Abstract PDF Supplementary Material PubReader ePub: Purpose
This study aimed to evaluate long-term treatment outcomes in patients with localized gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma treated with radiotherapy (RT).
Materials and Methods
A total of 229 patients who received RT in 10 tertiary hospitals between 2010 and 2019 were included in this multicenter analysis. Response after RT was based on esophagogastroduodenoscopy after RT. Locoregional relapse-free survival (LRFS) and disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were evaluated.
Results
After a median follow-up time of 93.2 months, 5-year LRFS, DFS, and OS rates were 92.8%, 90.4%, and 96.1%, respectively. LRFS, DFS, and OS rates at 10 years were 90.3%, 87.7%, and 92.8%, respectively. Of 229 patients, 228 patients (99.6%) achieved complete remission after RT. Five-year LRFS was significantly lower in patients with stage IIE than in those with stage IE (77.4% vs. 94.2%, p=0.047). Patients with age ≥ 60 had significantly lower LRFS than patients with age < 60 (89.3% vs. 95.1%, p=0.003). In the multivariate analysis, old age (≥ 60 years) was a poor prognostic factor for LRFS (hazard ratio, 3.72; confidence interval, 1.38 to 10.03; p=0.009). Grade 2 or higher gastritis was reported in 69 patients (30.1%). Secondary malignancies including gastric adenocarcinoma, malignant lymphoma, lung cancer, breast cancer, and prostate cancer were observed in 11 patients (4.8%) after RT.
Conclusion
Patients treated with RT for localized gastric MALT lymphoma showed favorable 10-year outcomes. Radiation therapy is an effective treatment without an increased risk of secondary cancer. The toxicity for RT to the stomach is not high.

Purpose
There is limited data on radiotherapy (RT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with Child-Pugh classification B (CP-B). This study aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes of fractionated conformal RT in HCC patients with CP-B.
Materials and Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the data of HCC patients with CP-B treated with RT between 2009 and 2014 at 13 institutions in Korea. HCC was diagnosed by the Korea guideline of 2009, and modern RT techniques were applied. Fraction size was ≤ 5 Gy and the biologically effective dose (BED) ≥ 40 Gy10 (α/β = 10 Gy). A total of 184 patients were included in this study.
Results
Initial CP score was seven in 62.0% of patients, eight in 31.0%, and nine in 7.0%. Portal vein tumor thrombosis was present in 66.3% of patients. The BED ranged from 40.4 to 89.6 Gy10 (median, 56.0 Gy10). After RT completion, 48.4% of patients underwent additional treatment. The median overall survival (OS) was 9.4 months. The local progression-free survival and OS rates at 1 year were 58.9% and 39.8%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, non-classic radiation-induced liver disease (RILD) (p < 0.001) and additional treatment (p < 0.001) were the most significant prognostic factors of OS. Among 132 evaluable patients without progressive disease, 19.7% experienced non-classic RILD. Normal liver volume was the most predictive dosimetric parameter of non-classic RILD.
Conclusion
Fractionated conformal RT showed favorable OS with a moderate risk non-classic RILD. The individual radiotherapy for CP-B could be cautiously applied weighing the survival benefits and the RILD risks.

Impact of Regional Nodal Irradiation for Breast Cancer Patients with Supraclavicular and/or Internal Mammary Lymph Node Involvement: A Multicenter, Retrospective Study (KROG 16-14): Kyubo Kim, Yuri Jeong, Kyung Hwan Shin, Jin Ho Kim, Seung Do Ahn, Su Ssan Kim, Chang-Ok Suh, Yong Bae Kim, Doo Ho Choi, Won Park, Jihye Cha, Mison Chun, Dong Soo Lee, Sun Young Lee, Jin Hee Kim, Hae Jin Park, Wonguen Jung; Cancer Res Treat. 2019;51(4):1500-1508. Published online March 15, 2019; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4143/crt.2018.575

