This distinction can have a significant influence on both patient prognostication as well as recommended treatment regimens.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Cases</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>In this case series, we present three patients surgically treated for inguinal node-positive PSCC. Two of the patients developed isolated lesions in the right hilar lymph nodes within 14 months after surgery, and one patient had a concurrent lesion in the right upper lobe at the time of diagnosis. None of the standard radiological or histopathological examinations could truly identify the origin of these lesions. Moreover, neither could biomarker analysis with p16<sup>INK4a</sup> and human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA status. However, focused genomic profiling of both penile and thoracic tumor tissue with next generation sequencing (NGS) technology identified specific mutations in the <i>TP53</i> gene (2 cases) and a potentially actionable mutation in the <i>ERBB2</i> gene (1 case) that additionally could aid in distinguishing possible primary lung SCC from metastatic PSCC. No germline mutations were detected.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Focused NGS analysis of tumor tissue can provide molecular insights that may help clarify the possible origin of thoracic tumors in patients with PSCC. The results may support clinical decision-making and also be used for prognostication and patient counseling.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":9440,"journal":{"name":"Cancer reports","volume":"8 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cnr2.70278","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144635076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, it has also been used for early-stage triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2<sup>+</sup>) breast cancers.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Objectives</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Our hypothesis asserts a correlation between breast radiological and pathological response post-NACT in non-luminal breast cancer patients. We also aimed to determine the predictive value of MRI in predicting response in these patients. Radiologist agreement upon radiological MRI response is also highlighted in the current study.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Methods</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>A retrospective study to evaluate MRI's accuracy for assessing tumor response to NACT in early and locally advanced non-metastatic breast cancer patients in comparison with pathological assessments. We enrolled cases that were treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy between December 2019 and November 2023.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Dynamic MRI's sensitivity to detect tumor response is 86.4%, its specificity is 96.8%, and its accuracy is 92.4%, with a significant <i>p</i>-value. So, the high correlation between measurements of residual disease detected by MRI and those detected by pathological assessment supports the use of MRI for imaging assessment during NACT. The two radiologists involved in our study were in good agreement in their assessment of radiological response (Kappa: 0.801, sensitivity: 85.7%, specificity: 93.8%, and accuracy: 90.6%).</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The accuracy of imaging assessment by breast MRI during NACT is validated by the greater correlation between measurements of residual disease on MRI and pathology, establishing its role as the most precise imaging modality. We strongly advocate for the dependable role of MRI in monitoring breast lesions during neoadjuvant therapy, especially in non-luminal breast cancer cases, regardless of whether they present as mass or non-mass enhancement patterns.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":9440,"journal":{"name":"Cancer reports","volume":"8 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cnr2.70275","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144615392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
