| Popis: | Introduction: Malignant phyllodes tumors are rare breast malignancies (0.1% of all breast tumors) with limited effective treatment options for recurrent and metastatic disease. Recent trials indicated a potential for anti-angiogenic therapy in soft tissue sarcomas, which led us to investigate these pathways. Materials and Methods: Thirty-five malignant phyllodes tumors (including two cases with matched primary and metastatic tumors) were profiled using gene sequencing (Next-generation and Sanger), gene copy number analysis (in-situ hybridization), whole genome RNA expression, and protein expression (immunohistochemical assay). Results: RNA microarray assay showed consistent over-expression of genes involved in angiogenesis including VEGFA, Angiopoietin2, VCAM1, PDGFRA, PTTG1, and CYP3A5 in all cases analyzed (n=5). No mutations in KDR (VEGFR2) were detected (0/26). EGFR protein overexpression was observed in 25/26 (96%) of cases with amplification of the EGFR gene in 8 cases (33%). EGFR gene mutations were identified in 2 cases (8%) including one case with presumed pathogenic V774M mutation and one case with EGFRvIII mutation. The most common mutations included those of TP53 (50%) and PIK3CA (15%) while other mutations (BRCA1, BRCA2, RET, CDH1, MLH1, ATM) were rare affecting single phyllodes cases. Two cases with matched primary and metastatic cancers harbored the same mutations in both sites (PIK3CA/KRAS and RB1 gene mutations, respectively). Conclusions: Comprehensive multiplatform profiling approach to phyllodes tumors identifies various molecular alterations of which some are potentially actionable. Our data suggests that anti-angiogenic therapy may also be effective in patients with malignant phyllodes tumor. Evaluation of EGFR pathway discovered consistent protein over-expression but rare activating mutations, which necessitates refinement in patient selection targeting these pathways.