Abstract PDF Supplementary Material PubReader ePub

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the treatment outcomes of radiotherapy (RT) for breast cancer with ipsilateral supraclavicular (SCL) and/or internal mammary (IMN) lymph node involvement.
Materials and Methods
A total of 353 patients from 11 institutions were included. One hundred and thirty-six patients had SCL involvement, 148 had IMN involvement, and 69 had both. All patients received neoadjuvant systemic therapy followed by breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy, and postoperative RT to whole breast/chest wall. As for regional lymph node irradiation, SCL RT was given to 344 patients, and IMN RT to 236 patients. The median RT dose was 50.4 Gy.
Results
The median follow-up duration was 61 months (range, 7 to 173 months). In-field progression was present in SCL (n=20) and/or IMN (n=7). The 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival rates were 57.8% and 75.1%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, both SCL/IMN involvement, number of axillary lymph node ≥ 4, triple-negative subtype, and mastectomy were significant adverse prognosticators for DFS (p=0.022, p=0.001, p=0.001, and p=0.004, respectively). Regarding the impact of regional nodal irradiation, SCL RT dose ≥ 54 Gy was not associated with DFS (5-year rate, 52.9% vs. 50.9%; p=0.696) in SCL-involved patients, and the receipt of IMN RT was not associated with DFS (5-year rate, 56.1% vs. 78.1%; p=0.099) in IMN-involved patients.
Conclusion
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery and postoperative RT achieved an acceptable in-field regional control rate in patients with SCL and/or IMN involvement. However, a higher RT dose to SCL or IMN RT was not associated with the improved DFS in these patients.

Incorporating Risk Factors to Identify the Indication of Post-mastectomy Radiotherapy in N1 Breast Cancer Treated with Optimal Systemic Therapy: A Multicenter Analysis in Korea (KROG 14-23): Hae Jin Park, Kyung Hwan Shin, Jin Ho Kim, Seung Do Ahn, Ja Young Kim, Won Park, Yong Bae Kim, Yeon-joo Kim, Jin Hee Kim, Kyubo Kim, Kyung Ran Park, Hyun Soo Shin, Bae Kwon Jeong, Sun Young Lee, Suzy Kim; Cancer Res Treat. 2017;49(3):739-747. Published online October 19, 2016; DOI: https://doi.org/10.4143/crt.2016.405

Abstract PDF Supplementary Material PubReader ePub

Purpose
In a recent meta-analysis, post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) reduced any first recurrence (AFR) and improved survival in N1 and N2 patients. We investigated risk factors for AFR in N1 after optimal systemic therapy without PMRT, to define a subgroup of patients who may benefit from PMRT.
Materials and Methods
One thousand three hundred eighty-two pT1-2N1M0 breast cancer patients treated with mastectomy without PMRT between 2005 and 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Only 0.6% had no systemic therapy.
Results
After a median follow-up of 5.9 years, there were 173 AFR (53 loco-regional recurrence [LRR] without distant metastases [DM], 38 LRR with DM, and 82 DM without LRR). The 5-year LRR and AFR rates were 6.1% and 12.0%, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that close resection margin (p=0.001) was the only independent risk factor for LRR. Multivariate analysis for AFR revealed that age < 35 years (p=0.025), T2 stage (p=0.004), high tumor grade (p=0.032), close resection margin (p=0.035), and triple-negative biological subtype (p=0.031) were independent risk factors. Two or three positive lymph nodes (p=0.078) were considered a marginally significant factor. When stratified by these six factors, the 5-year LRR rates were 3.6% with 0-1 (n=606), 7.5% with 2-3 (n=655), and 12.7% with 4-6 (n=93) risk factors. The 5-year AFR rates were 7.1% with 0-1, 15.0% with 2-3, and 24.5% with 4-6 risk factors.
Conclusion
Patients with pT1-2N1M0 breast cancer who underwent mastectomy and optimal systemic therapy showed excellent loco-regional control and disease control. The patients with four or more risk factors may benefit from PMRT, and those with two or three risk factors merit consideration of PMRT.

