Abstract

BACKGROUND Genetics of estrogen synthesis and breast cancer risk has been elusive. The 1245A→C missense-encoding polymorphism in HSD3B1, which is common in White populations, is functionally adrenal permissive and increases synthesis of the aromatase substrate androstenedione. We hypothesized that homozygous inheritance of the adrenal-permissive HSD3B1(1245C) is associated with postmenopausal estrogen receptor–positive (ER-positive) breast cancer.METHODS A prospective study of postmenopausal ER-driven breast cancer was done for determination of HSD3B1 and circulating steroids. Validation was performed in 2 other cohorts. Adrenal-permissive genotype frequency was compared between postmenopausal ER-positive breast cancer, the general population, and postmenopausal ER-negative breast cancer.RESULTS Prospective and validation studies had 157 and 538 patients, respectively, for the primary analysis of genotype frequency by ER status in White female breast cancer patients who were postmenopausal at diagnosis. The adrenal-permissive genotype frequency in postmenopausal White women with estrogen-driven breast cancer in the prospective cohort was 17.5% (21/120) compared with 5.4% (2/37) for ER-negative breast cancer (P = 0.108) and 9.6% (429/4451) in the general population (P = 0.0077). Adrenal-permissive genotype frequency for estrogen-driven postmenopausal breast cancer was validated using Cambridge and The Cancer Genome Atlas data sets: 14.4% (56/389) compared with 6.0% (9/149) for ER-negative breast cancer (P = 0.007) and the general population (P = 0.005). Circulating androstenedione concentration was higher with the adrenal-permissive genotype (P = 0.03).CONCLUSION Adrenal-permissive genotype is associated with estrogen-driven postmenopausal breast cancer. These findings link genetic inheritance of endogenous estrogen exposure to estrogen-driven breast cancer.FUNDING National Cancer Institute, NIH (R01CA236780, R01CA172382, and P30-CA008748); and Prostate Cancer Foundation Challenge Award.

Abstract

Background Prospective data on the risk of recurrence among women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer who temporarily discontinue endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy are lacking. Methods We conducted a single-group trial in which we evaluated the temporary interruption of adjuvant endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy in young women with previous breast cancer. Eligible women were 42 years of age or younger; had had stage I, II, or III disease; had received adjuvant endocrine therapy for 18 to 30 months; and desired pregnancy. The primary end point was the number of breast cancer events (defined as local, regional, or distant recurrence of invasive breast cancer or new contralateral invasive breast cancer) during follow-up. The primary analysis was planned to be performed after 1600 patient-years of follow-up. The prespecified safety threshold was the occurrence of 46 breast cancer events during this period. Breast cancer outcomes in this treatment-interruption group were compared with those in an external control cohort consisting of women who would have met the entry criteria for the current trial. Results Among 516 women, the median age was 37 years, the median time from breast cancer diagnosis to enrollment was 29 months, and 93.4% had stage I or II disease. Among 497 women who were followed for pregnancy status, 368 (74.0%) had at least one pregnancy and 317 (63.8%) had at least one live birth. In total, 365 babies were born. At 1638 patient-years of follow-up (median follow-up, 41 months), 44 patients had a breast cancer event, a result that did not exceed the safety threshold. The 3-year incidence of breast cancer events was 8.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.3 to 11.6) in the treatment-interruption group and 9.2% (95% CI, 7.6 to 10.8) in the control cohort. Conclusions Among select women with previous hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer, temporary interruption of endocrine therapy to attempt pregnancy did not confer a greater short-term risk of breast cancer events, including distant recurrence, than that in the external control cohort. Further follow-up is critical to inform longer-term safety. (Funded by ETOP IBCSG Partners Foundation and others; POSITIVE ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT02308085.).

Abstract

The NCCN Guidelines for Survivorship are intended to help healthcare professionals who work with survivors to ensure that the survivors’ complex and varied needs are addressed. The NCCN Guidelines provide screening, evaluation, and treatment recommendations for the consequences of adult-onset cancer and its treatment; recommendations to help promote physical activity, weight management, and immunizations in survivors; and a framework for care coordination. This article summarizes updates to the NCCN Guidelines pertaining to preventive health for cancer survivors, including recommendations about alcohol consumption and vaccinations.

