RESUMO

PURPOSE: Germline mutations in CHEK2 gene represent the second most frequent cause of hereditary breast cancer (BC) after BRCA1/2 lesions. This study aimed to identify the molecular characteristics of CHEK2-driven BCs. METHODS: Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for the remaining CHEK2 allele was examined in 50 CHEK2-driven BCs using allele-specific PCR assays for the germline mutations and analysis of surrounding single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Paired tumor and normal DNA samples from 25 cases were subjected to next-generation sequencing analysis. RESULTS: CHEK2 LOH was detected in 28/50 (56%) BCs. LOH involved the wild-type allele in 24 BCs, mutant CHEK2 copy was deleted in 3 carcinomas, while in one case the origin of the deleted allele could not be identified. Somatic PIK3CA and TP53 mutations were present in 13/25 (52%) and 4/25 (16%) tumors, respectively. Genomic features of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), including the HRD score ≥ 42, the predominance of BRCA-related mutational signature 3, and the high proportion of long (≥ 5 bp) indels, were observed only in 1/20 (5%) BC analyzed for chromosomal instability. Tumors with the deleted wild-type CHEK2 allele differed from LOH-negative cases by elevated HRD scores (median 23 vs. 7, p = 0.010) and higher numbers of chromosomal segments affected by copy number aberrations (p = 0.008). CONCLUSION: Somatic loss of the wild-type CHEK2 allele is observed in approximately half of CHEK2-driven BCs. Tumors without CHEK2 LOH are chromosomally stable. BCs with LOH demonstrate some signs of chromosomal instability; however, its degree is significantly lower as compared to BRCA1/2-associated cancers.

