ObjectiveWe previously reported a characterisation of the hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) immune contexture and described an immune-specific class. We now aim to further delineate the immunogenomic classification of HCC to incorporate features that explain responses/resistance to immunotherapy.DesignWe performed RNA and whole-exome sequencing, T-cell receptor (TCR)-sequencing, multiplex immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry in a novel cohort of 240 HCC patients and validated our results in other cohorts comprising 660 patients.ResultsOur integrative analysis led to define: (1) the inflamed class of HCC (37%), which includes the previously reported immune subclass (22%) and a new immune-like subclass (15%) with high interferon signalling, cytolytic activity, expression of immune-effector cytokines and a more diverse T-cell repertoire. A 20-gene signature was able to capture ~90% of these tumours and is associated with response to immunotherapy. Proteins identified in liquid biopsies recapitulated the inflamed class with an area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.91; (2) The intermediate class, enriched inTP53mutations (49% vs 29%, p=0.035), and chromosomal losses involving immune-related genes and; (3) the excluded class, enriched inCTNNB1mutations (93% vs 27%, pPTK2overexpression due to gene amplification and promoter hypomethylation.CTNNB1mutations outside the excluded class led to weak activation of the Wnt-βcatenin pathway or occurred in HCCs dominated by high interferon signalling and type I antigen presenting genes.ConclusionWe have characterised the immunogenomic contexture of HCC and defined inflamed and non-inflamed tumours. Two distinctCTNNB1patterns associated with a differential role in immune evasion are described. These features may help predict immune response in HCC.

Purpose:Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is usually diagnosed at advanced stages, with limited therapeutic options. Preclinical models focused on unresectable metastatic CCA are necessary to develop rational treatments. Pathogenic mutations in IDH1/2, ARID1A/B, BAP1, and BRCA1/2 have been identified in 30%–50% of patients with CCA. Several types of tumor cells harboring these mutations exhibit homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) phenotype with enhanced sensitivity to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). However, PARPi treatment has not yet been tested for effectiveness in patient-derived models of advanced CCA.Experimental Design:We have established a collection of patient-derived xenografts from patients with unresectable metastatic CCA (CCA_PDX). The CCA_PDXs were characterized at both histopathologic and genomic levels. We optimized a protocol to generate CCA tumoroids from CCA_PDXs. We tested the effects of PARPis in both CCA tumoroids and CCA_PDXs. Finally, we used the RAD51 assay to evaluate the HRD status of CCA tissues.Results:This collection of CCA_PDXs recapitulates the histopathologic and molecular features of their original tumors. PARPi treatments inhibited the growth of CCA tumoroids and CCA_PDXs with pathogenic mutations of BRCA2, but not those with mutations of IDH1, ARID1A, or BAP1. In line with these findings, only CCA_PDX and CCA patient biopsy samples with mutations of BRCA2 showed RAD51 scores compatible with HRD.Conclusions:Our results suggest that patients with advanced CCA with pathogenic mutations of BRCA2, but not those with mutations of IDH1, ARID1A, or BAP1, are likely to benefit from PARPi therapy. This collection of CCA_PDXs provides new opportunities for evaluating drug response and prioritizing clinical trials.

Purpose:Because of the increased number of sequential treatments used for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), there is a need for surrogate endpoints of overall survival (OS). We analyze whether objective response (OR) is an independent predictor and surrogate endpoint of OS.Patients and Methods:A systematic review of randomized clinical trials (RCT) in advanced HCC published between 2010 and 2020 was conducted to explore OS surrogacy of OR by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) and modified RECIST (mRECIST). In parallel, RCTs exploring the impact of OR on OS in a time-dependent multivariate analysis were integrated in a meta-analysis.Results:Of 65 RCTs identified in advanced HCC, we analyzed 34 studies including 14,056 patients that reported OS and OR by either RECIST (n = 23), mRECIST (n = 5), or both (n = 6). When exploring surrogacy, the trial-level correlation between OR odds ratio and OS HR was R = 0.677 by mRECIST and R = 0.532 by RECIST. Meta-analysis of five RCTs assessing predictors of survival in multivariate analysis found that patients with OR by mRECIST presented a pooled HR for OS of 0.44 (95% confidence interval, 0.27–0.70; P < 0.001) compared with nonresponders. Responses to atezolizumab-bevacizumab had a greater impact on OS than tyrosine kinase inhibitor responses.Conclusions:OR-mRECIST is an independent predictor of OS in patients with advanced HCC. Although correlation of OR-mRECIST and OS is better than with OR-RECIST, the level of surrogacy is modest. Thus, it can be used as endpoint in proof-of-concept phase II trials, but the data do not support its use as a primary endpoint of phase III investigations assessing systemic therapies.

