• Multi-omic data of subjects of FUSION study

  Finland-United States Investigation of NIDDM Genetics (FUSION) Study has sought to understand the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and diabetes-related traits including glucose, insulin, lipid levels, and obesity. We have performed extensive multi-omic characterization of the study subjects, including SNP array genotyping, whole genome/exome DNA sequencing of blood/tissue/iPSC cells generated from fibroblast, as well as RNAs. The study has provided crucial data for understanding molecular and cellular mechanisms of the disease-causing variants and their respective target genes. This set of data will be a valuable resource to the T2D community.

• VLAIO DenMark Project Data Access Committee

  The VLAIO DenMark Project Data Access Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving controlled-access requests for human genetic, immunological, omics, and associated phenotype data generated within the VLAIO O&O project HBC.2022.0988, titled “Use of multimodel omics technologies to study Dengue host response markers”. The project is a collaboration between Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, Universiteit Gent, and the Institute of Tropical Medicine Antwerp, covering dengue host-response data generated from human challenge, natural infection, and related biomarker studies. The DAC evaluates whether proposed data use is consistent with participant consent, applicable ethics approvals, data protection requirements, institutional policies, and the data access policy linked to the relevant EGA dataset. Access decisions should be made by the project representatives from Janssen, ITG, and UGent, including Ole Lagatie, Kevin Ariën, and Filip Van Nieuwerburgh. EGA will distribute controlled-access data only upon approval granted by this DAC.

• Plasma Nucleosome Profiling Reports on Tumor Burden and Molecular Subtypes in Small Cell Lung Cancer

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive malignancy with dismal prognosis and marked transcriptional heterogeneity that drives distinct therapeutic vulnerabilities. The clinical translation of these molecular insights is limited by limited access to tumor biopsies. Here, we apply chromatin immunoprecipitation of cell-free nucleosomes carrying active histone modifications followed by sequencing (cfChIP-seq) to 441 plasma samples from individuals with advanced SCLC, other neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC), non-SCLC cancers, and healthy controls. cfChIP-seq faithfully captured the epigenetic and transcriptional landscape of tumor-derived cfDNA, including SCLC tissue/cell-of-origin signatures, and yielded a quantitative score of tumor fraction that tracked radiographic burden and prognosis. Integrating plasma cfChIP-seq with matched tumor transcriptomes (n = 73, including 41 time-matched pairs), we show that cfChIP-seq levels at promoters of lineage-defining transcription factors (ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3, and ATOH1) correlate strongly with tumor RNA and support noninvasive inference of SCLC transcriptional subtypes directly from plasma. These findings establish cfChIP-seq as a practical liquid-biopsy platform that reports real-time tumor state and subtype, enabling precision monitoring and laying the groundwork for subtype-informed therapeutic stratification in SCLC.

  Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling using cfEM-seq and Ultima Genomics sequencing in classic Hodgkin lymphoma. The study includes plasma-derived cell-free DNA from patients with classic Hodgkin lymphoma together with classic Hodgkin lymphoma and anaplastic large cell lymphoma cell lines. The deposited data comprise original sequencing CRAM files and associated sequencing-provider QC metadata.

• Alterations of whole genome and extrachromosomal circular cell-free DNA fragmentomes across the cancer care continuum

  The origins and properties of cancer-associated genetic changes in cell-free DNA (cfDNA) are not fully understood. Through genome-wide analyses of 1,807 samples from 1,064 patients across eight common cancer types, we identified extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) as a source of cfDNA fragments. Characterization of eccDNA-derived cfDNA fragments along with single base substitutions, small insertions and deletions, rearrangements, and phased variants in single cfDNA molecules, revealed differences between tumor tissues and cfDNA, with an increase in tumor-derived cfDNA alterations at epigenetically repressed regions and a decrease at active promoters. Combination of variant characteristics with individual error rates and machine learning analyses enabled tumor-informed and tumor-independent measures of circulating tumor DNA for early detection, detection of minimal residual disease, and for monitoring patients during therapy. The universal nature of eccDNA and other tumor-derived characteristics of cfDNA may be broadly useful for cancer detection.

• A nationwide prospective randomized trial for diagnosing developmental disorders demonstrates whole-genome sequencing outperforms whole-exome sequencing.

  Whole-exome (WES) or whole-genome (WGS) sequencing are recommended as first- or second-tier molecular tests for patients with developmental disorders (DD), but the clinical utility of WGS continues to be debated. This prospective randomized trial involving all Belgian Human Genetics centers compared the standard of care (SoC) - combining WES and microarray or shallow WGS - with WGS for 567 individuals with unexplained DD. The diagnostic yield of WGS was 39.8% (113/284) vs 30% for SoC (85/283) (p=0.015), mainly due to an increased detection of single nucleotide variants and indels (+8.7%). WGS also enabled the detection of three non-coding (potential) pathogenic variants. Diagnostic yield was higher for females (45.5%, 97/213) compared to males (28.5%, 101/354) (p<0.001). De novo variants were found for 23.6% of patients. Analysis of inherited variants in genes associated with autosomal dominant phenotypes contributed more to the diagnostic yield (3.9%) than X-linked variants (1.9%), and to a similar extent as autosomal recessive variants (4.1%). This nationwide study demonstrates WGS outperforms WES for the diagnosis of patients with DD in a decentralized hospital setting and well-characterized cohort. The results also highlight the importance of evaluating autosomal dominant inherited variants in genomics analyses for DD.

• Distinct immune and genomic signatures predict resistance to ibrutinib therapy in Waldenström macroglobulinemia

  In this study, we investigate the complex interplay between tumour-acquired genetic features and the composition of the microenvironment in the promotion of ibrutinib resistance in WM patients by integrating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS), to examine bone marrow tumour and immune compartments from 37 symptomatic WM patients treated with ibrutinib.

• Characterization of cell types, positional codes, and enhancers contributing to human facial individuality and pathology

  Human genetic diversity generates an astonishing variety of facial shapes, and craniofacial anomalies rank among the most common birth defects. This study generated a multimodal atlas of human embryonic craniofacial development across embryonic weeks 6–11, including single-cell transcriptomics, chromatin accessibility, and spatial transcriptomics. The dataset characterizes cell states, mesenchymal subtypes, and their gene-enhancer cis-regulatory landscapes in space and time. These data provide a resource for studying normal human facial development, craniofacial abnormalities, and the genetic mechanisms underlying facial individuality.
