Next generation sequencing of glioblastoma circulating tumor cells: non-invasive solution for disease monitoring

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Treatment of aggressive glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) must be based on very precise histological and molecular diagnostic of GBM type. According to the WHO guidelines, only tissue biopsy is a relevant source of cellular material evaluated in the diagnostic process to specify the tumor features. Nevertheless, obtaining a GBM biopsy is complicated and relies mostly on resection surgery. Evaluating circulating free DNA and/or circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the clinic, using a liquid biopsy could represent a non-invasive cancer care optimization. In the present study, the peripheral blood of patients undergoing GBM resection (n = 18) was collected and examined for CTCs. The feasibility of GBM molecular diagnostics from a simple non-invasive peripheral blood withdrawal was evaluated. The size-based enriched CTCs were analyzed using cytomorphology and their origin confirmed based on mutational analysis. In addition, shared DNA mutations in CTCs and in primary tumor tissue were searched. For the identification of CTCs, next generation sequencing (NGS) was used. The GeneReader (TM) sequencing platform enables targeted sequencing of a 12-gene panel and direct evaluation of detected gene variations using QIAGEN Clinical Insight Analyze (QCI-A) software with a special algorithm for liquid biopsy sequencing analysis. Herein, we present a standard operating procedure for CTC enrichment in GBM patients, CTC in vitro culture, CTC cytomorphological evaluation, and NGS analysis of CTCs using the QIAGEN Actionable Insights Tumor (ATP) Panel. CTCs were present in all tested patients (18/18). The NGS data generated for formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) primary tumor tissues and CTCs reached significantly high-quality parameters. The comparisons between different sample types (CTCs vs. primary tumors) and sampling area (different primary tumor regions) showed a significant level of concordance, indicating CTC testing could be used for patient monitoring and recurrence awareness. Notably, more mutations were detected when analyzing CTC samples compared with the paired primary tumors (n = 3). The results confirm the feasibility of using CTCs as a source of tumor DNA in a diagnostic process, especially when evaluating the molecular characteristics of GBMs. A major advantage of the presented NGS approach for detecting CTCs is the simultaneous identification of several markers relevant for GBM diagnostics, allowing molecular diagnostics on cytological specimens and potential administration of innovative targeted therapies.
