Abstract
[Introduction] Personalized health care is recommended for the prevention and early detection of breast cancer. Advances in technology have made it possible to estimate genetic risk, PGV (pathogenic/likely-pathogenic germline variant) or PRS (polygenic risk score), in practice. However, linkage after risk assessment to personalized health care is still developing. One of the issues is how to tell the result especially in case of newly diagnosed PGV after Genetic Panel Testing or PRS. In this study, we evaluated genetic counseling (GC) using an established patient-reported outcome measure for clinical genetics services scale (Genetic Counseling Outcome Scale24 (GCOS24)) at genetic counseling for disclosure the results of the previous study, and examined the association with management after GC. [Method] We performed targeted sequencing for 11 breast cancer-related genes using peripheral blood DNA from 1995 female breast cancer patients. Of 1995 cases, 101 patients were PGV carriers, who were candidates of this study. Participants were referred to the Clinical Genetics unit, Kyoto University Hospital from 10 institutions (January 2018-March 2022). GCOS24 and relating questionaries were asked before and after GC. GCOS24 is a scale consisting of 24 items that assess five factors: decision control, cognitive control, behavioral control, emotional regulation, and hope. (In light of the current status of hereditary breast cancer care in Japan, 23 items were used.) Each item is rated on a scale of 1-7 points, for a total score of 23-161. In addition, we reviewed medical records to evaluate the post-GC management. [Results] Of the 101 cases, 38 cases were enrolled. The reasons of 63 not-enrolled cases were: 30 cases without follow-up (deaths or transfer to another hospital), 11 cases already diagnosed in clinical practice, 18 cases that did not wish to know their results, and 4 cases whose hospital were developing for hereditary breast cancer care. Median age at the time of genetic GC was 55 (min-max 30-83) years. Details of PGV cases were: BRCA2 23 cases, BRCA1 2, PALB2 4, PTEN 3, TP53 3, ATM 1, CHEK2 1 and NF1 1. GCOS24 after GC were improved than before GC. (Average 99 (min-max 17-124) vs 114 (91-138), Mean difference 23.9, 95% Confidence intervals (CI) 29.6 to 18.3). Thirty patients (79%) had higher increase in scores than 10.3, which was the previously reported Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID) of this scale. In all items except 4 items (#6,11,13,21), GCOS24 after GC were significantly improved than before GC. In post-GC management, 8 patients received or planned RRSO (risk reducing salpingo-oophorectomy) among 25 BRCA1/2 cases. There was a case with dysplastic cells detected in the resected ovary. After GC, average of GCOS24 in RRSO cases was 120 (95% CI 110 to 129), while average of GCOS24 of other BRCA1/2 cases was 110 (95% CI 104 to 116). On the other hand, two patients stopped visiting to the hospital because of fear after GC. Average of GCOS24 of 15 junior-high/high school graduate cases were 111 (95% CI 105 to 117), while average of GCOS24 of 23 college graduate cases were 117 (95% CI 111 to 122). [Discussion] In patients diagnosed with hereditary breast cancer by genetic panel testing, GC worked well except for 4 items. These 4 items (#6,11,13,21) were related to emotion. This study revealed there was also a risk to reject surveillance due to fear, suggesting that it is necessary to provide psychological support in some cases. Although the limitation of this study is the small number of cases, GCOS24 were high in RRSO cases, suggesting that GC played an important role when proceeding with intervention. We believe that the findings are helpful for the future implementation of genetic panel testing or PRS testing in healthy subjects for personalized health care.

Abstract
We evaluated the efficacy of surgical glove(SG)-compression therapy for paclitaxel (PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy (PN)and the impact of PN prevention on treatment duration. Patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer underwent a combined treatment of PTX and bevacizumab with(n=20; patients wore 2 SGs for 120 min)or without(n=15) compression therapy. SG-compression therapy significantly decreased the incidence of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events(CTCAE)v4.0 Grade 2 or higher PN by 71.9% and prolonged time-to-treatment-failure(TTF)of PTX from 200 to 240 days. SG-compression therapy was effective for PTX-induced PN and may have prolonged the TTF of PTX.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal positioning of eribulin treatment remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of eribulin administration as first- and second-line chemotherapy in patients with endocrine-resistant advanced or metastatic breast cancer (AMBC) in the real-world clinical setting. METHODS This multi-institutional prospective cohort study enrolled patients with triple-negative AMBC or estrogen receptor-positive AMBC refractory to at least one previous endocrine therapy. The overall survival (OS) from the start of first-line (OS1) and second-line chemotherapy (OS2) was assessed. Data analysis included real-world chemotherapy sequences of first- to third-line chemotherapy regimens. The adjusted hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for treatment regimen comparison was calculated using a stratified proportional hazards model. RESULTS Among 201 patients enrolled, 180 were included in the final analysis. Eribulin was administered as first- and second-line chemotherapy to 46 (26.6%) and 70 (47.9%) patients, respectively. Median OS1 and OS2 were 2.25 (95% CI 1.07-2.68) and 1.75 (95% CI, 1.28-2.45) years for first- and second-line eribulin, respectively. Oral 5-FU followed by eribulin had a numerically longer OS1 (2.84 years) than the other sequences. Among patients who proceeded to second-line or later chemotherapy, the median OS1 for those treated with anthracycline or taxane as first- or second-line (n = 98) was 2.56 years (95% CI 2.27-2.74), while it was 2.87 years (95% CI 2.20-4.32) for those who avoided anthracycline and taxane as first- and second-line (n = 48) (adjusted HR, 1.20; 95% CI 0.70-2.06). In the exploratory analysis, OS1 was 2.55 (95% CI 2.14-2.75) and 2.91 years (95% CI 2.61-4.32) for those aged < 65 and ≥ 65 years, respectively (adjusted HR of ≥ 65, 0.91; 95% CI 0.56-1.46). CONCLUSIONS Eribulin or oral 5-FU administration in first- and second-line chemotherapy without anthracycline/taxane was acceptable in the real-world setting.

Abstract
Pegfilgrastim, a pegylated form of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, has reduced the risk of developing febrile neutropenia, which is associated with an increase in severe infection and prolonged hospitalization. However, pegfilgrastim administration requires that patients visit hospital following cancer chemotherapy, thus imposing a burden on patients and those around them. An on-body injector (OBI), which automatically administers pegfilgrastim about 27 hours after chemotherapy, was used in this study. The OBI, which consists of a main pump unit and infusion set, is a drug delivery device designed to be attached to the patient's body, with a timer-controlled dosing function. This study was conducted in breast cancer patients to evaluate the safety of pegfilgrastim administered subcutaneously via the OBI. The study period consisted of screening and treatment observation periods involving four cycles of neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel plus cyclophosphamide. One 3.6 mg pegfilgrastim dose was administered subcutaneously via OBI, during each cycle of chemotherapy. The study enrolled 35 patients and no serious adverse events or febrile neutropenia occurred. Administration of pegfilgrastim was successfully completed at all times when the OBI was attached to the patient and no safety concerns associated with OBI function arose. For outpatients requiring pegfilgrastim following cancer chemotherapy, the use of an OBI was considered to be a safe option to reduce the need for outpatient visits that restrict their activities of daily living.

Abstract
A 70 year-old woman on adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer developed acute aortitis after receiving pegfilgrastim. 12 days after pegfilgrastim administration, she presented to our hospital with fever and shoulder pain. White blood cell count and C-reactive protein were elevated. As the computed tomography scan revealed thickening of the walls of the aortic arch and surrounding arteries, we suspected granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-related aortitis. Although steroid treatment administered once improved the general condition, her symptoms and C-reactive protein worsened again. On increasing the steroid dose, her general condition recovered rapidly. On day 85, Stanford type A aortic dissection was incidentally detected by a follow-up computed tomography scan. Physicians should recognize these adverse events of filgrastim.

