    Abstract: 7529 Background: Progress in treating NSCLC continues to be limited by high recurrence rates after definitive treatment of localized disease and frequent presentation with metastatic disease. In these pts, diagnostic samples are often limited in size and may be inadequate for genotyping necessary in this disease. In applying genomic profiling to aid treatment planning for patients with metastatic NSCLC, it is critical to determine whether archived primary tumor adequately reflects the genomic spectrum of the patient’s metastatic disease or whether biopsy of a metastatic site is required. We undertook this study using NGS technology to characterize paired primary-metastatic biopsy genomic profiles. Methods: Primary and matched metastatic tumor pairs plus adjacent normal tissue from 15 pts with NSCLC (adenocarcinoma 9/squamous 4/large cell 2) and heavy smoking history were analyzed using a targeted NGS assay in a CLIA laboratory (Foundation Medicine). Genomic libraries were captured for 3230 exons in 182 cancer-related genes plus 37 introns from 14 genes often rearranged in cancer and sequenced to average median depth of 778X with 99% of bases covered 〉 100X. Results: Among the 30 tumors, 373 somatic alterations were identified; 96 were known NSCLC drivers including: TP53 (14 pts), KRAS (4 pts), SOX2 (4 pts), STK11 (2 pts), CDKN2A (2 pts) and SMARCA4 (2 pts) in full agreement with their respective histological type. In all cases (15/15), primary and metastatic tumors from the same patient demonstrated 90% driver mutation concordance (74/82, 95 % CI, 82-95%). For other mutations, the majority of which are likely passengers, the 69% (201/291) concordance rate was significantly lower (p 〈 .001).The total number of alterations between primaries (190) and metastases (183) was remarkably similar. Conclusions: These results suggest that genomic profiles of primary tumor can identify the key somatic alterations present in matched NSCLC metastases and therefore is a suitable specimen for clinical decision making in the majority of cases. Our data does not support the routine need for a new biopsy upon recurrence since variability in mutational status is low.

    Abstract: Characterization of the genomic changes that drive an individual patient's disease is critical in management of many cancers. In patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), obtaining tumor samples of sufficient size for genomic profiling on recurrence is often challenging. We undertook this study to compare genomic alterations identified in archived primary tumors from patients with NSCLC with those identified in metachronous or synchronous metastases. Patients and Methods Primary and matched metastatic tumor pairs from 15 patients were analyzed by using a targeted next-generation sequencing assay in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments laboratory. Genomic libraries were captured for 3,230 exons in 182 cancer-related genes plus 37 introns from 14 genes often rearranged in cancer and sequenced to high coverage. Results Among 30 tumors, 311 genomic alterations were identified of which 63 were known recurrent (32 in primary tumor, 31 in metastasis) and 248 were nonrecurrent (likely passenger). TP53 mutations were the most frequently observed recurrent alterations (12 patients). Tumors harbored two or more (maximum four) recurrent alterations in 10 patients. Comparative analysis of recurrent alterations between primary tumor and matched metastasis revealed a concordance rate of 94% compared with 63% for likely passenger alterations. Conclusion This high concordance suggests that for the purposes of genomic profiling, use of archived primary tumor can identify the key recurrent somatic alterations present in matched NSCLC metastases and may provide much of the relevant genomic information required to guide treatment on recurrence.

    Abstract: Antiangiogenic therapies targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway have yielded more modest clinical benefit to patients with non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) than initially expected. Clinical data suggest a distinct biologic role of the VEGF pathway in the different histologic subtypes of lung cancer. To clarify the influence of histologic differentiation in the prognostic relevance of VEGF-mediated signaling in NSCLC, we performed a concomitant analysis of the expression of three key elements of the VEGF pathway in the earliest stages of the following two principal histologic subtypes: squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and adenocarcinoma (ADC). Patients and Methods We evaluated tumor cell expression of VEGF, VEGF receptor (VEGFR) 1, and VEGFR2 using automatic immunostaining in a series of 298 patients with early-stage NSCLC recruited as part of the multicenter European Early Lung Cancer Detection Group project. A score measuring the VEGF signaling pathway was calculated by adding the tumor cell expression value of VEGF and its two receptors. The results were validated in two additional independent cohorts of patients with NSCLC. Results The combination of high VEGF, VEGFR1, and VEGFR2 protein expression was associated with lower risk of disease progression in early SCC (univariate analysis, P = .008; multivariate analysis, hazard ratio, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.42 to 0.92; P = .02). The results were validated in two independent patient cohorts, confirming the favorable prognostic value of high VEGF signaling score in early lung SCC. Conclusion Our results clearly indicate that the combination of high expression of the three key elements in the VEGF pathway is associated with a good prognosis in patients with early SCC but not in patients with ADC.

