Evaluation of the Reliability of the Determination of MisMatch Repair Deficiency Status by Endoscopic Biopsies in Oesophagus and Gastric Adenocarcinoma. (BIOPSYGAST MMR)

March 1, 2021 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Gastro-esophageal adenocarcinoma is one of the most common cancer in the world and the fourth most common cancer in France with more than 6,000 cases per year. For non-metastatic patients, a preoperative chemotherapy is recommended.

As colorectal adenocarcinomas, gastroesophageal cancers (OGC) could be caused by a failure of DNA repair related to the loss of expression of one of the DNA repair proteins (MLH1, MSH2, PMS2, MSH6) (deficient MMR (dMMR)). The prevalence of tumors with dMMR is evaluated at 14% (Choi et al, 2014; Kim et al, 2015). This proportion reaches 25% among patients over 70 years old. Evidence suggests that patients with dMMR tumors do not benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Smyth et al, 2017), which may even have a negative impact, especially in elderly patients, and which should be discussed in this particular situation. The decision of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy must be taken very quickly after the endoscopic diagnosis.

The investigators will evaluate the diagnostic performance of the determination of dMMR status by endoscopic biopsies of OGC.

Moreover, there is no clear recommendation for the determination of dMMR status in OGC especially regarding the size of the forceps to use to ensure the quality of samples and the best molecular techniques for dMMR status determination.

Methods In this prospective study, the investigators will include patients who will benefit from an upper endoscopy within 5 French hospital centers (Saint-Louis, Lariboisière, Beaujon, Bichat and Avicenne) linked to the NORDICAP network. If a suspect lesion of OGC is discovered during the gastroscopy, the endoscopist will perform at least 8 endoscopic biopsies, according to the recommendations, and by the mean of 2 kinds of forceps: standard biopsy forceps and a large capacity biopsy forceps. The clinical and follow-up data will be prospectively collected and will include demographics data, cancer stage, lymph node invasion, treatment history, recurrence and survival data. The investigators will assess MSI status by genotyping and MMR proteins expression by immunochemistry (IHC), performed, for each patient, on both biopsies and surgical tumor samples.

Expected results This study will allow us to compare diagnostic performance of endoscopic biopsies to surgical samples for the assessment of dMMR status. Likewise, the investigators will compare the diagnostic performance of the two kinds of endoscopic forceps and of IHC and genotyping for the determination of dMMR phenotype. It will enable us to establish recommendations for the benefit of gastro-enterologists and pathologists.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Sensitivity (Se) of the determination of the dMMR status by the endoscopic biopsies performed at the time of the initial high endoscopy
Time Frame: at inclusion
The sensitivity will be evaluated by comparing the endocospic result with that obtained by the analysis of the specimen considered as the reference examination.
at inclusion
Specificity (Spe) of the determination of the dMMR status by the endoscopic biopsies performed at the time of the initial high endoscopy
