Abstract
PURPOSE Tissue-based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is increasingly used for treatment selection in patients with advanced cancer; however, tissue availability may limit widespread implementation. Here, we established real-world CGP tissue availability and assessed CGP performance on consecutively received samples. MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a post hoc, nonprespecified analysis of 32,048 consecutive tumor tissue samples received for StrataNGS, a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based comprehensive genomic profiling (PCR-CGP) test, as part of an ongoing observational trial (NCT03061305). Sample characteristics and PCR-CGP performance were assessed across all tested samples, including exception samples not meeting minimum input quality control (QC) requirements (< 20% tumor content [TC], < 2 mm2 tumor surface area [TSA], DNA or RNA yield < 1 ng/µL, or specimen age > 5 years). Tests reporting ≥ 1 prioritized alteration or meeting TC and sequencing QC were considered successful. For prostate carcinoma and lung adenocarcinoma, tests reporting ≥ 1 actionable or informative alteration or meeting TC and sequencing QC were considered actionable. RESULTS Among 31,165 (97.2%) samples where PCR-CGP was attempted, 10.7% had < 20% TC and 59.2% were small (< 25 mm2 tumor surface area). Of 31,101 samples evaluable for input requirements, 8,089 (26.0%) were exceptions not meeting requirements. However, 94.2% of the 31,101 tested samples were successfully reported, including 80.5% of exception samples. Positive predictive value of PCR-CGP for ERBB2 amplification in exceptions and/or sequencing QC-failure breast cancer samples was 96.7%. Importantly, 84.0% of tested prostate carcinomas and 87.9% of lung adenocarcinomas yielded results informing treatment selection. CONCLUSION Most real-world tissue samples from patients with advanced cancer desiring CGP are limited, requiring optimized CGP approaches to produce meaningful results. An optimized PCR-CGP test, coupled with an inclusive exception testing policy, delivered reportable results for > 94% of samples, potentially expanding the proportion of CGP-testable patients and impact of biomarker-guided therapies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The relationship between in-hospital mortality (IHM) and acute oesophageal variceal bleeding (AOEVB) has not been fully assessed. The aim of this study was to establish the association between sex and mortality for patients hospitalized with AOEVB. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed hospitalizations from the Italian Health Ministry database by identifying all patients discharged with AOEVB from January 2001 to December 2015. A total of 144,943 hospitalizations were for oesophageal varices, but only 24,570 emergency admissions with AOEVB coded as the primary or secondary diagnosis were included for analysis. Factors independently associated with IHM were evaluated by multilevel logistic regression. RESULTS Approximately half of the population was aged ≥ 65 years, and nearly 10% was diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma. Overall, the IHM was 11.8%, with 12.1% in males and 11.3% in females, increasing from 9.2% among subjects aged < 55 years to 18.9% among those aged ≥ 85 years. The crude risk of death was slightly higher among females; however, when age and clinical presentation were considered, female sex was associated with reduced mortality. For liver disease, the risk of death in women was lower only in those with non-alcoholic liver disease (odds ratio= 0.77, 0.66-0.89), but it was similar to that in men for unspecified, cancer and alcoholic liver disease. The risk declined over time and was increased in patients with multiple comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS AOEVB-related IHM decreased from 2001-2005 to 2011-2015. Factors affecting mortality included liver disease, age, sex, development of hepatocellular carcinoma and comorbidities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Seasonal variation may occur in many different diseases hence influencing awareness in clinical practice. This study aimed to establish seasonal variations of acute pancreatitis by using a validated chronobiological analysis. PATIENTS AND METHODS All cases of acute pancreatitis consecutively observed in fifteen years, i.e., from January 2003 to December 2017, at St. Anna University Hospital of Ferrara, Italy, were included in this study. Accurate statistical and logistic regression analyses were applied to our database. RESULTS A total number of 1883 consecutive cases of acute pancreatitis were observed. A significant peak was identified in the summer period (p=0.014). Patient stratification, according to age, showed that elderly people had an increased incidence of acute pancreatitis in autumn and summer (being the biliary stone disease the main cause, p=0.011) vs. other seasons (p=0.003). Mortality occurred more prominently in males vs. females, although the latter gender was more prone to acute pancreatitis (p=0.017). CONCLUSIONS In a single centre of Northern East of Italy, we demonstrated that acute pancreatitis had a clear seasonal variation with a prominent incidence during summer. Various associated factors could contribute to this chronobiological pattern, including gender, age, and biliary stone disease.

