Hazai tapasztalatok metasztatikus kolorektális karcinóma bevacizumabbal kiegészített indukciós kemoterápiás kezelésével (AVACONT vizsgálat)
The primary aim of AVACONT was to collect data in the course of routine oncological care from patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) treated with bevacizumab supplemented fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy doublet in an open, multicentre, observational study in Hungary. Primary endpoint of the study was to determine progression-free survival (PFS). The Full Analysis Set (FAS) comprised 280 patients. Median PFS calculated from enrolment was 270 days in the FAS population. The metastatic involvement of the liver or more than one organ significantly decreased (250 and 245 days), while a clinical response achieved significantly increased (partial response: 404, complete response: 623 days) the mPFS calculated from enrolment. PFS calculated from the start of the first-line treatment was significantly decreased by the presence of mutant RAS gene (481 vs. 395 days). The results confirm the efficacy, known prognostic factors and safety profile of bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy dosed during standard oncology care in Hungarian centres
Áttétes vesedaganatos betegek kabozantinibterápiájának multicentrikus magyarországi eredményei
The aim of our analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of cabozantinib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Cabozantinib therapy initiated between 01/01/2019 and 31/12/2022 was evaluated based on a retrospective review of data from 14 renal centers in Hungary. The starting dose was 60 or 40 mg. Physical examinations and laboratory tests were performed every 4 weeks and imaging studies 3-monthly. Tumor response was assessed according to RECIST 1.1, and toxicity according to NCI CTCAE 4.0. A total of 230 patient records were evaluated, 201 (87.4%) of them had clear cell RCC. Cabozantinib was administered as third, second and first-line treatment in 48.7%, 38.3% and <5% of cases, respectively. Dose reductions occurred in 62.6% and treatment interruption in 6.5%. Duration of therapy was 10.03 months, which was independent of dose reduction. Overall tumor response rate was 39.2% and clinical benefit was 82.8%. The duration of first-, second-, third- and fourth-line treatment was 11.47, 8.03, 11.57 and 10.13 months, respectively. Overall survival from the start of therapy was 22.0 months. Cabozantinib therapy in daily practice was more beneficial than according to registry study results. Dose reduction did not affect efficacy
Capecitabine in Combination with Docetaxel in First Line in HER2-Negative Metastatic Breast Cancer: an Observational Study

Capecitabine in Combination with Docetaxel in First Line in HER2-Negatíve Metastatic Breast Cancer: an Observational Study
Due to the limited experience with capecitabine plus docetaxel (XT) combination in the first-line treatment of metastatic breast cancer in Hungary, the main objective of the study was to analyze the effectiveness and tolerability of XT therapy. A prospective, open-label, non-randomized, single-arm, multicenter, observational study was designed. All female patients were eligible whose metastatic breast cancer could be treated with the XT protocol according to the summary of product characteristics of the drugs. The median progression free survival was 9.9 ± 3.0 months. Time to treatment failure was 4.6 ± 5.1 months on average. The overall response rate was 28.9 %, the clinical benefit rate was 73.3 %. The treatment was discontinued in 35.6 % of patients due to disease progression and in 20.0 % due to adverse events (AE). 33 patients with a total of 73 AEs have been reported, and 13 of them had serious adverse events (SAE). The efficacy and the safety profile of XT chemotherapy proven in the study are consistent with the results demonstrated in randomized trials. First-line XT chemotherapy effectively improves the PFS in metastatic breast cancer.

Az emlőrák szisztémás kezelése: szakmai irányelvek
Since the III. Breast Cancer Consensus Conference, a number of new evidence based on clinical trial results have been published which justified updating the 2016 recommendation. In addition to classical prognostic factors, some multigenic tests, which we have incorporated into the recommendation, will play an important role in therapeutic decision-making. The professional guide primarily reflects the resolutions and recommendations of the current ESMO, NCCN, ABC4, as well as the St. Gallen Consensus Conference. From a didactic point of view, the text follows first the line of early and then locally advanced breast cancer, locoregionally recurrent and metastatic breast cancer. Within these, we discuss each group according to therapeutic options
