description The discovery of actionable kinase gene rearrangements has revolutionized the therapeutic landscape of thyroid carcinomas. Unsolved challenges include histopathologic recognition of targetable cases, correlation between genotypes and tumor behavior, and evolving resistance mechanisms against kinase inhibitors (KI). We present 62 kinase fusion-positive thyroid carcinomas (KFTC), including 57 papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC), two poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTC), two undifferentiated thyroid carcinomas (ATC), and one primary secretory carcinoma (SC), in 57 adults and 5 adolescents. Clinical records, post-operative histology, and molecular profiles were reviewed. Histologically, all KFTC showed multinodular growth with prominent intratumoral fibrosis. Lymphovascular invasion (95%), extrathyroidal extension, gross and microscopic (63%), and cervical lymph node metastasis (79%) were common. Several kinase fusions were identified: STRN-ALK, EML4-ALK, AGK-BRAF, CUL1-BRAF, MKRN1-BRAF, SND1-BRAF, TTYH3-BRAF, EML4-MET, TFG-MET, IRF2BP2-NTRK1, PPL-NTRK1, SQSTM1-NTRK1, TPR-NTRK1, TPM3-NTRK1, EML4-NTRK3, ETV6-NTRK3, RBPMS-NTRK3, SQSTM1-NTRK3, CCDC6-RET, ERC1-RET, NCOA4-RET, RASAL2-RET, TRIM24-RET, TRIM27-RET, and CCDC30-ROS1. Individual cases also showed copy number variants of EGFR and nucleotide variants and indels in pTERT, TP53, PIK3R1, AKT2, TSC2, FBXW7, JAK2, MEN1, VHL, IDH1, PTCH1, GNA11, GNAQ, SMARCA4, and CDH1. In addition to thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine, ten patients received multi-kinase and/or selective kinase inhibitor therapy, with 6 durable, objective responses and four with progressive disease. Among 47 cases with >6 months of follow-up (median [range]: 41 [6–480] months), persistent/recurrent disease, distant metastasis and thyroid cancer-related death occurred in 57%, 38% and 6%, respectively. In summary, KFTC encompass a spectrum of molecularly diverse tumors with overlapping clinicopathologic features and a tendency for clinical aggressiveness. Characteristic histology with multinodular growth and prominent fibrosis, particularly when there is extensive lymphovascular spread, should trigger molecular testing for gene rearrangements, either in a step-wise manner by prevalence or using a combined panel. Further, our findings provide information on molecular therapy in radioiodine-refractory thyroid carcinomas.

Unsolved challenges include histopathologic recognition of targetable cases, correlation between genotypes and tumor behavior, and evolving resistance mechanisms against kinase inhibitors (KI). We present 62 kinase fusion-positive thyroid carcinomas (KFTC), including 57 papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC), two poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTC), two undifferentiated thyroid carcinomas (ATC), and one primary secretory carcinoma (SC), in 57 adults and 5 adolescents. Clinical records, post-operative histology, and molecular profiles were reviewed. Histologically, all KFTC showed multinodular growth with prominent intratumoral fibrosis. Lymphovascular invasion (95%), extrathyroidal extension, gross and microscopic (63%), and cervical lymph node metastasis (79%) were common. Several kinase fusions were identified: STRN-ALK, EML4-ALK, AGK-BRAF, CUL1-BRAF, MKRN1-BRAF, SND1-BRAF, TTYH3-BRAF, EML4-MET, TFG-MET, IRF2BP2-NTRK1, PPL-NTRK1, SQSTM1-NTRK1, TPR-NTRK1, TPM3-NTRK1, EML4-NTRK3, ETV6-NTRK3, RBPMS-NTRK3, SQSTM1-NTRK3, CCDC6-RET, ERC1-RET, NCOA4-RET, RASAL2-RET, TRIM24-RET, TRIM27-RET, and CCDC30-ROS1. Individual cases also showed copy number variants of EGFR and nucleotide variants and indels in pTERT, TP53, PIK3R1, AKT2, TSC2, FBXW7, JAK2, MEN1, VHL, IDH1, PTCH1, GNA11, GNAQ, SMARCA4, and CDH1. In addition to thyroidectomy and radioactive iodine, ten patients received multi-kinase and/or selective kinase inhibitor therapy, with 6 durable, objective responses and four with progressive disease. Among 47 cases with &gt;6 months of follow-up (median [range]: 41 [6–480] months), persistent/recurrent disease, distant metastasis and thyroid cancer-related death occurred in 57%, 38% and 6%, respectively. In summary, KFTC encompass a spectrum of molecularly diverse tumors with overlapping clinicopathologic features and a tendency for clinical aggressiveness. Characteristic histology with multinodular growth and prominent fibrosis, particularly when there is extensive lymphovascular spread, should trigger molecular testing for gene rearrangements, either in a step-wise manner by prevalence or using a combined panel. Further, our findings provide information on molecular therapy in radioiodine-refractory thyroid carcinomas.</abstract><cop>New York</cop><pub>Elsevier Inc</pub><pmid>32737449</pmid><doi>10.1038/s41379-020-0638-5</doi><tpages>15</tpages><orcidid>https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0977-530X</orcidid><orcidid>https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1036-6367</orcidid><oa>free_for_read</oa></addata></record>
