Clinical Application of an Automated Liquid Biopsy Platform for Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer

ABSTRACT: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is among the most preventable cancers when precancerous lesions are detected at an early stage. Current screening methods for CRC require bowel prep or stool-based testing that are inconvenient, resulting in low compliance. Stool based tests have limited sensitivity for the detection of precancerous lesions. The CMx platform has been showed to be able to the detection of Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) in high sensitivity and specificity. In published studies, circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) are captured and quantified in advanced-stages of colorectal cancer. In order to detect early and pre-cancer circulating tumor cells, we have developed an Automated Liquid Biopsy Platform that improves the detection of CTCs in early cancer stages. Therefore, this study goals are: 1) to establish a standard detection process utilizing the Automated Liquid Biopsy Platform. 2) Parallel comparison of laboratory manual operation and Automated Liquid Biopsy Platform. 3) Verify the feasibility of use of an Automated Liquid Biopsy Platform in the clinical setting.

EpCAM Based Capture Detects and Recovers Circulating Tumor Cells From Subtypes of Breast Cancer Except Claudin-low

Project description:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) potential utility as a liquid biopsy is of great interest in breast cancer. The goal of this study is to use RNA-seq to show that we can capture CTCs using EpCAM based gating for most of the breast cancer subtypes and detection of breast cancer specific genese are independent of sequencing plateformt. Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 25 million sequence reads per sample to the hg 18. Data analysis revealed a significant detction of breast cancer specific genes in CTCs and such signature genes overlap between two sets of data yet provided complementary insights in transcriptome profiling.

Tumor cell-based liquid biopsy using high-throughput microfluidic enrichment of entire leukapheresis product

Project description:Circulating Tumor Cells (CTCs) encompass multiple analytes, interrogated by sampling blood from patients with cancer. However, the clinical utility of tumor cell-based liquid biopsy has proven to be limited since CTCs are rare, and current technologies cannot process larger blood volumes required to isolate a sufficient number of tumor cells. We have described a high-throughput microfluidic prototype utilizing high-flow channels and amplification of cell sorting forces through magnetic lenses. Here, we apply this technology to analyze patient-derived leukapheresis products, interrogating a mean blood volume of 5.83 liters from patients with metastatic cancer and achieving a median of 2,799 CTCs per patient. Isolation of many CTCs from individual patients enables characterization of their morphological and molecular heterogeneity, including cell and nuclear size and RNA expression. It also allows robust detection of gene copy number variation (CNV), a definitive cancer marker with potential diagnostic applications. High-volume microfluidic enrichment of CTCs constitutes a new dimension in liquid biopsies.

Hexokinase 2 detects cytokeratin negative circulating tumor cells in lung adenocarcinoma

Project description:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) represent the molecular characteristics of tumor sites and travel in the blood for seeding distant metastases. "EpCAM+/pan-cytokeratin (CK)+/CD45-/DAPI+" has been widely accepted as a CTC definition, especially in breast cancer, prostate cancer and colorectal cancer. However, reports on CTC detection in non-small cell lung cancer are limited due to a lack of efficient CTC marker. We describe hexokinase 2 (HK2) that assays elevated glycolysis of cancer cells, called Warburg effect, as a new marker for CTC detection in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), especially the CK negative CTCs. Single-cell sequencing was used to confirm the malignancy of putative CTCs by detecting genome-wide copy number alternations characteristic of malignant cells. We employed this marker in a variety of liquid biopsies from LUAD patients, including peripheral blood, pleural effusion and cerebrospinal fluid.

Detection and isolation of circulating tumor cells from breast cancer patients using CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1) Detection and isolation of circulating tumor cells from breast cancer patients using CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1) Detection and isolation of circulating tumor cells from breast cancer patients using CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1)

Project description:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) and disseminated tumour cells with mesenchymal traits are difficult to detect by epithelial marker proteins. Particularly, triple negative breast cancers (TNBC) that are prone to therapy failure release a subpopulation of circulating tumour cells (CTCs) with mesenchymal traits. To provide tools that support their detection and analysis, the cell line BC-M1 established from disseminated tumour cells in the bone marrow of a breast cancer patient and a bone metastasis subline of MDA-MB-231 were analysed. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed high levels of CUB domain-containing protein 1 (CDCP1) in BC-M1. CDCP1 was found in other carcinoma cell lines (MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-468) and other DTC cell lines (LC-M1, PC-E1) as well. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were virtually negative for CDCP1 by Western Blot and immunofluorescent staining. Presence of CDCP1 in CTCs was confirmed by CellSearch. Here, CDCP1 positive CTCs were detected in eight of 30 analysed breast cancer patients. For the isolation of CTCs from the blood of breast cancer patients, we established a sandwich magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS). The extracellular domain of CDCP1 served for cell catching and the cytoplasmic domain of CDCP1 for immunofluorescent detection of CDCP1 in CTCs. We showed that the MACS approach is suitable for the isolation of EpCam/keratin negative breast cancer cells from the blood and isolated CDCP1 positive CTCs from breast cancer patients by MACS. Hence, our approach is particularly suited for the detection and isolation of CTCs from TNBC when low EpCam or keratin levels limit the application of conventional approaches.

