PG - 1253-7 LID - 10.1002/hed.23443 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Despite multimodal treatment, sinonasal malignancies have an unfavorable prognosis. The purpose of this study was to elucidate if these tumors harbor amplifications of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) gene, which has recently been identified as a potential therapeutic target in squamous cell lung cancer. METHODS: One hundred twelve primary tumors (including squamous cell carcinoma [SCC], carcinoma associated with an inverted papilloma, sinonasal undifferentiated carcinoma [SNUC], adenocarcinoma, adenoid cystic carcinoma [ACC], esthesioneuroblastoma, and 9 corresponding lymph node metastases) were assessed by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for FGFR1 copy number status. Human papillomavirus (HPV) status was assessed by p16 immunohistochemical as a surrogate marker. RESULTS: FGFR1 amplification was found in subsets of sinonasal SCCs (20%), carcinomas associated with an inverted papilloma (33%), and SNUCs (5%). In all cases, metastatic tumor samples shared the same FGFR1 amplification status as the corresponding primary tumor tissue. None of the FGFR1-amplified tumors expressed p16. CONCLUSION: FGFR1 amplification represents a potential molecular target in a subset of patients with sinonasal cancer. (c) 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 36: 1253-1257, 2014.
