Aim: The aim of our study was to investigate the potential reduction in the likelihood of anastomotic leakage occurrence in patients undergoing open anterior resection of the rectum without a protective stoma for stage III adenocarcinoma, by employing a transanal tube after performing stapled colorectal anastomosis. Results: Considering the influence of all included risk factors, male gender (p=0.032; OR=2.873) and patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (p=0.033; OR=2.873) demonstrated an increased likelihood of anastomotic leakage, while the presence of a transanal tube (p=0.043; OR=0.349; 95% CI: 0.126, 0.966) was associated with a statistically significant reduction in the likelihood of anastomotic leakage. T-test revealed that patients with anastomotic leakage without a placed tube had a statistically significantly longer mean postoperative hospitalization (20.94 days) compared to those with a transanal tube (19.43 days) (t=2.375; p=0.025). Kaplan-Meier analysis didn’t show a statistically significant difference in the average estimated time to the occurrence of anastomotic leakage between patients without (3.86 days) and with a transanal tube (4.58 days) (p=0.057). Conclusion: Our study found that the placement of a transanal tube after colorectal anastomosis may be associated with a reduced likelihood of anastomotic leakage and shorter hospitalization in case leakage occurs. Additionally, although no statistically significant difference was found in the effect of the tube on the occurrence of anastomotic leakage depending on the presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus, the indication for its use in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus may be of particular benefit.

- Abstract
Aim To assess the safety and tolerability of adjuvant subcutaneous trastuzumab (Herceptin® SC, H SC), delivered from an H SC Vial via hand-held syringe (Cohort A) or single-use injection device (Cohort B), with or without chemotherapy, for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive stage I to IIIC early breast cancer (EBC) in the phase III SafeHer study (NCT01566721). Methods Patients received 600 mg fixed-dose H SC every 3 weeks for 18 cycles. The chemotherapy partner was at the investigators' discretion (H SC monotherapy was limited to ≤10% of the population). Data from the first H SC dose until 28 days (plus a 5-day window) after the last dose are presented. Results are descriptive. Results In the overall population, 2282/2573 patients (88.7%) experienced adverse events (AEs). Of the above, 128 (5.0%) patients experienced AEs leading to study drug discontinuation; 596 (23.2%) experienced grade ≥ 3 AEs and 326 (12.7%) experienced serious AEs. Grade ≥ 3 cardiac disorders were reported in 24 patients (0.9%), including congestive heart failure in eight (0.3%). As expected, the AE rates varied according to the timing of chemotherapy in both cohorts, with higher rates in concurrent versus sequential chemotherapy subgroups. In the concurrent chemotherapy subgroup, AEs were more common during the actual period of concurrent chemotherapy compared with the period when patients did not receive concurrent chemotherapy. Conclusion SafeHer confirms the safety and tolerability of the H SC 600 mg fixed dose for 1 year (every 3 weeks for 18 cycles) as adjuvant therapy with concurrent or sequential chemotherapy for HER2-positive EBC. These primary analysis results are consistent with the known safety profile for intravenous H and H SC.

Background: Large-scale international collaboration is essential to decipher relevant information in the context of omics-scale interrogations in cancer research. This is even more important for rare and fatal diseases like pancreas cancer (PC). Methods: The COST Action BM1204 is a unique platform to facilitate the collaboration of a broad range of European and international PC multidisciplinary research groups in order to: (1) integrate knowledge and experience in a multidisciplinary way ‘from cell to society', (2) promote the application of uniform study tools and protocols, (3) foster their optimal use by early-stage researchers, (4) enhance the mobility and training of researchers, and (5) disseminate the results produced to the broader society. Results: This Action will develop novel interdisciplinary tools for collaborative research to improve our understanding of PC and its prevention, diagnosis and treatment. It also aims to answer questions related to the etiology, early detection, evidence-based and personalized treatment, and health management for PC. Furthermore, the Action will contribute to new insights into PC personalized medicine and beyond as well as to the understanding of complex and rare diseases taking PC as a best practice example. The Action aims at attracting young scholars across a range of disciplines in collaboration with more experienced researchers and enhancing active European participation in the international scenario of PC research. Conclusion: The ultimate aim is to foster PC research in Europe and to coordinate this effort with other international initiatives to reduce disease mortality.

Introduction/Objective. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of different approaches in the treatment of metastatic melanoma in daily clinical practice in a situation with limited and late availability of new drugs in a resource-limited country and to compare these parameters with those reported in clinical studies and from other real-world data. Methods. Main methods included assessment of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Patients were included in the study if they were treated with first or second-line systemic therapy for radiologically/ pathologically confirmed metastatic melanoma. Patients were divided into four groups based on the type of therapy they received: chemotherapy (dacarbazin), BRAF inhibitor (vemurafenib), BRAF/MEK inhibitors (vemurafenib/cobimetinib and trametinib/dabrafenib) and anti PD-1 therapy with pembrolizumab. Results. Regardless of the line of therapy, the calculated median OS in chemotherapy and vemurafenib group was nine months. The median OS in the BRAF/MEK inhibitor group was 14 months and 15 months in the pembrolizumab group. Median PFS in the chemotherapy group was four months, seven months for vemurafenib, in the BRAF/MEK inhibitor group nine months and in the pembrolizumab group six months. There was a statistically significant difference in survival between first and second-line therapy in the pembrolizumab group. Conclusion. Our results showed lower median OS and PFS in comparison to reported data from clinical trials. Compared to other real-world data from countries with similar problems related to the late reimbursement of new drugs, our research has shown similar results.