Abstract
Mastio et al. describe monocytic precursors of granulocytes. These precursors are barely detectable in steady state conditions and are not consequential for differentiation of granulocytes. However, they accumulate in cancer and substantially contribute to PMN-MDSC expansion. We have identified a precursor that differentiates into granulocytes in vitro and in vivo yet belongs to the monocytic lineage. We have termed these cells monocyte-like precursors of granulocytes (MLPGs). Under steady state conditions, MLPGs were absent in the spleen and barely detectable in the bone marrow (BM). In contrast, these cells significantly expanded in tumor-bearing mice and differentiated to polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs). Selective depletion of monocytic cells had no effect on the number of granulocytes in naive mice but decreased the population of PMN-MDSCs in tumor-bearing mice by 50%. The expansion of MLPGs was found to be controlled by the down-regulation of Rb1, but not IRF8, which is known to regulate the expansion of PMN-MDSCs from classic granulocyte precursors. In cancer patients, putative MLPGs were found within the population of CXCR1+CD15−CD14+HLA-DR−/lo monocytic cells. These findings describe a mechanism of abnormal myelopoiesis in cancer and suggest potential new approaches for selective targeting of MDSCs.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells (PMN-MDSCs) are pathologically activated neutrophils that are crucial for the regulation of immune responses in cancer. These cells contribute to the failure of cancer therapies and are associated with poor clinical outcomes. Despite recent advances in the understanding of PMN-MDSC biology, the mechanisms responsible for the pathological activation of neutrophils are not well defined, and this limits the selective targeting of these cells. Here we report that mouse and human PMN-MDSCs exclusively upregulate fatty acid transport protein 2 (FATP2). Overexpression of FATP2 in PMN-MDSCs was controlled by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, through the activation of the STAT5 transcription factor. Deletion of FATP2 abrogated the suppressive activity of PMN-MDSCs. The main mechanism of FATP2-mediated suppressive activity involved the uptake of arachidonic acid and the synthesis of prostaglandin E2. The selective pharmacological inhibition of FATP2 abrogated the activity of PMN-MDSCs and substantially delayed tumour progression. In combination with checkpoint inhibitors, FATP2 inhibition blocked tumour progression in mice. Thus, FATP2 mediates the acquisition of immunosuppressive activity by PMN-MDSCs and represents a target to inhibit the functions of PMN-MDSCs selectively and to improve the efficiency of cancer therapy.

Abstract
Tumor-sequencing studies have revealed the widespread genetic diversity of melanoma. Sequencing of 108 genes previously implicated in melanomagenesis was performed on 462 patient-derived xenografts (PDXs), cell lines, and tumors to identify mutational and copy number aberrations. Samples came from 371 unique individuals: 263 were naive to treatment, and 108 were previously treated with targeted therapy (34), immunotherapy (54), or both (20). Models of all previously reported major melanoma subtypes (BRAF, NRAS, NF1, KIT, and WT/WT/WT) were identified. Multiple minor melanoma subtypes were also recapitulated, including melanomas with multiple activating mutations in the MAPK-signaling pathway and chromatin-remodeling gene mutations. These well-characterized melanoma PDXs and cell lines can be used not only as reagents for a large array of biological studies but also as pre-clinical models to facilitate drug development.

Abstract
Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death throughout the world. Despite new chemotherapeutic, immunomodulating and molecularly targeted agents, patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease still have a poor prognosis. This trial looked to combine antiangiogenic therapy with a first‐line cytotoxic chemotherapy doublet, hoping to extend median progression‐free survival (PFS) while minimizing toxicity in patients with advanced nonsquamous non–small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In this single institution, single‐arm study, 51 patients (age >18 yo) were followed from 2007 to 2012. Patients with stage IV nonsquamous NSCLC and patients with recurrent unresectable disease (nonradiation candidates) were eligible. Treatment consisted of carboplatin AUC 5 IV 30‐60 minutes, pemetrexed 500/mg2IV 10 minutes, bevacizumab 15 mg/kg IV (90 minutes 1st dose, 60 minutes 2nd dose, 30 minutes subsequent doses). Treatment was administered every 21 days and planned for 6 cycles, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicities. Growth factor support was not permitted prophylactically but allowed for toxicities, as were dose reductions. Maintenance treatment for those with stable disease or better consisted of Bevacizumab 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks for up to 1 year. Between November 2007 and March 2012, 51 patients were followed in the phase II trial of carboplatin, pemetrexed, and bevacizumab. Patients were enrolled over a 24‐month period. After the end of treatment visits, subjects were followed at least every 3 months for survival data. The median follow‐up period was 49 weeks (6 weeks to 178), and the median number of treatment cycles was 6 (range, 1‐6). Among the 50 patients assessable for response, median overall survival was 49 weeks (95% CI, 0‐62.7) with median PFS of 28 weeks (95% CI, 0‐132.4). A complete or partial response was seen in 28 (59.5%) patients. Grade 3‐4 treatment‐related adverse events occurred in 9 (17.6%) of 51 patients; the most common were thrombocytopenia (4 [7.8%]) and neutropenia (3 [5.9%]). Three (5.8%) of 51 patients were discontinued because of treatment‐related adverse events (grade 3 diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, dehydration, fatigue, and grade 4 respiratory distress), and 1 patient (1.9%) was found to be ineligible due to anticoagulation use. A novel 3‐drug combination for advanced nonsquamous NSCLC shows promising efficacy with modest toxicity.

Abstract
Aims To investigate the distribution of basement membrane components type IV collagen and laminin in synovial sarcomas. Methods Paraffin sections from four synovial sarcomas were studied by the peroxidase-antiperoxldase procedure using specific antibodies to type IV collagen and laminin. Results Type IV collagen and laminin immunoreactivity was confined around epithelial areas in biphasic tumors. Several interruptions and discontinuities of the linear basement membrane profile were seen in sites of transition between mesenchymal and epithelial tissue. Moreover, a spot-like immunoreactivity was often observed in the spindle cell component of biphasic tumors. Monophasic tumors were either negative or showed a pericellular staining for both type IV collagen and laminin. Conclusions The distribution of basement membrane components is clearly related to the formation of epithelial elements in biphasic synovial sarcoma. The spot-like immunoreactivity of the spindle cell component, and the basement membrane interruptions at the boundary between mesenchymal and epithelial tissue, are both consistent with early basement membrane formation by developing epithelium. These findings support the concept that synovial sarcomas are basically soft tissue carcinosarcomas and that the epithelial component of the tumors develops by conversion of mesenchyme to epithelium.

