Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) In patients (pts) with breast cancer, prone radiation therapy (RT) has been shown to reduce heart and lung dose which may decrease late toxicity. Routinely used for whole breast irradiation, its use to treat regional lymph nodes (LNs) is not widespread. MATERIALS/METHODS In this phase I-II study, pts treated with partial mastectomy or mastectomy with 1-5 pathologically involved LNs underwent whole breast or post-mastectomy RT plus regional nodal irradiation using IMRT to the supraclavicular and level III axillary LNs. Pts who underwent sentinel LN biopsy (SLNB) alone (no axillary dissection) had the level I and II axillary LNs included in the RT field. 40.5Gy in 15 daily 2.7Gy fractions with daily concomitant 0.5Gy tumor bed boost was prescribed. Normal tissue dose constraints included heart V5Gy<5%, ipsilateral lung V10Gy<20%, contralateral lung V5Gy<15%, ipsilateral brachial plexus (BP) maximal dose (Dmax)<43Gy, spinal cord Dmax≤37.5Gy, spinal cord + 0.5cm Dmax<41Gy, thyroid contralateral lobe Dmax<16Gy, esophagus V30Gy<50% and Dmax≤40.5Gy. The primary endpoints were dosimetric feasibility and incidence of >grade 2 acute toxicity according to CTCAE, v3.0. The secondary endpoint was late toxicity. Exploratory outcomes were local recurrence, disease free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Between January 2011 to December 2016, 97 pts with stage IB-IIA breast cancer were enrolled. 66 pts underwent partial mastectomy and 31 pts underwent mastectomy. 16 pts had SLNB alone. 33% (95% CI: 23.8%, 43.3%) met all protocol dose constraints. Heart, contralateral lung, spinal cord and esophagus V30Gy constraints were met by all pts. The ipsilateral lung constraint was met in 95% (95% CI: 88.6%, 98.4%) of plans with a mean V10Gy of 9.44% (SD: 6.08). The BP Dmax constraint was exceeded in 31.6% (95% CI: 22.4%, 41.9%) of plans with a mean increase of 2.86 Gy (SD: 7.92 Gy) over target. The esophageal Dmax<40.5Gy constraint was exceeded in 6 plans with an increase in 0.74 Gy (SD: 0.46 Gy) over target. There were no grade 3 acute toxicities meeting the primary toxicity endpoint. Common acute low-grade toxicities by pt included fatigue (grade 1: 54 [56%]; grade 2: 2 [2%]), esophagitis (grade 1: 8 [8%]; grade 2: 2 [2%]), dermatitis (grade 1: 81 [84%]; grade 2: 6 [6%]). At median and maximum follow up of 8.02 (IQR: 3.31) and 13.3 years, respectively, there were 2 local recurrences (2.1%). DFS and OS were 86.6% (95% CI: 78.2%, 92.7%) and 90.7% (95% CI: 83.1%, 95.7%), respectively. The incidence of pts with maximum grade 1, 2 and 3 late toxicities were 39 (40%), 14 (14%), and 2 (2%), respectively. The maximum grade late toxicities included 1 grade 3 retraction and 2 grade 3 asymmetries. There was no brachial plexopathy or pneumonitis. CONCLUSION Patients treated with prone hypofractionated hybrid breast/chest wall tangents and IMRT to the regional LNs demonstrate excellent dosimetry to the heart, lungs and spinal cord, minimal acute and late toxicity and excellent clinical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiation dermatitis (RD) is common among women undergoing breast and chest wall radiotherapy (RT); however, existing scales to assess the severity of RD are subjective and do not account for variability in skin of color (SOC). For instance, the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) criteria do not include hyperpigmentation in the grading scale. There is data indicating worse RD in African American and Hispanic patients; however, the rate and severity in SOC remains unknown given the lack of data using objective measures of RD. Spectrophotometry is one method to quantify the appearance of color by measuring spectral characteristics without the bias associated with subjective clinical scoring. We present a phase I prospective non-therapeutic clinical trial to objectively define SOC at baseline and evaluate spectrophotometric skin changes during and after breast or chest wall RT in parallel with physician-graded RD using CTCAE criteria. We hypothesize that there will be greater discrepancy between physician graded RD and objective measures of RD in patients with SOC in whom hyperpigmentation will be undercaptured by physician-grading. This is the first study intending to correlate SOC with objective changes after RT as a reliable indicator of RD. We offer a novel system for evaluating RD that is applicable to SOC. MATERIALS/METHODS A total of 60 patients with localized breast cancer (stage 0-III) undergoing conventional whole breast or chest wall RT (50Gy/ 25 fx), hypofractionated whole breast RT (40.5Gy/15 fx) or ultrahypofractionated partial breast RT (6Gy x5), with or without regional nodal RT were enrolled. 