• A novel transcriptional signature identifies T-cell infiltration in high-risk paediatric cancer

  Background Molecular profiling of the tumour immune microenvironment (TIME) has enabled the rational choice of immunotherapies in some adult cancers. In contrast, the TIME of paediatric cancers is relatively unexplored. We speculated that a more refined appreciation of the TIME in childhood cancers, rather than a reliance on commonly used biomarkers such as tumour mutation burden (TMB), neoantigen load and PD-L1 expression, is an essential prerequisite for improved immunotherapies in childhood solid cancers. Methods We combined immunohistochemistry (IHC) with RNA-sequencing and whole genome sequencing across a diverse spectrum of high-risk paediatric cancers to develop an alternative, expression-based signature associated with CD8+ T-cell infiltration of the TIME. Further, we explored transcriptional features of immune archetypes, T-cell receptor sequencing diversity, assessed the relationship between CD8+ and CD4+ abundance by IHC and deconvolution predictions, and assessed common adult biomarkers such as neoantigen load and TMB. Results A novel 15-gene immune signature, Immune Paediatric Signature Score (IPASS), was identified. Using this signature, we estimate up to 31% of high-risk cancers harbour infiltrating T-cells. In addition, we showed that PD-L1 protein expression is poorly correlated with PD-L1 RNA expression and TMB and neoantigen load are not predictive of T-cell infiltration in paediatrics. Furthermore, deconvolution algorithms are only weakly correlated with IHC measurements of T-cells. Conclusions Our data provides new insights into the variable immune-suppressive mechanisms dampening responses in paediatric solid cancers. Effective immune-based interventions in high-risk paediatric cancer will require individualised analysis of the TIME.

• Clinical relevance of somatic copy-number alterations in plasma circulating tumor DNA from advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients treated with osimertinib

  Background: Somatic copy-number alterations (SCNAs) are associated with drug resistance in patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The purpose of our study was to assess the clinical relevance and development of genome-wide SCNAs in plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) under osimertinib therapy.Methods: We included 43 patients with advanced EGFR T790M-positive lung adenocarcinoma who were treated with osimertinib after progression under previous EGFR-TKI therapy. We performed genomic profiling of ctDNA in plasma samples from each patient obtained pre-osimertinib and after patients developed resistance to osimertinib. SCNAs were detected by shallow whole-genome plasma sequencing and EGFR mutations were assessed by droplet digital PCR.Results: SCNAs in resistance-related genes (rrSCNAs) were detected in 10 out of 39 (25.6%) evaluable patients before start of osimertinib. The presence of rrSCNAs in plasma before initiation of osimertinib therapy was associated with a lower response rate to osimertinib (50% versus 86%, p=0.02) and was an independent predictor for shorter progression-free survival (adjusted HR 3.26, 95% CI 1.37-7.75, p=0.008) and overall survival (adjusted HR 2.41, 95% CI 1.09-5.34, p=0.03).Conclusions: Genomic profiling of plasma ctDNA is clinically relevant and affects the efficacy and clinical outcome of osimertinib. Our approach allows comprehensive assessment of SCNAs in plasma samples of lung adenocarcinoma patients and may help to guide genotype-specific therapeutic strategies in the future.

• Implementation of pediatric precision oncology into clinical practice: The individualized Therapies for Children with cancer program “iTHER”

  iTHER is a prospective national precision oncology program aiming to define tumor molecular profiles in children and adolescents with primary very high-risk, relapsed, or refractory pediatric tumors in order to identify relevant aberrations to inform treatment. From April 2017 to April 2021, 302 samples of 253 patients were included. Comprehensive molecular profiling utilizing lcWGS, WES, RNAseq, Affymetrix, and/or 850k methylation profiling was performed for 226 samples. Germline pathogenic variants were identified in 16% of patients. At least one somatic alteration was detected in 204 (90.3%), and 185 (81.9%) were considered druggable, with priority levels very high (6.1%), high (21.3%), moderate (26.0%), intermediate (36.1%), and borderline (10.5%). Diagnosis was revised or refined in 8 patients (3.5%). Spatial and temporal heterogeneity was observed in paired samples of 15 patients, indicating the value of sequential analysis. Of 137 patients with follow-up beyond 12 months, 21 molecularly matched treatments were applied in 19 patients (13.9%) with modest response. Most relevant barriers to not applying targeted therapies included poor performance status, as well as limited access to drugs within clinical trial. iTHER demonstrates feasibility of comprehensive molecular profiling across all ages, tumor types and stages in pediatric cancers, informing of diagnostic, prognostic, and targetable alterations as well as reportable germline variants within a clinically relevant timeframe. Therefore, WES and RNAseq is implemented into standard clinical care at the Princess Máxima Center for all children. Improved access to targeted treatments within biology-driven combination trials is required to eventually improve survival.
