Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with immune checkpoint blockers (ICBs) ultimately progress either rapidly (primary resistance) or after durable benefit (secondary resistance). The cancer vaccine OSE2101 may invigorate antitumor-specific immune responses after ICB failure. The objective of ATALANTE-1 was to evaluate its efficacy and safety in these patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS ATALANTE-1 was a two-step open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OSE2101 compared to standard-of-care (SoC) chemotherapy (CT). Patients with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A2-positive advanced NSCLC without actionable alterations, failing sequential or concurrent CT and ICB were randomized (2 : 1) to OSE2101 or SoC (docetaxel or pemetrexed). Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). Interim OS futility analysis was planned as per Fleming design. In April 2020 at the time of interim analysis, a decision was taken to prematurely stop the accrual due to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Final analysis was carried out in all patients and in the subgroup of patients with ICB secondary resistance defined as failure after ICB monotherapy second line ≥12 weeks. RESULTS Two hundred and nineteen patients were randomized (139 OSE2101, 80 SoC); 118 had secondary resistance to sequential ICB. Overall, median OS non-significantly favored OSE2101 over SoC {hazard ratio (HR) [95% confidence interval (CI)] 0.86 [0.62-1.19], P = 0.36}. In the secondary resistance subgroup, OSE2101 significantly improved median OS versus SoC [11.1 versus 7.5 months; HR (95% CI) 0.59 (0.38-0.91), P = 0.017], and significantly improved post-progression survival (HR 0.46, P = 0.004), time to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status deterioration (HR 0.43, P = 0.006) and Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (QLQ-C30) global health status compared to SoC (P = 0.045). Six-month disease control rates and progression-free survival were similar between groups. Grade ≥3 adverse effects occurred in 11.4% of patients with OSE2101 and 35.1% in SoC (P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS In HLA-A2-positive patients with advanced NSCLC and secondary resistance to immunotherapy, OSE2101 increased survival with better safety compared to CT. Further evaluation in this population is warranted.

Abstract
Acquired resistances to tyrosine kinase inhibitors in non-small cell lung cancer develop after 9 - 12 month. In 60 % of the cases these resistances arise because of a secondary EGFR-T790 M resistance mutation. This report is describing the case of a patient who developed parallel two different mechanisms of resistance: A T790 M resistance mutation and a transformation into a small cell neuroendocrine cancer. Under therapy with Osimertinib and chemotherapy with carboplatin and etoposide the tumor responsed partially.

