BGCS Covid Forum 7th April 2020 Introduction and Welcome• Sudha Sundar, BGCS President• BGCS Covid Forum Chairs John Butler and Sonali Kaushik • Case 1 – Radicality of interval debulking surgery in stage IV ovarian cancer
when extensive cytoreduction can not be performed due to C-19• Presenter - Rasiah Bharathan, Leicester , Lead Discussant – Christina
FotopolouCase 2 - What to do if surgery can not be performed after 6 cycles of NACT?
• Presenter –Rachel Jones, Swansea, Lead Discussant - Agnieszka MichaelCase 3 – Recurrent Vulva cancer post-RT – how to balance the risks of radical surgery, chemotherapy, watch and wait, reirradiation?
• Presenter – Sadaf Ghaem Maghami, Imperial , Lead Discussant – Jason Yap
Summary and Close
Case 1: Approach to IDS during COVIDPresenter - Rasiah Bharathan, Leicester Discussant – Christina Fotopolou, Imperial• PS1• Stage 4 HGSC ( pericardiac nodes )• Ca125 1433 at presentation• IDS cancelled after cycle 4 – Covid• Cycle 5 given• CT• There is improvement in the peritoneal disease ascites as well as in the retroperitoneal
lymphadenopathy. There is improvement in the previously noted splenic lesion. Similarly there is reduction in the right paracardiac node. No evidence of any inguinal, pelvic lymphadenopathy. Previously noted pelvic mass has been removed. No focal parenchymal lung nodule identified. Mediastinal nodes have become smaller with similar improvement in the retroperitoneal nodes. No focal destructive bony lesion seen.
Discussion points – Case 1- Christina Fotopolou
• Continue to 6th cycle of chemo in view of Covid 19?• Proceed with radical debulking procedure at Local Cancer Centre but
no removal of pericardiac nodes (Risks of Covid explained to patient)?• Proceed with limited surgery no bowel resection to reduce covid
risks?
ü Value of IDS after increasing number of NAC cyclesü Value of removal of tumor affected LN in ovarian debulkingsü Omission of bowel surgery to reduce complications?
Impact of number of NAC cycles on survival
Meta-Analysis publications 1989-2005: 22 cohorts / 835 pts with FIGO III-IV ovarian cancer
• all pts had pre-OP platinum-based chemotherapy followed by interval-OP
• Prognostic factors: year, % FIGO IV, % „optimal debulking“, chemotherapy +/- taxanand number of pre-OP chemotherapy courses > 3 –> neg. impact
-4.1 mos. median OS per pre-OP chemo-course > 3 courses
Outcome becomes inferior with longer duration of pre-OP chemotherapy (= longer time with significant tumor volume -> higher risk for resistance ?)

Value of removal of microscopically involved LN: lessons of the LION trial
Presented by: Philipp HarterAGO & KEM
Essen, Germany
• We have learned that patients with complete resection during upfront surgery and treated in quality assured centres can have an excellent prognosis (median OS ~ 67.2 months; median PFS ~ 25.5 months)
• Systematic pelvic and para-aortic LNE in patients with advanced ovarian cancer with both intra-abdominal complete resection and clinically negative LN neither improve overall nor progression-free survival
….despite detecting (and removing) sub-clinical retroperitoneal lymph node metastases in 56% of patients
• Systematic LNE of clinical negative LN in patients with advanced ovarian cancer and complete resection should be omitted.

BackgroundPrimary debulking surgery before initiation of chemotherapy has been the standard of care for patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
MethodsWe randomly assigned patients with stage IIIC or IV epithelial ovarian carcinoma, fallopian-tube carcinoma, or primary peritoneal carcinoma to primary debulking surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy or to neoadjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy followed by debulking surgery (so-called interval debulking surgery).
ResultsOf the 670 patients randomly assigned to a study treatment, 632 (94.3%) were eligible and started the treatment. The majority of these patients had extensive stage IIIC or IV disease at primary debulking surgery (metastatic lesions that were larger than 5 cm in diameter in 74.5% of patients and larger than 10 cm in 61.6%). The largest residual tumor was 1 cm or less in diameter in 41.6% of patients after primary debulking and in 80.6% of patients after interval debulking. Postoperative rates of adverse effects and mortality tended to be higher after primary debulking than after interval debulking. The hazard ratio for death (intention-to-treat analysis) in the group assigned to neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking, as compared with the group assigned to primary debulking surgery followed by chemo-therapy, was 0.98 (90% confidence interval [CI], 0.84 to 1.13; P = 0.01 for non-inferiority), and the hazard ratio for progressive disease was 1.01 (90% CI, 0.89 to 1.15). Complete resection of all macroscopic disease (at primary or interval surgery) was the strongest independent variable in predicting overall survival.
ConclusionsNeoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery was not inferior to primary debulking surgery followed by chemotherapy as a treatment option for patients with bulky stage IIIC or IV ovarian carcinoma in this study. Complete resec-tion of all macroscopic disease, whether performed as primary treatment or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, remains the objective whenever cytoreductive surgery is performed.

