• Accurate detection of tumor-specific fusion genes reveals strongly immunogenic personal neo-antigens

  Fusion genes arising from cancer-associated somatic mutations are a potential rich source for highly immunogenic neo-antigens. However, their exploitation as targets for personalized cancer immunotherapy is currently limited by the lack of computational tools allowing transcriptome-wide identification of unique fusion genes in an accurate and sensitive manner. Here, we present EasyFuse, a computational pipeline, to detect individual and cancer-specific fusion genes in next-generation-sequencing transcriptome data obtained from human cancer samples. Using machine learning, EasyFuse predicts personal fusion genes with high precision and sensitivity and outperforms previously described approaches as qualified by an unprecedented ground-truth dataset of >1500 verification experiments in relevant patient samples. By testing immunogenicity with autologous blood lymphocytes from cancer patients we detected pre-established CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses for 10 of 21 (48%), and for 1 of 30 (3%) of identified fusion genes, respectively. In conclusion, we demonstrate accurate detection of cancer-specific fusion genes. The high frequency of T cell responses detected in cancer patients support the relevance of private fusion genes as neo-antigens for personalized immunotherapies, especially for tumors with low point mutation burdens.

• SARS-CoV2 mRNA-vaccination-induced Immunological Memory in Human Non-Lymphoid and Lymphoid Tissues

  SARS-CoV2 mRNA vaccination-induced CD4+ Th cells were isolated based on activation marker expression from human bone marrow (n=3), lung (n=5), liver (n=4) and paired blood samples (to liver donors, n=4) of virus-naive vaccinees after Spike peptide mix stimulation in vitro. The 10X platform was used for single cell transcriptome analysis, along with T cell receptor clonotype analysis in a total of 1985 cells. Samples were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 (Illumina).

• A National Translational Science Network of Precision-Based Immunotherapy for Primary Liver Cancer (PLC)

  The primary objective of the NCI-CLARITY study is to establish a biospecimen repository for genomic, genetic and epigenetic analysis to study the biology of primary liver cancer (PLC) development and progression. Secondary objectives include predicting overall and progression-free survival following immunotherapy. In the retrospective phase, anonymous archival tissue from PLC patients was obtained from five participating sites. Whole exome and transcriptome sequencing was generated and used to predict overall survival in response to immunotherapy.

• Characterization of Neoantigen-reactive T cells by Single-Cell Analysis

  Through CITE-seq and TCR-seq analysis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), we developed a neoantigen-reactive T-cell signature based on clonotype frequency and CD39 protein and CXCL13 mRNA expression. There are four datasets from four NSCLC cases. Each dataset includes (1) Transcriptome of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), (2) Cell surface protein expression on TIL by Feature barcoding, (3) T-cell receptor analysis of TIL, and (4) Reference file for feature-barcoding antibodies.

• Integrative Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Refractory Multiple Myeloma

  This study reports results from integrative sequencing analyses that combine capture transcriptome sequencing with a comparative analysis of exome capture between the malignant plasma cells and normal cells of patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). This approach has enabled the detection of point mutations, insertions/deletions, gene fusions and rearrangements, amplifications/deletions, and outlier expressed genes among other classes of alterations that contribute to disease progression and drug resistance in the RRMM patients.

• CCG Multicentric Italian Lung Detection (MILD)

  For the CCG-MILD project, NCI will utilize whole genome sequencing and/or whole exome sequencing in conjunction with transcriptome sequencing to try to identify recurrent genetic alterations (mutations, deletions, amplifications, rearrangements) and/or gene expression signatures that would be important to the hypothesis(es) submitted by the investigators. The samples will be processed and submitted for genomic characterization using the established NCI Genome Characterization Pipeline. Subsequent genomic and clinical data will be hosted at the NCI Genomic Data Commons (GDC).

• Single-Cell Genome Sequencing of Gastrointestinal Carcinomas

  We experimentally derived copy number profiles and transcriptome profiles of gastrointestinal cancers using single cell sequencing. Using a microfluidic droplet partitioning system, we isolated individual cells of a suspension from a primary solid tumor into droplets. These droplets tag the resultant genomic or transcriptomic material with an identifying barcode that enables bioinformatic single cell tracking. From this joint analysis, we determined the overall level of genomic instability for gastrointestinal cancers as well as transcriptomic consequences from these events.

• Transcriptome HCCO Hypoxia and Doxorubicin resistance

  We hypothesized that HCCO-intrinsic determinants of response to hypoxia or doxorubicin could be reflected in the gene expression profiles of the HCCOs. Therefore, we selected for comparative transcriptomic analysis two sets of 4 HCCO lines that were severely (hypoxia-sensitive) or barely affected (hypoxia-resistant) by hypoxia in an ATP-based proliferation assay or two sets of 4 HCCO lines whose doxorubicin response curves were clearly separated both under normoxic and hypoxic culture conditions for comparative transcriptomic analysis.

• Application of targeted long-read methylation sequencing to dissected lung cancer tissues

  To investigate DNA methylation patterns within the tumor microenvironment, multiple regions were dissected from fresh-frozen sections of two lung adenocarcinoma specimens using the Millisect system. These regions were annotated based on spatial transcriptome data. DNA samples extracted from these regions were subjected to targeted long-read methylation sequencing using t-nanoEM. To establish a control dataset, short-read whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was performed on the tumor and normal parts, and long-read WGS was performed on the tumor part.

• Transcriptome and epigenomic landscape of cytotrophoblasts from normal and HDP placentas

  Hypertensive isorders of pregnancy (HDP) is a severe pregnancy-related disorder that poses significant risks to both maternal and fetal health. Dysfunctional placental development is one of the major contributors to the onset of HDP. In this study, we investigated the gene expression and epigenomic modifications in cytotrophoblasts from normal and HDP placentas. The information obtained in this study contributes to the growing body of knowledge aimed at improving the diagnosis, management, and treatment of HDP.