Abstract
Although various first- to third-line HER2-targeted therapies have been established, the optimal sequence after third-line therapy has not been determined yet. Here, we describe seven patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who underwent bevacizumab (BV) and paclitaxel (PTX) combination therapy after several HER2-targeted therapies. Re-biopsy of metastatic sites was performed on four patients during the treatment prior to BV + PTX; three patients presented the same HER2-positive status as that of the primary tumor and two of whom achieved partial response. Four of seven patients achieved partial response and a 10-month median progression-free survival. Therefore, bevacizumab combined with paclitaxel is potentially effective in the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer, if standard HER2-targeted therapy fails.

Abstract
Predicting pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in breast cancer patients is important for selecting optimal therapeutics and implementing risk reduction strategies. However, PGV risk factors and the performance of prediction methods in the Japanese population remain unclear. We investigated clinicopathological risk factors using the Tyrer‐Cuzick (TC) breast cancer risk evaluation tool to predict BRCA PGVs in unselected Japanese breast cancer patients (n = 1,995). Eleven breast cancer susceptibility genes were analyzed using target‐capture sequencing in a previous study; the PGV prevalence in BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 was 0.75%, 3.1%, and 0.45%, respectively. Significant associations were found between the presence of BRCA PGVs and early disease onset, number of familial cancer cases (up to third‐degree relatives), triple‐negative breast cancer patients under the age of 60, and ovarian cancer history (all P < .0001). In total, 816 patients (40.9%) satisfied the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines for recommending multigene testing. The sensitivity and specificity of the NCCN criteria for discriminating PGV carriers from noncarriers were 71.3% and 60.7%, respectively. The TC model showed good discrimination for predicting BRCA PGVs (area under the curve, 0.75; 95% confidence interval, 0.69‐0.81). Furthermore, use of the TC model with an optimized cutoff of TC score ≥0.16% in addition to the NCCN guidelines improved the predictive efficiency for high‐risk groups (sensitivity, 77.2%; specificity, 54.8%; about 11 genes). Given the influence of ethnic differences on prediction, we consider that further studies are warranted to elucidate the role of environmental and genetic factors for realizing precise prediction.

Abstract
Abstract
BackgroundEribulin (E) is a chemotherapeutic drug that prolongs overall survival (OS) of patients with HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer (AMBC), mainly in multi-line chemotherapy (ChT) or later. However, the effectiveness and optimal scheduling of E remain unclear. We prospectively investigated the impact of E use in 1st- and 2nd-line ChT (early E) for patients with endocrine-resistant AMBC.
Methods In this multi-institutional prospective cohort study, we registered patients with hormone receptor-positive AMBC who relapsed during or within 6 months after ending adjuvant endocrine therapy, were refractory to at least one previous endocrine therapy, or patients with triple negative AMBC. The endpoints were 1st-line OS (OS1), 2nd-line OS (OS2), and 3rd-line OS (OS3), defined as the time from the start of treatment to death. In addition, the time from the start of 1st-line ChT to death was also analyzed for 2nd-line and 3rd-line ChT groups. In addition to E therapy, oral FU-based therapies (FU) and anthracycline or taxane-based therapies (A/T) were also analyzed (ClinicalTrial.gov number, NCT02551263).
Results Between June 2015 and July 2017, a total of 201 patients were enrolled, and full analysis was conducted for 180 patients. The median OS1, OS2, and OS3 of all patients was 2.69, 1.74, and 1.13 years, respectively. Major patient characteristics are described in the Table. Concurrent or maintenance endocrine therapy was used by 14.9%, 31.6%, and 12.9% of patients receiving E, FU and A/T in 1st-line ChT, respectively. The median OS of patients using E was OS1: 2.25 years (N=47), OS2: 1.75 years (N=70) and OS3: 0.94 years (N=16). The median OS of patients using A/T was OS1: 2.60 years (N=70), OS2: 1.69 years (N=44) and OS3: 0.96 years (N=49). The median OS of patients using FU was OS1: 3.49 years (N=57), OS2: 2.33 years (N=27), and OS3: 1.45 years (N=24). The time from the start of 1st-line ChT to death was 2.58 and 3.18 years among patients who received E in 2nd- and 3rd-line ChT, respectively. Multivariate analysis of patients who used 1st-line and 2nd-line E demonstrated that higher LDH (≥300) (HR 3.50, 95% CI 1.78-6.73; p<0.001), brain metastasis (HR 2.64, 95% CI 1.02-6.83; p=0.045) and smoker (HR 2.33, 95% CI 1.20-4.53; p=0.013) were associated with shorter OS. Overall, OS data for E were comparable to those for A/T. While OS tended to be better for FU, patient characteristics for 1st-line ChT showed that FU was often used for patients with less aggressive AMBC. We also present data on second progression-free survival and new metastasis-free survival, prognostic factor analysis and prognostic factor-adjusted comparison, and predictive factor analysis for early E.
Conclusions This prospective observational study of AMBC patients showed that E and A/T had similar survival outcomes in each treatment line. While FU led to relatively longer survival, it was often used for patients with less aggressive AMBC. Analysis data on survival outcomes will also be presented.

Abstract
The genetic and clinical characteristics of breast tumors with germline variants, including their association with biallelic inactivation through loss-of-heterozygosity (LOH) and second somatic mutations, remain elusive. We analyzed germline variants of 11 breast cancer susceptibility genes for 1,995 Japanese breast cancer patients, and identified 101 (5.1%) pathogenic variants, including 62 BRCA2 and 15 BRCA1 mutations. Genetic analysis of 64 BRCA1/2-mutated tumors including TCGA dataset tumors, revealed an association of biallelic inactivation with more extensive deletions, copy neutral LOH, gain with LOH and younger onset. Strikingly, TP53 and RB1 mutations were frequently observed in BRCA1- (94%) and BRCA2- (9.7%) mutated tumors with biallelic inactivation. Inactivation of TP53 and RB1 together with BRCA1 and BRCA2, respectively, involved LOH of chromosomes 17 and 13. Notably, BRCA1/2 tumors without biallelic inactivation were indistinguishable from those without germline variants. Our study highlights the heterogeneity and unique clonal selection pattern in breast cancers with germline variants. Yukiko Inagaki-Kawata et al. report an analysis of germline variants in breast cancer susceptibility genes in 1,995 Japanese breast cancer patients. They find that 5.1% of the patients carry germline variants in cancer-linked genes and investigate the characteristics of patients with germline mutations in BRCA1/2.

