    [VIRTUAL] Doxycycline as preventive treatment of skin toxicity in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer treated with an anti-EGFR and chemotherapy () -  Jun 1, 2021 - Abstract #ESMOGI2021ESMO_GI_213;    
    P2
    Background Anti-EGFR therapies, like cetuximab or panitumumab, are amongst the most extensively used therapies for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), but both are associated with the development of skin toxicities...To treat skin- or nail- related toxicities, 3 (30%) of the patients that received doxycycline 50 mg/day received topical antibiotics and 7 (70%) corticosteroids; 5 (21%) of the patients that received doxycycline 100 mg/day received topical antibiotics and 10 (12%) corticosteroids. Conclusions Taking in consideration the results of this study, where doxycycline 100 mg/day for 6 weeks has reduced the incidence of grade 2 skin toxicities to 21%, this would be considered the recommended dose/frequency of doxycycline as prophylaxis to prevent anti-EGFR skin toxicities.

    [VIRTUAL] US real-world ramucirumab and immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment sequences in advanced gastric, gastroesophageal junction, or esophageal cancer () -  Jun 1, 2021 - Abstract #ESMOGI2021ESMO_GI_211;    
    Background Ramucirumab plus paclitaxel (RAM+pac) and RAM monotherapy have demonstrated survival benefit in advanced gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma following fluoropyrimidine/platinum...For ICI RAM, the most common sequence for first three lines was 1L fluoropyrimidine+platinum, 2L ICI, 3L RAM+taxane, and most common regimens were 1L FOLFOX (38%), 2L pembrolizumab (38%), 3L RAM+pac (38%)...Conclusions In real-world clinical practice, when patients receive both RAM and ICIs for advanced gastric/GEJ/esophageal cancer, patients most commonly receive RAM prior to ICI. Whether prior to or after ICI, the most common RAM regimen is RAM+pac, with numerically similar time on RAM, regardless of sequence.

    [VIRTUAL] Efficacy of FOLFOX4 regimen with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and prognostic factors for survival () -  Jun 1, 2021 - Abstract #ESMOGI2021ESMO_GI_167;    
    Conclusions These results of PFS, OS and RR, suggest that FOLFOX4 regimen may confer some benefit and can be an option for treatment of advanced HCC in those who cannot access targeted therapy. Poor prognostic factors for survival could be useful for clinicians considering treatment decisions.

    Journal:  Mixed oleic acid-erucic acid liposomes as a carrier for anticancer drug. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 1, 2021   
    Using a 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, the median inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of mixed oleic acid-erucic acid encapsulating hydrophilic drugs was remarkably reduced at the end of 24 hours of incubation with the human lung carcinoma cell line A549. The results suggest that mixed oleic acid-erucic acid liposomes are a potential new approach to further develop as an alternative vehicle of various drugs for cancer treatment.

    Clinical, Retrospective data, Journal:  Predictors and significance of histologic response to neoadjuvant therapy for gastric cancer. (Pubmed Central) -  Jun 1, 2021   
    In this cohort, 46% of patients had no histologic response to therapy. SRC histology, and possibly race, should be considered in determination of optimal multidisciplinary regimens and in amount of therapy to be given upfront, as patients with SRC histology and those of non-Asian race are less likely to respond to standard regimens.

    The FDA has acknowledged bio-equivalence of Deflexifol™ to 5-FU/LV, and its suitability for the 505(b)(2) registration pathway. FivepHusion is seeking investment and strategic partners to pursue registration and commercialisation of Deflexifol™ as the new standard of care for solid tumor treatment.

    [VIRTUAL] Oxaliplatin- induced neuropathy and peripheral nerve hyperexcitability in a patient with gastric cancer (CBW Room) -  May 30, 2021 - Abstract #EAN2021EAN_1957;    
    He had gastric adenocarcinoma with metastasis to the liver and abdominal lymph nodes, which had been treated with a modified FOLFOX-6 regimen containing oxaliplatin, fluorouracil, and folinic-acid. ENMG has a key role in diagnosis, classification of acute/chronic neurotoxicity, and identification of reversibility, whereas follow up and research studies may enlighten the transition between these processes.

    Review, Journal, HEOR:  Health Economic Models for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: A Methodological Review. (Pubmed Central) -  May 29, 2021   
    Model-based cost-effectiveness analyses of systemic mCRC treatments have adopted varied modelling methods and structures, resulting in substantially different outcomes. As models generally focus on first-line treatment without consideration of downstream treatments, there is a profound source of structural uncertainty implying that the cost-effectiveness of treatments across the mCRC pathway remains uncertain.

    The combined strategy may be considered as an optimal treatment choice to provide chance of cure in locally advanced and potentially resectable HCC. Changes in fatty acid levels resulting from a nutraceutical combination containing EPA and DHA provide a response biomarker in treating depression.

    Retrospective data, Journal:  Staged laparoscopic management of locally advanced gastric cancer with outlet obstruction. (Pubmed Central) -  May 25, 2021   
    Despite the excellent long-term outcomes, a pCR does not equal cure because this cohort of patients still has a significant risk of recurrence. This case series showed that curative surgical resection was feasible as a staged approach for patients with locally advanced gastric cancer with outlet obstruction, after initial staged gastrojejunostomy and chemotherapy.
