Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigate racial disparities in outcomes and molecular features in Black and White patients with endometrioid endometrial carcinoma (EEC). METHODS Black and White patients diagnosed with EEC who underwent hysterectomy ± adjuvant treatment in SEER, National Cancer Database (NCDB), the Genomics Evidence Neoplasia Information Exchange (GENIE) project (v.13.0), and eight NCI-sponsored randomized phase III clinical trials (RCTs) were studied. Hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were estimated for cancer-related death (CRD), non-cancer death (NCD), and all-cause death. RESULTS Black (n = 4397) vs. White (n = 47,959) patients in SEER had a HR (95% CI) of 2.04 (1.87-2.23) for CRD and 1.22 (1.09-1.36) for NCD. In NCDB, the HR (95% CI) for death in Black (n = 13,468) vs. White (n = 155,706) patients was 1.52 (1.46-1.58) dropping to 1.29 (1.23-1.36) after propensity-score matching for age, comorbidity, income, insurance, grade, stage, LVSI, and treatment. In GENIE, Black (n = 109) vs. White (n = 1780) patients had fewer PTEN, PIK3R1, FBXW7, NF1, mTOR, CCND1, and PI3K-pathway-related gene mutations. In contrast, TP53 and DNA-repair-related gene mutation frequency as well as tumor mutational burden-high status were similar in Black and White patients. In RCTs, Black (n = 187) vs. White (n = 2877) patients were more likely to have advanced or recurrent disease, higher grade, worse performance status and progressive disease. Risk of death in Black vs. White patients in RCTs was 2.19 (1.77-2.71) persisting to 1.32 (1.09-1.61) after matching for grade, stage, and treatment arm while balancing age and performance status. CONCLUSIONS Differences exist in clinical presentation, outcomes, and molecular features in Black vs. White patients with EEC in real-world registries and RCTs. Targeted-drug development, strategies to modify social determinants, and diverse inclusion in RCTs are approaches to reduce disparities.

Abstract
Metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States, with a 5-year survival rate of only 11%, necessitating identification of novel treatment paradigms. Tumor tissue specimens from patients with PDAC, breast cancer, and other solid tumor malignancies were collected and tumor cells were enriched using laser microdissection (LMD). Reverse phase protein array (RPPA) analysis was performed on enriched tumor cell lysates to quantify a 32-protein/phosphoprotein biomarker panel comprising known anticancer drug targets and/or cancer-related total and phosphorylated proteins, including HER2Total, HER2Y1248, and HER3Y1289. RPPA analysis revealed significant levels of HER2Total in PDAC patients at abundances comparable to HER2-positive (IHC 3+) and HER2-low (IHC 1+ /2+ , FISH-) breast cancer tissues, for which HER2 screening is routinely performed. These data support a critical unmet need for routine clinical evaluation of HER2 expression in PDAC patients and examination of the utility of HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugates in these patients.

Abstract
Numerous multi-omic investigations of cancer tissue have documented varying and poor pairwise transcript:protein quantitative correlations, and most deconvolution tools aiming to predict cell type proportions (cell admixture) have been developed and credentialed using transcript-level data alone. To estimate cell admixture using protein abundance data, we analyzed proteome and transcriptome data generated from contrived admixtures of tumor, stroma, and immune cell models or those selectively harvested from the tissue microenvironment by laser microdissection from high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) tumors. Co-quantified transcripts and proteins performed similarly to estimate stroma and immune cell admixture (r ≥ 0.63) in two commonly used deconvolution algorithms, ESTIMATE or ConsensusTME. We further developed and optimized protein-based signatures estimating cell admixture proportions and benchmarked these using bulk tumor proteomic data from over 150 patients with HGSOC. The optimized protein signatures supporting cell type proportion estimates from bulk tissue proteomic data are available at https://lmdomics.org/ProteoMixture/.