Abstract

Purpose:Metastatic hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer is an important cause of cancer mortality. Endocrine treatment with or without additional targeted therapies has been the mainstay of treatment. This trial was designed to evaluate the combination of fulvestrant plus everolimus versus fulvestrant, everolimus, and anastrozole compared with fulvestrant alone in the first-line treatment of advanced HR-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer.Patients and Methods:This randomized placebo-controlled trial included postmenopausal women with HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer who had received no prior systemic therapy for metastatic disease. Participants were randomized to one of three treatment arms and the primary outcome was progression-free survival (PFS), comparing combinations of fulvestrant and everolimus with or without anastrozole with fulvestrant alone. Circulating tumor cells (CTC), as measured with two different methods, and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) were evaluated serially prior to treatment and the beginning of the second cycle of therapy.Results:Due in part to changes in clinical practice, the study was closed after accruing only 37 participants. There was no evidence that everolimus-containing combination treatment improved PFS or overall survival relative to fulvestrant alone. When modeled continuously, an association was observed of baseline CTC and ctDNA with poorer survival.Conclusions:Although power of the study was limited, the findings were unable to support the routine use of everolimus combination endocrine therapy in the first-line treatment of advanced hormone-sensitive breast cancer. Prognostic impact of baseline ctDNA and copy-number variations in CTC was demonstrated.

Abstract

We present the first measurements of charge-dependent correlations on angular difference variables η 1 − η 2 (pseudorapidity) and ϕ 1 − ϕ 2 (azimuth) for primary charged hadrons with transverse momentum 0.15 ⩽ p t ⩽ 2 GeV / c and | η | ⩽ 1.3 from Au–Au collisions at s N N = 130 GeV . We observe correlation structures not predicted by theory but consistent with evolution of hadron emission geometry with increasing centrality from one-dimensional fragmentation of color strings along the beam direction to an at least two-dimensional hadronization geometry along the beam and azimuth directions of a hadron-opaque bulk medium.

Abstract

Identified mid-rapidity particle spectra of pi(+/-), K+/-, and p((p) over bar) from 200 GeV p + p and d + Au collisions are reported. A time-of-flight detector based on multi-gap resistive plate chamber technology is used for particle identification. The particle-species dependence of the Cronin effect is observed to be significantly smaller than that at lower energies. The ratio of the nuclear modification factor (R-dAu) between protons (p + (p) over bar) and charged hadrons (h) in the transverse momentum range 1.2 < p(T) < 3.0 GeV/c is measured to be 1.19 +/- 0.05(stat) +/- 0.03(syst) in minimum-bias collisions and shows little centrality dependence. The yield ratio of (p + (p) over bar)/h in minimum-bias d + Au collisions is found to be a factor of 2 lower than that in Au + Au collisions, indicating that the Cronin effect alone is not enough to account for the relative baryon enhancement observed in heavy ion collisions at RHIC.

Abstract

Single-particle widths in 209Bi for all particle orbits s1/2, d3/2, d5/2, g7/2, g9/2, i11/2, j15/2 and for the hole orbits p1/2, p3/2, f5/2, f7/2 are deduced from the study of about fifty states in 208Pb with rather pure particle-hole configurations. Relative single-particle widths of the 0+ isobaric analog resonance (IAR) in 208Bi for the orbits p3/2, f5/2, f7/2 are deduced from the 207Pb(p, p′) reaction. The 207Pb(p, p′) and 208Pb(p, p′) reactions via IAR were studied in a scattering chamber experiment of the Max-Planck institute for nuclear physics (Heidelberg, Germany) at scattering angles 40° ≤ Θ ≤ 170°. The semiconductor detectors yielded a resolution of 11–15 keV. Proton energies E p = 14.99, 16.30, 16.45, 16.60, 17.40, 17.47, 17.75 MeV covered the g9/2, j15/2, d5/2, g7/2, and d3/2 IARs in 209Bi, and 11.0 < E p < 11.8 MeV the 0 + IAR in 208Bi. The differential cross sections for nearly 70 levels in 208Pb were determined with an uncertainty of the solid angle of about 2%. Similar measurements of 208Pb(p, p′) with the Q3D magnetic spectrograph of the Maier-Leibnitz-Laboratorium (Garching, Germany) 35–45 years later yielded a resolution of about 3 keV. The uncertainty of the differential cross section was 10–30%. Scattering angles covered 20° ≤ Θ ≤ 115° and Θ = 139°. The nonresonant (p, p′) reaction often dominates at scattering angles Θ ≲ 100°. Therefore, only the combination of the two data sets, i) backward angles, precise solid angles but modest resolution, ii) medium scattering angles and high resolution, allows to determine in an iterative manner both the structure of particle-hole states in 208Pb and the relevant single-particle widths in 209Bi .

