    (Springer, 2019) Artac, Mehmet; Korkmaz, Levent; Coskun, Hasan Senol; Dane, Faysal; Karabulut, Bulent; Karaagac, Mustafa; Cabuk, Devrim; Karabulut, Senem; Aykan, Nuri Faruk; Doruk, Hatice; Avci, Nilufer; Turhal, Nazim Serdar
    PurposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate whether obesity affects survival in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy.MethodsA total of 563 patients with mCRC who had received first-line chemotherapy in combination with bevacizumab were studied. Patients were grouped as obese (BMI levels >30) or non-obese (BMI levels <30). Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. Primary tumor location was also investigated in terms of PFS and OS.ResultsThe median age of the patients was 59years. The non-obese group had longer PFS than the obese group (P=0.030). The 2-year survival rate of the non-obese group was also significantly higher (P=0.036). The median PFS of non-obese patients was significantly longer in Kras wild-type patients (10.1 vs. 8.1months, P=0.010). Among patients with left-sided primary tumor location, median PFS and OS were significantly higher in the non-obese group (PFS non-obese, 11.5months; obese, 8.8months; P=0.002) (OS non-obese, 29.4months; obese, 21.4months; P=0.026).ConclusionsEfficacy of bevacizumab may be lower in obese patients. Among patients with Kras wild-type left-sided tumors treated with bevacizumab-based regimens, the prognosis could be worse for obese patients than that for non-obese patients. There is a need for prospectively designed studies of obese patients to prove the efficacy and dosages of bevacizumab in treatment of mCRC.

    The effectiveness and safety of neoadjuvant pertuzumab and trastuzumab in women with locally advanced, inflammatory, or early-stage human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive breast cancer: Turkish Oncology Group study
    (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2022) Ozdemir, Ozlem; Zengel, Baha; Yildiz, Yasar; Uluc, Basak Oyan; Cabuk, Devrim; Ozden, Ercan; Salim, Derya Kivrak
    In our study, we aimed to evaluate the pathological response rates and side effect profile of adding pertuzumab to the treatment of HER2+ locally advanced, inflammatory, or early-stage breast cancer. This study was conducted by the Turkish Oncology Group (TOG) with data collected from 32 centers. Our study was multicentric, and a total of 364 patients were included. The median age of the patients was 49 years (18-85 years). Two hundred fifteen (60%) of the cases were hormone receptor/HER2+ positive(ER+ or PR+, or both), and 149 (40%) of them were HER2-rich (ER and PR negative). The number of complete responses was 124 (54%) in the docetaxel+trastuzumab+pertuzumab arm and 102 (45%) in the paclitaxel+trastuzumab+pertuzumab arm, and there was no difference between the groups in terms of complete response. In 226 (62%) patients with complete response, a significant correlation was found with DCIS, tumor focality, removed lymph node, and ER status P < 0.05. Anemia, nausea, vomiting, myalgia, alopecia, and mucosal inflammation were significantly higher in the docetaxel arm, P < 0.05. In our study, no statistical difference was found between the before-after echocardiography values. DCIS positivity in biopsy before neoadjuvant chemotherapy, tumor focality; the number of lymph nodes removed and ER status were found to be associated with pCR. In conclusion, we think that studies evaluating pCR-related clinicopathological variables and radiological imaging features will play a critical role in the development of nonsurgical treatment approaches.

    Kras-mutation influences outcomes for palliative primary tumor resection in advanced colorectal cancer-a Turkish Oncology Group study
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2018) Korkmaz, Levent; Coskun, Hasan Senol; Dane, Faysal; Karabulut, Bulent; Karaagac, Mustafa; Cabuk, Devrim; Karabulut, Senem; Aykan, Nuri Faruk; Doruk, Hatice; Avci, Nilufer; Turhal, Nazim Serdar; Artac, Mehmet
    Purpose: We aimed to investigate the prognostic effect of primary tumor resection (PTR) prior to bevacizumab-based treatments in unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Methods: We retrospectively collected 341 mCRC cases with unresectable metastases at diagnosis. PTR was performed in 210 cases (the surgery group) and the other patients (n = 131) were followed without PTR (the no-surgery group). All the patients were treated with bevacizumab combined chemotherapy regimens. Results: The median progression free survival (PFS) of the surgery group was 10.4 months (95% CI: 8.9-11.9), which was significantly better than that of the no-surgery group (7.6 months, 95% CI: 6.4-8.8, P = 0.000). The median overall survival (OS) of the surgery group was longer than that of the no-surgery group (27.4 months vs. 18.3 months, respectively, P = 0.000). The median PFS and OS of the surgery group were 10.4 months and 28.2 months, which were significantly longer than that of the no-surgery group in Kras-mutant patients (7.8 months and 18.3 months; P = 0.004, P = 0 .028, respectively). There was no difference in terms of PFS and OS between the surgery and the no-surgery groups in Kras-wild type patients. Conclusion: Palliative PTR may improve the survival outcomes for unresectable mCRC patients. PTR may be preferred, particularly in Kras-mutant patients.

    Prognostic factors of perioperative FLOT regimen in operable gastric and gastroesophageal junction tumors: real-life data (Turkish Oncology Group)
    (Scientific And Technological Research Council Turkey, 2022) Erol, Cihan; Sakin, Abdullah; Basoglu, Tugba; Ozden, Ercan; Cabuk, Devrim; Dogan, Mutlu; Oksuzoglu, Berna
    Background/aim: Perioperative FLOT regimen is a standard of care in locally advanced operable gastric and GEJ adenocarcinoma. We aimed to determine the efficacy, prognostic factors of perioperative FLOT chemotherapy in real-life gastric and GEJ tumors. Materials and methods: The data of patients who were treated with perioperative FLOT chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed from 34 different oncology centers in Turkey. Baseline clinical and demographic characteristics, pretreatment laboratory values, histological and molecular characteristics were recorded. Results: A total of 441 patients were included in the study. The median of age our study population was 60 years. The majority of patients with radiological staging were cT3-4N(+) (89.9%, n = 338). After median 13.5 months (IQR: 8.5-20.5) follow-up, the median overall survival was NR (95% CI, NR to NR), and median disease free survival was 22.9 (95% CI, 18.6 to 27.3) months. The estimated overall survival at 24 months was 62%. Complete pathological response (pCR) and near pCR was achieved in 23.8% of all patients. Patients with lower NLR or PLR have significantly longer median OS (p = 0.007 and p = 0.033, respectively), and patients with lower NLR have significantly longer median DFS (p = 0.039), but PLR level did not affect DFS (p = 0.062). The OS and DFS of patients with better ECOG performance scores and those who could receive FLOT as adjuvant chemotherapy instead of other regimens were found to be better. NLR was found to be independent prognostic factor for OS in the multivariant analysis. At least one adverse event reported in 57.6% of the patients and grade 3-4 toxicity was seen in 23.6% patients. Conclusion: Real-life perioperative FLOT regimen in operable gastric and GEJ tumors showed similar oncologic outcomes compared to clinical trials. Better performance status, receiving adjuvant chemotherapy as same regimen, low grade and low NLR and PLR improved outcomes in real-life. However, in multivariate analysis, only NLR affected OS.