Abstract
We performed a deep proteogenomic analysis of bulk tumor and laser microdissection enriched tumor cell populations from high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) tissue specimens spanning a broad spectrum of purity. We identified patients with longer progression-free survival had increased immune-related signatures and validated proteins correlating with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in 65 tumors from an independent cohort of HGSOC patients, as well as with overall survival in an additional 126 HGSOC patient cohort. We identified that homologous recombination deficient (HRD) tumors are enriched in pathways associated with metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation that we validated in independent patient cohorts. We further identified that polycomb complex protein BMI-1 is elevated in HR proficient (HRP) tumors, that elevated BMI-1 correlates with poor overall survival in HRP but not HRD HGSOC patients, and that HRP HGSOC cells are uniquely sensitive to BMI-1 inhibition.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate IMT use and survival in real-world stage IVB cervical cancer patients outside randomized clinical trials. METHODS Patients diagnosed with stage IVB cervical cancer during 2013-2019 in the National Cancer Database and treated with chemotherapy (CT) ± external beam radiation (EBRT) ± intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) ± IMT were studied. The adjusted hazard ratio (AHR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for risk of death were estimated in patients treated with vs. without IMT after applying propensity score analysis to balance the clinical covariates. RESULTS There were 3164 evaluable patients, including 969 (31%) who were treated with IMT. The use of IMT increased from 11% in 2013 to 46% in 2019. Age, insurance, facility type, sites of distant metastasis, and type of first-line treatment were independently associated with using IMT. In propensity-score-balanced patients, the median survival was 18.6 vs. 13.1 months for with vs. without IMT (p < 0.001). The AHR was 0.72 (95% CI = 0.64-0.80) for adding IMT overall, 0.72 for IMT + CT, 0.66 for IMT + CT + EBRT, and 0.69 for IMT + CT + EBRT + ICBT. IMT-associated survival improvements were suggested in all subgroups by age, race/ethnicity, comorbidity score, facility type, tumor grade, tumor size, and site of metastasis. CONCLUSIONS IMT was associated with a consistent survival benefit in real-world patients with stage IVB cervical cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE We investigated racial disparities in survival by histology in cervical cancer and examined the factors contributing to these disparities. METHODS Non-Hispanic Black and non-Hispanic White (hereafter known as Black and White) patients with stage I-IV cervical carcinoma diagnosed between 2004 and 2017 in the National Cancer Database were studied. Survival differences were compared using Cox modeling to estimate hazard ratio (HR) or adjusted HR (AHR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). The contribution of demographic, socioeconomic and clinical factors to the Black vs White differences in survival was estimated after applying propensity score weighting in patients with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) or adenocarcinoma (AC). RESULTS This study included 10,111 Black and 43,252 White patients with cervical cancer. Black patients had worse survival than White cervical cancer patients (HR = 1.40, 95% CI = 1.35-1.45). Survival disparities between Black and White patients varied significantly by histology (HR = 1.20, 95% CI = 1.15-1.24 for SCC; HR = 2.32, 95% CI = 2.12-2.54 for AC, interaction p < 0.0001). After balancing the selected demographic, socioeconomic and clinical factors, survival in Black vs. White patients was no longer different in those with SCC (AHR = 1.01, 95% CI 0.97-1.06) or AC (AHR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.96-1.24). In SCC, the largest contributors to survival disparities were neighborhood income and insurance. In AC, age was the most significant contributor followed by neighborhood income, insurance, and stage. Diagnosis of AC (but not SCC) at ≥65 years old was more common in Black vs. White patients (26% vs. 13%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Histology matters in survival disparities and diagnosis at ≥65 years old between Black and White cervical cancer patients. These disparities were largely explained by modifiable factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the risk of an aggressive endometrial cancer (EC) diagnosis by race, ethnicity, and country of origin to further elucidate histologic disparities in non-Hispanic Black (NHB), Hispanic, Asian/Pacific Islander (API), American Indian/Alaskan Native (AIAN) vs. non-Hispanic White (NHW) patients, particularly in Hispanic or API subgroups. METHODS Patient diagnosed between 2004 and 2020 with low grade (LG)-endometrioid endometrial cancer (ECC) or an aggressive EC including grade 3 EEC, serous carcinoma, clear cell carcinoma, mixed epithelial carcinoma, or carcinosarcoma in the National Cancer Database were studied. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for diagnosis of an aggressive EC histology was estimated using logistic modeling. RESULTS There were 343,868 NHW, 48,897 NHB, 30,013 Hispanic, 15,015 API and 1646 AIAN patients. The OR (95% CI) for an aggressive EC diagnosis was 3.07 (3.01-3.13) for NHB, 1.08 (1.06-1.11) for Hispanic, 1.17 (1.13-1.21) for API and 1.07 (0.96-1.19) for AIAN, relative to NHW patients. Subset analyses by country of origin illustrated the diversity in the OR for an aggressive EC diagnosis among Hispanic (1.18 for Mexican to 1.87 for Dominican), Asian (1.14 Asian Indian-Pakistani to 1.48 Korean) and Pacific Islander (1.00 for Hawaiian to 1.33 for Samoan) descendants. Hispanic, API and AIAN patients were diagnosed 5-years younger that NHW patients, and the risk for an aggressive EC histology were all significantly higher than NHW patients after correcting for age. Insurance status was another independent risk factor for aggressive histology. CONCLUSIONS Risk of an aggressive EC diagnosis varied by race, ethnicity, and country of origin. NHB patients had the highest risk, followed by Dominican, South/Central American, Cuban, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, and Filipino descendants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although uterine serous carcinoma (USC) represents a small proportion of all uterine cancer cases, patients with this aggressive subtype typically have high rates of chemotherapy resistance and disease recurrence that collectively result in a disproportionately high death rate. The goal of this study was to provide a deeper view of the tumor microenvironment of this poorly characterized uterine cancer variant through multi-region microsampling and quantitative proteomics. METHODS Tumor epithelium, tumor-involved stroma, and whole "bulk" tissue were harvested by laser microdissection (LMD) from spatially resolved levels from nine USC patient tumor specimens and underwent proteomic analysis by mass spectrometry and reverse phase protein arrays, as well as transcriptomic analysis by RNA-sequencing for one patient's tumor. RESULTS LMD enriched cell subpopulations demonstrated varying degrees of relatedness, indicating substantial intratumor heterogeneity emphasizing the necessity for enrichment of cellular subpopulations prior to molecular analysis. Known prognostic biomarkers were quantified with stable levels in both LMD enriched tumor and stroma, which were shown to be highly variable in bulk tissue. These USC data were further used in a comparative analysis with a data generated from another serous gynecologic malignancy, high grade serous ovarian carcinoma, and have been added to our publicly available data analysis tool, the Heterogeneity Analysis Portal ( https://lmdomics.org/ ). CONCLUSIONS Here we identified extensive three-dimensional heterogeneity within the USC tumor microenvironment, with disease-relevant biomarkers present in both the tumor and the stroma. These data underscore the critical need for upfront enrichment of cellular subpopulations from tissue specimens for spatial proteogenomic analysis.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine if pelvic/ovarian and omental lesions of ovarian cancer can be reliably segmented on computed tomography (CT) using fully automated deep learning-based methods. METHODS A deep learning model for the two most common disease sites of high-grade serous ovarian cancer lesions (pelvis/ovaries and omentum) was developed and compared against the well-established "no-new-Net" framework and unrevised trainee radiologist segmentations. A total of 451 CT scans collected from four different institutions were used for training (n = 276), evaluation (n = 104) and testing (n = 71) of the methods. The performance was evaluated using the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) and compared using a Wilcoxon test. RESULTS Our model outperformed no-new-Net for the pelvic/ovarian lesions in cross-validation, on the evaluation and test set by a significant margin (p values being 4 × 10-7, 3 × 10-4, 4 × 10-2, respectively), and for the omental lesions on the evaluation set (p = 1 × 10-3). Our model did not perform significantly differently in segmenting pelvic/ovarian lesions (p = 0.371) compared to a trainee radiologist. On an independent test set, the model achieved a DSC performance of 71 ± 20 (mean ± standard deviation) for pelvic/ovarian and 61 ± 24 for omental lesions. CONCLUSION Automated ovarian cancer segmentation on CT scans using deep neural networks is feasible and achieves performance close to a trainee-level radiologist for pelvic/ovarian lesions. RELEVANCE STATEMENT Automated segmentation of ovarian cancer may be used by clinicians for CT-based volumetric assessments and researchers for building complex analysis pipelines. KEY POINTS • The first automated approach for pelvic/ovarian and omental ovarian cancer lesion segmentation on CT images has been presented. • Automated segmentation of ovarian cancer lesions can be comparable with manual segmentation of trainee radiologists. • Careful hyperparameter tuning can provide models significantly outperforming strong state-of-the-art baselines.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the metabolic alterations associated with clinical response to chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer. Pre- and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) tissues from patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) who had poor response (PR) or excellent response (ER) to NACT were examined. Desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (DESI-MS) was performed on sections of HGSC tissues collected according to a rigorous laparoscopic triage algorithm. Quantitative MS-based proteomics and phosphoproteomics were performed on a subgroup of pre-NACT samples. Highly abundant metabolites in the pre-NACT PR tumors were related to pyrimidine metabolism in the epithelial regions and oxygen-dependent proline hydroxylation of hypoxia-inducible factor alpha in the stromal regions. Metabolites more abundant in the epithelial regions of post-NACT PR tumors were involved in the metabolism of nucleotides, and metabolites more abundant in the stromal regions of post-NACT PR tumors were related to aspartate and asparagine metabolism, phenylalanine and tyrosine metabolism, nucleotide biosynthesis, and the urea cycle. A predictive model built on ions with differential abundances allowed the classification of patients' tumor responses as ER or PR with 75% accuracy (10-fold cross-validation ridge regression model). These findings offer new insights related to differential responses to chemotherapy and could lead to novel actionable targets.

Abstract
Breast cancer in young patients is known to exhibit more aggressive biological behavior and is associated with a less favorable prognosis than the same disease in older patients, owing in part to an increased incidence of brain metastases. The mechanistic explanations behind these findings remain poorly understood. We recently reported that young mice, in comparison to older mice, developed significantly greater brain metastases in four mouse models of triple-negative and luminal B breast cancer. Here we have performed a quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis to identify proteins potentially contributing to age-related disparities in the development of breast cancer brain metastases. Using a mouse hematogenous model of brain-tropic triple-negative breast cancer (MDA-MB-231BR), we harvested subpopulations of tumor metastases, the tumor-adjacent metastatic microenvironment, and uninvolved brain tissues via laser microdissection followed by quantitative proteomic analysis using high resolution mass spectrometry to characterize differentially abundant proteins potentially contributing to age-dependent rates of brain metastasis. Pathway analysis revealed significant alterations in signaling pathways, particularly in the metastatic microenvironment, modulating tumorigenesis, metabolic processes, inflammation, and neuronal signaling. Tenascin C (TNC) was significantly elevated in all laser microdissection (LMD) enriched compartments harvested from young mice relative to older hosts, which was validated and confirmed by immunoblot analysis of whole brain lysates. Additional in vitro studies including migration and wound-healing assays demonstrated TNC as a positive regulator of tumor cell migration. These results provide important new insights regarding microenvironmental factors, including TNC, as mechanisms contributing to the increased brain cancer metastatic phenotype observed in young breast cancer patients.

