Popis: 803 Background: The routine use of comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) has led to better genomic characterization, more personalized treatments and higher enrollment in clinical trials for many solid cancers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and genomic prolife of patients (pts) with gastrointestinal cancers (GIC) with the use of a CGP assay and their potential therapeutic benefit at a large comprehensive cancer center. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 83 consecutive pts with GIC that had CGP at the JTCC between 01/2014-09/2016. Demographics, CGP results, and clinical characteristics were studied. Clinically relevant genomic alterations (CRGAs) were identified using the FoundationOne assay (Foundation Medicine, Cambridge, MA), and were defined as alterations linked to approved therapies and those under evaluation in genotype-driven clinical trials. Results: 83 pts with GIC were analyzed. 46.9% males and 53.0% females. The median age at diagnosis was 58.5 years. 73 (88%) patients were stage III/IV at diagnosis. Tumors consisted of colorectal (36%), gastric (24%), pancreatic (12%) and cholangiocarcinoma (6%). All the pts were found to have at least one genomic alteration (GA). CRGAs were identified in 63 (76%) of cases, with an average of 2 per pt. The most frequently identified GAs were TP53 43 (29.9%), APC 24 (16.7%), KRAS 31 (21.5%), ARID1A 12 (8.3%), PIK3CA 11 (7.6%), and SMAD4 11 (7.6%). Of the 63 pts with CRGAs, 23 (36%) received one of the therapies suggested by the NGS assay, and 9 (14%) were enrolled in a clinical trial. Conclusions: The use of CGP assay identified a high frequency of CRGAs in GIC pts. The assay provided information for genomic-directed therapy in 36% of the patients. The routine use of CGP in GIC may lead to pts receive more personalized treatments. The potential benefit of selected targeted therapies in individual cases suggests that larger studies of treatment guided by routine CGP in gastrointestinal malignancies are warranted.
