Abstract
BACKGROUND Although segmentectomy was better than lobectomy in terms of overall survival for patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a pure-solid tumour appearance on thin-section CT in the open-label, multicentre, randomised, controlled, phase 3 JCOG0802/WJOG4607L trial, the reasons why segmentectomy was associated with better overall survival were unclear. We aimed to compare the survival, cause of death, and recurrence patterns after segmentectomy versus lobectomy in trial participants with NSCLC with a pure-solid appearance METHODS: We conducted a post-hoc supplemental analysis of the JCO0802/WJOG4607L randomised, controlled, non-inferiority trial for the patients (aged 20-85 years) with small-sized NSCLC with radiologically pure-solid appearance on thin-section CT (≤2 cm, consolidation tumour ratio 1·0). The primary aim was to compare the overall and relapse-free survival, cause of death, and recurrence patterns associated with segmentectomy and lobectomy for patients with radiologically pure-solid NSCLC to determine why the overall survival of segmentectomy was superior to that of lobectomy, even for oncologically invasive lung cancers. JCO0802/WJOG4607L is registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry, UMIN000002317, and is complete. FINDINGS Between Aug 10, 2009, and Oct 21, 2014, 1106 patients were randomly assigned to undergo either lobectomy or segmentectomy. Of these participants, 553 (50%) had radiologically pure-solid NSCLC and were eligible for this post-hoc supplemental analysis. Of these 553 participants, 274 (50%) patients underwent lobectomy and 279 (50%) underwent segmentectomy. Median patient age was 67 years (IQR 61-73), 347 (63%) of 553 patients were male and 206 (37%) were female, and data on race and ethnicity were not collected. As of data cutoff (June 13, 2020), after a median follow-up of 7·3 years (IQR 6·0-8·5), the 5-year overall survival rate was significantly higher after segmentectomy than after lobectomy (86·1% [95% CI 81·4-89·7] in the lobectomy group, with 55 deaths vs 92·4% [88·6-95·0] in the segmentectomy group, with 38 deaths; hazard ratio (HR) 0·64 [95% CI 0·41-0·97]; log-rank test p=0·033), whereas the 5-year relapse-free survival was similar between the groups (81·7% [95% CI 76·5-85·8], with 34 events vs 82·0% [76·9-86·0], with 52 events; HR 1·01 [95% CI 0·72-1·42]; p=0·94). Deaths after a median follow-up of 7·3 years due to lung cancer occurred in 20 (7%) of 274 patients after lobectomy and 19 (7%) of 279 after segmentectomy, and deaths due to other causes occurred in 35 (13%) patients after lobectomy compared with 19 (7%) after segmentectomy (lung cancer death vs other cause of death, p=0·19). The locoregional recurrence was higher after segmentectomy (21 [8%] vs 45 [16%]; p=0·0021). In subgroup analyses, better 5-year overall survival after segmentectomy than after lobectomy was observed in the subgroup of patients aged 70 years or older (77·1% [95% CI 68·2-83·8] with lobectomy vs 85·6% [77·5-90·9] with segmentectomy; p=0·013) and in male patients (80·5% [73·7-85·7] vs 92·1% [87·0-95·2]; p=0·0085). By contrast, better 5-year relapse-free survival after lobectomy than after segmentectomy was observed in the subgroup younger than 70 years (87·4% [95% CI 81·2-91·7] with lobectomy vs 84·4% [77·9-89·1] with segmentectomy; p=0·049) and in female patients (94·2% [87·6-97·4] vs 82·2% [73·2-88·4]; p=0·047). INTERPRETATION This post-hoc analysis showed improved overall survival after segmentectomy in patients with pure-solid NSCLC compared with lobectomy. However, survival outcomes of segmentectomy depend on the patient's age and sex. Given the results of this exploratory analysis, further research is necessary to determine clinically relevant indications for segmentectomy in radiologically pure-solid NSCLC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to identify the risk factors for pulmonary functional deterioration after wedge resection for early-stage lung cancer with ground-glass opacity, which remain unclear, particularly in low-risk patients. METHODS We analysed 237 patients who underwent wedge resection for peripheral early-stage lung cancer in JCOG0804/WJOG4507L, a phase III, single-arm confirmatory trial. The changes in forced expiratory volume in 1 s were calculated pre- and postoperatively, and a cutoff value of -10%, the previously reported reduction rate after lobectomy, was used to divide the patients into 2 groups: the severely reduced group (≤-10%) and normal group (>-10%). These groups were compared to identify predictors for severe reduction. RESULTS Thirty-seven (16%) patients experienced severe reduction. Lesions with a total tumour size ≥1 cm were significantly more frequent in the severely reduced group than in the normal group (89.2% vs 71.5%; P = 0.024). A total tumour size of ≥1 cm [odds ratio (OR), 3.287; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.114-9.699: P = 0.031] and pleural indentation (OR, 2.474; 95% CI, 1.039-5.890: P = 0.041) were significant predictive factors in the univariable analysis. In the multivariable analysis, pleural indentation (OR, 2.667; 95% CI, 1.082-6.574; P = 0.033) was an independent predictive factor, whereas smoking status and total tumour size were marginally significant. CONCLUSIONS Of the low-risk patients who underwent pulmonary wedge resection for early-stage lung cancer, 16% experienced severe reduction in pulmonary function. Pleural indentation may be a risk factor for severely reduced pulmonary function in pulmonary wedge resection.