3 skin color readouts using the Commission International de l'Eclairage 3D color system (l*, a*, b*) were measured within the radiation field using a spectrophotometer at baseline, once weekly during RT, 10 days post RT, 4 weeks and 12 months post RT. The spectrophotometer is a non-invasive, hand-held device that is used in the clinic room with no additional equipment or setup requirements. Data is automatically exported to a spreadsheet organized by timepoint and patient. The l* axis is a gray scale (0 = black, 100 = white) correlating with skin pigmentation and the a* axis describes red and green values correlating with erythema. The primary objective is to evaluate the changes from baseline in skin color readouts in the quadrant of tumor location during and after RT based on fractionation. The secondary objective is to evaluate changes within and across groups defined by baseline skin color. Exploratory objectives include evaluating the association of baseline color readouts and changes after RT with acute and late grade > 2 clinician-rated skin and subcutaneous tissue effects according to the CTCAE, v5.0, physician graded cosmesis and clinical interventions to treat RD, such as use of topical steroids and oral analgesics. As of January 2023, we have enrolled 100% of the planned patients. RESULTS To be determined. CONCLUSION To be determined. Clinical Study Identifier: S22-00192.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Radiation induced fibrosis (RIF) is a common long term adverse event in patients undergoing post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) which can cause capsular contracture, implant loss, and reconstruction complications in women with implant-based breast reconstruction. At a molecular level, adenosine is a driver of RIF. Preclinical data have shown that pharmacologic blockade of the adenosine A2A Receptor (A2AR) in mice as well as an A2AR knockout mouse model prevented skin fibrosis associated with radiation injury. Caffeine is an A2AR antagonist which has been shown to block the development of hepatic fibrosis in liver disease patients. We present a phase II placebo controlled clinical trial to evaluate whether a caffeine-based cream can prevent RIF and thus reduce the rates of reconstructive complications in patients with tissue expander-based reconstruction requiring PMRT. MATERIALS/METHODS Women ≥ 18 years old with breast carcinoma stage 0-III status post mastectomy with tissue expander-based reconstruction who require PMRT to the chest wall +/- the regional nodes are being enrolled. The target accrual is 60 patients. Boost field to the chest wall, scar and/or nodal region is allowed. Patients with inflammatory breast cancer or those requiring skin bolus are excluded. Prior to starting radiation, patients will be randomized to placebo vs. caffeine cream and they will be instructed to apply the cream twice a day starting on the first day of radiation treatment and continuing daily for the duration of radiation until the removal of tissue expanders. The primary study endpoint is reconstructive complications requiring rehospitalization or reoperation by 2 years post radiation including reconstructive failure with or without reconstruction. A safety endpoint of grade ≥ 2 acute radiation dermatitis will also serve as a co-primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints are wound infection/cellulitis, hematoma, seroma, threatened exposure, wound dehiscence, implant leakage, rupture, and or deflation, and capsular contracture that do not meet criteria for the primary endpoint. Clinician rated cosmesis, local recurrence, regional recurrence, distant metastasis and survival up to 4 years are additional secondary endpoints. Exploratory endpoint includes the use of shear wave elastography (SWE) as a potential tool to quantitatively measure post irradiation fibrosis. Correlative aims include assessing epidermal thickness and fat layer thickness from tissue obtained at time of implant exchange for association with the development of fibrosis. The primary efficacy endpoint will be estimated using Kaplan Meier methods from date of randomization. Treatment comparisons will be based on a 2-sided log rank chi-square test and the hazard ratio will be estimated with 95% confidence intervals. The study started accruing in 12/2019 and is estimated to end by 04/2024. As of January 2023, 