e20511 Background: Smoking and air pollution are the major causes of lung cancer; however, numerous studies have demonstrated that genetic factors also contribute to the development of lung cancer. Here, we reported an analysis of genomic features in 65 lung cancer patients with autosomal-dominant or autosomal-recessive inheritance of germline mutations. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed next-generation sequencing data of 26,904 lung cancer patients in a Chinese cohort. The germline mutation patterns, as well as the co-occurrence with somatic driver mutations were analyzed. Results: A total of 65 (0.24%) patients with heterozygous germline mutations associated with hereditary cancer syndromes were detected, including 27 (0.10%) patients with autosomal-dominant inheritance (BRCA1, BRCA2, RET and TP53) and 38 (0.14%) patients with autosomal-recessive inheritance (ATM, BLM, FANCA, FANCG, MUTYH, NBN, RECQL4 and WRN). Comparing to patients with autosomal-dominant inheritance (Age 56±17.8), patients with autosomal-recessive inheritance (Age 65±11.7, P = 0.009) were older, and there is no gender difference. Additionally, 66.7% (18/27) of patients with autosomal-dominant inheritance were identified co-mutated actionable variations, such as 12 patients harboring mutations in exon 18–21 of EGFR, 2 patients harboring ERBB2 exon 20 insertions, 3 patients harboring mutations in exon 2 of KRAS and 1 patient harboring EML4-ALK fusion. The coexistence of germline autosomal-dominant mutations and somatic driver mutations indicated that germline mutations have weak impact on lung cancer. Simultaneously, 52.6% (20/38) of patients with autosomal-recessive inheritance were identified co-mutated actionable variations, such as 15 EGFR+ patients, 2 ERBB2+ patients and 3 KRAS+ patients. And there was no significant difference in population frequency of co-mutated actionable variations between the two groups. Conclusions: In summary, studies on germline mutations of lung cancer patients may help to elucidate the etiology and mechanism of lung cancer, and may help for early detection and diagnosis, targeted therapy and improved prevention strategies.

e13039 Background: Familial lung cancer is rare. Previous studies have identified random EGFR mutations associated with the inherited lung cancer. Reports also show that TP53 and CDKN2A mutations may predispose individuals to lung cancer, and MUC16 plays important roles in tumorigenesis and metastasis of lung cancer cells through regulating TP53. However, the molecular findings of familial lung cancer are still few. Methods: We have identified an extremely rare family, four siblings diagnosed with lung adenocarcinomas and one with bladder cancer; all lung cancer patients had multiple synchronous nodules. Their father was also lung cancer patient and deceased. We extracted tumor tissue DNA, genomic DNA (gDNA) and circulating cell-free DNA (ctDNA) from the 5 patients and analyzed the DNA samples using a 500-gene next generation sequencing (NGS) panel. Results: TP53 P72R and other 3 CDKN2B-AS1 germline mutations were identified in all the 5 patients. Although the 3 CDKN2B-AS1 mutations are commonly occurred in population according to dbSNP, these observations are consistent with a hypothesis that TP53 P72R and the CDKN2B-AS1 germline mutants may synergize in predisposing the family members to cancer. Interestingly, 3 MUC16 mutations ((rs754254000, rs754856910, and rs746152510) were all identified in the four lung cancer patients, but none were identified in the bladder cancer patient. All of the 3 MUC16 mutants had very low population allele frequency (all below 0.1%,) suggesting that the MUC16 germline mutations may play roles in the familial lung cancer, which is consistent with previous reports demonstrating the involvement of MUC16 in lung cancer cell growth. Moreover, all the four lung cancer patients had somatic mutations of EGFR L858R/exon 19 deletion prior to treatment with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), including one patient with L858R and exon 19 deletion in different tumor nodules, which is consistent with molecular characteristics in synchronous primary lung cancer. Conclusions: We have demonstrated in this study that germline MUC16 mutations may predispose the inherited cancer family members to lung adenocarcinomas. This study provides a clue of the cause of familial lung cancer and also warrants further mechanistic study of MUC16 gene in lung cancer.
