  • MUC1-C regulates lineage plasticity driving progression to neuroendocrine prostate cancer

    Yasumizu Y., Rajabi H., Jin C., Hata T., Pitroda S., Long M.D., Hagiwara M., Li W., Hu Q., Liu S., Yamashita N., Fushimi A., Kui L., Samur M., Yamamoto M., Zhang Y., Zhang N., Hong D., Maeda T., Kosaka T., Wong K.K., Oya M., Kufe D.

     View Summary

    © 2020, The Author(s). Neuroendocrine prostate cancer (NEPC) is an aggressive malignancy with no effective targeted therapies. The oncogenic MUC1-C protein is overexpressed in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and NEPC, but its specific role is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that upregulation of MUC1-C in androgen-dependent PC cells suppresses androgen receptor (AR) axis signaling and induces the neural BRN2 transcription factor. MUC1-C activates a MYC→BRN2 pathway in association with induction of MYCN, EZH2 and NE differentiation markers (ASCL1, AURKA and SYP) linked to NEPC progression. Moreover, MUC1-C suppresses the p53 pathway, induces the Yamanaka pluripotency factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and MYC) and drives stemness. Targeting MUC1-C decreases PC self-renewal capacity and tumorigenicity, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach for CRPC and NEPC. In PC tissues, MUC1 expression associates with suppression of AR signaling and increases in BRN2 expression and NEPC score. These results highlight MUC1-C as a master effector of lineage plasticity driving progression to NEPC.

  • A Japanese patient with ductal carcinoma of the prostate carrying an adenomatosis polyposis coli gene mutation: a case report

    Umeda K., Kosaka T., Nakamura K., Takeda T., Mikami S., Nishihara H., Oya M.

    Diagnostic Pathology (Diagnostic Pathology)  15 ( 1 )  2020.08

     View Summary

    © 2020 The Author(s). Background: Ductal carcinoma of the prostate is a histological subtype with a higher mortality than acinar adenocarcinoma. The number of cases is small and there are no treatment guidelines. We believe that this is the first report of ductal carcinoma of the prostate with an adenomatosis polyposis coli (APC) gene mutation in Japan. Case presentation: An 85-year-old man presented with gross hematuria, and a papillary tumor in the prostatic urethra that was diagnosed as ductal carcinoma of the prostate following transurethral resection. Genetic analysis found an APC mutation with loss of heterozygosity. Immunostaining revealed focal nuclear translocation of β-catenin. APC mutations associated with loss of β-catenin degradation in the Wnt signaling pathway and result in over accumulation of β-catenin are thought to increase mortality. In this patient, β-catenin migrated into tumor cell nuclei. Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of ductal carcinoma of the prostate with an APC mutation in Japan. The development of a therapeutic Wnt inhibitor is discussed.

     View Summary

    © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. Purpose: To examine the prognosis after BCR with and without salvage therapy, including radiation and/or androgen deprivation. Methods: The study population consisted of 431 patients, all of whom underwent radical prostatectomy and developed BCR (PSA > 0.2 ng/mL). According to the two risk factors [Gleason score ≥ 8 and PSA-doubling time (DT) < 6 months], we divided the patients into two groups. The high/intermediate-risk group consisted of patients with both or one risk factor. On the other hand, patients with neither factor were in the low-risk group. We set the starting point at the timing of BCR, and the endpoints were development to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and cancer-specific death. Results: During the mean follow-up period of 8.3 years after BCR, CRPC was observed in 49 patients (11.4%), and 21 patients (4.9%) died due to prostate cancer. We first divided the 191 high/intermediate-risk patients according to the PSA level (PSA < 1.0 ng/mL, PSA 1.0–4.0, and PSA > 4.0 or no therapy) at the initiation of salvage therapy, including radiation and/or androgen deprivation. We found that delayed (PSA > 4.0 ng/mL) or no salvage therapy was significantly associated with CRPC and cancer-specific death. In the 240 low-risk patients, Kaplan–Meier curves demonstrated no significant difference in CRPC-free survival or cancer-specific survival within 10 years from the timing of BCR. Conclusions: Observation after BCR without salvage therapy or delayed administration may be an option for low-risk patients with a Gleason score ≤ 7 and PSA-DT ≥ 6 months when their life expectancy is within 10 years.

  • External validation of the "optimal PSA follow-up schedule after radical prostatectomy” in a new cohort

     View Summary

    © 2020, Japan Society of Clinical Oncology. Background: Biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP) is most commonly diagnosed by detecting an increase in asymptomatic prostate-specific antigen (PSA). We previously reported the “optimal PSA follow-up schedule after RP”. The aim of this study was to confirm the usefulness and safety of that follow-up schedule in another cohort. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinicopathological data of 798 consecutive patients who underwent radical prostatectomy between 2009 and 2017. We examined all PSA values measured during follow-up. Furthermore, we estimated the PSA value when we observed the “optimal PSA follow-up schedule” at each timing in the virtual follow-up. BCR was defined as an elevation of PSA to greater than 0.2 ng/ml, and the ideal PSA range for detection of BCR was regarded to be 0.2–0.4 ng/ml. Results: During the mean follow-up period of 5.8 years, BCR occurred in 115 (14.9%) patients and the frequency of virtual follow-up was significantly lower than the actual frequency. However, overlooking of BCR (detecting BCR when PSA exceeded 0.4 ng/ml) was observed in 17 patients, which is higher than the actual frequency of overlooking (12 patients). Therefore, we modified the follow-up schedule, which could achieve the lower follow-up frequency and a limited number of overlooking of BCR (7 patients). Conclusion: This external validation study revealed that the "modified optimal PSA follow-up schedule after RP" can reduce the frequency of PSA measurement with a limited risk of overlooking BCR.

     View Summary

    © 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Context: The oversecretion of plasma aldosterone by unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) can be cured by adrenalectomy. However, the time needed for the endocrine environment to normalize remains unclear. Objective: To clarify adequate timing for a biochemical evaluation in unilateral APA patients after adrenalectomy. Design and patients: A total of 166 unilateral APA patients were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated the plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) (pg/mL), active renin concentration (ARC) (pg/mL), aldosterone-renin ratio (ARR; PAC/ARC), serum potassium concentration and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at 1, 3 and 6 postoperation months (POM). Results: PAC was significantly lower at 1POM than at presurgery (presurgery; 407.2, 1 POM; 90.0 pg/mL, P <.001). ARC did not increase from baseline at 1POM, but significantly increased at 3POM (presurgery; 4.43, 1POM; 4.87, 3POM; 11.3 pg/mL, P <.001). ARR significantly decreased at 1POM (presurgery; 146.9, 1 POM; 26.3, P <.001) although ARC did not increase at 1POM. Among the 34 patients who had hypokalaemia presurgery, it was resolved in 28 (82%) at 1POM and in all (100%) at 3POM. The biochemical outcomes at 1POM were 131 (79%) complete, 20 (12%) partial and 15 (9%) absent successes, while at 3POM, 147 (89%) were complete, 9 (5%) partial and 10 (6%) absent. Twenty-three (14%) patients were reclassified into different biochemical outcomes between 1 and 3POM, whereas only 5 (3%) changed between 3 and 6POM. Conclusion: The appropriate timing for a biochemical evaluation of unilateral APA patients treated with laparoscopic adrenalectomy appears to be 3 months or more after surgery.
