Abstract
PURPOSE Due to limited imaging options, the visualization of a local relapse of prostate cancer used to pose a considerable challenge. However, since the integration of 18F-PSMA-1007-PET/CT into the clinic, a relapsed tumor can now easily be detected by hybrid imaging. The present study aimed to evaluate and map the allocate relapse in a large cohort of prostate cancer patients focusing on individual patient management conclusions for radiation therapy. PROCEDURES The current study included 135 men with prostate cancer after primary treatment who underwent 18F-PSMA-1007-PET/CT due to biochemical relapse detecting a local relapse. Imaging data were reassessed and analyzed with regard to relapse locations. For the correlation of tumor foci with clinical data, we used binary logistic regression models as well as the Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS In total, 69.6% of all patients (mean age: 65 years) underwent prostatectomy while 30.4% underwent radiation therapy. PET imaging detected most frequently a unifocal relapse (72.6%). There was a statistically significantly higher rate of ipsilateral cases among the relapsed tumors. Comparing both treatment approaches, tumors relapsed most commonly within the posterior region after surgery and transition/peripheral zone after radiation therapy, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The present study confirms that 18F-PSMA-1007-PET/CT is highly suitable for the localization and allocation of a local relapse in patients with prostate cancer. The data enable further optimizing dose prescriptions and target volume delineations of radiation therapy in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to determine the pattern of isolated local recurrences (ILR) in women with stage II-III hormone receptor-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 breast cancer (HR + /HER2-BC) after 10-year follow-up. METHODS UNICANCER-PACS 01 and PACS 04 trials included 5,008 women with T1-T3 and N1-N3 to evaluate the efficacy of different anthracycline ± taxanes-containing regimens after modified mastectomy or lumpectomy plus axillary lymph node dissection. We analyzed the data from 2,932 women with HR + /HER2- BC to evaluate the cumulative incidence of ILR and describe the factors associated with ILR. RESULTS After a median follow-up of 9.1 years (95% CI 9.0-9.2 years), the cumulative incidence of ILR increased steadily between 1 and 10 years from 0.2% to 2.5%. The multivariable analysis showed that older age (subhazard ratios [sHR] = 0.95, 95% CI 0.92-0.99) and mastectomy (sHR = 0.39, 95% CI 0.17-0.86) were associated with lower risk of ILR, and no adjuvant endocrine therapy (sHR = 2.73, 95% CI 1.32 7-5.67) with increased risk of ILR. CONCLUSION In this population of high-risk patients with localized HR + /HER2- BC, the risk of ILR was low but remained constant over 10 years. Younger age at diagnosis, breast-conserving surgery, and adjuvant endocrine therapy were independent risk factors of ILR.

Abstract
Introduction Numerous prospective studies have shown that the incorporation of genomic assays into clinical practice significantly impacts the choice of adjuvant treatments for patients with early-stage breast cancer. However, the same evidence does not exist for the treatment of locoregional recurrences. Hypothesis and objectives The main objective of this work was to identify the clinicopathological, molecular, and genetic parameters that allow patients to be more precisely categorised into risk groups, in order to create a locoregional recurrence riskclassification tool, the PersonalRT27. Material and methods To create PersonalRT27, we retrospective assessed the variables of patients with early breast cancer (stages I or II) who had undergone the OncotypeDx ® and MammaPrint ® genetic tests. These variables and factors included in the tests were categorised and weighted to obtain scores between 1 and 5 pointsto represent a lower or higher risk of relapse, respectively, based on these factors and as determined by the researchers. Results The mean follow-up time was 60.5 months (range 25–96 months); locoregional progression-free survival at the time of the analysis was 98.4%, and overall survival was 97.5%, of which 0.6% of the deaths had been cancer specific. The area under the curve for the PersonalRT27 was 0.76 (95% CI [0.70, 0.81]), sensitivity was 78%, and the specificity was 58.9%. We used these factors to create an inhospital web-based nomogram. Conclusions The PersonalRT27 is a novel tool that integrates clinical-pathological, molecular, and genetic parameters. External and independent validation will be required to implement its clinical use. Genomic assays impact the choice of adjuvant systemic treatment for patients with early-stage breast cancer. However, the same evidence does not exist for decision making regarding adjuvant locoregional therapy. In other words, can the clinically approved genomic assays predict the risk of locoregional recurrende as a primary event. The main objective of this work was to identify the clinicopathological, molecular, and genetic parameters that allow patients to be more precisely categorised into risk groups, in order to create a locoregional recurrence risk-classification tool, the PersonalRT27.