OBJECTIVE: To investigate the potential role of interleukin 4 (IL-4), interleukin 10 (IL-10) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) as serum biomarkers of persistent/recurrent disease in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with/without Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT).
METHODS: Eighty consecutive patients (64 F/16 M, 43.2 ± 12.7 years) with PTC and 40 (37 F/3 M, 40.6 ± 12.3 years) with papillary thyroid carcinoma associated with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (PTC + HT) were evaluated before radioiodine therapy. A control group of 20 patients with HT without thyroid cancer (18 F/2 M, 47.3 ± 2.8 years) was included in the study for the comparison of cytokine levels.
RESULTS: No meaningful differences were found in clinical outcomes between PTC and PTC + HT groups (47.5% vs. 45% persistent/recurrent disease). Serum IL-4, IL-10 and hs-CRP levels were higher in patients with persistent/recurrent disease compared to those without recurrence (p < 0.001). IL-4, IL-10 and hs-CRP were also found in substantially higher concentrations in PTC + HT patients with persistent/recurrent disease than in patients with HT or PTC (with or without recurrence) (p < 0.01). Positive correlations were observed between IL-4, IL-10, hs-CRP and thyroglobulin (Tg) (r between 0.48 and 0.56, p < 0.005) or antithyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb) (r between 0.63 and 0.80, p < 0.002) in PTC and PTC + HT patients with persistent/recurrent disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Increased levels of serum IL-4, IL-10 and hs-CRP are associated with persistent/recurrent disease in PTC and PTC + HT patients. Our results suggest that these biomarkers might be used to improve patient stratification according to the risk of recurrence, especially in patients with PTC + HT, where Tg levels are not reliable due to presence of TgAb.
