Second-line treatments for advanced gastric cancer: Interpreting outcomes by network meta-analysis

AIM: To study the effectiveness of second-linetreatments for advancer gastric cancer by application of Bayesian network meta-analysis.METHODS: Our search covered the literature up to February 2015. The following 6 treatments were evaluated:(1) irinotecan(camptothecins);(2) paclitaxel(taxanes class);(3) docetaxel(taxanes);(4) everolimus(mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors);(5) ramucirumab(vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 inhibitors);(6) ramucirumab + paclitaxel. Our methodology was based on standard models of Bayesian network meta-analysis. The reference treatment was best supportive care(BSC). The endpoint was overall survival. Median survival was the outcome measure along with 95% credible intervals. RESULTS: Our search identified a total of 7 randomized controlled trials. These trials included 2298 patients(in 15 treatment arms) in whom a total of 6 active treatments were evaluated as well as BSC. There were 21 head-to-head comparisons(6 direct, 15 indirect). The difference in survival between each of two active treatments(paclitaxel and ramucirumab + paclitaxel) vs BSC was statistically significant, while the other 4 showed no statistical difference. In the 6 head-to-head comparisons between active treatments, no significant survival difference was demonstrated. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that both paclitaxel monotherapy and ramucirumab + paclitaxel determine a significant prolongation in survival as compared with BSC.

Adaptive broadband beamformer for nonuniform linear array based on second order cone programming

Adaptive broadband beamforraing is a key issue in array applications. The adaptive broadband beamformer with tapped delay line （TDL） structure for nonuniform linear array （NLA） is designed according to the rule of minimizing the beamformer＇s output power while keeping the distortionless response （DR） in the direction of desired signal and keeping the constant beamwidth （CB） with the prescribed sidelobe level over the whole operating band. This kind of beamforming problem can be solved with the interior-point method after being converted to the form of standard second order cone programming （SOCP）. The computer simulations are presented which illustrate the effectiveness of our beamformer.

Second-line treatment of metastatic gastric cancer:Current options and future directions

Gastric cancer remains one among the leading causes of cancer-related deaths, regardless of its decreasing incidence and newly available treatment options. Most patients present at an advanced stage and are treated with upfront systemic chemotherapy. Those patients receiving first-line therapy may initially respond to treatment, but many of them relapse over time. In such condition, second-line treatment for disease progression remains the only available option. Although there exists no standard approach in the second-line setting, several phase Ⅲ trials have shown modest survival benefit in patients receiving irinotecan, taxane and ramucirumab over the best supportive care or active agents. This review analyzes the currently available treatment regimens and future directions of research in the second-line setting for metastatic gastric cancer with the best available evidence. Additionally, the prognostic factors that influence patient survival in those receiving second-line therapy are discussed.

Translating new data to the daily practice in second line treatment of renal cell carcinoma:The role of tumor growth rate

The therapeutic options for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma(mRCC) have completely changed during the last ten years. With the sequential use of targeted therapies, median overall survival has increased in daily practice and now it is not uncommon to see patients surviving kidney cancer for more than four to five years. Once treatment fails with the first line targeted therapy, head to head comparisons have shown that cabozantinib, nivolumab and the combination of lenvatinib plus everolimus are more effective than everolimus alone and that axitinib is more active than sorafenib. Unfortunately, it is very unlikely that we will ever have prospective data comparing the activity of axitinib, cabozantinib, lenvatinib or nivolumab. It is frustrating to observe the lack of biomarkers that we have in this field, thus there is no firm recommendation about the optimal sequence of treatment in the second line. In the absence of reliable biomarkers, there are several clinical endpoints that can help physicians to make decisions for an individual patient, such as the tumor burden, the expected response rate and the time to achieve the response to each agent, the prior response to the agent administered, the toxicity profile of the different compounds and patient preference. Here, we propose the introduction of the tumor-growth rate(TGR) during first-line treatment as a new tool to be used to select the second line strategy in m RCC. The rapidness of TGR before the onset of the treatment reflects the variability between patients in terms of tumor growth kinetics and it could be a surrogate marker of tumor aggressiveness that may guide treatment decisions.

