Clinical subtyping of cancer from plasma based on comprehensive epigenomic profiling

ABSTRACT: While circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assays are increasingly used to inform clinical decisions in cancer care, they have limited ability to identify the transcriptional programs that govern cancer phenotypes and their dynamic changes during the course of disease. To address these limitations, we developed a method for comprehensive epigenomic profiling of cancer from 1mL of patient plasma. Using an immunoprecipitation-based approach targeting histone modifications and DNA methylation, we measured 1,268 epigenomic profiles in plasma from 433 individuals with one of 15 cancers. Our assay provided a robust proxy for transcriptional activity, allowing us to infer the expression levels of diagnostic markers and drug targets, measure the activity of therapeutically targetable transcription factors, and detect epigenetic mechanisms of resistance. This proof-of-concept study in advanced cancers shows how plasma epigenomic profiling could unlock clinically actionable information that is currently accessible only via direct tissue sampling.

Cerebrospinal fluid cell-free DNA methylomes subtyping pediatric medulloblastoma

Project description:Medulloblastoma (MB) is an embryonal tumor of the cerebellum and a highly malignant childhood brain tumor. Cell-free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with brain tumors faithfully represent genomic alterations of brain tumors. Distinct epigenetic signatures among subgroups of MB allow us to detect epigenetic alterations in CSF to aid classify and guide therapy of MB tumors. Here, we evaluate DNA methylation of ctDNA derived from small amount of CSF (200 µL) and matched tumor DNA from four subtypes of MB patients. We find highly concordance of DNA methylation between CSF ctDNA and tumor DNA in a subtype manner. Our results show that CSF ctNDA methylation can be a minimal invasive precisely method to assess epigenetic alterations of MB in a subtype manner, which is complementary to current diagnoses of MB tumors.

Molecular subtyping of breast cancer by transcription profiling

Project description:Breast cancer was one of the first cancer types where molecular subtyping led to explanation of interpersonal heterogeneity and resulted in improvement of treatment regimen. Several multigene classifiers have been developed and in particular those defining molecular signatures of early breast cancers possess significant prognostic information. Hence since 2014, molecular subtyping of primary breast cancers was implemented as a part of routine diagnostics with direct impact of therapy assignment. In this study, we evaluate direct and potential benefits of molecular subtyping in low-risk breast cancers as well as present the advantages of a robust molecular signature in regard to patient work-up among high-risk breast cancers.

Gastric Cancer Subtyping (Australian Patient Cohort)

Project description:Genome-wide mRNA expression profiles of 70 primary gastric tumors from the Australian patient cohort. Like many cancers, gastric adenocarcinomas (gastric cancers) show considerable heterogeneity between patients. Thus, there is intense interest in using gene expression profiles to discover subtypes of gastric cancers with particular biological properties or therapeutic vulnerabilities. Identification of such subtypes could generate insights into the mechanisms of cancer progression or lay the foundation for personalized treatments. Here we report a robust gene-xpression-based clustering of a large collection of gastric adenocarcinomas from Singaporean patients [GSE34942 and GSE15459]. We developed and validated a classifier for the three subtypes in Australian patient cohort. Profiling of 70 primary gastric tumors on Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. All tumors were collected with approvals from Peter MacCallum Cancer Center, Australia; the Research Ethics Review Committee; and signed patient informed consent.

Diagnostic accuracy of liquid biopsy in endometrial cancer

Project description:INTRODUCTION. Liquid biopsies are a minimally invasive collection of a patient body fluid sample. In oncology, they offer several advantages compared to traditional tissue biopsies. However, potential of this method in endometrial cancer (EC) remains poorly explored. We studied the utility of tumor educated platelets (TEPs) and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) for preoperative EC diagnosis, including histology determination. MATERIALS AND METHODS. TEPs from 297 subjects (53 EC patients, 40 patients with benign gynecologic conditions and 204 healthy women) were RNA-sequenced. DNA sequencing was performed in 519 primary tumor tissue samples and in16 plasma samples. Artificial intelligence was applied to sample classification. RESULTS. Platelet-dedicated classifier yielded AUC of 93.1% in test set when discriminating between healthy subjects and cancer patients. However, the discrimination between endometrial cancer and benign gynecologic conditions was relatively low, with AUC of 60.7%. ctDNA-dedicated classifier discriminated primary tumor tissue samples with AUC of 91.4% and ctDNA blood samples with AUC of 87.5%. CONCLUSIONS Liquid biopsies show potential in EC diagnosis. Both TEPs and ctDNA profiles coupled with artificial intelligence constitute a source of useful information. Further work, involving more cases, is warranted.

Circulating tumor DNA for monitoring classic Hodgkin lymphoma patients: correlation with FDG-PET/CT

Project description:Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a biomarker of disease activity in classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients are still not well-defined. By profiling primary tumors and ctDNA, we identified common variants between primary tumors and longitudinal plasma samples in most of the cases, confirming high PBatial and temporal heterogeneity. Though ctDNA analyses mirrored HRS cell genetics overall, the prevalence of variants shows that none of them can be used as a single biomarker. Conversely, the estimation of hGE/mL, based in total ctDNA quantification, reflects disease activity and is almost perfectly correlated with standard parameters such as PET/CT that are associated with refractoriness.
