Advanced Thyroid Cancer

Locally advanced thyroid cancer exhibits aggressive clinical features requiring extensive neck dissection. Therefore, it is important to identify changes in the tumor biology before local progression. Here, whole exome sequencing (WES) using tissues from locally advanced papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) presented a large number of single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in the metastatic lymph node (MLN), but not in normal tissues and primary tumors. Among those MLN-specific SNVs, a novel HHIP G516R (G1546A) mutation was also observed. Interestingly, in-depth analysis for exome sequencing data from the primary tumor presented altered nucleotide ‘A’ at a very low frequency indicating intra-tumor heterogeneity between the primary tumor and MLN. Computational prediction models such as PROVEAN and Polyphen suggested that HHIP G516R might affect protein function and stability. In vitro, HHIP G516R increased cell proliferation and promoted cell migration in thyroid cancer cells. HHIP G516R, a missense mutation, could be a representative example for the intra-tumor heterogeneity of locally advanced thyroid cancer, which can be a potential future therapeutic target for this disease.

Abstract Background: Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is unique among cancers in that patient age is a consideration in staging. One of the most important modifications in the 8th Edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) classification is to increase the age cut off for risk stratification in PTC from 45 to 55 years. However, whether this cut off is useful in clinical practice remains controversial. In the present study, we assessed how well this new age threshold stratifies patients with aggressive PTC.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological features and overall survival rate of patients with PTC admitted to and surgically treated at a single surgical center. The study protocol was divided into two series. In each series all patients (n=523) were divided in 2 groups according to age cut off. In the first series (cut off 45) patients <45 (n=193) vs. ≥45 (n=330) were compared, and in the second series (cut off 55) patients <55 (n=306) vs. ≥55 (n=217) were compared.Results: The rate of the prevalence of locally advanced disease (pT3 and pT4) was significantly higher in the patients above 55 years old than in those below 55 years old (p=0.013). No significant differences were found for this parameter in series with cut off point 45 years old. A significantly higher risk of locally advanced disease T3+T4 (OR=4.87) and presence of LNM (N1) (OR=3.78) was observed in ≥45 years old group (p=0.021 and p<0.0001, respectively). More expressive results were found for the patients ≥55 years old group, where the risk of locally advanced disease (T3+T4) was higher (OR=5.21) and LNM presence was OR=4.76 (p<0.001 and p<0.0001, respectively). None of the patients below 55 years old showed distant metastasis, but 19 patients above 55 years old showed M1 (p<0.0001). In older patients group (≥55 years old) we observed deaths related thyroid cancer in 11 individuals.Conclusions: The age cut off of 55 years old for risk stratification proposed by the 8th Edition of AJCC effectively stratifies PTC patients with a poor prognosis, indicating it is likely to be useful in clinical practice.

Abstract Purpose Lipid metabolism plays important roles not only in the structural basis and energy supply of healthy cells but also in the oncogenesis and progression of cancer. In this study, we investigate the prognostic value of lipid metabolism related genes in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Methods The in time to recurrence predictive gene signature was developed, internally and externally validated based on PTC datasets including The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and GSE33630 datasets. Univariate, LASSO and multivariate Cox regression analysis were applied to assess prognostic genes and build the prognostic gene signature. The expression profiles of prognostic genes were further determined by immunohistochemistry by using in-house cohorts which enrolled 97 patients. Kaplan-Meier curve, time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve, nomogram and decision curve analysis were used to assess the performance of the gene signature. Results We identified four recurrence-related genes, PDZK1IP1, TMC3, LRP2 and KCNJ13, and established a 4-gene signature recurrence risk model. The expression profile of the 4 genes in the TCGA and in-house cohort indicated that stage T1/T2 PTC and locally advanced PTC exhibited notable associations not only with clinicopathological parameters but also with recurrence. Calibration analysis plots indicated the excellent predictive performance of the prognostic nomogram constructed based on the gene signature. GSEA showed that high-risk cases exhibited changes in several important tumorigenesis-related pathways, such as the intestinal immune network and the p53 and Hedgehog signalling pathways. Conclusion Our findings indicate that lipid metabolism-related gene profiling represents a potential marker for prognosis and treatment decisions for PTC patients.
