• Ewings Sarcoma RNA-Seq

  Sarcomas are cancers of the bone and soft tissue often defined by their gene fusions. However, the timing, context, and processes by which these pathogenic fusions arise are unknown. We explored this in Ewing sarcoma, a cancer driven by EWSR1-ETS fusions, with very few cooperating mutations. Combining whole-genome sequencing with enhanced informatics, we found that the EWSR1-ETS fusion arose from striking rearrangement clusters in 42% of cases (52/124). Notably, these were organized in loops that universally contained the fusion at their center, while also weaving up to 18 genes together with it. We found the same pattern of rearrangements in three additional types of sarcoma. From these data, we define a new signature for sarcoma fusions that precedes other somatic changes, in the earliest replicating DNA of the genome. This dramatic, sudden process impinges on many genes – generating multiple coding changes that profoundly affect the transcriptome, with the disease-defining gene fusion at its core. These rearrangement loops emerge in an early ES clone from which both the primary tumor and the lethal relapse emerged, and then evolved in parallel until clinically detected.

• RNA-seq of Glioblastoma stem cells

  Chromatin accessibility discriminates stem from mature cell populations, enabling the identification of primitive stem-like cells in primary tumors, such as Glioblastoma (GBM) where self-renewing cells driving cancer progression and recurrence are prime targets for therapeutic intervention. We show, using single-cell chromatin accessibility, that primary GBMs harbor a heterogeneous self-renewing population whose diversity is captured in patient-derived glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). In depth characterization of chromatin accessibility in GSCs identifies three GSC states: Reactive, Constructive, and Invasive, each governed by uniquely essential transcription factors and present within GBMs in varying proportions. Orthotopic xenografts reveal that GSC states associate with survival, and identify an invasive GSC signature predictive of low patient survival. Our chromatin-driven characterization of GSC states improves prognostic precision and identifies dependencies to guide combination therapies.

• Oral mucosa organoids as a potential model for personalized therapies

  Organoids were established from both tumor and matched wildtype tissue from patients diagnosed with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In order to confirm tumor status and identify oncogenic driver mutations, DNA derived of these organoids was sequenced. After validation of tumor identity, organoids were exposed to a range of (targeted) chemotherapeutics and radiotherapy. Differential responses to therapeutics were subsequently correlated to underlying genetic alterations to see if DNA mutation status could be predictive for responses to therapy.

• Genomic profiling of paediatric glioma cell lines

  Although paediatric gliomas resemble their adult counterparts in many ways, there appear to be distinct clinical and biological differences. One important factor hampering the development of new targeted therapies is the relative lack of cell lines derived from childhood glioma patients, as it is unclear whether the well-established adult lines commonly used are representative of the underlying molecular genetics of childhood tumours. We have carried out a detailed molecular profiling of paediatric glioma cell lines KNS42, SF188, UW479, RES259 and RES186.

• Whole exome sequencing of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL)

  Somatic mutations in 3 AITL and 3 PTCL, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) specimens were explored using whole-exome sequencing.

• Profiling of Peritoneal Metastases from Gastric Adenocarcinoma Identified Molecular Subtypes

  Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) occurs frequently in gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) patients and confers poor prognosis. Multiplex profiling of primary GACs has been insightful but the underpinnings of PC’s development/progression remain largely unknown. Here we characterized exome/transcriptome/immune landscapes of PC cells from 43 patients.

• Exome sequencing of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma

  The aim of our project is to decipher the genomic of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma using whole exome sequencing. To this purpose, we aim to compare genetic landscape of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma with early tumor in order to understand the mechanisms of tumor progression. This work will also help to identify new therapeutic targets potentially useful to treat patients at advanced stage. This study contain whole exome sequencing aligned reads for 41 tumor with matched normal samples
