P1.15-008 - Clinical Features and Gene Mutation Profiling of Pulmonary Carcinoid Tumors (ID 7440)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): S. Wei
- Abstract
Background:
Carcinoid tumors of the lung are an uncommon group of pulmonary neoplasms. Carcinoid tumors represent the most indolent form of a spectrum of bronchopulmonary neuroendocrine tumors, however little is known about its molecular features. We analyzed pulmonary carcinoid tumors to identify biologically relevant genomic alterations.
Method:
We reviewed all the patient data from 2006 to 2016 in our hospital and collected 20 cases of lung carcinoid tumors. We summarized their clinical features and imaging data. Among 20 cases of lung carcinoid tumors, quality control was passed for 6 patients. We performed targeted capture sequencing of 56 cancer-related genes. Moreover, we made a literature review of pulmonary carcinoid tumors and summarized the clinical features and gene mutations.
Result:
Among the 20 pulmonary carcinoid tumors cases, which include 9 typical carcinoid and 11 atypical carcinoid tumors, there was a male predominance of this disease (Male vs Female: 15 vs 5). The range of age is 14 to 71 with the median age of 48. For gene mutation profiling on 6 pulmonary carcinoid tumors, we detected 27 mutations in 21 genes, including 22 missense mutations, 2 deletion mutations, 1 frameshift mutation and two others. Among the 21 genes, there are 11 proto-oncogenes and 6 tumor suppressor genes, which were reported to participate in the tumorigenesis, growth, invasion and metastasis of tumor.
Conclusion:
Through the next generation sequencing, we detected 27 mutations in 21 gene on the 6 pulmonary carcinoid tumors. Among these genes, the mutation of gene IGF1R, ERBB4, KIT and TSC2 showed the most frequent. We supposed that these genes might be involved in the tumorigenesis of pulmonary carcinoid tumors and the potential targets of therapy. Further functional studies of these genes are worthy of being explored.

P3.02-097 - Clinicopathological Features and Genetic Landscape of Pulmonary Large Cell Carcinoma under 2015 WHO Classification of NSCLC (ID 7461)
09:30 - 09:30 | Author(s): S. Wei
- Abstract
Background:
Pulmonary large cell carcinoma (LCC) was re-defined by 2015 WHO classification of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by excluding the tumors with adenocarcinoma, squamous and neuroendocrine features. The clinicopathological features and genetic landscape of pulmonary large cell carcinoma (LCC) with new classification were barely investigated.
Method:
Twenty-four LCC patients previously diagnosed under WHO 2004 criteria at Tianjin Medical University General Hospital were collected and re-classfied by 2015 WHO classification criteria. The specimen with more than 1% positivity of TTF-1/napsin A and 10% positivity of p40/p63/ CK5/6 expression was excluded from LCCs under WHO 2015 criteria in this study. The specimens with CgA and Syn positivity, the feature of neuroendocrine tumor, were excluded too. The genetic analysis was performed by the next-generation sequencing (NGS) of 46 cancer-related genes on the newly re-classified LCCs. The correlation of clinicopathological and genetic data was further analyzed on these samples.
Result:
All 8 patients re-defined as LCCs under WHO 2015 criteria were male and 7 patients were smokers. None of significant difference was found between the LCCs patients and excluded patients under WHO 2015 criteria in terms of age, gender, smoking status, primary site and TNM staging. Although lower OS time was presented in LCCs under WHO 2015 criteria compared with the excluded ones, no significant difference was detected between these two groups (LCC under WHO 2015 criteria vs excluded specimens = 698.75±62.83 vs 1301.03 ±245.40 days, P=0.738). Ten of 46 candidate genes including EGFR, KRAS, TP53, KIT, PIK3CA, PTEN, IDH1, APC, ATM and BRAF were detected in all 24 specimens. Four of all 8 LCC patients under WHO 2015 criteria presented TP53 mutation and two showed concurrent TP53 and KRAS mutations. None of any somatic mutation was detected in the rest 4 of 8 LCCs. LCCs under 2015 criteria showed a lower heterogeneity and lower incidence of TP53 mutation compared to the with excluded specimens (TP53 mutation: LCCs vs excluded specimens=4/8 vs 15/16, p=0.015; Detected mutations: LCCs vs excluded specimens = 2/46 vs 10/46, p=0.030).
Conclusion:
LCCs re-classified by the new criteria remain the features of higher incidence in male and tobacco exposure. No significant difference change in terms of other clinical characteristics. The lower heterogeneity of somatic mutation in LCCs under WHO 2015 criteria might reflect the precision and uniformity of the new classification on the genetic level.
