• shallow WGS and deep targeted panel on ctDNA in rhabdomyosarcomas

  The genomic spectrum of rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) progression from primary to relapse is not fully understood. In this study we investigate 35 patients with relapsed RMS from two contributing institutions, 18 fusion-positive (FP-RMS) and 17 fusion-negative RMS (FN-RMS). Targeted DNA or whole exome sequencing (WES) was used to detect alterations in paired primary/relapsed samples. In 10 cases, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) from multiple timepoints through clinical care and progression was analyzed for feasibility of liquid biopsy in monitoring treatment response/relapse. ctDNA alterations were evaluated using a targeted custom RMS panel (36 genes) at high coverage for single nucleotide variation and fusion detection, and a shallow whole genome sequencing for copy number variation. FP-RMS had a stable genome with relapse, with the most common secondary alterations : CDKN2A/B, MYCN and CDK4 alterations, being already present at diagnosis and impacting overall survival. FP-RMS lacking major secondary events at baseline acquired recurrent MYCN and AKT1 alterations. FN-RMS acquired a higher number of new alterations, most commonly SMARCA2 missense mutations. ctDNA analyses detected pathognomonic variants in all RMS patients at diagnosis, regardless of FP/FN or type of alterations, while at relapse selected alterations were confirmed in 86% of FP-RMS and 100% FN-RMS. Moreover, a higher number of fusion reads was detected with increased disease burden and at relapse in patients following a fatal outcome. These results underscore patterns of tumor progression within a relatively stable genomic landscape and provide rationale for using liquid biopsy to monitor treatment response.

• Clinical relevance of somatic copy-number alterations in plasma circulating tumor DNA from advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients treated with osimertinib

  Background: Somatic copy-number alterations (SCNAs) are associated with drug resistance in patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The purpose of our study was to assess the clinical relevance and development of genome-wide SCNAs in plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) under osimertinib therapy.Methods: We included 43 patients with advanced EGFR T790M-positive lung adenocarcinoma who were treated with osimertinib after progression under previous EGFR-TKI therapy. We performed genomic profiling of ctDNA in plasma samples from each patient obtained pre-osimertinib and after patients developed resistance to osimertinib. SCNAs were detected by shallow whole-genome plasma sequencing and EGFR mutations were assessed by droplet digital PCR.Results: SCNAs in resistance-related genes (rrSCNAs) were detected in 10 out of 39 (25.6%) evaluable patients before start of osimertinib. The presence of rrSCNAs in plasma before initiation of osimertinib therapy was associated with a lower response rate to osimertinib (50% versus 86%, p=0.02) and was an independent predictor for shorter progression-free survival (adjusted HR 3.26, 95% CI 1.37-7.75, p=0.008) and overall survival (adjusted HR 2.41, 95% CI 1.09-5.34, p=0.03).Conclusions: Genomic profiling of plasma ctDNA is clinically relevant and affects the efficacy and clinical outcome of osimertinib. Our approach allows comprehensive assessment of SCNAs in plasma samples of lung adenocarcinoma patients and may help to guide genotype-specific therapeutic strategies in the future.

• CLL_cancer_Sample_Sequencing

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from CLL cancer samples and subjected to total of eight lanes of 37 bp, paired end sequencing on the llumina GA. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• To reveal the spectrum of gene mutations in grade II/III gliomas, whole exome sequencing of 52 samples including 4 multi-regional and 10 multi-time points sampling cases and 293 SNP-array were performed.

  To reveal the spectrum of gene mutations in grade II/III gliomas, whole exome sequencing of 52 samples including 4 multi-regional and 10 multi-time points sampling cases and 293 SNP-array were performed. Our analysis revealed high degrees of temporal/spatial heterogeneity generated during tumor expansion and relapse.

• We performed whole-exome sequencing and whole epigenome sequencing (RRBS) of samples collected from different time points during radiotherapy from thirty-four ESCC patients. We compared the genetic and epigenetic features of the different time biopsy samples to reveal the changes in ESCC received radiotherapy.

• CentralAfricanCMC_Pemberton

  The CentralAfricanCMC_Pemberton dataset encompasses 153,798 SNPs from the Illumina Cardio-MetaboChip (Voight et al. 2012) genotyped in 406 individuals from 19 Central African Populations from Gabon, Cameroon, Centralafrican Republic and Uganda). Individual phenotypic and cultural information at the individual level for this data set encompass gender, lifestyle (hunter-gatherer or farmer), and, when available, stature phenotype (standing height in cm, sitting-height in cm, and weight in kg). Other cultural, linguistic, and geographical location information about the sampled populations can be found in Pemberton et al. , Human Genetics, 2018 (https://doi.org/10.1007/s00439-018-1902-3).This dataset can only be accessed and used for non-commercial research purposes with a finality complying with the informed consent provided by Central African donors for the study of human evolutionary history only.

• The mutational landscape and its longitudinal dynamics in relapsed and refractory Hodgkin lymphoma

  In classical Hodgkin-lymphoma (cHL), only a few cases recur, and only a limited fraction of patients is primary-refractory to standard-polychemotherapy. Underlying genomic features of unfavorable clinical courses remain sparsely characterized. Here, we investigated the genomic characteristics of primary-refractory/relapsed cHL in contrast with long-term-responders (LTR). In total, data from 84 samples were submitted.

• Lipomatous tumors with 12q amplification

  The project concerns whole genome sequencing (short-read and long-read) and RNA-sequencing of lipomatous tumors with 12q-amplification. A subset of lipomatous tumors is driven by amplification of genes mapping to chromosome arm 12q, including the MDM2 gene. The goals of the study were to compare expression levels of genes mapping to 12q in tumors with amplification in rod-shaped or circularized chromosomes as well as to assess and compare the structural variants in those tumors. In total, 20 samples were analyzed, and the data were correlated with genomic data on bulk and single cell DNA from the same tumors. The fastq files from the tumors were uploaded to EGA.

• Genomic and Transcriptomic Landscape of Fibrolamellar Hepatocellular Carcinoma

  Fibrolamellar hepatocellular carcinoma (FL-HCC) is a rare liver tumor primarily affecting adolescents and young adults. Little is known of the molecular pathogenesis. To characterize the disease we performed RNA sequencing and whole genome sequencing on FL-HCC tumors and adjacent normal tissue. The results demonstrate few consistent differences on the chromosomal level and many hundreds of alterations in the expression of RNA transcripts.

• Inherited T Cell Defects: Diagnosis, Mechanisms and Treatments

  Infants with abnormal newborn screen results for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and their parents were enrolled in UCSF IRB approved protocols with informed consent to have molecular and immunologic investigation to determine the cause of the infant's low T lymphocytes. Studies included exome sequencing of DNA from the infant and both parents. Candidate variants were investigated in mouse and zebrafish model organisms.
