Clinical Application of Next Generation Sequencing for Personalized Medicine in Solid TumorsPresented by: Ryan Bender, PhD FACMG
Evolution of Knowledge in NSCLC • Traditionally, non-small-cell lung cancers have been classified according to histological features. • Various driver mutations have been associated with these cancers over time. • The mutations are mutually exclusive, except for those in PIK3CA. • Mutations associated with drug sensitivityEGFR Gly719X, exon 19 deletion, Leu858Arg, Leu861Gln • Mutations associated with primary drug resistanceEGFR exon 20 insertions • Mutations associated with acquired drug resistanceEGFR Thr790Met, Asp761Tyr, Leu747Ser, Thr854Ala New driver mutations in non-small-cell lung cancer William Pao, Nicolas Girard, Lancet Oncol 2011; 12: 175–80
Next-Generation Sequencing Greater volume of clinically-actionable information • Additional markers analyzed • Pathways more fully interrogated • Clinical trials opportunities expanded Additional service and reporting options • Expanded NGS panel for Select and Comprehensive profiles • 45 gene pan-tumor NGS panel Enhanced specimen-friendly requirements • Smaller specimens accepted (8-10 unstained, unbaked, positively charged slides) • FFPEor Formalin samples accepted
IlluminaMiSeqTruSeqAmplicon Cancer Hotspot Panel Validation • Used 80 FFPE samples (70 FFPE tissue samples, 6 cell lines and 4 HapMap samples) • >98% accuracy when compared to Sanger. • One discordant result stemming from misalignment of A502_Y503dup mutation in KIT (Using Pindel and validating bioinformatics solution) • >97% precision for inter-operator, inter-lot and inter-machine tests (Most sources of discordance involved indeterminate results) • Linear and reliable variant detection down to 5% • All reported mutations have >99% confidence at a sensitivity of 10%
Anti-EGFR Monoclonal Antibodies • Cetuximab (Erbitux) • Manufactured and marketed by ImClone and Bristol-Myers Squibb (~$30,000/ 8 week cycle) • Approved in 2006 for treatment of squamous cell carcinomas of the head and neck • Panitumamab (Vectibix) • Manufactured by Amgen (~$100,000/year) • Approved for treatment of colorectal cancer in 2006 • 2009 – Discovered KRAS mutations are negative indicators of response to EGFR mabs in colorectal cancer

Roche cobas BRAF Mutation Assay • FDA approved companion diagnostic for Zelboraf use • Specific to the p.V600E mutation • Can pick up other mutations – p.V600K, p.V600D, p.V600E(2), V600_K601delinsD • Does not detect p.V600R
BRAF Mutation Analysis • Sequencing • V600E • Other V600 mutations • Exon 15 insertions/deletions (V600_K601delinsE/D) • L597 and K601 mutations • Exon 11 mutations • FDA Approved Method – BRAF cobas 4800 V600 mutation test • PCR based • FDA approved companion diagnostic for Zelboraf and Debrafenib
Case #1 • 64 y/o patient presenting with growth on spinal cord • Biopsy reveal heavily pigmented nodule positive for MART-1, HMB-45 and MITF • Malignant melanoma with unknown primary favored as Dx • Sample tested for standard melanoma markers • NGS performed with a request to report BRAF and KIT mutation status • GNA11 Q209L mutation detected
Conclusions • NGS sequencing is a high throughput method for interrogation of the mutation status of a large number of biomarkers • Pathway analysis is expensive and laborious by previous methods – becoming standard of care for cancer therapy • NGS adds additional information that some companion diagnostics do not provide • Potential benefit of incidental findings to clarify diagnosis or detect rare finding