Abstract
PURPOSE Assessment of several clinical factors on progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in NSCLC patients (pts.) (stage IV) with mutated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFRm+) treated with gefitinib (gef) or with chemotherapy (CT) under real-world conditions. METHODS 285 EGFRm+ pts. of the non-interventional REASON study treated with gef (n = 206) or CT (n = 79) as first-line therapy or with gef (n = 213) or CT (n = 61) in any line throughout the course of therapy were analyzed according to age, gender, smoking history and histology. RESULTS Compared with CT, patients treated with gef showed prolongation of PFS and OS in all subgroups. PFS was significantly increased in women and non-smokers. OS was significantly increased in women, non-smokers, (ex)-smokers, patients with adenocarcinoma and elderly patients when treated with gef compared to CT. Female gender turned out to be an independent positive predictive factor for OS in patients treated with gef (HRmale: 1.74, p = 0.0009). CONCLUSION A clinical benefit of gef was shown for all analyzed clinical subgroups of EGFRm+ pts. This was confirmed for the female gender in a multivariate analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the influence of the localization of mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene on progression-free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with gefitinib (gef) or chemotherapy (CT) under real world conditions within the REASON study. METHODS Subgroups of pts with mutations in exon 19 (n = 141), 18/20 (n = 43), and 21 (n = 104) were analyzed for PFS and OS according to gef or CT treatment and compared using the log-rank test. RESULTS Pts with mutations in exon 19 and 18/20 treated with gef as first line therapy showed increased PFS and OS compared to CT. This increase was statistically significant in pts with exon 19 mutation (11.3 vs. 6.5 months), but was not found in pts with exon 21 mutation (9.1 vs. 9.3 months). Also, OS was significantly increased in patients with mutation in exon 19 treated with gef ever over all treatment lines compared to CT (21.8 vs. 10.6 months), whereas this was not found in pts with mutation in exon 21 (14.1 vs. 13.9 months). CONCLUSION Localization and nature of EGFR mutations influences gefitinib treatment outcomes under routine conditions and should therefore be analyzed in detail.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This multicentre, open-label, randomized, controlled phase II study evaluated cilengitide in combination with cetuximab and platinum-based chemotherapy, compared with cetuximab and chemotherapy alone, as first-line treatment of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients were randomized 1:1:1 to receive cetuximab plus platinum-based chemotherapy alone (control), or combined with cilengitide 2000 mg 1×/week i.v. (CIL-once) or 2×/week i.v. (CIL-twice). A protocol amendment limited enrolment to patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) histoscore ≥200 and closed the CIL-twice arm for practical feasibility issues. Primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS; independent read); secondary end points included overall survival (OS), safety, and biomarker analyses. A comparison between the CIL-once and control arms is reported, both for the total cohorts, as well as for patients with EGFR histoscore ≥200. RESULTS There were 85 patients in the CIL-once group and 84 in the control group. The PFS (independent read) was 6.2 versus 5.0 months for CIL-once versus control [hazard ratio (HR) 0.72; P = 0.085]; for patients with EGFR histoscore ≥200, PFS was 6.8 versus 5.6 months, respectively (HR 0.57; P = 0.0446). Median OS was 13.6 for CIL-once versus 9.7 months for control (HR 0.81; P = 0.265). In patients with EGFR ≥200, OS was 13.2 versus 11.8 months, respectively (HR 0.95; P = 0.855). No major differences in adverse events between CIL-once and control were reported; nausea (59% versus 56%, respectively) and neutropenia (54% versus 46%, respectively) were the most frequent. There was no increased incidence of thromboembolic events or haemorrhage in cilengitide-treated patients. αvβ3 and αvβ5 expression was neither a predictive nor a prognostic indicator. CONCLUSIONS The addition of cilengitide to cetuximab/chemotherapy indicated potential clinical activity, with a trend for PFS difference in the independent-read analysis. However, the observed inconsistencies across end points suggest additional investigations are required to substantiate a potential role of other integrin inhibitors in NSCLC treatment.

Abstract
8047 Background: Elderly pts receiving chemotherapy are more likely to have febrile neutropenia and infection than younger pts. Prophylactic fluoroquinolone during chemotherapy reduces the rate of infection and hospitalization vs placebo. The effect of prophylactic treatment with the fluoroquinolone, levofloxacin, on infection rates and survival during docetaxel plus carboplatin therapy was assessed in elderly pts with advanced NSCLC. Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase III study, eligible pts were aged ≥65 years with previously untreated, histologically/cytologically proven stage IIIB/IV NSCLC, and normal cardiac, renal, hepatic, and hematologic function. Active infection or antibiotics 72 hours before inclusion was not permitted. A planned sample size of 192 pts was considered sufficient for analysis. Pts were randomized to docetaxel (75 mg/m2 IV, Day 1) plus carboplatin (AUC 6 IV, Day 1) q3w, plus placebo or levofloxacin (500 mg po, once daily) on Days 5–11. Primary endpoint was grade 3/4 infection rate or systemic antibiotic therapy of grade 1/2 infection rate. Secondary endpoints were progression free-survival and overall survival. Between-group comparisons were performed using Fisher's exact test. Results: 192 pts (median age 70 years; ECOG PS 0/1/2 in 36%/55%/9%) were randomized to docetaxel plus carboplatin and levofloxacin (n=99) or placebo (n=93); 5 pts received no treatment and were excluded from the ITT population. Rate of grade 3/4 infection was 27.5% (95% CI: 19.3–39.0%) with levofloxacin vs 36.7% (95% CI: 27.1–48.0%) with placebo. Median progression-free survival (PFS) for patients in the levofloxacin arm was 165 days compared with 121 days in the placebo arm (p=0.22). Median overall survival was comparable between groups (307 vs 314 days, respectively; p=0.28). Conclusions: Levofloxacin prophylaxis reduces the rate of grade 3/4 infection compared with placebo.