Abstract
PURPOSE We previously reported the primary results of JCOG0701, a randomized, multicenter, phase 3, noninferiority trial comparing accelerated fractionation (Ax) to standard fractionation (SF) for early glottic cancer. In the primary results, although the similar efficacy of 3-year progression-free survival and toxicity of Ax compared with SF was observed, the noninferiority of Ax was not confirmed statistically. To evaluate the long-term follow-up results of JCOG0701, we conducted JCOG0701A3 as an ancillary study of JCOG0701. METHODS AND MATERIALS In JCOG0701, 370 patients were randomly assigned to receive SF of 66 to 70 Gy (33-35 fractions; n = 184) or Ax of 60 to 64.8 Gy (25-27 fractions; n = 186). The data cutoff date for this analysis was in June 2020. Overall survival, progression-free survival, and late adverse events including central nervous system ischemia were analyzed. RESULTS With a median follow-up period of 7.1 years (range, 0.1-12.4), progression-free survival of the SF and Ax arms were 76.2% and 78.2% at 5 years and 72.7% and 74.8% at 7 years (P = .44). OS of the SF and Ax arms were 92.7% and 89.6% at 5 years and 90.8% and 86.5% at 7 years (P = .92). Among 366 patients with a protocol treatment, the cumulative incidence of late adverse events of the SF and Ax arms were 11.9% and 7.4% at 8 years (hazard ratio, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.28-1.01; P = .06). Central nervous system ischemia of grade 2 or higher was observed in 4.1% for the SF arm and 1.1% for the Ax arm (P = .098). CONCLUSIONS After long-term follow-up, Ax showed comparable efficacy to SF and a tendency for better safety. Ax may be suitable for early glottic cancer because of its convenience in minimizing treatment time, cost, and labor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The optimal region of lymph node dissection (LND) during segmentectomy in patients with small peripheral non-small cell lung cancer requires clarification. Through a supplemental analysis of the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) 0802/West Japan Oncology Group (WJOG) 4607L, we investigated the associated factors, distribution, and recurrence pattern of lymph node metastases (LNMs) and proposed the optimal LND region. METHODS Of the 1106 patients included in the JCOG0802/WJOG4607L, 1056 patients with LNDs were included in this supplemental analysis. We investigated the distribution and recurrence pattern of LNMs along with the radiologic findings (with ground-glass opacity, part-solid tumor; without ground-grass opacity component, pure-solid tumor). RESULTS The radiologic findings were the only significant factor for LNMs. Of 533 patients with part-solid tumors, 8 (1.5%) had LNMs. Further, only 3 (0.5%) patients had pN2 disease, and no patients had interlobar LNMs from nonadjacent segments. Of the 523 patients with pure-solid tumors, 55 (10.5%) had LNMs, and 28 (5.4%) had pN2 disease. Five patients had metastases to nonadjacent interlobar lymph nodes (LNs). Two (2.0%) patients with S6 tumors had upper mediastinal LNMs. In addition, the incidence of mediastinal LN recurrence in patients with S6 lung cancer was greater in those who underwent selective LND than those who underwent systematic LND (P = .0455). CONCLUSIONS Nonadjacent interlobar and mediastinal LND have little impact on pathologic nodal staging in patients with part-solid tumors. In contrast, selective LND is recommended at least for patients with pure-solid tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemoradiotherapy (CRT) with concurrent cisplatin is the standard of care as a nonsurgical definitive treatment for patients with locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (LA-SCCHN). However, CRT is associated with increased severe late adverse events, including swallowing dysfunction, xerostomia, ototoxicity, and hypothyroidism. Few strategies aimed at less invasive CRT without compromising treatment outcomes have been successful. The purpose of this study is to confirm the non-inferiority of reduced dose prophylactic radiation with 40 Gy compared to standard dose prophylactic radiation with 56 Gy in terms of the time to treatment failure (TTF) among patients with clinical stage III-IVB LA-SCCHN. METHODS This study is a multicenter, two-arm, open-label, randomized phase III trial. Patients with LA-SCCHN excluding p16 positive oropharynx cancer are randomized to the standard arm or experimental arm. A total dose of 70 Gy for tumors with concurrent cisplatin at 100 mg/m2 are administered in both arms. For prophylactic field, patients in the standard arm receive a total dose of 56 Gy in 35 fractions for 7 weeks using simultaneous integrated boost (SIB56) and those in the experimental arm receive 40 Gy in 20 fractions using two-step methods for 4 weeks (2-step40). A total of 400 patients will be enrolled from 52 Japanese institutions within 5 years. The primary endpoint is TTF, and the secondary endpoints are overall survival, complete response rate, progression-free survival, locoregional relapse-free survival, acute and late adverse events, quality of life score, and swallowing function score. DISCUSSION If the experimental arm is non-inferior to the standard arm in terms of TTF and superior on the safety endpoints, the 2-step40 procedure is the more useful treatment than SIB56 for definitive CRT. TRIAL REGISTRATION This trial has been registered in the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials as jRCTs031210100 ( https://jrct.niph.go.jp/latest-detail/jRCTs031210100 ). Date of Registration: May 2021.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and pathologic complete response (pCR) rate of radiation therapy with atezolizumab as bladder-preserving therapy for invasive bladder cancer. METHODS AND MATERIALS A multicenter, phase 2 study was conducted with patients with clinically T2-3 or very-high-risk T1 bladder cancer who were poor candidates for or refused radical cystectomy. The interim analysis of pCR is reported as a key secondary endpoint ahead of the progression-free survival rate primary endpoint. Radiation therapy (41.4 Gy to the small pelvic field and 16.2 Gy to the whole bladder) was given in addition to 1200 mg intravenous atezolizumab every 3 weeks. After 24 treatment weeks, response was assessed after transurethral resection, and tumor programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression was assessed using tumor-infiltrating immune cell scores. RESULTS Forty-five patients enrolled from January 2019 to May 2021 were analyzed. The most common clinical T stage was T2 (73.3%), followed by T1 (15.6%) and T3 (11.1%). Most tumors were solitary (77.8%), small (<3 cm) (57.8%), and without concurrent carcinoma in situ (88.9%). Thirty-eight patients (84.4%) achieved pCR. High pCR rates were achieved in older patients (90.9%) and in patients with high PD-L1-expressing tumors (95.8% vs 71.4%). Adverse events (AEs) occurred in 93.3% of patients, with diarrhea being the most common (55.6%), followed by frequent urination (42.2%) and dysuria (20.0%). The frequency of grade 3 AEs was 13.3%, whereas no grade 4 AEs were observed. CONCLUSIONS Combination therapy with radiation therapy and atezolizumab provided high pCR rates and acceptable toxicity, indicating it could be a promising option for bladder preservation therapy.

