World Journal of Surgery 2024年6月24日Abstract Background Osteopenia reflects frailty and has been shown to be associated with outcomes in cancer patients. This study was undertaken to examine whether osteopenia is an independent prognostic factor in patients with esophageal cancer after resection. Methods A total of 214 patients who underwent surgery for esophageal cancer were analyzed retrospectively. Bone mineral density (BMD) of the 11th thoracic vertebra was measured by computed tomography scan, and patients classified into osteopenia and normal BMD groups with BMD <160 Hounsfield units as the cutoff. Clinicopathological data and prognosis were analyzed. Results The 5‐year survival rate was 55.4% for the osteopenia group and 74.7% for the normal BMD group with a significantly worse prognosis in the osteopenia group (p = 0.0080). In multivariable analysis, osteopenia was a significant independent risk factor associated with overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] 1.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.27–3.34, and p = 0.0151) along with R1/2 resection (HR 3.02, 95% CI 1.71–5.18, and p = 0.0002). Conclusion In patients with esophageal cancer undergoing resection, osteopenia may be a surrogate marker for frailty and an independent predictor of prognosis.

Cancers 16(11) 2087-2087 2024年5月30日Background: Osteopenia is a well-known risk factor for survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma; however, it is unclear whether osteopenia can apply to both genders and how osteopenia is associated with cancer progression. The aim of this study was to elucidate whether osteopenia predicts reduced survival in regression models in both genders and whether osteopenia is associated with the pathological factors associated with reduced survival. Methods: This study included 188 consecutive patients who underwent hepatectomy. Bone mineral density was assessed using computed tomography (CT) scan images taken within 3 months before surgery. Non-contrast CT scan images at the level of the 11th thoracic vertebra were used. The cutoff value of osteopenia was calculated using a threshold value of 160 Hounsfield units. Overall survival (OS) curves and recurrence-free survival (RFS) were constructed using the Kaplan–Meier method, as was a log-rank test for survival. The hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval for overall survival were calculated using Cox’s proportional hazard model. Results: In the regression analysis, age predicted bone mineral density. The association in females was greater than that in males. The OS and RFS of osteopenia patients were shorter than those for non-osteopenia patients. According to univariate and multivariate analyses, osteopenia was an independent risk factor for OS and RFS. The sole pathological factor associated with osteopenia was microvascular portal vein invasion. Conclusion: Models suggest that osteopenia may predict decreased OS and RFS in patients undergoing resection of hepatocellular carcinoma due to the mechanisms mediated via microvascular portal vein invasion.

Scientific Reports 14(1) 2024年2月26日Abstract Intestinal adaptation does not necessarily recover absorptive capacity in short bowel syndrome (SBS), sometimes resulting in intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD). Additionally, its therapeutic options remain limited. Polyamines (spermidine and spermine) are known as one of the autophagy inducers and play important roles in promoting the weaning process; however, their impact on intestinal adaptation is unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of polyamines ingestion on adaptation and hepatic lipid metabolism in SBS. We performed resection of two-thirds of the small intestine in male Lewis rats as an SBS model. They were allocated into three groups and fed different polyamine content diets (0%, 0.01%, 0.1%) for 30 days. Polyamines were confirmed to distribute to remnant intestine, whole blood, and liver. Villous height and number of Ki-67-positive cells in the crypt area increased with the high polyamine diet. Polyamines increased secretory IgA and mucin content in feces, and enhanced tissue Claudin-3 expression. In contrast, polyamines augmented albumin synthesis, mitochondrial DNA copy number, and ATP storage in the liver. Moreover, polyamines promoted autophagy flux and activated AMP-activated protein kinase with suppression of lipogenic gene expression. Polyamines ingestion may provide a new therapeutic option for SBS with IFALD.

