AIMS: Analyze the differences between tumor testing efficiency in rectal (RC) and colon cancer (CC).
METHODS: We performed immunohistochemistry (IHC) for MisMatch Repair (MMR) proteins (IHC-MMR) and MicroSatellite Instability analysis (MSI) on 482 unselected primary tumors: 320 CCs and 162 RCs. Samples had proficient-IHC, deficient-IHC or borderline-IHC ("patchy" expression). MSI-H borderline-IHC tumors were considered as likely MMR-deficient. Germline testing was offered to MMR-deficient patients without BRAF mutation or MLH1 promoter hypermetilation (MLH1-Hy).
RESULTS: We identified 51/482 (10.6\%) MMR-defective tumors. Multivariable analysis demonstrated a significant correlation between tumor testing results with histotype, lymph-node involvement and tumor location. In particular, RC showed a lower MMR-deficiency rate than CC (p{\textless}0.0001). Interestingly, MLH1 loss was detected in 0\% RCs and 76.1\% CCs, with 80\% of them showing BRAF mutation/MLH1-Hy. A germline variant was detected in 12 out of 18 patients (mutation detection rate of 66.7\%).
CONCLUSION: Tumor testing results showed molecular differences between CCs and RCs, in terms of MMR proteins expression, and presence of BRAF mutation/MLH1-Hy. MSH6 variants were the most frequent ones (50\%). Although young age at diagnosis was associated with mutation detection (p = 0.045), 33.3\% of LS patients were {\textgreater}50 years.},
