Proteogenomic characterization identifies clinical subgroups in EGFR and ALK wild-type never-smoker lung adenocarcinoma
Patients with lung adenocarcinoma who have never smoked (NSLA) and lack key driver mutations, such as those in the EGFR and ALK genes, face limited options for targeted therapies. They also tend to have poorer outcomes with immune checkpoint inhibitors than lung cancer patients who have a history of smoking. The proteogenomic profile of nonsmoking lung adenocarcinoma patients without these oncogenic driver mutations is poorly understood, which complicates the precise molecular classification of these cancers and highlights a significant area of unmet clinical need. This study analyzed the genome, transcriptome, and LC‒MS/MS-TMT-driven proteome data of tumors obtained from 99 Korean never-smoker lung adenocarcinoma patients. NSLA tumors without EGFR or ALK driver oncogenes were classified into four proteogenomic subgroups: proliferation, angiogenesis, immune, and metabolism subgroups. These 4 molecular subgroups were strongly associated with distinct clinical outcomes. The proliferation and angiogenesis subtypes were associated with a poorer prognosis, while the immune subtype was associated with the most favorable outcome, which was validated in an external lung cancer dataset.
