Journal of Clinical Oncology : Official... Oct 2023To provide guidance to clinicians regarding the use of systemic therapy for melanoma.
PURPOSE
To provide guidance to clinicians regarding the use of systemic therapy for melanoma.
METHODS
American Society of Clinical Oncology convened an Expert Panel and conducted an updated systematic review of the literature.
RESULTS
The updated review identified 21 additional randomized trials.
UPDATED RECOMMENDATIONS
Neoadjuvant pembrolizumab was newly recommended for patients with resectable stage IIIB to IV cutaneous melanoma. For patients with resected cutaneous melanoma, adjuvant nivolumab or pembrolizumab was newly recommended for stage IIB-C disease and adjuvant nivolumab plus ipilimumab was added as a potential option for stage IV disease. For patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma, nivolumab plus relatlimab was added as a potential option regardless of mutation status and nivolumab plus ipilimumab followed by nivolumab was preferred over BRAF/MEK inhibitor therapy. Talimogene laherparepvec is no longer recommended as an option for patients with wild-type disease who have progressed on anti-PD-1 therapy. Ipilimumab- and ipilimumab-containing regimens are no longer recommended for patients with -mutated disease after progression on other therapies.This full update incorporates the new recommendations for uveal melanoma published in the 2022 Rapid Recommendation Update.Additional information is available at www.asco.org/melanoma-guidelines.

Review
IMPORTANCE
To date, recurrent implantation failure (RIF) has no clear definition and no clearly identified impaired function. Hence, the term RIF is currently used somewhat haphazardly, on the basis of clinicians' judgment.
OBJECTIVE
International experts in reproductive medicine met on July 1, 2022, in Lugano, Switzerland, to review the different facets of RIF and define the diagnosis and its appropriate management.
EVIDENCE REVIEW
A systematic review without meta-analysis of studies published in English from January 2015 to May 2022.
FINDINGS
Data indicated that RIF has been largely overevaluated, overdiagnosed, and overtreated without sufficient critical assessment of its true nature. Our analyses show that true RIF is extremely uncommon-occurring in <5% of couples with infertility-and that reassurance and continued conventional therapies are warranted in most cases of assisted reproductive technology (ART) failure. Although the true biologic determinants of RIF may exist in a small subset of people with infertility, they elude the currently available tools for assessment. Without identification of the true underlying etiology(ies), it is reasonable not to assign this diagnosis to a patient until she has failed at least 3 euploid blastocyst transfers (or the equivalent number of unscreened embryo transfers, adjusted to the patient's age and corresponding euploidy rate). In addition, other factors should be ruled out that may contribute to her reduced odds of sustained implantation. In such cases, implantation failure should not be the only issue considered in case of ART failure because this may result from multiple other factors that are not necessarily repetitive or persistent. In reality, RIF impacting the probability of further ART success is a very rare occurrence.
CONCLUSION
True RIF is extremely uncommon, occurring in <5% of couples with infertility. Reassurance and continued conventional therapies are warranted in most cases. It would seem reasonable not to assign this diagnosis to a patient until she has failed at least 3 euploid embryo transfers (or the equivalent number of unscreened embryos, adjusted to her age).
RELEVANCE
Given the number of internationally recognized experts in the field present at the Lugano meeting 2022, our publication constitutes a consensus statement.

Review
Wolfram-like syndrome (WFLS) is a recently described autosomal dominant disorder with phenotypic similarities to autosomal recessive Wolfram syndrome (WS), including optic atrophy, hearing impairment, and diabetes mellitus. We summarize current literature, define the clinical characteristics, and investigate potential genotype phenotype correlations. A systematic literature search was conducted in electronic databases Pubmed/MEDLINE, EMBACE, and Cochrane Library. We included studies reporting patients with a clinical picture consisting at least 2 typical clinical manifestations of WSF1 disorders and heterozygous mutations in WFS1. In total, 86 patients from 35 studies were included. The most common phenotype consisted of the combination of optic atrophy (87%) and hearing impairment (94%). Diabetes mellitus was seen in 44% of the patients. Nineteen percent developed cataract. Patients with missense mutations in WFS1 had a lower number of clinical manifestations, less chance of developing diabetes insipidus, but a younger age at onset of hearing impairment compared to patients with nonsense mutations or deletions causing frameshift. There were no studies reporting decreased life expectancy. This review shows that, within the spectrum of WFS1-associated disorders or "wolframinopathies," autosomal dominantly inherited WFLS has a relatively mild phenotype compared to autosomal recessive WS. The clinical manifestations and their age at onset are associated with the specific underlying mutations in the WFS1 gene.

Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND
A normal chromosomal constitution defined through PGT-A assessing all chromosomes on trophectoderm (TE) biopsies represents the strongest predictor of embryo implantation. Yet, its positive predictive value is not higher than 50-60%. This gap of knowledge on the causes of euploid blastocysts' reproductive failure is known as 'the black box of implantation'.
OBJECTIVE AND RATIONALE
Several embryonic, maternal, paternal, clinical, and IVF laboratory features were scrutinized for their putative association with reproductive success or implantation failure of euploid blastocysts.
SEARCH METHODS
A systematic bibliographical search was conducted without temporal limits up to August 2021. The keywords were '(blastocyst OR day5 embryo OR day6 embryo OR day7 embryo) AND (euploid OR chromosomally normal OR preimplantation genetic testing) AND (implantation OR implantation failure OR miscarriage OR abortion OR live birth OR biochemical pregnancy OR recurrent implantation failure)'. Overall, 1608 items were identified and screened. We included all prospective or retrospective clinical studies and randomized-controlled-trials (RCTs) that assessed any feature associated with live-birth rates (LBR) and/or miscarriage rates (MR) among non-mosaic euploid blastocyst transfer after TE biopsy and PGT-A. In total, 41 reviews and 372 papers were selected, clustered according to a common focus, and thoroughly reviewed. The PRISMA guideline was followed, the PICO model was adopted, and ROBINS-I and ROB 2.0 scoring were used to assess putative bias. Bias across studies regarding the LBR was also assessed using visual inspection of funnel plots and the trim and fill method. Categorical data were combined with a pooled-OR. The random-effect model was used to conduct the meta-analysis. Between-study heterogeneity was addressed using I2. Whenever not suitable for the meta-analysis, the included studies were simply described for their results. The study protocol was registered at http://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/ (registration number CRD42021275329).
OUTCOMES
We included 372 original papers (335 retrospective studies, 30 prospective studies and 7 RCTs) and 41 reviews. However, most of the studies were retrospective, or characterized by small sample sizes, thus prone to bias, which reduces the quality of the evidence to low or very low. Reduced inner cell mass (7 studies, OR: 0.37, 95% CI: 0.27-0.52, I2 = 53%), or TE quality (9 studies, OR: 0.53, 95% CI: 0.43-0.67, I2 = 70%), overall blastocyst quality worse than Gardner's BB-grade (8 studies, OR: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.24-0.67, I2 = 83%), developmental delay (18 studies, OR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.49-0.63, I2 = 47%), and (by qualitative analysis) some morphodynamic abnormalities pinpointed through time-lapse microscopy (abnormal cleavage patterns, spontaneous blastocyst collapse, longer time of morula formation I, time of blastulation (tB), and duration of blastulation) were all associated with poorer reproductive outcomes. Slightly lower LBR, even in the context of PGT-A, was reported among women ≥38 years (7 studies, OR: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.75-1.00, I2 = 31%), while obesity was associated with both lower LBR (2 studies, OR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.55-0.79, I2 = 0%) and higher MR (2 studies, OR: 1.8, 95% CI: 1.08-2.99, I2 = 52%). The experience of previous repeated implantation failures (RIF) was also associated with lower LBR (3 studies, OR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.55-0.93, I2 = 0%). By qualitative analysis, among hormonal assessments, only abnormal progesterone levels prior to transfer were associated with LBR and MR after PGT-A. Among the clinical protocols used, vitrified-warmed embryo transfer was more effective than fresh transfer (2 studies, OR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.05-2.33, I2 = 23%) after PGT-A. Lastly, multiple vitrification-warming cycles (2 studies, OR: 0.41, 95% CI: 0.22-0.77, I2 = 50%) or (by qualitative analysis) a high number of cells biopsied may slightly reduce the LBR, while simultaneous zona-pellucida opening and TE biopsy allowed better results than the Day 3 hatching-based protocol (3 studies, OR: 1.41, 95% CI: 1.18-1.69, I2 = 0%).
WIDER IMPLICATIONS
Embryo selection aims at shortening the time-to-pregnancy, while minimizing the reproductive risks. Knowing which features are associated with the reproductive competence of euploid blastocysts is therefore critical to define, implement, and validate safer and more efficient clinical workflows. Future research should be directed towards: (i) systematic investigations of the mechanisms involved in reproductive aging beyond de novo chromosomal abnormalities, and how lifestyle and nutrition may accelerate or exacerbate their consequences; (ii) improved evaluation of the uterine and blastocyst-endometrial dialogue, both of which represent black boxes themselves; (iii) standardization/automation of embryo assessment and IVF protocols; (iv) additional invasive or preferably non-invasive tools for embryo selection. Only by filling these gaps we may finally crack the riddle behind 'the black box of implantation'.