Abstract
8082 Background: Prognostic factors for newly diagnosed aNSCLC have been extensively studied, but less information is available on factors associated with outcome of 2nd-line treatment. Better knowledge of prognostic factors could be helpful to better select patients for further chemotherapy after failure of 1st-line treatment. Methods: The analysis is based on individual patient data collected for 2 meta-analyses on 2nd-line treatment of aNSCLC, one comparing weekly vs every 3 week docetaxel (Di Maio, J Clin Oncol 2007; 25:1377), and one comparing single-agent vs doublet chemotherapy (Di Maio, J Clin Oncol in press). Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS). All analyses were stratified by trial. Results: Out of 11 trials, 2 trials were excluded due to missing information on baseline characteristics considered in multivariate analysis. Of the other 9 trials (1239 pts), 1197 pts (97%) had complete information: 78%/22% males / females, 83%/17% younger / older than 70, 28%/59%/13% Performance Status (PS) 0 / 1 / 2, 18%/82% stage IIIB / IV, 32%/47%/21% squamous / adenocarcinoma / other histology. 84% were pretreated with platin and 44% had obtained objective response (OR) to 1st line treatment. With 956 deaths, median OS was 7.4 months. At multivariate analysis, prognosis was significantly influenced by gender (worse in males vs females, Hazard Ratio [HR] 1.23 [95%CI 1.04–1.45], p=0.01), by PS (worse in PS1 vs PS0, HR 1.36 [1.16–1.59], p=0.0001 and in PS2 vs PS0, HR 3.01 [2.41–3.76], p<0.00001), by tumor histology (better in adenocarcinoma vs squamous, HR 0.85 [0.73–0.99], p=0.04 and worse in other histology vs squamous, HR 1.27 [1.05–1.52], p=0.01), by stage (worse in stage IV vs IIIB, HR 1.28 [1.07–1.53], p=0.007), by type of previous treatment (worse for pts pretreated with platin vs pts not pretreated with platin, HR 1.49 [1.14–1.93], p=0.003), and worse for pts not obtaining OR vs pts obtaining OR during 1st line (HR 1.25 [1.10–1.44], p=0.001). Conclusions: In addition to patient-related (gender, PS) or tumor-related factors (histology, stage), prognosis of pts eligible for 2nd line treatment of aNSCLC is significantly conditioned by previous use of platin and response to 1st line treatment. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
3046 Background: The trifunctional antibody catumaxomab specifically binds EpCAM+ tumor cells, CD3+ T lymphocytes and accessory cells via FcγR I/III. Thus the antibody induces tumor specific cell mediated cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. Following last years’ ASCO presentation on a phase I/II trial showing safety and efficacy of repetitive intrapleural administration of catumaxomab in patients with EpCAM positive, malignant pleural effusion (MPE), we now present data on the responsiveness of immune cells from pleural fluid to catumaxomab. Methods: Pleural fluid of patients with EpCAM-positive MPE treated with i.pl. catumaxomab was collected before treatment. Cells were harvested from the fluid and cultured ± 100 ng/ml catumaxomab using an in vitro proliferation assay. After 72 h of culture, proliferation of T cells (CD4+ and CD8+) and monocytes (CD11c+) was determined. In addition, cell supernatants after 24h incubation ± catumaxomab were analysed for their TH1/TH2 cytokine profile (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-γ and TNF- a). Results: Incubation in presence of catumaxomab led to a pronounced increase of CD4+ CD8+ and CD11+ cell numbers indicating a proliferation of these cells, whereas cultures without catumaxomab showed no proliferation of immune cells. Analysis of supernatants after 24 h revealed levels of IL-2, IL-6, IFN-γ and TNF-a, from cells incubated with catumaxomab that were distinctly higher than in cultures without catumaxomab. Conclusions: The immunologic nature of catumaxomab-induced responses in patients with pleural effusion accompanied by a reduction of tumor cells, could be underlined impressively with in vitro data obtained from pleural cells showing catumaxomab-induced proliferation of T cells and accessory cells and TH1-directed cytokine secretion. The data are equivalent to results observed in the peritoneal fluid of ascites patients. [Table: see text]

