ABSTRACT
Background: Wood smoke exposure (WSE) has been associated with an increased risk of lung cancer development. WSE has been related with high frequency of EGFR mutations and low frequency of KRAS mutations. The aim of this study was to evaluate large scale genomic alterations in lung adenocarcinomas associated with WSE using targeted next generation sequencing.
Methods: DNA multi-targeted sequencing was performed in 42 fresh-frozen samples of advanced lung adenocarcinomas. The TruSeQ Cancer Panel (Illumina) was used for genomic library construction and sequencing assays.
Results: WSE rate was higher in women (p=0.037) and non-smokers (p=0.001). WSE correlated with mutations in the genes SMARCB1 (p=0.002), Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (p=0.004), Kinase Insert Domain Receptor (p=0.006), and were borderline significant in RET and EGFR exon. Genomic alterations significantly co-occurred in the tumor suppressor gene ATM with the following genes: SMARCB1, EGFR exon 7, RET and KDR. Clinical factors associated with poor prognosis were ECOG ≥ 2 (p= 0.014), mutations in KDR (p= 0.004) and APC genes (p < 0.001).
Conclusions: Lung adenocarcinoma patients with WSE showed a distinctive mutated profile for the SMARCB1, ATM, EGFR exon 7, RET and KDR genes. ECOG status and KDR gene mutations were significantly associated with poor prognosis.
