Mutational profiles of persistent/recurrent laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma

Abstract

Background

We sought to describe targeted DNA sequencing data of persistent/recurrent laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) and to compare gene‐specific alteration frequencies with that of primary, untreated LSCC specimens from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA).

Methods

The tumors of 21 patients with persistent/recurrent LSCC were subjected to targeted DNA sequencing using the Ion AmpliSeq Comprehensive Cancer Panel. Gene‐specific alteration frequencies were compared (Chi‐Square test) to primary, untreated LSCC sequencing data from TCGA using the cBioPortal platform.

Results

Persistent/recurrent LSCC was characterized by a high rate of inactivating alterations in TP53 (38.1%) and CDKN2A (33%), amplification events of CCND1 (19.1%), and ERBB2 (14.3%), and NOTCH1 (19.1%) mutations. Comparison of primary vs persistent/recurrent LSCC revealed significant differences in alteration frequencies of eight critical genes: BAP1, CDKN2A, DCUN1D1, MSH2, MTOR, PIK3CA, TET2, and TP53.

Conclusions

Our results provide preliminary support for a distinct mutational profile of persistent/recurrent LSCC that requires validation in larger cohorts.
