    Abstract Introduction: Although alterations in SMARCA4-deficient occur in non-small cell lung carcinoma (SD-NSCLC), thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumor (TSDUT) is recognized as a distinct entity in the 2021 World Health Organization Classification of Thoracic Tumors because of unique morphologic, immunophenotypic and molecular features, and worse survival compared with SD-NSCLC. Cytologic diagnosis of TSDUT is clinically important because of its aggressive behavior and because it is often diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration because TSDUTs are usually unresectable at presentation. Here, we identify cytologic features that can be used for recognition of TSDUT and distinction from SD-NSCLC.
    Materials and methods: Cytomorphologic features were investigated in cytology specimens from patients with TSDUT (n = 11) and compared with a control group of patients with SD-NSCLC (n = 20).
    Results: The presence of classic rhabdoid morphology, at least focally, was entirely specific for TSDUT (n = 6, 55%) compared with SD-NSCLC (n = 0) in this study. TSDUT more frequently showed tumor necrosis (n = 11, 100% vs. n = 8, 40%; p = .001), dominant single-cell pattern on aspirate smears or touch preparation slides (n = 8 [of 9], 80% vs. n = 3, 15%; p = .010), nuclear molding (n = 5, 45% vs. n = 1, 5%; p = .013), and indistinct cell borders (n = 11, 100% vs. n = 5, 25%; P < .001) compared with SD-NSCLC, respectively.
    Conclusions: Cytomorphologic features occurring more frequently in TSDUT include tumor necrosis, dominant single-cell pattern, nuclear molding indistinct cell borders, and focal rhabdoid cells. Presence of these features in a cytology specimen of an undifferentiated tumor, particularly in a patient with a thoracic mass, should raise suspicion for TSDUT and prompt appropriate ancillary workup.

    Abstract Background: The World Health Organization incorporates morphologic features with prognostic significance in the 2021 classification of epithelioid diffuse pleural mesothelioma (E-DPM). Although cytology specimens are often the first and occasionally the only specimen available for patients with DPM, these features have not yet been investigated in cytology.
    Methods: Nuclear atypia, pleomorphic features, necrosis, and architectural patterns were retrospectively assessed in 35 paired cytology and concurrent/consecutive surgical pathology specimens of E-DPM. Agreement between pairs was determined via unweighted κ scores. Discordant cases were re-reviewed to determine the reasons for disagreement.
    Results: Interpretation of nuclear atypia in cytology was concordant with histology in all cases (κ = 1.000; p < .001). The presence of pleomorphic features and necrosis was concordant in 97.1% (κ = 0.842; p < .001) and 85.7% (κ = 0.481; p = .001) of paired cases, respectively. Assessment of architectural patterns in cytology showed only slight agreement with histology (κ = 0.127; p = .037). In cytology cases (n = 23) with cell block material available, assessment of nuclear atypia and the presence of pleomorphic features showed perfect agreement (κ = 1.000; p < .001, each), the presence of necrosis showed moderate agreement (κ = 0.465; p = .008), and assessment of architectural patterns showed slight agreement (κ = 0.162; p = .15) in paired specimens. Most disagreements were due to sampling differences between cytology and histology specimens.
    Conclusions: Although complete nuclear grading of E-DPM is not possible given the unreliability of mitotic counts in cytology, assessment of nuclear atypia in cytology specimens is shown to be reliable. Identification of pleomorphic features and necrosis is also reliable despite occasional sampling issues. Assessment of architectural patterns is more limited in cytology.

    Abstract 9p21 deletions involving MTAP/CDKN2A genes are detected in diffuse pleural mesotheliomas (DPM) but are absent in benign mesothelial proliferations. Loss of MTAP expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is well accepted as a surrogate for 9p21 deletion to support a diagnosis of DPM. Accurate interpretation can be critical in the diagnosis of DPM, but variations in antibody performance may impact interpretation. The objectives of this study were to compare the performance of MTAP monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) EPR6893 and 1813 and to compare MTAP expression by IHC with 9p21 copy number status in DPM. Cytoplasmic expression of MTAP IHC with mAbs EPR6893 (ab126770; Abcam) and 1813 (NBP2-75730, Novus Biologicals) was evaluated in 56 DPM (47 epithelioid, 7 biphasic, and 2 sarcomatoid) profiled by targeted next-generation sequencing. 9p21 Copy number status was assessed by Fraction and Allele-Specific Copy Number Estimates from Tumor Sequencing (FACETS) analysis and also by CDKN2A fluorescence in situ hybridization in discrepant cases when material was available. MTAP mAb 1813 showed stronger immunoreactivity, more specific staining, and no equivocal interpretations compared to mAb EPR6893 which showed equivocal staining in 19 (34%) of cases due to weak or heterogenous immunoreactivity, lack of definitive internal positive control, and/or nonspecific background staining. MTAP expression with mAb 1813 showed near perfect agreement with 9p21 copy number by combined FACETS/fluorescence in situ hybridization calls (κ = 0.85; 95% CI, 0.71-0.99; P < .001). MTAP IHC with mAb 1813 was 96% sensitive, 86% specific, and 93% accurate for 9p21 homozygous deletion. The findings of this study suggest that interpretation of MTAP IHC is improved with mAb 1813 because mAb EPR6893 was often limited by equivocal interpretations. We show that MTAP IHC and molecular assays are complementary in detecting 9p21 homozygous deletion. MTAP IHC may be particularly useful for low tumor purity samples and in low-resource settings.

