BACKGROUND: Although previous studies have demonstrated that tumor deposits (TDs) are associated with worse prognosis in colon cancer, their clinical significance in rectal cancer has not been fully elucidated, especially in the lateral pelvic lymph node (LPLN) area. This study aimed to clarify the clinical significance of TDs, focusing on the number of metastatic foci, including lymph node metastases (LNMs) and TDs, in the LPLN area. METHODS: This retrospective study involved 226 consecutive patients with cStage II/III low rectal cancer who underwent LPLN dissection. Metastatic foci, including LNM and TD, in the LPLN area were defined as lateral pelvic metastases (LP-M) and were evaluated according to LP-M status: presence (absence vs. presence), histopathological classification (LNM vs. TD), and number (one to three vs. four or more). We evaluated the relapse-free survival of each model and compared them using the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Harrell's concordance index (c-index). RESULTS: Forty-nine of 226 patients (22%) had LP-M, and 15 patients (7%) had TDs. The median number of LP-M per patient was one (range, 1-9). The best risk stratification power was observed for number (AIC, 758; c-index, 0.668) compared with presence (AIC, 759; c-index, 0.665) and histopathological classification (AIC, 761; c-index, 0.664). The number of LP-M was an independent prognostic factor for both relapse-free and overall survival, and was significantly associated with cumulative local recurrence. CONCLUSION: The number of metastatic foci, including LNMs and TDs, in the LPLN area is useful for risk stratification of patients with low rectal cancer.

BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has enabled comprehensive genomic profiling to identify gene alterations that play important roles in cancer biology. However, the clinical significance of these genomic alterations in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients has not yet been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical significance of genomic profiling data, including copy number alterations (CNA) and tumor mutation burden (TMB), in TNBC patients. METHODS: A total of 47 patients with Stage I-III TNBC with genomic profiling of 435 known cancer genes by NGS were enrolled in this study. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated for their association to gene profiling data. RESULTS: CNA-high patients showed significantly worse DFS and OS than CNA-low patients (p = 0.0009, p = 0.0041, respectively). TMB was not associated with DFS or OS in TNBC patients. Patients with TP53 alterations showed a tendency of worse DFS (p = 0.0953) and significantly worse OS (p = 0.0338) compared with patients without TP53 alterations. Multivariable analysis including CNA and other clinicopathological parameters revealed that CNA was an independent prognostic factor for DFS (p = 0.0104) and OS (p = 0.0306). Finally, multivariable analysis also revealed the combination of CNA-high and TP53 alterations is an independent prognostic factor for DFS (p = 0.0005) and OS (p = 0.0023). CONCLUSIONS: We revealed that CNA, but not TMB, is significantly associated with DFS and OS in TNBC patients. The combination of CNA-high and TP53 alterations may be a promising biomarker that can inform beyond standard clinicopathologic factors to identify a subgroup of TNBC patients with significantly worse prognosis.

BACKGROUND: The definition and classification of regional nodes are not standardized for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. This study aimed to clarify the rational extent of regional lymphadenectomy and to elucidate the impact of number-based regional nodal classification on survival of patients with this disease. METHODS: Data of 136 patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgery were reviewed. The incidence of metastasis and the survival of patients with metastasis were calculated for each node group. RESULTS: The incidence of metastasis for the node groups in the hepatoduodenal ligament (denoted as no. 12) ranged from 3.7% to 25.4%, with 5-year disease-specific survival of 12.9% to 33.3% for patients with metastasis. The incidences of metastasis in the common hepatic artery (no. 8) and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal (no. 13a) node groups were 14.4% and 11.2%, respectively, with 5-year disease-specific survival rates of 16.7% and 20.0% for the patients with metastasis. When these node groups were defined as regional nodes, the 5-year disease-specific survival rates for the patients with pN0 (n = 80), pN1 (1-3 positive nodes, n = 38), and pN2 (≥ 4 positive nodes, n = 18) were 61.4%, 22.9%, and 17.6%, respectively (p < 0.001). The pN classification was independently associated with disease-specific survival (p < 0.001). When only the no. 12 node groups were regarded as regional nodes, pN classification failed to stratify the patients prognostically. CONCLUSIONS: No. 8 and no. 13a node groups should be considered regional nodes in addition to no. 12 node groups and should be dissected. The number-based regional nodal classification allows patients with this disease to be stratified prognostically.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to clarify potential candidates for anatomic resection (AR) among patients with pathological T1-T2 (pT1-T2) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to determine whether AR is effective for HCC with microscopic vascular invasion (MVI). METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 288 patients with pT1a (n = 50), pT1b (n = 134) or pT2 (n = 104) HCC who underwent curative-intent resection between 1990 and 2010. Surgical outcomes were compared between patients who underwent AR (n = 189) and those who underwent nonanatomic resection (NAR; n = 99) according to pT category and MVI status. RESULTS: Patients who underwent AR were more likely to have good hepatic functional reserve and an aggressive primary tumor than those who underwent NAR. When patients were stratified according to pT category, AR had a more favorable impact on survival than NAR only in patients with pT2 HCC in univariate (5-year survival, 51.5% vs. 34.6%; p = 0.010) and multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 0.505; p = 0.014). However, AR had no impact on survival in patients with pT1a or pT1b HCC. In patients with MVI (n = 57), AR achieved better survival than NAR (5-year survival, 52.0% vs. 16.7%; p = 0.019) and was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio 0.335; p = 0.020). In patients without MVI (n = 231), there was no significant difference in survival between the two groups (p = 0.221). CONCLUSION: AR was identified as an independent factor in improved survival in patients with pT2 HCC or HCC with MVI.

INTRODUCTION: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major life-threatening complications in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Previous studies of CD-associated CRC (CD-CRC) have involved only small numbers of patients, and no large series have been reported from Asia. The aim of this study was to clarify the prognosis and clinicopathological features of CD-CRC compared with sporadic CRC. METHODS: A large nationwide database was used to identify patients with CD-CRC (n = 233) and sporadic CRC (n = 129,783) over a 40-year period, from 1980 to 2020. Five-year overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and clinicopathological characteristics were investigated. The prognosis of CD-CRC was further evaluated in groups divided by colon cancer and anorectal cancer (RC). Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used to adjust for confounding by unbalanced covariables. RESULTS: Compared with sporadic cases, patients with CD-CRC were younger; more often had RC, multiple lesions, and mucinous adenocarcinoma; and had lower R0 resection rates. Five-year OS was worse for CD-CRC than for sporadic CRC (53.99% vs 71.17%, P < 0.001). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed that CD was associated with significantly poorer survival (hazard ratio 2.36, 95% confidence interval: 1.54-3.62, P < 0.0001). Evaluation by tumor location showed significantly worse 5-year OS and RFS of CD-RC compared with sporadic RC. Recurrence was identified in 39.57% of CD-RC cases and was mostly local. DISCUSSION: Poor prognosis of CD-CRC is attributable primarily to RC and high local recurrence. Local control is indispensable to improving prognosis.

INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate the association between the preoperative Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score, survival outcomes, and recurrence pattern in patients with resectable biliary tract cancer (BTC). METHODS: A total of 224 BTC patients (gallbladder, n = 69; intrahepatic bile ducts, n = 26; perihilar bile ducts, n = 72; distal bile duct, n = 57) who underwent surgery with curative intent were enrolled. The best cutoff point of the preoperative CONUT score in discriminating survival was determined using χ2 scores. The sites of recurrence were subclassified as locoregional or distant. RESULTS: Patients were subdivided into the CONUT-low (score ≤ 3, n = 156) and the CONUT-high (score > 3; n = 68) groups. In-hospital mortality occurred more frequently in the CONUT-high group than in the CONUT-low group (7.4% vs. 1.3%; p = 0.028). A high preoperative CONUT score was independently associated with worse overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] 1.906, p = 0.001), worse disease-specific survival (HR 1.840, p = 0.006), and worse recurrence-free survival (HR 1.680, p = 0.005). Recurrence developed in 110 (49.1%) patients. A high preoperative CONUT score was independently associated with a higher risk of distant recurrence (HR 2.245, p = 0.001), but not locoregional recurrence. The incidences of distant recurrence at 5 years were 55.4% and 34.2% in the CONUT-high and CONUT-low groups, respectively (p = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The preoperative CONUT score independently predicts survival outcomes and may serve as a surrogate marker of aggressive systemic disease recurrence in patients with resectable BTC.

We report a case of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC)with lymph node metastases in which long-term survival was achieved after surgery followed by chemotherapy. A 69-year-old man underwent left hepatectomy, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and lymph node dissection for ICC located mainly in segment 4 of the liver with enlarged lymph nodes in the hepatoduodenal ligament. The histopathologically confirmed diagnosis was ICC(T2N1M0, Stage ⅣA)with 3 positive lymph nodes(No. 12a1, No. 12p1, and No. 12p2). He received chemotherapy with gemcitabine(GEM)plus cisplatin(CDDP)for 9 months, followed by GEM monotherapy for 4 months, and then S-1 monotherapy was started. A right lung nodule was detected 12 months after the initiation of S-1 monotherapy. He received GEM plus S-1 therapy for 28 months, followed by S-1 monotherapy, leading to disappearance of the lung nodule. He remains alive and well without disease 78 months after surgery. Our experience in this case suggests that radical resection followed by chemotherapy may provide a survival benefit in selected patients who have ICC with nodal disease.

BACKGROUND: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a serious complication after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer. The objective of this study was to identify the risk factors for AL. METHODS: Patients with esophageal cancer who underwent curative esophagectomy and cervical esophagogastric anastomosis between 2009 and 2019 (N = 346) and those between 2020 and 2022 (N = 17) were enrolled in the study to identify the risk factors for AL and the study to assess the association between the risk factors and blood flow in the gastric conduit evaluated by indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging, respectively. RESULTS: AL occurred in 17 out of 346 patients (4.9%). Peptic or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcer scars were independently associated with AL (OR 6.872, 95% CI 2.112-22.365) in addition to diabetes mellitus. The ulcer scars in the anterior/posterior gastric wall were more frequently observed in patients with AL than in those without AL (75.0% vs. 17.4%, P = 0.042). The median flow velocity of ICG fluorescence in the gastric conduits with the scars was significantly lower than in those without the scars (1.17 cm/s vs. 2.23 cm/s, P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS: Peptic or ESD ulcer scarring is a risk factor for AL after esophagectomy in addition to diabetes mellitus. The scars in the anterior/posterior gastric wall are significantly associated with AL, impairing blood flow of the gastric conduit. Preventive interventions and careful postoperative management should be provided to minimize the risk and severity of AL in patients with these risk factors.

BACKGROUND: Patients with longstanding inflammatory bowel disease are at high risk of developing intestinal cancers. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the differences between intestinal cancers associated with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. METHODS: Intestinal cancers in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients treated between 1983 and 2020 at 43 Japanese institutions were retrospectively analyzed.. RESULTS: A total of 1505 intestinal cancers in 1189 ulcerative colitis and 316 Crohn's disease patients were studied. Almost all of ulcerative colitis-associated cancers (99%) were in the colon and rectum, whereas half of Crohn's disease-associated cancers (44%) were in the anus, with 11% in the small intestine. Ulcerative colitis-associated cancers were diagnosed more frequently by surveillance (67% vs. 25%, P < 0.0001) and at earlier stages (stages 0-1, 71% vs. 27%, P < 0.0001) compared with Crohn's disease-associated cancers. Colorectal cancers associated with Crohn's disease showed a significantly worse 5-year overall survival rate than those associated with ulcerative colitis (stage 2, 76% vs. 89%, P = 0.01, stage 3, 18% vs. 68%, P = 0.0009, and stage 4, 0% vs. 13%, P = 0.04). Surveillance correlated with earlier diagnoses for ulcerative colitis- and Crohn's disease-associated intestinal cancers, whereas shorter intervals between endoscopic examinations correlated with an earlier cancer diagnosis in ulcerative colitis patients but not in Crohn's disease patients. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical and oncological features of ulcerative colitis- and Crohn's disease-associated cancers were very different. Crohn's disease-associated cancers were diagnosed at more advanced stages and were detected less frequently by surveillance. Additionally, they showed a significantly poorer prognosis.

