GRAIL, Menlo Park, CA 94402 USA Background ctDNA assays can noninvasively assess tumor burden and biology by identifying tumor-derived somatic alterations To date, ctDNA studies have focused primarily on detecting driver mutations to inform treatment strategies in advanced disease or monitoring disease burden in patients with established cancer diagnoses. Platforms used for these purposes target individual variants or limited genomic regions informed by sequencing of tumor tissue. (Wan 2017) Analysis of plasma cell-free DNA may enable early cancer detection in previously undiagnosed individuals but will require de novo variant calling (in the absence of tissue) as well as sufficient genomic coverage to address the spectrum of variant profiles that are cancer-defining. (Aravanis 2017) We propose that a high-intensity approach (ultra-deep sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA with broad genomic coverage) will add a new dimension to our understanding of intra-patient and population-level heterogeneity. Objectives Assess concordance of variants detected in tissue with MSK-IMPACT™ versus detected in plasma cell-free DNA. Assess the cell-free DNA variant detection rate based on observing at least one MSK- IMPACT™ tissue variant in the same patient. Assess concordance using tissue as a reference according to: - Clinical actionability - Clonality Methods: Patient Population Metastatic breast, lung, or prostate cancer, either de novo or with progressive disease on current therapy. All patients have provided written informed consent to an MSK institutional protocol (NCT01775072) allowing research of cfDNA and clinical tumor sequencing. Blood and tissue were prospectively collected within 6 weeks of each other with no intervening therapy change. - Two tubes of blood collected in Streck. - Tissue from surgical resection or biopsy. Blood and tissue were analyzed independently and blinded to the results of each. Results: Patient Disposition Methods: Analysis cfDNA variant calling pipeline • The variant calling pipeline includes the following steps: - Read alignment, error correction (consisting of read collapsing by position and UMI, as well as stitching paired reads), de novo assembly, variant calling, and variant filtering. - Variants are filtered using two approaches (1) heuristics applied based on the surrounding sequence context and type and quality of reads supporting the variant and (2) empirical noise levels observed in a set of healthy samples. - Blood samples from an independent cohort of 24 non-cancer (self-reported) individuals (vendor sourced) were used to set a baseline noise level in this study. - Variant calls are further filtered using matching WBC for each patient. - Bioinformatics filters included removing non-COSMIC dbSNP variants as well as restricting to protein coding regions. MSK tissue variant calling pipeline has been described extensively in the past (Cheng 2015, Zehir 2017) FACETS algorithm and clonality analysis: To classify the variants identified in tissue into clonal and subclonal mutations, the cancer cell fraction (CCF) was calculated based on mutant variant allele frequency (VAF) adjusting for tumor purity, ploidy, and local allele-specific copy number obtained from the FACETS algorithm (Shen 2016). Exact confidence intervals (CI) were calculated around the point estimate of CCF: - Mutations with lower bound of 95% CI ≥75% were classified as “clonal”. - Mutations with CCF ≥ 80% and lower bound of 95% CI below 75% were classified as “likely clonal”. - Mutations with CCF < 80% and lower bound of 95% CI below 75% were classified as “subclonal”. Statistical Methods Only regions covered by both panels were used for concordance analysis and synonymous variants were excluded from the concordance analysis since they are not called by the MSK-IMPACT™ pipeline. Concordance is calculated as positive percent agreement (PPA) with tissue as a reference (cfDNA/tissue). Methods: Sample Workflows and Assays Results: Per Patient Variant Detection | Primary Analysis – Independent cfDNA and Tissue Assessment Actionable Mutations in Tissue and Plasma Consistency of Mutational Signature | APOBEC Hypermutation in Both Tissue and Plasma Patient mutational signatures were identified by deconvolving the observed triplet mutation profile of patients using constrained linear regression onto COSMIC mutational signatures (Alexandrov 2013). Patients with evidence for signatures compatible with APOBEC hypermutation were prioritized for cfDNA signature analysis. Seven patients (6 breast, 1 prostate) exhibited evidence for increased signature 2 and/or 13 in both tissue and plasma, which are both associated with APOBEC hypermutation; Two patients (MSK-VB-0023 and MSK-VB-0046) shown here.

