Abstract
Sinonasal papillomas are benign epithelial tumors of the sinonasal tract that are associated with a synchronous or metachronous sinonasal carcinoma in a subset of cases. Our group recently identified mutually exclusive EGFR mutations and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in inverted sinonasal papillomas and frequent KRAS mutations in oncocytic sinonasal papillomas. We also demonstrated concordant mutational and HPV infection status in sinonasal papilloma-associated sinonasal carcinomas, confirming a clonal relationship between these tumors. Despite our emerging understanding of the oncogenic mechanisms driving formation of sinonasal papillomas, little is currently known about the molecular mechanisms of malignant progression to sinonasal carcinoma. In the present study, we utilized targeted next-generation DNA sequencing to characterize the molecular landscape of a large cohort of sinonasal papilloma-associated sinonasal carcinomas. As expected, EGFR or KRAS mutations were present in the vast majority of tumors. In addition, highly recurrent TP53 mutations, CDKN2A mutations, and/or CDKN2A copy-number losses were detected; overall, nearly all tumors (n = 28/29; 96.6%) harbored at least one TP53 or CDKN2A alteration. TERT copy...Continue Reading
