Papel pronóstico del volumen metabólico tumoral y de la glucólisis tumoral total en los estudios 18F-FDG PET/TC de estadificación del cáncer localmente avanzado de mama / Prognostic value of metabolic tumour volume and total lesion glycolysis in 18F-FDG PET/CT scans in locally advanced breast cancer staging

Objetivo. Conocer si el volumen metabólico tumoral (VMT) y la glucólisis tumoral total (GTT) pueden predecir el riesgo de recurrencia en cáncer localmente avanzado de mama (CLAM). Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo de pacientes con CLAM tratados con tratamiento neoadyuvante, local y adyuvante; en seguimiento. Se realizó una 18F-FDG PET/TC para estadificar la enfermedad, midiéndose diferentes parámetros metabólicos (VMT, GTT, SUVmáx y SUVmed), tanto en el tumor primario (T) como en los ganglios metastásicos (N) y en el cuerpo entero (CE). Resultados. Se incluyeron 40 mujeres entre enero de 2010-2011; seguimiento hasta enero de 2015. Con una mediana de seguimiento de 46 meses el 20% tuvieron recidiva, local (n=2) o a distancia (n=6); fallecieron 3 (38% de aquellas con recidiva y 7,5% del total). EL SUVmáx, VMT y GTT, tanto en T, como N y CE, fue mayor en aquellas que presentaron recidiva. En el T tanto el VMT como la GTT se relacionaron con la recidiva de la enfermedad (p=0,020 y p=0,028, respectivamente), mientras que en la N fue el SUVmáx (p=0,008). Los puntos de corte óptimos para predecir recurrencia fueron: VMT T≥19,3cm3, GTT T≥74,4g y SUVmáx N≥13,8, existiendo 10-12 veces más probabilidad de experimentar progresión tumoral cuando superaban estos umbrales. El grado tumoral fue la única variable clínico-patológica asociada con la recidiva (p=0,035). Conclusiones. En este estudio de CLAM los parámetros metabólicos que más se asocian con la tasa de recidiva son el VMT y la GTT en el tumor primario, el SUVmáx en la enfermedad ganglionar regional y los 3 índices PET en el cuerpo entero. Estos parámetros podrían utilizarse en la práctica asistencial para identificar a las pacientes con mayor riesgo (AU)

Objective. To determine whether metabolic tumour volume (MTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) are able to predict recurrence risk in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) patients. Material and methods. Retrospective study of LABC patients who undertook neoadjuvant, local and adjuvant treatment and follow up. A 18F-FDG PET/CT study for initial staging was performed analysing in this study different metabolic parameters (MTV, TLG, SUVmax and SUVmed) both in the primary tumour (T) as well as in axillary nodes (N) and whole-body (WB). Results. Forty females were included between January 2010-2011; follow up until January 2015 was completed. The average follow-up was 46 months. Twenty percent presented recurrence: local disease (n=2) and distant metastasis (n=6); 3 patients died (38% of the patients which recurred and 7.5% from the total). SUVmax, MTV and TLG, in T, N and WB, were higher in those patients with recurrence. The MTV and TLG parameters in the tumour (T) were related to the recurrence rate (P=.020 and P=.028, respectively); whereas SUVmax in the lymph nodes (N) was significantly related (P=.008) to the recurrence rate. The best cut-off points to predict recurrence where: MTV T ≥19.3cm3, TLG T≥74.4g and SUVmax N≥13.8, being 10-12 times more likely to recidivate when these thresholds where exceeded. Tumour grade was the only clinical-pathological variable which was related to recurrence probability (p=.035). Conclusions. In this study of LABC patients the metabolic parameters which have a better relationship with recurrence rate are: MTV and TLG in the primary tumour, SUVmax in the regional lymph node disease and whole-body PET data (AU)

Respuesta patológica en la axila tras quimioterapia neoadyuvante en el cáncer de mama localmente avanzado con afectación axilar / Axillary pathologic response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer with axillary involvement

