Comprehensive Genomic Profiling (Cgp) In Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Germ Cell Tumors (Gct).

388 Background: Understanding the genetic alterations in patients with relapsed/refractory GCT (rrGCT) could delineate the pathogenesis of cisplatin resistance. Our study uses CGP to characterize genomic alterations (GA) in refractory GCT and correlate with clinical outcomes. Methods: 432 patients with rrGCT were seen at Indiana University between Jan 2016 to Sep 2019 of whom 52 patients underwent CGP using a hybrid-capture based commercial assay to evaluate all classes of GA. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) was determined on 1.1 Mbp of sequenced DNA and reported as mutations/Mb and microsatellite instability (MSI) was determined on 114 loci. PDL1 expression was determined by IHC (DAKO 22C3 antibody). Results: All patients relapsed after first-line cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy. Median age at diagnosis was 33 (range 15-68). Primary site of GCT was testicular in 85% and mediastinum in 8%. 6 patients had pure seminoma and 46 had non-seminoma. Platinum refractory disease, defined as serologic or radiographic progression within 4 weeks of first-line chemotherapy comprised 23% of patients. The primary tumor was used for sequencing in 6 cases (12%) and non-primary tumor metastatic site (lymph node, lung, liver, brain, omentum) in 46 cases (88%). The most common GA in the entire cohort were FGF6 (27%), FGF23 (27%), KDM5A (27%), CCND2 (27%), KRAS (18%), TP53 (14%), KIT (8%), APC (8%), ZNF217 (6%), MUTYH (6%), AURKA (6%), NRAS (6%), EGFR (6%), CTNNB1 (6%), GNAS (6%). Most common alterations for testicular primary tumors were FGF6, FGF23, KDM5A, CCND2, KRAS, TP53, KIT. For non-testicular primary GCT, most common GA were APC, TP53, EGFR. Most common GA for non-seminoma were FGF6, FGF23, KDM5A, CCND2, KRAS, TP53, APC. Most common GA for pure seminoma was KIT. Potentially targetable genomic alterations were found in 17 patients (33%). 10 of 17 patients (59%) tested had PDL1 score ≥1% and 3 patients had PDL1 ≥50%. Median TMB was 3.5 mutations/MB. There were 4 patients (8%) with TMB ≥ 10 mutations/Mb and 2 patients (4%) with TMB ≥ 20 mutations/Mb. 1 of 48 patients (2%) evaluated for MSI had MSI-High status. Isochromosome 12p was detected in the majority of samples where it was tested. Outcomes with GA-directed therapy will be presented at the conference. Conclusions: CGP can reveal potential therapeutic targets in patients with rrGCT including EGFR, ERBB3, KIT, and MET. Consistent with reported clinical trials in rrGCT, biomarkers predicting response to immune checkpoint blockade are uncommon with most patients having low TMB, absence of MSI-H status, and low expression of PDL1.
