Gan T, An W, Long Y, Wang J, Zhang H, Liao M. Correlation between carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression and EGFR mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer: a meta-analysis. Clin Transl Oncol 2024; 26:991-1000. [PMID: 38030870 DOI: 10.1007/s12094-023-03339-7] [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: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the relationship between serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) expression and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Databases such as PubMed, Cochrane, EMBASE and Google Scholar were systematically searched to identify studies assessing the association of serum CEA expression with EGFR mutations. Across 19 studies, 4168 patients were included between CEA expression and EGFR mutations odds ratio (OR) conjoint analysis of correlations. RESULTS Compared with CEA-negative NSCLC, CEA-positive tumors had an increased EGFR mutation rate (OR = 1.85, 95% confidence interval: 1.48-2.32, P < 0.00001). This association was observed in both stage IIIB/IV patients (OR = 1.60, 95% CI: 1.18-2.15, P = 0.002) and stage I-IIIA (OR = 1.67, 95% CI: 1.01-2.77, P = 0.05) patients. In addition, CEA expression was associated with exon 19 (OR = 1.97, 95% CI: 1.25-3.11, P = 0.003) and exon 21 (OR = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.07-2.12, P = 0.02) EGFR mutations. In ADC pathological type had also showed the correlation (OR = 1.84, 95% CI: 1.31-2.57, P = 0.0004). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis indicated that serum CEA expression was associated with EGFR mutations in NSCLC patients. The results of this study suggest that CEA level may play a predictive role in the EGFR mutation status of NSCLC patients. Detecting serum CEA expression levels can give a good suggestion to those patients who are confused about whether to undergo EGFR mutation tests. Moreover, it may help better plan of the follow-up treatment.

Clinical Utility of Plasma Cell-Free DNA EGFR Mutation Analysis in Treatment-Naïve Stage IV Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11041144. [PMID: 35207417 PMCID: PMC8880481 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11041144] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Plasma cell-free Deoxyribo nucleic acid epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation tests are widely used at initial diagnosis and at progression in stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We analyzed the factors associated with plasma EGFR mutation detection and the effect of plasma EGFR genotyping on the clinical outcomes of the patients with treatment-naïve stage IV NSCLC. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included subjects with treatment-naïve stage IV NSCLC who underwent plasma EGFR genotyping between 2018 and 2020. The presence of plasma EGFR mutation was determined by real-time polymeric chain reaction. Results: The prevalence of EGFR mutation in this cohort was 52.7% (164/311). Among 164 EGFR mutant subjects, 34 (20.7%) were positive for the plasma EGFR mutation assay only. In multivariable analysis, the detection of plasma EGFR mutation was significantly related to higher serum carcinoembryonic antigen levels, never-smoker status, N3 stage, and brain or intrathoracic metastasis. The time to treatment initiation (TTI) of the plasma EGFR mutation-positive group (14 days) was shorter than that of the plasma EGFR mutation-negative group (21 days, p < 0.001). More patients received the 1st line EGFR-TKI in the plasma positive group compared with the tissue positive group. Conclusion: Smoking status and the factors reflecting tumor burden were associated with the detection of plasma EGFR mutation. The plasma EGFR mutation assay can shorten the TTI, and facilitate the 1st line EGFR-TKI therapy for patients with treatment-naïve stage IV NSCLC, especially in the region of high-prevalence of EGFR mutation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To explore the potential parameters from F-FDG PET/CT that might be associated with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation status in lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) patients. METHODS Data of the test cohort of 191 patients and the validation cohort of 55 patients with newly diagnosed ADC were retrospectively reviewed. All patients underwent F-FDG PET/CT scans and EGFR mutation tests prior to treatment. The metabolic parameters obtained from F-FDG PET/CT combining with clinical characteristics were analyzed by using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Then two cohorts were enrolled to validate the predictive model by area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC), respectively. RESULTS EGFR mutation-positive was seen of 33.0% (63/191) and 32.7% (18/55) in two cohorts, respectively. In univariate analysis, female, nonsmokers, metabolic parameters of primary tumor [mean standardized uptake value, metabolic tumor volume (pMTV), and total lesion glycolysis], non-necrosis of primary tumor, and serum tumor markers [carbohydrate antigen 19-9, squamous cell carcinoma antigen, and precursor of gastrin releasing peptide (proGRP)] were significantly relevant with EGFR mutation. In multivariate analysis with adjustment of age and TNM stage, pMTV (<8.13 cm), proGRP (≥38.44 pg/ml) and women were independent significant predictors for EGFR mutation. The AUC for the predictive value of these factors was 0.739 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.665-0.813] in the cohort of 191 patients and 0.716 (95% CI 0.567-0.865) in the cohort of 55 patients, respectively. CONCLUSION Low pMTV (<8.13 cm) was an independent predictor and could be integrated with women and high proGRP (≥38.44 pg/ml) to enhance the discriminability on the EGFR mutation