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study is to correlate locoregional relapse with radiation therapy volumes in patients with rectal cancer treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiation in the ACCORD 12/0405-PRODIGE 02 trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified patients who had a locoregional relapse included in ACCORD 12's database. We studied their clinical, radiological, and dosimetric data to analyze the dose received by the area of relapse. RESULTS 39 patients (6.5%) presented 54 locoregional relapses. Most of the relapses were in-field (n = 21, 39%) or marginal (n = 13, 24%) with only six out-of-field (11%), 14 could not be evaluated. Most of them happened in the anastomosis, the perirectal space, and the usual lymphatic drainage areas (presacral and posterior lateral lymph nodes). Only patients treated for a lower rectum adenocarcinoma had a relapse outside of the treated volume. 2 patients with T4 tumors extending into anterior pelvic organs had relapses in anterior lateral and external iliac lymph nodes. CONCLUSIONS Lowering the upper limit of the treatment field for low rectal tumors increased the risk of out of the field recurrence. For very low tumors, including the inguinal lymph nodes in the treated volume should be considered. Recording locoregional involvement, treated volumes, and relapse areas in future prospective trials would be of paramount interest to refine delineation guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Since dose escalation allowed by image-guided adaptive brachytherapy (IGABT) in locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC), local relapses have become a rare event. Only scarce data are available on the outcome of patients experiencing a local relapse after IGABT. METHODS Between 2004 and 2016, all consecutive patients treated at Gustave Roussy Institute for LACC and receiving concomitant chemoradiation and IGABT were analysed. Clinical and treatment-related prognostic factors for survival after local relapse were searched, in order to potentially identify patients requiring salvage treatment. RESULTS Two hundred and fifty-nine patients were treated during this period. With a median follow-up of 4.1 years, 10.8% (n = 28) had a local relapse. Among these patients, 53.6% had synchronous lymph nodes or distant metastatic relapse and only 13 patients (5% of all patients) had isolated local relapse. After local relapse, median survival was 47 months and three patients were alive at last follow-up. Only three patients with local relapse could receive salvage surgery (10.7%). Metastases occurrence and pelvic wall involvement were the main contraindications (67.9%) for salvage surgery. Among the three patients treated with surgery, two are still alive at last follow-up without significant complication. Improved survival was observed among the two patients who could have surgery (p = .02). Local progression led to serious symptoms in 75% of patients. Only the time interval between brachytherapy and relapse (<1 year) was prognostic for 2-year overall survival (p = .005). CONCLUSION Salvage surgery is feasible in a very low number of highly selected patients with local relapse following IGABT. Local failure is a major cause of severe local symptoms, confirming that every effort should be done to achieve long-term local control through dose escalation.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed at modeling the risk of local relapse and death from colorectal cancer after the first treatment and its related factors using multi-state models. BACKGROUND In cancer studies modeling the course of disease regarding events which happen to patients is of great importance. By considering death as the final endpoint while incorporating the intermediate events, multi-state models have been developed. METHODS This was a historical cohort study in which 235 patients with colorectal cancer, who referred to Omid Hospital in Mashhad between 2006 and 2011, were studied and followed up until 2017. The transition probabilities to death due to metastasis with or without experiencing local relapse and variables related to them were determined using the non-Markovian multi-state model in three states of disease, local relapse and death. RESULTS The probability of not experiencing either of the events, just relapse and death in the first 5 years were 0.45, 0.09 and 0.46 respectively. If patients did not experience any event in the first year of treatment, the probability of relapse and death before the fifth year were 0.04 and 0.33 respectively and if they did experience relapse during this time, the probability of death by the fifth year was 0.62. The stage of cancer was associated with relapse and death, while ethnicity and history of addiction were related to death without relapse and BMI had a significant relationship with death after relapse (p<0.05). CONCLUSION Risk of death in patients with colorectal cancer depends on local relapse and the time between them.

