    Abstract: The Abelson murine leukemia virus (Ab-MLV), like other retroviruses that contain v- onc genes, arose following a recombination event between a replicating retrovirus and a cellular oncogene. Although experimentally validated models have been presented to address the mechanism by which oncogene capture occurs, very little is known about the events that influence emerging viruses following the recombination event that incorporates the cellular sequences. One feature that may play a role is the genetic makeup of the host in which the virus arises; a number of host genes, including oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, have been shown to affect the pathogenesis of many murine leukemia viruses. To examine how a host gene might affect an emerging v- onc gene-containing retrovirus, we studied the weakly oncogenic Ab-MLV-P90A strain, a mutant that generates highly oncogenic variants in vivo, and compared the viral populations in normal mice and mice lacking the p53 tumor suppressor gene. While variants arose in both p53 +/+ and p53 − / − tumors, the samples from the wild-type animals contained a more diverse virus population. Differences in virus population diversity were not observed when wild-type and null animals were infected with a highly oncogenic wild-type strain of Ab-MLV. These results indicate that p53 , and presumably other host genes, affects the selective forces that operate on virus populations in vivo and likely influences the evolution of oncogenic retroviruses such as Ab-MLV.

    Abstract: Mice lacking Tbk1 activity exhibit immune cell infiltrates in multiple tissues, altered circulating immune cell compartments, and increased susceptibility to LPS-induced lethality. TBK1 is critical for immunity against microbial pathogens that activate TLR4- and TLR3-dependent signaling pathways. To address the role of TBK1 in inflammation, mice were generated that harbor two copies of a mutant Tbk1 allele. This Tbk1Δ allele encodes a truncated Tbk1Δ protein that is catalytically inactive and expressed at very low levels. Upon LPS stimulation, macrophages from Tbk1Δ/Δ mice produce normal levels of proinflammatory cytokines (e.g., TNF-α), but IFN-β and RANTES expression and IRF3 DNA-binding activity are ablated. Three-month-old Tbk1Δ/Δ mice exhibit mononuclear and granulomatous cell infiltrates in multiple organs and inflammatory cell infiltrates in their skin, and they harbor a 2-fold greater amount of circulating monocytes than their Tbk1+/+ and Tbk1+/Δ littermates. Skin from 2-week-old Tbk1Δ/Δ mice is characterized by reactive changes, including hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, necrosis, inflammatory cell infiltrates, and edema. In response to LPS challenge, 3-month-old Tbk1Δ/Δ mice die more quickly and in greater numbers than their Tbk1+/+ and Tbk1+/Δ counterparts. This lethality is accompanied by an overproduction of several proinflammatory cytokines in the serum of Tbk1Δ/Δ mice, including TNF-α, GM-CSF, IL-6, and KC. This overproduction of serum cytokines in Tbk1Δ/Δ mice following LPS challenge and their increased susceptibility to LPS-induced lethality may result from the reactions of their larger circulating monocyte compartment and their greater numbers of extravasated immune cells.

    Abstract: 129 Background: KRAS and NRAS (RAS) mutations are considered driver mutations in gastrointestinal malignancies such as colorectal and pancreatic cancer. Our institution obtains broad molecular testing (commercial panels with full exon coverage of at least 300 genes) for all stage IV gastrointestinal malignancies that are reviewed at an internal molecular tumor board (MTB). The MTB subjectively felt there was less benefit from comprehensive molecular testing in RAS mutant tumors and wished to quantify this using standardized analysis according to validated guidelines. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 209 consecutive genomic sequencing results of advanced gastrointestinal malignancies at our institution dating from March 2016 until December 2019. We compared the number of “targetable” mutations in the RAS mutant and wild type (WT) malignancies, as analyzed by an interpretation service according to the Association of Molecular Pathology (AMP) guidelines. A lower AMP score corresponds to a higher level of evidence as a predictive biomarker. We also compared molecular tumor board specific recommendations for each group (excluding recommendations regarding RAS such as EGFR mAbs). Results: There were 134 RAS mutant and 75 RAS WT cases. Alterations with AMP scores of 1A,1B, and 1C were more commonly seen in the RAS WT population 18/75 and 9/134 respectively (24.0% versus 6.7% p-value=0.0004). 39 of 75 cases in RAS WT and 27/134 in RAS mutant (52.0 versus 20.1%, p-value 〈 0.0001) cohort had at least one alteration that was deemed actionable by our institution’s current MTB criteria. Conclusions: Actionable mutations were significantly less common in the RAS mutant versus RAS WT population, and further studies assessing the value of comprehensive genomic testing in RAS mutant gastrointestinal malignancies may be warranted.

    Abstract: Purpose: Aberrations in genetic sequences encoding the tyrosine kinase receptor RET lead to oncogenic signaling that is targetable with anti-RET multikinase inhibitors. Understanding the comprehensive genomic landscape of RET aberrations across multiple cancers may facilitate clinical trial development targeting RET. Experimental Design: We interrogated the molecular portfolio of 4,871 patients with diverse malignancies for the presence of RET aberrations using Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments–certified targeted next-generation sequencing of 182 or 236 gene panels. Results: Among diverse cancers, RET aberrations were identified in 88 cases [1.8% (88/4, 871)], with mutations being the most common alteration [38.6% (34/88)] , followed by fusions [30.7% (27/88), including a novel SQSTM1-RET] and amplifications [25% (22/88)] . Most patients had coexisting aberrations in addition to RET anomalies [81.8% (72/88)], with the most common being in TP53-associated genes [59.1% (52/88)] , cell cycle–associated genes [39.8% (35/88)], the PI3K signaling pathway [30.7% (27/88)] , MAPK effectors [22.7% (20/88)], or other tyrosine kinase families [21.6% (19/88)] . RET fusions were mutually exclusive with MAPK signaling pathway alterations. All 72 patients harboring coaberrations had distinct genomic portfolios, and most [98.6% (71/72)] had potentially targetable coaberrations with either an FDA-approved or an investigational agent. Two cases with lung (KIF5B-RET) and medullary thyroid carcinoma (RET M918T) that responded to a vandetanib (multikinase RET inhibitor)-containing regimen are shown. Conclusions: RET aberrations were seen in 1.8% of diverse cancers, with most cases harboring actionable, albeit distinct, coexisting alterations. The current report suggests that optimal targeting of patients with RET anomalies will require customized combination strategies. Clin Cancer Res; 23(8); 1988–97. ©2016 AACR.
