    (2014) Odabas, Hatice; Ozdemir, Nuriye Yildirim; Ziraman, Ipek; Aksoy, Sercan; Abali, Huseyin; Oksuzoglu, Berna; Isik, Metin; Civelek, Burak; Dede, Dogan; Zengin, Nurullah; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5596-0920; 23978939; D-7660-2016
    Subcutaneous central venous port catheters (SCVPC) are of great importance in the treatment of patients with malignancies since they provide secure vascular access. Our aim was to assess the impact of long-term catheter care frequency on the frequency of port-related complications. Two hundred and seven patients who had not been on active chemotherapy through their SCVPC for at least 3 months were enrolled into the study. Those who received catheter care every 3 months or more frequently were assigned to the frequent care group, and the others to the infrequent care group. The patients were examined for port-related complications and thrombosis including port occlusion. Routinely in our clinic, catheter care was done by using 300 IU of heparin. According to the frequency of SCVPC care, 49 (23.7 %) patients were in the frequent care group and 158 (76.3 %) were in the infrequent care group. Median follow-up of all patients was 671 days (range 133-1712). Median frequency of port care in the frequent care group was 90 days (range 30-90), but 441.5 days in the infrequent care group (range 91-1630). None of the patients experienced port-related severe complications during the follow-up time. None of them presented with port occlusion. When the groups were analysed for thrombus (symptomatic and asymptomatic), there was no statistically significant difference (6.4 vs 13.8 %, p = 0.17). Those patients who had received more than first-line chemotherapy were found to have more thrombi than the patients who were treated with only one type of chemotherapy protocol (28.6 vs 10.2 %, p = 0.01), and the patients who had metastatic disease at the last control were found out to have thrombi more frequently than the non-metastatic patients (24.3 vs 9.3 %) (p = 0.01). In the present study, there was no difference in port-related severe complications between frequent and infrequent care groups during follow-up. However, the rate of thrombosis was slightly higher in the infrequent port care group.

    Docetaxel, Cisplatin, and Fluorouracil Combination in Neoadjuvant Setting in The Treatment of Locally Advanced Gastric Adenocarcinoma: Phase II NEOTAX Study
    (2014) Ozdemir, Nuriye; Abali, Huseyin; Vural, Murat; Yalcin, Suayib; Oksuzoglu, Berna; Civelek, Burak; Oguz, Dilek; Bostanci, Birol; Yalcin, Bulent; Zengin, Nurullah; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5596-0920; 25234436; D-7660-2016
    This phase II trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of docetaxel, cisplatin, and fluorouracil (DCF) combination in neoadjuvant setting in patients with locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma. Fifty-nine patients with resectable or unresectable locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal cancer were recruited in this multicenter, single-arm, open-label, local clinical phase II study conducted at three centers from Turkey between June 2006 and March 2012. Patients had T3-4 or lymph node-positive disease. After staging with imaging and laparotomy or laparoscopy, they received three cycles of DCF with lenograstim. Imaging studies were repeated after the last two cycles. Patients who underwent surgery were followed up for at least 1 year after the surgery. Toxicity and response were evaluated in accordance with NCI-CTC version3.0 and RECIST 1.0. At baseline, 66.1 % of patients were considered resectable. In 47 patients evaluable, partial response in 16 (34.0 %), stable disease in 27 (57.5 %), and progressive disease in four (8.5 %) were observed. Forty-six patients underwent surgery. In 38 (64.4 %; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 52.2-76.6 %) out of 59 patients, complete resection (R0) was achieved. Median overall and disease-free survival were 19.1 months (95 % CI 13.5-24.7) and 11.6 months (95 % CI 5.9-17.4), respectively. The most frequent grade 3-4 adverse events were neutropenia (52.5 %), febrile neutropenia (11.9 %), leukopenia (39.0 %), and diarrhea (10.5 %). One patient died from an unknown cause. Classical DCF triplet with lenograstim showed a good clinical response with acceptable safety profile in the treatment of locally advanced gastric and gastroesophageal cancer with a significant R0 rate and manageable toxicity.

    Comparison of Gemcitabine Monotherapy with Gemcitabine and Cisplatin Combination in Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer: A Retrospective Analysis
    (2018) Ergun, Yakup; Ozdemir, Nuriye Yildirim; Guner, Ebru Karci; Esin, Ece; Sendur, Mehmet Ali; Koksoy, Elif Berna; Demirci, Nebi Serkan; Eren, Tulay; Dede, Isa; Sezer, Ahmet; Engin, Huseyin; Oksuzoglu, Berna; Yalcin, Bulent; Utkan, Gungor; Zengin, Nurullah; Urun, Yuksel; 30722120
    Purpose: Gemcitabine is among the standard first-line agents for the treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer. However, as the median survival with gemcitabine monotherapy is 6 months, different combinations are being studied for better, prolonged survival. In this multicenter study, we aimed to compare the results of gemcitabine monotherapy with those of gemcitabine and cisplatin combination therapy as first-line treatments for metastatic pancreatic cancer. Methods: Data of 664 patients diagnosed with metastatic pancreatic cancer between January 2007 and December 2016 from seven oncology centers in Turkey were retrospectively evaluated, and 319 patients with gemcitabine alone (n=138) or gemcitabine and cisplatin combination (n=181) as first-line treatment were included. Results: The median patient age was 62 years (range 42-79), being 60 years (42-75) in the gemcitabine/cisplatin arm and 67 years (52-79) in gemcitabine alone arm. no complete response was observed in either arm, whereas partial response rates were 30.1% in gemcitabine/cisplatin arm and 15.3% in gemcitabine alone arm (p=0.001). median overall survival was 8 months (95% CI:7.7-10.2) and was significantly longer in the gemcitabine/cisplatin arm than in the gemcitabine alone arm (10 vs. 6 months, p=0.004). Conclusion: The cemcitabine and cisplatin combination therapy as first-line treatment of metastatic pancreatic cancer yields significantly prolonged survival over gemcitabine monotherapy. In patients with favorable performance conditions, the combination therapy should be preferred.
