Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to explore the genetic alterations and to identify good responders in the experimental arm in the tumor samples from newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) patients enrolled in JCOG0911; a randomized phase II trial was conducted to compare the efficacy of interferonβ (IFNβ) plus temozolomide (TMZ) with that of TMZ alone. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Of 122 tumors, we performed deep targeted sequencing to determine the somatic mutations, copy number variations, and tumor mutation burden; pyrosequencing for O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation; Sanger sequencing for the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) promoter; and microsatellite instability (MSI) testing in 95, 91, 91 and 72 tumors, respectively. We performed a multivariable Cox regression analysis using backward stepwise selection of variables including clinical factors (sex, age, performance status, residual tumor after resection, tumor location) and genetic alterations. RESULTS Deep sequencing detected an IDH1 mutation in 13 tumors (14%). The MGMT promoter methylation by quantitative pyrosequencing was observed in 41% of the tumors. A mutation in the TERT promoter was observed in 69% of the tumors. While high tumor mutation burden (> 10 mutations per megabase) was seen in four tumors, none of the tumors displayed MSI-high. The clinical and genetic factors considered as independent favorable prognostic factors were gross total resection (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.49, 95% confidence interval, 0.30-0.81, P = 0.0049) and MGMT promoter methylation (HR: 0.43, 0.21-0.88, P = 0.023). However, tumor location at the temporal lobe (HR: 1.90, 1.22-2.95, P = 0.0046) was an independent unfavorable prognostic factor. No predictive factors specific to the TMZ + IFNβ + Radiotherapy (RT) group were found. CONCLUSION This additional sub-analytical study of JCOG0911 among patients with newly diagnosed GBM showed that tumor location at the temporal lobe, gross total resection, and MGMT promoter methylation were significant prognostic factors, although no factors specific to IFNβ addition were identified.

Doyle LA, Nowak JA, Nathenson MJ, Thornton K, Wagner AJ, Johnson JM, Albrayak A, George S, Sholl LM. Characteristics of mismatch repair deficiency in sarcomas. Mod Pathol 2019; 32:977-987. [PMID: 30765880 DOI: 10.1038/s41379-019-0202-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2018] [Revised: 12/13/2018] [Accepted: 12/13/2018] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Due to the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy in tumors with deficient mismatch repair, there has been a surge in demand for mismatch repair deficiency testing in various tumor types. Mismatch repair deficiency is not known to play a significant role in the pathogenesis of sarcomas, and the utility of testing these tumor types is not established. This study aimed to determine the frequency, pattern, and clinicopathologic correlates of mismatch repair deficiency in sarcomas. Three hundred and four sarcomas were profiled using a genomic platform that employs massively parallel sequencing to interrogate 447 cancer-associated genes. Mismatch repair status was evaluated by determining the number of small insertion/deletion events occurring in homopolymer regions per megabase of exonic sequence data across all genes. Molecular characteristics of mismatch repair-deficient sarcomas were compared to mismatch repair-deficient carcinomas (n = 70) also identified using the sequencing panel. Seven sarcomas (2.3%) were classified as mismatch repair-deficient: four unclassified sarcomas, and one each of pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma, epithelioid leiomyosarcoma and malignant PEComa. One patient had an established diagnosis of Lynch syndrome. In the remaining patients, the mismatch repair gene mutation was confirmed or suspected to be somatic. Mismatch repair immunohistochemistry confirmed the mismatch repair-deficiency status of all cases with alterations in the tested proteins. As expected, mismatch repair-deficient sarcomas showed a significantly elevated tumor mutation burden relative to mismatch repair-proficient sarcomas (median 16 versus 4.6, p < 0.001). However, in comparison to mismatch repair-deficient carcinomas, mismatch repair-deficient sarcomas showed a lower tumor mutation burden (median 28 versus 16, p = 0.006) and a significantly greater degree of chromosomal instability. Among mismatch repair-deficient sarcomas, PD-L1 was variably expressed on tumor-associated macrophages but not on tumor cells. Three patients received pembrolizumab: two progressed and one has stable disease with five months follow-up. Mismatch repair deficiency in histologically classifiable sarcomas is rare (1%) and is more common in unclassified sarcomas (10%). Additional study is required to determine the predictive role of mismatch repair-deficiency in sarcomas for immunotherapy.
