Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare disease. The genomic profiling tumours according to clinical characteristics and its impact on the prognosis remains unclear. METHODS A pooled analysis of clinical data, genomic profiling and MisMatch Repair (MMR) status from three databases was performed. RESULTS A total of 188 tumour samples were analysed. A predisposing disease was reported in 22.3%, mainly Lynch syndrome and Crohn's disease. The tumours were localized in 80.2% and metastatic in 18.8%. The most frequent mutations were KRAS (42.0%) among them 7/79 are G12C, TP53 (40.4%), APC (19.1%), PIK3CA (18.6%), SMAD4 (12.8%) and ERBB2 (9.6%). Mutation distribution differed according to predisposing disease for TP53, ERBB2, IDH1, FGFR3, FGFR1 and KDR. KRAS and SMAD4 mutations were more frequent in metastatic tumour, whereas ERBB2 mutations were absent in metastatic tumour. For localized tumour, APC mutation was independently associated with a poor overall survival (OS) (p = 0.0254). 31.8% of localized tumours and 11.3% of metastatic tumours were dMMR (29.8% of the entire cohort). A dMMR status was associated with a better OS (HR = 0.61 [0.39-0.96], p = 0.0316). CONCLUSIONS There is a different genomic profile according to the stage and predisposing disease. dMMR and APC mutation in localized tumour predict a better prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinicopathological features and prognosis of primary small bowel adenocarcinoma (PSBA), excluding duodenal cancer, remain undetermined due to its rarity in Japan. METHODS We analyzed 354 patients with 358 PSBAs, between January 2008 and December 2017, at 44 institutions affiliated with the Japanese Society for Cancer of the Colon and Rectum. RESULTS The median age was 67 years (218 males, 61.6%). The average tumor size was 49.9 (7-100) mm. PSBA sites consisted of jejunum (66.2%) and ileum (30.4%). A total of 219 patients (61.9%) underwent diagnostic small bowel endoscopy, including single-balloon endoscopy, double-balloon endoscopy, and capsule endoscopy before treatment. Nineteen patients (5.4%) had Lynch syndrome, and 272 patients (76.8%) had symptoms at the initial diagnosis. The rates for stages 0, I, II, III, and IV were 5.4%, 2.5%, 27.1%, 26.0%, and 35.6%, respectively. The 5-year overall survival rates at each stage were 92.3%, 60.0%, 75.9%, 61.4%, and 25.5%, respectively, and the 5-year disease-specific survival (DSS) rates were 100%, 75.0%, 84.1%, 59.3%, and 25.6%, respectively. Patients with the PSBA located in the jejunum, with symptoms at the initial diagnosis or advanced clinical stage had a worse prognosis. However, multivariate analysis using Cox-hazard model revealed that clinical stage was the only significant predictor of DSS for patients with PSBA. CONCLUSIONS Of the patients with PSBA, 76.8% had symptoms at the initial diagnosis, which were often detected at an advanced stage. Detection during the early stages of PSBA is important to ensure a good prognosis.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare tumor entity with a relatively poor prognosis. Diagnosis and management of SBA are still challenging despite recent advancement of diagnostic methods and publication of guidelines. This study aimed to analyze and visualize the trending of SBA research in the past 22 years in the 21st century through bibliometric analysis. Our study collected 1270 publication records of SBA from 2000 Jan 1st to 2022 December 31 from Web of Science and used VOSviewer and CiteSpace to analyze countries, institutions, journals, authors, references and keywords to present the latest trends in SBA research. The USA was the most productive country in terms of the total number of publications (n = 418). The Mayo Clinic (n = 22) and University of Texas MD Cancer Center (n = 22) were the institutions with top publications. The "World Journal Of Gastroenterology" (n = 30) had the largest publications. Overman Michael J (n = 17) was the most active and prolific author. The "small bowel adenocarcinoma" was the most frequent keyword. Our bibliometric analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the trends and gaps in the research of SBA. Despite the challenges faced, researchers from USA, Japan and China have made significant contributions to the field of SBA research, and further research is necessary to develop evidence-based guidelines, and advance the understanding and management of SBA.

Incidence, clinical management and prognosis of patients with small intestinal adenocarcinomas from 1999 through 2019: A nationwide Dutch cohort study. Eur J Cancer 2024; 199:113529. [PMID: 38232410 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejca.2024.113529] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Small intestinal adenocarcinomas (SIAs) are rare. Hence, randomized controlled trials are lacking and understanding of the disease features is limited. This nationwide cohort investigates incidence, treatment and prognosis of SIA patients, to improve disease outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data of 2697 SIA patients diagnosed from January 1999 through December 2019 were retrieved from the Netherlands Cancer Registry and Pathology Archive. Incidence was calculated using the revised European Standardized Rate. The influence of patient and tumor characteristics on overall survival (OS) was studied using survival analyses. RESULTS The age-standardized incidence rate almost doubled from 0.58 to 1.06 per 100,000 person-years, exclusively caused by an increase in duodenal adenocarcinomas. OS did not improve over time. Independent factors for a better OS were a younger age, jejunal tumors, Lynch syndrome and systemic therapy. Only 13.8% of resected patients was treated with adjuvant chemotherapy, which improved OS compared to surgery alone in stage III disease (HR 0.47 (0.35-0.61)), but not in the limited group of deficient mismatch repair (MMR) patients (n = 53, HR 0.93 (0.25-3.47)). In the first-line setting, CAPOX was associated with improved OS compared to FOLFOX (HR 0.51 (0.36-0.72)). For oligometastatic patients, a metastasectomy significantly improved OS (HR 0.54 (0.36-0.80)). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of SIAs almost doubled in the past 20 years, with no improvement in OS. This retrospective non-randomized study suggests the use of adjuvant chemotherapy for stage III disease and first-line CAPOX for metastatic patients. For selected oligometastatic patients, a metastasectomy may be considered. MMR-status testing could aid in clinical decision-making.

Abstract
AIMS Patients with Crohn's disease (CrD) have an elevated risk for the development of small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs). Actionable isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations have been reported to be more frequent in CrD-SBAs than in sporadic SBAs. The present study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological and immunophenotypical features, as well as methylation profiles, of IDH1-mutated CrD-SBAs. METHODS AND RESULTS An international multicentre series of surgically resected CrD-SBAs was tested for IDH1 mutation. Clinicopathological features, immunophenotypical marker expression and O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1) methylation were compared between IDH1-mutated and IDH1 wild-type CrD-SBAs. Ten (20%) of the 49 CrD-SBAs examined harboured an IDH1 mutation and all the mutated cancers harboured the R132C variant. Compared to IDH1 wild-type cases, IDH1-mutated CrD-SBAs showed significantly lower rates of cytokeratin 7 expression (P = 0.005) and higher rates of p53 overexpression (P = 0.012) and MGMT methylation (P = 0.012). All three dysplastic growths associated with IDH1-mutated SBAs harboured the same IDH1 variant (R132C) of the corresponding invasive cancer, and all were of non-conventional subtype (two serrated dysplastic lesions and one goblet cell-deficient dysplasia). In particular, non-conventional serrated dysplasia was significantly associated with IDH1-mutated CrD-SBAs (P = 0.029). No significant cancer-specific survival difference between IDH1-mutated CrD-SBA patients and IDH1 wild-type CrD-SBA patients was found (hazard ratio = 0.55, 95% confidence interval = 0.16-1.89; P = 0.313). CONCLUSIONS IDH1-mutated CrD-SBAs, which represent approximately one-fifth of total cases, are characterised by distinctive immunophenotypical features and methylation profiles, with potential therapeutic implications. Moreover, IDH1-mutated non-conventional, serrated dysplasia is likely to represent a precursor lesion to such CrD-SBAs.

Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:262. [PMID: 38254753 PMCID: PMC10813471 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16020262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Small bowel tumors (SBT) are relatively rare, but have had a steadily increasing incidence in the last few decades. Small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) and device-assisted enteroscopy are the main endoscopic techniques for the study of the small bowel, the latter additionally providing sampling and therapeutic options, and hence acting complementary to SBCE in the diagnostic work-up. Although a single diagnostic modality is often insufficient in the setting of SBTs, SBCE is a fundamental tool to drive further management towards a definitive diagnosis. The aim of this paper is to provide a concise narrative review of the role of SBCE in the diagnosis and management of SBTs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early-onset small bowel adenocarcinoma (EO-SBA) is a rare and poorly characterized entity. METHODS This retrospective study conducted on an international multicenter cohort of 208 patients with SBA aimed at comparing clinicopathologic features of EO-SBA (age younger than 50 years at SBA diagnosis) and late-onset SBA (age 50 years or older at SBA diagnosis). RESULTS The presence of predisposing pathologic conditions was significantly more common in the EO-SBA group compared with that in the late-onset SBA group ( P = 0.003, Fisher exact test; relative risk: 1.50, 95% confidence interval: 1.20-1.86). This difference is mainly due to the significantly higher prevalence of celiac disease among patients with EO-SBA. DISCUSSION EO-SBA is strongly associated with predisposing conditions, particularly with celiac disease, highlighting the importance of routine screening for celiac disease in patients with EO-SBA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare cancer with an aggressive behavior. No study has specifically addressed the putative prognostic role of mismatch repair status in stage III SBAs. AIMS We aimed to investigate whether mismatch repair deficiency is associated with cancer-specific survival in a Western cohort of patients with stage III SBAs. METHODS In this retrospective multicentric international cohort study, we enrolled 70 patients who underwent surgically resection for stage III SBAs and we analyzed the frequency of mismatch repair deficiency, tested by immunohistochemistry for mismatch repair proteins and by polymerase chain reaction for microsatellite instability, and its association with cancer-specific survival and other clinic-pathologic factors. RESULTS We found sixteen (23%) patients with mismatch repair deficient adenocarcinoma, without discordance between immunohistochemical and polymerase chain reaction for microsatellite instability analyses. Mismatch repair deficiency proved to be associated with a better outcome both at univariable analysis (hazard ratio: 0.28, 95% confidence interval: 0.08-0.91, p: 0.035) and in bivariable models adjusted for patient age or gender, tumor site, pT4 stage, tumor budding, and perineural invasion. CONCLUSION This study highlights the importance of testing mismatch repair status to improve prognostic stratification in stage III SBAs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare cancer, and the role of adjuvant chemotherapy for localized disease is still debated. METHODS This retrospective multicenter study included all consecutive patients who underwent curative surgical resection for localized small bowel adenocarcinoma between 1996 and 2019 from 3 French cohort studies. Prognostic and predictive factors of adjuvant chemotherapy efficacy were analyzed for disease-free survival and overall survival. The inverse probability of treatment weighting method was applied in the Cox regression model using the propensity score derived from multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS A total of 354 patients were included: median age, 63.5 years; duodenum location, 53.5%; and tumor stage I, II, and III in 31 (8.7%), 144 (40.7%), and 179 (50.6%) patients, respectively. The adjuvant chemotherapy was administered in 0 (0%), 66 (48.5%), and 143 (80.3%) patients with stage I, II, and III, respectively (P < .0001). In the subgroup analysis by inverse probability of treatment weighting method, a statistically significant disease-free survival and overall survival benefit in favor of adjuvant chemotherapy was observed in high-risk stage II (T4 and/or <8 lymph nodes examined) and III (T4 and/or N2) but not for low-risk stage II (T3 and ≥8 lymph nodes examined) and III (T1-3/N1) tumors (Pinteraction < .05). Furthermore, tumor location in jejunum and ileum was also a statistically significant predictive factor of response to adjuvant chemotherapy in stage II and III tumors (Pinteraction < .05). CONCLUSION In localized small bowel adenocarcinoma, adjuvant chemotherapy seems to provide a statistically significant survival benefit for high-risk stage II and III tumors and for jejunum and ileum tumor locations.

