• GWAS on covid-19 severity and susceptibility in the province of Bergamo, Italy

  This is a case-control GWAS that involved the voluntary recruitment of inhabitants of the Bergamo province via an online questionnaire. We collected detailed clinical data and verified all information through personal interviews. Cases (severe COVID-19; G1) and controls (mild or asymptomatic COVID-19, G2; non-infected, G3) were matched by age, sex and risk factors

• Possible DNA damage after paternal exposure to ionizing radiation in radar technicians

  Effects of accidental and prolonged radiation exposure on the human germline remain a topic of medical interest. Transgenerational signatures of ionizing radiation exposure are primarily implicated to be clustered de-novo mutations (cDNMs, multiple de-novo mutations within 20bp). We sequenced the whole genome of 110 children from 70 families (Radar cohort). The father in this cohort were exposed to 0-353mSv of ionizing radiation and serve as exposed samples.

• Epithelioid haemangioendothelioma (EHE) case series from the Stafford Fox Rare Cancer Program

  Nine EHE cases with comprehensive histologic and molecular profiling from the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research Stafford Fox Rare Cancer Program were collated via nation-wide referral to the Australian Rare Cancer Portal. Molecular analysis of RNA, DNA or both was possible in seven of nine cases. Survival was highly variable and unrelated to molecular profile. DNA sequences for two cases are deposited here.

• RNA sequencing in primary human macrophages overexpressing ETS2

  We investigated an intergenic haplotype on chr21q22, linked to five different inflammatory diseases, and discovered a mechanism that orchestrates macrophage responses during chronic inflammation. We delineated how the risk haplotype increases expression of the causal gene, ETS2, and demonstrated that ETS2 is necessary for inflammatory macrophage effector functions. To establish whether ETS2 is sufficient to drive inflammatory responses, we overexpressed ETS2 in a dose-dependent manner and performed RNA-sequencing to characterise the transcriptional effects.

• To_profile_the_landscape_of_sebaceous_tumours___RNA

  Sebaceous tumours are a rare cutaneous cancer with potential for aggressive behaviour. However, limited information is available on these cancers with few published cases. Here we wish to exome sequence these cancers to define the first genomic landscape for this malignancy. We will extract RNA from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) cores. Cores may be obtained from lesional and non-lesional tissues of primaries as well as matching metastases. The extracted RNA will be used for RNA sequencing.

• RNA-seq study of longitudinal blood cell samples drawn from children at risk of type 1 diabetes

  The appearance of type 1 diabetes (T1D)-associated autoantibodies is the first and only measurable parameter to predict progression toward T1D in genetically susceptible individuals. However, autoantibodies indicate an active autoimmune reaction, wherein the immune tolerance is already broken. Therefore, there is a clear and urgent need for new biomarkers that predict the onset of the autoimmune reaction preceding auto-antibody positivity or reflect progressive b-cell destruction. Here we report the mRNA sequencing-based analysis of 306 samples including fractionated samples of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells as well as CD4, CD8 cell fractions and unfractionated PBMC samples longitudinally collected from seven children who developed beta-cell autoimmunity (case subjects) at a young age and matched control subjects.

• Combinatorial CRISPR screen identifies fitness effects of paralogues FAM50A and FAM50B

  Genetic redundancy has evolved as a way for human cells to survive the loss of genes that are single copy and essential in other organisms, but also allows tumours to survive despite having highly rearranged genomes. In this study we CRISPR screen 1,191 gene pairs, including paralogues and known and predicted synthetic lethal interactions to identify 105 gene combinations whose co-disruption results in a loss of cellular fitness. 27 pairs influence fitness across multiple cell lines including the paralogues FAM50A/FAM50B, two genes of unknown function. Silencing of FAM50B occurs across a range of tumour types and in this context disruption of FAM50A reduces cellular fitness whilst promoting micronucleus formation and extensive perturbation of transcriptional programmes. This dataset includes CRISPR screening of cancer cell lines, RNA sequencing studies of cancer cell lines and also data from the sequencing of tumour xenografts collected from mice.

• Combination Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Australian Rare Cancers_WES

  Combination immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 blockade has demonstrated significant clinical activity across tumour types. Rare cancer patients have limited treatment options due to the scarcity of studies of novel treatment options, so they are often offered chemotherapies untested in their disease. ONJ2016-001/CA209-538 is a prospective, multicentre clinical trial of combination ICI (ipilimumab and nivolumab) in patients with advanced rare cancers, including biliary tract, adrenocortical, rare gynaecological and neuroendocrine cancers (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02923934). The primary endpoint is clinical benefit rate (complete response + partial response + stable disease >3 months) by RECIST 1.1. This study involves generation and analysis of pre-treatment formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumour DNA sequencing data, paired with germline DNA sequencing data, to potentially identify genomic biomarkers that may associate with clinical benefit or other clinical efficacy / toxicity metrics.

• Cholangiocarcinoma

  Arcagen is an EORTC/SPECTA pan-European project that aims to recruit 1000 rare cancer patients from different tumour domains of EURACAN. This study collected samples from advanced or metastatic rare cancer from patients older than 12, and analysed them using Foundation Medicine next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels (FoundationOne CDx for FFPE samples or FoundationOne Liquid CDx for blood samples). Here we are submitting two datasets that contain NGS files from gastrointestinal rare cancers (n=119): - Dataset 2 (87 patients): Intra-hepatic cholangiocarcinoma (n=47), Extra-hepatic, cholangiocarcinoma (n=16), Not specified Cholangiocarcinoma (n=9), Small bowel adenocarcinoma (n=6) and other rare GI cancer (n=9)

• Breast Cancer Single-Cell RNA-Seq Dataset

  Single-cell RNA-Sequencing of 26 primary breast cancers from Wu et al. (2021) study. Data was generated using the Chromium controller (10X Genomics) and sequenced on the NextSeq 500 platform.