Abstract
Background Breast angiosarcoma (AS) is a rare malignant breast tumor arising from endothelial cells lining the blood vessels. The prognosis of AS is reportedly poor. However, the effectiveness of chemotherapy and radiation is still controversial. Surgery is the only curable treatment, and removal of AS with adequate surgical margin is important. Case presentation We report two cases of primary and radiation-induced breast angiosarcoma (AS) after performing breast conserving surgery (BCS) for breast cancer. In case 1, a 72-year-old woman underwent right BCS with adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) for breast cancer 5 years prior. She was diagnosed with AS of the right breast and underwent mastectomy with a wide skin resection of the breast. As the tumor cells were positive for c-myc, this tumor was diagnosed as a radiation-induced AS. In case 2, an 80-year-old woman underwent BCS without adjuvant RT. She was diagnosed with AS 3 years after BCS and underwent mastectomy with a wide skin resection of the breast. The tumor was diagnosed to be a primary AS because there were no episodes of RT or lymphedema. Both cases developed local recurrence within 1 year of surgery. Conclusion Our cases suggest that surgical margin is associated with the risk of local recurrence, and the difficulty of deciding a safe surgical margin should be set during preoperative diagnosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer risk models are used to predict the risk of carrying a variant, for one of the most common breast cancer susceptibility genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2, and the lifetime risk of developing breast cancer. The prediction of harboring a germline variant of the BRCA gene and the development of breast or ovarian cancer over time affects the decision-making for undergoing genetic testing and screening using imaging techniques as the common practice. For instance, the American Cancer Society and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recommends screening using MRI in women with 20% or greater lifetime risk of having breast cancer. We aimed to investigate the prediction of these risks in Japanese women, particularly on the relationship between the presence of pathogenic germline variants and breast cancer susceptibility genes, using a cohort of 1016 primary breast cancer patients.
Patients and Methods: We analyzed a cohort of Japanese patients with primary breast cancer who were treated at the Kyoto University Hospital and the related institutions or hospitals from the period of 2011 to 2016. The germline variants were examined for a set of 13 breast cancer susceptibility genes, using targeted-capture sequencing of pooled DNA, and it was found that 66 out of 1016 patients had pathogenic variants. These included 11 functionally well-established genes (BRCA1, BRCA2, TP53, PTEN, CDH1, STK11, NF1, PALB2, ATM, CHEK2, and NBN) and two additional genes (BARD1 and BRIP1), which are recommended for the screening of high-risk patients with hereditary breast cancer in the NCCN guidelines. Using this cohort, we studied the association of the calculated risk of carrying a germline variant of BRCA1/ BRCA2, using the Tyrer-Cuzick model Breast Cancer Risk Evaluation Tool, within the laboratory germline test results.
Results: Pathogenic germline variants of BRCA1/ BRCA2 were carried by 54 (5.3%) out of the 1016 patients (12 cases of BRCA1 and 42 cases of BRCA2). According to the NCCN guidelines, which focus on Genetic/ Familial High-Risk Assessment: Breast and Ovarian, it was found that 500 out of 1016 (49.2%)patients were categorized for considering germline testing. In fact, 38 (7.6%) of the 500 patients, harbored a pathogenic germline variant of BRCA1/ BRCA2. In the remaining 516 patients, 16 (3.1%) harbored the pathogenic germline variant of BRCA1/ BRCA2. The predictive risks of the Tyrer-Cuzick model Breast Cancer Risk Evaluation Tool were recorded as follows: Area under the ROC curve, BRCA1 (area 0.750, 95% CI- 0.581-0.919), BRCA2 (area 0.741, 95% CI- 0.661-0.820), BRCA1 or BRCA2 (Area 0.749, 95% CI: 0.675-0.822), suggesting that the Tyrer-Cuzick model may be useful for the Japanese population. In the mammography breast density analysis, 484 patients showed almost entirely fat or scattered fibroglandular breast tissue, and 362 cases had heterogeneous or extreme fibroglandular breast tissue. In this study, the correlations of breast tissue density with age and breast or ovarian cancer familial history have been reported in greater detail.
Discussion and Conclusions: In a retrospective cohort of 1016 Japanese patients with primary breast cancer, 5.3% had pathogenic germline variants of BRCA1/ BRCA2. In a group recommended by NCCN guidelines for considering genetic testing, the BRCA1/ BRCA2 variant rate was 7.6%. Predictive risks calculated by the Tyrer-Cuzick model similar with the known data. Further data are reported.

Abstract
AIM We investigated the efficacy and safety of preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)with a nanoparticle albumin- bound paclitaxel(nab-PTX)-containing regimen. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-eight female patients with Stage Ⅰ-Ⅲ breast cancer received nab-PTX(260mg/m / 2,q3w)±trastuzumab followed by FEC(5-fluorouracil 500 mg/m2 plus epiru- bicin 75 or 100mg/m / 2 plus cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2: q3w)between June 2013 and January 2015. Patients with HER2- positive breast cancer received trastuzumab concurrently with nab-PTX. Clinical response, pathological complete response (pCR), and adverse events were evaluated. RESULTS The overall pCR rate was 32%. The pCR rates for each subtype were as follows: HER2-type 86%, Luminal B-HER2 20%, triple-negative 17%, and Luminal B 0%. HER2-type breast cancer demon- strated the best response to this regimen. The clinical response rate for nab-PTX was 64%(18/28), and the safety profile was tolerable. CONCLUSION nab-PTX±trastuzumab followed by FEC as NAC is effective and safe for operative breast cancer, especially HER2-type breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have developed a surgical glove (SG)-compression therapy and reported that this method significantly reduced the overall occurrence of grade 2 or higher nanoparticle albumin-bound-paclitaxel (nab-PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy (PN) from 76.1% to 21.4%. In this multicenter single-arm confirmatory study, we investigated the efficacy and safety of SG-compression therapy for the prevention of nab-PTX-induced PN, compared with the incidence of grade 2 or higher PN in published literature as controls. PATIENTS AND METHODS Primary breast cancer patients who received 260 mg/m2 of nab-PTX were eligible for this study. Patients wore two SGs (one size smaller than the tight-fitting size) in each hand for 90 min. PN was evaluated at each treatment cycle using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 and the Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire (PNQ). The temperature of each fingertip was measured using thermography. RESULTS Between October 2016 and June 2017, 58 patients were evaluated. The incidence of CTCAE grade 2 or higher PN was as low as 13.8% following SG-compression therapy. A goodness-of-fit test proved that the overall incidence of 13.8% grade 2 or higher PN in this study was comparable to the hypothesis-predicted value (13%). No adverse events, including compression intolerance or skin disorders caused by use of SG, were observed. SG-compression therapy significantly reduced the temperature of each fingertip by 1.3°C-2.3 °C compared to pre-chemotherapy level. CONCLUSIONS This study suggested the safety and efficacy of SG-compression therapy for the amelioration of CIPN. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER UMIN 000024836.

Abstract
501 Background: Oxaliplatin (l-OHP) is a key drug commonly used in primary and metastatic colorectal cancer treatment. However, l-OHP is associated with non-hematological adverse effects, including peripheral neuropathy (PN). About 90% of patients who received l-OHP experience PN after single dose of l-OHP and PN is likely to be negatively associated with quality of life. There is no established effective prophylactic management for chemotherapy induced PN according to the 2014 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) guideline. Recently, compression of hands during injection of drugs has been reported to be effective for chemotherapy induced PN. We developed new gloves for compression therapy which are reusable and low cost. We prospectively analyzed the safety of the gloves. Methods: Patients who received l-OHP were eligible for this phase Ⅰ study. Wrist and hand size were measured and appropriate size of gloves were selected. The pressure of hands is estimated as 20-33 hPa. Patients start to wear the gloves on both hands, from 30 min before the injection of l-OHP until 30 min after the injection. Peripheral neuropathy was evaluated at each treatment cycle using common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE) version 4.0. Results: Between October 2017 and August 2018, fourteen patients (median age 66 years [range 39– 79years], 7 male and 7 female) were enrolled and were evaluated. No patients withdrew from this study. No safety concerns were identified for any safety variables assessed during the trial. CTCAE grade 2 or higher sensory PN was observed in four (28.6%) patients. The average time until grade 1 or more neuropathy appeared was 27.8 days and average dose of l-OHP was 225mg. Conclusions: Compression therapy by the new gloves had no safety concerns, demonstrating a profile favorable for further development for prevention of oxaliplatin induced PN. Clinical trial information: 000029671.

Abstract
Background: This phase II study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the chemotherapy combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine in taxane-pretreated Japanese metastatic breast cancer patients. Methods: In this multicenter, phase II, single-arm study, patients with recurrent or metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer were administered gemcitabine (1,200 mg/m2) and vinorelbine (25 mg/m2) intravenously on days 1 and 8 every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate, and other endpoints included progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. Results: A total of 42 patients were enrolled in this study. The objective response rate and clinical benefit rate were 24 and 43%, respectively. The median progression-free survival was 4.0 months. The median overall survival was 11.1 months. Grade 3/4 neutropenia was the most common hematologic toxicity, occurring in 22 patients (54%). Nonhematologic toxicity was moderate and transient, with fatigue (48%) being the most common condition and no severe adverse event reported. Conclusion: The combination of gemcitabine and vinorelbine is an effective and tolerable regimen for HER2-negative, taxane-pretreated, metastatic breast cancer patients in Japan.

