the effects of delipation and mitotic spindle stabilization in order to improve the post-vitrification survival rate of in vitro-matured (IVM) porcine oocytes at the M-II stage. Cumulus–oocyte complexes that had been collected from slaughterhouse ovaries were matured in vitro in NCSU23 supplemented with 0.6 mm cysteine, 10 ng mL–1 epidermal growth factor (EGF), 10% porcine follcular fluid (PFF), and 10 IU mL–1 eCG and hCG. The denuded M-II oocytes were vitrified in the presence of 30% ethylene glycol and 0.5 m sucrose using the minimum volume cooling (MVC) method with a MVC plate (Cryotop�; Kitazato Supply, Tokyo, Japan). Vitrified embryos were rewarmed by immersing the MVC plate directly into rewarming solution containing 1 m sucrose and 20% calf serum at 39�C for 1 min, followed by stepwise dilution of the cryoprotectants. We compared the effects of previtrification treatments, namely, (1) delipation, (2) mitotic spindle stabilization, (3) delipation + mitotic spindle stabilization, and (4) no treatment. For delipation, we used a noninvasive method (Esaki et al. 2004 Biol. Reprod. 71, 432–437) that we had published previously with slight modification. The embryos were treated with 4% trypsin at 38�C for approximately two min to expand the zona pellucida, and then centrifuged (12 000g, 38�C 23 min) with 7.5 µg mL–1 cytochalasin B to polarize cytoplasmic lipid droplets within the perivitelline space. For mitotic spindle stabilization, M-II oocytes were vitrified in the presence of 1 µm paclitaxel. After the oocytes were rewarmed, electrical activation of the oocytes (150 V mm–1, 100 µs, one time) was carried out to induce parthenogenesis. These parthenogenetic embryos were cultured in PZM-5 for 7 days, and the number of vitrified embryos that developed into blastocysts with respect to each treatment was determined. The blastcyst formation rate and mean cell numbers of the blastcysts were compared among the treatment groups (chi-square test, Tukey's test). Of the 50 M-II oocytes that had been vitrified without pretreatment, only one oocyte (2.0%) developed into a blastocyst with 20 cells. By contrast, the number of vitrified embryos that developed into blastocysts was significantly high when they were delipated prior to vitrification (37.8%, 14/37, 64.0 � 9.6; P < 0.01). Mitotic spindle stabilization also improved the survival rate of vitrified oocytes (18.6%, 21/113, 56.7 � 9.6; P < 0.01). The combination of delipation and mitotic spindle stabilization produced the highest number of vitrified oocytes that developed into blastocysts (43.8%, 35/80, 69.4 � 6.4), although the difference between the combination group and the delipation group was not significant. These results indicate that blastocysts can be produced very efficiently from IVM porcine oocytes that have been vitrified at the M-II stage using both noninvasive delipation and mitotic spindle stabilization procedures.

Abstract
Cryopreservation of cloned embryos is expected to be beneficial in improving the efficiency of somatic cell cloning in pigs. We have already demonstrated that normal piglets can be produced from in vitro-matured and fertilized (IVM/IVF) embryos vitrified at an early cleavage stage after delipation (Nagashima et al. 2007 Biol. Reprod. 76, 900–905). In this study we utilized this technique in an attempt to produce piglets from cloned embryos reconstructed with IVM oocytes. Nuclear transfer (NT) embryos were reconstructed using oocytes matured in vitro in NCSU23 and preadipocytes as nuclear donors. The embryos were cultured in PZM-5 for approximately 98 h, and those that had developed to the morula stage were delipated using a noninvasive method described previously (Esaki et al. 2004 Biol. Reprod. 71, 432–437). The embryos were treated with 4% trypsin at 38�C for 1 to 4 min to induce a slight swelling of the zona pellucida, and then centrifuged (12 000g, 38�C, 23 min) with 7.5 µg mL–1 cytochalasin B to polarize cytoplasmic lipid droplets within the perivitelline space. The embryos were cultured for 1 h and vitrified by the minimum volume cooling (MVC) method using a MVC plate (Cryotop�; Kitasato Supply Co., Tokyo, Japan) in the presence of 15% ethylene glycol, 15% DMSO, and 0.5 m sucrose as cryoprotectants. Vitrified embryos were rewarmed by immersing the MVC plate diretly into rewarming solution containing 1 m sucrose and 20% calf serum at 38�C for 1 min, followed by stepwise dilution of the cryoprotectants. The rewarmed embryos were cultured for 2 days to the blastocyst stage, and then treated with 0.5% pronase to remove the zona pellucida before transfer to the uterine horn of recipients. A total of 103 vitrified blastocysts were transferred to 2 recipient gilts. Both gilts became pregnant and farrowed 2 and 4 piglets, respectively (6/103, 5.8%). These results demonstrate that cloned piglets can be produced from NT embryos that have been cryopreserved at the morula stage using noninvasive delipation and vitrification procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) of gynecologic origin is an exceedingly rare, highly malignant tumor. Only a few cases have been reported in the last decades. CASE REPORT A 60-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with a high LDH level of unknown origin. Ultimately, she was diagnosed with pleomorphic RMS. She underwent total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, left pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy and partial omentectomy. Surgery was followed by systemic chemotherapy and pelvic irradiation. Unfortunately, the patient did not respond to treatment. Her disease course correlated with the fluctuation of plasma LDH levels. Ultimately she died within 20 months of the diagnosis. CONCLUSION It is important to have better insight and to set a standard multimodal treatment for adult RMS. In addition, plasma LDH levels can be considered as a prognostic marker for RMS, particularly in advanced stage.

