PURPOSE: An inherited basis for presumed sporadic neuroendocrine tumor (NET) has been suggested by evidence of familial clustering of NET and a higher incidence of second malignancies in patients and families with NET. To further investigate a potential heritable basis for sporadic neuroendocrine tumors, we performed multigene platform germline analysis to determine the frequency of hereditary susceptibility gene variants in a cohort of patients with sporadic small intestine NET (SI-NET).
METHODS: We performed a multigene platform germline analysis with Invitae's 83-gene, next-generation sequencing panel using DNA from 88 individuals with SI-NET from a clinically annotated database of patients with NET evaluated at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) who are considered high risk for inherited variants. Additionally, we evaluated the prevalence of pathogenic variants in an unselected cohort of patients with SI-NET who underwent testing with Invitae.
RESULTS: Of the 88 patients in the DFCI cohort, a pathogenic germline variant was identified in eight (9%) patients. In an independent cohort of 120 patients with SI-NET, a pathogenic germline variant was identified in 13 (11%) patients. Pathogenic variants were identified in more than one patient in the following genes: ATM, RAD51C, MUTYH, and BLM. Somatic testing of tumors from the DFCI cohort was suboptimal because of insufficient coverage of all targeted exons, and therefore, analysis was limited.
CONCLUSION: We demonstrate a 9%-11% incidence of pathogenic germline variants in genes associated with inherited susceptibility for malignancy not previously described in association with SI-NET. The association of these germline variants with neuroendocrine carcinogenesis and risk is uncertain but warrants further characterization.