The Prognostic Utility of the Metastatic Lymph Node Ratio and the Number of Regional Lymph Nodes Removed from Patients with Small Bowel Adenocarcinomas. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2023; 59:1472. [PMID: 37629761 PMCID: PMC10456871 DOI: 10.3390/medicina59081472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2023] [Revised: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: Small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs) are rare tumors of the gastrointestinal system. Lymph node metastasis in patients with curatively resected SBAs is associated with poor prognosis. In this study, we determined the prognostic utility of the number of removed lymph nodes and the metastatic lymph node ratio (the N ratio). Materials and Methods: The data of 97 patients who underwent curative SBA resection in nine hospitals of Turkey were retrospectively evaluated. Univariate and multivariate analyses of potentially prognostic factors including the N ratio and the numbers of regional lymph nodes removed were evaluated. Results: Univariate analysis showed that perineural and vascular invasion, metastatic lymph nodes, advanced TNM stage, and a high N ratio were significant predictors of poor survival. Multivariate analysis revealed that the N ratio was a significant independent predictor of disease-specific survival (DSS). The group with the lowest N ratio exhibited the longest disease-free survival (DFS) and DSS; these decreased significantly as the N ratio increased (both, p < 0.001). There was no significant difference in either DFS or DSS between groups with low and high numbers of dissected lymph nodes (i.e., <13 and ≥13) (both, p = 0.075). Conclusions: We found that the N ratio was independently prognostic of DSS in patients with radically resected SBAs. The N ratio is a convenient and accurate measure of the severity of lymph node metastasis.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a prevalent malignancy that affects a large percentage of the global population. The conventional treatments for CRC have a number of limitations. Nanoparticles have emerged as a promising cancer treatment method due to their ability to directly target cancer cells and regulate drug release, thereby enhancing therapeutic efficacy and minimizing side effects. This compilation examines the use of nanoparticles as drug delivery systems for CRC treatment. Different nanomaterials can be used to administer anticancer drugs, including polymeric nanoparticles, gold nanoparticles, liposomes, and solid lipid nanoparticles. In addition, we discuss recent developments in nanoparticle preparation techniques, such as solvent evaporation, salting-out, ion gelation, and nanoprecipitation. These methods have demonstrated high efficacy in penetrating epithelial cells, a prerequisite for effective drug delivery. This article focuses on the various targeting mechanisms utilized by CRC-targeted nanoparticles and their recent advancements in this field. In addition, the review offers descriptive information regarding numerous nano-preparative procedures for colorectal cancer treatments. We also discuss the outlook for innovative therapeutic techniques in the management of CRC, including the potential application of nanoparticles for targeted drug delivery. The review concludes with a discussion of current nanotechnology patents and clinical studies used to target and diagnose CRC. The results of this investigation suggest that nanoparticles have great potential as a method of drug delivery for the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA), neuroendocrine tumors (NET) and gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are neoplastic lesions of the small bowel while small bowel adenomas are precursors of SBA. AIM To examine mortality in patients diagnosed with SBA, small bowel adenomas, NET and GIST. METHODS We performed a population-based matched cohort study encompassing all individuals with SBA (n = 2289), adenomas (n = 3700), NET (n = 1884) and GIST (n = 509) in the small bowel diagnosed at any of Sweden's 28 pathology departments between 2000 and 2016 (the "ESPRESSO study"). Each case was matched by sex, age, calendar year and county of residence to up to 5 comparators from the general population. Through Cox regression we estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) for death and cause-specific death adjusting for education. RESULTS During follow-up until December 31, 2017, 1836 (80%) deaths occurred in SBA patients, 1615 (44%) in adenoma, 866 (46%) in NET and 162 (32%) in GIST patients. This corresponded to incidence rates of 295, 74, 80 and 62/1000 person-years respectively and adjusted HRs of 7.60 (95%CI=6.95-8.31), 2.21 (2.07-2.36), 2.74 (2.50-3.01) and 2.33 (1.90-2.87). Adjustment for education had a substantial impact on the HR for death in SBA but not for other neoplasias. The predominant cause of excess death was cancer in all groups. CONCLUSION This study confirms earlier findings of increased death rates in patients with SBA and NET in a modern study population. We also demonstrate a more than 2-fold increased risk of death in both GIST and the SBA precursor adenoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Intrabdominal adhesions and intestinal hernias are the commonest cause of small bowel obstruction. Small bowel diseases, which cause small bowel obstruction, are rarer and often poses a challenge to gastroenterologists to diagnose and treat. In this review, small bowel diseases, which predispose to small bowel obstruction, are focused on, and their challenges in diagnosis and treatment. RECENT FINDINGS Diagnosis of causes of partial small bowel obstruction is improved with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) enterography. In fibrostenotic Crohn's strictures and NSAID diaphragm disease, endoscopic balloon dilatation can delay the need for surgery if the lesion is short and accessible; however, many may still inevitably require surgery. Biologic therapy may reduce the need for surgery in symptomatic small bowel Crohn's disease wherein the strictures are predominantly inflammatory. In chronic radiation enteropathy, only refractory small bowel obstruction and those with nutritional difficulties warrant surgery. SUMMARY Small bowel diseases causing bowel obstruction are often challenging to diagnose and require numerous investigations over a period of time, which often culminate with surgery. Use of biologics and endoscopic balloon dilatation can help to delay and prevent surgery in some instances.

Abstract
Crohn’s disease (CD) is associated with an increased risk of small bowel neoplasia (SBN). We aimed to assess preoperative predictors of SBN in CD patients. We conducted a retrospective case-control study including CD patients who underwent surgery: cases were diagnosed with SBN on histopathological analysis and controls had no neoplasia. Preoperative cross-sectional imaging was reviewed by a panel of blinded expert radiologists. Fifty cases were matched to one hundred and fifty consecutive controls. In multivariable analysis, predictors of SBN were age ≥ 50 years (OR = 28, 95% CI = 5.05–206), median CD duration ≥ 17.5 years (OR = 4.25, 95% CI = 1.33–14.3), and surgery for stricture (OR = 5.84, 95% CI = 1.27–35.4). The predictors of small bowel adenocarcinoma were age ≥ 50 years (OR = 5.14, 95% CI = 2.12–12.7), CD duration ≥ 15 years (OR = 5.65, 95% CI = 2.33–14.3), and digestive wall thickening > 8 mm (OR = 3.79, 95% CI = 1.45–11.3). A predictive score based on the aforementioned factors was constructed. Almost 73.7% of patients with a high score had SBA. Old age, long small bowel CD duration, and stricture predicted the presence of SBN, particularly adenocarcinoma when patients have digestive wall thickening > 8 mm on preoperative imaging.

Abstract
Primary intestinal malignancies account for only 1%-3% of all malignant gastrointestinal tumors. Adenocarcinomas are uncommonly located in the ileum. Ileal adenocarcinoma (IA) is rare and difficult to diagnose because of its location. IA is common in older men and rare in young pregnant women. A 23-year-old pregnant woman was hospitalized several times for repeated vomiting and abdominal pain. Her symptoms were relieved after symptomatic treatment. She exhibited no typical manifestations of intestinal obstruction, such as abdominal distension, difficulty passing gas and defecation. Unfortunately, she was misdiagnosed with acute gastroenteritis. On the second day after delivery, the patient stopped passing gas and computed tomography (CT) revealed an intestinal obstruction. She was treated as paralytic ileus. However, in view of failed conservative management, she was decided for an exploratory laparotomy. A malignant ileal tumor 5cm from the ileocecal valve was found incidentally and was surgically excised accompanied with End-to-side anastomosis of ileal and transverse colon. The operation lasted 195 minutes. Pathological examination revealed an IA. Pregnant woman who experience symptoms of intestinal obstruction should be alert to the possibility of malignancy in the small intestine. IA is an insidious tumor in pregnant women. An "IA triad" can be defined as refractory vomiting, vague abdominal pain, and weight loss (or inadequate weight gain in pregnant women). Pregnant women with an IA triad should undergo investigation with endoscopy or, if necessary, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on outcomes of microsatellite instable and/or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR/MSI) digestive non-colorectal tumors are limited. AIMS To evaluate overall survival (OS) of patients with dMMR/MSI digestive non-colorectal tumor. METHODS All consecutive patients with a dMMR/MSI digestive non-colorectal tumor were included in this French retrospective multicenter study. RESULTS One hundred and sixteen patients were included with a mean age of 63.6 years and 32.6% with a Lynch syndrome. Most tumors were oesophago-gastric (54.3%) or small bowel (32.8%) adenocarcinomas and at a localized stage at diagnosis (86.7%). In patients with localized tumors and R0 resection, median OS was 134.0 ± 64.2 months. Median disease-free survival (DFS) was 100.3 ± 65.7 months. Considering oesophago-gastric tumors, median DFS was improved when chemotherapy was added to surgery (not reached versus 22.8 ± 10.0 months, p = 0.03). In patients with advanced tumors treated by chemotherapy, median OS was 14.2 ± 1.9 months and median progression-free survival was 7.4 ± 1.6 months. CONCLUSION dMMR/MSI digestive non-colorectal tumors are mostly diagnosed at a non-metastatic stage with a good prognosis. Advanced dMMR/MSI digestive non-colorectal tumors have a poor prognosis with standard chemotherapy.

