3 OBJECTIVES To understand the limitations of cytomorphological features in achieving the specific diagnosis To know the role of ancillary studies in cytological diagnoses of lung and mediastinal neoplasms To understand the implications of delivering information of specific cellular differentiation in lung cancer oncology practice

4 Lung Tumours Central (1) Squamous cell Carcinoma (70%- 75%) Small cell Carcinoma (90%-95%) Adenocarcinoma (5%-10%) Typical carcinoid Peripheral (2) Adenocarcinoma (80%) Squamous cell carcinoma (25%- 30%) Atypical carcinoid SCLC (5%-10%) Metastatic (Mostly), multiple 1 Pleural (3) Adenocarcinoma (rare) Mesothelioma 3 2

5 TRENDING CYTOLOGY Molecular era: Shift in oncology practice and expectations Diagnostic pathway: less invasive, cost effective, reliable, optimal Cytomorphological features: Reliability for specific cellular differentiation Ancillary studies: Knowledge and interpretation skills Cytology Radiology Correlation: Understanding and integration Ground glass, spiculated, circumscribed Solid, cavitary, consolidation Solitary, multiple, location Specific diagnoses: Translations and implications

6 CYTOLOGY: IMPLICATIONS Standard chemotherapy ADC more responsive to Gemcitabine + Docetaxel Non-ADC more responsive to Cisplatin + Docetaxel Targeted chemotherapies VEGF inhibitor (i.e Bevacizumab): Contraindicated in SQCC - EGFR mutation (i.e. Erlotinib, Gefitinib): Adenocarcinoma (race, age, gender, smoking status) - ALK gene-rearrangement (i.e. Crizotinib): Adenocarcinoma - ROS gene-rearrangement (i.e. Crizotinib): Adenocarcinoma Predictor and prognostic markers Type of adenocarcinomas have higher frequency of gene aberrations (mucinous and signet ring for ALK gene) Patient management: Response and outcome Patient quality of life: Therapy administration and toxicity

7 CYTOLOGY: EVOLUTION Sekhon et al. Thorac Surg Clin. 2013;23:163-78

8 CYTOLOGICAL AND SMALL BIOPSY DIAGNOSIS Adenocarcinoma: features suggestive of lepidic growth pattern (note: invasive component cannot be excluded) 2004 WHO AND 2011 ADENOCARCINOMA CLASSIFICATION Non-mucinous AIS(<3 cm), MIS(<3 cm with <0.5 cm invasion) and lepidic predominant (>3 cm) Mucinous adenocarcinoma (Describe pattern if identifiable) Mucinous AIS, MISand predominant pattern (lepidic, acinar, papillary, micropapillary, solid) Adenocarcinoma: features suggestive of identifiable growth pattern Adenocarcinoma with fetal pattern Adenocarcinoma with colloid pattern Adenocarcinoma (pattern) with signet ring or clear cell features Non-small carcinoma, favour adenocarcinoma (immunophenotypically consistent with adenocarcinoma) Squamous cell carcinoma (morphologically squamous cell differentiation present) Non-small carcinoma, favour squamous cell carcinoma (immunophenotypically consistent with squamous cell carcinoma) Predominant growth pattern (acinar, papillary, micropapillary and solid) Fetal Adenocarcinoma 8Mucinous or colloid adenocarcinoma Signet ring or clear cell adenocarcinoma Mostly solid pattern Squamous cell carcinoma (papillary, clear cell, small cell, basiloid variants) Squamous cell carcinoma

