Combined bioinformatic and clinical assay uncovers resistance and susceptibility mechanisms of human glioblastomas to temozolomide and identifies new survival biomarkers outperforming MGMT promoter methylation


ABSTRACT: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive and lethal CNS tumor with only 14 months median overall survival after diagnosis and ∼5% 5-years survival rate. The treatment strategy is mainly surgery and/or radiation therapy, both combined with adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy. TMZ treatment results in methylation of DNA purine bases, where the primary cytotoxic lesion is O6-methylguanine that can be removed by DNA repair enzyme methylguanine methyltransferase (MGMT) when tumors express this protein. Historically, methylation of MGMT gene promoter is used as the major biomarker predicting individual tumor response to TMZ, but there are also additional biomarkers. However, most of them were developed using TCGA project collection of molecular profiles which were unproperly diagnosed as GBM and now need to be reclassified according to the most recent WHO CNS5 tumor classification. Here we for the first time compared biomarker potentials of MGMT methylation, expression levels of 361 DNA repair genes, and activation levels of 38 DNA repair pathways on updated TCGA and other samplings and validated the results on our experimental multicenter GBM patient cohort (n=50). We found that expression/activation levels of 7 and 6 emerging gene/pathway biomarkers served as high-quality positive (HR<0.61) and negative (HR>1.63), respectively, patient survival biomarkers, all performed significantly better than MGMT methylation. Positive survival biomarkers were enriched in the processes of ATM-dependent checkpoint activation and cell cycle arrest whereas negative – in excision DNA repair. We also built and characterized gene signature which was informative for GBM patient survival following TMZ administration (HR 0.27-0.44, p<0,0004; AUC 0.69-0.9).
