A Stem and Progenitor Cell-Derived Gene Expression Signature is Prognostic for Survival in Myelofibrosis

ABSTRACT: We hypothesized that transcriptomic features among disease-driving hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) could improve the current paradigm for risk stratification in myelofibrosis (MF). Therefore, we performed bulk RNA-seq on blood from 358 MF patients split into training and test cohorts (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02760238). Single-cell (sc) RNA-seq data from Lin-CD34+ MF HSPCs were used to guide the development of a prognostic model trained on the bulk RNA-seq data. A NanoString assay was used to validate our final model in two independent cohorts of MF patients. We identified a 24-gene weighted-sum expression score (termed MPN24) that was prognostic of overall survival (OS). In two independent cohorts of 170 and 99 MF patients, MPN24-High scoring patients had worse 5-year OS compared to MPN24-Low scoring patients (25.5% vs 86.9%, HR = 9.81, P = 4.0e-11 and 23.5% vs 75.9%, HR = 6.40, P = 1.8e-7, respectively). MPN24-High was also associated with clinical, mutation and karyotypic features known to confer adverse risk in MF. The MPN24 score retained independent prognostic significance in multivariable analysis incorporating these covariates as well as existing risk stratification models including DIPSS, DIPSS Plus, MIPSS70, and MIPSS70 Plus v2.0, adding significant prognostic value to these baseline risk stratification models (P = 1.6e-5, 4.0e-6, 1.5e-6, 5.4e-4, respectively). The MPN24 score was particularly useful in improving risk-stratification of DIPSS-Intermediate-1 and Intermediate-2 and MIPSS70 Intermediate and High-risk patients. An HSPC-derived gene expression score is associated with overall survival independent of existing clinical and genomic prognostic variables and improves risk stratification in MF.

Project description:Background: Accurate survival stratification in early-stage NSCLC could inform the use of adjuvant therapy. We developed a clinically-implementable mortality risk score incorporating distinct tumor microenvironmental gene expression signatures and clinical variables. Methods: Gene expression profiles from 1106 non-squamous NSCLCs were used for generation and internal validation of a 9-gene molecular prognostic index (MPI). Expression of the MPI genes was determined within sorted tumor cell subpopulations. A quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay was developed and validated on an independent cohort of FFPE tissues. A prognostic score using clinical variables was generated using Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) data and combined with the MPI. Results: The MPI stratified stage I patients into prognostic categories in four independent validation datasets, including three microarray and one FFPE qPCR cohorts (HR=2.4, 95% CI, 1.8-3.3, P=7x10-9 in the largest microarray cohort; and HR=2.5, 95% CI 1.1-6.0, P=.03 in stage I patients of the qPCR validation cohort). Prognostic genes were expressed in distinct tumor cell subpopulations and expression of genes implicated in cellular proliferation and stem cells portended poor outcomes, while expression of genes involved in normal lung differentiation and immune infiltration was associated with superior survival. Integrating the MPI with clinical variables conferred greatest prognostic power (HR=3.3, 95% CI 2.4-4.6; P=2x10-15 in the largest microarray cohort; and HR=3.6, 95% CI 1.5-8.8, P=.003 in stage I patients of the qPCR validation cohort). Finally, the MPI was prognostic irrespective of somatic alterations in EGFR, KRAS, TP53, and ALK. Conclusion: The MPI incorporates genes expressed in the tumor and its microenvironment, and designates risk of death for patients with early-stage non-squamous NSCLC. The MPI can be implemented clinically using qPCR assays on FFPE tissues and a composite model integrating the MPI with clinical variables provides the most accurate risk stratification.
