Abstract LB190: DNAscopeTM: A novel chromogenic in-situ hybridization technology for high-resolution detection of DNA copy number and structural variations

Molecular and Cellular Biology/Genetics

2021 Jul 01

Genomic DNA anomalies such as copy number variations (gene duplication, amplification, deletion) and gene rearrangements are important biomarkers and drug targets in many cancer types. DNA in-situ hybridization (ISH) is the gold standard method to directly visualize these molecular alterations in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissues at single-cell resolution within a histological section. However, currently available fluorescent ISH (FISH) assays provide limited morphological detail due to the use of fluorescent nuclear staining compared to chromogenic staining. Furthermore, FISH techniques rely on expensive fluorescence microscopes, risk loss of fluorescent signal over time and involve tedious imaging at high magnifications (100X). There is thus an unmet need for a sensitive and robust chromogenic DNA-ISH assay that can enable high-resolution detection of genomic DNA targets with the ease of bright-field microscopy. We present here DNAscope - a novel chromogenic DNA-ISH assay - for detecting and visualizing genomic DNA targets under a standard light microscope. DNAscope is based on the widely used RNAscope double-Z probe design and signal amplification technology and provides unparalleled sensitivity and specificity with large signal dots readily visualized at 40X magnification and with full morphological context. Furthermore, DNAscope ensures specific DNA detection without interference from RNA due to the use of a novel RNA removal method. Using a duplex chromogenic detection assay in red and blue, we demonstrate highly specific and efficient detection of gene rearrangements (ALK, ROS1, RET and NTRK1), gene amplification (ERBB2, EGFR, MET) and deletion (TP53 and CDKN2A). The DNAscope assay has been carefully optimized for probe signal size and color contrast to enable easy interpretation of signal patterns under conventional light microscopy or digital pathology. Compared to conventional FISH assays, DNAscope probes are standard oligos that are designed in silico to be free of any repetitive sequences and can be rapidly synthesized for any DNA target. In conclusion, the DNAscope assay provides a powerful and convenient alternative to commonly used FISH assays in many cancer research applications.
HPV RNA CISH score identifies two prognostic groups in a p16 positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma population

HPV-related and HPV-unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas are two distinct entities according to the Union for International Cancer Control, with a better prognosis conferred to HPV-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas. However, variable clinical outcomes are observed among patients with p16 positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, which is a surrogate marker of HPV infection. We aimed to investigate the prognostic value of RNA CISH against E6 and E7 transcripts (HPV RNA CISH) to predict such variability. We retrospectively included 50 histologically confirmed p16 positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (p16 positive immunostaining was defined by a strong staining in 70% or more of tumor cells). HPV RNA CISH staining was assessed semi-quantitatively to define two scores: RNA CISH “low” and RNA CISH “high”. Negative HPV RNA CISH cases were scored as RNA CISH “low”. This series contained 29 RNA CISH low cases (58%) and 21 RNA CISH high cases (42%). Clinical and pathologic baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups. RNA CISH high staining was associated with a better overall survival in both univariate and multivariate analyses (p = 0.033 and p = 0.042, respectively). Other recorded parameters had no prognostic value. In conclusion, HPV RNA CISH might be an independent prognostic marker in p16 positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas and might help guide therapeutics.

Abstract

Background

Accurate identification of HPV-driven oropharyngeal cancer (OPC) is a major issue and none of the current diagnostic approaches is ideal. An in situ hybridization (ISH) assay that detects high-risk HPV E6/E7 mRNA, called the RNAscope HPV-test, has been recently developed. Studies have suggested that this assay may become a standard to define HPV-status.

Methods

To further assess this test, we compared its performance against the strategies that are used in routine clinical practice: p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) as a single test and algorithms combining p16-IHC with HPV-DNA identification by PCR (algorithm-1) or ISH (algorithm-2).

Results

105 OPC specimens were analyzed. The prevalence of HPV-positive samples varied considerably: 67% for p16-IHC, 54% for algorithm-1, 61% for algorithm-2 and 59% for the RNAscope HPV-test. Discrepancies between the RNAscope HPV-test and p16-IHC, algorithm-1 and 2 were noted in respectively 13.3%, 13.1%, and 8.6%.

The 4 diagnostic strategies were able to identify 2 groups with different prognosis according to HPV-status, as expected. However, the greater survival differential was observed with the RNAscope HPV-test [HR: 0.19, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.07–0.51, p = 0.001] closely followed by algorithm-1 (HR: 0.23, 95% CI, 0.08–0.66, p = 0.006) and algorithm-2 (HR: 0.26, 95% CI, 0.1–0.65, p = 0.004). In contrast, a weaker association was found when p16-IHC was used as a single test (HR: 0.33, 95% CI, 0.13–0.81, p = 0.02).

