Because of the advancing knowledge of cancer's molecular biology, these trials offer an important platform for the development of new agents and also for patient treatment. Therefore, comprehension of their peculiar terminology and methodology are increasingly important. Our objectives were to review the fundamental concepts of phase I designs and to critically contextualise this type of study as a therapeutic option for patients with refractory cancer.
- Safety and Effectiveness of Chemotherapy for Metastatic Esophageal Cancer in a Community Hospital in Brazil(2019) VICTOR, Carolina Ribeiro; FUJIKI, Femanda Kaori; TAKEDA, Flavio Roberto; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo Gehm; CASTRIA, Tiago Biachi dePURPOSE Despite epidemiologic and molecular differences between esophageal and stomach cancers, most published studies have included patients with either disease in a metastatic scenario. We evaluated the safety and effectiveness of chemotherapy in patients with metastatic esophageal cancer in the community setting. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients with synchronous metastatic esophageal cancer treated at a public hospital between 2008 and 2016. Patients were grouped according to a prescribed chemotherapy protocol: platinum and taxane (group A); platinum and irinotecan (group B); platinum and fluoropyrimidine (group C); and without platinum (group D). RESULTS Of the 1,789 patients with esophageal cancer treated, we included 397 with metastatic disease at presentation. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequent histology (78.8%). Median overall survival (OS) was 7 months (95% CI, 6.15 to 7.85 months). Chemotherapy was administered to 285 patients, who reached a median OS of 9.0 months (95% CI, 8.0 to 9.9 months); for 112 patients who did not receive treatment, median OS was 3 months (95% CI, 2.3 to 3.7 months; P < .001). The most used combination was platinum plus irinotecan (A; 55.5%). Disease control with in groups A, B, C, and D was 39.2%, 30.1%, 53% and 14.3%, respectively. Patients in group C reached a median OS of 17 months (95% CI, 13.1 to 20.8 months; P = .034). No differences were observed in median OS obtained with other protocols (9 months). The toxicity profile was different according to chemotherapy, with more severe events (hematologic, diarrhea, and number of days hospitalized) occurring in group B. CONCLUSION Platinum plus paclitaxel or platinum plus irinotecan provided similar OS in community patients, although patients receiving irinotecan experienced more severe events. In the adenocarcinoma population, a fluoropyrimidine plus platinum-based regimen, although less frequently used, had a more favorable toxicity profile, with superior median OS and disease control.

- INTRAPERITONEAL CHEMOTHERAPY FOR GASTRIC CANCER WITH PERITONEAL CARCINOMATOSIS: STUDY PROTOCOL OF A PHASE II TRIAL(2023) RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; VICTOR, Carolina Ribeiro; GREGORIO, Joao Vitor Antunes Marques; ALBAN, Luciana Bastos Valente; MONIZ, Camila Motta Venchiarutti; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza De; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo Gehm; JUNIOR, Ulysses Ribeiro; DIAS, Andre RonconBackground: Peritoneal carcinomatosis in gastric cancer is considered a fatal disease, without expectation of definitive cure. As systemic chemotherapy is not sufficient to contain the disease, a multimodal approach associating intraperitoneal chemotherapy with surgery may represent an alternative for these cases.Aims: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in stage IV gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis.Methods: This study is a single institutional single-arm prospective clinical trial phase II (NCT05541146). Patients with the following inclusion criteria undergo implantation of a peritoneal catheter for intraperitoneal chemotherapy: Stage IV gastric adenocarcinoma; age 18-75 years; Peritoneal carcinomatosis with peritoneal cancer index<12; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group 0/1; good clinical status; and lab exams within normal limits. The study protocol consists of four cycles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with paclitaxel associated with systemic chemotherapy. After treatment, patients with peritoneal response assessed by staging laparoscopy undergo conversion gastrectomy.Results: The primary outcome is the rate of complete peritoneal response. Progression-free and overall survivals are other outcomes evaluated. The study started in July 2022, and patients will be screened for inclusion until 30 are enrolled.Conclusions: Therapies for advanced gastric cancer patients have been evaluated in clinical trials but without success in patients with peritoneal metastasis. The treatment proposed in this trial can be promising, with easy catheter implantation and ambulatory intraperitoneal chemotherapy regime. Verifying the efficacy and safety of paclitaxel with systemic chemotherapy is an important progress that this study intends to investigate.
- Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC): The First Reported Case in Brazil Using Standardized Technique with the Capnopen (R) Nebulizer Device(2021) AKAISHI, Eduardo Hiroshi; SILVA, Diego Greatti Vaz da; LIMA, Helber Vidal Gadelha; GRAPPERON-MATHIS, Roberta Lages M.; ARAKAKI, Mariana de Souza; GALINDO, Ivan Vinicius Andrade; DAIA, Lucas Afonso; ARARUNA, Gustavo Ferreira; OLIVEIRA, Andre Luiz Torres; MANCINI, Caio Nasser; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo GehmObjective: setting Background: Peritoneal metastasis is a common progression of abdominal-pelvic cancers, and it is associated with poorer oncological prognosis when compared to other metastasis sites. Its treatment has limited results, mainly because of poor bioavailability of chemotherapy within the abdominal cavity after systemic administration. Pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC) has been proposed as a novel method to deliver chemotherapy directly into the peritoneal surface; it combines the effectiveness and response of an intraperitoneal therapy with benefits of a minimally invasive approach. The laparoscopic capnoperitoneum is used to instill chemotherapy particles in a more efficient way for distribution and penetration when compared to peritoneal lavage. In the present study, we describe the first PIPAC performed in Brazil, according to the standard technique previously described with the Capnopen (R) nebulizer device, as well as technique details based on our literature review. Case Report: A 67-year-old man with pancreatic adenocarcinoma metastatic to the liver at first diagnosis underwent systemic treatment with the FOLFIRINOX protocol. After a major clinical response due to systemic treatment, pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed with resection and radiofrequency ablation of hepatic nodules. After 7 months of follow-up, the patient's condition evolved with symptomatic relapse in the peritoneum. Aiming at better control of this site, multiple PIPAC procedures were performed, showing excellent control of the peritoneal cavity disease. The patient had a sustained response in the peritoneal cavity and showed systemic disease progression 6 months after the first PIPAC procedure, which deceased at 20 months after the first PIPAC procedure and 42 months after the primary diagnosis. Conclusions: This report shows that the PIPAC procedure is reproducible elsewhere, with safety and good functional results.