Abstract

The STAR Time Projection Chamber was successfully operated during the first RHIC run in 2000. Most of the STAR contributions reported in these proceedings are based on the analysis of data from the TPC. In this article, we show that the performance achieved by the TPC, in terms of track reconstruction, position resolution, and particle identification are well suited for measuring precise and reliable physics observables.

Abstract

This paper provides an analysis of the operation and control of a three-unit module common to many chemical and petrochemical manufacturing operations. A number of control alternatives are evaluated for their ability to control product quality, maintain production capacity, and maintain energy efficiency in the face of several simple disturbances. The study identifies and quantifies several plant-wide control issues which are often overlooked when local unit operations are controlled out of a plant-wide context.

Abstract

We review the most important experimental results from the first three years of nucleus-nucleus collision studies at RHIC, with emphasis on results from the STAR experiment, and we assess their interpretation and comparison to theory. The theory-experiment comparison suggests that central Au+Au collisions at RHIC produce dense, rapidly thermalizing matter characterized by: (1) initial energy densities above the critical values predicted by lattice QCD for establishment of a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP); (2) nearly ideal fluid flow, marked by constituent interactions of very short mean free path, established most probably at a stage preceding hadron formation; and (3) opacity to jets. Many of the observations are consistent with models incorporating QGP formation in the early collision stages, and have not found ready explanation in a hadronic framework. However, the measurements themselves do not yet establish unequivocal evidence for a transition to this new form of matter. The theoretical treatment of the collision evolution, despite impressive successes, invokes a suite of distinct models, degrees of freedom and assumptions of as yet unknown quantitative consequence. We pose a set of important open questions, and suggest additional measurements, at least some of which should be addressed in order to establish a compelling basis to conclude definitively that thermalized, deconfined quark-gluon matter has been produced at RHIC., Comment: 101 pages, 37 figures; revised version to Nucl.

Abstract

A technique to evaluate distillation-column control-system energy balance disturbance sensitivity and rejection ability using a steady-state column simulator is discussed. The sensitivity analysis technique can be used in conjunction with existing control system design tools that evaluate control loop interaction, sensitivity, and stability such as singular value decomposition (SVD) and relative gain array (RGA). The disturbance rejection ability of dual-ended and single-ended control schemes using product composition, tray temperature, or internal tray composition measurements can be evaluated for column disturbances such as feed composition changes and operating pressure changes. The assumption is made that material balance disturbances can be handled by feedforward ratio control of the product and feed flow rates. >

Abstract

A framework to simulate multiunit processes is discussed. The method uses VAX/VMS routines to spawn unit software as subprocesses and coordinates the simulation through a shared data file. Each unit contains its own memory of the inputs and outputs and reads and writes only the data pertaining to itself. The framework is very flexible in that units can easily be added and it is independent of the complexity of the units. >

Abstract

A major problem in process control is that the many multivariable relationships in a process are not easily discernible from the raw data. System cultivation is a scheme for defining and monitoring these multivariable relationships on a daily basis. Through these relationships a systematic framework for identifying system problems can be defined. An application of the basics of system cultivation to a simple process is presented. >

