Background
• Cancer : frequent secondary progression, resistance to conventional chemotherapy : therapeutic challenge
• Selection for genetic alterations during treatment• Subclonal driver mutations might play a role in tumor progression• Presence of driver mutation-harboring subclones at diagnosis, which
might expand at relapse, has been linked to adverse outcome in hematological malignancies (Landau et al, 2013)
• Different models of clonal evolution (Ding et al, 2011) : – Dominant clone evolves into relapse clone– A minor clone carrying the vast majority of primary tumor mutations
escapes and expands at relapse
Presented by: Gudrun Schleiermacher
Hallmark of neuroblastoma : clinical heterogeneity
Improvement of EFS in NB (all stages) over the last decadesBut : despite significant progress for lower stages, survival in stage 4 disease does still not exceed 40% (mortality linked to metastatic tumor progression)
Observation only Surgery Chemotherapy

Treatment of neuroblastoma :
ALK TRK plays a role in NB oncogenesis
Germline Mutations of ALK in neuroblastoma families
• Activating ALK mutations in 8 – 10% of all NB at diagnosis (Mosse et al, Janoueix-Lerosey et al, Chen et al, George et al 2008; De Brouwer et al, 2010)
• Report of a relapse-specific ALK mutation (Martinsson et al, 2011)
• Objectives of this study : Determine the frequency of ALK mutations at relapse and their role in clonal evolution of NB

Discussion
• Sensitivity of the PGM® deep sequencing technique:• Mean overall coverage (control cell lines): >175,000X
• Errors in PGM: • vary strongly according to the genome structure : homopolymers; • possible link to sequencing errors due to polymerase slippage, errors in the chemistry
• Mean overall background variability : 0·034%+/-0·035% for each base
• Number of reads would be considered statistically different from the background (Bonferroni correction) : a variation supported by 296 reads, or observed with a frequency of 0·17%, would result in a statistically significant difference from the controls (two-sided Fisher’s exact test)
• Sensitivity 0.17% (100 fold that of Sanger sequencing , 20%)
• Limits in sensitivity : quantity of analyzed material• PCR of exon 23/25 amplicons : 50 ng of genomic DNA
• ~ 5000 (diploid) cells
• Limit of detection : 1/5000 cells; 1/10 000 haploid genomes

ALK in tumor progression
Clinical implicationsEncourage new biopsy at relapse!
Search for subclones:
Evaluation of frequency of ALK mutated subclones at diagnosis
ALK targeted treatment for cases with subclonal ALK mutations? further investigations in vitro and in vivo
• In NB, ALK mutations might occur as subclones at diagnosis with secondary expansion
• selective advantage during tumor progression• ALK-mutated and non-mutated cells might co-exist in an equilibrium• expansion of an ALK-mutated clone upon treatment : preferential cytotoxic
effect on ALK non-mutated clones?
NB at diagnosis
NB at relapse
When considering biomarker based ALK
