Abstract
PURPOSE In a previous study of treatment for advanced colorectal cancer, the LV5FU2 regimen, comprising leucovorin (LV) plus bolus and infusional fluorouracil (5FU) every 2 weeks, was superior to the standard North Central Cancer Treatment Group/Mayo Clinic 5-day bolus 5FU/LV regimen. This phase III study investigated the effect of combining oxaliplatin with LV5FU2, with progression-free survival as the primary end point. PATIENTS AND METHODS Four hundred twenty previously untreated patients with measurable disease were randomized to receive a 2-hour infusion of LV (200 mg/m2/d) followed by a 5FU bolus (400 mg/m2/d) and 22-hour infusion (600 mg/m2/d) for 2 consecutive days every 2 weeks, either alone or together with oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 as a 2-hour infusion on day 1. RESULTS Patients allocated to oxaliplatin plus LV5FU2 had significantly longer progression-free survival (median, 9.0 v 6.2 months; P = .0003) and better response rate (50.7% v 22.3%; P = .0001) when compared with the control arm. The improvement in overall survival did not reach significance (median, 16.2 v 14.7 months; P = .12). LV5FU2 plus oxaliplatin gave higher frequencies of National Cancer Institute common toxicity criteria grade 3/4 neutropenia (41.7% v 5.3% of patients), grade 3/4 diarrhea (11.9% v 5.3%), and grade 3 neurosensory toxicity (18.2% v 0%), but this did not result in impairment of quality of life (QoL). Survival without disease progression or deterioration in global health status was longer in patients allocated to oxaliplatin treatment (P = .004). CONCLUSION The LV5FU2-oxaliplatin combination seems beneficial as first-line therapy in advanced colorectal cancer, demonstrating a prolonged progression-free survival with acceptable tolerability and maintenance of QoL.

Abstract
A 57-year-old man was admitted with complaints of progressive anorexia, weight loss and right flank pain. He had been treated for basal-cell carcinoma of the skin 19 years before. On physical examination, eight moles in the face, back and left thigh were found along with palmar pits. In addition, a painful induration in his right thigh was evident. Biopsy proved that six moles were basal-cell carcinomas and the thigh mass a high-grade leiomyosarcoma. Computed tomographs revealed multiple metastases in the lungs and the liver. The patient was treated with epirubicin, with partial response, and subsequently with ifosfamide. He died 17 months after diagnosis. Whereas the world literature records several cases of soft tissue tumors in patients with nevoid basal-cell carcinoma syndrome, this is the first report of a simultaneous occurrence of leiomyosarcoma and nevoid basal-cell carcinoma syndrome.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose : Molecular classification of breast cancer (BC) through immunohistochemistry classifies patients globally in 4 subtypes with similar features and prognosis. The present study was designed to compare features of BC subtypes in early versus locally advanced clinical stages. A secondary objective was compare molecular subtypes of the primary vs recurrences.
Methods : The study included 1621 patients with non-metastatic invasive BC that were consecutively diagnosed at Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre, Madrid, between 1997 and 2007. Luminal A was defined as ER+ and PR+, HER2−negative and Ki67 < 14%. Luminal B was defined as PR-negative, HER2−positive or ki67≥14%. HER2 was defined as ER and PR-negative, and HER2−positive.Triple negative (TN) were tumors with ER, PR and HER2 -negativity. Clinicopathological characteristics and outcomes were retrospectively reviewed. Variables were compared with the X2 test, and survival curves were evaluated with Kaplan-Meier method.
Results : Most patients were diagnosed as T1 (48%) and T2 (39.7%) clinical stages, and classified as Luminal B (49%) and Luminal A (29%). GIII frequency increased from T1 to T3-4 in Luminal A (p=0.002), and Luminal B (p=0.051) subtypes, but not in HER2 (p=0.867) or TN (p=0.53).
Molecular subtypes carry significant different prognosis (DFS and OS) in all T stages except for T1a cases. When T3-4 and T1 stages of the same molecular subtype were compared, a significant shorter DFS were found for more advanced stages in the Luminal A (p=0.0002), Luminal B (0.0001) and TN (0.0017), but not for HER2 (p=0.54) subtype. And, similar results were found for OS.
