Abstract:Objective: To evaluate the predictive value of serum S100B expression in brain metastasis risk for patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and its association with clinicopathological characteristics of SCLC patients. Methods: 20 SCLC patients with brain metastases, 24 SCLC patients without brain metastases and 16 post-operative SCLC patients as control group were enrolled in this case-control study. The serum levels of S100B in three groups were detected by ELISA. Results: Serum S100B levels in SCLC patients with brain metastases were markedly increased compared with SCLC patients without brain metastasis and postoperative SCLC patients (all P<0.001). Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) showed that serum S100B level had a good predictive value for brain metastasis in SCLC patients(SCLC patients with brain metastases vs. SCLC patients without brain metastases: AUC 0.840 (95% CI: 0.721~0.958); SCLC patients with brain metastases vs. post-operative SCLC patients: AUC 0.906 (95% CI: 0.811~1.000)). Multivariate regression analysis displayed that high level of serum S100B was an independent factor in predicting brain metastasis risk in SCLC patients (P=0.025). In addition, serum S100B level was positive associated with N stage in SCLC patients with brain metastases (P=0.019). Spearman rank correlation analysis revealed that serum S100B level was positively correlated with Neuron Specific Enolase (NSE) in SCLC patients with brain metastases (r=0.508, P=0.022). Conclusion: Serum S100B could be a promising biomarker of brain metastasis risk in SCLC patients, and it is positively correlated with N stage and NSE level in SCLC patients with brain metastasis.
