      Introduction

      Lung cancer with family history have been increasing gradually of late years in East Asian, especially those presenting as pulmonary ground-glass nodules (GGNs). The predisposition of GGN with lung cancer family history remains baffling.

      Methods

      This prospective study (NCT04220268) enrolled patients with pulmonary pre-invasive or invasive adenocarcinoma, which presenting as GGN in computer tomography (CT) scans. We used extreme phenotype approach to select 50 GGN patients with a family history of lung cancer (FHLC) in one or more first-degree relatives. Blood samples were collected and sequenced by whole exome sequencing (WES) to investigate rare but potential pathogenic germline mutations with a stepwise filtering strategy including: variant quality and classification, minor allele frequency (MAF) < 0.01 in public and local database, functional prediction and family segregation.

      Results

      In total, 2325 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and 238 frameshift mutations with MAF <0.01 were finally identified through the filter. The number of these rare, damaging germline mutations in non-smoking patients were significantly higher than those in smoking patients (Spearman’s ρ= -0.33, p=0.02). Fifty-nine SNVs and 10 frameshifts were not only rare and deleterious but also presented in more than two families. Importantly, twenty of them had been reported to be associated with higher risk or carcinogenesis of lung cancer. Two of them were validated in 126 nonoverlapping susceptibility loci for lung carcinogenesis identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

      Conclusion

      Patients with GGNs and FHLC may have inheritable carcinogenesis mutations. These variants may potentially contribute to the risk of pulmonary pre-invasive adenocarcinoma susceptibility in Chinese population. Non-smoking patients with GGN probably had higher genetic predisposition than the smoking patients.

      Introduction

      To explore the quantitative variables of thoracic computed tomography for predicting the pathologic malignancy of cT1 lung adenocarcinoma.

      Methods

      We retrospectively collected data from 96 consecutive patients with clinical T1 lung adenocarcinoma. -160 Hu was used as the cutoff of solid and ground glass opacity portion. AAH, AIS, MIA and LPA were considered as less malignant (LM), while other subtypes of IACs were included into more malignant (MM) group.

      Results

      The area under receiver operating characteristic curves of m-CT value, D_solid, D_whole, Area_solid, Area_whole, 1D_CTR and 2D_CTR were respectively 0.89 (95%CI, 0.81 ~ 0.97; Se=83%, Sp=93%), 0.895 (95%CI, 0.832 ~ 0.958; Se=88%, Sp=79%), 0.736 (95%CI, 0.634 ~ 0.839; Se=87%, Sp=60%), 0.89(95%CI, 0.82 ~ 0.96; Se=87%, Sp=81%), 0.738 (95%CI, 0.634 ~ 0.841; Se=83%, Sp=63%), 0.861 (95%CI, 0.780 ~ 0.942; Se=90%, Sp=74%), 0.869 (95%CI, 0.788 ~ 0.949; Se=85%, Sp=84%). Multiple logistic regression revealed that mean CT value was the independent risk predictor of more pathologically malignancy of clinically T1 lung adenocarcinoma (p=0.003).

      MA13.09 - Heterogeneous Genomic Evolution and Immune Microenvironments in Metastatic Lung Cancer (ID 1155)

      16:45 - 17:45  |  Author(s): Jian Su

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Introduction

      The comprehensive insights into the genomic evolution and immune microenvironments of lung cancer metastasis remain unknown. Furthermore, whether non-stochastic patterns of lung cancer metastases to different sites exist is elusive.

      Methods

      We investigated the genomic evolution and immune microenvironments of paired primary-metastatic (P-M) tumors by employing multi-region whole-exome sequencing and immunohistochemistry in 179 samples from 51 lung cancer patients with metastases to the pleura, bone, adrenal gland, brain and additional lymph nodes.

      Results

      Our data revealed differences in genomic landscapes, molecular determinants, seeding patterns, and lymphocyte infiltration among different metastatic sites. Metastatic lymph nodes showed the highest P-M genomic divergence, followed by pleura, brain, bone, and adrenal gland. We identified MYC amplification as a selected event driving metastasis and associated with worse overall survival (P = 0.013). Interestingly, EGFR amplification and TP53 mutations were preferably selected in distant metastases whereas RICTOR amplification was selected in regional metastases (pleura and lymph nodes). Based on spatial tumor growth model, we demonstrated commonly late arising of metastatic seeding (61.1%) of lung cancer with quantitative evidence. However, mutation rate and timing of dissemination varied among different metastatic sites. Metastases at regional tissues were more frequently infiltrated with CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) than those at distant organs, among which bone metastases were merely infiltrated with CD8+ TILs. Furthermore, monoclonal and polyclonal seeding were associated with rapid and attenuated progression (P = 0.013), respectively, which supports the potential value as a prognostic predictor. Immune-heterogeneity and -homogeneity were primarily driven by arm-level and focal copy number events in primary tumors, respectively, indicating distinct mechanisms of tumor immune escape during metastasis.figure 1.jpgfigure 2.jpg

      Conclusion

      These findings implied the combinatorial role of multiple factors in shaping patterns of dissemination and advanced the clinical evaluation and intervention of lung cancer metastasis.