Abstract
2548 Background: The trifunctional antibody catumaxomab specifically binds EpCAM+ tumor cells, CD3+ T lymphocytes and accessory cells via the Fcγ RI/III. Thus the antibody induces tumor specific cell mediated cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo. Its intraperitoneal administration has demonstrated safety and led to efficient tumor cell killing and reduction of malignant ascites in ovarian cancer patients (pts.). The present study was conducted to evaluate safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of catumaxomab administered intrapleurally (i.pl.) into pts. with EpCAM+ malignant pleural effusion. Methods: This phase I/II trial was a multi-center uncontrolled, dose-escalating study. Pts. (ECOG ≤3) with recurrent malignant pleural effusion containing EpCAM+ tumor cells were included. Three escalating doses from 5–200 μg catumaxomab were administered i.pl. Primary objectives were toxicity and definition of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). In addition, preliminary data on efficacy (reduction of pleural fluid and tumor cell killing) were generated. Results: 13/24 pts. received 3 infusions as planned. Reasons for early termination of infusions were 3 deteriorations of performance status, 2 exanthemas, 2 dyspnoea, 2 others. The dose regimen of 20–50–100 μg catumaxomab was defined as MTD. Most frequent drug related AEs were symptoms of cytokine release syndrome. 32 SAEs were reported in 18 pts., 4 SAEs were possibly drug related (1 death due to pleural empyema, 1 pneumonia, 1 erythema, 1 increase of liver enzymes). 8/9 deaths were not drug related but due to underlying disease. Induction of human-anti-mouse (HAMA) or human-anti-rat (HARA) antibodies after treatment was found in 8/11 pts. 8/13 fully treated pts. were defined as responders (1 complete, 4 partial, 3 NA) showing reduction of effusion and of drainage necessity. 5/13 were non-responders. A reduction of tumor cells up to log 5 was seen in 10/13 pts. Conclusions: 20–50–100 μg of catumaxomab can safely be administered i. pl. This regimen will further be investigated in a randomized phase II trial comparing catumaxomab to talcum-based pleurodesis. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS There are conflicting data regarding the optimal bowel preparation for colonoscopy. This study was carried out to compare the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of three widely used bowel lavage solutions: the standard polyethylene glycol-electrolyte solution based on the GoLytely formulation (PEG-EL1; Klean-Prep); a sulphate-free PEG-EL solution based on the NuLytely formulation (PEG-EL2, Endofalk); and a sodium phosphate preparation (NaP, Fleet Phospho-Soda). PATIENT AND METHODS A total of 185 consecutive patients scheduled for elective colonoscopy were prospectively randomly assigned to undergo pre-colonoscopic bowel cleansing with either 4 l of PEG-EL1 (n=64), 3 l of PEG-EL2 (n=59), or 90 ml of NaP (n=62). The quality of preparatory colonic cleansing for each segment from the rectum to the ascending colon was scored on a five-level rating scale (1, very good to 5, very poor) by endoscopists who were blinded with regard to the type of preparation used. The primary outcome measure for the comparison of treatments was the "worst" score in any of the rated bowel segments. Safety and tolerability were evaluated by means of a symptom questionnaire completed by each patient immediately before the procedure. RESULTS Of the 185 patients who were randomly assigned to one of the three treatments, 175 underwent colonoscopy and 173 were evaluable with regard to efficacy - 59, 54, and 60 patients treated with PEG-EL1, PEG-EL2, and NaP, respectively. The treatment groups were comparable with regard to the baseline characteristics. PEG-EL1 was statistically significantly superior to the other treatments in relation to the "worst cleansing" score ( P</=0.003). In addition, colonoscopic visualization was markedly better in each of the five bowel segments and general "very good" or "good" ratings were achieved in more than 90 % of patients treated with PEG-EL1. The percentages were consistently lower in the other two groups, particularly in the ascending colon. With the exception of the sigmoid, the differences in all segments of the large bowel were statistically significant (P</=0.04). Patient satisfaction was comparable between the treatment groups. Adverse events (mainly nausea/vomiting and abdominal pain) and deviations in laboratory values occurred more frequently in the NaP group. CONCLUSIONS Preparatory PEG-EL1 (Klean-Prep) was significantly superior to PEG-EL2 (Endofalk) and NaP (Fleet Phospho-Soda) in achieving effective cleansing of the entire colon prior to colonoscopy. On the basis of these data, PEG-EL1 can be regarded as the "gold standard" for bowel cleansing prior to colonoscopy.