Metastatic gastric cancer treatment: Second line and beyond

Advanced gastric cancer(a GC), not amenable to curative surgery, is still a burdensome illness tormenting afflicted patients and their healthcare providers. Whereas combination chemotherapy has been shown to improve survival and tumor related symptoms in the frontline setting, second-line therapy(SLT) is subject to much debate in the scientific community, mainly because of the debilitating effects of GC, which would impede the administration of cytotoxic therapy. Recent data has provided sufficient evidence for the safe use of SLT in patients with an adequate performance status. Taxanes, Irinotecan and even some Fluoropyrimidine analogs were found to provide a survival advantage in this subset of patients. Most importantly, quality of life measures were also improved through the use of adequate therapy. Even more pertinent were the findings involving antiangiogenic agents, which would add measurable improvements without significantly jeopardizing the patients' well-being. Further lines of therapy are cause for much more debate nowadays, but specific targeted agents have shown considerable promise in this context. We herein review noteworthy published data involving the use of additional lines of the therapy after failure of standard frontline therapies in patients with a GC.

Fourteen- vs seven-day bismuth-based quadruple therapy for second-line Helicobacter pylori eradication

AIM: To compare the efficacy of 14- and 7-d bismuthbased quadruple therapies as second-line eradication treatment for Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection.METHODS: Between 2004 and 2014,the medical records of 790 patients who had experienced failure of first-line proton pump inhibitor(PPI)-based eradication therapy and were then treated with bismuth-based quadruple therapy were retrospectively reviewed.Those who received bismuth-based quadruple therapy [PPI,bismuth,metronidazole,and tetracycline(PBMT)] for either 7 d or 14 d were assigned to a PBMT-7 group(n = 543) or a PBMT-14 group(n = 247),respectively.The eradication rates for both groups were determined by intention-to-treat(ITT) and per-protocol(PP) analyses.ITT analysis compared the treatment groups as originally allocated while the PP analysis including only those patients who had completed the treatment as originally allocated.Successful eradication therapy for H.pylori infection was defined as a negative 13C-urea breath test 4 wk after the end of eradication treatment.RESULTS: The overall ITT eradication rate was 69.1%(546/790).Final ITT eradication rates were 67.4%(366/543; 95%CI: 63.1%-71.7%) in the PBMT-7 group and 72.8%(180/247; 95%CI: 67.4%-78.2%) in the PBMT-14 group(P = 0.028).The overall PP eradication rate was 80.0%(546/682),and the final PP eradication rates were 78.2%(366/468; 95%CI: 72.1%-84.0%) in the PBMT-7 group and 84.1%(180/214; 95%CI: 76.8%-90.8%) in the PBMT-14 group(P = 0.009).The H.pylori eradication rates in the PBMT-14 group weresignificantly higher than in the PBMT-7 group according to both ITT(P = 0.028) and PP analysis(P = 0.009).Compliance was similar in both groups(PBMT-7 group: 97.9%; PBMT-14 group: 96.4%).Adverse event rates were 10.7%(51/478) and 17.1%(38/222) in the PBMT-7 and PBMT-14 groups,respectively(P = 0.487).CONCLUSION: The 14-d bismuth-based quadruple therapy is a significantly more effective second-line eradication treatment for H.pylori infection than the 7-d alternative.

