Abstract 3909
Background
Lung cancer is currently a leading cause of cancer-associated mortality worldwide. Despite the increasing evidences of cancer-related variants that were associated with lung cancer risk, investigations of genetic factors and their roles in genetic susceptibility to lung cancer were limited.
Methods
Genomic profiling of DNA was performed through next-generation sequencing (NGS) on tissue or liquid biopsy from 3,651 Chinese patients with lung cancer between January 01, 2017 and May 07, 2019 in 3D Medicines database. Patients with germline mutations were identified, and their clinical information were collected.
Results
Of 3,651 patients with lung cancer, 58 (1.59%) were identified to carry one pathogenic germline mutations in 14 potentially cancer predisposition genes, with a frequency of 1.45% in lung adenocarcinoma (N = 2837), 1.96% in squamous cell lung cancer (N = 612), and 3.12% in small cell lung cancer (N = 160), respectively. None has been found in the small subset of adenosquamous lung carcinoma (N = 42). Amongst all, the highest mutation prevalence was found in BRCA2 (0.47%), BRCA1 (0.22%), CHEK2 (0.22%), TP53 (0.19%), and RAD50 (0.11%). Notably, a majority (57.1%) of the detected germline mutations fell in DNA damage repair (DDR) pathways, including BRCA2, BRCA1, CHEK2, RAD50, ATM, ATR, PALB2, and MRE11A. No significant correlation of the germline mutation prevalence and patients’ histology type was observed (P = 0.26).
Conclusions
This is the first systematic study in germline mutations in Chinese patients with sporadic lung cancer. Our study uncovered the mutation spectrum in Chinese lung cancer population and provided valuable clues for the assessment of the genetic susceptibility to lung cancer.