Rheumatology (Oxford, England) Nov 2023To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of current treatment strategies for the vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome.
OBJECTIVES
To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of current treatment strategies for the vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome.
METHODS
A protocolized systematic review according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was performed. Three databases were searched for reports on treatment strategies for VEXAS. Data from the included publications was extracted and a narrative synthesis was performed. Treatment response was recorded as complete (CR), partial (PR) or none (NR) depending on changes in clinical symptoms and laboratory parameters. Patient characteristics, safety data and previous treatments were analysed.
RESULTS
We identified 36 publications with a total of 116 patients; 113 (98.3%) were male. The identified reports included azacytidine (CR 9/36, 25%; PR 14/36, 38.9%), Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi) (CR 11/33, 33%; PR 9/33, 27.3%), tocilizumab (CR 3/15, 20%; PR 6/15, 40%), allogeneic stem cell transplantation (CR 6/7, 85.7%; one patient died), anakinra (CR 4/5, 80%; NR 1/5, 20%), canakinumab (CR 1/2, 50%; PR 1/2, 50%) and glucocorticoid monotherapy (CR 1/6, 16.7%; PR 4/6, 66.7%). Individual reports were available for TNF inhibitors, rituximab and MTX. Data on adverse events were available for 67 patients (67/116, 57.8%) and included: pneumonia (12/67, 17.9%), other infections (9/67, 13.4%), venous thromboembolisms (6/67, 8.9%), cytopenias (4/67, 5.9%), and acute (4/67, 5.9%) and chronic graft-vs-host-disease (2/67, 2.9%).
CONCLUSION
Current data on VEXAS treatment are limited and inhomogeneous. Treatment decisions should be individualized. For the devolvement of treatment algorithms clinical trials are needed. Adverse events remain a challenge, especially an elevated risk for venous thromboembolism associated to JAKi treatment should be carefully considered.

