    (2022-08-01) AKIN TELLİ, TUĞBA; ÖZGÜVEN, SALİH; FİLİZOĞLU, NUH; ÖZTÜRK, MEHMET SAADEDDİN; ARIKAN, RUKİYE; DEMİRCAN, NAZIM CAN; BAŞOĞLU TÜYLÜ, TUĞBA; ALSAN ÇETİN, İLKNUR; ÖNEŞ, TUNÇ; DANE, FAYSAL; YUMUK, PERRAN FULDEN; AKIN TELLİ T., ÖZGÜVEN S., Alan O., Filizoglu N., ÖZTÜRK M. S. , Sariyar N., Isik S., Arikan R., DEMİRCAN N. C. , BAŞOĞLU TÜYLÜ T., et al.
    Objective We aimed to evaluate whether baseline Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT-derived whole-body volumetric parameters could be used as predictive biomarkers for survival in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients receiving first-line treatment. Materials and methods This retrospective study included 54 mCRPC patients, who underwent baseline Ga-68-PSMA PET/CT imaging within 1 month before starting first-line treatment. Pre-treatment prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels and treatments were recorded. SUVmax, SUVmean, whole-body PSMA-derived tumor volume (wbPSMA-TV), and whole-body total lesion PSMA (wbTL-PSMA) were calculated for all patients. PSA response was defined as a decline of >= 50% from pre-treatment value at 12 weeks. Overall survival (OS) was measured from the start of the first-line treatment for mCRPC. Results Docetaxel and abiraterone/enzalutamide were administered to 32 and 22 patients in the first-line setting, respectively. wbPSMA-TV (rho = 0.582, p = 0.004) and wbTL-PSMA (rho = 0.564, p = 0.007) showed moderate positive correlations with PSA levels. Older age (p = 0.02), higher wbPSMA-TV (p = 0.007), higher PSA (p = 0.01), higher number of bone metastases (p = 0.02), and lack of PSA response (p = 0.03) were significantly associated with an increased risk of mortality. Multivariate analysis determined wbPSMA-TV (HR: 1.003, 95% CI 1.001-1.004, p = 0.001) and PSA response (HR: 2.241, 95% CI 1.189-4.222, p = 0.01) as independent predictors of OS. Conclusion The wbPSMA-TV may be a useful tool to reflect tumor burden and predict survival outcomes in patients with mCRPC.

    Differences in PET/CT standardized uptake values involvement and survival compared to histologic subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2021) BOZKURTLAR, EMİNE; Ercelep, Ozlem; Alan, Ozkan; Telli, Tugba A.; Tuylu, Tugba B.; Arikan, Rukiye; Demircan, Nazim Can; Simsek, Eda T.; Babacan, Nalan A.; Kaya, Serap; Dane, Faysal; Bozkurtlar, Emine; Ones, Tunc; Lacin, Tunc; Yumuk, Perran Fulden
    Purpose: Lung adenocarcinoma is histologically diverse but has distinct histologic growth patterns. There is no consensus on the clinical benefit of this histologic model. We aimed to evaluate the differences in the distribution of the preoperative primary tumor positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) standardized uptake values (SUVs) and survival in the lung adenocarcinoma subtypes. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the data of 107 patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma who had preoperative PET/CT between 2005 and 2017 in a single center. Patients had lepidic, acinar, papillary, micropapillary, and solid histologic subtypes. We compared fluorodeoxyglucose SUVs and survival data of histologic subtypes. Results: The median age of the patients was 62 years (40-75), 76.4% were male, the median SUVmax was 9.4 (1-36.7), and the median follow-up time was 29 months (3-135 months). The median overall survival (OS) was 71 months and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 33 months. SUVmax was significantly different in histologic subtypes: values for papillary, micropapillary, solid, acinar, and lepidic subtypes were 9.7, 8, 12, 9.1, and 3.9, respectively (p= 0.000). Solid predominant adenocarcinoma had significantly higher SUVmax than the other subtypes (p= 0.001). Lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma had significantly lower SUVmax than the other subtypes (p= 0.000). There was no significant difference in OS between histologic subtypes (p= 0.66), but PFS was significantly different between the groups (p= 0.017), and the solid subtype had a shorter PFS than the other histologic subtypes. Conclusion: Lung adenocarcinoma consists of a diverse group of diseases. Different SUVmax values are seen in different histologic subtypes of nonmetastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Solid predominant types have high SUVmax values while lepidic predominant types have lower SUVmax values. The solid subtype had a shorter PFS than the other histologic subtypes.