Annals of surgical oncology 31(2) 735-743 2024年2月BACKGROUND: Intraperitoneal chemotherapy is promising for gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis. Although a phase III study failed to show a statistically significant superiority of intraperitoneal paclitaxel combined with S-1 and intravenous paclitaxel, the sensitivity analysis suggested clinical efficacy. Thus, attempts to combine intraperitoneal paclitaxel with other systemic therapies with higher efficacy have been warranted. We sought to explore the efficacy of intraperitoneal paclitaxel with S-1 and cisplatin. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis were enrolled in the phase II trial. In addition to the established S-1 and cisplatin regimen every 5 weeks, intraperitoneal paclitaxel was administered on days 1, 8, and 22 at a dose of 20 mg/m2. The primary endpoint was overall survival rate at 1 year after treatment initiation. Secondary endpoints were progression-free survival and toxicity. RESULTS: Fifty-three patients were enrolled and fully evaluated for efficacy and toxicity. The 1-year overall survival rate was 73.6% (95% confidence interval 59.5-83.4%), and the primary endpoint was met. The median survival time was 19.4 months (95% confidence interval, 16.1-24.6 months). The 1-year progression-free survival rate was 49.6% (95% confidence interval, 34.6-62.9%). The incidences of grade 3/4 hematological and non-hematological toxicities were 43% and 47%, respectively. The frequent grade 3/4 toxicities included neutropenia (25%), anemia (30%), diarrhea (13%), and anorexia (17%). Intraperitoneal catheter and implanted port-related complications were observed in four patients. There was one treatment-related death. CONCLUSIONS: Intraperitoneal paclitaxel combined with S-1 and cisplatin is well tolerated and active in gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.

Scientific Reports 13(1) 2023年9月20日Abstract It is important to assess the prognosis and intervene before and after surgery in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. This study aims to elucidate the association of outcomes and residual liver function after hepatectomy. A total of 176 patients who underwent the initial resection for hepatocellular carcinoma between January 2011 and March 2021 at Jichi Medical University were included. Hepatic clearance of the remnant liver was measured using 99mTc-galactosyl serum albumin scintigraphy. The log-rank test was used to analyze survival using the Kaplan–Meier method. Hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for overall survival were calculated using Cox’s proportional hazard model. In multivariate analysis, microvascular invasion, intraoperative blood loss, and hepatic clearance of the remnant liver were independently associated with overall survival. Hepatic clearance of the remnant liver was independently associated with recurrence free survival. This is the first report to show that lower residual liver function is associated with shorter survival in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing hepatectomy. Preoperative determination of remnant liver function may allow assessment of prognosis in patients planned to undergo resection of hepatocellular carcinoma. Preservation of liver functional reserve may be crucial for improved long-term outcomes after hepatectomy.

International journal of colorectal disease 38(1) 173-173 2023年6月20日BACKGROUND: The safety of intraperitoneally administrated paclitaxel (op PTX) was demonstrated in the phase I trial of ip PTX combined with conventional systemic chemotherapy for colorectal cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Moreover, the median survival time was 29.3 months, which was longer than that observed in previous studies. Here, we planned the phase II trial of ip PTX: the iPac-02 trial. METHODS: This multicenter, open-label, single assignment interventional clinical study includes patients with colorectal cancer with unresectable peritoneal carcinomatosis. FOLFOX-bevacizumab or CAPOX-bevacizumab is administered concomitantly as systemic chemotherapy. PTX 20 mg/m2 is administered weekly through the peritoneal access port in addition to these conventional systemic chemotherapies. The response rate is the primary endpoint. Progression-free survival, overall survival, peritoneal cancer index improvement rate, rate of negative peritoneal lavage cytology, safety, and response rate to peritoneal metastases are the secondary endpoints. A total of 38 patients are included in the study. In the interim analysis, the study will continue to the second stage if at least 4 of the first 14 patients respond to the study treatment. The study has been registered at the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials (jRCT2031220110). RESULTS: We previously conducted phase I trial of ip PTX combined with conventional systemic chemotherapy for colorectal cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis [1]. In the study, three patients underwent mFOLFOX, bevacizumab, and weekly ip PTX, and the other three patients underwent CAPOX, bevacizumab, and weekly ip PTX treatment. The dose of PTX was 20 mg/m [2]. The primary endpoint was the safety of the chemotherapy, and secondary endpoints were response rate, peritoneal cancer index improvement rate, rate of negative peritoneal lavage cytology, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Dose limiting toxicity was not observed, and the adverse events of ip PTX combined with oxaliplatin-based systemic chemotherapy were similar to those described in previous studies using systemic chemotherapy alone [3, 4]. The response rate was 25%, peritoneal cancer index improvement rate was 50%, and cytology in peritoneal lavage turned negative in all the cases. The progression-free survival was 8.8 months (range, 6.8-12 months), and median survival time was 29.3 months [5], which was longer than that observed in previous studies. CONCLUSION: Here, we planned the phase II trial of ip paclitaxel combined with conventional chemotherapy for colorectal cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis: the iPac-02 trial.

