Mutational Landscape in Resected Periampullary Adenocarcinoma: Relationship With Morphology and Clinical Outcome
(2019) In JCO Precision Oncology 3. p.1-8- Abstract
- PURPOSE Periampullary adenocarcinomas encompass a heterogeneous group of tumors with dismal prognosis
and limited treatment options. Emerging evidence shows that tumor morphology (ie, intestinal type [I-type] or
pancreatobiliary type [PB-type]) is a more relevant prognostic factor than tumor origin. Knowledge is sparse,
however, on whether key mutations differ according to morphology.
MATERIALS AND METHODS Next-generation sequencing was applied to assess the mutational status of 70 genes
in 102 tumors from a retrospective cohort of 175 patients with resected periampullary adenocarcinoma.
Brahma-related gene 1 protein expression was examined by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays with

MATERIALS AND METHODS Next-generation sequencing was applied to assess the mutational status of 70 genes
in 102 tumors from a retrospective cohort of 175 patients with resected periampullary adenocarcinoma.
Brahma-related gene 1 protein expression was examined by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays with
primary tumors from the original cohort.
RESULTS APC mutations were significantly more common in I-type than in PB-type tumors (27.5% v 0%;
P , .001), as were ERBB3 mutations (20.8% v 4.8%; P = .016), whereas CDKN2A mutations were more
common in PB-type than in I-type tumors (19.4% v 2.5%; P = .013). KRAS mutation was an independent
factor of poor prognosis in I-type tumors (hazard ratio, 3.73; 95% CI, 1.10 to 12.67). In PB-type tumors,
SMARCA4 mutation was an adverse prognostic factor in patients not receiving adjuvant chemotherapy,
and there was a significant treatment interaction between expression of Brahma-related gene 1 protein, the
protein encoded by SMARCA4, and adjuvant chemotherapy (Pinteraction = .007).
CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first description of the mutational landscape in the full spectrum of
periampullary adenocarcinoma that demonstrates that the distribution and prognostic and predictive significance
of commonly mutated genes differ by morphology. The results emphasize that morphology is an important
factor to consider in the search for novel biomarkers and targeted personalized treatment of these patients. In
addition, the findings support the concept that molecular profiling of these tumors could be of clinical benefit. (Less)
