    Abstract: Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is an aggressive tumor that affects children and young adults. Patients with relapsed/refractory diseases have limited treatment options. Targeting the driver fusion oncoproteins of EwS remains a technical problem. Epigenetic mechanisms have been pointed out as key players and alternative therapeutic targets in EwS. Here, we reported that lysine demethylase 5B (KDM5B), a histone demethylase that specifically demethylates tri- and di-methylated H3 Lys-4 (H3K4), was upregulated in EwS and overexpressed KDM5B was correlated with poor outcomes of patients. KDM5B knockdown and KDM5B inhibitor AS-8351 suppressed EwS cell proliferation and induced cell cycle arrest. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that KDM5B mainly influenced the cell cycle pathways in EwS. In mechanistic studies, we found that overexpression of KDM5B resulted in increased CCNE1 protein level, but did not affect the mRNA level of CCNE1 . KDM5B upregulation blocked the degradation pathway of CCNE1 by reducing the expression of FBXW7. KDM5B downregulated FBXW7 gene by demethylation of H3K4me3 at promoter region. Moreover, AS-8351 could inhibit tumor growth in nude mice models, indicating the antitumor effect of targeting KDM5B in EwS. Our study uncovered that KDM5B in EwS attenuated FBXW7 transcription and accumulated CCNE1 protein, leading to malignant proliferation of EwS. Epigenetic drug targeting KDM5B could be a potential treatment for EwS.

    Abstract: e22004 Background: There is limited experience of PD-1 combined with other therapies in children. We aimed to explore the antitumor activity and safety of PD-1 antibody monotherapy or combination with other regimens in relapsed or refractory pediatric cancer. Methods: This was an observational retrospective study performed at two academic medical centers (Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center and Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University) The primary objective of this study was to describe the overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). Secondary objectives included characterizing toxicities according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.03 as well as describing progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Of the 22 pediatric cancer patients who received PD-1 inhibitors, the median follow-up for all patients after the commencement of PD-1 therapy with or without other regimens was 12.3 months (0-43 months). The objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) of the 6 patients with HL were 83.3% (3CR and 2PR) and 100%, respectively. No objective response was observed in patients with melanoma or Burkitt lymphoma evaluated in this study. For patients treated with PD-1 inhibitor combination therapy, PD-1 antibody combined with decitabine showed potential efficacy in advanced pediatric cancer patients. One of the Three of patients who received PD-1 combined with decitabine achieved CR and another two other patients achieved PR. At the data cutoff, 10 of the 13 (76.9%) patients achieved disease control as the best objective response. The median PFS and OS were 90 days (95%CI: 10.733-169.267) and 158 days (95%CI: 131.514-184.486) respectively. There were no severe treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) directly attributed to PD-1 monotherapy. The severe TRAEs are due to chemotherapy in the combination regimen. Conclusions: PD-1 monotherapy demonstrated antitumor activity in a population of pediatric patients with HL. The regimen of PD-1 inhibitor combined with decitabine showed potential in treating with pediatric cancer patients.

    Abstract: Despite aggressive treatment, the prognosis of high-risk NB patients is still poor. This retrospective study investigated the benefits of metronomic maintenance treatment (MT) in high-risk NB patients without ASCT or GD2 antibody therapy. Patients aged ≤ 21 years with newly diagnosed high-risk NB were included. Patients with complete/very good partial remission (CR/VGPR/PR) to conventional treatment received, or not, oral metronomic MT for 1 year. Two hundred and seventeen high-risk NB patients were enrolled. One hundred and eighty-five (85%) had a CR/VGPR/PR to conventional treatment, of the patients with stage 4, 106 receiving and 61 not receiving oral metronomic MT, and the 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was 42.5 ± 5.1% and 29.6 ± 6%, respectively (p = 0.017), and overall survival (OS) rate was 71.1 ± 4.7% and 59.4 ± 6.4%, respectively (p = 0.022). A total of 117 high-risk patients with oral metronomic MT had EFS rate of 42.7 ± 4.8%. The toxicity of MT was mild. For high-risk NB patients without ASCT or anti-GD2 antibody therapy, stage 4, MYCN amplication and patients with stage 4 not receiving oral metronomic MT after CR/VGPR/PR were independent adverse prognostic factors. Oral metronomic MT can improve survival in high-risk NB patients in CR/VGPR/PR without ASCT or anti-GD2 antibodies therapy.