Efficacy of 14-d vs 7-d moxifloxacin-based triple regimens for second-line Helicobacter pylori eradication

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of the 14-d moxifloxacinbased triple therapy for the second-line eradication of Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection.METHODS: Between 2011 and 2013, we conducted a retrospective review of the medical records of 160 patients who had experienced failure of their first-line proton pump inhibitor-based eradication therapy and subsequently received the moxifloxacin-based triple therapy as a second-line eradication treatment regimen. The patients who were treated with the moxifloxacinbased triple therapy(oral 20 mg rabeprazole b.i.d., 1000 mg amoxicillin b.i.d., and 400 mg moxifloxacin q.d.) for 7 d were assigned to the RAM-7 group(n = 79) while those who took them for 14 days were assigned to RAM-14 group(n = 81). The eradication rates for both groups were determined by intentionto-treat(ITT) and per-protocol(PP) analyses. ITT analysis compared the treatment groups as originally allocated while the PP analysis including only those patients who had completed the treatment as originally allocated. Successful eradication therapy for H. pylori infection was defined as the documentation of a negative 13C-urea breath test 4 wk after the end of the eradication treatment.RESULTS: The overall ITT eradication rate was 76.2%(122/160). The final ITT eradication rates were 70.8%(56/79; 95%CI: 63.3%-77.1%) in the RAM-7 group and 81.4%(66/81; 95%CI: 74.6%-88.3%) in the RAM-14 group(P = 0.034). The overall PP eradication rate was 84.1%(122/145), and the final PP eradication rates were 77.7%(56/72; 95%CI: 70.2%-85.3%) in the RAM-7 group and 90.4%(66/73; 95%CI: 82.8%-98.1%) in the RAM-14 group(P = 0.017). The H. pylori-eradication rates in the RAM-14 group were significantly higher compared with that of the RAM-7 group according to both the ITT(P = 0.034) and the PP analyses(P = 0.017). Both groups exhibited good treatment compliance(RAM-7/RAM-14 group: 100%/100%). The adverse event rates were19.4%(14/72)and 20.5%(15/73)in the RAM-7 and RAM-14 groups,respectively(P=0.441).Adverse events occurred in 14 of the 72 patients(19.4)in the RAM-7 group and in 15 of the 73 patients(20.5)in the RAM-14 group.No statistically significant differences(P=0.441)were observed.CONCLUSION:The 14-d moxifloxacin-based triple therapy is a significantly more effective secondline eradication treatment as compared to the 7-d alternative for H.pylori infection in South Korea.

Oral chemotherapy for second-line treatment in patients with gemcitabine-refractory advanced pancreatic cancer

BACKGROUND There is no standard therapy for second-line treatment of gemcitabine-refractory pancreatic cancer patients with poor performance status.A combination of chemotherapy drugs 5-fluorouracil(5-FU),leucovorin,irinotecan,and oxaliplatin(FOLFIRINOX)or 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin plus nanoliposomal irinotecan can be considered as second-line treatment for such patients;however,due to toxicity,none of the regimens are recommended for patients with poor performance.Capecitabine or S-1 has relatively low toxicity and can be considered a treatment option for gemcitabine-refractory pancreatic cancer.AIM To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of oral chemotherapy as second-line treatment in patients with pancreatic cancer.METHODS Patients who had progressive disease after first-line gemcitabine-based chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed between January 2011 and December 2018.They were treated with capecitabine or S-1 as the second-line treatment.Capecitabine was administered as a 2500 mg/m2 divided dose on days 1-14,followed by a 1-wk rest.S-1 was taken orally based on the patient’s body surface area for 28 d,followed by 2-wk of rest.Progression-free survival and overall survival were used to compare efficacy of capecitabine and S-1.RESULTS Of the 81 patients,41 were treated with capecitabine and 40 with S-1.The median time to treatment failure in both groups was 1.5 mo(P=0.425).The objective response rate was similar in the two groups:9.8%with capecitabine and 2.5%with S-1(P=0.359).Median progression-free survival was longer in the S-1 group than in the capecitabine group(S-12.7 mo,capecitabine 2.0 mo,P=0.003).There was no significant difference in the median overall survival between the capecitabine and S-1 groups(4.3 mo vs 5.0 mo,P=0.092).Grade 3 or 4 hand-foot syndrome was significantly more common in the capecitabine group than in the S-1 group(14.6%vs 0%,P=0.026).CONCLUSION Capecitabine or S-1 can be used as a second-line treatment for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer with poor performance status after progression to a gemcitabine-based regimen.

