    (Elsevier, 2021) Tural, Deniz; Ölmez, Ömer Fatih; Sümbül, Ahmet Taner; Artaç, Mehmet; Özhan, Nail; Akar, Emre; Çakar, Burcu; Köstek, Osman; Ekenel, Meltem; Erman, Mustafa; Coşkun, Hasan Şenol; Selçukbiricik, Fatih; Keskin, Özge; Türköz, Fatma Paksoy; Oruç, Kerem; Bayram, Selami; Yılmaz, Uğur; Bilgetekin, İrem; Yıldız, Birol; Şendur, Mehmet Ali Nahit; Paksoy, Nail; Dirican, Ahmet; Erdem, Dilek; Selam, Meltem; Tanrıverdi, Özgür; Paydaş, Semra; Urakçı, Zuhat; Atağ, Elif; Güncan, Sabri; Ürün, Yüksel; Alkan, Ali; Kaya, Ali Osman; Özyükseler, Deniz Tataroğlu; Taşkaynatan, Halil; Yıldırım, Mustafa; Sönmez, Müge; Başoğlu, Tuğba; Gündüz, Şeyda; Kılıçkap, Saadettin
    Background: Atezolizumab (ATZ) has demonstrated antitumor activity and manageable safety in previous studies in patients with locally advanced or metastatic platinum resistant urothelial carcinoma. Objective: To compare the real-life experience and data of clinical trials on ATZ treatment in metastatic urothelial carcinoma. Design, setting, and participants: Patients with urothelial cancer treated with ATZ after progression on first-line chemotherapy from an expanded access program were retrospectively studied. Data of patients were obtained from their files and hospital records. Safety was evaluated for patients treated with at least one cycle of ATZ. Outcome measurements and statistical analysis: The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR). The secondary endpoints are overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response, and safety profile of patients. Kaplan-Meier methods were used to calculate median follow-up and estimate PFS and OS. Results and limitations: Data of 115 enrolled patients were analyzed. Most of the patients (92.3%, n = 106) had received chemotherapy regimen only once prior to ATZ. The median follow-up duration was 23.5 mo. The complete response rate, partial response rate, and ORR were 8.7% (n = 10), 20.0% (n = 23), and 28.7% (n = 33), respectively. The median duration of response was 20.4 mo (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.47-28.8). Of the 33 patients who responded to treatment, 60% (n = 20) had an ongoing response at the time of the analysis. PFS and OS with ATZ were 3.8 mo (95% CI, 2.25-5.49) and 9.8 mo (95% CI, 6.7-12.9), respectively. All-cause and any-grade adverse events were observed in 113 (98%) patients. Of the patients, 64% experienced a treatment-related adverse event of any grade and 24 (21.2%) had a grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse event. Limitations of the study included its retrospective design, and determination of treat-ment response based on clinical notes and local radiographic studies. Conclusions: In these real-life data, ATZ was effective and well tolerated in patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma who have progressed with platinum-based first-line chemotherapy. ATZ is an effective and tolerable treatment for patients with locally advanced or metastatic platinum-resistant urothelial carcinoma in our study, similar to previously reported trials. Patient summary: Atezolizumab is effective and well-tolerated in patients with meta-static urothelial cancer who progressed with first-line chemotherapy, consistent with the outcomes of the previous clinical trials in this setting.

    The Concomitant Use Of Proton Pump Inhibitors And Pazopanib In Patients With Soft-Tissue Sarcoma: Is It Really To Be Avoided?
    (2020) Kaplan, Muhammet Ali; Araz, Murat; Artaç, Mehmet; Sezgin, Yasin; Eryılmaz, Melek Karakurt; Karaağaç, Mustafa
    Objectives: Pazopanib is an orally administered drug and has approval for the treatment of advanced Soft TissueSarcomas (aSTS). The absorption of pazopanib is pH-dependent. Acid-Reducing drugs such as proton pump inhibitors(PPI) may reduce the bioavailability of pazopanib. The primary purpose of this study was to assess whether the use ofconcomitant PPI and pazopanib had negative effects on survival outcomes.Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional study, age ?18 years, having histologically proven STS, receiving pazopanibat least one day, and availability of information about the use of PPI during pazopanib treatment were the inclusioncriteria. Patients with adipocytic sarcoma were excluded.Results: A total of 46 eligible patients were assessed in this study. Thirty-one patients used concomitant PPI andpazopanib, 17 of them frequently used PPI, and the others occasionally. Fifteen patients never used concomitant PPI andpazopanib. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.76 months, and the median overall survival (OS) was7.39?months for patients who never used concomitant PPI and pazopanib. Also, the median PFS was 5.22 months, and themedian OS was 14.52?months for patients who used concomitant PPI and pazopanib. In univariate analysis; usingconcomitant PPI (p=0.049) and primarily uterine located tumors (p=0.038) were significant parameters for PFS. Inmultivariate logistic regression analysis; both of using concomitant PPI (Wald=6.02; p=0.014) and primarily uterinelocated tumors (Wald=5.69; p=0.017) retained their association with longer PFS. No parameter was significant for OS.Conclusions: We showed that the use of concomitant PPI and pazopanib was associated with improved PFS. These resultsmay help guide clinicians and researchers for allowing patients co-administrating PPI and pazopanib, especially whentreating or investigating patients with dyspeptic symptoms.

    A multicentre, multinational study of clinical characteristics and prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma
    (World Health Organization, 2023) Dirican, Ahmet; Uncu, Doğan; Sekacheva, Marina; Artaç, Mehmet; Aladashvil, Archil; Erdoğan, Atike; Kaplan, Muhammet
    Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a significant health problem, and the associated mortality rate is increasing. Aim: We aimed to determine the clinical characteristics and prognosis for HCC in member countries of the OncoBridge Study Group. Methods: We recruited 630 patients diagnosed with HCC between 2013 and 2019 from 4 countries (Türkiye, Russia, Georgia, and Greece). Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to investigate clinical and laboratory prognostic factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to determine the prognostic value of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) value. Results: The 3 most common etiological factors were hepatitis B infection (39.7%), hepatitis C virus infection (17.0%) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (9.0%). Median overall survival for the whole group was 25 [95% confidence interval (CI): 15.7–34.2] months. Cut-off values for AFP and NLR were accepted as 200 ng/mL and 3.45, respectively. The area under the ROC curve values for AFP, NLR and NLR+AFP were 0.625 (95% CI: 0.547–0.704), 0.589 (95% CI: 0.512–0.667) and 0.657 (95% CI: 0.583–0.731). From the multivariate analysis, advanced tumour size, lymph node involvement and metastasis (TNM) stage, presence of cirrhosis, high AFP, and high NLR values were associated with poor survival. Conclusion: AFP, NLR, advanced TNM, and presence of cirrhosis may predict prognosis in patients with HCC. Studies involving more countries are needed to corroborate these findings.