We compared molecular subtypes in the primary tumor and in the metastatic site in 83 cases (excluding contralateral recurrences) and found change of phenotype in 54% of the cases. Changes from Luminal A to a more aggressive phenotype were more frequent than in the opposite situation (14 vs 2 cases).
Conclusion : Despite the molecular classification of early-stage BC that classifies patients in well-defined prognostic subgroups, tumors are continuously changing and tumor behavior becomes more aggressive through progression. Therefore, even tumors with favorable phenotype could loss their good prognosis in locally advanced stages. Obtention of tumor tissue at metastatic sites is also mandatory to a better selection of systemic therapies in relapsed patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose : Breast Cancer (BC) is a genetic, heterogeneous disease and has a remarkable variability according to racial factors. Hypothetic explanations for these disparities include differences in tumor biology. The present study was designed to compare clinical and pathological features between Peruvian Latinas and Spanish women with BC; interest of this analysis increases if we take into account the relationship among historic ancestries of both ethnic groups (Incas emporium and Spanish conquers).
Methods : Information was retrospectively reviewed from patients files and pathologic reports from Instituto Nacional de Enfermedades Neoplasicas (INEN) in Lima- Peru, and Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre in Madrid- Spain. In order to produce comparative information and avoid subjective clinical measurements we selected only non-metastatic and non-bilateral invasive BC cases that underwent surgery as initial therapy. BC cases were classified as molecular subtypes: Luminal A [RE+ and/or RP+, HER2−], Lum B [RE+ and/or RP+, HER2+], triple negative (TN) [RE-, RP-, HER2−] and HER2 [RE-, RP-, HER2+]. Variables were compared with the X2 test and survival curves were evaluated with Kaplan-Meier method. Results: The study included 3765 BC cases. The Spanish cohort involved 1539 (40.9%) women consecutively diagnosed between 1997 and 2007 (median follow-up of 7.9 years). The Peruvian cohort involved 2226 (59.1%) women consecutively diagnosed between 2000 and 2006 (median follow-up of 6.3 years).
In terms of pathological features, grade I tumors were more frequent in Spanish (16.2%) than Peruvian women (9.6%) (p<0.001). Higher rates of lobular histology were also found in Spanish (12.5%) than Peruvian (6.0%) women (p<0.001). Spanish cases presented at earlier stages when evaluated by lymph node status (N0 in 58.9% vs 47.1%) (p<0.001) or by tumor size (T1 in 37.9% vs 17-2%). Conservative surgery were more frequent among Spanish cases (50.6% vs 16.8%) (p<0.001). TN molecular subtype were more frequent among Peruvian cases (22.5% vs 12.4%) (p<0.001).
Brain (10.4% vs5.3%), and skin and subcutaneous (7.1% vs 2.4%) metastases were more frequently found in Peruvian patients. On the other hand, contralateral breast cancer was more frequent among Spanish patients (12.2% vs 2.8%).
And when evaluated by molecular subtypes, bone metastases in TN were more frequent among Spanish (25.4%) than Peruvian (18.5%) cases.
Disease-free survival rates at 7 years were similar between Spanish and Peruvian patients (80,3% vs 79,6%, p=0.197). However, overall survival at 7 years was better in Spanish women (90.4% vs 82.6%, p<0.001).
Conclusion : Epidemiologic differences in terms of histological features, clinical stage at diagnosis, molecular subtypes distribution, recurrence patterns and prognosis were found among Spanish and Peruvian BC patients in this retrospective analysis.