Abstract
Abstract
PURPOSE: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is an adverse effect of many commonly used chemotherapeutic agents, including taxanes. However, there is currently no established effective prophylactic management for CIPN. Thus, we investigated the efficacy of using surgical glove (SG) compression therapy to prevent nanoparticle albumin-bound-paclitaxel (nab-PTX)-induced peripheral neuropathy.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with primary and recurrent breast cancer who received 260 mg/m2 of nab-PTX were eligible for this case-control study. The patients wore two SGs of the same size, that is, one size smaller than the size that fit, on their dominant hand for 90 minutes. They did not wear SGs on the non-dominant hand, which served as the control hand. Peripheral neuropathy was evaluated at each treatment cycle using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 and the Patient Neurotoxicity Questionnaire (PNQ). The temperatures of each fingertip of the compression SG-protected and control hands were measured by using thermography.
RESULTS: Between August 2013 and January 2016, 43 patients were enrolled, and 42 were evaluated. As shown in Table 1, the overall occurrence of ≥grade 2 sensory and motor peripheral neuropathy according to the CTCAE was significantly lower in the SG-protected hands than in the control hands (76.1% vs. 21.4% and 57.1% vs. 26.2%, respectively, p < 0.0001). The PNQ results showed that the incidence of ≥grade 4 neuropathy was significantly higher in the control hands than in the SG-protected hands in terms of both sensory and motor neurotoxicity (p < 0.0001, Table 2). As the treatment cycles of nab-PTX increased, the mean CTCAE and PNQ grades of the control hands gradually increased. However, the SG-protected hands maintained significantly lower mean grades than the control hands over time (p < 0.0001).
No patients withdrew from this study because they could not tolerate the compression from the SGs. The mean temperature of each fingertip significantly decreased (1.42–2.60 °C) in the SG-protected hands compared to in the control hands.
CONCLUSIONS: SG compression therapy appears effective for reducing nab-PTX-induced peripheral neuropathy. The nab-PTX exposure to the peripheral nerve may be decreased because the SG decreases microvascular flow to the fingertip.

Abstract
The CLEOPATRA trial reported the survival benefit of pertuzumab with trastuzumab plus docetaxel in HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients. However, there are a few case reports concerning the effects of a pertuzumab-containing regimen on brain metastases. A 55-year-old woman, who underwent curative surgery for breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy 5 years previously, developed repeated solitary brain metastasis in her right occipital lobe. Whole brain radiation therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery and 3 times of surgical resection were performed. Lapatinib and capecitabine plus tamoxifen were administered. The metastasis recurred in the stump of the previous surgery. Pertuzumab with trastuzumab plus docetaxel was initiated as second-line chemotherapy. A complete response of the brain metastasis was achieved, which persisted for 5 months. Pertuzumab with trastuzumab plus docetaxel was effective in reducing the brain metastases from breast cancer. Further studies are warranted to confirm the effect of this regimen on brain metastases.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS It is not clear how lymphatic pathways to the sentinel lymph node (SLN) change during neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for breast cancer. METHODS Using the indocyanine green (ICG)-fluorescence method, we compared lymphatic pathways to the SLN (sentinel lymphatic pathways) and SLN location before and after NAC in 36 patients (38 breasts). RESULTS Despite that 42.8% of the sentinel lymphatic pathways were changed by NAC, the locations of the SLNs were not affected by NAC. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the true SLN can be detected even after NAC, and that SLNB can be performed after NAC for clinically node-negative patients.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) analogue plus an aromatase inhibitor following failure to respond to standard LH-RH analogue plus tamoxifen (TAM) in premenopausal patients. Premenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and/or progesterone-receptor positive, advanced or recurrent breast cancer refractory to an LH-RH analogue plus TAM received goserelin (GOS) in conjunction with anastrozole (ANA). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) and safety. Between September 2008 and November 2010, 37 patients were enrolled. Thirty-five patients (94.6%) had ER-positive tumors, and 36 (97.3%) had human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) 2-negative tumors. Thirty-six (97.3%) had measurable lesions and 1 (2.7%) had only bone metastasis. The ORR was 18.9% [95% confidence interval (CI), 8.0–35.2%], the CBR was 62.2% (95% CI, 44.8–77.5%) and the median PFS was 7.3 months. Eight patients had adverse drug reactions but none resulted in discontinuation of treatment. GOS plus ANA is a safe effective treatment for premenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive, recurrent or advanced breast cancer. The treatment may become viable treatment in the future, particularly when TAM is ineffective or contraindicated. Further studies and discussion are warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The current standard treatment of primary systemic therapy (PST) in HER2 positive breast cancer is anthracyclines (A) and/or taxanes combined with trastuzumab (H) which demonstrates high pathological complete response (pCR). The pCR is considered as a predictive marker of prognosis although results are slightly different depending on the hormone receptor status. We conducted a randomized phase II study to examine sequence of treatments and necessity of A in the treatments using TCH to improve outcome and reduce cardiac toxicity in Japanese HER2 positive pts.
Methods: Pts were treated with FEC (5FU 500 mg/m2, epirubicin 100 mg/m2, cyclophosphamide 500 mg/m2) and/or TCH (docetaxel 75 mg/m2, cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2, H 6 mg/kg, loading by 8 mg) in 3 groups: 4 cycles of FEC followed by 4 cycles of TCH (A-TCH); 4 cycles of TCH followed by 4 cycles of FEC (TCH-A) or 6 cycles of TCH. An unplanned interim analysis was conducted due to one death by interstitial lung disease (ILD) in the A-TCH after completion of 8 cycles. The pCR results suggested A containing regimens did not exceed benefit from the current standard regimen. The study was continued by limiting allocation only to the TCH group considering efficacy and safety. The primary endpoint was pCR and secondary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR) and safety.
Results: A total of 103 pts were enrolled between Sep. 2009 and Sep. 2011; 21 pts in the A-TCH, 22 pts in the TCH-A and 60 pts in the TCH including pts enrolled after termination of random allocation. Characteristics of the 103 pts were; median age of 54 (range, 33–70), median tumor size of 35 mm (range, 12–80), 42 pts with N(+) (40.8%) and 62 ER positive pts (60.2%). Characteristics of pts in the TCH were; median age of 54.5 (range, 33–67), median tumor size of 35.5 mm (range, 12–80), 25 pts with N(+) (41.7%) and 34 ER positive pts (56.7%). No major difference was reported between groups treated with or without A. Per protocol population was 59 pts in the TCH and its pCR rate was 45.8% (95% CI, 32.2–59.3: ER negative, 61.5%; ER positive, 33.3%). ORR was 86.4% assessed by MRI or CT. Although it is an exploratory analysis, the pCR rate of A containing regimens was 39.0% (ER negative, 57.1%; ER positive, 29.6%). Adverse events ≥grade 3 were reported in 50 pts (48.5%). Reported ILD was in 5 pts (A-TCH, 1; TCH-A, 1; TCH, 3). The mean left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) decreased from 70.0% to 69.0% after treatment (A-TCH, 65.9%; TCH-A, 70.4%; TCH, 69.0%). Decrease of LVEF in the A-TCH was significant (p < 0.01).
Conclusion: The pCR rate of the TCH group was similar to previous reports on A including regimens. Although ILD had been occurred during the treatment containing the TCH, no other new safety issues were reported. We were not able to conclude preferable sequence of A and T since statistical power was not sufficient. However, the result of LVEF suggested TCH followed by A or TCH were preferable. Six cycles of TCH could be one of treatment options as a PST in HER2 positive breast cancer to exclude A. (UMIN000002365)

Abstract
192 Background: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has been regarded as curable with resection, but axillary lymph node metastases have been reported in 2% of DCIS patients. Even when DCIS has been diagnosed by preoperative core needle biopsy (CNB), 8% to 38% of the patients have been found to have invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) on the basis of pathological diagnosis after surgical treatment. The indication of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for DCIS is still controversial. Methods: SLNB is a standard surgical technique for early breast cancer treatment, and indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence method is remarkable in terms of the visualization of lymphatic flow. We analyzed the variation in lymphatic drainage routes from the nipple to the SLN (sentinel lymphatic routes) by using the ICG florescence method in early breast cancer patients and investigated the effects on the localization of the tumor to the sentinel lymphatic routes after BCS. Results: From November 2010 to April 2012, we recorded the sentinel lymphatic routes in 118 patients. All the routes passed through the upper outer quadrant (UOQ) area, and there were more than 2 routes in 53 cases. Of these routes, 73% passed through only the UOQ area and 27% passed through the UOQ via the upper inner, lower inner, and/or lower outer quadrant area. Conclusions: We should confirm the sentinel lymphatic routes by using the ICG florescence method before BCS for preoperatively diagnosed DCIS. If the lymphatic routes do not pass over the extent of resection of BCS, we can omit SLNB in the first surgical treatment and await the final pathological result. However, we should perform SLNB in addition to BCS in cases in which the lymphatic routes pass over the tumor in the region except the UOQ area.

