Öğe Biological Subtypes and Survival Outcomes in Breast Cancer Patients with Brain Metastases (Study of the Anatolian Society of Medical Oncology)(Karger, 2012) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Isikdogan, Abdurrahman; Koca, Dogan; Kucukoner, Mehmet; Gumusay, Ozge; Yildiz, Ramazan; Dayan, AdemBackground: The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the survival outcomes and biological subtype in breast cancer patients with brain metastases. Methods: We retrospectively evaluated clinical data from 422 breast cancer patients with brain metastases between 2001 and 2011 from referral centers in Turkey. The study population was divided into four biological subtypes according to their hormone receptor status and HER2 expression. Results: Systemic treatment prolonged median overall survival (OS) after brain metastases in the entire group (14 vs. 3.2 months, p < 0.001). It also prolonged median OS after brain metastases in the triple negative (7.5 vs. 1.6 months, p = 0.010) and luminal A (14.3 vs. 7.1 months, p = 0.003) subgroups. The median OS for untreated patients, chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy receiving patients, and chemotherapy and/or hormonal therapy plus targeted therapy receivers was 2, 5.8, and 17.7 months, respectively (p < 0.001), in the HER2-overexpressing subgroup. In the luminal B subgroup, it was 3.7, 5.3, and 15.4 months, respectively (p = 0.003). Conclusions: The use of systemic therapy improves OS after brain metastases in all biological subgroups. Targeted therapies also improve OS after brain metastases in HER2-positive patients. The combined use of targeted therapies and lapatinib are superior to single use and trastuzumab, respectively, in these patients. Copyright (C) 2012 S. Karger AG, BaselÖğe Breast cancer subtypes and the risk of distant relapse after breast conserving surgery or mastectomy: An Anatolian Society of Medical Oncology study.(Amer Soc Clinical Oncology, 2015) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Urakci, Zuhat; Uncu, Dogan; Dane, Faysal; Ozkan, Metin; Akman, Tulay; Harputluoglu, Hakan[Abstract Not Available]Öğe A case of fascioliasis mimicking malignancy(2019) Oruc, Idris; Oruc, Zeynep; Arac, Esref; Kaplan, Muhammet AliFascioliasis, initially considered as malignancy, can lead to unnecessary invasive procedures. A 69-year-old man presented with hepatic masses. Positron emission tomography (PET/CT), upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and colonoscopy performed to detect the primary tumour showed no lesion, except in the liver. The patient had eosinophilia and a history of raising livestock in an endemic area. The result of the indirect hemagglutination test for Fasciolia hepatica was 1/320. Serologic evaluation and dynamic computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis. Occassionally, it may be difficult to differentiate fascioliasis from malignancy. Fascioliasis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients with suspicious masses in the liver, especially in those living in endemic areas,prior to conducting invasive procedures.br / Fasciola hepatica, fascioliasis, malignancy.Öğe Clinical outcomes in patients who received lapatinib plus capecitabine combination therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastasis and a comparison of survival with those who received trastuzumab-based therapy: a study by the Anatolian Society of Medical Oncology(Springer Japan Kk, 2014) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Isikdogan, Abdurrahman; Koca, Dogan; Kucukoner, Mehmet; Gumusay, Ozge; Yildiz, Ramazan; Dayan, AdemIn this study, we investigated the effect of lapatinib plus capecitabine treatment in HER2-positive breast cancer patients with brain metastasis. Of 405 metastatic breast cancer patients with brain metastases at referral centers in Turkey, 46 were treated with lapatinib plus capecitabine only after the development of brain metastasis. Patients who only received trastuzumab-based therapy after the development of brain metastases were accepted as the historic control group for survival analyses (n = 65). Patients who received both drugs consecutively or sequentially were excluded from the analyses (n = 34). Median age among 46 patients who received lapatinib plus capecitabine therapy was 45 years (27-76), and median time for development of brain metastases was 11.9 months (0-69 months). Twenty-six out of 38 patients who received lapatinib plus capecitabine and had extracranial metastasis showed partial response or stable diseases (68.4 %). Grade 3-4 toxicity was observed in eight patients (17.3 %). Median overall survival (OS) in patients treated with lapatinib plus capecitabine was significantly increased compared to that in patients treated with trastuzumab-based therapy (19.1 vs. 12 months, respectively, p = 0.039). The incidence of cerebral death was slightly decreased in patients who received lapatinib plus capecitabine compared to those who received trastuzumab-based therapy (32 vs. 43.4 %, p = 0.332). In the multivariate analysis, lapatinib plus capecitabine therapy remained an independent positive predictor for survival [odds ratio (OR), 0.57; p = 0.02]. Although this retrospective multicenter study had several limitations, the results suggest that undergoing lapatinib plus capecitabine therapy after the diagnosis of brain metastasis may further improve survival compared to undergoing only trastuzumab-based therapy.