BACKGROUND: Recent improvements in systemic chemotherapy have provided an opportunity for patients with stage IV gastric cancer (GC) to undergo conversion surgery (CS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients who underwent CS and to elucidate the prognostic factors for CS in stage IV GC. METHODS: A total of 79 patients who underwent CS with the aim of R0 resection for stage IV GC at six institutions from January 2008 to July 2019 were enrolled. We retrospectively reviewed the clinicopathological data and prognosis. RESULTS: Of the 79 patients, 23 (31.1%) had initially resectable disease (IR) before chemotherapy, defined as positive for cancer on peritoneal cytology (CY1), resectable hepatic metastasis, or para-aortic lymph node No. 16a2/b1 metastasis. Of the 56 remaining patients with primary unresectable disease, 39 had peritoneal dissemination. R0 resection was accomplished in 63 patients (79.7%). The 3-year OS rates for patients with IR and unresectable disease were 78.3% and 44.5%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that IR (P = 0.014) and R0 (P = 0.014) were statistically significant independent prognostic factors for favorable OS. Among patients with peritoneal dissemination alone, OS was significantly better for patients with R0 resection than for patients with R1/2 resection, with the 3-year OS rates of 65.5% and 23.1%, respectively (P = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS: CS is a treatment option for selected patients with stage IV GC. Patients with IR and patients who achieve R0 resection may obtain a survival benefit from CS.

The patient was a 71-year-old man with a diagnosis of duodenal carcinoma. Abdominal computed tomography(CT) showed no distant metastasis, and he underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was not administered. A left supraclavicular lymph node recurrence was detected on CT 15 months after surgery. Capecitabine and oxaliplatin(CAPOX)therapy was administered and the metastatic lesion shrank. Positron emission tomography(PET)-CT showed no lesions at other sites and left cervical lymph node dissection was performed 5 months after the recurrence. Postoperative adjuvant therapy with S-1 was administered for 6 months. However, 2 years and 10 months after the first recurrence, CT showed recurrence in the left supraclavicular lymph node. CAPOX therapy was resumed, but due to an allergic reaction to oxaliplatin, the patient was treated with capecitabine alone. The recurrent lesion was gradually increased in size, and FOLFIRI therapy was introduced. One year and 5 months after secondary recurrence, PET-CT showed that the second recurrent lesion had grown but was confined to the left supraclavicular lymph node, so radiation therapy(60 Gy)to the left neck was performed. The disease was stable for about 10 months and chemotherapy could be discontinued. The lesion increased in size thereafter, and the patient died 7 years after initial surgery.

BACKGROUND: Severe neutropenia, including febrile neutropenia, is a major toxicity of systemic chemotherapy that leads to delays in treatment, higher costs, and mortality. Severe neutropenia may occur during neoadjuvant chemotherapy even when the patients are free from known risk factors. Pegfilgrastim, a covalent conjugant of filgrastim that stimulate the production of neutrophils, is used for prevention. The current study aimed to reveal the characteristics of patients who need pegfilgrastim for primary prophylaxis to prevent severe neutropenia, including febrile neutropenia and grade 3 neutropenia, during neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 83 patients treated with neoadjuvant adriamycin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel chemotherapy was performed. The factors which associated with severe neutropenia were examined by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: Severe neutropenia developed in one of 22 patients (5%) with pegfilgrastim for primary prophylaxis and in 17 of 61 patients (28%) without it. In 83 patients, the incidence of severe neutropenia was significantly decreased in the patients with pegfilgrastim for primary prophylaxis shown by the univariate analysis (P = 0.023) and multivariate analysis (P = 0.030). In 61 patients without pegfilgrastim for primary prophylaxis, the univariate analysis showed that severe neutropenia was associated with tumor size (P = 0.004), clinical stage (P = 0.009), and cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) (P = 0.026). The multivariate analysis showed that clinical stage was associated with severe neutropenia (P = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS: The current study demonstrated that advanced stage is a risk for severe neutropenia in patients treated with neoadjuvant adriamycin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel chemotherapy. Given that prophylaxis with pegfilgrastim was associated with significantly lower incidence of severe neutropenia, patient with advance stage breast cancer may benefit from pegfilgrastim during neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

A 53-year-old woman underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy(SSPPD)for resectable pancreatic cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Postoperatively, she received hepatic arterial infusion of 5-FU and S-1 chemotherapy. Two years after SSPPD, abdominal computed tomography showed a 2-cm mass in the remnant pancreas, which was diagnosed as recurrence of cancer by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. Staging laparoscopy was performed and peritoneal washing cytology(CY)was positive. She then received gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel chemotherapy for 8 months. After that, staging laparoscopy was performed again and negative CY was confirmed. A total remnant pancreatectomy with splenectomy was performed. She received chemotherapy after pancreatectomy and is now alive and well without recurrence 2 years and 1 month after the second surgery. Although positive CY is a poor prognostic factor, surgery combined with perioperative chemotherapy may contribute to prolonged survival for some patients who have recurrence in the remnant pancreas with positive CY.

A 71-year-old man with middle thoracic esophageal cancer was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy using docetaxel plus 5-FU plus cisplatin therapy and was also administered pegfilgrastim. Blood tests showed elevated white blood cell counts and C-reactive protein levels before the start of the third course. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed wall thickening of the aortic arch. We diagnosed this as aortitis due to pegfilgrastim. Inflammation was improved with conservative treatment. We then performed video-assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy. Drug-induced vasculitis should be included in the differential diagnosis of patients with elevated inflammation markers of unknown cause following the administration of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor preparations.

Neurenteric cyst (NC) shows benign histopathology and rarely demonstrate malignant transformation. We herein describe a case of NC that exhibited malignant transformation. A 65-year-old female presented with gait disturbance due to compression by a cystic mass on the dorsal surface of the medulla oblongata. Partial resection was performed twice, leading to improvement of her symptoms. Two years after the second surgery, gadolinium-perfused T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging revealed an invasive lesion with contrast enhancement at the trigone of the left lateral ventricle for which partial resection followed by radiotherapy was performed. However, mass regrowth was observed, with the patient eventually succumbing to her disease 11 months after her third surgery. Histopathological analyses of the first and second surgical specimens identified pseudostratified cuboidal epithelial cells, with no nuclear or cellular atypia resembling gastrointestinal mucosa, lining the inner surface of the cystic wall. Based on these findings the lesion was diagnosed as NC. The third surgical specimen exhibited apparent malignant features of the epithelial cells with elongated and hyperchromatic nuclei, several mitotic figures, small necrotic foci, and a patternless or sheet-like arrangement. Based on these findings, the lesion was diagnosed as NC with malignant transformation. Next-generation sequencing revealed KRAS p.G12D mutation in all specimens. Additionally, the third surgical specimen harbored the following 12 de novo gene alterations: ARID1A loss, BAP1 p.F170L, CDKN1B loss, CDKN2A loss, CDKN2B loss, FLCN loss, PTCH1 loss, PTEN loss, PTPRD loss, SUFU loss, TP53 loss, and TSC1 loss. The aforementioned results suggest that KRAS mutation is associated with the development of the NC, and that the additional gene alterations contribute to malignant transformation of the NC.

A 74-year-old man presented to our hospital with a mass in the left supraclavicular fossa. He was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer with liver metastasis and left supraclavicular and para-aortic lymph node metastasis, cT3N2M1 (LYM, HEP), cStage Ⅳ(the Union for International Cancer Control, TNM 7th edition). He received a total of 3 courses of S- 1 plus cisplatin therapy. Since he developed adverse reactions such as anorexia, renal dysfunction, and thrombocytopenia and the tumor was HER2-positive, he received 25 courses of capecitabine, cisplatin, and trastuzumab chemotherapy. Three years and 2 months after the first chemotherapy, remarkable tumor reduction was observed. The patient then underwent radical distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy, and R0 resection was achieved. The histopathological diagnosis was ypT1aN0M0, ypStage ⅠA. Chemotherapy with trastuzumab may improve the long-term prognosis of HER2-positive Stage Ⅳ gastric cancer if the disease is controlled and radical resection can be achieved.

A woman in her 60s had been aware of perianal erosions for 1 month. Skin biopsy showed Paget's cells in the stratified squamous epithelium, and immunohistochemistry showed negative staining for CK7 and positive staining for CK20. Colonoscopy revealed well-differentiated adenocarcinoma in the anal canal. Computed tomography showed neither regional lymph node metastasis nor distant metastasis. Hence, she was diagnosed with anal canal carcinoma with pagetoid spread. We determined the extent of resection of the skin lesion preoperatively by mapping biopsy, and performed laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection. The pathological findings revealed adenocarcinoma(tub1, tub2), and the skin resection margin was negative. Immunohistochemistry for Paget's cells in the stratified squamous epithelium showed negative staining for GCDFP-15 and CK7, and positive staining for CK20. Twenty-four months after surgery, we detected right inguinal lymph node metastasis and performed right inguinal lymphadenectomy. As of 4 months after the lymphadenectomy, no local recurrence or distant metastasis has been detected during follow-up examinations.

Ulcerative colitis-associated neoplasia (UCAN) harbors unique genetic alterations and mutational tendencies. The clinical application of gene panel testing enables precision medicine by tailoring treatment to individual gene alterations. We hypothesized that gene panel testing may detect clinically important genetic alterations in UCAN, with potential usefulness for the diagnosis and treatment of UCAN. In the present study, gene panel testing was used to identify genetic alterations in UCAN, and the possibility of clinical utility of gene panel testing in UCAN was investigated. The present study included 15 patients with UCAN, and gene panel testing was performed to identify genetic alterations associated with diagnosis and treatment. Genetic alterations of UCAN were compared with those of 203 patients with sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). APC and PTEN mutations were less frequent, while RNF43 frameshift or nonsense mutations were more frequent in UCAN compared with sporadic CRC. TP53 mutations were identified in 13/15 patients (87%) with UCAN. Notably, 4/15 patients (27%) with UCAN had no genetic alterations other than TP53 mutation, while this occurred in 1/203 patients (0.5%) with sporadic CRC (P<0.001). Microsatellite instability-high was identified in 2/15 patients (13%) with UCAN. Mutational signature 3, which is associated with homologous recombination deficiency, was detected in 14/15 patients (93%) with UCAN, and enriched in UCAN compared with sporadic CRC (P=0.030). In conclusion, gene panel testing can detect important genetic alterations that can be useful for diagnosis and treatment in UCAN, and may provide clinicians with important information for tailored treatment strategies.

The outer mucus layer of the colorectal epithelium is easily removable and colonized by commensal microbiota, while the inner mucus layer is firmly attached to the epithelium and devoid of bacteria. Although the specific bacteria penetrating the inner mucus layer can contact epithelial cells and trigger cancer development, most studies ignore the degree of mucus adhesion at sampling. Therefore, we evaluated whether bacteria adhering to tissues could be identified by removing the outer mucus layer. Our 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis of 18 surgical specimens of human colorectal cancer revealed that Sutterella (P = 0.045) and Enterobacteriaceae (P = 0.045) were significantly enriched in the mucus covering the mucosa relative to the mucosa. Rikenellaceae (P = 0.026) was significantly enriched in the mucus covering cancer tissues compared with those same cancer tissues. Ruminococcaceae (P = 0.015), Enterobacteriaceae (P = 0.030), and Erysipelotrichaceae (P = 0.028) were significantly enriched in the mucus covering the mucosa compared with the mucus covering cancers. Fusobacterium (P = 0.038) was significantly enriched in the mucus covering cancers compared with the mucus covering the mucosa. Comparing the microbiomes of mucus and tissues with mucus removed may facilitate identifying bacteria that genuinely invade tissues and affect tumorigenesis.

Gastric cancer is a Lynch syndrome (LS)-associated tumor, with the cumulative lifetime risk in LS patients estimated to be 5.8-13%. Hence, surveillance for gastric cancer is important for LS patients, especially in those with a family history of gastric cancer or of Asian descent. We report a very rare case of a LS patient who showed gastric metastasis from jejunal adenocarcinoma curatively resected 8 years prior. A 79-year-old female was diagnosed with a synchronous gastric submucosal tumor (SMT) and right-sided colon cancer. She was referred to our hospital as she and her family had histories of LS-associated tumors. She underwent curative intent surgery for the tumors. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed the gastric SMT was an adenocarcinoma completely covered by non-neoplastic gastric mucosa. Immunohistochemical analyses showed the gastric SMT had the same expression pattern for CDX2, cytokeratins 7 and 20 as the jejunal adenocarcinoma. Thirty-four months after surgery the patient is alive without recurrence or any other LS-associated tumors. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of gastric metastasis from small bowel adenocarcinoma in a LS patient. Awareness of this case may be important for gastric cancer surveillance in LS patients.

