Subclonal TP53 mutations are frequent and predict resistance to radioimmunotherapy in follicular lymphoma

ABSTRACT: Key Points • In a phase 3 clinical trial of FL, AICDA-mediated intraclonal heterogeneity was not prognostic.• TP53 mutated populations are common, subclonal, and their absence confers sensitivity to a radiation-containing regimen. Visual Abstract Abstract Although TP53 is commonly mutated in transformed follicular lymphoma, mutations are reported in <5% of pretreatment follicular lymphoma (FL) specimens. We assayed archival follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma specimens from a completed clinical trial, Southwest Oncology Group S0016, a phase 3 randomized intergroup trial of CHOP (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, oncovin, and prednisone) chemotherapy plus R-CHOP (rituximab-CHOP) compared with CHOP chemotherapy plus 131-iodine tositumomab (radioimmunotherapy [RIT]-CHOP). Subclonal TP53 mutations (median allele frequency 0.02) were found in 25% of diagnostic FL specimens and in 27% of a separate validation cohort. In the R-CHOP arm, pathogenic TP53 mutations were not associated with progression-free survival (PFS) (10-year PFS 43% vs 44%). In contrast, among patients with no detectable pathogenic TP53 mutation, RIT-CHOP was associated with a longer PFS than with R-CHOP (10-year PFS 67% vs 44%; hazard ratio = 0.49; P = .008). No relationship was detected between PFS and the extent of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AICDA)–mediated heterogeneity. In summary, subclonal TP53 mutations are common in FL and are a distinct phenomenon from AICDA-mediated genetic heterogeneity. The absence of a detectable subclonal mutation in TP53 defined a population that particularly benefited from RIT.

EZH2 mutations are frequent and represent an early event in follicular lymphoma.

Project description:Gain of function mutations in the H3K27 methyltransferase EZH2 represent a promising therapeutic target in germinal center lymphomas. In this study, we assessed the frequency and distribution of EZH2 mutations in a large cohort of patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) (n = 366) and performed a longitudinal analysis of mutation during the disease progression from FL to transformed FL (tFL) (n = 33). Mutations were detected at 3 recurrent mutation hot spots (Y646, A682, and A692) in 27% of FL cases with variant allele frequencies (VAF) ranging from 2% to 61%. By comparing VAF of EZH2 with other mutation targets (CREBBP, MLL2, TNFRSF14, and MEF2B), we were able to distinguish patients harboring clonal EZH2 mutation from rarer cases with subclonal mutations. Overall, the high incidence of EZH2 mutations in FL and their stability during disease progression makes FL an appropriate disease to evaluate EZH2 targeted therapy.

Clinical implications of subclonal <i>TP53</i> mutations in acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:The role of subclonal TP53 mutations, defined by a variant allele frequency of <20%, has not been addressed in acute myeloid leukemia yet. We, therefore, analyzed their prognostic value in a cohort of 1,537 patients with newly diagnosed disease, prospectively treated within three trials of the "German-Austrian Acute Myeloid Leukemia Study Group". Mutational analysis was performed by targeted deep sequencing and patients with TP53 mutations were categorized by their variant allele frequency into groups with frequencies >40%, 20%-40% and <20%. A total of 108 TP53 mutations were found in 98 patients (6.4%). Among these, 61 patients had variant allele frequencies >40%, 19 had variant allele frequencies between 20%-40% and 18 had frequencies <20%. Compared to specimens with clonal TP53 mutations, those with subclonal ones showed significantly fewer complex karyotypes and chromosomal losses. In either TP53-mutated group, patients experienced significantly fewer complete responses (P<0.001) and had worse overall and event-free survival rates (P<0.0001). In Cox regression analyses adjusting for age, white blood cell count, cytogenetic risk and type of acute myeloid leukemia, the adverse prognostic effect of TP53 mutations remained significant for all TP53-mutated subgroups. These data suggest that subclonal TP53 mutations are a novel prognostic parameter in acute myeloid leukemia and emphasize the usefulness of next-generation sequencing technologies for risk stratification in this disorder. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov with number NCT00146120.