67% (40/60 patients) of the planned patients have been enrolled. RESULTS To be determined. CONCLUSION To be determined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patterns of cognitive impairment in former American football players are uncertain because objective neuropsychological data are lacking. This study characterized the neuropsychological test performance of former college and professional football players. METHODS One hundred seventy male former football players (n=111 professional, n=59 college; 45-74 years) completed a neuropsychological test battery. Raw scores were converted to T-scores using age, sex, and education-adjusted normative data. A T-score ≤ 35 defined impairment. A domain was impaired if 2+ scores fell in the impaired range except for the language and visuospatial domains due to the limited number of tests. RESULTS Most football players had subjective cognitive concerns. On testing, rates of impairments were greatest for memory (21.2% two tests impaired), especially for recall of unstructured (44.7%) versus structured verbal stimuli (18.8%); 51.8% had one test impaired. 7.1% evidenced impaired executive functions; however, 20.6% had impaired Trail Making Test B. 12.1% evidenced impairments in the attention, visual scanning, and psychomotor speed domain with frequent impairments on Trail Making Test A (18.8%). Other common impairments were on measures of language (i.e., Multilingual Naming Test [21.2%], Animal Fluency [17.1%]) and working memory (Number Span Backward [14.7%]). Impairments on our tasks of visuospatial functions were infrequent. CONCLUSIONS In this sample of former football players (most of whom had subjective cognitive concerns), there were diffuse impairments on neuropsychological testing with verbal memory being the most frequently impaired domain.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Increased right ventricular (RV) dilation measured by the ratio of RV diameter (RVD) to left ventricular (LV) diameter (LVD) (RV:LV) is associated with pulmonary embolism (PE) severity and mortality. Data regarding the individual contributions of RVD and LVD are limited.
Purpose
To examine RVD and LVD as independent contributors to death or need for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in intermediate- or high-risk PEs treated with surgical or catheter-based strategies
Methods
We measured basal RVD and LVD on presenting transthoracic echocardiograms (TTE) using the diastolic 4-chamber view on 127 PEs managed with surgical embolectomy (n=95, 75%), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (n=23, 18%), or catheter-directed embolectomy (n=9, 7%) for intermediate- (64%) or high-risk (36%) PE (based on European Society of Cardiology criteria) between 2005 and 2022. The primary outcome was the composite of death (n=2) or survivors requiring CPR (n=10).
Results
A total of 127 patients were analyzed. Subjects were 57±14 years, 38% women, BMI 34±8. Mean RVD and LVD were 4.4±0.9 cm and 3.9±0.8 cm respectively. All presented with severe RV dysfunction on TTE and elevated cardiac biomarkers (Troponin-I or B-type natriuretic peptide). Mean RV:LV was 1.2±0.3 (range 0.7 to 2.8). Using logistic regression, higher RV:LV was associated with increased odds of death or CPR (odds ratio (OR) 15 [95% confidence interval (CI): 2.5, 82] per 1-unit increase, p=0.002. RV:LV >1.2 was the cutoff most associated with death or CPR, OR 7.2 [95% CI: 1.5, 34.5], p=0.01. Increasing RVD [OR 3.8 (95% CI: 1.1, 12.8), p=0.03] and decreasing LVD [OR 4.9 (95% CI: 1.3, 16.9), p=0.02] were independent predictors of death or CPR. RVD >5.0 cm (OR 5.9 [95% CI: 1,5, 23.2], p 0.01) and LVD <3.6 cm (OR 7.0 [95% CI: 1.7, 27.9], p=0.006) were the cutoff values most associated with the primary outcome. These cutoff values remained significant predictors even after adjustment for body surface area. Other parameters or RV size and function (diastolic area, systolic area and fractional area change) did not predict death or CPR. All of the subjects meeting the primary outcome had high-risk PE.
Discussion
In addition to RV:LV greater than 1.2, RVD and LVD were independently associated with death or CPR among high- or intermediate risk PEs. The independent contribution of declining LVD on PE mortality is a novel finding and highlights PE associatient LV pathophysiology (hyperdynamic and underfilled) antecedent to hemodynamic collapse. PE literature focuses on RV dilation as a predictor of PE mortality. LVD may represent a useful measure to risk stratify PE patients and predict hemodynamic decompensation.

