ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
In Colombia, thyroid cancer ranks among the highest incidences, yet our population lacks studies on its molecular profile. This study aims to characterize clinical, histopathologic and molecular data in a Colombian cohort with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).METHODS:
A retrospective review of clinical history, clinicopathologic characteristics, treatment and 5-10-year follow-up for all patients was done. DNA and RNA were extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue using the Quick-DNA & RNA FFPE Min iPrep kit (Zymo Research). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis was performed with SOPHiA Solid Tumor Solutions kit (SOPHiA GENETICS). Tumor mutation genomic analysis used SOPHiA DDM™ platform, with descriptive analysis reporting frequencies, means and associations via chi-square analysis.RESULTS:
Among 231 sequenced patients, mean age at diagnosis was 46 (± 12.35) years, with higher frequency in women (81.82%). Two cases were reclassified as non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm (NIFT-P); an NRAS mutation was found in one of them. Predominant histologic subtype was classic PTC (57.64%) followed by tall cell (28.82%). Of the 229 sequenced carcinomas, mutations were identified in 186 cases, including BRAF, IDH1, RAS and PIK3CA. Notable copy number variations (CNVs) were PDGFRA, CDK4 and KIT, with RET being the most frequent gene fusion, including CCDC6-RET in two classic subtype cases.CONCLUSION:
This is the first study in Colombia (TIROSEC) to our knowledge that integrates molecular and histopathologic profiles enriching our local comprehension and knowledge of PTC. The identification of target mutations such as BRAF, RET and NTRK fusions holds the potential to guide targeted therapies for tumor recurrence and predict aggressive behavior.Palavras-chave
