Purpose: The absolute benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in stage II CRC is only 3–4%. The identification of biomarkers through molecular profiling could identify patients who will more benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients and Methods: This retrospective analysis examined tissue blocks from 17 patients affected by relapsed stage II CRC, whose comprehensive genomic profiling of tumors was conducted through next-generation sequencing (NGS) via Roche-FoundationOne®. Results: Mutations were found in APC (76.5%), TP53 (58.8%) and KRAS (52.9%). Only KRAS wild-type samples showed FBXW7. APC frameshift mutations and MLH1 splice variant were conversely significant correlated (7% v 93%, P = 0.014). The median number of gene mutations reported was 6 (range 2–14). The TP53 mutation was associated most frequently with lung metastasis (P = 0.07) and high tumor budding (P = 0.03). Despite no statistical significance, lung recurrence, LVI/Pni, MSI and more than 6 genetic mutations were correlated to worse DFS and OS. Patients carried co-mutations of TP53-FBXW7 reported the worse DFS (4 v 14 months) and OS (4 v 65 months) compared to the other patients. Conclusion: According to the present analysis, the setting of relapsed CRC emerges as one of the fields of greatest utility for NGS, looking at personalized cancer care.

Abstract

Purpose: The absolute benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy in stage II CRC is only 3–4%. The identification of biomarkers through molecular profiling could identify patients who will more benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients and Methods: This retrospective analysis examined tissue blocks from 17 patients affected by relapsed stage II CRC, whose comprehensive genomic profiling of tumors was conducted through next-generation sequencing (NGS) via Roche-FoundationOne®. Results: Mutations were found in APC (76.5%), TP53 (58.8%) and KRAS (52.9%). Only KRAS wild-type samples showed FBXW7. APC frameshift mutations and MLH1 splice variant were conversely significant correlated (7% v 93%, P = 0.014). The median number of gene mutations reported was 6 (range 2–14). The TP53 mutation was associated most frequently with lung metastasis (P = 0.07) and high tumor budding (P = 0.03). Despite no statistical significance, lung recurrence, LVI/Pni, MSI and more than 6 genetic mutations were correlated to worse DFS and OS. Patients carried co-mutations of TP53-FBXW7 reported the worse DFS (4 v 14 months) and OS (4 v 65 months) compared to the other patients. Conclusion: According to the present analysis, the setting of relapsed CRC emerges as one of the fields of greatest utility for NGS, looking at personalized cancer care.