Abstract
9587 Background: Colitis and other gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity are a frequent and occasionally severe form of immune-related adverse events (irAEs) in patients treated with ICIs. To date, no definitive mechanism has been identified, and this area remains an active field of investigation. We hypothesized that activation of the RAGE axis, known to be implicated in inflammatory bowel disease through stimulation of signal transduction targeted by pro-inflammatory RAGE ligands, members of the S100 family and High Mobility Group Box 1 (HMGB1), might be associated with irAE- colitis. Methods: We examined sera from 111 advanced melanoma patients prospectively accrued and followed up at NYULH (treated with anti-PD-L1, n = 44; antiCTL4, n = 23; and combination, n = 44). 24 (22%) developed GI toxicity grade >2. Serum biomarkers of the ligand-RAGE pathways, soluble (s)RAGE, endogenous secretory (es)RAGE, S100B, and HMGB1, were measured in the patients’ sera during ICI treatment. Multivariable ordinal logistic regression analyses with all grades of GI toxicity as the primary outcome for all the recorded covariates (including serum biomarkers, clinical covariates) were performed. We then used ordinal multivariable logistic regression with stepwise variable selection. Similar analyses with GI toxicity as a binary outcome ((≥grade 1 vs no toxicity) were also conducted. Only those variables that jointly contributed to the odds of developing toxicity were included in the final stepwise model. No adjustments for multiplicity were included. As sRAGE and esRAGE are highly correlated (r = 0.86), esRAGE concentrations were not used in the joint models. Results: A significant association between GI toxicity and concentrations of sRAGE and S100B was identified. The final stepwise multivariable logistic model includes only sRAGE and S100B. The odds of having a one level increase in GI toxicity grade increase 1.100 times (95% CI: 1.008, 1.199; p = 0.029) for each unit decrease of sRAGE ( = sRAGE/100). The odds of a one level increase in GI toxicity increase 1.059 times (95% CI: 1.004, 1.116; p = 0.035) for each unit increase of S100B ( = s100B/100). All other analyses yielded comparable results. In contrast, concentrations of HMGB1 and other clinical covariates, including response and treatment category, were not associated with GI toxicity. Conclusions: Mediators of the RAGE axis, specifically sRAGE and S100B, might have a role in GI toxicity in patients receiving ICIs. The ligand-RAGE axis may be a novel target for irAE therapies for patients receiving ICIs to mitigate the severity of GI toxicity.

Abstract
The OPERA experiment was designed to discover the vτ appearance in a vμ beam, due to neutrino oscillations. The detector, located in the underground Gran Sasso Laboratory, consisted of a nuclear photographic emulsion/lead target with a mass of about 1.25 kt, complemented by electronic detectors. It was exposed from 2008 to 2012 to the CNGS beam: an almost pure vμ beam with a baseline of 730 km, collecting a total of 1.8·1020 protons on target. The OPERA Collaboration eventually assessed the discovery of vμ→vτ oscillations with a statistical significance of 6.1 σ by observing ten vτ CC interaction candidates. These events have been published on the Open Data Portal at CERN. This paper provides a detailed description of the vτ data sample to make it usable by the whole community.

Abstract
Importance and Objective: The Covid pandemic is a timely opportunity to try to broaden our understanding of the links between education and health literacy and explore the vaccine-decision process with a view to identifying interventions that will positively influence vaccine uptake. EVIDENCE Health and vaccine literacy encompass people's knowledge, motivation, and competence to access, understand, appraise and apply health information in order to make judgements and take decisions in everyday life concerning health care, disease prevention and health promotion. FINDINGS Appropriate vaccine communication, which depends greatly on personal and contextual determinants, as well as on societal and environmental circumstances, is essential to reassure people about vaccine efficacy, safety, and possible side effects. However, vaccine confidence is not solely a question of trust in the vaccine's efficacy, safety. and individual protective benefit of vaccination. It also encompasses the mechanism(s) of vaccine activity, immunization schedules, organization and trust in the healthcare system that promotes and delivers the vaccines, and at what costs. When healthcare professionals as science brokers of vaccine knowledge attempt to increase vaccine knowledge and confidence, they must adjust their communication to the educational or health literacy level of their intended audience. Even if their messages are apparently clear and simple, they absolutely need to verify that they are properly understood. RELEVANCE Specific vaccine communication training appears essential to increase vaccine communication skills among healthcare providers. Moreover, further randomized controlled studies are warranted to improve vaccine empowerment among different populations, from a variety of educational backgrounds.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), and c-KIT represent clinically and/or preclinically validated molecular targets in vestibular schwannomas. We conducted a single institution, prospective, open-label, two-stage phase II study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02129647) to estimate the response rate to axitinib, an oral multi-receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGFR, PDGFR and c-KIT, in neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) patients with progressive vestibular schwannomas (VS). METHODS NF2 patients older than 5 years with at least one volumetrically measurable, progressive VS were eligible. The primary endpoint was to estimate the objective volumetric response rates to axitinib. Axitinib was given continuously in 28-day cycles for up to of 12 cycles. Response was assessed every 3 months with MRI using 3-D volumetric tumor analysis and audiograms. Volumetric response and progression were defined as ≥20% decrease or increase in VS volume, respectively. RESULTS Twelve eligible patients (ages: 14–56 years) were enrolled on this study. Seven of twelve patients completed 12 cycles (range: 2 to 12 cycles). We observed two imaging and three hearing responses. Best volumetric response was -53.9% after nine months on axitinib. All patients experienced drug-related toxicities, the most common adverse events were diarrhea, hematuria and skin toxicity, not exceeding grade 2 and hypertension, not exceeding grade 3. CONCLUSIONS While axitinib has modest anti-tumor activity in NF2 patients, it is more toxic and appears to be less effective compared to bevacizumab. Based on these findings, further clinical development of axitinib for this indication does not appear warranted.

