David Saiia, co-founder and CEO of Reuse Everything Institute, suggests reusing plastic rather than recycling it Editor's note: David Saiia, co-founder and CEO of Reuse Everything Institute, Inc. (REII), an NGO dedicated to developing and promoting better resource use including the reuse of plastic waste, discussed Vietnam's plastic problem in an email interview with Tuoi Tre News. Saiia, who holds a Ph.D. in strategic management, is currently a visiting professor in the faculty of international education of Duy Tan University in the central city of Da Nang, where he has lived for three years. From the point of view of an environmentalist, could you share with us why plastic is bad for the environment? Plastic is a persistent waste product that takes a very long time to biodegrade. Plastic presents an immediate threat to marine life when it is mistaken for food and eaten, causing death by choking and digestive obstruction. Plastic continues to break down into … [Read more...] about Vietnam should make plastic material too valuable to throw out: expert

Việt Nam, China trade ties continue to develop
Officers of Cốc Nam Customs Department in Lạng Sơn Province, which shares a border with China, perform a check on imported products. — VNA/VNS Photo Hoàng Hùng HÀ NỘI — Economic and trade relations between Việt Nam and China have been developing in a positive direction, as shown by the continuous increase of bilateral trade turnover between the two countries. Việt Nam is fast becoming an attractive investment destination for Chinese enterprises. According to the Foreign Investment Agency under the Ministry of Planning and Investment, China invested about US$1.6 billion in Việt Nam in the first fourth months of this year, making it the country's fourth largest source of foreign investment. Several large projects were funded by Chinese investors in the period including a tire manufacturing project with total registered capital of $280 million in the southern province of Tây Ninh and another tire … [Read more...] about Việt Nam, China trade ties continue to develop
Vietnam's U22s play out thrilling draw against Thailand at SEA Games 30
Striker Tien Linh (No. 22) The game got off to a dramatic start, with three goals coming inside the first 15 minutes. Thailand struck early following a basic error by Vietnamese goalkeeper Van Toan in the fifth minute. The goalkeeper, who had been selected over Bui Tien Dung, made a basic mistake when an attempted clearance hit Thai footballer Supachai, causing the ball to deflect into the Vietnamese net. Things went from bad to worse just six minutes later as Suphanat struck to give Thailand a 2-0 lead. Despite the unfavourable circumstances, the Vietnamese team showed great determination and never gave up. They managed to find a way back into the game in the 15th minute when Thanh Thinh crossed to Tien Linh who headed the ball into the Thai net. With Vietnam losing 2-1 at half-time, Ho Tan Tai was replaced by Ha Duc Chinh. The second half saw Vietnam chasing the game and going on the attack. This pressure eventually led to a penalty in the 71st minute, with Tien Linh equalising … [Read more...] about Vietnam's U22s play out thrilling draw against Thailand at SEA Games 30
Efforts made to overcome disaster consequences
The participating forces were also requested to closely follow developments of the storm and work with local authorities and agencies to double-check dams and important dyke sections in order to respond quickly to possible incidents and ensure safety for local people. Meanwhile, military units in storm-hit areas were urged to treat wounded people, inquire after families who lost their relatives during the storm, mobilize local forces and people to repair damaged roads, houses, telecommunications and irrigation systems, clean up the environment, and prevent possible epidemics. a trawler fished out in Ha Tinh * The Vung Ang - Son Duong Port Border Guard Station under the Ha Tinh provincial Border Guard Command on July 18 successfully fished out three trawlers earlier sunk by strong waves and winds while docking in Son Duong port.

Companies follow Government lead, set cautious growth targets
Construction company Becamex IDC Corp has been cautious about this year's business targets. Photo batdongsan.com.vn Compiled by Thiên Lý Construction company Becamex IDC Corp has been cautious about this year's business targets. Its consolidated turnover target is only VNĐ1.226 trillion (US$53.3 million), or 96 per cent of last year's figure, and after-tax profit target is VNĐ252 billion, only 8 per cent higher than last year. In a document already sent to the company's shareholders ahead of the annual general meeting, its general director, Đỗ Quang Ngôn, explained the reasons for setting such moderate growth targets. He said the real estate market is facing an imbalance between supply and demand in certain segments, and credit to the property sector is drying up. Externally, the global economy is expected to see a lot of volatility this year and likely to have a strong impact on the Vietnamese economy, he said … [Read more...] about Companies follow Government lead, set cautious growth targets

Thanks so much! Great to be back! Looking forward to trying some new things soon!
