29 14 year old girl with GBM GBM Sequencing revealed c.1697dela frameshik muta&on in MSH2 transmited from her mother. MSH2 muta:ons are associated with increased risk of mul:ple cancers, including glioma. Cancer screening recommenda&ons made for pa:ent, mother and other MSH2 posi:ve family members

30 Muta:ons related to phenotype Mechanism N Genes Autosomal dominant Suspected clinically and ordered as part of care Not considered by clinical team but FH+ Autosomal recessive; single muta:on Diagnos:c for other medical problems 8 4 DICER1, VHL, TP53 x 2* 3 MSH2, BRCA1, BRCA2 1 WT1 (mosaic) 4 FANCL x 2, FANCA, MUTYH; Oncologist discre:on to pursue work- up further 3 TJP2 - Liver disease/hcc; CLCN5- renal disease; MNX1- neurologic disorders *One TP53 described as likely deleterious in text of report

32 Other common germline findings Median of 3 VUS in genes related to phenotype 98% carry at least one VUS in cancer genes Generally no further follow- up of these variants at this :me Median of 2 recessive carrier muta:ons Majority are very rare syndromes Only 2-3% carry muta:on in a gene on the ACMG popula:on screening list for recessive disorders Can iden:fy X- linked carrier status as well Median of 2 FDA pharmacogene:c variants

34 Conclusions Pipeline for clinical sequencing of pa:ent tumor and blood samples successfully established Muta:ons of poten:al clinical u:lity iden:fied by tumor/ germline WES in ~40% of pediatric solid tumors Diversity of muta:ons iden:fied suggests that genome- scale (or more pediatric- specific targeted) diagnos:c approaches may be favored The most useful genomic test (or combina:on of tests, e.g WES and RNAseq) remains to be proven Further characteriza:on of both temporal and intra- tumoral heterogeneity will be necessary

35 Looking forward There is significant pa:ent/family interest in these clinical genomic personalized approaches Specialized exper:se/training is necessary for informed consent and result repor:ng for clinical genomics Major interpre:ve challenges remain (the defini:on of ac:onable is a fairly loose one) It will be cri:cal to understand the preferences of physicians and families for repor:ng of genomic data For any given pa:ent the tumor or germline report may be more informa:ve Clinical trials are needed to test if clinical genomics will be beneficial for pediatric oncology pa:ents