status in ADC patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the valuable predictors for evaluating progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with lung adenocarcinoma, we analyzed the potential roles of standardized uptake value (SUV)-derived parameters from 18F-FDG PET/CT, combining with the gene mutation states of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and other clinical characteristics. METHODS Data of 84 lung adenocarcinoma patients pre-treated, who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT scans, EGFR gene mutations test, ALK rearrangement assay and other relative tests, were retrospectively collected. Then a series of clinical parameters including EGFR/ALK mutation status and SUV-derived features [maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax), average of standardized uptake value (SUVmean), metabolic tumor volume (MTV), and total lesion glycolysis (TLG)] were evaluated. Best possible cutoff points for all measuring parameters were calculated using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. Survival analysis was performed using Cox proportional hazards model to determine the prognostic markers for progression-free survival (PFS). Survival curves were obtained through Log-rank test and Kaplan-Meier curve. RESULTS The median follow-up period was 31 months (24 to 58 months). It was found that SUVmax (≥3.01), SUVmean (≥2.25), MTV (≥25.41 cm3), and TLG (≥55.02) of the primary tumors were significantly associated with PFS in univariate Cox proportional hazards regression. Then regardless of age, gender, co-morbidity, EGFR/ALK mutation status, and treatment program, TLG (≥ 55.02, HR=4.965, 95%CI: 1.360-18.133), TNM stage (Ⅲ/Ⅳ, HR=7.811, 95%CI: 2.977-20.489), pro-gastrin releasing peptide (proGRP) (≥45.65 ng/L, HR=4.070, 95%CI: 1.442-11.487), tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA) (≥68.20 U/L, HR=6.996, 95%CI: 1.458-33.574), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (≥82.50 IU/L, HR=4.160, 95%CI: 1.416-12.219) and ratio of activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTTR) (≥1.16: HR=4.58, 95%CI: 1.913-10.946) showed the independently relevant to PFS through multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis. The EGFR mutant (P=0.343) and ALK rearrangement (P=0.608) were not significant either in survival analysis. CONCLUSION High SUV-derived parameters (SUVmax, SUVmean, MTV and TLG) might provide prognostic value to some extent. Especially, TLG, and other clinical features [TNM stage, proGRP, TPA, ALP, and aPTTR] could be independently and significantly associated with PFS of lung adenocarcinoma patients. However, EGFR/ALK gene status could not be effectively relevant to PFS in lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Oncol Lett 2020; 20:61. [PMID: 32863894 PMCID: PMC7436113 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2020.11922] [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: 12/16/2017] [Accepted: 03/01/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) contribute to an increased response rate, compared with chemotherapy, in patients with inhibitor-sensitive EGFR mutations. The present study evaluated the association between the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (FDG PET/CT), as well as serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels and EGFR mutations prior to treatment, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients with histologically confirmed NSCLC (n=167), who underwent an 18F-FDG PET/CT scan, EGFR mutation analysis and a serum CEA test participated in the present study. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze predictors of EGFR mutations. Receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to determine the efficient cut-off value. Survival rate analysis was evaluated according to SUVmax and EGFR mutation status. A decreased SUVmax and an increased CEA level was observed in patients with EGFR-mutations, compared with patients with wild-type primary lesions and metastatic lymph nodes. The exon 19 EGFR mutation was associated with increased SUVmax, compared with the exon 21 L858R mutation. The ROC analysis indicated that an 18F-FDG PET/CT uptake SUVmax >11.5 may be a predictor of the wild-type EGFR genotype and increased CEA levels (CEA >9.4 ng/ml) were associated with EGFR mutations. Furthermore, patients with no smoking history, low SUVmax of the primary tumor, metastatic lymph nodes and a high CEA level were significantly associated with EGFR mutation status. The results of the present study indicated that patients with advanced NSCLC, particularly Chinese patients, with decreased SUVmax and increased CEA levels are associated with EGFR mutations, which may serve as predictors for the EGFR-TKI therapeutic response.

Abstract
AIM To clarify the clinicopathological features in elderly anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective study was performed in 129 ALK rearranged NSCLC patients diagnosed between April 2008 and March 2019 in fifteen Institutions of the Ibaraki prefecture, Japan. RESULTS Median age of patients was 63 years. In 59 patients aged 65 and older, the proportions of patients with advanced stage and those treated with ALK-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) were lower than those younger than 65 years. There was no difference in overall survival (OS) between the two age groups. Among the elderly patients, no difference was observed in OS between the patients aged 65-69 and those aged 70 and older. In 89 patients treated with TKI, no significant differences were observed in the progression-free survival of TKIs and OS between patients aged 65 and older and those younger than 65, respectively. CONCLUSION Evaluation of ALK gene status and TKI treatment are desirable even for elderly patients.

