Clinical-Molecular characteristics and Post-Translational modifications of colorectal cancer in north China: Implications for future targeted therapies. Gene 2024; 899:148134. [PMID: 38185290 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2024.148134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/09/2024]
Abstract
This study delineated the elucidate molecular changes and their post-translational modifications (PTMs) in heterogenetic colorectal cancer (CRC) for a deeper understanding of the CRC pathophysiology and identifying potential therapeutic targets. In this retrospective study, the profiles of 13 hot spot gene mutations were analyzed and the microsatellite instability (MSI) status was determined.Employing the Circulating Single-Molecule Amplification and Resequencing Technology (cSMART) assay, the clinical-pathological features of CRC were characterized in 249 Chinese patients. PTMs were quantified online.Among the patients with CRC, the mutation frequencies of KRAS, NRAS, BRAF, PIK3CA, TP53, and APC genes were 47.8%, 3.6%, 4.8%, 13.7%, 55.8%, and 36.9%, respectively. The proportion of MSI-high (MSI-H) was 7.8%.Subsequent multiple logistic regression analysis showed significant associations including a link between lung metastasis and KRAS mutation, between liver metastasis and lymph node metastasis, between MSI-H and early-onset CRC (EOCRC) and KRAS mutation, between right-sided colon cancer and peritoneal metastasis, and between PIK3CA mutation and PTEN mutation. Patients with KRAS mutation presented with MSI-H, lung metastasis, and PIK3CA mutation. MSI-H, BRAF mutation, and PTEN mutation were more frequent in EOCRC. Phosphorylation and ubiquitylation were found in KRAS, BRAF, PTEN, and SMAD4; SUMOylation and ubiquitylation were observed in HRAS and NRAS; while phosphorylation was obvious in APC, P53, and MLH1. Notably, Phosphorylation and ubiquitylation were the two most common PTMs. The biological characteristics of CRC in Chinese patients have some unique clinical features, which can be explained by the genetic mutation profile, correlations among gene mutations and clinical characteristics. These distinctions set the Chinese patient population apart from their Western counterparts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is one of the most adverse prognostic factors in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC) cases. As next-generation sequencing technology has become more widely available, the genomic profile of biliary tract carcinoma has been clarified. However, whether LNMs have additional genomic alterations in patients with EHCC has not been investigated. Here, we aimed to compare the genomic alterations between primary tumors and matched LNMs in patients with EHCC. METHODS Sixteen patients with node-positive EHCCs were included. Genomic DNA was extracted from tissue samples of primary tumors and matched LNMs. Targeted amplicon sequencing of 160 cancer-related genes was performed. RESULTS Among the 32 tumor samples from 16 patients, 91 genomic mutations were identified. Genomic mutations were noted in 31 genes, including TP53, MAP3K1, SMAD4, APC, and ARID1A. TP53 mutations were most frequently observed (12/32; 37.5%). Genomic mutation profiles were highly concordant between primary tumors and matched LNMs (13/16; 81.3%), and an additional genomic mutation of CDK12 was observed in only one patient. CONCLUSION Genomic mutations were highly concordant between primary tumors and matched LNMs, suggesting that genotyping of archived primary tumor samples may help predict genomic mutations of metastatic tumors in patients with EHCC.