Risk factors for small intestinal adenocarcinomas that are common in the proximal small intestine. World J Gastroenterol 2022; 28:5658-5665. [PMID: 36338888 PMCID: PMC9627424 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v28.i39.5658] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 09/18/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The frequency of primary small intestinal adenocarcinoma is increasing but is still low. Its frequency is approximately 3% of that of colorectal adenocarcinoma. Considering that the small intestine occupies 90% of the surface area of the gastrointestinal tract, small intestinal adenocarcinoma is very rare. The main site of small intestinal adenocarcinoma is the proximal small intestine. Based on this characteristic, dietary animal proteins/lipids and bile concentrations are implicated and reported to be involved in carcinogenesis. Since most nutrients are absorbed in the proximal small intestine, the effect of absorbable intestinal content is a suitable explanation for why small intestinal adenocarcinoma is more common in the proximal small intestine. The proportion of aerobic bacteria is high in the proximal small intestine, but the absolute number of bacteria is low. In addition, the length and density of villi are greater in the proximal small intestine. However, the involvement of villi is considered to be low because the number of small intestinal adenocarcinomas is much smaller than that of colorectal adenocarcinomas. On the other hand, the reason for the low incidence of small intestinal adenocarcinoma in the distal small intestine may be that immune organs reside there. Genetic and disease factors increase the likelihood of small intestinal adenocarcinoma. In carcinogenesis experiments in which the positions of the small and large intestines were exchanged, tumors still occurred in the large intestinal mucosa more often. In other words, the influence of the intestinal contents is small, and there is a large difference in epithelial properties between the small intestine and the large intestine. In conclusion, small intestinal adenocarcinoma is rare compared to large intestinal adenocarcinoma due to the nature of the epithelium. It is reasonable to assume that diet is a trigger for small intestinal adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a gastrointestinal malignancy with low incidence but poor prognosis, and its pathogenesis is still unclear. This study aimed to explore potential disease-causing biomarkers of SBA. The gene expression datasets of SBA and normal samples were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. First, differential gene expression analysis and weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) were performed. Common genes (CGs) were obtained by intersection of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and optimal modal genes of WGCNA. Subsequently, a protein‒protein interaction network was established to screen hub genes, and target genes were obtained by Lasso regression analysis of hub genes. An SBA risk prediction model was established based on target genes. The prediction accuracy of the model was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). The levels of immune cell infiltration and activation of immune pathways were compared between SBA and normal samples using the "ggpubr" and "reshape2" packages. A total of 1058 DEGs were identified. WGCNA showed that the signature gene in the brown module was significantly associated with SBA (p = 7E−17), and 469 CGs were obtained. Four target genes (APOA4, APOB, COL1A2, FN1) were identified and showed excellent prediction of SBA risk (AUC = 0.965). In addition, active dendritic cells and macrophages showed higher infiltration levels in SBA. Meanwhile, the APC_co_stimulation pathway and parainflammation pathway were strongly active in SBA. Four target genes (APOA4, APOB, COL1A2, FN1) may be involved in the pathogenesis of small bowel adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs) are rare and there is little comprehensive data on SBA genomic alterations for Asian patients. This study aimed to profile genomic alterations of SBA in Japanese patients using targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS). METHODS We examined 22 surgical resections from patients with primary SBA. SBA genomic alterations were analyzed by NGS. Mismatch repair (MMR) status was determined by immunohistochemical analysis. Mucin phenotypes were classified as gastric (G), intestinal (I), gastrointestinal (GI), and null (N) types on MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6, and CD10 immunostaining. RESULTS The most common genomic alterations found in SBA tumors were TP53 (n = 16), followed by KRAS (n = 6), APC (n = 5), PIK3CA (n = 4), CTNNB1 (n = 3), KIT (n = 2), BRAF (n = 2), CDKN2A (n = 2), and PTEN (n = 2). Deficient MMR tumors were observed in 6 out of 22 patients. Tumor mucin phenotypes included 2 in G-type, 12 in I-type, 3 in GI-type, and 5 in N-type. APC and CTNNB1 mutations were not found in G-type and GI-type tumors. KRAS mutations were found in all tumor types except for G-type tumors. TP53 mutations were found in all tumor types. Although no single gene mutation was associated with overall survival (OS), we found that KRAS mutations were associated with significant worse OS in patients with proficient MMR tumors. CONCLUSIONS SBA genomic alterations in Japanese patients do not differ significantly from those reports in Western countries. Tumor localization, mucin phenotype, and MMR status all appear to impact SBA gene mutations.

Abstract
Small bowel cancers are rare diseases whose prognosis is poorer than that of colon cancers. Due to disease rarity, there is little data on small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) treatment, and most recommendations come from expert agreements or analogies to the management of colon cancer. Although relatively high rates of local recurrence are observed for duodenal malignancies, distant metastatic relapse remains common and requires adjuvant systemic therapy. Given the similarities between SBA and colorectal cancer, radiotherapy and chemotherapy strategies used for the latter disease are frequently pursued for the former disease, specifically for tumors located in the duodenum. However, no previous randomized study has evaluated the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy on the overall survival of SBA patients. Most previous studies on treatment outcomes and prognostic factors in this context were based on large international databases, such as the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results or the National Cancer Database. Studies are required to establish and validate prognostic and predictive markers relevant in this context to inform the use of (neo) adjuvant treatment. Among those, deficient mismatch repair tumors represent 20% of SBAs, but their impact on chemosensitivity remains unknown. Herein, we summarize the current evidence on the management of localized SBA, including future perspectives.

Abstract
Background This study aims to explore a deep learning (DL) algorithm for developing a prognostic model and perform survival analyses in SBT patients. Methods The demographic and clinical features of patients with SBTs were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database. We randomly split the samples into the training set and the validation set at 7:3. Cox proportional hazards (Cox-PH) analysis and the DeepSurv algorithm were used to develop models. The performance of the Cox-PH and DeepSurv models was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves, calibration curves, C-statistics and decision-curve analysis (DCA). A Kaplan−Meier (K−M) survival analysis was performed for further explanation on prognostic effect of the Cox-PH model. Results The multivariate analysis demonstrated that seven variables were associated with cancer-specific survival (CSS) (all p < 0.05). The DeepSurv model showed better performance than the Cox-PH model (C-index: 0.871 vs. 0.866). The calibration curves and DCA revealed that the two models had good discrimination and calibration. Moreover, patients with ileac malignancy and N2 stage disease were not responding to surgery according to the K−M analysis. Conclusions This study reported a DeepSurv model that performed well in CSS in SBT patients. It might offer insights into future research to explore more DL algorithms in cohort studies.

Abstract
Simple Summary Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare tumor. Diagnosis is often obtained at an advanced stage and prognosis remains poor. The aim of this review is to report the recent epidemiological and risk factor data related to small bowel adenocarcinoma. New diagnostic tools are also described in this review. Abstract Adenocarcinomas of the small intestine are rare tumors but their incidence is increasing. There is a slight male predominance. The median age at diagnosis is the 6th decade. The most frequent primary location is the duodenum. There is no clearly identified environmental risk factor, but adenocarcinomas of the small intestine are associated in almost 20% of cases with predisposing diseases (Crohn’s disease, Lynch syndrome, familial adenomatous polyposis, Peutz–Jeghers syndrome and celiac disease).