Study protocol of the Asian XELIRI ProjecT(AXEPT):a multinational,randomized,non-inferiority,phase Ⅲ trial of second-line chemotherapy for metastatic colorectal cancer, comparing the eicacy and safety of XELIRI with or without bevacizumab versus FOLFIRI w

Background: Capecitabine and irinotecan combination therapy(XELIRI) has been examined at various dose levels to treat metastatic colorectal cancer(m CRC). Recently, in the Association of Medical Oncology of the German Cancer Society(AIO) 0604 trial, tri?weekly XELIRI plus bevacizumab, with reduced doses of irinotecan(200 mg/m^2 on day 1) and capecitabine(1600 mg/m^2 on days 1–14), repeated every 3 weeks, has shown favorable tolerability and eicacy which were comparable to those of capecitabine and oxaliplatin(XELOX) plus bevacizumab. The doses of capecit?abine and irinotecan in the AIO trial are considered optimal. In a phase I/II study, XELIRI plus bevacizumab(BIX) as second?line chemotherapy was well tolerated and had promising eicacy in Japanese patients.Methods: The Asian XELIRI Projec T(AXEPT) is an East Asian collaborative, open?labelled, randomized, phase Ⅲ clinical trial which was designed to demonstrate the non?inferiority of XELIRI with or without bevacizumab versus standard FOLFIRI(5?fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan combination) with or without bevacizumab as second?line chemo?therapy for patients with m CRC. Patients with 20 years of age or older, histologically conirmed m CRC, Eastern Coop?erative Oncology Group performance status 0–2, adequate organ function, and disease progression or intolerance of the irst?line regimen will be eligible. Patients will be randomized(1:1) to receive standard FOLFIRI with or with?out bevacizumab(5 mg/kg on day 1), repeated every 2 weeks(FOLIRI arm) or XELIRI with or without bevacizumab(7.5 mg/kg on day 1), repeated every 3 weeks(XELIRI arm). A total of 464 events were estimated as necessary to show non?inferiority with a power of 80% at a one?sided α of 0.025, requiring a target sample size of 600 patients. The 95% conidence interval(CI) upper limit of the hazard ratio was pre?speciied as less than 1.3.Conclusion: The Asian XELIRI Projec T is a multinational phase III trial being conducted to provide evidence for XELIRI with or without bevacizumab as a second?line treatment option of mCRC.

Raltitrexed + irinotecan as second-line chemotherapy in elderly patients with advanced colorectal cancer

Aims and Background: Irinotecan is a standard option for relapsed/refractory advanced colo- rectal cancer. Combination with raltitrexed and irinotecan at lower than MTD doses should preserve disease stabilisation while decreasing toxicity. Patients and Methods: From January 2004 to April 2009, we analyzed, retrospectively, our data on irinotecan + raltitrexed, fixed doses, as a second-line chemotherapy in elderly pa- tients (>70 years) with advanced colorectal can- cer after failure of oxaliplatin based chemothera- py twenty-three patients were evaluated. Iri- notecan 350 mg + raltitrexed 2.6 mg were given every 3 weeks. Tumo r measurements were ob- tained after every third course of therapy. Toxic- ity was assessed weekly using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria, ver- sion 2. Results: The median number of treatment courses received per patient was 4 (range, 1 - 8). All pa-tients were assessable for toxicity and 21 for response. The most frequently observed severetoxicities were diarrhea (grade 2, 13%) No cases of significant neutropenia occurred. Ob- jective partial responses were observed in 3 pa- tients (13%). An additional 10 patients (43%) had stable disease as their best response. To date, 12 patients have progressed with a median time- to-progression of 4.3 months and a median sur- vival of 8.3 months. Conclusions: A three weekly irinotecan + raltitrexed administration can indu- ce tumor control in elderly patients with advanc- ed colorectalcancer that has progressed during or shortly after oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. The diarrhea by irinotecan, seems mitigated by coad-ministration of a smaller dose of