Objetivo. Comparar la afectación axilar (N+) al diagnóstico en el cáncer de mama localmente avanzado (CMLA), con el resultado histopatológico en la axila tras el tratamiento quimioterápico neoadyuvante (QTN). Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo entre noviembre de 2011 y septiembre de 2013 de los CMLA tratadas con QTN basada en docetaxel (asociando trastuzumab en los casos HER2 positivos y carboplatino/adriamicina si HER2 negativos). Los casos con sospecha clínica/radiológica de N+ se confirmaron histológicamente. Si no existía sospecha, se estadificó con la técnica de biopsia radioguiada del ganglio centinela (BRGC), mediante la inyección de 99mTc-nanocoloide de albúmina, previa a la QTN. En los casos N+ se realizó linfadenectomía axilar (LA) tras QTN. Clasificamos la respuesta patológica final como completa (RCp) cuando no hubo evidencia de enfermedad tumoral y como no respuesta patológica (NRp) en caso contrario. Resultados. Revisamos 346 pacientes tratados con docetaxel, donde identificamos 105 CMLA. En 70 (67%) se evidenció infiltración tumoral axilar antes de iniciar la QTN. De estas, el 73% (n = 51) presentaban N+ por punción-aspiración con aguja fina (PAAF) y/o biopsia ganglionar, y las restantes 19 (27%) presentaban N+ oculta demostrada por la BRGC. La LA evidenció RCp axilar en el 56% (39/70); aumentando hasta un 84% cuando el estatus inicial N+ se alcanzó por BRGC, frente a un 45% cuando se llegó al diagnóstico de N+ por PAAF/biopsia ganglionar. Conclusión. Más de la mitad de las mujeres con cáncer de mama localmente avanzado con afectación tumoral axilar al diagnóstico presentan axilas libres de enfermedad metastásica tras el efecto terapéutico de la quimioterapia neoadyuvante. Esto aumenta hasta casi el 90% cuando se trata de axilas metastásicas ocultas detectadas mediante el ganglio centinela antes de iniciar la quimioterapia neoadyuvante (AU)

Aim. To compare axillary involvement (N+) at initial staging in locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) with axillary lymphadenectomy histologic results after neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment (NeoChemo). Material and methods. Retrospective study between November 2011 and September 2013 of LABC cases treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy based on docetaxel (associated with trastuzumab in HER2 positive cases and carboplatin/adriamycin in HER2 negative cases). Those clinically or radiologically suspected cases of axillary involvement were histologically confirmed. When there was no suspicion of axillary involvement, sentinel lymph node radioguided biopsy (SLNRB) was performed using intradermal injection of 99mTc-nanocolloid albumin prior to neoadjuvant treatment. Axillary lymphadenectomy after NeoChemo was undertaken in all cases with positive axilla. Final pathologic response was classified as complete (pCR) when there was no evidence of tumoral disease and as non-pathologic complete response (no pCR) in the opposite case. Results. A total of 346 patients treated with docetaxel were reviewed, identifying 105 LABC. Axillary involvement at initial staging was detected in 70 (67%) before starting NeoChemo. From these 70, 73% (n = 51) were N+ (fine needle biopsy and/or biopsy) and the remaining 19 (27%) were occult N+ detected by SLNRB. Axillary lymphadenectomy detected pCR in 56% (39/70), increasing up to 84% pCR when initial N+ status was reached using SNLB. On the other hand, when N+ was detected using fine needle biopsy/lymph biopsy, pCR was only 45%. Conclusion. More than 50% of women affected by locally advanced breast cancer with tumoral axillary involvement at initial diagnosis present free metastatic axilla after therapeutic neoadjuvant chemotherapy effect. This increases up to almost 90% in case of occult metastatic axilla detected with sentinel node biopsy prior starting neoadjuvant chemotherapy (AU)