Abstract
164 Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is a standard therapy for breast cancer. However, the changes in the lymphatic route to the sentinel lymph node (SLN) before and after NAC are unclear. Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence method of SLN biopsy (ICG-SLNB) is useful because of its high identification rate of the SLN and ability to visualize lymphatic routes. Using ICG-SLNB, we compared the lymphatic routes to the SLN (sentinel lymphatic routes) before and after NAC and investigated whether chemotherapy affects the sentinel lymphatic routes. Methods: From October 2010 to April 2012 20 patients received NAC. In 13 cases of clinical node-negative cancer, we performed SLNB before NAC. We recorded the sentinel lymphatic routes before NAC and confirmed the routes at surgery after NAC by using the same method. In 7 cases of clinical node-positive cancer, we recorded the localization of SLN and lymphatic routes by using the ICG fluorescence method before NAC. After NAC, we performed SLNB with axillary dissection and recorded the sentinel lymphatic routes by photography and drawing. Results: Regardless of the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis, the SLN and sentinel lymphatic routes could be detected before and after NAC in all cases. All sentinel lymphatic routes reached the same location of the SLN before and after NAC. In 3 cases, the number of sentinel lymphatic routes had increased after NAC, but the location of the SLN was the same before and after NAC. Other cases showed no changes in the sentinel lymphatic routes. In clinical node-positive cases of pathological complete response, there was no metastasis to the SLN, but there were 2 metastases in the lymph nodes after back-up dissection. Conclusions: ICG fluorescence method provided visual confirmation that the sentinel lymphatic routes were not affected by NAC. This result suggests that SLNB after NAC can be used to safely and positively identify the SLN in clinical node-negative patients. Further investigation would be required to safely perform SLNB after NAC in clinical node-positive patients.

Abstract
Chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis is a common adverse event in breast cancer patients. Breakdown of the mucosal barrier predisposes the patient to bacterial, fungal and viral superinfection, especially candidiasis. We demonstrated the frequency of chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis and oral candidiasis, and the efficacy of antimycotic agents in breast cancer patients. We investigated 32 patients with advanced and metastatic breast cancer who underwent chemotherapy in our department from March, 2009 to August, 2010. The chemotherapy regimens were as follows: FEC (epirubicin/5-FU/cyclophosphamide) followed by taxanes: 21, FEC: 1, TC (docetaxel/cyclophosphamide): 7, DOC (docetaxel): 3, and CPT-11/S-1: 1. Patients had blood and bacteria tests of the oral cavity at the time mucositis symptoms appeared. We administered an antimycotic agent (itraconazole) and evaluated its effect on mucositis at the time mucositis symptoms appeared. 56. 3% of patients had chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis, and 38. 9% of the mucositis patients had oral candidiasis. The incidence of mucositis increased when severe neutropenia occurred. 92. 9% of mucositis patients were cured or improved by itraconazole. In conclusion, chemotherapy caused oral candidiasis in 40% of cases with oral mucositis, and in about 56% of breast cancer patients. The antimycotic agent may be useful for chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
588 Background: The aim was to provide an endocrine therapy option against advanced (ABC) or recurrent breast cancer (RBC) in premenopausal women. We conducted an exploratory phase II trial in combination with an LH-RH analogue (LH-RHa) and an aromatase inhibitor (AI) to assess the efficacy and tolerability after failure of standard LH-RHa plus tamoxifen (TAM). Methods: Premenopausal patients (pts) with ER+ and/or PgR+ ABC or RBC refractory to LH-RHa + TAM were treated with LH-RHa (goserelin: GOS) and AI (anastrozole: ANA). The primary endpoint was an objective response rate (ORR). Secondary endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), clinical benefit rate (CBR) based on RECIST, and safety assessed using CTCAE ver. 3.0. Pts with only bone legions were assessed using the criteria by Japanese Breast Cancer Society (14th Ed.). Local assessment (CR, PR or long SD of 24 weeks or longer) was confirmed independently by two radiologists. Results: Between September 2008 and November 2010, 37 pts were enrolled at 10 clinical institutions in Japan. Eleven had recurrence either during, or within one year after the end of adjuvant GOS + TAM (including GOS + TAM followed by only TAM). The disease progressed in 26 women during GOS + TAM. Mean age and BMI were 43.5 years and 22.2 kg/m2, respectively. Thirty-five pts (94.6%) were ER+, and 36 pts (97.3%) were HER2- (one with unknown HER2 status). Non-endocrine treatment included chemotherapy (20 pts; 54%) and radiation therapy (13 pts; 35%). The viscera, soft tissue, and bones were treated in 17, 15 and 14 pts, respectively. Pts with both measurable lesions and bone metastasis, measurable lesions only, and only bone metastasis were 21 (57%), 15 (41%) and 1 (2%), respectively. ORR was 18.9% (95%CI: 8.0-35.2%, 1 CR and 6 PR cases), CBR 62.2% (23 pts, 95%CI: 44.8-77.5%), and median PFS was 7.2 months. Eight pts (21.6%) had adverse events, but none resulted in treatment discontinuation. GOS + ANA was well tolerated. Conclusions: LH-RHa (GOS) + ANA can be a subsequent endocrine treatment for premenopausal pts with ABC or RBC after failure of GOS + TAM.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) has been extensively characterized in cancer biological research. However, the role of Cav-1 in the interaction between tumor and stromal cells remains unclear. In the present study, we examined Cav-1 expression in tumor cells and stromal cells in breast cancer tissue by immunohistochemical analysis and evaluated its prognostic value in a training cohort. Immunohistochemical analysis of Cav-1 expression was scored as (++), (+) or (-) according to the proportion of positively stained tumor cells (T) and stromal cells (S). Correlation analysis between tumor/stromal Cav-1 expression and clinicopathological parameters revealed that only T(++) Cav-1 status was positively associated with tumor size and histological nodal status (P = 0.019 and 0.021, respectively). Univariate analysis revealed that combined T(++)/S(-) status was significantly correlated with unfavorable prognostic outcomes (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that this combined status is an independent prognostic factor for primary breast cancer (P = 0.002). Clinical outcomes in different subgroups of breast cancer patients were also strictly dependent on this combined status (P < 0.05). The prognostic value of T(++)/S(-) Cav-1 status was also validated in the testing cohort. Collectively, our data indicate that high Cav-1 expression in tumor cells and lack of this expression in stromal cells could help identify a particular subgroup of breast cancer patients with potentially poor survival. Further studies are required to understand the regulatory mechanism of Cav-1 in the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
We investigated 30 patients with advanced and metastatic breast cancer who underwent capecitabine therapy in our department from July, 2004 to April, 2009. Patients' backgrounds: 35-82 years of age (median, 62 years of age). Performance status (PS): 0 approximately 1 in 21 cases, PS:2 in 7 cases and PS:3 in 2 cases. 63% of patients were positive ER and/or PgR, and 33. 3% were positive HER2. Of these patients, 17 had bone, 15 lymph node, 13 lung, 7 liver, and 4 skin metastasis. The capecitabine response in these patients was evaluated as follows: partial response (PR) in 9, stable disease (SD)in 6, long SD in 4, and progressive disease(PD)in 11, indicating a response rate(RR)of 30% and a clinical benefit rate (CBR) of 43. 3%. In comparison with after third-line treatment, capecitabine proved more effective as first or second-line treatment. Interestingly, the capecitabine response in HER2 negative-expressing patients, especially in HR(+)/HER2(-)subgroup, was significantly better than that in HER2-over-expressing patients. The soft tissue lesions(primary tumor and metastasis of skin and lymph nodes)showed a significantly better response to capecitabine treatment than other metastases such as lung, liver and bone. There was a significant difference in the response rate between soft tissue metastasis (lymph nodes, skin and primary tumor)and other types of metastasis (lung, liver, and bone). Finally, it was suggested that use of capecitabine in upfront line for HER2-negative expressing cases or soft tissue metastatic cases contributed to the prolongation of time to treatment failure(TTF)and overall survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mitochondrion acts as a pivotal decision center in many types of apoptotic responses. To clarify the effects of the enhanced mitochondrial function on tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNFalpha)-induced apoptosis, we studied hepatic injuries in transgenic mice whose livers express creatine kinase (CK). METHODS Mice fed a diet containing 10% creatine, came to accumulate phosphocreatine and to enhance hepatic ATP levels and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation activities. TNFalpha-mediated hepatic apoptosis in normally fed and Cr-feeding CK transgenic mice were assessed. RESULTS TNFalpha and actinomycin D cause severe liver failure in normally fed transgenic mice, and in the wild-type mice. In contrast, no significant elevations in transaminase levels after injection were observed in Cr feeding transgenic mice. The disruption of the mitochondrial transmembrane potential at 2 h after TNFalpha injection, prior to ATP depletion, activation of caspase 3 like protease, and DNA fragmentation at 4-6 h after injection, were observed in normally fed transgenic mice. These were fully suppressed in Cr feeding transgenic mice. However, anti-Fas antibody-induced apoptosis was not inhibited in both groups. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that TNFalpha-induced apoptosis was inhibited in CK transgenic mice livers by maintaining mitochondrial function.