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
The biallelic expression of insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF2) and H19 has been reported to be associated with the progression of several tumors. Here, the promoter usage and expression levels of IGF2 and H19 are reported to be altered in cervical and endometrial cancers showing loss of imprinting (LOI).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
The imprinting status of IGF2 and H19 was examined in 32 cervical carcinomas, their matched normal tissues, 13 endometrial cancer and 33 normal endometrial tissues.
RESULTS
The LOI of IGF2 was observed in 7 of 18 (39%) and 1 of 13 (8.3%) informative cervical carcinomas and informative endometrial cancers, respectively. The LOI of the H19 gene was detected in 5 of 14 (36%) and in all 11 (100%) informative cervical carcinoma cases and informative endometrial cancer cases, respectively. The use of promoter P1 was observed in the LOI tumors of IGF2, but not in the tumors showing maintenance of IGF2 imprinting (MOI), or in cervical and endometrial cancers. Unlike MOI tumors, some LOI tumors revealed a lack of IGF2 transcription from the promoter P3. The LOI tumors of IGF2 showed increased expression of the IGF2 level, but a down-regulation of the H19, relative to normal tissues, whereas the MOI tumors revealed no significant alterations.
CONCLUSION
These results suggest that the promoter P1 could be involved in the biallelic expression of IGF2, and that the altered expression of the IGF2 and H19 levels might be associated with the progression of cervical and endometrial cancers that exhibit biallelic IGF2 expression.

A Case of Concurrent Occurrence of Small Cell Carcinoma and Adenocarcinoma in the Stomach: Ki Nam Shim, Sa Young Park, Sun Young Lee, Jin Hyuk Choi, Soon Nam Lee, Woon Sup Han; J Korean Cancer Assoc. 1995;27(3):513-521.

Abstract PDF: Frimary small cell careinoma of the stomach is an extremely rare disease. It has similar clinical behavior with small cell cardnoma of lung, which shows aggressive course with rapid and wide dissemination and very poor prognosis. We report a case of concurrent occurrence of primary small cell carcinoma and adeno- carcinoma in the stomach with multiple intraaMominal metastases, which had responded to combination chemotherapy with 5-FU, VP-16, and Cisplatin.

Determination of Preoperative Serum CEA Level in Curativeal Resected Gastric Cancer: Jin Hyuk Choi, Sun Young Lee, Kang Sup Shim, Hye Young Son, Ki Youl Seo, Jong Seon Kim, Jin Ah Park, Eun Soon Hong, Hyo Jeong Kim, Su Young Park, Min Gyeu Hwang, Kang Sup Shim; J Korean Cancer Assoc. 1996;28(6):1050-1055.

Abstract PDF: Background
Although the role of serum carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA) as a tumor marker in gastric cancer remains unanswered, several reports suggested the usefulness of serum CEA as prognostic factor or indicator of recurrence. Methods: Preoperative serum levels of CEA were determined in 79 patients with curatively resected gastric cancer and its correlation with clinicopathologic characteristics was investigated. Results: Serum CEA was positive(defined as>5ng/ml) in 16 patients(20.3%). The mean age of CEA positive group(62.9¡¾7.5 years) was significantly older than that of the negative group(53.2¡¾12.7 years)(p=0.005), and Borrmann type III cases were more frequent in CEA positive group(56.3% vs. 19.0%)(p=0.026). There were no significant differences between two groups in other clinicopathologic characteristics, including tumor size, tumor location, differentiation of tumor, and stages. Conclusion: Serum CEA does not seem to be standard. tumor marker of gastric cancer, in terms of screening or diagnosis. However, it could be useful as prognostic factor or for early detection of recurrence in curatively resected gaxtric cancer