With the discovery of bacterial symbiosis in the tissues of various cancers, the study of the tumor microbiome is attracting a great deal of attention. Anatomically, since the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and pancreas form a continuous ductal structure, the microbiomes in the digestive juices of these organs may influence each other. Here, we report a series of microbiome data in tumor-associated tissues such as tumor, non-tumor, and lymph nodes, and body fluids such as saliva, gastric juice, pancreatic juice, bile, and feces of patients with pancreatic or biliary tract cancers. The results show that the microbiome of tumor-associated tissues has a very similar bacterial composition, but that in body fluids has different bacterial composition which varies by location, where some bacteria localize to specific body fluids. Surprisingly, Akkermansia was only detected in the bile of patients with biliary tract cancer and its presence was significantly associated with the performance of external biliary drainage (P = 0.041). Furthermore, we found that tumor-associated tissues and body fluids in deep inner body are mostly inhabited by unidentified and uncharacterized bacteria, suggesting that such bacteria may be potential targets for precision therapy in the future.

Gastrointestinal duplications are congenital malformations that are usually observed in pediatric patients. Diagnosis in adulthood is quite rare, and preoperative diagnosis of gastrointestinal duplication is difficult, particularly in the small intestine. We encountered an extremely rare adult case of duplication of the jejunum, which showed a stomach-like form diagnosed using double-balloon enteroscopy (DBE). The patient was an 18-year-old male who had been experiencing upper abdominal pain and vomiting repeatedly without any triggers for 3 years. Various examinations were performed, but no cause of symptoms was found. DBE revealed a narrow opening of the lumen at the upper jejunum, and the lumen was covered with mucosal folds similar to those of the stomach. Enteroclysis via DBE showed a tubular structure on the mesenteric side of the jejunum. We diagnosed a jejunal tubular duplication with ectopic gastric mucosa and underwent partial small bowel resection. The patient's abdominal symptoms resolved. From this, DBE can be a useful tool for diagnosing intestinal duplication in adults. We believe that this case and literature review will facilitate the accurate and prompt diagnosis of small intestinal duplication.

OBJECTIVES: Diversion colitis (DC) is an inflammatory disorder caused by interruption of the fecal stream and subsequent nutrient deficiency from luminal bacteria. The utility of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) for DC was recently investigated; however, the precise pathogenesis of this condition remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of autologous FMT in DC and to determine the related changes in the intestinal microbiota. METHODS: Autologous FMT was performed to reestablish the intestinal microbiota in five patients (average age, 64.6 ± 8.3 years) with DC. They underwent double-ended colostomy. We assessed the diverted colon by endoscopy and evaluated the microbiota before and after FMT using the 16S rRNA gene sequencing method. RESULTS: All five patients had mild inflammation (ulcerative colitis endoscopic index of severity [UCEIS] 2-3) in the diverted colon based on the colonoscopic findings. Three patients presented with symptoms, such as tenesmus, mucoid stool, and bloody stool. With FMT treatment, all patients achieved endoscopic remission (UCEIS score of 0 or 1) and symptomatic improvement. We observed a significantly decreased α-diversity in DC patients compared to healthy controls. The frequency of aerobic bacteria, such as Enterobacteriaceae, in the diverted colon decreased after autologous FMT. CONCLUSIONS: This study was the first to show that the microbiota in the diverted colon was significantly affected by autologous FMT. Since interruption of the fecal stream is central to the development of DC, FMT can be considered a promising treatment.

Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the colon and rectum are colorectal epithelial neoplasms with neuroendocrine differentiation. A platinum regimen used for small cell lung cancer is the currently recommended chemotherapy for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine carcinomas (GEP-NECs), regardless of the organ. The BRAF V600E mutation has been recently reported as a druggable driver mutation in colorectal NECs. In BRAF V600E mutant colorectal cancer, a combination of BRAF inhibitor and anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) antibody, with or without a MEK inhibitor, is recommended. Here, we report the case of 77-year-old man who had lymph node recurrence after surgery for primary ascending colonic NEC. Two cytotoxic regimens, cisplatin plus irinotecan and modified FOLFOX6, were administered as first- and second-line chemotherapies with no remarkable response observed. At this point, genetic analysis confirmed the tumor harbored a BRAF V600E mutation. Thus, a regimen of BRAF inhibitor plus anti-EGFR antibody was administered. After commencing this regimen, carcinoembryonic antigen levels decreased within normal range, and there was dramatic shrinkage of the lymph node metastases observed by chest and abdominal computed tomography scans. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a colorectal NEC responding to a BRAF inhibitor and anti-EGFR antibody.

BACKGROUND: ARID1A is a component of the SWI/SNF complex, which controls the accessibility of proteins to DNA. ARID1A mutations are frequently observed in colorectal cancers (CRCs) and have been reported to be associated with high mutational burden and tumor PD-L1 expression in vitro. AIM: To clarify the role of ARID1A mutation in CRC. METHOD AND RESULTS: We used next generation sequencing (NGS) and immunohistochemistry on clinically obtained samples. A total of 201 CRC tissues from Niigata University and Niigata Center Hospital were processed by NGS using the CANCERPLEX panel. Immunohistochemistry for ARID1A, PD-L1, MLH1, and MSH2 was performed on 66 propensity-matched (33 microsatellite instability-high [MSI-H] and 33 microsatellite-stable [MSS]) cases among 499 cases from Kyushu University. TCGA data were downloaded from cBioPortal. NGS showed significantly more mutations in ARID1A mutated CRCs (p = 0.01), and the trend was stronger for right-sided CRCs than left-sided. TCGA data confirmed these findings (p < 0.01). BRAF V600E and ATM mutations were also found at higher frequencies. Immunohistochemistry showed that 30% of MSI-H CRCs had ARID1A loss, while this was true in only 6% of MSS CRCs. In both MSI-H and MSS, PD-L1 expression by stromal cells was enhanced in the ARID1A-mutant groups (90% vs 39% in MSI-H, 100% vs 26% in MSS). CONCLUSION: We found a higher mutational burden in ARID1A-mutant CRCs, and IHC study showed that ARID1A loss was correlated with high PD-L1 expression in stromal cells regardless of MSI status. These data support the idea that mutant ARID1A is a potential biomarker for CRCs.

Although numerous experiments revealed an essential role of a lipid mediator, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), in breast cancer (BC) progression, the clinical significance of S1P remains unclear due to the difficulty of measuring lipids in patients. The aim of this study was to determine the plasma concentration of S1P in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive BC patients, as well as to investigate its clinical significance. We further explored the possibility of a treatment strategy targeting S1P in ER-positive BC patients by examining the effect of FTY720, a functional antagonist of S1P receptors, on hormone therapy-resistant cells. Plasma S1P levels were significantly higher in patients negative for progesterone receptor (PgR) expression than in those positive for expression (p = 0.003). Plasma S1P levels were also significantly higher in patients with larger tumor size (p = 0.012), lymph node metastasis (p = 0.014), and advanced cancer stage (p = 0.003), suggesting that higher levels of plasma S1P are associated with cancer progression. FTY720 suppressed the viability of not only wildtype MCF-7 cells, but also hormone therapy-resistant MCF-7 cells. Targeting S1P signaling in ER-positive BC appears to be a possible new treatment strategy, even for hormone therapy-resistant patients.

A 70-year-old female with liver metastases from gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)that were found 3 months after partial gastrectomy for the primary GIST underwent Auchincloss operation for left breast cancer with ipsilateral axillary lymph node metastases. The diagnosis was microinvasive ductal cancer that was pT1miN1M0, pStage ⅡA, hormone receptor negative, and HER2 positive. Given the impact of this cancer on the prognosis of liver metastases of GIST, imatinib therapy, but not adjuvant chemotherapy, was started promptly for breast cancer after surgery. Four months after the surgery, left subclavian lymph node recurrence of breast cancer was found. Since the liver metastases of GIST had been stable, imatinib was discontinued, and paclitaxel and anti-HER2 therapy were administered. After confirming tolerability, imatinib was carefully added in combination. Because the lymph nodes shrank and liver metastases of GIST were stable, both anti-HER2 therapy and imatinib were continued. There are few reports of combined chemotherapy for synchronous double cancer, and we report our experience in which careful treatment was required.

A 72-year-old man had a chief complaint of anal pain and difficulty in defecation. He was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma by biopsy from a tumor of the anal canal. A computed tomography scan revealed neither regional lymph node metastasis nor distant metastasis. Hence, he was diagnosed with cT3N0M0, cStage Ⅱa anal canal cancer. Preoperative capecitabine- based chemoradiotherapy(CRT)(50.4 Gy in 28 fractions of 1.8 Gy each)was implemented. Digital rectal examination and imaging evaluation 8 weeks after preoperative CRT revealed that the tumor had shrunk. Fifteen weeks after preoperative CRT, laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection was performed. The pathological findings showed mucinous adenocarcinoma associated with anal fistula. At present, 12 months after the operation, no local recurrence and distant metastasis has been detected under follow-up evaluations.

A 62-year-old man was incidentally found to have a pancreatic tumor by CT. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer by EUS-FNAB. Gemcitabine(GEM)plus nab-paclitaxel(PTX)was started as neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)for resectable pancreatic cancer. However, after the end of the second course, the tumor grew rapidly and invaded the stomach, so NAC was discontinued, and surgery was performed. The pathological diagnosis was anaplastic ductal carcinoma of the pleomorphic cell type, and the histological response was Grade 1a. Multiple liver metastases appeared during adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1, so GEM plus nab-PTX and modified FOLFIRINOX were administered, but the therapeutic response was poor, the patient died 9 months after surgery. Anaplastic carcinoma has a poor response to chemotherapy and may be included with cancers showing treatment resistance to NAC, as seen in our case. It is necessary to pay attention to anaplastic carcinoma during the course of NAC for pancreatic cancer.

The patient was a 64-year-old man with diagnosis of pancreatic head cancer. Initially, abdominal CT showed pancreatic head tumor with bile duct invasion and no distant metastases including para-aortic lymph nodes(PALN). Although, subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy(SSPPD)and PALN sampling was performed, intraoperative frozen section examination revealed PALN metastasis. He had chronic kidney disease and was unsuitable for standard chemotherapy, SSPPD and PALN dissection was performed instead of standard chemotherapy. Histopathological examination of the resected specimens revealed invasive ductal carcinoma in the pancreatic head region and 11 nodes out of the 17 dissected PALN. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was performed. 22 months after surgery, intraabdominal lymph nodes metastasis and lung metastasis was found. 24 months after surgery, palliative radiation therapy at a dose of 40 Gy was performed. Systemic chemotherapy with gemcitabine alone was performed, but he was dead 67 months after the initial therapy.

BACKGROUND: Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a severe and refractory intestinal motility disorder. However, due to its rarity and difficult histological investigation, its pathophysiology has not been characterized. AIM: Therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine the role of esophageal high-resolution manometry (HRM) in CIPO and the histological and clinical characteristics of the disease. METHODS: Patients with CIPO were analyzed for clinical characteristics; histological findings; and clinical courses after therapeutic intervention. In addition, HRM was performed to determine the esophageal involvement. RESULTS: Eleven patients were diagnosed with CIPO, and five required the long period of parenteral nutrition showing impaired esophageal motility including achalasia and absent contractility diagnosed with HRM. The four of these five cases showed acute onset of the CIPO following the triggering events of pregnancy, appendicitis, and surgery. In contrast, other six patients with normal or Jackhammer esophagus on HRM had moderate severity of CIPO with gradual onset. The histological analyses revealed that the loss of the intestinal neural ganglion cells and layers by inflammation, destruction, and atrophy are related to the severity of the clinical course of the disease and esophageal HRM findings of achalasia and absent contractility. CONCLUSIONS: HRM may be useful to diagnose the severity of the clinical course and to determine the therapeutic options for CIPO.

BACKGROUND: Mesenteric lymph node (MLN) involvement is often observed in ovarian cancer (OC) with rectosigmoid invasion. This study aimed to investigate the clinical significance of MLN involvement in the pattern of liver metastasis in patients with OC. METHODS: We included 85 stage II-IV OC patients who underwent primary or interval debulking surgery. Twenty-seven patients underwent rectosigmoid resection, whose status of MLN involvement was judged from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining of resected specimens. The prognostic significance of clinicopathological characteristics, including MLN involvement, was evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: MLN involvement was detected in 14/85 patients with stage II-IV OC. Residual tumor status, cytology of ascites, and MLN involvement were independent prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS; p = 0.033, p = 0.014, and p = 0.008, respectively). When patients were classified into three groups (no MLN, one MLN, two or more MLNs), the number of MLNs involved corresponded to three distinct groups in PFS (p = 0.001). The 3-year cumulative incidence of liver metastasis of patients with MLN involvement was significantly higher than that of patients without MLN involvement (61.1% vs. 8.9%, p < 0.001). MLN involvement was significantly associated with liver metastasis of hematogenous origin (p < 0.001) compared with peritoneal disseminated origin. CONCLUSION: MLN involvement is an important prognostic factor in OC, predicting poor prognosis and liver metastasis of hematogenous origin.