Abstract
Xenotransplantation, especially using porcine sources, has been proposed as a means to alleviate the shortage of human organs for transplantation. NK cells appear to be important mediators of the xenogeneic immune responses, including the human anti-pig response. Having previously established the redox regulation of NK cell activity against tumor target cells, we now report that the interaction of human NK cells with porcine target cells is also regulated by redox. Thiol-deprivation strongly diminished the capacity of IL-2-activated human NK cells to kill porcine endothelial cells. This inhibition correlated with reduced proliferation and interferon (IFN)-gamma production by IL-2-activated NK cells. For fresh NK cells, pretreatment with diethyl maleate (DEM), which was used to deplete intracellular thiols, reduced lysis of porcine and human targets. Because many adhesion molecules exhibit interspecies recognition, we further investigated whether changes in expression of adhesion molecules might explain our observations. DEM treatment reduced the expression of CD11b and CD29 on fresh NK cells. Monoclonal antibody blocking studies showed that the combination of mAb to CD11b and CD18 reduced lytic activity against both PAEC as well as K562, although other qualitative differences were observed between the porcine and human target cells. These findings suggest that the oxidative stress-induced downregulation of CD18 may be important in modulating cytotoxic activity of fresh NK cells against PAEC and K562 targets through reduced formation of the CD11b/CD18 heterodimer. Thus, the appropriate manipulation of redox status may provide a means to enhance survival of non-human animal tissues in humans through modulation of adhesion molecule expression/interactions.

Abstract
Endothelial cells (EC) are primary targets of the recipient's immune response to transplanted organs and constitutively express Fas (CD95) ligand (FasL) on their surface. We investigated the role of porcine FasL in the generation of the human anti-pig response in vitro. Porcine aortic endothelial cells (PAEC) lysed a Fas+ human T-cell line, Jurkat. Anti-human Fas monoclonal antibody (mAb) specifically inhibited this killing in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that porcine FasL recognizes and binds human Fas to induce apoptosis of human Fas+ cells. We next cloned porcine FasL, identifying an open reading frame of 849 base pairs predicting a protein of 282 amino acids. The predicted amino acid sequence was 85, 76, and 75% homologous to the predicted amino acid sequences of human, mouse, and rat, respectively, and found that PAEC expressed both FasL mRNA and protein. Transient transfection was used to increase or induce porcine FasL expression in PAEC or COS-7 cells. Transfection of PAEC with a plasmid encoding porcine FasL increased their ability to induce apoptosis in Jurkat cells, fresh human T cells activated with IL-2 and anti-CD3, and fresh IL-2-activated human (natural killer) NK cells. Moreover, porcine Fas L-transfected COS-7 cells induced significant apoptosis in Jurkat cells compared with that induced by mock-transfected COS-7 cells. Finally, the overexpression of porcine FasL in PAEC reduced their susceptibility as target cells to lysis by activated human NK or T cells. These findings suggest that porcine FasL overexpression in EC of vascularized xenografts may provide protection from cellular xenograft rejection.

Abstract
Evidence suggests that NK cells contribute to the pathogenesis of delayed rejection of vascularized xenografts, and NK cells have been suggested to participate in hyperacute xenograft rejection. Endothelial cells have been shown to be the primary target of the recipient's immune responses that mediate both hyperacute and delayed xenograft rejection. Under conditions of oxidative stress induced by thiol deprivation, but not under normal conditions, pretreatment of porcine aortic endothelial cells (PAECs) with the NO donor, S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine, dramatically inhibited killing of PAEC target cells by IL-2-activated human NK cells. This same combined treatment reduced both surface expression and mRNA levels of E-selectin. Moreover, anti-E-selectin mAb, but not Ab to VCAM-1, protected PAEC from lysis by human IL-2-activated NK cells in a dose-dependent manner. These findings suggest that expression of porcine E-selectin is important for the cytotoxicity of PAEC mediated by activated human NK cells and may be involved in the redox-mediated modulation of that cytotoxicity. It is known that NF-kappa B activation is required for transcription of E-selectin, and the current data show that the suppression of E-selectin expression by S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine pretreatment and thiol deprivation was associated with reduced NF-kappa B DNA-binding activity in PAEC. These data suggest that the regulation of porcine E-selectin may be important for modulating delayed xenograft rejection and that manipulation of cellular redox systems may provide a means to protect xenogeneic endothelial cells from NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity.

Abstract
A 57-year-old man had had deformities of all ten fingernails for one and a half years before presentation and deformities of all ten toenails for the previous six months. The surfaces of the nails were rough, with excessive longitudinal striations. The bases of the nails were slightly hypertrophic, and the tips were atrophic and itchy. A longitudinal nail biopsy including the nail matrix revealed the typical histology of lichen planus. Reticulated pigmentation, maceration, and erosion on the buccal mucous membrane were also discovered. Histological analysis of the buccal mucous membrane revealed lichen planus intermingled with eosinophils. Immunological blood analysis revealed elevated CD4+ T cells and CD4/CD8 ratio. He worked as a tinsmith and had dental metal. The metal series patch test revealed positive reactions to chromate and tin. Treatment with systemic steroids was quite effective in treating the nail lesions.

Abstract
Liver metastasis of primary tumor is a clinically major problem. KRN7000, an alpha-galactosylceramide, significantly augments natural killer (NK) activity of spleen cells and shows strong antitumor activity in mice with lung metastasis of melanoma B16 cells. To test whether KRN7000 has an antitumor activity in mice with hepatic metastasis of tumors, we examined the effect of KRN7000 on NK activity of hepatic mononuclear cells (MNC) and the antitumor activity in mice with liver metastasis of EL-4 cells. The in vivo administration of KRN7000 significantly augmented NK activity of hepatic MNC and inhibited tumor growth of EL-4 cells in the liver more markedly than chemotherapeutic agents, leading to a relatively high rate of cured mice. In addition, it appeared that the KRN7000 treatment is effective in mice with established EL-4 tumors. Moreover, we found that KRN7000 can produce significant amounts of interleukin 2 (IL-2), IL-4, IL-12, and interferon-gamma in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that KRN7000 will be useful for the treatment of cancer liver metastasis.

