Abstract 124P

Background

FGFR2 gene F/R is present in 10-15% of iCCA and FGFR2 inhibitors have demonstrated significant antitumor activity in this population. However, specific clinicopathological features of iCCA patients (pts) harboring FGFR 2 gene F/R have not yet been well clarified. So far, limited literature data seem suggest a correlation between FGFR2 gene F/R and young age and female gender. The aim of this study is to construct a nomogram predicting FGFR2 gene status.

Methods

iCCA pts from four Italian Institutions were retrospectively collected. The following clinicopathological variables were selected: gender; age (< 55 vs ≥ 55 years); synchronous vs metachronous metastases (mts); number of metastatic sites (1 vs >1), lung/distant lymph-node/peritoneal/bone mts (present vs absent). A multivariate logistic regression model was used to screen out independent predictive factors with a cut-off of 0.10 and a nomogram was established.

Results

Among 464 iCCA pts retrospectively evaluated, 63 (14%) had FGFR2 gene F/R. Univariate and multivariate analysis suggested that age < 55 years [odds ratio (OR): 2.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.15-3.9], bone mts (OR: 2.58, 95% CI 1.28-5.20) and female gender (OR: 1.53, 95% CI 0.88–2.67) were independent predictive factors of FGFR2 gene F/R. A predictive nomogram was established: pts with the highest score (age < 55 years, bone mts, female gender) had a 60% chance to bear FGFR2 gene F/R iCCA [AUC 0.64 (95% CI: 0.57 -0.72)] in comparison to pts with low score (age ≥ 55 years, no bone mts, male gender) which had a 7% chance to have FGFR2 positive iCCA.

Conclusions

In the era of molecular characterization, we have developed a simple nomogram for predicting FGFR2 gene status in iCCA. This nomogram might help clinicians to identify pts more likely to harbour FGFR2 gene F/R and increase their therapeutic opportunities. An external validation-set will be analyzed to improve predictive performance.