15105 Background: Therapy for early gastric cancer (GC) varies according to risk of LNM. When the possibility of LNM is very remote, the primary lesion can be resected by the minimally invasive endoscopic surgery only. Therefore, useful parameters predicting LNM are needed. E-cadherin, a component of the cell-cell junctional structure, is known to correlate with GC. In vitro, previous studies elucidated that disorders of cell-cell junction increased the potential of metastasis, and that phosphorylation of β-catenin by c-erbB-2 induced loss of membranous E-cadherin and β-catenin, resulting in junctional structure disorders. Here we evaluated significance of analysis of these molecules in LNM prediction in early GC. Methods: The clinicopathological features and immunohistochemical expressions of E-cadherin, β-catenin, and c-erbB-2 in the primary lesion were studied in 28 patients (LNM +ve group: 14, LNM1 -ve group: 14) selected from 272 patients who underwent radical surgery for early GC between April 2000 to March 2004 at our hospital. All the patients consented to use of their stomach tissues for the clinical study afterwards. Statistical analysis was performed by t-test or χ2 test. Results: The clinicopathological features showed no significant differences between both groups. Loss of the membranous E-cadherin was noticed in 12 (85%) of the 14 LNM +ve patients, and in 8 (57%) of the 14 LNM -ve patients (p=0.209). This result was more remarkable in the intestinal type GC as the corresponding figures were 83% (5 of 6 ) and 16% (1 of 6) (p=0.083), respectively. Loss of the membranous β-catenin also showed a remarkable similar trend in the intestinal type GC, and the corresponding figures were 100% (6 of 6) and 50% (3 of 6) (p=0.182), respectively. Two patients showed over-expression of c-erbB2 and nuclear accumulation of β-catenin, and both had intestinal type GC with LNM. Conclusions: These results suggested that the same molecular signal pathway - as in vitro - including E-cadherin, β-catenin, and c-erbB2 induced LNM in early GC (intestinal type). We concluded that analysis of the expressions of these molecules is useful for not only LNM prediction but also determination of the therapeutic modality especially in intestinal type early GC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Neuropsychologic deficits are well-known sequelae of traumatic brain injury. However, the cerebral correlates of these deficits are still unclear. The aim of the present study was to elucidate the regions of cerebral dysfunction correlated with such neuropsychologic deficits after traumatic brain injury. METHODS Sets of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose-positron-emission tomography (FDG-PET) images in the resting state were obtained from 12 patients with neuropsychologic deficits after diffuse axonal injury and from 32 healthy volunteers. The cortical metabolic activity of each subject's PET image sets was extracted using 3D stereotactic surface projection (3D-SSP). A "normal" data base was created using the extracted datasets of the healthy subjects. The patients' datasets were compared with the normal data base by calculating a statistical Z-score on a pixel-by-pixel basis in searches for focal metabolic abnormalities. RESULTS Group comparisons revealed hypometabolism in the cingulate gyrus with additional involvement of the lingual gyrus and cuneus. Individual case-by-case analyses disclosed differences in the site and extent of the hypometabolism in the cingulate gyrus of each case. Predominant hypometabolism was found in the anterior cingulate gyrus of 6 patients, the middle cingulate gyrus of 2 patients, and the posterior cingulate gyrus of 4 patients. CONCLUSION Interpretation of FDG-PET using 3D-SSP facilitates the identification of regional hypometabolism in the cerebral cortex of patients after diffuse axonal injury. Dysfunction of the cingulate gyrus, lingual gyrus, and cuneus may play a crucial role in neuropsychologic deficits after traumatic brain injury.
