• Targeting vulnerabilities in IDH mutant tumours: The model matters RNAseq study

  Introduction: Synthetic lethal interactions with IDH1 and IDH2 (IDH) mutations were identified in non-endogenous IDH mutant (IDHmut) AML and glioma models, but are absent in endogenous IDHmut chondrosarcoma cell lines. The translation into successful clinical applications has remained challenging, implying artificially created models do not fully recapitulate endogenous IDHmut tumour biology. The aim of this study was to elucidate if the model system is indeed an important factor to consider when studying therapeutic vulnerabilities in IDHmut tumours. Methods: Vector-based and CRISPR-Cas9 approaches were used to introduce or revert the IDH1 mutation in chondrosarcoma cell lines. These isogenic cell line pairs were used to examine the presence of known therapeutic vulnerabilities and their underlying biological mechanisms. Results: Vector-based IDHmut chondrosarcoma models showed the previously reported synthetic lethal interactions, but these treatment sensitivities were absent in the CRISPR-edited models. Interestingly, not all vector-based IDHmut cell lines displayed the same therapeutic vulnerabilities. Differences in treatment response were associated with multiple factors, including IDHmut protein expression and D-2-HG levels, in line with the fact that therapeutic vulnerabilities could be induced in the CRISPR-edited models by enhancing D-2-HG levels. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that synthetic lethal interactions observed in vector-based models are often a consequence of IDHmut protein overexpression and supra-physiological D-2-HG levels. These results highlight that relying on artificially created IDHmut models may lead to the identification of therapeutic vulnerabilities that are not present in IDHmut tumours, potentially explaining the poor translation of preclinical findings to clinical trials.

• RNA sequencing data and whole exome sequencing data of genetically modified IDH1 wildtype and mutant chondrosarcoma cell lines

  This dataset contains total RNA sequencing (polyA enriched) data of early and late passages of n=5 vector-based CH2879 empty vector and IDH1mut cell lines. Total RNA sequencing (polyA enriched) using 150bp paired-end reads was performed in triplicate using the NEBNext Ultra II Directional RNA Library Prep Kit (New England Biolabs) on the NovaSeq6000 platform (Illumina). Additionally, this dataset contains whole exome sequencing data of n=15 parental, mock, and CRISPR-edited IDH1mut and IDH1wt CH2879 and JJ012 cell lines. Whole exome sequencing using 150bp paired-end reads with a minimum coverage of 100x was performed in single using the SureSelect Human All Exon V8 library (Agilent Technologies) on the NovaSeq X platform (Illumina).

• Bulk RNA-seq (FASTQ) – melanoma samples

  This dataset comprises raw FASTQ files from bulk RNA sequencing of metastatic melanoma lymph node samples collected from patients with differential responses to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. RNA was extracted from tumour tissue, enriched for polyadenylated transcripts, and libraries were prepared using standard Illumina protocols. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina platform to generate high-quality paired-end reads. The dataset includes multiple patient samples with associated clinical annotations, enabling analysis of tumour-intrinsic transcriptional programs linked to immunotherapy response and resistance.

• LySeqST: A targeted sequencing assay for robust genomic classification of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

  Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a biologically heterogeneous disease. Two genomic classification systems, LymphGen and DLBclass, are capable of reproducibly classifying single tumors into subtypes with prognostic relevance in the context of standard-of-care R-CHOP chemoimmunotherapy. Preliminary data from subgroup analyses of clinical trials suggest that the distinct biological features are targetable with drugs that exploit subtype-specific vulnerabilities, and large clinical trials are being designed to test this hypothesis. Although whole exome sequencing (WES) remains the gold standard for each of these classification systems, many laboratories may opt for smaller targeted sequencing panels that reduce costs associated with sequencing, data storage, and processing. Here, we describe the design and validation of a targeted sequencing panel (LySeqST) that captures the genomic features required specifically for LymphGen classification. We perform in silico and real-world validation vs. WES data and demonstrate that LySeqST can be used to accurately classify DLBCL tumors. In an unselected population-based cohort, we determine the real-world proportions and validate the prognostic relevance of LymphGen subtypes, confirming that only tumors expressing the dark zone gene expression signature are consistently associated with inferior outcomes. Our results support the use of LySeqST for accurate genomic classification of DLBCL.

• Vaccine-Expanded Plasmablast-like B Cells Are Associated with Response to Dendritic Cell Therapy in Metastatic Melanoma

  Dendritic cells (DCs), either monocyte-derived (moDCs) or naturally circulating, have been employed in cancer treatment across both metastatic and adjuvant settings. DC vaccines (DC Vax) are capable of inducing tumor-specific immune responses, yet clinical outcomes have thus far fallen short of expectations. Here, we performed a multi-omics analysis of the apheresis product, including CD14⁺ monocytes, and the final DCVax formulation. Among all the components analyzed, the most striking finding was the unexpected presence of CD19⁺ B cells within the DC Vax formulation, which distinguished Responders from Non-Responders to moDC vaccination in metastatic melanoma. The abundance of B cells in DC Vax correlated with their peripheral frequency; however, within the vaccine, these cells acquired a CD20lowCD27hiCD38hi plasmablast-like phenotype, distinct from their autologous circulating B-cell precursors. Notably, a parallel observation was made in Responders, whose pre-treatment lesions were enriched in B cells organized as Tertiary Lymphoid Structures. These results underscore the importance of B cells in both baseline immunity and DCVax formulation, hinting at unexplored mechanisms by which they may influence vaccine effectiveness.
