  26. PTEN Physical Features • Macrocephalic • No unusual skin lesions or pigmentation • BrCa at 42yoa • Macrocephaly • Facial papules (trichilemmomas) • ≥2 pathognomic? • Oral mucosal papillomatosis • 99% incidence • Acralkeratoses

  27. Breast Cancer- When to Refer • Breast cancer <50yoa • Triple negative breast cancer • 11-28% have BRCA1 mutations • Two breast cancer primaries in a single individual • ~30% risk of second primary in 10 years for BRCA1/2 • Breast or ovarian cancer at any age in those of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry • Breast cancer at any age and… • ≥1 close relative* with breast cancer <50yoa • ≥1 close relative* with epithelial ovarian cancer at any age • ≥2 close relatives* with breast cancer and/or pancreatic cancer at any age NCCN Guidelines: Genetic/Familial High-Risk Assessment: Breast and Ovarian *Includes third degree relatives

  28. When to Refer (2) • A combination of breast cancer with one or more of the following in close relatives: • Thyroid cancer • Sarcoma • Endometrial cancer • Pancreatic cancer • Brain tumors • Diffuse gastric cancer • Dermatologic manifestations and/or macrocephaly • Leukemia/lymphoma • Ovarian cancer with a family history of breast and/or ovarian cancer • Male breast cancer • 4-14% due to BRCA2 NCCN Guidelines: Genetic/Familial High-Risk Assessment: Breast and Ovarian

  29. Lynch Syndrome • A.k.a. hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer; includes Muir-Torre (sebaceous adenomas) • Incidence: 1 in 440 • Accounts for: • 2-10% of all CRC • 2% of ovarian cancers • 2-5% of endometrial • 9-20% of those <50y • Autosomal dominant • Multiple genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, MSH3, PMS1, PMS2, TACS (EPCAM), TD1) MSH6 MSH2 PMS1 Chr 2

  30. Lynch Syndrome- Cancer Risks • 22-92% lifetime risk of CRC • Mean age of 44yo (MLH1 or MSH2) • 6-19% lifetime risk of gastric cancer • More common in Japan • 20-70% risk of endometrial cancer • MSI-IHC testing recommended • 4-12% risk of ovarian cancer • 18% hepatobiliary • 5-10% urinary tract cancers • May also develop: • Small bowel, pancreatic cancer • Skin: (sebaceous carcinomas, keratocanthomas, and epitheliomas) • Brain tumors, especially glioblastoma

  31. Lynch Syndrome- Amsterdam II • Amsterdam II criteria (all have to be met): • ≥3 family members, one of whom is a first-degree relative of the other two, with HNPCC-related cancers (CRC, endometrial, stomach, small bowel, hepatobiliary, renal pelvic, or ureteral cancer) • Two successive generations • One or more HNPCC-related cancer diagnosed before 50yoa Used to make a clinical diagnosis of Lynch syndrome and does not take into account all possible Lynch syndrome-related tumors

  32. Lynch Syndrome- Bethesda • Modified Bethesda criteria (any of the following): • CRC diagnosed <50yoa • Presence of synchronous or metachronus CRC, or other HNPCC-related tumors (CRC, endometrial, gastric, ovarian, pancreatic, ureteral, biliary tract and brain tumor) regardless of age • CRC with microsatellite instability-high <60yoa • CRC in ≥1 first-degree relatives with HNPCC-related tumor with one cancer <50yoa • CRC in ≥2 first- or second-degree relatives at any age Used to guide additional testing such as MSI/IHC

  33. Lynch Syndrome- MSI • Microsatellite instability • Microsatellites are highly-repetitive DNA sequence • Susceptible to dynamic changes if not for the mismatch repair genes • MSI-high= instability >30% of cells • MSI-low= instability <30% of cells • MSI stable= no evidence of MSI

  34. Lynch- MSI Caveats • 90% of inherited tumors are MSI-high • MSI-high can be caused by many somatic (not inherited) events, most notably BRAF methylation/mutation • Some Lynch syndrome patients will have MSI-low or MSI-stable testing • Immunohistochemistry for mismatch repair proteins (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS1, PMS2) recommended as adjunctive analysis

  35. Lynch- Genetic Testing • If met Amsterdam II criteria, recommend genetic testing • If met Bethesda, testing of the tumor sample by MSI/IHC recommended initially with consideration of genetic testing • If MSI-high and IHC positive (i.e. absence of one of the proteins) the probability of Lynch is high therefore genetic testing recommended