BACKGROUND: Activin A receptor type 2A (ACVR2A) is one of the most frequently mutated genes in microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) gastric cancer. However, the clinical relevance of the ACVR2A mutation in MSI-H gastric cancer patients remains unclear. The aims of this study were to explore the effect of ACVR2A mutation on the tumor behavior and to identify the clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients with ACVR2A mutations. METHODS: An in vitro study was performed to investigate the biological role of ACVR2A via CRISPR/Cas9-mediated ACVR2A knockout MKN74 human gastric cancer cells. One hundred twenty-four patients with gastric cancer were retrospectively analyzed, and relations between MSI status, ACVR2A mutations, and clinicopathological factors were evaluated. RESULTS: ACVR2A knockout cells showed less aggressive tumor biology than mock-transfected cells, displaying reduced proliferation, migration, and invasion (P < 0.05). MSI mutations were found in 10% (13/124) of gastric cancer patients, and ACVR2A mutations were found in 8.1% (10/124) of patients. All ACVR2A mutations were accompanied by MSI. The 5-year overall survival rates of ACVR2A wild-type patients and ACVR2A-mutated patients were 57% and 90%, respectively (P = 0.048). Multivariate analysis revealed that older age (P = 0.015), distant metastasis (P < 0.001), and ACVR2A wild-type status (P = 0.040) were independent prognostic factors for overall survival. CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrated that gastric cancer patients with ACVR2A mutation have a significantly better prognosis than those without. Dysfunction of ACVR2A in MKN74 human gastric cancer cells caused less aggressive tumor biology, indicating the importance of ACVR2A in the progression of MSI-H tumors.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to elucidate the impact of anatomic location of residual disease (RD) after initial cholecystectomy on survival following re-resection of incidental gallbladder cancer (IGBC). METHODS: Patients with pT2 or pT3 gallbladder cancer (36 with IGBC and 171 with non-IGBC) who underwent resection were analyzed. Patients with IGBC were classified as follows according to the anatomic location of RD after initial cholecystectomy: no RD (group 1); RD in the gallbladder bed, stump of the cystic duct, and/or regional lymph nodes (group 2); and RD in the extrahepatic bile duct and/or distant sites (group 3). RESULTS: Timing of resection (IGBC vs. non-IGBC) did not affect survival in either multivariate or propensity score matching analysis. RD was found in 16 (44.4%) of the 36 patients with IGBC; R0 resection following re-resection was achieved in 32 patients (88.9%). Overall survival (OS) following re-resection was worse in group 3 (n = 7; 5-year OS, 14.3%) than in group 2 (n = 9; 5-year OS, 55.6%) (p = 0.035) or in group 1 (n = 20; 5-year OS, 88.7%) (p < 0.001). There was no survival difference between groups 1 and 2 (p = 0.256). Anatomic location of RD was independently associated with OS (group 2, HR 2.425, p = 0.223; group 3, HR 9.627, p = 0.024). CONCLUSION: The anatomic location of RD independently predicts survival following re-resection, which is effective for locoregional disease control in IGBC, similar to resection for non-IGBC. Not all patients with RD have poor survival following re-resection for IGBC.

Background: Esophageal involvement length (EIL) is a promising indicator of metastasis or recurrence in mediastinal lymph nodes (MLNs) in adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (EGJ). This study aimed to elucidate the accuracy of the preoperative endoscopic evaluations of EIL and its clinical significance in this disease. Materials and methods: In total, 75 patients with Siewert type II (N = 53) or III (N = 22) adenocarcinoma of the EGJ, who underwent surgical resection without preoperative therapy between 1995 and 2016 were enrolled. We retrospectively examined the accuracy of the preoperative endoscopic evaluations of EIL (preoperative EIL), compared to the pathologically evaluated EIL. Finally, we investigated the association between preoperative EIL and metastasis or recurrence in MLNs. Results: The accuracy of the preoperative EIL within a 1-cm interval was only 53.3%. Among patients with discordance between the pre- and postoperative evaluations, 68.6 % had the underestimation in the preoperative EIL. pN1-3 (OR = 5.85, 95% CI: 1.03-33.17) and undifferentiated histologic type (OR = 2.52, 95% CI: 0.89-7.14) were potential risk factors for the discordance. Regarding metastasis or recurrence in MLNs, preoperative EIL of 2-3 cm (OR = 10.41, 95% CI: 1.35-80.11) and >3 cm (OR = 8.33, 95% CI: 1.09-63.96) were independent predictors. Conclusion: Although the accuracy of the endoscopic evaluations of EIL is insufficient with many underestimations, EIL should be assessed in preoperative staging because of significant predictive power for metastasis or recurrence in MLNs.

AIMS: Tumour deposits (TDs) are an important prognostic marker in colorectal cancer. However, the classification, and inclusion in staging, of TDs has changed significantly in each tumour-node-metastasis (TNM) edition since their initial description in TNM-5, and terminology remains controversial. Expert consensus is needed to guide the future direction of precision staging. METHODS AND RESULTS: A modified Delphi consensus process was used. Statements were formulated and sent to participants as an online survey. Participants were asked to rate their agreement with each statement on a five-point Likert scale and also to suggest additional statements for discussion. These responses were circulated together with anonymised comments, and statements were modified prior to carrying out a second online round. Consensus was set at 70%. Overall, 32 statements reached consensus. There were concerns that TDs were currently incorrectly placed in the TNM system and that their prognostic importance was being underestimated. There were concerns regarding interobserver variation and it was felt that a clearer, more reproducible definition of TDs was needed. CONCLUSIONS: Our main recommendations are that the number of TDs should be recorded even if lymph node metastases (LNMs) are also present and that nodules with evidence of origin [extramural venous invasion (EMVI), perineural invasion (PNI), lymphatic invasion (LI)] should still be categorised as TDs and not excluded, as TNM-8 specifies. Whether TDs should continue to be included in the N category at all is controversial, and did not achieve consensus; however, participants agreed that TDs are prognostically worse than LNMs and the N1c category is suboptimal, as it does not reflect this.

BACKGROUND: Tumor mutational burden-high (TMB-H), which is detected with gene panel testing, is a promising biomarker for immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in colorectal cancer (CRC). However, in clinical practice, not every patient is tested for TMB-H using gene panel testing. We aimed to identify the histopathological characteristics of TMB-H CRC for efficient selection of patients who should undergo gene panel testing. Moreover, we attempted to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based algorithm to predict TMB-H CRC directly from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) slides. METHODS: We used two CRC cohorts tested for TMB-H, and whole-slide H&E digital images were obtained from the cohorts. The Japanese CRC (JP-CRC) cohort (N = 201) was evaluated to detect the histopathological characteristics of TMB-H using H&E slides. The JP-CRC cohort and The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) CRC cohort (N = 77) were used to develop a CNN-based TMB-H prediction model from the H&E digital images. RESULTS: Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) were significantly associated with TMB-H CRC (P < 0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) for predicting TMB-H CRC was 0.910. We developed a CNN-based TMB-H prediction model. Validation tests were conducted 10 times using randomly selected slides, and the average AUC for predicting TMB-H slides was 0.934. CONCLUSIONS: TILs, a histopathological characteristic detected with H&E slides, are associated with TMB-H CRC. Our CNN-based model has the potential to predict TMB-H CRC directly from H&E slides, thereby reducing the burden on pathologists. These approaches will provide clinicians with important information about the applications of ICIs at low cost.

PURPOSE: Outcomes following surgery for advanced gallbladder carcinoma remain unsatisfactory. This study aimed to determine the surgical outcome and effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy according to TNM stage in patients with gallbladder carcinoma. METHODS: A total of 200 patients undergoing surgery for gallbladder carcinoma were enrolled. Clinicopathological data were evaluated and surgical outcomes were compared between patients with and without adjuvant chemotherapy according to TNM stage. RESULTS: The 5-year overall survival (OS) after resection for patients with stage I (n = 27), IIA (n = 18), IIB (n = 28), IIIA (n = 25), IIIB (n = 43), IVA (n = 7), and IVB (n = 52) disease was 90.8%, 94.4%, 73.6%, 33.7%, 57.7%, 14.3%, and 11.8%, respectively (p < 0.001). R0 resection was performed in all patients with stage I or II disease, in 89.7% of those with stage III disease, and 69.5% of those with stage IV disease. For patients with stage III disease, adjuvant chemotherapy was associated with improved OS (5-year OS, 60.9% vs. 41.1%; p = 0.028) and was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 2.045; p = 0.039). For patients with stage IV disease, adjuvant chemotherapy appeared to affect OS (5-year OS, 25.1% vs. 5.3%; p = 0.041); R0 resection (hazard ratio, 1.882; p = 0.040) was the only independent prognostic factor. CONCLUSION: TNM stage clearly predicts survival after resection of gallbladder carcinoma. R0 resection with adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended for long-term survival in the multimodal management of patients with stage III or IV gallbladder carcinoma.

PURPOSE: Clinical calculators and nomograms have been endorsed by the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC), as they provide the most individualized and accurate estimate of patient outcome. Using molecular and clinicopathologic variables, a third-generation clinical calculator was built to predict recurrence following resection of stage I-III colon cancer. METHODS: Prospectively collected data from 1,095 patients who underwent colectomy between 2007 and 2014 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center were used to develop a clinical calculator. Discrimination was measured with concordance index, and variability in individual predictions was assessed with calibration curves. The clinical calculator was externally validated with a patient cohort from Washington University's Siteman Cancer Center in St Louis. RESULTS: The clinical calculator incorporated six variables: microsatellite genomic phenotype; AJCC T category; number of tumor-involved lymph nodes; presence of high-risk pathologic features such as venous, lymphatic, or perineural invasion; presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes; and use of adjuvant chemotherapy. The concordance index was 0.792 (95% CI, 0.749 to 0.837) for the clinical calculator, compared with 0.708 (95% CI, 0.671 to 0.745) and 0.757 (0.715 to 0.799) for the staging schemes of the AJCC manual's 5th and 8th editions, respectively. External validation confirmed robust performance, with a concordance index of 0.738 (95% CI, 0.703 to 0.811) and calibration plots of predicted probability and observed events approaching a 45° diagonal. CONCLUSION: This third-generation clinical calculator for predicting cancer recurrence following curative colectomy successfully incorporates microsatellite genomic phenotype and the presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, resulting in improved discrimination and predictive accuracy. This exemplifies an evolution of a clinical calculator to maintain relevance by incorporating emerging variables as they become validated and accepted in the oncologic community.

It is reported that an increase in aerobic bacteria, a lack of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and immune disorders in the diverted colon are major causes of diversion colitis. However, the precise pathogenesis of this condition remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to examine the microbiota, intestinal SCFAs, and immunoglobulin A (IgA) in the diverted colon. Eight patients underwent operative procedures for colostomies. We assessed the diverted colon using endoscopy and obtained intestinal samples from the diverted colon and oral colon in these patients. We analyzed the microbiota and SCFAs of the intestinal samples. The bacterial communities were investigated using a 16S rRNA gene sequencing method. The microbiota demonstrated a change in the proportion of some species, especially Lactobacillus, which significantly decreased in the diverted colon at the genus level. We also showed that intestinal SCFA values were significantly decreased in the diverted colon. Furthermore, intestinal IgA levels were significantly increased in the diverted colon. This study was the first to show that intestinal SCFAs were significantly decreased and intestinal IgA was significantly increased in the diverted colon. Our data suggest that SCFAs affect the microbiota and may play an immunological role in diversion colitis.

BACKGROUND/AIM: This study aimed to evaluate how NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1) affects survival after hepatectomy in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 88 consecutive patients who underwent hepatectomy for CRLM. Of the 88 patients, preoperative chemotherapy was administered to 30 patients. Immunohistochemistry of the resected specimens was conducted using monoclonal anti-NQO1 antibody. RESULTS: NQO1-positive expression in tumor cells of CRLM was associated with worse overall survival (p=0.026) and was an independent adverse prognostic factor in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio=5.296, p=0.007). Among 30 patients who received preoperative chemotherapy, patients with loss of NQO1 expression in non-neoplastic epithelial cells of the bile ducts (NQO1 polymorphism: n=19) showed significantly better response to preoperative chemotherapy for CRLM (p=0.004). CONCLUSION: NQO1-positive expression in tumor cells of CRLM may be an adverse prognostic factor after hepatectomy for CRLM.

