Abstract BACKGROUND: Oncological patients have a higher risk of prolonged SARS-CoV-2 shedding, which, in turn, can lead to evolutionary mutations and emergence of novel viral variants. The aim of this study was to analyze biological samples of a cohort of oncological patients by deep sequencing to detect any significant viral mutations. METHODS: High-throughput sequencing was performed on selected samples from a SARS-CoV-2-positive oncological patient cohort. Analysis of variants and minority variants was performed using a validated bioinformatics pipeline. RESULTS: Among 54 oncological patients, we analyzed 12 samples of 6 patients, either serial nasopharyngeal swab samples or samples from the upper and lower respiratory tracts, by high-throughput sequencing. We identified amino acid changes D614G and P4715L as well as mutations at nucleotide positions 241 and 3037 in all samples. There were no other significant mutations, but we observed intra-host evolution in some minority variants, mainly in the ORF1ab gene. There was no significant mutation identified in the spike region and no minority variants common to several hosts. CONCLUSIONS: There was no major and rapid evolution of viral strains in this oncological patient cohort, but there was minority variant evolution, reflecting a dynamic pattern of quasi-species replication.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
