Mosaic BRAF fusions are a recurrent cause of congenital melanocytic naevi targetable by MEK inhibition

Project description:Among children with multiple congenital melanocytic naevi (CMN), 25% have no established genetic cause. Here, we study 169 CMN patients, 38 of whom were double wild-type for NRAS/BRAF mutations. Nineteen of these 38 patients had sufficient tissue to undergo RNAseq, which revealed mosaic BRAF fusions in 11/19 patients and mosaic RAF1 fusions in 1/19. These findings offer a genetic diagnosis to an additional group of patients opening the possibility for treatment options.

NTRK3 kinase fusions in melanocytic tumors

Project description:We analyzed the copy number profiles of clinical samples of diagnostically difficult melanocytic tumors. Of 1202 cases, 22 cases demonstrated relative gain of the 5' portion of NTRK3. We further performed DNA or RNA sequencing on 12 of these cases and identified ETV6-NTRK3, MYO5A-NTRK3 and MYH9-NTRK3 fusions in the 8 cases in this cohort. Analysis of genomic copy number of melanocytic tumors versus commericial pooled normal control.

Genotypic and gene expression studies in Congenital Melanocytic Nevi: insight into initial step of tumoral melanogenesis

Project description:Large Congenital Melanocytic Naevi have a higher propensity to malignant transformation compared to acquired naevi. They thus represent a good model for studying initial steps of melanocarcinogenesis. We have performed genotypic (karyotype, FISH and mutational analyses) and differential expression studies on a large cohort of medium (n=3) and large (n=24) congenital melanocytic naevi. Unlike malignant melanoma, chromosomal abnormalities were rare and single, a feature probably reflecting the benignity of these lesions. Mutational screening showed a high frequency of NRAS mutations in our series, while BRAF mutations were less common. Differential expression study between tumoral and normal melanocytes did not show significant alterations of cellular processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration/invasion, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and immune/inflammatory responses. However, significant down-regulation of genes involved in pigmentation and up-regulation of genes playing a role in DNA protection were observed. Lastly, our micro-arrays displayed up-regulation of genes mediating chemoresistance in cancer. As alteration of pigmentation mechanisms can trigger oxidative damage, increased expression of genes involved in maintenance of DNA integrity might reflect the ability of naevocytic cells to self protection against cellular stress. Furthermore, the observed alterations linked to chemoresistance might partially account for the well known inefficacy of chemotherapy in malignant melanoma. Keywords: cell type comparison

Fusion partners influence cellular and molecular phenotypes of oncogenic BRAF fusions

Project description:Fusion genes can be oncogenic drivers in a variety of cancer types and represent potential targets for targeted therapy. The BRAF gene is frequently involved in oncogenic fusions, with fusion frequencies of 0.2-3% throughout different cancers. However, BRAF fusions rarely occur in the same gene configuration, potentially challenging personalized therapy design. In particular, the influence that is imposed by the wide variety of fusion partners on the oncogenic role of BRAF during tumor growth and drug response is unknown. Here, we used patient-derived colorectal cancer organoids to functionally characterize and cross-compare previously identified BRAF fusions containing various partner genes (AGAP3, DLG1 and TRIM24) with respect to cellular behaviour, downstream signaling activation and response to targeted therapies. We demonstrate that 5’ partner choice of BRAF fusions affects their subcellular localization and intracellular signaling capacity. In particular the DLG1-BRAF fusion protein showed distinct localization to the plasma membrane and exhibited increased activation of downstream MAPK signaling under unperturbed conditions. Moreover, phosphoproteomics and RNA sequencing identified distinct subsets of affected signaling pathways and altered gene expression of BRAF fusions. The different BRAF fusions exhibited varying sensitivities to simultaneous targeted inhibition of MEK and the EGF receptor family. However, all BRAF fusions conveyed resistance to targeted monotherapy against the EGF receptor family, suggesting that BRAF fusions should be screened alongside other MAPK pathway alterations to identify mCRC patients to exclude from cetuximab treatment

Recurrent BRAF kinase fusions in melanocytic tumors offer an opportunity for targeted therapy.

Project description:BRAF is the most prevalent oncogene and an important therapeutic target in melanoma. In some cancers, BRAF is activated by rearrangements that fuse its kinase domain to 5' partner genes. We examined 848 comparative genomic hybridization profiles of melanocytic tumors and found copy number transitions within BRAF in 10 tumors, of which six could be further characterized by sequencing. In all, the BRAF kinase domain was fused in-frame to six N-terminal partners. No other mutations were identified in melanoma oncogenes. One of the seven melanoma cell lines without known oncogenic mutations harbored a similar BRAF fusion, which constitutively activated the MAP kinase pathway. Sorafenib, but not vemurafenib, could block MAP kinase pathway activation and proliferation of the cell line at clinically relevant concentrations, whereas BRAF(V) (600E) mutant melanoma cell lines were significantly more sensitive to vemurafenib. The patient from whom the cell line was derived showed a durable clinical response to sorafenib.

Genome-wide high-resolution SNP-array analysis of childhood melanocytic tumor with ambiguous histopathological features

Project description:In our clinical practice, we perform genome-wide high-resolution SNP-array analysis as an adjunct to the histopathologic diagnosis for diagnostically challenging melanocytic tumors. The concept of using array-based DNA copy number analysis to screen for gene fusions associated with unbalanced genomic aberrations flanking the fusion points was applied in the diagnostic setting, and intragenic copy number changes involving common receptor kinase genes are typically further analyzed and, if necessary, studied by alternative methods. Here we present the discovery of recurrent NTRK3 gene rearrangements in childhood melanocytic neoplasms based on genome-wide high-resolution SNP-array analysis.