Case 2: Patient at 6 cycles of NACT ? Surgery ? Continue
Presenter –Rachel Jones, SwanseaDiscussant - Agnieszka Michael, Royal Surrey
• Lack of HDU beds- patients previously being considered for PDS/IDS are starting SACT
• Continue chemo beyond 6 cycles? – BRCA positive add PARP
• If IDS after 6 cycles should they be offered another couple of cycles?
Discussant - Agnieszka Michael, Royal Surrey
Cytoreductive surgery in ovarian cancer
• meta-analysis- *JCO 2002 March 1; Bristow et al• 6885 pts– FIGO stage III/IV– 53 studies involving platinum-based treatment–Maximum or optimal cytoreductive procedure correlated with
median survival– >75% tumour cytoreduction-median survival 37 m vs 23 moths– Each 10% increase in cytoreduction –increase in median survival of
5.5 %
Maintenance chemotherapy in first line ovarian cancer
• No benefit of continuing platinum chemotherapy – studies that explored the delivery of 8 to 12 cycles of a platinum drug
failed to reveal superior survival outcomes• No benefit of continuing paclitaxel chemotherapy – SWOG /GOG study-conduct a phase 3 randomized trial comparing 3
cycles to 12 cycles of single agent paclitaxel-some PFS survival but no OS;
Increased toxicity
Maintenance PARP inhibitors +/-Bevacizumab
• New data from PRIMA trial –benefit from Niraparib treatment in all women (not CDF approved) –median PFS 21.9m vs 10.4m
• New data PAOLA trial –benefit from maintenance Olaparib and Bevacizumab PFS ITT -22.1 vs 16.6m (bev alone)
• SOLO2 –maintenance Olaparib in BRCA mutated ovarian cancer PFS 19·1 m vs 5·5m
COVID-19
• Assessment of each patient individually • Essential to test all patients for BRCA –germline and somatic (?
Biopsy) • Patients with stage IV disease –maintenance treatment • Patients with primary peritoneal cancer
No easy solution –patients who would benefit from surgery and can not have it will suffer as a result

Case Summary
OPTIONS:1. Chemotherapy to hold disease unwise given RT (Previous RT)2. Repeat RT3. Brachytherapy4. Wait and see5. Consider Posterior exenteration in 6/52 ?when C-19 improved
Challenges1. Recurrence VSCC on a background of radiotherapy field
- potentially limited to chemotherapy +/- surgery- plastic reconstruction challenges- altered anatomy
2. Background medical comorbidities – Cardiovascular, DM, COPD- anaesthetic risks & exposure to COVID19 if surgery now- plastic reconstruction challenges
3. Location of tumour- proximity to vital organs – bladder and anus
4. Rare disease – lack of evidence5. COVID19 outbreak
- highly likely require ITU/HDU bed support post-op- hospital acquired COVID19
Chemo-Radiotherapy & recurrence
• Radiotherapy +/-Cisplatin (61/87)• 3 yrs local recurrence 39% (34/87)• Median recurrence time/death 7.4months• PFS 40% & OS 57% (3 yrs)• Adverse prognostic factors
- Age >68- No previous chemo- primary radiotherapy
• Treatment for recurrence- Surgical resection- If surgery not feasible > palliative
chemo +/- DXT- Palliation only
Systemic treatment in VSCC
• Systematic review of literature on chemotherapy treatment in VSCC
• 5 studies evaluates chemotherapy in recurrence disease after DXT
• 12 studies evaluates resectability after NACT
Read et al.: Summary
• Chemotherapy alone has poor outcomes• Combination chemotherapy may be effective• Improves resectability after chemotherapy
Back to current case – point to note
• Survival is usually good in isolated local VSCC (5-yr survival ~60%), Nooij et al 2016 (PMID: 27637349)
• NACT may be of benefit in current COVID19 outbreak• Consider using combination chemotherapy if tolerable• Potentially reduce size of tumour and reduce surgical morbidities
or need for exenteration or extensive plastic reconstruction• Palliative chemo+/-DXT or symptom control is an alternative• Did patient have BGLND already? If not, GLND should be
considered if surgical treatment
