    Aso Visual Abstract: Intervention for Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases in Breast Cancer Patients-Prospective, Multi-Institutional Registry Study: Imet; Protocol Mf 14-02
    (Springer, 2022) Soran, Atilla; Özbaş, Serdar; Özçınar, Beyza; Işık, Arda; Doğan, L.; Şenol, Kazım; Dağ, Ahmet; Karanlık, Hasan; Aytaç, Özgür; Karadeniz Çakmak, Güldeniz; Dalcı, Kubilay; Doğan, Mutlu; Sezer, Atakan Y.; Gökgöz, Şehsuvar; Özyar, Enis; Sezgin, Efe
    The aim of our prospective, multicenter registry study was to investigate the importance of interventions for operable lung and/or liver metastasis for breast cancer (BC) survival (https://doi.org/10.1245/s10434-022-12239-z). The results reveal that surgical resection or ablative interventions may contribute to survival in patients with BC with limited number and operable metachronous hepatic/pulmonary metastases. Ultimately, randomized studies will determine whether intervention on lung and liver metastatic sites should be performed. In the meantime, such interventions can be considered on select patients.

    Intervention for Hepatic and Pulmonary Metastases in Breast Cancer Patients: Prospective, Multi-Institutional Registry Study-Imet, Protocol Mf 14-02
    (Springer, 2022) Soran, Atilla; Özbaş, Serdar; Özçınar, Beyza; Işık, Arda; Doğan, Lütfi; Şenol, Kazım; Dağ, Ahmet; Karanlık, Hasan; Aytaç, Özgür; Karadeniz Çakmak, Güldeniz; Dalcı, Kubilay; Doğan, Mutlu; Sezer, Atakan Y.; Gökgöz, Şehsuvar; Özyar, Enis; Sezgin, Efe
    Background: One fourth of early-stage breast cancer cases become metastatic during the follow-up period. Limited metastasis is a metastatic disease condition in which the number of metastatic sites and the extent of the disease both are limited, and the disease is amenable to metastatic intervention. This prospective study aimed to evaluate intervention for limited metastases in the lung, liver, or both. Methods: The study enrolled luminal A/B and/or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-neu+ patients with operable lung and/or liver metastases in the follow-up assessment after completion of primary breast cancer treatment and patients with a diagnosis of metastasis after 2014. Demographic, clinical, tumor-specific, and metastasis detection-free interval (MDFI) data were collected. Bone metastasis in addition to lung and liver metastases also was included in the analysis. The patients were divided into two groups according to the method of treatment for metastases: systemic therapy alone (ST) group or intervention (IT) group.

    Excessive Replacement Changes Drive Evolution of Global Sheep Prion Protein (prnp) Sequences
    (Springer, 2022) Sezgin, Efe; Teferedegn, Eden Yitna; Ün, Cemal; Yaman, Yalçın
    Sheep prion protein (PRNP) is the major host genetic factor responsible for susceptibility to scrapie. We aimed to understand the evolutionary history of sheep PRNP, and primarily focused on breeds from Turkey and Ethiopia, representing genome-wise ancient sheep populations. Population molecular genetic analyses are extended to European, South Asian, and East Asian populations, and for the first time to scrapie associated haplotypes. 1178 PRNP coding region nucleotide sequences were analyzed. High levels of nucleotide diversity driven by extensive low-frequency replacement changes are observed in all populations. Interspecific analyses were conducted using mouflon and domestic goat as outgroup species. Despite an abundance of silent and replacement changes, lack of silent or replacement fixations was observed. All scrapie-associated haplotype analyses from all populations also showed extensive low-frequency replacement changes. Neutrality tests did not indicate positive (directional), balancing or strong negative selection or population contraction for any of the haplotypes in any population. A simple negative selection history driven by prion disease susceptibility is not supported by the population and haplotype based analyses. Molecular function, biological process enrichment, and protein-protein interaction analyses suggested functioning of PRNP protein in multiple pathways, and possible other functional constraint selections. In conclusion, a complex selection history favoring excessive replacement changes together with weak purifying selection possibly driven by frequency-dependent selection is driving PRNP sequence evolution. Our results is not unique only to the Turkish and Ethiopian samples, but can be generalized to global sheep populations.