Abstract

The energy consumed in distillation processes in the United States represents nearly three percent of the total national energy consumption. If effective control of distillation columns can be accomplished, it has been estimated that it would result in a reduction in the national energy consumption of 0.3%. Real-time control based on mixture composition could achieve these savings. However, the major distillation processes represent diverse applications and at present there does not exist a proven on-line chemical composition sensor technology which can be used to control these diverse processes in real-time. This report presents a summary of the findings of the second phase of a three phase effort undertaken to develop an on-line real-time measurement and control system utilizing Raman spectroscopy. A prototype instrument system has been constructed utilizing a Perkin Elmer 1700 Spectrometer, a diode pumped YAG laser, two three axis positioning systems, a process sample cell land a personal computer. This system has been successfully tested using industrially supplied process samples to establish its performance. Also, continued application development was undertaken during this Phase of the program using both the spontaneous Raman and Surface-enhanced Raman modes of operation. The study was performed for the US Department of Energy, Office more » of Industrial Technologies, whose mission is to conduct cost-shared R&D for new high-risk, high-payoff industrial energy conservation technologies. Although this document contains references to individual manufacturers and their products, the opinions expressed on the products reported do not necessarily reflect the position of the Department of Energy. « less

Abstract

The double isovector giant state has been observed in the ({pi}{sup {minus}}, {pi}{sup +}) {Delta}T{sub z} = +2 double-charge-exchange reaction on {sup 13}C, {sup 27}Al, {sup 40}Ca, {sup 56}Fe, {sup 59}Co, and {sup 93}Nb. The resonances observed in the ({pi}{sup {minus}}, {pi}{sup +}) reaction are closely related via Coulomb displacement energy and isospin symmetry to the resonances measured in the inverse ({pi}{sup +}, {pi}{sup {minus}}) reaction on the same nuclei. The new observations provide a direct determination of the upper isospin component of the double giant dipole state, which is generally very weak in the ({pi}{sup +}, {pi}{sup {minus}}) reaction. The comparison between the double dipole in the two double-charge-exchange modes gives valuable information on the isospin splitting and the Pauli-blocking effects for isotensor transitions.

Two delay-line readout drift chambers with an active area of 90 cm by 7 cm are now in use as focal plane detectors at the high resolution spectrometer Big Karl. The position resolution is better than 0.2 mm fwhm with detector efficiencies exceeding 99.5% for 45 MeV deuterons. Light ions such as protons, deuterons, alphas and others up to 6He have been measured at energies between 15 and 45 Mev per nucleon. The new detector offers a significantly higher focal plane acceptance with improved background suppression and correction capabilities.

The experimental results are discussed in connection with the observed large energy splitting of about 650 keV. The comparison with the corresponding multiplet observed in 146Gd is a new strong indication for the shell closure at Z=64.

Abstract

pi..-/sup 4/He inelastic cross sections have been measured at T/sub ..pi../ = 180 MeV. In the region of the J/sup ..pi../ = 1/sup -/ states (E/sub x/approx. =23 to 30 MeV) the ..pi../sup +//..pi../sup -/ cross-section ratio R/sub ..pi../ was found to be 1.05 +- 0.08 at theta/sub lab/ = 30/sup 0/. Such a small deviation from 1.0 implies that isospin mixing between the T = 0 and T = 1 states in /sup 4/He is quite weak, in striking contrast to the strong isospin mixing deduced from the large ratio of photonucleon cross sections, R/sub ..gamma../ = sigma(..gamma..,p)/sigma(..gamma..,n)approx. =1.7. Thus the conclusion drawn from the photonucleon work, that there is a large charge-symmetry-breaking nuclear force in /sup 4/He, needs to be reexamined.

Abstract

MBE grown double heterostructure InAlAs/InGaAs p-i-n photodiodes have been flip-chip mounted on coplanar waveguides. Two methods: (i) incorporation of doping setback InAlAs layers between the InGaAs absorption region and the doped InAlAs layers and (ii) compositional grading have been used to reduce carrier pile-up at the heterointerfaces. Although both methods improve the diode performances, the best results were obtained with compositional grading: a quantum efficiency of ?38 % at 1.3 ?m, a rise time of ?21 ps and a FWHM of ?40 ps have been obtained for a device with a 24×24 ?m2 area and a 0.5 ?m thick absorption region.

