Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Lung


Lung squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC) accounts for ~30%
of non-small cell lung cancer

~90% are male smokers
(Korean Cancer Registry)

Despite advances in personalized
treatment of adenocarcinoma,
effective targeted therapies for
SqCC has remained elusive
Currently, lung SqCC lacks any druggable target

FGFR1 is Amplified in Lung Squamous
Cell Carcinoma

Study Purpose

To investigate the frequency and the
prognostic impact of FGFR1 amplification
in surgically resected lung SqCC

To evaluate the association between
smoking does and FGFR1-amplification
Patient and Method

SqCC patients that underwent radical resection of a
primary lung cancer at Severance Hospital between
1998 and 2009.

Selection criteria (n= 262): availability of tumor
tissue from the primary lung cancer, smoking-data,
and survival data

Construct a tissue-microarray with 2-mm diameter
cores (3 cores per tumor)
Gene Copy Number

FGFR1 FISH assay was performed on the tissuemicroarrays using FGFR1-probe that hybridizes to
the band 8p12-8p11.23 with Spectrum Orange (red)
and CEP 8 with Spectrum Green (Abbott Molecular®)

Prespecified Criteria1
 “high-amplification” FGFR1 copy number ≥ 9
 “low-amplification” FGFR1 copy number >2 or <9
 “disomy” FGFR1 copy number = 2

FGFR1 protein & mRNA Expression

IHC analysis was performed using FGFR1 Ab
(Epitomics, Burlingame, CA)
 Only clear membranous staining of the tumor cells was


considered positive and cytoplasmic or granular staining
was considered negative or trace
Scoring system (0-400): % of positive tumor cells (0% to
100%) X dominant staining pattern (1: negative or trace,
2: weak, 3: moderate, 4: intense)
mRNA expression analysis was performed by
QuantiGene Reagent Systems in FFPE tissue
samples

Intratumoral Heterogeneity?
Whole tissue section FISH in 51 randomly selected tumors
(31 high FGFR1-amp, 10 low FGFR1-amp and 10 disomy tumors)
Summary of Whole Tissue Section FISH
 Homogenous FGFR1 distribution in high amplified tumors
- at least 80% of nuclei per area exhibited ≥ 9 copies of FGFR1

Majority of areas displayed low amplified FGFR1 signals In
low amplified tumors

Two FGFR1 signals were homogenously distributed in
disomy cases

No FGFR1 amplification in peritumoral normal tissue

High correlation of FGFR1 GCN between primary & metastatic
lesion1
FGFR1 amplification may be involved not in early
tumorigenesis, but in early disease progression

Conclusion: FGFR1 AmplificationA New “Druggable” Target in SqCC




The first high-frequency (13%) therapeutic target of
smoking-associated SqCC
FGFR1 amplification induced a strong FGFR1
dependency in FGFR1 amplified SqCC
FGFR1 amplification is a negative prognostic factor
in resected lung SqCC
FGFR1-amplification is associated with cigarettesmoking in a dose-dependent manner
 Strongly implies that FGFR1-amplification is an
oncogenic-aberration caused by tobacco-carcinogen