  36. Familial Adenomatous Polyposis • A.k.aTurcot or Gardner syndromes • 1 in 6-20,000 live births • Due to genetic defect in APC • If negative, consider MYH testing • Accounts for <1% of all CRC • Hallmark is the adenomatous polyposis • 20-100% penetrance in the duodenum • 100% lifetime risk of CRC with average age of cancer diagnosis of 39y

  37. FAP: Age and Development of Adenomas and CRC FAP Adenomas % of patients with neoplasia CRC General population 80 20 40 60 Age Bussey HJR. Familial Polyposis Coli, 1975 Petersen GM et al. Gastro 100:1658, 1991

  38. FAP- Associated Risks • 4-12% lifetime risk of other intestinal cancers • 0.5-2% gastric • 5% duodenal • 1-2% risk of pancreatic and non-medullary thyroid • 0.6% risk of hepatoblastoma before 6yoa with 1-2% lifetime • 10-30% lifetime risk of desmoid tumors • Also a/w medulloblastoma as well as gliomas and ependymoma • CHRPE- congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigmented epithelium

  40. Letterman’s Top 10 Genetic Cancers • Adrenocortical carcinoma (LiFraumeni and BWS) • Carcinoid tumors (MEN I) • Diffuse gastric cancer (Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer) • Fallopian tube (HBOCS) • Leiomyosarcoma (HLRCC, Lynch, Rb) • Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MEN 2) • Paraganglioma/pheo (MEN 2, VHL, NF1, PGL) • Renal cell carcinoma- chromophobe, hybrid oncocytotic, oncocytoma histology (Britt-Hogg-Dube) • Sebaceous carcinoma (Lynch) • Sex cord tumor with annular tubule (PJS) Banks et al.

  41. Genetic Services

  42. When to Suspect Hereditary Cancer Syndrome • Cancer in 2 or more close relatives • Early age at diagnosis • Multiple primary tumors • Bilateral or multiple cancers • Constellation of tumors consistent with specific cancer syndrome (e.g. breast and ovary) • Evidence of autosomal dominant transmission

  43. Genetic Counseling- A Multistep Process • Detailed and extensive family history • Ethnic-risk evaluation • Cancer cluster recognition • Breast-ovarian-pancreatic • Macrocephaly-skin lesions-breast cancer • Gather necessary medical records • Determine who best to test • Insurance and insurability questions • Test selection • Pre- and post-test counseling • Psychosocial support • Test result interpretation • Help with informing family members of risk

  44. Taking a Cancer Family History • Obtain at least a three-generation pedigree • Ask about all individuals in the family and record: • Age at cancer diagnosis, age at and cause of death • Primary vs metastatic cancer • Precursor lesions, bilateral cancer • Physical features • Birth defects • Other diagnoses • Record ethnicity and race

  45. Stomach Ca Ovarian Ca dx 43, d. 49 Prostate Ca Bone Ca d. 59 Breast Ca dx 45 d. 59 BPH dx 54 Clarify Family History Revised pedigree based on pathology reports Verbally reported pedigree

  46. Testing The More Appropriate Person in the Family Colon Ca, 42 Test first, if possible Colon Ca, 45 Colon Ca, 38 d.45 Person seeking counseling (proband) If a mutation is found in an affected person, testing will be more informative for other family members

  47. ASCO- Genetic testing • A personal or family history suggesting genetic cancer susceptibility • Test can be adequately interpreted and put into clinical context • Results will aid in the diagnosis OR influence the management of the patient/family

  48. Informed Consent: Benefits of Genetic Testing • Improved cancer risk management • Relief from uncertainty and anxiety about cancer risk • Information for individual and family members • Lifestyle decision making

  49. Informed Consent: Potential Risks of Genetic Testing • Psychological distress • Anxiety/fear • Guilt • Depression • Grief • Loss of privacy • Discrimination by employers and insurers • Change in family dynamics • False sense of security

  50. Informed Consent: Limitations of Genetic Testing • Not all mutations are detectable • Uncertain significance of some mutations • Negative result is fully informative only if mutation has been identified in family • Results indicate probability, not certainty, of developing cancer • Unproven efficacy of most interventions ASCO
