• A_study_of_the_molecular_pathogenesis_of_Splenic_Marginal_Zone_and_Diffuse_Large_B_Cell_Lymphoma

  We will perform exome sequencing on selected cases of splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in order to characterise their genetic makeup and identify biomarkers for prognosis and prediction of treatment response.

• Genetic landscape of pediatric Medulloblastoma

  Medulloblastoma is a heterogenous disease made up of at least four distinct subtypes of disease which appear to exploit and disrupt naturally occurring developmental pathways of cellular growth and hindbrain development. To better understand the driver mutations of this disease, we performed whole genome sequencing of 37 medulloblastomas and the corresponding normal DNA of the 37 affected children treated at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. We have found several novel mutations which appear subtype specific. These mutations were checked for frequency in a separate tumor cohort of 56 children with medulloblastoma, also treated on the St. Jude Medulloblastoma 2003 trial, and were tested in several animal models of medulloblastoma for proof of oncogenic potential.

• A Proteogenomic Analysis of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma in a Chinese Population

  Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is a common and aggressive subtype of renal cancer. Here we conduct a comprehensive proteogenomic analysis of 232 tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissue pairs from Chinese ccRCC patients. By comparing with tumor adjacent tissues, we find that ccRCC shows extensive metabolic dysregulation and an enhanced immune response. Molecular subtyping classifies ccRCC tumors into three subtypes (GP1–3), among which the most aggressive GP1 exhibits the strongest immune phenotype, increased metastasis, and metabolic imbalance, linking the multi-omics-derived phenotypes to clinical outcomes of ccRCC. Nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), a one-carbon 38 metabolic enzyme, is identified as a potential marker of ccRCC and a drug target for GP1. We demonstrate that NNMT induces DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) homocysteinylation, increases DNA repair, and promotes ccRCC tumor growth. This study provides insights into the biological underpinnings and prognosis assessment of ccRCC, revealing targetable metabolic vulnerabilities.

• Chordoma_Sequencing_Project_Whole_Genome

  This is a continuation of the Chordoma Sequencing Project, prelim #G0175-122-CF. All cancers arise due to somatically acquired abnormalities in DNA sequence. Systematic sequencing of cancer genomes allows acquisition of complete catalogues of all classes of somatic mutation present in cancer. These mutation catalogues will allow identification of the somatically mutated cancer genes that are operative and characterise patterns of somatic mutation that may reflect previous exogenous and endogenous mutagenic exposures. In this application, we aim to perform whole genome sequencing on 10 chordoma matched genome pairs. The Chordoma Foundation will fund the RNA Sequencing/Methylation and SNP6 costs for this project while the whole genome and library sequencing will be covered under the CGP, 2012-2013 core WTSI internal funding. An additional sequencing of three cancer cell lines will be added to this work, financed by the Chordoma Foundation. In this project, the Chordoma foundation will pay for the additional costs of methylation, RNA Seq,

• Patient-derived pediatric brain tumor organoids faithfully recapitulate primary tumors

  Extensive molecular analysis by many groups has revealed a heterogeneous landscape of embryonal brain tumors, including medulloblastoma (MB) and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT). MB, the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor, is comprised of four molecularly distinct subgroups: Wingless (WNT), Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), Group 3 (G3), and Group 4 (G4). Among these, MB-SHH harboring MYCN amplification and TP53 mutation and MB-G3 with MYC overexpression or amplification constitute the most aggressive tumors, have the poorest clinical outcomes, and lack effective therapeutic options for recurrent disease. Here we describe the establishment of tumor organoid (TO) models from patient-derived orthotopic xenografts (PDOX) of MYCN-amplified and TP53-mutant MB-SHH, MYC-amplified MB-G3 and two ATRT which all grew in mice when reimplanted into the cortices of naïve recipient animals (TOX). Methylation, bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing, and whole genome sequencing demonstrated that TOs and TOXs faithfully recapitulated the molecular landscape and heterogeneity of PDOXs and primary patient tumors compared to established cell lines. The development of TOs will facilitate in vitro high-throughput drug or CRISPR screens without the need for use tumor-bearing mice. This will also accelerate the identification and validation of new vulnerabilities and in vivo preclinical testing toward clinical trials.

• Analysis_of_resistance_to_PLX4032

  We have collected material from a patient who had BrafV600E mutant melanoma that wastreated with PLX4032. We have germline DNA from the patient and DNA and RNA fromdistinct lesions before and after treatment with PLX4032. We would like to exome sequencethese samples to gain a snap shot of the mechanisms of resistance that are operative.

• Microenvironment subtypes and association with tumor cell mutations and antigen expression in follicular lymphoma

  Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a B-cell lymphoma with a complex tumor microenvironment that is rich in non-malignant immune cells. We applied single-cell RNA-sequencing to characterize the immune microenvironment of FL. This provides a classification framework of the FL microenvironment, their association with FL genotypes and antigen presentation, and informs different potential immunotherapeutic strategies.
