MA 01.03 - The Potential of ctDNA Sequencing in Disease Monitoring and Depicting Genomic Evolution of Small-Cell Lung Cancer Under Therapy (ID 9682)
11:10 - 11:15 | Author(s): Y. Yi
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Although small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is sensitive to initial therapy, almost all patients relapse and survival remains poor. Outgrowth of treatment-resistant subclones could be responsible for recurrence. However, genomic evolution of SCLC after treatment hasn’t been well investigated, partially due to the challenge of obtaining longitudinal samples. CT is the standard modality for response assessment and disease monitoring. But it doesn’t always accurately assess the disease status. SCLC is characterized by early hemagenous spread, which makes circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis a promising modality for genomic profiling and disease monitoring of SCLC.
Method:
Targeted-capture deep sequencing (mean target coverage 538x-1866x) of 545 cancer genes was performed to 44 ctDNA samples collected before therapy as baseline and at different timepoints during treatment from 23 SCLC patients. Pretreatment tumor biopsies from 8 patients were also sequenced (mean target coverage 348x-1281x) of the same gene panel. DNA from peripheral blood mononuclear cells was served as the germline control.
Result:
Mutations were identified in all 44 ctDNA samples with a median of 16 mutations per sample (average mutation burden of 6.6/Mb). TP53 and RB1 were the most frequently mutated genes, detected in 91% (21/23) and 65% (15/23) patients, respectively. 74 mutations were identified from the 8 tumor biopsies, among which, 69 (93.2%) were detected in matched ctDNA. We inferred subclonal architecture of each ctDNA sample based on cancer cell fraction derived using PyClone. A median of 10 (ranging 2-26) subclones was inferred from each ctDNA sample and only 17% (2% to 60.%) of mutations were clonal mutations suggesting substantial genomic heterogeneity. Single gene mutations were not associated with survival. However, mean variant allele frequency of clonal mutations (clonal-VAF) at baseline was associated with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) independent of stage, age, or platinum sensitivity. The median PFS of patients with higher versus lower than median clonal-VAF was 5.2 months (95% CI, 4.6 to 5.8 months) versus 10.0 months (95% CI, 9.3 to 10.7 months), p=0.002. The median OS was 8.1 months (95% CI, 5.5 to 10.7 months) versus 24.9 months (95% CI, 0.0 to 51.2 months) in patients with higher versus lower than median clonal-VAF, respectively, p=0.004. Analysis of serial ctDNA before and during treatment showed that clonal-VAF closely tracked closely with treatment responses.
Conclusion:
ctDNA sequencing is a promising modality for genomic profiling and disease monitoring for SCLC patients. Clonal VAF may be a better ctDNA metric than single gene mutations.

OA 18.01 - Paired Tumor-Normal Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to Identify Pathogenic / Likely Pathogenic Germline Mutations in Lung Cancer Patients (ID 10326)
14:30 - 14:40 | Author(s): Y. Yi
- Abstract
- Presentation
Background:
Comprehensive NGS panel based genetic testing is becoming more common to help clinicians select appropriate therapies. It has been recommended that matched tumor-normal sequencing analyses are essential for precise identification and interpretation of genetic somatic mutations. Though it has been reported germline EGFR T790M mutations result in a unique hereditary lung cancer syndrome, little is known about germline mutation of other common hereditary cancer syndrome genes in lung cancer patients.
Method:
We reviewed the germline variants of 1000 consecutive lung cancer patients who had paired tumor-normal NGS panel sequencing in our institute between 2016 and 2017. Hybridization capture-based NGS panel sequencing enables simultaneously assess single-nucleotide variants, insertions/deletions, rearrangements, and copy-number alterations at least 59 genes (range 59 – 1021 genes). Germline variants were interpreted following ACMG guidelines, and the variants were classified into pathogenic, likely pathogenic, variant of unknown significance, likely benign, and benign 5 classes.
Result:
Twenty-seven cases were identified to carry germline pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in 12 gene (2.7%): 5 with ATM ; 4 with BRCA1, BRCA2 or MSH2 respectively; 2 with CHEK2 or PMS2 respectively; 1 in ATR, CDKN2A, FANCC, MSH3, PTCH2 or RET respectively (details in table). Mean age at diagnosis was 58 (30 – 84 years) for the patients with germline mutations and 61 (29-93 years) for those without. Interestingly, none of the patients had been diagnosed with other tumors. The incidence of actionable somatic mutations of the 27 patients was similar to others: 10 patients with EGFR mutation, 3 patients with KRAS mutation, 1 patient with KIF5B-RET fusion, MET copy number gain or BRCA1 mutation respectively.No. Gene cHGVS pHGVS Mutation type 1 ATM c.1402_1403delAA p.K468Efs*18 frameshift 2 ATM c.1898+1G>C . splice 3 ATM c.2143_2144delCT p.L715Cfs*22 frameshift 4 ATM c.6019dupG p.E2007Gfs*11 frameshift 5 ATM c.903dupT p.A302Cfs*3 frameshift 6 ATR c.80_81insA p.N27Kfs*16 frameshift 7 BRCA1 c.4185+1G>A . splice 8 BRCA1 c.962G>A p.W321* nonsense 9 BRCA1 c.3340delG p.E1114Kfs*3 frameshift 10 BRCA1 c.81-2A>G . splice 11 BRCA2 c.3968_3971delAATA p.K1323Ifs*11 frameshift 12 BRCA2 c.5054C>G p.S1685* nonsense 13 BRCA2 c.6132_6135delCTTT p.F2045Hfs*5 frameshift 14 BRCA2 c.6485_6486delAA p.K2162Tfs*13 frameshift 15 CDKN2A c.73delG p.V25* frameshift 16 CHEK2 c.1010delC p.A337Efs*10 frameshift 17 CHEK2 c.1684C>T p.R562* nonsense 18 FANCC c.1257_1258insC p.T420Hfs*15 frameshift 19 MSH2 c.1165C>T p.R389* nonsense 20 MSH2 c.1A>T p.0? init-loss 21 MSH2 c.2785C>T p.R929* nonsense 22 MSH2 c.340delG p.E114Rfs*60 frameshift 23 MSH3 c.802C>T p.R268* nonsense 24 PMS2 c.1053delG p.L351Ffs*5 frameshift 25 PMS2 c.943C>T p.R315* nonsense 26 PTCH2 c.2441_2442delCT p.S814* frameshift 27 RET c.2410G>A p.V804M missense
Conclusion:
Germline mutations in common hereditary cancer syndrome genes is not rare in lung cancer patients, and it can be identified on routine matched tumor-normal NGS sequencing. Retrospective family history analysis and genetic counseling for those patients are underway.
