1 WHO 2016 CNS What have we learnt for the future? H.K. Ng Free ppt at Louis DN & Ellison DW et al., 2016 H K, how can we cope with the new molecular requirements in the WHO? Chitra Sarkar, India WHO Classification of CNS Tumors 2016 WHO 2016 has let the scientific world down Richard Gilbertson, ISPNO June 2016 We are ten years ahead of WHO Martin van den Bent, EANO Oct 2016

2 A dinosaur? A beginning not an end Inter-observer variability in histology Histology review of a major EORTC trial on anaplastic oligodendrolgial tumour (Kros JNEN 2007) 114 tumours reviewed by 9 international experts Five out of 9 pathologists agree with the consensus diagnosis (6 out of 9) less than 60% of times Aldape K et al., 2000 Kros JM et al., 2007

Acta Neuropathologica 2010 I-A ATRX+IDH1 I-CF : ATRX/1p19q/CIC/FUBP1 (either Jiao et al WHO 2016 Molecular pathology is required in addition to histology In China and Hong Kong, have we met WHO criteria? Have we met criteria for standard of care? Martin van den Bent Leading EORTC neuro-oncologist All the hardware and techniques for meeting WHO criteria are in the regional hospitals One pathologist a diagnosis Two pathologists an argument Three pathologists chaos Problems with pathology departments Understanding needs of brain tumor patients We have to work hard to make them understand

4 Aims of providing molecular information Classification/Diagnosis Prognostication Prediction to treatment Further use of molecular biomarkers Development of further biomarkers Identification of treatment targets Genomics of drug sensitivity Tumor heterogeneity Liquid biopsies Tumor aetiology Clonal selection WHO classification 2016 Louis DN & Ellison DW et al., 2016

13 Target sequencing for cancer From a private lab in Hong Kong Procedures of NanoString ncounter Technologies Step 1: RNA is extracted from FFPE tissue. Step 2: Capture and reporter probes are hybridized to target RNA in solution. -gene-specific reporter probes are labeled with different combination of fluorochromes. Example of raw data generated by the nanostring ncounter Technologies -Contains positive & negative controls, 22 subgroupspecific genes, and 3 housekeeping genes. Detection of large number gene signature is achieved through the use of different combination of fluorochromes (barcode). Step 3: Hybrids are immobilized on cartridge. Positive hybridization controls Negative hybridization controls cartridge Step 4: Probes are aligned and read by imaging system.