582 Background: Ampullary carcinoma (AC) is a rare heterogeneous group of diseases with an abysmal prognosis. Treatment options are limited, and the molecular landscape of this disease and its therapeutic implications have been incompletely explored. Here, we aim to provide a clinical and genomic characterization of AC and explore opportunities for precision oncology. Methods: Patients diagnosed with AC and treated at a single tertiary institution between 2010 and 2022 were reviewed. Molecular profiles were analyzed by applying an in-house exome-targeted panel or the FoundationOne CDx panel. Gene mutations were categorized into molecular pathways and potentially targetable alterations were classified according to the ESCAT scale. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were estimated by using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: We included 64 patients with a median age of 66 years, 51.6% were women, most were classified as pancreatobiliary tumours (PB, 58.3%), followed by intestinal (INT, 33.3%) and mixed histologies (8.3%). 18.8%, 23.4%, 32.8% and 25.0% of the patients were diagnosed at stage I, II, III and IV, respectively. 81.2% of the patients were treated with surgery. The INT subtype was enriched in WNT pathway alterations (28.6 vs 6.2%, p=0.02) and showed a non-significant enrichment in the apoptotic pathway (57.1 vs 34.4%, p=0.08). Conversely, BP showed a non-significant enrichment in HRR pathway alterations (16.7 vs 54.5%, p=0.3). The frequency of KRAS mutations were similar in both subtypes (38.1 vs 37.5%). Potentially actionable molecular alterations were found in 46.7% of the patients (9 ERBB2, 8 HRD, 8 PI3KCA, 2 MSI, 2 BRAF, 2 PTEN and 1 KRAS G12C). Importantly, KRASwt tumours were enriched in potentially targetable alterations (ESCAT I-IIIA), including 20% ERBB2 amplification/mutations, 6% MSI and 3% BRCA1. 6 patients received matched targeted therapies during their disease course, 66% of which responded and 100% stable disease, with a median TTD of 7 months. Conclusions: More than 45% of AC harbor potentially targetable genomic alterations that may provide novel therapeutic opportunities and enhance personalized medicine in this rare disease entity.

Background & aims: single-agent anti-PD1 checkpoint inhibitors convey outstanding clinical benefits in a small fraction (∼20%) of patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (aHCC) but the molecular mechanisms determining response are unknown. To fill this gap, we herein analyze the molecular and immune traits of aHCC in patients treated with anti-PD1. Methods: overall, 111 tumor samples from patients with aHCC were obtained from 13 centers before systemic therapies. We performed molecular analysis and immune deconvolution using whole-genome expression data (n = 83), mutational analysis (n = 72), and histologic evaluation with an endpoint of objective response. Results: among 83 patients with transcriptomic data, 28 were treated in frontline, whereas 55 patients were treated after tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) either in second or third line. Responders treated in frontline showed upregulated interferon-γ signaling and major histocompatibility complex II-related antigen presentation. We generated an 11-gene signature (IFNAP), capturing these molecular features, which predicts response and survival in patients treated with anti-PD1 in frontline. The signature was validated in a separate cohort of aHCC and >240 patients with other solid cancer types where it also predicted response and survival. Of note, the same signature was unable to predict response in archival tissue of patients treated with frontline TKIs, highlighting the need for fresh biopsies before immunotherapy. Conclusion: interferon signaling and major histocompatibility complex-related genes are key molecular features of HCCs responding to anti-PD1. A novel 11-gene signature predicts response in frontline aHCC, but not in patients pretreated with TKIs. These results must be confirmed in prospective studies and highlights the need for biopsies before immunotherapy to identify biomarkers of response.

