Thank the organizers and abstract selection cmte. I will move rather quickly through my slides but I’ll be happy to talk at my poster #10

Personalized Oncogenomics

• BC Cancer Agency – Cancer Care and Research • Provincial population-based cancer control program

– Prevention, Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment

• Scope: – POG aims to bridge divide between genomics research and

clinical practice – identify tumour-specific therapeutic targets in cancer

patients with late stage disease

Consult & Consent

Specimens: • Tumour Biopsy • Archival tumour • Peripheral blood

Libraries: • PCR-free genomes (T/N) • FFPE genome • Strand-specific RNA-seq

Presenter
Presentation Notes
The BCCA has a mandate to provide cancer care and research to the population of BC. 4.5M people living in an area twice the size of California. The Personalized Oncogenomics (POG) project is a collaboration between the GSC and clinicians aiming to identify tumour-specific therapy. Following consultation with the patient a biopsy is scheduled to obtain tumour tissue and peripheral blood. The diagnostic archival tissue block is also requested. Tumour and normal genome libraries and tumour transcriptome libraries are constructed for Illumina HiSeq sequencing. Following data analysis a report is provided to the referring clinician and discussed at a weekly meeting.

Presenter
Presentation Notes
To date 83 patients have been enrolled into the POG project and 69 biopsies performed. The bar chart depicts the frequency of the 28 different primary tumour types. On average we have sequenced fresh frozen tumour genomes to 93x coverage and 46x coverage for the normal and archival coverage. Transcriptomes are sequenced at 1 or two per HiSeq lane providing 306M reads on average. Reports are out for 50 of the cases with a TAT of 38 days. If asked, BRCA numbers may appear disproportionately high for two main reasons: We have 3 highly motivated breast cancer clinicians It is technically easier to obtain biopsies from breast than other sites.

How POG guides treatment decision making

1) Providing directed cytotoxic chemotherapy choices & targeted therapeutic options

2) Complemented/corrected clinical tests 3) Changed diagnosis 4) Identifying primary tumour sites when

previously unknown

5

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Areas in which POG has helped to guide treatment decision making include: The provision of directed cytotoxic chemotherapy choices and/or targeted therapeutic options The complementation or correction of approved clinical tests The change of a cancer diagnosis And the identification of primary tumour when previously ambiguous Time does not permit to provide examples for each of these areas but I will present case studies demonstrating the first two uses. Therapeutic utility (e.g. POG03) Limitations of existing clinical assays (e.g. POG30) Altered diagnoses (e.g. POG05) Tumour evolution (e.g. POG03)

“red rash” on chest Developed bleeding ulcerations Diagnosed with Squamous cell carcinoma

Three lines of chemotherapy and multiple rounds of radiotherapy started in 2007

• Jan 2012 – new preauricular node • Jun – Aug 2012 node and chest mass growing (pain and hearing loss) • Sep 2012, preauricular and chest lesions biopsied for POG

Presenter
Presentation Notes
The first of the case studies is a male patient presenting with bleeding ulcerations following a history of “red rash” on his chest for a few years but otherwise felt well. In 2007 he was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the skin and multiple rounds of chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment began. In Jan 2012 a new lesion near his right ear (preauricular node) developed and as the tumour grew hearing loss ensued. In Sep 2012, both preauricular and chest lesions were biopsied for POG.

Presentation Notes
Integrating genome and transcriptome data in pathway analysis highlights multiple pathway perturbations consistent with advanced stage disease and DNA repair defects. Including under-expression of PTEN and increased AKT1 expression. showed different drivers in these two tumours Based on the analysis of the in the chest tumor: PTEN homozygous loss and AKT gain and overexpression suggesting everolimus PARP1 is a protein that is important for repairing single-strand breaks ('nicks' in the DNA). If such nicks persist unrepaired until DNA is replicated (which must precede cell division), then the replication itself can cause double strand breaks to form.[7] http://www.nature.com.ezproxy.library.ubc.ca/nrd/journal/v10/n1/pdf/nrd3320.pdf GPCR pathway

Based on the analysis of the pre-auricular tumor: high-level amplification and over-expression of EGFR suggesting erlotinib

Therapeutic options, treatment and response

• Treatment: – High-level amplification and over-expression of EGFR

in the preauricular tumour suggested erlotinib – PTEN homozygous loss and AKT gain and over-

expression in the chest lesion suggested everolimus

• Response: – Dramatic reduction in the size and extent of his

tumours – Hearing returned to his right ear – Dramatically reduced use of pain medications – After a few months, the pre-auricular tumour

progressed, so we re-biopsied and sequenced this tumour

Presenter
Presentation Notes
December 2012 initiated erlotinib - within 3 weeks the preauricular tumour had completely involuted. Dramatically reduced use of pain medications (from 8 pills/day to 1 pill/night) However, the chest lesion did not respond. After 3 weeks everolimus was added to the treatment regimen and the chest mass flattened considerably. Sustained response for 9 months. Progression of the preauricular tumour has been re-biopsied.

Progressed preauricular

tumour • Further EGFR

amplification and over-expression observed – Higher copy number (55)

than in the 2012 biopsy (32)

– Highest expression level in all TCGA samples

After 9 months, the pre-auricular tumor progressed, so we re-biopsied and sequenced this tumour Further EGFR amplification and overexpression observed Higher copy number (55) than in the 2012 biopsy (32) And highest expression level observed in all TCGA data EGFR gene expression relative to TCGA tumour (yellow) and normal (green) datasets using RSEM

• For each patient, sequenced ≥3 genomes (normal, archival, tumour) and 1 transcriptome (tumour)

• 82 consented patients with advanced cancer - 74 biopsies attempted

- 3 biopsies failed, 2 patients withdrew consent

- Full data available for 50 patients - 9 in progress, 6 on hold, 4 patients died during analysis phase

- Clinically evaluated in 38 cases

• POG informative or actionable for treatment: 33/38 (87%) • Treatment available and offered: 18/33 (55%)

– ≥ 6 (18%) patients died during or shortly after analysis, precluding treatment

Evaluation of POG Results

Presenter
Presentation Notes
When the genomic data was felt to aid in diagnosis and/or identify treatment options it was labeled as "informative or actionable". This was determined for each patient's data by the clinician(s) looking after that specific patient. Limits are:�� 1.  the statement of informative and/or actionable is subjective and is a judgment made by the clinician(s) that are looking after the patient. Other clinicians might draw different conclusions.� 2.  there were some patients that we have done - 9 of them - that I wasn't able to track down the clinicians to ask their opinions on informative or actionable so I haven't counted these patients - obviously I need to track them down and fill this data in.� 3.  there are some patients whose data was cancelled (they died in the middle) or were put on hold - I didn't count them� 4.  there was one patient who we sequenced who didn't have enough tissue - but I counted that as a non-informative as opposed to omitting it� 5.  the data on what was actually acted on in part looks low because there are many reasons it wasn't acted on - some patients died or were too ill, other patients didn't need treatment yet, some patients didn't have treatments available to them�

Personalized Oncogenomics - Phase II • REB approval for 5,000 cases (in 5yrs) • Move from ~1 pt / week to >1 pt / day • Emphasis on genome + transcriptome sequencing • Include the “oncopanel” for a rapid TAT “first look” • Emphasis will expand beyond end stage patients • Increase speed and accuracy of sequence analysis &

report generation • Verifying “actionable” results in clinical lab. prior to

treatment