Abstract
Aims and background Various histogenetic mechanisms have been postulated to explain the biphasic carcinomatous-sarcomatous appearance of malignant mixed müllerian tumors (MMMTs), but the nature of these uncommon neoplasms is still unclear. Some evidence would suggest that MMMT displays similarities with sarcomatoid carcinoma, a tumor arising in extragenital sites that also features a mixed appearance. To gain further insight into the histogenesis of this tumor, we have studied by immunohistochemistry a case of uterine MMMT showing an extensive rhabdomyosarcomatous component. Methods A panel of antibodies including reactivity for p53, cytokeratin, vimentin, desmin, muscle actin, epithelial membrane antigen (EMA), myoglobin, type IV collagen, laminin, and tenascin was applied to paraffin tumor sections by means of the avidin-biotin complex technique. Results p53 immunoreactivity was observed in approximately the same number of cells in carcinomatous and sarcomatous tissue. The former stained for vimentin, cytokeratin and EMA, while the latter, in addition to expressing vimentin, desmin, muscle actin and myoglobin, also exhibited immunoreactivity for epithelial markers such as cytokeratin and EMA. At the borders between carcinoma and sarcoma the basement membrane pattern, as seen by staining for type IV collagen and laminin, showed interruptions in correspondence with areas of transition between the two tissues. Antibody to tenascin strongly labeled the sarcomatous tissue immediately around carcinomatous elements. Conclusions A similar immunoreactivity for p53 in both carcinomatous and sarcomatous components, expression of epithelial markers in the sarcomatous cells, and disruption of the basement membrane profile in areas of transition between carcinomatous and sarcomatous tissue, would all suggest, as has been postulated for extragenital sarcomatoid carcinomas, an origin from a common epithelial clone and an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transformation-based mechanism of development for this MMMT. In addition, these findings provide further analogies between these categories of tumors, supporting a unifying nosological concept for MMMTs and sarcomatoid carcinomas of non-genital tract origin.

Abstract
Aims Eight sarcomatoid carcinomas from various anatomical locations were investigated by immunohistochemical staining to laminin, type IV collagen and heparan sulfate proteoglycan, to study the characteristics of basement membranes at the interface between carcinomatous and sarcomatous tissues. Methods Paraffin wax embedded tissue sections from representative tumor samples have been stained with specific antibodies, using the peroxidase-antiperoxidase technique. Results In all cases several interruptions or discontinuities of the basement membrane staining pattern were seen. In 4 cases, larger defects or complete loss of staining was also noted. At these places, the boundaries between carcinomatous and sarcomatous tissue were often blurred. Conclusions Disruption and loss of basement membranes at interface between carcinomatous and sarcomatous tissues is a frequent finding in sarcomatoid carcinomas. These changes could be consistent with an epithelial origin of the sarcomatous component in these tumors by means of an epithelial-mesenchymal conversion mechanism.

Abstract
Liposarcoma is a soft tissue tumor usually observed in adults. Although occasional cases have been reported in childhood, it is virtually unknown in infants and small children. Our experience documents a case of liposarcoma in a 6-year-old girl, an extremely rare occurrence in this age-group. The patient underwent wide local excision followed by chemotherapy. Histologically, the tumor was a myxoid type. Differential diagnosis and problems concerning prognosis and therapy of this tumor in children are discussed.

