Genomic Predictors of Survival in Patients with High-grade Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder

Abstract: Urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB) is genomically heterogeneous, with frequent alterations in genes regulating chromatin state, cell cycle control, and receptor kinase signaling. To identify prognostic genomic markers in high-grade UCB, we utilized capture-based massively-parallel sequencing to analyze 109 tumors. Mutations were detected in 240 genes, with 23 genes mutated in ≥5% of cases. The presence of a recurrent PIK3CA mutation was associated with improved recurrence-free survival (RFS; HR=0.35, p=… Show more

“…The discovery of the molecular pathways involved in urothelial cancer recurrence and progression has allowed for the identification of potential prognostic and predictive markers [116,129,130]. It has also permitted the development of novel noninvasive detection and surveillance strategies and revealed potential therapeutic targets [131][132][133][134][135][136].…”

“…These studies revealed high alteration frequencies in genes participating in chromatin remodeling. In particular, 83% of patients in one study exhibited mutations in the chromatin remodeling genes (6) while our previous study identified EP300 and CREBBP as 2 of the 4 most frequently mutated genes in human bladder cancer (7). …”

“…We and others have used next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to identify the mutational spectrum of urothelial carcinomas of the bladder with the hope that this will provide therapeutic insights and actionable targets. To date, four independent studies performed whole-genome and whole-exome sequencing in bladder tumor samples to catalog genetic alterations to identify the dysregulated signaling pathways of bladder cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis (36). These studies revealed high alteration frequencies in genes participating in chromatin remodeling.…”

“…PIK3CA mutations are associated with FGFR3 mutations, suggesting that both mutations may be involved in the same pathway of tumor progression [22,24,44]. PIK3CA mutation may be associated with an improved recurrence-free survival and improved cancer-specific survival in patients treated with radical cystectomy [46].…”