Great to be back and thanks!!! Great to be back and thanks so much!!
Hi Red ochre! Yes, I'm still playing jazz, doing close-up magic and juggling as well. Been playing my Didgeridoo too! Hahahaha, lots of fun in retirement from teaching. Lately I've been playing in two local musical productions, "Guys and Dolls" and "Wonderful Town" bot fun and a real challenge! Tomorrow I'll be going to New York City to see a former student of mine who is playing drums and leading the band on a new Broadway show called "Tappin' Thru Life" staring Maurice Hines. I'm really looking forward to it. As soon as the shows I'm playing are over I'm heading into some of the local elementary schools to demonstrate the Didgeridoo for several music classes then later in the spring I head all over NY state to judge All-State Jazz auditions. Keeping busy and enjoying it. Practicing my trumpet, my close-up card and coin magic and a little juggling everyday. Hope you're doing well and thanks so much for your help and inspiration here on pdn. I don't know how you do it but keep on doing it!! I appreciate all that you do, great to hear from you!
I have returned to PDN! Hooray!
cweber54 posted a topic in The PictoriumAfter a long time away I'm happy to be back on PDN. I have to do lots of relearning but I have at least started! Hooray! Yesterday I did some juggling practice and really was using my head! Whoops, dropped one, I should have stuck with just three! Any comments, advice is always appreciated. Thanks!
I'm back after a long time away.
CustomBrushesMini v2.2
cweber54 replied to Simon Brown's topic in Plugins - Publishing ONLY!Having trouble installing Custom Brushes. Do I use the Custom Brushes Plugin by Brown? If so where and how do I install it? I tried pasting the dll file into the smudge brushes and the effects folder but it didn't seem to work. If anyone could give me a little help I would appreciate it. Thanks!
Exploding planetsI really like this tutorial! Here I used a picture I took last summer of mushrooms in an outdoor market in Chinatown, New York City. It turned out to be perfect for this tutorial! I like the big chunks. Thanks again for this tutorial, it's a winner.
Great job Daniels! I like the shading and the stars are awesome. How do you get those great stars in your background. Check out my attempts (post #9) if you would and I'm always open to suggestions. Thanks, cweber54
Thanks MikeRobe. I'll have another go at it tomorrow. Looking forward to trying your ideas. I want to add colors for sure and I'll get the hang of the cloud thing. I'm sure it will be awesome and thanks again for the reply. Here's another take with some added colors and glow. I'm getting the idea and I'll keep at it. Thanks! Another take on your tutorial I tried today. I like to think I'm improving. Looks better every time! This time I went a little easier on all the colors and went without the object outline on the land and added some smudge when I first colored in the land. I was after a kind of sand bar/beaches effect. It's looking way less cartoon-like and lots more realistic then my first attempts. Next time I want to do more with the ocean and try to get some aqua blue lagoon effects going. It's been a fun learning process.
This is an excellent tutorial and I enjoyed learning from it. I had a little trouble with the clouds when I first made them. When I used dents the clouds extended beyond the planet and didn't curve around the planet. I also didn't go to overlay on the land and ocean variation layers because for some reason when I did it took the shading away? I was wondering if you could tell me what I might have done wrong. I want to keep at this tutorial and improve on what I've learned and get it better. Next time I want to add some tan (beach) outline to some of the land mass. I think that would make it look even better. Thanks for any input and suggestions and thanks for sharing this great tutorial.
100% Paint.net Planet TutorialI really learned a great deal from this tutorial. Enjoyed it very much. Here's something I had some fun making. I call it Planet Oatmeal because I used a picture I took of boiling oatmeal to make the planet template. Added some color and the rest was learning your method of adding the glows and the gradient. Awesome tutorial, I'll keep working on it. Thanks!
