CTC in sarcoma

• Predictive value in other cancers

• Commercial tools imperfect for sarcoma cells

• Novel technology

• - detects telomerase + cells

CTOS 2013

CTC in sarcoma

• 11/22 patients with detectable sarcoma cells

• All histotypes (even DFSP)

• Fewer CTC vs other cancer?

• Predictive value?– 4/11 relapse CTC+– 1/11 relapses CTC-

CTOS 2013

CTC in sarcoma : questions?

• To be expanded and confirmed

• Biological significance of CTC?

• To guide adjuvant treatment?

• Help to monitor response or relapse?

CTOS 2013

• mRNAs and miRNAs are differentially expressed in STS from eribulin responders and non-responders

• Significance of biological pathways?

• Possible predictive biomarker?

• Why differences across histotypes?

• Further validation studies are required

• A research tool

Eribulin : questions?

Dual PTEN/P53 suppression promotes high grade

sarcomas by activating Notch

Eva Hernando, Ph.D.

CTOS 2013

Dual PTEN/TP53 suppression and sarcomagenesis

• Mutational profling of sarcoma patients

• Dual suppression in SMC

• P53-/+ & PTEN -/+

• HGUPS, LMS

• Activation of the Notch pathway, and sensitivity to GSI

Gamma-secretase　inhibition　suppresses　the　clonogenic　and　invasive　potential　of　tumor　cells

CTOS 2013

Sarcomagenesis: questions

• A relevant model for LMS/UPS subsets?

• Screen human tumors

• To reevaluate the role of GSI/Notch pathway modulators in vivo in the clinics?

– PFS2/PFS1

• Denominator?• From N of 1 to

prospective series with homogenous molecular diagnosis

NGS analysis

CTOS 2013

• Valuable strategy

• N of 1 trials methodology

• Guide research programs in larger patients sets

• Negative results also should be informative

• Difficult analysis when combinations are used

Theranostics : questions

CTOS 2013

Conclusions

• Four important reports

• Biomarkers and predictive factors for relapse and resistance are needed.

• Preclinical models to guide us for drug development.

• Translational research : biopsy and rebiopsy
