Geniş Bir Türk Kohortundaki Gastrik Adenokarsinomlarda Claudin 18.2 Ekspresyonu

Amaç: Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) özellikle gastrik adenokarsinomlarda (GC) eksprese edilen bir sıkı bağlantı proteinidir. CLDN18.2 ekspresyonunun prognostik ve klinikopatolojik etkileri halen bilinmemektedir. CLDN18.2'yi hedef alan Zolbetuximab monoklonal antikoru, ileri evre gastrik adenokarsinomlar için potansiyel bir tedavi olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, gastrik adenokarsinomlarda CLDN18.2 ekspresyonunun prognoz ve tümör özelliklerini geniş bir Türk kohortunda araştırmayı amaçladık. Metot: 263 GC vakası içeren yedi tane doku mikro dizini (TMA) hazırlanmıştır.CLDN18.2 ekspresyonu immünohistokimyal boyama yöntemi ile tespit edilmiş. Vakalar negatif ve pozitif olarak skorlanmıştır. Bulgular: GC’lerin %14,3'ü (37/258) anti-CLDN18.2 antikoru ile boyanmıştır. Tüm vakaların %7,8'i (20/258) pozitif, %92,2'si (238/258) negatif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. İki grup arasında yaş veya cinsiyet, tümör derecesi, TNM evresi, histolojik alt tip veya genel sağkalım gibi hasta özellikleri açısından istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunamamıştır. Sonuç: CLDN18.2 ekspresyonu Türk kohortundaki GC’li vakalarda prognoz ile ilişkili değildir. Bununla birlikte CLDN18.2 potansiyel bir terapötik hedeftir ve CLDN18.2 ekspresyonu ile ilgili bilgiler hastalık yönetiminde önemli olacaktır. GC’lerde CLDN18.2 ekspresyonunun klinikopatolojik özellikler üzerindeki etkilerini anlamak için daha fazla çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır.

Claudin 18.2 Expression in Gastric Adenocarcinomas in a Large Turkish Cohort

Background: Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) is a tight junction protein expressed especially in gastric adenocarcinomas. The prognostic and clinicopathologic implications of CLDN18.2 expression is currently unknown. Zolbetuximab monoclonal antibody against CLDN18.2 is under investigation as a potential treatment for advanced gastric cancer (GC). We aimed to investigate the impact of CLDN18.2 expression in GC on prognosis and tumor features in a large Turkish cohort. Methods: Seven tissue microarrays (TMAs) containing 263 cases of GC were constructed. Assessment of CLDN18.2 expression was performed by immunohistochemistry, where it was scored as negative and positive. Results: 14.3% (37/258) of GCs were stained with anti-CLDN18.2 antibody. While 7.8% (20/258) of all cases were positive, 92.2% (238/258) were scored as negative. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of patient features such as age or sex, tumor grade, TNM stage, histologic subtype or overall survival. Conclusion: CLDN18.2 expression was not associated with patient prognosis in the Turkish cohort. However, as this molecule is a potential therapeutic target, information about the impact of CLDN18.2 expression will be important in managing patients, therefore more studies are needed to learn more on the outcomes of CLDN18.2 expression on clinicopathologic features in GC.
