Evaluating Liquid Biopsies for Methylomic Profiling of Prostate Cancer


ABSTRACT: Liquid biopsies offer significant potential for informing on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance via minimally invasive serial monitoring of genetic alterations. Although the cancer epigenome is a central driving force in most neoplasia, how well the tumour methylome can be monitored via liquid biopsies is relatively unknown. In this first of its kind study we made a direct comparison of two liquid biopsies: urine and blood, asking how well they represent the tumor methylome. Utilizing the Infinium Methylation EPIC BeadChip, we profiled DNA methylation in tissue, urine sediment and cell-free circulating DNA from four men with advanced stage prostate cancer. We show that both urine and plasma are viable surrogates for tumor tissue biopsies, capturing 78.63 and 62.21% of tumor-specific methylation alterations, respectively. We conclude that urine is an easily accessible and sensitive biofluid for the study of prostate cancer epigenomic alterations.
