Project description:Meningiomas are one of the most common adult brain tumors. For most patients, surgical excision is curative. However, up to 20% recur. Currently, the molecular determinants predicting recurrence and malignant transformation are lacking. We performed retrospective global genetic and genomic analysis of 85 meningioma samples of various grades. Copy number alterations were assessed by 100K single-nucleotide polymorphism arrays and correlated with gene expression, proliferation indices and clinical outcome. In addition to chromosome 22q loss, which was detected in the majority of clinical samples, chromosome 6q and 14q loss was significantly more common in recurrent tumors and was associated with anaplastic histology. Five "classes" of meningiomas were detected by gene expression analysis that correlated with copy number alterations, recurrent status and malignant histology. These classes more accurately identified recurrent tumors relative to Ki-67 index and extent of surgical resection, and highlight substantial expression heterogeneity between meningiomas. These data offer the most complete description of the genomic landscape of meningiomas, and provide broad genomic information that may be used to further stratify meningioma patients into prognostic risk groups.

These data offer the most complete description of the genomic landscape of meningiomas and provide a set of tools that could be used to more accurately stratify meningioma patients into prognostic risk groups. Tumor biopsies from 43 female and 25 male subjects with sporadic meningioma were identified from the UCLA Neuro-oncology Program Tissue Bank through institutional review board approved protocols. 43 tumors were designated "benign" WHO I, 19 tumors were "atypical" WHO II, and 6 were "anaplastic" WHO III. Gene expression analysis was performed on the 68 tumor biopsies.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Genomic studies of high-grade/progressive meningiomas have reported a heterogeneous mutation spectrum, identifying few recurrently mutated genes. Most studies have been underpowered to detect genomic subclasses of aggressive meningiomas due to relatively small number of available samples. Here, we present a genomic survey of one of the largest multi-institutional cohorts of high-grade/progressive meningiomas to date. METHODS:850 high-grade/progressive meningiomas, including 441 WHO grade 2 and 176 WHO grade 3 meningiomas and 220 progressive WHO grade 1 meningiomas, were tested as part of a clinical testing program by hybridization capture of 406 cancer-related genes to detect base substitutions, indels, amplifications, deletions, and rearrangements. Information from pathology reports, histopathology review, and patient clinical data was assessed. RESULTS:Genomic analyses converged to identify at least three distinct patterns of biologically-aggressive meningiomas. The first and most common contained NF2-mutant tumors (n?=?426, 50%), was associated with male sex (64.4% %, p?=?0.0001) and often harbored additional mutations in CDKN2A/B (24%), and the chromatin regulators ARID1A (9%), and KDM6A (6%). A second group (NF2-agnostic) featured TERT promoter (TERTp; n?=?56) or TP53 mutations (n?=?25) and were either NF2-mutant or wild-type, and displayed no association with either sex (p?=?0.39). The remaining group generally lacked NF2 mutations, and accounted for 40% of the cases-with three subgroups. One consistent primarily of grade 3 lesions harboring alterations in chromatin regulators BAP1 (n?=?22) or PBRM1 (n?=?16). A second subgroup contained AKT1 (n?=?26), PIK3CA (n?=?14) and SMO (n?=?7) mutant skull-based meningiomas, and a third mixed subgroup included 237 meningiomas with a heterogeneous spectrum of low frequency and non-recurrent alterations. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings indicate that the patterns of genomic alterations in high-grade/progressive meningiomas commonly group into three different categories. The most common NF2-associated canonical group frequently harbored CDKN2A/B alterations, which is potentially amenable to targeted therapies. An NF2-agnostic group harbored frequent TERTp and TP53 mutations. The final subclass, distinct from the canonical NF2 mutant associated pathway, was partly characterized by BAP1/PBRM1 alterations (rhabdoid/papillary histology) or skull-base disease. Overall, these data increase our understanding of the pathobiology of high-grade/progressive meningiomas and can guide the design of clinical trials.

Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's instructions on DNA extracted from flash frozen meningioma tumors.

Project description:PurposeOvarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is usually diagnosed at late stage. We investigated whether late-stage HGSC has unique genomic characteristics consistent with acquisition of evolutionary advantage compared with early-stage tumors.Experimental designWe performed targeted next-generation sequencing and shallow whole-genome sequencing (sWGS) on pretreatment samples from 43 patients with FIGO stage I-IIA HGSC to investigate somatic mutations and copy-number (CN) alterations (SCNA). We compared results to pretreatment samples from 52 patients with stage IIIC/IV HGSC from the BriTROC-1 study.ResultsAge of diagnosis did not differ between early-stage and late-stage patients (median 61.3 years vs. 62.3 years, respectively). TP53 mutations were near-universal in both cohorts (89% early-stage, 100% late-stage), and there were no significant differences in the rates of other somatic mutations, including BRCA1 and BRCA2. We also did not observe cohort-specific focal SCNA that could explain biological behavior. However, ploidy was higher in late-stage (median, 3.0) than early-stage (median, 1.9) samples. CN signature exposures were significantly different between cohorts, with greater relative signature 3 exposure in early-stage and greater signature 4 in late-stage. Unsupervised clustering based on CN signatures identified three clusters that were prognostic.ConclusionsEarly-stage and late-stage HGSCs have highly similar patterns of mutation and focal SCNA. However, CN signature analysis showed that late-stage disease has distinct signature exposures consistent with whole-genome duplication. Further analyses will be required to ascertain whether these differences reflect genuine biological differences between early-stage and late-stage or simply time-related markers of evolutionary fitness.

Project description:AIM:Despite current treatments, high-grade meningiomas continue to have a poor prognosis. Immunotherapy targeting immune checkpoints, such as PD-L1, has demonstrated significant success in controlling numerous malignancies. In this study, we investigate the extent of systemic and local immunosuppression in meningiomas to assess the potential benefit of immune checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of high-grade meningiomas. METHODS:Peripheral blood was collected from patients undergoing resection of meningiomas (WHO grade I, n?=?18; grade II, n?=?25; grade III, n?=?10). Immunosuppressive myeloid cells (CD45+CD11b+PD-L1+), myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) (CD11b+CD33+HLA-DRlow), and regulatory T cells (Tregs) (CD3+CD4+CD25+FoxP3+) were quantified through flow cytometry. Tissue sections from the same patients were assessed for PD-L1 expression and T cell infiltration via immunohistochemistry. RESULTS:Patients with grade III meningiomas demonstrated increased peripheral monocyte PD-L1 compared to patients with grade I/II meningiomas and healthy controls. Peripheral MDSC abundance was increased in grades II and III meningioma patients. PD-L1 staining of meningioma tissue demonstrated increased positivity in grade III meningiomas. Intratumoral PD-L1 was not associated with progression-free survival. High-grade meningiomas had increased T-cell infiltration. However, a significant proportion of these T cells were exhausted PD1+ T cells and immunosuppressive Tregs. CONCLUSIONS:Patients with meningiomas exhibit signs of peripheral immunosuppression, including increased PD-L1 on myeloid cells and elevated MDSC abundance proportional to tumor grade. Additionally, the tumors express substantial PD-L1 proportional to tumor grade. These results suggest a role for immune checkpoint inhibitors targeting the PD-L1/PD-1 pathway in combination with standard therapies for the treatment of high-grade meningiomas.
