Project description:We performed a mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis of normal and malignant prostate tissues from 22 men who underwent surgery for prostate cancer. Prostate cancer samples included Grade Groups (3 to 5), with 8 patients experiencing recurrence and 14 without evidence of recurrence with a mean of 6.8 years of follow-up.

Project description:Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy in men. Yet, the modest benefit of treatment highlights the unmet need for prognostic biomarkers in prostate cancer (1). Few large prostate oncogenome resources currently exist that combine the molecular and clinical outcome data necessary for prognostic discovery. To determine the extent to which genomic aberrations reflect the risk of prostate cancer-specific outcomes, we profiled more than 100 primary prostate cancers with long-term follow-up for genome-wide copy number alterations (CNA). We also updated the long-term clinical outcome (median 8 years) of an additional independent cohort of 181 primary prostate cancers that we previously profiled for CNA and expression changes (2). Together, we found that CNA burden across the genome, defined as the percent of the tumor genome affected by CNA, is prognostic for recurrence and metastasis in these two cohorts. This prognostic significance of CNA is independent of Gleason grade, a major existing histopathological prognostic variable in prostate cancer. Moreover, in intermediate-risk Gleason 7 prostate cancers that show a wide range of outcomes, CNA burden is also prognostic for biochemical recurrence, independent of prostate-specific antigen or nomogram score. CNA burden therefore has the potential to stratify patients by their risk of recurrence in an otherwise intermediate risk subpopulation. We further demonstrate that CNA burden can be established in diagnostic FFPE needle biopsies using low-input whole genome sequencing. Together, this work highlights the potential of oncogenomics to identify useful and clinically amenable prognostic factors that may inform prostate cancer outcome and treatment.
Project description:The level of copy number alteration (CNA), or CNA burden, in cancer genomes is associated with recurrence and metastasis in prostate cancer. As clinical genomic analysis of tumors and tumor biopsies becomes widespread, there is a growing need to understand the prognostic factors captured by genomic features, especially in prostate cancer where conservative treatment approaches are increasingly common. Here we analyze the CNA landscape of conservatively treated prostate cancer in a prostate cancer biopsy and transurethral resection cohort. We find that CNA burden is prognostic for metastasis and cancer-specific survival, independent of clinical prognostic factors such as Gleason and CAPRA score, in conservatively treated prostate cancer.
