Abstract
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate tumor mutational burden (TMB), its associations with selected clinicopathological and molecular characteristics as well as its clinical significance, in a retrospective cohort of surgically resected stage I-II lung adenocarcinomas, subset of the ETOP Lungscape cohort.
TMB was evaluated on tumor DNA extracted from resected primary lung adenocarcinomas, based on FoundationOne®CDx (F1CDx) genomic profiling, centrally performed at the University Hospital Zurich. The F1CDx test sequences the complete exons of 324 cancer-related genes and detects substitutions, insertions and deletions (indels), copy number alterations and gene rearrangements. In addition, the genomic biomarkers TMB and microsatellite instability (MSI) are analyzed.
In the Lungscape cohort, TMB was assessed in 78 surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas from two Swiss centers (62 % males, 55 %/45 % stage I/II). Median TMB was 7.6 Muts/Mb, with TMB high (≥10 Muts/Mb) in 40 % of cases (95 %CI:29 %-52 %). The most frequently mutated genes were TP53/KRAS/EGFR/MLL2 detected in 58 %/38 %/33 %/30 % of samples, respectively. TMB was significantly higher among males (TMB high: 50 % vs 23 % in females, p = 0.032), as well as among current/former smokers (TMB high: 44 % vs 8 % in never smokers, p = 0.023). Furthermore, TMB was significantly higher in TP53 mutated than in non-mutated patients (TMB high: 60 % vs 12 %, p < 0.001), while it was higher in EGFR non-mutated patients compared to EGFR mutated (TMB high: 48 % vs 23 %, p = 0.049). At a median follow-up time of 56.1 months (IQR:38.8-72.0), none of the three outcome variables (OS, RFS, TTR) differed significantly by TMB status (all p-values > 5 %). This was also true when adjusting for clinicopathological characteristics.
While presence of TP53 mutations and absence of EGFR mutations are associated with high TMB, increased TMB had no significant prognostic impact in patients with resected stage I/II lung adenocarcinoma beyond T and N classification, in both unadjusted and adjusted analyses.
