RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Radiographic surveillance of colorectal cancer (CRC) after curative-intent therapy is costly and unreliable. Methylated DNA markers (MDMs) detected primary CRC and metastatic recurrence with high sensitivity and specificity in cross-sectional studies. This study evaluated using serial MDMs to detect recurrence and monitor the treatment response to anti-cancer therapies. METHODS: A nested case-control study was drawn from a prospective cohort of patients with CRC who completed curative-intent therapy for CRC of all stages. Plasma MDMs were assayed vis target enrichment long-probe quantitative-amplified signal assays, normalized to B3GALT6, and analyzed in combination with serum carcinoembryonic antigen to yield an MDM score. Clinical information, including treatment and radiographic measurements of the tumor burden, were longitudinally collected. RESULTS: Of the 35 patients, 18 had recurrence and 17 had no evidence of disease during the study period. The MDM score was positive in 16 out of 18 patients who recurred and only 2 of the 17 patients without recurrence. The MDM score detected recurrence in 12 patients preceding clinical or radiographic detection of recurrent CRC by a median of 106 days (range 90-232 days). CONCLUSIONS: Plasma MDMs can detect recurrent CRC prior to radiographic detection; this tumor-agnostic liquid biopsy approach may assist cancer surveillance and monitoring.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Early identification of human papillomavirus associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPV(+)OPSCC) is challenging and novel biomarkers are needed. We hypothesized that a panel of methylated DNA markers (MDMs) found in HPV(+) cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) will have similar discrimination in HPV(+)OPSCC tissues. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues were obtained from patients with primary HPV(+)OPSCC or HPV(+)CSCC; control tissues included normal oropharynx palatine tonsil (NOP) and cervix (NCS). Using a methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, 21 previously validated cervical MDMs were evaluated on tissue-extracted DNA. Discrimination between case and control cervical and oropharynx tissue was assessed using area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS: 34 HPV(+)OPSCC, 36 HPV(+)CSCC, 26 NOP, and 24 NCS patients met inclusion criteria. Within HPV(+)CSCC, 18/21 (86%) of MDMs achieved an AUC ≥ 0.9 and all MDMs exhibited better than chance classifications relative to control cervical tissue (all p < 0.001). In contrast, within HPV(+)OPSCC only 5/21 (24%) MDMs achieved an AUC ≥ 0.90 but 19/21 (90%) exhibited better than chance classifications relative to control tonsil tissue (all p < 0.001). Overall, 13/21 MDMs had statistically significant lower AUCs in the oropharyngeal cohort compared to the cervical cohort, and only 1 MDM exhibited a statistically significant increase in AUC. CONCLUSIONS: Previously validated MDMs exhibited robust performance in independent HPV(+)CSCC patients. However, most of these MDMs exhibited higher discrimination for HPV(+)CSCC than for HPV(+)OPSCC. This suggests that each SCC subtype requires a unique set of MDMs for optimal discrimination. Future studies are necessary to establish an MDM panel for HPV(+)OPSCC.

RESUMEN

PURPOSE: We aimed to assess the concordance of colorectal cancer-associated methylated DNA markers (MDM) in primary and metastatic colorectal cancer for feasibility in detection of distantly recurrent/metastatic colorectal cancer in plasma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: A panel of previously discovered colorectal cancer-associated MDMs was selected. MDMs from primary and paired metastatic colorectal cancer tissue were assayed with quantitative methylation-specific PCR. Plasma MDMs were measured blindly by target enrichment long-probe quantitative-amplified signal assays. Random forest modeling was used to derive a prediction algorithm of MDMs in archival plasma samples from primary colorectal cancer cases. This algorithm was validated in prospectively collected plasma samples from recurrent colorectal cancer cases. The accuracy of the algorithm was summarized as sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve (AUC). RESULTS: Of the 14 selected MDMs, the concordance between primary and metastatic tissue was considered moderate or higher for 12 MDMs (86%). At a preset specificity of 95% (91%-98%), a panel of 13 MDMs, in plasma from 97 colorectal cancer cases and 200 controls, detected stage IV colorectal cancer with 100% (80%-100%) sensitivity and all stages of colorectal cancer with an AUC of 0.91 (0.87-0.95), significantly higher than carcinoembryonic antigen [AUC, 0.72 (0.65-0.79)]. This panel, in plasma from 40 cases and 60 healthy controls, detected recurrent/metastatic colorectal cancer with 90% (76%-97%) sensitivity, 90% (79%-96%) specificity, and an AUC of 0.96 (0.92-1.00). The panel was positive in 0.30 (0.19-0.43) of 60 patients with no evidence of disease in post-operative patients with colorectal cancer. CONCLUSIONS: Plasma assay of novel colorectal cancer-associated MDMs can reliably detect both primary colorectal cancer and distantly recurrent colorectal cancer with promising accuracy.
