Abstract 1030: Development of a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform for multi-cancer early detection (MCED)

Abstract Background: Plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) tests represent a promising approach for cancer screening. cfDNA methylome approaches are well-suited for MCED; however, different methodologies vary in performance and many tests show decreased performance for early-stage or low-shedding tumors. Here we present a retrospective case-control study evaluating the performance of a novel genome-wide methylome enrichment platform for MCED. Methods: The full cohort (N=4,322) includes cancer cases (individuals with newly diagnosed treatment-naïve cancer) and age- and gender-matched non-cancer controls. Samples were analyzed with a bisulfite-free, non-degradative genome-wide DNA methylation enrichment platform using cfDNA isolated from plasma. Samples were split into distinct sets to train and test a machine learning classifier consisting of differentially methylated regions to distinguish cases from controls. Initial training in 1,536 samples across 8 cancer types is reported here (100 iterations of random splits (80:20) for cross-validation). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) and 95% confidence intervals for the median probabilities are reported in the cross-validation. Results: Cancer cases were distinguished from controls with an AUC of 0.94 (0.93, 0.96), with AUCs for individual cancer types ranging from 0.91 to 0.97. The AUC was 0.94 (0.92, 0.95) for stage I/II cancers and 0.95 (0.94, 0.96) for stage III/IV cancers. The AUC was 0.92 (0.91, 0.94) in the subset of cancers typically considered low shedding, with similar performance for stage I/II (0.91; 0.89, 0.93) and stage III/IV (0.93; 0.91, 0.95) in that subset. Conclusions: Initial analysis of case-control data demonstrates feasibility of a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform for MCED. The high detection of low-shedding and early-stage cancers is promising for MCED applications, as this will be critical for screening to identify cancers for which treatment may be more effective.
