NRAS A146

Therefore, the seven SNPs were identified as high-risk SNPs. Conclusions Given that SNPs have the potential to be candidates for cellular alterations brought on by mutations that are associated with cancer, this study provides vital information about how SNPs might be utilized as a diagnostic marker for cancer.

In addition to well-characterized MM drivers (KRAS, NRAS, etc.), 16 new candidate genes were found significantly mutated, including IKFZ3 (Aiolos), a transcription factor and direct target of degradation with lenalidomide therapy, harboring frameshift and stop-gain mutations in the protein dimerization domain which could affect complete differentiation of plasma cells...Conclusion These results highlight the power of genomic profiling in MM for early detection, discovery of novel drivers, monitoring of clonal selection and transformation to malignant disease. We show SMM is not a simple genomically-mature disorder, but rather a dynamic state with competing subclones, which could be leveraged for therapeutic interventions.

The MAPK DM, high TMB and persistent genomic instability suggest roles for MAPK-targeted therapies, immunotherapies and DNA damage repair pathway inhibitors, respectively, in EMD. Recurrent codon 61 mutations in RAS suggest a specific role in EMD progression.

In this cohort with population-based and real-world patients, no differences in patient characteristics or treatment modalities were seen between different RAS mt, except a higher frequency of right-colon primaries among KRAS mt compared with NRAS mt. KRAS -G12S conferred a worse OS compared with some other KRAS mt, whereas no other differences in OS were seen. It therefore seems as if different RAS mt behave quite similar.

INI1-deficient poorly differentiated carcinoma of the colon is a rare, aggressive colonic malignancy showing a serrated phenotype. Routine identification and subtyping are important keeping in mind the distinct tumor phenotype, resistance to conventional chemotherapy, and dismal prognosis.

P2 | "According to liquid biopsy before second- and third-line therapies, treatment sequences are: FOLFIRI + cetuximab (first-line), FOLFOX + cetuximab (second-line); irinotecan + cetuximab (third-line) in patients with plasma ctDNA RAS/BRAFV600E WT tumors. In patients with RAS/BRAFV600E mutant tumors, second-line is FOLFOX + bevacizumab, while third-line is regorafenib or trifluridine/tipiracil (investigator's choice)... Both tumor tissue- and liquid biopsy-based comprehensive genomic profiling by NGS identify additional molecular alterations, that could be involved in resistance to anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies, as compared to PCR-based tumor tissue analysis. CAPRI 2-GOIM trial will determine if NGS would allow better selection of RAS/BRAFV600E WT mCRC patients for the most appropriate treatments through three sequential lines of therapies."

MAPK DM were frequent in EMD, and detectable in ctDNA, suggesting roles for both MAPK-targeted therapies and for ctDNA as a biomarker in these patients. A high TMB was identified in patients lacking a MAPK driver mutation; immunotherapy should be considered in this subgroup.

KRAS mutated CRC patients in North Africa have been identified with incidence closer to the European figures. Beside established anti-CRC treatment, better understanding of the causality of CRC can be established by combining epidemiology and genetic/epigenetic on CRC etiology. This approach may be able to significantly reduce the burden of CRC in North Africa.

However, we also found mutations that are specific for one sister cell line only, pointing to individual subclones of the primary tumor as originating cells. Our data show that sequential sister cell lines can be used to study the clonal development of tumors and to elucidate the function of common and clone-specific mutations.

We report the NRAS mutation is common in cutaneous RDD, and NRAS A146T was the most frequent mutation in this cohort. Mutations in the NRAS gene can activate the RAS/MAPK signaling and have been reported to be associated with various cancers. It indicates that NRAS mutation in MAPK/ERK pathway may involve the pathogenesis of cutaneous RDD.

Notably, leukemias and MPDs frequently have mutations in KRAS and NRAS at either codon 12 or 61. Our GEMMs recapitulate the tissue-specificity of RAS mutations observed in patients and highlight the unique oncogenic activity of KrasQ61R.

In addition, this shows that high p53 expression in the pretreatment biopsy was associated with an incomplete response in surgical resection specimens after neoadjuvant treatment, and a HER-2 score 3+ can be a predictive factor of distant metastasis and local recurrence. Larger, prospective, and more studies are needed.

The clonal and subclonal mutational landscapes of RAS WT pts were analyzed using a mCRC-focused custom ctDNA sequencing panel. Randomized pts (1:1) received mFOLFOX6 plus either panitumumab or bevacizumab. The validated ultra-deep plasma sequencing panel was concordant with tissue sequencing and detected tumor heterogeneity. The PARADIGM study will report the efficacy of anti-EGFR/VEGF therapies; post-treatment collection of ctDNA is ongoing. The relationship between therapeutic effects and clonal and subclonal mutational landscapes will be examined in the future.
