Mutation spectrum of TP53 gene predicts clinicopathological features and survival of gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT: TP53 gene is frequently mutated in gastric cancer (GC), but the relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis is conflicting. Here, we screened TP53 mutation spectrum of 214 GC patients in relation to their clinicopathological features and prognosis.TP53 nonsilent mutations were detected in 80 cases (37.4%), being frequently occurred as C:G to T:A single nucleotide transitions at 5'-CpG-3' sites. TP53 mutations occurred more frequently in differentiated histologic type than in undifferentiated type in the early stage (48.6% vs. 7%, P=0.0006), while the mutations correlated with venous invasion among advanced stage (47.7% vs. 20.7%, P=0.04). Subset of GC with TP53 hot spot mutations (R175, G245, R248, R273, R282) presented significantly worse overall survival and recurrence free survival compared to others (both P=0.001).Matched biopsies from GC and adjacent tissues from 214 patients were used for the experiment. All coding regions of TP53 gene (exon2 to exon11) were examined using Sanger sequencing.Our data suggest that GC with TP53 mutations seems to develop as differentiated histologic type and show aggressive biological behavior such as venous invasion. Moreover, our data emphasizes the importance of discriminating TP53 hot spot mutations (R175, G245, R248, R273, R282) to predict worse overall survival and recurrence free survival of GC patients.

Project description:ObjectivesGastric neuroendocrine carcinoma (GNEC) is a class of rare histological subtypes in gastric cancer (GC). This retrospective case-control study aimed to explore the clinicopathological features and overall survival (OS) of patients with GNEC.MethodsA large population of GNEC and intestinal-type GC (IGC) patients were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. The 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was initiated to adjust the confounders between GNEC and IGC cohorts. Kaplan-Meier (KM) plots with log-rank tests were used to compare the survival differences in GNEC versus IGC. Additionally, Cox proportional hazard regression models were adopted to characterize the prognostic factors relevant to OS of the GNEC patients.ResultsAn entity of 4596 patients were collected, including 3943 (85.8%) IGC patients and 653 (14.2%) GNEC patients. The PSM analysis well-balanced all confounders in GNEC versus IGC (all P > .05). The KM plots showed that GNEC had significantly superior OS to IGC both before and after PSM analysis. Before PSM, the median OS was 52 (33.6-70.4) months in GNEC versus 32 (29.3-34.7) months in IGC (P = .0015). After PSM, the median OS was 26 (18.3-33.7) months in GNEC versus 21 (17.7-24.3) months in IGC (P = .0039). Stratified analysis indicated that GNEC had superior survivals to IGC in early stage patients and those who received surgery. In Cox regression analysis, age ≥ 60, tumor size > 50 mm, stage II-IV, T2, and N3 were independent risk factors for the GNEC patients (hazard ratio [HR]>1, P < .05). By contrast, year 2010 to 2015, female, and surgery were independent protective factors for these patients (HR < 1, P < .05).ConclusionsGNEC has unique clinicopathological features quite different from IGC and may have a superior survival to IGC in early stage patients. The prognostic factors identified here may assist the clinicians to more individually treat these patients.

Project description:To investigate clinicopathological features of early stage gastric cancer with enteroblastic differentiation (GCED).We retrospectively investigated data on 6 cases of early stage GCED and 186 cases of early stage conventional gastric cancer (CGC: well or moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma) who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection or endoscopic mucosal resection from September 2011 to February 2015 in our hospital. GCED was defined as a tumor having a primitive intestine-like structure composed of cuboidal or columnar cells with clear cytoplasm and immunohistochemical positivity for either alpha-fetoprotein, Glypican 3 or SALL4. The following were compared between GCED and CGC: age, gender, location and size of tumor, macroscopic type, ulceration, depth of invasion, lymphatic and venous invasion, positive horizontal and vertical margin, curative resection rate.Six cases (5 males, 1 female; mean age 75.7 years; 6 lesions) of early gastric cancer with a GCED component and 186 cases (139 males, 47 females; mean age 72.7 years; 209 lesions) of early stage CGC were investigated. Mean tumor diameters were similar but rates of submucosal invasion, lymphatic invasion, venous invasion, and non-curative resection were higher in GCED than CGC (66.6% vs 11.4%, 33.3% vs 2.3%, 66.6% vs 0.4%, 83.3% vs 11% respectively, P < 0.01). Deep submucosal invasion was not revealed endoscopically or by preoperative biopsy. Histologically, in GCED the superficial mucosal layer was covered with a CGC component. The GCED component tended to exist in the deeper part of the mucosa to the submucosa by lymphatic and/or venous invasion, without severe stromal reaction. In addition, Glypican 3 was the most sensitive marker for GCED (positivity, 83.3%), immunohistochemically.Even in the early stage GCED has high malignant potential, and preoperative diagnosis is considered difficult. Endoscopists and pathologists should know the clinicopathological features of this highly malignant type of cancer.

Project description:BackgroundThe rapid aging of the population in Japan has been accompanied by an increased rate of surgery for lung cancer among elderly patients. It is thus an urgent priority to map out a treatment strategy for elderly patients with primary lung cancer. Although surgical resection remains standard treatment for early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), it is now essential to confirm the status of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations when planning treatment strategies. Furthermore, several studies have reported that EGFR mutations are an independent prognostic marker in NSCLC. However, the relations between age group and the molecular and pathological characteristics of NSCLC remain unclear. We studied the status of EGFR mutations in elderly patients with NSCLC and examined the relations of EGFR mutations to clinicopathological factors and outcomes according to age group.MethodsA total of 388 consecutive patients with NSCLC who underwent complete tumor resection in our hospital from 2006 through 2008 were studied retrospectively. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections were used to isolate DNA from carcinoma lesions. Mutational analyses of EGFR gene exons 19, 20, and 21 and KRAS gene exons 12 and 13 were performed by loop-hybrid mobility shift assay, a highly sensitive polymerase chain reaction-based method.ResultsEGFR mutations were detected in 185 (47.7%) and KRAS mutations were detected in 33 (8.5%) of the 388 patients. EGFR mutations were found in a significantly higher proportion of patients younger than 80 years (younger group; 178/359, 49.6%) than in patients 80 years or older (older group; 7/29, 24.1%) (P = 0.008). In contrast, KRAS mutations were more common in the older group (6/29, 20.7%) than in the younger group (27/359, 7.5%) (P = 0.014). The older group showed a trend toward a higher rate of 5-year overall survival among elderly patients with EGFR mutations (100%) than among those with wild-type EGFR (66.2%), but the difference was not significant.ConclusionsOur results suggest that the EGFR status of patients with NSCLC differs between patients 80 years or older and those younger than 80 years. EGFR mutation status might be a prognostic marker in elderly patients with completely resected NSCLC.