Thanks for the recommendation EER! I thought the 100% PDN Planet tut you suggested was excellent and it really helped me get a grip on the whole inner/outer glow idea as well as the gradient use. I've looked at a couple other tuts as well that are similar and helpful too. Thanks again and here is what I came up with today as I was working on the glow/gradients. Always appreciate your input.
Thanks welshblue and I'm looking forward to using Neon again and to more of your great tutorials! Thanks for the reply and helping me getting squared away with the text question. I;'m getting ready for another foot of snow tonight here in upstate New York. Ugh! But and get some good photos of the snow. Thanks again , have a great day!
Hello Welshblue, Hey great tut!! I'm very new to PDN and photo editing in general. I'm really enjoying this very much and I've learned a ton of things in just the couple of weeks that I've been doing this. I thought I would try to combine a few things I learned like Removing and image from the background (My little dog Eddie), Making a Moon (I learned that one yesterday) and this awesome Text tut of yours. Eddie likes his little moon so he made a sign on it to claim his territory! Hahaha! Anyway, I had a couple little problems like the Vignette was too dark on my moon background so I just didn't do that step. I got confused with the Duplicate the Text layer>>Select the Text>>add new layer and Run Bevel Selection. I get the duplicating the layer but I ended up selecting text one letter at a time with the magic wand and I wasn't sure which layer to select the text from? It took several tries with different levels to get the Run Bevel to have an effect so I knew I was doing something wrong. Maybe you could help me get squared away with this step. The rest I think I held my own pretty well. My result didn't come out as bright in the middle part of the letters as I thought it would but I'll give it more tries for sure. Thanks for any input and advice you can send in my direction, and thanks for sharing such an awesome tut!
Yes, Thanks, I kind of liked the crater rim effect as well. I was happy with that. Next I would like to try an Earthlike Planet with land mass and water etc. Any suggestions on a basic tut for hat? I looked at "Advancedish Planet" and it was super but I thought something a little more basic might be better for me right now to get the idea. I saw a youtube tut called something like "Professional Looking Planet" but it was so fast and so small I couldn't follow it very well. I'll keep looking and of course any suggestions are welcome!

The first tree budded in our yard yesterday, and my daughter was ecstatic. "Mom!" she cried. "Look how beautiful!" I was struck by the way her joy spilled over into my own heart. I stood for a moment in awe of new life. Fresh beginnings. The promise of spring made visible. As we were getting ready for Easter, a season of renewal, it was the unbridled excitement my daughter displayed that let me experience joy in a new and unexpected way.
And suddenly, I was reminded of the empty tomb and the childlike wonder of those who witnessed it—who stood at the entrance of the place where just hours before, the turning point in history had happened: human feet on holy ground. Hearts filled with the utter delight of God's love made visible in a way that it had never been before.
That's what I want on Easter Sunday. Even more than egg hunts and chocolates and new dresses (which are all delightful!) I want to be filled with His joy in a new way, and let it spill out everywhere.
And I believe the children in our lives have a lot to teach us about joy.
Jesus knew it, too:
He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."Matthew 18:2-3 NIV
Be humble:
Children ask questions. They haven't yet convinced themselves that they're self-sufficient beings who should know most everything. If we've been following Christ for awhile, we're likely very familiar with the facts about Easter morning. We feel safe knowing the answers and sometimes we let that be enough. But what if we ask God for more this year? Ask Him to nudge us out of our comfort zones into new experiences of His resurrection life? Sure, we can celebrate those cherished traditions, but let's show up with anticipation too—trusting Him to do a new thing.
Leave room for wonder:
One of the surest routes to authentic praise is to sink our roots deep in the wonder of life, as our children do naturally. Genuine gratitude springs from being present in the moment, aware of even the simplest joys. This Easter season, consider revisiting (or beginning) that gratitude journal. The more blessings you discover, the more you will be filled with praise for the One who provided them. As you reflect on the empty tomb, your heart will be worship-full!