Öğe Clinicopathologic and Prognostic Differences between Three Different Age Groups (Child/Adolescent, Young Adults, and Adults) of Colorectal Cancer Patients: A Multicentre Study(Karger, 2019) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Ozaydin, Sukru; Yerlikaya, Halis; Karaagac, Mustafa; Gumus, Mahmut; Cil, Timucin; Arslan, Ulku YalcintasBackground: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a rare disease amongst children and adolescents. Previous studies have reported a number of differences between children/adolescents, young adults, and adult patients with CRC. However, none of these studies compared these age groups according to their clinicopathologic and prognostic characteristics. In the current study, we compare these three age groups. Methods:A total of 173 (1.1% of 15,654 patients) young CRC patients (<= 25 years) were included in the study. As a control group, 237 adult CRC patients (>25 years) were also included. Patients were divided into three age groups: child/adolescent (10-19 years), young adult (20-25 years), and adult (>25 years). Results: Statistical differences amongst the three groups in terms of gender (p = 0.446), family history (p = 0.578), symptoms of presentation (p = 0.306), and interval between initiation of symptoms and diagnosis (p = 0.710) could not be demonstrated. Whilst abdominal pain (p < 0.001) and vomiting (p = 0.002) were less common in young adults than in other groups, rectal bleeding and changes in bowel habits were relatively less common in adolescents than in other groups. Rectal localisation (p = 0.035), mucinous adenocarcinoma (p < 0.001), and a poorly differentiated histologic subtype (p < 0.001) were less common in the adult group than in other groups. The percentage of patients with metastasis and sites of metastasis (e.g., peritoneum and lung) differed between groups. The median overall survival was 32.6 months in the adolescent group, 57.8 months in the young adult group and was not reached in the adult group (p = 0.022). The median event-free survival of the adolescent, young adult, and adult groups was 29.0, 29.9, and 61.6 months, respectively (p = 0.003). Conclusions: CRC patients of different age groups present different clinicopathologic and prognostic characteristics. Clinicians should be aware of and manage the disease according to these differences.Öğe The efficacy and reliability of sequential adjuvant anthracycline-based chemotherapy and weekly paclitaxel regimen in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative breast cancer: A retrospective analysis of a multicentre study(Imprimatur Publications, 2019) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Oruc, Zeynep; Gumus, Mahmut; Ozaydm, Sukru; Elkiran, Emin Tamer; Dine, Nur Sener; Sakin, AbdullahPurpose: To analyze the reliability and the effectiveness of chemotherapy and prognostic factors for survival in patients with HER2 (human epidermal growth receptor 2) negative early-stage breast cancer treated with adjuvant sequential anthracycline-based chemotherapy and paclitaxel. Methods: This analysis retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 756 HER2 negative early-stage breast cancel-patients who received adjuvant sequential anthracycline-based chemotherapy and weekly paclitaxel in 15 medical oncology centers in Turkey between 2008-2015. Estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2, age, tumor size and grade, nodal status, perineural and lymphatic invasion, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. Results: The median patient age was 50 years (22-82). Median follow up period was 46 months (13-82). The rates of recurrence and death detected in this period were 14.8% and 7.4%, respectively.Median OS and PFS were not reached in this period. Five-year DFS and OS rates were 87% and 89%, respectively. Age (OR:0.35, 95%CI 0.12-0.96, p=0.04), PR status (OR:.0.44, 95%CI 0.18-1, p=0.05), lymphatic invasion (OR:.2.6, 95%CI 0.97-7.4, p=0.05) were independent prognostic factors.Most common grade 3-4 toxicides were fatigue (6.7%), neutropenia (1.7%) and nausea (1.3%). Neutropenic fever developed in 1.8% o f the patients and peripheral neuropathy in 16.9%. Dose reduction was necessary for 10%of the patients due to grade 3-4 toxicity, whereas postponement of chemotherapy was neccessary for 7% of the patients. Conclusions: This multicentric retrospective study confirmed that sequential adjuvant therapy with anthracycline-based chemotherapy and paclitaxel for HER2 negative breast cancer is an effective and reliable regimen.Öğe Is eribulin treatment prognostic factor in patients with metastatic breast cancer treated with this drug? Retrospective analysis of a multicentre study(Imprimatur Publications, 2019) Oruc, Zeynep; Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Geredeli, Caglayan; Sari, Nilgun Yildirim; Ozaslan, Ersin; Aytekin, Aydin; Elkiran, Emin TamerPurpose: This study aimed to analyze prognostic factors for survival and the reliability and the effectiveness of eribulin therapy in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients. Methods: A total of 80 patients treated with eribulin in 12 medical oncology centers in Turkey between 2013-2017 were retrospectively evaluated. Sixteen potential prognostic variables were assessed for analysis. Results: The patients had received a median of 5 prior chemotherapy regimens and a median of 3 eribulin cycles for MBC. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.5 months (95% Cl: 4.1-7.8) and median overall survival (OS) was 11 months (95 % Cl: 6-15). Multivariate analysis showed that eribulin treatment line was shown to have independent prognostic significance for PFS. PFS difference was demostrated in patients who received 3 chemotherapy lines for advanced disease compared to those who had more than 3 chemotherapy lines [median PFS; 3 lines: 8.6 months (6.2-11) and >3 lines: 4.6 months (3.7-4.6) p=0.00]. The clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 52.5 and 35% in patients treated with three lines and with >3 previous chemotherapeutic regimens. Most common toxicities were neutropenia (62.5%), fatigue (52.5%), alopecia (50%) and nausea (37.5%). Conclusions: Eribulin treatment line was identified as indepedent prognostic factor for PFS in MBC patients.Öğe Lapatinib or trastuzumab? Which anti-HER2 treatment is more effective in the treatment of patients with HER2-positive breast cancer with brain metastases?
