Proteins in stool as biomarkers for non-invasive detection of colorectal adenomas with high risk of progression.

ABSTRACT: Screening to detect colorectal cancer (CRC) in an early or premalignant state is an effective method to reduce CRC mortality rates. Current stool-based screening tests, e.g. fecal immunochemical test (FIT), have a suboptimal sensitivity for colorectal adenomas and difficulty distinguishing adenomas at high risk of progressing to cancer from those at lower risk. We aimed to identify stool protein biomarker panels that can be used for the early detection of high-risk adenomas and CRC. Proteomics data (LC-MS/MS) were collected on stool samples from adenoma (n?=?71) and CRC patients (n?=?81) as well as controls (n?=?129). Colorectal adenoma tissue samples were characterized by low-coverage whole-genome sequencing to determine their risk of progression based on specific DNA copy number changes. Proteomics data were used for logistic regression modeling to establish protein biomarker panels. In total, 15 of the adenomas (15.8%) were defined as high risk of progressing to cancer. A protein panel, consisting of haptoglobin (Hp), LAMP1, SYNE2, and ANXA6, was identified for the detection of high-risk adenomas (sensitivity of 53% at specificity of 95%). Two panels, one consisting of Hp and LRG1 and one of Hp, LRG1, RBP4, and FN1, were identified for high-risk adenomas and CRCs detection (sensitivity of 66% and 62%, respectively, at specificity of 95%). Validation of Hp as a biomarker for high-risk adenomas and CRCs was performed using an antibody-based assay in FIT samples from a subset of individuals from the discovery series (n?=?158) and an independent validation series (n?=?795). Hp protein was significantly more abundant in high-risk adenoma FIT samples compared to controls in the discovery (p?=?0.036) and the validation series (p?=?9e-5). We conclude that Hp, LAMP1, SYNE2, LRG1, RBP4, FN1, and ANXA6 may be of value as stool biomarkers for early detection of high-risk adenomas and CRCs. © 2019 Authors.

Project description:BackgroundFecal immunochemical test (FIT), DNA mutation, DNA methylation, and microbial dysbiosis all showed promising in colorectal cancer (CRC) non-invasive detection. We assessed CRC detection with an assay combining all these strategies and investigated the effect of clinical features on the performance of this comprehensive test.MethodsWe performed a multidimensional analysis study using stool samples collected from 108 patients with CRC, 18 patients with colorectal adenoma, and 36 individuals with no evidence of colorectal disease. The multidimensional analysis of stool samples including FIT, stool DNA (sDNA) tests for three methylated genes (Septin9, NDRG4, BMP3) and three mutated genes (KRAS, BRAF, PI3KCA) using next generation sequencing as well as detection of stool bacteria level of Fusobacterium nucleatum and Parvimonas micra using qPCR method. We used a linear support vector classification model to analyze the data.ResultsThe sensitivity of FIT alone was 69.4% for CRC and 11.1% for adenoma. Separately, the sensitivity of the detection of intestinal bacteria, DNA mutation, and DNA methylation for CRC was 58.3, 50.0, and 51.9%, respectively. The combination of FIT and sDNA tests had a sensitivity of 81.5% for CRC (AUC: 0.93, better than FIT alone, P = 0.017) and 27.8% for adenoma with 94.4% specificity. Sensitivity of the multidimensional test to detect CRC with stage II (84.6%) and III (91.9%) CRC was relatively higher (88.2%) than that of patients with stage I (60.0%) and stage IV (75.0%) (P = 0.024). The rate of CRC detection increased with tumor size (P = 0.008) and age (P = 0.04). Interestingly, the rate of CRC detection was higher in smoking persons than non-smokers with marginal significance (P = 0.08).ConclusionsThe multidimensional assay of stool samples combining FIT and stool DNA tests further improved the diagnostic sensitivity for CRC. This could provide new approach for improvement of CRC screening and further demonstrations are warranted.
