Upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is the third most common malignancy associated with Lynch syndrome (LS). The current European urology guidelines recommend screening for LS in patients with UTUC up to the age of 60 years. In this study, we examined a cohort of patients with UTUC for potential association with LS in order to establish the sensitivity of current guidelines in detecting LS. A total of 180 patients with confirmed diagnosis of UTUC were enrolled in the study during a 12-year period (2010-2022). Loss of DNA-mismatch repair proteins (MMRp) expression was identified in 15/180 patients (8.3%). Germline analysis was eventually performed in 8 patients confirming LS in 5 patients (2.8%), including 4 germline mutations in MSH6 and 1 germline mutation in MSH2. LS-related UTUC included 3 females and 2 males, with a mean age of 66.2 years (median 71 years, range 46-75 years). Four of five LS patients (all with MSH6 mutation) were older than 65 years (mean age 71.3, median 72 years). Our findings indicate that LS-associated UTUCs can occur in patients with LS older than 60 years. In contrast to previous studies which used mainly highly pre-selected populations with already diagnosed LS, the most frequent mutation in our cohort involved MSH6 gene. All MSH6 mutation carriers were > 65 years, and UTUC was the first LS manifestation in 2/4 patients. Using current screening guidelines, a significant proportion of patients with LS-associated UTUC may be missed. We suggest universal immunohistochemical MMRp screening for all UTUCs, regardless of age and clinical history.

Východiská: Lynchov syndróm (LS) je autozomálne dominantné dedičné ochorenie, ktoré sa prejavuje zvýšením rizika vzniku nádorových ochorení, a to predovšetkým kolorektálneho a endometriálneho karcinómu. Nedávne štúdie preukázali aj asociáciu medzi LS a nádorovým ochorením prsníka. Cieľom tejto štúdie je poukázať na možný výskyt prítomnosti mutácií v génoch asociovaných s LS u pacientov s rakovinou prsníka a na potrebu zahrnúť vyšetrenie Lynch asociovaných génov u pacientov s familiárnym a opakovaným výskytom rakoviny prsníka ako aj s výskytom ďalších Lynch asociovaných nádorových ochorení. Materiál a metódy: Analyzovali sme vzorky nádorového tkaniva od 78 pacientov s primárnym nádorom prsníka. U pacientov sme analyzovali panel génov asociovaný s rizikom vzniku rakoviny prsníka, pričom sme sa v rámci našej štúdie sústredili primárne na výskyt mutácií v mismatch-repair génoch. DNA izolovaná z nádorového tkaniva bola sekvenovaná pomocou metódy sekvenovania novej generácie (next generation sequencing – NGS) a podrobená analýze pomocou nástroja Ingenuity Variant Analysis. Na potvrdenie zárodočnej mutácie sme vyšetrili krvnú vzorku pacientky pomocou NGS. Výsledky: V rámci našej analýzy sa nám v nádorovom tkanive prsníka podarilo identifikovať variant v géne PMS2 u jednej pacientky. Prítomnosť mutácie naznačuje, že vzniknuté nádorové ochorenie môže byť následkom LS. Z hľadiska patogenity sa jednalo o pravdepodobne patogénny variant, nakoľko sme odhalili deléciu v exónovej oblasti, ktorá viedla k frameshift mutácii. Navyše sme identifikovali aj jednonukleotidové patogénne varianty v génoch TP53 a PIK3CA. Pre definitívne stanovenie diagnózy LS u pacientky sme vyšetrili krvnú vzorku, kde sme tiež identifikovali mutáciu génu PMS2. Záver: LS je u mnohých Lynch asociovaných nádorových ochorení poddiagnostikovaný. V prípade familiárneho výskytu rakoviny prsníka a ďalších Lynch asociovaných génov je však dôležité myslieť aj na možnú diagnózu LS a v prípade, že pacient spĺňa diagnostické kritéria, uskutočniť aj genetické vyšetrenie Lynch asociovaných génov.
Background: Lynch syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder which causes an increased risk of cancer, especially colorectal and endometrial carcinomas. Recent studies have shown an association between LS and breast cancer as well. The aim of our study is to highlight the possible presence of mutations in genes associated with LS in patients with breast cancer and the need to include the examination of Lynch-associated genes in patients with a family history of breast cancer as well as in patients with recurrent breast cancer, as well as with the occurrence of other Lynch-associated cancer. Materials and methods: We analyzed tumor tissue samples from 78 patients with primary breast cancer. Our samples were tested with a gene panel associated with the risk of developing breast cancer, while in our study we focused primarily on the occurrence of mutations in mismatch-repair genes. DNA isolated from tumor tissue was sequenced using next generation sequencing (NGS) and analyzed using the Ingenuity Variant Analysis tool. To confirm the germline mutation, we examined the patient‘s blood sample using NGS sequencing. Results: As a result of our analysis, we managed to identify a mutation in the PMS2 gene in one patient‘s breast tumor tissue. The presence of this mutation indicates that the resulting cancer may be a consequence of LS. As for pathogenicity, this was probably a pathogenic variant, as we detected deletions in the exon region, which led to frameshift mutation. Moreover, we also identified single-nucleotide pathogenic variants in the TP53 and PIK3CA genes. To definitively establish the diagnosis of LS in the patient, we examined a blood sample, where we also identified a mutation of the PMS2 gene. Conclusion: LS is underdiagnosed in many Lynch-associated cancers. However, in the case of a familial occurrence of breast cancer and other Lynch-associated genes, it is important to think about a possible diagnosis of LS and, if the patient meets the diagnostic criteria, to carry out a genetic examination of Lynch-associated genes.