Abstract
Introduction Proton beam therapy (PBT) is known to be an effective locoregional treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, few comparative studies in treatment-naïve cases have been reported. The aim of this study was to compare the survival outcomes of PBT with those of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in patients with treatment-naïve solitary HCC. Methods Ninety-five consecutive patients with treatment-naïve HCC, a single nodule measuring ≤5 cm in diameter, and a Child-Pugh score of ≤8 who were treated with PBT at the University of Tsukuba Hospital between 2001 and 2013 were enrolled in the study. In addition, 836 patients with treatment-naïve HCC treated by RFA at the University of Tokyo Hospital during the same period were analyzed as controls. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared in 83 patient pairs after propensity score matching. Results The 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year RFS rates were 86.6%, 49.5%, and 35.5%, respectively, in the PBT group and 59.5%, 34.0%, and 20.9% in the RFA group (p = 0.058); the respective OS rates were 97.6%, 77.8%, and 57.1% in the PBT group and 95.1%, 81.7%, and 67.7% in the RFA group (p = 0.16). Regarding adverse effects, no grade 3 or higher adverse events were noted in the PBT; however, two grade 3 adverse events occurred within 30 days of RFA in the RFA group: one hemoperitoneum and one hemothorax. Discussion After propensity score matching, PBT showed no significant difference in RFS and OS compared to RFA. PBT can be an alternative for patients with solitary treatment-naïve HCC.

Abstract
AIM Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with bile duct invasion (BDI) (BDIHCC) has a poor prognosis. Moreover, due to the paucity of reports, there is no consensus regarding optimal management of this clinical condition yet. The aim of this study was to clarify the efficacy and safety of proton beam therapy (PBT) for BDIHCC. METHODS Between 2009 and 2018, 15 patients with BDIHCC underwent PBT at our institution. The overall survival (OS), local control (LC), and progression-free survival (PFS) curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Toxicities were assessed using the Common Terminology Criteria of Adverse Events version 4.0. RESULTS The median follow-up time was 23.4 months (range, 7.9-54.3). The median age was 71 years (range, 58-90 years). Many patients were Child A (n = 8, 53.3%) and most had solitary tumors (n = 11, 73.3%). Additionally, most patients had central type BDI (n = 11, 73%). The median tumor size was 4.0 cm (range, 1.5-8.0 cm). The 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were 80.0%, 58.7% and 40.2%, respectively, and the corresponding LC and PFS rates were 93.3%, 93.3%, and 74.7% and 72.7%, 9.7%, and 0.0%, respectively. Acute grade 1/2 dermatitis (n = 7, 46.7%), and grades 2 (n = 1, 6.7%) and 3 (n = 1, 6.7%) cholangitis were observed. Late toxicities such as grade 3 gastric hemorrhage and pleural effusion were observed. No toxicities of grade 4 or higher were observed. CONCLUSIONS PBT was feasible with tolerable toxicities for the treatment of BDIHCC.

