NEOPLASIA REVIEW PLUS 9-16-2014 T. Davis
2
1. A new test for prostate cancer (PC) is developed. 90% of men with PC test positive. 80% of men without PC test negative. 2. In a population of 1000 men, 30% (300 men) have the disease (the prevalence is 30%). Calculate sensitivity, specificity and PPV.
3
Sensitivity and specificity 90% sensitivity 90% of 1000 or 900 would be the true positives 10% of 1000 or 100 would be the false negatives 80% specificity 80% of 1000 or 800 would be the true negatives 20% of 1000 or 200 would be the false positives
4
PPV (predictive value) of a + with a prevalence of 30% 410 men have a positive test: 270 TP (90%x300) and 140 FP (20%x700) PPV= TP/FP+TP PPV= 270 / 270 + 140 270/410 or about 66%

16
Ans. C, SCC of Lung These tumors frequently make a parathormone-like substance resulting in hypercalcemia and metastatic calcifications in lung and kidney.
17
Anaplasia = Lack of differentiation Anaplasia is considered a hallmark of malignant transformation. Anaplastic features include: - Cellular/nuclear pleomorphism - Increased nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio - Nuclear hyperchromasia (increased DNA content) - Large nucleoli - Also called: Undifferentiated, poorly differentiated, high grade
18
Anaplastic rhabdomyosarcoma
19
GRADING TUMORS Malignant tumors only Differentiation and mitotic rate Grades I-III/IV (higher grades are more anaplastic) Important for some tumors: breast, prostate, endometrium, astocytomas Dysplasias of the cervix are “graded” Based on microscopic features

22
STAGING TUMORS How far has the tumor spread Malignant tumors only Tumor size (T), lymph node (LN) involvement, distant metastases (M) Staging often involves: the Pathologist, radiology or other imaging, lab tests (tumor markers) CIS is referred to as Stage Zero
23
METASTASIS LIVER: (portal circulation) GI tract and pancreas; lung, breast, melanomas LUNG: breast, stomach, sarcomas BONE: 3 rd most frequent site for metastases; lung, breast, prostate, kidney, thyroid; PROSTATE to bone gives osteoblastic lesions on Xray and high serum alkaline phosphatatse ADRENAL: most common endocrine site
24
COLON CANCER Grading is not very helpful STAGING: predicts clinical outcome TNM Robbins Table 17-11
26
Tumor Size (T) Tis- insitu; not through the muscularis mucosa T1- invades submucosa T2- into but not through the muscularis propria T3- through muscularis propria T4- invades adjacent organs
27
TNM Staging System
28
Lymph Nodes (N) N0- no nodes involved N1- 1-3 regional LNs N2- 4+ regional LNs
29
Distant Metastases (M) M0- no distant metastasis M1- distant mets present *note Tx, Nx, Mx- cannot be assessed
30
Which of the following best describes colon cancer? A. Grading is very important B. Staging is not important C. Inactivation of a supressor gene D. X-linked recessive inheritance pattern E. Autosomal recessive inheritance pattern
31
Answer: C, inactivation of APC This disorder is autosomal dominant with the APC supressor gene on chromosome 5.
32
COLON CANCER OTHER 50% of colorectal carcinomas show “ras” mutations; 50% of adenomas > 1cm also show ras mutations CEA (carcinoembryonic Ag) can be used to follow patients after surgery- tumor monitoring using a tumor marker (CEA also done with PSA, HCG etc. Deeply infiltrating tumors cause desmoplasia and cause “apple core/ napkin-ring” appearance
35
Name the most common human tumor supressor genes and protooncogene (RESPECTIVELY) A. P53 and RB B. P53 and RAS C. RB and RAS D. APC and P53 E. APC and RB
36
Answer: B, P53 and RAS P53 is the tumor supressor gene mutated in over 50% of human tumors. The mutation prevents DNA repair and inhibits apoptosis. The point mutation in the proto-oncogene RAS allows cell proliferation (GTP signal transduction) and is seen 30+% of human tumors
38
What tumor markers are useful in management of colon cancer? A. CEA is used to monitor tumor recurrence B. CEA is used as a screening test for colon cancer C. CEA is used as a confirmation test if the test for occult blood is positive D. High PSA in serum is diagnostic E. High AFP in serum is diagnostic
39
Answer: A, used to monitor tumor recurrence CEA is not specific for colon cancer and not a sensitive test. CEA levels are determined pre- and post-surgery. The CEA level should fall to near zero. If the level falls and then increases, the patient may receive chemotherapy for the recurrence.
40
Markers CEA- colon, pancreas, stomach, lung, breast, (19% smokers, 3% gen. pop.) AFP- hepatocellular, germ cell (>500ng/ml) CA 125- 80% non-mucinous ovarian CA CA 19-9- pancreatic CA (80%)
41
Markers (2) PSA- (0-4 ng/ml normal) (>10 ng/ml highly suspicious); also AlkPhos elevation in prostate CA assoc. with bone metastasis (osteoblastic) HCG- gestational trophoblastic tumors, testicular tumors