Abstract
RATIONALE The impact of biopsying Wilms tumour (WT) at diagnosis on assigning the tumour stage and recommended treatment remains controversial. To address this important question, we analysed the potential association of all types of biopsy with local recurrence in patients treated in the SIOP WT 2001 trial, where needle biopsy was permitted without 'upstaging' the tumour to stage III. Only open biopsy required treatment as stage III. METHODS Among 2971 patients with unilateral WT (stages I-IV), 420 relapsed (139 local). Risk factors for recurrence were analysed by Cox proportional hazard methods. RESULTS Biopsy was performed in 969 of 2971 (33%) patients (64% cutting needle, 30% fine needle aspiration [FNA] and 6% open biopsy). Biopsied patients were older, with larger tumours and a greater proportion with high-risk histology. In multivariate analysis that included all factors associated with local recurrence in univariate analysis, only high-risk histology (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.32; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.58-3.42, p=<0.0001), age≥2 years (HR = 2.24; 95% CI: 1.22-4.09, p = 0.01) and preoperative tumour volume (HR = 1.07 per 100 ml; 95% CI: 1.02-1.12, p = 0.01) were significant. The HR for the association of local recurrence and event-free and overall survival with biopsy was not significant (HR = 1.4; 95% CI: 0.9-2.17, p = 0.13; HR = 1.1; 95% CI: 0.85-1.42, p = 0.46 and HR = 1.13; 95% CI: 0.79-1.62, p = 0.51, respectively). These results were not materially different whether FNA or open biopsy were included in the biopsy group or not. CONCLUSIONS This post hoc analysis provides some reassurance that needle biopsy is not an independent adverse factor for either local recurrence or survival after adjustment for all relevant risk factors. Needle biopsy should not be an automatic criterion to 'upstage' WT.

Abstract
Objective Breast conservation therapy (BCT) for female patients with multifocal or multicentric (MF/MC) breast cancer remains controversial. The purpose of the present meta-analysis was to explore whether BCT was feasible for female patients with MF/MC breast cancer and to compare the results of treatment with those of female patients with unifocal breast cancer who underwent BCT and female patients with MF/MC breast cancer who underwent mastectomy. Methods Online databases, including PubMed and Embase, were independently searched from inception to January 2018 and reviewed by two authors. The present meta-analysis compared local relapse (LR) of BCT versus mastectomy for patients with MF/MC breast cancer and LR of patients with unifocal breast cancer versus patients with MF/MC breast cancer who underwent BCT. Ten studies comprising 19,272 patients were included. Results The cumulative incidence of LR was 5.6% (65/1,163) for MF/MC disease treated with BCT, 4.2% (750/17,656) for unifocal disease treated with BCT, and 2.0% (9/453) for MF/MC disease treated with mastectomy. Thus, the cumulative incidence of LR for MF/MC patients treated with BCT was significantly higher than for mastectomy (p < 0.001). However, the forest plot analysis showed no significant differences in LR between BCT and mastectomy procedures (OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 0.49-3.00, p = 0.67, I<sup>2</sup> = 0%). Compared with the unifocal group treated with BCT, BCT for MF/MC breast cancer showed a significant difference in LR (OR = 2.25, 95% CI = 1.48-3.42, p = 0.0001, I<sup>2</sup> = 