OBJECTIVE: Immuno-oncology (IO) has rapidly evolved, with many IO therapies either approved or under investigation for multiple malignancies. Biomarkers exist that can predict response to IO therapies including PD-L1 expression, microsatellite instability (MSI), and total mutation burden (TMB). This paper serves to analyze the presence of these biomarkers across gynecologic cancers.
METHODS: A total of 16,300 gynecologic cancer specimens submitted for molecular profiling to Caris Life Sciences were reviewed. Immunohistochemistry was performed using the SP142 anti-PD-L1 clone and assessed for intensity. Next-generation sequencing, immunohistochemistry, and fragment analysis were used to determine MSI status. TMB was measured by counting all non-synonymous missense mutations found per tumor not previously described as germline alterations. Chi-Square, Fisher Exact, and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare cohorts.
RESULTS: Of 16,300 specimens, 54.1% were ovarian, 37.2% uterine, 7.2% cervical, 0.3% vulvar, 1.2% vaginal, with 0.1% unspecified. MSI-H was most frequent in uterine cancer (17.7%) and only 1% of ovarian cancers. PD-L1 expression was present in 38.3% of cervical and 62.5% of vulvar cancers, but less than 8% of ovarian and uterine cancers. TMB-H was present in 21.1% cervical, 19.7% uterine, and 5% ovarian cancers. Few specimens exhibited a "triple positive" phenotype - 0.3% ovarian, 1.5% uterine, and 1.5% cervical. Associations were seen between MSI, TMB, and PD-L1 across all cancer types.
CONCLUSIONS: The frequency of individual biomarkers pertinent to IO therapy varies by cancer type. HPV-driven genital tract cancers have higher frequencies of PD-L1 expression, MSI-H, and TMBH. Endometrial cancers are characterized by MSI-H and TMB, whereas ovarian cancers have a low frequency of MSI-H and modest PD-L1 or TMBH. The incidence of 'triple positive" cases was less than 2%.