Share the joy:
"Did you see that?" "Watch this!" "Look close, Mama!" Our little ones often express their feelings without filters. They want to draw us in to their experience so that we can share their excitement. But we grown-ups sometimes forget how wonderful shared joy can be. We assume others wouldn't understand or won't be interested in our experience. However, it is very likely there are people in our lives right now who desperately need a renewed sense of hope. As you celebrate the resurrection this year, allow that joy to spill over. Whatever it looks like for you, share the joy you've found in Christ with those around you—not because you have to, but because you just can't help yourself!
So let us come to Him this Easter as His children, with open hearts and willing hands, to love and serve in whatever way He leads us. As we envision the empty tomb and celebrate that eternal freedom we have been given, let's not keep this joy to ourselves. Let's be a part of bringing His Kingdom here, today—transforming this world with His healing love, one precious heart at a time.

- S'well
- The world is facing an extreme trash crisis.
- Single-use plastic, including water bottles, straws, and bags, contribute to much of the pollution worldwide.
- Having a "zero waste starter kit" on hand can make it easier to say no to single-use items.
We are in the midst of a mega trash crisis. In 2016, more than 480 billion plastic bottles were sold worldwide. Nearly 2 million plastic bags are used per minute. Takeout orders make up around 269,000 tons of plastic waste that's entered our oceans.
While there's serious debate about who is responsible for this mess, there's no doubt that consumers can help to be part of the solution by consciously consuming less.
The zero-waste movement embodies this ideology; those who practice zero waste aim to use less, reuse what they have, and find alternatives to single-use products that have become ubiquitous around the world (hi, plastic straws). While any zero waster will tell you that it's impossible to be perfect – sometimes you simply can't avoid plastic packaging – the goal is to change everyday behaviors to become more sustainable.
Perhaps it's ironic to be sharing a guide of things to buy when the end goal is to be buying less, but consider this a beginner's manual to starting your zero-waste journey. You probably have many of the items listed below, and if that's the case, use them!
Hopefully this list will inspire you to set up your own "waste less" kit that you can keep close. When you go out into the world prepared, it'll be easier to use fewer single-use items while enjoying all the wonderful things this life has to offer.

A reusable water bottle
- source
- S'well
S'well Vacuum Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle, from $33.75, available at Amazon (price varies by color)
This one's a given. A reusable water bottle will prevent you from buying plastic bottles or using plastic cups. And, while "water" sure is in the name, you can use these vessels to hold pretty much any liquid, so long as you're willing to clean it.
There's no need to go fancy here: If you're down with toting a glass mason jar around or still have your Nalgene bottle from summer camp, those both make great options. If you're in search of an upgrade, however, there are plenty of options that manage to be hip, cute and stylish, even though we're still talking about a water bottle.
S'well bottles are among the more popular brands on the market. They're beloved for their sleek design, their ability to keep drinks hot or cold, and their condensation-free exterior.
A reusable mug or thermos
- source
- Amazon
Contigo Autoseal West Loop Stainless Steel Travel Mug, from $14.39, available at Amazon (price varies by color)
If you're a big coffee or tea drinker, or if you hold meetings at cafes, a reusable mug of some sort should be in your starter pack. Chances are you have a ceramic mug at home. If you mostly stick to hot beverages in the office, you might be fine to keep this mug on your desk and call it a day.
If you're an out-of-office beverage drinker, however, a thermos could serve your starter pack well. Contigo thermoses are a household fave because of their impeccably sealed lids (no drips!) and bewildering power to keep hot drinks scorching for hours.
A set of wooden cutlery
- source
- Amazon
Tatuo Bamboo Cutlery Flatware Set (2-pack), from $13.99, available at Amazon
Fancy you with your own set of cutlery! This is the antidote to plastic straws, forks, and knives (and in this case, chopsticks!). Keeping this little pack with you at all times means you'll never have to stoop to using flimsy plastic soup spoons and you can be the kind of person who refuses silverware from your takeout order.
