Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of oncology. More particularly, the subject of the present invention is a method for in vitro diagnosis of colorectal cancer in a human patient by determining the presence of Aminoacylase 1 in a biological sample derived from this patient, said method being able to be used both in diagnosis early, screening, therapeutic follow-up, prognosis, as in the diagnosis of relapses in the context of colorectal cancer.
- CRC Colorectal cancer
- the test is also not very specific.
- the appearance of blood in the stool can be related to a non-tumoral condition: recto-colic haemorrhage, haemorrhoids, fistulas, ...
- a colonoscopy investigation must be performed with the disadvantages described below.
- Hemoccult® are delicate to interpret, so they must be read in specialized centers by qualified and competent personnel.
- InSure TM marketed by Enterix Inc., can detect 87% of patients with CRC and 47% of those with precancerous polyps. It is a test for the detection of human hemoglobin in the stool, and more particularly of the globin portion of this molecule.
- a second screening strategy is the systemic realization of a colonoscopy after 50 years, which in theory makes it possible to reduce colorectal cancer mortality. But the acceptability of this test in healthy subjects is too low for a screening policy using endoscopy to reduce mortality (there is a compliance around 2% for colonoscopy in European countries having implemented this screening strategy). There is a significant risk (1% c) of perforation and hemorrhage of the colon and death (1/10 000), as well as a high cost for public health. In addition, colonoscopy requires a very demanding pre-colonic preparation, which largely explains the poor compliance.
- Immunoassay-measurable tumor markers have been described for a long time in colorectal cancer. These include carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CA19-9.
- CEA carcinoembryonic antigen
- CA19-9 CA19-9.
- ACE is used for monitoring. It can not be used for screening or early diagnosis of colorectal cancer because its sensitivity and specificity are insufficient. Indeed, this marker is expressed by other types of cancer, and in benign pathologies. Nevertheless, it is possible to gain in sensitivity without losing specificity by associating with the ACE another tumor marker such as CA19-9 or CA72-4.
- CA 19-9 The causes of physiological variations of CA 19-9 are rare but others Benign (hepatobiliary, pancreatic) or malignant diseases can induce elevation of CA19-9. This marker, taken in isolation, is therefore not of interest for diagnosis. Nevertheless, its serum concentration being correlated with the size of the tumor and the presence of metastases, it can also allow therapeutic monitoring or early detection of recurrence.
- Colopath® / ColorectAlert MD marketed by Ambrilia, is a rapid screening test and minimally invasive to the CCR.
- Colopath® detects a plasmalogen (complex lipid class part of phospholipids) in rectal mucus individuals with colorectal pathology
- ColorectAlert MD detects T-antigen, a complex sugar in the rectal mucus.
- the Colopath® / ColorectAlert MD involves rectal mucus application on a test strip and the positive or negative result is based on a Schiff reaction.
- Ambrilia has studied 1787 subjects and demonstrated that Colopath® / ColorectAlert MD detects 54% of cases of early stage colorectal cancer and 49% of all stages.
- COLARIS marketed by Myriad Genetics, is a blood test for mutations in the MLH1 and MSH2 genes for screening non-polyposis hereditary colon cancers (HNPCC syndrome).
- HNPCC syndrome non-polyposis hereditary colon cancers
- DR-70® marketed by AMDL, is a screening test for various types of cancers (lung, colon, breast, liver, stomach, ). It is therefore not specific to the JRC. Its principle is based on the double sandwich ELISA technique (DR-70 antigen assay). The revelation is by enzymatic reaction (antibodies coupled with biotin and streptavidin). A color reaction indicates the presence of cancer.
- the present invention firstly relates to a method for in vitro diagnosis of colorectal cancer by determining the presence of Aminoacylase 1 in biological samples from patients suspected of having colorectal cancer, and preferably distant tumors.
- the method of the invention thus makes it possible to specifically and early diagnosis of colorectal cancer by a simple test consisting in finding the presence of Aminoacylase 1 in a biological sample taken from a patient, preferably remote from the potential tumor.
- a simple test consisting in finding the presence of Aminoacylase 1 in a biological sample taken from a patient, preferably remote from the potential tumor.
- the Applicants have unexpectedly shown that colonic tumors not only specifically secreted Aminoacylase 1 but especially released out of the cancerous tissue, as will be demonstrated in more detail below, and that its concentration in the biological sample in which the method of the invention is carried out was increased compared to the reference values determined for healthy patients.
- the determination of the presence of Aminoacylase 1 in a biological sample, remote or otherwise from the tumor then makes it possible to conclude that the pathology is sought.