Abstract
AIM To clarify the correlation between serum levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA) and metastasis and survival in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS CEA and CYFRA levels in 131 ALK-rearranged NSCLC patients were determined using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), real time-reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and immunohistochemistry, using biopsy specimens, cytology specimens, and plasma specimens. Cut-off value of each marker was determined as 10 ng/ml. RESULTS In logistic regression analysis, higher levels of both markers had a positive relationship with bone metastases, and higher levels of CYFRA was relevant to liver metastases, and multiple-organ metastases. However, these markers were not proven to be poor prognostic factors in Cox's proportional model analysis. CONCLUSION Elevated serum CEA and CYFRA levels seem to provide useful clinical information about presence of bone and liver metastasis and multiple-organ metastases, although they were not a powerful indicator of prognosis. These two markers may suggest the extension of metastasis and would be helpful in considering treatment options.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study was to explore the predictive value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCAg), and neuron‐specific enolase (NSE) in the prediction of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations in advance stage non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Subjects and Methods A total of 482 cases with untreated lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively reviewed. Finally, 72 patients with stage IV were enrolled because of intact data of the detection of ALK rearrangement and serum tumor markers, as well they have not received any previous anticancer therapy. We used the one‐way ANOVA analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple logistic regression analysis to evaluate the relationship between the level of serum tumor markers and ALK mutations. Results Fifteen cases with ALK mutations and 57 cases without mutations were identified. The result of the one‐way ANOVA analysis showed only CEA was significantly associated with ALK mutations (95% CI:39.05‐148.88; P = .001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of CEA was 0.705 (95%CI:0.567‐0.843; P = .015). However, no significant association was observed between CEA and ALK mutations though the result of correlation analysis (P = .069) and multivariate logistic regression analysis (OR = 0.988, 95% CI: 0.972‐1.003, P = .111). Conclusions In our study, we performed on the patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma in our region and found preoperative serum levels of SCCAg, CYRF21‐1, and NSE not suitable for the detection of ALK mutation. Although we observed a significant association between CEA and ALK mutations; however, it was not strong enough to distinguish ALK status for the patients in our region.

Abstract
Background Gene analysis could not be performed in all patients, especially in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We aimed to find some clinical futures and CT or FDG-PET characteristics, which could be combined to help distinguish anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement form epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in treatment naïve advanced lung adenocarcinoma of Chinese patients. Methods We retrospectively reviewed clinical and radiological characteristics of 145 patients with treatment naïve advanced lung adenocarcinoma. The one-way ANOVA, the Mann-Whitney test, chi-square test and logistic regression were used for comparison between patients with ALK rearrangement and those with EGFR mutation. Results Among 145 patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma, only six patients had both ALK rearrangement and EGFR mutation, the sample size was too small to analysis. Univariate analysis revealed that patients with ALK rearrangement were younger (P=0.001) and with lower serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level (P=0.008) than those with EGFR mutation. More of tumors with ALK rearrangement were well defined (P=0.023) and have bubble lucency (P=0.026) compared with those with EGFR mutation (P=0.026). Lymphadenopathy was seen more frequently in patients with ALK rearrangement (P=0.167). Twenty-six patients received FDG-PET/CT, among this population, lesion standardized uptake values (SUV) >6.95 and lymph nodes SUVmax >6.25 were more often seen in ALK rearrangement group (P=0.011, both). In multivariate analysis, patients younger than 50 years (RR =9.878, 95% CI: 2.318-42.090, P=0.002), with lower CEA level than 4.95 µg/L (RR =8.166, 95% CI: 1.085-31.983, P=0.003) and without brain metastasis (RR =7.304, 95% CI: 1.099-48.558, P=0.040) were more likely to be ALK rearrangement than EGFR mutation. Tumor diameter less than 36 mm were prone to be EGFR mutation (RR =0.078, 95% CI: 0.017-0.356, P=0.001). Conclusions Treatment naïve advanced lung adenocarcinomas with ALK rearrangement were more likely to have younger age, lower serum CEA level, larger tumor volume, well defined tumor border, and non-brain metastasis than those with EGFR mutation. Bubble lucency and higher FDG uptake of lesion and lymph nodes may help distinguish ALK rearrangement from EGFR mutation in the absence of genetic analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) significantly improve the survival of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients harboring EGFR mutation. Limited to the standards of tumor tissue samples and detection methods, still some people can't receive