      P72.02 - Cellular Landscape of Tumor Immune Microenvironment and Genetic Signatures Identify Prognostic of LUAD (ID 736)

      00:00 - 00:00  |  Author(s): Jian Su

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Introduction

      Tumour microenvironment (TME) has been recognized to support the initiation and progression of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). The innate and adaptive immune cells in the lung TME harbour both tumour-promoting and tumour-suppressing activities, which may also predict clinical outcome. Therefore we carried out a systematic analysis of cellular interactions in tumor immune microenvironment. And identify cell-intrinsic and cell-extrinsic pathways cell types and activation states that may serve as biomarkers of overall survival (OS).

      Methods

      Public gene-expression data and relevant clinical annotation were obtained from Gene-Expression Omnibus (GEO) and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Three TME infiltration patterns were comprehensively analyzed in 442 LUAD patients using CIBERSORT algorithm and the LM22 gene signature. Based on the TME patterns, we build a model to calculate TMEscore based on gene set variation analysis via ssGSEA algorithm. Functional enrichment analysis were performed by GO and KEGG.

      Results

      Four datasets with available outcome data and clinical information in GEO and TCGA-LUAD were enrolled in our study. GSE72094 was used as the training cohort, while GSE11969, GSE26939, GSE31210 and TCGA-LUAD was used as validation cohorts. TME cell network established based on GSE72094 depicted a comprehensive landscape of tumor-immune cell interactions, cell lineages, and their correlation with OS (Fig. 1A, 1B). Three subgroups with distinct TME signature gene sets were obtained/identified based on unsupervised hierarchical clustering in 442 LUAD cases. OS in TME gene subgroup B was significantly longer than which in TME gene subgroup A and subgroup C. TME gene group B was associated immune activation (Fig. 1C). TMEscore was further constructed using principal component analysis algorithms. Lower TMEscore is significantly associated with better prognosis. Functional annotation analysis showed TMEscore had a positive correlation with cell cycle, DNA replication, homologous recombination, mismatch repair, nucleotide excision repair and DNA damage repair (Fig. 1D). The enriched pathways in subtype with lowest/low TMEscore involved bile_acid_metabolism, fatty_acid_metabolism and myogenesis. While high TMEscore subtype was characterized by significant enrichment of interferon_alpha_response, myc_targets and unfolded_protein_response pathway (Fig. 1E). TMEscore model was then validated on 525 patients from GEO datasets and 585 patients from TCGA-LUAD project and proved to be a valuable method for prognostic stratification of LUAD except for TNM stage(Fig. 1F).

      Conclusion

      Variability in the composition of the tumor immune microenvironment contributes to heterogeneity in OS. Deeper validation is in need to define the positive association between lower TMEscore and longer OS.

      P85.02 - NGS could not Replace FISH Regarding to MET Amplification as an Optimal Biomarker (ID 1581)

      00:00 - 00:00  |  Author(s): Jian Su

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Introduction

      MET amplification (MET amp) is known as an important mechanism of resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC. We investigated the association between survival benefits and MET status identified by different methods, to explore the appropriate biomarker to select patient for MET-TKIs treatment in advanced NSCLC.

      Methods

      Method: FISH (fluorescence in situ hybridization), IHC (immunohistochemistry) and NGS (next generation sequences) were performed prospectively from FFPE/liquid samples with NSCLC. MET amplification by FISH was defined as MET/CEP7 ratio>2 or CN(copy number )>6 and served as the standard reference for over-express by IHC and copy number gain (CNG) by NGS. Objective response (OR) and PFS were used to confirm optimal biomarker for MET inhibitor.

      Results

      We identified MET dysregulation of 37 NSCLC patients by FISH, IHC and NGS before MET-TKIs administration and assessing the survival benefits of 33 cases treated MET inhibitor. The consistence of FISH, IHC and NGS was only 54%. They are the different population. MET amplification identified by FISH proved the best predictive efficiency for survival benefits. The PR rate was 82% (18/22) and median PFS was 4.8 months in MET amp, compared to 1.0 months for cases with non-MET amp (P= 0.004). Both MET dysregulations identified by NGS or IHC failed to distinguish the significant survival difference in patients with MET-TKIs. Comparing with MET amplification by FISH, effective cases were more seen in patients with CNG > 4.0 or IHC score >290 . Based on these two cut-off values:CNG > 4.0 or IHC score >290 still did not predict efficacy of MET inhibitors, suggesting CNG by NGS had no significant associations with efficacy benefits.

      Conclusion

      Compared to MET amplification identified by FISH, CNG dysregulation by NGS or MET protein over-express by IHC could not serves as the predictive biomarker for MET inhibitors.