The Effect of the First order Responses of Mooring Line on the Second order Mooring Line Damping

In this paper we investigated the effect of the first order responses of mooring line on the second order mooring line damping.In the study of the slow oscillating of a moored floating structure by perturbation method in frequency domain,the second order equations of the mooring line are divided into non homogeneous and homogeneous equations.The solutions are related to the first order responses of mooring line and second order floating structure oscillation respectively.In order to find the effect of the first order responses of mooring line,the second order mooring line tension and damping were determined by solving the non homogeneous equation and homogeneous equation.From the results,we found,although the second order mooring line tension obtained from the non homogenous equation is quite small compared with the total second order mooring line tension,the damping contributed from both of them are in the same order in quantity.So,in predicting the second order mooring line damping,the effect of the solution related to the non homogeneous equation can not be omitted.

Adverse Drug Reactions in Patients on Second Line Anti-Tubercular Drugs for Drug Resistant Tuberculosis in Rural Tertiary Care Hospital in North India

Introduction: The adverse drug events (ADEs) to second-line anti-TB drugs are one of the major reasons for the patients default on treatment. A general awareness of various adverse drug events (ADE) and their management is essential for the effective management of tuberculosis. Identification of adverse drug reaction profile of patients can be useful for the early detection, management and prevention of adverse drug events. Material and methods: It was a prospective observational study conducted after approved Institutional Ethics Committee. A total of 104 drug resistant tuberculosis patients registered from 1st November 2012 to 31st October 2013 started with second line anti-tubercular drugs under PMDT-RNCP after taking written informed consent. Adverse drug reaction during treatment recorded and assessed by Hart wig and WHO scale. Results: 87% patients experienced adverse drug reactions. Total 346 ADR were reported. Most common were gastritis (65%) and arthralgia (60.6%), others were nausea (35.6%), vomiting (32.7%), hyperuricemia (30.8%), giddiness (27%), anorexia (17.3), generalized weakness (15.4), insomnia (10.6%), psychosis (8.6%), hearing impairment (6.7%), hypersensitivity reaction (5.8%), peripheral neuropathy (4.8%), visual disturbance (3.8%), nephrotoxicity (2.9%), forgetfulness (2.9%), gynaecomastia (1.9%), hypothyroidism (1%), seizure (1%), and thrombocytopenia (1%). Conclusion: Majority of patients experienced wide range adverse drug reactions. Most of patients faced the problem within 2 - 3 months of initiation of treatment and managed by symptomatic. Early identification, prompt management and standardized reporting adverse drug reactions at all the level of healthcare are needed.

Efficacy and Tolerability of Second-Line Metronidazole Triple Therapy Using Vonoprazan for Helicobacter pylori Eradication in Japan—Comparative Study: Vonoprazan vs. Proton Pump Inhibitors

Aim: To investigate the efficacy and tolerability of second-line metronidazole triple therapy with vonoprazan (VPZ) for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients who experienced clarithromycin triple therapy failure and were treated with second-line (20 mg VPZ (n = 274)/30 mg lansoprazole (n = 323) or 10 mg rabeprazole (n = 141) twice daily, 750 mg amoxicillin twice daily, 250 mg metronidazole twice daily for 7 days) eradication therapies. Successful eradication rates were compared between two groups: those receiving VPZ and those receiving a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). Adverse events were also investigated. Results: Successful second-line eradication rates according to ITT analysis and PP analysis, respectively, were 79.9% and 92.4% for VPZ therapy and 83.6% and 93.3% for PPI therapy. There were no significant differences between treatment groups. The eradication rates in those who had received first-line VPZ therapy previously according to ITT and PP analysis were 75.2% and 88.1%, respectively;in contrast, values were 82.5% and 95.4%, respectively, for those who had received first-line PPI therapy previously. In second-line therapy, the overall adverse event rate for VPZ therapy was the same as for PPI therapy. Conclusions: The efficacy and tolerability of metronidazole-containing second-line triple therapy with VPZ or a PPI were equivalent.