Abstract
The molecular identification of tissue proteoforms by top-down mass spectrometry (TDMS) is significantly limited by throughput and dynamic range. We introduce AutoPiMS, a single-ion MS based multiplexed workflow for top-down tandem MS (MS2) directly from tissue microenvironments in a semi-automated manner. AutoPiMS directly off human ovarian cancer sections allowed for MS2 identification of 73 proteoforms up to 54 kDa at a rate of <1 min per proteoform. AutoPiMS is directly interfaced with multifaceted proteoform imaging MS data modalities for the identification of proteoform signatures in tumor and stromal regions in ovarian cancer biopsies. From a total of ~1000 proteoforms detected by region-of-interest label-free quantitation, we discover 303 differential proteoforms in stroma versus tumor from the same patient. 14 of the top proteoform signatures are corroborated by MSI at 20 micron resolution including the differential localization of methylated forms of CRIP1, indicating the importance of proteoform-enabled spatial biology in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Alcohol use disorder (AUD) affects transcriptomic, epigenetic and proteomic expression in several organs, including the brain. There has not been a comprehensive analysis of altered protein abundance focusing on the multiple brain regions that undergo neuroadaptations occurring in AUD. We performed a quantitative proteomic analysis using a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of human postmortem tissue from brain regions that play key roles in the development and maintenance of AUD, the amygdala (AMG), hippocampus (HIPP), hypothalamus (HYP), nucleus accumbens (NAc), prefrontal cortex (PFC) and ventral tegmental area (VTA). Brain tissues were from adult males with AUD (n = 11) and matched controls (n = 16). Across the two groups, there were >6000 proteins quantified with differential protein abundance in AUD compared to controls in each of the six brain regions. The region with the greatest number of differentially expressed proteins was the AMG, followed by the HYP. Pathways associated with differentially expressed proteins between groups (fold change > 1.5 and LIMMA p < 0.01) were analyzed by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). In the AMG, adrenergic, opioid, oxytocin, GABA receptor and cytokine pathways were among the most enriched. In the HYP, dopaminergic signaling pathways were the most enriched. Proteins with differential abundance in AUD highlight potential therapeutic targets such as oxytocin, CSNK1D (PF-670462), GABAB receptor and opioid receptors and may lead to the identification of other potential targets. These results improve our understanding of the molecular alterations of AUD across brain regions that are associated with the development and maintenance of AUD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE ATR kinase inhibitors promote cell killing by inducing replication stress and through potentiation of genotoxic agents in gynecologic cancer cells. To explore mechanisms of acquired resistance to ATRi in ovarian cancer, we characterized ATRi-resistant ovarian cancer cells generated by metronomic dosing with the clinical ATR inhibitor AZD6738. METHODS ATRi-resistant ovarian cancer cells (OVCAR3 and OV90) were generated by dosing with AZD6738 and assessed for sensitivity to Chk1i (LY2603618), PARPi (Olaparib) and combination with cisplatin or a CDK4/6 inhibitor (Palbociclib). Models were characterized by diverse methods including silencing CDC25A in OV90 cells and assessing impact on ATRi response. Serum proteomic analysis of ATRi-resistant OV90 xenografts was performed to identify circulating biomarker candidates of ATRi-resistance. RESULTS AZD6738-resistant cell lines are refractory to LY2603618, but not to Olaparib or combinations with cisplatin. Cell cycle analyses showed ATRi-resistant cells exhibit G1/S arrest following AZD6738 treatment. Accordingly, combination with Palbociclib confers resistance to AZD6738. AZD6738-resistant cells exhibit altered abundances of G1/S phase regulatory proteins, including loss of CDC25A in AZD6738-resistant OV90 cells. Silencing of CDC25A in OV90 cells confers resistance to AZD6738. Serum proteomics from AZD6738-resistant OV90 xenografts identified Vitamin D-Binding Protein (GC), Apolipoprotein E (APOE) and A1 (APOA1) as significantly elevated in AZD6738-resistant backgrounds. CONCLUSIONS We show that metronomic dosing of ovarian cancer cells with AZD6738 results in resistance to ATR/ Chk1 inhibitors, that loss of CDC25A expression represents a mechanism of resistance to ATRi treatment in ovarian cancer cells and identify several circulating biomarker candidates of CDC25A low, AZD6738-resistant ovarian cancer cells.

Abstract
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs) are intermediate-grade mesenchymal neoplasms commonly characterized by chromosomal rearrangements causing constitutive activation of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and/or ALK mutations causing reduced sensitivity to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). We present a patient with an IMT who initially responded to first-line alectinib, but who later suffered disease relapse and presently survives with moderate residual disease after receiving second-line lorlatinib. Biopsy specimens were analyzed using next generation sequencing (DNA-seq and RNA-seq) and reverse phase protein microarray (RPPA) as part of an institutional Molecular Tumor Board (MTB) study. An EML4-ALK rearrangement and EGFR activation (pEGFRY1068) were present in both the primary and recurrent tumors, while a secondary ALK I1171N mutation was exclusive to the latter. EGFR signaling in the background of a secondary ALK mutation is correlated with reduced ALK TKI sensitivity in vitro, implicating an important mechanism of drug resistance development in this patient. The RPPA results also critically demonstrate that ALK signaling (ALKY1604) was not activated in the recurrent tumor, thereby indicating that standard-of-care use of third- or fourth-line ALK TKI would not likely be efficacious or durable. These results underscore the importance of real-time clinical integration of functional protein drug target activation data with NGS in the MTB setting for improving selection of patient-tailored therapy.

Abstract
Importance Disparities in survival exist between non-Hispanic Black (hereafter, Black) and non-Hispanic White (hereafter, White) patients with uterine cancer. Objective To investigate factors associated with racial disparities in survival between Black and White patients with uterine cancer. Design, Setting, and Patients This cohort study used data from the National Cancer Database on 274 838 Black and White patients who received a diagnosis of uterine cancer from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2017, with follow-up through December 2020. Statistical analysis was performed in July 2022. Main Outcomes and Measures Overall survival by self-reported race and evaluation of explanatory study factors associated with hazard ratio (HR) reduction for Black vs White patients. A propensity scoring approach was applied sequentially to balance racial differences in demographic characteristics, comorbidity score, neighborhood income, insurance status, histologic subtype, disease stage, and treatment. Results The study included 32 230 Black female patients (mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 63.8 [10.0] years) and 242 608 White female patients (mean [SD] age at diagnosis, 63.5 [10.5] years) and had a median follow-up of 74.0 months (range, 43.5-113.8 months). Black patients were more likely than White patients to have low income (44.1% vs 14.0%), be uninsured (5.7% vs 2.6%), present with nonendometrioid histologic characteristics (46.1% vs 21.6%), have an advanced disease stage (34.1% vs 19.8%), receive first-line chemotherapy (33.8% vs 18.2%), and have worse 5-year survival (58.6% vs 78.5%). Among patients who received a diagnosis at younger than 65 years of age, the HR for death for Black vs White patients was 2.43 (95% CI, 2.34-2.52) in a baseline demographic-adjusted model and 1.29 (95% CI, 1.23-1.35) after balancing other factors. Comorbidity score, neighborhood income, insurance status, histologic subtype, disease stage, treatment, and unexplained factors accounted for 0.8%, 7.2%, 11.5%, 53.1%, 5.8%, 1.2%, and 20.4%, respectively, of the excess relative risk (ERR) among the younger Black vs White patients. Among patients 65 years or older, the HR for death for Black vs White patients was 1.87 (95% CI, 1.81-1.93) in the baseline model and 1.14 (95% CI, 1.09-1.19) after balancing other factors. Comorbidity score, neighborhood income, insurance status, histologic subtype, disease stage, treatment, and unexplained factors accounted for 3.0%, 7.5%, 0.0%, 56.2%, 10.6%, 6.9%, and 15.8%, respectively, of the ERR among Black vs White patients aged 65 years or older. Conclusions and Relevance This study suggests that histologic subtype was the dominant factor associated with racial survival disparity among patients with uterine cancer, while insurance status represented the main modifiable factor for women younger than 65 years. Additional studies of interactions between biology and social determinants of health are merited.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although advanced stage epithelial ovarian cancer is widely considered life-threatening, 17% of women with advanced disease will survive long-term. Little is known about the health-related quality of life (QOL) of long-term ovarian cancer survivors, or how fear of recurrence might affect QOL. METHODS 58 long-term survivors with advanced disease participated in the study. Participants completed standardized questionnaires to capture cancer history, QOL, and fear of recurrent disease (FOR). Statistical analyses included multivariable linear models. RESULTS Participants averaged 52.8 years at diagnosis and had survived >8 years (mean:13.5); 64% had recurrent disease. Mean FACT-G, FACT-O, and FACT-O-TOI (TOI) scores were 90.7 (SD:11.6), 128.6 (SD:14.8), and 85.9 (SD:10.2) respectively. Compared to the U.S. population using T-scores, QOL for participants exceeded that of healthy adults (T-score (FACT-G) = 55.9). Overall QOL was lower in women with recurrent vs. non-recurrent disease though differences did not reach statistical significance (FACT-O = 126.1 vs. 133.3, p = 0.082). Despite good QOL, high FOR was reported in 27%. FOR was inversely associated with emotional well-being (EWB) (p < 0.001), but not associated with other QOL subdomains. In multivariable analysis, FOR was a significant predictor of EWB after adjusting for QOL (TOI). A significant interaction was observed between recurrence and FOR (p = 0.034), supporting a larger impact of FOR in recurrent disease. CONCLUSION QOL in long-term ovarian cancer survivors was better than the average for healthy U.S. women. Despite good QOL, high FOR contributed significantly to increased emotional distress, most notably for those with recurrence. Attention to FOR may be warranted in this survivor population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cyclin E1 (CCNE1) is a potential predictive marker and therapeutic target in tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC). Smaller studies have revealed unfavorable associations for CCNE1 amplification and CCNE1 overexpression with survival, but to date no large-scale, histotype-specific validation has been performed. The hypothesis was that high-level amplification of CCNE1 and CCNE1 overexpression, as well as a combination of the two, are linked to shorter overall survival in HGSC. METHODS Within the Ovarian Tumor Tissue Analysis consortium, amplification status and protein level in 3029 HGSC cases and mRNA expression in 2419 samples were investigated. RESULTS High-level amplification (>8 copies by chromogenic in situ hybridization) was found in 8.6% of HGSC and overexpression (>60% with at least 5% demonstrating strong intensity by immunohistochemistry) was found in 22.4%. CCNE1 high-level amplification and overexpression both were linked to shorter overall survival in multivariate survival analysis adjusted for age and stage, with hazard stratification by study (hazard ratio [HR], 1.26; 95% CI, 1.08-1.47, p = .034, and HR, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.05-1.32, p = .015, respectively). This was also true for cases with combined high-level amplification/overexpression (HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.09-1.47, p = .033). CCNE1 mRNA expression was not associated with overall survival (HR, 1.00 per 1-SD increase; 95% CI, 0.94-1.06; p = .58). CCNE1 high-level amplification is mutually exclusive with the presence of germline BRCA1/2 pathogenic variants and shows an inverse association to RB1 loss. CONCLUSION This study provides large-scale validation that CCNE1 high-level amplification is associated with shorter survival, supporting its utility as a prognostic biomarker in HGSC.

