BACKGROUND: With the development of the CellSearch System, it has become possible to measure circulating tumor cell (CTC) levels with high reproducibility, and the CTC test is currently being used clinically for patients with metastatic breast cancer in the United States. It is imperative that the clinical significance of the CTC test also be examined in Japan. METHODS: Using the CellSearch System, CTC levels were evaluated in 57 healthy individuals and patients with benign breast disease; 30 patients with primary breast cancer (stages 1-3); and 38 patients with metastatic breast cancer. First, the relationship between CTC levels and the presence of metastasis was examined using a cutoff score of 2 CTCs per 7.5 ml whole blood. Then, the patients with metastatic breast cancer were divided into two groups, using a cutoff score of 5 CTCs per 7.5 ml blood, and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared in the two groups. RESULTS: When the clinical cutoff score was set at 2 CTCs per 7.5 ml blood, 0% of the healthy individuals and patients with benign breast disease (0/57), 3.3% of the patients with primary breast cancer (1/30), and 50% of the patients with metastatic breast cancer (19/38) were identified as as having 2 CTCs per 7.5 ml blood. Additionally, with a cutoff score of 5 CTCs, 11 patients were reported to have 5 or more CTCs and both PFS (P = 0.0036) and OS (P = 0.04) were worse for this patient population than for the population with fewer than 5 CTCs. CONCLUSION: As concluded in a similar clinical trial in the United States, for patients with breast cancer, measuring CTC levels can be both an accurate indicator of metastases and an important measure of patient prognosis. 相似文献

Introduction Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) correlate with worse prognosis in patients with metastatic breast cancer, but there are little
data on CTCs in operable patients. We hypothesized that primary tumor characteristics would predict the likelihood of identifying
CTCs in patients with operable breast cancer. Methods Clinical and pathological data from 92 patients with operable breast cancer were collected. The CellSearch system was used
to detect CTCs in 30 ml of peripheral blood. CTCs were defined as nucleated cells lacking CD45 but expressing cytokeratins
8, 18, or 19. Univariate analysis was performed to determine if the presence of any primary tumor characteristic was predictive
of CTCs. As a secondary objective we evaluated if nodal or bone marrow status was predictive of CTCs. Results Thirty-eight percent of patients (35/92) had evidence of CTCs, with a median number of 1.0 CTC per CTC positive patient (range
1–22). HER2 status was the sole primary tumor characteristic that reliably predicted the presence of CTCs (P = 0.01, risk ratio = 3.66). No significant association was found between the presence of CTCs and tumor size (T), estrogen
receptor (ER) status, progesterone receptor (PR) status, grade, histologic type, degree of nodal involvement (N), lymphovascular
invasion (LVI) or Ki-67 proliferation. Bone marrow micrometastases were found in 17/64 (26.6%) of the patients but did not
correlate with the presence of CTCs. Conclusion HER2 status was the only primary tumor characteristic that correlated with the presence of CTCs. Long-term follow-up will
be required to determine the significance of CTCs in operable breast cancer.

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women, and clinicians have long recognized its heterogeneity. Its detection and treatment in early stages allow for reduction of mortality. Despite the advances and new strategies for combining surgical, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy options, however, the percentage of patients developing metastases and advanced stages remains high. Even though serum tumor markers have been used for the early diagnosis of metastases, their systematic determination has not had an effect on survival. Methods that are more reliable are needed to detect metastases earlier than with the common clinical methods and thus start treatment before overt relapse. Early indicators of response or resistance to treatment are also an issue in clinical practice. Imaging techniques are time consuming, and it is difficult to detect changes that indicate response limited to therapy, and approaches to defining changes in tumor mass are time and resource consuming. In contrast, detection of circulating tumor cells (CTC) could be a useful tool in early detection of relapse and response to systemic chemotherapy. Extremely sensitive techniques are available that are easily applied to peripheral blood samples, which might provide enormous research possibilities in this area. 相似文献

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be enumerated using CellSearch, but not all breast cancer subtypes, specifically those with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) characteristics, sufficiently express the enrichment (EpCAM) and selection (CK8/18/19) markers used in this method. While CD146 can detect EpCAM-negative CTCs, we here evaluated the value of various cytokeratins and CD49f to detect CK8/18/19-negative CTCs. The tested cytokeratins provided no substantial benefit, but adding CD49f to CK8/18/19 as a selection marker resulted in improved recovery of normal-like cell lines. 相似文献

