First Case

Sorafenib is currently the gold standard therapy for palliative treatment of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with compensated liver disease. There are few cases reported in literature describing patients with HCC achieving a complete remission (CR) due to Sorafenib therapy. We report the case of a 62-year old patient who obtained CR despite single, long drug discontinuation and kept it without any maintenance therapy. Furthermore, this is the first case describing the onset of a likely IgG4-related retroperitoneal fibrosis and cholangitis during Sorafenib administration. Further studies are required to define the predictors of a good response to Sorafenib and to codify a therapeutic maintenance regimen for patients who achieve CR.

AbstractObjectivesThe aims were to analyze the clinical features, response to treatment, prognostic factors and long-term follow-up of children and adolescents with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).MethodsEighty patients with DTC were studied retrospectively. All underwent total or near-total thyroidectomy, and in 75 cases, ablative iodine therapy was recommended. Patients were assessed periodically by tests for serum thyroglobulin levels and whole-body iodine scans. Age, gender, initial clinical presentation, histology, tumor stage, postoperative complications, radioiodine treatment protocol, treatment response, thyroglobulin (Tg), recurrence and long-term disease progression were evaluated.ResultsSeventy patients completed >2 years of follow-up (23 males, 47 females; median age: 14 years; range: 3–18 years). Sixty-two patients showed papillary DTC and eight, follicular DTC. Sixty-five percent presented nodal metastasis and 16%, pulmonary metastasis at diagnosis. Six months after first radioiodine treatment, 36.2% of patients were free of disease. Seven recurrences were documented. At the end of follow-up, overall survival was 100%, and 87.2% of patients were in complete remission. Nine patients had persistent disease. We found a significant association between stage 4 and persistent disease. Hundred percent of patients with negative Tg values at 6 months posttreatment were documented free of disease at the end of the follow-up. The analysis of disease-free survival based on radioiodine treatment protocols used showed no statistically significant differences.ConclusionsDTC in children and adolescents is frequently associated with presence of advanced disease at diagnosis. Despite this, complete remission was documented after treatment in most cases, with a good prognosis in the long-term follow-up. Negative posttreatment thyroglobulin and stage 4 at diagnosis were significant prognostic variables.