Conclusions

Our findings suggest that the RNAscope HPV-test and p16-based algorithms perform better that p16 alone to identify OPC that are truly driven by HPV-infection. The RNAscope HPV-test has the advantage of being a single test.

Spindle Cell Carcinomas of the Head and Neck Rarely Harbor Transcriptionally-Active Human Papillomavirus.

Head and neck pathology, ;7(3):250–257.

Spindle cell carcinoma is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma characterized by spindled or pleomorphic cells which appear to be a true sarcoma but are actually epithelial. Some head and neck squamous cell carcinoma variants can be human papillomavirus (HPV)-related and have improved outcomes. We sought to determine if spindle cell carcinomas are associated with transcriptionally-active HPV. Cases of spindle cell carcinoma were retrieved from department files. Transcriptionally-active HPV was determined by mRNA in situ hybridization for high risk HPV E6 and E7 transcripts and by a surrogate marker, p16 immunohistochemistry, with a 50% staining cutoff. RT-PCR for high risk HPV mRNA was performed on the cases that were technical failures by in situ hybridization. Medical records and follow up information were retrieved for all patients. Of 31 cases, 5 were from the oropharynx, 12 from the oral cavity, and 14 from the larynx or hypopharynx. One purely spindled oral cavity spindle cell carcinoma was HPV positive. It was also diffusely positive for p16. Another laryngeal spindle cell carcinoma was HPV positive in both the squamous and spindle cell components, but was negative for p16. None of the five oropharyngeal spindle cell carcinomas were positive for p16 or HPV RNA. The HPV positive patients both presented at high stage (IV) and died with disease within 2 years of diagnosis. The majority of spindle cell carcinomas of the head and neck, including those arising in the oropharynx, are not related to transcriptionally active HPV. Although the number of cases is too small for any definitive conclusions, for the rare HPV positive spindle cell carcinoma cases, positive viral status does not appear to confer any prognostic benefit.

Abstract

BACKGROUND:

There is increasing evidence that high-risk human papillomavirus plays significant role in oropharyngeal cancer; however, there is lack of knowledge on the interplay between the virus and its downstream related molecules and their possible prognostic values. The objectives of the study are to better understand the interplay of the HR-HPV and its associated downstream molecules and to evaluate potential biomarkers for patient outcomes.

METHODS:

We conducted a retrospective study with available formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue from 244 oropharyngeal cancer patients that received curative radiotherapy or concurrent chemoradiotherapy from 2000 to 2008. In addition to chart review, we performed HPV DNA and RNA in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry for p53, the retinoblastoma protein, p16, and cyclin D1 analysis. Cox-proportional hazard and Kaplan-Meier survival analysis were used to determine the prognostic markers for clinical outcomes.

RESULTS:

Patients averaged 57.3±9.4 year-old and were mostly males (76.2%) and ever-smokers (76.2%). All patients received curative radiotherapy and 44.3% received concurrent chemoradiotherapy. We detected the human papillomavirus in 77.9% of study patients. Ever-smokers, more advanced tumor stage, and receiving radiotherapy only had poorer 5-year overall survival, disease-specific survival, and loco-regional recurrence. Cases with positive human papillomavirus and p53 overexpression had poorer disease-specific survival. Cases without human papillomavirus, but cyclin D1 overexpression, was associated with poorer 5-year overall survival.

CONCLUSIONS:

Our data suggests that additional p53 and cyclin D1 testing may benefit oropharyngeal cancer patients with known human papillomavirus status.

The aim of this study is comparing two in situ hybridization (ISH) detection methods for human papilloma virus (HPV) 16 E6/E7 mRNA, i.e. the RNAscope™ 2.0 High Definition (HD) and the upgraded RNAscope™ 2.5 HD version. The RNAscope™ 2.5 HD has recently replaced the RNAscope™ 2.0 HD detection kit. Therefore, this investigation starts from the need to analytically validate the new mRNA ISH assay and, possibly, to refine the current algorithm for HPV detection in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with the final goal to apply it to daily laboratory practice. The study was based on HPV status and on generated data, interpreted by a scoring algorithm. The results highlighted that the compared RNAscope HPV tests had a good level of interchangeability and enabled to identify OSCC that are truly driven by high risk-HPV infection. This was also supported by the comparison of the RNAscope HPV test with HPV E6/E7 mRNA real time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), in a fraction of cases where material for HPV E6/E7 mRNA real time RT-PCR was available. Furthermore, the algorithm that associates p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) with the identification of HPV mRNA by RNAscope was more effective than the one that associated p16 IHC with the identification of HPV DNA by ISH.

