Dee Sparacio @womenofteal Welcome @cawincolumbia and @cgregaris ! Thanks for joining us. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Iโll reply with points 1 (1/2): When I was a postdoc @DanaFarber, I worked in a lab that focused on the function of BRCA1. However, most of the effort was in breast cancer but I knew that BRCA1 was a tumor-suppressor for both ovarian and breast cancers. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin (2/2) My mentor, David Livingston, gave me the latitude to do research in ovarian cancer and I began by focusing on a biomarker for early detection and thinking about pathogenesis. #gyncsm | |

GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm Of the 4 main OC types, most #ovariancancer (85-90%) falls into the Epithelial type. High-grade serous (HGSOC) is the most common subtype of ovarian cancer, making up ~75% of Epithelial ovarian cancer, which includes fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 1 (1/2): HGSOC is the most common subtype of ovarian cancer. Unfortunately, it tends to spread before detection. Once it is diagnosed, most patients get treated with surgery and chemotherapy. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 2 (2/2): Initially, the majority of patients will have a positive response to the treatment. Unfortunately, most will have their tumors come back. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 1 (1/4): After the BRCA genes were cloned in the mid-1990s, we began offering women at risk prophylactic surgery. That included mastectomy for breast cancer and removal of the ovaries (and fallopian tubes) for ovarian cancer. #gyncsm | |

Lisa M Guzzardi, RN @LguzzardiM @ronny_drapkin Due to often late staged diagnosis, is that correct @ronny_drapkin ? #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 2 (2/4): The removal of the FTs along with the ovaries was surgically convenient and most of the attention was placed on the ovary. As early as 2000, reports began to emerge that some of these prophylactic specimens had abnormal looking cells in the FT. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @LguzzardiM #gyncsm Yes, diagnosis is often late stage when tumor has metastasized. | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal FT = Fallopian Tubes HGSOC= High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 3 (3/4): Around 2005-2006, Dr. Chris Crum (my clinical mentor during residency) @BrighamWomens developed the SEE-FIM (Sectioning and Extensively Examining the FIMbriated end of the fallopian tube) protocol to get a better understanding of what was happening there. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 4 (4/4): That is when we realized that most of these tumors were arising from the tube rather than the ovary. Subsequent use of SEE-FIM confirmed this in publications around the world. #gyncsm | |

Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 T2: The first I heard about the fallopian tube as possible origin site for #ovariancancer was around 2010 I think... so thinking the studies are maturing and diving deeper and starting to influence practice.... #gyncsm | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal The development of SEE-FIM protocol was crucial to your research. I saw that a Team in Thailand recently confirmed benefit of its use. https://t.co/hPdUU1IGb0 #gyncsm | |
GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm T3: What characteristics did you study when you examined fallopian tube lesions versus lesions of the ovary? How are BRCA mutations involved? #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @btrfly12 #gyncsm In retrospect, the earliest published studies were in 2000-2001. It wasn't until after SEE-FIM that we realized what was happening and appreciated those earlier studies. | |

Sarah Temkin @temkins The majority of #ovariancancer is diagnosed at Stage III or IV. To date a mode of screening or early detection which decreases #cancermortality has not been identified. This is why prevention is so important to this disease. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Iโll start my reply with point 1 (1/6): Much of that data is based on histological studies. We wanted to see if we could definitively show that these tumors arise from precursor lesions in the FTs by using next generation sequencing and advanced bioinformatic tools. #gyncsm | |
Kristel Gonzalez @Kristel_GT RT @EMBOSU: Hi everyone-excited to join tonight after many missed chats the past several months! I'm Erica, genetic counselor in the Gyn Onc clinics at @MDAndersonNews and @harrishealth LBJ hospital #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 2 (2/6): We identified cases of HGSOC that had precursors identified in the FT by pathologists. We then used laser-capture microdissection to carefully isolate those cells and applied whole-exome sequencing to characterize the mutations and copy number changes. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @womenofteal #gyncsm It is a simple procedure done in the Pathology department when prophylactic specimens are examined and processed for microscopic evaluation. | |
Michele Rhee @michelerhee @temkins What are the recommendations for prevention of #ovariancancer? #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 3 (3/6): These efforts revealed that mutations in p53 are among the earliest defects detectable. We also found that copy number alterations (amplifications or deletions in certain genes or chromosomal regions) are also frequent, early, and involve the BRCA genes. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 4 (4/6): As lesions become more complex they retain the early defects (p53 mutations and copy number changes) and acquire additional ones. #gyncsm | |
GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm #gyncsm moderator note: just a reminder we are using HGSOC as abbreviation for High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 5 (5/6): Using computational tools we were able to develop a molecular clock. This approach showed that there are 6-7 years between the development of a precursor lesion (called a STIC) and clinically evident 'ovarian' cancer. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 6 (6/6): However, once the tumor cells get to the ovary, there are only 1.9 years before they spread to the rest of the abdominal cavity. Hence, the window of opportunity to intervene is the 6-7 years before the cells get to the ovary. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @temkins #gyncsm Correct. More on that shortly. | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal @ronny_drapkin I often wondered how long from those first precancerous cells it took to develop into cancer. #gyncsm | |

Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 Love the idea of finding a way to catch the pre-cancerous cells like we can already do in #cervicalcancer #gyncsm | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal @btrfly12 Me too! #gyncsm | |

GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm T4a: Are HGSOC cancer cells found in the fallopian tube different than those found in/on the ovary? How do they differ from Fallopian Tube Cancer cells? #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @btrfly12 #gyncsm Yes! | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin T4: While there have been many efforts to find early cancer cells in/on the ovary, no one has been able to reproducibly identify them. Since SEE-FIM, a number of systematic attempts have tried to find early precursors in the ovary but have failed. #gyncsm | |

Michele Rhee @michelerhee @womenofteal @btrfly12 Yes!! Earlier diagnosis matters. If people arenโt diagnosed until disease has progressed to a late stage, then *of course* itโs so much harder to treat. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin T5: Iโll answer with a few points (1/4): Tremendous potential here! The most obvious areas will be in prevention and early detection. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 2 (2/4): The significant morbidity associated with removal of the FTs and ovaries (surgical menopause) has led up to 30-40% of BRCA carriers to delay or refuse risk-reducing surgery. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 3 (3/4): For these women, there are ongoing studies looking at the effect of removing the FTs first (interval salpingectomy) and later removing the ovaries (delayed oophorectomy). One example is the WISP study by @KarenLuMD #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin Point 4 (4/4): For average risk women there is โopportunistic salpingectomyโ - for example, if you are having a hysterectomy for any reason, the rec is to remove the FTs #gyncsm | |
Erica Bednar @EMBOSU @ronny_drapkin @gyncsm @Penn @BrighamWomens I've seen a few reports at MD Anderson where we have detected STIC...always very interesting especially since most women are diagnosed with HGSOC at an advanced stage, we rarely have the chance to see such an early presentation of FT/HGSOC #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @EMBOSU @gyncsm @Penn @BrighamWomens #gyncsm STIC 'in isolation' are only likely to be seen in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers. The frequency of identifying a STIC-alone (no HGSOC) is ~4-5% of RRSOs | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @LguzzardiM @gyncsm #gyncsm Yes. First, all women with HGSOC are now recommended for testing. Second, in addition to BRCA1 and BRCA2 there are other genes, like RAD51C, that are associated with risk. We don't know as much about these genes though. | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @temkins #gyncsm Indeed - pathologically, they are the same disease too! | |

Christina Lizaso @btrfly12 RRSOs = Risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy = high risk but not cancer yet removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @womenofteal @gyncsm #gyncsm The BRCA genes are involved in maintaining genomic stability. They repair our DNA. When they are mutated or lost, we have genomic INstability. That leads to cancer. | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal @ronny_drapkin @temkins I knew they were treated the same but did not know they were the same pathologically. Just assumed there was something different about them. #gyncsm | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @michelerhee #gyncsm Great question. The risk of ovarian cancer is pretty low for average risk women. Sadly, we currently do not have a test for early detection. | |

GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm #gyncsm | |
Erica Bednar @EMBOSU @michelerhee knowing/learning about your family history of cancer is an important piece of knowing if you may be in the higher vs average risk population. Family history of ovarian cancer can lead to recommendations of genetic counseling, testing, screening #gyncsm | |
Dee Sparacio @womenofteal @ronny_drapkin @gyncsm Your article in Nature https://t.co/vBVdQSVod6 about your research talks about TP53. How was that mutation important in your research? #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin T6: This is the most exciting part. How does the FT matter!?! Lots of activity in this area. We are actively working with a company (nVision Medical) that has developed a modified hysteroscope that can sample the cells in the FT. It is like a pap smear of the FT. #gyncsm | |
Sarah Temkin @temkins @michelerhee @ronny_drapkin 5 years of oral contraceptive use decreases risk of #ovariancancer by 50%. #gyncsm. This is true for women at average and high risk of disease. #gyncsm. | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin @womenofteal @gyncsm #gyncsm TP53 is a tumor suppressor that is often called the 'Guardian of the Genome'. The loss of TP53 function early in the development of these cancers (along with BRCA) leads to the genomic instability that is the hallmark of HGSOC. | |

Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin T6: the goal of such a device/method is to detect early FT cancers before they get to the ovary. We are currently testing it in women with pelvic masses but we are already planning to test it in BRCA mutation carriers. #gyncsm | |

GYN Cancer | #GYNCSM @gyncsm Learning so much tonight. Thanks to our guest and thanks to all for joining in for more of an Ask the Expert type chat vs. broad open discussion. Hope you enjoyed it. We like to mix it up. #gyncsm | |
Ronny Drapkin ๐ฎ๐ฑ ๐บ๐ธ @ronny_drapkin T6: Another approach relates to the concept of 'tissue proximal sampling'.
