    Role of systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy in delayed debulking surgery after six neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycles for high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma
    (2021) LOPES, Andre; GENTA, Maria L. N. D.; MIRANDA, Vanessa da Costa; ARANHA, Andrea; LOPEZ, Rossana V. M.; PIATO, Dariane S. A. M.; ANTON, Cristina; CARVALHO, Filomena M.; DIZ, Maria del Pilar Esteves; CARVALHO, Jesus P.
    Introduction We analyzed the role of systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy in delayed debulking surgery after six neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) cycles for advanced high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. Materials and Methods We retrospectively reviewed patients with advanced ovarian carcinoma who underwent NACT with carboplatin-paclitaxel between 2008 and 2016. Patients were included only if they had FIGO IIIC-IVB high-grade serous carcinoma with clinically negative lymph nodes after six NACT cycles (carboplatin-paclitaxel) and underwent complete or near complete cytoreduction. Patients with partial lymphadenectomy or bulky nodes were excluded. Patients who underwent systematic pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomy and those who did not undergo lymph node dissection were compared. Progression-free and overall survivals were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results Totally, 132 patients with FIGO IIIC-IVB epithelial ovarian carcinoma were surgically treated after NACT. Sixty patients were included (39 and 21 in the lymphadenectomy and nonlymphadenectomy group, respectively); 40% had suspicious lymph nodes before NACT. Patient characteristics, blood transfusion numbers, and complication incidence were similar between the groups. In the lymphadenectomy group, 12 patients (30.8%) had histologically positive lymph nodes and the surgical time was longer (229 vs. 164 min). The median overall survival in the lymphadenectomy and nonlymphadenectomy groups, respectively, was 56.7 (95% CI 43.4-70.1) and 61.2 (21.4-101.0) months (p = 0.934); the corresponding disease-free survival was 8.1 (6.2-10.1) and 8.3 (5.1-11.6) months (p = 0.878). Six patients exclusively presented with lymph node recurrence. Conclusions Systematic lymphadenectomy after six NACT cycles may have no influence on survival.

    Dysregulation of Transcription Factor Networks Unveils Different Pathways in Human Papillomavirus 16-Positive Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Adenocarcinoma of the Uterine Cervix
    (2021) BISPO, Saloe; FARIAS, Ticiana D. J.; ARAUJO-SOUZA, Patricia Savio de; CINTRA, Ricardo; SANTOS, Hellen Geremias dos; JORGE, Natasha Andressa Nogueira; CASTRO, Mauro Antonio Alves; WAJNBERG, Gabriel; SCHERER, Nicole de Miranda; GENTA, Maria Luiza Nogueira Dias; CARVALHO, Jesus Paula; VILLA, Luisa Lina; SICHERO, Laura; PASSETTI, Fabio
    Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (ADC) are the most common histological types of cervical cancer (CC). The worse prognosis of ADC cases highlights the need for better molecular characterization regarding differences between these CC types. RNA-Seq analysis of seven SCC and three ADC human papillomavirus 16-positive samples and the comparison with public data from non-tumoral human papillomavirus-negative cervical tissue samples revealed pathways exclusive to each histological type, such as the epithelial maintenance in SCC and the maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) pathway in ADC. The transcriptional regulatory network analysis of cervical SCC samples unveiled a set of six transcription factor (TF) genes with the potential to positively regulate long non-coding RNA genes DSG1-AS1, CALML3-AS1, IGFL2-AS1, and TINCR. Additional analysis revealed a set of MODY TFs regulated in the sequence predicted to be repressed by miR-96-5p or miR-28-3p in ADC. These microRNAs were previously described to target LINC02381, which was predicted to be positively regulated by two MODY TFs upregulated in cervical ADC. Therefore, we hypothesize LINC02381 might act by decreasing the levels of miR-96-5p and miR-28-3p, promoting the MODY activation in cervical ADC. The novel TF networks here described should be explored for the development of more efficient diagnostic tools.
