Next-generation sequencing analysis of genetic profiling and its relationship with clinicopathologic characteristics of thyroid carcinoma:a single-center retrospec-tive cohort study
Translated Abstract
Purpose To investigate the relationships between the genetic variations and clinicopathological fea-tures of thyroid carcinoma in a single-center cohort.Methods The correlation between genetic profiling and clinico-pathologic characteristics of thyroid carcinomas detected by next-generation sequencing was analyzed.Results 93.7%of 238 cases of thyroid cancer had Class Ⅰ or Class Ⅱ variations.Compared with TCGA cohort,the single-center of pa-tients with papillary thyroid cancer(PTC)were younger(44.4±12.4 vs 46.8±15.5,P=0.043),and the rate of lymph node metastasis was higher(57.5%vs 49.2%,P=0.046).The frequency of BRAF gene mutation was signifi-cantly higher(82.4%vs 59.7%,P<0.001),that of RAS gene mutation(2.3%vs 12.9%,P<0.001)and TERT promoter mutation was lower(1.8%vs 9.4%,P<0.001).There were no differences in the incidences of RET fusion(5.4%vs 6.8%,P=0.484)and NTRK fusion(4.1%vs 2.1%,P=0.127).Gene mutations were detected in 210 of 221(95.0%)patients with PTC,including BRAF(182/221,82.4%),RET fusion(12/221,5.4%),NTRK fusion(9/221,4.1%),FGFR amplification(6/221,2.7%),CCND1 amplification(6/221,2.7%),FGFR19 am-plification(6/221,2.7%),RAS(5/221,2.3%),PIK3CA(5/221,2.3%),and TERT(4/221,1.8%).NTRK fusion was associated with younger age(P=0.049)and higher T stage(P=0.005),while TERT promoter mutation was associated with older age(P=0.003)and higher T stage(P=0.001).8.6%(19/221)of thyroid papillary car-cinoma had at least two driver gene variants and tended to occur in patients with older age(P=0.001)and higher T tage(P=0.001).Higher mutation allele fraction(MAF)of BRAF was associated with T stage(P<0.001)and N stage(P=0.017).Conclusion Chinese patients with papillary thyroid carcinomapatients show unique genetic vari-ant characteristics,and the patients with NTRK fusion,TERT promoter mutation,multiple driver gene variations,or high MAF of BRAF show specific clinicopathologic features.
