Genomic and transcriptomic characterization of pre-operative chemotherapy response in patients with osteosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Osteosarcoma is a heterogeneous disease with regard to its chemotherapy response and clinical outcomes. This study aims to investigate the genomic and transcriptomic characteristics related to pre-operative chemotherapy response. Samples from 25 osteosarcoma patients were collected to perform both whole exome and transcriptome sequencing. Osteosarcoma had significant amount of chromosomal copy number variants (CNVs). Chemotherapy responders showed the higher chromosomal CNV burden than non-responders (p = 0.0775), but the difference was not significant. The percentage of COSMIC signature 3, associated with homologous recombination repair deficiency, was higher in responders (56%) than in non-responders (45%). Transcriptomic analysis suggested that 11 genes were significantly up-regulated i
