Abstract
Purpose
Utilizing real-world data from Japan's C-CAT clinicogenomic repository, our study demonstrates a significant shift in cancer management through cancer genomic profiling (CGP) tests. The aim of this study is assessing the prevalence of cross-organ targeted genetic alterations and exploring the differences in treatment responses among cancer patients who underwent CGP tests.
Methods
Analyzing data from 60,256 patients in the C-CAT repository, we documented the prevalence of FDA-approved biomarkers, cross-organ genetic alterations, and treatment outcomes for tissue-agnostic therapies from June 2019 to December 2023.
Results
Biomarkers including RET rearrangement, BRAFV600E mutation, and NTRK rearrangement showed varied therapeutic responses, underscoring the need for universal CGP testing to optimize patient outcomes. Notably, our findings highlight variations in response across different age groups, suggesting the potential for age-specific treatment strategies. Comparisons with the AACR Project GENIE database revealed broader implications for the global genomic landscape.
Conclusion
This study emphasizes the crucial role of clinicogenomic repositories in advancing precision oncology across diverse populations, underscoring the utility of integrating clinical and genomic data in national repositories.