Genetic Characteristics of Resectable Colorectal Cancer with Pulmonary Metastasis. Can J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2022; 2022:2033876. [PMID: 35531124 PMCID: PMC9072045 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2033876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
The lung is the most common extra-abdominal metastasis site of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aimed to investigate the genetic variation of pulmonary metastases (PM) and primary tumors in resectable CRC. The clinical data of 410 patients with PM after CRC surgery and 33 paraffin-embedded tissue samples from January 2012 to July 2019 in our hospital were collected retrospectively. Next, 450-panel gene detection technologies based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) were used to analyze the changes in the gene map and the overall variation in cancer-related genes in PM and primary tumors. After quality control, 19 samples were included in the final gene analysis. The results showed that APC (89.5%), TP53 (89.5%), and KRAS (53%) were the most common mutations in PM and primary tumors, but the gene amplification variation was enriched in primary tumors (4.6% vs. 11.4%). KRAS G12D was the most common site variation of the KRAS gene in both PM and primary tumors of CRC. There was no hotspot mutation in the TP53 locus in CRC, and the TP53 mutation in the PM was consistent with that in the primary lesion. The microsatellite instability (MSI) levels of 10 patients were MSS. The mean tumor mutation burden (TMB) of the primary tumor (5.3 muts·Mb-1) was slightly higher than that of metastasis (5.0 muts·Mb-1). In our institution, the genetic characteristics of resectable PM from CRC may be highly consistent with those of the primary tumor.

Abstract
Repeat surgical resection (redo) for pulmonary metastases is a questionable, albeit intriguing topic. We performed an extensive review of the literature, to specifically analyze results of redo pulmonary metastasectomies. We reviewed a total of 3,523 papers. Among these, 2,019 were excluded for redundancy and 1,105 because they were not completely retrievable. Out of 399 eligible papers, 183 had missing information or missing abstract, while 96 lacked data on survival. A total of 120 papers dated from 1991 onwards were finally included. Data regarding mortality, major morbidity, prognostic factors and long-term survivals of the first redo pulmonary metastasectomies were retrieved and analyzed. Homogeneity of data was affected by the lack of guidelines for redo pulmonary metastasectomy and the risks of bias when comparing different studies has to be considered. According to the histology sub-types, redo metastasectomies papers were grouped as: colorectal (n=42), sarcomas (n=36), others (n=20) and all histologies (n=22); the total number of patients was 3,015. Data about chemotherapy were reported in half of the papers, whereas targeted or immunotherapy in 9. None of these associated therapies, except chemotherapy in two records, did significantly modify outcomes. Disease-free interval before the redo procedure was the prevailing prognostic factor and nearly all papers showed a significant correlation between patients’ comorbidities and prognosis. No perioperative mortality was reported, while perioperative major morbidity was overall quite low. Where available, overall survival after the first redo metastasectomy ranged from 10 to 72 months, with a 5-years survival of approximately 50%. The site of first recurrence after the redo procedure was mainly lung. Despite the data retrievable from literature are heterogeneous and confounding, we can state that redo lung metastasectomy is worthwhile when the lesions are resectable and the perioperative risk is low. At present, there are no “non-surgical” therapeutic options to replace redo pulmonary metastasectomies.

Abstract
There is a critical need for development of improved methods capable of accurately predicting the RAS (KRAS and NRAS) and BRAF gene mutation status in patients with advanced colorectal cancer (CRC). The purpose of this study was to investigate whether radiomics and/or semantic features could improve the detection accuracy of RAS/BRAF gene mutation status in patients with colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM). In this retrospective study, 159 patients who had been diagnosed with CRLM in two hospitals were enrolled. All patients received lung and abdominal contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) scans prior to radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Semantic features were independently assessed by two radiologists. Radiomics features were extracted from the portal venous phase (PVP) of the CT scan for each patient. Seven machine learning algorithms were used to establish three scores based on the semantic, radiomics and the combination of both features. Two semantic and 851 radiomics features were used to predict the mutation status of RAS and BRAF using an artificial neural network method (ANN). This approach performed best out of the seven tested algorithms. We constructed three scores which were based on radiomics, semantic features and the combined scores. The combined score could distinguish between wild-type and mutant patients with an AUC of 0.95 in the primary cohort and 0.79 in the validation cohort. This study proved that the application of radiomics together with semantic features can improve non-invasive assessment of the gene mutation status of RAS (KRAS and NRAS) and BRAF in CRLM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study was undertaken to review a single-institution cohort of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer undergoing lung resection after