• PRPH2-Related Retinal Dystrophies: Mutational Spectrum in 103 Families from a Spanish Cohort

  PRPH2, one of the most frequently inherited retinal dystrophy (IRD)-causing genes, implies a high phenotypic variability. This study aims to analyze the PRPH2 mutational spectrum in one of the largest cohorts worldwide, and to describe novel pathogenic variants and genotype-phenotype correlations. A study of 220 patients from 103 families recruited from a database of 5000 families. A molecular diagnosis was performed using classical molecular approaches and next-generation sequencing. Common haplotypes were ascertained by analyzing single-nucleotide polymorphisms. We identified 56 variants, including 11 novel variants. Most of them were missense variants (64%) and were located in the D2-loop protein domain (77%). The most frequently occurring variants were p.Gly167Ser, p.Gly208Asp and p.Pro221_Cys222del. Haplotype analysis revealed a shared region in families carrying p.Leu41Pro or p.Pro221_Cys222del. Patients with retinitis pigmentosa presented an earlier disease onset. We describe the largest cohort of IRD families associated with PRPH2 from a single center. Most variants were located in the D2-loop domain, highlighting its importance in interacting with other proteins. Our work suggests a likely founder effect for the variants p.Leu41Pro and p.Pro221_Cys222del in our Spanish cohort. Phenotypes with a primary rod alteration presented more severe affectation. Finally, the high phenotypic variability in PRPH2 hinders the possibility of drawing genotype-phenotype correlations.

• Whole exome sequencing of pre-invasive lung adenocarcinoma in non-smokers

  The prevalence of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has increased sharply in East Asia. Early diagnosis leads to better survival rates, but this requires an improved understanding of the molecular changes during early tumorigenesis, particularly in non-smokers. We performed whole exome-sequencing and RNA-sequencing for samples from 94 East Asian patients with precancerous lesions (25 with atypical adenomatous hyperplasia [AAH]; 69 with adenocarcinoma in situ [AIS]) and 73 patients with early invasive lesions (minimally invasive adenocarcinoma [MIA]). Cellular analysis revealed that the activities of endothelial and stromal cells could categorize tumors into molecular subtypes within pathology-defined lesion types. These subtypes were linked with the advanced radiology-defined lesion type and coordinated with immune cell infiltration throughout the progression of LUAD. Characterization of these lesion types identified positively selected mutation patterns, and suggested that angiogenesis of the late-stage AIS type potentially contributes to tissue invasion of the MIA type. Our findings offer a novel resource that may help to improve early diagnosis and patient prognosis, and also suggest possible approaches for early disease interception.

• Understanding Rare Variant Contributions to autism: Lessons from Dystrofin-Deficient Model

  This project generated a whole-exome sequencing (WES) dataset of 83 boys with a pathogenic variant in the DMD gene, along with WES data from the parents of 38 of them, totaling 159 samples. Pathogenic DMD variants, besides causing dystrophinopathies, are also known risk factors for neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). However, the low penetrance of NDDs in individuals with dystrophinopathies suggests that additional factors contribute to their manifestation. This study aimed to: (1) characterize ASD in males with dystrophinopathies; (2) determine the relevance of additional de novo and inherited rare risk variants for their neurodevelopmental phenotype; and (3) clinically and functionally characterize the identified risk variants.

• Genomic analysis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma upon acquired resistance to cetuximab

  Anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) monoclonal antibodies (cetuximab) remain the only FDA-approved targeted therapy for patients with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Unfortunately, most patients develop acquired resistance to cetuximab and there is currently no further therapeutic option for these patients (unmet clinical need), thereby highlighting the need to better understand resistance-causing mechanisms. Here, we carried out whole-exome sequencing on 2 cetuximab-sensitive and -resistant patient-derived xenograft models of HNSCC. Our data reveal several genetic alterations (mutations and copy number variations) associated with acquired resistance to anti-EGFR therapy.

• The phase II Neo-Pembro trial: neoadjuvant pembrolizumab in stage IV high-grade serous ovarian cancer

  While immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized cancer treatment, their efficacy in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) remains limited. Nevertheless, some patients achieve lasting responses, emphasizing the need to understand how the tumor microenvironment and molecular characteristics influence ICI response. We hypothesized higher efficacy of ICI when used in the neoadjuvant setting and preceded by induction chemotherapy. The phase 2 Neo-Pembro study (NCT03126812) included 33 untreated patients with stage IV HGSOC who were planned for 6 cycles of carboplatin-paclitaxel and interval cytoreductive surgery. Pembrolizumab (pembro) was added from cycle two and continued for one year. The primary objective was to assess intratumoral immune activation, through multiplexed immunofluorescence and immune-related gene expression. Our data provide evidence of immune activation, characterized by an increase in CD3+, CD8+, CD8+/FOXP3+ ratio, and TNF-α and interferon-γ signaling, and was most evident in major pathologic responders, which were 9/33 patients (27%, 95%CI 14-46) at time of surgery. Pathologic response was strongly associated with overall survival. At a median follow-up of 52.8 months, 8/9 major responders were alive, including 6 patients without recurrence, and 4 of 24 minor responders were alive, including one patient without recurrence. PD-L1 expression and homologous recombination deficiency were predictive of major response and may serve as potential biomarkers, warranting further exploration. In a post-hoc comparison, major responders treated with pembro had significantly better overall survival than major responders in a historic cohort treated without pembro. Our data indicate that immune activation was stronger in the subset of major pathologic responders and these patients may derive long-term survival benefits from the addition of neoadjuvant pembro.

