中文摘要
目的:在眼肿瘤学领域,关于血液还是房水(AH)是视网膜母细胞瘤(RB)更优的液体活检来源仍存在争议。在此,我们比较它们的诊断效用。
方法:在诊断时从13例(16只眼)RB患者采集配对的AH和血浆。对无细胞DNA进行测序以评估拷贝数改变(CNA)幅度;使用ichorCNA软件估计肿瘤分数(TFx)。配对结果采用Wilcoxon检验比较。
结果:体细胞拷贝数改变(SCNAs)在93.8%的AH样本中可检出,而血浆样本为53.8%。血浆TFx显著低于AH TFx(4.33-7.84%;平均7.65% vs. 4.69-99.37%;平均34.19%;p =0.004),中位差异为16.73%。血浆CNAs仅在Group D/E眼的患者中检出,其中三分之二已行眼球摘除。相比之下,AH在所有分组中均能检出CNA。在两种基质均为阳性的患者中,75%的AH识别出血浆中缺失的额外改变。在双侧病例(23%)中,AH揭示了血浆中无法区分的眼特异性改变。平均随访4个月未观察到转移证据。
结论:虽然血液CNA检出可能与晚期疾病相关,但AH对眼内诊断显示出更优的灵敏度。
临床意义:经CLIA认证的检测(LBSeq4Kids)验证,AH作为活检替代物始终优于血浆。

Purpose: There remains controversy in ocular oncology over whether blood or AH is a superior liquid biopsy for retinoblastoma (RB). Herein, we compare their diagnostic utility.
Methods: Matched AH and plasma were collected at diagnosis from 13 patients (16 eyes) with RB. Cell-free DNA was sequenced to assess copy number alteration (CNA) amplitude; ichorCNA software was used to estimate tumor fraction (TFx). Paired results were compared using the Wilcoxon test.
Results: SCNAs were detectable in 93.8% of AH samples versus 53.8% of plasma samples. Plasma TFx was significantly lower (4.33-7.84%; average 7.65%) than AH TFx (4.69-99.37%; average 34.19%; p =0.004), with a median difference of 16.73%. Plasma CNAs were detected only in patients with Group D/E eyes, two-thirds of which were enucleated. By contrast, AH enabled CNA detection across all groups. In 75% of patients positive in both substrates, AH identified additional alterations absent in plasma. In bilateral cases (23%), AH revealed eye-specific alterations indistinguishable in plasma. No evidence of metastasis was observed at average follow-up of 4 months.
Conclusion: While blood CNA detection may correlate with advanced disease, AH demonstrates superior sensitivity for intraocular diagnosis.
Clinical Implication: Validated by a CLIA-certified assay (LBSeq4Kids), AH consistently outperforms plasma as a biopsy surrogate.