AIM: The role of preoperative frailty assessment in patients with gastrointestinal (GI) disease remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between frailty and postoperative outcomes in patients with GI disease. METHODS: This study investigated 42 patients (aged ≥65 years) with GI disease who underwent abdominal surgery. The frailty status was analyzed using the Japanese version of the Cardiovascular Health Study criteria. We also investigated postoperative outcomes. RESULTS: Of the 42 patients, seven (16.7%) were robust, 24 (57.1%) were prefrail and 11 (26.2%) were frail. Postoperative complications were observed in 45.5% and 63.6% of prefrail and frail patients, respectively, whereas no complications were found in robust patients (P = 0.026). The median hospital stay was 15, 19.5 and 27 days in robust, prefrail and frail patients, respectively (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Preoperative frailty status based on the Japanese version of the Cardiovascular Health Study criteria is associated with postoperative complication incidence and hospital stay extension in patients with GI disease.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the impact of surgery on outcomes in patients with recurrent biliary tract cancer (BTC) and elucidate factors affecting survival after surgery for this disease. METHODS: A single-center study was undertaken in 178 patients with recurrent BTC, of whom 24 underwent surgery for recurrence, 85 received chemotherapy, and 69 received best supportive care. Then, we carried out a multicenter study in 52 patients undergoing surgery for recurrent BTC (gallbladder cancer, 39%; distal cholangiocarcinoma, 27%; perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, 21%; intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 13%). RESULTS: In the single-center study, 3-year survival after recurrence was 53% in patients who underwent surgery, 4% in those who received chemotherapy, and 0% in those who received best supportive care (p < 0.001). Surgery was an independently prognostic factor (p < 0.001). In the multicenter series, the respective 3-year and 5-year survival after surgery for recurrence was 50% and 29% in the 52 patients. Initial site of recurrence was the only independent prognostic factor (p = 0.019). Five-year survival after surgery for recurrence in patients with single distant, multifocal distant, and locoregional recurrence was 51%, 0%, and 0%, respectively (p = 0.002). Sites of single distant recurrence included the liver (n = 13, 54%), distant lymph nodes (all from gallbladder cancer, n = 7, 29%), lung (n = 2, 9%), peritoneum (n = 1, 4%), and abdominal wall (n = 1, 4%). CONCLUSION: Surgery may be an effective option for patients with less aggressive tumor biology characterized by single distant recurrence in recurrent BTC.

Some bacteria are symbiotic in tumor tissues, and metabolites of several bacterial species have been found to cause DNA damage. However, to date, the association between bacteria and host genetic alterations in colorectal cancer (CRC) has not been fully investigated. We evaluated the association between the intra-tumor microbiome and host genetic alterations in 29 Japanese CRC patients. The tumor and non-tumor tissues were extracted from the patients, and 16S rRNA genes were sequenced for each sample. We identified enriched bacteria in tumor and non-tumor tissues. Some bacteria, such as Fusobacterium, which is already known to be enriched in CRC, were found to be enriched in tumor tissues. Interestingly, Bacteroides, which is also known to be enriched in CRC, was enriched in non-tumor tissues. Furthermore, it was shown that certain bacteria that often coexist within tumor tissue were enriched in the presence of a mutated gene or signal pathway with mutated genes in the host cells. Fusobacterium was associated with many mutated genes, as well as cell cycle-related pathways including mutated genes. In addition, the patients with a high abundance of Campylobacter were suggested to be associated with mutational signature 3 indicating failure of double-strand DNA break repairs. These results suggest that CRC development may be partly caused by DNA damage caused by substances released by bacterial infection. Taken together, the identification of distinct gut microbiome patterns and their host specific genetic alterations might facilitate targeted interventions, such as modulation of the microbiome in addition to anticancer agents or immunotherapy.

The patient was a 63-year-old woman with diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Abdominal CT showed pancreatic head tumor and paraaortic lymph node metastasis. We performed chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine. After 5 courses of chemotherapy, the tumor reduced in size. Pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was performed. Fourteen months after surgery, umbilical metastasis(Sister Mary Joseph's nodule: SMJN)was found in the umbilicus near the abdominal incisional hernia. There was no evidence of metastasis except in the umbilicus, we performed the umbilical tumor resection and abdominal incisional hernia repair. Pathological diagnosis was pancreatic cancer metastasis. Although following chemotherapy, multiple skin metastases was found in the lower abdomen 3 months after umbilical resection. We performed skin metastases resection to relieve pain and symptoms of bleeding. But she died 29 months after the initial therapy(7 months after umbilical resection).

A 73-year-old man presented with anemia, and gastroscopy showed a nonpigmented tumor in the esophagogastric junction. The result of the tumor biopsy initially suspected poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. However, additional immunohistochemical examination revealed malignant melanoma. The final diagnosis was amelanotic malignant melanoma of the esophagogastric junction with adrenal and spinal metastasis. Although immunotherapy was performed, the patient died 132 days after diagnosis.

A 64-year-old man with liver dysfunction was given a diagnosis of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(Bismuth type Ⅳ). The tumor was predominantly right-sided and invaded to the bifurcation of the right and left portal veins. After confirming sufficient liver functional reserve and future liver remnant, the patient underwent extended right hepatectomy, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and portal vein resection and reconstruction. Intraoperative examination of frozen sections revealed the presence of residual invasive carcinoma on both the hepatic and duodenal sides of the ductal resection margins. However, we did not perform pancreaticoduodenectomy or additional resection of the margin-positive proximal bile duct considering the curability and invasiveness of these procedures. He received postoperative chemotherapy with biweekly gemcitabine plus cisplatin for 1 year, followed by gemcitabine monotherapy for 1 year, and S-1 monotherapy has been performed since then. He remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 63 months after surgery.

BACKGROUND: Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT), a mesenchymal fibroblastic tumor with a hypervascular nature, rarely develops in the pelvis. Resection of a giant SFT occupying the pelvic cavity poses an increased risk of developing massive hemorrhage during resection, although surgical resection is the most effective treatment method for this tumor to achieve a potential cure. SFT rarely develops with Doege-Potter syndrome, which is known as a paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia (NICTH) secondary to SFT that secretes insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II). We present a case of a giant pelvic SFT with Doege-Potter syndrome, which was successfully treated with transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) followed by surgical resection. CASE PRESENTATION: A 46-year-old woman presented with a disorder of consciousness due to refractory hypoglycemia. Images of the pelvis showed a giant and heterogeneously hypervascular mass displacing and compressing the rectum. Endocrinological evaluation revealed low serum levels of insulin and C-peptide consistent with NICTH. Angiography identified both the inferior mesenteric artery and the bilateral internal iliac artery as the main feeders of the tumor. To avoid intraoperative massive bleeding, super-selective TAE was performed for the tumor 2 days prior to surgery. Hypoglycemia disappeared after TAE. The tumor was resected completely, with no massive hemorrhage during resection. Histologically, it was diagnosed as IGF-II-secreting SFT. Partial necrosis of the rectum in the specimen was observed due to TAE. The patient was followed up for 2 years and no evidence of disease has been reported. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative angiography followed by TAE is an exceedingly helpful method to reduce intraoperative hemorrhage when planning to resect SFT occupying the pelvic cavity. Complications related to ischemia should be kept in mind after TAE, which needs to be planned within 1 or 2 days before surgery. TAE for tumors may be an option in addition to medical and surgical treatment for persistent hypoglycemia in Doege-Potter syndrome.

Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), which represent host adaptive response to the tumor, were first identified at scanning magnification to select areas with the highest counts on hematoxylin and eosin slides, quantitated per high-power field (HPF), and analyzed for association with recurrence-free survival (RFS) in 848 patients. Highest TIL in a single HPF was analyzed as a continuous and categorical variable, and optimal cutoff analysis was performed to predict RFS. Highest TIL count in a single HPF ranged from 0 to 45, and the optimal cutoff for TIL high vs TIL low was determined to be ≥ 3 vs < 3 with a concordance probability estimate of 0.74. In the entire cohort, 5-year RFS was 90.2% (95% CI = 83.7-94.2) in TIL high compared to 78.9% (95% CI = 74.1-82.9) in TIL low (log rank P < .0001). TIL remained significant in the mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR) cohort where 5-year RFS was 94.6% (95% CI = 88.3-97.5) in TIL high compared to 77.9% (95% CI = 69.2-84.4) in TIL low (P = .008). On multivariable analysis, TIL and AJCC Stage were independently associated with RFS in the pMMR cohort. Qualitatively in the pMMR cohort, RFS in Stage II TIL high patients was similar to that in Stage I patients and RFS in Stage III TIL high was similar to that in Stage II TIL low patients. Assessment of TIL in a single HPF using standard H&E slides provides important prognostic information independent of MMR status and AJCC stage.

PURPOSE: The 9th Japanese Classification of Colorectal Cancer (9th JSCCR) has two main differences from the TNM classification (8th AJCC): first, main or lateral lymph node metastasis is classified as jN3; second, tumor nodules (ND) are treated as lymph node metastasis. In this study, we verified the 9th JSCCR for rectal cancer, focusing on the differences with the 8th AJCC. METHODS: This retrospective analysis involved 212 patients with stage I-III rectal cancer. ND was evaluated using whole-mount sections. We evaluated the relapse-free survival of each staging system, and compared the prognostic significance of the different staging systems using the Akaike information criterion (AIC) and Harrell's concordance index (c-index). RESULTS: Main or lateral lymph node metastasis was detected in nine of 212 (4%) patients. ND was detected in 79 of 212 (37%) patients. The best risk stratification power was observed in the 9th JSCCR (AIC, 759; c-index, 0.708) compared with the 7th JSCCR (AIC, 771; c-index, 0.681), 8th JSCCR (AIC, 768; c-index, 0.696), and the 8th AJCC (AIC, 766; c-index, 0.691). CONCLUSIONS: The 9th JSCCR, which includes the concepts of jN3 and ND, is useful for the risk stratification of rectal cancer, and the contributes to precise decision-making for follow-up management and adjuvant therapy.

BACKGROUND: The 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM staging system provided a specific 'ypTNM' stage grouping for patients with esophageal cancer. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the clinical utility of the AJCC 8th edition ypTNM stage grouping for patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). METHODS: We enrolled 152 patients with ESCC who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant cisplatin plus 5-fluorouracil (CF) therapy between June 2005 and December 2011. ypStage was evaluated according to the AJCC 7th and 8th editions. Predictive performance for disease-specific survival (DSS) and overall survival (OS) was compared between both editions. The prognostic significance of ypTNM stage grouping was evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: Revision of the AJCC 7th edition to the 8th edition was associated with a change in ypStage in 96 patients (63.2%). The AJCC 8th edition revealed a better predictive performance than the 7th edition in terms of DSS (Akaike's information criterion [AIC] 499 vs. 513; Bayesian information criterion [BIC] 505 versus 519; concordance index [C-index] 0.725 versus 0.679) and OS (AIC 662 vs. 674; BIC 669 vs. 681; C-index 0.662 vs. 0.622). On univariate and multivariate analyses, ypStage in the 8th edition was an independent prognostic factor for both DSS and OS. CONCLUSIONS: ypTNM stage grouping in the AJCC 8th edition provided a better predictive performance for DSS and OS than that in the 7th edition. ypStage in the 8th edition was the most reliable prognostic factor for ESCC patients who underwent surgery after neoadjuvant CF therapy.

