conferenceObject Morphological, Immunohistochemical and Cytogenetic Bone Marrow Characterization of 12 Patients with Acquired Aplastic Anemia (AAA) That Progressed to Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS)(2017) MARCHESI, Raquel; VELLOSO, Elvira; GARANITO, Marlene; SIQUEIRA, Sheila; NETO, Raymundo Azevedo; KUMEDA, Cristina; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia- Secondary myeloid neoplasms: bone marrow cytogenetic and histological features may be relevant to prognosis(2017) TANIZAWA, Roberta Sandra da Silva; ZERBINI, Maria Claudia Nogueira; ROSENFELD, Ricardo; KUMEDA, Cristina Aiko; AZEVEDO, Raymundo Soares; SIQUEIRA, Sheila Aparecida Coelho; VELLOSO, Elvira Deolinda Rodrigues PereiraAbstract Background: Secondary myeloid neoplasms comprise a group of diseases arising after chemotherapy, radiation, immunosuppressive therapy or from aplastic anemia. Few studies have addressed prognostic factors in these neoplasms. Method: Forty-two patients diagnosed from 1987 to 2008 with secondary myeloid neoplasms were retrospectively evaluated concerning clinical, biochemical, peripheral blood, bone marrow aspirate, biopsy, and immunohistochemistry and cytogenetic features at diagnosis as prognostic factors. The International Prognostic Scoring System was applied. Statistical analysis employed the Kaplan–Meier method, log-rank and Fisher's exact test. Results: Twenty-three patients (54.8%) were male and the median age was 53.5 years (range: 4–88 years) at diagnosis of secondary myeloid neoplasms. Previous diseases included hematologic malignancies, solid tumors, aplastic anemia, autoimmune diseases and conditions requiring solid organ transplantations. One third of patients (33%) were submitted to chemotherapy alone, 2% to radiotherapy, 26% to both modalities and 28% to immunosuppressive agents. Five patients (11.9%) had undergone autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The median latency between the primary disease and secondary myeloid neoplasms was 85 months (range: 23–221 months). Eight patients were submitted to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to treat secondary myeloid neoplasms. Important changes in bone marrow were detected mainly by biopsy, immunohistochemistry and cytogenetics. The presence of clusters of CD117+ cells and p53+ cells were associated with low survival. p53 was associated to a higher risk according to the International Prognostic Scoring System. High prevalence of clonal abnormalities (84.3%) and thrombocytopenia (78.6%) were independent factors for poor survival. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that cytogenetics, bone marrow biopsy and immunohistochemistry are very important prognostic tools in secondary myeloid neoplasms.
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 Claudia- Phase II trial of valproic acid combined with cisplatin-based chemoradiation in locally advanced (LA) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients (pts).(2017) MAK, Milena Perez; PASINI, Fatima Solange; DIAO, Lixia; GARCIA, Fabyane Oliveira Teixeira; TAKAHASHI, Tiago Kenji; AMADIO, Alex Vitorio; SIQUEIRA, Sheila Aparecida Coelho; SICHERO, Laura; SNITCOVSKY, Igor M.

- 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.
- Predictive features for histology of gastric subepithelial lesions(2017) SCHULZ, Ricardo Teles; FABIO, Lizandra Castilho; FRANCO, Matheus Cavalcante; SIQUEIRA, Sheila A; SAKAI, Paulo; MALUF-FILHO, FauzeABSTRACT BACKGROUND Gastric subepithelial lesion is a relatively common diagnosis after routine upper endoscopy. The diagnostic workup of an undetermined gastric subepithelial lesion should take into consideration clinical and endoscopic features. OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the association between patients' characteristics, endoscopic and echographic features with the histologic diagnosis of the gastric subepithelial lesions. METHODS This is a retrospective study with 55 patients, who were consecutively diagnosed with gastric subepithelial lesions, from October 2008 to August 2011. Patients' characteristics, endoscopic and echografic features of each gastric subepithelial lesion were analysed. Histologic diagnosis provided by EUS-guided fine needle aspiration or endoscopic/surgical resection was used as gold standard. RESULTS The probability of gastrointestinal stromal tumors to be located in the cardia was low (4.5%), while for leiomyoma it was high (>95%). In addition, there was a higher risk of gastrointestinal stromal tumors in patients older than 57 years (OR 8.9; 95% CI), with lesions ≥21 mm (OR 7.15; 95% CI), located at 4th layer (OR 18.8; 95% CI), with positive Doppler sign (OR 9; 95% CI), and irregular outer border (OR 7.75; 95% CI). CONCLUSION The location of gastric subepithelial lesions in the gastric cardia lowers the risk of gastrointestinal stromal tumors. While gastric subepithelial lesions occurring in elderly patients, located in the gastric body, with positive Doppler signal and irregular outer border increase the risk of gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
