| 1 | Metastatic pancreatic cancer: Is there a light at the end of the tunnel?显示文摘Due to extremely poor prognosis,pancreatic cancer(PDAC)represents the fourth leading cause of cancerrelated death in Western countries.For more than a decade,gemcitabine(Gem)has been the mainstay of first-line PDAC treatment.Many efforts aimed at improving single-agent Gem efficacy by either combining it with a second cytotoxic/molecularly targeted agent or pharmacokinetic modulation provided disappointing results.Recently,the field of systemic therapy of advanced PDAC is finally moving forward.Polychemotherapy has shown promise over single-agent Gem:regimens like PEFG-PEXG-PDXG and GTX provide significant potential advantages in terms of survival and/or disease control,although sometimes at the cost of poor tolerability.The PRODIGE 4/ACCORD 11 was the first phaseⅢtrial to provide unequivocal benefit using the polychemotherapy regimen FOLFIRINOX;however the less favorable safety profile and the characteristics of the enrolled population,restrict the use of FOLFIRINOX to young and fit PDAC patients.The nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel(nab-Paclitaxel)formulation was developed to overcome resistance due to the desmoplastic stroma surrounding pancreatic cancer cells.Regardless of whether or not this is its main mechanisms of action,the combination of nabPaclitaxel plus Gem showed a statistically and clinically significant survival advantage over single agent Gem and significantly improved all the secondary endpoints.Furthermore,recent findings on maintenance therapy are opening up potential new avenues in the treatment of advanced PDAC,particularly in a new era in which highly effective first-line regimens allow patients to experience prolonged disease control.Here,we provide an overview of recent advances in the systemic treatment of advanced PDAC,mostly focusing on recent findings that have set new standards in metastatic disease.Potential avenues for further development in the metastatic setting and current efforts to integratenew effective chemotherapy regimens in earlier stages of disease(neoadjuvant,adjuvant,and multimodal approaches in both resectable and unresectable patients)are also briefly discussed. | Vanja Vaccaro Isabella Sperduti Sabrina Vari Emilio Bria Davide Melisi Carlo Garufi Carmen Nuzzo Aldo Scarpa Giampaolo Tortora Francesco Cognetti Michele Reni Michele Milella | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015,21,16: | 2 |

| 4 | First-line erlotinib and fixed dose-rate gemcitabine for advanced pancreatic cancer显示文摘AIM: To investigate activity, toxicity, and prognostic factors for survival of erlotinib and fixed dose-rate gemcitabine (FDR-Gem) in advanced pancreatic cancer. METHODS: We designed a single-arm prospective, multicentre, open-label phase Ⅱ study to evaluate the combination of erlotinib (100 mg/d, orally) and weekly FDR-Gem (1000 mg/m 2 , infused at 10 mg/m 2 per minute) in a population of previously untreated patients with locally advanced, inoperable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer. Primary endpoint was the rate of progression-free survival at 6 mo (PFS-6); secondary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR), response duration, tolerability, overall survival (OS), and clinical benefit. Treatment was not considered to be of further interest if the PFS-6 was < 20% (p0 = 20%), while a PFS-6 > 40% would be of considerable interest (p1 = 40%); with a 5% rejection error (α = 5%) and a power of 80%, 35 fully evaluable patients with metastatic disease were required to be enrolled in order to complete the study. Analysis of prognostic factors for survival was also carried out. RESULTS: From May 2007 to September 2009, 46 patients were enrolled (male/female: 25/21; median age: 64 years; median baseline carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9): 897 U/mL; locally advanced/metastatic disease: 5/41). PFS-6 and median PFS were 30.4% and 14 wk (95%CI: 10-19), respectively; 1-year and median OS were 20.2% and 26 wk (95%CI: 8-43). Five patients achieved an objective response (ORR: 10.9%, 95%CI: 1.9-19.9); disease control rate was 56.5% (95%CI: 42.2-70.8); clinical benefit rate was 43.5% (95%CI: 29.1-57.8). CA 19-9 serum levels were decreased by > 25% as compared to baseline in 14/23 evaluable patients (63.6%). Treatment was well-tolerated, with skin rash being the most powerful predictor of both longer PFS (P < 0.0001) and OS (P = 0.01) at multivariate analysis (median OS for patients with or without rash: 42 wk vs 15 wk, respectively, Log-rank P = 0.03). Additional predictors of better outcome were: CA 19-9 reduction, female sex (for PFS), and good performance status (for OS). CONCLUSION: Primary study endpoint was not met. However, skin rash strongly predicted erlotinib efficacy, suggesting that a pharmacodynamic-based strategy for patient selection deserves further investigation. | Vanja Vaccaro Emilio Bria Isabella Sperduti Alain Gelibter Luca Moscetti Giovanni Mansueto Enzo Maria Ruggeri Teresa Gamucci Francesco Cognetti Michele Milella | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,28: | 1 |

| 6 | “Targeting” renal cell carcinoma patients with “targeted” agents: Are we there yet?显示文摘The rapid approval of several novel agents, targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor or mammalian target of rapamycin pathways(sunitinib, pazopanib, sorafenib, axitinib, bevacizumab, everolimus, temsirolimus) has given to metastatic renal cell carcinoma(m RCC) patients and their treating physicians many new and effective therapeutic options. The treatment paradigm for these patients is rapidly evolving, with future studies needed to defi ne the optimal sequencing of these new agents. Despite progresses, no validated biomarkers able to predict clinical outcome or useful to guide patient selection for treatment are currently available. Recent studies have suggested that some biomarkers, including cytokines, circulating proangio-genic factors, markers of hypoxia or targets of signaling pathways are potentially promising prognostic or predictive factors in m RCC. We present an overview of the most recent developments in identifying biomarkers for targeted therapies in advanced RCC. | Francesca Maines Sara Pilotto Michele Milella Francesco Massari Vanja Vaccaro Alessandra Felici Emilio Bria Giampaolo Tortora | 2014 | World Journal of Clinical Urology2014,3,1: | 0 |
| 7 | Neoadjuvant treatment:A window of opportunity for nutritional prehabilitation in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma显示文摘Patients affected by pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(PDAC)frequently present with advanced disease at the time of diagnosis,limiting an upfront surgical approach.Neoadjuvant treatment(NAT)has become the standard of care to downstage non-metastatic locally advanced PDAC.However,this treatment increases the risk of a nutritional status decline,which in turn,may impact therapeutic tolerance,postoperative outcomes,or even prevent the possibility of surgery.Literature on prehabilitation programs on surgical PDAC patients show a reduction of postoperative complications,length of hospital stay,and readmission rate,while data on prehabilitation in NAT patients are scarce and randomized controlled trials are still missing.Particularly,appropriate nutritional management represents an important therapeutic strategy to promote tissue healing and to enhance patient recovery after surgical trauma.In this regard,NAT may represent a new interesting window of opportunity to implement a nutritional prehabilitation program,aiming to increase the PDAC patient’s capacity to complete the planned therapy and potentially improve clinical and survival outcomes.Given these perspectives,this review attempts to provide an in-depth view of the nutritional derangements during NAT and nutritional prehabilitation program as well as their impact on PDAC patient outcomes. | Ilaria Trestini Marco Cintoni Emanuele Rinninella Futura Grassi Salvatore Paiella Roberto Salvia Emilio Bria Carmelo Pozzo Sergio Alfieri Antonio Gasbarrini Giampaolo Tortora Michele Milella Maria Cristina Mele | 2021 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2021,13,9: | 0 |
