Clinical characteristics and course of sporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenomas: A multicenter retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

Sporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenoma (SNADA) is a rare disease, and therefore, its clinical characteristics have not been comprehensively investigated. Furthermore, owing to the high complication rates and severity of endoscopic resection, treatment strategies vary among facilities. In the present study, we aimed to clarify the clinical characteristics and course of SNADA.We extracted clinical and histological records of SNADA cases diagnosed in 11 hospitals between September 1999 and August 2014. The patients were divided into "no-resection" and "resection" groups based on the initial treatment approach. We investigated the long-term outcome of the "no-resection" group and treatment results of the "resection" group, with particular interest in endoscopic resection.Overall, 299 patients were diagnosed with SNADA. The median age at diagnosis was 67 years (range, 31-88 years), with approximately twice as many men as women. The median tumor size was 8.0 mm (2-60 mm). In total, 161 patients were initially selected for no-resection and 138 underwent resection. Age >70 years and the presence of either severe illness or poor performance status were significantly related to opting for no-resection. In the no-resection group, 101 patients underwent endoscopic follow-up for at least 1 year. During the observational period (2.5 ± 2.2 years), 27 lesions (27%) disappeared following cold forceps biopsy, and 13 lesions (14%) presented lateral growth. Four lesions (4%) changed to mucosal carcinoma, 3 were treated endoscopically, and 1 was surgically resected. Nineteen patients died; however, no one died of duodenal carcinoma. In the endoscopic resection group, en bloc resection was achieved in 78% of patients. However, the complication rate for perforation was 7%, and endoscopic submucosal dissection was associated with a 36% perforation rate.With the low incidence of cancer development and no disease specific death, the strategy of initially not performing resection could be considered especially for the older adults, poor-prognosis patients, or small lesions.

Project description:The molecular and clinical characteristics of non-ampullary duodenal adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas are not fully understood because they are rare. To clarify these characteristics, we performed genetic and epigenetic analysis of cancer-related genes in these lesions. One hundred and seven non-ampullary duodenal adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas, including 100 small intestinal-type tumors (90 adenomas and 10 intramucosal adenocarcinomas) and 7 gastric-type tumors (2 pyloric gland adenomas and 5 intramucosal adenocarcinomas), were investigated. Using bisulfite pyrosequencing, we assessed the methylation status of CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) markers and MLH1. Then using next-generation sequencing, we performed targeted exome sequence analysis within 75 cancer-related genes in 102 lesions. There were significant differences in the clinicopathological and molecular variables between small intestinal- and gastric-type tumors, which suggests the presence of at least two separate carcinogenic pathways in non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinomas. The prevalence of CIMP-positive lesions was higher in intramucosal adenocarcinomas than in adenomas. Thus, concurrent hypermethylation of multiple CpG islands is likely associated with development of non-ampullary duodenal intramucosal adenocarcinomas. Mutation analysis showed that APC was the most frequently mutated gene in these lesions (56/102; 55%), followed by KRAS (13/102; 13%), LRP1B (10/102; 10%), GNAS (8/102; 8%), ERBB3 (7/102; 7%), and RNF43 (6/102; 6%). Additionally, the high prevalence of diffuse or focal nuclear β-catenin accumulation (87/102; 85%) as well as mutations of WNT pathway components (60/102; 59%) indicates the importance of WNT signaling to the initiation of duodenal adenomas. The higher than previously reported frequency of APC gene mutations in small bowel adenocarcinomas as well as the difference in the APC mutation distributions between small intestinal-type adenomas and intramucosal adenocarcinomas may indicate that the adenoma-carcinoma sequence has only limited involvement in duodenal carcinogenesis. © 2020 The Authors.

Project description:BackgroundTo evaluate the clinical risk factors that influence the overall survival in patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma (DA) after tumor resection.MethodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 188 patients who underwent tumor resection for DA between January 2005 and June 2020 at Xiangyang Central Hospital.ResultsThe median survival of the patients who underwent resectional operation was 54 months, longer than of those who underwent palliative surgery (20.8 months) (2,916.17; 95% CI, 916.3-9,280.5; p < 0.001). Survival of non-ampullary duodenal carcinoma patients (50.3 months; 95% CI, 39.7-61.8) was similar to that of ampullary duodenal carcinoma patients (59.3 months; 95% CI, 38.6-66.7) but was significantly better than that of papillary adenocarcinoma patients (38.9 months; 95% CI, 29.8-54.8; p = 0.386). Those with intestinal-type ductal adenocarcinomas had a longer median overall survival than those with the gastric type (61.8 vs. 46.7 months; p < 0.01) or pancreatic type (32.2 months; p < 0.001). Clinical DA samples had significantly diverse expressions of ATG12, IRS2, and IGF2. Higher expressions of the ATG12 and IRS2 proteins were significantly correlated with worse survival. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis (hazard ratio (HR), 6.44; 95% CI, 3.68-11.27; p < 0.0001), margin status (HR, 4.94; 95% CI, 2.85-8.54; p < 0.0001), and high expression of ATG12 (HR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.17-3.06; p = 0.0099) were independent prognostic factors negatively associated with survival in patients undergoing curative resection. There was no survival difference between the groups with ampullary, non-ampullary, and papillary adenocarcinomas treated with adjuvant chemotherapy (p = 0.973).ConclusionGastric/pancreatic type, high expression of ATG12, lymph node metastases, and margin status were negative prognosticators of survival in patients with DAs than in those with tumor anatomical location. Curative resection is the best treatment option for appropriate patients.