Liver cancer, more specifically hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is the second leading cause of cancer-related death and its incidence is increasing globally. Around 50% of patients with HCC receive systemic therapies, traditionally sorafenib or lenvatinib in the first line and regorafenib, cabozantinib or ramucirumab in the second line. In the past 5 years, immune-checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized the management of HCC. The combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab has been shown to improve overall survival relative to sorafenib, resulting in FDA approval of this regimen. More recently, durvalumab plus tremelimumab yielded superior overall survival versus sorafenib and atezolizumab plus cabozantinib yielded superior progression-free survival. In addition, pembrolizumab monotherapy and the combination of nivolumab plus ipilimumab have received FDA Accelerated Approval in the second-line setting based on early efficacy data. Despite these major advances, the molecular underpinnings governing immune responses and evasion remain unclear. The immune microenvironment has crucial roles in the development and progression of HCC and distinct aetiology-dependent immune features have been defined. Inflamed and non-inflamed classes of HCC and genomic signatures have been associated with response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors, yet no validated biomarker is available to guide clinical decision-making. This Review provides information on the immune microenvironments underlying the response or resistance of HCC to immunotherapies. In addition, current evidence from phase III trials on the efficacy, immune-related adverse events and aetiology-dependent mechanisms of response are described. Finally, we discuss emerging trials assessing immunotherapies across all stages of HCC that might change the management of this disease in the near future.

The combination of atezolizumab and bevacizumab increases overall survival compared with sorafenib in advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Its approval by the FDA has launched a new era of combination therapies in advanced and earlier settings that are likely to reshape the management of HCC across all disease stages.

Purpose of review The systemic therapies available in recurrent and metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma to date are palliative-intent treatments in most cases. However, a small subgroup of patients derives unconventional benefit and become long-term survivors, achieving cure in some cases. This review focusses on this group of patients, discusses recent literature and suggests plausible molecular hypothesis. Recent findings Human papillomavirus-related disease is known to confer a better prognosis in metastatic patients, probably because of its greater sensitivity to systemic therapies. This group of patients seems to have a greater immune activation, which could partly explain this fact. Moreover, the use of antiepidermal growth factor receptor therapies in the metastatic setting has doubled the prevalence of long-term survivors. One of the most plausible explanations is the immune-modulatory effect of cetuximab mediated by antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity.These facts, along with the recent encouraging results of checkpoint inhibitors in this disease, give hope that these therapies will not only improve survival but also increase the prevalence of long-term survivors. Summary Long-term survivors merit our utmost attention as an in-depth study of these patients could help us to better understand the tumour biology and allow us to develop robust biomarkers and effective targeted therapies, which could in turn lead to a true paradigm shift.