- One of the advantages of the method of the invention therefore lies in the possibility of using a sample remote from the potential tumor as a diagnostic sample, which allows a simple and non-invasive diagnosis whereas a tissue diagnosis requires a biopsy taken invasively.
- tissue markers for example on a tissue section (immunohistochemistry)
- the Aminoacylase 1 (Swiss Prot Q03154 N 0 , also known as EC 3.5.1.14, N-Acyl-L-Amino-Acid Amidohydrolase or ACY-I) marker is part of the Aminoacylase family. These are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acylated amino acids to fatty acids and amino acids 3 .
- An immunochemical assay of the enzymatic activity Aminoacylase was developed as early as 1975 by K. Lorentz et al. 4 and has been used to assay different tissues and serums 5 . The study showed an increase in Aminoacylase activity in cases of liver diseases but not in cases of colon cancer.
- the Aminoacylase 1 gene has been identified on the chromosome 3p21.1 6 .
- the 3p21.1 region is reduced to homozygosity in small cell lung cancer, and in this case the expression of Aminoacylase is repressed or undetectable 7 .
- S. Balabanov et al. 8 showed that the expression of Aminoacylase was repressed in case of kidney cancer.
- Aminoacylase 1 has never been described as being useful as a marker in the context of colorectal cancer and especially as being able to be assayed in a biological sample remote from the tumor.
- determining the presence of the tumor marker is meant the determination of the presence of the protein, its messenger RNA, or the detection of modification on its gene in the coding or non-coding sequences, such as methylations.
- Release by colonic tumors means the active or passive secretion or the release, whatever the mechanism, of the tumor marker by the tumor cells themselves or by neighboring non-tumor cells following lesions or modifications. of cellular phenotype resulting from tumor development.
- biological sample in which the method of the invention is implemented is meant any biological sample capable of containing the tumor marker of interest.
- a biological sample that is not distant from the tumor mention may be made of solid samples such as tissue originating from the tumor, biopsies of this tumor, lymph nodes, metastases of the patient, and cells that have been purified from these solid samples.
- biological samples remote from the tumor include biological fluids such as whole blood or its derivatives, for example serum or plasma, urine, saliva and effusions, bone marrow and stool , and the cells purified from these liquid samples. Blood or its derivatives as well as stool, effusions and purified cells are preferred from these liquid samples.
- the method of the invention can be improved by detecting, in addition to Aminoacylase 1, at least one other tumor marker, where appropriate also released by colonic tumors out of the cancerous tissues.
- the combination of at least two markers makes it possible to improve the specificity and the sensitivity of the diagnostic test for colorectal cancer.
- another object of the invention also consists in determining the presence of at least one other tumor marker chosen from the following two groups of markers, considered alone or in combination:
- Group A Leukocyte Elastase Inhibitor, Ezrin, Liver Fatty Acid-Binding Protein, Intestinal Fatty Acid-Binding Protein, Apolipoprotein AI,
- Apolipoprotein AII and Plastin-I are new markers identified by the Applicant.
- Group B markers with additional diagnostic interest, namely: Beta 2 Microglobulin, Proteasome 2OS, Galectin-3, L-Lactate Dehydrogenase Chain B, Calreticulin, Regenerating Islet-Derived Protein 3
- Defensin-A5 detection of DNA fragments in blood with specific alterations of their methylation profile, such as for example the methylated DNA of the AXL4 gene (Aristaless-like Homeobox-4 Gene Methylation) or the methylated DNA of the Septin-9 gene, the detection of specific alterations of DNA fragments in the stool as specific mutations in the stool DNA or specific alterations of the DNA methylation pattern in the stool, the detection of human hemoglobin in the stool.
- the method of the invention can therefore be improved by detecting at least two markers, one being Aminoacylase 1, the other being another tumor marker selected from Group A, namely: Leucocyte Elastase Inhibitor, Ezrine, Liver Fatty Acid-Binding Protein, Intestinal Fatty Acid-Binding Protein, Apolipoprotein AI, Apolipoprotein AII and Plastin-I.
- tumor marker protein, messenger RNA or specific modifications of the corresponding gene, such as mutations or methylations.
- the Leucocyte Elastase Inhibitor tumor marker (N 0 Swiss Prot P30740, also called LEI, Serpin Bl, Monocyte / neutrophil elastase inhibitor, M / NEI or EI) was sequenced in 1992 9 .
- LEI specifically inhibits proteases having Elastase or Chymotrypsin-like properties by formation of non-dissociable complexes under the action of SDS 10 .
- LEI inhibits three major proteases produced by neutrophils: leukocyte elastase, proteinase-3 and cathepsin G. These proteases allow the immune system to defend the body by proteolysis of extracellular or phagocytic substrates.