Abstract
Although telescopic spectacles magnify the retinal image and should improve functional vision, many low vision patients are unable to use them. The authors found that involuntary head movements and the reduction of acuity with imposed head motion differentiated successful from unsuccessful telescope users and that success was related to the age at which telescopes were first used.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Receptor activator of NF-kB (RANK) and its ligand (RANKL) have a well-established role in osteoclast-driven bone remodeling, however RANK/RANKL expression can also be seen on mammary epithelial cells and immune cells (IC). In breast cancer (BC) mouse models, RANKL is a paracrine effector of the mitogenic activity of progesterone and inhibition of RANKL can attenuate development of BC as well as the incidence of metastases.
Pre-clinical evidence demonstrates that RANKL exerts effects on IC such as regulatory T cells (Tregs) and tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) within the tumor microenvironment (TME), thereby promoting tumor progression and metastases. Clinical studies also support a deleterious role for these IC subsets specifically in breast cancer, with high density of either Tregs or TAMs associated with increased risk for distant recurrence.
Despite this preclinical support for targeting the RANK/RANKL pathway, clinical trials in early stage BC have had discordant results regarding the clinical benefit of denosumab (RANKL antagonist). As such, it is of significant clinical relevance to identify a drug response signature following treatment as this may suggest biomarkers predictive of benefit from adjuvant denosumab.
This window-of-opportunity study was designed to evaluate the pharmacodynamic biomarkers of RANKL inhibition, as well as denosumab’s impact on the TME in paired tumor specimens from patients with BC following treatment with denosumab. Defining the immunomodulatory effects of denosumab may additionally provide biologic rationale for synergistic combination with specific immunotherapy agents.
TRIAL DESIGN: This study is a single-arm open label Phase 0 (pre-surgical/window of opportunity) trial. Following diagnostic core needle biopsy, patients receive one dose of denosumab 120 mg given subcutaneously prior to surgical resection.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: ≥18 years of age with histologically-confirmed invasive BC >1 cm by radiographic or clinical criteria with available tissue from the core biopsy and planned surgery. Patients are ineligible for this study if neoadjuvant therapy is being considered.
STUDY OBJECTIVES: The primary objective is to identify pharmacodynamics markers of RANKL inhibition in early BC. Planned analyses include protein and transcriptomic analyses of known targets of RANKL and compare treatment effect in both RANK/RANKL+ and RANK/RANKL- BC. As a secondary objective, the effect of RANKL inhibition on host immune response will be assessed by comparing pre-treatment biopsy specimens and surgical excision specimens from patients treated with denosumab and untreated controls matched for BC subtype and menopausal status. Planned analyses include RANK/RANKL expression on IC subsets, enumeration of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes by H&E, immunophenotype by immunohistochemistry (e.g. cytotoxic T lymphocytes, Tregs, TAMs) and expression of immune related genes (nanoString Pancancer Immune Panel).
STATISTICAL METHODS: As RANK/RANKL protein expression is expected in 25-30% of BC, we plan to enroll 35 subjects to ensure at least 10 subjects with RANK/RANKL+ tumors will be included in our study cohort. With 10 subjects with tumors with high RANK/RANKL expression at baseline, a change from baseline of a single gene of >|1.7| standard deviations between subjects with and without RANK/RANKL expression is detectable based on a 2-sided two sample t-test with power of 80% and false discovery rate of 10%. Differential gene expression analysis will be performed comparing denosumab treated patients with RANK/RANKL+ vs. RANK/RANKL- BC, and between treated patients and untreated controls.
