IDH1/2 Mutations Predict Shorter Survival in Chondrosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Background. Recent studies have shown that isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2)- activating mutations occur in a variety of cancers, including acute myeloid leukaemia, gliomas, and chondrosarcomas (CHS)s. The effect of IDH1/2 mutation on overall survival (OS) has not been reported in CHS. The aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of known cancer-related gene mutations in CHS, as well as their prognostic role in patient survival. Methods. DNA from FFPE samples of 80 patients (F:M- 1:1.3; mean age: 58 years; range 27-86) with histologically confirmed CHS (G1:29; G2:34; G3:17) was subjected to library preparation with the Ion AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2 and sequenced on the PGM Ion Torrent. Results. Among the clinical features only histological grade influenced OS. Deep sequencing identified 1784 single nucleotide variants. Of them, 426 were considered to be pathogenic or probably pathogenic. Activating IDH1/2 mutations were found in 27 patients (34%) including 17 R132 IDH1 (21%), 10 R172 IDH2 (13%) and 3 R140 IDH2 variants (4%). Three patients had concurrent IDH1 and IDH2 mutations. The R140 IDH2 mutant has not been reported to date in CHS patients. OS for CHS patients with IDH1/2 mutations was significantly lower than in patients without mutations (93% vs 64%; p<0.001). No other genetic feature of the Cancer Hotspot Panel had an impact on OS. Conclusions. In CHS, IDH1/2-mutation status and the histological aggressiveness of the CHS are important predictors for OS. The R140 IDH2 may also be a novel target for the treatment of CHS patients.

Project description:Dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma (DDCS) is a rare high-grade chondrosarcoma characterized by a well-differentiated chondrosarcoma (WDCS) component that abruptly transitions to a high-grade, noncartilaginous sarcomatous component. To date, the molecular pathogenesis of DDCS and its distinction from conventional chondrosarcoma remain poorly understood. By targeted sequencing, we examined the mutational and copy-number profiles of 18 DDCS, including macrodissected WDCS components, compared with 55 clinically sequenced conventional chondrosarcomas. In conjunction with publicly available external data, we analyzed the methylation and expression profiles of 34 DDCS and 94 conventional chondrosarcomas. Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/isocitrate dehydrogenase 2 (IDH1/IDH2) mutations were present in 36% conventional chondrosarcomas and 71% DDCS. Compared with conventional chondrosarcomas, DDCS had higher frequencies of TP53 and TERT promoter mutations and CDKN2A/B copy-number losses. Paired analysis of macrodissected WDCS and the high-grade components revealed TERT promoter mutations as early events. Despite phenotypic similarities, the percentage of genome with copy-number alterations in DDCS was significantly lower than that in other high-grade sarcomas. Differential methylation analysis revealed reduction of IDH1/IDH2-associated global hypermethylation characteristically seen in conventional chondrosarcoma and a distinct methylation profile in DDCS. The WDCS and high-grade components in DDCS showed similar methylation profiles. These CpG sites were associated with upregulated expression of genes involved in G2-M checkpoints and E2F targets. Genomic profiling revealed enrichment of TP53, TERT promoter, and CDKN2A/B alterations in DDCS. Integrated methylation and gene expression analysis revealed distinct IDH1/IDH2-associated methylation and transcriptional profiles as early events in DDCS, which may underlie the pathogenesis of dedifferentiation in chondrosarcomas.SignificanceDDCS is a rare, high-grade chondrosarcoma with a dismal prognosis. About 50%-80% of DDCS harbor IDH1/IDH2 mutations. We uncover a significant alteration of IDH-associated methylation profile in DDCS, which we propose is key to the progression to dedifferentiation. In this context, the potential effect of the use of IDH inhibitors is unclear but important to address, as clinical trials of selective IDH1 inhibitors showed worse outcome in DDCS.