This particular cutlery set comes with a little straw cleaner, meaning you won't have to guess at whether your straw is actually clean or not. As a two-pack, you might keep one set at the office and the other in your bag or car.
A cloth napkin
- source
- Amazon
MEEMA Cotton Cloth Napkins Set (4-pack), $24, available at Amazon
An old hand towel should do the trick here, but for a little luxury, check out this cute pack of washable napkins. The average American uses an estimated 2,200 standard 2-ply napkins every year. That's a lot of preventable, single-use waste. Having a rotation of cloth napkins on hand means you can wash the dirty ones and keep yourself clean without trashing the environment.
A tote bag
- source
- Amazon
BeeGreen Foldable Grocery Tote Bag, from $12.99, available at Amazon
A tote bag is more than a bag to tote: It's a statement piece that says, "I'm cool and I care." Whether you want to give off intellectual vibes by hauling a bag stamped with the name of a prestigious publication or you want to world to know you adore porcupines, a tote bag can share the message.
More importantly, a tote bag is invaluable to always have on hand because it makes it easier to avoid using plastic bags, a serious environmental offender. The packable tote bag reigns supreme for this purpose because you can attach it to your purse, briefcase or keys, making spontaneous shopping stops possible without giving in to plastic.

Leafico Drawstring Produce Storage Bags (12-pack), $17.87, available at Amazon
It'd be wise to store some other bags within your tote bag – you'll find them useful for carrying produce from the grocery store and keeping any precious items separate from your stinky gym sneakers. You can of course look to your stockpile of tote bags for this, but if you'd like to start fresh, these canvas satchels are great for carrying fresh bakery bread (refuse the paper bag that usually comes with it) and everything else.
Some carryout tins

Bruntmor Nesting Stainless Steel Food Containers, $13.95, available at Amazon
Upgrade your stockpiles takeout containers to something more mature: These stainless steel containers hit all the sweet spots for packed lunches and taking home leftovers. (Seriously, you can ask your server to put your food in your container rather than a rinky dink plastic tub.)
This handsome set is equipped with leak-proof lids and because the containers fit inside each other, they can help alleviate some of your storage woes.
A menstrual cup

Dutchess Menstrual Cup (2-pack), $15.99, available at Amazon
People with periods have the right to use any type of hygiene product they'd like to care for their monthly flow. But if you're interested in finding a way that produces less waste than conventional products like tampons or pads, a menstrual cup could be a good option for you.
The Dutchess Cup is a fan favorite for its comfortable fit, latex-free material and leak-proof powers. The cup comes in different sizes for bodies both pre- and post-childbirth, so make sure to select the one that's right for you.
Bar soap

Dr. Bronner's Pure-Castile Bar Soap (6-pack), $26.40, available at Amazon
Bar soap, people. It's in again. While this is a sensitive subject for body-wash apologists, bar soap undeniably produces less waste than liquid gels that use hard-to-recycle plastic materials.
Evidence shows that bar soap cleans just as well as body wash, so there really aren't any excuses. Try choosing a bar that isn't wrapped in plastic, like one of Dr. Bronner's that comes in cardboard and many fun, fresh scents.

Dilbert is a comic strip by pot-addled high-IQ pupeteer Scott Adams. The strip is highly successful because it attempts to satirize every possible scenario in the business world.
Dilbert is popular among cubicle dwellers because they can identify with being a worthless wage slave at the bottom rung of the corporate ladder. Ironically, they are worthless wage slaves at the bottom rung of the corporate ladder because they waste all their time reading Dilbert instead of advancing their careers by getting shit done, taking it up the ass from superiors and helping people in senior management bury dead hookers every now and then.
TV show
The TV show is still about the business world, therefore it is still unfunny. Trying to cash in on the success of Family Guy and Futurama, the show lacked the ability to make people laugh, as well as having an overly prominent musical score that sounded like it was orchestrated by a bunch of clowns with Down's Syndrome. The show's only redeeming quality was the diabolical Dogbert, who fucked with Dilbert all the time and frequently used humans as guinea pigs in his cash-grabbing scams.
