Abstract

Objectives

Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a cancer syndrome associated with early-onset neoplasias. The use of whole-body magnetic resonance imaging (WBMRI) is recommended for regular cancer screening, however, evidence supporting the benefits in asymptomatic LFS patients is limited. This study aims to assess the clinical utility of WBMRI in germline TP53 mutation carriers at baseline and follow-up.

Materials and methods

We systematically searched PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases for studies evaluating WBMRI as an early detection method for tumor screening in patients with LFS. We pooled the prevalence of the included variables along with their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Statistical analyses were performed using R software, version 4.3.1.

Results

From 1687 results, 11 comprising 703 patients (359 females (51%); with a median age of 32 years (IQR 1–74)) were included. An estimated detection rate of 31% (95% CI: 0.28, 0.34) for any suspicious lesions was found in asymptomatic TP53 carriers who underwent baseline WBMRI. A total of 277 lesions requiring clinical follow-up were identified in 215 patients. Cancer was confirmed in 46 lesions across 39 individuals. The estimated cancer diagnosis rate among suspicious lesions was 18% (95% CI: 0.13, 0.25). WBMRI detected 41 of the 46 cancers at an early-disease stage, with an overall detection rate of 6% (95% CI: 0.05, 0.08). The incidence rate was 2% per patient round of WBMRI (95% CI: 0.01, 0.04), including baseline and follow-up.

Conclusion

This meta-analysis provides evidence that surveillance with WBMRI is effective in detecting cancers in asymptomatic patients with LFS.

Clinical relevance statement

Our study demonstrates that whole-body MRI is an effective tool for early cancer detection in asymptomatic Li-Fraumeni Syndrome patients, highlighting its importance in surveillance protocols to improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes.

Key Points

  • Current evidence for whole-body MRI screening of asymptomatic Li-Fraumeni Syndrome (LFS) patients remains scarce.
  • Whole-body MRI identified 41 out of 46 cancers at an early stage, achieving an overall detection rate of 6%.
  • Whole-body MRI surveillance is a valuable method for detecting cancers in asymptomatic LFS patients.

Ringen um den richtigen Umgang mit Zufallsbefunden

Wenn 2026 in Deutschland das Lungenkrebsscreening mittels Low-Dose-Computertomografie (LDCT) eingeführt wird, wird es auch viele Zufallsbefunde ans Licht bringen. Das birgt Chancen und Risiken.

Bald 5% der Krebserkrankungen durch CT verursacht

Die jährlich rund 93 Millionen CTs in den USA könnten künftig zu über 100.000 zusätzlichen Krebserkrankungen führen, geht aus einer Modellrechnung hervor. Damit würde eine von 20 Krebserkrankungen auf die ionisierende Strahlung bei CT-Untersuchungen zurückgehen.

Röntgen-Thorax oder LDCT fürs Lungenscreening nach HNSCC?

Personen, die an einem Plattenepithelkarzinom im Kopf-Hals-Bereich erkrankt sind, haben ein erhöhtes Risiko für Metastasen oder zweite Primärmalignome der Lunge. Eine Studie hat untersucht, wie die radiologische Überwachung aussehen sollte.

Statine: Was der G-BA-Beschluss für Praxen bedeutet

Nach dem G-BA-Beschluss zur erweiterten Verordnungsfähigkeit von Lipidsenkern rechnet die DEGAM mit 200 bis 300 neuen Dauerpatienten pro Praxis. Im Interview erläutert Präsidiumsmitglied Erika Baum, wie Hausärztinnen und Hausärzte am besten vorgehen.