Mutations associated with progression in follicular lymphoma predict inferior outcomes at diagnosis: Alliance A151303.

Project description:Follicular lymphoma (FL) is clinically heterogeneous, with select patients tolerating extended watch-and-wait, whereas others require prompt treatment, suffer progression of disease within 24 months of treatment (POD24), and/or experience aggressive histologic transformation (t-FL). Because our understanding of the relationship between genetic alterations in FL and patient outcomes remains limited, we conducted a clinicogenomic analysis of 370 patients with FL or t-FL (from Cancer and Leukemia Group B/Alliance trials 50402/50701/50803, or real-world cohorts from Washington University School of Medicine, Cleveland Clinic, or University of Miami). FL subsets by grade, stage, watch-and-wait, or POD24 status did not differ by mutation burden, whereas mutation burden was significantly higher in relapsed/refractory (rel/ref) FL and t-FL than in newly diagnosed (dx) FL. Nonetheless, mutation burden in dx FL was not associated with frontline progression-free survival (PFS). CREBBP was the only gene more commonly mutated in FL than in t-FL yet mutated CREBBP was associated with shorter frontline PFS in FL. Mutations in 20 genes were more common in rel/ref FL or t-FL than in dx FL, including 6 significantly mutated genes (SMGs): STAT6, TP53, IGLL5, B2M, SOCS1, and MYD88. We defined a mutations associated with progression (MAP) signature as ≥2 mutations in these 7 genes (6 rel/ref FL or t-FL SMGs plus CREBBP). Patients with dx FL possessing a MAP signature had shorter frontline PFS, revealing a 7-gene set offering insight into FL progression risk potentially more generalizable than the m7-Follicular Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (m7-FLIPI), which had modest prognostic value in our cohort. Future studies are warranted to validate the poor prognosis associated with a MAP signature in dx FL, potentially facilitating novel trials specifically in this high-risk subset of patients.

Exploiting PRMT5 as a target for combination therapy in mantle cell lymphoma characterized by frequent ATM and TP53 mutations.

Project description:Constant challenges for the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remain to be recurrent relapses and therapy resistance, especially in patients harboring somatic mutations in the tumor suppressors ATM and TP53, which are accumulated as therapy resistance emerges and the disease progresses, consistent with our OncoPrint results that ATM and TP53 alterations were most frequent in relapsed/refractory (R/R) MCL. We demonstrated that protein arginine methyltransferase-5 (PRMT5) was upregulated in R/R MCL, which predicted a poor prognosis. PRMT5 inhibitors displayed profound antitumor effects in the mouse models of MCL with mutated ATM and/or TP53, or refractory to CD19-targeted CAR T-cell therapy. Genetic knockout of PRMT5 robustly inhibited tumor growth in vivo. Co-targeting PRMT5, and ATR or CDK4 by using their inhibitors showed synergistic antitumor effects both in vitro and in vivo. Our results have provided a rational combination therapeutic strategy targeting multiple PRMT5-coordinated tumor-promoting processes for the treatment of R/R MCL with high mutation burdens.

Chromatin modifying gene mutations in follicular lymphoma.

Project description:Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent malignancy of germinal center B cells. Although the overall survival of FL patients has recently improved with the introduction of novel therapies, there is significant heterogeneity in patient outcome and a need for rationally designed therapeutic strategies that target disease biology. Next-generation sequencing studies have identified chromatin modifying gene (CMG) mutations as a hallmark of FL, highlighting epigenetic modifiers as an attractive therapeutic target in this disease. Understanding the complex roles of these mutations will be central to identifying and adaptively targeting associated vulnerabilities. Recent studies have provided insight into the functional consequences of the most frequently mutated CMGs (KMT2D, CREBBP, and EZH2) and point to a role for these events in modifying normal B-cell differentiation programs and impeding germinal center exit. However, the majority of FL tumors serially acquire multiple CMG mutations, suggesting that there is a level of cross talk or cooperation between these events that has not yet been defined. Here, I review the current state of knowledge on CMG mutations in FL, discuss their potential as therapeutic targets, and offer my perspective on unexplored areas that should be considered in the future.

Recurrent mTORC1-activating RRAGC mutations in follicular lymphoma.

