OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Distinguishing indolent from aggressive prostate cancer and early identification of men at risk of developing aggressive, metastatic disease is of great importance. We aim to explore the relationship between N-glycan and collagen composition in prostate tumor tissue and the long-term outcome of the disease. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry can be utilized to characterize N-glycan profiles in formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Collagen may also be characterized using ECM-targeted collagenase MALDI imaging. These approaches were used to analyze prostatectomy samples with different clinical outcomes. Tissue microarrays containing tissues from 75 non-progressors (no evidence of disease; NED) and 50 metastatic cases (MET) were examined. From a combined list of 90 N-glycans and 500 collagenase peptides, the average AUC intensity value for each glycan and collagen peptide was extracted and assessed as a predictor of metastatic progression. Ancestral informative markers were analyzed and polygenic hazard risk scores were generated for samples as well. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Three N-glycans and three collagen peptides were found to discriminate between NED and MET cases with statistical significance. The best performing N-glycan was Hex6HexNAc6Fuc1 with an AUC of 0.77 (p<0.001). While the best performing collagen peptide was COL1A2 with an AUC of C 0.77 (p<0.001). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Both a collagen peptide and N-glycan were discovered as promising biomarkers to predict metastasis. Future validation studies are needed to confirm biomarker potential and to determine if the addition of these biomarkers can strengthen current genomic classifier’s ability to predict metastatic prostate cancer.
