PIK3CA mutation and subsequent activation of the AKT pathway play an important role in colorectal carcinogenesis. However, little has been known on the prognostic role of PIK3CA mutation in colon cancer. Utilizing 450 resectable colon cancers (stage I-III) in two independent prospective cohorts, we detected PIK3CA mutation in 82 (18%) tumors by Pyrosequencing. Cox proportional hazard models were used to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) of colon cancer-specific and overall mortalities, adjusted for patient characteristics and tumoral molecular features, including the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP), microsatellite instability (MSI) and KRAS and BRAF mutation. Compared to patients with PIK3CA-wild-type tumors, those with PIK3CA-mutated tumors experienced an increase in colon-cancer specific mortality by the univariate analysis [HR 1.64; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.95-2.86], which persisted after adjusting for other known or potential risk factors for cancer recurrence (multivariate HR 2.23, 95% CI, 1.21-4.11). The effect of PIK3CA mutation on cancer survival appeared to differ according to KRAS-mutational status. Among patients with KRAS-wild-type tumors, the presence of PIK3CA mutation was associated with a significant increase in colon cancer-specific mortality (HR 3.80, 95% CI, 1.56-9.27). In contrast, PIK3CA mutation conferred no significant effect on mortality among patients with KRAS-mutated tumors (HR 1.25; 95% CI, 0.52-2.96), although the interaction was not statistically significant (Pinteraction=0.13). Among patients who undergo a curative resection of colon cancer, PIK3CA mutation is associated with shorter cancer-specific survival. The adverse effect of PIK3CA mutation may be potentially limited to patients with KRAS-wild-type tumors.
