• Whole-genome variant calling of individuals from the study of allergic diseases in the Canary Islands

  Research study of genetic susceptibility and analyses of polygenic risk scores in allergic diseases. The historic influences in the Canary Islanders have resulted in an admixture of European, North Africans and Sub-saharan African genetic ancestries. Genetic risks linked to any of these ancestries could underlie disease peculiarities in the current inhabitants. To leverage genectic ancestry to identify and assess genetic risks in allergic diseases in the Canary Islands, we combine different genomic technologies in case-control studies and reference samples from the three parental populations to characterize and identify genetic risks factors and the intersection with ancestry.

• Feasibility Study to Identify the Optimal Adjuvant Combination Scheme of Ipilimumab and Nivolumab (OpACIN) in resectable stage III melanoma patients

  OpACIN is a feasibility study including 20 patients with palpable stage III melanoma that were 1:1 randomized to receive ipilimumab 3mg/kg and nivolumab 1mg/kg, either 4 courses after surgery (adjuvant arm), or 2 courses prior to surgery and 2 courses post-surgery (neoadjuvant arm). WES and RNA-seq was performed on baseline biopsy material and correlated with outcome of the patients (relapse free survival). TCRseq from baseline tumor samples was used to analyse the top 100 tumor resident clones and analyse their change in PBMC comparing baseline versus week 6 of immunotherapy.

• Mapping_regulatory_variation_in_sensory_neurons_using_IPS_lines_from_the_HIPSCI_project

  Sensory neurons are nerve cells that are activated by sensory input such as heat, light and convey information to the brain. Although a key cell type in complex organisms, human sensory neurons are challenging to study because they are impossible to obtain from living donors. We have collaborated with the Neucentis Pharmaceutical Research Unit to differentiate sensory neuron like cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells derived as part of the Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Initiative. We will sequence RNA from 100 IPS lines derived from healthy individuals and perform RNA-seq on the differentiated cells to identify noncoding variants that alter gene expression in human sensory neurons.

• Molecular profiling of longitudinally observed small colorectal polyps: a cohort study

  Knowledge of the natural history of colorectal adenomas is limited because these lesions are removed upon detection. The few studies in which small adenomas have been left in situ for a limited period of time have shown that most lesions remain stable or even completely vanish. Lesions that have grown in size more often turn out to be advanced adenomas when resected. Specific DNA copy number changes (cancer associated events or CAEs) are associated with progression of adenomas to cancer. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether growth of small colorectal polyps left in situ is associated with specific molecular features.

• CASCADE metastatic melanoma study

  In this study we analyse the evolution of human melanoma from early to late disease in patients by sampling their tumours at multiple sites and times. Whole exome and genome sequencing data from tumour samples reveals only limited gain of point mutations generally, with net mutational loss in some metastases. In contrast, melanoma evolution is dominated by whole genome doubling and large-scale aneuploidy, in which widespread loss of heterozygosity sculpts the burden of point mutations, neoantigens and structural variants even in treatment-naïve and primary cutaneous melanomas in some patients. These results imply that dysregulation of genomic integrity is a key driver of selective clonal advantage during melanoma progression.
