RESUMEN
BACKGROUND/AIM: Multi-cancer genome profiling (multi-CGP) testing intends to predict the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer medication treatments for eligible patients as part of "precision cancer care." The number of cases in which a new treatment was applied based on multi-CGP testing has been reported to be between 10% and 20% for all patients in Japan. This study aimed to determine the significance of multi-CGP testing in Japan by analyzing clinical data from multi-CGP testing in various solid cancers at our Hospital. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 230 patients examined by one of three tests for multi-CGP including NCC Oncopanel, FoundationOne CDx, and FoundationOne Liquid were retrospectively enrolled. Adequate treatment for each patient was discussed at the expert panel meeting according to the results from the genome profiling tests. RESULTS: The most frequent cancer types enrolled in this study were pancreas cancer, bowel cancer, and biliary cancer. Of the 230 cases, 106 (46%) were druggable cases, and 21 (9.1%) were administered medication. Partial response (PR) effect was found in 7 (33.3%) of the 21 cases, of which 3 were biliary cancer and 3 had a BRCA2 mutation. Of all the 21 cases, 7 (33.3%) had the maximum treatment benefit of PR. Three cases of biliary tumors were found in the 7 PR cases within the 21 cases. CONCLUSION: Of 230 patients, 21 were administered medication following multi-CGP testing data, especially frequent in biliary tumor patients. Multi-CGP testing might be particularly beneficial to patients with biliary tumors in Japan.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) has the highest morbidity rate and the second-highest mortality rate of all cancers among women. Recently, multi-cancer genome profiling (multi-CGP) tests have become clinically available. In this study, we aimed to clarify the significance of multi-CGP testing of BC by using the large clinical dataset from The Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT) profiling database in Japan. Materials and Methods: A total of 3744 BC cases were extracted from the C-CAT database, which enrolled 60,250 patients between June 2019 and October 2023. Of the 3744 BC cases, a total of 3326 cases for which the C-CAT included information on ER, PR, and HER2 status were classified into four subtypes, including TNBC, HR+/HER2-, HR+/HER2+, and HR-/HER2+. Comparisons between groups were performed by the χ2 test or Fisher's exact test using EZR. Kaplan-Meier curves were created using the log-rank test. Results: Of all 3326 cases analyzed, 1114 (33.5%) were TNBC cases, HR+/HER2- accounted for 1787 cases (53.7%), HR+/HER2+ for 260 cases (7.8%), and HR-/HER2+ for 165 cases (5.0%). Genetic abnormalities were most frequently detected in TP53 (58.0%), PIK3CA (35.5%), MYC (18.7%), FGF19 (15.5%), and GATA3 (15.1%) across all BCs. The rate of TMB-High was 12.3%, and the rate of MSI-High was 0.3%, in all BC cases. Therapeutic drugs were proposed for patients with mutations in six genes: PIK3CA, ERBB2, PTEN, FGFR1, ESR1, and AKT1. The prognoses of HR+/HER2- cases were significantly (p = 0.044) better in the treated group than in the untreated group. Conclusions: These findings suggest that cancer gene panel testing is useful for HR+/HER2- cases.