    Abstract: 7515 Background: IFCT-0002 trial compared two perioperative CT regimens, CDDP-Gemcitabine vs.CBDCA-Paclitaxel in 528 stage I-II NSCLC patients. Paraffin-embedded post-chemo specimens were collected in the 490 non-complete responder patients for tissue expression studies of DNA-repair proteins. Methods: Surgical specimens were processed for immunohistochemistry as previously published. Variables were studied as continuous variables. Cut-off values were validated by bootstrap. Multivariate backward Cox regressions were used to adjust for patients’ characteristics associated with the corresponding outcome at p 〈 0.20 in univariate analysis. Discrimination of the proposed Cox models was estimated using the c-indexes corrected for over-optimism by a resampling procedure. Median follow-up was 72.0 months, 95%CI [69.7-73.5]. Results: ERCC1, MSH2, XRCC5/Ku80 and BRCA1 immunostainings were available in 413, 356, 396 and 221 specimens. Expressed as a continuous variable, only MSH2 staining score correlated with overall survival. XRCC5 showed no influence on survival. When dichotomised, low BRCA1 (under median value) and ERCC1 (ERCC1=0), while high MSH2 protein expression (over median value), adversely affected overall survival with respective adj. HRs of 1.56, 95%CI [1.05-2.32] , p=0.028 ; 1.37 95%CI [1.01-1.86], p=0.042 and 1.53, 95%CI [1.12-2.09] , p=0.007. No interaction was found between the attributed treatment and any of the 4 markers. High MSH2 and low ERCC1 variables were tested in 200 bootstrap multivariate Cox models and correlated with OS in respectively 87% and 78.5% (c-index=0.570), whereas stage predicted survival in only 49% of those theoretical samples. A prognostic score led to the definition of three groups of high-, intermediate- and low-risk of death with respective HRs of 2.83, 1.60 and 1. Median OS were respectively 28.3 months, 71.5 and not reached, 5-y survival rates were 34.2%, 54.8% and 66.3% (Log-Rank p 〈 0.0001). Conclusions: With a 6-year median follow-up, a prognostic score derived from multivariate Cox regression, validated by bootstraping, accurately discriminates a sub-group with high risk of death according to tumor expression of MSH2 and ERCC1.

    Abstract: The survival benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy for patients with resected stage II-III non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is modest. Efforts to develop prognostic or predictive biomarkers in these patients have not yielded clinically useful tests. We report findings from the Lung Adjuvant Cisplatin Evaluation (LACE)-Bio-II study, in which we analyzed next-generation sequencing and long-term outcomes data from 〉 900 patients with early-stage NSCLC treated prospectively in adjuvant landmark clinical trials. We used a targeted gene panel to assess the prognostic and predictive effect of mutations in individual genes, DNA repair pathways, and tumor mutation burden (TMB). Methods A total of 908 unmatched, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded, resected lung cancer tumor specimens were sequenced using a targeted panel of 1,538 genes. Stringent filtering criteria were applied to exclude germline variants and artifacts related to formalin fixation. Disease-free survival, overall survival, and lung cancer—specific survival (LCSS) were assessed in Cox models stratified by trial and adjusted for treatment, age, sex, performance score, histology, type of surgery, and stage. Results Nonsynonymous mutations were identified in 1,515 genes in 908 tumor samples. High nonsynonymous TMB ( 〉 8 mutations/Mb) was prognostic for favorable outcomes (ie, overall survival, disease-free survival, and LCSS) in patients with resected NSCLC. LCSS benefit with adjuvant chemotherapy was more pronounced in patients with low nonsynonymous TMBs (≤ 4 mutations/Mb). Presence of mutations in DNA repair pathways, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, TP53 alteration subtype, and intratumor heterogeneity was neither prognostic nor predictive. Statistically significant effect of mutations in individual genes was difficult to determine due to high false-discovery rates. Conclusion High nonsynonymous TMB was associated with a better prognosis in patients with resected NSCLC. In addition, the benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy on LCSS was more pronounced in patients with low nonsynonymous TMBs. Studies are warranted to confirm these findings.