0%). Conclusion The LR of BCT for patients with MF/MC breast cancer was higher than that of BCT for patients with unifocal breast cancer. However, no significant difference was found in the incidence of LR between the BCT group and the mastectomy group in patients with MF/MC breast cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the oncological safety of nipple-areola complex (NAC) sparing mastectomy in breast cancer patients. METHODS From 2010 to 2015, 518 breast cancer patients were submitted to NAC sparing mastectomy. Breast MRI and intraoperative assessment of the subareolar (SD) and proximal (ND) nipple ducts were performed to predict NAC involvement. Significant associations between pre- and postoperative variables with SD/ND involvement and with the risk of local recurrence were retrospectively investigated. RESULTS SD/ND were involved in 26.1% of the cases. Final pathology of SD/ND was predicted by tumor-NAC distance at MRI and intraoperative pathology with 75 and 93% accuracy, respectively. NAC involvement was more frequent in case of positive ND than positive SD (68.3 vs. 38.3%; p = 0.003). Fourteen (2.7%) local relapses developed over a mean follow-up of 33 months. Ki-67 ≥25% (p = 0.002) and high tumor grade (p = 0.027) correlated with local recurrence. Most relapses developed in the subcutaneous tissue of the quadrant where the primary tumor was located (12/14; 85.7%). No local relapses occurred in patients who received post-mastectomy radiotherapy as compared to patients who did not, although they had a higher rate of positive surgical margins (40.5 vs. 16.2%; p = 0.000). CONCLUSIONS NAC involvement can be predicted by MRI and intraoperative pathology of ND/SD. Local recurrences after NAC sparing mastectomy almost invariably develop in the same quadrant where the primary tumor was located and in highly proliferative tumors.

Abstract
Purpose 11C–choline PET/CT is a widely-used tool for the diagnostic of prostate cancer (PCa). In literature, a great variability of local relapse (LR) detection rate is reported. The aim of this study is to provide positivity criteria for 11C–choline PET/CT detection of LR in patients who had surgery for PCa and presented prostate specific antigen (PSA) failure. Methods Sixty patients radically treated for PCa and presenting PSA failure were retrospectively analysed. Two Nuclear Medicine Physicians revised the 11C–choline PET/CT scans and defined by consensus if even mild focal uptake was present in the prostate bed (PB) and bladder-urethral junction (BUJ) along midline, regardless the previous report results. The results were subsequently correlated with a clinical and radiological follow up (FU) of 1 to 2 year and with TNM staging, Gleason score (GS), PSA level at relapse, radiotherapy (RT) and hormone therapy (HT) after surgery. Results There was focal uptake in 22/60 patients; 11 of them were true positive and 11 false positive. The PSA level showed a tight connection with the true positivity/negativity of Choline scan. Most of true positive cases (10/11 patients) presented a PSA ≥ 1 ng/ml, while approximately half of the false positive cases (5/11 patients) presented PSA below 1 ng/ml. The other variables were not correlated to Choline detection rate for LR. Conclusions This study shows that an even mild focal uptake of Choline in the PB and BUJ along midline must be considered suspicious for LR in patients radically treated for PCa, especially if they are presenting with PSA level > 1 ng/ml.