The show got canceled after only 2 or 3 seasons and is now widely forgotten about, except by the faggots who thought it was funny in the first place.
Moar Dilbert Strips
Dilbert is possibly the most exploitable comic ever. Due to the lack of word bubbles, dialogue has essentially no length constraints.

We present Lyα and UV-nebular emission line properties of bright Lyα emitters (LAEs) at z = 6-7 with a luminosity of log LLyα/[erg s-1] = 43-44 identified in the 21 deg2 area of the SILVERRUSH early sample developed with the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam survey data. Our optical spectroscopy newly confirms 21 bright LAEs with clear Lyα emission, and contributes to making a spectroscopic sample of 96 LAEs at z = 6-7 in SILVERRUSH. From the spectroscopic sample, we select seven remarkable LAEs as bright as Himiko and CR7 objects, and perform deep Keck/MOSFIRE and Subaru/nuMOIRCS near-infrared spectroscopy reaching the 3 σ flux limit of ∼2 × 10-18 erg s-1 for the UV-nebular emission lines of He II λ1640, CIV λλ1548,1550, and OIII]λλ1661,1666. Except for one tentative detection of C IV, we find no strong UV-nebular lines down to the flux limit, placing the upper limits of the rest-frame equivalent widths (EW0) of ∼2-4 A for CIV, He II, and OIII] lines. We also investigate the VLT/X-SHOOTER spectrum of CR7 whose 6 σ detection of He II is claimed by Sobral et al. Although two individuals and the ESO archive service carefully reanalyzed the X-SHOOTER data that are used in the study of Sobral et al., no He II signal of CR7 is detected, supportive of weak UV-nebular lines of the bright LAEs even for CR7. The spectral properties of these bright LAEs are thus clearly different from those of faint dropouts at z ∼ 7 that have strong UV-nebular lines shown in the various studies. Comparing these bright LAEs and the faint dropouts, we find anti-correlations between the UV-nebular line EW0 and the UV-continuum luminosity, which are similar to those found at z ∼ 2-3.

066, but because of its 100% natural abundance, the overall relative sensitivity of 31 P is about 375 times that of 13 C. Thus, acquisition of phosphorous NMR spectra is relatively easy. The internal standard generally used for measuring 31 P chemical shifts is 85% H3 PO4. When in the structural vicinity of a fluorine substituent, phosphorous chemical shifts can be significantly affected by the presence of fluorine substituents but not in the way one might think. In contrast to the intuitive expectation based upon the inductive effect of fluorine, which results in the deshielding of protons and carbons in their vicinity, the effect of proximal fluorine upon the chemical shifts of phosphorous compounds is to shield the phosphorous nuclei.
The fluorine and proton NMR spectra of all three difluorobenzenes are representative of the appearance of second-order spectra of polyfluoroaromatics. 22. 12 The symmetry of this molecule makes the fluorines chemically equivalent but not magnetically equivalent. 17) helps one understand this situation. 16. 17.

- Pages: 603-606
Aprepitant, a neurokinin-1 receptor antagonist, is effective for the prevention of both acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in patients receiving highly emetic chemotherapy (HEC) and moderately emetic chemotherapy (MEC), when administered with a serotonin receptor antagonist and dexamethasone (1–4). In numerous anti-emetic treatment guidelines, aprepitant is recommended for patients receiving HEC and MEC (5). Fosaprepitant dimeglumine, a phosphorylated analog of aprepitant, is rapidly converted to aprepitant following intravenous administration. A randomized control trial demonstrated that a one-time intravenous infusion of fosaprepitant was non-inferior to 3 day oral administration of aprepitant, when combined with dexamethasone and ondansetron (6). Based on these results, fosaprepitant has been widely replacing aprepitant in the prophylactic treatment of CINV as a result of its convenience.
However, it has been recently reported that the incidences of infusion site adverse events, including infusion site pain, swelling, erythema, induration and itching, have increased, particularly in chemotherapy regimens including anthracyclines, by using fosaprepitant compared with aprepitant. These problems were not highlighted in the randomized trial comparing aprepitant and fosaprepitant (6). Currently, no consensus regarding the risk of infusion site adverse events associated with fosaprepitant exist and major guidelines do not mention this problem.
