Retinoblastoma (RB) is a childhood retinal neoplasm and commonly treated with cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. However, these therapeutic approaches often lead to diverse adverse effects. A precise molecular therapy will alleviate these side effects and offer better treatment outcomes. Over the years, kinases have become potential drug targets in cancer therapy. Hence, we aimed to investigate genetic alterations of putative kinase drug targets in RB. Targeted exome sequencing was performed on 35 RB tumors with paired blood samples using a gene panel consisting of 29 FDA-approved kinase genes. Single nucleotide variants were analyzed for pathogenicity using an in-house pipeline and copy number variations (CNVs) were detected by a depth of coverage and CNVPanelizer. The correlation between genetic changes and clinicopathological features was assessed using GraphPad Prism. Three somatic mutations, two in ERBB4 and one in EGFR were identified. Two of these mutations (ERBB4 c.C3836A & EGFR c.A1196T) were not reported earlier. CNV analysis revealed recurrent gains of ALK, MAP2K2, SRC, STK11, and FGFR3 as well as frequent losses of ATM, PI3KCA and ERBB4. Notably, nonresponsive tumors had a higher incidence of amplifications in clinically actionable genes such as ALK. Moreover, ALK gain and ATM loss were strongly correlated with optic nerve head invasion. In conclusion, our study revealed genetic alterations of druggable kinases in RB, providing preliminary insights for the exploration of kinase-targeted therapy in RB.