Abstract
High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is frequently characterized by homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair deficiency and, while most such tumors are sensitive to initial treatment, acquired resistance is common. We undertook a multiomics approach to interrogate molecular diversity in end-stage disease, using multiple autopsy samples collected from 15 women with HR-deficient HGSC. Patients had polyclonal disease, and several resistance mechanisms were identified within most patients, including reversion mutations and HR restoration by other means. We also observed frequent whole-genome duplication and global changes in immune composition with evidence of immune escape. This analysis highlights diverse evolutionary changes within HGSC that evade therapy and ultimately overwhelm individual patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) is a rare disease that occurs more frequently in younger women than those with high-grade disease. The current treatment is suboptimal and a better understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of this disease is required. In this study, we compared the proteogenomic analyses of LGSOCs from short- and long-term survivors (defined as < 40 and > 60 months, respectively). Our goal was to identify novel mutations, proteins, and mRNA transcripts that are dysregulated in LGSOC, particularly in short-term survivors. METHODS Initially, targeted sequencing of 409 cancer-related genes was performed on 22 LGSOC and 6 serous borderline ovarian tumor samples. Subsequently, whole-genome sequencing analysis was performed on 14 LGSOC samples (7 long-term survivors and 7 short-term survivors) with matched normal tissue samples. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), quantitative proteomics, and phosphoproteomic analyses were also performed. RESULTS We identified single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) (range: 5688-14,833 per sample), insertion and deletion variants (indels) (range: 880-1065), and regions with copy number variants (CNVs) (range: 62-335) among the 14 LGSOC samples. Among all SNVs and indels, 2637 mutation sites were found in the exonic regions. The allele frequencies of the detected variants were low (median12%). The identified recurrent nonsynonymous missense mutations included KRAS, NRAS, EIF1AX, UBR5, and DNM3 mutations. Mutations in DNM3 and UBR5 have not previously been reported in LGSOC. For the two samples, somatic DNM3 nonsynonymous missense mutations in the exonic region were validated using Sanger sequencing. The third sample contained two missense mutations in the intronic region of DNM3, leading to a frameshift mutation detected in RNA transcripts in the RNA-seq data. Among the 14 LGSOC samples, 7754 proteins and 9733 phosphosites were detected by global proteomic analysis. Some of these proteins and signaling pathways, such as BST1, TBXAS1, MPEG1, HBA1, and phosphorylated ASAP1, are potential therapeutic targets. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to use whole-genome sequencing to detect somatic mutations in LGSOCs with matched normal tissues. We detected and validated novel mutations in DNM3, which were present in 3 of the 14 samples analyzed. Additionally, we identified novel indels, regions with CNVs, dysregulated mRNA, dysregulated proteins, and phosphosites that are more prevalent in short-term survivors. This integrated proteogenomic analysis can guide research into the pathogenesis and treatment of LGSOC.

Abstract
Fewer than half of all patients with advanced-stage high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSCs) survive more than five years after diagnosis, but those who have an exceptionally long survival could provide insights into tumor biology and therapeutic approaches. We analyzed 60 patients with advanced-stage HGSC who survived more than 10 years after diagnosis using whole-genome sequencing, transcriptome and methylome profiling of their primary tumor samples, comparing this data to 66 short- or moderate-term survivors. Tumors of long-term survivors were more likely to have multiple alterations in genes associated with DNA repair and more frequent somatic variants resulting in an increased predicted neoantigen load. Patients clustered into survival groups based on genomic and immune cell signatures, including three subsets of patients with BRCA1 alterations with distinctly different outcomes. Specific combinations of germline and somatic gene alterations, tumor cell phenotypes and differential immune responses appear to contribute to long-term survival in HGSC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal cytoreduction to no residual disease (R0) correlates with improved disease outcome for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients. Treatment of HGSOC patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, however, may select for tumor cells harboring alterations in hallmark cancer pathways including metastatic potential. This study assessed this hypothesis by performing proteomic analysis of matched, chemotherapy naïve and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT)-treated HGSOC tumors obtained from patients who had suboptimal (R1, n = 6) versus optimal (R0, n = 14) debulking at interval debulking surgery (IDS). METHODS Tumor epithelium was harvested by laser microdissection from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from matched, pre- and post-NACT treated tumors for twenty HGSOC patients and analyzed by quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics. RESULTS Differential analysis of patient matched pre- and post-NACT treated tumors revealed proteins associated with cell survival and metabolic signaling to be significantly altered in post-NACT treated tumor cells. Comparison of pre-NACT treated tumors from suboptimal (R1) versus optimally (R0) debulked patients identified proteins associated with tumor cell viability and invasion signaling enriched in R1 patients. We identified five proteins altered between R1 and R0 patients in pre- NACT treated tumors that significantly correlated with PFS in an independent cohort of HGSOC patients, including Fermitin family homolog 2 (FERMT2), a protein elevated in R1 that correlated with disease progression in HGSOC patients (multivariate Cox HR = 1.65, Wald p = 0.022) and increased metastatic potential in solid-tumor malignancies. CONCLUSIONS This study identified distinct proteome profiles in patient matched pre- and post-NACT HGSOC tumors that correlate with NACT resistance and that may predict residual disease status at IDS that collectively warrant further pre-clinical investigation.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Despite similar histologic appearance among high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOCs), clinical observations suggest vast differences in gross appearance. There is currently no systematic framework by which to classify HGSOCs according to their gross morphologic characteristics. OBJECTIVE To develop and characterize a gross morphologic classification system for HGSOC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This cohort study included patients with suspected advanced-stage ovarian cancer who presented between April 1, 2013, and August 5, 2016, to the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, a large referral center. Patients underwent laparoscopic assessment of disease burden before treatment and received a histopathologic diagnosis of HGSOC. Researchers assigning morphologic subtype and performing molecular analyses were blinded to clinical outcomes. Data analysis was performed between April 2020 and November 2021. EXPOSURES Gross tumor morphologic characteristics. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Clinical outcomes and multiomic profiles of representative tumor samples of type I or type II morphologic subtypes were compared. RESULTS Of 112 women (mean [SD] age 62.7 [9.7] years) included in the study, most patients (84% [94]) exhibited a predominant morphologic subtype and many (63% [71]) had a uniform morphologic subtype at all involved sites. Compared with those with uniform type I morphologic subtype, patients with uniform type II morphologic subtype were more likely to have a favorable Fagotti score (83% [19 of 23] vs 46% [22 of 48]; P = .004) and thus to be triaged to primary tumor reductive surgery. Similarly, patients with uniform type II morphologic subtype also had significantly higher mean (SD) estimated blood loss (639 [559; 95% CI, 391-887] mL vs 415 [527; 95% CI, 253-577] mL; P = .006) and longer mean (SD) operative time (408 [130; 95% CI, 350-466] minutes vs 333 [113; 95% CI, 298-367] minutes; P = .03) during tumor reductive surgery. Type I tumors had enrichment of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (false discovery rate [FDR] q-value, 3.10 × 10-24), hypoxia (FDR q-value, 1.52 × 10-5), and angiogenesis pathways (FDR q-value, 2.11 × 10-2), whereas type II tumors had enrichment of pathways related to MYC signaling (FDR q-value, 2.04 × 10-9) and cell cycle progression (FDR q-value, 1.10 × 10-5) by integrated proteomic and transcriptomic analysis. Abundances of metabolites and lipids also differed between the 2 morphologic subtypes. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE This study identified 2 novel, gross morphologic subtypes of HGSOC, each with unique clinical features and molecular signatures. The findings may have implications for triaging patients to surgery or chemotherapy, identifying outcomes, and developing tailored therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Objectives: A risk assessment model for metastasis in endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) was developed using molecular and clinical features, and prognostic association was examined. Methods: Patients had stage I, IIIC, or IV EEC with tumor-derived RNA-sequencing or microarray-based data. Metastasis-associated transcripts and platform-centric diagnostic algorithms were selected and evaluated using regression modeling and receiver operating characteristic curves. Results: Seven metastasis-associated transcripts were selected from analysis in the training cohorts using 10-fold cross validation and incorporated into an MS7 classifier using platform-specific coefficients. The predictive accuracy of the MS7 classifier in Training-1 was superior to that of other clinical and molecular features, with an area under the curve (95% confidence interval) of 0.89 (0.80-0.98) for MS7 compared with 0.69 (0.59-0.80) and 0.71 (0.58-0.83) for the top evaluated clinical and molecular features, respectively. The performance of MS7 was independently validated in 245 patients using RNA sequencing and in 81 patients using microarray-based data. MS7 + MI (myometrial invasion) was preferrable to individual features and exhibited 100% sensitivity and negative predictive value. The MS7 classifier was associated with lower progression-free and overall survival (p ≤ 0.003). Conclusion: A risk assessment classifier for metastasis and prognosis in EEC patients with primary tumor derived MS7 + MI is available for further development and optimization as a companion clinical support tool.