a multidisciplinary evaluation and to investigate the main prognostic factors for survival. METHODS Medical records of 129 patients undergoing lung metastasectomy for colorectal cancer with curative intent from 2001 to 2017 were reviewed. Tissue samples from the primary tumor were analyzed with a multiplex genotyping system for the detection of mutations in RAS and BRAF genes. Survival analyses were carried out by the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate and multivariable analyses were performed using the log-rank test and the Cox regression model. RESULTS Postoperative morbidity and mortality were 13.2% and 0%, respectively. At a median follow-up time of 62.5 months, median overall survival was 90.5 months and median relapse-free survival was 42.8 months. Multivariable analysis for overall survival identified synchronous versus metachronous metastatic presentation as the only prognostic factor, whereas relapse-free survival was independently associated with synchronous versus metachronous metastatic presentation, number of metastases, and postoperative chemotherapy. CONCLUSIONS This study shows particularly favorable survival outcomes for patients undergoing lung metastasectomy. The validity of some of the main prognostic factors was confirmed and a positive effect of postoperative chemotherapy on relapse-free survival was shown. Contrary to other reports, the presence of KRAS mutations was not associated with significant survival differences. Further studies are needed in order to clarify the interactions between molecular, clinical, and pathologic characteristics and treatment-related factors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Response to preoperative chemo-radiotherapy (CRT) varies. We assessed whether circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) might be an early indicator of tumor response or progression to guide therapy adaptation in rectal cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A total of 243 serial plasma samples were analyzed from 47 patients with localized rectal cancer undergoing CRT. Up to three somatic variants were tracked in plasma using droplet digital PCR. RECIST and MRI tumor regression grade (mrTRG) evaluated response. Survival analyses applied Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression. RESULTS ctDNA detection rates were: 74% (n = 35/47) pretreatment, 21% (n = 10/47) mid CRT, 21% (n = 10/47) after completing CRT, and 13% (n = 3/23) after surgery. ctDNA status after CRT was associated with primary tumor response by mrTRG (P = 0.03). With a median follow-up of 26.4 months, metastases-free survival was shorter in patients with detectable ctDNA after completing CRT [HR 7.1; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.4-21.5; P < 0.001], persistently detectable ctDNA pre and mid CRT (HR 3.8; 95% CI, 1.2-11.7; P = 0.02), and pre, mid, and after CRT (HR 11.5; 95% CI, 3.3-40.4; P < 0.001) compared with patients with undetectable or nonpersistent ctDNA. In patients with detectable ctDNA, a fractional abundance threshold of ≥0.07% mid CRT or ≥0.13% after completing CRT predicted for metastases with 100% sensitivity and 83.3% specificity for mid CRT and 66.7% for CRT completion. All 3 patients with detectable ctDNA post-surgery relapsed compared with none of the 20 patients with undetectable ctDNA (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS ctDNA identified patients at risk of developing metastases during the neoadjuvant period and post-surgery, and could be used to tailor treatment.

Abstract
The value of pulmonary metastasis (PM) resection in the context of controlled primary tumor sites was shown to improve survival of patients if complete resection could be achieved. The surgeon's approach can be modulated by various parameters pertaining to safety margins including local growth properties, size, spread and location of PMs. Lymph node dissection and assessment is recommended although its impact on survival remains unclear. Thoracoscopic surgery combined to thin slice chest CT scans has shown results comparable to thoracotomy in patients with few PMs. The management of PMs should therefore be discussed on an individual, interdisciplinary basis to offer the best possible oncological and surgical results as well as to maximize long term patient survival rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES While knowledge has grown extensively regarding the impact of mutations on colorectal cancer prognosis, their role in outcomes after pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) remains minimally understood. We sought to determine the prognostic role of mutant disease on survival and recurrence after metastasectomy. METHODS Patients with available tumor sequencing profiles who underwent PM for colorectal cancer at a single institution from 2011 to 2017 were reviewed. Various demographic and clinicopathologic factors, as well as mutational status, were tested in the Cox regression analyses to identify predictors of survival and disease-free survival (DFS). RESULTS A total of 130 patients met inclusion criteria, among whom 78 (60%) were male and the mean age was 57 years. The median survival time and 5-year survival rate were 58.2 months and 47%, respectively. A single pulmonary nodule was present in 54%. Disease recurrence occurred for 87 (67%) patients, including 75 (58%) who had at least one lung recurrence after metastasectomy at a median time to recurrence of 19.4 months. Upon multivariable analysis, RAS and TP53 mutations were associated with shorter survival DFS, while APC is associated with prolonged survival. CONCLUSIONS After metastasectomy for colorectal cancer, mutations in RAS, TP53, and APC play an important role in survival and recurrence.