PRESENT ACCRUAL: 29 of the planned 35 patients have been enrolled to date.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
Inhibition of mTORC1 signaling has been shown to diminish growth of NF2 deficient tumors in preclinical studies, and clinical data suggest that everolimus, an orally administered mTORC1 inhibitor, may slow tumor progression in a subset of adult and pediatric NF2 patients with VS. To assess the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and potential mechanisms of treatment resistance, we performed a pre-surgical (“phase 0”) clinical trial of everolimus in patients undergoing surgery for VS or meningiomas.
METHODS
Eligible patients with meningioma or VS requiring tumor resection received everolimus 10 mg daily for 10 days immediately prior to surgery. Everolimus blood levels were determined immediately prior to and after surgery. Tumor samples were collected intraoperatively.
RESULTS
Ten patients completed protocol therapy, including 5 patients with NF2-related meningioma, 3 patients with sporadic meningioma, and 2 patients with NF2-related VS. Median pre- and post-operative plasma levels of everolimus were found to be in a high therapeutic range (17.4 ng/ml and 9.4 ng/ml, respectively). Median tumor tissue drug concentration determined by mass spectrometry was 24.3 ng/g (range 9.2–169.2), and median tumor tissue to post-operative plasma drug concentration ratio was 0.39. We observed only partial inhibition of phospho-S6 in the treated tumors, indicating incomplete target inhibition compared to matched control tissues from untreated patients (p = 0.005). Consistent with prior observations that inhibition of mTORC1 may lead to MAPK pathway activation through a PI3K-dependent feedback loop, we observed a statistically significant increase of phospho-ERK (p < 0.03) versus untreated controls.
CONCLUSIONS
In patients with meningioma or VS, treatment with everolimus leads to incomplete inhibition of mTORC1 signaling and upregulation phospho-ERK. These data may explain the limited anti-tumor effect of everolimus observed in clinical studies for NF2 patients and identify upregulation of phospho-ERK as a likely resistance mechanism that could be addressed with combination therapies.

Abstract
We evaluated the feasibility of ruxolitinib therapy followed by a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen for patients with myelofibrosis (MF) undergoing transplantation in a 2-stage Simon phase II trial. The aims were to decrease the incidence of graft failure (GF) and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) compared with data from the previous Myeloproliferative Disorders Research Consortium 101 Study. The plan was to enroll 11 patients each in related donor (RD) and unrelated donor (URD) arms, with trial termination if ≥3 failures (GF or death by day +100 post-transplant) occurred in the RD arm or ≥6 failures occurred in the URD. A total of 21 patients were enrolled, including 7 in the RD arm and 14 in the URD arm. The RD arm did not meet the predetermined criteria for proceeding to stage II. Although the URD arm met the criteria for stage II, the study was terminated owing to poor accrual and a significant number of failures. In all 19 transplant recipients, ruxolitinib was tapered successfully without significant side effects, and 9 patients (47%) had a significant decrease in symptom burden. The cumulative incidences of GF, NRM, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and chronic GVHD at 24 months were 16%, 28%, 64%, and 76%, respectively. On an intention-to-treat basis, the 2-year overall survival was 61% for the RD arm and 70% for the URD arm. Ruxolitinib can be integrated as pretransplantation treatment for patients with MF, and a tapering strategy before transplantation is safe, allowing patients to commence conditioning therapy with a reduced symptom burden. However, GF and NRM remain significant.

Abstract
The OPERA experiment was designed to study ν_{μ}→ν_{τ} oscillations in the appearance mode in the CERN to Gran Sasso Neutrino beam (CNGS). In this Letter, we report the final analysis of the full data sample collected between 2008 and 2012, corresponding to 17.97×10^{19} protons on target. Selection criteria looser than in previous analyses have produced ten ν_{τ} candidate events, thus reducing the statistical uncertainty in the measurement of the oscillation parameters and of ν_{τ} properties. A multivariate approach for event identification has been applied to the candidate events and the discovery of ν_{τ} appearance is confirmed with an improved significance level of 6.1σ. |Δm_{32}^{2}| has been measured, in appearance mode, with an accuracy of 20%. The measurement of the ν_{τ} charged-current cross section, for the first time with a negligible contamination from ν[over ¯]_{τ}, and the first direct evidence for the ν_{τ} lepton number are also reported.