Abstract
Footpad dermatitis and lameness are a major welfare concern in broiler chicken farming. In general, footpad lesions are linked to poor environmental conditions. Ulcers that arise from advanced lesions can negatively affect the gait of the birds, with effects on the animal welfare, including, in the worst cases, inability to reach the feed or water. In this study, the degree of footpad dermatitis and lameness was manually scored on 4 broiler farms across Europe, as part of an EU-wide welfare assessment program. The welfare of the chickens was assessed 3 times per production cycle (at wk 3, 4, and 5), scoring footpad dermatitis, lameness, and litter quality. In the same broiler farms, variables such as air temperature and relative humidity were automatically measured over the same period. These variables were combined into a widely accepted thermal comfort index and associated to upper and lower thresholds, which made it possible to quantify the percentage of time the birds spent out of the thermal comfort zone (POOC). The data was analyzed by combining data from the welfare assessments with environmental data collected by the automated monitoring systems. Considering the comparison between POOC classes, the highest probabilities of footpad dermatitis and lameness were obtained when POOC values exceeded the 70% threshold. Therefore, the analysis showed that footpad dermatitis and lameness were more frequent when the flock was exposed to poor environmental conditions for prolonged periods ( < 0.001). Since environmental conditions can be continuously measured, and the risk factor for footpad dermatitis and lameness increases with poor environmental conditions, there is the possibility to develop a detection and control system of severe lesions.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132), an ADC targeting Trop-2, an antigen present in many solid tumors, uses SN-38, a topoisomerase I inhibitor that has nanomolar potency derived from irinotecan (IRI), and a pH sensitive linker that releases SN-38 gradually (in vitro, 50% released per 1 day in serum). Clinical studies in patients (pts) with diverse solid tumors have shown manageable toxicity (dose-limiting neutropenia, diarrhea but lower incidence than IRI) and encouraging efficacy.
METHODS: Conjugate and IgG were monitored in pts given 8 (N = 24) or 10 mg/kg (N = 29) by ELISA. SN-38 and glucuronidated SN-38 (SN-38G) were measured by reversed-phase HPLC. SN-38 and SN-38G levels are expressed as the amount of drug dissociated from the conjugate (i.e., Free SN-38) and the amount bound to the IgG (Total SN-38). UGT1A1 status was determined in baseline blood sample from 146 pts.
RESULTS: IMMU-132 cleared with a half-life of 11.7-18.9 h, depending on the assay, while the IgG half-life was 4-5 days, which agrees with in vitro drug-release data. Levels of Free SN-38 at 30 min or 1 d after injection were <2% and ~ 5% of Total SN-38, respectively, indicating most SN-38 in serum is bound to the conjugate. Free SN-38 clears with a half-life of ~20 h, which is consistent with SN-38 clearance in IRI therapy. No correlation was found between Free SN-38 in serum at 30 min and the incidence of severe neutropenia. Total and Free levels of SN-38G were similar, supporting in vitro results indicating that SN-38 is not glucuronidated while bound to the IgG. Free SN-38G levels were lower than Free SN-38 (SN-38G/SN-38 AUC ratio = 0.52), explaining the lower incidence of severe diarrhea. PK parameters for 8 and 10 mg/kg group were similar; no major differences in toxicity. UGT1A1 status showed 43% and 44% with *1*1 and *1*28 haplotype, respectively, and 13% with *28*28 haplotype, which is associated with higher risk of severe neutropenia and diarrhea for IRI therapy. With IMMU-132, 58% of the *28*28 pts had severe neutropenia compared to ~40% of the *1*1 and *1*28 pts, and 16% of the *28*28 pts had grade 3 diarrhea compared to 5-8% of the *1*1 and *1*28. In 3 of 4 cancer indications, objective response rate and clinical benefit ratio favored the 10 mg/kg group.
CONCLUSION: IMMU-132 cleared as predicted from in vitro serum stability data, with no difference between the 8 and 10 mg/kg groups. Current data show neutropenia did not correlate with Free SN-38 levels in serum at 30 min, and low SN-38G levels support the lower incidence of severe diarrhea. While pts with the *28*28 haplotype had a somewhat higher incidence of severe neutropenia or diarrhea than *1*1 and *1*28 pts, the overall incidence of each is small, suggesting toxicity management rather than screening is appropriate. With no major difference in safety and PK, but improved responses with 10 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg is selected for future clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unclear whether the efficacy and long-term outcome of treating patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive cirrhosis with the new protease inhibitors will extend to those with Child C cirrhosis. AIM To assess the effectiveness of the interferon-free regimens in Child C cirrhotic patients with HCV infection. METHODS A systematic Medline search was conducted to retrieve studies describing the treatment of Child C patients with direct-acting agents. Citations from identified studies were cross-referenced and abstracts from European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) and American Association for the Study of Liver Disease (AASLD) meetings were checked. Extracted data were evaluated using a meta-analysis to calculate a weighted response rate. RESULTS Seven full-text records and two conference abstracts were retained for analysis from the 649 records identified. Data from an Italian real-life trial were also interrogated. Information on treatment outcome was available for 228 of the 240 Child C patients evaluated in the 10 trials. Overall, the weighted mean sustained virological response (SVR12) was 74.9% (95% CI: 65.6-82.4%). Neither duration of treatment (24 or 12 weeks), nor addition of ribavirin influenced these rates. The weighted SVR12 was 65.4% (95% CI: 46.8-80.2) after sofosbuvir/simeprevir, 76.0% (95% CI: 54.4-89.3%) after sofosbuvir/daclatasvir and 83.0% (95% CI: 73.4-89.6) after sofosbuvir/ledipasvir. Some studies did not provide information on the rate of post-treatment relapse or functional improvement. However, in those studies that did provide such data, a relapse was documented in 12.1% of patients and an improvement of ≥2 points on the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score in 61.1% of patients. CONCLUSION The improvement in MELD scores strongly suggests HCV-positive patients with Child C cirrhosis should be treated with these agents.

Abstract
Purpose Trop-2, expressed in most triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs), may be a potential target for antibody-drug conjugates. Sacituzumab govitecan, an antibody-drug conjugate, targets Trop-2 for the selective delivery of SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan. Patients and Methods We evaluated sacituzumab govitecan in a single-arm, multicenter trial in patients with relapsed/refractory metastatic TNBC who received a 10 mg/kg starting dose on days 1 and 8 of 21-day repeated cycles. The primary end points were safety and objective response rate; secondary end points were progression-free survival and overall survival. Results In 69 patients who received a median of five prior therapies (range, one to 12) since diagnosis, the confirmed objective response rate was 30% (partial response, n = 19; complete response, n = 2), the median response duration was 8.9 (95% CI, 6.1 to 11.3) months, and the clinical benefit rate (complete response + partial response + stable disease ≥ 6 months) was 46%. These responses occurred early, with a median onset of 1.9 months. Median progression-free survival was 6.0 (95% CI, 5.0 to 7.3) months, and median overall survival was 16.6 (95% CI, 11.1 to 20.6) months. Grade ≥ 3 adverse events included neutropenia (39%), leukopenia (16%), anemia (14%), and diarrhea (13%); the incidence of febrile neutropenia was 7%. The majority of archival tumor specimens (88%) were moderately to strongly positive for Trop-2 by immunohistochemistry. No neutralizing antibodies to the ADC or antibody were detected, despite repeated cycles developed. Conclusion Sacituzumab govitecan was well tolerated and induced early and durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic TNBC. As a therapeutic target and predictive biomarker, Trop-2 warrants further research.

