BACKGROUND: Mutations in four major driver genes -KRAS, CDKN2A, TP53, and SMAD4- are central to the pathogenesis of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and critically inform diagnosis, therapeutic decision-making, and prognostic assessment. Although next-generation sequencing (NGS) is widely regarded as the gold standard for detecting these mutations, its clinical application is often limited by suboptimal analytical efficiency and substantial economic cost. Among these genes, immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for the proteins encoded by TP53 and SMAD4 has been extensively adopted in routine pathology practice. However, standardized IHC pattern classification schemes and rigorous validation of their predictive accuracy for underlying genomic alterations remain lacking in PDAC. METHODS: We retrospectively enrolled 63 PDAC patients and systematically characterized the typical IHC expression patterns of p53 and Smad4. Targeted NGS was subsequently performed on all available tumor specimens, and the resulting mutational profiles were correlated with corresponding IHC findings. Diagnostic performance including sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of p53 IHC for predicting TP53 mutations and of Smad4 IHC for predicting SMAD4 mutations was rigorously evaluated. RESULTS: Among the four canonical driver genes, co-occurring double- or triple-gene mutations were prevalent; within TP53 and SMAD4, missense mutations constituted the most frequent variant type. Using NGS as the reference standard, we validated the diagnostic utility of a three-tiered p53 IHC classification system, particularly in fine-needle biopsy (FNB) specimens. Furthermore, we proposed a novel, refined Smad4 IHC pattern classification that incorporates an "intermediate" category, thereby expanding upon conventional binary interpretation. This new scheme achieved markedly improved mutation prediction accuracy (0.76) compared with traditional approaches (0.57). CONCLUSION: Our study highlights the complementary diagnostic value of p53 and Smad4 IHC relative to molecular testing in PDAC, especially when tissue is limited, as commonly encountered in FNB specimens. The newly established Smad4 IHC classification system, which integrates an intermediate expression category into the conventional two-tier framework, demonstrates superior clinical utility and enhances predictive accuracy for SMAD4 genomic alterations.
