<p id="P3">Angiosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy that arises spontaneously or secondarily to ionising radiation or chronic lymphoedema
<sup>
<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
</sup>
. Previous work has identified aberrant angiogenesis, including occasional somatic mutations in angiogenesis signalling genes, as a key driver of angiosarcoma
<sup>
<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
</sup>
. Here, we employed whole genome, exome, and targeted sequencing to study the somatic changes underpinning primary and secondary angiosarcoma. We identified recurrent mutations in two genes,
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
and
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
, which are intimately linked to angiogenesis. The endothelial phosphatase PTPRB, a negative regulator of vascular growth factor tyrosine kinases, harboured predominantly truncating mutations in 10/39 (26%) tumours. PLCG1, a signal transducer of tyrosine kinases, presented with a recurrent, likely activating R707Q missense variant in 3/34 cases (9%). Overall, 15/39 (38%) tumours harboured at least one driver mutation in angiogenesis signalling genes. Our findings inform and reinforce current therapeutic efforts to target angiogenesis signalling in angiosarcoma.</p>

<abstract>
<p id="P3">Angiosarcoma is an aggressive malignancy that arises spontaneously or secondarily to ionising radiation or chronic lymphoedema
<sup>
<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
</sup>
. Previous work has identified aberrant angiogenesis, including occasional somatic mutations in angiogenesis signalling genes, as a key driver of angiosarcoma
<sup>
<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
</sup>
. Here, we employed whole genome, exome, and targeted sequencing to study the somatic changes underpinning primary and secondary angiosarcoma. We identified recurrent mutations in two genes,
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
and
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
, which are intimately linked to angiogenesis. The endothelial phosphatase PTPRB, a negative regulator of vascular growth factor tyrosine kinases, harboured predominantly truncating mutations in 10/39 (26%) tumours. PLCG1, a signal transducer of tyrosine kinases, presented with a recurrent, likely activating R707Q missense variant in 3/34 cases (9%). Overall, 15/39 (38%) tumours harboured at least one driver mutation in angiogenesis signalling genes. Our findings inform and reinforce current therapeutic efforts to target angiogenesis signalling in angiosarcoma.</p>
</abstract>
</article-meta>

