Identification of Aneuploid Circulating Tumor Cells in Soft-Tissue Sarcoma Patients: A Pilot Study.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been identified and shown to have prognostic and predictive roles in several types of carcinoma. More recently, aneuploid CTCs have become subject of a growing interest, as aneuploidy is considered a hallmark of cancer often associated with poor prognosis. Here, we aimed to identify for the first time aneuploid CTCs in soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) patients and show supportive in silico evidence on the prognostic role of aneuploidy in mesenchymal cancers. METHODS:In our pilot study, we collected blood from 4 metastatic STS patients and 4 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. After sample processing, cells were cyto-centrifuged onto glass slides and FISH was performed using 5 probes. The in silico analysis was performed using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort of STS patients, using the validated Aneuploidy Score. We divided the patients in two populations (aneuploidy-high, Ane-Hi, and aneuploidy-low, Ane-Lo) using the median value of the Aneuploidy Score as a cutoff. Kaplan-Meier curves associated with log-rank test were used to compare progression-free and overall survival between groups. GraphPad Prism 8.0 (La Jolla, CA, USA) was used for statistical analyses. RESULTS:Aneuploid CTCs were identified in all 4 STS patients and in none of the controls, with a median value of 4 (range 3-6) per 7 mL of blood. Ane-Hi patients showed a significantly worse progression-free and overall survival compared to Ane-Lo patients. The same trend was maintained when analyzing the data based on the different histologies. CONCLUSIONS:We identified for the first time aneuploid CTCs in STS patients using fluorescence in situ hybridization in a surface marker-independent way. We also showed that the Aneuploidy Score has a prognostic value both in terms of progression-free survival and overall survival in STS patients using The Cancer Genome Atlas data, regardless of the histology.