Abstract
Introduction To determine the rate of deteriorating activities of daily living (ADL) and to investigate predictive factors in elderly patients undergoing surgery for NSCLC. Methods Patients with NSCLC aged 75 years or older who underwent curative surgical resection were evaluated using the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology Index of Competence Instrumental ADL (TMIG-IADL) and the Japanese version of EuroQol 5-dimensions 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) quality-of-life scale administered at baseline and at 6 months postoperative. The primary end point was the rate of living patients without substantial deterioration of TMIG-IADL, defined as a decline greater than or equal to three points. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to determine risk factors for deteriorating ADL. Results Between May 2019 and May 2020, 876 of the 986 screened patients enrolled from 47 institutions were eligible and included in the analysis. TMIG-IADL and EQ-5D-5L scores were obtained from 96.0% and 92.6% of the patients, respectively. At 6 months postoperative, 745 patients (85.1%, 95% confidence interval: 82.5%-87.3%) reported no significant ADL deterioration, and 96 of 841 patients (11.4%) with postoperative score data reported significant deterioration. The social domain was the most frequently affected activity. In multivariable analysis, poor performance status, low G8 geriatric screening score, segmentectomy (versus wedge resection), and surgery lasting less than 3 hours were associated with deteriorating ADL. Worsening EQ-5D-5L scores by minimally important difference or more were observed in 22.1% of the patients. Changes in TMIG-IADL and EQ-5D-5L scores were poorly correlated. Conclusions Approximately 15% of elderly patients with NSCLC experienced significant ADL deterioration at 6 months postoperative.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a rare type of malignancy comprising a variety of histological diagnoses. Chemotherapy constitutes the standard treatment for advanced STS. Doxorubicin-based regimens, which include the administration of doxorubicin alone or in combination with ifosfamide or dacarbazine, are widely accepted as first-line chemotherapy for advanced STS. Trabectedin, eribulin, pazopanib, and gemcitabine plus docetaxel (GD), which is the empirical standard therapy in Japan, are major candidates for second-line chemotherapy for advanced STS, although clear evidence of the superiority of any one regimen is lacking. The Bone and Soft Tissue Tumor Study Group of the Japan Clinical Oncology Group (JCOG) conducts this trial to select the most promising regimen among trabectedin, eribulin, and pazopanib for comparison with GD as the test arm regimen in a future phase III trial of second-line treatment for patients with advanced STS. METHODS The JCOG1802 study is a multicenter, selection design, randomized phase II trial comparing trabectedin (1.2 mg/m2 intravenously, every 3 weeks), eribulin (1.4 mg/m2 intravenously, days 1 and 8, every 3 weeks), and pazopanib (800 mg orally, every day) in patients with unresectable or metastatic STS refractory to doxorubicin-based first-line chemotherapy. The principal eligibility criteria are patients aged 16 years or above; unresectable and/or metastatic STS; exacerbation within 6 months prior to registration; histopathological diagnosis of STS other than Ewing sarcoma, embryonal/alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, well-differentiated liposarcoma and myxoid liposarcoma; prior doxorubicin-based chemotherapy for STS, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival, and the secondary endpoints include overall survival, disease-control rate, response rate, and adverse events. The total planned sample size to correctly select the most promising regimen with a probability of > 80% is 120. Thirty-seven institutions in Japan will participate at the start of this trial. DISCUSSION This is the first randomized trial to evaluate trabectedin, eribulin, and pazopanib as second-line therapies for advanced STS. We endeavor to perform a subsequent phase III trial comparing the best regimen selected by this study (JCOG1802) with GD. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials ( jRCTs031190152 ) on December 5, 2019.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although segmentectomy is a widely used surgical procedure, lobectomy is the standard procedure for resectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of segmentectomy for NSCLC up to 3 cm in size, including ground-glass opacity (GGO) and predominant GGO. METHODS A multicentre, single-arm, confirmatory phase 3 trial was conducted across 42 institutions (hospitals, university hospitals, and cancer centres) in Japan. Segmentectomy with hilar, interlobar, and intrapulmonary lymph node dissection was performed as protocol surgery for patients with a tumour diameter of up to 3 cm, including GGO and dominant GGO. Eligible patients were those aged 20-79 years with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance score of 0 or 1 and clinical stage IA tumour confirmed by thin-sliced CT. The primary endpoint was 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS). This study is registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials (UMIN000011819), and is ongoing. FINDINGS A total of 396 patients were registered from Sept 20, 2013, to Nov 13, 2015, of whom 357 underwent segmentectomy. At a median follow-up of 5·4 years (IQR 5·0-6·0), the 5-year RFS was 98·0% (95% CI 95·9-99·1). This finding exceeded the 87% of the pre-set threshold 5-year RFS and the primary endpoint was met. Grade 3 or 4 early postoperative complications occurred in seven patients (2%), but no grade 5 treatment-related deaths occurred. INTERPRETATION Segmentectomy should be considered as part of standard treatment for patients with predominantly GGO NSCLC with a tumour size of 3 cm or less in diameter, including GGO even if it exceeds 2 cm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of JCOG1610 (randomized controlled phase III trial) was to confirm the superiority of preoperative denosumab to curettage with adjuvant local therapy for patients with giant cell tumor of bone without possible post-operative large bone defect. METHODS The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival and the total sample size was set at 106 patients. Patient accrual began in October 2017. However, the accrual was terminated in December 2020 due to a recommendation from the Data and Safety Monitoring Committee because of poor patient accrual. Now, we report the descriptive results obtained in this study. RESULTS A total of 18 patients had been registered from 13 Japanese institutions at the time of termination on December 2020. Eleven patients were assigned to Arm A (curettage and adjuvant local therapy) and 7 to Arm B (preoperative denosumab, curettage and adjuvant local therapy). Median follow-up period was 1.6 (range: 0.5-2.8) years. Protocol treatment was completed in all but one patient in Arm A who had a pathological fracture before surgery. All patients in Arm B were treated with five courses of preoperative denosumab. Relapse-free survival proportions in Arm A and B were 90.0% (95% confidence interval: 47.3-98.5) and 100% (100-100) at 1 year, and 60.0% (19.0-85.5) and 62.5% (14.2-89.3) at 2 years, respectively [hazard ratio (95% confidence interval): 1.51 (0.24-9.41)]. CONCLUSION In terms of relapse-free survival, the superiority of preoperative denosumab was not observed in patients with giant cell tumor of bone without possible post-operative large bone defect.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To confirm the feasibility of hypofractionated proton beam therapy (PBT), we compared the acute adverse event rates and International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) in prostate cancer patients treated with hypofractionated versus conventionally fractionated (2.0 Gy relative biological effectiveness (RBE)/fraction) PBT. METHODS We reviewed 289 patients with prostate cancer, of whom 73, 100, and 116 patients were treated with 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 Gy (RBE)/fraction, respectively. The endpoints were acute genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicities and the IPSS, evaluated up to 6 months after PBT initiation. RESULTS No significant differences were found in acute toxicity rates or the IPSS among the fractionation schedules. Diabetes mellitus, age, and androgen deprivation therapy were not identified as factors associated with the IPSS. CONCLUSION There were no significant differences in adverse events or quality of life among the three fractionation schedules early after PBT.