Abstract
We aimed to explore factors associated with prognosis in patients with metastatic small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) as well as to develop and validate nomograms to predict overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Relevant information of patients diagnosed between 2004 and 2016 was extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Nomograms for predicting 1- and 3-year OS and CSS were established with potential risk factors screened from multivariate cox regression analysis. The discrimination and accuracy of the nomograms were assessed by concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, and the area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). In total, 373 SBA patients with M1 category were enrolled. Multivariate analysis revealed that age, size and grade of primary tumor, primary tumor surgery, and chemotherapy were significant variables associated with OS and CSS. The C-index values of the nomogram for OS were 0.715 and 0.687 in the training and validation cohorts, respectively. For CSS, it was 0.711 and 0.690, respectively. Through AUC, decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration plots, the nomograms displayed satisfactory prognostic predicted ability and clinical application both in the OS and CSS. Our models could be served as a reliable tool for prognostic evaluation of patients with metastatic SBA, which are favorable in facilitating individualized survival predictions and clinical decision-making.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is diagnosed at an advanced (unresectable or metastatic) tumor stage in approximately one-third of cases. This is partly due to the non-specific symptomatology and limitations in endoscopic and radiologic detection methods. In this context, the prognosis remains poor and systemic chemotherapy appears to benefit patients when compared to best supportive care alone, despite the absence of randomized controlled trials. The results of a recent large prospective cohort (ARCAD-NADEGE) reported that the absence of chemotherapy was a predictive factor for a lower overall survival (OS) even though poor differentiation and SBA associated with Crohn's disease correlate with poor prognosis. In retrospective series, the median OS ranges from approximately 9 to 18 months with current treatment approaches. A combination of a fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin (FOLFOX or CAPOX) appears to be the most utilized and effective first-line chemotherapy regimen. Other front-line alternatives are the combination of 5-FU and cisplatin or fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan (FOLFIRI). In second-line, FOLFIRI is an effective option after progression on platinum-based therapy. Taxane-based therapy appears to be an alternative option, but further evaluation in larger series is needed. To a limited extent, the role of surgical resection for metastatic disease appears to be a valid option, though this approach has not been evaluated in prospective clinical studies. Due to the rareness of the disease, inclusion in clinical trials should be prioritized, and there is hope that targeted therapies and immunotherapy may enter the therapeutic arsenal for these patients.

Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to develop a predictive model for patients with duodenal carcinoma. Methods: Duodenal carcinoma patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database (2010-2015) and the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University (2010-2021) were enrolled. A nomogram was constructed according to least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis, the Akaike information criterion approach and Cox regression analysis. Results: Five independent prognostic factors were significantly associated with the prognosis of the duodenal carcinoma patients. A nomogram was constructed with a C-index in the training and validation cohorts of 0.671 (95% CI: 0.578-0.716) and 0.662 (95% CI: 0.529-0.773), respectively. Conclusion: The established nomogram model provided visualization of the risk of each prognostic factor.

Abstract
Duodenal polyps are found in 0.1 % to 0.8 % of all upper endoscopies. Duodenal adenomas account for 10 % to 20 % of these lesions. They can be sporadic or occur in the setting of a hereditary predisposition syndrome, mainly familial adenomatous polyposis. Endoscopy is the cornerstone of management of duodenal adenomas, allowing for diagnosis and treatment, primarily by endoscopic mucosal resection. The endoscopic treatment of duodenal adenomas has a high morbidity, reaching 15 % in a prospective study, consisting of bleeding and perforations, and should therefore be performed in expert centers. The local recurrence rate ranges from 9 % to 37 %, and is maximal for piecemeal resections of lesions > 20 mm. Surgical resection of the duodenum is flawed with major morbidity and considered a rescue procedure in cases of endoscopic treatment failures or severe endoscopic complications such as duodenal perforations. In this paper, we review the existing evidence on endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of non-ampullary duodenal adenomas.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare but increasing disease. It poses both a diagnostic and therapeutic challange. Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare cause of small bowel obstruction. We present the case of a patient admitted to our emergency department for a bowel obstruction due to a mass of the jejunum and whose anatomopathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma. PATIENT AND METHOD It is a 62-year-old woman with unparticular history, admitted to the emergency of visceral surgery of Ibn Rochd University Hospital for subocclusive syndrome evolving for one year, with early postprandial vomiting becoming stenosing two months ago. The abdominal CT scan showed thickening jejunal wall of 46 mm with upstream distension. She underwent a segmental bowel resection of 50 cm of small bowel with 3 cm stenotic mass located at 40 cm from the duodenojejunal angle. The pathophysiology revealed an invasive liberkhunian adenocarcinoma. The postoperative follow-up was simple, feeding allowed at D4 with discharge allowed at D6 and functional improvement at the time of the control performed three months after the intervention. DISCUSSION Small bowel adenocarcinoma is rare and represents only 1-3% of all gastrointestinal cancers. The incidence of SBA is 24 to 66 times lower than that of colorectal cancer (CRC). Due to its non-specific clinical manifestation and less accessible location, SBA is diagnosed at an advanced stage, and often at specimen analysis. The treatment is resection and the overall survival is increased when diagnostic is early made. CONCLUSION Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare but increasing cause of gastrointestinal malignancy, being both a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. In front of the occlusive syndrome of small bowel appearance, adenocarcinoma must be ruled out.

Abstract
PURPOSE Small intestinal cancers have a non-specific clinical presentation and hence a delayed diagnosis. The prevalence of small intestinal cancers is low, and there are no cost-effective methods of screening. This study aimed to identify clinical characteristics of duodenal and jejunal adenocarcinomas that can assist in the early detection and diagnosis of disease. METHODS Duodenal adenocarcinoma and jejunal adenocarcinoma in Explorys database (1999-2019) were compared using odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals. Data on demographic characteristics, risk factors, clinical features, and treatment were collected. RESULTS Out of a total of 8100 patients with a diagnosis of primary adenocarcinoma of the small intestine, 5110 are primary adenocarcinoma of duodenum (63%), and 600 are primary adenocarcinoma of jejunum (7.4%). Patients with jejunal adenocarcinoma when compared with patients with duodenal adenocarcinoma are more obese (OR, 1.36) and have a significantly higher prevalence of malignant neoplasm of colon (OR, 3.07), Crohn's disease (OR, 4.42), and celiac disease (OR, 2.48). Jejunal adenocarcinoma patients presented more frequently with intestinal obstruction (OR, 1.99), whereas duodenal adenocarcinoma patients more commonly presented with iron deficiency anemia (OR, 0.16). Patients with jejunal adenocarcinoma are less likely to undergo therapy with anti-neoplastic agents when compared with duodenal adenocarcinoma (OR, 0.81). There are no differences in patients undergoing surgical intervention or a combination of surgical intervention and antineoplastic therapy. CONCLUSIONS Jejunal adenocarcinoma is more commonly associated with colorectal cancer, celiac disease, and Crohn's disease. They also had lower odds of requiring chemotherapeutic agents.