    Effect of PET/CT standardized uptake values on complete response to treatment before definitive chemoradiotherapy in stage III non-small cell lung cancer
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2019) DANE, FAYSAL; Ercelep, O.; Alan, O.; Sahin, D.; Telli, T. A.; Salva, H.; Tuylu, T. B.; Babacan, N. A.; Kaya, S.; Dane, F.; Ones, T.; Alkis, H.; Adli, M.; Yumuk, F.
    PurposeThe standard treatment for patients with stage III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), unsuitable for resection and with good performance, is definitive radiotherapy with cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Our aim is to evaluate the effect of the maximum value of standardized uptake values (SUVmax) of the primary tumor in positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) before treatment on complete response (CR) and overall survival.MethodsThe data of 73 stage III NSCLC patients treated with concurrent definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT) between 2008 and 2017 and had PET/CT staging in the pretreatment period were evaluated. ROC curve analysis was performed to determine the ideal cut-off value of pretreatment SUVmax to predict CR.ResultsMedian age was 58years (range 27-83years) and 66 patients were male (90.4%). Median follow-up time was 18months (range 3-98months); median survival was 23months. 1-year overall survival (OS) rate and 5-year OS rate were 72 and 19%, respectively. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 9months; 1-year PFS rate and 5-year PFS rate were 38 and 19%, respectively. The ideal cut-off value of pretreatment SUVmax that predicted the complete response of CRT was 12 in the ROC analysis [AUC 0.699 (0.550-0.833)/P<0.01] with a sensitivity of 83%, and specificity of 55%. In patients with SUVmax<12, CR rate was 60%, while, in patients with SUV12, it was only 19% (P=0.002). Median OS was 26months in patients with pretreatment SUVmax<12, and 21months in patients with SUVmax12 (HR=2.93; 95% CI 17.24-28.75; P=0.087). CR rate of the whole patient population was 26%, and it was the only factor that showed a significant benefit on survival in both univariate and multivariate analyses.ConclusionPretreatment SUVmax of the primary tumor in PET/CT may predict CR in stage III NSCLC patients who were treated with definitive CRT. Having clinical CR is the only positive predictive factor for prolonged survival.

    QT interval prolongation related to afatinib treatment in a patient with metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer
    (MOSBY-ELSEVIER, 2020) KOCAKAYA, DERYA; Demircan, Nazim Can; Telli, Tugba Akin; Tuylu, Tugba Basoglu; Arikan, Rukiye; Kocakaya, Derya; Sahin, Ahmet Anil; Ercelep, Ozlem; Dane, Faysal; Yumuk, Perran Fulden
    Afatinib improves survival in metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer driven by activating epidermal growth factor receptor mutations. QT interval prolongation is a possible side effect of tar geted anticancer drugs, but this has not been reported before with afatinib. We report a case of metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma with epidermal growth factor receptor exon 19 deletion who was treated with first-line afatinib. The patient was started on afatinib with a total dose of 40 mg/day and experienced grade 3 (> 500 ms) QT interval prolongation in the seventh week. Dose was interrupted and then reduced to 30 mg/day after the event repeated. QT prolongation occurred only once with the reduced dose and radiologic oligoprogression was detected. Local therapy was performed and afatinib was continued as 30 mg/day. To the best of our knowledge, this case marks the first QT interval prolongation associated with afatinib. It is prudent to perform a baseline cardiologic evaluation and electrocardiogram monitoring in non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with this drug. (c) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

    Tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer patients with early cytokine intolerance: TURCOS, a Turkish national, prospective observational study
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2021) DANE, FAYSAL; Benekli, Mustafa; Gumus, Mahmut; Ozkan, Metin; Dane, Faysal; Elkiran, Emin T.; Cicin, Irfan; Sevinc, Alper; Aliustaoglu, Mehmet; Isikdogan, Abdurrahman; Meydan, Nezih; Oksuzoglu, Berna; Ozyilkan, Ozgur; Artac, Mehmet; Ozdemir, Feyyaz; Kilickap, Sadettin
    Objective Cytokines have been the mainstay of treatment in metastatic renal cell cancer (mRCC) for decades before the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), which dramatically changed the therapeutic landscape in these patients. This observational study was designed to evaluate use of TKIs in the treatment of cytokine-intolerant mRCC patients. Methods A total of 151 cytokine-intolerant mRCC patients who were treated with TKIs (sunitinib, pazopanib and sorafenib) were enrolled in this prospective, non-interventional, multi-center observational study at 16 oncology centers across Turkey. Mean (SD) age was 61.3 (11.1) years and 74.8% were males. Data on duration of TKI treatment was the primary outcome measure. Additionally, overall response rate (ORR), progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety data were recorded. Results Median duration of treatment was 8.2 months at a median follow up of 17.9 months. ORR and disease control rate were 12.5% and 70.8%, respectively. Median PFS and OS were 7.5 months (95%CI: 6.4-10.4) and 27.3 months (95%CI: 17.6-27.3) with no significant difference among three TKI agents in terms of treatment duration, ORR, PFS and OS. The most common adverse events excluding progression-which was the protocol requirement were diarrhea (13.6%), asthenia (13.6%) and hand-foot syndrome (12.6%). Dose modifications were required in 30.5% of the patients and 15% discontinued TKIs because of toxicity. Conclusions Our findings confirm the efficacy and safety profile of TKIs in the first-line treatment of mRCC patients intolerant to cytokine treatment. There was no significant difference among three TKI agents in terms of treatment duration, ORR, PFS and OS.

    Is Subdivision of pT2 Tumors Superior to Lymph Node Metastasis for Predicting Survival of Patients with Gastric Cancer? Review of 224 Patients from Four Centers
    (SPRINGER, 2011) DANE, FAYSAL; Bilici, Ahmet; Dane, Faysal; Seker, Mesut; Ustaalioglu, Bala Basak Oven; Aliustaoglu, Mehmet; Temiz, Suleyman; Gezen, Cem; Yavuzer, Dilek; Aksu, Gorkem; Mayadagli, Alpaslan; Gumus, Mahmut; Uygun, Kazim; Turhal, Nazim Serdar
    Background The prognostic significance of the subclassification of pT2 tumors and the association of these categories with other clinicopathological factors in gastric cancer patients were investigated. Methods A total of 224 patients with pT2 gastric cancer who had undergone curative gastrectomy and lymph node dissection were retrospectively analyzed. The prognostic role of the subclassification of pT2 tumors was evaluated by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results Of 224 patients, 75 (33.5%) were classified as having pT2a tumors and 149 (66.5%) as having pT2b tumors. The prevalence of large-sized tumors (P < 0.003), lymph node involvement (P < 0.018), and lymphatic (P = 0.016), blood vessel (P = 0.001), and perineural invasion (P = 0.001) was significantly higher for pT2b tumors than for pT2a tumors. The rate of recurrence for pT2a cancers was significantly lower than that for pT2b cancers (P = 0.001).Median overall survival (OS) times and three-year OS of patients with a pT2b tumor were significantly worse than for patients with a pT2a tumor (P < 0.001).When patients were analyzed according to lymph node involvement, the prognosis of patients with pT2aN(1) cancers was significantly better than that of patients with pT2bN(1) (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis indicated that the pT2 subdivision was an independent prognostic factor for OS (P = 0.006), as were pN stage, clinical stage, and recurrence. Conclusion Our results showed that subclassification of pT2 tumors into pT2a or pT2b was an important prognostic indicator for patients with pT2 gastric cancers who underwent curative gastrectomy. In the TNM staging system, subdivision of pT2 tumors should be undertaken routinely to detect gastric cancer patients who have a poor prognosis and to define patients more accurately in terms of their mortality after curative resection in accordance with the new 2010 AJCC TNM staging classification. This may also help as a guide to more appropriate therapy for tumors with subserosal invasion (old pT2b or new pT3).