Abstract
PURPOSE The positron emission tomography (PET) tracer 68Ga-PSMA-11, targeting the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), is rapidly excreted into the urinary tract. This leads to significant radioactivity in the bladder, which may limit the PET-detection of local recurrence (LR) of prostate cancer (PC) after radical prostatectomy (RP), developing in close proximity to the bladder. Here, we analyze if there is additional value of multi-parametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) compared to the 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET-component of PET/CT or PET/MRI to detect LR. METHODS One hundred and nineteen patients with biochemical recurrence after prior RP underwent both hybrid 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET/CTlow-dose (1 h p.i.) and -PET/MRI (2-3 h p.i.) including a mpMRI protocol of the prostatic bed. The comparison of both methods was restricted to the abdomen with focus on LR (McNemar). Bladder-LR distance and recurrence size were measured in axial T2w-TSE. A logistic regression was performed to determine the influence of these variables on detectability in 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET. Standardized-uptake-value (SUVmean) quantification of LR was performed. RESULTS There were 93/119 patients that had at least one pathologic finding. In addition, 18/119 Patients (15.1%) were diagnosed with a LR in mpMRI of PET/MRI but only nine were PET-positive in PET/CT and PET/MRI. This mismatch was statistically significant (p = 0.004). Detection of LR using the PET-component was significantly influenced by proximity to the bladder (p = 0.028). The PET-pattern of LR-uptake was classified into three types (1): separated from bladder; (2): fuses with bladder, and (3): obliterated by bladder). The size of LRs did not affect PET-detectability (p = 0.84), mean size was 1.7 ± 0.69 cm long axis, 1.2 ± 0.46 cm short-axis. SUVmean in nine men was 8.7 ± 3.7 (PET/CT) and 7.0 ± 4.2 (PET/MRI) but could not be quantified in the remaining nine cases (obliterated by bladder). CONCLUSION The present study demonstrates additional value of hybrid 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET/MRI by gaining complementary diagnostic information compared to the 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET/CTlow-dose for patients with LR of PC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Indications and surgical techniques for pulmonary metastasectomy (PME) are controversially discussed issues. Laser-assisted surgery (LAS) is a recent innovation that has been advocated especially in patients with multiple pulmonary metastases (PM). However, there are hardly any studies comparing surgical outcomes after laser-assisted and conventional resection. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the value of LAS in a larger study population. MATERIALS & METHODS A retrospective analysis was completed on 178 consecutive patients undergoing 236 PMEs at a single center between 2010 and 2015. The main endpoint was survival. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and survival rates were compared with the log rank test. Follow-up was done with special attention to the development of recurrent PM. Local relapse was defined as a recurrent metastasis in direct relation to the previously resected area according to CT scan comparisons. RESULTS LAS was performed on 256 metastases in 99 patients, non-laser-assisted surgery (NLAS) on 127 metastases in 79 patients. 5-year-survival rates were 69.3% in all patients, 65.7% after LAS and 73.6% after NLAS. There was no statistically significant survival difference after LAS or NLAS (p = 0.41). The rate of local relapse was 0.8% after LAS vs 3.1% after NLAS (p = 0.073). CONCLUSION Despite a larger number of negative predictors for survival in LAS patients, overall survival (OS) was similar in the compared groups. There was also a trend for a lower risk of local relapses after LAS. Therefore, LAS should be considered a promising method for PME.

Abstract
Background Postoperative radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is the standard in the management of breast cancer. The optimal timing for starting postoperative radiation therapy has not yet been well defined. In this study, we aimed to evaluate if the time interval between BCS and postoperative radiotherapy is related to the incidence of local and distant relapse in women with early node-negative breast cancer not receiving chemotherapy. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data concerning 615 women treated from 1984 to 2010, divided into three groups according to the timing of radiotherapy: ≤60, 61–120, and >120 days. To estimate the presence of imbalanced distribution of prognostic and treatment factors among the three groups, the χ2 test or the Fisher exact test were performed. Local relapse-free survival, distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), and disease-free survival (DFS) were estimated with the Kaplan–Meier method, and multivariate Cox regression was used to test for the independent effect of timing of RT after adjusting for known confounding factors. The median follow-up time was 65.8 months. Results Differences in distribution of age, type of hormone therapy, and year of diagnosis were