Current Oncology 30(2) 1860-1868 2023年2月2日Background: The prognostic importance of osteopenia in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) undergoing hepatectomy is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of osteopenia on survival in patients with ICC. Methods: A total of 71 patients who underwent hepatectomy at Jichi Medical University between July 2008 and June 2022 were included in this study. Non-contrast computed tomography scan images at the eleventh thoracic vertebra were used to assess bone mineral density. The cutoff value was calculated using a threshold value of 160 Hounsfield units. Overall survival curves were made using the Kaplan–Meier method and the log-rank test was used to evaluate survival. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for overall survival were calculated using Cox’s proportional hazard model. Results: In multivariable analysis, osteopenia (HR 3.66, 95%CI 1.16–14.1, p = 0.0258) and the platelet–lymphocyte ratio (HR 6.26, 95%CI 2.27–15.9, p = 0.0008) were significant independent factors associated with overall survival. There were no significant independent prognostic factors for recurrence-free survival. Conclusions: Preoperative osteopenia is significantly associated with postoperative survival in patients with ICC undergoing hepatectomy.

BJS open 7(1) 2023年1月6日BACKGROUND: Low-density granulocytes (LDGs) have been shown to be increased in the peripheral blood of patients with inflammatory and malignant diseases. This study evaluated LDGs in patients who underwent radical surgery for colorectal cancer (CRC) and their impact on survival. METHODS: Patients who underwent radical colectomy between 2017 to 2021 were screened for enrolment in the study. Peripheral blood was obtained in the operating room before and after surgery and cells were recovered from the mononuclear layer after density gradient preparations. The ratio of CD66b(+) LDG to CD45(+) leukocytes was determined with flow cytometry, and the association of the ratios with patient outcomes was examined. The main outcome of interest was recurrence-free survival (RFS). RESULTS: Out of 228 patients treated, 176 were enrolled, including 108 colonic and 68 rectal cancers. Overall, 38 patients were stage I, 30 were stage II, 72 were stage 3, and 36 were stage IV. The number of LDGs was markedly increased immediately after surgery and the proportion of LDGs correlated positively with operating time (r = 0.2806, P < 0.001) and intraoperative blood loss (r = 0.1838, P = 0.014). Purified LDGs produced high amounts of neutrophil extracellular traps after short-term culture and efficiently trapped tumour cells in vitro. The proportion of postoperative LDGs was significantly higher in 13 patients who developed recurrence (median 9 (range 1.63-47.0)) per cent versus median 2.93 ((range 0.035-59.45) per cent, P = 0.013). When cut-off values were set at 4.9 per cent, a higher proportion of LDGs was strongly and independently associated with decreased RFS (P = 0.005). In patients with stage III disease, adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved RFS of patients with high ratios of LDGs, but not low LDGs. CONCLUSION: LDGs are recruited to circulating blood by surgical stress early in the postoperative interval after colectomy for colonic cancer and their postoperative proportion is correlated with recurrence.

Colorectal disease : the official journal of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland 24(10) 1140-1149 2022年10月AIM: The clinical efficacy of chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is largely dependent on host immune status. The aim of this study was to identify possible markers expressed on circulating mononuclear cells to predict tumour response in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 47 patients diagnosed with LARC before and after CRT. The numbers of lymphocytes and monocyte subsets were analysed using flow cytometry. Based on clinical and pathological findings, patients were classified as high or low responders. RESULTS: Lymphocyte counts were markedly decreased after CRT. Total numbers of lymphocytes (p = 0.030) and CD4(+) T cells (p = 0.041) in post-CRT samples were significantly lower in low responders than in high responders. In contrast, monocyte counts were not reduced and the number of CD14dim (+) CD16(+) nonclassical (patrolling) monocytes were somewhat increased after CRT (p = 0.050). Moreover, the ratios of programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) (+) cells on patrolling monocytes before and after CRT were significantly higher in low responders than in high responders (p = 0.0046, p = 0.0006). The same trend was observed for classical and intermediate monocytes. The expression of PD-L1 on patrolling monocytes before CRT correlated inversely with the number of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells after CRT. PD-L1(+) ratio in patrolling monocytes was an independent predictor for response to CRT. CONCLUSION: Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression on patrolling monocytes suppresses cell-mediated immunity in patients receiving CRT which could be related to tumour response, and may be a useful biomarker for decision-making in the management of patients with LARC.