Abstract
Abstract
Background. mTNBC has an aggressive course with limited effective therapy options and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 2-4 months (mos) with standard therapy. Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132) is an ADC targeting Trop-2, an antigen present in many epithelial cancers, including TNBC, and delivering SN-38, a topoisomerase I inhibitor as its therapeutic moiety. IMMU-132 was awarded Breakthrough Therapy designation by FDA based on its previously reported activity in relapsed/refractory mTNBC patients. Here we present updated results from the mTNBC cohort of an ongoing phase I/II study (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01631552).
Methods. mTNBC patients (pts) received IMMU-132 10 mg/kg on days 1 and 8 every 21 days. Trop-2 expression was not required for enrollment, but available tumor specimens underwent immunohistological (IHC) testing. Efficacy was assessed locally by RECIST 1.1; ORR, PFS and overall survival (OS) were determined for all pts. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated in select pts with adequate blood sampling. Immunogenicity to IMMU-132 was examined in all pts.
Results. We previously reported preliminary efficacy results in 51 mTNBC patients. Here we present data on 69 patients with data cutoff June 5, 2016. Median age was 56 years (31-81) and a median of 5 prior therapies (range 1-12), with 66 evaluable for response; ORR was 29% (19/66) 2 confirmed complete (CR) and 17 confirmed partial responses (PR). The median intention-to-treat PFS is 5.6 mos (95% CI, 3.6-7.1 mos) and median OS is 14.3 mos (95% CI, 10.5-18.8 mos). PRs included 2 pts whose tumors did not respond to anti-PD-L1 therapy. The duration of response in the 19 confirmed responders (8 continuing therapy) is 11.5 mos (95% CI = 7.6 to 12.7). The clinical benefit rate (CR+PR+SD>6 mos) for the 66 assessable patients is currently 45.5%. The majority (88%) of archival tumor specimens were moderately (2+) to strongly (3+) positive by IHC for Trop-2, precluding using Trop-2 expression as a selection criterion. Among current adverse events, grade >3 drug-related toxicities included neutropenia (35%), leukopenia (16%), anemia (13%), vomiting (9%), diarrhea (10%), and febrile neutropenia (4%). Clearance kinetics in 8 pts showed IMMU-132 and IgG had a terminal half-life of 15.3 ± 2.7 h and 86.5 ± 40.5 h, respectively, with area under the curve for free SN-38 (unbound) only 3% of the total amount of SN-38 (e.g., IgG bound). Thus, most SN-38 remains bound to the conjugate, and is released at a rate predicted from in vitro serum stability studies. No pt developed anti-IMMU-132 antibodies.
Conclusion The Trop-2-targeting ADC, IMMU-132, delivering cytotoxic doses of SN-38, shows high objective and durable tumor responses with manageable toxicity in heavily-pretreated pts with mTNBC in this updated cohort, supporting further development in this population with an unmet medical need.

Abstract
An observational methodology was used to evaluate the differences between men's and women's conformity to a single source of influence. A total of 226 adults (115 men and 111 women) were observed in three cafeteria settings. Diners eating in pairs in which the lead diner selected a dessert were identified based on their sex and their position in dyad. The sex of the lead person (the model), the sex of following person (the subject), and whether the following person conformed to the lead by selecting a dessert were recorded. Analysis indicated a significant difference between men's and women's willingness to conform to one model. Women conformed more often than men when the models were male or female. Moreover, compared with men, they showed an even stronger tendency to conform to the behavior of a same-gender model.

Abstract
Abstract
Advanced melanoma has seen dramatic changes in standard of care in the last years and many novel targeted small molecules and immune checkpoint inhibitors are in development. More than 200 clinical trials are currently ongoing for metastatic melanoma. Thus, accurate pre-clinical models to predict clinical responses are urgently needed. We have established a large bank of live tumor tissue (n=500) with more than 300 models expanded as PDX. Melanoma tumor tissue is uniquely suited to establish patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, since only one tumor cell can initiate tumor growth. Thus, our success rate is at 90% using NSG mice and matrigel for s.c. implantation of minced tissue chunks. We have opted for such a large number of models due to the genomic and clinical heterogeneity of melanoma based on available TCGA data. Although almost half of all melanomas harbor BRAF V600 hotspot mutations, followed in frequency by NRAS and NF1 mutations, many driver mutations are only found in a small subset and many mutations are occurring concurrently in various confirmations. We used a custom targeted capture of 108 genes previously implicated in melanoma, and performed massively parallel sequencing on currently 200 PDX. Samples were then clustered into groups based on deleterious mutations which were detected in all but a very small subset of samples. The biological relevance of these multiple genomic subsets was then tested against latency, growth rate, and spontaneous metastasis in PDX. Further, clinical information such as age, gender, history, and response to therapies provided additional parameters to classify this collection into meaningful subgroups. In conclusion, this collection of melanoma PDX recapitulates the breadth of advanced melanoma in the clinic and therefore a comprehensive resource for precision medicine testing in an increasingly scattered therapy landscape.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a complication of chronic liver disease, with impact on morbidity, quality of life, and survival. The progress of medicine and the new therapies stretched the disease's natural history and improved the survival of patients with liver disease. So, it is fundamental to make better the quality of life and to prevent complications. Metabolic bone disorders are common complications of chronic liver disease (CLD). Patients with CLD have an increased risk of bone fractures, with significant impact on morbidity, quality of life, and even on survival. Bone diseases, including osteomalacia, osteoporosis, and osteopenia, are frequently observed in many types of liver disease. The pathogenesis of damage and the mechanisms of bone loss are different in relation to the specific liver disease. The relevance of these conditions induced many authors to create a new nosographic entity known as "hepatic osteodystrophy", although this term is rarely used anymore and it is now commonly referred to as osteopenia or osteoporosis associated with chronic liver disease. This review is based on the personal experiences of the authors and upon research done of the available literature on this subject matter. The authors searched the PubMed database for publications containing the term "liver disease" in combination with "bone disease", "hepatic osteodistrophy", "osteoporosis", "osteopenia", "osteomalacia", and "fractures". They selected publications from the past 10 years but did not exclude older seminal publications, especially for colestatic liver diseases. This review of literature shows that osteoporosis crosses all CLD. It is important to underline that the progress of medicine and the new therapies stretched the disease's natural history and improved the survival of patients with CLD. It is fundamental to make better the quality of life and it is mandatory to prevent complications and in particular the osteoporotic ones, especially fractures.

