    Abstract: 67 Background: HER2 amplified cases are the only subset of gastric carcinoma (GC) patients with an approved targeted therapy (≈20%). In GC it is still unknown if there is a mutually exclusive pattern of mutations in major driver oncogenes. We performed a systematic search for targetable oncogenes in a cohort of HER2 amplified GC patients. Methods: 53 Formalin-fixed paraffin embedded samples from HER2 amplified GC patients (43 tumor and 10 normal samples) were selected for next generation sequencing (NGS). Before DNA extraction a macrodissection procedure was performed to guarantee at least 30% tumor in all cases. DNA samples were sequenced using the Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine (PGM) sequencing platform (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA). The Ion AmpliSeq Cancer Hotspot Panel v2 was used. This panel encompasses more than 2800 mutational hotspots of 50 oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes. Data were processed using the Ion Torrent platform-specific pipeline software Torrent suite v4.2. Moreover, sequencing data were analyzed with Ion Reporter software 4.2 to detect any copy number alteration of the genes included in the panel. Results: We successfully sequenced all samples. We identified 89 mutations in 12 genes (range from 1 ~ 9). The most frequent significant mutations included TP53 mutations (30), PI3KCA (3), SMAD4 (3), CDKN2A (4), CTNNB1 (3) and MET (3). Other mutations were found in KRAS, NOTCH, APC, and VHL genes. We also detected potential amplifications in the KRAS (4), EGFR (9), PI3KCA (11), AKT (6), FGFR (6), CDKN2A (4) and CDH1(8) genes. Among 43 tumor specimens, 86% of specimens harbored at least one genetic alteration, most of them linked to actionable mutations or amplifications Conclusions: Within HER2 amplified GCs, there are additional subsets with a potentially targetable oncogene. Future testing for these targets will benefit from including HER2 amplified GC patients Supported by the Spanish Ministry of Health, Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias grant PI11/01005 and European FEDER (PN I+D+I 2008‐20011).

    Abstract: Previous studies have highlighted the importance of an appropriate human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) evaluation for the proper identification of patients eligible for treatment with anti-HER2 targeted therapies. Today, the relationship remains unclear between the level of HER2 amplification and the outcome of HER2-positive gastric cancer treated with first-line chemotherapy with trastuzumab. The aim of this study was to determine whether the level of HER2 gene amplification determined by the HER2/CEP17 ratio and HER2 gene copy number could significantly predict some benefit in overall survival and response to therapy in advanced gastric cancer treated with trastuzumab-based chemotherapy. Patients and Methods Ninety patients with metastatic gastric cancer treated with first-line trastuzumab-based chemotherapy were studied. The optimal cutoff values for HER2/CEP17 ratio and HER2 gene copy number (GCN) for discriminating positive results in terms of response and prolonged survival were determined using receiver operating characteristic curves analyses. Results In this study, a median HER2/CEP17 ratio of 6.11 (95% CI, 2.27 to 21.90) and a median HER2 gene copy number of 11.90 (95% CI, 3.30 to 43.80) were found. A mean HER2/CEP17 ratio of 4.7 was identified as the optimal cutoff value discriminating sensitive and refractory patients (P = .005). Similarly, the optimal cutoff for predicting survival longer than 12 months was 4.45 (P = .005), and for survival longer than 16 months was 5.15 (P = .004). For HER2 GCN, the optimal cutoff values were 9.4, 10.0, and 9.5, respectively (P = .02). Conclusion The level of HER2 gene amplification significantly predicts sensitivity to therapy and overall survival in advanced gastric cancer treated with trastuzumab-based chemotherapy.

    Abstract: This study assessed biomarkers for cetuximab efficacy in tissue samples collected during a phase I dose-escalation study exploring every second week administration of cetuximab as first-line therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Patients and Methods Sixty-two patients received cetuximab monotherapy for 6 weeks, followed by cetuximab plus infusional fluorouracil, leucovorin, and irinotecan until disease progression. Patients in the control arm received cetuximab as a 400 mg/m 2 initial dose then 250 mg/m 2 per week; patients in the dose-escalation arms received 400 to 700 mg/m 2 every second week. Tumor and skin biopsies were taken for immunohistochemical and microarray expression analyses (tumor only) at baseline and week 4. Plasma was collected for proteomic analysis at baseline and week 4. KRAS tumor mutation status was assessed. Results In subsets of paired skin samples from 35 patients, cetuximab treatment was associated with substantial downregulation of phospho(p)-EGFR, p-MAPK and proliferation and substantial upregulation of p27 Kip1 and p-STAT3 levels. No marked difference in these effects was noted for different schedules of administration and dose levels. In the cetuximab monotherapy phase, responses were seen only in patients whose tumors were wild-type for KRAS (eight of 29 v zero of 19 for KRAS mutant tumors; P = .015). Progression-free survival was longer for patients with KRAS wild-type compared with KRAS mutant tumors (log-rank P = .048). Genomics/proteomics analyses (42 and 45 patients, respectively) identified candidate biomarkers associated with response. Conclusion Biomarker analysis supported the functional equivalence of weekly and every second week administration of cetuximab and provided further confirmation that patients with KRAS wild-type mCRC were those most likely to benefit from cetuximab treatment.

    Elective Cancer Surgery in COVID-19–Free Surgical Pathways During the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic: An International, Multicenter, Comparative Cohort Study
    American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) ; 2021

    Abstract: As cancer surgery restarts after the first COVID-19 wave, health care providers urgently require data to determine where elective surgery is best performed. This study aimed to determine whether COVID-19–free surgical pathways were associated with lower postoperative pulmonary complication rates compared with hospitals with no defined pathway. PATIENTS AND METHODS This international, multicenter cohort study included patients who underwent elective surgery for 10 solid cancer types without preoperative suspicion of SARS-CoV-2. Participating hospitals included patients from local emergence of SARS-CoV-2 until April 19, 2020. At the time of surgery, hospitals were defined as having a COVID-19–free surgical pathway (complete segregation of the operating theater, critical care, and inpatient ward areas) or no defined pathway (incomplete or no segregation, areas shared with patients with COVID-19). The primary outcome was 30-day postoperative pulmonary complications (pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, unexpected ventilation). RESULTS Of 9,171 patients from 447 hospitals in 55 countries, 2,481 were operated on in COVID-19–free surgical pathways. Patients who underwent surgery within COVID-19–free surgical pathways were younger with fewer comorbidities than those in hospitals with no defined pathway but with similar proportions of major surgery. After adjustment, pulmonary complication rates were lower with COVID-19–free surgical pathways (2.2% v 4.9%; adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 0.62; 95% CI, 0.44 to 0.86). This was consistent in sensitivity analyses for low-risk patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists grade 1/2), propensity score–matched models, and patients with negative SARS-CoV-2 preoperative tests. The postoperative SARS-CoV-2 infection rate was also lower in COVID-19–free surgical pathways (2.1% v 3.6%; aOR, 0.53; 95% CI, 0.36 to 0.76). CONCLUSION Within available resources, dedicated COVID-19–free surgical pathways should be established to provide safe elective cancer surgery during current and before future SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks.
