Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma and Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Real-life Data on Liver Disease, Treatment and Prognosis.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) have common features and differences. This real-life study investigated their characteristics, treatment modalities, and prognoses.

Methods

This retrospective comparative study was performed in 1,075 patients seen at one tertiary center between January 2008 and December 2020. Overall survival (OS) was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Subclassification of iCCAs after histological and radiological review, and molecular profiling was performed.

Results

HCCs patients were more likely to have early-stage disease than iCCA patients. iCCA patients were more likely to be female, especially those patients without cirrhosis (43% vs. 17%). Cirrhosis was prominent among HCC patients (89% vs. 34%), but no difference in underlying liver disease among cirrhotic patients was found. OS of HCC patients was 18.4 (95% CI: 6.4, 48.3) months, that of iCCA patients was 7.0 (95% CI: 3.4, 20.1) months. OS of Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer C HCC patients was 7.8 (95% CI: 4.3, 14.2) months, that of advanced/metastatic iCCA patients was 8.5 (95% CI: 5.7, 12.3) months. In patients treated with sorafenib, OS was longer in HCC patients who received subsequent tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapies. No significant OS difference was found between iCCA patients with and without cirrhosis or according to histological subtype. A targetable molecular alteration was detected in 50% of the iCCA patients.

Conclusions

In this French series, cirrhosis was common in iCCA, which showed etiological factors comparable to those of HCC, implying a distinct oncogenic pathway. Both entities had a dismal prognosis at advanced stages. However, systemic therapies sequencing in HCC and molecular profiling in iCCA offer new insights.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) are the two most common pathology subtypes of primary liver cancer (PLC). Identifying DNA methylation biomarkers for diagnosis of PLC and further distinguishing HCC from ICC plays a vital role in subsequent treatment options selection. To obtain potential diagnostic DNA methylation sites for PLC, differentially methylated CpG (DMC) sites were first screened by comparing the methylation data between normal liver samples and PLC samples (ICC samples and HCC samples). A random forest algorithm was then used to select specific DMC sites with top Gini value. To avoid overfitting, another cohort was taken as an external validation for evaluating the area under curves (AUCs) of different DMC sites combination. A similar model construction strategy was applied to distinguish HCC from ICC. In addition, we identified DNA Methylation-Driven Genes in HCC and ICC via MethylMix method and performed pathway analysis by utilizing MetaCore. Finally, we not only performed methylator phenotype based on independent prognostic sites but also analyzed the correlations between methylator phenotype and clinical factors in HCC and ICC, respectively. To diagnose PLC, we developed a model based on three PLC-specific methylation sites (cg24035245, cg21072795, and cg00261162), whose sensitivity and specificity achieved 98.8%,94.8% in training set and 97.3%,81% in validation set. Then, to further divide the PLC samples into HCC and ICC, we established another mode through three methylation sites (cg17769836, cg17591574, and cg07823562), HCC accuracy and ICC accuracy achieved 95.8%, 89.8% in the training set and 96.8%,85.4% in the validation set. In HCC, the enrichment pathways were mainly related to protein folding, oxidative stress, and glutathione metabolism. While in ICC, immune response, embryonic hepatocyte maturation were the top pathways. Both in HCC and ICC, methylator phenotype correlated well with overall survival time and clinical factors involved in tumor progression. In summary, our study provides the biomarkers based on methylation sites not only for the diagnosis of PLC but also for distinguishing HCC from ICC.
