    Abstract: 2002 Background: This study sought to update the predictive significance of the three WHO-defined molecular glioma subgroups ( IDHwt, IDHmt/noncodel, and IDHmt/codel) in the subset of specimens available for analysis in NRG Oncology/RTOG 9802, a phase III trial of high-risk low-grade gliomas (LGGs) treated with radiation (RT) with and without PCV after biopsy/surgical resection. Notably, this is the first phase III study to evaluate the predictive value of the WHO subgroups in LGGs using prospectively-collected, well-annotated long-term overall survival data, in a post-hoc analysis. Methods: IDH1/2 mutation status was determined by immunohistochemistry and/or next-generation sequencing. 1p/19q status was determined by Oncoscan and/or 450K methylation data. Treatment effects on overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) by marker status were determined by the Cox proportional hazard model and tested using the log-rank test in a secondary and exploratory analysis. Results: Of all the randomized eligible high-risk G2 patients (N = 251) in NRG Oncology/RTOG 9802, 106(42%) patients had tissue available with sufficient quality DNA for profiling. Of these, 80(75%) were IDHmut; 43(41%) were IDHmut/non-co-deleted, 37(35%) were IDHmut/co-deleted, and 26(24%) were IDHwt. Upon univariate analyses, no significant difference in either PFS or OS was observed with the addition of PCV in the IDHwt subgroup. Both the IDHmut/non-co-deleted and IDHmut/co-deleted subgroups were significantly correlated with longer PFS (HR = 0.32; p = 0.003; HR = 0.13; p 〈 0.001) and OS (HR = 0.38; p = 0.013; HR = 0.21; p = 0.029) in the RT plus PCV arm, respectively. Conclusions: Our analyses suggest that both IDHmut/non-co-deleted and IDHmut/co-deleted subgroups received benefit from treatment with PCV although sample size is limited and analyses are post-hoc. Our results also support the notion that IDHwt high-risk LGG patients do not benefit from the addition of PCV to RT. Funding: U10CA180868, U10CA180822, and U24CA196067.

    Abstract: Purpose: Identification of predictive biomarkers is critically needed to improve selection of patients who derive the most benefit from platinum-based chemotherapy. We hypothesized that decreased expression of SMARCA4/BRG1, a known regulator of transcription and DNA repair, is a novel predictive biomarker of increased sensitivity to adjuvant platinum-based therapies in non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Experimental Design: The prognostic value was tested using a gene-expression microarray from the Director's Challenge Lung Study (n = 440). The predictive significance of SMARCA4 was determined using a gene-expression microarray (n = 133) from control and treatment arms of the JBR.10 trial of adjuvant cisplatin/vinorelbine. Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank tests were used to estimate and test the differences of probabilities in overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) between expression groups and treatment arms. Multivariate Cox regression models were used while adjusting for other clinical covariates. Results: In the Director's Challenge Study, reduced expression of SMARCA4 was associated with poor OS compared with high and intermediate expression (P & lt; 0.001 and P = 0.009, respectively). In multivariate analysis, compared with low, high SMARCA4 expression predicted a decrease in risk of death [HR, 0.6; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.4–0.8; P = 0.002]. In the JBR.10 trial, improved 5-year DSS was noted only in patients with low SMARCA4 expression when treated with adjuvant cisplatin/vinorelbine [HR, 0.1; 95% CI, 0.0–0.5, P = 0.002 (low); HR, 1.0; 95% CI, 0.5–2.3, P = 0.92 (high)] . An interaction test was highly significant (P = 0.01). Conclusions: Low expression of SMARCA4/BRG1 is significantly associated with worse prognosis; however, it is a novel significant predictive biomarker for increased sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy in NSCLC.

    Abstract: Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive histologic subtype of brain cancer with poor outcomes and limited treatment options. Here, we report the selective overexpression of the protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT5 as a novel candidate theranostic target in this disease. PRMT5 silences the transcription of regulatory genes by catalyzing symmetric dimethylation of arginine residues on histone tails. PRMT5 overexpression in patient-derived primary tumors and cell lines correlated with cell line growth rate and inversely with overall patient survival. Genetic attenuation of PRMT5 led to cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis, and loss of cell migratory activity. Cell death was p53-independent but caspase-dependent and enhanced with temozolomide, a chemotherapeutic agent used as a present standard of care. Global gene profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation identified the tumor suppressor ST7 as a key gene silenced by PRMT5. Diminished ST7 expression was associated with reduced patient survival. PRMT5 attenuation limited PRMT5 recruitment to the ST7 promoter, led to restored expression of ST7 and cell growth inhibition. Finally, PRMT5 attenuation enhanced glioblastoma cell survival in a mouse xenograft model of aggressive glioblastoma. Together, our findings defined PRMT5 as a candidate prognostic factor and therapeutic target in glioblastoma, offering a preclinical justification for targeting PRMT5-driven oncogenic pathways in this deadly disease.

