Abstract:
Introduction: Male breast cancer (BCa) is a rare disease accounting for less than 1% of all breast cancers (BC) and 1% of all cancers in males. The clinical management is largely extrapolated from female BCa. Few studies have examined the genomic landscape of male BCas, with six male BCas included in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Familial studies of male BCas have shown genomic changes similar to female BCa, while a larger targeted sequencing study of 59 male breast cancers identified recurrent mutations affecting PIK3CA and GATA3. To date, there is still limited information regarding the genomic landscape of male BCas; particularly in the context of identifying targeted treatments. To reveal genomic changes that characterize male BCas in the context of known cancer driver genes linked to prognosis and targeted agents, we performed a targeted sequencing study on 248 male BCas from the International Male Breast Cancer Program. Methods: 248 primary M0, ER+ve, HER2-ve male BCas enrolled in the Part 1 (retrospective joint analysis) International Male Breast Cancer Program of 1483 patients diagnosed between 1990-2010 (Cardoso et al. Annals of Oncology, 2018) were processed for nucleic acid extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissues. Using the Thermo Fisher Scientific Oncomine Comprehensive Assay v3 (OCAv3), a validated targeted sequencing panel currently used in the NCI-MATCH trial (NCT02465060), we evaluated mutational and copy number variations (CNVs) of genes that are prognostic or predictive to targeted therapies currently in use in the clinic or late-stage clinical trials. The OCAv3 DNA pan-cancer panel assays 115 genes for determining mutational status (48 full coding and 67 hotspot) as well as copy-number assessment in 43 genes. The OCAv3 uses Ampliseq-based technology linked to the Oncomine NGS workflow to identify actionable mutations and CNVs Results: Of the 248 samples assayed, 216 passed strict quality control parameters (87.1%). Using the Oncomine NGS workflow, actionable mutations at ≥5% variant allele frequency (VAF) were most frequently identified in PIK3CA (29.2%), BRCA2 (11.1%), NF1 (11.6%), indels in TP53 (10.6%), ATR (5.6%), ATRX (5.1%), indel BRCA2 (5.1%), TP53 point mutations (4.6%), MET (4.6%), ATM (4.6%), NOTCH2 (4.6%), CHEK1 (4.2%), FANCI (4.2%), PTEN (3.2%) with a number of additional genes identified at lower frequencies. Gene amplifications were most frequently detected in MYC (24.5%), FGFR1 (14.8%), CCND1 (12%), FGF3 (9.7%), FGF19 (9.7%), MDM2 (6.5%), CDK4 (1.4%), FGFR3, MDM4, ERBB2 (0.9% each), and FLT3, AR, MYCL, CDK6, IGF1R, FGFR4, KRAS, AKT3 and ESR1 (0.5% each). Although the results here describe the mutations and copy-number changes deemed to be actionable, further analysis of all non-actionable somatic mutations and CNVs will be presented and compared to female BCas previously assayed using the same panel. Conclusion: In this targeted sequencing study of the largest series of male BCas to our knowledge, we have revealed that PIK3CA continues to be a frequently altered gene in both male and female BCas. However, there is an enrichment of mutations in genes related to DNA repair in male BCs. Interestingly, while MYC is commonly amplified in female BCa, a higher frequency of amplified cases were seen in male BCas, in contrast to female BCas. Together with our previously generated transcriptional profiling data in this data set, we believe that both common and unique biological processes comprising male and female BCas will ultimately improve their clinical management and move towards the goal of precision medicine.
