Abstract

Until recently, most patients with sentinel lymph node-positive (SLN+) melanoma underwent a completion lymph node dissection (CLND), as mandated in published trials of adjuvant systemic therapies. Following multicenter selective lymphadenectomy trial-II, most patients with SLN+ melanoma no longer undergo a CLND prior to adjuvant systemic therapy. A retrospective analysis of clinical outcomes in SLN+ melanoma patients treated with adjuvant systemic therapy after July 2017 was performed in 21 international cancer centers. Of 462 patients who received systemic adjuvant therapy, 326 patients received adjuvant anti-PD-1 without prior immediate (IM) CLND, while 60 underwent IM CLND. With median follow-up of 21 months, 24-month relapse-free survival (RFS) was 67% (95% CI 62% to 73%) in the 326 patients. When the patient subgroups who would have been eligible for the two adjuvant anti-PD-1 clinical trials mandating IM CLND were analyzed separately, 24-month RFS rates were 64%, very similar to the RFS rates from those studies. Of these no-CLND patients, those with SLN tumor deposit >1 mm, stage IIIC/D and ulcerated primary had worse RFS. Of the patients who relapsed on adjuvant anti-PD-1, those without IM CLND had a higher rate of relapse in the regional nodal basin than those with IM CLND (46% vs 11%). Therefore, 55% of patients who relapsed without prior CLND underwent surgery including therapeutic lymph node dissection (TLND), with 30% relapsing a second time; there was no difference in subsequent relapse between patients who received observation vs secondary adjuvant therapy. Despite the increased frequency of nodal relapses, adjuvant anti-PD-1 therapy may be as effective in SLN+ pts who forego IM CLND and salvage surgery with TLND at relapse may be a viable option for these patients.

Abstract

Melanoma is usually apparent on the skin and readily detected by trained medical providers using a routine total body skin examination, yet this malignancy is responsible for the majority of skin cancer-related deaths. Currently, there is no national consensus on skin cancer screening in the USA, but dermatologists and primary care providers are routinely confronted with making the decision about when to recommend total body skin examinations and at what interval. The objectives of this paper are: to propose rational, risk-based, data-driven guidelines commensurate with the US Preventive Services Task Force screening guidelines for other disorders; to compare our proposed guidelines to recommendations made by other national and international organizations; and to review the US Preventive Services Task Force's 2016 Draft Recommendation Statement on skin cancer screening.

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine overall trends and center-level variation in utilization of completion lymph node dissection (CLND) and adjuvant systemic therapy for sentinel lymph node (SLN)-positive melanoma. Summary Background Data: Based on recent clinical trials, management options for SLN-positive melanoma now include effective adjuvant systemic therapy and nodal observation instead of CLND. It is unknown how these findings have shaped practice or how these contemporaneous developments have influenced their respective utilization. Methods: We performed an international cohort study at 21 melanoma referral centers in Australia, Europe, and the United States that treated adults with SLN-positive melanoma and negative distant staging from July 2017 to June 2019. We used generalized linear and multinomial logistic regression models with random intercepts for each center to assess center-level variation in CLND and adjuvant systemic treatment, adjusting for patient and disease-specific characteristics. Results: Among 1109 patients, performance of CLND decreased from 28% to 8% and adjuvant systemic therapy use increased from 29 to 60%. For both CLND and adjuvant systemic treatment, the most influential factors were nodal tumor size, stage, and location of treating center. There was notable variation among treating centers in management of stage IIIA patients and use of CLND with adjuvant systemic therapy versus nodal observation alone for similar risk patients. Conclusions: There has been an overall decline in CLND and simultaneous adoption of adjuvant systemic therapy for patients with SLN-positive melanoma though wide variation in practice remains. Accounting for differences in patient mix, location of care contributed significantly to the observed variation.

