Abstract:
3550 Background: There have been controversies in prognostic impact of mucinous histology in colorectal cancer (CRC) and its implication in pts treated with adjuvant FOLFOX is unclear. This study aimed at elucidating the molecular characteristics and prognostic implication of mucinous histology in pts treated with adjuvant FOLFOX. Methods: Stage II and III CRC pts who received adjuvant FOLFOX were analyzed. Pts were grouped according to the mucinous content: 〉 50%, mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC); 〈 50%, adenocarcinoma with intermediated mucinous component (AIM); and without any mucinous component, nonmucinous adenocarcinoma (NMA). Clinicopathologic features, MSI status (N = 518), CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) (N = 322) BRAF mutation (N = 269) and disease-free survival (DFS) were compared. Results: Among a total of 521 pts, 27 (5.2%) had MAC, 41 (7.9%) AIM, and 453 (86.9%) NMA. MAC and AIM had higher frequency of proximal location and lower angiolymphatic invasion. MAC had higher proportion of T4 tumors. AIM had higher frequency of age ≥65 years and female. In terms of molecular characteristics, MAC and AIM showed similarly higher proportion of MSI-high and CIMP-high compared to NMA. BRAF mutation also showed similar trend. In contrast to the similarities between MAC and AIM, DFS was significantly different. MAC showed significantly worse DFS compared with AIM and NMA, whereas AIM and NMA showed similar DFS. Multivariate analysis revealed MAC as an independent negative prognostic factor of DFS (adjusted HR 7.96, 95% CI 3.76-16.8). Conclusions: AIM and MAC has distinct clinico-pathologic features and molecular characteristics compared with NMA. Only MAC but not AIM has an adverse prognostic impact on stage II or III CRC treated with adjuvant FOLFOX compared with NMA. [Table: see text]