Abstract
All human diseases involve proteins, yet our current tools to characterize and quantify them are limited. To better elucidate proteins across space, time, and molecular composition, we provide a >10 years of projection for technologies to meet the challenges that protein biology presents. With a broad perspective, we discuss grand opportunities to transition the science of proteomics into a more propulsive enterprise. Extrapolating recent trends, we describe a next generation of approaches to define, quantify, and visualize the multiple dimensions of the proteome, thereby transforming our understanding and interactions with human disease in the coming decade.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Develop conditional survival and risk-assessment estimates for uterine serous carcinoma (USC) overall and stratified by stage as tools for annual survivorship counseling and care planning. METHODS Patients in the National Cancer Data Base diagnosed between 2004 and 2014 with stage I-IV USC were eligible. Individuals missing stage or survival data or with multiple malignancies were excluded. Five-year conditional survival was estimated using the stage-stratified Kaplan-Meier method annually during follow-up. A standardized mortality ratio (SMR) estimated the proportion of observed to expected deaths in the U.S. adjusted for year, age, and race. The relationships between prognostic factors and survival were studied using multivariate Cox modeling at diagnosis and conditioned on surviving 5-years. RESULTS There were 14,575 participants, including 43% with stage I, 8% with stage II, 29% with stage III, and 20% with stage IV USC. Five-year survival at diagnosis vs. after surviving 5-years was 52% vs. 75% overall, 77% vs. 81% for stage I, 57% vs. 72% for stage II, 40% vs. 66% for stage III, and 17% vs. 60% for stage IV USC, respectively (P < 0.0001). Incremental improvements in 5-year conditional survival and reductions in SMR tracked with annual follow-up and higher stage. The adjusted risk of death at diagnosis vs. after surviving 5-years was 1.15 vs. 1.40 per 5-year increase of age, 1.26 vs. 1.68 for Medicaid insurance, 3.92 vs. 2.48 for stage III disease, and 6.65 vs. 2.79 for stage IV disease, respectively (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION In USC, the evolution of conditional survival permits annual reassessments of prognosis to tailor survivorship counseling and care planning.

Abstract
While BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations are known to confer the largest risk of breast cancer and ovarian cancer, the incomplete penetrance of the mutations and the substantial variability in age at cancer onset among carriers suggest additional factors modifying the risk of cancer in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers. To identify genetic modifiers of BRCA1/2, we carried out a whole-genome sequencing study of 66 ovarian cancer patients that were enriched with BRCA carriers, followed by validation using data from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes Consortium. We found PPARGC1A, a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and function, to be highly mutated in BRCA carriers, and patients with both PPARGC1A and BRCA1/2 mutations were diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer at significantly younger ages, while the mutation status of each gene alone did not significantly associate with age of onset. Our study suggests PPARGC1A as a possible BRCA modifier gene. Upon further validation, this finding can help improve cancer risk prediction and provide personalized preventive care for BRCA carriers.

Abstract
Tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC) are highly proliferative neoplasms that generally respond well to platinum/taxane chemotherapy. We recently identified minichromosome maintenance complex component 3 (MCM3), which is involved in the initiation of DNA replication and proliferation, as a favorable prognostic marker in HGSC. Our objective was to further validate whether MCM3 mRNA expression and possibly MCM3 protein levels are associated with survival in patients with HGSC. MCM3 mRNA expression was measured using NanoString expression profiling on formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue (N = 2355 HGSC) and MCM3 protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry (N = 522 HGSC) and compared with Ki-67. Kaplan-Meier curves and the Cox proportional hazards model were used to estimate associations with survival. Among chemotherapy-naïve HGSC, higher MCM3 mRNA expression (one standard deviation increase in the score) was associated with longer overall survival (HR = 0.87, 95% CI 0.81-0.92, p < 0.0001, N = 1840) in multivariable analysis. MCM3 mRNA expression was highest in the HGSC C5.PRO molecular subtype, although no interaction was observed between MCM3, survival and molecular subtypes. MCM3 and Ki-67 protein levels were significantly lower after exposure to neoadjuvant chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy-naïve tumors: 37.0% versus 46.4% and 22.9% versus 34.2%, respectively. Among chemotherapy-naïve HGSC, high MCM3 protein levels were also associated with significantly longer disease-specific survival (HR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.36-0.74, p = 0.0003, N = 392) compared to cases with low MCM3 protein levels in multivariable analysis. MCM3 immunohistochemistry is a promising surrogate marker of proliferation in HGSC.

Abstract
Characterization of ancestry-linked peptide variants in disease-relevant patient tissues represents a foundational step to connect patient ancestry with disease pathogenesis. Nonsynonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms encoding missense substitutions within tryptic peptides exhibiting high allele frequencies in European, African, and East Asian populations, termed peptide ancestry informative markers (pAIMs), were prioritized from 1000 genomes. In silico analysis identified that as few as 20 pAIMs can determine ancestry proportions similarly to >260K SNPs (R2 = 0.99). Multiplexed proteomic analysis of >100 human endometrial cancer cell lines and uterine leiomyoma tissues combined resulted in the quantitation of 62 pAIMs that correlate with patient race and genotype-confirmed ancestry. Candidates include a D451E substitution in GC vitamin D-binding protein previously associated with altered vitamin D levels in African and European populations. pAIMs will support generalized proteoancestry assessment as well as efforts investigating the impact of ancestry on the human proteome and how this relates to the pathogenesis of uterine neoplasms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Evaluate association between obesity and angiogenic-related gene expression in endometrial cancer (EC). Evaluate interaction between diet and metformin on angiogenic-related gene expression. METHODS We evaluated the association between 168 human angiogenic-related genes and body mass index (BMI) in the TCGA Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma cohort (endometrioid endometrial cancer (EEC) cohort n = 290, and copy number high cohort n = 55), an independent validation cohort from Gynecologic Cancer Center of Excellence (GYN-COE) (n = 62) and corresponding 185 homologous mouse genes in an LKB1fl/flp53fl/fl mouse model of EC (n = 20). Mice received 60% of calories from fat in a high-fat diet (HFD), mimicking diet-induced obesity, versus 10% of calories from fat in a low-fat diet (LFD). After tumor growth, HFD (n = 5) and LFD (n = 5) mice were treated with metformin (200 mg/kg/day) or control. Whole transcriptome analysis of mouse tumors was performed using RNA-Seq. RESULTS At a false-discovery rate of 10%, twenty-one angiogenic-related genes were differentially expressed with respect to BMI when adjusting for grade in the TCGA EEC cohort. Evaluation of these genes in the mouse model control group revealed association between increased Edil3 expression in HFD versus LFD mice (2.5-fold change (FC); unadjusted p = 0.03). An interaction was observed for expression of Edil3 between diet and metformin treatment (unadjusted p = 0.009). Association between BMI and increased expression of EDIL3 was validated in one of four EDIL3 probesets in the GYN-COE cohort (p = 0.0011, adjusted p = 0.0342). CONCLUSIONS Obesity may promote tumor progression via differential modulation of angiogenic pathways in EEC. Our exploratory findings demonstrated that EDIL3 may be a candidate gene of interest.

