InSiGHT’s history • In 1985 polyposis experts (Dukes, Bussey, Morton et al … ) met at Leeds Castle, Kent, UK. In 1989 the Leeds Castle Polyposis Group (LCPG) was formally established. • The International Collaborative Group on Hereditary Non Polyposis Colorectal Cancer (ICG-HNPCC) was conceived in Jerusalem, in 1989. • In 1990 the first formal meeting of the ICG-HNPCC was organized in Amsterdam. • In 1997 the first joint meeting of LCPG and ICG-HNPCC took place in Noordwijk. • At the meeting in Venice in 2001 it was agreed that the ICG-HNPCC should formally merge with the LCPG to form a new society. • InSiGHT’s journal is Familial Cancer • www.insight-group.org • Members include physicians, geneticists, surgeons, pathologists, scientists, counsellors etc • It co-ordinates Registries on an International basis
Pre-meeting • UVs • Feedback from Sian Tavtigian post-Lyon Feb 09 • Adding phenotype to InSiGHT mutation database • Functional assays • Worldwide collaborative project on UVs • International interpretation panel • Feb 2013 InSiGHT meeting in Melbourne will be linked to HVP • Nature Genetics paper of all 10,000 MMR mutations
Phenotype • No phenotype • FHx +/- • AC +/- • Summary FH based on Barnetson & Chao • Pedigree (for segregation)
Algorithms • Family mutation probability: Wijnen • Individual mutation probability: Barnetson R et al NEJM 2006; 354:2751-63. • [See also thePREMM1,2,6 model] • Developed from a population <55y and validated on a population <45y. ?performance >55 • https://hnpccpredict.hgu.mrc.ac.uk • Pr/(1-Pr) = 1.39 x 0.89Age x 2.57Gender x 4.45Location x 9.53Sync/Met x 46.26CRCFH(<50) x 7.04CRCFH(=>50) x 59.36ECFH • Stage 1 and Stage 2 * Age is expressed in years at time of diagnosis * Gender is 1 = male, 0 = female * Location is 1 = proximal, 0 = distal tumours (Proximal colon = any of the following sites Splenic flexure, Transverse colon, Ascending colon/hepatic flexure, Caecum, Appendix) * Synchronous and/or metachronous tumours are: Sync/MetTumour = 1 and no Sync/MetTumour = 0; * There are three possible colorectal cancer family history categories CRCFH(<50) and CRCFH(>=50): 1 and 0 if the youngest affected first degree relative was aged <50yrs 0 and 1 if the youngest affected first degree relative was aged >=50yrs 0 and 0 if there were no affected first degree relatives; * Family history of endometrial cancer: ECFH = 1 if there are any first degree relatives with endometrial cancer ECFH = 0 if none.
InSiGHT summary FH phenotype dataset • As these phenotype parameters are used to assess mutation probability, they can be used to inform the Bayesian probability of risk for any unclassified variant. Hence: • Stage 1 • Age, gender, location, sync/met, FH, ECFH • Stage 2 • IHC • MSI • Stage 3 • Additional family data: e.g. # affecteds • Co-segregation
UVs likelihood ratios • Five classes • 5: >0.99 • 4: 0.95-0.99 • 3: 0.05-0.95 • 2: 0.001-0.05 • 1: <0.001 • Need to quantitate “natural variation” in results • HGVS @ UNESCO HQ, Paris, Jan [May] 2010
Functional assays • (IHC) • Robert Hofstra, Leiden • Couch FJ Hum Mutation 29:1314-26 • Assymetrical F-tagged PCR construct with an engineered mismatch • In vitro expression of MSH2 etc • Add to –MSH2 brew • Relative heights of cut/uncut peaks gives measure of in vitro activity • Quick, cheap, simple, easy …
PMS2 & BRAF status • Abnormal PMS2 expression alone in tumours • Strong indicator of PMS2 mutations • MLH1 + PMS2 absent … but weak MLH1 on re-testing ! • iQC & EQA • Others find (uninterpretable) complex combinations of IHC abnormality • Tumours with BRAF V600E in PMS2 families • Probably sporadic • Due to ascertainment bias consequent upon clinical referral criteria • PMS2 carriers ascertained secondary to homoz children have v little if any FH
Genome-Wide Association Studies • Houlston, Dunlop, Tomlinson, Gallinger, Peters et al • 10 SNPs = 6% of FCRC risk • Nature Genetics 40:1426-35 • [100 SNPs = 80%] • [172 SNPs = 100%] • Issues: • Population heterogeneity • Rare private variants • Incomplete SNP capture • Copy Number Variants need studying • Gene-Environment and GxG interactions • Deep re-sequencing needed, to find private variants % of FCRC risk SNPs (n)
Genome-Wide Association Studies • LS Modifiers (Houlston) • CycD1 G242A MSH2, but not MLH1 • MTHFR • C677T & age of onset – iffy • A1298C – iffy • but compound hets 15 y younger • IGF1(dinuc) <18rpts = younger onset & age of onset α 1/rpt • RNASEL R462Q • HFE (?) • … 4 others

MSI tumour immunology • Tumour infiltrating lymphocytes . in tumours with MSI • Novel antigens in MSI tumours due to coding microsatellite (MS) mutations
MSI tumour immunology • T cell Immune responses • FrameShiftPolypeptide-specific T cells are present but tumours grow • FSP-specific T cells are present in LS patients, without tumours … • Patients are probably being immunised by tumours which never present clinically • Humoural IR • Highest after resection or adv tumours • Low level ab in healthy LS pts • Immune evasion: • HLA Class I expression is lost because of beta2M/HLA A2 – coding MS muts • Known for a long time • New finding: • HLA Class II is lost through CIITA 1962_1963insC , RFX5 56delC, RFXANK, RFXAP muts
MLH1 epimutations, Megan Hitchins • MLH1 epimutation segregates in a 3 gen fam • Soma-wide, allele specific, mosaic • T allele methylated • Loss of T allele in mRNA • + loss of C allele in tumour • 3 affecteds and 5 unaffecteds had soma methylation (14-49%) • AD transmission • Father’s sperm demethylated • Son has soma methylation • So, now reversible non-Mendelian & Mendelian MLH1 epimutation • ?distinct mechanisms

HFE and CRCa risk, Scott • HFE C282Y and H63D • x3 CRCa risk • H63D HR 2.93 (1.3 – 6.4) p 0.007 • If H63D homoz then ~6y earlier onset • Shiu et al Int J Ca 125:78-83 • However: • HFE is within HLA on chr 6, so is this an association with HLA and not HFE per se … • Another group reported an association with C282Y but not H63D, so could well be either a ‘spoof’ association or very population specific, implying HLA not HFE.
LS Modifiers, Wijnen • 14 SNPs associated with CRCa • Are they associated with LS risks? • On testing Leiden’s mega set of LS families: • All M F • 8q23.3 (x2) x3 rs16982766 C allele • (related to MYC) • 11q23.1 x3 rs3802842 • 4q13.1 x2 rs4355419 • >3 risk alleles increase risks further • ?warrants more intensive surveillance
