Tumor mutation burden-assisted risk stratification for papillary thyroid cancer

Purpose Although papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has a low mortality rate, the rate of recurrence remains relatively high. This study aims to develop a molecular signature to predict the recurrence of PTC. Methods A total of 333 PTC patients’ data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were included. We...

Zusammenfassung:Purpose Although papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has a low mortality rate, the rate of recurrence remains relatively high. This study aims to develop a molecular signature to predict the recurrence of PTC. Methods A total of 333 PTC patients’ data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were included. We calculated tumor mutation burden (TMB) and analyzed the mutation status of BRAF and TERT promoter. Results Tumor recurrence occurred in 17 of 263 cases in TMB-L patients versus 14 of 70 cases in TMB-H patients (hazard ratio [HR], 3.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.75–7.21; P