Abstract
Lynch syndrome (LS) is a common form of inherited cancer susceptibility, which predisposes to colorectal cancer (CRC) along with a wide array of other extracolonic malignancies, including other gastrointestinal cancers, cancers of the gynecologic and genitourinary tracts, and other organ sites. Recent data have provided novel insights into patient-specific factors that can help clinicians understand an individual LS carrier's risk of extracolonic cancers, including sex, specific LS gene, age, family history of cancer, and other factors. This summary seeks to provide an update on extracolonic cancer risks in LS and provide recommendations for surveillance and risk reduction.

Abstract
Background: Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare gastrointestinal tumor with high malignancy. The aim of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the distant metastasis pattern and establish nomograms predicting survival for SBA. Methods: From 2010 to 2015, patients diagnosed with SBA were identified based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was applied to compare survival differences between metastasis patterns. Then, univariate and multivariate cox analyses were applied to screened out independent prognostic factors of cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS), and identify the risk factors for metastasis of SBA. To assess the discrimination and calibration of nomograms, the concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC), and decision curve analysis (DCA) were calculated. Results: Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that metastasis patterns were significantly correlated with CSS (p < 0.001) and OS (p < 0.001). Then, the metastasis pattern was showed to be an independent prognostic factor of OS and CSS in patients with SBA, as well as age, grade, T stage, N stage, surgery, retrieval of regional lymph nodes, and chemotherapy. Combining these factors, we constructed prognostic nomograms, which suggested that the metastasis pattern made the greatest contribution to the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for OS and CSS had a C-index of 0.787 and 0.793, respectively. Calibration curves showed an excellent agreement between probability and actual observation in the training and validation cohort. Decision curve analysis also exhibited its clinical value with an improved net benefit. In addition, the models we constructed had better prognostic accuracy and clinical utility than traditional TNM staging based on C-index and ROC. Further, Cox regression analysis showed that old age, poor differentiation, N2, and not receiving chemotherapy were the risk factors for prognosis in patients with metastatic SBA. Conclusion: As an independent prognostic factor, the metastasis pattern exhibited the greatest predictive effect on OS and CSS for patients with SBA. Adjuvant chemotherapy had a positive effect on the survival of patients with SBA. Nomograms for predicting 3-and 5-year OS and CSS of patients with SBA were constructed, which could identify patients with higher risk and might be superior in predicting the survival of patients with SBA than TNM staging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel cancers are rare gastrointestinal malignancies and tumor location impact on outcomes is unclear. MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective review was performed on stage I to IV small bowel cancer cases from 2000 to 2017 in British Columbia, Canada. Baseline patient characteristics, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated by tumor location and systemic therapy use patterns were summarized. RESULTS Of 340 patients included, primary tumor distribution was: duodenum (51.2%), ileum (19.1%), jejunum (18.5%), and unspecified (11.2%). Median DFS for stage I to III disease was 37.7, 49.1, and 26.7 months for duodenal, jejunal, and ileal tumors (P = .018). Median OS was 9.6, 35.2, and 20.1 months for duodenal, jejunal, and ileal tumors (P < .0001). Compared to duodenal primaries, both jejunal and ileal tumors were associated with significantly improved OS (HR 0.43, P < .001 for jejunal; HR 0.71, P = .035 for ileal). Adjuvant therapy was given to 21.6% of stage II and 50.6% of stage III cancers. Among patients with metastatic disease, median OS was 4.2, 11.4, and 6.9 months for duodenal, jejunal, and ileal tumors (P = .0019). Jejunal tumors had the best prognosis (HR 0.48, P = .001 vs. duodenum). CONCLUSION Survival differences exist when small bowel cancers were assessed by tumor location, and jejunal tumors portended better prognosis overall.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CeD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy precipitated by ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Considering that CeD affects approximately 1% of the Western population, it may be considered a global health problem. In the large majority of cases, CeD has a benign course, characterized by the complete resolution of symptoms and a normal life expectancy after the beginning of a gluten-free-diet (GFD); however, an increased risk of developing malignancies, such as lymphomas and small bowel carcinoma (SBC), has been reported. In particular, enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), a peculiar type of T-cell lymphoma, is characteristically associated with CeD. Moreover, the possible association between CeD and several other malignancies has been also investigated in a considerable number of studies. In this paper, we aim to provide a comprehensive review of the current knowledge about the associations between CeD and cancer, focusing in particular on EATL and SBC, two rare but aggressive malignancies.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare disease and presents with intermittent abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea, vomiting, and gastrointestinal bleeding. In cases with delayed diagnosis, intestinal obstruction or bowel perforation can also be observed. In our case, the patient presented with ileus after an operation that was diagnosed with SBA. After six cycles of chemotherapy, the patient went into complete remission.

Abstract
The presence of KRAS mutation enhances the stem cell features of colorectal carcinoma cells containing mutant adenomatous polyposis coli (APC). However, their potential role in small intestinal adenocarcinoma remains elusive. Here, we aimed to investigate the clinical significance of cancer stem cell markers expression in the context of small intestinal adenocarcinoma with the KRAS genotype. SOX2, NANOG, and OCT4 expression were assessed by immunohistochemistry and digital image analysis, and their potential association with KRAS was further examined in 185 Korean patients with small intestinal adenocarcinomas, which were collected from 22 institutions in South Korea. Positive expression of SOX2, NANOG, and OCT4 was detected in 65 (35.1%), 94 (50.8%), and 82 (44.3%) of patients, respectively. Patients with high SOX2 (SOX2+) expression displayed worse overall survival compared to those with low SOX2 (SOX2-) expression (P < 0.001). Patients with SOX2+/mutant KRAS (KRASMT) (11.1 months) had significantly shorter overall survival than those with SOX2-/KRASWT (53.6 months) (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, SOX2+, distal location, high pT and pN categories, microsatellite stable, and absence of predisposing diseases were independent prognostic factors for worse overall survival. These results suggest that SOX2 expression has the potential to predict clinical outcomes in patients with small intestinal adenocarcinomas.

