Introduction

Accepted diagnostic workup CLL prior to treatment

• FISH 13q, tris 12, 11q and 17p

• TP53 mutation according to ERIC guidelines

Highly valuable to predict outcome for CIT

Also valuable to predict TKI outcome?

Number of prior CIT regimens determine Ibrutinib outcome

EFS by FISH EFS by CK

EFS by FISH without CK EFS by 17p +/- CK

Questions

• Should we care about complex cytogenetic abberations?

– Different groups demonstrated prognostic value

– Never been introduced in official guidelines (e.g. CCMO)

– according to industry: Yes

• How reproducible is CK using metaphase cytogenetic analysis following mitogens?

• Can SNP-based array robustly identify patients with a complex karyotype?

Chromosome banding analysis (CBA) in CLL

Study Type of study Stimulation* Karyotyping (CBA)**

Thompson et al 2015 CBA + FISH CpG+IL-2 In 90% (56/63) CBA successful

Dicker et al 2006 CBA + FISH CpG+IL-2 In 80% (106/132) CBA successful

Mayr et al 2006 CBA + FISH

CD40L CpG+IL-2

In 88% (96/109) CBA successful In 34% (33/96) structural rearrangements Confirmation CD40L results (n=14 cases)

Haferlach et al 2007 CBA + FISH

CpG+IL-2

In 98% (500/506) CBA successful In 83% (415/500) abnormal karyotypes

Rigolin et al 2012 CBA + FISH CpG+IL-2 In 36% (30/84) abnormal karyotypes

Put et al 2009 CBA + FISH

TPA CPG+IL-2

In 38% (82/217) abnormal karyotypes In 51% (111/217) abnormal karyotypes

Puiggros et al 2012 CBA + FISH + aCGH TPA In 31% (22/70) abnormal karyotypes

Van den Neste et al 2007 CBA + FISH TPA In 62% (40/65) abnormal karyotypes

Cytogenetic analysis in the 1980s-1990s using TPA revealed chromosome aberrations in 40-50% of CLL patients

CpG oligonucleotides (DSP30) ; IL-2, Interleukin-2 CD40 Ligand ; TPA, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate * Cultured for 72 hours ** Success defined as at least 20 metaphases 6

Pitfalls CBA in CLL

• Whole variety of mitogens published: CPG+IL2; CD40L+IL2; LPS; TPA; head to head comparisons lacking

• Success rates vary

- Due to previous therapy?

- Outgrowth more aggressive clones?

• If success is a determination of DNA instability than lower rates of succes are expected at earlier treatment lines

Principle: Microarray-based Genomic profiling (large quantity of probes: e.g. 2.7 million)

Deletion vs Copy neutral loss of heterozygosity (cnLOH)

Uniparental disomy, i.e: copy neutral LOH

Reproducibility and interpretatation of karyotyping using mitogens vs FISH vs

CGH array in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

• comprehensive review of the literature related to karyotyping, FISH, and microarray profiling in CLL will be established (as proposed by B. Espinet/A. Puiggros).

• Find out if there is a superior technique / mitogen to perform karyotyping.

• Test the reproducibility (and diagnostic yield) of chromosome banding analysis using mitogens DSP30/IL2.

• Test the reproducibility and diagnostic yield of microarray profiling in identifying patients with a complex karyotype (as revealed by CBA).

• The values of complex karyotype and complex array profile in predicting outcome will be evaluated in larger study group

Methods

Comparison of Chromosome banding analysis following mitogens vs SNP-array in well

characterized samples

20

Phase 1. Compare the different assays on the same samples: Inter-assay comparison Phase 2. Compare results of the same assays in different labs: Intra-assay comparison Phase 3. Compare results with clinical outcome

Karyotyping (n=30 patients)

• Karyotyping results (chromosome banding analysis) based on stimulated cultures (e.g. CpG+IL-2)

- 10 cases with complex karyotype without (visible) del(17p)

- 10 cases with complex karyotype with (visible) del(17p)

• 5-10(?) normal karyotypes (how many?)

Practical issues

• Make use of already existing karyotyping data

Thomson et al, Cancer 2015; 121:3612-21 21

SNP-based array (n=30 patients)

• Microarray analysis on DNA from the same patients as used for karyotyping

Practical issues

• Make use of stored DNA (if present), or

• Isolate DNA from frozen cell suspensions (cell culture)

22

FISH (n=30 patients)

• Confirmation of karyotyping results

• Routine CLL FISH-panel for detection of – Deletion 13q14

– Trisomy 12

– Deletion 11q22-23

– Deletion 17p

Practical issues

• Make use of already existing FISH-data present in participating laboratories which did karyotyping, or

• Perform FISH using frozen cell suspensions (cell culture)

23

SNP-array in the Netherlands

• Limit of detection: detection of copy number abnormalities present in as few as 16% of the cells

• Validated on two different array platforms

- Cytoscan Affymetrix

- HumanOmniExpress12v1.0 Illumina

• Identification of focal deletions and copy neutral losses of heterozygosity

Stevens-Kroef et al. Molecular Cytogenetics 2014, 7:3 24

TP53 mutation analysis

• Perform TP53 analysis on DNA from the same patients as used for karyotyping (Sanger or NGS)

Practical issues:

• Make use of stored DNA (if present), or

• Isolate DNA from frozen cell suspensions (cell culture)

Discussion points (1)

• Number of viable frozen cells to be send for karyotyping (>10 X 106)

• Amount of DNA to be send for genomic array (>500 ng)

• If FISH (17p/TP53) already done it has not be repeated

• If TP53 mutation analysis is already done this has not be repeated.

• Is sanger sequencing (minimal sensitivity 10%) OKE, or should we apply for next generation sequencing?

• Number of cases for study technical issues (karyotyping, mitogen, array)

Discussion points (definition of complexity)