Context. Neoangiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis are essential for the growth of tumor and progression of malignancy. Objective. The study examined the significance of VEGF-C expression in comparison to classical prognostic factors in differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), as well as an independent prognostic marker in DTC. Design. The study included 81 patients with DTC allocated in two groups according to the type of cancer (follicular versus papillary) and then compared to expression of VEGF-C and clinicopathological features. Methods. Expression of VEGF-C was identified with anti-VEGF-C antibody using tris-EDTA buffer Antigen Retrieval Protocol. Each specimen was scored with a semiquantitative score system (H-score). Results. The analysis of T staging system showed a linear correlation between the size of a tumor, expression of VEGF-C and recurrence of a disease, with a statistical significance (p < 0.0001). There was a clear and significant correlation between VEGF-C expression and T stage in patients with papillary carcinoma (p = 0.0294). Analysis of invasion of a surgical margin demonstrated significant positivity in patients with papillary thyroid cancers who expressed VEGF-C (p = 0.0207) indicating the worse prognosis of a disease. Also a statistically significant correlation was between VEGF-C and extrathyroid extension, indicating the worse prognosis (p = 0.0133) in papillary cancers. The level of VEGF-C expression was statistically significant in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (p = 0.039). Conclusions. This study undoubtedly demonstrates that VEGF-C expression is an evident negative prognostic factor in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma, along with the classic prognostic factors, such as a larger tumor size, tumor margin involvement, extrathyroid extension, i.e. local aggressiveness.

Alectinib, a highly selective inhibitor of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), has shown systemic and central nervous system (CNS) efficacy in the treatment of ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We investigated alectinib as compared with crizotinib in patients with previously untreated, advanced ALK-positive NSCLC, including those with asymptomatic CNS disease. In a randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned 303 patients with previously untreated, advanced ALK-positive NSCLC to receive either alectinib (600 mg twice daily) or crizotinib (250 mg twice daily). The primary end point was investigator-assessed progression-free survival. Secondary end points were independent review committee-assessed progression-free survival, time to CNS progression, objective response rate, and overall survival. During a median follow-up of 17.6 months (crizotinib) and 18.6 months (alectinib), an event of disease progression or death occurred in 62 of 152 patients (41%) in the alectinib group and 102 of 151 patients (68%) in the crizotinib group. The rate of investigator-assessed progression-free survival was significantly higher with alectinib than with crizotinib (12-month event-free survival rate, 68.4% [95% confidence interval (CI), 61.0 to 75.9] with alectinib vs. 48.7% [95% CI, 40.4 to 56.9] with crizotinib; hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.47 [95% CI, 0.34 to 0.65]; P

Aim To assess the safety and tolerability of adjuvant subcutaneous trastuzumab (Herceptin ® SC, H SC), delivered from an H SC Vial via hand-held syringe (Cohort A) or single-use injection device (Cohort B), with or without chemotherapy, for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive stage I to IIIC early breast cancer (EBC) in the phase III SafeHer study (NCT01566721). Methods Patients received 600 mg fixed-dose H SC every 3 weeks for 18 cycles. The chemotherapy partner was at the investigators' discretion (H SC monotherapy was limited to ≤10% of the population). Data from the first H SC dose until 28 days (plus a 5-day window) after the last dose are presented. Results are descriptive. Results In the overall population, 2282/2573 patients (88.7%) experienced adverse events (AEs). Of the above, 128 (5.0%) patients experienced AEs leading to study drug discontinuation; 596 (23.2%) experienced grade ≥ 3 AEs and 326 (12.7%) experienced serious AEs. Grade ≥ 3 cardiac disorders were reported in 24 patients (0.9%), including congestive heart failure in eight (0.3%). As expected, the AE rates varied according to the timing of chemotherapy in both cohorts, with higher rates in concurrent versus sequential chemotherapy subgroups. In the concurrent chemotherapy subgroup, AEs were more common during the actual period of concurrent chemotherapy compared with the period when patients did not receive concurrent chemotherapy. Conclusion SafeHer confirms the safety and tolerability of the H SC 600 mg fixed dose for 1 year (every 3 weeks for 18 cycles) as adjuvant therapy with concurrent or sequential chemotherapy for HER2-positive EBC. These primary analysis results are consistent with the known safety profile for intravenous H and H SC.

