Relation between mismatch repair status, chemoresponse, survival and anatomic location in gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It has recently been reported that mismatch repair (MMR) status and microsatellite instability (MSI) status in gastroesophageal carcinomas predict surgical, chemotherapeutic and immunotherapeutic outcomes; however, there is extensive variability in the reported incidence and clinical implications of MMR/MSI status in gastroesophaegal adenocarcinomas. We characterized a Canadian surgical patient cohort with respect to MMR status, clinicopathologic correlates and anatomic tumour location.

Methods

We investigated MMR and BRAF V600E status of gastroesophaegal adenocarcinomas in patients who underwent gastrectomy or esophagectomy with extended (D2) lymphadenectomy at a single centre between 2011 and 2019. We correlated patterns of MMR expression in the overall cohort and in anatomic location-defined subgroups with treatment response and overall survival using multivariate analysis.

Results

In all, 226 cases of gastroesophaegal adenocarcinoma (63 esophageal, 98 gastroesophageal junctional and 65 gastric) were included. The MMR-deficient (dMMR) immunophenotype was found in 28 tumours (12.3%) (15 junctional [15.3%], 13 gastric [20.0%] and none of the esophageal). The majority (25 [89%]) of dMMR cases showed MLH1/PMS2 loss without concurrent BRAF V600E mutation. Two MSH2/ MSH6-deficient gastric tumours and 1 MSH6-deficient junctional tumour were detected. The pathologic response to preoperative chemotherapy was comparable in the dMMR and MMR-proficient (pMMR) cohorts. However, dMMR status was associated with significantly longer median overall survival than pMMR status (5.8 yr v. 2.4 yr, hazard ratio [HR] 1.91, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-3.46), particularly in junctional tumours (4.6 yr v. 1.9 yr, HR 2.97, 95% CI 1.27-6.94).

Conclusion

Our study shows that MMR status has at least prognostic value, which supports the need for biomarker testing in gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas, including junctional adenocarcinomas. This highlights the clinical significance of determining the MMR status in all adenocarcinomas of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Response to induction chemotherapy, however, was not influenced by MMR status.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) may differ depending on the location of the tumor and the age of onset of the disease. Previous studies also suggested that the molecular basis of CRC varies with tumor location, which could affect the clinical management of patients. Therefore, we performed survival analysis looking at different age groups and mismatch repair status (MMR) of CRC patients according to primary tumor location in an attempt to identify subgroups of CRC that might help in the prognosis of disease. METHODS:A group of 2233 patients operated on to remove their CRC tumors were analyzed (521 with right colon cancer, 740 with left colon cancer and 972 with rectal cancer). The expression of four MMR genes was assessed by immunohistochemistry (IHC), independent of clinical criteria. From the data collected, a predictive model for overall survival (OS) could be constructed for some associations of tumor location and age of onset using Kaplan-Meier, logistic and Cox regression analysis. RESULTS:When tumor location was considered as the lone factor, we found no statistical difference in overall survival (OS) between right cancer (68%), left cancer (67%) or rectal cancer tumor locations (71%) (HR: 1.17, 95%CI (confidence interval): 0.97-1.43, P = 0.057). When age of onset was considered, middle age (40-59 years) and older (60-85 years) patients were found to have higher OS than younger onset cancer (20-39 years) patients (69% vs 71% vs 59%, HR: 1.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.91-1.25, P = 0.008). When both age of onset and tumor location were considered in combination as disease factors, we found that the subgroup of patients with left colon cancer from middle age (69%) and older (67%) aged patients had higher OS than younger (54%) patients (HR: 0.89, 95%CI: 0.68-1.16, P = 0.048). However in patients with right colon cancers, we found no statistical difference is OS between younger, middle age or older grouped patients (60% vs 71% vs 67%, HR: 0.84, 95% CI: 0.61-1.16, P = 0.194). With regard to rectal located cancers, we found that younger (62%) and middle age (68) patients had lower OS than older (77%) patients (HR:1.46, 95%CI: 1.13-1.88, P = 0.004). The rates of deficient MMR (dMMR) was 10.4%. We found no statistical difference in OS stratified by tumor locations. However, right colon cancer patients with dMMR (86%) had higher OS than those with proficient MMR (pMMR) (63%) (HR: 3.01, 95% CI: 1.82-4.97, P<0.001). Left colon cancer patients with dMMR (76%) also had higher OS than those with pMMR (66%) (HR: 1.67, 95% CI: 0.95-2.92, P = 0.01). Oppositely, rectal cancer patients with dMMR (60%) had lower OS than those pMMR (68%) (HR: 0.77, 95% CI: 0.51-1.17, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS:These data demonstrate that primary tumor location can be an important factor when considered along with age of onset for the prognosis of CRC. Primary tumor location is also an important factor to evaluate the predictive effect of MMR status for the prognosis of CRC.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Periampullary adenocarcinomas, including pancreatic cancer, are a heterogeneous group of tumors with poor prognosis, where classification into intestinal type (I-type) or pancreatobiliary type (PB-type) is a relevant prognostic factor. The clinical significance of deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) in periampullary adenocarcinoma is comparatively unexplored. Herein, we examined the associations of MMR immunophenotype with long-term survival in patients with resected periampullary adenocarcinoma, with particular reference to morphology and adjuvant treatment response. METHODS:MMR protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays with primary tumors from a retrospective cohort of 175 patients with periampullary adenocarcinoma treated with pancreaticoduodenectomy during 2001-2011 in Malmö and Lund University Hospitals, Sweden. Cox proportional hazards models were applied to calculate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS:After a mean follow-up of 46.5 (1.9-185.1) months, 35 patients (20.3%) were alive, 24 with I-type and 11 with PB-type tumors. MMR protein expression could be evaluated in 172 cases, in which dMMR was denoted in 20 (11.6%) cases, 13/63 (20.6%) in I-type and 7/109 (6.4%) in PB-type tumors. dMMR was associated with a significantly prolonged overall survival in the entire cohort (HR = 0.28, 95% CI 0.13-0.57), and in I-type tumors (HR = 0.20, 95% CI 0.06-0.68), however not independent of conventional prognostic factors. In PB-type tumors, dMMR was not prognostic, but there was a significant negative interaction between dMMR and adjuvant treatment (pinteraction = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS:dMMR is more frequent in I-type compared to PB-type periampullary adenocarcinoma, and is a prognostic factor for long-term survival only in the former. The finding of the small number of PB-type tumors with dMMR potentially lacking benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy is however noteworthy and merits further validation.