Project description:Follicular lymphoma is an incurable B cell malignancy characterized by the t(14;18) translocation and mutations affecting the epigenome. Although frequent gene mutations in key signaling pathways, including JAK-STAT, NOTCH and NF-κB, have also been defined, the spectrum of these mutations typically overlaps with that in the closely related diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Using a combination of discovery exome and extended targeted sequencing, we identified recurrent somatic mutations in RRAGC uniquely enriched in patients with follicular lymphoma (17%). More than half of the mutations preferentially co-occurred with mutations in ATP6V1B2 and ATP6AP1, which encode components of the vacuolar H(+)-ATP ATPase (V-ATPase) known to be necessary for amino acid-induced activation of mTORC1. The RagC variants increased raptor binding while rendering mTORC1 signaling resistant to amino acid deprivation. The activating nature of the RRAGC mutations, their existence in the dominant clone and their stability during disease progression support their potential as an excellent candidate for therapeutic targeting.

The spectrum of subclonal TP53 mutations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: A next generation sequencing retrospective study.

Project description:Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a hematological disorder with complex clinical and biological behavior. TP53 mutational status and cytogenetic assessment of the deletion of the corresponding locus (17p13.1) are considered the most relevant biomarkers associated with pharmaco-predictive response, chemo-refractoriness, and worse prognosis in CLL patients. The implementation of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methodologies in the clinical laboratory allows for comprehensively analyzing the TP53 gene and detecting mutations with allele frequencies ≤10%, that is, "subclonal mutations". We retrospectively studied TP53 gene mutational status by NGS in 220 samples from 171 CLL patients. TP53 mutations were found in 60/220 (27.3%) samples and 47/171 (27.5%) patients. Interestingly, subclonal mutations could be detected in 31/60 samples (51.7%) corresponding to 25 patients (25/47, 53.2%). We identified 44 distinct subclonal TP53 mutations clustered in the central DNA-binding domain of p53 protein (exons 5-8, codons 133-286). Missense mutations were predominant (>80%), whereas indels, nonsense, and splice site variants were less represented. All subclonal TP53 variants but one [p.(Pro191fs)] were already described in NCI and/or Seshat databases as "damaging" and/or "probably damaging" mutations (38/44, 86% and 6/44, 14%, respectively). Longitudinal samples were available for 37 patients. Almost half of them displayed at least one TP53 mutant subclone, which could be alone (4/16, 25%) or concomitant with other TP53 mutant clonal ones (12/16, 75%); different patterns of mutational dynamics overtimes were documented. In conclusion, utilization of NGS in our "real-life" cohort of CLL patients demonstrated an elevated frequency of subclonal TP53 mutations. This finding indicates the need for precisely identifying these mutations during disease since the clones carrying them may become predominant and be responsible for therapy failures.

Glycolytic biomarkers predict transformation in patients with follicular lymphoma.

Project description:Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent neoplasia comprising approximately 20% of lymphomas. FL is generally considered incurable, with a median survival exceeding 10 years. A subset of FL patients experiences histological transformation (HT) to a more aggressive lymphoma, resulting in markedly poorer clinical outcome, with a reduced median survival after transformation of 1-2 years. Early, reliable prediction of HT would be valuable in the clinical setting, allowing pre-emptive therapeutic intervention. We previously used proteomics to identify the glycolytic enzymes fructose-bisphosphate aldolase A (aldolase A) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) as candidate predictors of FL transformation. Now, we use immunohistochemistry to evaluate expression of these enzymes in paired primary FLs from patients with (n = 41) or without subsequent HT (n = 49), to test their value as predictive biomarkers. At initial FL diagnosis, patients with subsequent HT had significantly higher expression of aldolase A and GAPDH (p<0.001 and p<0.01) compared with patients without HT. Furthermore, high expression of aldolase A and GAPDH was associated with significantly shorter transformation free survival (p = 0.018, p = 0.001). These data suggest that high expression of aldolase A and GAPDH, may indicate increased metabolic turnover, and that these enzymes may be useful biomarkers in primary FL for predicting the risk of subsequent lymphoma transformation.