Abstract
Activation of Pannexin 1 (PANX1) ion channels causes release of intercellular signaling molecules in a variety of (patho)physiological contexts. PANX1 can be activated by G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), including α1-adrenergic receptors (α1-ARs), but how receptor engagement leads to channel opening remains unclear. Here, we show that GPCR-mediated PANX1 activation can occur via channel deacetylation. We find that α1-AR-mediated activation of PANX1 channels requires Gαq but is independent of phospholipase C or intracellular calcium. Instead, α1-AR-mediated PANX1 activation involves RhoA, mammalian diaphanous (mDia)-related formin, and a cytosolic lysine deacetylase activated by mDia - histone deacetylase 6. HDAC6 associates with PANX1 and activates PANX1 channels, even in excised membrane patches, suggesting direct deacetylation of PANX1. Substitution of basally-acetylated intracellular lysine residues identified on PANX1 by mass spectrometry either prevents HDAC6-mediated activation (K140/409Q) or renders the channels constitutively active (K140R). These data define a non-canonical RhoA-mDia-HDAC6 signaling pathway for GαqPCR activation of PANX1 channels and uncover lysine acetylation-deacetylation as an ion channel silencing-activation mechanism.

Abstract
Enriched tumor epithelium, tumor-associated stroma, and whole tissue were collected by laser microdissection from thin sections across spatially separated levels of ten high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas (HGSOCs) and analyzed by mass spectrometry, reverse phase protein arrays, and RNA sequencing. Unsupervised analyses of protein abundance data revealed independent clustering of an enriched stroma and enriched tumor epithelium, with whole tumor tissue clustering driven by overall tumor "purity." Comparing these data to previously defined prognostic HGSOC molecular subtypes revealed protein and transcript expression from tumor epithelium correlated with the differentiated subtype, whereas stromal proteins (and transcripts) correlated with the mesenchymal subtype. Protein and transcript abundance in the tumor epithelium and stroma exhibited decreased correlation in samples collected just hundreds of microns apart. These data reveal substantial tumor microenvironment protein heterogeneity that directly bears on prognostic signatures, biomarker discovery, and cancer pathophysiology and underscore the need to enrich cellular subpopulations for expression profiling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is a critical need to identify patient characteristics associated with long-term ovarian cancer survival. METHODS Quality of life (QOL), measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Ovarian-Trial Outcome Index (FACT-O-TOI), including physical, functional and ovarian-specific subscales, was compared between long-term (LTS) (8+ years) and short-term (STS) (<5 years) survivors of GOG 218 at baseline, before cycles 4, 7, 13, 21, and 6 months post-treatment using linear and longitudinal mixed models adjusted for covariates. Adverse events (AEs) were compared between survivor groups at each assessment using generalized linear models. All p-values are two-sided. RESULTS QOL differed statistically significantly between STS (N = 1115) and LTS (N = 260) (p < .001). Baseline FACT-O-TOI and FACT-O-TOI change were independently associated with long-term survival (OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 1.03-1.06 and OR = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.05-1.07, respectively). A 7-point increase in baseline QOL was associated with a 38.0% increase in probability of LTS, while a 9-point increase in QOL change was associated with a 67.0% increase in odds for LTS. QOL decreased statistically significantly with increasing AE quartiles (cycle 4 quartiles: 0-5 v. 6-8 v. 9-11 v. ≥12 AEs, p = .01; cycle 21 quartiles: 0-2 v. 3 v. 4-5 v. ≥6 AEs, p = .001). Further, LTS reported statistically significantly better QOL compared to STS (p = .03 and p = .01, cycles 4 and 21, respectively), with similar findings across higher AE grades. CONCLUSION Baseline and longitudinal QOL change scores distinguished long versus short-term survivors and are robust prognosticators for long term survival. Results have trial design and supportive care implications, providing meaningful prognostic value in this understudied population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Publicly available data on drug sensitivity for cancer cell lines have been curated into a single, integrated database, PharmacoDB. The contributing datasets report modeled estimates of drug effect from high throughput assays. These databases have been informative for developing new broad insights, but the reliability of these data specifically for drugs used to treat ovarian and uterine cancers in related cell lines has not been reported. METHODS In vitro viability assays were performed on A2780, OVCAR-3, TOV-21G, and RL95-2 cells with nine drugs to produce high resolution exposure-response curves. Lab generated data were compared to publicly available datasets by IC20, IC50, and IC80 values, and the area between the logarithmic logistic regression curves. RESULTS For exposure-response curve comparisons with clinically indicated drugs between lab generated and publicly available data, the majority had area-between-curves less than 20%, indicating similarity. However, 15 out of 40 of these dataset curves were incomplete as indicated by the lack of, or extrapolated, IC50 value. The common ovarian and uterine cancer drug, carboplatin, exemplified this incomplete status as all of the available dataset curves were incomplete and therefore non-informative. CONCLUSIONS For gynecologic malignancy cell line models, experimental drug sensitivity data is comparable to the available data in PharmacoDB when exposure-response curves are complete. Incomplete exposure-response curves due to incomplete concentration ranges tested and related extrapolation of IC values can mislead individual drug/cell line pair data for downstream applications.

Abstract
Cancer has no borders: Generation and analysis of molecular data across multiple centers worldwide is necessary to gain statistically significant clinical insights for the benefit of patients. Here we conceived and standardized a proteotype data generation and analysis workflow enabling distributed data generation and evaluated the quantitative data generated across laboratories of the international Cancer Moonshot consortium. Using harmonized mass spectrometry (MS) instrument platforms and standardized data acquisition procedures, we demonstrate robust, sensitive, and reproducible data generation across eleven international sites on seven consecutive days in a 24/7 operation mode. The data presented from the high-resolution MS1-based quantitative data-independent acquisition (HRMS1-DIA) workflow shows that coordinated proteotype data acquisition is feasible from clinical specimens using such standardized strategies. This work paves the way for the distributed multi-omic digitization of large clinical specimen cohorts across multiple sites as a prerequisite for turning molecular precision medicine into reality.

Abstract
Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma is a highly lethal tumor that displays extensive molecular heterogeneity of which deep characterization may drive therapeutic development and improve clinical outcomes. Through the Applied Proteogenomics Organizational Learning and Outcomes (APOLLO) research network, we utilized five molecular profiling technologies (DNA whole genome sequencing, RNA sequencing, total and phospho-proteomics by mass spectrometry, and reverse phase protein arrays [RPPA]) to characterize a longitudinally-annotated cohort of 87 lung adenocarcinomas. Through whole genome sequencing, we identified molecular signatures from patterns of somatic SNVs, indels, and large structural alterations that stratified tumors into three groups associated with patient smoke exposures. We also identified TP53, EGFR, KRAS, and STK11 as recurrently mutated genes, which together represent 80% of the cohort, in addition to genes mutated in smaller cohort subsets (e.g. RBM10), fusion genes, and pathogenic germline variants. To characterize tumor proteomes, we quantified >7,000 proteins and >10,000 phosphopeptides by mass spectrometry and >300 species by RPPA. Matched RNAs and proteins were typically positively correlated across samples (median ρ = 0.49). Through quantitative trait loci analyses, we identified genes whose RNA and protein expression levels were significantly modified by somatic mutations. We then classified tumors into RNA expression subtypes and found coordinated proteogenomic alterations and distinct clinical associations: terminal respiratory unit subtype – EGFR mutations and RNA/protein overexpression, acinar histology, non-smokers; proximal-proliferative subtype – STK11 mutations and RNA/protein underexpression, high smoking signature; proximal-inflammatory subtype – high tumor mutational burden. We also identified phospho-peptide signatures associated with these subtypes, including downregulation of CDK1/2 targets in terminal respiratory unit tumors. Protein co-expression network analysis discovered biologically-diverse pathway activities of the RNA expression subtypes. To interrogate somatic mutations in the context of molecular pathways, we projected DNA alterations onto known interaction networks and identified four subtypes with markedly distinct proteomic and microenvironment characteristics. Finally, several molecular characteristics were found to significantly predict patient outcomes, including RNA expression subtype classification against metastasis-free survival. Thus, our integrative, proteogenomic characterization of lung adenocarcinoma uncovered novel tumor biology and identified potential molecular markers for predicting patient outcomes.