Metastatic small bowel adenocarcinoma: role of metastasectomy and systemic chemotherapy. ESMO Open 2021; 6:100132. [PMID: 33940348 PMCID: PMC8111574 DOI: 10.1016/j.esmoop.2021.100132] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2021] [Revised: 04/03/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Metastatic small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) has a poor prognosis. Due to its rarity, high-quality data are lacking to guide treatment. This retrospective analysis was conducted to help characterize the treatment options for patients with metastatic SBA while providing clinically meaningful prognostic information. Patients and methods In total, 437 patients who initially presented with or developed metastatic SBA between September 1977 and September 2019 were identified from the MD Anderson Tumor Registry. Clinical data were collected from review of the medical record. Overall response rates (ORR), time to progression (TTP), and overall survival (OS) were assessed across various treatments and treatment lines. Results The median OS from diagnosis of metastatic disease was 15.9 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 14.3-17.9]. Seventy-five patients (17.1%) underwent metastasectomy, which was associated with a median OS of 34.5 versus 17.1 months among patients who received chemotherapy alone (P < 0.001). Fluoropyrimidine plus platinum (n = 164) was the most common first-line chemotherapy, associated with an ORR of 59% and TTP of 8.1 months. Irinotecan with 5-FU (n = 101) was the most common second-line therapy associated with an ORR of 31% and TTP of 4.0 months. Twenty-two patients received immunotherapy; 5 of 6 patients with deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) responded, while 0 of 16 with proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) responded. Taxane-based chemotherapy was given to 34 patients with an ORR of 21% and a median TTP of 2.4 months. Among 11 patients who received anti-epidermal-growth-factor-receptor (EGFR) monotherapy, the best response was stable disease (SD) in 1 patient. Conclusions In well-selected patients with SBA, metastasectomy appears to be associated with improved OS. This improvement was seen across metastasectomy sites, including liver, lung and peritoneal. Anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) based immunotherapy was active for dMMR SBA but not pMMR SBA. While taxane-based chemotherapy demonstrates therapeutic activity, the activity of anti-EGFR therapy was limited. Metastasectomy for well-selected metastatic SBA patients was associated with improved OS. Anti-PD1-based immunotherapy was active for dMMR SBA but not pMMR SBA. Taxane-based chemotherapy demonstrated clinical activity in refractory SBA. Anti-EGFR therapy demonstrated minimal activity in SBA.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare malignancy characterized by poor prognosis. Recent efforts have sought to elucidate the genetic landscape and the molecular drivers behind this disease. Herein, we report the main molecular alterations in two metastatic (stage IV) SBA patients. Interestingly, one of them had gene alterations that affected signaling pathways previously described for SBA. However, a second patient displayed previously unreported alterations in this particular tumor type. Based on these findings we discuss potential treatment options for patients affected by this rare, aggressive disease.

Abstract
SBA classification is still based on the location of the primary tumor, without genetic information. in the current study, an extensive genetic profile of SBA, was performed in order to identify and quantify targetable alterations for a future precision medicine in SBA. Clinical-pathological information for 24 patients affected by SBA were retrospectively reviewed. Whole genome analysis of the primary tumors was performed by the FOUNDATION Cdx technology. We carried out a functional enrichment analysis of the mutated genes with BioPlanet. Integrative clustering analysis revealed three distinct subtypes characterized by different genomic alterations. Cluster 1exhibited significant correlations with MSI status, high TMB, celiac disease and Jejunual site.We defined cluster 1 as "immunological subtype" (29.2% of patients). Driver mutations in this subtype suggest that 100% of patients may benefit from immunotherapy. Enrichment analysis of cluster 2 highlighted that the main affected pathway was that of homologous DNA pairing and strand exchange (16.7% of patients). We defined this cluster as "DNA Damage Repair (DDR) like". On the basis of these driver molecular alterations, 100% of patients could benefit from PARPi. Finally, Cluster 3 had no significant correlations with clinical-pathological characteristics (54.1% of patients). Enrichment analysis revealed that this cluster has remarkable similarities with CRA genomic profile, so we defined it as "Colon-like". SBA is a genetically distinct tumor entity and deep mutation heterogeneity indicates that different driver genes play a role in the biology of these tumors. The identification of clusters based on genetic profile suggest the possibility to go beyond chemotherapy in several patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs) are rare cancers that have a distinct clinical characteristic and genetic profile. The only potentially curative treatment for localized SBAs is surgery, and treatment options are limited for patients in the advanced stage of disease. PATIENT CONCERNS A 39-year-old woman presented in October 2015 with a complaint of persistent vomiting for 8 months. DIAGNOSIS The patient had obstruction caused by a 3 × 2 cm mass at the ascending part of the duodenum and suspected metastasis in the right adnexal region. Postoperative pathology showed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma with serosal invasion. The diagnosis was stage IV duodenum adenocarcinoma with right adnexal metastasis. INTERVENTIONS After the failure of multi-line treatment with chemotherapy and targeted therapy, she was treated with the immune checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab plus regorafenib. OUTCOMES Disease control lasted for 15 months with markedly improved symptoms. CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of small bowel adenocarcinoma that has been treated with nivolumab combined with regorafenib. This case highlights the potential efficacy of combining nivolumab and regorafenib in the treatment of SBAs.

Abstract
Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare tumour. Large genomic analyses with prognostic assessments are lacking. The NADEGE cohort has enrolled 347 patients with all stage SBA from 2009 to 2012. Next-generation sequencing investigates the presence of 740 hotspot somatic mutations in a panel of 46 genes involved in carcinogenesis. The mismatch repair (MMR) status was assessed by immunochemistry. We have collected 196 tumour samples and 125 had conclusive results for mutation analysis. The number of mutations was 0 in 9.6% of tumours, only 1 in 32.0%, 2 in 26.4% and ≥3 in 32.0%. Overall, at least one genomic alteration was observed in 90.4% of tumour. The most frequent genomic alteration was in KRAS (44.0%), TP53 (38.4%), PIK3CA (20.0%), APC (18.4%), SMAD4 (14.4%) and ERBB2 (7.2%) genes. KRAS mutations were more frequent in synchronous metastatic tumours than in localised tumours (72.7% vs 38.2%, P = .003). There was no significant difference in the mutation rates according to primary location for the most frequently altered gene. ATM, FGFR3 and FGFR1 gene alterations were associated with Lynch syndrome and IDH1 mutations with Crohn disease. dMMR tumours were associated with younger age, localised tumours, less KRAS but more SMARCB1 mutations. No genomic alteration was associated with overall survival. There is a trend for better survival in patient with dMMR tumours. In conclusion, there is a different genomic alteration profile in SBA according to predisposing diseases. No association between genomic alterations and prognoses was observed except for a trend of better prognoses associated with dMMR.