Abstract
Background The current standard treatment for elderly patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma is surgery followed by short-course radiotherapy with temozolomide. In recent studies, 40 Gy in 15 fractions vs. 60 Gy in 30 fractions, 34 Gy in 10 fractions vs. 60 Gy in 30 fractions, and 40 Gy in 15 fractions vs. 25 Gy in 5 fractions have been reported as non-inferior. The addition of temozolomide increased the survival benefit of radiotherapy with 40 Gy in 15 fractions. However, the optimal regimen for radiotherapy plus concomitant temozolomide remains unresolved. Methods This multi-institutional randomized phase III trial was commenced to confirm the non-inferiority of radiotherapy comprising 25 Gy in 5 fractions with concomitant (150 mg/m2/day, 5 days) and adjuvant temozolomide over 40 Gy in 15 fractions with concomitant (75 mg/m2/day, every day from first to last day of radiation) and adjuvant temozolomide in terms of overall survival (OS) in elderly patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. A total of 270 patients will be accrued from 51 Japanese institutions in 4 years and follow-up will last 2 years. Patients 71 years of age or older, or 71–75 years old with resection of less than 90% of the contrast-enhanced region, will be registered and randomly assigned to each group with 1:1 allocation. The primary endpoint is OS, and the secondary endpoints are progression-free survival, frequency of adverse events, proportion of Karnofsky performance status preservation, and proportion of health-related quality of life preservation. The Japan Clinical Oncology Group Protocol Review Committee approved this study protocol in April 2020. Ethics approval was granted by the National Cancer Center Hospital Certified Review Board. Patient enrollment began in August 2020. Discussion If the primary endpoint is met, short-course radiotherapy comprising 25 Gy in 5 fractions with concomitant and adjuvant temozolomide will be a standard of care for elderly patients with newly diagnosed glioblastoma. Trial registration Registry number: jRCTs031200099. Date of Registration: 27/Aug/2020. Date of First Participant Enrollment: 4/Sep/2020.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) located in the caudate lobe (caudate HCC) is rare; however, patients with this type of tumour have poorer prognoses than those with HCC in other segments. Despite many published reports on the clinical usefulness of proton beam therapy (PBT) for HCC, data on the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing PBT for caudate HCC remain scarce. Therefore, the present study aimed to investigate the outcomes of this group of patients. Thirty patients with caudate HCC who underwent definitive PBT between February 2002 and February 2014 were retrospectively analysed. The total irradiation doses ranged from 55 to 77 (median 72.6) Gy relative biological dose. The median follow-up period was 37.5 (range, 3.0-152.0) months. The overall survival (OS) rates at one, three and five years were 86.6%, 62.8% and 46.1%, respectively. According to univariate and multivariate analyses, Child-Pugh A (P < 0.01), having a single tumour (P = 0.02) and a low serum alpha-fetoprotein level (AFP; P < 0.01) were significant factors predicting longer survival. The local control (LC) rates at one, three and five years were 100%, 85.9% and 85.9%, respectively, while the corresponding progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 65%, 27.5% and 22%, respectively. No grade 3 or worse adverse events were observed. PBT is effective and safe for the treatment of caudate HCC, and should therefore be considered a feasible option for intervention in patients with this disease.

Abstract
The standard first-line treatment for patients with human epidermal growth factor 2-positive metastatic breast cancer is a combination therapy of trastuzumab, pertuzumab and docetaxel, and the standard second-line treatment is trastuzumab emtansine. However, it may be difficult for the elderly to maintain sufficient intensity of treatment due to severe adverse events of trastuzumab, pertuzumab and docetaxel. The aim of this trial is to confirm the non-inferiority of trastuzumab emtansine over trastuzumab, pertuzumab and docetaxel in terms of overall survival in elderly (65-year-old or more) patients with human epidermal growth factor 2-positive metastatic breast cancer. If improved overall survival and fewer toxicities are observed, trastuzumab emtansine may be a feasible new standard first-line treatment for elderly patients with human epidermal growth factor 2-positive metastatic breast cancer. A planned total 330 patients will be enrolled from 45 institutions over 6.5 years. This trial has been registered in the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry as UMIN000030783 [http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/index.htm].