    Genomic Characterization of Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer in African Americans by Targeted Massively Parallel Sequencing
    American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) ; 2015

    Abstract: Technologic advances have enabled the comprehensive analysis of genetic perturbations in non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, African Americans have often been underrepresented in these studies. This ethnic group has higher lung cancer incidence and mortality rates, and some studies have suggested a lower incidence of epidermal growth factor receptor mutations. Herein, we report the most in-depth molecular profile of NSCLC in African Americans to date. Methods A custom panel was designed to cover the coding regions of 81 NSCLC-related genes and 40 ancestry-informative markers. Clinical samples were sequenced on a massively parallel sequencing instrument, and anaplastic lymphoma kinase translocation was evaluated by fluorescent in situ hybridization. Results The study cohort included 99 patients (61% males, 94% smokers) comprising 31 squamous and 68 nonsquamous cell carcinomas. We detected 227 nonsilent variants in the coding sequence, including 24 samples with nonoverlapping, classic driver alterations. The frequency of driver mutations was not significantly different from that of whites, and no association was found between genetic ancestry and the presence of somatic mutations. Copy number alteration analysis disclosed distinguishable amplifications in the 3q chromosome arm in squamous cell carcinomas and pointed toward a handful of targetable alterations. We also found frequent SMARCA4 mutations and protein loss, mostly in driver-negative tumors. Conclusion Our data suggest that African American ancestry may not be significantly different from European/white background for the presence of somatic driver mutations in NSCLC. Furthermore, we demonstrated that using a comprehensive genotyping approach could identify numerous targetable alterations, with potential impact on therapeutic decisions.

    Abstract: 2044 Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive and common primary brain tumor. Nomograms are prediction models that help form individualized risk scores for cancer patients, which are valuable for treatment decision-making. The aim of this study is to create a refined nomogram by including novel molecular variables beyond MGMT promoter methylation. Methods: Clinical data and miRNA expression data were obtained from 226 newly diagnosed GBM patients. Clinical data included age at diagnosis, sex, Karnofsky performance status (KPS), extent of resection, O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase ( MGMT) promoter methylation status, IDH mutation status and overall survival. Due to low representation of less than 13 cases each, IDH mutant glioblastomas and patients submitted to biopsy-only were excluded. Total RNA was isolated from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues; miRNA expression was subsequently measured using the NanoString human miRNA v3a assay. A Cox regression model was developed using glmnet R package with the elastic net penalty while adjusting for known prognostic factors. A dichotomized genomic score was created by finding the optimal cutpoint (maximum association with survival) of the linear combination of the selected. A nomogram was generated using known clinical prognostic factors, specifically age, sex, KPS, and MGMT status along with the dichotomized genomic score. Results: Four novel miRNAs were found to significantly correlate with overall survival and were used to create the dichotomized miRNA genomic score (GS). This score split the cohort into a poor performing group (GS_high) and a better performing group (GS_low) (p = 0.0031). A final nomogram was created using the Cox proportional hazards model (Figure 1). Factors that correlated with improved survival included younger age, KPS 〉 70, MGMT methylation and a low genomic score. Conclusions: This study is a proof of concept demonstrating that integration of molecular variables beyond MGMT methylation improve existing nomograms to provide individualized information about patient prognosis. Future directions include a more comprehensive analysis, including proteomic and methylation data, and subsequent validation in an external cohort. Finally, network analysis integrating molecular signatures of poor performers will help identify therapeutic targets.