An Optofluidic Real-Time Cell Sorter for Longitudinal CTC Studies in Mouse Models of Cancer

Project description:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) play a fundamental role in cancer progression. However, in mice, limited blood volume and the rarity of CTCs in the bloodstream preclude longitudinal, in-depth studies of these cells using existing liquid biopsy techniques. Here, we present an optofluidic system that continuously collects fluorescently-labeled CTCs from a genetically-engineered mouse model for several hours per day over multiple days or weeks. The system is based on a microfluidic cell-sorting chip connected serially to an un-anesthetized mouse via an implanted arteriovenous shunt. Pneumatically-controlled microfluidic valves capture CTCs as they flow through the device and CTC-depleted blood is returned back to the mouse via the shunt. To demonstrate the utility of our system, we profile CTCs isolated longitudinally from animals over a four-day treatment with the BET inhibitor JQ1 using single-cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) and show that our approach eliminates potential biases driven by inter-mouse heterogeneity that can occur when CTCs are collected across different mice. The CTC isolation and sorting technology presented here provides a research tool to help reveal details of how CTCs change over time, allowing studies to credential changes in CTCs as biomarkers of drug response and facilitating future studies to understand the role of CTCs in metastasis.

Transcription profiling of circulating tumor cells (CTC) from peripheral blood from patients with breast and prostate cancer

Project description:In many patients with solid tumors circulating tumor cells (CTCs), that form metastases, can be identified in peripheral blood. Detection and characterization of CTCs in cancer patients provide a unique opportunity to predict patient survival, select and monitor the efficacy of treatment as well as to gain insights into the cascade of metastatic events. Here, we describe a novel approach to identify CTC-specific molecular markers. Using an integrated platform for immunomagnetic enrichment and immunofluorescent identification of CTCs, blood samples with large numbers of CTCs were identified from patients with colorectal, prostate and breast cancers. Despite enrichment, CTCs are still outnumbered by "nonspecifically" captured leukocytes. In order to determine gene expression profile for CTCs, "background" gene expression signature of white blood cells must be taken into account. To this end, following enrichment for CTCs, RNA was also extracted from the remaining CTC-depleted blood samples. The following samples were used to generate the global expression profiles for CTCs: 1a) SAMPLE170711SUB735: CTC-enriched blood sample from a patient with breast cancer). 3700 CTCs were identified per 7.5 ml of peripheral blood in this patient. 1b) SAMPLE170712SUB735: Corresponding CTC-depleted blood sample for the above patient with breast cancer. 2a) SAMPLE170829SUB750: CTC-enriched blood sample from a patient with prostate cancer. 647 CTCs were identified per 7.5 ml of peripheral blood in this patient. 2b) SAMPLE170830SUB750: Corresponding CTC-depleted blood sample for the above patient with prostate cancer. 3a) SAMPLE170831SUB751: CTC-enriched sample from a patient with colorectal cancer. 180 CTCs were identified per 7.5 ml of peripheral blood in this patient. 3b) SAMPLE170832SUB751: Corresponding CTC-depleted blood sample for the above patient with colorectal cancer.

Single-Cell Identification of Melanoma Biomarkers in Circulating Tumor Cells

Project description:The current standard for investigating tumors is surgical biopsy, which is costly, invasive, and difficult to perform serially. As an adjunct, circulating tumor cells (CTCs)—cells that have broken away from the primary tumor or metastatic sites—can be obtained from a blood draw and offer the potential for obtaining serial genetic information and serving as biomarkers. Here, we detail the potential for melanoma CTCs to serve as biomarkers and discuss a clinically viable methodology for single-cell CTC isolation and analysis that overcomes previous limitations. We explore the use of melanoma CTC biomarkers by isolating and performing single-cell RNA sequencing on CTCs from melanoma patients. We then compared transcriptional profiles of single melanoma CTCs against A375 cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells to identify unique genes differentially regulated in circulating melanoma tumor cells. The information that can be obtained via analysis of these CTCs has significant potential in disease tracking.