RESUMO

PALB2 is а high-penetrance gene for hereditary breast cancer (BC). Our study aimed to investigate the spectrum of PALB2 mutations in Russian cancer patients. PALB2 sequencing revealed pathogenic variants in 3/190 (1.6%) young-onset and/or familial and/or bilateral BC cases but none in 96 ovarian cancer (OC) or 172 pancreatic cancer patients. Subsequently, seven recurrent PALB2 pathogenic alleles were selected from this and previous Slavic studies and tested in an extended patient series. PALB2 pathogenic variants were detected in 5/585 (0.9%) "high-risk" BC, 10/1508 (0.7%) consecutive BC and 5/1802 (0.3%) OC cases. Haplotyping suggested that subjects with Slavic alleles c.509-510delGA (n = 10) and c.172-175delTTGT (n = 4) as well as carriers of Finnish c.1592delT mutation (n = 4) originated from a single founder each, while PALB2 p.R414X allele (n = 4) had at least two independent founders. Somatic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was revealed in 5/10 chemonaive BCs and in 0/2 BC samples obtained after neoadjuvant therapy. Multigene sequencing identified somatic PALB2 inactivating point mutation in one out of two tumors without PALB2 LOH but in none of four BCs with PALB2 LOH. Genomic instability, as determined by NGS, was observed in four out of five tumors with biallelic PALB2 inactivation but not in the BC sample with the preserved wild-type PALB2 allele. PALB2 germ-line mutations contribute to a small fraction of cancer cases in Russia. The majority although not all PALB2-driven BCs have somatic inactivation of the remaining PALB2 allele and therefore potential sensitivity to platinum compounds and PARP inhibitors.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: There is some evidence suggesting a link between BRCA1/2 germline mutations and increased risk of gastric cancer. METHODS: Endoscopic screening for stomach malignancies was performed in 120 BRCA1 mutation carriers in order to evaluate the probability of detecting the tumor disease. RESULTS: No instances of gastric cancer were revealed at the first visit. The analysis of atrophic changes performed by OLGA (Operative Link for Gastritis Assessment) criteria revealed that OLGA stages I-IV alterations were observed in 26 of 41 (63%) subjects aged >50 years as compared to 29 of 79 (37%) in younger subjects (p = 0.007, χ2 test). One BRCA1 mutation carrier developed gastric cancer 4 years after the first visit for endoscopic examination. We performed next-generation sequencing analysis for this tumor and additional 4 archival gastric cancers obtained from BRCA1/2 mutation carriers. Somatic loss of the remaining BRCA1/2 allele was observed in 3 out of 5 tumors analyzed; all of these carcinomas, but none of the malignancies with the retained BRCA1/2 copy, showed chromosomal instability. CONCLUSION: Taken together, these data justify further studies on the relationships between the BRCA1/2 and gastric cancer.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The spectrum of BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations in Slavic countries is characterized by a high prevalence of founder alleles. METHODS: We analyzed a large data set of Russian breast cancer (BC) and ovarian cancer (OC) patients, who were subjected to founder mutation tests or full-length BRCA1 and BRCA2 analysis. RESULTS: The most commonly applied test, which included four founder mutations (BRCA1: 5382insC, 4153delA, 185delAG; BRCA2: 6174delT), identified BRCA1 or BRCA2 heterozygosity in 399/8533 (4.7%) consecutive BC patients, 230/2317 (9.9%) OC patients, and 30/118 (25.4%) women with a combination of BC and OC. The addition of another four recurrent BRCA1 mutations to the test (BRCA1 C61G, 2080delA, 3819del5, 3875del4) resulted in evident increase in the number of identified mutation carriers (BC: 16/993 (1.6%); OC: 34/1289 (2.6%); BC + OC: 2/39 (5.1%)). Full-length sequencing of the entire BRCA1 and BRCA2 coding region was applied to 785 women, very most of whom demonstrated clinical signs of BRCA-driven disease, but turned out negative for all described above founder alleles. This analysis revealed additional BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers in 54/282 (19.1%) BC, 50/472 (10.6%) OC, and 13/31 (42%) BC + OC patients. The analysis of frequencies of founder and "rare" BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic alleles across various clinical subgroups (BC vs. OC vs. BC + OC; family history positive vs. negative; young vs. late-onset; none vs. single vs. multiple clinical indicators of BRCA1- or BRCA2-associated disease) revealed that comprehensive BRCA1 and BRCA2 analysis increased more than twice the number of identified mutation carriers in all categories of the examined women. CONCLUSION: Full-length BRCA1 and BRCA2 sequencing is strongly advised to Slavic subjects, who have medical indications for BRCA1 and BRCA2 testing but are negative for recurrent BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Germline variants in known breast cancer (BC) predisposing genes explain less than half of hereditary BC cases. This study aimed to identify missing genetic determinants of BC. METHODS: Whole exome sequencing (WES) of lymphocyte DNA was performed for 49 Russian patients with clinical signs of genetic BC predisposition, who lacked Slavic founder mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, CHEK2, and NBS1 genes. RESULTS: Bioinformatic analysis of WES data was allowed to compile a list of 229 candidate mutations. 79 of these mutations were subjected to a three-stage case-control analysis. The initial two stages, which involved up to 797 high-risk BC patients, 1504 consecutive BC cases, and 1081 healthy women, indicated a potentially BC-predisposing role for 6 candidates, i.e., USP39 c.*208G > C, PZP p.Arg680Ter, LEPREL1 p.Pro636Ser, SLIT3 p.Arg154Cys, CREB3 p.Lys157Glu, and ING1 p.Pro319Leu. USP39 c.*208G > C was strongly associated with triple-negative breast tumors (p = 0.0001). In the third replication stage, we genotyped the truncating variant of PZP (rs145240281) and the potential splice variant of USP39 (rs112653307) in three independent cohorts of Russian, Byelorussian, and German ancestry, comprising a total of 3216 cases and 2525 controls. The data obtained for USP39 rs112653307 supported the association identified in the initial stages (the combined OR 1.72, p = 0.035). CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests the role of a rare splicing variant in BC susceptibility. USP39 encodes an ubiquitin-specific peptidase that regulates cancer-relevant tumor suppressors including CHEK2. Further epidemiological and functional studies involving these gene variants are warranted.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Large genomic rearrangements (LGRs) constitute a significant share of pathogenic BRCA1 mutations. Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) is a leading method for LGR detection; however, it is entirely based on the use of commercial kits, includes relatively time-consuming hybridization step, and is not convenient for large-scale screening of recurrent LGRs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We developed and validated the droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assay, which covers the entire coding region of BRCA1 gene and is capable to precisely quantitate the copy number for each exon. RESULTS: 141 breast cancer (BC) patients, who demonstrated evident clinical features of hereditary BC but turned out to be negative for founder BRCA1/2 mutations, were subjected to the LGR analysis. Four patients with LGR were identified, with three cases of exon 8 deletion and one women carrying the deletion of exons 5-7. Excellent concordance with MLPA test was observed. Exon 8 copy number was tested in additional 720 BC and 184 ovarian cancer (OC) high-risk patients, and another four cases with the deletion were revealed; MLPA re-analysis demonstrated that exon 8 loss was a part of a larger genetic alteration in two cases, while the remaining two patients had isolated defect of exon 8. Long-range PCR and next generation sequencing of DNA samples carrying exon 8 deletion revealed two types of recurrent LGRs. CONCLUSION: Droplet digital PCR is a reliable tool for the detection of large genomic rearrangements.
