Mutation and prognostic analyses of PIK3CA in patients with completely resected lung adenocarcinoma

Abstract: PIK3CA mutation represents a clinical subset of diverse carcinomas. We explored the status of PIK3CA mutation and evaluated its genetic variability, treatment, and prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. A total of 810 patients with completely resected lung adenocarcinoma were recruited between 2008 and 2013. The status of PIK3CA mutation and other three genes, that is, EGFR mutation, KRAS mutation and ALK fusion were examined by reverse transcription‐polymerase chain reaction (RT‐PCR). Survival curves… Show more

“…There are conflicting reports in the literature about the prognostic value of PIK3CA mutations in solid tumors. While a number of studies have suggested that the presence of a PIK3CA mutation confers a poor prognosis in several cancers including breast, lung and colorectal [30][31][32], other studies have reported no significant difference between patients harbouring PIK3CA mutations and those with wildtype PIK3CA in their tumors [33][34][35], which is consistent with our findings. However, there are currently several ongoing trials targeting PIK3CA mutated tumors with PI3K inhibitors, with some promising results.…”

“…We first described a large cohort study analyzing niche mutations in adenocarcinoma of the lung and their prognostic role as compared with the more frequently diagnosed mutations. In the current scientific literature, many studies have described the occurrence of general somatic mutations in NSCLC, although some niche mutations, such as c-MET and RET in adenocarcinoma of the lung have been described in a few short reports [19][20][21][22], or in a larger population focusing on a single-niche mutation of PIK3CA [23][24][25]. We took into consideration different rare mutations observed in BRAF, PIK3CA, HER2, and NRAS detected with a total frequency equal to 16.7% of patients with lung adenocarcinoma harboring somatic mutations, which is not a negligible prevalence if transposed to the entire population.…”

“…In addition, overexpression of PIK3CA has been linked to decreased patient survival; however, there is little known about the role of mutated PIK3CA in HNSCC disease progression (34). Aside from HNSCC, P120CTN loss or PIK3CA mutations correlate with decreased patient survival in many types of cancers (14,(35)(36)(37)(38)(39). At first glance, some cancers, such as colon cancer, show no statistical significance of PIK3CA mutations on patient outcomes (40).…”

“…E545K and H1047R mutations account for 90% of these mutations. PIK3CA mutations are associated with decreased survival in many cancers, but their impact on HNSCC has so far been limited to serving as a marker of late stage disease (14)(15)(16). Interestingly, PIK3CA, like P120CTN, is affected by tobacco smoke, the primary risk factor for HNSCC.…”
