• Rituximab-treated lymphoma patients show correlated deficiency in serological and T cell Spike-specific response after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination: insights from the CORSA Study.

  This study is part of the CORSA trial (NCT04345315), a prospective multicentric research project conducted by the Istituto Romagnolo per lo Studio dei Tumori “Dino Amadori” to investigate the immunologic response to mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in patients with hematologic malignancies (HM) and healthy individuals as controls (HC). The data in this repository refer to two subcohorts: 7 healthy controls and 10 lymphoma patients, randomly selected. Whole blood samples were collected to characterize T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire specificity against SARS-CoV-2 proteins before and after two BNT162b2 vaccination cycles, at baseline (before vaccination), 50 days after the first dose (V1), and 6 months after the first dose (V3). All participants were vaccinated under the Italian national campaign and provided informed consent following the Declaration of Helsinki. We investigated SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell responses through TCR repertoire profiling and examined correlations between serological and cellular responses in both patient and control groups. Using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to characterize the CDR3 sequences of TCR β-chains from peripheral blood, we assessed clonal expansion (depth) and diversification (breadth) of SARS-CoV-2-specific T cell clonotypes over time, aiming to understand how cancer and its treatment influence vaccine-induced immunity in immunocompromised individuals.

• Cell-free DNA methylation profiling for non-invasive detection and classification of lymphoma

  Compared with traditional tissue biopsies used for lymphoma diagnosis, cell-free DNA methylation profiling offers a minimally invasive approach capable of capturing lymphoma-specific epigenetic alterations. This study investigates genome-wide methylation patterns in plasma using cell-free methylated DNA immunoprecipitation and sequencing (cfMeDIP-seq). Differential methylation analysis of discovery samples identified lymphoma-associated hypermethylated regions that were used to develop classification models for lymphoma detection. Validation analyses demonstrated high accuracy and strong associations between cfDNA methylation scores and independent measures of tumor burden and clinical outcome. These findings support cfDNA methylation profiling as a sensitive approach for non-invasive lymphoma diagnosis.

• Cell-free MeDIP-seq of plasma samples from lymphoma patients and healthy controls

  This dataset contains cell-free methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (cfMeDIP-seq) data generated from plasma samples of lymphoma patients and healthy controls. The study aims to characterize genome-wide methylation patterns of circulating cell-free DNA and identify hypermethylated regions associated with lymphoma. Sequencing libraries were prepared using cfMeDIP with anti-5-methylcytidine antibody enrichment and sequenced on an Illumina platform. The dataset supports differential methylation analyses and the development of classification models for lymphoma detection.

• Intratumoral Ploidy Dynamics in HCC

  Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Effective therapies are limited, highlighting the critical need for stratification biomarkers to improve prognosis and predict treatment response. Polyploidization or hyperploidization, an early event observed in many solid cancers, may offer such potential. Here, we developed a new high throughput in situ quantitative approach to assess HCC ploidy profiles. This novel method highlights the presence of both Diploid (DP-) and Hyperploid (HP-) HCCs. RNA-seq profiling classified hyperploid HCCs as belonging to the proliferation subclass, predicting unfavourable clinical outcomes, and revealing a gene expression signature indicative of stemness. Spatially reconstructing nuclear ploidy also revealed DP/HP-HCCs with hyperploid nuclei forming discrete clusters within a predominantly diploid background. Remarkably, these emerging hyperploid foci shared a portion of their transcriptomic programme with fully developed hyperploid HCCs and displayed a signature of genomic instability, including upregulation of multiple DNA repair pathways in response to replication-associated DNA damage. Importantly, spatial transcriptomics of DP/HP HCC demonstrated that hyperploid tumor hepatocytes arise through whole-genome doubling of diploid tumor hepatocytes. Collectively, our findings underscore the prognostic value of nuclear ploidy profiling in HCC and suggest that hyperploid HCCs evolve clonally from intratumor hyperploid foci during tumor progression.

• IFNγ Drives Long-Term Bone Marrow Niche Dysfunction Following Doxorubicin-Based Chemotherapy

  To understand the impact of chemotherapy treatment on the bone marrow microenvironment, we acquired paired bone marrow (BM) aspirate samples from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) collected at diagnosis and 4w later (end of induction therapy) at the Princess Margaret Hospital. The BM stroma was obtained by expanding BM aspirates in culture, and profiled by RNA-sequencing.

• Targeting vulnerabilities in IDH mutant tumours: The model matters WES 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.