Abstract
Abstract
Combined use of new molecular diagnostic and imaging methods could improve care of individual patients with rare cancers.
A 57-year-old developed apocrine adenocarcinoma of the left axilla with regional lymph node metastasis detected at initial surgery. After adjuvant regional radiotherapy, metastases developed and over the subsequent 7 years he received serial systemic therapy with 11 different regimens. Expression of 128 proteins/phosphoproteins was evaluated in 8 tissue samples from diagnosis, progressive adenopathy at 45 months, brain metastases at 60 months, and abdominal metastases at 63 months by CLIA-standardized reverse phase phosphoprotein arrays (RPPA). Tumor burden was estimated by quantifying the volume of individual lesions with semi-automated segmentation algorithms on serially collected CT images.
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) revealed a PIK3CA K111T mutation, prompting treatment with sirolimus 28 months after diagnosis. Seventeen months later, new neoplastic adenopathy emerged. NGS revealed a new PIK3CA M610V mutation. Semiquantitative scoring of RPPA demonstrated relative increase in AKT (from 0.72 to 0.9) and mTOR (from 0.55 to 0.8) pathway activation. The relative estimated tumor burden (RETB) was 21,145 mm3. Over 6 months of docetaxel therapy the RETB decreased to 12,077 mm3. The patient subsequently received pembrolizumab with increased RETB (71,308 mm3). Gemcitabine appeared to stabilize the RETB (73,168 mm3), but brain metastases emerged. The patient underwent craniotomy, began paclitaxel therapy, and then RETB declined to 35,623 mm3. But new symptomatic abdominal metastases prompted surgical resection. The patient then received the PI3K inhibitor taselisib; however, after an initial decrease, RETB rose to 31,208 mm3.
At this point, the patient began bicalutamide therapy. NGS of the primary mass and the initial metastatic adenopathy revealed no amplification of the androgen receptor (AR). But RPPA demonstrated inversion of the ratio of measured phosphorylated AR S81 to AR S650, suggesting primarily cytoplasmic AR in tumor through 45 months but nuclear AR in samples resected at 60 and 63 months. Immunohistochemistry revealed 3+ nuclear AR expression in the latter metastatic tissue. After 9 months of bicalutamide, enzalutamide and leuprolide were administered for 7 months (final RETB = 1,555 mm3). Treatment continued beyond the study period.
Tumor burden assessment by new CT imaging measurement methods, combined with RPPA could improve adaptive, responsive, therapy for patients with rare tumors. We identified the phenotypic evolution of androgen-driven growth of apocrine adenocarcinoma after cytotoxic and PI3K-mTOR inhibitor therapy. Protein-based diagnostics revealed an effective treatment strategy in late metastatic disease that was not indicated by NGS testing.

Abstract
Abstract
Models that accurately reflect patient drug response are essential for the clinical design of personalized treatment plans and necessary for preclinical drug development. The advancement of predictive models for rare tumor types is impeded in part, by the relative scarcity of fresh tumor tissue available for study. To address the problem of tissue availability we have developed a label-free, combined functional and chemical selection method for the isolation of rare tumor cancer stem cells (CSC) and circulating tumor cells (CTC) from primary patient tissue and blood. Enriched cells were expanded as 3D microtumors under optimized conditions, validated as CSC through in vivo tumorigenesis studies, and characterized by correlative genomic, proteomic/phosphoproteomic, and phenomic analysis. We found isolation and expansion by this method yielded a source of primary cells suitable for live, cell-based predictive drug screening in multiple rare tumor derived models of neuroendocrine and mesenchymal origin, including locally or regionally advanced and metastatic SCLC, recurrent Merkel Cell Carcinoma, recurrent osteosarcoma and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. The 3DKUBE™ rare tumor assay was performed using validated CSCs cultured as perfused 3D microtumors (pMTs). Drug studies using the perfused, 3DKUBE™ rare tumor assay modeled individual patient response better than CSC-based or 3D static microtumor-based drug screens and thus demonstrate the effectiveness of this platform for predictive modeling of individual patient drug response. Taken together, this system provides a means of performing ex vivo drug response experiments on very small tissue samples, including core biopsies, with relevant results for patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Prior molecular characterization efforts for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) were restricted to those who had upfront surgical debulking with variable treatment paradigms. Thus, we sought to examine molecular and cellular differences between clinically defined groups (tumor tissues from patients who had complete gross resection (CGR) versus those who were triaged to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and experienced either excellent or poor response.
Methods: Tumor biopsies were collected from three patient groups managed under a systematic surgical algorithm: CGR after primary surgery (R0, n=10); poor tumor response to NACT (NACT-PR, n=10); excellent tumor response to NACT (NACT-ER, n=10). Primary and multiple metastatic tumor sites per each patient were obtained pre-treatment and subjected to comprehensive omics analyses including high-pass whole-genome (WGS) and targeted deep DNA sequencing.
Results: An average of 71 nonsynonymous somatic mutations from each sample for 75 samples with high-purity tumors (≥75%) by WGS were identified from each sample for the entire cohort. Fourteen ovarian-cancer-associated genes were found mutated in our patient cohort and, as expected, the most frequently mutated gene was TP53 in both primary and metastatic sites in all three groups. TP53 nonsense mutations were exclusively identified in the NACT-ER (36.0%) and NACT-PR groups (15.4%), while in the R0 group most TP53 mutations were missense mutations (62.5%). Nonsense mutations in CSMD3 and PIK3CA were exclusively identified in both primary and metastatic sites in the NACT-PR group. The most frequent copy number variations (CNVs) in the R0 were copy number gain/loss of CSMD3 (67%) and copy number loss of NF1 (54%) and CDK12 (50%) in both primary and metastatic sites. Interestingly, copy number losses of NF1 were significantly lower in the NACT groups (18%, p=0.002), especially in the NACT-PR (8%, p=0.0004), when compared to the R0 group (54%). We also identified significant less observation of chromothripsis-like patterns, and a significantly higher level of strong-binding neoantigens in the R0 than in the NACT groups.
Conclusions: Our findings using HGSOC samples obtained from patients treated on a prospective algorithm identified distinct molecular abnormalities, and could have prognostic and therapeutic implications for patients with HGSOC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between CT imaging traits and texture metrics with proteomic data in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). METHODS This retrospective, hypothesis-generating study included 20 patients with HGSOC prior to primary cytoreductive surgery. Two readers independently assessed the contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) images and extracted 33 imaging traits, with a third reader adjudicating in the event of a disagreement. In addition, all sites of suspected HGSOC were manually segmented texture features which were computed from each tumor site. Three texture features that represented intra- and inter-site tumor heterogeneity were used for analysis. An integrated analysis of transcriptomic and proteomic data identified proteins with conserved expression between primary tumor sites and metastasis. Correlations between protein abundance and various CT imaging traits and texture features were assessed using the Kendall tau rank correlation coefficient and the Mann-Whitney U test, whereas the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was reported as a metric of the strength and the direction of the association. P values < 0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS Four proteins were associated with CT-based imaging traits, with the strongest correlation observed between the CRIP2 protein and disease in the mesentery (p < 0.001, AUC = 0.05). The abundance of three proteins was associated with texture features that represented intra-and inter-site tumor heterogeneity, with the strongest negative correlation between the CKB protein and cluster dissimilarity (p = 0.047, τ = 0.326). CONCLUSION This study provides the first insights into the potential associations between standard-of-care CT imaging traits and texture measures of intra- and inter-site heterogeneity, and the abundance of several proteins. KEY POINTS • CT-based texture features of intra- and inter-site tumor heterogeneity correlate with the abundance of several proteins in patients with HGSOC. • CT imaging traits correlate with protein abundance in patients with HGSOC.