Abstract

A 31-gene expression profile (31-GEP) test that predicts metastatic risk in patients with cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) has previously been validated and is available for clinical use. The test dichotomizes patients into lower risk and higher risk groups based on differences that correspond to unique genetic expression patterns. Although the impact of such a test on dermatology providers' clinical decision-making has been studied, little is known about whether there exists an association between certain clinical features, such as dermoscopy, and 31-GEP results.In this retrospective analysis of 31-GEP test results ordered by dermatologists, we evaluated the frequency of dermoscopic features, using a modified dermoscopy three-point checklist, in 17 cases (n=17) and compared these findings to other key clinicopathologic features including tumor thickness, ulceration, and mitotic rate to 31-GEP results. Additionally, we evaluated the dermatologist's perspective and incorporation of GEP testing as part of patient discussion on melanoma management.31-GEP stratified patients into 4 groups; groups 1A and 1B are considered low risk of metastasis or recurrence, while 2A and 2B are considered high risk. Of the 17 cases, we had fifteen group 1A (88.23%), one 1B (5.88%), and one 2B (5.88%) result. Overall frequency of dermoscopic features is as follows; 100% of lesions presented with asymmetry, 47% with round structures, and 70.6% with blue-white color. The average time providers spent explaining and ordering the test was 15 minutes, with a range of 10 to 20 minutes.This study represents our experience and understanding of the dermatologistrsquo;s role ordering 31-GEP in the care pathway of melanoma patients and we recommend that dermatology providers consider ordering the test for newly diagnosed CMM patients.

Abstract

Survival for positive sentinel lymph node (SLN) patients does not differ between completion lymph node dissection (CLND) and nodal observation (OBS). However, treating these patients with CLND and checkpoint inhibitors, such as pembrolizumab (PEM), improves outcomes. This study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of OBS, CLND, and CLND with PEM (CLND-PEM) treatments.A Markov model was designed to simulate treatment for a theoretical cohort of 1000 positive SLN patients per therapy with a 5-year follow-up period. An intervention was cost-effective if its incremental cost-effectiveness ratio among therapies was below the willingness-to-pay threshold of $100,000 per quality-adjusted life year (QALY).Compared with CLND or CLND-PEM, OBS resulted in fewer lymphedema cases but in more disease recurrences. Compared with OBS, CLND had higher costs and lower QALYs. Although CLND-PEM had a lower number of recurrences and deaths than OBS or CLND, it had higher costs and lower QALYs than OBS, and thus was not cost-effective. However, with the effects of CLND from CLND-PEM removed, allowing evaluation of PEM effects alone (PEM alone), the resulting QALYs were the highest, but PEM alone still was not cost-effective compared with OBS ($1.2 million per QALY). By reducing the drug cost to less than $14,404 per patient, PEM alone would become cost-effective.Compared with CLND, CLND-PEM, and PEM alone, OBS was cost-effective for managing positive SLN patients. Although CLND-PEM and PEM alone result in fewer recurrences and deaths, these therapies were not cost-effective due to the quality-of-life decrement of CLND and the current high drug cost of PEM.

Abstract

Background:The selection of lobectomy or wedge resection in the treatment of patients with stage I primary lung cancer remains controversial. Clinical judgment based on comorbidities remains the main decision factor. We investigated the impact of procedure on long-term survival in a multicenter retrospective analysis. Methods:The records of 289 patients who underwent surgical resection of stage I primary lung cancer between 1993 and 1998 at three tertiary medical centers were reviewed for age, sex, type of resection, tumor size, number of lymph nodes dissected, pathology, and recurrence. Long-term survival was obtained through the Federal Social Security Death Index and Cancer Registries. Kaplan-Meier, Wilcox, logistic regression, and power andttest analyses were used to examine survival, predictors of mortality, and correlations. Results:A total of 215 patients underwent lobectomy, and 74 underwent wedge resection. The groups were similar with respect to age, tumor size, and other comorbidities. Overall, there was a nonsignificant trend toward better survival times in patients after lobectomy vs wedge resection (mean [± SD] survival time, 5.8 ± 0.3 vs 4.1 ± 0.3 years, respectively; p=0.112). This trend gained significance in smaller cancers, where patients who underwent lobectomy for tumors Conclusion:Although the overall difference in survival time between patients undergoing lobectomy and those undergoing wedge resection was not significant, patients with tumors