- Abstract
Background: Primary central nervous system lymphoma(PCNSL) is an aggressive, rare form of Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, characterized by the absence of systemic disease. There are limited data and no strictly defined guidelines for management of PCNSL., Objective: The aim of this study was to report a 10 year experience of PCNSL treatment, to evaluate treatment outcomes and asses Progression Free and Overall Survival of these patients., Methods: Study was conducted on the Haematology Clinic, Clinical center University of Sarajevo, BH, in the period from January 2012.-December 2022. Total sample of 24 patients were enrolled. All have undergone diagnostic surgery. Patients were treated with regimens based on High dose Methotrexate, with/without whole brain radiotherapy as consolidation. Treatment response was captured by imaging techniques. Patients who have relapsed were evaluated with imaging techniques and treated according to Methotrexate-based treatment protocols., Results: We have captured equal gender distribution. The median age of patients was 59.5 years (range 20-79). Pathohistological analysis confirmed DLBCL diagnosis in 22 patients, T cell lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma, each in 1 patient. Chemotherapy, chemotherapy combined with WBRT and radiotherapy were given to 5, 18 and 1 patients, respectively. The overall complete response rate (CR) was 87,15%. Those receiving combined modality-treatment had higher CR than those receiving chemotherapy (94,4% versus 60%). Out of 24 patients, 11 of them relapsed. The median time to relapse was 29 months (from 1 to 105). After second line of the treatment, CR was 54,5%, while 45,45% of patients died during the treatment. 4 patients relapsed for the second time with median time to relapse of 9 months (from 2 to 77). 2 year OS rate was 67%, and the median OS rate was 45,9 months. 2 year PFS rate was 31%., Conclusion: The OS and PFS rates indicate the usage of new drugs and consolidation with autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with PCNSL in order to achieve better treatment outcomes., Competing Interests: None to declare., (© 2024 Ajla Nizic, Lejla Ibricevic-Balic, Timur Ceric, Ibrahim Omerhodzic, Lejla Burazerovic, Vasvija Saric, Emina Mameledzija, Berina Hasanefendic.)

- Abstract
Purpose: Cancer is a leading cause of mortality worldwide. Its incidence is still increasing, particularly in developing countries. Recent progresses further strengthen the differences between low/middle and high-income countries. This situation calls for joint action to reduce inequities in cancer outcomes among the patients. The Association of Radiotherapy and Oncology of the Mediterranean Area (AROME) and the European School of Oncology (ESO), have initiated joint conferences devoted to access to innovations in oncology in the Mediterranean area. The heterogeneity of the economic, political and cultural situations of the different participating countries, offers the opportunity to develop consensus conference., Methods: Cancer prevention and treatment strategies were discussed according to existing international guidelines. The Scientific committee prepared 111 questions with an objective to prioritize the access to treatments and innovations in low/middle-income Mediterranean countries. The results from the votes of 65 oncology experts, coming from 16 countries and 33 institutions have been analysed and access priorities classified accordingly., Results: Ninety six percent of the proposed general recommendations concerning national health care strategies, oncology education, and treatment organization were considered to be high priorities. Regarding access to systemic treatments, 41% of the drugs without validated predictive markers and 53% of those with validated predictive markers were considered to be 1st level priority. Only 4 biological tests were considered to be 1st level priority to access to innovation., Conclusions: AROME-ESO consensus offers to cancer specialists from developing countries a basis for discussion with health authorities and payers on the prioritization of access to innovations in cancer care.

- Abstract
Introduction: Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) is very sensitive for diagnosis of recurrent NSCLC and has a significant impact on change of management. Preliminary data suggest superiority of PET-CT comparing to CT alone for lung cancer restaging., Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study which aim is to validate usage of PET-CT in suspected non-small cell lung carcinoma recurrence and its impact on further patient management. Total number of 31 patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma and uncertain diagnosis of recurrent disease or its extent after routine clinical and CT work-up were enrolled in this study., Discussion: We found in our study that PET-CT diagnosed recurrent disease in 65% of patients who were previously presented with an indeterminante CT. In 85% of patients there were change in further management., Conclusion: We suggest that PET should be performed on patients who have suspected relapse after potentially curative treatment, particularly if active treatment is being considered. PET-CT improved the diagnosis of recurrent NSCLC and this resulted in a significant impact and change in further patient management., Competing Interests: • Conflict of interest: none declared.

- Abstract
Introduction: Precise mediastinal lymph node staging in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) provides important prognostic information and it is obligatory in treatment strategy planning. 18Fluoro-deoxy-glucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography - computerized tomography (PET-CT) based on detection of metabolic activity showed superiority in preoperative staging of lung carcinoma., Materials and Methods: Total number of 26 patients diagnosed with NSCLC were included in this retrospective, cross-sectional study. Status of mediastinal lymph nodes was assessed in all patients comparing contrast enhanced CT and 18F-FDG PET-CT findings., Discussion: We found in our study that 50% of patients had different N stage on contrast enhanced CT comparing to 18F-FDG PET-CT findings. Among the total number of patients which had different nodal status on PET-CT comparing to CT alone, we found in our study that 54% of patients had change in further therapy protocol after PET-CT change of nodal stage., Conclusion: Combined PET-CT which offers advantages of both modalities is excellent method for nodal (N) staging, so it is recommended in initial staging in patients with NSCLC. PET-CT used preopratively for mediastinal nodal staging has significant impact on further therapy planning and also has an consequential impact on health system savings.