Abstract
1033 Background: Combination of B with first-line paclitaxel (TP) or docetaxel (TD) significantly improves PFS vs taxane alone in pts with LR/mBC. The open-label, multicenter MO19391 trial further assessed safety and efficacy of first-line B plus a taxane in >2,000 pts in routine clinical practice. Methods: Eligible pts had HER2- negative LR/mBC (or HER2-positive LR/mBC progressing after trastuzumab-containing therapy), ECOG PS 0–2, no prior CT for LR/mBC and no evidence of CNS metastases. Pts received B 10mg/kg q2w or 15mg/kg q3w plus the physician's choice of taxane (TP or TD alone or with another CT) or other non-anthracycline CT according to physician's standard of care. Treatment was continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or refusal. The primary endpoint was safety (NCI CTCAE v3.0); secondary endpoints included TTP, OS, and safety in pts developing CNS metastases. Results: From Sept 2006 to June 2008, 2,027 pts from 37 countries were enrolled. Median follow-up is 7.4 months. CT included a taxane (alone or with CT) in ∼75% of pts. Non-taxane agents included capecitabine (X) and vinorelbine (V). In the overall population, median age was 54 years (range 21–93), 70% were ER and/or PgR positive, and 32% had disease-free interval (DFI) ≤24 months. Baseline characteristics were broadly similar across subgroups. However, the X monotherapy subgroup included fewer pts with >3 metastatic lesions and more with a DFI ≤24 months and/or triple-negative disease compared with other subgroups. Safety and efficacy results grouped by CT are shown below. OS data are still immature (85% of pts alive at this analysis). Conclusions: In this large phase IV study, safety and efficacy of B plus TP or TD was similar to results of E2100 and AVADO. Variations in toxicities were consistent with the known profiles of each CT and no new safety signals for B were observed. The lowest incidences of serious Aes were seen with B plus TP or X. TTP was shorter with X and non-taxane combinations. Such findings are potentially attributable to small pt numbers and differences in baseline characteristics. These results show that B can be safely and effectively combined with a wide range of commonly used CT regimens as first-line therapy for mBC. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Abstract
e22125 Background: Signaling through the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-IR) has been implicated in the resistance to a number of clinically relevant anti-cancer agents. The aim of this study was to assess the direct anti-tumour effects of CP-751,871, alone and in combination with paclitaxel in lung and colon cancer cell lines. Methods: Four lung and four colon cancer cell line where treated with the IGF-IR inhibitor CP-751,871 and/or Paclitaxel in simultaneous or sequential treatments. Response to treatments was evaluated by WST-1 cell survival assays. Flow cytometric analysis was used to estimate the effect on the cell cycle and apoptosis. IGF-IR mRNA expression was determined by quantitative real-time PCR and relative gene expression values were calculated by the ΔΔCt method. Results: No correlation between basal IGF-IR mRNA expression and CP-751,871 response was observed in cell lines tested. Flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that CP-751,871 enhanced cell cycle arrest at the G1/G0 checkpoint with minimal effects on apoptosis. Combined simultaneous and, more strongly, sequential treatment with CP- 751,871 and Paclitaxel showed improved response in cell growth inhibition on HCC78, H1299, Colo205 and HT29 cell lines, and was statistically superior to Paclitaxel alone (p< 0.001) and CP-751,871 alone (p< 0.001). In H460, LS180 and DLD-1 cell lines, concomitant, but no sequential treatment resulted in antagonistic interactions. Conclusions: CP-751,871 showed a modest anti-tumour activity, predominantly cytostatic, against lung and colon cancer cell lines, that is not related to the mRNA expression. CP-751,871 tends to enhance the effects of paclitaxel in vitro, depending on sequence of administration and on the model system used. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e16084 Background: Vinorelbine (VRL) has been shown to be active in hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC). Oral formulation of VRL represents a significant advance in the treatment of advanced cancer. The recommended doses are 60–80 mg/m2(d1–8 q3wks).We evaluated efficacy and toxicity of different VRL schedule administered as a fixed-weekly dose of 60 mg/m2. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the toxicity profile and efficacy of this schedule in terms of PSA response, objective response and clinical benefit (CB) response. Methods: Pts characteristics were: PS 0–2, adequate bone marrow, liver and renal functions. Oral VRL was adminestered at weekly dose of 60 mg/m2 until disease progression/intolerable toxicity. PSA response was defined as a >50% fall in PSA from baseline, confirmed by a second PSA value 4 or > weeks later. Pts with measurable soft tissue disease met traditional guidelines for tumour responses. Progression was defined by objective disease progression or PSA increase of >50% above nadir or >25% above baseline. Pts were monitored clinically and with serial PSA measurements every 1 week. Results: Thirty seven pts with progressive HR metastatic prostate cancer were evaluated. Mean (range) age was 67 years (50–88), median PSA level was 90 ng/ml (1- 4314), and median Gleason score was 7 (6–9). 23 (62%) pts had previous taxane chemotherapy and 14 pts (38%) were chemo-naive. Pts received a mean of 5.5 cycles (1cycle=3wks) (range:1–24). Median follow-up was 12 months. Thirty three of 37 Pts (97%) achieved a decline in serum PSA. CB response was achieved in 15 out of 37 pts(40%). The PSA response was observed in 13 pts (35%). Objective response was not observed and only 6 pts showed SD (16%). The relative dose-intensity was 94%. There were no reported grade 3–4 toxicities. Only 1 treatment discontinuation was observed (esopahgitis g2). Toxicities consisted primarily of g2 anemia (25%) and mild nausea (32%). Conclusions: Oral Vinorelbine administered as a fixed-weekly schedule of 60 mg/m2 is a safe regimen in pts with advanced HRPC. This regimen of oral vinorelbine is an effective and well-tolerated treatment in this setting, despite a major dose-intensity administered. Further studies will be evaluated in chemo-naive and/or elderly population. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
1032 Background: Limited data exist on the efficacy and safety of biological agents in elderly patients with aBC. This is essentially due to the lack of studies specifically targeting the older population and to strict inclusion criteria in clinical trials. B significantly improved the efficacy of 1st-line taxane therapy in two large, randomized phase III trials, E2100 and AVADO. Methods: In study MO19391, 1st-line B 10mg/kg q2w or 15mg/kg q3w + CT (primarily but not exclusively taxane monotherapy) was investigated in a broader, large aBC patient population, with the aim of understanding safety and efficacy in patients seen in routine clinical practice, including elderly patients. Results: A total of 2,027 patients were enrolled. Median age was 54 years (range 21–93); 359 patients (17.7%) were aged ≥65 years and 169 (8.3%) were ≥70 years. Baseline characteristics and safety and efficacy results according to age are shown below (Table). Conclusions: Treatment with B is feasible in elderly patients. Hypertension was the only grade 3 B-related side effect reported more frequently in the older than in the younger cohort. Efficacy was similar in the two subgroups. These results suggest that the combination of B with 1st-line CT shows a similar therapeutic index regardless of age. Data on compliance according to the different CT regimens, the impact of comorbidities on safety, and analyses in the subgroup of patients ≥70 years will be presented.

Abstract
6009 Background: Induction chemotherapy (IC) with TPF isa standard regimen for patients (pts) with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (N Engl J Med. 2007;357:1705–1715). However, CRT alone is standard treatment for unresectable LAHNC. We designed a trial to compare two different regimens of IC followed by CRT versus CRT alone in pts with unresectable LAHNC. Methods: Pts with unresectable, measurable LAHNC, adequate organ function, and ECOG 0–1 were enrolled and stratified according to primary tumor site. (IC) regimens (3 cycles): PF (cisplatin 100 mg/m2 day [d] 1, then 5-FU 1,000 mg/m2 continuous infusion [CI], d1–5, q21d); TPF (docetaxel 75 mg/m2 d1, cisplatin 75 mg/m2 d1, 5-FU 750 mg/m2 CI, d1–5, q21d plus G-CSF and ciprofloxacin). All pts were to receive CRT, consisting of conventional radiotherapy up to 70 Gy plus cisplatin 100 mg/m2 d 1, 22, 43. The primary end point was time to treatment failure (TTF) for (IC) vs. no (IC); secondary endpoints included locoregional control (LRC) rate and safety; 438 pts were needed to demonstrate a 15% difference in treatment failure (death, progression, surgery, other treatments) with α = 0.05, β = 0.2. Results: From December 2002 to June 2007, 439 pts were enrolled: IC 311 pts (TPF 155, PF 156) and CRT 128 pts. The majority of pts were: ECOG 1 (70%); oropharynx and oral cavity (63%); T4 (75%); N2-N3 (61%). In evaluable pts (at least 1 cycle), the median TTF was 12.5 months with IC/CRT vs. 4.9 months with CRT alone (p < 0.001; HR 0.57; 95%CI 0.44–0.74); LRC rate was 60.9% IC/CRT vs. 44.5% CRT (p = 0.003; OR = 0.52; 95%CI 0.3–0.81). Grade 3–4 adverse events (IC/CRT vs. CRT) occurred in 83% vs. 69% of pts and included febrile neutropenia (10% vs 1%), and stomatitis (43.7% vs 37%). Conclusions: This is the first phase III trial to demonstrate that (IC) followed by CRT significantly increases TTF and LRC compared with CRT alone in pts with unresectable LAHNC. IC/CRT should now be considered standard treatment for these pts. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
