Mutual exclusivity: drivers, pathways, and beyond Teresa Przytycka NIH / NLM / NCBI Cancer drivers, passengers, supporting actors, witnesses • Driver mutations /alterations– mutations contributing to cancer progression • Passenger mutations – neutral mutations accumulating during cancer progression • Challenges in detecting driver mutations: – Heterogeneity - phenotypically similar cancer cases might be caused by different sets of driver mutations – Rare drivers • Best supporting actors (Igor’s talk) • Witnesses (this talk) Cancer driving pathways examples of BRCA mutated genes in their pathway context RAS 1.5% or more PIK3CR1 PTEN PIK3CA CTCF AKT1 MAPK signaling FOXA1 MAP3K1 MAP3K4 SWI/SNF MAP2K4 ARID1A mTOR NCOA3 EP300 CEBPA Mediator complex co –activator /co-repressor MED23 co –activation NCOR1 Mutual exclusivity of cancer drivers Thomas et al 2007 Ciriello, et al., 2012; Vandin, et al., 2012; Szczuret et.al , 2014, 2015 Leiserson, et al., Vadin et al. 2013,2014,2015; Kim et al. 2015 Constantinescu et al. 2015 patients mutations in gene 1 Mutations in gene 2 Explanations • Two drivers dysregulating the same pathway • Each of the drivers corresponds to of a unique cancer type or subtype • Negative genetic interactions between drivers 4 Mutually exclusive pairs often share pathways RAS PIK3CR1 PTEN PIK3CA CTCF AKT1 MAPK signaling FOXA1 MAP3K1 MAP3K4 SWI/SNF MAP2K4 ARID1A mTOR NCOA3 EP300 CEBPA Mediator complex co –activator /co-repressor MED23 co –activation NCOR1 5 Fabio Vandin et al.

Genome Res. 2012;22:375-385 Kim et al. 2016 Introducing a classification of mutual exclusivity Motivation – distinguishing ME between drivers that: • Result in a similar phenotype (WITHIN_ME) • Occur across multiple cancer types (ACROSS_ME) • Between type specific drivers (BETWEEN_ME) Kim et al. ISMB /Bioinformatics 2015 Mutual exclusivity classes in PanCancer context • Within tissue exclusivity WITHIN_ME Traditional permutation test • Across tissues exclusivity ACROSS_ME Type-restricted permutation test • Between tissues exclusivity BETWEEN_ME 12 Traditional, type-oblivious permutation test Kim et al. ISMB /Bioinformatics 2015 WITHIN and ACRPSS ME is biased towards pathway edges 13 Kim et al. ISMB /Bioinformatics 2015 Finding cross-cancer dysregulated modules by combining interaction and ACROSS_ME • Within tissue exclusivity WITHIN_ME Traditional permutation test • Across tissues exclusivity ACROSS_ME Type-restricted permutation test • Between tissues exclusivity BETWEEN_ME Type-oblivious permutation test 14 Finding PanCancer dysregulated pathway - ME Module Cover Approach Optimization problem: Find smallest cost set of modules so that each disease case is covered at least k times Cost is a function of: distance in the network of genes in same module Mutual exclusivity Score of covering edge Optimization problem: unit cost per module Gene cover Kim et al.