Abstract
Abstract
The abnormal differentiation of myeloid cells is one of the key features of altered immune response in cancer. Myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and tumor associated macrophages (TAM) are the major components of immune suppressive network. MDSC accumulate in large numbers in peripheral lymphoid organs and inside tumors. However, in contrast to peripheral lymphoid organs such as spleen, inside tumors, monocytic MDSC rapidly differentiate to TAM with potent immune suppressive activity. We have demonstrated that this phenomenon is mediated by dramatic down-regulation of STAT3 activity in MDSC in tumor site. In cancer patients, MDSC in tumor site also had substantially lower level of pSTAT3 than MDSC in peripheral blood. These results were unexpected, since high level of STAT3 activity is a hallmark of MDSC present in blood and lymphoid organs. The mice with constitutively active STAT3 had shown the expansion of MDSC and down-regulation of macrophage population in tumor microenvironment, emphasizing the crucial role of STAT3 in myeloid cell differentiation. Hypoxia is an intricate part of tumor microenvironment. The decreased STAT3 activity was caused by hypoxia and affected all myeloid cells but was not observed in tumor cells. We further demonstrate that the up-regulation of CD45 tyrosine phosphatase activity in MDSC exposed to hypoxia in tumor site was responsible for down-regulation of STAT3 activity. Moreover, the positive regulation of CD45 activity in hypoxia was mediated by the disruption of CD45 protein dimerization via sialylation. This suggests a novel role of STAT3 in the regulation of myeloid cells in tumors with potential implications for therapeutic targeting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment outcomes for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients diagnosed at stage IIIA have been analyzed in many studies, which generally involve patients younger and healthier than the average patient with this disease. OBJECTIVE To analyze demographics and treatment outcomes in patients with stage IIIA NSCLC at a community cancer center. METHODS We reviewed charts of 226 patients diagnosed with stage IIIA NSCLC from January 2003 to December 2008 treated at our community cancer center. Results Median overall survival for all patients and sequentially and concurrently treated chemoradiation patients were 18 months, and 18 months, and 20 months, respectively. Median overall survival for women and men was 24 months and 16 months, respectively. RESULTS Median overall survival for all patients and sequentially and concurrently treated chemoradiation patients were 18 months, and 18 months, and 20 months, respectively. Median overall survival for women and men was 24 months and 16 months, respectively. LIMITATIONS Study design was retrospective and some medical records were not available. However, this population is likely representative of patients treated in similar settings. CONCLUSIONS In our population, advanced age and male gender were associated with lower median survival. Responses to concurrent and sequential chemoradiation seemed to differ based on age group, which may be useful as a prognostic guideline for similar populations.

Abstract
Large granular lymphocytic (LGL) leukemia is a fairly uncommon hematological malignancy, generally indolent in nature. Two patients with this entity receiving care at the Helen F. Graham Cancer Center and Research Institute (HFGCCRI) are described, who together illustrate the great range of severity that can exist in this disease. One patient, SM, presented with life-threatening anemia, yet another patient, TD, presented merely with asymptomatic lymphocytosis. Management differed accordingly, comprising methotrexate therapy for SM and active surveillance for TD. Recognizing the full spectrum of this condition is key to formulating an appropriate management plan.

Abstract
Abstract
Despite the prevalence of recurrent, high activating BRAF V600 mutations in 45% of tumors, cutaneous melanoma (CM) is a heterogeneous malignancy resulting from aberrant signaling in multiple pathways. It has been traditionally characterized by activation of the MAPK and PI3K signaling pathways, as well as cell cycle disruption. In recent years, whole-genome and exome sequencing studies have identified several new genes associated with melanomagenesis. However, a comprehensive understanding of concurrent, and mutually exclusive, mutations in tumors is currently lacking. Using a custom targeted capture of 108 genes previously implicated in melanoma pathogenesis, massively parallel sequencing was performed on 94 human melanoma cell lines, 67 patient-derived xenografts (PDX), and 5 cell lines made from PDX, all untreated. Samples were then clustered into groups based on deleterious mutations. 83% of samples had deleterious mutations in the MAPK signaling pathway, including 92 high activity BRAF (55%), 35 RAS codon 61 (21%), 7 with multiple mutations (e.g. low activity BRAF/RAS codons 12/13) (4%) and 10 NF1 (6%) mutated samples. Likely deleterious NF1 mutations were found in several BRAF or NRAS-mutated samples. PI3K pathway mutations were found in 10% of samples, predominantly associated with BRAF mutations. TP53 mutations were found in 24% of samples and were associated with all MAPK signaling mutations. Mutations in chromatin remodeling genes (ARID1A/1B, ARID2, TRRAP, and BAP1) were mutually exclusive with each other and primarily found in tumors with high activity BRAF or NRAS mutations. The majority of BRAF or RAS-mutated samples with a mutation in a chromatin remodeling gene lacked mutations in cell cycle, TP53, and PI3K signaling genes; however, 100% of deleterious, or likely deleterious, NF1-mutated samples with a chromatin remodeling gene mutation harbored additional mutations in cell cycle, TP53, and/or PI3K signaling genes. Of particular interest, five of the 10 NF1-mutated samples (50%) lacked BRAF, RAS, and MEK1/2 mutations but harbored likely deleterious mutations in MAP3K5 or MAP3K9, suggesting the potential involvement of the JNK signal transduction pathway in this particular cohort. Only 4% of samples did not have a deleterious mutation in any of the genes on the panel. These data reveal novel insights into the genetics of melanomas lacking a canonical BRAF V600 mutation. Functional assays are needed to confirm the biological relevance of likely deleterious mutations, which will further facilitate a more thorough classification of CM subsets.