e22220 Background: Most clinical trials are designed to assess the antitumor effect of the chemoterapeutic intervention. There are few examples where the endpoint is to assess the biology of the host response to the treatment of the tumor. A large number of patients with pancreatic cancer present features of the cachexia syndrome and specially a marked weight loss. It has been postulated that a “cytokine storm” is the cause of the profound effect that this cancer has on distant tissues. This trial analyzed changes in the subcutaneous fat gene expression profile in relation with the clinical benefit variable with standard gemcitabine (G) treatment. Methods: Patients with histology confirmed advanced pancreatic cancer, adequate organ function and written informed consent. Eligible pts were intended for a subcutaneous fat biopsy pretreatment and after 7 weeks of gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 together with response assessment. Clinical benefit (CB) (pain, analgesic consumption, Karnofsky and weight), QLQ-C30, serum cytokines and tumor markers were evaluated pretreatment, at 4 and 8 weeks. Fat gene expression profile was analyzed using Affimetrix U133Plus2.0 with the corresponding bioinformatic software. Serum cytokines where analyzed with xMAP technology with the Luminex 200 platform. Results: 16 pts [8 m, 8 f, median age 62 yrs (range 47–72)]. Median weight change -0.75 kg (range -4.5 to 2). Nine pts had pre and post treatment biopsies and 7 only pretreatment. Three pts achieved CB at 8 weeks. Objective responses: 0 CR, 0 PR, 31% SD and 68%PD. Toxicity was similar to the one reported in gemcitabine's label. It was possible to extract quality RNA for microarray from subcutaneous fat use from all samples but 1. The limited number of samples precluded to obtain genes clearly involved in cachexia, however the IL-8 expression (p0.03) was significantly correlated with CB response either to gene and serum profile. Conclusions: It is feasible to study prospectively the impact of cancer treatment on different tissue biomarkers and correlated with standard antitumor evaluation system. The reduced number of samples in this exploratory trial precludes producing significant biological conclusions. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
1051 Background: Based on clinical activity of capecitabine(C) and gemcitabine (G) on the treatment of MBC, we performed a multicentric phase II trial of the combination to test its efficacy and safety profile. Methods: Sample size of 72 evaluable MBC patients (pts) previously An-treated (neoadjuvant 8%, adjuvant 69%, advanced 30%). Median age: 59 years (35–76 years). Estrogen Receptor positive: 47 (65%). HER2 overexpression: 16 (22%). Prior hormonal/trastuzumab allowed. Soft tissue/ganglionar/pleural/bone disease: 19 (26%); visceral metastasis: 53(74%). Stratification: previous chemotherapy (CT) for advanced disease (none: group 1; any: group 2). Study treatment: oral bid C 1,660 mg/m2/day (d) (d1–14) + iv G 1,000 mg/m2/d (d1&8). Cycles repeated every 3 weeks. RECIST/NCI-CTC 2.0 criteria. Primary end point: Objective Response Rate. Results: Response Rates and Clinical Benefit (CB) are detailed in the table . Median follow-up 7.2 months (m) (0.2–18.4). Median time to progression 11.2 m: group 1, 12 m (95%CI: 6.4–14.5); group 2, 8.9 m (95%CI: 6.9–14).Total and median administered cycles/pt: 479 and 8. Delayed cycles: 103(21.5%): 27% due to hematological toxicity, 11% due to non-hematological toxicity, 62% due to other causes. C dose reduced in 27 cycles (5.6%), 12 of them due to non- hematological toxicity. G dose reduced in 169 cycles (35%), mostly on day 8, and due to hematological toxicity (80% of reduced cycles). Grade 3–4 neutropenia: 32 pts (56%), 1 case of febrile neutropenia. Grade 3–4 non-hematological toxicities: asthenia 8 pts (14%), hand- foot syndrome 6 pts (10.5%), mucositis 3 pts (5%), diarrhea 2 pts (3.5%). Conclusions: Combination of C+G in the treatment of previously anthracycline-treated MBC is safe and active, with a manageable toxicity profile and a good clinical activity.

