Purpose The aim of the study was to update the description of Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), a remarkable cancer predisposition characterized by extensive clinical heterogeneity. Patients and Methods From 1,730 French patients suggestive of LFS, we identified 415 mutation carriers in 214 families harboring 133 distinct TP53 alterations and updated their clinical presentation. Results The 322 affected carriers developed 552 tumors, and 43% had developed multiple malignancies. The mean age of first tumor onset was 24.9 years, 41% having developed a tumor by age 18. In childhood, the LFS tumor spectrum was characterized by osteosarcomas, adrenocortical carcinomas (ACC), CNS tumors, and soft tissue sarcomas (STS) observed in 30%, 27%, 26%, and 23% of the patients, respectively. In adults, the tumor distribution was characterized by the predominance of breast carcinomas observed in 79% of the females, and STS observed in 27% of the patients. The TP53 mutation detection rate in children presenting with ACC or choroid plexus carcinomas, and in females with breast cancer before age 31 years, without additional features indicative of LFS, was 45%, 42% and 6%, respectively. The mean age of tumor onset was statistically different (P < .05) between carriers harboring dominant-negative missense mutations (21.3 years) and those with all types of loss of function mutations (28.5 years) or genomic rearrangements (35.8 years). Affected children, except those with ACC, harbored mostly dominant-negative missense mutations. Conclusion The clinical gradient of the germline TP53 mutations, which should be validated by other studies, suggests that it might be appropriate to stratify the clinical management of LFS according to the class of the mutation.

Identification And Characterization

10538 Background: Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is an inherited cancer syndrome mainly caused by a deleterious mutation in TP53. An estimated 48% of LFS patients present due to a deleterious de novo mutation (DNM) in TP53. The knowledge of DNM status, DNM or familial mutation (FM), of an LFS patient requires genetic testing of both parents which is often inaccessible, making de novo LFS patients an understudied population. Famdenovo.TP53 is a Mendelian Risk prediction model used to predict DNM status of TP53 mutation carriers based on the cancer-family history and several input genetic parameters, including disease-gene penetrance. The good predictive performance of Famdenovo.TP53 was demonstrated using data collected from four historical US cohorts. We hypothesize that by incorporating penetrance estimates that are specific for different types of cancers diagnosed in family members, we can develop a model with further improved calibration, accuracy and prediction. Methods: We present Famdenovo.CS, which uses cancer-specific penetrance estimates that were derived previously using a Bayesian semi-parametric competing risk model, to calculate the DNM probability. We use our model to analyze 101 families recently collected from the Clinical Cancer Genetic program at MD Anderson Cancer Center (CCG-TP53) that includes 20 families with known DNM status and 81 families with unknown DNM status. We used the concordance index (AUC), observed:expected ratios (OE) and Brier score (BS) to measure our model’s discrimination, calibration and accuracy, respectively. We estimate the proportion of probands that present a DNM and compare DNM to FM carriers in several areas including: cancer types diagnosed, age at diagnosis, number of primary cancers diagnosed, sex, amino acid change caused by mutation in TP53. Results: Famdenovo.CS showed equally good discrimination and calibration performance to Famdenovo.TP53, while improving the overall accuracy, demonstrated by a decrease in the Brier score of -0.09 (95% CI: [-0.02, -0.19]). Of the 101 probands in the CCG-TP53 cohort, we predict 39 to be DNMs and 62 to be FMs. The cancer types and ages of diagnosis observed in FMs and DNMs are similarly distributed. Conclusions: Famdenovo.CS shows improved model accuracy in the CCG cohort. DNMs in TP53 are a prevalent cause of LFS and we did not find differences in the clinical characteristics of DNM and FM carriers. Our model allows for a systematic identification and characterization of TP53 DNM carriers.

1517 Background: Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) is a cancer predisposition syndrome associated with germline mutation in the TP53 tumor suppressor gene. As a result of increased awareness and surveillance imaging, more asymptomatic low-grade brain lesions are being identified, raising important questions regarding the management of those patients. Sporadic low-grade gliomas (LGG) in the pediatric age rarely transform to malignant lesions, whereas the prognosis of high-grade gliomas (HGG) is grim in all age groups. Although HGG is a hallmark of LFS, little is known of the natural history of these lesions in this syndrome. Methods: For this multi-institutional retrospective study, anonymized clinicopathologic data from TP53 mutation carriers with gliomas were collected and analysed. Results: Our cohort included 61 patients, of whom 71% (n = 45) were children or young adults (age < 25 years). 39% of patients with known family history of cancer had a close relative with a brain tumor. Of 31 patients with low grade lesions at presentation, 83% (n = 26) were identified through surveillance. Five-year progression free survival (PFS) for these patients was 48%, though two patients progressed later. Furthermore, at 5 years 25% of these patients had biopsy proven malignant transformation to HGG. This “transformation free survival” rate did not plateau, as at 7 years 56% of patients transformed. When considering death from a brain tumor, the 5- and 10- year overall survival (OS) for the LGG group was 100% and 83%, respectively. Additional 3 patients succumbed to other LFS related malignancies. For the HGG group, consisting of 30 patients, the 5 year OS was 35% (median follow-up 19.5 months), comparing favorably with the sporadic HGG population as reported in the literature. Almost all of these patients presented with clinical symptoms. Notably, 12 (40%) of them had a prior malignancy. Conclusions: Our analysis suggests that the risk of transformation of LGG in the setting of LFS is high and warrants ongoing surveillance. Interestingly, there are a considerable number of long- term survivors in our HGG group, although the median follow up is still short. Further study to examine potential genotype- phenotype correlations in germline TP53 mutation carriers will inform strategies to identify those patients at highest risk of glioma progression.