• Surgery in combination with immune checkpoint therapy as an effective treatment for patients with metastatic cancer.

  Abstract Surgical removal of primary tumors was shown to reverse tumor-mediated immune suppression in pre-clinical models with metastatic disease. However, how cytoreductive surgery in the metastatic setting modulates the immune responses in patients, especially in the context of immune checkpoint therapy (ICT)-containing treatments is not understood. Here, we report the first prospective, non-comparative clinical trial (N=104) using three different ICT-containing strategies plus cytoreductive or “debulking” surgery to remove the primary tumor-bearing kidney or a metastatic lesion as a treatment for patients (N=43) with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (mccRCC). For those patients (N=61) who were not candidates for cytoreductive surgery, a biopsy was obtained instead for correlative biological studies. Our data demonstrated that the combination of ICT with cytoreductive surgery was safe and feasible in patients with mccRCC. The 2-year overall survival was 84% with a median OS of 54.7 months for patients who received ICT containing regimens plus surgery. Immune-monitoring studies with co-detection by indexing (CODEX) identified distinct tumor spatial conformation of cellular subsets as a novel and improved predictor of response to ICT. Importantly, single-cell RNA-sequencing data demonstrated that surgical removal of the tumor increased antigen-presenting dendritic cell population with a concurrent reduction in KDM6B expressing immune-suppressive myeloid cells in the peripheral blood. Together, this study highlighted the feasibility of combining ICT with cytoreductive surgery in a metastatic setting and demonstrated potential enhancement of immune responses following ICT plus cytoreductive surgery in patients with metastatic disease.

• Analysis of CD20 loss in patients treated with Mosunetuzumab

  CD20 is an established therapeutic target in B-cell malignancies. The CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody mosunetuzumab has significant efficacy in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). Since target antigen loss is a recognized mechanism of resistance, we evaluated the contribution of CD20 expression to clinical response in patients with relapsed and/or refractory NHL in the phase 1/2 GO29781 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02500407) investigating mosunetuzumab monotherapy. CD20 was studied using immunohistochemistry (IHC), RNA sequencing, and whole-exome sequencing performed centrally in biopsies collected prior to treatment, or as paired samples at pre-dose and on-treatment, or at-progression. Prior to treatment, most patients exhibited a high proportion of tumor cells expressing CD20; however, the proportion of CD20+ tumor cells in 14/293 (6%) patients was <10%. Analyses of paired biopsies from patients during treatment revealed that CD20 levels were maintained in 29/30 (97%), vs patients with samples at-progression, in which 11/32 (34%) showed CD20 loss. Reduced transcription or acquisition of truncating mutations explained most but not all cases of CD20 loss. In vitro modeling confirmed the effect of CD20 variants identified in clinical samples on reduction of CD20 expression and confirmed missense mutations in the extracellular domain that could block mosunetuzumab binding. This study expands knowledge about the occurrence of target antigen loss after anti-CD20 therapeutics to CD20-targeting bispecific antibodies and elucidates the underlying mechanisms for reduced CD20 expression at disease progression that may be generalizable to other anti-CD20 targeting agents. These results also establish the utility of readily-available IHC staining for CD20 as a tool to inform clinical decisions.

• Whole-exome sequencing profiling of patients with metastatic prostate cancer at VHIO

  Metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) is enriched for homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations, which have prognostic and predictive value. Routine clinical implementation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) is still limited. We investigated the association between genomic and functional loss of HRR, using NGS and a RAD51 immunofluorescence (RAD51-IF) iprimary or metastatic biopsies from patients with stage IV prostate cancer. Whole-exome sequencing was pursued for paired tumor-normal samples.

• WES samples of patients with anti-PD-1 resistant HNSCC from a non-randomized, open-label phase 1b clinical trial

  Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is an effective treatment for a subset of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC); however, the majority remain refractory. In a nonrandomized, open-label Phase 1b clinical trial, participants with recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) HNSCC who had progressed on ICB were treated with low-dose 5-azacytidine (5-aza) daily for either 5 or 10 days, in combination with durvalumab and tremelimumab. The primary objective was to determine the biologically effective dose of 5-aza. In this study, whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed on baseline samples from 12 participants, and genomic alterations were analyzed to access the genetic background of these participants.

• Neoadjuvant immune checkpoint blockade in mismatch-repair proficient colon cancers

  Immune checkpoint blockade has led to paradigm shifts in the treatment of various tumour types, yet limited efficacy has been observed in patients with metastatic mismatch-repair proficient (pMMR) colorectal cancer. Here we report an in-depth analysis of patients with early-stage pMMR colon cancer from the phase II NICHE study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03026140). A total of 31 patients received neoadjuvant treatment of nivolumab plus ipilimumab followed by surgery. The response rate was 26% and included six patients with a major pathological response (≤10% residual viable tumour). One patient with an ongoing clinical complete response did not undergo surgery. Responses were observed despite a low tumour mutational burden in all tumours, while chromosomal genomic instability scores were significantly higher in responders compared to non-responders. Responding tumours were more likely to be TP53 mutant, KRASG12 wildtype and had significantly higher baseline expression of proliferation signatures and TCF1. Imaging mass cytometry also revealed a higher percentage of Ki-67+ cancer and Ki-67+ CD8+ T cells in responders compared to non-responders. Meanwhile, in non-responders, we observed an enrichment for an inflamed-fibrotic microenvironment associated with TGF-β expression, hinting towards possible resistance mechanisms. These results provide a comprehensive analysis of response to neoadjuvant ICB in early-stage pMMR colon cancers and identify potential biomarkers for patient selection.