9 CYTOLOGICAL AND SMALL Bx DIAGNOSIS Small cell carcinoma Non-small cell carcinoma, not otherwise specified (NOS) (no clear immunohistochemical profile to favour adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma) Non-small cell carcinoma with neuroendocrine morphology (positive NE stains) Non-small cell carcinoma with neuroendocrine morphology (negative NE stains) Note: LCNEC suspected but immunohistochemical stains (IHC) failed to demonstrate NE differentiation 1. Non-small cell carcinoma with squamous and adenocarcinoma morphology 2. Non-small cell carcinoma, NOS (IHC demonstrates squamous cell and adenocarcinoma differentiation) Comment: It could represent adenosquamous carcinoma 2004 WHO AND 2011 ADENOCARCINOMA CLASSIFICATION Small cell carcinoma Large cell carcinoma Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) Large cell carcinoma with NE morphology (LCNEC) Adenosquamous carcinoma Poorly differentiated non-small cell carcinoma with spindle and/or giant cell carcinoma (mention if squamous cell or adenocarcinoma differentiation present) Sarcomatoid carcinoma Travis W et al. J Thorac Oncol. 2011;6:244-85

10 CYTOLOGY: TISSUE ISSUE EBUS (lymph nodes for staging, central tumours, mediastinal tumours) EUS (lymph nodes not accessible with EBUS) Image-guided FNA (lung, pleural, chest wall, mediastinal tumours) Bronchial brush and wash Broncho-alveolar lavage Effusions Adequate specimen is the key!!!!

11 FNA Requisition and ROSE Two extra passes submitted in formalin for cell block after establishing rapid on site adequacy (ROSE)

12 LUNG CYTOLOGY: FNA Sekhon et al. Thorac Surg Clin. 2013;23:163-78

13 ADC and SQCC Smear CB

14 Squamous cell carcinoma Smear CB CK5/6 P40

15 Adenocarcinoma Smear CB TTF-1 Surfactant-A

16 NSCLC: Cytology +/- IHC IHC is not 100% sensitive and specific Ancillary studies!!! SQCC: p40/p63+, CK5/6+, CK7+/-, TTF-1- ADC: p40/p63-, CK5/6-, CK7+, TTF-1+/- Diagnosis of SQCC and ADC ( and ) (R. Ocque et al., Am J Clin Pathol. 2011; 136:81-7) Cytomorphology alone: 75.1% vs 40.7% Increase in IHC use: 11% to 89% vs 14.1% to 85.9% Increase in diagnostic accuracy: ADC: 56% -> 83.2 SQCC : 77% -> 74%

17 ?: Case 1 Case 2

18 Dual IHC: Case 1 Adenocarcinoma TTF-1 + Napsin P63 + CK5/6 TTF-1 + Napsin

19 Dual IHC: Case 2 Squamous cell Carcinoma P63 + CK5/6 TTF-1 + Napsin P63 + CK5/6

20 Utility of IHC in NSCLC Immunostains Adenocarcinoma Squamous cell carcinoma TTF % 6% Napsin-A 84% 21% Surfactant-A 54% 2% P40/p63 0% / 23-32% 96%/ 97% CK5/ % 93% Dual stains help conserve tissue for molecular tests

21 CYTOLOGY: IHC Panel (Canadian consensus recommendations, 2011) H&E TTF-1 p63/p40 CK5 ADC SQCC Mucin stains: Only 30% ADC contain mucin vacuoles

22 CYTOLOGY: NSCLC IHC Diffuse TTF-1 staining more specific for adenocarcinoma Minimal overlap between TTF-1 and p63+ck5/6 (Rekhtman et al., Mod Pathol. 2011; 24: ) Small number of adenocarcinomas are positive for p63, CK5/6 and 34BE12 34BE12 is not a good marker for squamous cell as P63- P63+ P63++ TTF-1++ ADC (84% any) ADC ADC TTF-1+ ADC ADC (6%) SQCC (3%) TTF-1- ADC (10%) INDET (1% + CK5/6 SQCC) SQCC (96%) (Rekhtman et al., Mod Pathol. 2011; 24: )

50 Question: 1. Treatment with Bevacizumab is contra-indicated in this patient 2. ALK stain to determine ALK gene-rearrangement and EGFR mutation analysis should be performed for treatment with Gefitinib or Crizotinib 3. This neuroendocrine carcinoma and the patient would need radiation therapy and surgery 4. This is metastasis from the laryngeal carcinoma