Abstract
Objectives To estimate appropriate dose-volume parameters for avoidance of pneumonitis in use of chemoradiotherapy and durvalumab for treatment of lung cancer. Materials and methods Patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy followed by durvalumab at 9 centers were enrolled in the study. Three-dimensional radiotherapy, intensity modulated radiotherapy, and proton beam therapy were used. The frequency and severity of pneumonitis and the dose-volume relationship for normal lung were evaluated. Univariable and multivariable analyses were conducted to identify risk factors. A covariate adjusted hazard ratio was then estimated for the percentages of normal lung volume irradiated at ≥ X Gy (Vx) (X = 5-40) and lung volume non-irradiated at ≥ X Gy (X = 5-40), with the covariates selected in the variable selection. Cumulative incidence functions and covariate adjusted hazard ratios were also estimated for dichotomized variables, with estimated cut-off points. Results A total of 91 patients were enrolled in the study. The median time from the start of radiotherapy to development of pneumonitis was 4.1 months. Pneumonitis was observed in 80 patients (88%), including grade 2 or severe pneumonitis in 31 (34%) and ≥ grade 3 pneumonitis in 11 (12%). Pneumonitis was inside the irradiation field in 73 of the 80 patients (91%). The selected factors for ≥ grade 2 pneumonitis were V20, and primary site (upper lobe) in multivariable analysis. The cut off value of V20 was 18.99%, and there was a significant difference between V20 of < 18.77 and ≥ 18.77. Conclusion Though there are some limitation of this study, the basic concept of concurrent chemoradiotherapy with an emphasis on V20 remains unchanged in use of durvalumab. However, we recommend reduction of V20 to as small a value as possible in use of this therapy.

Abstract
Unirradiated liver volume (ULV) preservation rate is an important factor associated with radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) undergoing proton beam therapy (PBT). The purpose of this study is to identify the predictors for ULV preservation and quantify the capacity of proton beams in normal liver sparing during PBT. We reviewed planning data of 92 patients with single intrahepatic HCC tumors undergoing PBT. The potential clinical and planning factors that may affect ULV preservation were involved in multiple linear regression for ULV preservation rate. The significant factors were determined to be predictors and their influences were quantified. The median ULV preservation rate was 62.08%. All the assessed clinical factors showed significant effects on ULV preservation rate: clinical target volume (CTV), P < 0.001; portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT), P = 0.010; left lobe tumor, P = 0.010. In contrast, none of the planning factors demonstrated significance. The coefficients of significant factors in multiple linear regression were 60.85 for intercept, -0.02 for CTV, -9.01 for PVTT and 8.31 for left lobe tumors. The capacity of proton beams to spare normal liver tissue during PBT for HCC is mainly affected by clinical factors. The baseline of the ULV preservation rate is 60.85%, decreasing 0.02% with each milliliter of CTV increase and 9.01% for tumors with PVTT, and increasing 8.31% for tumors limited to the left lobe. Further clinical studies should be carried out to correlate our dosimetric findings with clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Radical cystectomy is the gold standard treatment for muscle invasive bladder cancer, but some patients have medically inoperable disease or refuse cystectomy to preserve their bladder function. Bladder preservation therapy with transurethral resection of the bladder tumor and concurrent chemoradiotherapy, known as trimodal treatment, is regarded to be a curative-intent alternative to radical cystectomy for patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer during the past decade. After the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors, a world-changing breakthrough occurred in the field of metastatic urothelial carcinoma and many clinical trials have been conducted against non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Interestingly, preclinical and clinical studies against other malignancies have shown that immune checkpoint inhibitors interact with the radiation-induced immune reaction. As half of the patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer are elderly, and some have renal dysfunction, not only as comorbidity but also because of hydronephrosis caused by their tumors, immune checkpoint inhibitors are expected to become part of a new therapeutic approach for combination treatment with radiotherapy. Accordingly, clinical trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors have been initiated to preserve bladder for muscle invasive bladder cancer patients using radiation and immune checkpoint inhibitors with/without chemotherapy. The objective of this review is to summarize the evidence of trimodal therapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer during the past decade and to discuss the future directions of bladder preservation therapy in immuno-oncology era.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with inferior vena cava tumor thrombus (IVCTT) is rare and regarded as an advanced disease stage with poor prognosis. Treatment effect data regarding HCC with IVCTT is scarce and clear evidence has not been established. This study, therefore, aims to examine the safety and effectiveness of proton beam therapy (PBT) for HCC patients with IVCTT. METHODS From January 2005 to December 2014, a total of 21 HCC patients with IVCTT were analyzed. The total irradiation doses ranged from 50 to 74 (median 72.6) gray relative biological effectiveness. RESULTS The follow-up period was 4-120 (median 21) months. Regarding acute toxicities, dermatitis of grade 1-2 was observed in all patients, while no grade 3 or higher late toxicity events were encountered. The overall survival (OS) rates for all patients were 62%, 33%, and 19% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. No local recurrences for the treated lesions, including IVCTT, were observed. According to univariate analysis, IVCTT extension type was not associated with prognosis, but only tumor number significantly affected the OS rate (p = 0.003). For 10 single lesion patients, the longest survival time was 120 months with OS rates of 82%, 64%, and 36% at 1, 2, and 3 years, respectively. CONCLUSION PBT is safe and effective for HCC patients with IVCTT, especially those with single lesion status. PBT is an important treatment option for HCC patients with IVCTT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to identify dynamic CT features that can be used for prediction of local recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after proton beam therapy (PBT). METHODS We retrospectively retrieved CT scans of patients with PBT-treated HCC, taken between January 2004 and December 2016. 