Abstract Fifty years after the recognition of the Li–Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), our perception of cancers related to germline alterations of TP53 has drastically changed: (i) germline TP53 alterations are often identified among children with cancers, in particular soft-tissue sarcomas, adrenocortical carcinomas, central nervous system tumours, or among adult females with early breast cancers, without familial history. This justifies the expansion of the LFS concept to a wider cancer predisposition syndrome designated heritable TP53-related cancer (hTP53rc) syndrome; (ii) the interpretation of germline TP53 variants remains challenging and should integrate epidemiological, phenotypical, bioinformatics prediction, and functional data; (iii) the penetrance of germline disease-causing TP53 variants is variable, depending both on the type of variant (dominant-negative variants being associated with a higher cancer risk) and on modifying factors; (iv) whole-body MRI (WBMRI) allows early detection of tumours in variant carriers and (v) in cancer patients with germline disease-causing TP53 variants, radiotherapy, and conventional genotoxic chemotherapy contribute to the development of subsequent primary tumours. It is critical to perform TP53 testing before the initiation of treatment in order to avoid in carriers, if possible, radiotherapy and genotoxic chemotherapies. In children, the recommendations are to perform clinical examination and abdominal ultrasound every 6 months, annual WBMRI and brain MRI from the first year of life, if the TP53 variant is known to be associated with childhood cancers. In adults, the surveillance should include every year clinical examination, WBMRI, breast MRI in females from 20 until 65 years and brain MRI until 50 years.

6552 Background: The tumor suppressors TP53 and CDKN2A are commonly mutated or lost in HNSCC, impairing G1 checkpoints. This reduces ability to repair DNA damage arising from hypoxia, replication stress, and mutagen exposure, thus increasing TMB, a potential predictive biomarker for immunotherapy benefit. TP53 mutations can be classified as loss-of-function (LOF) with or without dominant negative (DNE) activity, gain-of-function (GOF) and benign. We investigated whether specific categories of TP53 mutation were associated with increased TMB, and whether these cooperated with CDKN2A mutation to elevate TMB. Methods: We analyzed 1010 HPV- HNSCC tumor samples (246 female) profiled with a 592-gene panel by Caris Life Sciences from 2015 to 2019. Predominant subsites were oral cavity (285), oropharynx (225) and larynx (153). TMB reflected all somatic nonsynonymous missense mutations detected. We report mean TMB per megabase (MB). Pathogenicity of TP53 and CDKN2A mutations was determined according to American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) guidelines. We also used four alternative methods of characterizing TP53 mutations based on analysis of protein structure, public databases (IARC, ClinVar, InterVar), and publications (PMID: 25108461 and others) assessing structure-function relations. Results: 60% of cases had TP53 mutations ( TP53mut) designated pathogenic by ACMG guidelines. Estimates of frequency of LOF/DNE mutations ranged from 30-42.8% of cases among the alternative classification methods. Damaging CDKN2A mutations were present in 20%. Average TMB per MB varied from 8.2/8.6 (females/males) in oral cavity cancers to 26.5/27.7 (females/males) in cancer of the lip. Mean TMB was typically higher in the presence of damaging LOF/DNE TP53 mutations or CDKN2A mutations, but not TP53 GOF mutations. Based on ACMG, for tumors with TP53 and CDKN2A wild type (WT) TMB was 8.03, for those with CDKN2Amut-only 9.82, for TP53mut-only 10.56, and TP53 mut/CDKN2A mut 17.6 (p < 0.001). For disruptive TP53mut (Poeta algorithm), mean TMB for WT/WT was 8.67, for TP53mut 11.31, CDKN2Amut 17.9 and TP53mut/CDKN2A mut 15.83 (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Mutation of TP53 and/or CDKN2A is associated with increased mean TMB relative to WT; mean TMB was highest for tumors bearing damaging mutations in both genes. GOF TP53 mutation was not clearly associated with increased TMB. As TMB is evaluated as a predictive biomarker in the immunotherapy of HNSCC, specific TP53/CDKN2A mutational status should also be evaluated.

Risk Of Cancer

Li-Fraumeni syndrome is a familial cancer predisposition syndrome associated with germline mutation of the tumor suppressor gene 53, which encodes the tumor suppressor p53 protein. Affected patients are predisposed to an increased risk of cancer development, including soft-tissue sarcomas, breast cancer, brain tumors, and adrenocortical carcinoma, among other malignancies. The tumor suppressor gene TP53 plays an important, complex role in regulating the cell cycle, collaborating with transcription factors and other proteins. The disruption of appropriate cell cycle regulation by mutated TP53 is considered to be the cause of tumorigenesis in Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Appropriate surveillance, predominantly by using MR imaging, is used for early malignancy screening in an effort to improve the survival rate among individuals who are affected. Patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome are also at increased risk for neoplasm development after radiation exposure, and, therefore, avoiding unnecessary radiation in both the diagnostic and therapeutic settings is paramount. Here, we review the epidemiology, genetics, imaging findings, and the current standard surveillance protocol for Li-Fraumeni syndrome from the National Comprehensive Cancer Network as well as potential treatment options.Learning Objective: Describe the cause of second primary malignancy among patients with Li-Fraumeni syndrome.