Abstract: Background: The recognition of tumor infection by human papilloma virus (HPV) in oropharyngeal squamous-cell carcinoma (OSCC) is emerging as a valid biomarker to more accurate selection of patients for specific treatment, surveillance and tumor staging. To this aim, the HPV detection strategy in OSCC must dissect between HPV that is acting as a driver of malignant transformation, and transcriptionally silent virus involved in productive infection. The aim of this study is to define the better method for the accurate identification of HPV status among OSCC. Patients and Methods: Thirty-six patients were selected for HPV status assessment combining different methods, such as immunohistochemistry (IHC) for p16, in-situ hybridization (ISH) for high risk (HR)-HPV DNA and HR-HPV E6/E7 mRNA along with real-time PCR of HPV16 E6/E7 mRNA. All these cases were originally classified as HPV negative by DNA-based ISH but p16 positive by the IHC. Results: Twenty-six cases showed concordance between methods; whereas, nine cases resulted negative for HPV E6/E7 mRNA RT-PCR but positive for HPV E6/E7 mRNA ISH. Conclusion: By considering that the bright field HPV E6/E7 mRNA ISH could be more sensitive than mRNA-based real-time RT-PCR, and that it provides the precise identification of transcriptionally active HPV infected cells, a randomized analysis to validate the robustness of this preliminary assay will be undertaken.

HPV-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma (HMSC) is associated with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection. Using HR-HPV mRNA in situ hybridization (ISH), we reported six new HMSC cases and compared their histopathology with that of sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC). Using p16 immunohistochemistry (IHC) and HR-HPV ISH, we retrospectively identified six HMSC cases. All HMSC cases were positive for HR-HPV mRNA ISH and p16 IHC. Two HMSC cases had overlying atypical squamous epithelium and one also had invasive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). All HMSC were SOX10-positive whereas the overlying atypical squamous epithelium and the SCC were SOX10-negative. One atypical HMSC-like case was also identified which was positive for HR-HPV mRNA ISH, HR-HPV DNA ISH, SOX10 IHC, but negative for p16 IHC. This study showed that HR-HPV mRNA ISH was a useful tool to diagnose HMSC and had stronger signals than HR-HPV DNA ISH. HR-HPV E6/E7 mRNA could be identified in the overlying atypical squamous epithelium as well as the invasive SCC. A combination of p16 and SOX10 IHC will be a useful screening panel for HMSC followed by confirmatory HR-HPV mRNA ISH test.

Persistence of Human Papillomavirus, Overexpression of p53, and Outcomes of Patients After Endoscopic Ablation of Barrett's Esophagus.

Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2014 Nov 21.

Rajendra S, Wang B, Pavey D, Sharma P, Yang T, Lee CS, Gupta N, Ball MJ, Gill RS, Wu X.

We investigated the role of high-risk human papillomavirus (hr-HPV) in patients with Barrett's dysplasia and adenocarcinoma (EAC). Clearance vs persistence of HPV (DNA, E6 or E7 mRNA, and p16INK4A protein) and overexpression or mutation of p53 were determined for 40 patients who underwent endotherapy for Barrett's dysplasia or EAC. After ablation, dysplasia or neoplasia was eradicated in 34 subjects (24 squamous, 10 intestinal metaplasia). Six patients had detectable lesions after treatment; 2 were positive for transcriptionally active hr-HPV, and 4 had overexpression of p53. Before endotherapy, 15 patients had biologically active hr-HPV, 13 cleared the infection with treatment, and dysplasia or EAC was eliminated from 12 patients. One patient who cleared HPV after ablation acquired a p53 mutation, and their cancer progressed. Of 13 patients with overexpression of p53 before treatment, 10 cleared the p53 abnormality after ablation with eradication of dysplasia or neoplasia, whereas 3 of 13 had persistent p53 mutation-associated dysplasia after endotherapy (P = .004). Immunohistochemical and sequence analyses of p53 produced concordant results for 36 of 40 samples (90%). Detection of dysplasia or neoplasia after treatment was associated with HPV persistence or continued p53 overexpression.

Cellular senescence is the irreversible arrest of normally dividing cells and is driven by the cell cycle inhibitors Cdkn2a, Cdkn1a, and Trp53. Senescent cells are implicated in chronic diseases and tissue repair through their increased secretion of pro-inflammatory factors known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Here, we use spatial transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) to demonstrate that cells displaying senescent characteristics are "transiently" present within regenerating skeletal muscle and within the muscles of D2-mdx mice, a model of Muscular Dystrophy. Following injury, multiple cell types including macrophages and fibrog-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) upregulate senescent features such as senescence pathway genes, SASP factors, and senescence-associated beta-gal (SA-β-gal) activity. Importantly, when these cells were removed with ABT-263, a senolytic compound, satellite cells are reduced, and muscle fibers were impaired in growth and myonuclear accretion. These results highlight that an "acute" senescent phenotype facilitates regeneration similar to skin and neonatal myocardium.