17 recurrent lesions and 34 non-recurrent lesions were retrieved. The attenuation difference between irradiated tumor and irradiated parenchyma (ADHCC-IP) was compared in the two groups by using the Mann-Whitney U test. Cut-off value of ADHCC-IP was estimated by using the Youden index. RESULTS The follow-up time after PBT initiation ranged from 374 to 2402 days (median, 1069 days) in recurrent lesions, and 418 to 2923 days (median, 1091.5 days) in non-recurrent lesions (p = 0.892). The time until appearance of local recurrence after PBT initiation ranged from 189 to 2270 days (median, 497 days). ADHCC-IP of recurrent lesions [mean, -21.8 Hounsfield units (HU); from -95 to -31 HU] was significantly greater than that of non-recurrent lesions (mean, -51.7 HU; from -117 to -12 HU) at 1-2 years in portal venous phase (p = 0.039). 5-year local tumor control rates were 0.93 and 0.56 in lesions with ADHCC-IP at 1-2 years in PVP < -55 and ≥ -55 HU, respectively. CONCLUSION The attenuation difference between irradiated HCC and irradiated liver parenchyma in portal venous phase at 1-2 years after PBT can predict long-term local recurrence of HCC after treatment. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE We identified a cut-off value for contrast enhancement of HCC after PBT that could predict future local recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the efficacy and safety of proton beam therapy (PBT) for the treatment of stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS AND MATERIALS Six hundred sixty-nine patients with 682 tumors histologically or clinically diagnosed stage I NSCLC according to the seventh edition of Union for International Cancer Control who received passive-scattering PBT from April 2004 and December 2013 in Japan were retrospectively reviewed to analyze survival, local control, and toxicities. RESULTS Of 669 patients, 486 (72.6%) were men, with a median age of 76 years (range, 42-94 years). NSCLC was histologically confirmed in 440 patients (65.7%). Clinical T stages included T1a (n = 265; 38.9%), T1b (n = 216; 31.7%), and T2a (n = 201; 29.4%). The total irradiation doses of PBT ranged from 74.4 to 131.3 biological effective dose GyE (median, 109.6 biological effective dose GyE). The median follow-up period was 38.2 months (range, 0.6-154.5 months) for all patients. The 3-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates for all patients were 79.5% and 64.1%, respectively. For patients with stage IA tumors, the 3-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 82.8% and 70.6%, respectively, and the corresponding rates for patients with stage IB tumors were 70.8% and 47.3%, respectively. The 3-year local progression-free rates for all, stage IA, and stage IB patients were 89.8%, 93.5%, and 79.4%, respectively. The incidence of grade 2, 3, 4, and 5 pneumonitis was 9.8%, 1.0%, 0%, and 0.7%, respectively. The incidence of grade ≥3 dermatitis was 0.4%. No grade 4 or severe adverse events, other than pneumonitis, were observed. CONCLUSIONS PBT appears to yield acceptable survival rates, with a low rate of toxicities.

Abstract
Fractionated proton beam radiotherapy is spreading worldwide these days. However, biological data of sub-lethal damage recovery (SLDR) after proton irradiation is not known yet. We here conducted split-dose experiments (20-360 min intervals) to clarify SLDR kinetics, and also compared the kinetics between cells with different repairability of DNA double-strand breaks. CHO and 51D1 cell lines but not V3 cell line showed significant SLDR, which reached plateau in 4-6 h. The recovery rates and recovery halftime of SLDR after X-rays were significantly higher and shorter than proton beams for CHO and 51D1 cells, respectively. Additionally, the frequency of remaining gamma-H2AX foci after two fractions was remarkably higher for X-rays than proton beams. These data suggest that there is a difference between proton beam and X-rays in SLDR and the retained DNA double-strand breaks after split-dose irradiation.

Abstract
Structural plasticity of dendritic spines, which underlies higher brain functions including learning and memory, is dynamically regulated by the actin cytoskeleton and its associated proteins. Drebrin A is an F-actin-binding protein preferentially expressed in the brain and localized in the dendritic spines of mature neurons. Isoform conversion from drebrin E to drebrin A and accumulation of the latter in dendritic spines occurs during synapse maturation. We have previously demonstrated that drebrin A plays a pivotal role in spine morphogenesis and plasticity. However, it is unclear whether drebrin A plays a specific role in processes required for structural plasticity, and whether drebrin E can substitute in this role. To answer these questions, we analyzed mutant mice (named DAKO mice), in which isoform conversion from drebrin E to drebrin A is disrupted. In DAKO mouse brain, drebrin E continues to be expressed throughout life instead of drebrin A. Electrophysiological studies using hippocampal slices revealed that long-term potentiation of CA1 synapses was impaired in adult DAKO mice, but not in adolescents. In parallel with this age-dependent impairment, DAKO mice exhibited impaired hippocampus-dependent fear learning in an age-dependent manner; the impairment was evident in adult mice, but not in adolescents. In addition, histological investigation revealed that the spine length of the apical dendrite of CA1 pyramidal cells was significantly longer in adult DAKO mice than in wild-type mice. Our data indicate that the roles of drebrin E and drebrin A in brain function are different from each other, that the isoform conversion of drebrin is critical, and that drebrin A is indispensable for normal synaptic plasticity and hippocampus-dependent fear memory in the adult brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral sumatriptan administration has been reported to delay gastric emptying after liquid meals. The aim of this study was to determine whether delayed gastric emptying is caused by enhanced gastric accommodation, impaired antral contractions, or both using ultrasonography. METHODS Ten healthy volunteers were enrolled in this randomized two-way crossover study. After overnight fasting, the subjects received the liquid meal 60 min after ingesting a 50 mg sumatriptan tablet with 50 mL of water or 50 mL of water alone (control). The cross-sectional area of the proximal stomach was measured in a supine position after every 100 mL. The frequency and amplitude of the antral contractions were measured in a slightly backward sitting position. The intragastric distribution of the liquid meal was assessed by calculating the proximal stomach/distal stomach ratio (prox/distal ratio). KEY RESULTS The cross-sectional area after drinking 100, 200, and 300 mL of the liquid meal (oral sumatriptan vs control) was 34.49 vs 15.11 cm(2) (P = 0.0051), 48.00 vs 30.61 cm(2) (P = 0.0166), and 58.67 vs 47.19 cm(2) (P = 0.0125), respectively. There was no significant difference in the amplitude of contractions, contraction cycle, motility index, and prox/distal ratio (97.15 vs 97.93%, P = 0.0745; 19.42 vs 19.5 s, P= 0.8590; and 887.58 vs 889.22, P = 0.5751; 9.75 vs 8.41, P = 0.8785; respectively). CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES Oral sumatriptan administration enhanced gastric accommodation after the ingestion of liquid nutrients, but had no significant effect on antral contractions or intragastric distribution in healthy subjects.

