Abstract Background Community engagement is commonly used to address social inequities. The Carnegie Foundation offers an optional designation for which U.S. colleges and universities may apply to facilitate better educational outcomes through the institutionalization of community engagement. This study is the first to examine the relationship between Carnegie community engaged status and community health outcomes. Methods Ordinal logistic regression was conducted to investigate the association between the presence of a community engaged institution and county health outcomes, including health behaviors, clinical care relating to access and quality, social and economic factors, and physical environment from the 2016 Robert Wood Johnson County Health Rankings and 2015 New England Resource Center for Higher Education Community engaged list. We examined 820 U.S. counties containing a university or college, 240 of which had a community engaged designation. Results Findings indicated that the presence of a community-engaged institution was positively associated with Clinical Care (OR = 1.99; 95% CI: 1.09, 3.64). Other county health factors were not similarly associated. Conclusions Our findings suggest that community engagement status may be most relevant for achieving better access and quality of clinical care. More research is needed to explore this association in the U.S. and internationally.

Objectives: To evaluate the ability of 18F-labeled fluoro-2-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) to predict survivorship of patients with bladder cancer (BC) and/or upper urinary tract carcinoma (UUTC). Materials: Data from patients who underwent FDG PET/CT for suspicion of recurrent urothelial carcinoma (UC) between 2007 and 2015 were retrospectively collected in a multicenter study. Disease management after the introduction of FDG PET/CT in the diagnostic algorithm was assessed in all patients. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank analysis were computed for survival assessment. A Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors of recurrence and death, for BC, UUTC, and concomitant BC and UUTC. Results: Data from 286 patients were collected. Of these, 212 had a history of BC, 38 of UUTC and 36 of concomitant BC and UUTC. Patient management was changed in 114/286 (40%) UC patients with the inclusion of FDG PET/CT, particularly in those with BC, reaching 74% (n = 90/122). After a mean follow-up period of 21 months (Interquartile range: 4–28 mo.), 136 patients (47.4%) had recurrence/progression of disease. Moreover, 131 subjects (45.6%) died. At Kaplan-Meier analyses, patients with BC and positive PET/CT had a worse overall survival than those with a negative scan (log-rank < 0.001). Furthermore, a negative PET/CT scan was associated with a lower recurrence rate than a positive examination, independently from the primary tumor site. At multivariate analysis, in patients with BC and UUTC, a positive FDG PET/CT resulted an independent predictor of disease-free and overall survival (p < 0,01). Conclusions: FDG PET/CT has the potential to change patient management, particularly for patients with BC. Furthermore, it can be considered a valid survival prediction tool after primary treatment in patients with recurrent UC. However, a firm recommendation cannot be made yet. Further prospective studies are necessary to confirm our findings.

ABSTRACTIntroductionHereditary transthyretin (hATTR) amyloidosis is a progressive, degenerative disease, with peripheral neuropathy, cardiomyopathy, and other clinical manifestations. In this study we examine the impact of hATTR amyloidosis on quality of life (QOL).MethodsNeuropathy‐specific QOL, measured with the Norfolk QOL‐Diabetic Neuropathy questionnaire, was compared between patients with hATTR amyloidosis and patients with type 2 diabetes, whereas generic QOL, measured with the 36‐item Short Form Health Survey version 2 (SF‐36v2), was compared between patients with hATTR amyloidosis, the general population, and patients with chronic diseases.ResultsNeuropathy‐specific QOL for patients with hATTR amyloidosis was nearly equivalent to that of patients with type 2 diabetes with diabetic neuropathy accompanied by a history of ulceration, gangrene, or amputation. Generic QOL was worse than that seen in the general population, with physical functioning worse than that for patients with multiple sclerosis and congestive heart failure.DiscussionPatients with hATTR amyloidosis show significant burden on QOL, particularly in physical functioning.

