Expression of Five Neuroblastoma Genes in Bone Marrow or Blood of Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Neuroblastoma Provides a New Biomarker for Disease and Prognosis

Abstract: We determined whether quantifying neuroblastoma-associated mRNAs (NB-mRNAs) in bone marrow and blood improves assessment of disease and prediction of disease progression in patients with relapsed/refractory neuroblastoma. mRNA for CHGA, DCX, DDC, PHOX2B, and TH was quantified in bone marrow and blood from 101 patients concurrently with clinical disease evaluations. Correlation between NB-mRNA (delta cycle threshold, Δ, for the geometric mean of genes from the TaqMan Low Density Array NB5 assay) and morphologic… Show more

“…Through cell spiking assay using different but known amounts of SW1116, SW48, HCA‐7, LoVo, SW620 and RKO cancer cells, and subsequent RT‐PCR, we successfully established the following CTC equations for CEA Gene Assay and Six‐gene Assay. Based on previous studies (Marachelian et al ., ; Vandesompele et al ., ), a summary ΔCt for the six tested genes was calculated by subtracting the GM of the Ct for two reference genes from the GM of the Ct for the six genes. With a direct correlation between CTC numbers and ΔCt (Six‐gene) value, this CTC quantitative equation and corresponding transformation table (Table ) allow us to calculate CTC numbers by the ΔCt (Six‐gene) value of unknown blood samples.…”

“…Несмотря на использование интенсивной комплексной терапии, долгосрочная бессобытийная выживаемость (БСВ) у пациентов с НБ, относящихся к группе высокого риска, не превышает 40 % [2,3], а около 20 % из этой группы развивают первичную резистентность к терапии (точная оценка затруднена тем, что до недавнего времени отсутствовали универсальные критерии резистентности [4]). Персистирование опухолевых клеток, выявляемое любым из методов, ассоциировано с крайне неблагоприятным прогнозом заболевания [5]. Кроме того, на основании ряда клинических и биологических факторов можно выделить группу ультравысокого риска, долгосрочная БСВ в которой не превышает 5 % [6].…”

“…For example, high levels of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and paired‐like homeobox 2b (PHOX2B) mRNA in peripheral blood at diagnosis is strongly associated with inferior EFS and OS, identifying an UHR group representing 19% of patients with 5‐year EFS of 0% . Similarly, a 5‐gene mRNA assay is prognostic in patients being treated for relapsed/refractory NBL . At present, these different biomarkers have not been assessed in a multivariable analysis, so it is unknown whether they identify differential patient subsets or are surrogates for other prognostic factors.…”

“…19 Similarly, a 5-gene mRNA assay is prognostic in patients being treated for relapsed/refractory NBL. 20 At present, these different biomarkers have not been assessed in a multivariable analysis, so it is unknown whether they identify differential patient subsets or are surrogates for other prognostic factors. For example, at the end of induction it is likely that those with residual MIBG-avid lesions will overlap to a significant extent with MRD-positive cases.…”