In the majority of patients, at least one mutation detected in tissue was also detected in plasma cfDNA of that same patient (97%, 85%, and 84% in breast, lung, and prostate cancer patients). • Post-hoc analysis focused on the subset of patients with clonal variants in tissue: - Based on de-novo variant calls, at least one clonal mutation was detected in cfDNA: 97%, 84%, and 83% in breast, lung, and prostate cancer patients. The majority of clinically actionable mutations detected in tissue were also detected in plasma (54/71, 76%; SNVs only: 28/31, 90%). • The breadth of detected variants in plasma cfDNA enables greater insight into tumor biology, including observation of hypermutation signatures. Conclusions • This novel, high-intensity cell-free DNA sequencing assay incorporates unprecedented breadth (10X number of genes) compared to previous assays at these sequencing depths, and demonstrated high levels of concordance for both clonal and non-clonal variants between plasma and tissue. • By interpreting concordance as strong evidence for tumor DNA detection, an extremely high level of tumor DNA detection in plasma was demonstrated. • Clinically actionable non-biopsy somatic alterations were detected, which may represent tumor heterogeneity not detectable in a single tissue biopsy. Ongoing work is being conducted to distinguish technical noise from the assay and biological signal for the variants detected in plasma but not in tissue. The breadth of the panel enabled the first exploration of mutational signature analysis in plasma, revealing samples with APOBEC signatures. • This study is part of a larger program to evaluate high- intensity sequencing approaches (e.g. whole genome) to characterize potential cancer-defining signals in cell-free nucleic acids, with an ultimate goal of enabling detection of cancer at early curable stages.

Background• ctDNA assays can noninvasively assess

tumor burden and biology by identifying tumor-derived somatic alterations

• To date, ctDNA studies have focused primarily on detecting driver mutations to inform treatment strategies in advanced disease or monitoring disease burden in patients with established cancer diagnoses. Platforms used for these purposes target individual variants or limited genomic regions informed by sequencing of tumor tissue. (Wan 2017)

• Analysis of plasma cell-free DNA may enable early cancer detection in previously undiagnosed individuals but will require de novo variant calling (in the absence of tissue) as well as sufficient genomic coverage to address the spectrum of variant profiles that are cancer-defining. (Aravanis 2017)

• We propose that a high-intensity approach (ultra-deep sequencing of plasma cell-free DNA with broad genomic coverage) will add a new dimension to our understanding of intra-patient and population-level heterogeneity.

Objectives• Assess concordance of variants detected in

tissue with MSK-IMPACT™ versus detected in plasma cell-free DNA.

• Assess the cell-free DNA variant detection rate based on observing at least one MSK-IMPACT™ tissue variant in the same patient.

• Assess concordance using tissue as a reference according to:

- Clinical actionability - Clonality

Methods: Patient Population• Metastatic breast, lung, or prostate cancer,

either de novo or with progressive disease on current therapy.

• All patients have provided written informed consent to an MSK institutional protocol (NCT01775072) allowing research of cfDNA and clinical tumor sequencing.

• Blood and tissue were prospectively collected within 6 weeks of each other with no intervening therapy change.

- Two tubes of blood collected in Streck. - Tissue from surgical resection or biopsy.

• Blood and tissue were analyzed independently and blinded to the results of each.

Results: Patient Disposition

Methods: AnalysiscfDNA variant calling pipeline• The variant calling pipeline includes the following steps:

- Read alignment, error correction (consisting of read collapsing by position and UMI, as well as stitching paired reads), de novo assembly, variant calling, and variant filtering.

- Variants are filtered using two approaches (1) heuristics applied based on the surrounding sequence context and type and quality of reads supporting the variant and (2) empirical noise levels observed in a set of healthy samples.

- Blood samples from an independent cohort of 24 non-cancer (self-reported) individuals (vendor sourced) were used to set a baseline noise level in this study.

- Variant calls are further filtered using matching WBC for each patient. - Bioinformatics filters included removing non-COSMIC dbSNP variants as well as restricting to protein coding regions.

MSK tissue variant calling pipeline has been described extensively in the past (Cheng 2015, Zehir 2017)

FACETS algorithm and clonality analysis:• To classify the variants identified in tissue into clonal and subclonal mutations, the cancer cell fraction (CCF) was

calculated based on mutant variant allele frequency (VAF) adjusting for tumor purity, ploidy, and local allele-specific copy number obtained from the FACETS algorithm (Shen 2016).

