Project description:Background: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCRT) is the treatment of choice in advanced rectal cancer, even though there are many patients who will not benefit from it. There are still no effective methods for predicting which patients will respond or not. The present study aimed to define the genomic profile of rectal tumors and to identify alterations that are predictive of response in order to optimize therapeutic strategies. Methods: Forty-eight candidates for NCRT were recruited and their pretherapy biopsies analyzed by array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH). Pathologic response was evaluated by tumor regression grade (TRG).Results: Both Smoothing and Hidden Markov Model (HMM) approaches identified similar alterations, with a prevalence of DNA gains. Non responsive patients had a different alteration profile from responsive ones, with a higher number of genome changes mainly located on 2q21, 7q21, 7q36, 13q12, 13q32-34, 16p13, 17p12 chromosomal regions. Conclusion: This exploratory study suggests that an in depth characterization of chromosomal alterations by aCGH would provide useful predictive information about response to NCRT and help to optimize therapy in rectal cancer patients. 48 samples included in the study were analyzed on whole genome BAC arrays with the aim to characterize genomic alterations and correlate them with the tumor response to therapy. The case series was composed by 15%,81% and 4% of uT2, uT3 and uT4 tumors, respectively. At the diagnosis 56% of patients had uN0 tumors and 44% uN+. 30%,13%, 23% and 34% of patients reached/mantained respectively ypT0, ypT1, ypT2 and ypT3. With regard to response to NCRT, according to TRG criteria proposed by Dworak, two group were defined: non responders (TRG0-2= 56%) and responders (TRG3-4=44%). Clinical and pathological parameters: uT: pre-therapy stage determined by ultrasounds techniques uN: pre-therapy lymph node status determined by ultrasounds techniques ypT: pathologic stage after a neoadjuvant treatment ypN: pathologic lymph node status after a neoadjuvant treatment

Project description:Preoperative chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery has been proved to improve esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients’ survival in comparison with surgery alone. However, the outcomes of CRT are heterogeneous, and no clinical or pathological method could predict CRT response. We aim to identify miRNA markers for ESCC CRT-response prediction through miRNA expression analyses. MiRNA expression analyses were performed on pretreatment cancer biopsies from 28 ESCCs who received neoadjuvant CRT and surgery using Agilent human miRNA microarrays based on miRBase (release 18.0) GeneChip®.

Project description:Locally advanced rectal cancer transcriptomic-based secretome analysis according to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy response
| PRJNA510936 | ENA
Project description:Most patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) present incomplete pathological response (pIR) to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT). Despite the efforts to predict treatment response using tumor-molecular features, as differentially expressed genes, no molecule has proved to be a strong biomarker. The tumor secretome analysis is a promising strategy for biomarkers identification, which can be assessed using transcriptomic data. Here, we performed transcriptomic-based secretome analysis to select potentially secreted proteins using an in silico approach. The tumor expression profile of 28 LARC biopsies carefully selected and collected before nCRT was compared with normal rectal tissues (NT). The expression profile showed no significant differences between cases with complete (pCR) and incomplete response to nCRT. Genes with increased expression (pCR = 106 and pIR = 357) were used for secretome analysis based on public databases (Vesiclepedia, Human Cancer Secretome Database and Plasma and Proteome Database). Seventeen potentially secreted candidates (pCR=1, pIR=13 and 3 in both groups) were further investigated in two independent datasets (TCGA and GSE68204) confirming their over-expression in LARC. The potential secreted biomarkers were also confirmed as associated with the nCRT response (GSE68204). These putative proteins are candidates to be assessed in liquid biopsies aiming a personalized treatment in LARC patients.

Project description:Importance: Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) is the standard of care for advanced rectal cancer. Yet, predicting response to CRT remains an unmet clinical challenge. Objective: To investigate the transcriptomic determinants to predict response to neoadjuvant CRT and survival in patients with advanced rectal cancer. Design: A single-center, retrospective, cohort study. Setting: A comprehensive cancer center. Participants: Pre-treatment biopsies from 298 patients with rectal cancer, who were later treated with neoadjuvant CRT between 2004 and 2020, were analyzed by RNA sequencing. Main measures and outcomes: Transcriptional subtyping was performed by consensus molecular subtype (CMS) classification. Immune cell infiltration was assessed using MCP-counter scores and single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Patients with surgical specimens of tumor regression grade (TRG) 3-4 or who were managed by the watch-and-wait approach for more than 3 years were defined as good responders. Results: Patients classified as CMS1 (6.4%) had a significantly higher rate of good responders; albeit survival was comparable among the four subtypes. Good responders exhibited an enrichment in various immune-related pathways (IFNg and a responses, allograft rejection, IL6 STAT3 signaling during acute phase response, and inflammation), as determined by ssGSEA. MCP-counter scores for cytotoxic lymphocytes were significantly higher for good responders than non-responders (p = 0.0003), and significantly higher for responders than non-responders in GSE109057 (p = 0.0137), GSE87211 (p = 0.0092), and GSE45404 (p = 0.0327) datasets. Cytotoxic lymphocyte MCP-counter score was thus considered an independent predictor of response to CRT, as determined in the multivariable Cox analysis (OR 3.810 [95% CI 1.820-7.970]; p = 0.0004). Multivariable Cox analysis, including post-operative pathological factors, revealed cytotoxic lymphocyte MCP-counter score to be independently associated with recurrence-free survival (HR 0.382 [95% CI 0.158-0.923]; p = 0.0325) and overall survival (HR 0.157 [95% CI 0.030-0.827]; p = 0.0290). ssGSEA showed significantly higher levels of four subpopulations of cytotoxic cells (effector memory CD8 T, natural killer T, natural killer, and activated CD8 T cells) among good responders than non-responders. Conclusions and Relevance: Cytotoxic lymphocyte score, as computed by RNA sequencing, could be a useful marker for predicting response to CRT and survival among patients with rectal cancer.
