SNP array data of breast cancer

ABSTRACT: Genome-wide study of LOH and copy number changes associated with breast cancer, their subtypes and their clinical outcome including response to chemotherapy in women sufferred from breast cancinomas. Mapping chromosome 8q22 copy gain associated with poor clinical outcome of breast cancer and discovery of 8q22 genes relevant to specific drug resistance. Overall design: Affymetrix GenChip 10K SNP Xba131 arrays were used according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from breast cancer cells enriched by needle microdissection and from paired peripheral blood samples in 50 breast tumors of high grade. Copy number analysis using dChip software was performed to identify poor outcome-associated chromosomal amplification and to correlate with gene expression.

Adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer after surgery has effectively lowered metastatic recurrence rates. However, a considerable proportion of women suffer recurrent cancer at distant metastatic sites despite adjuvant treatment. Identification of the genes crucial for tumor response to specific chemotherapy drugs is a challenge but is necessary to improve outcomes. By using integrated genomics, we identified a small number of overexpressed and amplified genes from chromosome 8q22 that were ass ...[more]

Project description:Breast cancer is an extremely heterogeneous disease. This heterogeneity can be observed at multiple levels, including gene expression, chromosomal aberrations, and disease pathology. A clear understanding of these differences is important since they impact upon treatment efficacy and clinical outcome. Many studies have shown that the tumor microenvironment also plays a critical role in cancer initiation and progression. Although genomic technologies have been used to gain a better understanding of the impact of gene expression heterogeneity on breast cancer outcome by identifying gene expression signatures associated with clinical outcome, histopathological breast cancer subtypes, and a variety of cancer--related pathways and processes, relatively little is known about the influence of of heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment on these factors. We show that gene expression in the breast tumor microenvironment is highly heterogeneous, identifying at least six different classes of tumor stroma with distinct expression patterns and distinct biological processes. Two of these classes recapitulate the processes identified in the stroma--derived prognostic predictor, while the others are new classes of stroma associated with distinct clinical outcomes. One of these is associated with matrix remodeling and is strongly associated with the basal molecular subtype of breast cancer. The remainder are independent of the previously published molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Additionally, based on independent data from over 800 tumors, the combinations of stroma classes and breast cancer subtypes identify new subgroups of breast tumors that show better discrimination between good and poor outcome individuals than the molecular breast cancer subtypes or the stroma classes alone, suggesting a novel classification scheme for breast cancer . This further demonstrates an important role for the tumor microenvironment in defining breast cancer heterogeneity, with a consequent impact upon clinical outcome. Overall design: 49 samples, each replicated at least 2 times in a common reference design using Agilent whole human genome oligonucleotide arrays.

Project description:Breast cancer is a profoundly heterogeneous disease with respect to biological and clinical behavior. Gene expression profiling has been used to dissect this complexity and stratify tumors into intrinsic gene expression subtypes associated with distinct biology, patient outcome and different genomic alterations. Additionally, breast tumors occurring in individuals with germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations typically fall into distinct subtypes. We applied global DNA copy number and gene expression profiling in 359 breast tumors. All tumors were classified according to intrinsic gene expression subtypes and included cases from genetically predisposed women. The Genomic Identification of Significant Targets in Cancer (GISTIC) algorithm was used to identify significant DNA copy number aberrations and genomic subgroups of breast cancer. We identified 31 genomic regions that were highly amplified in >1% of the 359 breast tumors. Several amplicons were found to co-occur, the 8p12 and 11q13.3 regions being the most frequent combination besides amplicons on the same chromosomal arm. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering with 133 significant GISTIC regions (66 and 67 with DNA copy number gain and loss, respectively) revealed six genomic subtypes, termed: 17q12, basal-complex, luminal-simple, luminal-complex, amplifier and mixed subtype. Four of them had striking similarity to intrinsic gene expression subtypes and showed association to conventional tumor biomarkers and clinical outcome. However, luminal A-classified tumors were distributed in two main genomic subtypes, luminal-simple and luminal-complex, the former group having better prognosis while the latter group included also luminal B and the majority of BRCA2-mutated tumors. The basal-complex subtype displayed extensive genomic homogeneity and harbored the majority of BRCA1-mutated tumors. The 17q12 subtype comprised mostly HER2-amplified and HER2-enriched subtype tumors and had the worst prognosis. The amplifier and mixed subtypes contained tumors from all gene expression subtypes, the former being enriched for 8p12-amplified cases while the mixed subtype included many tumors with predominantly DNA copy number losses and poor prognosis. Overall design: Genomic profiling of 359 breast tumors using tiling BAC aCGH. A number of cases were hybridized as replicates or replicate as dye-swaps.