target therapy following genetic guidance. This study was to explore the relevance between serum tumor markers and treatment of EGFR-TKIs. METHODS We retrospectively collected the clinical information of advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients harboring EGFR mutation, who received EGFR-TKIs as first-line therapy from June 2009 to June 2014 in Peking University Cancer Hospital, analyzed the relationship between serum tumor markers and efficacy of EGFR-TKIs. RESULTS The objective response rate (ORR) was 52.8% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 89.3%. The results showed that, patients with high CEA level before treatment responded better to TKIs (ORR 61.3% vs 35.9%, DCR 95.2% vs 74.4%, P<0.001). Similar phenomena was found in patients with CEA decreased 1 month later (61.5% vs 25%, P=0.002). Progression-free survival (PFS) significantly prolonged in patients with elevated baseline CEA (mPFS 9.8 mo vs 5.9 mo, P=0.027). To the opposite, PFS was significantly shorter in patients with elevated baseline CYFRA21-1 and CA125 (mPFS 9.0 mo vs 11.4 mo, P=0.029; 9.0 mo vs 11.5 mo, P=0.023, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed that Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score of 0-1, normal baseline CYFRA21-1 and CEA decline predicted longer PFS. The overall survival (OS) was highly associated with elevated CYFRA21-1 and CA125 (median OS 25.1 mo vs 52.5 mo, P=0.003; 22.7 mo vs 55.0 mo, P<0.001, respectively), while independent of CEA. CONCLUSIONS High level of baseline CEA and decline 1 month after treatment could predict the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs in patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. While high levels of baseline CYFRA21-1 and CA125 indicated shortened survival.

Abstract
Among epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation status unknown nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, those with higher carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level are more likely to response to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) because they tend to have mutant epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). However, patients with higher CEA also have more tumor burden. With the above paradoxical evidence, it is prudent to understand the prognostic significance of baseline CEA in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with first-line EGFR-TKIs. The clinical significance of the trend in CEA after treatment and the impact of CEA normalization during EGFR-TKI therapy are also unknown and potentially important. A total of 241 patients who received first-line EGFR-TKIs were included. As to baseline CEA, patients were divided into normal, low, and high baseline CEA by cut point determined by receiver operating characteristic curves. As to CEA responses, patients were divided into 3 groups accordingly to their amount of CEA change after taking TKIs. In group A, 1-month follow-up CEA level decreased more than 35% with nadir CEA normalization; in group B, 1-month follow-up CEA level decreased more than 35% without nadir CEA normalization; and in group C, 1-month follow-up CEA level decreased less than 35% or increased. Patients with higher baseline CEA levels had shorter progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) (CEA > 32 vs 5-32 vs <5 ng/mL, PFS = 8.8 vs 11.3 vs 14.4 months, respectively, P < 0.001; OS = 17.8 vs 22.0 vs 27.9 months, respectively, P = 0.01). For trend and CEA normalization in groups A, B, and C, PFS was 14.3, 10.6, and 7.1 months, respectively (P < 0.001); OS was 29.7, 20.0, and 16.2 months, respectively (P < 0.001). Baseline, trend, and normalization of CEA levels are potential prognostic markers for patients with EGFR-mutant advanced NSCLC treated with first line EGFR-TKIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To evaluate differences in the clinical characteristics and molecular pathology of lung adenocarcinoma subtypes as defined by the new International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society international histological classification. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 269 patients with initial primary lung adenocarcinoma who had undergone complete resection at our department from August 2013 to December 2014, focusing on the new histologic subtype classification, clinical characteristics, and molecular pathology. RESULTS All specimens were invasive adenocarcinoma, and were lepidic (13.0%), papillary (19.7%), acinar (51.7%), solid (8.6%), micropapillary (1.1%) or mucinous predominant (5.9%). Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations were detected in 132 cases (60.3%). Female patients and non-smokers had higher EGFR mutation rates (P = 0.022 and 0.026, respectively). The lepidic, papillary, acinar, solid, micropapillary, and mucinous predominant patterns had EGFR mutation rates of 70.6%, 64.8%, 72.5%, 33.3%, 100%, and 5.9%, respectively. The exon mutation distribution differed according to serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels (P = 0.018). v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutations were detected in 20 cases (9.2%), and were frequently found in the mucinous and solid predominant subtypes. The serum CEA levels differed among the subtypes. CONCLUSIONS In China, there are significant differences between lung adenocarcinoma histologic subtypes. The presence of well-differentiated components in lung adenocarcinoma indicates higher EGFR mutation rates; the presence of solid or mucinous components indicates higher KRAS mutation rates. Serum CEA levels are associated with histologic subtype and EGFR exon mutations.
