3.Documentation archiving in clinical data management.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2015;50(11):1410-1414
ICH GCP requires that all information of clinical trial should be recorded, processed, and stored in a way that allows the accurate reporting, interpretation and verification. A trial master file (TMF) contains all paper or electronic records/documentations related to a clinical trial. As a tool of the retrospective analysis, the TMF profile should be able to reproduce the full procedure of the trial completely. As a part of TMF profiles, both the accuracy and completeness of clinical data management documentation are important in data integrity. It is helpful to learn the workflow of clinical data management in different stage of a clinical trial, to understand which documents are essential, and why the documentation of clinical data management is important for data integrity. This paper elaborates how to perform the good documentation practice of clinical data management, and suggests that both the precise and efficient document management and regular quality control may ensure the high quality of clinical data documentation management on the basis of an intensive awareness of the overall process of clinical data management.

Objective To investigate the different distribution of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and CD8+T cells in the local immune microenvironment of mucosal malignant melanoma and cutaneous malignant melanoma, and analyze the relationship between the two indicators and the prognosis of patients. Methods Immunohistochemistry staining was used to assess the ex?pression of Foxp3+Tregs and CD8+T cells in tumor microenvironment of 58 patients with malignant melanoma. The correlation between two factors, clinicopathological characteristics, and prognosis were analyzed. Results There is no correlation be?tween the expression of Foxp3 and CD8. The number of Foxp3+Tregs was significantly higher in mucosa malignant melanoma than that in cutaneous malignant melanoma (t=2.648, P=0.011). The proportion of Foxp3highTregs was significantly higher in pa?tients with tumor diameter≥3 cm, lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis than that in patients with tumor diameter<3 cm, no lymph node metastasis and no distant metastasis (P<0.05). In addition, in patients with ulceration that proportion was significantly higher in CD8high group than that in patients without ulceration (33.3%vs 5.9%, P<0.05). The median progres?sion-free surial (PFS) was 12 months in Foxp3high group, which was significantly longer than that of Foxp3low group (31 months, P<0.05). The median PFS was significantly higher in CD8high group (25 months) than that of CD8low group (12 months, P<0.05). Subgroup analysis showed that the median PFS was 7 months in Foxp3high CD8low group, which was significantly lower than that of Foxp3highCD8high group (25 months) and Foxp3lowCD8low group (18 months, P=0.003). Univariate analysis showed that median PFS was different in patients with different tumor location, different number of Foxp3+Treg, different number of CD8+T cells, and distant metastases. Conclusion The number of Tregs is closely associated with metastasis in patients with malig?nant melanoma. Compared with cutaneous malignant melanoma, our results indicate that the poor prognosis of mucosal malig?nant melanoma may be associated with the infiltration of more Tregs.

Objective To evaluate a combination therapy for huge tumors in the buttocks.Methods A total of 11 patients from our hospital were collected,among them 5 cases were of hemangioma,4 cases of neurofibroma,2 cases of soft tissue sarcoma.Before definite surgical resection all cases received tumor embolization with silk thread and gelatin-sponge article using Seldinger's technic.Subsequently,all patients underwent a successful tumor resection. Results Superselective embolization for all the cases'feeding arteries resulted in recession of the tumors and relatively well-demarcated margins,and all the lumps became softer.and the local pain was alleviated.Surgical resection could be radical with avoidance of fatal intraoperative hemorrhage.The 5 cases of hemangioma had a average operative bleeding of 450 ml,4 cases of neurofibroma had 420 ml,2 cases of soft tissue sarcoma had 150 ml.No patients needed intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion.The operation time was about 2-3 hours,the normal tissues were preserved and the contour and function of the diseased limbs were very good.One case had a delayed incision healing,and the others had a healing by the first intention.There was no recurrence and other complications (like deep venous thrombosis)during a follow-up period of 4-8 months. Conclusions Surgical resection combined with interventional embolism for the treatment of huge tumors in the buttocks can reduce the risk of bleeding effectively during operation.It can improve the success rate of operation leading to satisfactory results.

Objective:This study aimed to analyze the factors affecting the outcome of cancer pain in patients with moderate and severe chronic cancer pain for clinical decision making. Methods: Data were collected from 426 cancer patients with moderate and severe chronic cancer pain, and the factors affecting pain treatment were analyzed. Results:A total of 85.6%of patients had good pain control in 3 days (NRS≤3). Multivariate logistic regression models showed that the pain of patients with bone metastases (P=0.026), breakthrough pain after stable pain control (P<0.001), and high MEDD (P<0.001) was poorly controlled. Moreover, age, sex, TNM stage, cause of pain, and medication ladder were not risk factors of pain control (P>0.05). Opioid combination with NSAIDs contributed to easier pain control (P=0.024). Digestive system tumors, pain intensity, limb pain, neuropathic pain, use of transdermal fentanyl matrix patch, multiple metastases in stage-IV patients were suggested to be risk factors of pain control in univariate logistic regression models (P<0.05). Conclusion: Bone metastases, breakthrough pain after pain relief, and high dose of MEDD were independent risk factors. Opioid combination with NSAIDs was a protective factor of pain control.