BREAST CARCINOMA GRADING Bloom and Richardson Tubules present (1-3) Nuclear atypia (1-3) Mitoses (1-3) Total score 3-5: Grade I Total score 6,7: Grade II Total score 8,9: Grade III
48
Breast carcinoma- Grade I
49
BREAST CARCINOMA STAGING Stage 0 (in situ or CIS): 5-year 92% Stage I. (<2 cm & LN-): 5-year 87% Stage II. (2-5 cm & 1-3 LN+): 5-year 75% *Stage III. (5 cm & >4 LN+): 5-year 46% Stage IV. Distant mets: 5-year 13%
50
Invasive (infiltrating) ductal carcinoma with lymphatic invasion
51
BREAST CARCINOMA OTHER Estrogen receptor (+): tumor is stimulated by estrogen and can be treated with the “anti-estrogen” tamoxifen. This is palliation. HER-2 Neu amplification: by immunostaining or FISH. If HER-2 Neu is amplified (20%), the patient can be treated with Herceptin. This is very expensive and tends to be used in high grade/high stage lesions that are HER-2 Neu positive.

Squamous Carcinoma of Cervix Squamous metaplasia Dysplasia CIS Microinvasive cancer (<5mm below BM) Invasive cancer (>5mm below BM Stage I: 5-year is 90% Stage II: 5-year is 70% Stage IV: 5-year is 10%
55
HPV and Cervical Cancer HPV DNA types 6 and 11: condyloma HPV 16, 18, 13 others: carcinoma Viral protein E7 acts via retinoblastoma gene protein Viral protein E6 acts via to P53 (TP53). Proliferation is stimulated and apoptosis is inhibited

59
What is the most sensitive test for high grade dysplasia of the cervix? A. Pap smear B. HPV DNA or RNA test for high risk types C. HPV culture for DNA type 16 D. HPV culture for DNA type 18 E. HPV serum antibodies to DNA type 16
60
HPV DNA or RNA test are more sensitive tests for High Grade dysplasia Pap smear 55% HPV DNA 95% **RNA test more specific- requires integration into host DNA for expression
61
LUNG CANCER Large cell carcinomas, adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas: can be cured by surgery if caught early (<1/3); radiation may offer palliation; chemotherapy and targeted therapy improving for adenocarcinomas SMALL CELL carcinoma: “always” metastatic at diagnosis, therefore, surgery usually not an option; remains poorly controlled by chemotherapy

