ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is essential in treating advanced lung cancer. However, the effectiveness of endoscopic ultrasound with bronchoscope-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-B-FNA) in NGS remains unclear. This study examined the usefulness of EUS-B-FNA in lung cancer NGS cases where EUS-B-FNA was performed for specimen submission in a nationwide genomic screening platform (LC-SCRUM-Asia) and compared specimens collected using other bronchoscopy methods (endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration [EBUS-TBNA] and EBUS-guided transbronchial biopsy with a guide sheath [EBUS-GS-TBB]) during the same period.METHODS:
We retrospectively compared the NGS success rates of NGS, DNA and RNA yields for EUS-B-FNA, EBUS-TBNA, and EBUS-GS-TBB from the records of the patients recruited for the Lung Cancer Genomic Screening Project for Individualized Medicine (LC-SCRUM)-Asia.RESULTS:
Fifty-one patients were enrolled, and the NGS success rates were comparable for samples obtained by EUS-B-FNA, EBUS-TBNA, and EBUS-GS-TBB (100%, 90.9%, and 81.0%, respectively). Genetic alterations were detected in 73.7%, 90.9%, and 85.7% of patients, respectively, with druggable genetic alterations found in 31.6%, 72.7%, and 61.9% of patients, respectively. The DNA and RNA yields were significantly higher in EUS-B-FNA samples than in EBUS-GS-TBB samples (50.4 (interquartile range (IR) 15.45-72.35) ng/µl and 33.9 (IR 9-76.8) ng/µl from EUS-B-FNA, and 3.3 (IR 1.4-7.1) ng/µl and 15.1 (IR 8.3-31.5) ng/µl from EBUS-GS-TBB, respectively, p < 0.05).CONCLUSION:
EUS-B-FNA emerges as a promising bronchoscopic method for obtaining adequate samples for NGS in advanced lung cancer cases.
