Expression and mutational status of treatment-relevant targets and key oncogenes in 123 malignant salivary gland tumours

Abstract: Several tumour subtypes overexpressed targets of directed therapies suggesting potential therapy leads. Genotyping results suggest activation downstream of EGFR in 18 of the 107 samples that could be associated with low efficacy of EGFR inhibitors. Other molecules, such as PI3K/MEK or mTOR inhibitors, may have anti-tumour activity in this subgroup. The high mutation rate in HRAS highlights a novel key oncogenic event in MSGT.

“…ERBB2 mutations were previously reported in SDC. [12][13][14] Other tested mutation hotspots in genes listed below were negative: ABL1, AKT1, ALK, APC, ATM, CDH1, CSF1R, CTNNB1, EGFR, ERBB4, EZH2, FGFR1, The presumably functional mutations in APC or CTNNB1 would lead to nuclear translocation of b-catenin. In agreement with NGS results, IHC for b-catenin performed on all 30 SDCs showed no nuclear b-catenin staining.…”

“…[6][7][8] Recently, additional potentially targetable genetic abnormalities in SDC were identified, including mutations of the gene encoding the p110a catalytic subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PIK3CA), 9,10 PTEN deletion, 11 and occasional BRAF or ERBB2 (HER2) mutations. [12][13][14] Nonetheless, the prevalence of genetic changes in these and potentially other genes and the relationship between genetic changes and clinicopathologic features of SDC are unknown. As an example, it is possible that the origin of SDC (de novo vs. ex pleomorphic adenoma [PA]) or androgen receptor (AR) status may affect the prevalence of genetic alterations.…”

“…Another study indicated that, as a multi-cell hybrid myoepithelioma, the cytoplasmic mucin content was the important feature of myoepithelioma (11). Cros et al (12) studied the treatment-associated gene mutations and target expressions of 123 patients with malignant salivary gland tumors, and revealed that 107 patients had varied gene mutations and target expressions, which provided the basis for additional molecular targeted therapy.…”

“…No PTEN mutation was observed, in keeping with a recent study. 9 Notably, R175 TP53 mutation leads to a "non-functional" p53 protein lacking transcriptional activity. 8 Abrogation of p53 function could have a relevant implications in AR expression regulation: it has been demonstrated that p53 wild type inhibits AR transcription 10 and the removal of the negative regulation of AR could lead to an AR overexpression.…”

“…Silencing of PI3K/AKT pathway might also counteract signals from activating mutation of PIK3CA accounting for 5% of SGCs. 9 In case 2, we also analyzed the bone metastasis developed during CAB, in order to identify biomarkers potentially related to resistance to ADT such as AR mutation/amplification and PI3K/PTEN mutation pathway, 14 whereas due to the exiguity of the FFPE material we were not able to investigate PTEN loss, recently reported in AR-positive SDCs. 15 Primary tumor and metastatic bone lesion presented the same immunohistochemical, cytogenetic, and molecular profile, suggesting that secondary hormone resistance mechanisms require further investigations in AR-positive SGCs.…”