statistically significant. At 15-year follow-up, we failed to detect a significant correlation between time interval and the risk of local relapse (p = 0.09) both at the univariate and the multivariate analysis. The DMFS and the DFS univariate analysis showed a decreased outcome when radiotherapy was started early (p = 0.041 and p = 0.046), but this was not confirmed at the multivariate analysis (p = 0.406 and p = 0.102, respectively). Conclusions Our results show that no correlation exists between the timing of postoperative radiotherapy and the risk of local relapse or distant metastasis development in a particular subgroup of women with node-negative early breast cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to investigate the pattern of telomere length and telomerase expression in cancer tissues and the surrounding mucosa (SM), as markers of field cancerization and clinical outcome in patients successfully treated for with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). MATERIALS AND METHODS This investigation was a prospective cohort study. Telomere length and levels of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) transcripts were quantified by real-time PCR in cancer tissues and SM from 139 and 90 patients with HNSCC, respectively. RESULTS No correlation was found between age and telomere length in SM. Patients with short telomeres in SM had a higher risk of mucosal failure (adjusted HR=4.29). Patients with high TERT levels in cancer tissues had a higher risk of regional failure (HR=2.88), distant failure (HR=7.27), worse disease-specific survival (HR for related death=2.62) but not mucosal failure. High-risk patients having both short telomeres in SM and high levels of TERT in cancer showed a significantly lower overall survival (HR=2.46). CONCLUSIONS Overall these findings suggest that telomere shortening in SM is a marker of field cancerization and may precede reactivation of TERT. Short telomeres in SM are strongly prognostic of mucosal failure, whereas TERT levels in cancer tissues increase with the aggressiveness of the disease and are prognostic of tumor spread.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Desmoplastic melanoma (DM) is a rare form of melanoma, often with atypical and potentially misleading aspects that result in difficult and late diagnosis. Because of the high likelihood of local relapse, practitioners must have a good knowledge of such tumours. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study of the activities of 3 centres in the Bouches-du-Rhône region between 1998 and 2010 enabled us to collate 23 cases of DM and analyse the clinical and histological features of the disease as well as patient survival. RESULTS Fifteen of the 23 patients (65.2%) were male with a median age of 64.4 years. Mean Breslow thickness was 7.56 mm. The numbers of AJCC (American Joint Committee for Cancer) stages I, II, III, IV were respectively 4.1, 66.7, 20.8 and 4.1%. Thirteen patients presented relapse, with a mean time to onset of 21 months. The initial relapse involved the skin in 1 case, the lymph nodes in 2 cases, the organs in 5 cases, the organs and subcutaneous region in 1 case, the organs and lymph nodes in 2 cases, and the organs, lymph nodes and skin in 1 case. DISCUSSION While DM presents a higher rate of local relapse than classical melanoma, this trend appears to subside in the case of thick DM, in which relapse also involves the lymph nodes and/or organs.

Abstract
RATIONALE The UKW3 trial compared biopsy/pre-operative chemotherapy versus immediate nephrectomy and afforded the opportunity to examine the influence of percutaneous retroperitoneal biopsy and other factors on local and distant relapse of Wilms tumour (WT). METHODS Patients with unilateral WT (stages I-IV) excluding metachronous relapse or early progressive disease were eligible. Metastatic and 'inoperable' tumours were biopsied electively. 'Local' was defined as relapse within the abdomen, except for liver metastases considered as 'distant' relapse, together with other haematogenous routes. Uni- and multivariable analyses estimated the risk factors for relapse. RESULTS Overall, 285/635 (44.9%) patients had a biopsy. With a median follow-up of 10.1 years, 35 (5.5%) patients experienced a 'local', 15 a combined (2.4%) and 60 (9.4%) a 'distant' relapse. On univariate analysis, biopsy, anaplasia and tumour size were associated with an increased risk of local relapse. On multivariable analysis, anaplasia and tumour size remained significant for local relapse whereas the elevated risk of biopsy (hazards ratio (HR) = 1.80: 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.97-3.32, p = 0.060) was marginal. Age, anaplasia, tumour size, lymph nodes metastases and stage, but not biopsy, were individually associated with increased risk of distant relapse but only age and anaplasia remained significant following multivariable analysis. CONCLUSIONS The UKW3 trial provides some reassurance that biopsy should not automatically lead to 'upstaging' of WT. Further assessment of this controversial area is required. Comparison of local relapse rates in a multinational trial in which the United Kingdom (UK) continued the practice of routinely biopsying all patients in contrast to the standard European approach will afford this opportunity and is planned.