    Abstract: e21080 Background: The prognostic and predictive role of KRAS mutations and gene copy number aberrations (CNA) in early stage NSCLC is unclear. In this study, we characterize the prognostic effect of KRAS mutation status and concomitant CN gain in early stage NSCLC, and determine the ability to predict survival benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. We hypothesize that concomitant KRAS mutations and CN gain will be prognostic of worse survival compared to KRAS mutations alone. Methods: Clinical and genomic data from The LACE (Lung Adjuvant Cisplatin Evaluation)-BIO consortium was utilized. CNA were categorized as Gain or Neutral (Neut)/Loss; mutation status was defined as wild type (WT) or mutant (MUT). WT+Neut/Loss (reference), WT+Gain, MUT+Gain and MUT+Neut/Loss groups were compared in all patients and the adenocarcinoma subgroup. Primary endpoint was lung-cancer-specific survival (LCSS); secondary endpoints were DFS and OS. Survival curves were assessed using Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests. Concomitant KRAS CNA and mutation status was correlated to endpoints using a Cox proportional hazards model stratified by trial and adjusted for treatment, age, gender, histology, WHO performance status, surgery type, tumor and nodal stage. A treatment-by-variable interaction was added to evaluate predictive effect. Results: 946 (399 adenocarcinoma) patients had complete KRAS mutation, CNA and clinical data: 41 (30) MUT+Gain, 145 (99) MUT+Neut/Loss, 125 (16) WT+Gain, 635 (254) WT+Neut/Loss. There was a negative prognostic effect of KRAS MUT+Neut/Loss for LCSS (HR = 1.32 [1.01-1.71]) on univariable analysis, and to a lesser extent after adjusting for covariates (HR = 1.28 [0.97-1.68] ). A similar non-significant trend was observed in KRAS MUT+Gain patients for LCSS (HR = 1.34 [0.83-2.17]), DFS (HR = 1.34 [0.86-2.09] ) and OS (HR = 1.59 [0.99-2.54]). There was no significant predictive effect in the overall population; however, a potential predictive effect of KRAS for OS was seen in the adenocarcinoma subgroup (interaction p = 0.046). KRAS MUT+Gain was associated with a beneficial effect of chemotherapy on DFS (HR = 0.33 [0.11-0.99] , p = 0.048), with a non-significant trend also seen for LCSS (HR = 0.41 [0.13-1.33]) and OS (HR = 0.40 [0.13-1.26] ). Conclusions: A small prognostic effect of KRAS mutation was identified for LCSS. A potential predictive effect of concomitant KRAS mutation status and CNA was observed for DFS in adenocarcinoma patients. These results could be driven by the small number of patients and require further validation.

    Abstract: Non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a tumor in which only small improvements in clinical outcome have been achieved. The issue is critical for stage I patients for whom there are no available biomarkers that indicate which high-risk patients should receive adjuvant chemotherapy. We aimed to find DNA methylation markers that could be helpful in this regard. Patients and Methods A DNA methylation microarray that analyzes 450,000 CpG sites was used to study tumoral DNA obtained from 444 patients with NSCLC that included 237 stage I tumors. The prognostic DNA methylation markers were validated by a single-methylation pyrosequencing assay in an independent cohort of 143 patients with stage I NSCLC. Results Unsupervised clustering of the 10,000 most variable DNA methylation sites in the discovery cohort identified patients with high-risk stage I NSCLC who had shorter relapse-free survival (RFS; hazard ratio [HR], 2.35; 95% CI, 1.29 to 4.28; P = .004). The study in the validation cohort of the significant methylated sites from the discovery cohort found that hypermethylation of five genes was significantly associated with shorter RFS in stage I NSCLC: HIST1H4F, PCDHGB6, NPBWR1, ALX1, and HOXA9. A signature based on the number of hypermethylated events distinguished patients with high- and low-risk stage I NSCLC (HR, 3.24; 95% CI, 1.61 to 6.54; P = .001). Conclusion The DNA methylation signature of NSCLC affects the outcome of stage I patients, and it can be practically determined by user-friendly polymerase chain reaction assays. The analysis of the best DNA methylation biomarkers improved prognostic accuracy beyond standard staging.

