Does large NGS panel analysed using exome tumour sequencing improve the management of advanced non-small-cell lung cancers?
2020
Abstract Introduction Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common and deadly cancers. Several molecular drivers of oncogene addiction are now known to be strong predictive biomarkers for target therapies. Advances in large Next Generation Sequencing (LNGS) have improved the ability to detect potentially targetable mutations. However, the integration of LNGS into clinical management in an individualized manner remains challenging. Methods In this single-center observational study we included all patients with advanced NSCLC who underwent LNGS. Somatic and germline exome analysis was performed with a restriction on 323 cancer related genes. Variants were classified and Molecu…
Seroprevalence of SARs-CoV-2 among the staff and patients of a French cancer centre after first lockdown: the canSEROcov study
2021
Abstract Background In view of the potential gravity of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection for patients with cancer, epidemiological data are vital to assess virus circulation among patients and staff of cancer centres. We performed a prospective study to investigate seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies among staff and patients with cancer at a large cancer centre, at the end of the period of first national lockdown in France and to determine factors associated with the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Methods After the first lockdown, all medical and non-medical staff, as well as all patients attending the medical oncology department were invited to unde…
Exome Analysis Reveals Genomic Markers Associated with Better Efficacy of Nivolumab in Lung Cancer Patients
2019
Abstract Purpose: Immune checkpoint inhibitors revolutionized the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, only one-quarter of patients benefit from these new therapies. PD-L1 assessment and tumor mutational burden (TMB) are available tools to optimize use of checkpoint inhibitors but novel tools are needed. Exome sequencing could generate many variables but their role in identifying predictors of response is unknown. Experimental Design: We performed somatic and constitutional exome analyses for 77 patients with NSCLC treated with nivolumab. We studied: one-tumor-related characteristics: aneuploidy, CNA clonality, mutational signatures, TMB, mutations in WNT, AKT, MAPK, an…
