Pathological relationship between circulating tumor DNA and EGFR,KRAS and NRAS mutant resectable non-small cell lung cancer
To investigate the relationship between the circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and the clinicopathological features of epidermal growth factor receptor gene (EGFR),Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene (KRAS),and neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene (NRAS) in patients with mutant resectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods
2
Thirty-six patients with NSCLC who underwent surgical resection in our hospital and had matched plasma samples in the biobank were included for mutation analysis.The EGFR,KRAS and NRAS mutations of plasma ctDNA and biopsy tissue were analyzed by peptide nucleic acid clamp PCR to explore the relationship between plasma ctDNA shedding and clinicopathological features of patients.
Results
2
The consistency of EGFR,KRAS and NRAS in biopsy tissue and plasma samples of 36 pa
tients was 63.89% (23/36),88.89% (32/36) and 86.11% (31/36),respectively. In mutant tumors,the sensitivity of EGFR,KRAS and NRAS mutation detection in plasma ctDNA was 23.53% (4/17),33.33% (2/6) and 40.00% (2/5),respectively. In patients with adenocarcinoma,plasma ctDNA shedding was associated with higher tumor stage,N stage,TNM stage,tumor necrosis rate,mitotic count 10HPFs,larger maximum tumor diameter and tumor volume (
P
<
0.05).In subgroup analysis of lung adenocarcinoma patients,ctDNA shedding was significantly associated with higher N stage,vascular invasion rate,tumor necrosis rate,and mitotic count 10HPFs,as well as larger maximum tumor diameter and tumor volume (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion
2
The shedding of ctDNA in lung adenocarcinoma is associated with primary tumor diameter,volume,and aggressive histological features (such as necrosis and high mitotic count).
