Grup de Genètica del Càncer Hereditari

El nostre grup se centra a abordar els reptes derivats dels avenços en el diagnòstic de la susceptibilitat hereditària al càncer. En col·laboració amb el programa de càncer hereditari de l’Institut Català d’Oncologia (ICO), estem investigant la complexitat genètica del càncer hereditari mitjançant l’anàlisi multidimensional d’un panell personalitzat, al·lels de risc baix, i estudiant l’impacte psicològic a la nostra població. El nostre objectiu és aplicar els resultats d’aquesta investigació a la pràctica.

La investigació en curs se centra en el paper dels trets de personalitat en la predicció de l’impacte psicològic dels resultats genètics i l’adopció d’estratègies de prevenció. Hem rebut finançament per avaluar l’avaluació del risc genètic de càncer i els enfocaments adaptats al risc de càncer, incloent-hi l’anàlisi de la puntuació de risc poligènic (PRS). Un registre nacional longitudinal de portadors de mutacions incorpora dades prospectives per explorar els resultats sanitaris.

També participem en el desenvolupament clínic d’inhibidors de PARP (PARPi) en càncer de mama gBRCA1/2 primerenc, i de combinacions noves en malaltia avançada. Hem consolidat la nostra col·laboració amb el Grup de Terapèutica Experimental del VHIO, dirigit per Violeta Serra. Això ha donat lloc a una gran col·lecció de xenoempelts derivats de pacients (PDX) amb BRCA1/2 implantats en ratolins atímics. Estem utilitzant aquests models murins per identificar mecanismes de resistència a teràpies dirigides, descobrir nous biomarcadors i avaluar nous tractaments combinatoris en la progressió de la malaltia. El nostre grup ha identificat un biomarcador funcional de la sensibilitat a PARPi que s’ha provat preclínicament. Ara estem validant aquest biomarcador en mostres d’assajos clínics i en la pràctica clínica habitual.

Dirigits per Sara Gutiérrez-Enríquez, cap del nostre laboratori, ens interessem per l’epidemiologia genètica del càncer de mama i ovari hereditari (HBOC). Aquesta investigació ha aportat coneixements clau sobre la caracterització de noves variants patogèniques als gens HBOC i ha proporcionat eines per discriminar i interpretar variants de significat incert (VUS) als gens BRCA1/2. També pretenem desxifrar el paper de les variants intróniques, de splicing i missense als principals gens HBOC i investigar el rendiment de la seqüenciació del genoma complet (WGS) i RNA-seq. En col·laboració amb Jordi Giralt del Grup d’Oncologia Radioteràpica del VHIO (dirigit per Xavier Maldonado), Sara Gutiérrez-Enríquez dirigeix ​​de manera independent una investigació sobre marcadors genètics i cel·lulars predictius de susceptibilitat a la toxicitat clínica induïda per la radioteràpia.

Mantenim el nostre interès en l’epidemiologia genètica del càncer hereditari de mama i ovari (HBOC), dirigit per una de les nostres investigadores sènior, Sara Gutiérrez Enríquez. Aquesta recerca ha fet llum abundant a la caracterització de noves variants patogèniques en els gens de l’HBOC i ha proporcionat eines discriminatòries per interpretar variants de significat incert en els gens BRCA. Ens dediquem a desxifrar el paper de les variants intròniques, d’empalmament i de sentit erroni als principals gens de l’HBOC i investiguem el rendiment de les seqüències d’ARN de lectura llarga. Sara Gutiérrez Enríquez també dirigeix de manera independent la recerca sobre marcadors genètics i cel·lulars predictius de la susceptibilitat a la toxicitat clínica induïda per la radioteràpia.

  • Caracterització de nous gens del càncer hereditari de mama i ovari (HBOC), l’impacte psicològic de les proves multigèniques i la viabilitat de la puntuació de risc poligènic (PRS) en l’HBOC.
  • Focalització en la resposta al dany de l’ADN en el càncer de mama.
  • Implementació de l’assaig RAD51 com a biomarcador clínic per a la teràpia d’iPARP i com a biomarcador de la deficiència de reparació de recombinació homòloga (HRR-D) entre els portadors de mutacions no BRCA i aquells amb variants de significat incert (VUS).
  • Avaluació de l’efecte preventiu del denosumab en la prevenció del càncer de mama en les portadores de la mutació BRCA1 (assaig BRCA-P).
  • Millora del diagnòstic genètic de l’HBOC (recerca translacional en genètica)
  • Identificació de biomarcadors cel·lulars i genòmics com a factors predictius de toxicitat tardana després de la radioteràpia (recerca translacional en genètica).