Abstract
Introduction: Lung metastases occur in 10-20% of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). Most of them are treated with palliative intent and have a poor prognosis. Pulmonary metastasectomy may be a curative option for carefully selected patients with 5-year survival rates ranging from 25% to 60%. However, up to 70% of patients develop recurrence after pulmonary metastasectomy. Therefore, the identification of prognostic factors is essential in CRC patients with resectable lung metastases. Areas covered: This review aims at summarizing the actual body of knowledge available on lung metastases from CRC focusing on their clinical, pathological and molecular profile. Moreover, we provide an update on experts' attitudes towards lung metastasectomy, adjuvant or perioperative chemotherapy. Expert opinion: Traditional clinical prognosticators such as the total number of pulmonary metastases, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) serum levels before surgery, and presence of lymph node metastases cannot provide reliable criteria to predict survival after lung metastasectomy. Indeed, research efforts have been directed in recent years toward studying the biological characteristics of lung lesions to better define prognosis and response to treatment, and ultimately shed new light on their proper local and systemic management.

[PMID: 30733075 PMCID: PMC6413540 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.01.050] [Citation(s) in RCA: 65] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2018] [Revised: 01/13/2019] [Accepted: 01/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The use of biomarkers to target anti-EGFR treatments for metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is well-established, requiring molecular analysis of primary or metastatic biopsies. We aim to review concordance between primary CRC and its metastatic sites. Methods A systematic review and meta-analysis of all published studies (1991–2018) reporting on biomarker concordance between primary CRC and its metastatic site(s) was undertaken according to PRISMA guidelines using several medical databases. Studies without matched samples or using peripheral blood for biomarker analysis were excluded. Findings 61 studies including 3565 patient samples were included. Median biomarker concordance for KRAS (n = 50) was 93.7% [[67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [74], [75], [76], [77], [78], [79], [80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], NRAS (n = 11) was 100% [[90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], BRAF (n = 22) was 99.4% [[80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]], and PIK3CA (n = 17) was 93% [[42], [43], [44], [45], [46], [47], [48], [49], [50], [51], [52], [53], [54], [55], [56], [57], [58], [59], [60], [61], [62], [63], [64], [65], [66], [67], [68], [69], [70], [71], [72], [73], [74], [75], [76], [77], [78], [79], [80], [81], [82], [83], [84], [85], [86], [87], [88], [89], [90], [91], [92], [93], [94], [95], [96], [97], [98], [99], [100]]. Meta-analytic pooled discordance was 8% for KRAS (95% CI = 5–10%), 8% for BRAF (95% CI = 5–10%), 7% for PIK3CA (95% CI = 2–13%), and 28% overall (95% CI = 14–44%). The liver was the most commonly biopsied metastatic site (n = 2276), followed by lung (n = 438), lymph nodes (n = 1123), and peritoneum (n = 132). Median absolute concordance in multiple biomarkers was 81% (5–95%). Interpretation Metastatic CRC demonstrates high concordance across multiple biomarkers, suggesting that molecular testing of either the primary or liver and lung metastasis is adequate. More research on colorectal peritoneal metastases is required.
