Abstract:
Local recurrence is a serious complication of breast carcinoma that reduces quality of life and influences prognosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether local recurrences of breast carcinoma are genetically related to the primary tumours. Forty cases of locally recurrent breast carcinomas (median onset: 3.6 years after primary surgery) were analysed: 22 patients had undergone breast-conserving therapy and 18 mastectomy. Eighteen microsatellites on chromosomes 2p, 3p, 5q, 10q, 11p, 11q, 13q, 17q, 17p, 18p were amplified by PCR using fluorescent-labelled primers, automatically detected after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analysed for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) or microsatellite instability (MSI). Follow-up data were available for 39 cases with a median value of 89 months. All LOH and MSI found in the primary tumours were also present in the corresponding recurrences, indicating that they are genetically related to the primary tumours and not secondary malignancies in the same breast. MSI was found in three cases, of which one harboured MSI at more than two loci. The median value of LOH per case was significantly higher in the recurrent (four per case) compared to the primary tumours (two per case; p < 0.001, Mann-Whitney test), reflecting the genotype of tumour progression. Early local recurrence was associated with specific LOH for TP53.15 (p = 0.018, log-rank test) in the primary tumours. LOH on D13S1699 or D17S855 was associated with lymph node metastases (p = 0.024 and p = 0.019, respectively; chi-square test). In addition, tumour grade, lack of oestrogen or progesterone receptor expression, young patient age and early appearance of local recurrence significantly correlated with poor survival. The development of local recurrence despite clear resection margins may result from residual DCIS distant from the invasive carcinoma, homing of circulating tumour cells, or genetically altered, histologically normal breast tissue not immediately adjacent to the invasive carcinoma.
