Abstract 212P
Background
ERBB2 alterations are potential candidates for targeted treatments in metastatic urothelial cancer (UC). Recent data suggest that HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) treatment is efficacious. Here, we explore the role of ERBB2 in UC by analyzing genomics in a large database of real-world patients.
Methods
Tumor tissues from 1112 Chinese patients with UC were evaluated by comprehensive genomic profiling for alterations in 808 cancer-related genes. Results were analyzed for base substitutions, short indels, copy number changes, and selected rearrangements.
Results
Of 1112 cases, 167 (15.0%) featured ERBB2 genomic alterations (GAs), including 82 (7.4%) ERBB2 mutations (ERBB2mut), 41 (3.7%) ERBB2 amplifications (ERBB2amp) and 44 (4.0%) cases had co-occurring ERBB2 GAs. ERBB2mut was not mutually exclusive of ERBB2amp which occurred in up to 43.2% of co-altered cases. The top mutated ERBB2 SNVs/indels were p.S310F/Y (32, 21.2%) and p.L755S (7, 4.6%). ERBB2mut predominantly affected the kinase (49, 32.5%) or extracellular (69, 45.7%) domains. Genes commonly co-altered with ERBB2 were TERT (68.9%), ARID1A(37.1%), RB1 (28.7%), KMT2C (26.9%) and ATM (24.6%). Other significantly higher mutation frequency for genes were TP53, APC, SMARCA4, NF1, ERBB3, ERCC2, EGFR and MTOR (p<0.05) in ERBB2 GAs cases. Significantly lower rates of CDKN2B were found in ERBB2 GAs compared with ERBB2 wild type (22.0% vs 12.0%, p<0.01). CDK12 was the most common co-amplification gene with ERBB2amp (p<0.01). FGFR3 mutations were significantly enriched in ERBB2mut than ERBB2amp (p=0.04). Patients with ERBB2 GAs were significantly more likely to have high tumor mutational burden (p<0.01).
Conclusions
The study provided the landscape of ERBB2 alterations in UC that may benefit from anti-HER2 agents. Consideration should be given to developing trials inclusive of patients with UC harboring ERBB2 alterations.
