Cancer development is a complex process influenced by inherited and acquired molecular and cellular alterations. Prevention is the holy grail of cancer eradication, but making this a reality will take a fundamental rethinking based on deep understanding of premalignant biology. Although the seminal multi-step, genetic model of human tumorigenesis was defined in the colorectal adenoma-carcinoma sequence three decades ago, only a handful of sporadic adenomas analyzed by next-generation sequencing (NGS) have been reported, in striking contrast to the wealth of NGS data in cancers. Recent precancer advances include: germline mutation biology driving precision prevention – RANK-L effects on luminal progenitors leading to international trial in BRCA1 carriers, first real signal of potential benefit of early detection research in pancreatic neoplasia, breakthrough trial of combination chemoprevention in familial adenomatous polyposis, and germline/microbiota interactions in intestinal oncogenesis, including in mouse model of Lynch syndrome. Other developments include: novel (e.g., copy number alterations) regulators and imaging of immunosuppressive microenvironments; immune prevention (from HPV to cancer vaccines); mutational signatures; premalignant mutational accumulation in aging, established in clonal hematopoiesis, with recent deep NGS suggesting a more generalized phenomenon; and single-cell analyses of DCIS and Barrett’s esophagus identifying importance of genetic heterogeneity. The challenges are substantial, including hefty computational and data prices for unprecedented whole-genome, single-cell resolution, with population scale data estimates in the exabyte range (>1018 bytes), requiring new computational frameworks. To accelerate the prevention of cancer, this field needs a large-scale, longitudinal national effort, leveraging diverse disciplines, technologies, and models to develop an integrated multi-omics and immunity precancer atlas (PCA), to interrogate and target events that drive oncogenesis.