    Abstract Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) loss occurs in approximately 30% to 50% of diffuse pleural mesothelioma (DPM) with accumulation of yes-associated protein (YAP) 1 and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) in tumor nuclei. NF2 and YAP/TAZ represent potential therapeutic targets. We investigated the performance of NF2-YAP/TAZ dual immunohistochemistry (IHC) in identifying DPM that harbors NF2 alterations and in distinguishing DPM from benign mesothelial proliferations. NF2-YAP/TAZ IHC was subsequently performed in a Discovery cohort of DPMs with (n = 10) or without (n = 10) NF2 alterations detected by next-generation sequencing (NGS) and 9 benign cases. The cutoff values for loss of NF2 expression and YAP/TAZ overexpression using IHC were determined in the Discovery cohort. The performance characteristics of NF2-YAP/TAZ IHC were investigated in a Validation cohort (20 DPMs and 10 benign cases). In the Discovery cohort, all DPMs with NF2 alterations using NGS showed NF2 IHC scores of <2, whereas all NF2-wild-type DPMs showed scores of ≥2. NF2-altered DPMs had significantly higher YAP/TAZ H-scores (P < .001) than NF2-wild-type DPM and benign pleura (median H-scores: 237.5 [range, 185-275], 130.0 [range, 40-225], and 10.0 [range, 0-75], respectively). NF2-YAP/TAZ IHC demonstrated 95.2% sensitivity, 100% specificity, 100% positive predictive value, and 95% negative predictive value for detecting NF2 alterations in DPM (n = 40) with NGS as the gold standard and 87.5% sensitivity and 100% specificity for distinguishing DPM (n = 40) from benign mesothelial proliferations (n = 19). NF2-YAP/TAZ IHC has a high sensitivity and specificity for detecting NF2 alterations in DPM and a high specificity for malignancy, highlighting potential utility for guiding NF2-targeted therapies and distinguishing DPM from benign mimics.

    Abstract Immunotherapy is used to treat almost all patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, identifying robust predictive biomarkers remains challenging. Here we show the predictive capacity of integrating medical imaging, histopathologic and genomic features to predict immunotherapy response using a cohort of 247 patients with advanced NSCLC with multimodal baseline data obtained during diagnostic clinical workup, including computed tomography scan images, digitized programmed death ligand-1 immunohistochemistry slides and known outcomes to immunotherapy. Using domain expert annotations, we developed a computational workflow to extract patient-level features and used a machine-learning approach to integrate multimodal features into a risk prediction model. Our multimodal model (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.80, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.74-0.86) outperformed unimodal measures, including tumor mutational burden (AUC = 0.61, 95% CI 0.52-0.70) and programmed death ligand-1 immunohistochemistry score (AUC = 0.73, 95% CI 0.65-0.81). Our study therefore provides a quantitative rationale for using multimodal features to improve prediction of immunotherapy response in patients with NSCLC using expert-guided machine learning.

    Abstract Purpose: In patients with >1 non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), the distinction between separate primary lung carcinomas (SPLCs) and intrapulmonary metastases (IPMs) is a common diagnostic dilemma with critical staging implications. Here, we compared the performance of comprehensive next-generation sequencing (NGS) with standard histopathologic approaches for distinguishing NSCLC clonal relationships in clinical practice.
    Experimental design: We queried 4,119 NSCLCs analyzed by 341-468 gene MSK-IMPACT NGS assay for patients with >1 surgically resected tumor profiled by NGS. Tumor relatedness predicted by prospective histopathologic assessment was contrasted with comparative genomic profiling by subsequent NGS.
    Results: Sixty patients with NGS performed on >1 NSCLCs were identified, yielding 76 tumor pairs. NGS classified tumor pairs into 51 definite SPLCs (median, 14; up to 72 unique somatic mutations per pair), and 25 IPMs (24 definite, one high probability; median, 5; up to 16 shared somatic mutations per pair). Prospective histologic prediction was discordant with NGS in 17 cases (22%), particularly in the prediction of IPMs (44% discordant). Retrospective review highlighted several histologic challenges, including morphologic progression in some IPMs. We subsampled MSK-IMPACT data to model the performance of less comprehensive assays, and identified several clinicopathologic differences between NGS-defined tumor pairs, including increased risk of subsequent recurrence for IPMs.
    Conclusions: Comprehensive NGS allows unambiguous delineation of clonal relationship among NSCLCs. In comparison, standard histopathologic approach is adequate in most cases, but has notable limitations in the recognition of IPMs. Our results support the adoption of broad panel NGS to supplement histology for robust discrimination of NSCLC clonal relationships in clinical practice.