<body>
<p id="P4">We performed whole genome sequencing of three angiosarcomas, along with paired normal DNA from the same patients. The somatic mutation burden of the three cases varied from 0.7–2.2 substitutions per megabase and 0.1–0.2 indels per megabase (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD10">Supplementary Fig. 1</xref>
;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD4">Supplementary Table 1</xref>
-
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD8">5</xref>
). Remarkably, in two of the three angiosarcomas we identified truncating mutations in the
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
(
<italic>VE-PTP</italic>
) gene, a tyrosine phosphatase specific to vascular endothelium that inhibits angiogenesis
<sup>
<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
</sup>
. One tumour had a nonsense substitution (p.E1444*) and the other both a nonsense (p.C1693*) and a missense (p.Y309C) mutation.</p>
<p id="P5">To explore this observation further, we extended our investigation to 36 angiosarcomas which we studied by whole exome sequencing (n=8) or by targeted sequencing of 360 cancer genes (n=4;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 6</xref>
) or 28 angiogenesis-related genes (n=24;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD9">Supplementary Table 7</xref>
). The entire footprint of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
was sequenced, to enable the identification of structural rearrangements in addition to coding point mutations. Angiogenesis-related genes were also sequenced in eight epithelioid haemangioendotheliomas, nine Kaposi’s sarcomas, and two haemangiomas.</p>
<p id="P6">In total, we identified 14
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations in 10/39 (26%) angiosarcomas, comprising eight nonsense, two essential splice, a frameshift insertion and three missense variants (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Fig. 1</xref>
). No large deletions or rearrangements were identified, although the presence of small intragenic deletions cannot be excluded. All truncating mutations disrupt the coding sequence of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
before or within the tyrosine phosphatase domain. Two of the missense mutations (Y309C and W130R) lie within the extracellular domain of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
, inhibition of which has been shown to disrupt
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
function
<sup>
<xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
</sup>
. The third missense mutation, P1996L, lies within the tyrosine phosphatase domain. The
<italic>in silico</italic>
variant effect prediction tool, SIFT, ascribes deleterious consequences to these missense variants. No
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations were identified in haemangioendothelioma, Kaposi sarcoma, or in haemangioma. Inactivating
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations are also rare in other cancer types, as documented in COSMIC
<sup>
<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
</sup>
, suggesting that
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
disruption is largely specific to angiosarcoma. Statistical analysis demonstrated that these truncating
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations were extremely unlikely to have accumulated by chance in angisoarcoma (q = 10
<sup>−9</sup>
), suggesting that inactivating
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations are driver events. Notably, all
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations were identified in tumours that were either known to be secondary and / or have
<italic>MYC</italic>
amplification, a biomarker of radiation-associated secondary angiosarcoma
<sup>
<xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
</sup>
(p = 0.005). In this group the prevalence of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations was 45% (10/22 cases).</p>
<p id="P7">Four angiosarcomas harboured two different non-synonymous
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations each, including at least one truncating variant in each case. In two of these cases both mutations were truncating, consistent with biallelic inactivation, suggesting that
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
operates as a recessive cancer gene. In six angiosarcomas there was a single heterozygous
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
variant, 5 truncating and one missense, without evidence of LOH. The presence of a single detectable non-synonymous mutation in 60% of tumours is not unusual for tumour suppressor genes (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD11">Supplementary Fig. 2</xref>
). We analysed published catalogues of somatic mutation from 4,073 tumours to determine the frequency of a second mutation, including LOH, co-occurring with a truncating mutation in established suppressor genes. This analysis indicates that the pattern of mutation we observed in
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
is compatible with a recessive driver mechanism (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD11">Supplementary Fig. 2</xref>
). Nevertheless, we cannot exclude the possibility that other mechanisms such as haploinsufficiency or dominant negative effects are operative.</p>
<p id="P8">
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
, a negative regulator of angiogenesis, is expressed exclusively in vascular endothelium, both during development and in adult tissues
<sup>
<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,
<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
</sup>
. It inhibits VEGFR2, VE-cadherin, and angiopoietin signalling, thus acting as an integral modifier of angiogenesis
<sup>
<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
,

,
<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>

. In
<italic>in vitro</italic>
models of angiogenesis, PTPRB inhibition increases angiogenesis
<sup>

.
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
null mice die
<italic>in utero</italic>
and display severe vascular malformations
<sup>
<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
</sup>
. Although the role of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
as a negative regulator of angiogenesis is well established, it is not known whether
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
driven angiogenesis can be inhibited through pharmacological VEGF inhibition. Consequently, we investigated the effects of knockdown of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
on primary cultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Silencing of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
via siRNA induced features of angiogenesis such as spheroid sprouting after 24 hours and spindle-like morphology. In the presence of sunitinib or vatalinib, inhibitors of VEGFR2 kinase, these features were abolished (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2</xref>
;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD2">Supplementary Figure 3</xref>
). These findings in HUVEC, a model of vascular endothelium, provide a rationale for exploring whether
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutation status correlates with treatment response to anti-angiogenic agents.</p>
<p id="P9">To explore the contribution of other genes in angiosarcoma we analysed variant data from 15 angiosarcomas interrogated by whole genome, exome, or cancer gene sequencing (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Fig. 3</xref>
). Cancer genes mutated in more than one tumour included
<italic>TP53</italic>
(3/15 cases; 20%),
<italic>KDM6A</italic>
(2/15 cases; 13%), and
<italic>MYC</italic>
(6/15 cases; 40%). Strikingly, we also identified a recurrent missense variant, R707Q, in
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
, in 3/15 cases (20%).
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
encodes phospholipase C gamma 1 (PLCγ1), a tyrosine kinase signal transducer within the phosphoinositide signalling pathway. Statistical analysis showed that the enrichment of R707Q mutation in angiosarcoma is highly significant (q = 0.000002). Capillary sequencing of an additional 15 cases of angiosarcoma indicated that the overall prevalence of R707Q mutations was 9% (3/34 cases). No
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
mutations were found in any of the other tumour types investigated here. Notably, all three
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
R707Q mutations co-occurred with
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
mutations.</p>
<p id="P10">The presence of a single recurrent R707Q missense variant suggests that
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
is activated in angiosarcoma. Arginine 707 lies within the auto-inhibitory cSH2 domain of PLCγ1
<sup>
<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
-
<xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
</sup>
and provides structural support to this domain.
<italic>In silico</italic>
modelling of the mutated protein predicts that the substituted glutamine destabilises the cSH2 domain which may result in overactive PLCγ1 (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD3">Supplementary Fig. 4</xref>