Abstract
Tumor eradication may be greatly improved by targeting cancer stem cells (CSCs), as they exhibit resistance to conventional therapy. To gain insight into the unique biology of CSCs, we developed patient-derived xenograft tumors (PDXs) from ER- breast cancers from which we isolated mammospheres that are enriched for CSCs. Comparative global proteomic analysis was performed on patient tumor tissues and corresponding PDXs and mammospheres. Mammospheres exhibited increased expression of proteins associated with de novo cholesterol synthesis. The clinical relevance of increased cholesterol biosynthesis was verified in a large breast cancer cohort showing correlation with shorter relapse-free survival. RNAi and chemical inhibition of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway reduced mammosphere formation, which could be rescued by a downstream metabolite. Our findings identify the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway as central for CSC propagation and a potential therapeutic target, as well as providing a mechanistic explanation for the therapeutic benefit of statins in breast cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
Though the necessity for ovarian cancer detection at earlier stages has long been acknowledged, biomarker-based discoveries have yielded underwhelming outcomes. The failures of CA-125 and other approaches have raised concern over the sensitivity and robustness of serum biomarkers. However, the discovery that most ovarian cancers originate in the fallopian tube may offer a unique opportunity; since the natural washdown of fallopian tube cells and debris travels through the uterus and into the cervix and vagina, we hypothesized that biomarkers may be concentrated in these proximal fluids. Though we previously demonstrated that tumor DNA is present in the vaginal tract of ovarian cancer patients, the deep sequencing required and low sensitivity (60%) render it insufficient for clinical use. Therefore, we examined other potential biomarkers with high stability that are detectable with methods that are cost effective and noninvasive, such as endocervical sampling. We performed mass spectroscopy on 41 endocervical cytobrush (ECC) samples and found the greatest discriminating pathway between ovarian cancer and benign patients was exosomal composition and trafficking (p=1.3 × 10−21). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are common exosomal cargo, boast high extracellular stability in bodily fluids, and govern a multitude of cellular processes that can influence ovarian cancer initiation and progression. We therefore used NanoString to perform comprehensive miRNA profiling in matched ECC and plasma samples from high-grade serous ovarian cancer and normal patients. We discovered 13 significant differentially expressed ECC miRNAs and 7 plasma miRNAs individually capable of distinguishing cancer from normal. Not only did ECC samples yield a higher number of significant hits than plasma samples, but these hits also showed better sensitivity and specificity as assessed through their concordance index (c-index) scores generated by area under receiver operator curve analysis (c-index averages of 0.9141 in ECC vs. 0.8796 in plasma). 3 miRNAs overlapped between ECC and plasma, and in each case higher c-index scores were present in ECC samples than in plasma. ECC samples also showed more dramatic differences in expression between cancer and benign (1.4 log2 fold change in ECC vs. 0.8 log2 fold change in plasma), suggesting ECC may yield more consistent and detectable differences in miRNA expression than its plasma counterpart. The miRNAs discovered in our ECC samples showed individual sensitivities and specificities that lie within 95% confidence intervals, indicating potential for a viable positive predictive value for a clinical screening test. Crucial next steps are to validate these data in a larger cohort and determine if a similar distinguishing signature is present in the earliest events in fallopian tube transformation. Together, these data support further investigation of proximal tissue sampling for detection of ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Abstract
CARD19 is a mitochondrial protein of unknown function; gene expression databases indicate that CARD19 is highly expressed in myeloid cells. We have observed that Card19 −/− mice injected with LPS display elevated levels of some pro-inflammatory cytokines relative to Card19 +/+ mice. Because CARD19 is a mitochondrial protein and mitochondrial dysfunction is frequently associated with immune dysregulation and chronic inflammation, we sought to identify the function of CARD19 in macrophages. We demonstrated via super resolution microscopy that endogenous CARD19 colocalizes with mitochondrial markers in bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs) and has a punctate distribution. Through immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analyses, we determined that CARD19 interacts with MIC19 and other components of the mitochondrial contact site and cristae organizing system (MICOS) complex. We further demonstrated that CARD19 colocalizes with MIC19 in mitochondrial sub-domains via super resolution microscopy. We then measured outcomes of mitochondrial stress in BMDMs. Consistent with previous reports of MICOS deficiencies, we found that Card19 −/− BMDMs have a modestly decreased oxygen consumption rate (OCR) measured by a Seahorse extracellular flux analyzer relative to Card19 +/+ BMDMs. Additionally, Card19 −/− BMDMs display elevated levels of mitochondrial reaction oxygen species (mROS) and a population of mitochondria with a decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, as measured by flow cytometry. Based on these data, we propose that CARD19 may be a previously unknown regulator of MICOS function which potentially links this complex to other mitochondrial and/or non-mitochondrial CARD proteins in macrophages.

Abstract
The diversity and heterogeneity within high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC), which is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy, is not well understood. Here, we perform comprehensive multi-platform omics analyses, including integrated analysis, and immune monitoring on primary and metastatic sites from highly clinically annotated HGSC samples based on a laparoscopic triage algorithm from patients who underwent complete gross resection (R0) or received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) with excellent or poor response. We identify significant distinct molecular abnormalities and cellular changes and immune cell repertoire alterations between the groups, including a higher rate of NF1 copy number loss, and reduced chromothripsis-like patterns, higher levels of strong-binding neoantigens, and a higher number of infiltrated T cells in the R0 versus the NACT groups.

Abstract
Reversible protein phosphorylation represents a key mechanism by which signals are transduced in eukaryotic cells. Dysregulated phosphorylation is also a hallmark of carcinogenesis and represents key drug targets in the precision medicine space. Thus, methods that preserve phosphoprotein integrity in the context of clinical tissue analyses are crucially important in cancer research. Here we investigated the impact of UV laser microdissection (UV LMD) and IR laser capture microdissection (IR LCM) on phosphoprotein abundance of key cancer signaling protein targets assessed by reverse-phase protein microarray (RPPA). Tumor epithelial cells from consecutive thin sections obtained from four high-grade serous ovarian cancers were harvested using either UV LMD or IR LCM methods. Phosphoprotein abundances for ten phosphoproteins that represent important drug targets were assessed by RPPA and revealed no significant differences in phosphoprotein integrity from those obtained using higher-energy UV versus the lower-energy IR laser methods.

Racial disparities in uterine and ovarian carcinosarcoma: A population-based analysis of treatment and survival. Gynecol Oncol 2020; 157:67-77. [PMID: 32029291 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2020.01.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [What about the content of this article?

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate racial disparities in uterine carcinosarcoma (UCS) and ovarian carcinosarcoma (OCS) in Commission on Cancer®-accredited facilities. METHODS Non-Hispanic Black (NHB) and non-Hispanic White (NHW) women in the National Cancer Database diagnosed with stage I-IV UCS or OCS between 2004 and 2014 were eligible. Differences by disease site or race were compared using Chi-square test and multivariate Cox analysis. RESULTS There were 2830 NHBs and 7366 NHWs with UCS, and 280 NHBs and 2586 NHWs with OCS. Diagnosis of UCS was more common in NHBs (11.5%) vs. NHWs (3.7%) and increased with age (P < .0001). OCS diagnosis remained <5% in both races and all ages. NHBs with UCS or OCS were more common in the South and more likely to have a comorbidity score ≥ 1, low neighborhood income and Medicaid or no insurance (P < .0001). Diagnosis at stage II-IV was more common in NHBs than NHWs with UCS but not OCS. NHBs with both UCS and OCS were less likely to undergo surgery and to achieve no gross residual disease with surgery (P = .002). Risk of death in NHB vs. NHW patients with UCS was 1.38 after adjustment for demographic factors and dropped after sequential adjustment for comorbidity score, neighborhood income, insurance status, stage and treatment by 4%, 16%, 7%, 19% and 10%, respectively, leaving 43.5% of the racial disparity in survival unexplained. In contrast, risk of death in NHBs vs. NHWs with OCS was 1.19 after adjustment for demographic factors and became insignificant after adjustment for comorbidity. Race was an independent prognostic factor in UCS but not in OCS. CONCLUSIONS Racial disparities exist in characteristics, treatment and survival in UCS and OCS with distinctions that merit additional research.