    Abstract: e22005 Background: To uncover the genomic characteristics as well as to, within the scope of pediatric soft tissue sarcoma (psts), assess the clinical value of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), we present the first report of genomic profiles in Chinese psts. Methods: Tumor tissue, as well as peripheral blood from 41 psts patients, were collected in Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center, Shenzhen Children's Hospital and Nanfang Hospital. Samples were sequenced in a CLIA/CAP-accredited laboratory with a targeted NGS panel (Onco PanScan plus; GenetronHealth.inc) consisted of all exons of 831 cancer-related genes and mRNA of 395 genes. Bioinformatics analysis was conducted using a build-in computational pipeline. Results: A total of 41 samples consisted of five major histology types including rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) (n = 11), fibrosarcoma (n = 4), Ewing's sarcoma (n = 4), INI1-deficient mesenchymal tumor (n = 4), and other mesenchymal tumors (n = 18). All patients were with doubtful diagnosis,advanced, relapsed, or refractory sarcoma, of which 85% samples were from initial diagnoses. In totally, we identified 116 somatic aberrations and 4 pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline mutations, with a median tumor mutational burden of 0.47/Mb (0–6.57). Genomic analysis revealed frequent alterations in TP53 (10%), NTRK fusion (10%), PAX3/7 fusion (8%), and ARID1A (7%). ARID1A (18% vs. 0%) and TP53 (18% vs. 3%) mutations were found with higher frequency compared with pediatric RMS data in a previous study (Jack et al 2014). ARID1A mutation was only reported in a RMS case report (Cramer et al 2017). Furthermore, the mutation of ARID1A potentially match PARP inhibitors, which may provide more therapeutic options. In addition, NGS aided pathologic diagnosis in 63% (26/41) patients. The proportion of confirmed diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and the excluded diagnosis was 41.5%, 12.2%, and 9.7%, respectively. Druggable alterations were detected in 39% patients (Table). Four patients received the treatment recommended by genetic testing, three of them with NTRK fusion were recruited in a matched clinical trial could be evaluated and showed partial remission upon Larotrectinib. Conclusions: We discovered ARID1A mutations, which potentially sensitive to PARP-inhibition, were at a higher incidence in Chinese RMS. This study demonstrated the value of NGS test in guiding the clinical practice of psts in Chinese population. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: Purpose : This study aimed to retrospectively analyze survival outcomes for Chinese patients with prechemotherapy blastemal predominant histology type Wilms tumors (WTs). Methods : We collected and analyzed clinical data concerning patients aged  〈 15 years with favorable histology (FH) WTs treated at the Sun Yat‐Sen University Cancer Center from December 2005 to May 2016, based on the Children's Oncology Group protocol. Pathological specimens were collected through biopsy or surgical resection before initiation of chemotherapy. We analyzed survival outcomes involving different prechemotherapy histology subtypes. Results : We enrolled 97 patients with FH WTs (median follow‐up, 71.5 months; range, 22.2‐170.7). The total recurrence rate was 17.5%, and the subtype recurrence rates were as follows: blastemal predominant (45.5%), mixed (7.5%), epithelial (14.3%), and mesenchymal (9.5%) ( P  = .010). Five‐year event‐free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 84.9% and 81.4%, respectively. Respective 5‐year EFS and OS rates for subtypes were as follows: blastemal predominant (54.5% and 68.2%), mixed (90.0% and 88.9%), epithelial (85.7% and 85.1%), and mesenchymal (90.5% and 94.7%). Multivariate survival analyses showed that the blastemal predominant subtype was an independent prognostic factor of EFS ( P  = .001) and OS ( P  = .017). Conclusions : Our findings showed that prechemotherapy blastemal predominant WTs had higher recurrence and lower EFS and OS rates. Our findings suggested that, albeit with some deficiencies, blastemal predominant histology WT–diagnosed prechemotherapy may have prognostic relevance. Further research into other potential confounding variables are required to determine whether such patients warrant altered risk‐stratified therapy.

    Abstract: e22009 Background: The combination of irinotecan, temozolomide and vincristine has been proposed as an effective salvage regimen for some pediatric malignancies. Thus, we sought to evaluate this combination for patients with relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma (NB). Methods: Forty-six patients with relapsed or refractory NB were treated with the combination of vincristine (1.5 mg/m 2 i.v. day 1), irinotecan (50 mg/m 2 /day i.v. days 1–5) and temozolomide (100 mg/m 2 /day p.o. days 1–5) (VIT) during the period 2011–2019. All toxicities were documented. Results: A total of 251 cycles (median 6 cycles/patient) were administered. A complete response (CR) was achieved in 5 patients, partial response (PR) in 27 patients, stable disease (SD) in 8 patients, and progression disease (PD) in 6 patients, with an overall objective response rate (CR+PR) of 69.6%. Eighteen patients developed diarrhea with Grade III or less. Grade 1-2 hematologic toxicity occurred in 10 patients. Grade 3-4 hematologic toxicity developed in 32 patients. VIT was an effective regimen for different metastatic sites. Overall objective response rates to VIT combination for patients with mediastinum, bone marrow/bone, lymph node, abdomen and brain involvement were 100.0%, 80.0%, 77.8%, 50.0%, 42.9%, respectively. UGT1A*28 genotyping performed in 7 patients revealed wild type. Diarrhea occurred in 4 of them. Conclusions: The shorter, 5-day VIT regimen is an active and well-tolerated salvage regimen in relapse/refractory NB.[Table: see text]

