    Abstract: Two Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)–based testing approaches have shown promise for early detection of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Neither has been independently validated nor their performance compared. We compared their diagnostic performance in an independent population. METHODS We tested blood samples from 819 incident Taiwanese NPC cases (213 early-stage, American Joint Committee on Cancer version 7 stages I and II) diagnosed from 2010 to 2014 and from 1,768 controls from the same region, frequency matched to cases on age and sex. We compared an EBV antibody score using immunoglobulin A antibodies measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EBV antibody score) and plasma EBV DNA load measured by real-time PCR followed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) among EBV DNA–positive individuals (EBV DNA algorithm). RESULTS EBV antibodies and DNA load were measured for 2,522 (802 cases; 1,720 controls) and 2,542 (797 cases; 1,745 controls) individuals, respectively. Of the 898 individuals positive for plasma EBV DNA and therefore eligible for NGS, we selected 442 (49%) for NGS testing. The EBV antibody score had a sensitivity of 88.4% (95% CI, 86.1 to 90.6) and a specificity of 94.9% (95% CI, 93.8 to 96.0) for NPC. The EBV DNA algorithm yielded significantly higher sensitivity (93.2%; 95% CI, 91.3 to 94.9; P = 1.33 × 10 −4 ) and specificity (98.1%; 95% CI, 97.3 to 98.8; P = 3.53 × 10 −7 ). For early-stage NPC, the sensitivities were 87.1% (95% CI, 82.7 to 92.4) for the EBV antibody score and 87.0% (95% CI, 81.9 to 91.5) for the EBV DNA algorithm ( P = .514). For regions with a NPC incidence of 20-100/100,000 person-years (eg, residents in southern China and Hong Kong), these two approaches yielded similar numbers needed to screen (EBV antibody score: 5,656-1,131; EBV DNA algorithm: 5,365-1,073); positive predictive values ranged from 0.4% to 1.7% and 1.0% to 4.7%, respectively. CONCLUSION We demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity of EBV antibody and plasma EBV DNA for NPC detection, with slightly inferior performance of the EBV antibody score. Cost-effectiveness studies are needed to guide screening implementation.

    Abstract: Adenocarcinoma is the most dominant type of lung cancer in never-smoker patients. The risk alleles from genome-wide association studies have small odds ratios and unclear biologic roles. Here we have taken an approach featuring suitable medical actionability to identify alleles with low population frequency but high disease-causing potential. Patients and Methods Whole-genome sequencing was performed for a family with an unusually high density of lung adenocarcinoma with available DNA from the affected mother, four affected daughters, and one nonaffected son. Candidate risk alleles were confirmed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectroscopy. Validation was conducted in an external cohort of 1,135 participants without cancer and 1,312 patients with lung adenocarcinoma. Family follow-ups were performed by genotyping the relatives of the original proband and the relatives of the identified risk-allele carriers. Low-dose computed tomography scans of the chest were evaluated for lung abnormalities. Results YAP1 R331W missense mutation from the original family was identified and validated in the external controls and the cohort with lung adenocarcinoma. The YAP1 mutant-allele carrier frequency was 1.1% in patients with lung adenocarcinoma compared with 0.18% in controls (P = .0095), yielding an odds ratio (adjusted for age, sex, and smoking status) of 5.9. Among the relatives, YAP1-mutant carriers have overwhelmingly higher frequencies of developing lung adenocarcinoma or ground-glass opacity lung lesions than those who do not carry the mutation (10:0 v 1:7; P 〈 .001). YAP1 mutation was shown to increase the colony formation ability and invasion potential of lung cancer cells. Conclusion These results implicated YAP1 R331W as an allele predisposed for lung adenocarcinoma with high familial penetrance. Low-dose computed tomography scans may be recommended to this subpopulation, which is at high risk for lung cancer, for personalized prevention and health management.

    Abstract: 11507 Background: For advanced LPS and LMS, the two most common histologies in soft tissue sarcoma, there are limited treatment options that readily balance efficacy and toxicity. Patients (pts) treated with E had an improved median overall survival (OS) in a phase III randomized study compared to dacarbazine but with an unsatisfactory 4% objective response rate (ORR). Early studies of L, a multi-targeted anti-angiogenic inhibitor, had suggested efficacy in sarcoma pts. We hypothesized that the combination of anti-angiogenic agent and chemotherapy could potentiate treatment benefit and aimed to explore the safety and efficacy of L + E in advanced LMS and LPS. Methods: LEADER was a single-arm phase Ib/II study for advanced adult LMS and LPS pts who had received no more than 2 lines of systemic chemotherapy. The phase Ib part (starting dose: L 18mg/day, E 1.1mg/m 2 ) had been reported and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was determined at L 14mg/day and E 1.1mg/m 2 D1, D8 every 21 days. The primary endpoint of the phase II part was ORR by RECIST 1.1, secondary endpoints included ORR by Choi criteria, progression-free survival (PFS), 6-month PFS rate, and OS. With α = 0.05 and 80% power, the pts needed for stage I and total of the Simon 2-stage design was 13 and 27 pts, respectively. Results: As of Jan 22, 2020, 20 pts (F/M 13/7) had been treated with at least one cycle of L + E; 14 were LMS (5 uterine, 9 non-uterine) and 6 were LPS (4 dedifferentiated, 2 myxoid round cell). The median age was 51 (range 29-73); the median lines of treatment(s) received before enrollment was 1 (range 0-3). 18 pts were evaluable for primary endpoint: the ORR by RECIST 1.1 was 27 % (5/18) (95% CI 10-53%). The ORR by Choi criteria was 67 % (12/18) (95% CI 41-87%). With 8 PFS events, the median PFS and 6-month PFS rate was 56 weeks (95% CI 25-not reached) and 72%, respectively. There were no OS events. The ORRs by RECIST 1.1 between different L starting doses were not significantly different (18mg 33% (2/6) vs 14mg 25% (3/12), p = 0.7). 15 pts experienced at-least one grade (gr) 3 or 4 adverse event (AE); gr 3 or 4 AEs occurred in 〉 1 pts included (% of phase Ib, % of phase II pts) hypertension (n = 4) (67%, 0%); hand-foot-syndrome (n = 4) (50%, 7%), proteinuria (n = 3) (0%, 25%), febrile neutropenia (n = 2) (17% vs 5%), neutropenia (n = 6) (50% vs 25%). The RP2D was associated with overall lower gr3/4 AEs except for proteinuria. Conclusions: L + E had shown promising efficacy in advanced LMS and LPS. L at 14mg/day had a better AE profile without compromising activity. The exploratory biomarker study of LEADER is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03526679 .