Abstract Background Predictive molecular biomarkers to select optimal treatment for patients with glioblastoma and other cancers are lacking. New strategies are needed when large randomized trials with correlative molecular data are not feasible. Methods Gene signatures (GS) were developed from 31 orthotopic glioblastoma patient-derived xenografts (PDXs), treated with standard therapies, to predict benefit from radiotherapy (RT-GS), temozolomide (Chemo-GS), or the combination (ChemoRT-GS). Independent validation was performed in a heterogeneously treated clinical cohort of 502 glioblastoma patients with overall survival as the primary endpoint. Multivariate Cox analysis was used to adjust for confounding variables and evaluate interactions between signatures and treatment. Results PDX models recapitulated the clinical heterogeneity of glioblastoma patients. RT-GS, Chemo-GS, and ChemoRT-GS were correlated with benefit from treatment in the PDX models. In independent clinical validation, higher RT-GS scores were associated with increased survival only in patients receiving RT (P = 0.0031, hazard ratio [HR] = 0.78 [0.66–0.92]), higher Chemo-GS scores were associated with increased survival only in patients receiving chemotherapy (P < 0.0001, HR = 0.66 [0.55–0.8]), and higher ChemoRT-GS scores were associated with increased survival only in patients receiving ChemoRT (P = 0.0001, HR = 0.54 [0.4–0.74]). RT-GS and ChemoRT-GS had significant interactions with treatment on multivariate analysis (P = 0.0009 and 0.02, respectively), indicating that they are bona fide predictive biomarkers. Conclusions Using a novel PDX-driven methodology, we developed and validated 3 platform-independent molecular signatures that predict benefit from standard of care therapies for glioblastoma. These signatures may be useful to personalize glioblastoma treatment in the clinic and this approach may be a generalizable method to identify predictive biomarkers without resource-intensive randomized trials.

Abstract ctDNA analysis offers a non-invasive approach for monitoring response and resistance to treatment. Serial ctDNA testing during neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) may provide early indicators of emerging resistance and disease progression. In this study, we analyzed ctDNA from high-risk early breast cancer patients who received NAT and definitive surgery in the I-SPY 2 TRIAL (NCT01042379). We hypothesize that (1) assessment of ctDNA levels early in treatment will improve the performance of molecular and imaging-based predictors of pathologic complete response (pCR) to NAT; and (2) levels of ctDNA after NAT are associated with residual cancer burden and recurrence [distant recurrence free survival (DRFS)]. Methods: ctDNA analysis was performed in 84 high-risk stage II and III breast cancer patients randomized to neoadjuvant investigational agent (n=52), AKT inhibitor MK-2206 (M) in combination with paclitaxel (T) followed by doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (AC) (M+T-&gt;AC), or standard-of-care (T-&gt;AC) (n=32). HER2+ patients also received trastuzumab (H). Serial plasma was collected before NAT (T0), early treatment (3 weeks, T1), between regimens (12 weeks, T2), and after NAT prior to surgery (T3). Mutational profiles derived from pretreatment tumor biopsy and normal matched DNA whole exome sequencing were used to design personalized assays targeting 16 patient-specific somatic variants to detect ctDNA in serial plasma. Results: Of the 84 patients in this study, 43% were HR-/HER2- (TNBC), 35% HR+/HER2-, and 23% HER2+. In total, 74% (61 of 83), 35% (28 of 79), 14% (9 of 65), and 8% (5 of 61) were positive for ctDNA at timepoints T0, T1, T2, and T3, respectively. At T0, ctDNA positivity and levels (average number of mutant molecules detected per mL) were significantly associated with increased tumor burden (by clinical and MRI examination), more aggressive tumor biology (as reflected in higher Mammaprint scores and grade) and subtype (HER2+ and TNBC). Twenty-seven percent (27%) of the 84 patients achieved a pCR and all patients who were ctDNA-positive at T3 (n=5) did not achieve a pCR. Currently, data are being collected to: (1) assess the relationship of ctDNA and MRI imaging in predicting tumor response to therapy; (2) examine the relationship of ctDNA levels before and after NAT with 3-year DRFS and event-free survival (EFS). The results of these analyses will be presented at the SABCS 2018 meeting. Conclusions: Our study provides a platform to evaluate the clinical significance of ctDNA for serial monitoring of response to NAT. Accurate and early response prediction by highly sensitive ctDNA analysis can facilitate a timely and judicious change in treatment to improve patients' chances of achieving a pCR. Finally, personalized ctDNA testing may complement imaging and pathologic evaluation of tumor response to fine-tune pCR as a surrogate endpoint for improved DRFS and EFS.

