    Notes: Summary The clinical course of 50 breast cancer patients whose first metastases were found in the lungs was investigated. 18 months after the start of primary treatment 50% of the patients had developed pulmonary metastases (range: 0–81 months). In 23% of patients a solitary, and in 68% more than one, lung metastases were detected. After a median time of 4 months, in 56% of patients the disease had spread to further organs with bone (25%) and liver (17%) being the most frequent sites. First line management of lung metastases employed surgery, endocrine treatment, chemotherapy or a combination of these modalities. In 24% of patients a complete response was achieved, and in 11% a partial response, with an overall response rate of 35%. Median survival from detection of lung metastases was 13 months (range 4–123+). Patients with only a solitary lung metastasis survived for a median of 11.5 months as compared to 10.5 months for patients with more than one pulmonary metastases. Patients with a disease-free interval of more than 18 months survived significantly longer than patients with a disease-free survival of 18 months or less.

    Notes: Summary Mucin-like cancer-associated antigen (MCA), a new tumor marker using the mouse monoclonal antibody b-12 is thought to be of value in the management of patients with breast cancer. In this study sera from 191 female patients with breast cancer (112 with progressive disease [PD] and 79 with no evidence of disease [NED]) were analyzed for MCA levels and compared with those of cancer antigen 15-3 (CA 15-3) in single determination and in combination with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA). A cut-off level of 14 U/ml for MCA seems to be more appropriate than the recommended 11 U/ml to distinguish between PD and NED in patients with breast cancer. Although there was a fairly good correlation of MCA to CA 15-3, MCA was inferior in sensitivity and specificity to CA 15-3. Patients with osseous metastases and those with more than one metastatic site showed higher MCA levels than patients with visceral or soft tissue metastases, a fact which was comparable to CA 15-3. Combining MCA and CA 15-3 resulted in a gain in specificity but marked loss of sensitivity. The combination of MCA and CEA results also in a loss of sensitivity whereas the combination of CA 15-3 and CEA showed an increased specificity and only a negligible loss of sensitivity. The combination of MCA with TPA is of little value in the follow-up of breast cancer, as is the combination of CA 15-3 with TPA. The combination of CA 15-3 with CEA can be still recommended for follow-up for early detection of metastases in breast cancer. Further investigations with MCA to determine the lead time of this new marker as well as its role as a possible monitor of the response to therapy are recommended.

    Notes: Summary In two groups of female patients with metastatic breast cancer who had all been pretreated with doxorubicin (350 mg/m2), acute cardiac effects following i.v. doxorubicin bolus injection (60 mg/m2) were recorded on the basis of systolic time intervals (STI). In six patients who received doxorubicin only the ratio between the heart-beat-corrected preejection period and left ventricular ejection time (PEPI:LVETI) as well as the PEP index were found to be significantly increased with a peak at 6 h following drug infusion (P〈0.001). Another six patients received an identical chemotherapeutic regimen and, in addition, a combination of tocopherol (200 mg i.m. 6 h before treatment) and nifedipine (60 mg p.o. daily from 2 days before doxorubicin infusion). In the pretreatment group, the PEPI: LVETI ration and PEP index remained unchanged during the posttreatment period. Pharmacokinetic analysis of drug concentrations in the plasma revealed a significantly accelerated distribution and elimination of doxorubicin after combined tocopherol and nifedipine pretreatment, although no statistically significant differences could be found in calculated drug levels in the peripheral compartment between both treatment groups. Our results indicate that acute cardiac reactions reflected by changes in STI values can be prevented by combined tocopherol and nifedipine pretreatment.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Arbeitsgruppen um Spiegelman und unserer Laboratorien haben nachgewiesen, daß das Enzym reverse Transcriptase auch extrazellulär bei malignen Erkrankungen aufgefunden werden kann. Ein solches Enzym wurde von Spiegelman aus der Muttermilch, von uns aus dem Plasma von Patientinnen mit Mammacarcinom und leukämischen Erkrankungen isoliert. Das von uns isolierte Enzym wurde zur elektrophoretischen Homogenität angereichert und kann 1) synthetische Templates (Primers) mit der der viralen Transcriptase inhärenten Spezifität ablesen; 2) heteropolymere RNA-Anteile einer einsträngigen Phagen-RNA in eine homologe DNA-Sequenz übersetzen und 3) weist chromatographisch ähnliches Verhalten wie die reverse Transcriptase onkogener RNA-Tumorviren auf. Vorläufige Untersuchungen zum Nachweis eines analogen Enzyms im Plasma bei anderen malignen Erkrankungen haben bisher kein positives Ergebnis gebracht.
    Notes: Summary Work from Spiegelman and from our laboratories documented extracellular occurrence of the enzyme reverse transcriptase in malignant states. This enzyme was shown to be present in particles of human milk by Spiegelman and in patients with breast cancer or leukemias by us. The isolated enzyme was purified to electrophoretic homogenity and 1) Utilizes synthetic template—primers with a specificity like the viral reverse transcriptase. 2) Is capable of copying heteropolymeric regions of natural RNA-template-primer complexes. 3) Shows the chromatographic behaviour of the viral enzyme. These preliminary investigations documented the presence of the above mentioned enzyme only in these two forms of malignancies, while the other patients looked treated for the probably viralrelated enzyme in the plasma were negative.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Plasma einer Patientin mit Mammacarcinom konnte ein Enzym nachgewiesen werden, welches RNA als Template für die DNA-Synthese heranziehen kann. Dieses Enzym steht in Analogie zur reversen Transcriptase onkogener RNA-Viren und dem aus der Muttermilch isolierten Enzym von Spiegelmanet al. Die mögliche diagnostische Anwendbarkeit dieses Befundes wird diskutiert.
    Notes: Summary In the plasma of a patient with breast cancer, an enzyme was shown that might use natural RNAs as templates for the DNA synthesis. This enzyme is paralleled to the reverse transcriptase of oncogenic RNA viruses and the enzyme of Spiegelmanet al. from particles of human milk. The possible diagnostic implications of these findings are discussed.

    Notes: Summary Twenty-six cycles of high-dose ifosfamide+mesna (HD-IFO+M) were applied to seven female patients with advanced breast cancer refractory to prior treatment, using three different durations of continuous infusion (4, 24, and 48 h) every 3 weeks. To evaluate the most tolerable time schedule, the duration of the infusions was changed periodically in each patient. Toxicity was low in general, but continuous infusion of HD-IFO+M over 24 h appeared to be the best tolerated. On partial response lasting 27 weeks was achieved and four patients achieved stable disease lasting from 9 to 12 weeks.

R schnitt gegenüber M signifikant schlechter ab. Dagegen zeigte M gleich gute Ergebnisse wie RM. Fälle mit Chemotherapie waren gegenüber der Kontrollgruppe signifikant besser dran. Keine Verbesserung brachte die Immunotherapie mit Azimexon.
    Notes: Summary Surgical treatment, partial resection (R) versus modified radical mastectomy (M) and M versus the classical Halsted procedure (RM) as well as adjuvant treatment forms, chemotherapy and chemoimmunotherapy versus an untreated control group were all evaluated in 241 patients, with a median observation time of 30 months. Whereas M showed significantly better results than R, no difference could be observed when comparing M and RM. The disease-free interval was significantly reduced in the control group as compared to patients receiving chemotherapy. No benefit could be detected in patients with immunotherapy (azimexon).