BACKGROUND: Vaginal brachytherapy is currently recommended as adjuvant treatment in patients with high-intermediate risk endometrial cancer to maximize local control and has only mild side effects and no or limited impact on quality of life. However, there is still considerable overtreatment and also some undertreatment, which may be reduced by tailoring adjuvant treatment to the patients' risk of recurrence based on molecular tumor characteristics. PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: To compare the rates of vaginal recurrence in women with high-intermediate risk endometrial cancer, treated after surgery with molecular-integrated risk profile-based recommendations for either observation, vaginal brachytherapy or external pelvic beam radiotherapy or with standard adjuvant vaginal brachytherapy STUDY HYPOTHESIS: Adjuvant treatment based on a molecular-integrated risk profile provides similar local control and recurrence-free survival as current standard adjuvant brachytherapy in patients with high-intermediate risk endometrial cancer, while sparing many patients the morbidity of adjuvant treatment and reducing healthcare costs. TRIAL DESIGN: A multicenter, international phase III randomized trial (2:1) of molecular-integrated risk profile-based adjuvant treatment (experimental arm) or adjuvant vaginal brachytherapy (standard arm). MAJOR INCLUSION/EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Women aged 18 years and over with a histological diagnosis of high-intermediate risk endometrioid endometrial cancer after total abdominal or laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. High-intermediate risk factors are defined as: (i) International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics stage IA (with invasion) and grade 3; (ii) stage IB grade 1 or 2 with age ≥60 and/or lymph-vascular space invasion; (iii) stage IB, grade 3 without lymph-vascular space invasion; or (iv) stage II (microscopic and grade 1). ENDPOINTS: The primary endpoint is vaginal recurrence. Secondary endpoints are recurrence-free and overall survival; pelvic and distant recurrence; 5-year vaginal control (including treatment for relapse); adverse events and patient-reported symptoms and quality of life; and endometrial cancer-related healthcare costs. SAMPLE SIZE: 500 eligible and evaluable patients. ESTIMATED DATES FOR COMPLETING ACCRUAL AND PRESENTING RESULTS: Estimated date for completing accrual will be late 2021. Estimated date for presentation of (first) results is expected in 2023. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The trial is registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03469674) and ISRCTN (11659025).

PURPOSE: Constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD) is a highly penetrant cancer predisposition syndrome caused by biallelic mutations in mismatch repair (MMR) genes. As several cancer syndromes are clinically similar, accurate diagnosis is critical to cancer screening and treatment. As genetic diagnosis is confounded by 15 or more pseudogenes and variants of uncertain significance, a robust diagnostic assay is urgently needed. We sought to determine whether an assay that directly measures MMR activity could accurately diagnose CMMRD. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In vitro MMR activity was quantified using a 3'-nicked G-T mismatched DNA substrate, which requires MSH2-MSH6 and MLH1-PMS2 for repair. We quantified MMR activity from 20 Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines from patients with confirmed CMMRD. We also tested 20 lymphoblastoid cell lines from patients who were suspected for CMMRD. We also characterized MMR activity from patients with neurofibromatosis type 1, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, polymerase proofreading-associated cancer syndrome, and Lynch syndrome. RESULTS: All CMMRD cell lines had low MMR activity (n = 20; mean, 4.14 ± 1.56%) relative to controls (n = 6; mean, 44.00 ± 8.65%; P < .001). Repair was restored by complementation with the missing protein, which confirmed MMR deficiency. All cases of patients with suspected CMMRD were accurately diagnosed. Individuals with Lynch syndrome (n = 28), neurofibromatosis type 1 (n = 5), Li-Fraumeni syndrome (n = 5), and polymerase proofreading-associated cancer syndrome (n = 3) had MMR activity that was comparable to controls. To accelerate testing, we measured MMR activity directly from fresh lymphocytes, which yielded results in 8 days. CONCLUSION: On the basis of the current data set, the in vitro G-T repair assay was able to diagnose CMMRD with 100% specificity and sensitivity. Rapid diagnosis before surgery in non-neoplastic tissues could speed proper therapeutic management.