e16302 Background: Approximately 80% of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients present with advanced disease at diagnosis, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. According to molecular profiling, mutations in KRAS have been described in 90% of PDAC patients, and correlated with poor prognosis. Nevertheless, the invasiveness of tumor biopsy and the difficulties in obtaining quality samples in some patients remains a concern. Circulating free DNA (cfDNA) is considered a surrogate marker of tumor burden and may also act as a prognostic factor that can be used independently from tumor biopsy. In this study, we aim to explore molecular prognostic biomarkers using plasma samples. Methods: Patients with metastatic PDAC harboring KRAS mutation in tissue samples and treated with first-line chemotherapy were identified at Vall d’Hebron University Hospital. Clinical features and plasma samples were collected before starting any treatment. DNA mutations were analyzed in plasma and compared with tissue samples. In plasma, detection of KRAS mutation and total cfDNA concentration were evaluated for clinical significance. A cfDNA minimum 100 genome equivalent threshold was proposed based on results and utility. A Chi-square test was planned to prove the independence between cfDNA levels and KRAS detection in plasma. Survival analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: We included 33 PDAC patients with a median age of 66.1 years old, 57% were women. All of them were treated with gemcitabine and Nab-paclitaxel. At the final analysis cut-off, 31 patients had died . KRAS mutation was detected in 25 patients’ blood samples (75.8%) and cfDNA-High levels were considered for 20 patients (60.6%). 19 of 20 (95%) patients with cfDNA-High correlated with KRAS blood detection, showing significant dependence (p-value 0.001). Median overall survival (OS) was 10.5 months in the KRAS detected group compared with 22.6 months in the KRAS non-detected group (HR for death 4.70; confidence interval (CI) 1.70-12.98, p-value 0.002). Better separation was seen using cfDNA where median OS was 9.8 months in the cfDNA-High group compared with 21.0 months in the cfDNA-Low group (HR for death 5.38; CI 2.17-13.31, p-value < 0.001). Conclusions: Liquid biopsy can provide quality prognostic information in metastatic PDAC patients. On account of this, the cfDNA level is proposed as a prognostic factor. However, prospective cohorts to validate this information are needed.[Table: see text]

Contrast enhancement (CE) is found in 10–60% of low-grade gliomas. Its prognostic significance is controversial, and its correlation with IDH mutations and 1p/19q codeletion is elusive. The aim of this study is to investigate whether CE is associated with molecular characteristics of low-grade gliomas and uncover its prognostic value. All confirmed histological cases of low-grade gliomas diagnosed at our institution between years 2000–2016 were reviewed (n = 102). Spinal and brainstem localization, only-biopsied tumours with ring-like enhancement and incomplete medical records were excluded. Mean age was 42 years ( ± 13.9 years), and 63.6% were male. The median follow-up time was 79.8 months. CE was present on 25% of preoperative MRI, and 25% of patients were considered high-risk according to Pignatti score. Most were astrocytomas (67%) and 87.2% were surgically removed. IDH mutation was found in 64.6% of tumour samples, and 18.8% had a 1p/19q codeletion. No subgroup differences were observed according to CE except for presurgical performance status and postoperative chemotherapy. IDH status and 1p/19q codeletion were evenly distributed. On univariate analysis, age, size > 6 cm, CE, extent of resection, Pignatti score, IDH mutation and 1p/19q codeletion were significantly associated to OS. On multivariate analysis, only CE and IDH status were independently associated to OS. CE remained a significant prognostic factor in IDH-mutant non-codeleted tumours when analysed by tumour subtype. CE in low-grade gliomas provides prognostic information in IDH-mutant non-codeleted tumours, although its meaning remains uncertain in IDH-wildtype gliomas.

Uveal melanoma is considered a rare disease but it is the most common intraocular malignancy in adults. Local treatments are effective, but the systemic recurrence rate is unacceptably high. Moreover, once metastasis have developed the prognosis is poor, with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%, and systemic therapies, including immunotherapy, have rendered poor results. The tumour biology is complex, but angiogenesis is a highly important pathway in these tumours. Vasculogenic mimicry, the ability of melanomas to generate vascular channels independently of endothelial cells, could play an important role, but no effective therapy targeting this process has been developed so far. Angiogenesis modulates the tumour microenvironment of melanomas, and a close interplay is established between them. Therefore, combining immune strategies with drugs targeting angiogenesis offers a new therapeutic paradigm. In preclinical studies, these approaches effectively target these tumours, and a phase I clinical study has shown encouraging results in cutaneous melanomas. In this review, we will discuss the importance of angiogenesis in uveal melanoma, with a special focus on vasculogenic mimicry, and describe the interplay between angiogenesis and the tumour microenvironment. In addition, we will suggest future therapeutic approaches based on these observations and mention ways in which to potentially enhance current treatments.