- this protein is a good marker in biological samples from a patient with colorectal cancer, said samples being remote or not from the tumor.
- the Ezrin marker (N 0 Swiss Prot P15311, also called p81, Cytovillin or Villin-2) is a protein providing the link between the cell membrane and the Actin filaments of the cytoskeleton of the cell, in particular in the microvilli of intestinal epithelial cells. 11 . WG Jiang and S. Hiscox 12 have shown that interleukins IL-2, IL-8, IL-10, ... could inhibit the expression of Ezrin in the human colorectal cancer cell line, HT29. The same authors 13 have shown that inhibition of Ezrin expression in colorectal cancer cell lines, HT1 and HRT18, reduced cell adhesion and increased cell mobility and invasive behavior.
- Ezrin regulates cell / cell and cell / matrix adhesions by interacting with cellular adhesion molecules, E-cadherin and beta-catenin. They suggested that Ezrin could play an important role in controlling the invasive potential of cancer cells.
- T. Xiao et al. 14 used an ELISA assay to quantify plasma Ezrin in patients with lung cancer. However, they did not observe any differences from control subjects. The Applicant has surprisingly shown that this protein is a good marker in biological samples from a patient with colorectal cancer, said samples being remote or not from the tumor.
- Liver Fatty Acid-Binding Protein (N 0 Swiss Prot P07148, also known as L-FABP, FABPL, FABPL, Z protein or sterol transporter protein) belongs to the FABP family comprises nine isoforms. Each isoform is named after the tissue in which it was first detected. These isoforms have a functional community, similar three-dimensional structures but their sequence homology is not high. L-FABP was sequenced in 1985 15 . It is a small 15 kDa protein, abundant in the cytosol, with the ability to bind to free fatty acids as well as bilirubin. Some recent studies suggest that alterations in the expression of the L-FABP protein may induce a process of tumorigenesis.
- L-FABP protein is a prognostic liver resection marker in patients with colorectal cancer having metastasized to the liver 18.
- the Applicant has surprisingly shown that this protein is a good marker in biological samples from a patient with colorectal cancer, said samples being distant from the tumor.
- the Intestinal Fatty Acid-Binding Protein marker (N 0 Swiss Prot P12104, also called I-FABP, FABP-2 or FABPI) was sequenced in 1987 19 . It is a small 15 kDa protein, abundant in the cytosol, with the ability to bind to free fatty acids as well as bilirubin.
- the I-FABP protein is expressed in enterocytes of the small intestine and can constitute about 2% of the protein content of this cell type. At the tissue level, the duodenum and jejunum contain significantly higher amounts of I-FABP than the colon (jejunum: 4.8 ⁇ g / g, colon: 0.25 ⁇ g / g) 20 . I-FABP could not be detected in plasma samples from healthy subjects.
- Apolipoproteins are a family of proteins consisting of polar amino acids allowing the transport of lipids in the blood by formation of a hydrophilic macromolecular complex called lipoprotein.
- lipoprotein hydrophilic macromolecular complex
- the plasma concentration of Apolipoproteins is not negligible, of the order of mg / ml 23 .
- the Apolipoprotein AI marker (N 0 NCBI 490098, also called Apo AI, Apo AI and Apo Al) is a protein of 243 amino acids and 28 kDa. It is essentially synthesized by the liver and intestine. This protein has been shown to be sub-abundant in the sera of patients with colorectal cancer compared to healthy subjects by SELDI-TOF 24 . However, it is stated in this article that the discrimination of patients with CRC compared to healthy subjects is achieved by combining Apo AI with other protein markers. In addition, this article specifies that the turbidimetric immunoassay assay of Apo AI performed by another team does not confirm the sub-abundance of this protein in the sera of patients with CCR 25 .
- the Apolipoprotein AII marker (Swiss Prot P02652 N 0 , also called ApoA II, Apo-AII, and Apo A2) is a 17380 Da protein composed of two polypeptide chains of 77 amino acids each connected by a disulfide bridge. Like Apolipoprotein AI, Apolipoprotein AII is essentially synthesized by the liver and intestine. Hachem et al. In Apo AI, Apo AII was also assayed in sera from patients with liver cancer following metastatic colorectal cancer. However, the results are not significant and do not allow a conclusion as to the pathology sought. The Applicant has surprisingly shown that the decrease in the concentration of this protein in patients with colorectal cancer makes them a good marker in biological samples from a patient with colorectal cancer, said samples being distant from the tumor.