胆嚢癌根治手術の際の至適リンパ節郭清範囲に関して、文献をレビューすることで考察した。本邦、AJCC、UICCのすべての規約において、肝十二指腸間膜内および総肝動脈幹リンパ節は領域リンパ節に含まれている。しかし、本邦の規約のみ上膵頭後部リンパ節が、UICCの規約のみ腹腔動脈周囲および上腸間膜動脈リンパ節が領域リンパ節に含まれていることが規約間の相違点である。転移頻度と切除成績の両者の観点から、上膵頭後部リンパ節は領域リンパ節として取り扱うのが妥当である。一方、腹腔動脈周囲および上腸間膜動脈リンパ節は、少数の転移陽性症例の検討が存在するにすぎず、現時点では、領域リンパ節とすることは推奨できない。進行胆嚢癌において、腫瘍学的に根治をめざして郭清するべきリンパ節の至適範囲は、本邦の胆道癌取扱い規約第6版の定める領域リンパ節とすることが妥当である。(著者抄録)

BACKGROUND: To assess the potential of the ultrasonographic sliding lung sign to detect severe intrathoracic adhesions before surgery. METHODS: This was a prospective, single-center, observational study including all patients aged 20-89 years undergoing elective thoracic surgery. Patients with pneumothorax, pyothorax, hemothorax, chylothorax, and hydrothorax were excluded. We recorded the ultrasound sliding lung sign, surgical characteristics, and follow-up parameters: past medical history, respiratory function, chest X-ray findings, and computed tomography (CT) findings. Severe intrathoracic adhesion was defined as the need for adhesiolysis requiring more than 30 minutes. RESULTS: A total of 168 patients consented to participate. All 15 patients without the sliding lung sign had hard severe adhesions [specificity 100%, sensitivity 88.2%, positive predictive value (PPV) 100%, negative predictive value (NPV) 98.7%, and area under curve (AUC) 0.94]. There were two false-negative results, both of which were soft adhesions. Although blunting of the costophrenic (CP) angle, CT findings, past medical history, and restrictive lung disease were identified as significant risk factors of severe intrathoracic adhesion, all areas under the curve were low (0.71, 0.71, 0.69, 0.61, respectively). Thoracotomy frequency, intraoperative bleeding, operative time, and postoperative hospitalization were significantly greater in these patients than in those with non-severe adhesions. CONCLUSIONS: The ultrasound sliding lung sign could be used to predict severe intrathoracic adhesions before surgery. Preoperative confirmation of the ultrasound sliding lung sign is important for planning surgical approaches and implementing appropriate safety management.

Here, we report about a woman in her 30s who had peritoneal dissemination and multiple colon cancer with high-frequency microsatellite instability(MSI-H). Her father, paternal grandfather, and maternal grandmother had a history of colorectal cancer treatment. Thus, Lynch syndrome was suspected. We performed R0 resection for peritoneal dissemination and subsequent peritoneal dissemination. A 435-gene panel testing using a next-generation sequencer identified MSH2 and other mutations in the tumor. Hence, we speculated that she could have a germline mutation of MSH2, which causes Lynch syndrome. In the future, if she wishes to receive genetic counseling and undergo germline testing for variants to confirm the diagnosis of Lynch syndrome, we will perform them after receiving informed consent.

Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is clinically and pathologically heterogeneous and responds inadequately to treatment. A small section of patients develop resectable disease, although the relapse rates are high; the benefits of adjuvant capecitabine chemotherapy for BTC are now understood, and gemcitabine-based combination chemotherapy is the first line of therapeutic strategy for BTC; however, alternative therapy for BTC is not known. Genomic profiling can provide detailed information regarding the carcinogenesis, identification, and therapy for BTC. Currently, confirmed restorative targets for BTC are lacking. In this review, we aimed to analyze the preclinical and clinical implications of a spectrum of genomic alterations associated with new potentially remedial targets. We focused on eight draggable genes for BTC, which were described as having evidence of therapeutic impact (evidence level 2A-3B) based on the clinical practice guidance for next-generation sequencing in cancer diagnosis and treatment; these include ERBB2, NTRK1, RNF43, CDK6, CDKN2B, FGFR2, IDH1, and IDH2. Moreover, some of the BTC present microsatellite instability, hypermutation, and germline variants, which we also reviewed. Finally, we discussed the therapeutic options based on the next-generation sequencing findings in BTC. Studies have demonstrated that BTC includes subgroups with individually distinct driver mutations, most of which will be targeted with new treatment plans.

Nearly 50% of primary lung carcinoma patients present with distant metastasis at their first visit. However, gastrointestinal tract (GIT) metastasis is an infrequent impediment. Herein, we report a case of progressive dysphagia and epigastralgia as an initial manifestation of recurrence as gastric metastasis of primary lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) after curative surgery. A 64-year-old man was diagnosed with primary lung SCC of the right lower lobe, and underwent thoracoscopic lower lobectomy. One year after lobectomy, computed tomography (CT) scan showed a gastric fundal mass located in the gastric cardia which measured 5 cm. Endoscopic biopsies and histopathology subsequently confirmed that tumor was SCC. The patient then underwent proximal gastrectomy with resection of the diaphragmatic crus. Following surgery, histopathological examination revealed gastric metastasis from primary lung SCC. KEY POINTS: Gastric metastasis of primary lung carcinoma is one of the rarest phenomena. Gastrointestinal symptoms should raise suspicion of the presence of advanced metastatic disease with poor prognosis.

Right-sided colorectal cancer (RCRC) demonstrates worse survival outcome compared with left-sided CRC (LCRC). Recently, the importance of RNF43 mutation and BRAF V600E mutation has been reported in the serrated neoplasia pathway, which is one of the precancerous lesions in RCRC. It was hypothesized that the clinical significance of RNF43 mutation differs according to primary tumor sidedness. To test this hypothesis, the clinicopathological characteristics and survival outcome of patients with RNF43 mutation in RCRC and LCRC were investigated. Stage I-IV CRC patients (n=201) were analyzed. Genetic alterations including RNF43 using a 415-gene panel were investigated. Clinicopathological characteristics between RNF43 wild-type and RNF43 mutant-type were analyzed. Moreover, RNF43 mutant-type was classified according to primary tumor sidedness, i.e., right-sided RNF43 mutant-type or left-sided RNF43 mutant-type, and the clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups were compared. RNF43 mutational prevalence, spectrum and frequency between our cohort and TCGA samples were compared. RNF43 mutation was observed in 27 out of 201 patients (13%). Multivariate analysis revealed that age (≥65), absence of venous invasion, and BRAF V600E mutation were independently associated with RNF43 mutation. Among the 27 patients with RNF43 mutation, 12 patients were right-sided RNF43 mutant-type and 15 left-sided RNF43 mutant-type. Right-sided RNF43 mutant-type was significantly associated with histopathological grade 3, presence of lymphatic invasion, APC wild, BRAF V600E mutation, microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H), and RNF43 nonsense/frameshift mutation compared with left-sided RNF43 mutant-type. Similarly, RNF43 nonsense/frameshift mutations were more frequently observed in RCRC compared with LCRC in the TCGA cohort (P=0.042). Right-sided RNF43 mutant-type exhibited significantly worse overall survival than RNF43 wild-type and left-sided RNF43 mutant-type (P=0.001 and P=0.023, respectively) in stage IV disease. RNF43 mutation may be a distinct molecular subtype which is associated with aggressive tumor biology along with BRAF V600E mutation in RCRC.

BACKGROUND: Several tape fixations for chest tube were proposed, although none have a clear scientific basis. We performed a multicenter survey study to investigate the fixation of chest tubes using an available adhesive tape. We evaluated the strength of tape fixation and the effect of the skin coating material used on the fixation strength. METHODS: A multi-center questionnaire survey was administered in hospitals with a thoracic surgery division. The net promoter score (NPS) was used to measure the medical staff's satisfaction with an adhesive tape fixation. Fixing strength was calculated as follows: a chest tube was fixed using each taping method to a polyethylene plate and was pulled out in the long axis direction. While pulling out, the maximum resistance force [Newton (N)] and total resistance force [Joule (J)] were measured to calculate the fixing strength. RESULTS: The doctors' NPS showed no significant difference between handmade tape fixation and Quickfix {7 [5-8] vs. 10 [5-10] points, P=0.34}. The nurses' NPS showed no significant difference between handmade tape fixation and Quickfix {5 [5-8] vs. 5 [5-7] points, P=0.72}. The average maximum resistance force was the highest for Quickfix (1.36 J, 65.4 N) and a type of handmade fixation (three sheets stuck with foundation tape plus Y-shape slit plus Ω-shape tape; 1.61 J and 54.0 N). The fixation strength of Quickfix did not decrease with a skin coating agent (from 1.24 to 1.11 J and 63.0 to 66.6 N), although that of a handmade tape fixation decreased (from 1.49 to 0.90 J, 52.6 to 38.1 N). CONCLUSIONS: Quickfix provided secure fixation, regardless of the tube size or skin coating. Quickfix may be the best for standardized fixation because it is not only a stronger agent but is safe, simple, inexpensive, reliable, and can be used successfully by anyone.

Introduction: There are no specific standards for the timing of surgery to treat ulcerative colitis, so reaching a decision on timing is often difficult. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the timing of surgery from the patients' perspective. Methods: From among 203 patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis to treat ulcerative colitis at our hospital from 1985 to 2013, we mailed a questionnaire to 101 of those who are currently attending periodic follow-up at our hospital. Results: We analyzed 72 valid responses (71.2%). Overall, 65 patients (90.3%) responded that they were happy that they underwent surgery, 38 patients (52.8%) responded that the timing of surgery was appropriate, and 32 patients (44.4%) responded that they would have preferred to have had surgery earlier. The group of patients who would have preferred to have had surgery earlier included 23 patients (71.9%) who had undergone emergency surgery; the incidence of emergency surgery was significantly higher than in the group of 13 patients (34.2%) who had responded that the timing of surgery was appropriate (p = 0.002). Scores on the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF36), which reflect postoperative quality of life, were maintained at the same level as the Japanese standard values in our Japanese patients. Conclusion: The degree of satisfaction of patients who underwent surgery for ulcerative colitis was favorable, although it is important to consider surgery at an earlier stage in patients who may need emergency surgery.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common and clinically important diseases worldwide. The traditional Laeuren classification divides gastric cancer into two histopathological subtypes: diffuse and intestinal. Recent cancer genomics research has led to the development of a new classification based on molecular characteristics. The newly defined genomically stable (GS) subtype shares many cases with the histopathologically diffuse type. In this study, we performed genetic profiling of recurrently and significantly mutated genes in diffuse type and GS subtype tumors. We observed significantly different genetic characteristics, although the two subtypes overlapped in many cases. In addition, based on the profiles of the significantly mutated genes, we identified molecular functions and mutational signatures characteristic of each subtype. These results will advance the clinical application of the diffuse type and GS subtype gastric cancer in precision medicine for treating gastric cancer.

A 78-year-old woman was endoscopically followed up for benign melanocytosis in the middle thoracic esophagus that was detected 3 years prior. She presented with chest tightness, and an endoscopic examination revealed a protruding tumor at the melanotic lesion. She was histologically diagnosedwith an esophageal primary malignant melanoma. Computedtomography showedno metastatic lesions. She underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy with 2-fieldlymphad enectomy. Immunotherapy with nivolumab is ongoing for liver metastasis, which developed1 year and6 months after esophagectomy. Careful follow-up for esophageal melanocytosis is important for early diagnosis of esophageal primary malignant melanoma.

A 66-year-old man with middle thoracic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis visited our hospital. He underwent 3 courses of preoperative chemotherapy with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-FU(DCF)with a clinically-determined partial response. Minimally-invasive esophagectomy with 3-fieldlymphad enectomy was subsequently performed. Histopathologic examination revealedno viable tumor cells in the resectedesophagus andsupraclavicular lymph node. DCF is a promising preoperative chemotherapy regimen for locally advanced esophageal cancer because of its higher complete response rate comparedto that for cisplatin plus 5-FU.

A 77-year-old woman presented with peritoneal metastases from a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor(p-NET). At the age of 56 years, she underwent distal pancreatectomy for p-NET, which was pathologically diagnosed as G2. She underwent right hemihepatectomy for liver metastasis(S6)from the p-NET 10 years post-pancreatectomy. Eight years post-hepatectomy, radiofrequency ablation(RFA)was attempted for liver metastasis(S4)from the p-NET. However, RFA was not completed because of hematoma development along the needle tract of RFA. She underwent partial hepatectomy for this lesion 6 months post-RFA. Two years post-RFA, localized peritoneal metastases on the right diaphragm were detected. She underwent en bloc tumor resection with partial resection of the diaphragm. She remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 2 years post-resection of the peritoneal metastases from the p-NET.

A 37-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for the treatment of familial adenomatous polyposis and rectal carcinoma. He underwent total colectomy with ileoanal anastomosis(pT3N1M0, pStage Ⅲa)followed by adjuvant therapy with S-1. Three months after primary surgery, CT and MRIrevealed liver metastases(S5, S6). Laparoscopic partial hepatectomy was performed. Two years after primary surgery, new liver metastases(S2, S8)were found and we performed open partial hepatectomy and administered mFOLFOX6. Three years and 5 months after primary surgery, right lung metastases(S6, S9) were detected and the patient underwent a thoracoscopic-assisted right lung wedge resection. Repeated resection of metastases might have contributed to the long-survival in our case.

