Tumor genomic heterogeneity in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients from Latin America (AACR 2024)
The prevalence of mutations and fusions in the eight most relevant NSCLC genes (EGFR, KRAS, ALK, MET, RET, BRAF, ROS1 and ERBB2) varies based on sociodemographic, clinical and lifestyle characteristics. Clear distinctions emerged in the prevalence of EGFR, KRAS and ERBB2 mutations among the three countries (EGFR: 20.9%, 17.6%, 35.3%; KRAS: 21.8%, 15.6%, 10.3%; ERBB2: 2.8%, 3.3%, 4.4% for Brazil, Chile, and Peru, respectively). Furthermore, distinct association patterns were identified between the prevalence of genetic alterations and the studied factors, with attributes such as sex, tobacco use and ethnicity mostly influencing the occurrence of EGFR, ALK and ROS1 alterations.

Clinical and Genetic Characteristics of Early and Advanced Gastric Cancer. (PubMed)
Among these patients, five harbored mutated PIK3CA, while the remaining patient had a mutation in ALK. AGC patients more frequently exhibited alterations of PIK3CA, KRAS, and ERBB2 as somatic oncogenic drivers, and displayed a higher prevalence of cumulative genetic events, including increased rates of PIK3CA mutations, enhanced detection of immunotherapy biomarkers, and mutations of the ESR1 gene.

Cytomorphology of Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma with MET Exon 14 Skipping Mutations (USCAP 2024)
One patient received Capmatinib and one patient Pembrolizumab. This study showed that NSCLC with METex14 are poorly differenciated tumors with necrotic background,multinucleation,atypical mitoses,and pleomorphic/sarcomatoid features. Larger studies are needed to confirm our preliminary findings. Routine NGS testing on cytological specimens is feasible and essential for METex14 testing and select patients with advanced lung NSCLC for targeted therapies.

Fibromatosis of the Breast: Clinicopathologic Features and Treatment Outcomes (USCAP 2024)
β-catenin nuclear immunoreactivity is not a consistent feature in fibromatosis of the breast. Given that these lesions are managed via active surveillance, we in turn have relied less on β-catenin expression and more on morphologic assessment and, if needed, NGS to render the diagnosis of fibromatosis.

Large-Scale Comparative Analysis of Gene Fusion Detection across Solid Tumors Using AMPâ„¢ and Amplicon-Based Assays (AMP 2023)
Our results suggest that different gene fusions have higher frequency than previously reported in the literature across different tumor types (mostly thoracic). They also support the rationale to adopt AMP assay for fusion detection given its higher sensitivity compared to amplicon-based sequencing. Novel fusions and variants of unknown significance detected merit further characterization.

Molecular profiling of advanced urothelial carcinoma in Ireland through next generation sequencing (ECP 2023)
Conclusion While the identification of 11 cases of UC with FGFR3 alterations is in keeping with published research and of potential therapeutic benefit, this study also supports the evidence of a spectrum of other genetic mutations of potential clinical significance, including co-mutations, most notably PIK3CA and ERBB2. The location of the mutations identified in our study is in keeping with The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) findings and suggestive of APOBEC mutagenic activity, potentially predictive of prognosis and therapeutic response.

Severe Systemic Auto-Inflammation in an Elderly Woman with Clonal Hematopoiesis (AMP Europe 2023)
The discovery of clonal hematopoiesis in this elderly woman with a wide spectrum of severe auto-inflammatory conditions supports a potentially intriguing link between somatic blood mutations and her adult- onset rheumatologic disorders. Mechanistically, disrupted SRSF2-mediated splicing may be driving aberrant antigen presentation by bone marrow-derived dendritic cells in her skin and other organs. Causal relationships between somatic blood mutations and autoimmune/auto-inflammatory conditions have been established in patients with hematologic malignancies and conditions like VEXAS syndrome.

The impact of genetic disorders on the effectiveness of immunotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC (EACR 2023)
68 patients (median age 63 years, 37 women, 31 men, 15 non-smokers) received immunotherapy: 1st line (pembrolizumab alone or in combination with chemotherapy, n=44) or 2nd line (atezolizumab or nivolumab, n=24). KRAS mutations had no effect on OS. The combined analysis of all genetic abnormalities showed no impact on PFS and OS.ConclusionIt appears that the effectiveness of immunotherapy is not greatly affected by KRAS mutations and other genetic disorders in patients with NSCLC who do not show abnormalities in the EGFR, ALK, and ROS1 genes.