At St. Marianna University (Kawasaki, Japan), all chemotherapy regimens, including anti-emetic prophylactic treatments, are approved based on the evidence level following review by the cancer treatment committee, and are registered in the computer ordering system. Oral aprepitant in HEC regimens was uniformly replaced by fosaprepitant soon after fosaprepitant was approved in Japan. In the present retrospective analysis, infusion site adverse events were retrospectively compared between the periods of 3 months prior to and 3 months following switching from aprepitant to fosaprepitant in chemo-naïve breast cancer patients receiving anthracycline-containing chemotherapy.
Materials and methods
The subjects of the present study were chemo-naïve breast cancer patients who were administered anthracycline-containing chemotherapy, a combination of epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (EC), or EC with 5-fluorouracil (FEC) as the adjuvant or neoadjuvant, at the outpatient infusion center of St. Marianna University Hospital. This treatment was provided between the 3 months prior to (December 13th 2011-March 12th 2012) and the 3 months following (March 13th 2012 and June 12th 2012) switching from 3 day oral administration of aprepitant to intravenous infusion of fosaprepitant (dissolved in 100 ml physiological saline and injected over 30 min). FEC and EC were planned to be administered four times in total. The treatment schedule of EC comprised epirubicin [90 mg/m2; 10 min intravenous (IV) infusion] plus cyclophosphamide (600 mg/m2; 30 min IV infusion) on day 1 every 3 weeks, and that of FEC was epirubicin (100 mg/m2; 10 min IV infusion) and cyclophosphamide (500 mg/m2; 30 min IV infusion), followed by fluorouracil (500 mg/m2; 15 min IV infusion) on day 1 every 3 weeks. The dose of chemotherapy may be reduced and/or delayed at the physician's discretion considering the adverse events. Needle insertion was performed by specially trained nurses approved by the director of the hospital, or by skillful doctors. The anti-emetic treatment was based on granisetron hydrochloride (1 mg), ranitidine (50 mg), and dexamethasone (6.6 mg) on day 1 by IV infusion and oral dexamethasone (8 mg) on days 2 and 3. The subjects were divided into aprepitant (n=62) and fosaprepitant (n=38) groups. The patients whose anti-emetic treatment was switched from aprepitant to fosaprepitant and those who received chemotherapy via the central venous route were excluded from the present study. In the fosaprepitant group, the anti-emetic could be changed to aprepitant in the case of infusion site adverse events.
Evaluation of infusion site adverse events
As routine clinical practice at the outpatient infusion center of St. Marianna University Hospital, each patient reported the grade (0–4) of symptomatic adverse events by checking daily on the dedicated forms specific to each chemotherapy regimen, focusing on fatigue, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, dysgeusia, mucositis, fever, constipation, diarrhea, alopecia, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, nail loss, injection site reaction, gait disturbance, pain and anxiety. Patients receiving chemotherapy at the outpatient infusion center were monitored by the special nurses, paying particular attention to the infusion site adverse events, and all patients were evaluated according to the CTCAE ver. 4.0 (http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/docs/ctcae_4_with_lay_terms.pdf) and recorded on the electronic medical chart routinely.
In total, 102 breast cancer patients commenced the neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy during the above period, of whom two were excluded from the present study as a result of switching from fosaprepitant to aprepitant during the chemotherapy, in spite of the absence of infusion site adverse events. Finally, 62 were included in the aprepitant group and the remaining 38 were in the fosaprepitant group. Table I describes the background of the patients in each group. While no differences were observed in age and treatment lines, adjuvant or neoadjuvant, the proportion of the patients receiving EC regimens was slightly higher in the aprepitant group (45%) compared with the fosaprepitant group (29%; P=0.107).
All patients in each group completed the four planned cycles of chemotherapy. It was necessary to reduce of amount of chemotherapy administered to five patients (8%) in the aprepitant group: Two with febrile neutropenia (FN) and three with grade 2 nausea and vomiting. In the fosaprepitant group, it was necessary to reduce the amount of chemotherapy administered to seven patients (18%); three with FN, two with grade 2 fatigue, one with grade 3 neutropenia and one with grade 2 liver dysfunction.