    Abstract: We summarize significant changes in pathologic classification of lung cancer resulting from the 2011 International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer/American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society (IASLC/ATS/ERS) lung adenocarcinoma classification. The classification was developed by an international core panel of experts representing IASLC, ATS, and ERS with oncologists/pulmonologists, pathologists, radiologists, molecular biologists, and thoracic surgeons. Because 70% of patients with lung cancer present with advanced stages, a new approach to small biopsies and cytology with specific terminology and criteria focused on the need for distinguishing squamous cell carcinoma from adenocarcinoma and on molecular testing for EGFR mutations and ALK rearrangement. Tumors previously classified as non–small-cell carcinoma, not otherwise specified, because of the lack of clear squamous or adenocarcinoma morphology should be classified further by using a limited immunohistochemical workup to preserve tissue for molecular testing. The terms “bronchioloalveolar carcinoma” and “mixed subtype adenocarcinoma” have been discontinued. For resected adenocarcinomas, new concepts of adenocarcinoma in situ and minimally invasive adenocarcinoma define patients who, if they undergo complete resection, will have 100% disease-free survival. Invasive adenocarcinomas are now classified by predominant pattern after using comprehensive histologic subtyping with lepidic, acinar, papillary, and solid patterns; micropapillary is added as a new histologic subtype with poor prognosis. Former mucinous bronchioloalveolar carcinomas are now called “invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma.” Because the lung cancer field is now rapidly evolving with new advances occurring on a frequent basis, particularly in the molecular arena, this classification provides a much needed standard for pathologic diagnosis not only for patient care but also for clinical trials and TNM classification.

    Abstract: The classification for invasive lung adenocarcinoma by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer, American Thoracic Society, European Respiratory Society, and WHO is based on the predominant histologic pattern—lepidic (LEP), papillary (PAP), acinar (ACN), micropapillary (MIP), or solid (SOL)—present in the tumor. This classification has not been tested in multi-institutional cohorts or clinical trials or tested for its predictive value regarding survival from adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT). Patients and Methods Of 1,766 patients in the IALT, JBR.10, CALGB 9633 (Alliance), and ANITA ACT trials included in the LACE-Bio study, 725 had adenocarcinoma. Histologies were reclassified according to the new classification and then collapsed into three groups (LEP, ACN/PAP, and MIP/SOL). Primary end point was overall survival (OS); secondary end points were disease-free survival (DFS) and specific DFS (SDFS). Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were estimated through multivariable Cox models stratified by trial. Prognostic value was estimated in the observation arm and predictive value by a treatment effect interaction with histologic subgroups. Significance level was set at .01 for pooled analysis. Results A total of 575 patients were included in this analysis. OS was not prognostically different between histologic subgroups, but univariable DFS and SDFS were worse for MIP/SOL compared with LEP or ACN/PAP subgroup (P 〈 .01); this remained marginally significant after adjustment. MIP/SOL patients (but not ACN/PAP) derived DFS and SDFS but not OS benefit from ACT (OS: HR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.51 to 0.99; interaction P = .18; DFS: HR, 0.60; 95% CI, 0.44 to 0.82; interaction P = 〈 .01; and SDFS: HR, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.42 to 0.81; interaction P = .01). Conclusion The new lung adenocarcinoma classification based on predominant histologic pattern was not predictive for ACT benefit for OS, but it seems predictive for disease-specific outcomes.

    Abstract: The International Adjuvant Lung Cancer Trial (IALT) demonstrated that adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy improves the survival of patients with completely resected non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The purpose of our study was to determine whether cell cycle regulators are of prognostic and/or predictive value in patients who were enrolled onto the IALT. Patients and Methods Expression of p27 Kip1 , p16 INK4A , cyclin D1, cyclin D3, cyclin E, and Ki-67 was immunohistochemically assessed in tumor specimens obtained from 778 IALT patients. Prognostic and predictive analyses were based on Cox models adjusted for clinical and pathologic parameters. Results There was a relationship between p27 Kip1 status and benefit of cisplatin-based chemotherapy (test for interaction, P = .02). Among patients with p27 Kip1 -negative tumors, cisplatin-based chemotherapy resulted in longer overall survival compared with controls (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] for death = 0.66; 95% CI, 0.50 to 0.88; P = .006). In patients with p27 Kip1 -positive tumors, overall survival was not different between patients treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy and controls (adjusted HR for death = 1.09; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.45; P = .54). The other cell cycle regulators and Ki-67 did not predict benefit of adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy. None of these biomarkers was significantly associated with overall survival of the patients in the total study population. Conclusion NSCLC patients with p27 Kip1 -negative tumors benefit from adjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy after complete tumor resection. Before establishing p27 Kip1 as a routine marker for selection of patients for adjuvant chemotherapy, the predictive value of p27 Kip1 has to be confirmed in patients from other trials.
