e19012 Background: While precision oncology is becoming increasingly integrated into standard of care for most incurable solid tumor malignancies, there is paucity of data regarding the clinical significance of VUS. In this study, we aim to evaluate whether the number of VUS is associated with overall survival (OS). We also analyze racial disparities pertaining to the number of VUS present and identify which, if any, genes possess prognostic implications. Methods: This is a retrospective review of 389 consecutive patients seen at Cleveland Clinic from 2014 to 2016 with incurable solid tumor malignancies, for whom next-generation sequencing (NGS) was ordered using Foundation One™ (Cambridge, MA). Demographics, number of VUS, genes involved, and race were summarized. OS was estimated by Kaplan-Meier and compared by log rank test. Results: Median age was 60 years, 202 (52%) patients were female, 338 (86.7%) were Caucasian, and 31 (8.0%) were African American. On NGS, 376 (97%) patients had VUS reported. The median number of VUS was 9 (range 1-116). When dichotomized at the median, the number of VUS did not affect OS. Genes most commonly implicated in reported VUS were LRP1B (88, 22.6%), MLL3 (83, 21.3%), MLL2 (73, 18.8%), ARID1B (70, 18.0%), PRKDC (60, 15.4%), PREX2 (58, 18.7%), and SPTA1 (56, 14.4%). Patients found to have a variant of unknown significance in MLL2 had worse median OS as compared to those who did not (2.61 vs 3.76 years respectively; p = 0.033). When profiled by race, Caucasians had lower numbers of VUS (p = 0.002; Table). Conclusions: We did not find a clear association between the number of VUS and OS. MLL2, a gene known to predict poor prognosis as a pathogenic variant, was seen in our study to have similarly poor prognostic implications as a variant of unknown significance. Racial disparities in genomics exist as African Americans are under-represented and have greater numbers of VUS as compared to Caucasians. Further research is warranted to elucidate these disparities. [Table: see text]
