Objective:

Molecular analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) has a large potential for clinical application by capturing tumor-specific aberrations through non-invasive sampling. In gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), analysis of KIT and PDGFRA mutations is important for therapeutic decisions, but the invasiveness of traditional biopsies limits the possibilities for repeated sampling. The objective of the present study was to explore the clinical utility of ctDNA in GIST.

Methods:

Circulating cell-free DNA was isolated from plasma from 50 GIST patients. Targeted next-generation sequencing was performed using the Archer Reveal ctDNA 28 kit for Illumina, and data was processed using the Archer Analysis (v5.1) pipeline. Associations between ctDNA detection and clinical and histopathological parameters were analyzed.

Results:

Tumor-specific mutations in ctDNA were detected in 16 of 44 plasma samples (36%) from treatment-na ve patients, and in 3 of 6 (50%) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. A significant association between detection of ctDNA and the modified National Institutes of Health risk classification was found. All patients with metastatic disease had detectable ctDNA. Tumor burden was the most important detection determinant in localized disease. Median tumor size was 13.4 cm for patients with detectable mutation in plasma compared to 4.4 cm in patients without detectable mutation (p=0.006). ctDNA analysis of a patient with disease progression on imatinib revealed that multiple resistance mutations were synchronously present, and detailed analysis of tumor tissue showed that these were spatially distributed in the primary tumor, revealing a high degree of intratumor heterogeneity. Plasma samples taken throughout the course of treatment demonstrated that clonal evolution can be monitored over time.

Conclusion:

We have shown that detection of GIST-specific mutations in plasma is particularly feasible for patients with high tumor burden. In such cases, mutational analysis by use of liquid biopsies can capture the molecular heterogeneity of the whole tumor, and may guide treatment decisions during progression. Analyses of repeated samples from a cohort of patients with metastatic GIST are ongoing.
