Abstract 3890: Sequencing of 888 pediatric solid tumors informs precision oncology trial design and data sharing initiatives in pediatric cancer

Abstract Pediatric pan-cancer genome analyses do not capture the full range of diagnoses encountered in clinical practice. To inform basket trial design and real-world precision oncology practice, we classified diagnoses and assessed the landscape of mutations, including trial-matching, in an unselected cohort of pediatric solid tumors. Since 2013 all Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s patients have been offered participation in the Profile study. Participant tumor samples were sequenced with DFCI-OncoPanel, a targeted panel test sequencing exons of up to 447 cancer genes for single nucleotide variants, insertions and deletions and copy number alterations, and introns and exons of up to 60 genes for rearrangements. Patient diagnosis was classified according to ICD-O, version 3.2. Genomic alterations were analyzed for matching to the actionable mutation lists of precision oncology basket trials (NCI-COG Pediatric MATCH, NCI-MATCH, and the ASCO TAPUR Study v.3). Data will be shared with the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative. There were 888 pediatric patients with sequencing enrolled in Profile between January 2013 and March 2019; 512 (58%) with solid tumors and 376 (42%) with CNS tumors. Fifty-five percent (491/888) of patients had one of ten common pediatric cancer diagnoses: neuroblastoma (n=80), low-grade glioma (n=72), Wilms tumor (n=57), medulloblastoma (n=55), pilocytic astrocytoma (n=47), rhabdomyosarcoma (n=44), osteosarcoma (n=42), ependymoma (n=39), Ewing sarcoma (n=28) and glioblastoma (n=27). The remaining 45% (397/888) had one of 85 distinct rare malignancies with less than 25 cases per diagnosis. Most (80/85) of these rare diagnoses are not represented in prior pediatric pan-cancer sequencing studies. Recurrent (>5%) pathogenic alterations were, in common and rare diagnoses, TP53 mutations(m) and deletions(del) and BRAFm and rearrangements(r), in common diagnoses, MYC/MYCN amplification (amp) and EWSR1r and, in rare diagnoses, CTNNB1m, CDKN2A/Bdel and NF1m/del. We found that 31% (n=271/888) of patients had at least 1 variant matching a basket trial treatment arm. Genes with matching alterations include BRAF (10%), NF1 (4%), PI3KCA (3%), NRAS (2%), BRCA2 (2%), ALK (1%), and FGFR1 (1%). Sequencing of pediatric malignancies is increasing. This study highlights opportunities to use the resulting genomic data to inform genome-selected clinical trial design and uncover drivers in pediatric cancers. The proportion of cases in this cohort with genomic alterations meeting eligibility for basket trials is equivalent to that seen in the pediatric MATCH screening study. Due to the low prevalence of the diagnoses in the long tail of cancer types in this study, defining the genomic landscape of ultra-rare cancers will require data sharing. Classifying pediatric cancer diagnoses using the ICD-O standard ontology system is feasible and will facilitate data sharing. Citation Format: Suzanne J.