    Abstract: 2518 Background: This study sought to evaluate the prognostic significance of the three WHO-defined molecular glioma subgroups ( IDHwt, IDHmt/non-codel, and IDHmt/codel) in NRG Oncology/RTOG 0424, a phase II trial of high-risk low-grade gliomas treated with radiation (RT) and concurrent and adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) after biopsy/surgical resection. Notably, this is the first clinical study to evaluate the prognostic value of the WHO subgroups in RT + TMZ-treated high-risk grade II (G2) gliomas using prospectively-collected long-term survival data. Methods: IDH1/2 mutation status was determined by next-generation sequencing. 1p/19q co-deletion status was determined by Oncoscan and/or 450K methylation data. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) by marker status were determined by the Cox proportional hazard model and tested using the log-rank test in a post-hoc analysis. Patient pre-treatment characteristics were included as covariates in multivariate analyses. Results: Of all the eligible patients (N=129), 80 (62%) had sufficient quality DNA for both IDH and 1p/19q analyses. Of these 80, 54 (67.5%) were IDHmt, and 26 (32.5%) were IDHwt. Of the 54 IDHmt patients, 26 (32.5% of total, 48% of IDHmt) were IDHmt/codel, and 28 (35% of total, 52% of IDHmt) were IDHmt/non-codel. Both IDHmt subgroups were significantly correlated with longer PFS ( IDHmt/co-del = 8.1yrs (5.2-not reached (NR)); IDHmt/non-codel = 7.5yrs (3.9-11.8); IDHwt = 1.0yr (0.6-1.7), p 〈 0.001) and OS ( IDHmt/co-del = 9.4yrs (8.2-NR); IDHmt/non-codel = 8.8yrs (5.9-NR); IDHwt = 2.3yrs (1.4-3.4), p 〈 0.001) relative to the IDHwt subgroup. Upon univariate and multivariate analyses, both molecular IDHmt subgroup comparisons relative to IDHwt remained significant (p 〈 0.001) even after incorporation of known clinical variables. Conclusions: These analyses suggest that G2 glioma patients harboring IDH1/2 mutations, regardless of co-deletion status, demonstrated longer survival with RT + TMZ relative to IDHwt tumors, although sample size is limited and analyses were post-hoc. These results also support the notion that outcomes for IDHwt high-risk G2 gliomas remain dismal (median = 2.3yrs, similar to G3 anaplastic astrocytoma); these patients should be separated from IDHmt patients in future G2 glioma trials, and warrant novel treatment strategies.

    Abstract: Background: Glioblastomas are the most aggressive high-grade brain tumors, which are often life-threatening due to their location and rapid growth. Although survival rates differ depending on a variety of genetic and environmental factors, the average survival rate for a glioblastoma (GBM) patient is less than 15 months. Although the mechanisms of tumorigenesis are still being elucidated, miRNAs are promising candidates to explore as novel and prognostic biomarkers in GBM. Here we demonstrate a novel role for miR-4516 in promoting growth and migration of GBM and establish the molecular mechanisms mediating these functions. Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks (n=268) were collected for all patients and total RNA was isolated. miRNAs were analyzed simultaneously using the nCounter human miRNA v2 assay (NanoString Technologies; Seattle,WA). Functional characterization studies were conducted in vitro and in vivo. The effect of miR-4516 on GBM cell growth and motility were evaluated by cell proliferation assay, migration and invasion assay, and Annexin-V assay. Realtime PCR, immunoblotting, and 3’ untranslated region luciferase assays were used to analyze miR-4516 targets and signaling pathways. Intracranial injection will be performed to investigate the role of miR-4516 in tumor growth in vivo. Results: Univariate analysis showed that miR-4516 expression in GBM patients was inversely correlated with overall survival (FDR=0.002, p=1.02E-05). Knockdown of miR-4516 blocked tumor growth and induced cell apoptosis. Tumor cell growth, migration and invasion were induced in both transient miR-4516 overexpressed GBM cells (LN229, LN18, and U87) and stable miR-4516 overexpressed GBM cells (U87-EGFRvIII). These miR-4516 tumor-promoting effects were mediated in part via direct targeting PTPN14 and CDKN1A. Investigation of the other miR-4516 targets and in vivo functional study are in process. Conclusion: Taken together, these results suggest that miR-4516 acts as a prognostic biomarker for GBM patients.

    Abstract: Glioblastoma (GBM) patients currently face poor survival outcomes with an average survival rate less than 15 months, with only 3-5% of patients survive more than 36 months. Although the mechanisms of tumorigenesis are still being elucidated, miRNAs are promising candidates to explore as novel and prognostic biomarkers in GBM. MiRNAs are small regulatory molecules that play a crucial role in carcinogenesis via repression of oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes either transcriptionally or post-transcriptionally. Our clinical data (n=268) shows that miR-575 is one of the top miRNAs associated with GBM overall survival (FDR: 0.0036, p-value: 5.77E-05) by univariate analysis (NanoString Technologies; Seattle, WA). This study was designed to investigate the expression and function of miR-575 in GBM. Basal expression of miR-575 was first detected in GBM cell lines prior to functional experimentation. Cell proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion assays were performed to understand the role of miR-575 in GBM. We found that overexpression of miR-575 significantly increased cell proliferation and cell motility in LN229 and U251 cell lines. Additionally, BLID, a tumor-suppressor gene, was negatively regulated by miR-575 at the transcriptional level by qRT-PCR, which will be further investigated at the post-transcriptional level by western blot. Up-regulation of miR-575 in GBM cell lines suggests that it could be acting as an oncogene by degrading the mRNA of BLID. Luciferase assays also showed negative regulation of BLID expression by miR-575, supporting our hypothesis and findings in other cancers. In conclusion, miR-575 might act as an oncogene in GBM, and BLID may be a putative target gene of miR-575. This mechanism could potentially be useful as a novel prognostic biomarker for GBM patients after further in vitro and in vivo validation.