BACKGROUND: The Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK) colon cancer recurrence nomogram is a risk calculator that provides patients and clinicians with individualized prediction of recurrence following curative resection of colon cancer. Although validated on multiple separate cohorts, the nomogram requires periodic updating as patient care changes over time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nomogram's accuracy in a contemporary cohort and modify the tool to reflect improvements in outcome related to advances in colon cancer therapy. METHODS: A contemporary patient cohort was compiled, including consecutive colon cancer patients undergoing curative resection for stage I-III colon adenocarcinoma at MSK from 2007 to 2014. The nomogram's predictive accuracy was assessed by concordance index and calibration plots of predicted vs actual freedom from recurrence at 5 years after surgery. RESULTS: Data from a total of 999 eligible patients with complete records were used for validation. Median follow-up among survivors was 37 months. The concordance index was 0.756 (95% confidence interval = 0.707 to 0.805), indicating continued discriminating power, but the calibration plot revealed that the nomogram overestimated recurrence risk. Recalibration of the nomogram by estimating a new baseline freedom-from-recurrence function restored the nomogram's accuracy. CONCLUSION: The updated nomogram retains the original nomogram's variables but includes a lower baseline estimation of recurrence risk, reflecting improvements in outcomes for all stages of colon cancer, likely resulting from advances in imaging and integration of multiple treatment modalities.

An 82-year-old man with a diagnosis ofintraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma(IPMC)underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1. Six months after surgery, he had upper abdominal pain, and CT demonstrated a recurrent intraabdominal tumor located at the surgical incision scar. It was diagnosed as a solitary peritoneal recurrence, and palliative radiation therapy at a dose of 30 Gy was performed for the relief of abdominal pain after administration ofoxycodone. He was free ofpain without pharmacological therapy and received subsequent chemotherapy with nabpaclitaxel plus gemcitabine(GnP). He remains free ofpain and alive without progression ofthe disease 24 months after recurrence. Hypofractionated-accelerated radiotherapy is feasible and results in pain relief for local recurrence of IPMC.

Numerous technical and functional advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have led to the adoption of this technique in conventional clinical practice. Recently, large-scale genomic research and NGS technological innovation have revealed many more details of somatic and germline mutations in solid tumors. This development is allowing for the classification of tumor type sub-categories based on genetic alterations in solid tumors, and based on this information, new drugs and targeted therapies are being administered to patients. This has largely been facilitated by gene panel testing, which allows for a better understanding of the genetic basis for an individual's response to therapy. NGS-based comprehensive gene panel testing is a clinically useful approach to investigate genomic mechanisms, including therapy-related signaling pathways, microsatellite instability, hypermutated phenotypes, and tumor mutation burden. In this review, we describe the concept of precision medicine in solid tumors using NGS-based comprehensive gene panel testing, as well as the importance of quality control of tissue sample handling in routine NGS-based genomic testing, and we discuss issues for the future adoption of this technique in Japan.

A 78-year-old man was admitted with diarrhea. Colonoscopy and computed tomography(CT)revealed rectal cancer with multiple liver metastases. Low anterior resection was performed for local control. After the operation, 5 courses of mFOLFOX6 plus bevacizumab chemotherapy were administered as first-line systemic therapy, but CT showed progressive disease with liver metastases. After the first-line systemic therapy, 2 courses of FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab chemotherapy were performed as second-line systemic therapy, but CT also revealed progressive disease with liver metastases. We retrospectively performed comprehensive genomic sequencing with a 415-gene panel and found that the patient had a hypermutation subtype. Interestingly, the panel also revealed that he had mismatch-repair(MMR)deficiency with MSH2 mutation, which is reported as a possible cause of resistance to 5-fluorouracil in colorectal cancer.

Here, we reported a case of a 39-year-old woman having rectal cancer with multiple liver metastases who underwent staged laparoscopic resection. She was diagnosed with low rectal cancer and multiple liver metastases; thus, she underwent low anterior resection and diverting colostomy. Following the neoadjuvant chemotherapy, she underwent colostomy closure and subsequent hand-assisted laparoscopic partial hepatectomy using the operative site during the colostomy closure. The postoperative course was uneventful, and adjuvant chemotherapy with CapeOX was performed 3 weeks post-surgery. Minimally invasive surgery was performed using hand-assisted laparoscopy.

Background: Colitis-associated cancer (CAC) is the most serious complication of inflammatory bowel disease. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive lipid mediator that is generated by sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) and is known to play an important role in inflammation and cancer progression. Moreover, SphK1 and S1P act as upstream mediators of proinflammatory cytokine interleukin 6 (IL-6) and signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT3). We hypothesized that the expression levels of phosphorylated SphK1 (pSphK1), phosphorylated STAT3 (pSTAT3), and IL-6 are universally higher in CAC patients than in sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC) patients because all of these factors are associated with inflammation. In this study, we determined the expression levels of pSphK1 in patients with sporadic CRC and CAC and clarified the importance of S1P in CAC patients. Materials and methods: We randomly selected 10 sporadic CRC patients and 10 CAC patients who underwent curative resection, and we examined their surgical specimens by immunohistochemistry. We determined the expression levels of pSphK1, pSTAT3, and IL-6 in these samples. Results: We found pSphK1 expression to be more prevalent in CAC patients (P = 0.019) and to have a higher immunohistochemistry score (P = 0.005) than in sporadic CRC patients. However, the expression of pSTAT3 and IL-6 did not differ between the patient groups. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first report comparing pSphK1 expression levels in CAC with those in sporadic CRC. The high levels of pSphK1 expression in CAC suggest an important role of S1P in the disease process of CAC.

BACKGROUND: Recent progress in genomic analysis using next-generation sequencing technology has enabled the comprehensive detection of mutations and tumor mutation burden (TMB) in patients. A high TMB (TMB-H) tumor is defined as one with high somatic mutational rates, which correlates with clinical responses to certain treatments such as immunotherapies. We determined TMB in lung adenocarcinoma and clarified the characteristics of patients with TMB-H in relation to common driver mutations and smoking history. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Genomic aberrations and TMB were determined in Japanese patients with lung adenocarcinoma (n = 100) using next-generation sequencing of 415 known cancer genes. TMB-H was defined as > 20 mutations per megabase (Mb) of sequenced DNA. RESULTS: The median TMB was 13.5 (5-33) mutations/Mb. Ten of 100 (10%) patients showed TMB-H, and the others showed low TMB (TMB-L). Only two of 10 (20%) patients with TMB-H had one of the common driver mutations (ALK and ERBB2 mutation), whereas 57 of 90 (63%) patients with TMB-L had one of the driver mutations, including ALK, EGFR, ERBB2, ROS, RET, and MET (P < 0.05). Notably, no EGFR mutation was observed in patients with TMB-H. Eight of 10 (80%) patients with TMB-H had recent smoking history, whereas only 17 of 90 (19%) patients with TMB-L had recent smoking history (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: We found that TMB-H is associated with smoking history, whereas TMB-L is associated with the common driver mutations in lung adenocarcinoma, which may impact treatment strategies for these patients.

Lymphatic metastasis is known to contribute to worse prognosis of biliary tract cancer (BTC). Recently, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid mediator generated by sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1), has been shown to play an important role in lymphangiogenesis and lymph node metastasis in several types of cancer. However, the role of the lipid mediator in BTC has never been examined. Here we found that S1P is elevated in BTC with the activation of ceramide-synthetic pathways, suggesting that BTC utilizes SPHK1 to promote lymphatic metastasis. We found that S1P, sphingosine and ceramide precursors such as monohexosyl-ceramide and sphingomyelin, but not ceramide, were significantly increased in BTC compared to normal biliary tract tissue using LC-ESI-MS/MS. Utilizing The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort, we demonstrated that S1P in BTC is generated via de novo pathway and exported via ABCC1. Further, we found that SPHK1 expression positively correlated with factors related to lymphatic metastasis in BTC. Finally, immunohistochemical examination revealed that gallbladder cancer with lymph node metastasis had significantly higher expression of phospho-SPHK1 than that without. Taken together, our data suggest that S1P generated in BTC contributes to lymphatic metastasis.

BACKGROUND: Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is a major histological subtype of lung cancer. In this study, we investigated genomic alterations in LSCC and evaluated the clinical implications of mutation burden (MB) in LSCC. METHODS: Genomic alterations were determined in Japanese patients with LSCC (N = 67) using next-generation sequencing of 415 known cancer genes. MB was defined as the number of non-synonymous mutations per 1 Mbp. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) protein expression in cancer cells was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS: TP53 gene mutations were the most common alteration (n = 51/67, 76.1%), followed by gene alterations in cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2B (CDKN2B; 35.8%), CDKN2A (31.3%), phosphatase and tensin homolog (30.0%), and sex-determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2, 28.3%). Histological differentiation was significantly poorer in tumors with high MB (greater than or equal to the median MB) compared with that in tumors with low MB (less than the median MB; p = 0.0446). The high MB group had more tumors located in the upper or middle lobe than tumors located in the lower lobe (p = 0.0019). Moreover, cancers in the upper or middle lobes had significantly higher MB than cancers in the lower lobes (p = 0.0005), and tended to show higher PD-L1 protein expression (p = 0.0573). SOX2 and tyrosine kinase non-receptor 2 amplifications were associated with high MB (p = 0.0065 and p = 0.0010, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The MB level differed according to the tumor location in LSCC, suggesting that the location of cancer development may influence the genomic background of the tumor.

This study aimed to compare common histologic markers at the invasive front of colon adenocarcinoma in terms of prognostic accuracy and interobserver agreement. Consecutive patients who underwent curative resection for stages I to III colon adenocarcinoma at a single institution in 2007 to 2014 were identified. Poorly differentiated clusters (PDCs), tumor budding, perineural invasion, desmoplastic reaction, and Crohn-like lymphoid reaction at the invasive front, as well as the World Health Organization (WHO) grade of the entire tumor, were analyzed. Prognostic accuracies for recurrence-free survival (RFS) were compared, and interobserver agreement among 3 pathologists was assessed. The study cohort consisted of 851 patients. Although all the histologic markers except WHO grade were significantly associated with RFS (PDCs, tumor budding, perineural invasion, and desmoplastic reaction: P<0.001; Crohn-like lymphoid reaction: P=0.021), PDCs (grade 1 [G1]: n=581; G2: n=145; G3: n=125) showed the largest separation of 3-year RFS in the full cohort (G1: 94.1%; G3: 63.7%; hazard ratio [HR], 6.39; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.11-9.95; P<0.001), stage II patients (G1: 94.0%; G3: 67.3%; HR, 4.15; 95% CI, 1.96-8.82; P<0.001), and stage III patients (G1: 89.0%; G3: 59.4%; HR, 4.50; 95% CI, 2.41-8.41; P<0.001). PDCs had the highest prognostic accuracy for RFS with the concordance probability estimate of 0.642, whereas WHO grade had the lowest. Interobserver agreement was the highest for PDCs, with a weighted kappa of 0.824. The risk of recurrence over time peaked earlier for worse PDCs grade. Our findings indicate that PDCs are the best invasive-front histologic marker in terms of prognostic accuracy and interobserver agreement. PDCs may replace WHO grade as a prognostic indicator.

