    Purpose: This study aimed to analyze prognostic factors for survival and the reliability and the effectiveness of eribulin therapy in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. Methods: A total of 80 patients treated with eribulin in 12 medical oncology centers in Turkey between 2013-2017 were retrospectively evaluated. Sixteen potential prognostic variables were assessed for analysis. Results: The patients had received a median of 5 prior chemotherapy regimens and a median of 3 eribulin cycles for MBC. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.5 months (95% Cl: 4.1-7.8) and median overall survival (OS) was 11 months (95 % Cl: 6-15). Multivariate analysis showed that eribulin treatment line was shown to have independent prognostic significance for PFS. PFS difference was demostrated in patients who received 3 chemotherapy lines for advanced disease compared to those who had more than 3 chemotherapy lines [median PFS; 3 lines: 8.6 months (6.2-11) and >3 lines: 4.6 months (3.7-4.6) p=0.00]. The clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 52.5 and 35% in patients treated with three lines and with >3 previous chemotherapeutic regimens. Most common toxicities were neutropenia (62.5%), fatigue (52.5%), alopecia (50%) and nausea (37.5%). Conclusions: Eribulin treatment line was identified as indepedent prognostic factor for PFS in MBC patients.

    Purpose: Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare, low-grade neoplasm with excellent prognosis. In this study, we evaluated clinicopathological characteristics of patients diagnosed with SPN retrospectively. Methods: This is a retrospective study intended to characterize patients with the diagnosis of SPN between 2005 and 2015. Clinicopathological features, recurrence rate, and overall survival of 28 patients were recorded. Malignant SPN criteria were defined as the presence of distant metastasis (developed at diagnosis or during follow up) or lymph node involvement. Results: The mean age at diagnosis was 42 (range: 17-41). Among patients, 82% (n = 23) were female and 17.9% (n = 5) were male. The mean size of tumor was 5.81 cm (range: 2-15). The mean follow up period was 55.6 months, 1-year survival was 96.5% and 5-year survival rate was 88%. A total of 25 patients were alive at the end of follow-up period and 3 of the patients became exitus due to disease. Two patients had a metastatic presentation in livers at the diagnosis and metastasis developed in 3 patients during follow-up (liver of 1 patient, peritoneum in 1 patient and liver and peritoneum in 1 patient). The reason of admission was headache in 68% patients. The type of operation was frequently subtotal pancreatectomy (n = 11, 39.3%) and distal pancreatectomy (n = 10, 35.7%). Tumors were located frequently in body and tail regions (n = 18, 64.3%) and the number of patients with malignant criteria was 6 (21.4%). Although the mean age of malignant patients was significantly higher than benign patients (P = 0.046), there was no significant difference between 2 groups in terms of gender, tumor size, capsule invasion, perineural invasion, vascular invasion, and margin status. Conclusion: SPN is a rarely seen tumor with low malignity potential. Surgical resection provides long-term survival rate even in local invasion or metastasis conditions. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.

    Purpose In advanced breast cancer, endocrine therapy is preferred in the absence of visceral crisis. Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDKi) are the gold standards. The selection of subsequent treatments after CDKi treatment is still controversial, and the efficacy of everolimus (EVE) combinations is unknown. In this study, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of EVE after CDKi administration in real-life experiences. Method The study received data from 208 patients from 26 cancer centers. Demographic and histologic features, diagnosis, progression, last visit dates, and toxicities were recorded. This study was a retrospective case series. Results One hundred and seven patients received palbociclib, while 101 patients received ribociclib as a CDKi. The overall response and disease control rates of EVE combinations were 60% and 88%, respectively. In univariate analysis, the absence of liver metastasis, age > 40 years, better type of response, and immediate treatment after CDKi were related to increased progression-free survival. Liver metastasis and response type were significantly associated with overall survival. In the multivariate analysis, response remained significant in terms of progression-free survival, while response type, liver metastatic disease, and hematologic toxicity were prognostic in terms of overall survival. Conclusion This study provides evidence of the benefits of EVE combinations after CDKi treatment. EVE combinations may be more appropriate for patients with non-liver metastasis, and the first treatment response shows the benefit of treatment. In addition, immediate treatment after CDKi treatment is more beneficial than later lines of treatment.