69
Neoplasms Benign Non-invasive Non-metastatic Malignant Invasive Metastatic or non- metastatic
70
Malignant Tumor Properties Penetration of the basement membrane Invasion and destruction of surrounding tissue Penetrate organ walls or fungate through the surface Local invasion, like metastasis is a marker for malignancy See Robbins Table 7-2 for benign vs malignant features
71
Exceptions to the Rule Benign tumors that may kill the patient Meningioma Leiomyoma Malignant tumors without metastasis Glioblastoma multiforme Basal cell carcinoma
72
Metastasis #1 marker of malignancy Exceptions: gliomas (astrocytomas) of the brain and basal cell carcinomas of the skin RARELY metastasize; also, meningiomas LOCALLY invade skull bone, but do not metastasize and are considered benign. ** On board exams they sometimes substitute invasiveness for metastasis
73
Glioblastoma Multiforme (Astrocytoma III/IV
74
Metastatic melanoma
75
Cancer Statistics 90 % of cancer deaths are due to metastases 1/3 of breast and colon cancer patients have lymph node metastases at diagnosis Frequency overall: liver, lung, bone #1 endocrine site: adrenal glands
76
Stage of tumors at diagnosis listed by organ/site
77
Pathways of Spread Direct seeding of body cavities: peritoneal #1; also pleural, pericardial, subarachnoid, joint Lymphatic spread: carcinoma> sarcoma; follows natural drainage- breast cancer (Upper-Outer Quadrant) goes 1 st to axillary nodes Hematogenous spread: esp. sarcoma; also carcinoma; usually veins Other: eg. Perineural spread
78
Breast carcinoma with perineural invasion
79
Venous Drainage Portal: liver Caval: lungs Paravertebral plexus: thyroid and prostate carcinomas metastasize to the vertebrae Renal Cell CA: invades renal vein and grows into the vena cava
80
Liver with metastases
81
Sentinel LN Biopsy “The first node in a regional lymphatic basin that receives lymph flow from the primary tumor” Dyes and radiolabeled tracers mark the node Breast, colon and melanomas In breast carcinomas it replaces a total dissection of the axillary lymph nodes and reduces morbidity
82
ANGIOGENESIS Tumors stimulate the growth of host blood vessels Any tumor >2 mm in diameter must have a vascular supply New vessels supply oxygen and nutrients and endothelial cells secrete growth factors
83
Tumor-associated Angiogenic Factors VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) and bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor) are made mostly by tumor cells but also by macrophages and stromal cells
84
ANGIOGENIC SWITCH Angiogenesis is delayed; a minority of the cells become angiogenic p53 inhibits angiogenesis by inducing production of thrombospondin-1 and down-regulating VEGF Angiogenesis inhibitors made by tumor cells: thrombospondin-1; and angiostatin (from plasminogen), endostatin/tumstatin (collagen) All are possible therapeutic targets!
85
Invasion and Metastasis Robbins Figure 7-42 Cells break loose, enter and exit vessels and establish a secondary growth site Rare malignant cells are successful at metastasis; Robbins Figure 7-43
86
Steps in Metastasis Detachment of cells from the primary tumor Invasion of the surrounding tissue Penetration to blood and lymphatic vessels Arrest at target sites Egression (extravasation) Proliferation Establishment of a new blood supply
87
Metastatic Cascade
92
Invasion of the Extracellular Matrix (ECM) Basement membrane Interstitial connective tissue Vessel basement membrane Interstitial connective tissue
93
Tumor Cells in Circulation They clump with each other, RBCs and platelets Adhesion to endothelium (integrins-laminin- proteinases)
94
Metastasis Oncogenes SNAIL and TWIST (breast cancer) E-cadherin is down-regulated and vimentin is up-regulated
95
Tumor Tropism Different endothelial receptors in different organs Different chemokine receptors on the tumor cells- eg. breast cancers express CXCR4 and CCR7 receptors and “matching” chemokines are at high levels in lung and lymph nodes “unfertile soil” like skeletal muscle without receptors
97
Metastases and Tropism Primary Site and Histology Organ Clear cell carcinoma (kidney)Thyroid Cutaneous melanomaSmall bowel/brain Ocular melanomaLiver Adenocarcinomas Ovary (Kruckenberg of the GI tract tumor) Follicular carcinoma, thyroidBone
