SMARCA4蛋白表达缺失性子宫内膜去分化癌/未分化癌的临床病理分析
Dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma/undifferentiated endometrial carcinoma with loss of expression of SMARCA4: clinicopathological features analysis
摘要目的:探讨SMARCA4(是SWI/SNF染色质重塑复合物中的核心催化亚基)蛋白表达缺失性子宫内膜去分化癌/未分化癌(DDEC/UDEC)的临床病理特征。方法:收集2019年1月至2023年12月在福建省肿瘤医院确诊的DDEC/UDEC患者共48例,其中SMARCA4蛋白表达缺失性DDEC/UDEC患者10例,分析其临床和病理特征(形态学、免疫表型)、分子分型及预后。结果:(1)临床特征:10例SMARCA4蛋白表达缺失性DDEC/UDEC患者的中位年龄为56岁(范围:48~65岁),国际妇产科联盟(FIGO)分期Ⅰ~Ⅱ期和Ⅲ~Ⅳ期各5例。(2)病理特征:肿瘤细胞黏附性差,常见脉管内癌栓(8/10),部分可见泡状核细胞(6/10)、横纹肌样细胞(4/10)及组织细胞吞噬凋亡小体或碎片形成的星空现象(4/10);6例(6/10)错配修复(MMR)蛋白表达缺失,2例(2/10)p53蛋白突变型表达,5例(5/10)细胞程序性死亡配体1(PD-L1)阳性表达。(3)分子分型:10例患者中,POLE突变(POLEmut)型1例(1/10),错配修复缺陷(MMR-d)型5例(5/10),p53异常型1例(1/10),无特异性分子改变(NSMP)型3例(3/10)。(4)预后:10例患者的中位随访时间20个月(范围:7~42个月),随访期内5例(5/10)因肿瘤进展、多发转移死亡,其余5例(5/10)术后定期复查,未见复发征象。2年无进展生存率和总生存率分别为58.3%和52.5%。结论:SMARCA4蛋白表达缺失见于约1/5的DDEC/UDEC患者,具有较高的侵袭性,预后较差。SMARCA4蛋白表达缺失性DDEC/UDEC患者中,约半数存在MMR蛋白表达缺失和PD-L1蛋白阳性表达,提示其可能会从免疫检查点抑制剂治疗中获益。

abstractsObjective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of dedifferentiated endometrial carcinoma/undifferentiated endometrial carcinoma (DDEC/UDEC) with loss of expression of SMARCA4.Methods:A total of 10 cases with loss of expression of SMARCA4 were diagnosed at Fujian Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and December 2023. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical characteristics, morphology, immunophenotype, molecular classification, and prognosis.Results:(1) Clinical characteristics: among 10 cases of DDEC/UDEC with loss of expression of SMARCA4, the patients′ age ranged from 48 to 65 years, with a median age of 56 years.Five cases were classified as International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ, while the remaining five were categorized as stages Ⅲ-Ⅳ. (2) Pathological features: tumor cells exhibited poor cell adhesion, with common intravascular tumor emboli (8/10), occasional vacuolated nuclei (6/10), rhabdoid cells (4/10), and starry sky phenomenon formed by tissue cell phagocytosis apoptosis bodies or fragments (4/10). Six cases (6/10) showed loss of mismatch repair (MMR) protein expression, two cases (2/10) exhibited p53 mutant expression, and five cases (5/10) tested positive for programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1). (3) Molecular subtyping: molecular subtyping revealed POLEmut in 1 case (1/10), mismatch repair deficient (MMR-d) in 5 cases (5/10), p53 abn in 1 case (1/10), and no specific molecular profile (NSMP) in 3 cases (3/10). (4) Prognosis: the follow-up period ranged from 7 to 42 months, with a median of 20 months. Five patients succumbed to the tumor, whereas the remaining five exhibited no recurrence during subsequent postoperative evaluations. The 2-year progression-free survival rates and overall survival rates were 58.3% and 52.5%, respectively.Conclusions:Loss of expression of SMARCA4 occurs in approximately 1/5 of DDEC/UDEC, which presents with an aggressive clinical course and a poor prognosis. About half of them show MMR protein loss expression and PD-L1 positive expression, suggesting that there might be benefit from treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors.
