Diagnostic problem: * Patient with two or more synchronous or metachronous tumors * Independent primaries or primary and metastasis? HNSCC / lung adenocarcinoma; HNSCC / lung SCC * Treatment with curative intent versus palliative treatment (important for individual patient)
Cancer is a disease of the DNA Tumor cells differ from normal cells by the presence of DNA aberrations
Genomic aberrations in tumor cells versus normal cells: (Genomic aberrations as result of genomic instability) * Specific genomic aberrations causally related to the transformation of normal cell to tumor cell or to progression of transformed cell: - Drivers Non-specific genomic aberrations: * - Passengers/Hitchhikers - Fragile genomic sites/regions - Age related genomic aberrations
Tumor cells differ from normal cells by the presence of DNA aberrations * (part of the) Genomic aberrations can be regarded as tumor specific clonal markers Genomic aberrations can be used to determine the * relationship between multiple tumors within one patient (multiple primaries or metastatic disease)
Diagnostic Case: woman 78 years: Endometrioid endometrium carcinoma of the uterus (T1) Adenocarcinoma in the right ovarium (T2) Question: two independent primary tumors or metastatic disease? NGS approach: Ion Torrent PGM.
DNA isolation from tumor and normal tissue: * Routine formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues * Manual microdissection of tumor and normal tissue from FFPE sections cytology preps, stained or unstained routine H&E stained sections routine IHC stained sections
DNA isolation from routine Pathology (FFPE) specimens Paraffin block Immuno stained section Paraffin section (stained) cytology preparation H&E stained section
High % tumor cells for DNA isolation: manual or laser capture microdissection
DNA isolation: Tissue fragments in Tris/HCl, pH 8.0 + Prot K + Chelex 100 resin (w or w/o deparaffinisation) O.N. 56 0 C 10 min 95 0 C and centrifugation Supernatant used for short-amplicon PCR
THE ION TORRENT NGS • Allows simultaneous detection of mutations in multiple genes in routine pathology specimens • in very small lesions, biopsies and cytology material – requires low DNA input (<10 ng) • in crude preparations of inferior quality FFPE-derived DNA • sensitive detection of mutations in background of wt DNA • custum made gene panels are easily generated

Results Both tumors have multiple identical molecular aberrations Conclusion: Endometrioid endometrium tumor and ovarium tumor most likely one entity: primary and metasasis
Conclusions: Detection of molecular aberrations in tumors is possible in routine specimens Results supply significant information on the relationship between multiple tumors within one patient Results have impact on clinical treatment