A total of 26 patients (42%) in the aprepitant group and 36 patients (96%) in the fosaprepitant group experienced infusion site adverse events of any grade at least once (P<0.001). Observed infusion site adverse events were pain, swelling, erythema, induration, itching, scar, difficulty in flection, heat sensation and phlebitis (Table II). Grade 2 infusion site adverse events were observed more frequently in the fosaprepitant group (61%) compared with in the aprepitant group (7%; P<0.001). A total of 3/26 patients in the aprepitant group and 26/36 patients in the fosaprepitant group who experienced any infusion site adverse events required treatment for them. Table III shows the number of cycles when the first occurrence of infusion site adverse events of any grade were observed.
Table III.
Number of cycles when the first occurrence of any grade infusion site adverse events were observed.
In the fosaprepitant group, 45% of the patients experienced their first infusion site adverse event in the first cycle and >3/4 (78%) of those did so within the first two cycles. A total of 17/36 patients in the fosaprepitant group continued fosaprepitant even after experiencing infusion site adverse events, and similar adverse events were observed in 12 patients. Owing to the infusion site adverse events, fosaprepitant was discontinued in 19 patients in the fosaprepitant group, and aprepitant or palonosetron were subsequently used in 7 and 12 patients, respectively, with similar adverse events being observed in 5/19 patients. In 14 out of these 19 patients (74%), the infusion site adverse events improved or disappeared following the discontinuation of fosaprepitant. Furthermore, a central venous catheter was inserted into three patients and no further infusion site adverse events were observed in these patients.
No nausea was reported by 10% of the patients in the aprepitant group compared with 18% of the patients in the fosaprepitant group. No vomiting was reported by 85% of the patients in the aprepitant group compared with 76% of the patients in the fosaprepitant group. No significant differences were observed between the two groups.
Although the incidence of infusion site adverse events has been reported to be higher in fosaprepitant treatment compared with in aprepitant, particularly with chemotherapy using anthracyclines, the precise mechanism and the interaction between fosaprepitant and anthracyclines remain to be elucidated. In previous reports focusing on anthracycline-containing regimens, the incidences of infusion site adverse events range between 35 and 67% (7–9), while adverse events of any grade and grade 2 were as high as 95 and 61%, respectively, in the present study. The incidences of infusion site adverse events (42%) in the present study were higher compared with those reported previously by ~10%, even in the aprepitant group. In the present study, aprepitant was switched to fosaprepitant uniformly by changing the chemotherapy regimens registered in the computer ordering system, and the infusion site reactions were compared prior to and following switching. This means that there were very small patient selection biases in either arm, while other retrospective reports may exhibit certain selection biases. It was previously reported that prior chemotherapy may increase the risk of infusion site adverse events (10). However, since all the subjects in the present study were chemo-naïve, this may lead to a precise evaluation of infusion site adverse events without being affected by previous chemotherapy. However, special nurses dedicated to the outpatient infusion center checked the patient report forms of adverse events, and paid special attention to checking and recording infusion site adverse events. This evaluation system may overestimate the infusion site adverse events compared with previous reports, many of which were based on the physician's medical records comparing simultaneously between aprepitant and fosaprepitant. When continuing fosaprepitant after the first occurrence of infusion site adverse events, they reappeared in 74% of the patients, while most of the patients who discontinued fosaprepitant completed the planned chemotherapy without further infusion site adverse events. No differences were observed in other adverse events between the aprepitant group and the fosaprepitant group. Therefore, the present retrospective analysis provided evidence that fosaprepitant should be replaced by other anti-emetic agents, including aprepitant. Inserting a central venous catheter may be another option to prevent infusion site adverse events when using fosaprepitant.
In conclusion, as an anti-emetic treatment for chemotherapy using anthracyclines, fosaprepitant may be associated with a higher risk of infusion site adverse events compared with aprepitant.
