BACKGROUND: SMARCA4 is a component gene of the SWI/SNF (SWItch/Sucrose NonFermentable) chromatin remodeling complex; undifferentiated tumors associated with its functional deletion have been described in several organs. However, no established treatment for these tumors currently exists.
CASE: In this study, we report a case of a SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated urothelial carcinoma with high PD-L1 expression that was effectively treated with nivolumab after early relapse following treatment for non-invasive bladder cancer. The histological morphology of the rhabdoid-like undifferentiated tumor of unknown primary led us to suspect a SWI/SNF-deficient tumor, and subsequent immunostaining led to the diagnosis of a SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor. This effort also led to the identification of the developmental origin of this SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor as a non-invasive bladder cancer. We also carried out a detailed immune phenotypic assay on peripheral T cells. In brief, a phenotypic change of CD8+T cells from naive to terminally differentiated effector memory cells was observed.
CONCLUSION: Regardless of the organ of cancer origin or cancer type, SWI/SNF-deficient tumors should be suspected in undifferentiated and dedifferentiated tumors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors may be considered as a promising treatment option for this type of tumor. The pathogenesis of SMARCA4-deficient anaplastic tumors awaits further elucidation for therapeutic development.