- Plastine-I (N 0 Swiss Prot Q14651, also called I-plastin, Intestine- specifies plastin or Plastin 1) belongs to the family of human Plastins, three representatives of which are known: -Plastin-I, -Plastin-L and -Plastine-T. Some authors call the Plastines "Fimbrines", other authors still reserve the name of Fimbrine to -Plastine-I.
- Plastins are proteins that bind to Actin to form the cytoskeleton (cellular skeleton). These are 70 kDa proteins relatively well preserved throughout the evolution of eukaryotes. They have a high tissue specificity, only one isoform at a time is present in normal tissues 27 .
- the concentration of the tumor marker chosen in Group A will, depending on the marker in question, be increased or decreased in the biological sample in which the method of the invention is carried out with respect to the reference values determined for healthy patients.
- the method of the invention can also be improved by combining the detection of Aminoacylase 1 and another tumor marker selected from Group B, namely: Beta 2 Microglobulin, Proteasome 2OS, Galectin-3, L-type markers.
- Lactate Dehydrogenase Chain B Calreticulin, Regenerating Islet-Derived Protein 3 Alpha, Tumor-Associated Calcium Signal Transducer 1, Keratin Type II Cytoskeletal 8, Keratin Type I Cytoskeletal 18, Keratin Type I Cytoskeletal 19, Epithelial-Cadherin, ACE, Villine, CA 19-9, CA 242, CA 50, CA 72-2, Testosterone, TIMP-I, Cripto-1, Intelectin-1, Protein Disulfide Isomerase, Cytokeratin 20, Translationally-Controlled Tumor Protein, (Pro) Defensin-A5, detection of DNA fragments in the blood having specific alterations in their methylation profile, such as, for example, the methylated DNA of the AXL4 gene (Arist
- Beta 2 Microglobulin (Swiss Prot P61769 N 0 , also called ⁇ 2 Microglobulin, ⁇ 2M) is a low molecular weight protein (11 to 12 kDa) found on the surface of most nucleated human cells. The rate of ⁇ 2 Serum microglobulin increases in some cancer patients, without this increase being specific or correlated with the nature of the tumor, its stage or the severity of the disease.
- ⁇ 2 Microglobulin is filtered by the renal glomeruli and reabsorbed by the proximal convoluted tubes, its blood concentration can be modified in case of renal pathologies.
- the assay of ⁇ 2 microglobulin is most often reserved for the diagnosis of renal pathologies, or monitoring of infection with the acquired immunodeficiency virus.
- this marker is known as a tumor marker, including colon cancer.
- the marker 2OS proteasome (also known Prosome) is the central structure of the proteasome which is itself responsible for the intracellular degradation of the molecular complex 29 ubiquitinated proteins.
- the Proteasome is a 700 kDa molecular complex consisting of 28 subunits associated in 4 rings of 7 subunits. In humans, 7 alpha units ( ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2, ⁇ 3, ⁇ 4, ⁇ 5, ⁇ 6 and ⁇ 1) and 10 beta units ( ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2, ⁇ 3, ⁇ 4, ⁇ 5, ⁇ 6, ⁇ 7, ⁇ 1, ⁇ 2i and ⁇ 5i) are known. .
- the Proteasome plays a central role in the mechanisms of cell proliferation, growth, regulation and apoptosis and therefore in the cancer pathways.
- Inhibition of Proteasome by Bortezomib (Velcade) is a recognized treatment for multiple myeloma.
- Phase II or III therapeutic trials are in progress for hematological cancers or tumors.
- T Lavabre-Bertrand et al. 30 have shown that the serum proteasome level can rise on the occasion of certain pathologies, especially in cases of cancer (myeloma, lymphoma and solid tumors).
- the galectin-3 marker (N 0 Swiss Prot P17931, also called Gal-3 galactose-specific lectin 3, MAC-2 antigen, IgE-binding protein, 35 kDa lectin, Carbohydrate binding protein 35, CBP 35, Laminin-binding protein Lectin L-29, L-31, Galactoside-binding protein or GALBP), is a lectin capable of binding to beta-galactosidic structures of N-acetyllactosamine type. It is a protein to multiple functions involved in various biological functions, including tumor cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, metastatic cancer progression 31 .
- Gal-3 can complex with many molecules: ACE, IgE, Laminin, Mucin, Mac-2BP, LAMP1, LAMP2, Fibronectin, etc.
- a serum Gal-3 assay was described by I. Iurisci et al. 32 .