    Weight gain after adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with early breast cancer in Istanbul Turkey
    (HUMANA PRESS INC, 2011) DANE, FAYSAL; Basaran, Gul; Turhal, Nazim Serdar; Cabuk, Devrim; Yurt, Nevin; Yurtseven, Gul; Gumus, Mahmut; Teomete, Mehmet; Dane, Faysal; Yumuk, Perran Fulden
    Weight gain is a well-known and unwanted complication of adjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer. We observed that the female Turkish cancer patients frequently gain weight with adjuvant treatment of breast cancer and planned to examine the magnitude of this problem in early breast cancer patients treated at our hospital. A total of 176 early breast cancer patients who received their adjuvant systemic therapy in Marmara University Hospital between 2003 and 2007 are included in the study. We recorded their weight before and after chemotherapy and also a year after chemotherapy to find out whether the change with weight is transitory. We have also recorded demographic information, including the educational level, menopausal status, the type of chemotherapy or hormonal treatment administered stage of disease, marital status, occupation and the underlying diseases to analyze the relationship between change in weight and these parameters. Median age of patients was 53 and 72% of patients were postmenopausal. Educational level was equally distributed for primary education (27%), high school (40%), and university (33%). The majority of the patients (76%) was married, had two children (69%) and was housewife (60%). Family history of any cancer was high (32%). Most of the patients had stage II cancer (56%), received anthracyclines+/- taxane based chemotherapy (98%) and had no underlying disease (68%). The majority also did not smoke (73%) or drink alcohol (93%). A total of 67% and 72% patients gained weight upon completion and one year after completion of chemotherapy. Mean weight before the chemotherapy, upon completion of chemotherapy and one year after completion of chemotherapy were 68.9 kg, 70.6 kg (P = 0.000) and 71.9 kg (P = 0.000) respectively. Mean body mass index was 27.1 at baseline, 27.8 upon completion of chemotherapy (P = 0.000) and 28.3 one year after completion of chemotherapy (P = 0.000). Age, menopausal status, multiparity and presence of comorbid diseases had statistically significant impact on weight gain following adjuvant therapy in breast cancer patients (P = 0.000, P = 0.008, P = 0.015 and P = 0.017 respectively). This study shows that Turkish women with early breast cancer gain weight after adjuvant systemic therapy, in line with European and American counterparts. This increase in weight is maintained at least one year after adjuvant therapy. Given the adverse consequences of weight gain in terms of both breast cancer prognosis and general health, it is necessary to inform patients about this change and to develop strategies for weight maintenance during and after systemic therapy.

    What to expect from HER-2 directed therapies in advanced gastric cancer?
    (MARMARA UNIV, FAC MEDICINE, 2015-04-15) DANE, FAYSAL; Dane, Faysal
    Gastric cancer is the second most common cause of cancer related death worldwide. Over 20% of the advanced gastric cancer are considered to be HER-2 positive. Studies investigating the prognosis of HER-2 positive advanced gastric cancer revealed conflicting results. Trastuzumab, a monoclonal antibody against HER-2, has shown a significant clinical activity in HER-2 positive gastric cancer patients. In this review, I will briefly summarize the clinical studies of anti-HER-2 therapies performed in HER-2 positive gastric carcinoma.