Abstract
Chemotherapy is the treatment of choice in metastatic stage of small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Radiation therapy, surgery and other forms of therapy are only included in special treatment situations, particularly for different local problems. A wide range of chemotherapeutic agents have proven to be effective in SCLC, including carboplatin, cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, epirubicin, etoposide, ifosfamide, teniposide and vincristine. However, treatment results could not be improved over the last 10 years and the median survival of patients with metastatic disease is limited to 7-10 months. New agents like docetaxel, gemcitabine, irinotecan, paclitaxel, topotecan and vinorelbine have shown promising results in phase-II investigations. Yet, no evidence is provided from randomized trials to employ these drugs in first line treatment. Clearly, polychemotherapy is superior to single agent treatment. Compared to the combination of cisplatin and etoposide, no other combination has clearly shown improved results in large phase-III randomised trials, yet. The combination of cisplatin and irinotecan has also shown promising results in a single randomised trial with the need to be confirmed in larger settings. Neither extending the initial treatment beyond the median number of six cycles, nor maintenance treatment have-so far-resulted in any increase in survival results for patients with metastasised SCLC. Nor has dose-intensification, which causes significantly higher toxicities in patients, shown a clear impact on the overall survival of these patients. Brain metastases represent a high frequent complication associated with SCLC. In these cases, the combination of chemotherapy and whole brain radiation therapy is advocated. Second-line treatment should always be considered in patients with relapse or failure to first-line therapy. In addition to a rechallenging with the prior drug combination or selecting a different potentially non-cross resistant one, monotherapy with topotecan proved to be effective as well. In summary, up to now, no standard chemotherapy combination exists for metastatic SCLC. The individual therapy strategy can only be selected by considering the clinically relevant conditions of the patient.

Abstract
Six patients suffering from various gynecologic malignancies developed severe thrombocytopenia (WHO IV) after normal-dose chemotherapy. All patients were treated with platelet transfusions but the results on hematopoietic recovery were not satisfactory. Therefore treatment with a new hematopoietic substance (rh interleukin-3) was initiated. All patients received a dosage of 5 mu g/kg/bw daily s.c. up to 10 days depending on the response of platelet counts. In two women, who had suffered from severe hemorrhage (epistaxis resp. ankle joint hematoma), symptoms disappeared after approximately three days of rhIL-3 use. Whereas platelet transfusions were ineffective in all patients, IL-3 led to a significant increase of the platelet count after 3-5 days of application. Side-effects were mild, when seen in one case, where G-CSF was given at the same time. Our experience supports the idea of using new growth factors like rhIL-3 to cure chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression, such as severe thrombocytopenia.