Comparison between liquid biopsy and tissue NGS in two cohorts of advanced NSCLC. (ASCO 2023)
To our knowledge, this is the first retrospective observational study where liquid biopsy and tissue NGS are compared in two different cohorts of patients with advanced NSCLC. Time to obtain results was shorter for blood NGS than tissue sequencing, and liquid biopsy provided molecular information in cases in which tissue NGS is not available. Further studies to identify patients in which liquid biopsy could replace tissue analysis are needed.

The Utility of Molecular Testing as a Diagnostic Aid in Small Biopsies of Well-Differentiated Hepatocellular Lesions (USCAP 2023)
Our findings suggest that targeted molecular testing has potential value in distinguishing well-differentiated HCC from benign lesions in small needle biopsies. All HCC cases demonstrated CTNNB1 and/or TERT promoter mutations, and while CTNNB1 mutations were infrequent in this small cohort of WDHL/Ns, the presence of TERT promoter mutation would strongly favor a diagnosis of HCC. A negative result, particularly in a small molecular panel is less informative; however, these small samples may be insufficient for larger, more comprehensive molecular testing.

Genomic Profiling of Metastatic Tumors in Pleural Effusion Specimens: Comparison of Fresh Supernatant, Fresh Cell Pellet, and Cell Block Material for Testing (USCAP 2023)
In our validation study, leftover supernatants from refrigerated unfixed cytology PE specimens proved to be a reliable and accurate alternative source to cell blocks for genomic profiling in metastatic disease. In our hands, cell pellets revealed slightly better results than supernatants due to a higher concordance rate and less read coverage needed for the NGS test.

A Single-Institution Cohort Study on Her2-Low Expression in Hormone-Receptor Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer Treated with Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibition by Palbociclib (AMP 2022)
Concurrent hormone therapy: letrozole (47), fulvestrant (20). Her2- low disease was present in more than one-third of patients treated with palbociclib for metastatic breast cancer, and was found in various tumor tissue sites. Clinical benefit of palbociclib was high in our cohort, and lower in the small number of patients who also presented with BRCA mutations.

Evaluating the Utility of Thermo Fisher Oncomine NGS Panels in Determining Copy Number Variation among Solid Tumors (AMP 2022)
Thirty-three of 34 tumor samples with copy number gains called by NGS were confirmed by an orthogonal method. Investigation of the only false-positive calling by NGS showed that the sample exhibited a much higher MAPD score, approaching the manufacturer's established cut-off. Overall, the analytical specificity of OCAv3 and OFA in detecting copy number gain is greater than 95%.

Mutations detected by Next Generation Sequencing in primary and metastatic melanoma samples and correlation with clinico-histopathological parameters (ECP 2022)
We present the preliminary results of our retro-spective study on 114 melanoma samples. We correlated their molecular status with different clinico-pathological parameters. BRAF mutated melanomas seem to can give rise to multifocal metastatic disease, even in the absence of TERTp mutation.

Costs of Next-Generation Sequencing Assays in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Micro-Costing Study. (PubMed, Curr Oncol)
Trusight Tumor 170 Kit was the most expensive NGS assay for NSCLC diagnostics; however, an economic evaluation is required to identify the most cost-effective NGS assay. Our study results could help inform decisions to select a robust platform for NSCLC diagnostics from fine needle aspirates, and future economic evaluations of the NGS platforms to guide treatment selections for NSCLC patients.

Incidence of NTRK genes fusion in adult brain tumours: A prospective cohort of 140 patients with cerebral gliomas and brain metastases (ESMO 2022)
The treatment of patients with TRK fusion cancer with a first-generation TRK inhibitor (such as larotrectinib or entrectinib) is associated with high response rates (>75%), regardless of tumour histology and presence of metastases, and acceptable toxicity profile. These are composed of 63 BM and 30 gliomas. Conclusions Due to the size of the population analysed, this study will provide pioneering data on the incidence of NTRK gene fusions in brain tumors, which could strongly support the relevance of innovative clinical trials with specific targeted therapies (larotectinib, entrectinib) in this patients's population.