Abstract
Pig vocalisations convey information about their current state of health and welfare. Continuously monitoring these vocalisations can provide useful information for the farmer. For instance, pig screams can indicate stressful situations. When monitoring screams, other sounds can interfere with scream detection. Therefore, identifying screams from other sounds is essential. The objective of this study was to understand which sound features define a scream. Therefore, a method to detect screams based on sound features with physical meaning and explicit rules was developed. To achieve this, 7 hours of labelled data from 24 pigs was used. The developed detection method attained 72% sensitivity, 91% specificity and 83% precision. As a result, the detection method showed that screams contain the following features discerning them from other sounds: a formant structure, adequate power, high frequency content, sufficient variability and duration.

Abstract
Abstract
The approval of three drugs targeting the MAPK pathway has led to new standard therapies for melanoma with BRAFV600E mutations. The excitement about these therapeutic successes is somewhat dampened by the relapse of most if not all treated patients due to the development of acquired (secondary) resistance. Early clinical trial results indicate that combining BRAF and MEK inhibitors can improve survival and delay the onset of resistance. Currently, there is a lack of good translational models to study resistance pathways found in patients. We have developed a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) bank for assessing patients' responses to therapies.
Human melanoma tissues were obtained following surgery, and small pieces were implanted subcutaneously with Matrigel® into NSG mice. This technique was advantageous over injecting single tumor cells. It also allows prior dissociation and freezing for extended time periods prior to injection. The xenografts maintained a histological architecture similar to the respective patients' lesions. NSG mice injected with tumor fragments and single cells allow a high rate of tumor growth of approximately 90%, even if few malignant cells from fine needle aspirates are injected. When injecting decreasing numbers of tumor cells after removal of endothelial cells, hematopoietic cells and red blood cells (but not fibroblasts), in 5 out of 7 cases single malignant cells induced tumors. Our current tumor bank contains 125 samples linked to patients' clinical data and characterized for mutational status and spontaneous metastasis rates (25%). DNA fingerprinting was matched to normal blood DNA if available to assure identity of the samples. The samples had a similar distribution pattern of genetic abnormalities to those in patients, thus allowing their use for mutation-specific therapy strategies. As an example, a PDX from a patient with intrinsic resistance to vemurafenib was grown to compare tumor growth on a 200 ppm BRAF inhibitor (PLX4720) diet, 200 ppm PLX4720 + 7 ppm MEK inhibitor (PD0325901) combination diet, or control diet for 21 days. As in the original patient, the BRAF inhibitor alone did not inhibit tumor growth, while the combination of BRAF and MEK inhibition showed significant tumor growth inhibition demonstrating that a PDX can predict clinical outcome.

Abstract
Scleroderma is a group of rare chronic connective tissue disorders characterized by collagen accumulation that causes tissue hardening with consequent fibrosis. Skin involvement is mostly frequent, although several internal organs can be impaired (heart, lungs, liver, etc.). In childhood, juvenile localized scleroderma (JLS) is more frequently observed; in this subtype cutaneous lesions predominate frequently on the limbs but also on the face and scalp; in this case, it is referred to as scleroderma "en coup de sabre" (ECDS). Neurological abnormalities have been described in association with ECDS as an effect of progressive scalp and underlying tissues involvement. Up to now, no validated biomarkers exist to evaluate disease evolution and, in this way, frequently diagnosis of central nervous system (CNS) involvement occurs when patients are already symptomatic. We describe the case of a 5-year old girl, with a diagnosis of ECDS characterized by the typical scalp lesion, with slight subsidence of the underlying diploe. In this case, radiological examination has been essential to evaluate the degree of progression of skin and soft tissues lesions and to clarify the right therapeutic approach. In selected JLS children, both MRI and CT with 3D reconstruction images provide a useful tool to monitor disease evolution and to address therapeutic choices.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to test whether aggressive actions among piglets could be redirected by an automatically generated sound signal followed by a sweet food reward. Per round, four litters of 25-day-old piglets (BHZP breed) were trained 5 times per day over 8 days to expect a sweet feed reward from a dog feeder after hearing a specific sound. In total 144 piglets in 14 entire litters were trained in five trials. At the end of the training 71% of the piglets were around the feeder 5 s after the feeder sound. After the training period, the piglets were weaned and mixed in two pens, 12 piglets per pen. During 2 days (3 h/day) after mixing two observers (one per pen) hidden behind a wooden wall activated the feeder when aggressive or abnormal behaviour started. A total of 616 aggressive events and 31 incidences of abnormal behaviour (ear biting) were used for the analysis. The logistic regression showed that the type of behaviour had a significant effect on the piglets’ response to the feeder sound (P < 0.001). The results showed the possibility of interruption of the aggressive behaviours such as head thrust [odds ratio (OR) = 0.43], jump on other (OR = 0.56) or attack with bite (OR = 0.61). Ear biting was very unlikely to continue (OR = 0.55). The risk of continuing elevated aggression level behaviours was doubled in the event of chasing (OR = 2.16) and the risk that fight would continue after the feeder sound was released was 7 times higher (OR = 7.89). Categorical analysis showed a significant effect (<0.001) of the time intervals t ≤ 1 s and 1 s < t ≤ 3 s on interruption of aggression by the feeder sound release. The piglets’ response to the feeder sound differed significantly between the experimental days (P < 0.001). On the second day of mixing, the feeder sound interrupted 74.9% of aggressive events, compared with 33.7% on the first day. The results suggest that acoustic-reward treatment can distract pigs from performing certain aggressive behaviours and ear biting in piglets when properly applied in time.