    The Effect of Primary Surgery in Patients With De Novo Stage Iv Breast Cancer With Bone Metastasis Only (protocol Bomet Mf 14-01): a Multi-Center, Prospective Registry Study
    (Springer, 2021) Soran, Atilla; Doğan, Lütfi; Işık, Arda; Özbaş, Serdar; Trabulus, Didem Can; Demirci, Umut; Sezgin, Efe
    Background More evidence shows that primary surgery for de novo metastatic breast cancer (BC) prolongs overall survival (OS) in selected cases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of locoregional treatment (LRT) in BC patients with de novo stage IV bone only metastasis (BOM). Methods The prospective, multicenter registry study BOMET MF14-01 was initiated in May 2014. Patients with de novo stage IV BOM BC were divided into two groups: those receiving systemic treatment (ST group) and those receiving LRT (LRT group). Patients who received LRT were further divided into two groups: ST after LRT (LRT + ST group) and ST before LRT (ST + LRT group). Results We included 505 patients in this study; 240 (47.5%) patients in the ST group and 265 (52.5%) in the LRT group. One hundred and thirteen patients (26.3%) died in the 34-month median follow-up, 85 (35.4%) in the ST group and 28 (10.5%) in LRT group. Local progression was observed in 39 (16.2%) of the patients in the ST group and 18 (6.7%) in the LRT group (p = 0.001). Hazard of death was 60% lower in the LRT group compared with the ST group (HR 0.40, 95% CI 0.30-0.54, p < 0.0001). Conclusion In this prospectively maintained registry study, we found that LRT prolonged survival and decreased locoregional recurrence in the median 3-year follow-up. Timing of primary breast surgery either at diagnosis or after ST provided a survival benefit similar to ST alone in de novo stage IV BOM BC patients.

    Reply: the Effect of Primary Surgery in Patients With Stage Iv Breast Cancer With Bone Metastasis Only (protocol Bomet Mf 14-01): a Multi-Center, Registry Study

    Dear Editor, We’d like to thank Drs. Ishizuka and Horimoto for their letter to the editor. We’re glad to see their interest to our prospective study. Regarding their recommendation that univariate Kaplan–Meier analysis does not eliminate confounding factors, such as age, tumor size, number of bone metastasis, etc., we employed propensity score methods for the results, including Fig. 1.

    Randomized Trial Comparing Resection of Primary Tumor With No Surgery in Stage Iv Breast Cancer at Presentation: Protocol Mf07-01
    (Springer, 2018) Soran, Atilla; Özmen, Vahit; Özbaş, Serdar; Karanlık, Hasan; Müslümanoğlu, Mahmut; İgci, Abdullah; Johnson, Ronald; Sezgin, Efe
    The MF07-01 trial is a multicenter, phase III, randomized, controlled study comparing locoregional treatment (LRT) followed by systemic therapy (ST) with ST alone for treatment-na < ve stage IV breast cancer (BC) patients. At initial diagnosis, patients were randomized 1:1 to either the LRT or ST group. All the patients were given ST either immediately after randomization or after surgical resection of the intact primary tumor. The trial enrolled 274 patients: 138 in the LRT group and 136 in the ST group. Hazard of death was 34% lower in the LRT group than in the ST group (hazard ratio [HR], 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.49-0.88; p = 0.005). Unplanned subgroup analyses showed that the risk of death was statistically lower in the LRT group than in the ST group with respect to estrogen receptor (ER)/progesterone receptor (PR)(+) (HR 0.64; 95% CI 0.46-0.91; p = 0.01), human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)/neu(-) (HR 0.64; 95% CI 0.45-0.91; p = 0.01), patients younger than 55 years (HR 0.57; 95% CI 0.38-0.86; p = 0.007), and patients with solitary bone-only metastases (HR 0.47; 95% CI 0.23-0.98; p = 0.04). In the current trial, improvement in 36-month survival was not observed with upfront surgery for stage IV breast cancer patients. However, a longer follow-up study (median, 40 months) showed statistically significant improvement in median survival. When locoregional treatment in de novo stage IV BC is discussed with the patient as an option, practitioners must consider age, performance status, comorbidities, tumor type, and metastatic disease burden.