• Exact confidence intervals (CI) were calculated around the point estimate of CCF: - Mutations with lower bound of 95% CI ≥75% were classified as “clonal”. - Mutations with CCF ≥ 80% and lower bound of 95% CI below 75% were classified as “likely clonal”. - Mutations with CCF < 80% and lower bound of 95% CI below 75% were classified as “subclonal”.

Statistical Methods• Only regions covered by both panels were used for concordance analysis and synonymous variants were excluded from

the concordance analysis since they are not called by the MSK-IMPACT™ pipeline.• Concordance is calculated as positive percent agreement (PPA) with tissue as a reference (cfDNA/tissue).

Methods: Sample Workflows and Assays Results: Per Patient Variant Detection | Primary Analysis – Independent cfDNA and Tissue Assessment

Actionable Mutations in Tissue and Plasma

Consistency of Mutational Signature | APOBEC Hypermutation in Both Tissue and Plasma

• Patient mutational signatures were identified by deconvolving the observed triplet mutation profile of patients using constrained linear regression onto COSMIC mutational signatures (Alexandrov 2013). Patients with evidence for signatures compatible with APOBEC hypermutation were prioritized for cfDNA signature analysis.

• Seven patients (6 breast, 1 prostate) exhibited evidence for increased signature 2 and/or 13 in both tissue and plasma, which are both associated with APOBEC hypermutation; Two patients (MSK-VB-0023 and MSK-VB-0046) shown here.

Post-hoc Analysis | Association between Cancer Cell Fraction (CCF) in Tumor and Detection Rate in Plasma

• Clonal variants in tissue were more likely to be detected in plasma than subclonal variants (p<.0001).• The greater the representation of cancer cell fraction (CCF) from FACETS in the tumor, the higher the detection in plasma.

Post-hoc Analysis on Clonal Mutations

Pooled Variant Detection | Primary Analysis – Independent cfDNA and Tissue Assessment

PPA = positive percent agreement with tissue as a reference (cfDNA/tissue)In tissue, pooled across patients, 864 variants were detected across the 3 tumor types, with 627 (73%) also detected in plasma: single nucleotide variants/indels - 75%, fusions - 67%, and copy number alterations - 58%. * For breast and lung cancer, defined based on OncoKB, precision knowledge base maintained at MSKCC. In breast cancer, variants known to contribute to progression, level 1, 2, or 3 evidence. In lung cancer, variants shown to predict sensitivity or resistance to targeted therapy, level 1 or 2 evidence. In prostate cancer, variants shown to contribute to progression (Chang 2015, Robinson 2015).

All Variants (SNV, indels, CNA, Fusions) SNV/ indels ONLY Clinically Actionable Mutations*

Summary • Tumor tissue variants identified by MSK-IMPACT™,

a validated tumor tissue profiling platform, enabled a demonstration of high overall detection rates (>70%) of the same variants in cfDNA.

• In the majority of patients, at least one mutation detected in tissue was also detected in plasma cfDNA of that same patient (97%, 85%, and 84% in breast, lung, and prostate cancer patients).

• Post-hoc analysis focused on the subset of patients with clonal variants in tissue:

- Based on de-novo variant calls, at least one clonal mutation was detected in cfDNA: 97%, 84%, and 83% in breast, lung, and prostate cancer patients.

• The majority of clinically actionable mutations detected in tissue were also detected in plasma (54/71, 76%; SNVs only: 28/31, 90%).

• The breadth of detected variants in plasma cfDNA enables greater insight into tumor biology, including observation of hypermutation signatures.

Conclusions• This novel, high-intensity cell-free DNA sequencing

assay incorporates unprecedented breadth (10X number of genes) compared to previous assays at these sequencing depths, and demonstrated high levels of concordance for both clonal and non-clonal variants between plasma and tissue.

• By interpreting concordance as strong evidence for tumor DNA detection, an extremely high level of tumor DNA detection in plasma was demonstrated.

• Clinically actionable non-biopsy somatic alterations were detected, which may represent tumor heterogeneity not detectable in a single tissue biopsy. Ongoing work is being conducted to distinguish technical noise from the assay and biological signal for the variants detected in plasma but not in tissue.

• The breadth of the panel enabled the first exploration of mutational signature analysis in plasma, revealing samples with APOBEC signatures.

• This study is part of a larger program to evaluate high-intensity sequencing approaches (e.g. whole genome) to characterize potential cancer-defining signals in cell-free nucleic acids, with an ultimate goal of enabling detection of cancer at early curable stages.