Abstract

IMPORTANCE:

Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes an increasing proportion of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCCs), particularly in white men. The prevalence of HPV among other demographic groups and other anatomic sites of HNSCC is unclear.

OBJECTIVE:

To explore the role of HPV tumor status among women and nonwhites with OPSCC and patients with nonoropharyngeal head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (non-OP HNSCC).

DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:

Retrospective cohort study at 2 tertiary academic centers including cases diagnosed 1995 through 2012, oversampled for minorities and females. A stratified random sample of 863 patients with newly diagnosed SCC of the oral cavity, oropharynx, larynx, or nasopharynx was used.

MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES:

Outcomes were HPV status as measured by p16 immunohistochemical analysis, HPV16 DNA in situ hybridization (ISH), and high-risk HPV E6/E7 mRNA ISH.

RESULTS:

Of 863 patients, 551 (63.9%) were male and median age was 58 years (interquartile range, 51-68 years). Among 240 OPSCCs, 144 (60%) were p16 positive (p16+), 115 (48%) were HPV16 DNA ISH positive (ISH16+), and 134 (56%) were positive for any oncogenic HPV type (ISH+). From 1995 to 2012, the proportion of p16+ OPSCC increased significantly among women (from 29% to 77%; P = .005 for trend) and men (36% to 72%; P < .001 for trend), as well as among whites (39% to 86%; P < .001 for trend) and nonwhites (32% to 62%; P = .02 for trend). Similar results were observed for ISH+ OPSCC (P ≤ .01 for all). Among 623 non-OP HNSCCs, a higher proportion were p16+ compared with ISH positive (62 [10%] vs 30 [5%]; P = .001). A high proportion (26 of 62 [42%]) of these p16+ non-OP HNSCCs were found in sites adjacent to the oropharynx. The proportion of p16+ and ISH+ non-OP HNSCCs were similar by sex. Over time, the proportion of non-OP HNSCCs that were p16+ (or ISH+) increased among whites (P = .04 for trend) but not among nonwhites (each P > .51 for trend). Among OPSCCs, p16 had high sensitivity (100%), specificity (91%), and positive (93%) and negative predictive value (100%) for ISH positivity. In non-OP HNSCCs, p16 had lower sensitivity (83%) and positive predictive value (40%) but high specificity (94%) and negative predictive value (99%) for ISH positivity.

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE:

During 1995 through 2012, the proportion of OPSCCs caused by HPV has increased significantly. This increase was not restricted to white men but was a consistent trend for women and men, as well as for white and nonwhite racial groups. Few non-OP HNSCCs were HPV related. P16 positivity was a good surrogate for ISH+ tumor status among OPSCC, but not a good surrogate for non-OP HNSCC.

Background

Oropharyngeal cancers associated with high-risk type human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection have better prognosis than virus negative cancers. Similarly, the HPV status in laryngeal cancer (LC) may be associated with better outcome.

Methods

Samples from 88 patients with LC were investigated using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and p16 immunohistochemistry for HR-HPV analysis. The cut-off point for p16 overexpression was diffuse (≥75%) tumor expression with at least moderate (+ 2/3) staining intensity.

Results

The 5-year cumulative survival (CS) rate was 80.7% in all patients with LC. According to a combination of HR-HPV DNA status and p16 overexpression, subjects with LC were divided into four groups: HR-HPV DNA-positive/p16 overexpression-positive (n = 5, 5.7%; CS = 100%), HR-HPV DNA-positive/p16 overexpression-negative (n = 11, 12.5%; CS =81.8%), HR-HPV DNA-negative/p16 overexpression-positive (n = 0), and HR-HPV DNA-negative/p16 overexpression-negative (n = 72, 81.8%; CS = 79.5%). HR-HPV DNA-positive/p16-positive cases tended to have integrated HPV infection and high viral load, compared with HR-HPV DNA-positive/p16 overexpression-negative cases.

Conclusions

LC patients with HPV infection and high levels of p16 expression might have an improved survival outcome; however, it is necessary to recruit additional LC cases with HPV infection to determine the definitive characteristics of HPV-mediated LC and estimate survival outcome. These results may contribute to the development of a useful method for selecting patients with a potentially fair response to treatment and ensure laryngeal preservation.
