Changes in the gene mutation profiles of circulating tumor DNA detected using CAPP-Seq in neoadjuvant chemotherapy-treated advanced ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT: Cancer Personalized Profiling by deep Sequencing (CAPP-Seq) is a novel ultrasensitive next-generation sequencing-based approach that is used to detect circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). The aim of the present study was to compare the gene mutation profiles and blood tumor mutation burden (bTMB) measured between pre- and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), utilizing CAPP-seq for plasma ctDNA in patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The current study included 10 patients (6 NAC-sensitive and 4 NAC-resistant) clinically diagnosed as having stage III or IV ovarian cancer and were administered NAC between May 2017 and February 2019. The plasma ctDNA samples were collected at pre- and post-NAC, and comprehensive gene mutation analysis was performed using CAPP-seq. In 5 out of 6 NAC-sensitive cases, the variant allele frequency (VAF) of non-synonymous somatic mutations decreased following NAC. In 2 out of the 4 NAC-resistant cases, the VAF of non-synonymous somatic mutations increased, and new somatic mutations emerged following NAC. In regard to TP53 mutation, the rate of TP53 mutation in the NAC-resistant cases was significantly higher compared with NAC-sensitive cases. Finally, the bTMB decreased significantly after NAC treatment in the NAC-sensitive cases, even though there were no significant differences in the pretreatment bTMB levels between the NAC-sensitive and NAC-resistant cases. These results indicated that gene mutation can be profiled and monitored using liquid biopsy-based CAPP-Seq in patients with advanced ovarian cancer with NAC treatment, and TP53 mutation in the ctDNA and bTMB may be novel biomarkers that can be used for patient monitoring during NAC treatment.

Project description:Study objectiveTo evaluate the effect of surgical approach on overall survival (OS) for women with advanced, epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and determine the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with surgical approach.DesignThe primary exposure was surgical approach to interval cytoreduction, minimally invasive versus open, and was evaluated by intention to treat. Primary outcome was OS. Associations were examined using Chi-squared tests, Wilcoxon rank sum tests, and multivariate logistic regression. Survival analysis was performed with Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox proportional hazards.SettingThe National Cander Database was used to identify eligible patients.PatientsWomen diagnosed with stage IIIC/IV EOC from 2010-2016.InterventionsPatients were included if they were treated with NACT within 90 days of diagnosis before interval cytoreductive surgery (CRS).Measurements and main resultsA total of 8085 women were identified; 6713 (83%) underwent open interval CRS, and 1372 (17%) underwent minimally invasive interval CRS. The proportion undergoing minimally invasive CRS after NACT increased from 2% in 2010 to 11% in 2016, a nearly 6-fold increase. There was no difference in OS between women who underwent minimally invasive and open interval CRS (median OS 36.5 vs 35.2 months, HR 0.94, 95% CI, 0.86-1.04). After adjusting for demographic and clinical variables, including age, race, ethnicity, income, and Charlson/Deyo score, no difference in OS was observed (HR 0.95, 95% CI, 0.86-1.04). Women of older age (OR 1.35, 95% CI, 1.05-1.74) and Hispanic ethnicity (OR 1.46, 95% CI, 1.14-1.88) had increased odds of receiving minimally invasive CRS after NACT, whereas low income (<$38000/year) women had decreased odds (OR 0.76, 95% CI, 0.60-0.97, p = .03). Length of stay differed for patients undergoing minimally invasive versus open interval CRS (3 vs 5 days, p <.01), but there was no difference in need for postoperative readmission.ConclusionsMinimally invasive CRS has similar survival outcomes to open CRS among women with EOC who have undergone NACT.

Project description:Approximately 70% of women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) are diagnosed with advanced stage disease, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The standard approach to treating patients with advanced EOC remains primary debulking surgery (PDS) followed by chemotherapy. EOC is one of the most sensitive of all solid tumors to cytotoxic drugs, with over 80% of women showing a response to standard chemotherapy combined with taxane and platinum. Furthermore, residual disease is a major prognostic factor for survival. On the basis of the clinical features, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS) is considered to be an alternative treatment option to standard treatment in patients unable to undergo complete resection during PDS. Noninferiority of NACT-IDS to PDS has been demonstrated in some randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses. NACT would also lead to improved quality of life (QOL) of patients, however there are still problems to be solved in the treatment strategy. The uncertainty of perioperative visual assessment of tumor dissemination after NACT has been reported. In addition, several papers have shown the possibility that NACT induces platinum resistance. Furthermore, a notable risk associated with NACT is that patients with significant side effects and refractory disease will lose the opportunity for debulking surgery. Appropriate selection of the patient cohort for NACT is an important issue. Bevacizumab (Bev) is active in patients with advanced EOC. However, the use of Bev is not recommended in the neoadjuvant setting. Bev has a specific adverse event profile that needs to be considered, especially for surgical management, such as gastrointestinal perforation, hemorrhage, and thromboembolic events. NACT could be an alternative treatment option in patients with stage III or IV EOC. However, further studies are needed to clarify the precise role of NACT in the management of advanced EOC.
