Transcription Factor 1

<p>There is a correlation between mutation of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) and lung adenocarcinoma. Unfortunately, examination for EGFR mutation is difficult because surgery must be conducted to obtain the best specimen. Thyroid Transcription Factor-1 (TTF-1) is a marker for lung adenocarcinoma. This observational study took place at Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital from stored biological materials from 2013-2018. Samples were lung adenocarcinoma patients that undergo EGFR examination. Data then analyzed using Fischer's Exact Test to determine the relationship between EGFR and TTF-1. Specificity/sensitivity value is 0.75/0.90, p: 0.617, odds ratio 0.333 (0.032-3.515). However, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve of TTF- 1 show AUC 0.614 (95CI, 0.35- 0.878). TTF-1 examination has a moderate strength in determining EGFR mutation on lung adenocarcinoma patients at Dr. Saiful Anwar Hospital.         </p>

Transcription Factor 1

Background: The introduction of new therapies has made it important to differentiate between adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. To allow the use of various immunocytochemical stains on limited materials, we tried transferring cells from a given smear to multiple slides. Using touch-preparation samples of 215 surgically resected non-small cell lung carcinomas of confirmed histologic classification (adenocarcinoma,n = 101; squamous cell carcinoma,n = 114), we performed immunocytochemistry for thyroid transcription factor-1, napsin A, p40, p63, CK5/6 and desmocollin-3, and compared cytologic staining results with the corresponding resection. Methods: We examined: (a) the expressions of the above 6 antibodies on cells transferred from touch imprints of resected specimens, the extent of staining being considered positive if more than 5% of the area was stained, and (b) the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value for each antibody. Results: The histologic corresponding rate with Papanicolaou staining was only 73%. Regarding the differentiation of adenocarcinoma from squamous cell carcinoma, the sensitivity and specificity for napsin A in adenocarcinoma were 80 and 97%, respectively, while those for p40 in squamous cell carcinoma were 84 and 98%, respectively. Conclusion: The immunocytochemical expressions of napsin A and p40 in imprint cytology seem to be of great utility for the accurate histological differentiation of lung cancers.

Therapeutic Decisions

Significant advances in targeted therapy have been made in recent years for patients with lung adenocarcinoma. These targeted therapies have made molecular testing of paramount importance to drive therapeutic decisions. Material for testing is often limited, particularly in cytology specimens and small core biopsies. A reliable screening tool is invaluable in triaging limited tissue and selection for epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR) mutation testing. We hypothesized that the immunohistochemistry (IHC) profile of lung adenocarcinoma predicts EGFR mutation status. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1)/napsin A IHC profile and EGFR mutation status in 339 lung adenocarcinomas at our academic institution. In our cohort, we found that 92.3% of cases were positive for TTF-1 and/or napsin A by IHC with an EGFR positivity rate of 17.3%. Importantly, 7.7% of the cases were dual TTF-1/napsin A negative, and none of these cases contained EGFR mutations. This finding supports the use of TTF-1 and napsin A IHC to identify cases where EGFR mutation status will be negative, thus preserving limited tissue for other ancillary testing.

ZusammenfassungEs wird über den Fall eines PSA-negativen und lokal fortgeschrittenen azinären Prostatakarzinoms berichtet, das bei thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) Expression eine Metastase eines bereits behandelten Bronchialkarzinoms imitierte. Unseres Wissens ist ein TTF-1 positiv azinäres Prostatakarzinom bisher nur ein Mal in der Literatur dokumentiert. Die Bestimmung des Immunophänotyps des Karzinoms mit Napsin A, CK7 und CK20 in Kombination mit der Beurteilung des gesamten Krankheitsverhaltens waren für die definitive Diagnose eines primären Prostatakarzinoms entscheidend.
