ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
Despite recommendations for integrating molecular classification of endometrial cancers (EC) into pathology reporting and clinical management, uptake is inconsistent. To assign ProMisE subtype, all molecular components must be available (POLE mutation status, mismatch repair (MMR) and p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC)) and often these are assessed at different stages of care and/or at different centres resulting in delays in treatment. We assessed a single-test DNA-based targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) molecular classifier (ProMisE NGS), comparing concordance and prognostic value to the original ProMisE classifier.METHODS:
DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) ECs that had previously undergone ProMisE molecular classification (POLE sequencing, IHC for p53 and MMR). DNA was sequenced using the clinically validated Imagia Canexia Health Find It™ amplicon-based NGS gene panel assay to assess for pathogenic POLE mutations (unchanged from original ProMisE), TP53 mutations (in lieu of p53 IHC), and microsatellite instability (MSI) (in lieu of MMR IHC),with the same order of segregation as original ProMisE used for subtype assignment. Molecular subtype assignment of both classifiers was compared by concordance metrics and Kaplan-Meier survival statistics.RESULTS:
The new DNA-based NGS molecular classifier (ProMisE NGS) was used to determine the molecular subtype in 164 ECs previously classified with ProMisE. 159/164 cases were concordant with a kappa statistic of 0.96 and an overall accuracy of 0.97. Prognostic differences in progression-free, disease-specific and overall survival between the four molecular subtypes were observed for the new NGS classifier, recapitulating the survival curves of the original ProMisE classifier. ProMisE NGS was 100% concordant between matched biopsy and hysterectomy samples.CONCLUSION:
ProMisE NGS is feasible on standard FFPE material, demonstrates high concordance with the original ProMisE classifier and maintains prognostic value in EC. This test has the potential to facilitate implementation of molecular classification of EC at the time of first diagnosis.Palabras clave