Abstract
BackgroundThis post-hoc analysis evaluated whether the efficacy of lurasidone in major depressive disorder (MDD) with mixed features is moderated by the number and characteristics of manic symptoms present at study baseline.MethodsPatients meeting DSM-IV-TR criteria for MDD who presented with two or three manic symptoms (consistent with the DSM–5 mixed features specifier) were randomly assigned to 6 weeks of double-blind treatment with either lurasidone 20–60 mg/d (n = 109) or placebo (n = 100). Finite mixture models were applied to identify latent class patterns of the 10 baseline manic symptoms.ResultsThree latent class profiles were identified: 105 (50.5%) patients had manic symptom profile 1 (MIX 1) with mean MADRS 33.0, mean YMRS 9.2, mean number of manic symptoms 3.8; 63 (30.3%) patients had manic symptom profile 2 (MIX 2) with similar baseline mean MADRS (32.4) and YMRS (9.3) and lower number of manic symptoms 3.5; 40 patients had manic symptom profile 3 (MIX 3) with significantly higher severity scores in MADRS (35) and YMRS (14.9) and mean number of manic symptoms 4.6. A significant moderating effect on change in YMRS score was observed for the “decreased need for sleep” symptom, with greater lurasidone effect size (vs. Placebo) found in patients without vs. With this symptom (P < 0.05).ConclusionsIn this post-hoc analysis of a placebo-controlled trial involving MDD patients with mixed features, absence of “decreased need for sleep” was found to be significantly associated with improvement in manic and depressive symptoms and to moderate the treatment effect on manic symptoms.Disclosure of interestI am full time employee of Sunovion pharmaceuticals Inc.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose:Neoadjuvant therapy has been widely integrated in the treatment of locally advanced breast cancer. Over time, this strategy has been extended to include patients with earlier stage disease to allow for assessment of in vivo response to treatment. The aim of this study was to describe the national trends in neoadjuvant therapy for all invasive breast cancers with a particular focus on triple negative disease and HER2 status.
Methods: The National Cancer Database (NCDB), an oncology outcomes database that collects data from more than 1500 Commission on Cancer (CoC) accredited cancer programs, was queried for all women diagnosed with invasive breast cancer from 2006-2013. Patients with unknown systemic therapy sequence were excluded. Women were classified by whether or not they received neoadjuvant systemic, chemo and/or endocrine, therapy.
Results: We identified 1,221,976 cases that were eligible for this analysis. Of these, 29.7% were HER2 negative, 18.4% were classified as triple negative, and 8.9% received neoadjuvant systemic therapy. The percentage of patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy increased from 7.5% in 2006 to 9.8% in 2012 with a slight decrease to 9.5% in 2013. This increase in the use of neoadjuvant therapy over the time period was statistically significant (p<0.0001). There was a small increase in the percent of patients with HER2 positive status who received neoadjuvant therapy, from 5.7% in 2006 to 6.5% in 2013. During this time period, there was a 9% increase in the percent of triple negative patients who received neoadjuvant therapy (13.1% in 2016 to 22.1% in 2013).
Number and percent of patients who received/did not receive neoadjuvant therapy by year2006 (N=136117)2007 (N=143033)2008 (N=148888)2009 (N=154713)2010 (N=154040)2011 (N=162333)2012 (N=163395)2013 (N=159457)No Neoadjuvant Therapy | 125908 (92.5)131559 (91.98)136593 (91.74)141364 (91.37)139459 (90.53)146500 (90.25)147401 (90.21)144306 (90.5)Neoadjuvant Therapy | 10209 (7.5)11474 (8.02)12295 (8.26)13349 (8.63)14581 (9.47)15833 (9.75)15994 (9.79)15151 (9.5)
Conclusions: Over the time period from 2006-2013, there has been an apparent increase in the percentage of patients who received neoadjuvant therapy. This trend is accompanied by increases in the percentage of TNBC patients and in Her2 positive patients who received neoadjuvant therapy. Other factors and the joint effects of these factors on the observed increase in the use of neoadjuvant therapy are under evaluation to elucidate the basis for this observation in the NCDB data.
