C.; BENEDETTI, Anna Flavia F.; AFONSO, Ana Caroline F.; PEREIRA, Maria Adelaide A.; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia N.; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; YAMAUCHI, Fernando; SOARES, Silvia C.; SROUGI, Victor; TANNO, Fabio Y.; CHAMBO, Jose L.; I, Roberto Lopes; DENES, Francisco T.; HOFF, Ana O.; LATRONICO, Ana Claudia; MENDONCA, Berenice B.; V, Maria Candida B. Fragoso; ALMEIDA, Madson Q.Objective Few and conflicting reports have characterized the genetics of paediatric pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs). This study aimed to investigate the clinical and genetic features of Brazilian children with PPGL. Patients and Methods This study included 25 children (52% girls) with PPGL. The median age at diagnosis was 15 years (4-19). The median time of follow-up was 145 months. The genetic investigation was performed by Sanger DNA sequencing, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification and/or target next-generation sequencing panel. Results Of the 25 children with PPGL, 11 (44%), 4 (16%), 2 (8%), 1 (4%) and 7 (28%) had germline VHL pathogenic variants, SDHB, SDHD, RET and negative genetic investigation, respectively. Children with germline VHL missense pathogenic variants were younger than those with SDHB or SDHD genetic defects [median (range), 12 (4-16) vs. 15.5 (14-19) years; P = .027]. Moreover, 10 of 11 cases with VHL pathogenic variants had bilateral pheochromocytoma (six asynchronous and four synchronous). All children with germline SDHB pathogenic variants presented with abdominal paraganglioma (one of them malignant). The two cases with SDHD pathogenic variants presented with head and neck paraganglioma. Among the cases without a genetic diagnosis, 6 and 2 had pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma, respectively. Furthermore, metastatic PPGL was diagnosed in four (16%) of 25 PPGL. Conclusions Most of the paediatric PPGL were hereditary and multifocal. The majority of the affected genes belong to pseudohypoxic cluster 1, with VHL being the most frequently mutated. Therefore, our findings impact surgical management and surveillance of children with PPGL.

conferenceObject Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma, NOS: Prognostic Significance of Immunohistochemical Algorithms and Biomarkers in Newly Diagnosed Patients Treated With Rituximab Plus a CHOP-Like Regimen(2015) PAULA, Henrique de; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; PEREIRA, Juliana; LAGE, Luis Alberto; XAVIER, Flavia; COSTA, Renata; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia- Interim fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose PET-computed tomography and cell of origin by immunohistochemistry predicts progression-free and overall survival in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients in the rituximab era(2016) COSTA, Renata de Oliveira; HALLACK NETO, Abrahao; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; LAGE, Luis Alberto de Padua Covas; PAULA, Henrique M. de; COUTINHO, Arthur M.; PEREIRA, JulianaObjectiveThe aim of this study was to analyze the prognostic value of the interim PET (iPET)-computed tomography (CT) (iPET-CT) after two cycles of immunochemotherapy with the R-CHOP protocol in patients with diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (DLBCL) treated with a curative intent in combination with the neoplastic cell origin defined by Hans's immunohistochemstry algorithm followed in a reference center for cancer treatment in Brazil.Materials and methodsWe prospectively evaluated 147 DLBCL patients treated with R-CHOP-21 to assess the value of the International Prognostic Index, iPET-CT, and cell of origin by immunohistochemistry as prognostic markers in the rituximab era. Fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose PET-CT was performed after two cycles (iPET-CT) and at the end of treatment in 111 patients. Lymphoma cases were categorized into germinal center (GC) and nongerminal center subtypes by immunohistochemistry according to Hans's algorithm.ResultsThe median age of GC-DLBCL patients (52.7 years) was lower than that of nongerminal center-DLBCL patients (59.4 years) (P=0.021); in addition, it was lower in patients with negative iPET-CT findings (52.7 years) versus positive findings (59.4 years) (P=0.031). The overall survival at 48 months was 100% for iPET-CT-negative GC-DLBCL patients and 61.2% for iPET-CT-positive GC-DLBCL patients (P=0.002). Progression-free survival at 30 months was 100% for iPET-CT-negative GC-DLBCL patients and 60.3% for iPET-CT-positive GC-DLBCL patients (P=0.001).ConclusionWe conclude that iPET-CT associated with cell origin identified a very good prognostic group in DLBCL patients treated with R-CHOP.

conferenceObject High Proliferative Index in Acquired Aplastic Anemia (AAA) Bone Marrow Does Not Predict Progression to Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS)(2017) MARCHESI, Raquel; VELLOSO, Elvira; GARANITO, Marlene; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; NETO, Raymundo Azevedo; KUMEDA, Cristina; ZERBINI, Maria ClaudiaconferenceObject OCT1 gene Expression Is an Independent Prognostic Factor in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma(2014) GOUVEIA, Gisele Rodrigues; FERREIRA, Suzete Cleusa; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; PEREIRA, Juliana- Response to Chemotherapy and Prognosis in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer With DNA Deficient Mismatch Repair(2017) ALEX, Alexandra Khichfy; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; COUDRY, Renata; SANTOS, Juliana; ALVES, Michel; HOFF, Paulo M.; RIECHELMANN, Rachel P.This study suggests that the DNA deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) phenotype is predictive of resistance to oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy in metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients with dMMR had numerically lower response rate compared with patients with proficient MMR (11.7% vs. 28.6%; P = .088). Furthermore, dMMR was associated with BRAF mutations and was factor of poor prognostic, particularly in sporadic versus Lynch-related tumors. Background: DNA deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) genes are associated with microsatellite instability and good prognosis in early-stage colorectal cancer (CRC). However dMMR is rare in metastatic CRC (mCRC) and little is known about its influence on treatment response rate (RR). The primary objective of this study was to compare the RR of patients with mCRC according to dMMR status. Methods: This was a retrospective study that compared the RR by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors 1.1 criteria in patients with mCRC treated with chemotherapy according to dMMR status. All digital images were retrieved for RR evaluation by a single radiologist blinded to dMMR results. dMMR was defined as loss of immunohistochemistry expression of at least 1 of the MMR genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, or PMS2). Cases were dMMR patients, and controls were proficient MMR (pMMR) patients (1: 2 fashion). Based on clinical and molecular features, dMMR patients were classified as probable Lynch or sporadic. Results: From January 2009 to January 2013, 762 out of 1270 patients were eligible and screened for dMMR: n = 27 (3.5%) had dMMR mCRC and n = 735 (96.5%) had pMMR mCRC. Given the rarity, 14 dMMR cases outside the inclusion period were included (total 41 dMMR cases) and 84 controls (pMMR). By intention-to-treat analysis, considering all patients who received at least 1 dose of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy (N dMMR = 34), those with dMMR had lower RR compared with those with pMMR (RR, 11.7% vs. 28.6%; odds ratio, 0.33; 95% confidence interval, 0.08-1.40; P = .088); patients with probable Lynch-related mCRC presented higher RR than subjects with probable sporadic dMMR (22.2% vs. 0%). dMMR was associated with BRAF mutations and poor prognosis, particularly in the sporadic subgroup (median survival, 29.8 vs. 5.9 months; P = .025). Conclusion: This study suggests that the dMMR phenotype is predictive of resistance to oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. Apparently, such resistance is more pronounced in the sporadic dMMR phenotype, suggesting biological heterogeneity within the dMMR mCRC subgroup.