- Gal-3 was captured on microplates coated with Mac-2 binding protein (a Gal-3 binding protein) and then revealed with anti-Gal-3 rat antibody. This study showed a serum elevation of Gal-3 in gastrointestinal cancers, breast, lung, ovary, melanoma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
- L-lactate dehydrogenase B chain (N 0 Swiss Prot P07195, also known as LDH-B, LDH Heart Unit or LDH-H) is a protein capable of complexing as homotetramers. This protein may also be complexed with the protein L-lactate dehydrogenase chain A (N 0 Swiss Prot P00338, also known as LDH-A, LDH muscle unit or LDH-M) in the form of straight tetramers.
- LDH serum dose and / or serum enzyme activity of tetrameric complexes, termed LDH, increases in the bloodstream in proportion to the tumor mass for many solid tumors.
- LDH is considered a marker of interest for the prognosis of lymphoma, leukemia and colon cancer 33 .
- the marker calreticulin (N 0 Swiss Prot P27797, also known as CRP55, Calregulin, HACBP, ERp60 or grp60) is a multifunctional protein. It is a lectin capable of interacting transiently with almost all the monoglycosylated proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum. This is how DJ. McCool et al. 34 showed that Calreticulin was involved in the maturation of colonic mucin MUC2. A method of diagnosing CRC using a Calreticulin assay in a tissue, stool or body fluid is described in WO03 / 065003.

- TPA, TPS or CYFRA-21-1 have been used for the therapeutic monitoring of colorectal, breast, lung, bladder, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate and certain ENT cancers.
- the blood test of the soluble fragments of cytokeratin has indeed a clinical value to detect recurrences or to evaluate the response to the committed therapy (radiotherapy, chemotherapy, hormonal treatment).
- a regular dosage makes it possible in particular to evaluate the progression of the tumor mass.
- the dose of soluble blood cytokeratin also has a prognostic aspect with respect to tumor stage and metastasis formation.
- cytokeratin blood test is CYFRA 21-1. It is highly recommended for monitoring patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
- TPA AB Sangtec Medical Co., Byk-Roland

- H. Kim et al. 42 have shown that stool assay of cytokeratin 19 (DiNonA Inc.) may be useful for screening for digestive diseases in conjunction with a fecal occult blood test.
- Cytokeratin 20 (Swiss Prot P35900 N 0 , also called Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 20, CK-20, Keratin-20, K20, or Protein IT) as a marker in colorectal cancer is described in US2002 / 0160382 patent application.
- the Epithelial-Cadherin (Swiss Prot P12830 N 0 marker, also called E- Cadherin, Uvomorulin, Cadherin-1, CAM 120/80 or CD324 antigen) is a transmembrane protein mediating calcium-dependent cell adhesion. It is specifically expressed in epithelial cells, where it is involved in maintaining their phenotype.
- the cytoplasmic domain of E-Cadherin binds to ⁇ -catenin, which is itself linked to the actin filament arrays of the cytoskeleton. This binding of E-cadherin / ⁇ -catenin plays a critical role in stabilizing cell / cell adhesions of epithelial tissue.
- E-Cadherin can therefore reduce cell adhesion and increase the invasiveness of cancer cells.
- a reduction in the expression of E-cadherin or of ⁇ -catenin is generally associated with a dedifferentiation and a greater aggressiveness of the tumor, in particular for digestive cancers. This is how F. Roca et al. 43 showed that patients with colorectal cancer and under-expressing E-Cadherin had a worse prognosis than patients with normal expression levels.
- Damsky et al. 44 showed that a soluble form of E-Cadherin could be released by the MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. This soluble form corresponds to the cleavage of the extracellular portion of E-cadherin.

- a blood test of this marker has a poor sensitivity for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer. at an early stage.
- the serum ACE assay is especially recommended for assessing the risk of liver metastases 48 and for therapeutic monitoring.
- it is a marker of colorectal cancer, it can indeed be increased in many other cancers (lung, breast ).
- the dosage of ACE in the stool appears to be more sensitive and specific than the serum ACE assay or blood stool assay 49 . This dosage is not yet proposed routinely.
- CA19-9 Carbohydrate antigen 19.9
- the CA 19-9 blood test is more specific than that of ACE.
- the blood CA 19-9 level increases in case of colorectal cancer, pancreas and liver (cholangiocarcinoma), but also in cases of non-cancerous diseases (cholangitis ). Its use in association with the ACE is recommended both at the time of the diagnosis of a cancer and for the follow-up of the pathology.

They are said to be specific when they are able to bind to these markers with a high specificity, even a specificity of 100%. They are said to be nonspecific when their binding specificity to these markers is low and they are then able to bind to other ligands, such as proteins. By way of example, mention may be made of antibodies, antibody fractions, receptors and any other molecule capable of binding to this marker.
- the binding partner antibodies are, for example, either polyclonal antibodies or monoclonal antibodies.