Abstract
Parallel-plate flow chambers have been used to model the vascular microcirculation and study the in vitro dynamic adhesive interactions of leukocytes and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). We describe here a high capacity system which can simultaneously monitor the adhesive interaction of neutrophils and HUVECs in ten flow chambers. Automated data collection was achieved with an image analyzer controlling the autostage and autofocus attachments of an inverted microscope. Images from the flow chambers were captured via phase-contrast microscopy using a video camera and laser videodisk recorder. The images were downloaded off-line into an image analyzer for automated counting of rolling and adherent cells. Neutrophils were detected by their "phase bright' characteristics. An automated optimization procedure allowed the computer to choose the best setting for the selective detection of neutrophils. In addition, a method which utilized image averaging was used to distinguish between rolling and adherent cells. A comparison of the results obtained from the manual and automated counting methods revealed linear relationships for the counting of both adherent (r = 0.98) and rolling cells (r = 0.96) with counting efficiencies of 59% and 46%, respectively. The utility of the system was demonstrated by its ability to measure the adhesive interaction between neutrophils and HUVEC in response to stimulus such as interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha), histamine, or formyl-1-methionyl-1-leucyl-1-phenylalanine (fMLP). In conclusion, we have developed an automated assay which combines the capacity of ten flow chambers with a computerized data analysis system; the result is an efficient and reproducible assay which minimizes operator associated errors and biological variability.

Abstract
Single parameter gated flow cytometric fluorescent histograms were obtained on normal donor blood mononuclear cells using several commonly available lymphocyte surface markers. A computer method was developed to average single parameter flow cytometric immunofluorescent histograms. The averaged histograms provide a means of pattern recognition for normal lymphocytes and will aid in the clinical evaluation of lymphocytosis. Averaged histograms may also serve as standards for more advanced analysis.

Abstract
We have previously described a subpopulation of patients with septic shock who had a reversible depression of radionuclide-determined left ventricular ejection fraction (EF). To investigate the mechanism of this myocardial depression, an in vitro model of mammalian myocardial cell performance was established employing primary spontaneously beating rat myocardial cells. The contraction of a single cardiac cell was quantitated by recording the changes in area occupied by the cell during contraction and relaxation. In 20 septic shock patients during the acute phase, the mean left ventricular EF was decreased (mean = 0.33, normal mean = 0.50), and serum obtained during this acute phase induced a mean (+/- standard error of the mean) 33 +/- 4% decrease in extent and 25 +/- 4% decrease in velocity of myocardial cell shortening during contraction (P less than 0.001). In contrast, serum obtained from 11 of these same patients before shock (n = 2) or after recovery (n = 9) of the left ventricular EF (mean = 0.50) showed a return toward normal in extent and velocity of shortening (P less than 0.001). Sera from 17 critically ill nonseptic patients, from 10 patients with structural heart disease as a cause for a depressed EF, and from 12 healthy laboratory personnel, induced no significant changes in in vitro myocardial cell performance. In 20 patients during the acute phase of septic shock, the decreased EF in vivo demonstrated a significant correlation (r = +0.52, P less than 0.01) with a decrease in the extent of myocardial cell shortening in vitro. The quantitative and temporal correlation between the decreased left ventricular EF and this serum myocardial depressant substance argues for a pathophysiologic role for this depressant substance in producing the reversible cardiomyopathy seen during septic shock in humans.

Abstract
An interlaboratory flow cytometric comparison of several commercially available human lymphocyte subset reagents was undertaken in three different laboratories. Fresh Hypaque-Ficoll purified blood mononuclear cells were stained at 4 degrees C or 22 degrees C. Direct or indirect surface immunofluorescence was carried out at all sites using an EPICS V flow cytometer. Fullbright, 10-micron fluorescent polystyrene microspheres were used for optical alignment and standardization. A log integral fluorescent histogram gated on forward and right angle scatter was collected on 1-2 X 10(4) cells for each reagent and the proportion, of positive cell determined for each reagent. With the exception of one reagent, anti-B1, which showed an approximately twofold variation, all three laboratories showed remarkable agreement. Thus there was no significant difference noted for the following reagents: OKT4, CCT4, Leu 3a, Leu 2a, OKT8, or CCT8. We attribute these findings to the availability of quality reagents, precision instrumentation, and a standard lymphocyte preparation.

