  • Phosphate Disorders in Cancer
    Joyita Bharati, Raad B. Chowdhury, Chandan Krushna Das, Hassan Izzedine, Kenar D. Jhaveri
    Kidney360, 2026
    Phosphate disorders are common in patients with cancer. Hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia, both, can lead to significant morbidity, and their mechanisms are uniquely influenced by tumor biology, anti-cancer therapies, and cellular shifts. Malignancies that can influence phosphate include MM that can cause both hypo- and hyperphosphatemia. Tumor-induced osteomalacia can lead to hypophosphatemia as well. Drug-induced renal phosphate wasting is a contributor to hypophosphatemia often associated with platinum-based therapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Conversely, hyperphosphatemia often results from tumor lysis syndrome and can manifest as symptomatic hypocalcemia and acute kidney injury. A step wise approach in determining the mechanism of hypophosphatemia and hyperphosphatemia is crucial to identify most appropriate treatment, especially with the expanding use of novel cancer therapies. This review summarizes the key mechanisms and management of phosphate disorders in oncology care in the current era.

    Visual Abstract 177Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen-617 (177Lu-PSMA-617) has shown positive survival outcomes in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. However, there are limited data in the hormone-sensitive setting. Here, in the CONSOLIDATE trial (177Lu-PSMA-617 Consolidation Therapy After Docetaxel in Patients with Synchronous High-Volume Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer), we intended to evaluate the role of 177Lu-PSMA-617 as consolidation therapy for residual disease after chemohormonal treatment in patients with synchronous high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Methods: This was an investigator-initiated randomized, parallel-group, open-label phase 2 trial. Synchronous high-volume mHSPC patients treated with androgen-deprivation therapy plus docetaxel and having residual nonprogressive disease after docetaxel completion (defined as prostate-specific antigen [PSA] > 0.2 ng/mL with PSMA-positive disease on 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT) were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the experimental arm (177Lu-PSMA-617, 7.4 GBq/cycle × 2, 6 wk apart with protocol-permitted standard of care) or control arm (protocol-permitted standard of care alone). The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving a PSA level of 0.2 ng/mL or less at 6 mo from randomization. Secondary endpoints included objective radiographic response rate, radiographic progression-free survival (PFS), PSA PFS, and toxicities. Results: The trial was terminated early because of poor accrual after the coronavirus disease pandemic and a change in treatment guidelines for mHSPC. Thirty high-volume mHSPC patients were randomized between January 2021 and June 2024. The primary endpoint was achieved in 9 of 15 (60%; 95% CI, 35%–85%) patients in the experimental arm versus 2 of 15 (13%; 95% CI, 0%–30%) in the control arm (risk ratio, 4.5; 95% CI, 1.2–17.4; P = 0.008). The objective radiographic response rates were 8 of 15 (53%; 95% CI, 28%–78%) and 1 of 15 (7%; 95% CI, 0%–19%) in the experimental and control arms, respectively (P = 0.014). The estimated median radiographic PFS and PSA PFS were 18 mo (95% CI, 9–27 mo) and 15 mo (95% CI, 12–18 mo), respectively, in the experimental arm versus 9 mo (95% CI, 4–14 mo) and 9 mo (95% CI, 1–17 mo), respectively, in the control arm. No grade 3 or 4 toxicity was noted with the addition of 177Lu-PSMA-617 in the experimental arm. Conclusion: In synchronous high-volume mHSPC patients having residual disease after chemohormonal treatment, 177Lu-PSMA-617 consolidation therapy demonstrated promising efficacy and safety outcomes. Larger phase 3 trials are warranted to definitively establish its survival benefit.
  • 177Lu-DOTATATE Plus Capecitabine Versus 177Lu-DOTATATE Alone in Patients with Advanced Grade 1/2 Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors (LuCAP): A Randomized, Phase 2 Trial
    Swayamjeet Satapathy, Piyush Aggarwal, Ashwani Sood, Kunal R. Chandekar, Chandan K. Das, Rajesh Gupta, Divya Khosla, Namrata Das, Rakesh Kapoor, Rajender Kumar, Harmandeep Singh, Jaya Shukla, Ajay Kumar, Bhagwant Rai Mittal
    Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2025
    177Lu-DOTATATE has emerged as a viable treatment strategy for advanced well-differentiated grade 1/2 gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). Few retrospective studies have shown concomitant 177Lu-DOTATATE with radiosensitizing low-dose capecitabine to be effective in advanced NETs. However, this has not been validated in prospective randomized-controlled trials. Methods: In this investigator-initiated, parallel-group, open-label, phase 2 trial, patients with grade 1/2 GEP-NETs, having progressive somatostatin receptor-positive, locally advanced, or metastatic disease on 68Ga-DOTANOC PET/CT, were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to 177Lu-DOTATATE plus capecitabine (experimental arm) or 177Lu-DOTATATE only (control arm). 177Lu-DOTATATE was administered at approximately 7.4 GBq/cycle intravenously, for up to 4 cycles, at 8 wk intervals, whereas capecitabine was given at 1,250 mg/m2/d orally from day 0 to day 14 of each cycle of 177Lu-DOTATATE. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate. Secondary endpoints included the disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival, and adverse events. Results: Seventy-two patients (median age, 53 y; range, 18-79 y) were enrolled. The objective response rate was 33.3% (95% CI, 18.6-50.9%) in the experimental arm versus 30.6% (95% CI, 16.4-48.1%) in the control arm (P = 0.800). The disease control rate was 88.9% (95% CI, 73.9-96.9%) and 91.7% (95% CI, 77.5-98.2%) in the experimental and control arms, respectively (P = 1.000). The estimated median progression-free survival in the experimental arm was 29 mo (95% CI, 22-29 mo) versus 31 mo (95% CI, 29-32 mo) in the control arm (P = 0.401). The median overall survival was not reached in either arm (P = 0.876). Overall, adverse events of at least grade 3 were noted in 7 patients in the experimental arm versus 6 patients in the control arm (P = 0.759). Conclusion: Based on the results of this trial, the addition of low-dose capecitabine to 177Lu-DOTATATE in advanced grade 1/2 GEP-NETs did not lead to superior radiographic responses. Further studies are needed to evaluate its potential role in high-grade NETs.

