MET gene alterations predict poor survival following chemotherapy in patients with advanced cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: To aid in oncology drug development, we investigated MET proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase gene aberrations in 2,239 oncology patients who underwent next-generation sequencing (NGS) in clinical practice. Materials and methods: From November 2019 to January 2021, 2,239 patientswith advanced solid tumors who visited oncology clinics underwent NGS. The NGS panel included >500 comprehensive NGS tests using archival tissue specimens. Programmed death-ligand 1(PD-L1) 22C3 assay results and clinical records regarding initial chemotherapy were available for 1,137 (50.8%) and 1,761 (78.7%) patients, respectively for overall survival (OS) analysis. Results: The 2,239 patients represented 37 types of cancer. The NGS panel included >500 genes, microsatellite instability status, tumor mutational burden, and fusions. The most common cancer types were colorectal (N = 702), gastric (N = 481), and sarcoma (N = 180). MET aberrations were detected in 212 patients. All MET-amplified tumors had microsatellite stable status, and 8 had a high tumor mutational burden. Of 46 patients with MET-amplified cancers, 8 had MET-positive protein expression by immunohistochemistry (2+ and 3+). MET fusion was detected in 10 patients. Partner genes of MET fusion included ST7, TFEC, LRRD1, CFTR, CAV1, PCM1, HLA-DRB1, and CAPZA2. In survival analysis, patients with amplification of MET gene fusion had shorter OS and progression-free survival (PFS) than those without. Thus, MET aberration was determined to be a factor of response to chemotherapy. Conclusion: Approximately 2.1% and 0.4% of patients with advanced solid tumors demonstrated MET gene amplification and fusion, respectively, and displayed a worse response to chemotherapy and significantly shorter OS and PFS than those without MET gene amplification or fusion.

Project description:BACKGROUND; Cisplatin-containing chemotherapy is the standard of care for patients with locally advanced and metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium. The response rate is around 50% and tumor derived molecular prognostic markers are needed for estimation of response and survival. METHODS; Affymetrix GeneChip expression profiling was carried out using tumor material from 30 patients. A set of genes having an expression with high correlation to survival time after chemotherapy was identified. Two of these genes were selected for validation by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in tumor tissue from 149 cisplatin treated patients having complete follow-up data. RESULTS; Fifty-five differentially expressed genes correlated significantly to survival time. Two of these (Emmprin and Survivin) were validated using IHC, and multivariate analysis (n=145) identified Emmprin expression (hazard ratio 2.38; p<0.0001) and Survivin expression (hazard ratio 2.34; p<0.0001) as independent prognostic markers for poor outcome, together with the presence of visceral metastases (hazard ratio 2.72; p<0.0001). In the good prognosis group of patients without visceral metastases, both markers showed significant discriminating power as supplemental risk factors (p<0.0001). Within this group of patients, the subgroups of patients with no positive, one positive or two positive IHC stainings (Emmprin and Survivin) had estimated 5-year survival rates (+- SE) of 35.6+-?%, 6.3+-?%, and 0+?%, respectively. Response to chemotherapy could also be predicted with an OddsRatio of 4.60 (2.13-9.93) and 2.59 (1.25-5.38) for Emmprin and Survivin respectively. CONCLUSION; Emmprin and Survivin proteins were identified as strong independent prognostic predictors for response and survival after cisplatin-containing chemotherapy in patients with bladder cancer. Experiment Overall Design: Tumors from 30 patients with advanced bladder cancer used in the study. A SAM analysis was used for identifying genes co-varying with treatment response.

Project description:Purpose This study aimed to investigate the clinical utility of diverse aneuploid circulating tumor cell (CTC) subtypes and particularly CTC-associated white blood cell (CTC-WBC) clusters in predicting treatment response, prognosis and real-time monitoring disease progression in advanced driver gene-negative non-small lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Materials and methods A total of 74 eligible patients were prospectively enrolled and serial blood samples were collected at pre-treatment(t0), after two cycles of therapy (t1) and at post-four-to-six treatment cycles (t2). Co-detection of diverse subtypes of aneuploid CTCs and CTC-WBC clusters was conducted in advanced NSCLC patients receiving first-line treatment. Results At baseline, CTCs were detected in 69 (93.24%) patients and CTC-WBC clusters were detected in 23 (31.08%) patients. Patients with CTCs < 5/6ml or with CTC-WBC clusters undetectable exhibited a better treatment response than patients with pre-therapeutic aneuploid CTCs ≥ 5/6ml or harboring CTC-WBC clusters (p = 0.034 and p = 0.012, respectively). Before treatment, patients bearing tetraploid CTCs ≥ 1/6ml showed significantly inferior progression-free survival (PFS) [hazard ratio (HR):2.420, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.426–4.106; p = 0.001] and overall survival (OS) compared to patients with tetraploid CTCs < 1/6ml (HR:1.907, 95%CI: 1.119–3.251; p = 0.018). A longitudinal study demonstrated that post-therapeutic patients harboring CTC-WBC clusters displayed the reduced PFS and OS compared with those without CTC-WBC clusters, and subgroup analysis showed that the presence of CTC-WBC clusters indicated a worse prognosis in both lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) patients. After adjusting for multiple significant factors, post-therapeutic CTC-WBC clusters were the only independent predictor of both PFS (HR:2.872, 95% CI: 1.539–5.368; p = 0.001) and OS (HR:2.162, 95% CI: 1.168–4.003; p = 0.014). Conclusions In addition to CTCs, longitudinal detection of CTC-WBC clusters provided a feasible tool to indicate initial treatment response, dynamically monitor disease progression and predict survival in driver gene-negative advanced NSCLC patients.