Abstract Background Young women are more likely than older women to present with higher stage breast cancer (BC) and may benefit to a greater extent from downstaging with neoadjuvant systemic treatment (NST). Young age is also associated with greater likelihood of pathologic complete response (pCR). Using a large prospective cohort of young women with BC, we investigated response to neoadjuvant therapy, eligibility for breast conserving surgery (BCS) pre- and post-NST, and surgical treatment. Methods The Young Women's Breast Cancer Study (YWS) is a multi-center cohort of women diagnosed with BC at age ≤40, that enrolled 1302 patients from 2006 to 2016. Disease characteristics and treatment information were obtained through medical record and central pathology review. Surgical recommendation before and after NST, conversion from BCS borderline/ineligible to BCS eligible, surgery, documented reasons for choosing mastectomy (MTX) among BCS eligible women, and final pathologic response were independently reviewed. Results Among 1302 women enrolled in YWS, 801 (62%) presented with unilateral stage I-III breast cancer and 317(40%) received NST. Median age was 36 years old (22-40). Pre-NST, 85/317 (27%) were BCS eligible, 49 (15%) were borderline, and 169 (53%) were not eligible (16 inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), 88 large tumor size /cosmetic, 48 diffuse calcifications, and 83 multicentricity). Among the 218 patients who were BCS ineligible/borderline pre-NST, 82 (38%) became eligible for BCS after NST. 4 patients who were BCS eligible pre-NST became ineligible. Of all patients eligible for BCS post-NST (n=163), 80 (49%) attempted BCS, 74 (93%) of whom were successful, and 83 (51%) chose MTX. Reasons for choosing MTX included: patient preference (38/83 (46%)), BRCA or TP53 mutation (31 (37%)), family history (3 (4%)), unknown (11 (13%)). On final pathology, 75 (24%) patients had pCR. Among patients who achieved a pCR, 48 (64%) underwent MTX, fewer than half (21/48 (44%)) were for anatomic indications (IBC, large tumor at diagnosis, diffuse calcifications, multicentric disease). Conclusion While NST doubled the proportion of young women eligible for BCS, nearly half chose MTX regardless of response to NST, mostly for personal preference or high-risk preventative reasons. These data highlight that surgical decision making among young women with breast cancer is often driven by factors beyond extent of disease and clinical response to therapy.

Abstract Background: Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast has distinct histological and molecular variations compared to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), including absence of the adhesion protein E-cadherin. Recently, molecular subtypes within ILC have been described, with an analysis from The Cancer Genome Atlas (Ciriello et al) identifying three distinct groups within ILC based on gene expression—reactive-like, immune-related, and proliferative. In this study, we applied this 60-gene classifier to a locally advanced cohort of ILC and mixed ILC/IDC cases from patients screening for the I-SPY 2 neoadjuvant chemotherapy trial. Methods: The I-SPY 2 TRIAL is open to women with more locally advanced, clinically/molecularly (as assessed by MammaPrint) high risk breast cancer. HR+HER2- MammaPrint Low risk patients ineligible for I-SPY 2 randomization are invited to join a MP Low risk registry. 131 ILC and mixed ILC/IDC tumors from these cohorts (I-SPY 2: n=80; low risk registry: n=51) with pre-treatment Agilent microarrays were available for analysis. We used the Classification to Nearest Centroid technique to assign TCGA subtype to our cohort. We assessed association between TCGA subtype, clinical covariates and response to therapy using a chi-square test. We also evaluated the Euclidean distance between each sample and the three subtype centroids. In an exploratory analysis, we used consensus clustering based on the 1000 most varying genes within the HR+HER2- I-SPY ILC cases to generate new unsupervised groupings, and assessed the concordance with the TCGA reactive-like, immune-related and proliferative subtype assignments. Results: Of the 131 patients included, most (79%) were HR+HER2-, 11% were HR+HER2+, 2% were HR-HER2+ and 8% were HR-HER2- for a total of 10% HR-. 66 were pure ILC, while 65 were mixed ILC/IDC. Upon applying the TCGA 60-gene classifier, the distribution of ILC subtypes was as follows: 33 (25%) were classified as reactive-like, 50 (38%) were immune-related, and 48 (37%) were proliferative. 64% of triple negative cases were reactive-like; while the HR+HER2- and HER2+ cases were more likely to be in the proliferative or immune-related subtype (p=0.037). Among the 80 I-SPY 2 cases, the overall pathologic complete response rate was low (16%) but equivalent to the overall HR+HER2- I-SPY2 population (16%). This did not differ across the groups defined by the TCGA ILC subtypes (p=0.79). Interestingly, a subset of cases assigned as reactive-like and immune-related were of similar distance to the proliferative subtype centroid as patients assigned to the proliferative subtype. When we used consensus clustering to identify new subsets within our locally advanced ILC cohort, our unsupervised groupings had only 32% concordance with the TCGA ILC subtype assignments. Conclusion: The low concordance between our consensus cluster groupings and the TCGA subtype groupings may reflect underlying differences within a locally advanced cohort of ILC cases, like I-SPY, that may not be captured in the 60-gene classifier developed from the overall lower stage TCGA cohort. These findings suggest that considerable molecular heterogeneity exists in lobular cancers, which merits further investigation.

