Human epithelial tissues accumulate cancer-driver mutations with age, yet tumor formation remains rare. The positive selection of these mutations argues they alter the behavior and fitness of proliferating cells. Hence, normal adult tissues become a patchwork of mutant clones competing for space and survival, with the fittest clones expanding by eliminating their less-competitive neighbors. However, little is known about how such dynamic competition in normal epithelia influences early tumorigenesis. Here we show that the majority of newly formed esophageal tumors are eliminated through competition with mutant clones in the adjacent normal epithelium. We followed the fate of nascent, microscopic, pre-malignant tumors in a mouse model of esophageal carcinogenesis, finding most are rapidly lost with no indication of tumor cell death, decreased proliferation, or an anti-tumor immune response. However, deep-sequencing of 10-day and 1-year-old tumors showed evidence of selection on the surviving neoplasms. Induction of highly competitive clones in transgenic mice increased early tumor removal, while pharmacologically inhibiting clonal competition reduced tumor loss. These results support a model where survival of early neoplasms depends on their competitive fitness relative to that of mutant clones in the surrounding normal tissue. Mutant clones in normal epithelium have an unexpected anti-tumorigenic role in purging early tumors through cell competition, thereby preserving tissue integrity.
