• Single-cell study of 14 childhood medulloblastoma patients

  Medulloblastoma intra-tumoural genetic heterogeneity and clonal evolution, and their role in disease pathogenesis and clinical behaviour, are poorly understood. We used single-cell whole-genome sequencing (sc-WGS) to reconstruct the natural history and temporal evolution of 14 medulloblastomas, representing its major clinico-molecular sub-classes. We identified wholly-clonal tumours which displayed single-clone expansion (i.e. linear evolution); all were observed in favourable-outcome sub-classes (i.e. MBWNT and infant MBSHH). In contrast, remaining tumours harboured sub-clonal structures which displayed punctuated or gradual trajectories; highest-risk sub-classes, typically characterised by MYC-amplification (MBGroup3) or TP53-mutation (MBSHH), and linked to genomic instability and LCA pathology, were most clonally-diverse. Clinically-adopted biomarkers were typically early-clonal/initiating events, representing exploitable targets for early-disease detection; in analyses of spatially-distinct tumour regions, a single biopsy was sufficient to assess their status. sc-WGS revealed events not previously appreciated in bulk tumour analysis, which arose later and/or sub-clonally and more commonly displayed spatial diversity; their clinical significance and role in disease evolution post-diagnosis now require establishment. In summary, our findings reveal diverse modes of tumour initiation and clonal evolution in the major medulloblastoma sub-classes, highlighting their pathogenic relevance and clinical potential.

• Convergent somatic evolution from early life in a germline ribosomopathy

  Clonal tracking of stem cells and their progeny by whole genome sequencing permits exploration of evolutionary genetics in human disease. In this study, we performed phylogenetic reconstruction of haematopoiesis using somatically acquired mutations in 323 single haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell-derived colonies from 10 individuals with an inherited disorder of ribosome assembly, Shwachman-Diamond syndrome. We observed numerous clonal expansions, with recurrent acquisition of mutually exclusive mutations (EIF6, TP53, RPL5, RPL22, PRPF8, chromosomes 7 and 15) in multiple different clones in utero or early childhood converging on the p53-dependent nucleolar surveillance pathway that monitors ribosome integrity. In contrast to clones carrying biallelic TP53 mutations, genomes derived from colonies carrying mono-allelic TP53 mutations displayed no increase in mutation burden or specific mutational signatures. Our study highlights striking loss of clonal diversity with convergent somatic evolution on the p53-dependent nucleolar surveillance pathway from early life to offset the deleterious effects of a germline mutation in a Mendelian haematopoietic disorder.

• Genetic regulation of RNA splicing in human pancreatic islets

  Here we provide access to newly generated RNA-seq data for 101 human islet samples used to map genetic effects on gene expression and alternative splicing (eQTLs and sQTLs) in a total of 399 human islets. We also make publicly available genotyping array data for 128 human islets, including the fraction of 101 human islet samples with existing RNA-seq data.

• Clonal origin of lineage switch leukemia following CAR-T cell and blinatumomab therapy

  Children with ALL treated with anti-CD19 therapy occasionally develop a phenotypically distinct AML. However, the precise clonal origin of such class switch leukemias remains unresolved. Here, we reconstructed the evolution of leukemia in a child with primary ALL, two ALL relapses and AML after treatment with anti-CD19 CAR-T and blinatumomab through whole-genome sequencing. The phylogeny revealed that the AML was a monoclonal outgrowth descending from the initial ALL and harbored biallelic loss of CDKN2A, PAX5 and TP53. However, none of the ALL or AML relapses directly descended from one another, suggesting the presence of a reservoir of persistent clones. Our findings suggest anti-CD19 treatment selects pre-existing clones, with many key genetic alterations underpinning the lineage switch detectable prior to treatment.

• Germline TP53 mutations undergo copy number gain years prior to tumor diagnosis

  Whole-genome sequence (WGS) analysis of tumors from 22 TP53 mutation carriers. We observed somatic mutations affecting Wnt, PI3K/AKT signaling, epigenetic modifiers and homologous recombination genes as well as mutational signatures associated with prior chemotherapy. We identified near-ubiquitous early loss of heterozygosity of TP53, with gain of the mutant allele. This occurred earlier in these tumors compared to tumors with somatic TP53 mutations, suggesting the timing of this mark may distinguish germline from somatic TP53 mutations. Phylogenetic trees of tumor evolution, reconstructed from bulk and multi-region WGS, revealed that LFS tumors exhibit comparatively limited heterogeneity. Overall, our study delineates early copy number gains of mutant TP53 as a characteristic mutational process in LFS tumorigenesis, likely arising very early in life or in utero.years prior to tumor diagnosis.

• Diagnostic utility of whole genome sequencing in adults with B-other acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  Genomic profiling at diagnosis of B-cell precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (BCP-ALL) in adults is used to guide disease classification, risk stratification and treatment decisions. Patients for which diagnostic screening fails to identify disease defining or risk stratifying lesions are classified as B-other ALL. We screened a cohort of 652 BCP-ALL cases enrolled in UKALL14 to identify and perform whole genome sequencing (WGS) on paired tumor-normal samples. For 52 B-other patients we compared WGS findings to data from clinical and research cytogenetics. WGS identifies a cancer associated event in 51/52 cases, this includes an established subtype defining genetic alteration in 5/52 that were previously missed by standard-of-care genetics. Of the 47 true B-other ALL we identified a recurrent driver in 87% (41).  Complex karyotype by cytogenetics emerges as a heterogeneous group, underlied by distinct genetic alterations associated with either favorable (DUX4-r) or poor outcomes (MEF2D-r, IGK::BCL2). For a subset of 31 cases, we integrate findings from RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis to include fusion gene detection, and classification by gene expression. Compared to RNA-seq, WGS was sufficient to detect and resolve recurrent genetic subtypes, however RNA-seq can provide orthogonal validation of findings. In conclusion, we demonstrate that WGS can identify clinically relevant genetic abnormalities missed by standard-of-care testing and identify leukemia driver events in virtually all cases of B-other ALL.

• HELIUS cohort gut microbiome batch2

  The gut microbiota composition is unique to every individual but is shaped by common factors including diet, lifestyle, medication use, early-life determinants, living environment or genetics. Most of these factors may be influenced by ethnicity. This study explored variations in fecal microbiota composition in 6048 individuals with different ethnic backgrounds living in the same geographical area (Amsterdam, the Netherlands). The HELIUS data are owned by the Amsterdam University Medical Centers, location AMC in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. To allow sharing of microbiome data collected in HELIUS with (inter)national researchers, 16s rRNA sequence analysis has been stored at the European genome-phenome archive (EGA; accession code EGAD00001004106). This requires that access needs to be granted, also because the HELIUS data are stored with relevant phenotypical variables. Access is granted to all researchers affiliated with an internationally recognized research institution who request to use the HELIUS data within the EGA context, after having signed the data transfer agreement. Any researcher can request the data by submitting a proposal to the HELIUS Executive Board as outlined at http://www.heliusstudy.nl/en/researchers/collaboration, by email: heliuscoordinator at amsterdamumc dot nl. The HELIUS Executive Board will check proposals if they do not conflict with ethical approvals and informed consent forms of the HELIUS study.