Abstract Background: The explosion in new treatment options targeting immune checkpoints, HER signaling, DNA repair deficiency, AKT, and other pathways calls for updated breast cancer subtypes beyond HR and HER2 status to predict which patients will respond to which treatments. Here we leverage the I-SPY 2 TRIAL biomarker program over the past 8 years across 10 treatment arms to elucidate a minimal set of biomarkers that may improve response prediction in a modern treatment context, and to investigate which new patient phenotypes are identified by these response-predictive biomarkers. Methods: 986 patients were considered in this analysis. Treatments included paclitaxel alone (or with trastuzumab (H) in HER2+) or combined with investigational agents: veliparib/carboplatin (VC); neratinib; MK2206; ganitumab; ganetespib; AMG386; TDM1/pertuzumab (P); H/P; and pembrolizumab (Pembro). 24 prospectively defined, mechanism-of-action and pathway-based expression and phospho-protein signatures/biomarkers assayed from pre-treatment biopsies were previously found to be predictive in a particular agent/arm in pre-specified analysis. Here we evaluate these biomarkers in all patients. We assessed association between each biomarker and response in the population as a whole and within each arm and HR/HER2 subtype using a logistic model. To identify optimal dichotomizing thresholds for select biomarkers, 2-fold cross-validation was repeated 500 times. Our analysis is exploratory and does not adjust for multiplicities. Results: Our initial set of 24 predictive biomarkers reflects DNA repair deficiency (n=2), immune activation (n=7), ER signaling (n=2), HER2 signaling (n=4), proliferation (n=2), phospho-activation of AKT/mTOR (n=2), and ANG/TIE2 (n=1) pathways, among others. Biomarkers reflecting similar biology are correlated and cluster together. We make use of this correlation structure to reduce the dimensionality of the biomarker set to five predictive signals: proliferation, DNA repair deficiency (DRD), immune-engaged (Immune+), luminal/ER (lum), and HER2-activated. These biomarkers, when dichotomized, identify patient groups with differential predicted sensitivities to I-SPY 2 agents and are present at different proportions within receptor subtypes. For instance, in the HER2- subset, Immune+/DRD+ patients are predicted sensitive to both VC and Pembro, and account for 39% of TN, but only 12% of HR+HER2-. On the other end of the spectrum, only 17% of TN are Immune-/DRD-, compared to the majority (56%) of HR+HER2-. There are also subsets of patients positive for only one marker. For the HER2+ subset, 67% are HER2-activated+, and 25% lum+; of these HER2-activated+ patients are more likely to be Immune+ (44%), vs 23% in lum+. HER2-activated+/Immune+ patients have higher predicted sensitivity to HER2-targeted agents than lum+ or Immune- patients. In all, these molecular phenotypes predict sensitivity to one or more I-SPY 2 investigational agents for 75% of the ˜ 1000 patients. Conclusion: Molecular phenotypes reflecting proliferation, immune engagement, HER2-activation, luminal/ER-signaling, and DNA repair deficiency may provide a roadmap to guide treatment prioritization for emerging therapeutics.