    International Journal of Cancer, 2025
    Gall bladder cancer (GBC) is common among the socioeconomically deprived populations of certain geographical regions. Aflatoxin is a genotoxic hepatocarcinogen, which is recognized to have a role in the pathogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the role of aflatoxin in the pathogenesis of GBC is largely unknown. We determined serum AFB1‐Lys albumin adduct (AAA) levels as a marker of aflatoxin exposure in the patients with GBC and compared to those without GBC. The relationship of AAA levels to cytogenetic (TP53mutation&HER2/neu amplification) and radiological characteristics of the tumor was assessed. We included GBC cases (n = 51) and non‐GBC controls (n = 100). Mean serum AAA levels were higher in the GBC group (n = 51) than those without GBC (n = 100) (26.1 ± 12.2 vs. 13.1 ± 11.9 ng/mL; p < .001). HER2/neu expression was associated with higher AAA levels compared to those with equivocal or negative expression (43.9 ± 3 vs. 28.6 ± 10 vs. 19.3 ± 7 ng/mL; p < .001). Older age (age >50 years) (odds ratio [OR] = 3.2 [CI: 1.3–8.2]; p = .013), positive Helicobacter pylori serology (OR = 5.1 [CI: 1.4–17.8]; p = .012), presence of GS (OR = 5 [CI: 1.5–16.9]; p = .009) and detectable AAA levels (OR = 6.8 [CI: 1.3–35.7]; p = .024) were independent risk factors for the presence of the GBC among all study subjects. Among patients harboring GS, older age (age >50 years) (OR = 4.5 [CI: 1.3–14.9]; p = .015), female gender (OR = 3.8 [CI: 1.2–12.5]; p = .027), presence of multiple GS (OR = 21.9 [CI: 4.8–100.4]; p < .001) and high serum AAA levels (OR = 5.3 [CI: 1.6–17.3]; p = .006) were independent risk factors for the presence of the GBC. Elderly age >50 years (OR = 2.6 [CI: 1.3–5.2]; p = .010) and frequent peanut consumption (OR = 2.3 [CI: 1.1–4.9]; p = .030) were independent risk factors for high serum AAA levels. The current study has implications for the prevention of GBC through the reduction of dietary aflatoxin exposure.

    PURPOSE For patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), delaying progression to castration-resistant disease is important not only for overall survival (OS) but also for patients' quality of life. Darolutamide plus androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) with docetaxel improved OS versus ADT and docetaxel in patients with mHSPC. The ARANOTE trial evaluated darolutamide and ADT without chemotherapy in patients with mHSPC. METHODS In this global phase III trial, patients were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive darolutamide 600 mg twice daily or placebo, with concomitant ADT. The primary end point was radiological progression-free survival (rPFS). RESULTS From March 2021 to August 2022, 669 patients were randomly assigned (darolutamide n = 446; placebo n = 223). At the primary cutoff date (June 7, 2024), darolutamide plus ADT significantly improved rPFS, reducing the risk of radiological progression or death by 46% versus placebo plus ADT (hazard ratio [HR], 0.54 [95% CI, 0.41 to 0.71]; P < .0001), with consistent benefits across subgroups, including high- and low-volume disease. OS results were suggestive of benefit with darolutamide versus placebo (HR, 0.81 [95% CI, 0.59 to 1.12]), and clinical benefits were seen across all other secondary end points, including delayed time to metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (HR, 0.40 [95% CI, 0.32 to 0.51]) and time to pain progression (HR, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.54 to 0.96]). Adverse events were similar in the two groups. Notably, the incidence of fatigue was lower in patients receiving darolutamide (5.6%) versus those receiving placebo (8.1%), and fewer patients receiving darolutamide (6.1%) versus placebo (9.0%) discontinued treatment because of adverse events. CONCLUSION These results confirm the efficacy and tolerability of darolutamide plus ADT in patients with mHSPC, demonstrating clinically and statistically significant improvement in rPFS and a favorable safety profile consistent with prior phase III darolutamide trials.

