Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is essential in treating advanced lung cancer. However, the effectiveness of endoscopic ultrasound with bronchoscope-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-B-FNA) in NGS remains unclear. This study examined the usefulness of EUS-B-FNA in lung cancer NGS cases where EUS-B-FNA was performed for specimen submission in a nationwide genomic screening platform (LC-SCRUM-Asia) and compared specimens collected using other bronchoscopy methods (endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration [EBUS-TBNA] and EBUS-guided transbronchial biopsy with a guide sheath [EBUS-GS-TBB]) during the same period.
We retrospectively compared the NGS success rates of NGS, DNA and RNA yields for EUS-B-FNA, EBUS-TBNA, and EBUS-GS-TBB from the records of the patients recruited for the Lung Cancer Genomic Screening Project for Individualized Medicine (LC-SCRUM)-Asia.
Fifty-one patients were enrolled, and the NGS success rates were comparable for samples obtained by EUS-B-FNA, EBUS-TBNA, and EBUS-GS-TBB (100%, 90.9%, and 81.0%, respectively). Genetic alterations were detected in 73.7%, 90.9%, and 85.7% of patients, respectively, with druggable genetic alterations found in 31.6%, 72.7%, and 61.9% of patients, respectively. The DNA and RNA yields were significantly higher in EUS-B-FNA samples than in EBUS-GS-TBB samples (50.4 (interquartile range (IR): 15.45-72.35) ng/μl and 33.9 (IR: 9-76.8) ng/μl from EUS-B-FNA, and 3.3 (IR: 1.4-7.1) ng/μl and 15.1 (IR: 8.3-31.5) ng/μl from EBUS-GS-TBB, respectively, p < 0.05).
EUS-B-FNA emerges as a promising bronchoscopic method for obtaining adequate samples for NGS in advanced lung cancer cases.
下一代测序(NGS)在治疗晚期肺癌中至关重要。然而,支气管镜引导下超声内镜细针抽吸(EUS-B-FNA)在 NGS 中的有效性尚不清楚。本研究通过在全国性基因组筛查平台(LC-SCRUM-Asia)中进行标本提交的 EUS-B-FNA,检查了 EUS-B-FNA 在肺癌 NGS 病例中的有用性,并比较了同期使用其他支气管镜方法(支气管内超声引导经支气管针吸活检 [EBUS-TBNA] 和支气管内超声引导带鞘经支气管活检 [EBUS-GS-TBB])获得的标本。
我们回顾性比较了从参加肺癌个体化医学基因组筛查项目(LC-SCRUM-Asia)的患者记录中获得的 NGS、DNA 和 RNA 产量的 NGS 成功率,用于 EUS-B-FNA、EBUS-TBNA 和 EBUS-GS-TBB。
共纳入 51 例患者,EUS-B-FNA、EBUS-TBNA 和 EBUS-GS-TBB 获得的样本 NGS 成功率相当(分别为 100%、90.9%和 81.0%)。分别有 73.7%、90.9%和 85.7%的患者检测到遗传改变,分别有 31.6%、72.7%和 61.9%的患者发现有可用药理遗传改变。EUS-B-FNA 样本的 DNA 和 RNA 产量明显高于 EBUS-GS-TBB 样本(EUS-B-FNA 为 50.4(四分位距(IR):15.45-72.35)ng/μl 和 33.9(IR:9-76.8)ng/μl,EBUS-GS-TBB 为 3.3(IR:1.4-7.1)ng/μl 和 15.1(IR:8.3-31.5)ng/μl,p<0.05)。
EUS-B-FNA 作为一种有前途的支气管镜方法,可获得晚期肺癌患者进行 NGS 的足够样本。