Isobaric analog states have been observed in proton elastic scattering from targets of $^{124}\mathrm{Te}$, $^{126}\mathrm{Te}$, $^{128}\mathrm{Te}$, and $^{130}\mathrm{Te}$. The levels thus observed in $^{125}\mathrm{I}$, $^{127}\mathrm{I}$, $^{129}\mathrm{I}$, and $^{131}\mathrm{I}$ are analogs of low-lying levels of $^{125}\mathrm{Te}$, $^{127}\mathrm{Te}$, $^{129}\mathrm{Te}$, and $^{131}\mathrm{Te}$. Resonance parameters, Coulomb displacement energies, and spectroscopic factors have been extracted. Results are compared with ($d,p$) studies on the target nuclei.

Abstract

An analysis of isobaric analogue resonances is performed to yield the Coulomb displacement energies. The resonances are produced in proton reactions on heavy nuclei. A discussion of the corrections to the resonance data is included. The Coulomb displacement energies can be fitted using the formula: $\ensuremath{\Delta}{E}_{c}={B}_{1}+\frac{{B}_{2}Z}{{A}^{\frac{1}{3}}}$, where ${B}_{1}$ is found to be -1.032\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.056 MeV, and ${B}_{2}$ is 1.448\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}0.006 MeV. There is no evidence for shell, deformation, or pairing effects within the accuracy of this analysis; however, the effects that one would expect to find due to deformations are of the order of the errors in the experiment. The parameters obtained are compared with other measurements of Coulomb displacement energies.

Abstract

Isobaric analogue resonances in nuclei near mass-90 exhibit observed total widths of approximately 50 keV. This paper is concerned with the observation of fine structure of the order of 3 keV near the isobaric analogue resonances. These measurements consist of excitation functions over the 5.3 and 5.9 MeV s-wave resonances in proton elastic scattering on 92Mo and 90Zr, respectively. In both cases the neutron exit channel is closed and other competing reactions are relatively unimportant. It is found that the magnitude of the fine structure becomes about 25 % of the average cross section on resonance and fades away off resonance. The variation of the magnitude of the fine structure is asymmetric with respect to the resonance energy. The cross section averaged over the fine structure has been analysed using an opticalmodel-plus-single-level formula. It is found that both resonances exhibit a large spreading width, which is a measure of the absorption of protons out of the isobaric analogue state into the more complicated states which are essentially degenerate with the analogue state. The asymmetry of the fluctuations away from the average is explained in terms of the Robson “external” mixing formulation.

Abstract

Purpose The role of temporary ovarian suppression with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRHa) during chemotherapy as a strategy to preserve ovarian function and fertility in premenopausal women remains controversial. This systematic review and meta-analysis using individual patient-level data was conducted to better assess the efficacy and safety of this strategy in patients with early breast cancer. Methods The trials in which premenopausal women with early breast cancer were randomly assigned to receive (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy alone or with concurrent GnRHa were eligible for inclusion. Primary end points were premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) rate and post-treatment pregnancy rate. Disease-free survival and overall survival were secondary end points. Because each study represents a cluster, statistical analyses were performed using a random effects model. Results A total of 873 patients from five trials were included. POI rate was 14.1% in the GnRHa group and 30.9% in the control group (adjusted odds ratio, 0.38; 95% CI, 0.26 to 0.57; P < .001). A total of 37 (10.3%) patients had at least one post-treatment pregnancy in the GnRHa group and 20 (5.5%) in the control group (incidence rate ratio, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.06 to 3.15; P = .030). No significant differences in disease-free survival (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.72 to 1.42; P = .999) and overall survival (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.42 to 1.06; P = .083) were observed between groups. Conclusion Our findings provide evidence for the efficacy and safety of temporary ovarian suppression with GnRHa during chemotherapy as an available option to reduce the likelihood of chemotherapy-induced POI and potentially improve future fertility in premenopausal patients with early breast cancer.
