Аннотация

PURPOSE: Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) accounts for 2-5% of all cancer diagnoses, wherein standard investigations fail to reveal the original tumor site. Basket trials allocate targeted therapeutics based on actionable somatic mutations, independent of tumor entity. These trials, however, mostly rely on variants identified in tissue biopsies. Since liquid biopsies (LB) represent the overall tumor genomic landscape, they may provide an ideal diagnostic source in CUP patients. To identify the most informative liquid biopsy compartment, we compared the utility of genomic variant analysis for therapy stratification in two LB compartments (circulating cell-free (cf) and extracellular vesicle (ev) DNA).

METHODS: CfDNA and evDNA from 23 CUP patients were analyzed using a targeted gene panel covering 151 genes. Identified genetic variants were interpreted regarding diagnostic and therapeutic relevance using the MetaKB knowledgebase.

RESULTS: LB revealed a total of 22 somatic mutations in evDNA and/or cfDNA in 11/23 patients. Out of the 22 identified somatic variants, 14 are classified as Tier I druggable somatic variants. Comparison of variants identified in evDNA and cfDNA revealed an overlap of 58% of somatic variants in both LB compartments, whereas over 40% of variants were only found in one or the other compartment.

CONCLUSION: We observed substantial overlap between somatic variants identified in evDNA and cfDNA of CUP patients. Nonetheless, interrogation of both LB compartments can potentially increase the rate of druggable alterations, stressing the significance of liquid biopsies for possible primary-independent basket and umbrella trial inclusion.
