BACKGROUND: Mutated circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has been suggested as a surrogate marker of tumour burden and aggressiveness of disease. We examined the association between the level of plasma mutant cfDNA and metabolic tumour burden (MTB) measured by 18F-fluoro-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT). Furthermore, the presence of mutant cfDNA was correlated with patient survival.
METHODS: Forty-six advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients were included. At the time of inclusion, blood sampling and a PET/CT scan were performed. cfDNA was isolated and next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed (Ion AmpliSeq Colon and Lung Cancer panel v2). MTB was defined by a volumetric PET parameter.
RESULTS: NGS succeeded in 41 patients. Mutations were detected in the blood of 24 patients. A significant correlation between the allele frequency of the most frequent mutation and MTB was found (P=0.001). Patients with detectable mutated cfDNA had a significantly shorter median overall survival compared with patients without (3.7 versus 10.6 months, P=0.019). This impact on survival was independent of the MTB.
CONCLUSIONS: Level of mutated cfDNA tends to correlate with MTB in advanced-stage NSCLC patients. Patients with detectable mutant DNA in plasma had an inferior survival, indicating that this could be an important predictor of survival.