    Abstract: Introduction B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is the most common cancer of childhood. Early response to induction chemotherapy is one of the important prognostic factors in B-ALL. However, the analytic sensitivity for flow cytometry (FC) is only 10 -4. The feasibility of using next-generation sequencing (NGS) of immunoglobulin for the determination of minimal residual disease (MRD) in B-ALL has been demonstrated. This study aimed to investigate the performance of NGS techniques measuring immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH)-variable, diversity, and joining (V[D]J) clonal rearrangements compared with FC in detecting MRD for children with B-ALL and to predict the clinical outcome of B-ALL patients. Methods Newly diagnosed younger than 18 years old B-ALL patients who received the treatment strategy of South China children's leukemia Group (SCCLG)-ALL 2016 were recruited. DNA extracted from bone marrow cells at all available time points for each patient was submitted to Simcere diagnostics for sequencing using Illumina NovaSeq platform. We performed IgH V(D)J NGS and FCM on the bone marrow serially obtained at diagnosis (D0), 15 days at induction therapy (D15), 33 days at induction therapy (D33) and then at the end of induction therapy (EOI). We defined MRD positive (MRD +) by IgH V(D)J NGS and FCM as more than 1 blast cell among 10 4 and 10 6 bone marrow cells, respectively. The sensitivity of MRD detection by IgH V(D)J NGS and FCM, and the association of MRD status with clinicopathological characteristics were investigated. Statistical analysis was performed through SPSS Statistics 22. Enumeration data and correlation between MRD data and clinicopathological characteristics were compared by Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as # NCT04977895. Results As of July 27, 2021, 22 patients (median age, 4.5 years; range, 3.0-7.3) were enrolled in the study. Three patients (13.6%) had a t (9;22) translocation consistent with Philadelphia chromosome positive disease. According to risk stratifications, 8 (36.4%), 8 (36.4%), and 2 (9.1%) patients were classified as low risk (LR), intermediate risk (IR), and high risk (HR) groups, respectively. The remaining 4 patients are still under treatment and have not been classified. We identified leukemic IgH clones in 100% of the diagnostic samples and 68.2% (15/22) of the patients were polyclonal. In 11 patients whose samples of all the four timepoints (D0, D15, D33, EOI) have been tested in parallel by FCM and IgH V(D)J NGS, the frequencies of patients with MRD + were 30.4% vs. 90.9% at D15 (P<0.05) by FCM and IgH V(D)J NGS. IgH V(D)J NGS MRD monitoring could identify MRD + patients with frequency of 45.5% and 18.2% among patients achieved MRD negativity by FCM at D33 (P<0.05) and EOI (P = 0.46). With an MRD detection limit of 10 -6, 90.9% (10/11), 36.4% (4/11) and 18.2% (2/11) patients were MRD negative by FCM but positive by the NGS test at D15, D33 and EOI, respectively. This suggested that the sensitivity of IgH V(D)J NGS was significantly higher than that of FCM. Correlation of the measured MRD between the two methods in the entire cohort (r = 0.7934, P & lt; 0.0001) as well as in the concordant cases (r = 0.5558, P = 0.0032) was very high. There was a high discordant rate with NGS identifying more patients MRD + at this threshold. Furthermore, NGS MRD was positive but the FCM MRD was negative in 13 samples (P & lt; 0.0001). In addition, positive MRD status of D33 by NGS was significantly associated with the age of B-ALL patients, patients under 6 years more frequently harbored detectable MRD compared with those ≥ 6 years old (87.5% vs. 11.1%, P & lt; 0.01). There was no patient relapsed after a medium follow-up of 10.5 months. Conclusions We demonstrated the higher sensitivity of IgH-V(D)J NGS in MRD detection of B-ALL, which implies that NGS MRD monitoring could be helpful for more accurate risk stratifications and more precise treatment according to risk stratifications. Further study with a larger sample size and a longer follow-up period is need. Figure 1 Figure 1. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