IMPORTANCE: Guidelines recommend measuring preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in patients with colon cancer. Although persistently elevated CEA after surgery has been associated with increased risk for metastatic disease, prognostic significance of elevated preoperative CEA that normalized after resection is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether patients with elevated preoperative CEA that normalizes after colon cancer resection have a higher risk of recurrence than patients with normal preoperative CEA. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This retrospective cohort analysis was conducted at a comprehensive cancer center. Consecutive patients with colon cancer who underwent curative resection for stage I to III colon adenocarcinoma at the center from January 2007 to December 2014 were identified. EXPOSURES: Patients were grouped into 3 cohorts: normal preoperative CEA, elevated preoperative but normalized postoperative CEA, and elevated preoperative and postoperative CEA. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Three-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) and hazard function curves over time were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 1027 patients (461 [50.4%] male; median [IQR] age, 64 [53-75] years) were identified. Patients with normal preoperative CEA had 7.4% higher 3-year RFS (n = 715 [89.7%]) than the combined cohorts with elevated preoperative CEA (n = 312 [82.3%]) (P = .01) but had RFS similar to that of patients with normalized postoperative CEA (n = 142 [87.9%]) (P = .86). Patients with elevated postoperative CEA had 14.9% lower RFS (n = 57 [74.5%]) than the combined cohorts with normal postoperative CEA (n = 857 [89.4%]) (P = .001). The hazard function of recurrence for elevated postoperative CEA peaked earlier than for the other cohorts. Multivariate analyses confirmed that elevated postoperative CEA (hazard ratio [HR], 2.0; 95% CI, 1.1-3.5), but not normalized postoperative CEA (HR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.45-1.30), was independently associated with shorter RFS. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Elevated preoperative CEA that normalizes after resection is not an indicator of poor prognosis. Routine measurement of postoperative, rather than preoperative, CEA is warranted. Patients with elevated postoperative CEA are at increased risk for recurrence, especially within the first 12 months after surgery.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract. However, rectal GIST is rare, the incident rate of it is approximately 5% of all GISTs. Rectal GIST symptoms generally include bleeding and/or pain and occasionally, urinary symptoms. Immunohistochemical evaluation finds that most rectal GIST tumors are CD117 (KIT) positive, and are sometimes CD34, platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFRA), smooth muscle actin, S-100, or vimentin positive. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) classifies rectal GIST as very-low risk, low risk, intermediate risk, or high risk, and the frequencies have been estimated as 0-23.8% for very-low risk, 0-45% for low risk, 0-34% for intermediate risk, and 21-100% for high risk tumors. The first-line treatment for localized GIST is curative resection, but is difficult in rectal GIST because of anatomical characteristics such as the deep, narrow pelvis and proximity to the sphincter muscle or other organs. Several studies noted the efficacy of the minimally invasive surgery, such as trans-anal, trans-sacral, trans-vaginal resection, or laparoscopic resection. The appropriate surgical procedure should be selected depending on the case. Imatinib mesylate (IM) is indicated as first-line treatment of metastatic or unresectable GIST, and clinical outcomes are correlated with KIT mutation genotype. However, the KIT mutation genotypes in rectal GIST are not well known. In this review, as in other GISTs, a large proportion (59-100%) of rectal GISTs carry exon 11 mutations. Although curative resection is indicated for localized rectal GIST, a high rate of local recurrence is a problem. Multimodal therapy including perioperative IM may improve postoperative outcomes, contributing to anus-preserving surgery. Moreover, KIT mutation analysis before IM treatment is important. This review summarizes current treatment strategies for rectal GIST.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has enabled comprehensive detection of genomic alterations in lung cancer. Ethnic differences may play a critical role in the efficacy of targeted therapies. The aim of this study was to identify and compare genomic alterations of lung adenocarcinoma between Japanese patients and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), which majority of patients are from the US. We also aimed to examine prognostic impact of additional genomic alterations in patients harboring EGFR mutations. Genomic alterations were determined in Japanese patients with lung adenocarcinoma (N = 100) using NGS-based sequencing of 415 known cancer genes, and correlated with clinical outcome. EGFR active mutations, i.e., those involving exon 19 deletion or an L858R point mutation, were seen in 43% of patients. Some differences in driver gene mutation prevalence were observed between the Japanese cohort described in the present study and the TCGA. Japanese cohort had significantly more genomic alterations in cell cycle pathway, i.e., CDKN2B and RB1 than TCGA. Concurrent mutations, in genes such as CDKN2B or RB1, were associated with worse clinical outcome in patients with EGFR active mutations. Our data support the utility of comprehensive sequencing to detect concurrent genomic variations that may affect clinical outcomes in this disease.

PURPOSE: It has been suggested that the biological characteristics of breast cancer may differ among different geographic or ethnic populations. Indeed, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), the most lethal breast cancer subgroup, has been reported to show a higher incidence in Japan than in the US. However, most genomic studies of these tumors are from Western countries and the genomic landscape of TNBC in an Asian population has not been thoroughly investigated. Here, we sought to elucidate the geographic and ethnic diversity of breast cancer by examining actionable driver alterations in TNBC tumors from Japanese patients and comparing them with The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, which gather data primarily from non-Asian patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed comprehensive genomic profiling, including an analysis of 435 known cancer genes on Japanese TNBC patients (N=53) and compared the results to independent data obtained from TCGA (N=123). RESULTS: Driver alterations were identified in 51 out of 53 Japanese patients (96%). Although the overall alteration spectrum of Japanese patients was similar to that of the TCGA, we found significant differences in the frequencies of alterations in MYC and PTK2. We identified three patients (5.7%) with a high tumor mutation burden, although no microsatellite instability was observed in any of the Japanese patients. Importantly, pathway analysis revealed that 66.0% (35/53) of Japanese patients, as well as 66.7% (82/123) of the TCGA cohort, had alterations in at least one actionable gene targetable by an FDA-approved drug. CONCLUSION: Our study identified actionable driver alterations in Japanese patients with TNBC, revealing new opportunities for targeted therapies in Asian patients.

INTRODUCTION: Precision medicine is only possible in oncology practice if targetable genes in fragmented DNA, such as DNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, can be sequenced using next generation sequencing (NGS). The aim of this study was to examine the quality and quantity of DNA from FFPE cancerous tissue samples from surgically resected and biopsy specimens. METHODS: DNA was extracted from unstained FFPE tissue sections prepared from surgically resected specimens of breast, colorectal and gastric cancer, and biopsy specimens of breast cancer. A total quantity of DNA ≥60 ng from a sample was considered adequate for NGS. The DNA quality was assessed by Q-ratios, with a Q-ratio >0.1 considered sufficient for NGS. RESULTS: The Q-ratio for DNA from FFPE tissue processed with neutral-buffered formalin was significantly better than that processed with unbuffered formalin. All Q-ratios for DNA from breast, colorectal and gastric cancer samples indicated DNA levels sufficient for NGS. DNA extracted from gastric cancer FFPE samples prepared within the last 7 years is suitable for NGS analysis, whereas those older than 7 years may not be suitable. Our data suggested that adequate amounts of DNA can be extracted from FFPE samples, not only of surgically resected tissue but also of biopsy specimens. CONCLUSIONS: The type of formalin used for fixation and the time since FFPE sample preparation affect DNA quality. Sufficient amounts of DNA can be extracted from FFPE samples of both surgically resected and biopsy tissue, thus expanding the potential diagnostic uses of NGS in a clinical setting.

The patient was a 73-year-old man with ascending colon cancer and synchronous liver metastases. A right hemicolectomy with a lymph node dissection was performed for the primary lesion. The resected specimen revealed a KRAS codon 12 mutation. After 6 courses of chemotherapy with capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and bevacizumab(Bv), we performed a partial hepatectomy and resection of the peritoneal dissemination. A computed tomography(CT)scan 5 months later revealed the recurrence of the liver metastases. After 8 courses of chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, Leucovorin, irinotecan, and Bv, we performed a partial hepatectomy. CT scan after 13 months revealed a recurrence in the peritoneal dissemination in the Douglas pouch and the right subphrenic space; therefore, we performed a low anterior resection and resection of the peritoneal dissemination with curative intent. CT scan after 19 months revealed a recurrence in the right subphrenic dissemination, a lung metastasis, and pleural dissemination. Chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and Bv was administered for 2 years and 5 months. After 5 years and 9 months of the primary operation, the patient is alive. Recently, we have focused on the mechanism of multidrug resistance through NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase-1(NQO1)overexpression, which can be used to determine the role of an enzyme in sensitivity to toxicity and carcinogenesis. In this case, the pathological examination of the resected specimen revealed NQO1 negative expression. In conclusion, NQO1 may play a significant role in chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer patients.

Objectives: Anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy has been found to be more effective against left-sided colorectal cancer (LCRC) than right-sided colorectal cancer (RCRC). We hypothesized that RCRC is more likely to harbor genetic alterations associated with resistance to anti-EGFR therapy and tested this using comprehensive genomic sequencing.
Materials and methods: A total of 201 patients with either primary RCRC or LCRC were analyzed. We investigated tumors for genetic alterations using a 415-gene panel, which included alterations associated with resistance to anti-EGFR therapy: TK receptors (ERBB2, MET, EGFR, FGFR1, and PDGFRA), RAS pathway (KRAS, NRAS, HRAS, BRAF, and MAPK2K1), and PI3K pathway (PTEN and PIK3CA). Patients whose tumors had no alterations in these 12 genes, theoretically considered to respond to anti-EGFR therapy, were defined as "all wild-type", while remaining patients were defined as "mutant-type".
Results: Fifty-six patients (28%) and 145 patients (72%) had RCRC and LCRC, respectively. Regarding genetic alterations associated with anti-EGFR therapy, only 6 of 56 patients (11%) with RCRC were "all wild-type" compared with 41 of 145 patients (28%) with LCRC (P = 0.009). Among the 49 patients who received anti-EGFR therapy, RCRC showed significantly worse progression-free survival (PFS) than LCRC (P = 0.022), and "mutant-type" RCRC showed significantly worse PFS compared with "all wild-type" LCRC (P = 0.004).
Conclusions: RCRC is more likely to harbor genetic alterations associated with resistance to anti-EGFR therapy compared with LCRC. Furthermore, our data shows primary tumor sidedness is a surrogate for the non-random distribution of genetic alterations in CRC.

Background: Intertumoral heterogeneity represents a significant hurdle to identifying optimized targeted therapies in gastric cancer (GC). To realize precision medicine for GC patients, an actionable gene alteration-based molecular classification that directly associates GCs with targeted therapies is needed.& para;& para;Methods: A total of 207 Japanese patients with GC were included in this study. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tum or tissues were obtained from surgical or biopsy specimens and were subjected, to DMA extraction. We generated comprehensive genomic profiling data using a 435-gene panel including 69 actionable genes paired, with US Food and Drug Administration-approved targeted therapies, and the evaluation o f Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and microsatellite instability (MSI) status.& para;& para;Results: Comprehensive genomic sequencing detected at least one alteration o f 435 cancer-related genes in 194 GCs (93.7%) and o f 69 actionable genes in 141 GCs (68.1%). We classified the 207 GCs into four The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) subtypes using the genomic profiling data; EBV (N = 9), MSI (N = 17), chromosomal instability (N = 119), and genomicaliy stable subtype (N = 62). Actionable gene alterations were not specific and were widely observed throughout all TCGA subtypes. To discover a novel classification which more precisely selects candidates for targeted therapies, 207 GCs were classified using hypermutated. phenotype and the mutation profile of 69 actionable genes. We identified a hypermutated group (N = 32), while the others (N = 175) were sub-divided into six dusters including five with actionable gene alterations: ERBB2 (N = 25), CDKN2A, and CDKN2B (N = 10), KRAS (N = 10), BRCA2 (N = 9), and ATM duster (N = 12). The clinical utility of this classification was demonstrated by a case of unresectable GC. with a remarkable response to anti-HER2 therapy in the ERBB2 duster.& para;& para;Conclusions: This actionable gene-based classification creates a framework for further studies for realizing precision medicine in GC.

HER2-targeted therapy is considered effective for KRAS codon 12/13 wild-type, HER2-positive metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC). In general, HER2 status is determined by the use of immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Comprehensive genomic sequencing (CGS) enables the detection of gene mutations and copy number alterations including KRAS mutation and HER2 amplification; however, little is known about the utility of CGS for detecting HER2-positive CRC. To assess its utility, we retrospectively investigated 201 patients with stage I-IV CRC. The HER2 status of the primary site was assessed using IHC and FISH, and HER2 amplification of the primary site was also assessed using CGS, and the findings of these approaches were compared in each patient. CGS successfully detected alterations in 415 genes including KRAS codon 12/13 mutation and HER2 amplification. Fifty-nine (29%) patients had a KRAS codon 12/13 mutation. Ten (5%) patients were diagnosed as HER2 positive because of HER2 MC 3+, and the same 10 (5%) patients had HER2 amplification evaluated using CGS. The results of HER2 status and HER2 amplification were completely identical in all 201 patients (P &lt; .001). Nine of the 10 HER2-positive patients were KRAS 12/13 wild-type and were considered possible candidates for HER2-targeted therapy. CGS has the same utility as IHC and FISH for detecting HER2-positive patients who are candidates for HER2-targeted therapy, and facilitates precision medicine and tailor-made treatment.

A ciliated muconodular papillary tumor (CMPT) has been reported to be a low-grade malignant tumor or benign tumor, consisting of ciliated columnar cells and goblet cells with basaloid cell proliferation, occur in the peripheral lung. We present a case of CMPT in this report. A 42-year-old male was referred to our department due to a nodule detected in the peripheral left lower lobe of lung. The nodule was resected via wedge resection based on a suspected diagnosis of carcinoma. Intraoperative analysis of the frozen sections was suggestive of mucinous adenocarcinoma. A left lower lobectomy and mediastinal lymph node dissection were performed. The resected specimen was characterized as a papillary tumor with central fibrosis, proliferating along the alveolar walls, surrounded by mucous lakes, and consisting of ciliated columnar cells and goblet cells. Nuclear atypia was mild, and no mitotic activity was observed. Based on these findings, the tumor was finally diagnosed as CMPT. No recurrence has been noted for 24 months after surgery.
