Sumario: | Recently, sequencing of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) biopsy specimens has revealed genomic heterogeneity of these tumors, fueling an interest in individualized, targeted treatment options. The Pacific Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Consortium recently completed enrollment onto a feasibility study PNOC003: Molecular Profiling for Individualized Treatment Plan for DIPG (NCT02274987), in which a multidisciplinary tumor board recommended molecularly-targeted agents based on genomic and molecular profiling of each patient’s tumor. Separately, our group developed the Central Nervous System Targeted Agent Prediction (CNS-TAP) tool, which combines pre-clinical, clinical, and CNS penetration data with patient-specific genomic information to allow for numeric scoring of targeted anticancer agents to objectively evaluate these therapies for use in patients with CNS tumors. We hypothesized that highly-scored agents within CNS-TAP would overlap with the agents recommended by the tumor board in this study. For each PNOC003 participant, we utilized the genomic report to identify actionable alterations and input patient-specific data into CNS-TAP to identify the highest scoring agents. We compared high-scoring agents within CNS-TAP with recommendations from the PNOC003 tumor board for each of the enrolled 28 subjects. Overall, 93% (26/28) of patients had at least one agent recommended by both the tumor board and CNS-TAP. Additionally, 38% (37/95) of all agents recommended by the tumor board were also selected by CNS-TAP. Furthermore, we identified factors that likely contributed to the discordance between these two methods. Without clinician input, CNS-TAP is unable to account for drug-drug interactions, includes only designated anticancer agents, and cannot easily be updated in real time. However, CNS-TAP provides an objective evaluation of targeted therapies, whereas tumor boards are inherently subjective. Given the discordance identified between these methods and the strengths of each, a prospective study incorporating both CNS-TAP and a molecular tumor board for targeted therapy selection in DIPG patients is warranted. |
