Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of the diagnostic of cancer in human subjects.
  • the present invention provides a method and an assay for the noninvasive detection of early gastric cancer by the combined use of methylated reprimo cell-free dna and pepsinogen l/ll
  • Cancer is defined as unregulated growth of abnormal cells, which form masses or tumors. This overgrowth of some tissues can occur for various reasons, such as mutations, flaws in the body monitoring system, etc.
  • the signs of cancer vary based on the type and location of the tumor, thus common tests include biopsy of the tumor, blood tests (which look for chemicals such as tumor markers), bone marrow biopsy, chest x-ray, complete blood count, CT scan, liver function tests, MRI scan, etc. Cancer causes about 15% of all human deaths.
  • the most common types of cancer in men are lung cancer, prostate cancer, colorectal cancer, and stomach cancer, and in women, the most common types are breast cancer, colorectal cancer, lung cancer, and cervical cancer.
  • the risk of cancer increases significantly with age and rates are increasing as more people live to an old age and as lifestyle changes occur in the developing world.
  • Some cancers are more common in certain parts of the world. For example, in Japan, there are many cases of stomach cancer, but in the United States, this type of cancer is unusual, differences in diet or environmental factors may play a role.
  • gastric cancer accounts for 8% and 10% of new cases and deaths by cancer, respectively. Although over 70% of these events occur in developing countries, a rise in incidence in young white cohorts might explain why gastric cancer has been postulated to be among the top ten leading causes of death by 2030.
  • Mass screening programs have been able to identify a high proportion of tumors limited to the mucosa and submucosa of the stomach, so called early gastric cancer. Thus, these programs should have an impact in reducing the mortality rate of gastric cancer. Indeed, in Japan and Korea, case-control as well as prospective longitudinal studies based on large-scale population-based surveys, showed a significant reduction in gastric cancer mortality. However, mass-screening programs may not be the most practical approach because of acceptance, availability, and cost.
  • GC Gastric cancer
  • Gastric cancer has been described as the final step of a dynamic sequence of precursor lesions which progresses from atrophic gastritis (AG), to intestinal metaplasia (IM), to dysplasia and, finally, gastric cancer.
  • This sequence is initiated by Helicobacter pylori infection, which can remain as a chronic infection or establish atrophic gastritis.
  • Long-term follow-up studies have shown an increasing annual incidence from 0.1 % in the case of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, to 6% in dysplasia for the development of gastric cancer.
  • Pepsinogen (PG) l/ll ratio in peripheral blood samples is the most extensively studied biomarker.
  • studies have shown it to have poor sensitivity (36.8-62.3%) and to be a better marker for the assessment of atrophic gastritis than gastric cancer.
  • the PG tests reflect the degree of multifocal atrophic gastritis, a well-characterized entity defined by atrophy and intestinal metaplasia of the corpus mucosa. Because gastric precancerous process arises and may be limited to the antrum rather than the corpus mucosa, longitudinal studies have shown normal PG l/ll ratio in almost half of incidental gastric cancer cases. Therefore, serum PG tests are insufficiently sensitive for the direct detection of gastric cancer.
  • document WO2010131984 describes the early detection of gastric tumors.
  • the documents describe members of the GTM gene family that can be differentially expressed in gastric tumor tissue, and thus can be used as markers for the detection of gastric and other types of cancer.
  • the document provides GTMs for the detection of tumors, including gastric tumors, and in particular human zymogen granule protein 16 (ZG16).
  • the GTMs can be used in isolation or together with other known GTMs to provide for novel signatures to be used in the detection of tumors, including gastric tumors.
  • GTM is not an specific marker for gastric cancer, and declares that the most frequently used markers for gastric cancer, CA19-9, CA72-4 and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA), where those markers allow the detection of only 15-50% of gastric tumors of any stage, declining to approximately 2-1 1 % for early stage disease.