Review
INTRODUCTION
MET exon 14 (METex14) skipping is a rare oncogenic driver in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for which targeted therapy with MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) was recently approved. Given the heterogeneity in published data of METex14 skipping NSCLC, we conducted a systematic literature review to evaluate its frequency, patient characteristics, and outcomes.
METHODS
On June 13, 2022 we conducted a systematic literature review of publications and conference abstracts reporting frequency, patient characteristics, or outcomes of patients with METex14 skipping NSCLC.
RESULTS
We included 139 studies reporting frequency or patient characteristics (350,997 patients), and 39 studies reporting clinical outcomes (3989 patients). Median METex14 skipping frequency was 2.0% in unselected patients with NSCLC, with minimal geographic variation. Median frequency was 2.4% in adenocarcinoma or nonsquamous subgroups, 12.0% in sarcomatoid, and 1.3% in squamous histology. Patients with METex14 skipping NSCLC were more likely to be elderly, have adenocarcinoma histology; there was no marked sex or smoking status distribution. In first line of treatment, median objective response rate ranged from 50.7% to 68.8% with targeted therapies (both values correspond to MET TKIs), was 33.3% with immunotherapy, and ranged from 23.1% to 27.0% with chemotherapy.
CONCLUSIONS
Patients with METex14 skipping are more likely to have certain characteristics, but no patient subgroup can be ruled out; thus, it is crucial to test all patients with NSCLC to identify suitable candidates for MET inhibitor therapy. MET TKIs appeared to result in higher efficacy outcomes, although no direct comparison with chemotherapy or immunotherapy regimens was found.

Review
Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) is araredisorderwithan estimated prevalence being around 1 in 50,000 births. The syndrome is caused by the deletion of a critical region (Wolf-Hirschhorn Syndrome Critical region- WHSCR) on chromosome 4p16.3. WHS is clinically characterized by pre-and postnatal growth restriction, hypotonia, intellectual disability, craniofacial dysmorphismand congenital fusion anomalies. The clinical aspects are variable due to the deletion size.Consistently, epilepsy is one of the major concerns for parents and professionals caring for children with WHS. Seizures tend to occur in over 90% of patients, with onset within the first 3 years of life, and a peak incidence at around 6-12 months of age. Approximately 20% of patients had the first seizure onset within the first 6 months of age, almost 50% at 6 to 12 months of age and about 25% later than 12 months of age. The main types of epileptic seizures occurring in patients with WHS were generalized tonic-clonic seizures (around 70%). These were followed by tonic spasms (20%); focal seizures with impaired awareness (12%) and clonicseizures in 7% of patients.Seizures are often triggered by fever, followed by infections of various systems. Particularly, half of WHS patients experience status epilepticus in the first years of life, which can be fatal. Due to limited number of reports on the topic of EEG abnormalities in epilepsy among WHS patients, it is difficult to determine whether there are any characteristic deviations for WHS. Although more than 300 persons with WHS have been reported in the literature, there is sparse knowledge about epilepsy and methods of its anti-seizure medication (ASM) management with an assessment of their effectiveness. The purpose of this systematic review is to briefly summarize achievements and advances in the field of epilepsy in Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome.

Meta-Analysis Review
IMPORTANCE
Maternal age-related embryo aneuploidy is considered the most significant limiting factor for a favorable outcome after assisted reproduction technology (ART) procedures. Thus, preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies has been proposed as a strategy to genetically evaluate embryos before transfer to the uterus. However, whether embryo ploidy justifies all the aspects of age-related fertility decline remains controversial.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of different maternal ages on ART success rates after transfer of euploid embryos.
DATA SOURCES
ScienceDirect, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, the Cochrane library, Clinicaltrials.gov, EU Clinical Trials Register, and World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry were searched from inception until November 2021 using combinations of relevant keywords.
STUDY SELECTION AND SYNTHESIS
Observational and randomized controlled studies were included if they investigated the impact of maternal age on ART outcomes after the transfer of euploid embryos and reported frequencies of women achieving ongoing pregnancy or live birth.
MAIN OUTCOMES
The ongoing pregnancy rate or live birth rate (OPR/LBR) after euploid embryo transfer comparing women <35 vs. women ≥35 years old was the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes included implantation rate and miscarriage rate. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were also planned to explore the sources of inconsistency among studies. The quality of studies was assessed using a modified version of the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, and body of evidence was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation working group methodology.
RESULTS
A total of 7 studies were included (n = 11,335 ART embryo transfers of euploid embryos). A higher OPR/LBR (odds ratio, 1.29; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07-1.54; I = 40%) in women aged <35 years than in women ≥35 with a risk difference equal to 0.06 (95% CI, 0.02-0.09) was found. In line, implantation rate was higher in the youngest group (odds ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.12-1.32; I = 0%). A statistically significant higher OPR/LBR was also found comparing women aged <35 to women 35-37, 38-40, or 41-42. A gradient relationship between age and OPR/LBR could be observed in proportion meta-analysis, especially if restricted to studies with low risk of bias.
CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE
Increasing maternal age is associated with a decline in ART success rates independent of embryo ploidy. This message contributes to an appropriate patient's counseling before starting preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies procedures.