We evaluated symptom improvement, quality of life, clinical improvement, toxicity, response rate, improvement of ECOG PS, and overall survival in these patients. Multiagent chemotherapy improved symptoms in 42.8% without grade 3 to 4 toxicity, but 46% of patients presented early clinical deterioration. Palliative multiagent chemotherapy in poor-performance mCRC patients resulted in mild impact in symptoms with no benefit in OS and a high risk of toxicity and treatment-related death.Introduction: Colorectal cancer is the second most common cancer in both genders and often presents as a metastatic, unresectable, or recurrent disease in early follow-up. It is uncertain the benefit of oxaliplatin-based palliative chemotherapy (CT) in the first line of treatment in patients with compromised performance status (PS), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 3 and 4. These patients are systematically excluded from clinical trials but may be treated in clinical practice. Methods: We conducted a prospective observational cohort whose primary outcome was improving at least 2 points in the worst symptom in the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System Scale (ESAS-r), without grade 3 to 4 toxicity, comparing baseline and fourth week of treatment. Secondary endpoints included quality of life using the European Quality of Life-5 dimensions questionnaire, toxicity, response rate, clinical improvement of ECOG PS, and overall survival (OS). Results: We included 28 patients, and 12 (42.8%) achieved the primary endpoint. Median overall survival was 86 days, 46% of patients did not respond to the fourth-week reevaluation due to clinical deterioration, and 17.8% presented toxicity grade & GE;3, with 5 patients dying from toxicity. In addition, ECOG PS 4 or cholestasis had poorer overall survival. Finally, 25% and 53.6% of patients received these treatments in the last 14 and 30 days of life, respectively. Conclusion: In the present study, palliative multiagent chemotherapy in poor performance status patients with non-molecularly selected colorectal cancer tended to impact tumor symptoms control; however, there is no benefit in OS and a considerable risk of toxicity and treatment-related death.
- Sorafenib in Combination With Capecitabine: An Oral Regimen for Patients With HER2-Negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer(2012) BASELGA, Jose; SEGALLA, Jose Getulio Martins; ROCHE, Henri; GIGLIO, Auro del; PINCZOWSKI, Helio; CIRUELOS, Eva M.; CABRAL FILHO, Sebastiao; GOMEZ, Patricia; EYLL, Brigitte Van; BERMEJO, Begona; LLOMBART, Antonio; GARICOCHEA, Bernardo; DURAN, Miguel Angel Climent; HOFF, Paulo Marcelo Gehm; ESPIE, Marc; MORAES, Andre Augusto Junior Gemeinder de; RIBEIRO, Ronaldo Albuquerque; MATHIAS, Clarissa; GIL, Miguel Gil; OJEDA, Belen; MORALES, Josefa; RO, Sunhee Kwon; LI, Shell; COSTA, FredericoPurpose Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor with antiangiogenic/antiproliferative activity. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase IIB trial assessed sorafenib with capecitabine for locally advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -negative breast cancer. Patients and Methods Patients were randomly assigned to first-or second-line capecitabine 1,000 mg/m(2) orally twice a day for days 1 to 14 of every 21-day cycle with sorafenib 400 mg orally twice a day or placebo. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Results In total, 229 patients were enrolled. The addition of sorafenib to capecitabine resulted in a significant improvement in PFS versus placebo (median, 6.4 v 4.1 months; hazard ratio [HR], 0.58; 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.81; P = .001) with sorafenib favored across subgroups, including first-line (HR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.82) and second-line (HR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.41 to 1.04) treatment. There was no significant improvement for overall survival (median, 22.2 v 20.9 months; HR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.61 to 1.23; P = .42) and overall response (38% v 31%; P = .25). Toxicities (sorafenib v placebo) of any grade included rash (22% v 8%), diarrhea (58% v 30%), mucosal inflammation (33% v 21%), neutropenia (13% v 4%), hypertension (18% v 12%), and hand-foot skin reaction/hand-foot syndrome (HFSR/HFS; 90% v 66%); grade 3 to 4 toxicities were comparable between treatment arms except HFSR/HFS (44% v 14%). Reasons for discontinuation in the sorafenib and placebo arms included disease progression (63% v 82%, respectively), adverse events (20% v 9%, respectively), and death (0% v 1%, respectively). Conclusion Addition of sorafenib to capecitabine improved PFS in patients with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. The dose of sorafenib used in this trial resulted in unacceptable toxicity for many patients. A phase III confirmatory trial has been initiated with a reduced sorafenib dose.
