BACKGROUND The development of next generation sequencing (NGS) based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) has enabled identification of druggable somatic mutations in brain tumours. This cohort reviewed the efficacy of CGP-guided precision treatment in a tertiary neuro-oncology centre. METHODOLOGY From May 2017 to May 2020, CGP were arranged for 43 patients. All patients had exhausted conventional treatments or received CGP for clinical trial screening. Targeted deep NGS was used to assess the mutational status, single nucleotide variant, small insertions and deletions and copy number variant of 440 cancer-related genes. RESULTS The diagnoses of the 43 patients were GBM (n=23), high grade glioma (n=11), brain metastases (n=4), chordoma (n=3), atypical choroid plexus papilloma (n=1) and meningioma (n=1). In most of the patients (42/43, 97.7%), CGP identified at least one druggable targets with a median of 3. Based on the CGP, 27 patients received precision treatment (62.7%). Among these, 14 were GBM and 6 were other high grade glioma. Treatment given included PARP inhibitors, immunotherapy, multi-kinase inhibitor, selective CDK4/6 inhibitor and mTOR inhibitor. Clinical benefit was achieved in 20 patients out of 27 (74%), including 2 complete response (7.4%), 9 partial response (33.3%) and 9 stable disease (33.3%). The median progression free survival (PFS) were 183 days [95% confident intervals (CI): 81–302 days]. For GBM/high grade glioma patients, median PFS was 125 days [95% CI: 52–215] and six-month PFS was 32.7%. Treatment toxicity was mild except two patients developed grade 3 complications and one grade 5 complication (fatal neutropenic fever). For the 16 patients who did not receive precision treatment, one had no druggable target identified, nine were still stable on standard therapies, 6 were too weak when CGP was available. CONCLUSION CGP guided precision treatment for selected, advanced neuro-oncological patients yielded modest clinical efficacy and satisfactory safety profile in real world setting.