[PMID: 33228145 PMCID: PMC7699330 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12113441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2020] [Revised: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 11/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Since small bowel adenocarcinoma may mimic a colorectal primary neoplasm histologically, it is pivotal to find biomarkers to discriminate these two biologically distinct neoplasms. The aim of our study was to evaluate the expression of special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2), expressed in the vast majority of colorectal carcinomas, and other gastrointestinal phenotypic markers, such as cytokeratin 7, cytokeratin 20 and caudal type homeobox 2 (CDX2), in 100 small bowel adenocarcinomas. We identified 20 SATB2-positive small bowel adenocarcinomas, including nine sporadic cancers, seven celiac disease-associated cancers and four Crohn’s disease-associated small bowel adenocarcinomas. Six small bowel adenocarcinomas, including two cases associated with celiac disease and four sporadic, displayed a full colorectal carcinoma-like immunoprofile. Unlike SATB2, cytokeratin patterns stratified small bowel adenocarcinoma patient prognosis. The small bowel should be considered as one of the possible sites of origin in cancers of unknown primary, even when the neoplasm shows a colorectal carcinoma-like immunoprofile. Abstract Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) is a transcription factor expressed by colonic cryptic epithelium and epithelial neoplasms of the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract, as well as by small bowel adenocarcinomas (SBAs), though at a lower rate. Nevertheless, up to now, only small SBA series, often including a very limited number of Crohn’s disease-associated SBAs (CrD-SBAs) and celiac disease-associated SBAs (CD-SBA), have been investigated for SATB2 expression. We evaluated the expression of SATB2 and other GI phenotypic markers (cytokeratin (CK) 7 and CK20, caudal type homeobox 2 (CDX2) and alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR)), as well as mismatch repair (MMR) proteins, in 100 SBAs, encompassing 34 CrD-SBAs, 28 CD-SBAs and 38 sporadic cases (Spo-SBAs). Any mutual association and correlation with other clinico-pathologic features, including patient prognosis, were searched. Twenty (20%) SATB2-positive SBAs (4 CrD-SBAs, 7 CD-SBAs and 9 Spo-SBAs) were identified. The prevalence of SATB2 positivity was lower in CrD-SBA (12%) in comparison with both CD-SBAs (25%) and Spo-SBAs (24%). Interestingly, six SBAs (two CD-SBAs and four Spo-SBAs) displayed a full colorectal carcinoma (CRC)-like immunoprofile (CK7−/CK20+/CDX2+/AMACR+/SATB2+); none of them was a CrD-SBA. No association between SATB2 expression and MMR status was observed. Although SATB2-positive SBA patients showed a more favorable outcome in comparison with SATB2-negative ones, the difference did not reach statistical significance. When cancers were stratified according to CK7/CK20 expression patterns, we found that CK7−/CK20- SBAs were enriched with MMR-deficient cases (71%) and patients with CK7−/CK20− or CK7−/CK20+ SBAs had a significantly better survival rate compared to those with CK7+/CK20− or CK7+/CK20+ cancers (p = 0.002). To conclude, we identified a small (6%) subset of SBAs featuring a full CRC-like immunoprofile, representing a potential diagnostic pitfall in attempts to identify the site of origin of neoplasms of unknown primary site. In contrast with data on colorectal carcinoma, SATB2 expression is not associated with MMR status in SBAs. CK patterns influence patient survival, as CK7−/CK20− cancers show better prognosis, a behavior possibly due to the high rate of MMR-deficient SBAs within this subgroup.

Abstract
AIMS Previous estimates of the prevalence of mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency and Lynch syndrome in small bowel cancer have varied widely. The aim of this study was to establish the prevalence of MMR deficiency and Lynch syndrome in a large group of small bowel adenocarcinomas. METHODS To this end, a total of 400 small bowel adenocarcinomas (332 resections, 68 biopsies) were collected through the Dutch nationwide registry of histopathology and cytopathology (Pathologisch-Anatomisch Landelijk Geautomatiseerd Archief (PALGA)). No preselection criteria, such as family history, were applied, thus avoiding (ascertainment) bias. MMR deficiency status was determined by immunohistochemical staining of MMR proteins, supplemented by MLH1 promoter hypermethylation analysis and next generation sequencing of the MMR genes. RESULTS MMR deficiency was observed in 22.3% of resected and 4.4% of biopsied small bowel carcinomas. Prevalence of Lynch syndrome was 6.2% in resections and 0.0% in biopsy samples. Patients with Lynch syndrome-associated small bowel cancer were significantly younger at the time of diagnosis than patients with MMR-proficient and sporadic MMR-deficient cancers (mean age of 54.6 years vs 66.6 years and 68.8 years, respectively, p<0.000). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of MMR deficiency and Lynch syndrome in resected small bowel adenocarcinomas is at least comparable to prevalence in colorectal cancers, a finding relevant both for treatment (immunotherapy) and family management. We recommend that all small bowel adenocarcinomas should be screened for MMR deficiency.

Kim JW, Jun SY, Ylaya K, Chang HK, Oh YH, Hong SM, Chung JY, Hewitt SM. Loss of HES-1 Expression Predicts a Poor Prognosis for Small Intestinal Adenocarcinoma Patients. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1427. [PMID: 32974155 PMCID: PMC7466551 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.01427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: Hairy and enhancer of split-1 (HES-1), which is a downstream target of the Notch signaling pathway, has been linked to KRAS mutations. HES-1 has been proposed as harboring oncogenic activity in colorectal cancer but has not been investigated in adenocarcinoma of the small intestine, where the drivers of oncogenesis are not as well-understood. Materials and Methods: To investigate the clinicopathologic and prognostic implications of HES-1, HES-1 immunohistochemical expression was analyzed in digital images along with clinicopathological variables, including survival and KRAS genotype, in 185 small intestinal adenocarcinomas. Results: The loss of HES-1 expression (HES-1Loss) was observed in 38.4% (71/185) of the patients, and was associated with higher pT category (P = 0.018), pancreatic invasion (P = 0.005), high grade (P = 0.043), and non-tubular histology (P = 0.004). Specifically, in tumors with mutant KRAS (KRAS MT), HES-1Loss was related to proximal location (P = 0.024), high T and N categories (P = 0.005 and 0.047, respectively), and pancreatic invasion (P = 0.004). Patients with HES-1Loss showed worse overall survival compared to those with intact HES-1 (HES-1Intact) (P = 0.013). Patients with HES-1Loss/KRAS MT (median, 17.3 months) had significantly worse outcomes than those with HES-1Intact/KRAS WT (39.9 months), HES-1Intact/KRAS MT (47.6 month), and HES-1Loss/KRAS WT (36.2 months; P = 0.010). By multivariate analysis, HES-1Loss (hazard ratio = 1.55, 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.07-2.26; P = 0.022) remained an independent prognostic factor. Conclusion: HES-1expression can be used as a potential prognostic marker and may aid in the management of patients with small intestinal adenocarcinomas.

Liu T, Wu Y, Jiang T. Efficacy of surgery and chemotherapy for stage IV small bowel adenocarcinoma: A population-based analysis using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Result Program database. Cancer Med 2020; 9:6638-6645. [PMID: 32750232 PMCID: PMC7520278 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.3266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2020] [Revised: 06/06/2020] [Accepted: 06/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of surgery and chemotherapy for stage IV small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is still confused. The results from previous analyses have been limited by small sample sizes and different treatment regimens. METHODS Patients with stage IV SBA were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Result Program (SEER) database. Cause-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated with Kaplan-Meier methods and log-rank test. Multiple logistic and Cox regression identified covariates associated with treatment options and survival. RESULTS 1219 eligible patients were involved in this study. The median age was 67 (range, 20-95) with 655 (53.7%) males and 564 (46.3%) females. Age and primary tumor site were significantly associated with surgery performance, age was also significantly associated with chemotherapy (P < .01). To reduce bias, further six subgroups were divided by age (≤65 and >65) and primary tumor site (duodenum, jejunum and ileum). Chemotherapy and surgery conferred a benefit on survival of the whole cohort (the median CSS of different treatment groups were 17, 9, 4, and 1 month respectively, P < .001) and most subgroups (83.3%, 5/6). In multivariate analysis, surgery (P = .006), and chemotherapy (P = .038) are still independent factors of favorable CSS and OS. For patients with surgery (n = 362), radical surgery was not associated with better survival. CONCLUSION For stage IV SBA patients, the present study showed that age and primary tumor site were significantly associated with treatment preference. Surgery and chemotherapy were consistently correlated with favorable survival for the whole cohort or most specific subgroups. However, compared with palliative surgery, significant association was not found in patients with radical surgery with better outcome. More prospective well-defined cohorts would add knowledge for this rare disease.