Abstract
We previously reported that the culture supernatant of the human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV-I) infected-T-cell line--ATL-2--included factor(s), which had an inhibitory effect on epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated proliferation of primary cultured rat hepatocytes. After crude purification, we arbitrarily named it hepatocyte growth inhibitory factor (HGI). In this study, we further purified HGI and determined its amino acid sequence. For purification, we used 4-steps column chromatography and SDS-PAGE. The purified proteins consisted of two bands of 20 and 27 kDa in SDS-PAGE analysis. Protein extracted from each band had an inhibitory effect on rat hepatocyte growth. Amino acid analysis of the purified 20 kDa band revealed that the 34 amino acids were identical to those of IL-6. The inhibitory effect of the factor was neutralized by an anti IL-6 neutralizing antibody. Using Western blot analysis of HGI, an anti IL-6 antibody recognized both 20 and 27 kDa bands. Consequently HGI was determined to be identical to IL-6, which occurred in higher levels in the sera of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) patients.

Abstract
Redox processes have been implicated in various biologic processes, including signal transduction, gene expression, and cell proliferation, and several molecules have been identified as redox regulators in cell activation. Glutathione is the oldest and most investigated molecule among them. Although details of the mechanisms by which glutathione regulates various aspects of cell biology remains to be characterized, the relationship between immunodeficiency and cellular glutathione status is well established. Redox dysregulation contributes to the pathogenesis of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected rhesus macaques have, on the average, significantly decreased plasma cysteine and intracellular glutathione levels. Liver contains abundant levels of reducing factors. However, glutathione levels in serum and peripheral blood mononuclear cells of cirrhosis patients are lower compared to values detected in healthy individuals. In the present article, the significance of glutathione in regulating the functions of lymphocytes, especially those of liver-associated lymphocytes, has been described. A novel strategy for immune therapy of liver neoplasms with the use of redox-modulating agents has been proposed.

Abstract
Liver cirrhosis, which is associated with decreased plasma and hepatic glutathione (GSH), has been reported to cause the suppression of NK activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Since low GSH levels in lymphocytes are known to alter lymphocyte function, we examined the correlation between intracellular GSH levels and the cytotoxic activity of liver-associated mononuclear cells (liver MNC). We show here that rat liver contains a highly active population of NK cells (CD3- NKR-P1 + cells) that kill Yac-1 in vitro and that the cytotoxic activity of this NK population is directly proportional to liver MNC GSH. This proportionality is independent of the methods used to alter GSH level. Thus, in vitro treatment of liver MNC with buthionine sulfoximine to lower GSH levels lowers the cytotoxic activity. MNC from cirrhotic liver, in which implanted tumor cells grow faster, have both low GSH levels and low cytotoxicity, and supplementation of cirrhotic liver MNC with N-acetylcysteine raises GSH levels and increases cytotoxicity. These findings suggest a physiologic mechanism, i.e. decreased GSH, may be causally associated with the increased incidence of hepatoma in cirrhotic individuals and the increased growth of hepatoma cells in cirrhotic animals. Thus, we suggest that the GSH is important to the optimal functioning of the hepatic immunity that protects against hepatoma development.

Abstract
Eosinophilic inflammation of the airways is believed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma. Inoculation of mice with the nematode Nippostrongylus brasiliensis induces pulmonary inflammation, characterized by a marked infiltration of eosinophils, subsequent to the migration of parasites through the lungs. Infection is associated with polarized Th2 responses in different strains of mice tested. Thus, this model may be useful to determine the relationship between established pulmonary eosinophilic inflammation, Th2 immune responses and airway changes in a nonallergic background. In the present study, we have used IL-5-deficient mice to evaluate the role of IL-5 in eosinophilic lung inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). In wild-type C57B/6 mice, infection with N. brasiliensis resulted in eosinophil accumulation, associated with extensive lung damage characterized by hemorrhage and alveolar wall destruction, and a strong AHR following methacholine treatment. In IL-5-deficient mice, eosinophil infiltration and the associated lung damage was abrogated. Nonetheless, AHR was unimpaired. Our results suggest that eosinophil accumulation plays a central role in lung damage but is not responsible for the induction of airway constriction following N. brasiliensis infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS We have previously reported that human hepatic sinusoidal mononuclear cells may have a higher sensitivity to induction of apoptosis than peripheral blood mononuclear cells. In this study, the effects of two different preservation solutions on the functions of those hepatic mononuclear cells were evaluated in living-related liver transplantation. METHODS Ten and 11 liver grafts were perfused via the portal vein with University of Wisconsin solutions (UW group) and Bretschneider's Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate solutions (HTK group), respectively. Hepatic mononuclear cells were isolated from the effluent preservation solution passing through the graft livers. Cytofluorometry, cytotoxic assay, and DNA analysis were performed. RESULTS There were no significant differences in surface antigens and natural killer activity of hepatic sinusoidal mononuclear cells between the UW and HTK groups. At the time of isolation, the viability of hepatic sinusoidal mononuclear cells in both groups was more than 99%. In the UW group, the viability of hepatic sinusoidal mononuclear cells decreased to 30% through apoptosis in in vitro culture at 48 h after isolation. In the HTK group, however, their viability was maintained at more than 90% at 48 h in the same culture conditions, and additional exposure to UW solution ex vivo for 30 min did not induce apoptosis. CONCLUSION Hepatic sinusoidal mononuclear cells isolated from the UW solution, not from the HTK solution, passing through the liver died through apoptosis, which was not induced by each component of the UW solution, but by exposure in situ.

Abstract
To examine the possibility of immunotherapy for activating liver-associated mononuclear cells (liver MNC) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), we evaluated the cytotoxicity of liver MNC and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) in HCC patients and examined how they can be activated by cytokines and how this activation is modulated by reduction/oxidation. Cytotoxicity of liver MNC but not PBMNC in HCC patients was significantly decreased compared with that of controls, despite no alteration in the subpopulation of liver MNC between the two groups. We next measured intracellular glutathione (GSH), which is required for the enhancement of the cytotoxicity by interleukin-2 (IL-2). Intracellular GSH levels of liver MNC in HCC were significantly lower than that of controls. In vitro administration of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) not only restored intracellular GSH levels but also enhanced the IL-2-stimulated cytotoxicity of liver MNC in HCC patients. This suggests that intracellular GSH of liver MNC in HCC may participate in the modulation of cytotoxicity of liver MNC in vitro and that NAC may be effective as an adjunct to immunotherapy for HCC.

Abstract
The antiasthmatic profile of KAA-276 (1-[1-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazole-2-yl]-5-[2-[4-(2- carboxethyl) phenyl]ethyl]-1,5-diazacyclooctane sulfate, CAS 167264-26-8), a newly synthesized histamine H1 receptor antagonist, given by inhalation as an aerosol was investigated and compared with the profiles obtained using other routes of administration. When given by inhalation, or by intravenous or oral routes, KAA-276 inhibited antigen-induced bronchoconstriction in rats with ID50 (a dose to inhibit the antigen-induced response by 50%) values of 0.054%, 1 mg/kg, and 51.2 mg/kg, respectively. KAA-276 prevented the histamine-induced wheal reaction in rats dose-dependently with ID50 values of 0.22% by inhalation, 0.18 mg/kg by the intravenous route, and 2.3 mg/kg by the oral route. To judge from these results, inhaled KAA-276, unlike intravenous or oral KAA-276, had no inhibitory effect on the histamine-induced wheal reaction at a dose (0.054%) that is effective against the antigen-induced airway asthmatic response. Inhaled KAA-276 suppressed antigen-induced bronchoconstriction in actively sensitized guinea pigs, and histamine-induced bronchoconstriction in monkeys. These results suggest that inhalation of KAA-276 would benefit patients with bronchial asthma without inducing unwanted systemic effects.