Abstract
Our aim was to investigate the influence of microgravity on the sensitivity of the skin to mechanical stimulation, epidermal thickness, peripheral nerve density in the upper dermis, and serum levels of a stress marker in a rat hindlimb suspension (HS) model. Thirty 8-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: HS, n=10; sham HS, n=10; control, n=10. The suspension system was attached to rat tails in both the HS and sham-HS groups, but the hindlimbs were suspended only in the HS group. The HS and sham-HS groups were treated for 4 weeks. In behavioral tests using von-Frey filaments (n=5 in each group), mechanical hypersensitivity developed in the HS and sham HS groups. Serum corticosterone levels increased significantly in the HS and sham HS groups compared to the control group, and no changes in epidermal thickness or peripheral nerve density were observed immediately after the removal of HS (n=5 in each group). These data indicated that the mechanical hypersensitivity observed in the HS group was not caused by microgravity or inactivity, but rather by restraint stress. We suggest that microgravity does not affect skin sensitivity and histology in these animals.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate histological changes in skin tissue accompanying immobilization-induced hypersensitivity. Changes in mechanical sensitivity, epidermal thickness, and peripheral nerve profiles in the upper dermis were examined in glabrous skin of rat hind paw after 1, 2, and 4 weeks of ankle joint immobilization by plaster casts. Induction of mechanical hypersensitivity was confirmed after 2 and 4 weeks of joint immobilization. Epidermal thinning and increase in peripheral nerve profiles were observed in skin tissues in immobilized rats. The time course of epidermal thinning and increase in peripheral nerve profiles were similar closely to that of hypersensitivity, with significant differences between the immobilized and control rats after 2 weeks of immobilization, which became even more remarkable at 4 weeks of immobilization. These findings suggest that joint immobilization by cast induces epidermal thinning and increases peripheral nerve profiles in the upper dermis and that these changes might be partly responsible for immobilization-induced hypersensitivity.

Abstract
AIM A case-controlled study was performed to investigate the association of colonic angiectasia with other conditions and to identify risk factors for bleeding. METHOD Information was collected from all patients who underwent colonoscopy at our hospital between January 2008 and December 2010. Data on 90 individuals with angiectasia [58 men; median age 69 (26-92) years] were compared with those of 180 individuals without angiectasia, matched for gender and age. RESULTS Multivariate analysis showed that occult gastrointestinal bleeding [odds ratio (OR) 2.523; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.238-5.142], liver cirrhosis (OR 13.195; 95% CI 3.502-49.711), chronic renal failure (OR 6.796; 95% CI 1.598-28.904) and valvular heart disease (OR 6.425; 95% CI 1.028-40.165) were identified as significant predictors of the presence of colonic angiectasia. Eight patients were diagnosed with bleeding from angiectasia. Cardiovascular disease (OR 22.047; 95% CI 1.063-457.345) and multiple angiectasias (P-value 0.0019) were identified as significant risk factors for active bleeding. Medication and a large size were not associated with an increased risk of bleeding. CONCLUSION The presence of colonic angiectasia was associated with valvular heart disease, liver cirrhosis and chronic renal failure. Valvular heart disease and multiple lesions increased the risk of bleeding.

Abstract
The radiological and functional outcomes of two groups of comminuted intraarticular fractures of the distal radius that were treated with wrist-bridging external fixation, with or without an alternating electric current stimulation (EF + ES or EF group, respectively), were compared. The radial length, radial inclination and palmar tilt were measured on radiographs taken immediately after removal of wrist external fixator and also after bone union had occurred. Furthermore, active range of motion was compared at the final consultation. Bridging callus was observed earlier postoperatively in the EF + ES group than in the EF group. The radial length and palmar tilt were significantly larger, and the loss of radial length and radial inclination significantly smaller, in the EF + ES group. We believe that callus maturation is enhanced by alternating electric current stimulation, which enables the early removal of external fixator.