Meta-Analysis Review
Comparative safety of anaplastic lymphoma kinase tyrosine kinase inhibitors in advanced anaplastic lymphoma kinase-mutated non-small cell lung cancer: Systematic review and network meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (ALK-TKIs) are new treatment for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Here, we quantified the toxicity profiles of different ALK-TKIs to guide clinical decision making.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We searched PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Data were analyzed using random effects and consistency models under the frequency framework.
RESULTS
Of 865 relevant studies, 13 RCTs (encompassing 3,353 patients) were finally included. A network meta-analysis of all-grade AEs, fatal AEs, and treatment discontinuation due to AEs revealed no significant differences among the six ALK-TKIs. The rates of grade 3-4 AEs were: alectinib (16.2%), crizotinib (46.4%), brigatinib (63.7%), ensartinib (75.6%), ceritinib (78.3%), and lorlatinib (91.6%). The toxicity spectra of ALK-TKIs were different. The most frequent AEs associated with crizotinib were gastrointestinal reactions, visual disorders, neutropenia, edema, fatigue, and elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, while those in the alectinib group were anemia and constipation. Diarrhea, hepatotoxicity, and increased serum creatinine were most common with ceritinib. The most frequent AEs in the brigatinib group were gastrointestinal reactions, hypertension, cough, headache, and elevated ALT or AST levels. The most significant toxicities of ensartinib were skin disorders, including pruritus and rash. Changes in lipid levels were the most frequent AEs associated with lorlatinib; weight gain, cognitive effects, and mood effects were lorlatinib-specific AEs.
CONCLUSIONS
The toxicity spectra of ALK-TKIs differed. Alectinib might be the safest ALK-TKI drug according to the combined evidence of grades 3-4 AEs and the combined incidence.

Journal of Clinical Oncology : Official... Feb 2024To develop recommendations for germline mutation testing for patients with breast cancer.
PURPOSE
To develop recommendations for germline mutation testing for patients with breast cancer.
METHODS
An ASCO-Society of Surgical Oncology (SSO) panel convened to develop recommendations based on a systematic review and formal consensus process.
RESULTS
Forty-seven articles met eligibility criteria for the germline mutation testing recommendations; 18 for the genetic counseling recommendations.
RECOMMENDATIONS
/ mutation testing should be offered to all newly diagnosed patients with breast cancer ≤65 years and select patients >65 years based on personal history, family history, ancestry, or eligibility for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor therapy. All patients with recurrent breast cancer who are candidates for PARP inhibitor therapy should be offered / testing, regardless of family history. / testing should be offered to women who develop a second primary cancer in the ipsilateral or contralateral breast. For patients with prior history of breast cancer and without active disease, testing should be offered to patients diagnosed ≤65 years and selectively in patients diagnosed after 65 years, if it will inform personal and family risk. Testing for high-penetrance cancer susceptibility genes beyond / should be offered to those with supportive family histories; testing for moderate-penetrance genes may be offered if necessary to inform personal and family cancer risk. Patients should be provided enough pretest information for informed consent; those with pathogenic variants should receive individualized post-test counseling. Variants of uncertain significance should not impact management, and patients with such variants should be followed for reclassification. Referral to providers experienced in clinical cancer genetics may help facilitate patient selection and interpretation of expanded testing, and provide counseling of individuals without pathogenic germline variants but with significant family history.Additional information is available at www.asco.org/breast-cancer-guidelines.