    Purpose The optimal management of primary renal leiomyosarcomas is unknown owing to its rarity and minimal available information about their primary, adjuvant treatment and clinical outcomes. This study systematically reviews treatment evidence and effects in terms of survival for leiomyosarcomas arising primarily from kidney, renal pelvis and renal vessels. Method PubMed and Embase databases were searched from inception to March 2023, with manual searches of reference lists. Two investigators independently reviewed the studies reporting management and survival outcomes of renal leiomyosarcomas. Results A total of 85 publications met inclusion criteria, reporting on 188 cases. The median age was 55.5 years, predominantly female [52.7%]. Pain was the most common presenting symptom [41.5%], and most tumors were high grade [45.8%]. Complete surgical resection with negative margins forms definitive treatment. The median disease-free survival and overall survival (OS) for all reviewed patients were 24 months [95%CI 4.1–43.9] and 42 months [95%CI 32.5–51.4], respectively. The OS of 1 year, 2 year, 3 year and 5 year was 78.8%, 64.4%, 53.8% and 38.9%, respectively. On univariate analysis, favorable factors for OS included tumor size ≤ 5 cm, low-grade histology, tumors of renal vascular origin and non-metastatic disease at presentation. Neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with either radiotherapy or chemotherapy has been shown to improve OS (NR vs. 36 months, p < 0.001), especially for high-grade tumors > 5 cm in size. Conclusion Radical nephrectomy with en bloc tumor resection with negative margins forms the mainstay of treatment for renal leiomyosarcomas. Adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy appears to improve OS. To validate this treatment strategy, prospective multicentric efforts are required to acquire reliable data from randomized trials.

    International Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics, 2024
    Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) of the liver represent a rare entity. Amongst this group of uncommon diseases primary hepatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PH‐NEN) represent only 0.3% of all NENs. Moreover, PH‐NEN has very rarely been reported in pregnancy. We report a 28‐year‐old young patient with metastatic small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the liver complicated with pregnancy. She was evaluated and managed through a multidisciplinary team approach and received two cycles of chemotherapy with a cisplatin/etoposide regimen during the antenatal period and delivered at 37 weeks period of gestation (POG). This case highlights the importance of major challenges faced during the diagnosis and management of this very rare disease in pregnancy and the successful fetomaternal outcome.

    PURPOSE Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) is the sixth most common cancer, with approximately 225,419 new cases with over 125,000 deaths annually in India. This trial compared the efficacy and safety of biosimilar cetuximab versus innovator cetuximab (IC) in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with recurrent locoregional or metastatic SCCHN. METHODS This phase III trial is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind and parallel group study performed in Indian patients with recurrent locoregional or metastatic SCCHN. Patients were randomly assigned in 2:1 ratio to receive biosimilar cetuximab and IC in combination with cisplatin and fluorouracil via intravenous infusions. The primary end points were disease control rate (DCR) and overall response rate (ORR) as per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors version 1.1. The secondary end points included pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, safety, and tolerability. RESULTS Of 180 patients enrolled, 120 patients received biosimilar cetuximab and 60 patients received IC treatment. No significant statistical difference was observed in the primary outcomes between two groups. Treatment difference in DCR and ORR response was found to be –5.21 (90% CI, –8.94 to –1.48) and –4.79 (90% CI, –19.42 to 9.84), respectively, indicating noninferiority to reference product. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs; biosimilar cetuximab: 89.2% v IC: 91.7%; P = .8364) and serious AEs (biosimilar cetuximab: 23.3% v IC: 13.3%; P = .0603) and PK parameters were comparable between treatment groups. The immunogenicity findings showed higher incidence of anticetuximab antibodies in the biosimilar cetuximab group compared with the IC group at the end of Study. CONCLUSION The findings of this study demonstrated noninferiority along with comparable PK, safety, and immunogenicity of biosimilar cetuximab and IC in patients with recurrent or metastatic SCCHN.
