• Gene expression profile of mesothelial-derived carcinoma-associated fibroblasts

  RNA-sequencing was carried out on ascetic fluid-isolated mesothelial cells from low-grade serous ovarian cancer patients, high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients, chemotherapy-treated high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients and control mesothelial cells obtained from non-oncologic patients to identify differentially expressed genes associated to mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition process. The dataset contains 18 samples: - Control mesothelial cells: 4 samples - Group 1, high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients: 3 samples - Group 2, chemotherapy-treated high-grade serous ovarian cancer patients: 5 samples - Group 3, low-grade serous ovarian cancer patients: 6 samples

• Identification of drug resistance genes in melanoma by small RNAs expression analysis

  We aim to sequence the small RNAs of 22 human melanoma cell lines in biological triplicate in order to define the microRNAs expression profile of each cell line. The data will be correlated to the mutation status and the sensitivity to a panel of drugs in order to identify genes whose deregulation is associated to drug resistance This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/

• Identification of drug resistance genes in melanoma by mRNA gene expression

  We aim to sequence the mRNA transcriptome of 22 human melanoma cell lines in biological triplicate in order to define the gene expression profile of each cell line. The data will be correlated to the mutation status and the sensitivity to a panel of drugs in order to identify genes whose deregulation is associated to drug resistance This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Whole Genome Sequencing of a secondary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)

  Illumina HiSeq sequence data (with >30x coverage) were aligned to the hg19 human reference genome assembly using BWA (Li and Durbin, 2009); duplicate reads were removed from the final BAM file. No realignment or recalibration was performed. Sample derived from secondary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), arising after treatment for medulloblastoma in an 11-year old female Li-Fraumeni syndrome case (LFS-MB1; Rausch et al., 2012; matching WGS data available under EGAS00001000085).

• A Pilot Study of Neoadjuvant Nivolumab, Ipilimumab and Intralesional Oncolytic Virotherapy for HER2-Negative Breast Cancer

  This study was a single arm phase 1 trial that assessed the regimen safety and feasibility as well as tumor response in patients with localized HER2-negative breast cancer treated with talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC) in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab. The primary objective was to evaluate the safety and adverse event profile of this treatment combination. Six patients were enrolled, four having relapses after prior neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and two who were previously untreated. One patient had a pathological complete response, three patients had pathological partial responses, one showed no significant response, and one had disease progression. Biopsies demonstrated increased immune cell infiltration in samples from patients who responded to therapy. In this study, the checkpoint blockade immunotherapy combined with T-VEC provided responses in patients with advanced or relapsed HER2-negative breast cancer at the expense of long-term toxicities.

• Genome Sequencing of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma at The Human Genome Sequencing Center of Baylor College of Medicine (HGSC-BCM)

  Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDAC) is the 11th most common cancer in the USA but the 4th in fatalities. The onset and progression of cancer is driven by extensive rearrangement and mutation of the genome. We combined our capability to capture and enrich exome DNA with the next generation sequencing capacity to allow us to detect and characterize the somatic mutation profile of 24 patients with PDAC. Patient samples were collected by the Elkins Pancreatic Center in the Baylor College of Medicine Department of Surgery. Sequencing of the pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is one of the NHGRI Center Initiated Projects in progress in the Human Genome Sequencing Center at Baylor College of Medicine. These data are also contributed to an ICGC study and will be published with the ICGC collaborators.

• Childhood Cancer Data Initiative (CCDI): OncoKids - NGS Panel for Pediatric Malignancies

  This study aimed to systematically collect clinical, registry and genomic data on pediatric cancer patients, and to contribute to the CCDI Pediatric Data Ecosystem. Clinical, treatment and outcome data on 1,039 pediatric cancer patients whose molecular profile was characterized on OncoKids gene panel at Children's Hospital Los Angeles was abstracted and harmonized for submission to the NCI’s Cancer Data Service. The OncoKids panel was designed to detect DNA mutations and amplification in almost 200 oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes, a limited number of pharmacogenomic targets and 1,700 disease-associated gene fusions at the RNA level. The panel encompasses the vast majority of FDA’s relevant pediatric molecular target list, as well as additional genes associated with ultra-rare pediatric tumors. The final data elements included DNA/RNA sequence data, OncoKids test results, clinical data on demographics, diagnosis, comorbidity and adverse events and treatment data.

• UCSF Center for Reproductive Health (CRH) Research Bank

  The purpose of this study is to provide a reference profile of small extracellular RNAs in body fluids. These samples were originally obtained in a study that had a different purpose. The purpose of the original study was to add excess biological materials during the course of IVF treatment to a tissue bank. These biological materials included follicular fluid (the liquid that comes out of the ovary with the egg), granulosa cells (cells that surround the egg and help it grow), and other biological materials that help eggs, sperm, and embryos stay healthy and grow outside the body. These banked specimens would allow researchers to learn more about infertility and how to treat it, including studying how to identify the healthiest eggs, sperm, and embryos and how to help them stay healthy and grow.

• Methylation-Based Immune Deconvolution in Prostate Cancer Patients Before and After Radical Prostatectomy

  To explore whether surgical treatment for prostate cancer leads to long-term immune changes, we conducted a pilot study of n=11 prostate cancer patients treated with radical prostatectomy. We also included n=8 patients managed with active surveillance as a comparison group. We examined intra-individual changes in circulating immune cell subsets using serial blood samples collected pre- and approximately 6-months post-prostatectomy, and from matched time points for the patients managed on active surveillance. Immune cell subsets were deconvoluted using genome-wide methylation data. We observed no meaningful changes in circulating immune cell subsets in either patient group, suggesting that any surgery-induced immune changes to the circulating immune profile may not be long-lasting. The genome-wide methylation data from the two time points will be made available through dbGaP.

• DNA methylation dynamics during early human development

  DNA methylation is globally reprogrammed during mammalian preimplantation development, which has been well characterized in the mouse but not in other mammals. Here we report on the single base-resolution DNA methylome of human gametes and blastocysts. Near complete demethylation of the paternal genome was apparent, except for tandem repeat-containing CpG-rich regions, whereas the maternal genome was essentially resistant to replication-dependent global demethylation. The human oocyte methylome was characterized by a unique bimodal distribution of gene body methylation, a particular promoter methylation profile and a high proportion of hypomethylated transposable elements. Methylome and transcriptome comparisons between the human and mouse suggested species-specific regulation of many genes including the important DNA methylation regulators. Our findings are essential to understand the unique gene regulatory mechanisms during early human development and will facilitate preimplantation epigenetic diagnosis of human embryos.