Abstract
2580 Background: Cisplatin and pemetrexed have demonstrated clinical activity in several malignant tumors including mesothelioma and non small cell lung cancer. There is preclinical evidence of synergism between both agents as well as clinical non-overlapping toxicities, thus providing the rationale for their evaluation in combination. Our aim was to develop a well-tolerated combination of bi-weekly CP able to deliver higher dose intensity than the every 3-week standard. Methods: Escalating doses of P from a starting dose level of 300 mg/m2, with a fixed-dose of C 50 mg/m2, both biweekly on 28-day cycles, were administered to patients with refractory advanced solid malignancies and calculated creatinine clearance = 45 mL/min. Results: Twenty one patients (5 female/16 male); median age 61 (39–76); ECOG 0 (16), 1 (5); lung cancer (9); soft-tissue sarcoma (3); unknown primary, bladder, breast, rectum, esophagus, melanoma, mesothelioma, prostate, and tonsil (1, each) have received a total of 48 courses (median 2, range 0–5), at P dose levels of 300 mg/m2 [8 pts, Dose level 1 (DL1)], 400 mg/m2 (7 pts, DL2), and 500 mg/m2 (6 pts, DL3), with full doses of C. Four patients were non-evaluable (2 at DL1, 1 at DL2 and 1 at DL3) because of early PD (2) and non-drug related serious adverse event (2 pt). Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) were G4 neutropenia (1 pt) at 300 mg/m2; and prolonged G 1/2 thrombocytopenia (1 pt) at 500 mg/m2. There were also 2 pts with non-DLT G4 neutropenia at DL3. The rest of toxicities were mild to moderate being the most frequent asthenia, nausea, anorexia, stomatatis, and sensory neuropathy. DL3 was considered the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the previous level with P at 400 mg/m2 was declared the recommended phase II dose. Three additional patients were treated at DL2 for dose confirmation. A PR has been observed in 2 pts with NSCLC, 1 pt with breast, and 1 with esophagus cancer. Conclusions: Biweekly administration of pemetrexed (400 mg/m2) plus cisplatin (50 mg/m2) is clinically well tolerated and can be used safely. The regimen delivers higher dose intensity of P and equal of C as the standard. This regimen is currently being studied in a phase 2 trial in patients with locally advanced, non resectable or metastatic urothelial cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
2517 Background: PM00104 (Zalypsis [Z]) is a novel synthetic alkaloid related to the marine compounds Jorumycin and the family of Renieramycins. Preliminary analyses of its mechanisms of action suggest effects on the cell cycle, DNA binding properties, as well as transcriptional inhibition. Z has shown antitumor activity in vitro (IC50 =10-8 M) and in xenografts models, and an acceptable toxicology profile. Methods: Patients (pts) with advanced cancers or lymphoma were enrolled to determine the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended dose (RD), pharmacokinetics (PK) and antitumor activity of Z administered as a 1- hour IV infusion every 3 weeks. Sequential cohorts of 3–6 pts received the following doses: 0.225, 0.45, 0.9, 1.8, 3.0 and 3.6 mg/m2. Results: 27 pts were treated (19 M; median age: 58, range: 39–79; ECOG PS =2). 2 of 6 pts at 3.6 mg/m2 experienced dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), defining the MTD; 1 pt with colorectal cancer with extensive liver metastases developed grade 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia, grade 3 transaminase elevation, and grade 4 troponin I rise without cardiac symptoms or electrocardiogram alterations. These toxicities all resolved. Another pt with adrenal carcinoma developed grade 3 nausea, vomiting and asthenia despite anti-emetics, which resolved with dexamethasone 2 days after infusion. Other toxicities were =grade 2 and included: nausea, vomiting, transient transaminase elevation and asthenia at doses =0.225 mg/m2 and myelosuppression (neutropenia and leukopenia) at doses =3.0 mg/m2. No DLTs were seen in 6 pts at a dose of 3.0 mg/m2, establishing this dose as the RD. 3 more pts were added to complete the expanded cohort at this RD. To date, 2 pts have SD lasting >3 months. PK data indicate that drug AUC and Cmax increase proportionally across the dose range until doses =3.0 mg/m2, when a disproportionate increase in AUC and Cmax was seen. Z has a long half-life (=50 hours) and wide volume of distribution (Vss ∼500 l/m2). Conclusions: Z has a favorable safety profile. The MTD on this schedule has been established at 3.6 mg/m2. Alternative schedules are being evaluated to try and increase dose intensity. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
