    (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.

    (2021) ÖZTÜRK, FATİH EMİN; Başoğlu, Tuğba; Akar, Kadriye Ebru; Bağcı, Pelin; Akgül Babacan, Nalan; Öztürk, Mehmet Akif; Öztürk, Fatih Emin; Demircan, Nazım Can; Arikan, Rukiye; Akın Telli, Tuğba; Ercelep, Özlem; Dane, Faysal; Yumuk, Perran Fulden
    BACKGROUND: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma differs from other solid tumors with its unique immunosuppressive microenvironment and non-immunogenic feature. There are not many studies in the literature investigating the effect of these features on prognosis. AIM: To investigate the prognostic value of tissue-resident memory cells, tumor microenvironment features, and tumor-associated immune cells in resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective cross-sectional study. METHODS: Of 138 patients diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma between 2011 and 2018, 81 were included in the study. Specimens from operated patients were reassessed separately as peritumoral and intratumoral areas for tissue resident memory and tumor microenvironmental elements (tumor infiltrating lymphocytes, tumor stroma, CD204+ macrophages, PDL1+ immune cells). Disease-free survival and overall survival were defined from the date of operation to the date of recurrence and the date of first diagnosis to the date of death, respectively. If the patient was alive, the last visit date was taken into account. RESULTS: The median age at diagnosis was 63 (range: 40-78). The median follow-up period was 18.9 months (range 1.4-80.4 months). Median overall survival was 23.7 months (1.4-80.4 months) and median disease-free survival was 10.8 months (1.4-74.4 months). Patients with higher intra-tumoral tissue-resident memory cell counts had a longer survival trend than those having lower values (25.6 months vs. 18 months, respectively, P = .84). According to microenvironmental evaluations, lower stromal score (defined as stroma having less desmoplasia and rich in cells) and presence of peritumoral Crohn's-like inflammatory response were associated with higher survival (29.2 months vs. 19.7 months for low vs. high stromal scores, respectively, P = .16 and 30.2 months vs. 18.1 months for the presence of Crohn's-like inflammatory response P = .13). Decreased survival was observed in tumors with increased CD204+ tumor-associated macrophages which were immunosuppressive elements of the microenvironment (12 months vs. 26.3 months for intra-tumoral assessment, P = .29). CONCLUSION: Tissue-resident memory cells and other microenvironmental features may be prognostic in resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas. Further studies with larger cohorts are needed for validation.

    Is insulin resistance a predictor for complete response in breast cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant treatment?
    (BMC, 2020-12) DANE, FAYSAL; Alan, Ozkan; Akin Telli, Tugba; Aktas, Bilge; Koca, Sinan; Okten, Ilker Nihat; Hasanov, Rahib; Basoglu, Tugba; Arikan, Rukiye; Demircan, Nazim Can; Ercelep, Ozlem; Kaya, Serap; Ugurlu, Mustafa Umit; Kaya, Handan; Akgul Babacan, Nalan; Dane, Faysal; Yumuk, Perran Fulden
    Purpose Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the standard front-line treatment modality in locally advanced breast cancer. Achieving pathological complete response (pCR) is a significant prognostic factor for prolonged disease-free and overall survival. Insulin resistance is defined as a pathological condition in which insulin effect is impaired in peripheral target tissues such as the skeletal muscle, liver, and adipose tissue. The relationship between breast cancer and insulin resistance is controversial. In this study, our aim is to evaluate the role of insulin resistance, body mass index (BMI), metabolic syndrome, and inflammation markers to predict complete response in breast cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant treatment. Methods Data from 55 locally advanced non-diabetic breast cancer patients, treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy between 2015 and 2017, were retrospectively evaluated. Homeostatic model assessment, IR = insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated by using the obtained insulin and fasting blood glucose values before neoadjuvant chemotherapy (fasting insulin x fasting glucose/405). We considered a cut-off of 2.5 for insulin resistance. The systemic inflammatory index (SII), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were calculated. Results Twenty-five patients had no insulin resistance. The most common pathologic subtype (56%) was hormone receptor (HR) positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (Her-2)-negative invasive ductal carcinoma. Sixteen (29%) patients had a pathological complete response (pCR). We found that the probability of pCR in patients with insulin resistance was 4.7 times lower than that in patients without insulin resistance [OR: 4.7 (95%CI 1.7-17.2),p= 0.01]. Conclusion Our results revealed that insulin resistance may have a negative effect on pathological complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant therapy particularly with hormone-positive and Her-2-negative cases of non-diabetic breast cancer.

    Association of Pre-treatment Sarcopenia with Side Effects and Prognosis in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients Receiving Erlotinib
    (2022-08-01) DEMİRCAN, NAZIM CAN; ENGÜR, CEREN ÖZGE; AKIN TELLİ, TUĞBA; BAŞOĞLU TÜYLÜ, TUĞBA; ARIKAN, RUKİYE; ÖZGÜVEN, SALİH; DANE, FAYSAL; KAYA, HANDAN; ÖNEŞ, TUNÇ; YUMUK, PERRAN FULDEN; DEMİRCAN N. C. , ENGÜR C. Ö. , AKIN TELLİ T., BAŞOĞLU TÜYLÜ T., Arikan R., Yasar A., Celebi A., Alan O., Isik S., ÖZGÜVEN S., et al.
    OBJECTIVE We investigated the relationship of baseline sarcopenia with toxicities, treatment response, and survival in patients who had non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and received erlotinib.METHODS Computed tomography images from PET/CT scans before erlotinib treatment were retrospectively assessed. Skeletal muscle index, calculated as skeletal muscle area at third lumbar vertebra level/square of height, was used to define sarcopenia with < 52.4 cm2/m2 for males and < 38.5 cm2/m2 for females. Cox hazard models were conducted to determine predictors of survival.RESULTS The study included 30 patients, and 11 (36.7%) were sarcopenic. All-grade and Grade 3 toxicities were more frequent in sarcopenic group, although it was statistically insignificant (81.8% vs. 63.2%, p=0.282 for all-grade, and 18.2% vs. 10.5%, p=0.552 for grade 3). Response rates were 63.6% in sarcopenic and 68.4% in non-sarcopenic patients (p=0.789). Median progression-free survival was 7.9 and 9.2 months in sarcopenic and non-sarcopenic cases, respectively (p=0.561). However, median overall survival (OS) of sarcopenic patients was significantly shorter than non-sarcopenic ones (11.8 vs. 30.2 months, p=0.023), and sarcopenia predicted OS independently in multivariate analysis (Hazard ratio=2.63, p=0.029).CONCLUSION Early recognition, treatment, and prevention of sarcopenia may improve long-term survival in EGFRmutant NSCLC patients treated with first-line erlotinib.