Abstract
In the present study, the effects of cell cycle phase and proliferation rate on the expression of specific estrogen binding activity were explored in hormone-dependent human breast cancer cells. A technique was developed to alter the proliferative rate of MCF-7 cells by plating at different densities. The doubling time ranged from 20 to 48 hr, showing a negative relation to the number of plated cells. Slowly proliferating cells had accumulated more than twice as much estrogen receptor (ER) activity as did fast-proliferating cells. Exposure of exponentially growing cells to isoleucine-deficient medium resulted in decreased thymidine incorporation and disappearance of detectable cellular ER activity. Overall protein synthesis was reduced by only 30% in cells growing in isoleucine-free medium. At 24 hr after release from isoleucine deprivation, ER levels are fully restored, although thymidine incorporation does not resume for an additional 6 to 8 hr, and increases in cell number are not seen for 24 hr. Exposure of exponentially growing cells to 2 mM thymidine for 24 hr produced partially synchronized MCF-7 cells (approximately 70%). Six hr after release from excess thymidine, cells reached S phase; after 9 hr, G2; and after 18 hr, G1. ER levels immediately and, 6 hr after release, remained unchanged, showed a slight increase at 9 hr, and showed an increase of about 50 to 60% at 18 hr. These data suggest that: (a) ER binding activity and DNA synthesis can be dissociated; (b) ongoing protein synthesis is necessary for maintenance of cellular ER activity; and (c) ER is apparently synthesized throughout the cell cycle, with some evidence that this is predominantly in G1 and G2.

Abstract
The intercurrent administration of doxorubicin hydrochloride to a patient undergoing whole-body hyperthermia for the treatment of metastatic cancer repeatedly produced ventricular irritability and cardiac dysfunction. Individually, doxorubicin and hyperthermia were tolerated by the patient without incident. Catecholamine determinations showed that the administration of doxorubicin under hyperthermic conditions increased the liberation of both epinephrine and norepinephrine. The acute synergistic cardiotoxic effects occurred with doxorubicin dosages that were severalfold less than those associated with only mild and transient ECG disturbances under normothermic conditions.

Abstract
Fourteen patients with a variety of neoplasms not responsive to standard forms of therapy underwent whole body hyperthermia for a maximum 4 h at 41.8 degrees C. This was a phase-I cancer trial designed to develop whole body hyperthermia as an adjuvant to systemic chemotherapy. Intravenous analgesia was used to sedate patients, obviating the need for general endotracheal anesthesia. Hyperthermia was induced by means of a high-flow water perfusion suit. Cardiovascular performance was evaluated using a flow-directed pulmonary artery catheter. Patients developed a twofold mean increase in cardiac index without evidence of cardiac damage by ECG or creatine phosphokinase (CPK) isoenzymes. An acute fall in serum magnesium and phosphate and an acute rise in arterial pH, serum CPK values, and granulocyte count occurred in all patients. There were no clotting abnormalities. Toxicity included fatigue, diarrhea, nausea, and transient elevations in liver enzymes. Four patients were febrile for 36 h after initial defervescence. Peripheral neuropathy developed in four. These results show that with carefully monitored conditions whole body hyperthermia is feasible.

Abstract
Disposable liquid-crystal temperature-trend indicators were evaluated under clinical conditions that simulated the development of intraoperative hyperthermia during anesthesia. Comparison was made to forehead thermistors for rapidity, accuracy, and linearity of response as well as correlation with esophageal and rectal thermistor recordings. The liquid-crystal monitors were comparable to the forehead thermistors in both rapidity and linearity or response, but not in accuracy. A linear correlation existed with the esophageal thermistor temperatures. Correlation with the rectal temperatures was not as exact. It is concluded that liquid-crystal thermometers may adequately serve as screening devices for intraoperative hyperthermia.
