摘要
Chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Liquid biopsies provide a convenient and non-invasive detection method for monitoring disease progression in patients with SCLC.We performed next-generation sequencing of 159 plasma samples from 69 patients with extensive-stage (ES)-SCLC. Circulating tumor (ct)DNA levels were quantified in haploid genome equivalents per mL (hGE/mL). MuTect2 was used to detect single nucleotide variants and short insertions/deletions. The "enrichKEGG" function in the "clusterProfiler" R package was used to enrich the mutated genes that only appeared during disease progression.In our cohort, 66 of 69 (95.7%) plasma samples at the time of diagnosis had detectable somatic mutations; TP53 (89%) and RB1(56%) were the most frequent mutations, as well as copy number variations in some common SCLC-related genes such as RB1. Combination ctDNA and tissue testing improved the overall detection rate of actionable mutations from 19.4% to 26.9% compared with that of tissue detection alone. In addition, ctDNA levels changed dynamically during the course of treatment and were significantly associated with decreased progression-free survival. Notably, actionable mutations were detected at the time of diagnosis and during disease progression.Our study revealed a dynamic somatic mutation profile through continuous ctDNA detection and confirmed that ctDNA levels can reflect tumor burden and predict PFS in patients with extensive stage-SCLC. Furthermore, we demonstrated that plasma ctDNA assays can provide real-time information on somatic mutations for potential targeted therapies for SCLC.