Abstract
The pharmacological profile of a newly synthesized histamine H1 receptor antagonist, KAA-276 (1-[1-(4-fluorophenylmethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl]-5-12-[4-( 2-carboxyethyl)-phenyl]ethyl]-1,5-diazacyclooctane sulfate), was characterized. In a H1 receptor binding assay in vitro, KAA-276 inhibited [3H]mepyramine binding to guinea pig cerebellar membrane preparations with an IC50 of 0.66 nM. The inhibitory potency of KAA-276 was greater than that of terfenadine, but similar to that of astemizole and ketotifen. KAA-276 antagonized the histamine-induced constriction of ileum and trachea isolated from guinea pigs in a dose-dependent manner with a concomitant reduction in the maximum response. Furthermore, the inhibitory effect of KAA-276 on histamine induced contraction was potentiated depending on the duration of preincubation time and revealed an irreversible property. KAA-276 given orally, intraduodenally, and by inhalation significantly inhibited histamine-induced bronchoconstriction dose-dependently in guinea pigs. Inhalation of KAA-276 exhibited inhibitory activity with a rapid onset and long duration, while intraduodenal administration resulted in action with a slow onset. Therefore, KAA-276, an irreversible and selective histamine H1 receptor antagonist, was shown to be a useful drug for therapeutic strategies against bronchial asthma when administered by the aerosol route.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Changes in oxygen availability modulate replicative responses in several cell types, but the effects on hepatocyte replication remain unclear. We have studied the effects of transient nonlethal hypoxia on epidermal growth factor receptor binding and epidermal growth factor-induced DNA synthesis of rat hepatocytes. METHODS Lactate dehydrogenase activity in culture supernatant, intracellular adenosine triphosphate content, 125I-epidermal growth factor specific binding, epidermal growth factor receptor protein expression, and 3H-thymidine incorporation were compared between hepatocytes cultured in hypoxia and normoxia. RESULTS Hypoxia up to 3 h caused no significant increase in lactate dehydrogenase activity in the culture supernatant, while intracellular adenosine triphosphate content decreased time-dependently and was restored to normoxic levels by reoxygenation (nonlethal hypoxia). Concomitantly, 125I-epidermal growth factor specific binding to hepatocytes decreased time-dependently (to 54.1% of normoxia) and was restored to control levels by reoxygenation, although 125I-insulin specific binding was not affected. The decrease in 125I-epidermal growth factor specific binding was explained by the decrease in the number of available epidermal growth factor receptors (21.37+/-3.08 to 12.16+/-1.42 fmol/10(5) cells), while the dissociation constant of the receptor was not affected. The change in the number of available receptors was not considered to be due to receptor degradation-resynthesis, since immunodetection of the epidermal growth factor receptor revealed that the receptor protein expression did not change during hypoxia and reoxygenation, and since neither actinomycin D nor cycloheximide affected the recovery of 125I-epidermal growth factor binding by reoxygenation. Inhibition of epidermal growth factor-induced DNA synthesis after hypoxia (to 75.4% of normoxia by 3 h hypoxia) paralleled the decrease in 125I-epidermal growth factor binding. CONCLUSIONS Transient hypoxia, which caused no increase in lactate dehydrogenase leakage but affected intracellular adenosine triphosphate levels, did, however, modulate the number of available epidermal growth factor receptors without affecting the receptor protein expression, and inhibit the epidermal growth factor-induced DNA synthesis of hepatocytes. This suggests that even transient nonlethal hypoxia affects the epidermal growth factor-induced DNA synthesis of rat hepatocytes through reversible changes in the epidermal growth factor receptor molecule, which depends on oxygen availability.

Abstract
In this study, we have examined the effect of endothelin (ET) receptor antagonists on lung granulocyte inflammation after antigen challenge in sensitized mice. The antagonists used were BQ-123, an ETA antagonist, BQ-788, an ETB antagonist, and SB209670, an ET(A&B) antagonist. Thirty minutes prior exposure to aerosolized ovalbumin, ET antagonists (50 pmol/mouse) were administered directly into the lungs of sensitized Balb/c mice via the intranasal route. BQ-123 and SB209670 significantly decreased eosinophil number in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid by 47 and 68%, respectively. Both compounds also inhibited neutrophil infiltration into the lungs. In contrast, BQ-788 did not affect granulocyte infiltration. A similar inhibition of lung eosinophilia was also obtained with an anti-ET antibody applied via the intranasal route. BQ-123 and SB209670, but not BQ-788, significantly increased the production of interferon-gamma (Th1 cytokine) from purified lung Thy1.2+ cells without affecting interleukin-4 and interleukin-5 (Th2 cytokines) secretion. Furthermore, neutralizing antibody against interferon-gamma prevented the inhibitory effect of the ETA antagonist. Taken together, these results suggest an important pathophysiologic role for ET in the development of lung inflammation in asthma and highlight the potential of ET antagonists for the treatment of the disease.

Abstract
The recruitment of eosinophils into the airways after allergen exposure is dependent on interleukin (IL) 5 secreted from antigen-specific CD4+ T cells of the T helper cell (Th) 2 subset. However, while it is established that costimulation through CD28 is required for TCR-mediated activation and IL-2 production, the importance of this mechanism for the induction of a Th2 immune response is less clear. In the present study, we administered the fusion protein CTLA-4 immunoglobulin (Ig) into the lungs before allergen provocation to determine whether CD28/CTLA-4 ligands are required for allergen-induced eosinophil accumulation and the production of Th2 cytokines. Administration of CTLA-4 Ig inhibited the recruitment of eosinophils into the lungs by 75% and suppressed IgE in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. CTLA-4 Ig also inhibited the production of IL-4, IL-5, and IL-10 by 70-80% and enhanced interferon-gamma production from CD3-T cell receptor-activated lung Thy1.2+ cells. Allergen exposure upregulated expression of B7-2, but not B7-1, on B cells from the lung within 24 h. Moreover, airway administration of an anti-B7-2 monoclonal antibody (mAb) inhibited eosinophil infiltration, IgE production, and Th2 cytokine secretion comparable in magnitude to that observed with CTLA-4 Ig. Treatment with an anti-B7-1 mAb had a small, but significant effect on eosinophil accumulation, although was less effective in inhibiting Th2 cytokine production. The anti-B7-2, but not anti-B7-1, mAb also inhibited antigen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness in vivo. In all of the parameters assessed, the combination of both the anti-B7-1 and anti-B7-2 mAb was no more effective than anti-B7-2 mAb treatment alone. We propose that strategies aimed at inhibition of CD28 interactions with B7-2 molecules may represent a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of lung mucosal allergic inflammation.

Abstract
Viral infections of the lung have been postulated to be a major factor in the etiology of bronchial asthma, a disease characterized by eosinophilic inflammation of the airways. In addition, upper respiratory tract infection in asthmatic individuals results in an exacerbation of the disease. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which viral infection leads to disease exacerbation are poorly understood. CD8+ T cells play an important role in the host defense responses against viral infection, although to date, there are no reports to suggest that CD8+ T cells play any role in eosinophil recruitment. In the present study, we report that CD8+ T cells activated by either immobilized CD3 mAb or specific antigen can switch to a phenotype that produces Th2 cytokines and secretes less IFN-gamma. Moreover, in vivo, if a lung mucosal Th2 immune response exists, then antigen-specific activation of CD8 cells results in the development of lung eosinophilic inflammation mediated by the secretion of IL-5 from CD8+ T cells. These results may explain the link between viral infections and bronchial asthma, as this IL-4-dependent switch to CD8+ T cells to IL-5 secretion may not only exacerbate asthma by recruiting eosinophils into the lungs, but the impaired IFN-gamma production may also lead to delayed viral clearance.