, and whole RNA sequencing of four angiosarcomas, including two positive for

R707Q, demonstrated
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
expression in each case. In the context of existing knowledge about
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
, our observations therefore lend support to the hypothesis that activated
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
drives angiosarcoma, downstream of receptor tyrosine kinases, through constitutive activation of angiogenesis signalling. The effects of
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
mutations on the response to therapeutics targeting tyrosine kinases will be an important future investigation.</p>
<p id="P11">In addition to 15 angiosarcomas screened for driver mutations, we performed a focused screen for mutations in angiogenesis-related genes (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 6</xref>
) in a further 24 angiosarcomas. Considering both cohorts together, 15/39 angiosarcomas harbour at least one mutation in an angiogenesis-related gene highlighting aberrant angiogenesis as a common driver in a subset of tumours. Mutated genes included
<italic>H/K/N-RAS</italic>
(5/39 cases),
<italic>PIK3CA</italic>
(1/39 cases), and
<italic>FLT4</italic>
(1/39 cases). We did not find variants in
<italic>VEGFR2 (KDR)</italic>
that have previously been reported
<sup>
<xref rid="R23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
</sup>
(
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD4">Supplementary Table 1</xref>
). Amongst other vascular tumours we identified one Kaposi sarcoma (n=9) with a
<italic>PIK3CA</italic>
and one epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (n=8) with a
<italic>PTEN</italic>
driver mutation (
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD4">Supplementary Table 1</xref>
). Interestingly, in our series aberrant angiogenesis was most frequent amongst secondary and/or MYC-amplified angiosarcomas (12/22 cases), although this observation requires investigation in larger series. There was no evidence of mutual exclusivity of mutations in angiogenesis-related genes (
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Fig. 3</xref>
;
<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD4">Supplementary Table 1</xref>
). In four angiosarcomas we found more than one angiogenesis-related gene mutated, indicating that targeting treatment exclusively at the tyrosine kinase level may not suffice to overcome aberrant angiogenesis.</p>
<p id="P12">As angiosarcoma is a rare tumour, combined efforts to curate larger patient series are required to explore further the somatic changes that underpin its pathogenesis. This study, however, provides a first comprehensive insight into the somatic variation in angiosarcoma and identifies frequent mutations in angiogenesis-related genes in a subset of tumours. The next challenge will be to functionally explore these findings in appropriate angiosarcoma models that accommodate the complexity of the driver landscape we report here. It is now indicated to determine the clinical utility of
<italic>PTPRB</italic>
and
<italic>PLCG1</italic>
as possible biomarkers of secondary disease and as novel therapeutic targets in angiosarcoma.</p>

mutations having occurred by chance, we used the following approach: Using the rates of each mutation class estimated using the aforementioned method, the neutral rate of such an event assuming uniform mutation rates was determined to be 5.905e-06. The probability of seeing this site mutated three times in the coding sequence of 11 samples that were interrogated by unbiased sequencing was therefore approximately 4.57e-14 (cumulative Poisson distribution). Adjusting the p-value for the total number of sites in the exome the q-value for this mutation is 1.49e-06.</p>
<p id="P27">In order to analyse the frequency of two-hits in known tumour suppressor genes we downloaded publicly available catalogues of somatic mutations including copy number data from 4,073 tumours of the Tumour Cancer Gene Atlas consortium (as of November 2013).