Abstract
In the past decades, the increasing scale of intensive pig farms led farmers to use automatic tools to monitor the welfare and health of their animals. Visual observation and manual monitoring, usually practiced in small-scale farms, is unreliable in large-scale husbandry, and is expensive and time consuming. Environmental parameters are crucial information for the efficient management of piggery buildings, as they have a significant effect on production efficiency, health and welfare of confined animals. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between pig activity and environmental parameters in a pig building by means of image analysis. The barn for 350 fattening pigs was open-space, mechanically ventilated and subdivided into 16 pens with fully slatted floor. The room was equipped to monitor the ventilation rate, internal and external temperature and relative humidity every minute. For the experiments, two adjacent pens were selected, each 5.9 by 2.6 m, with ~16 pigs in each. Pigs were continuously monitored during 30 days using an infrared-sensitive CCD camera that was mounted 5 m above the floor. Recorded data were processed in real time by Eyenamic, an innovative software that continuously and automatically registers the behaviour of a group of animals, intended as the activity and occupation indices of the pigs. A preliminary virtual subdivision of the two pens in four zones (two zones for each pen) was performed to evaluate differences in activity/occupation indices in ‘front’ and ‘back’ zones of the pen. Recorded images were visually observed in the laboratory to estimate pig activity type in relation to the indices calculated by Eyenamic software. The occupation index showed higher values (up to 0.75 units) in Zones 1 and 4 placed near the corridor. There was a significant relation between pig occupation index measured in the two pens and ventilation rate, temperature and humidity. The interaction between ventilation and humidity and temperature and humidity significantly affected pig movements during the day. Pigs tended to stay in the part of the pen far from the external wall, where air velocity was higher, probably because this is a ‘central zone’ in the barn, characterised by a reasonable air movement (~0.30 m/s). On the contrary, the part of the pen nearest to the external wall, characterised by a humid floor surface and by a limited air speed, was occupied by animals at the trough mainly during feeding times and for defecation and urination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lactobacillus species might positively affect gastrointestinal motility. These Gram-positive bacteria bind Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) that elicits anti-inflammatory activity and exerts protective effects on damage induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Whether such effect occurs in gastrointestinal smooth muscle has not been established yet. Aim of this study was to characterize the effects of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) and of supernatants harvested from LGG cultures on human colonic smooth muscle and to explore their protective activity against LPS-induced myogenic morpho-functional alterations. METHODS The effects of LGG (ATCC 53103 strain) and of supernatants have been tested on both human colonic smooth muscle strips and isolated cells in the absence or presence of LPS obtained from a pathogenic strain of Escherichia coli. Their effects on myogenic morpho-functional properties, on LPS-induced NFκB activation, and on cytokine production have been evaluated. Toll-like receptor 2 expression has been analyzed by qPCR and flow cytometry. KEY RESULTS Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG exerted negligible transient effects per se whereas it was capable of activating an intrinsic myogenic response counteracting LPS-induced alterations. In particular, both LGG and supernatants significantly reduced the LPS-induced morpho-functional alterations of muscle cells, i.e. cell shortening and inhibition of contractile response. They also hindered LPS-induced pro-inflammatory effects by decreasing pro-inflammatory transcription factor NFκB activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 secretion, and restored the secretion levels of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL10. CONCLUSIONS & INFERENCES Taken together these data demonstrate that LGG protects human colonic smooth muscle from LPS-induced myogenic damage and might be beneficial on intestinal motor disorders due to bacterial infection.

Abstract
Viral hepatitis reactivation has been widely reported in patients undergoing immunosuppressive therapy; however, few data are available about the risk of HBV and HCV reactivation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, receiving immunosuppressive drugs. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of HBV and HCV infection in a consecutive series of patients with inflammatory bowel disease and to value the effects of immunosuppressive therapy during the course of the infection. Retrospective observational multicenter study included all consecutive patients with inflammatory bowel disease who have attended seven Italian tertiary referral hospitals in the last decade. A total of 5096 patients were consecutively included: 2485 Crohn's disease and 2611 Ulcerative Colitis. 30.5% and 29.7% of the patients were investigated for HBV and HCV infection. A total of 30 HBsAg positive, 17 isolated anti-HBc and 60 anti-HCV-positive patients were identified. In all, 20 patients with HBV or HCV infection received immunosuppressive therapy (six HBsAg+; four isolated anti-HBc+ and 10 anti-HCV+). One of six patients showed HBsAg+ and one of four isolated anti-HBc+ experienced reactivation of hepatitis. Two of six HBsAg patients received prophylactic therapy with lamivudine. Only one of 10 anti-HCV+ patients showed mild increase in viral load and ALT elevation. Screening procedures for HBV and HCV infection at diagnosis have been underused in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We confirm the role of immunosuppressive therapy in HBV reactivation, but the impact on clinical course seems to be less relevant than previous reported.
