    Introduction: Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) is an antibody-drug conjugate and its survival advantage has been shown in advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. However, clinical trials underrepresent patients > 65 years of age, leading to a lack of information in this population. We analyzed the real-world outcomes of older women who were treated with T-DM1 therapy. Methods: We performed a multicenter, observational, retrospective analysis of patients aged > 65 years treated with T-DM1. A total of 93 patients from 10 cancer centers were involved in the study. Our goal was to determine the survival, response rates, and toxicity profile in T-DM1-treated patients, as well as the factors that influence survival. Results: Median follow-up was 12.2 months. Objective response rate was 29%. Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 8.47 and 15.0 months, respectively. In multivariate analysis, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Score 2 was found to be an independent prognostic factor for worse PFS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.81, p = 0.032) and OS (HR 2.33, p = 0.006). Any adverse event (AE) was seen in 92.5% of patients; grade 3 or 4 AEs were seen in 30.1%. Dose reduction or treatment discontinuation rates were 11.8% and 6.5%, respectively. Conclusion: The efficacy of T-DM1 was acceptable and it was generally well-tolerated among older patients with advanced HER2-positive breast cancer.

    Purpose We aimed to assess the prognostic and predictive significance of pretreatment Onodera's prognostic nutritional index (OPNI) in metastatic non-small cell lung cancer patients (NSCLC) treated with first-line chemotherapy. Materials and methods Patients with metastatic NSCLC who attended five different medical oncology clinics between December 2008 and January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off point for OPNI was performed by a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Patients were assigned to either the low OPNI group or high OPNI group. Results A total of 333 patients were included in the study. Significant differences between the low and high OPNI groups were found regarding the rates of response to chemotherapy, sex, and hemoglobin level (p < 0.05). The patients in high OPNI group had a longer overall survival (OS) (15.3 vs. 10.6 months, p < 0.001) and progression-free survival (PFS) (6.7 vs. 5.3 months, p < 0.001) compared to the patients in low OPNI group. A multivariate analysis using Cox regression model revealed that a high OPNI score was an independent prognostic factor of OS (HR = 1.535, p = 0.002) and PFS (HR = 1.336, p = 0.014), but failed to demonstrate a statistical significance of pretreatment OPNI scores in predicting treatment response (p = 0.56). Conclusions Pretreatment OPNI is an independent prognostic factor for OS and PFS in metastatic NSCLC patients treated with first-line chemotherapy. Thus, it may be used as easily calculated and low-cost prognostic tool in the routine clinical practice in this patient group.