Safety and Efficacy of Racotumomab-Alum Vaccine as Second-Line Therapy for Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Despite extensive clinical research in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), overall survival is still poor. Racotumomab-alum is an anti-idiotypic cancer vaccine that targets NeuGcGM3 tumor associated ganglioside. The aim of this study was to evaluate safety and efficacy of racotumomab-alum in advanced NSCLC patients with progressive disease. This expanded access program included 86 histologically confirmed NSCLC patients, 18 years or older age, with advanced disease and without therapeutic option, with ECOG performance status ≤3, adequate organ functions and signed informed consent. The primary endpoint was overall survival and toxicity was measure assessed treatment-related toxicity according CTCAEv3. The study was approved by ethical review boards of participant institutions. Racotumomab-alum treatment consisted in 5 biweekly intradermal doses (1 mg/mL) during the induction phase of treatment (2 months). The maintenance phase consisted in monthly re-immunizations until unacceptable toxicity or PS worsening. The median overall survival time of all patients treated with racotumomab-alum was 8.96 months. The survival rates at 12 and 24 months were 42.8% and 28.0%, respectively. Patients that completed the induction phase of treatment (five doses or more) reached a median OS of 12.1 months. The most common adverse events were injection site reaction, bone pain, cough and asthenia. Racotumomab-alum cancer vaccine could be considered an effective and safe treatment option as second-line therapy for advanced NSCLC. Further clinical studies should be conducted to confirm this result.

Triplet chemotherapy with paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and cisplatin as second-line therapy for advanced urothelial carcinoma

Background: Methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and cisplatin regimen, and gemcitabine and cisplatin regimen are widely used for advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinomas (UCs). However, a standard treatment for patients who fail these firstline chemotherapies is unavailable. We examined the efficacy and safety of secondline paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and cisplatin (PCG) chemotherapy in Japanese patients. Methods: Between 2004 and 2010, 25 patients with metastatic UCs who failed to respond to platinumbased regimens were treated with PCG. They received intravenous paclitaxel (60 mg/m2) and gemcitabine (1000 mg/m2) on days 1 and 8, and cisplatin (70 mg/m2) on day 2 of every 21 day course. We retrospectively collected patients’ clinical and pathological data and evaluated adverse effects and survivals. Results: Patients underwent 95 PCG cycles in all (average, 3.8 cycles per patient). One patient (4%) achieved complete response, 5 (20%) showed partial response, 8 (42%) had disease stabilization, and 5 (26%) had disease progression. Median overall survival was 8.5 months. Neutropenia and thrombocytopenia of grade ≥ 3 were observed in 68% and 56% of patients, respectively. No treatment related death occurred. Multivariate analysis revealed that hemoglobin levels 1.73 m2) were significant risk factors for overall survival. Conclusion: PCG chemotherapy in the secondline setting potentially contributed to good prognosis in selected patients with relatively significant but tolerable toxicity.

沅水桃源枢纽左岸船闸桥区船模通航条件试验研究

沅江大桥通航环境十分复杂,原大桥通航孔布置不合理,严重制约了桃源枢纽二线船闸扩建工程建设。针对桥区通航条件差的问题,对其左岸桥梁通航孔布置方案进行船模试验研究,采用定床河工模型和小尺度船模试验相结合,并从船模试验的舵角、漂角和航速等航行参数进行综合分析,结果表明:在相同通航总净宽的情况下,双孔双向要优于双孔单向;桥梁通航孔右移可降低一线船闸船舶下行过桥难度,但会增加二线船闸船舶上行过桥的难度。建议左岸新建桥梁通航孔净宽应不小于220 m,桥位相比于现状桥梁右移约75 m,采用双孔双向,两线船闸分槽航行的方式。