Abstract Background: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is administered to patients with operable breast cancer to downstage the tumor to allow for less extensive surgery and to provide prognostic information about drug efficacy and risk of disease recurrence. Patients who achieve a pathological complete response (pCR) following neoadjuvant treatment have a more favorable outcome than patients with residual invasive disease. Single-agent poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have clinical efficacy in BRCA-mutated breast cancer. Niraparib, a potent and selective PARP1/2 inhibitor, is approved for maintenance treatment of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer and has demonstrated strong antitumor activity in in vivo studies with BRCA1-mutant breast cancer. The objective of this study is to evaluate the antitumor activity of single-agent niraparib in the neoadjuvant treatment of patients with localized, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, BRCAmut breast cancer. Trial Design: This is an open-label, single-arm pilot study with a target enrollment of 20 evaluable patients. Eligible patients are those ≥18 years old with histologically-confirmed HER2-negative localized breast cancer and either a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation (germline or somatic) and no prior anti-cancer therapies for the current malignancy. Patients will receive 200 mg of oral niraparib once daily for 2 months, after which they may either proceed directly to surgery or receive chemotherapy at the discretion of the physician. The primary endpoint is tumor response rate based on the change in tumor volume as measured by breast MRI after 2 months of treatment with niraparib; a response is defined as ≥30% reduction of tumor volume from baseline. Secondary endpoints include pCR rate, tumor response rate based on the change in tumor volume as measured by breast ultrasound, and safety and tolerability. Data will be summarized in a descriptive nature by frequency distributions (number and percentage of patients) for categorical variables and by the mean, median, and standard deviation for continuous variables. Tumor response rate will be tabulated together with its 95% binomial exact confidence interval. Funding: TESARO, Inc., Waltham, MA, USA sponsored the study.

Abstract Background: This analysis aimed to determine if associations of prediagnostic mammographic percent breast density, absolute dense area, and absolute non-dense area and risk of breast cancer vary according to the subsequent breast tumors biomarker status. Methods: We included 1,154 postmenopausal women diagnosed with breast cancer between June 1, 1989, and June 30, 2004, and 2,078 matched controls from the Nurses' Health Study I and II. Percent breast density, absolute dense and non-dense areas were estimated from digitized film mammograms using computer assisted thresholding techniques. Density measures were modeled as quartiles. Information on estrogen receptor (ESR1 [ER]), progesterone receptor (PGR [PR]), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2 [HER2]) status was obtained from pathology reports and medical records, and if missing, from immunostains performed on paraffin sections of tumor tissue microarrays (TMAs). Other biomarkers assessed on TMAs were androgen receptor (AR), cytokines 5/6 (KRT5/KRT6 [CK5/6]), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFA [VEGF]), and cyclooxygenase 2 (PTGS2 [COX2]). Information on breast cancer risk factors was obtained prospectively from biennial questionnaires before the date of cancer diagnosis for cases and matched controls. Polychotomous logistic regression was used to assess associations of the three breast density measures with tumor subtypes based on the status of selected tissue markers. Results: Breast cancer risk was positively associated with percent density and absolute dense area and inversely associated with absolute non-dense area (p for trend&lt;0.0001 for all). The associations of percent density with breast cancer risk did not statistically significantly differ by the status of any of the markers. However, we found stronger positive associations for absolute dense area and KRT5/KRT6- and EGFR- tumors as compared to respective marker-positive tumors (4th vs. 1st quartile: OR=2.99 for KRT5/KRT6- vs. OR=0.92 for KRT5/KRT6+ tumors, p-heterogeneity &lt;0.001; OR=3.06 for EGFR- vs. OR=1.08 for EGFR+ tumors, p-heterogeneity=0.001). Stronger inverse associations of absolute non-dense area with breast cancer risk were found for ESR1- as compared to ESR1+ tumors, and for AR+, KRT5/KRT6+, and EGFR+ tumors as compared to respective marker-negative tumors (4th vs. 1st quartile: OR=0.21 for ESR1- vs. OR=0.59 for ESR1+ tumors, p-heterogeneity &lt;0.0001; OR=0.22 for AR+ vs. OR=0.42 for AR- tumors, p-heterogeneity=0.04; OR=0.21 for KRT5/KRT6+ vs. OR=1.14 for KRT5/KRT6- tumors, p-heterogeneity&lt;0.01; OR=0.37 for EGFR+ vs. OR=1.11 for EGFR- tumors, p-heterogeneity&lt;0.01). There were no differences in associations of the density measures with breast cancer by status of other markers evaluated. Conclusions: The findings suggest that some mammographic density measures are differentially associated with the risk of subsequent breast tumor subtypes.
