Overview: Early Detection through Genetic & Epidemiologic Tools Genetic Diagnostic Testing for Melanoma Gene Expression tools: Diagnostic Prognostic Epidemiologic Tools: War on Melanoma Community Registry Mole Mapper iphone App Other Technologies Fundamentally different than predisposition testing Purpose is to determine if a lesion is melanoma, not if the individual is at risk for melanoma Performed on tissue, not blood Provides adjunctive measure to complement histology in ambiguous cases Fluorescent In-Situ Hybridization (FISH) Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH) Two clinically available assays based on gene copy number Most studies on unambiguous lesions Sensitivity 87-94%; specificity 95-98% Less sensitivity in ambiguous lesions (43%) Subjective, requires specialized expertise Chromosomes: 6p25 (RREB1), 8q24 (MYC), 9p21 (CDKN2A/p16), 11q13 (CCND1), centromere (CEN9) Also detects chromosomal gains and losses Comparison between tumor DNA & control DNA to evaluate entire genome Sensitivity & specificity not as wellcharacterized Most studies done on unambiguous cases Some subjectivity, but less than FISH 1

2 Gene Expression Profiling (GEP): qrtpcr Comparison of Diagnostic Genetic Tests for Melanoma Evaluates expression of RNA rather than mutations in DNA Panel of 23 genes used Expression algorithm used to generate a score that falls into a benign or malignant range Objective and quantitative Advantages Limitations FISH CGH qrt-pcr Minimal tissue required; singlecell resolution; can detect translocations Visualizes tiny fraction of genome; expertise requirement Can assess all 23 chromosomes; no proficiency in fluorescent microscopy required Can t assess intratumoral heterogeneity; dilution by stroma Provides additional diagnostic value in discriminating benign vs malignant lesions New test, publications in progress; no correlation with outcome Genetic Prognostic Testing for Melanoma Gene Expression Profiling (GEP): qrtpcr Fundamentally different than predisposition or diagnostic testing Purpose is to determine if a lesion is likely to metastasize Performed on tissue, not blood Provides adjunctive measure to complement histologic (e.g. Breslow depth) and other prognostic (e.g. sentinel node biopsy) data Evaluates risk of recurrence for cutaneous melanoma patients Separates tumors into Class 1 (less risk) and Class 2 (more risk) High positive predictive value for Class 2 High negative predictive value for Class 1 Allows improved risk stratification that supports consideration of heightened follow-up (maybe adjuvant therapy in future) Hodi et al., 2010; Joseph et al., 2014; Lyle et al., 2014; Menzies et al., 2014; Nishino et al., 2014; Steinman et al., 2014; Del Vecchio et al., 2015; Kaufman et al., 2015; Tsai et al., 2015 Gene Expression Profiling (GEP): Class 1 & 2 and Risk of Recurrence Distant Metastasis Free Survival 100% 75% 50% Class 1 Putting It Together: An Integrated Approach for Melanoma Patients New ing Patient calls with concern Hx?
