Chromosome 8q arm overexpression is associated with worse prostate cancer prognosis
Urologic Oncology: Seminars and Original Investigations(2023)
摘要
Chromosome 8q arm (chr8q) is the most amplified chromosomal segment in advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer after chXq12. These regions harbor important oncogenes driving prostate cancer progression, including MYC that plays a role in various hallmarks of cancer, including cell cycle progression and immune surveillance. Herein we characterize the co-expression patterns of chr8q genes and their clinical utility in more than 7,000 radical prostatectomy samples.Copy Number alterations of 336 genes on chr8q21 to chr8q24 were extracted from 2 primary prostate cancer cohorts (TCGA, n = 492; MSK-primary, n = 856) and 3 metastatic prostate cancer cohorts (MSK-met, N = 432; MSK-mCSPC, N = 424; SU2CPNAS, n = 444) from cBioPortal. Expression data for the 336 genes was extracted from 6,135 radical prostatectomy samples from Decipher GRID registry. For survival analysis, patients were grouped into top 10% and top 25% by band expression and were compared with the remaining cohort. Hazard ratios were calculated using Cox proportional hazards models.Genes on chr8q were highly co-amplified and co-expressed. Copy number alterations and overexpression of chr8q genes in primary disease were associated with higher Gleason scores, increased risk of metastases, and increased prostate cancer specific mortality. Additionally, our data demonstrated high expression of MYC alone was not associated with differences in metastases free survival while high expression of other chr8q bands was associated with decreased metastases free survival. By combining chr8q data with an established genomic classifier like Decipher, we were able to develop a new model that was better at predicting metastases than Decipher alone.Our findings highlight the clinical utility of chr8q data, which can be used to improve prognostication and risk prediction in localized prostate cancer.