Abstract

The selection of lobectomy or wedge resection in the treatment of patients with stage I primary lung cancer remains controversial. Clinical judgment based on comorbidities remains the main decision factor. We investigated the impact of procedure on long-term survival in a multicenter retrospective analysis.The records of 289 patients who underwent surgical resection of stage I primary lung cancer between 1993 and 1998 at three tertiary medical centers were reviewed for age, sex, type of resection, tumor size, number of lymph nodes dissected, pathology, and recurrence. Long-term survival was obtained through the Federal Social Security Death Index and Cancer Registries. Kaplan-Meier, Wilcox, logistic regression, and power and t test analyses were used to examine survival, predictors of mortality, and correlations.A total of 215 patients underwent lobectomy, and 74 underwent wedge resection. The groups were similar with respect to age, tumor size, and other comorbidities. Overall, there was a nonsignificant trend toward better survival times in patients after lobectomy vs wedge resection (mean [+/- SD] survival time, 5.8 +/- 0.3 vs 4.1 +/- 0.3 years, respectively; p = 0.112). This trend gained significance in smaller cancers, where patients who underwent lobectomy for tumors3 cm in size had better survival times compared to those who underwent wedge resection (p = 0.029).Although the overall difference in survival time between patients undergoing lobectomy and those undergoing wedge resection was not significant, patients with tumors3 cm in size had improved survival times after undergoing lobectomy. Thus, tumor size appears to be an important factor to be considered in preoperative planning. Randomized trials are necessary to confirm the superiority of lobectomy over wedge resection for stage IA lung cancers.

Abstract

Characterizing TIL composition allows monitoring of immunotherapies and can be a prognostic factor for clinical outcome. Here we analyze the phenotype and function of lymphocytes collected from peripheral blood and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, immediately following resection, from 15 patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) and 21 ovarian cancer primary tumors (OVC). Samples were analyzed using a multi-color flow panel and by qPCR for cytokine production. The percentage of different lymphocyte subpopulations was similar in both patients. Highly suppressive Tregs expressing HLA-DR were significantly increased in TIL compared to PBL in CRLM: 69.4% vs 31.7% (p=0.0002) and in OVC: 74.8% versus 38.6% (p

Abstract

Abstract Introduction  The main purpose of this study was to determine whether the optic cups of tamoxifen users and anastrozole users differ in size, with the cups of the tamoxifen users being smaller. Methods  Optic nerve head (ONH) topography was measured using a commercially available, confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscope for three populations of amenorrheic women ages 40–69 years: subjects using (1) tamoxifen (20 mg/day) or (2) anastrozole (1 mg/day) for ≤ 2 years as adjuvant therapy after successful primary treatment for breast cancer, and (3) control subjects with no breast cancer histories and not using any hormonal medication. All subjects had excellent visual acuity and healthy eyes, based on conventional photographic assessment. Results  The cup volumes of the tamoxifen users were shown to be significantly smaller than the cup volumes of the anastrozole users, which were indistinguishable from normal. Because the cup volumes of the tamoxifen users decreased markedly with age at about 50 years and because anastrozole is indicated only for post-menopausal women, comparisons were reassessed for subjects older than 50 years. For these subjects, the cup volumes of the tamoxifen users averaged less than half of the volumes for each of the other two subject groups, and significant between-group differences existed in both the lateral (cup area) and axial (cup depth) directions. In contrast, any between-group differences at the ONH margin were small and not significant. Conclusions  The results of this study suggest that the ONH be assessed biomorphometrically for tamoxifen users reporting visual change that cannot be attributed to non-tamoxifen causes. The ability of modern intraocular imaging techniques to reveal anatomic change on the order of tens of microns may be useful for assessing tamoxifen-induced effects occurring simultaneously elsewhere in the brain, particularly since the presence of small cups is consistent with the possibility of tamoxifen-induced astrocytic swelling.
