| Abstract | Background Due to the blood-brain barrier, plasma is not an ideal source to evaluate the genetic characteristics of central nervous system tumors. Thus, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is becoming an alternative biopsy type to evaluate the genetic landscape of intracranial tumors. We aimed to explore the genetic profiles of CSF-derived circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) to predict intracranial tumor responses and monitor mutational evolution during the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with brain metastases. Methods We conducted a prospective study of 92 newly diagnosed NSCLC patients with brain metastases. Paired CSF and plasma samples were collected at baseline, 8 weeks after treatment initiation, and disease progression. All samples underwent next-generation sequencing of 425 cancer-related genes. Results At baseline, the positive detection rates of ctDNA in CSF, plasma, and extracranial tumors were 63.7% (58/91), 91.1% (82/90), and 100% (58/58), respectively. A high level of genetic heterogeneity was observed between paired CSF and plasma, while concordance in driver mutations was also observed. A higher number of unique copy number variations was detected in CSF-ctDNA than in plasma. ctDNA positivity of CSF samples at baseline was associated with poor outcomes (HR=2.565, P=0.003). Moreover, patients with ≥ 50% reductions in the concentrations of CSF ctDNA after 8 weeks of treatment had significantly longer intracranial progression-free survivals (PFS) than patients with < 50% reductions in CSF ctDNA concentrations (13.27 months vs 6.13 months, HR=0.308, P=0.017). A ≥ 50% reduction in CSF ctDNA concentrations had better concordance with radiographic intracranial tumor responses than plasma. A ≥ 50% reduction in plasma ctDNA concentrations was also associated with longer extracranial PFS (11.57 months vs 6.20 months, HR=0.406, P=0.033). Based on clonal evolution analyses, the accumulation of subclonal mutations in CSF ctDNA was observed after 8 weeks of treatment. The clonal mutations that remained in more than 80% in CSF after 8 weeks also predicted shorter intracranial PFS (HR=3.785, P=0.039). Conclusions CSF ctDNA exhibited unique genetic profiles of brain metastases, and dynamic changes in CSF ctDNA could better predict intracranial tumor responses and track clonal evolution during treatment in NSCLC patients with brain metastases.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