To evaluate the single agent activity, pharmacokinetics and tolerability of the novel tubulin targeted agent vinflunine (VFL) (320 mg m−2 q 21 days) as second-line chemotherapy in patients with metastatic breast carcinoma (MBC). All patients had disease progression after anthracycline/taxane (A/T) therapy. They could have received a nonanthracycline adjuvant treatment and subsequently received a first-line A/T combination for advanced/metastatic disease; or relapsed >6 months after completion of adjuvant A/T therapy and were subsequently treated with the alternative agent; or relapsed within 6 months from an adjuvant A/T combination. Objective response was documented in 18 of 60 patients enrolled (RR: 30% (95% confidence interval (CI): 18.9–43.2%)). Among the responders, seven patients had relapsed during a period of <3 months from taxane-based regimen yielding a RR of 33.3%. The median duration of response was 4.8 months (95% CI: 4.2–7.2), median progression-free survival was 3.7 months (95% CI: 2.8–4.2) and median overall survival was 14.3 months (95% CI: 9.2–19.6). The most frequent adverse event was neutropenia (grade 3 in 28.3% and grade 4 in 36.7% of patients). No febrile neutropenia was observed. Fatigue (grade 3 in 16.7% of patients) and constipation (grade 3 in 11.7% of patients) were also common; these were non-cumulative and manageable permitting achievement of a good relative dose intensity of 93.5%. Vinflunine is an active agent with acceptable tolerance in the management of MBC patients previously treated with (A/T)-based regimens. These encouraging phase II results warrant further investigation of this novel agent in combination with other active agents in this setting or in earlier stages of disease.

Abstract
10762 Background: HER2 positive is associated with up-regulation of VEGF in human breast cancer cells. Superior efficacy was observed if anti-HER2 antibody (trastuzumab) (TZB) is given with anti-VEGF antibody (bevacizumab) (BVB) in xenografs models (Konecny G., 2004). In one phase I study with 9 patients (pt), the combination TZB+BVB was well tolerated without important toxicity, achieving 1 complete response and 4 partial responses (Pegram M, 2005). Methods and Result: We report a clinical case of a 48 years old woman with an advanced resistant breast cancer diagnosed in 1995 and treated with radical surgery for a invasive ductal carcinoma pT2N1M0 HHRR - and c-erbB2 positive (+++). She received adjuvant CMF for 6 cycles and local radiotherapy (XRT). In 2000, lung and liver metastases (mts) with increased CA 15.3 serum levels and was treated with paclitaxel + TZB achieving complete response. Maintenance with TZB was given for one additional year. In 2002, bone and brain mts with increase of CA 15.3 and was treated with vinorelbine + TZB with whole brain irradiation. On March 2005, bone and liver progression was treated with capecitabine + TZB and pelvic XRT with control of the mts. On August, pt developed rapid progression of liver mts with intensive abdominal pain requiring high doses of morphine; progressive jaundice (total bilirubin: 24.4 mg/dl) and low performance status. The level of CA 15.3 was 626 U/ml. We decide treatment with TZB + BVB in a biweekly schedule for 6 consecutive weeks. Whole liver XRT was given in two weeks (15.5Gy). The treatment was well tolerated and the pt improves immediately her clinical situation. Levels of CA 15.3 dropped to 161 U/ml and bilirubin to 4.87 mg/dl. The pt continues the treatment in ambulatory regiment for 7 additional weeks. She had a pathological hip fracture at home and was admitted to the Hospital developing an acute lung tromboembolism dying suddenly. Liver metastases still in clinical and biochemical response. Conclusions: The combination of TZB with BVB could be an effective alternative treatment for pt with advanced and resistant breast cancer, erbB2 positive, and need to be explored in clinical trials.