BackgroundEnumeration of circulating tumor cells (CTC) from whole blood permits monitoring of patients with breast carcinoma. Analysis of apoptosis & Bcl-2 expression in CTC might add additional prognostic and predictive information. We estimated the degree of these markers in CTC from patients being treated for metastatic breast cancer.MethodsEighty-three evaluable patients initiating a new therapy for metastatic breast cancer were enrolled. Whole blood was collected at baseline, at one of three short term time windows (24, 48, or 72 h) after initiating treatment, and at first follow-up (3–5 weeks). CTC were isolated, enumerated, and expression of M30 and Bcl2 was determined using the CellSearch® System.ResultsAt baseline, window, and 3–5 weeks post-treatment, 41/80 (51%), 40/80 (50%) and 21/75 (28%) patients had ≥5 CTC, respectively. At baseline, the proportion of CTC-apoptosis (M30) was inversely correlated with CTC number, and modestly inversely correlated with CTC-Bcl-2. As expected, higher CTC levels at baseline or first follow-up were associated with worse prognosis. Surprisingly, in patients with elevated CTC, higher levels of CTC-apoptosis were associated with worse prognosis, while higher CTC-Bcl-2 levels correlated with better outcomes.ConclusionsCTC apoptosis and expression of Bcl-2 can be analytically determined in patients with metastatic breast cancer and may have biological and clinical implications. Characterization of CTC for these and other markers could further increase the utility of CTC monitoring patients in clinical investigations of new anti-neoplastic agents. 相似文献

Background
Finding a clinical tool to improve the risk stratification and identifying those colorectal cancer patients with an increased risk of recurrence is of great importance. The presence of circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood can be a strong marker of poor prognosis in patients with metastatic disease, but the prognostic role of CTC in non-metastatic colorectal cancer is less clear. The aim of this review is to examine the possible clinical significance of circulating tumor cells in non-metastatic colorectal cancer (TNM-stage I-III) with the primary focus on detection methods and prognosis.Methods
The PubMed and Cochrane database and reference lists of relevant articles were searched for scientific literature published in English from January 2000 to June 2010. We included studies with non-metastatic colorectal cancer (TNM-stage I-III) and CTC detected pre- and/or post-operatively in peripheral blood.Results
Nine studies qualified for further analyses. Detection rates of CTC in peripheral blood of patients with non-metastatic colorectal cancer varied from 4% to 57%. Seven studies applied RT-PCR and two studies used immunocytochemical methods. Seven studies found the presence of CTC to be a prognostic marker of poor disease-free survival.Conclusion
The presence of CTC in peripheral blood is a potential marker of poor disease-free survival in patients with non-metastastic colorectal cancer. The low abundance of CTC in non-metastatic colorectal cancer requires very sensitive and specific detection methods. An international consensus on choice of detection method and markers, is warranted before incorporating CTC into risk stratification in the clinical setting. 相似文献12.

The CD44+/CD24−/low and ALDH1+ cell phenotypes are associated with stemness and enhanced tumorigenic potential in breast cancer. We assessed the expression of CD44, CD24 and ALDH1 on tumor cells circulating in the peripheral blood (CTCs) of patients with metastatic breast cancer using triple-marker immunofluorescence microscopy. Among a total of 1439 CTCs identified in 20 (66.7%) out of 30 patients, 35.2% had the stem-like/tumorigenic phenotype CD44+/CD24−/low, whereas 17.7% of the CTCs analyzed in seven patients, were ALDH1high/CD24−/low. In conclusion, we report the existence of a subpopulation of CTCs with putative stem cell progenitor phenotypes in patients with metastatic breast cancer. 相似文献

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs): Detection methods and their clinical relevance in breast cancer 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The enumeration of circulating tumor cells has long been regarded as an attractive diagnostic tool, as circulating tumor cells are thought to reflect aggressiveness of the tumor and may assist in therapeutic decisions in patients with solid malignancies.However, implementation of this assay into clinical routine has been cumbersome, as a validated test was not available until recently. Circulating tumor cells are rare events which can be detected specifically only by using a combination of surface and intracellular markers, and only recently a number of technical advances have made their reliable detection possible. Most of these new techniques rely on a combination of an enrichment and a detection step.This review addresses the assays that have been described so far in the literature, including the enrichment and detection steps and the markers used in these assays. We have focused on breast cancer as most clinical studies on CTC detection so far have been done in these patients. 相似文献

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are present in the peripheral blood, and play an important role in the recurrence and metastasis of lung cancer. As the researches about CTCs and targeted therapy move along, it is found that CTCs can be used as a "liquid" tumor tissue to guide clinical treatment and have a certain significance in the clinical staging and prognosis evaluation of lung cance. 相似文献
