RESUMO

Background: The sentinel lymph node is the first node that cancer cells reach when migrating from the primary site. However, oncological outcomes after sentinel lymph node biopsy (SNB) have not been reported for cervical cancer. In this study, oncological outcomes were compared between patients receiving SNB and pelvic lymphadenectomy (PLD) for early-stage cervical cancer. Methods: One hundred and four patients with clinical stage 1A2, 1B1, and 2A1 cervical cancer were included in this study. All patients underwent laparoscopic or robot-assisted radical hysterectomy with SNB or PLD. Fifty-two patients with tumors ≤2 cm underwent SNB. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between the groups. Results: The median (interquartile range) tumor size was 12 (7-20) mm in the SNB group and 20 (13-25) mm in the PLD group. Lymph node metastasis occurred in one patient in the SNB group and in nine patients in the PLD group. The median follow-up periods were 42 (24-60) and 82 (19-101) months in the SNB group and PLD group, respectively. The 3-year DFS rates were 100% in SNB and 91.5% in PLD. The 3-year OS was 100% in both groups. Conclusions: SNB was sufficient in cervical cancer patients with tumors ≤2 cm, suggesting that PLD might not be necessary for these patients.

RESUMO

Background: The application of personalized cancer treatment based on genetic information and surgical samples has begun in the field of cancer medicine. However, a biopsy may be painful for patients with advanced diseases that do not qualify for surgical resection. Patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) are cancer models in which patient samples are transplanted into immunodeficient mice. PDXs are expected to be useful for personalized medicine. The aim of this study was to establish a PDX from body fluid (PDX-BF), such as peritoneal and pleural effusion samples, to provide personalized medicine without surgery. Methods: PDXs-BF were created from patients with ovarian cancer who had positive cytology findings based on peritoneal and pleural effusion samples. PDXs were also prepared from each primary tumor. The pathological findings based on immunohistochemistry were compared between the primary tumor, PDX, and PDX-BF. Further, genomic profiles and gene expression were evaluated using DNA and RNA sequencing to compare primary tumors, PDXs, and PDX-BF. Results: Among the 15 patients, PDX-BF was established for 8 patients (5 high-grade serous carcinoma, 1 carcinosarcoma, 1 low-grade serous carcinoma, and 1 clear cell carcinoma); the success rate was 53%. Histologically, PDXs-BF have features similar to those of primary tumors and PDXs. In particular, PDXs-BF had similar gene mutations and expression patterns to primary tumors and PDXs. Conclusions: PDX-BF reproduced primary tumors in terms of pathological features and genomic profiles, including gene mutation and expression. Thus, PDX-BF may be a potential alternative to surgical resection for patients with advanced disease.

RESUMO

Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models retain the characteristics of tumors and are useful tools for personalized therapy and translational research. In this study, we aimed to establish PDX models for uterine corpus malignancies (UC-PDX) and analyze their similarities. Tissue fragments obtained from 92 patients with uterine corpus malignancies were transplanted subcutaneously into immunodeficient mice. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses were performed to compare tumors of patients with PDX tumors. DNA and RNA sequencing were performed to validate the genetic profile. Furthermore, the RNA in extracellular vesicles (EVs) extracted from primary and PDX tumors was analyzed. Among the 92 cases, 52 UC-PDX models were established, with a success rate of 56.5%. The success rate depended on tumor histology and staging. The pathological and immunohistochemical features of primary and PDX tumors were similar. DNA sequencing revealed similarities in gene mutations between the primary and PDX tumors. RNA sequencing showed similarities in gene expressions between primary and PDX tumors. Furthermore, the RNA profiles of the EVs obtained from primary and PDX tumors were similar. As UC-PDX retained the pathological and immunohistochemical features and gene profiles of primary tumors, they may provide a platform for developing personalized medicine and translational research.
