• Immune activation in the tumor microenvironment of renal cell carcinoma

  Study describes immunological responses to immunotherapy (anti-PD-1, pembrolizumab) and targeted therapy (VEGFR inhibition, axitinib) as well as anti-CD3/CD28/CD2 (Immunocult) in a patient-derived ex vivo tumor model of renal cell carcinoma. Patient-derived ex vivo tumor models were established and their treatment response studied using material from eight renal cell carcinoma patients. Samples were collected under informed consent in HUS Helsinki University Hospital, Finland. The study aims to understand immunological treatment responses in the patient tumor microenvironment.

• scRNA transcriptome and TCR sequencing data modeling treatment responses in eight renal cell carcinoma patient

  Single cell RNA sequencing and coupled TCR sequencing data generated following immunological treatments in patient-derived ex vivo tumor models. Dataset consist of 46 sequencing samples originating from eight individual patient-derived ex vivo models. Single cell RNA and TCR sequencing data is generated using 10X Genomics platform with 5´ sequencing. The submission contains 46 Fastq files where each patient-derived ex vivo model and it's transcriptomic response to specified treatment is a unique sequencing run. TCR sequencing runs are submitted as one file per individual model, gathering all the treatment conditions.

• Chromosomal instability shapes the tumor microenvironment of oesophageal adenocarcinoma via a cGAS–chemokine–myeloid axis

  This study employed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate genomic alterations in oesophagogastric adenocarcinoma, with a focus on mechanisms of chromosomal instability. Twelve tumour samples were analysed, including specimens obtained prior to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and at surgical resection. WGS was used to identify structural variants, quantify tumour mutational burden, and detect potential driver mutations across samples. The study aimed to correlate genomic measures of chromosomal instability with clinicopathological features to improve understanding of tumour biology.

• Comprehensive molecular profiling identifies novel genetic drivers and subtypes underlying medulloblastoma

  Current therapies for medulloblastoma (MB), a highly malignant childhood brain tumor, impose debilitating effects on the developing child, warranting the development of molecularly targeted treatments with reduced toxicities. Prior studies have failed to disclose the full spectrum of driver genes and molecular processes operative in MB or adequately explain heterogeneity among molecular subgroups. Herein, we detail the somatic landscape across 491 sequenced MBs and molecular heterogeneity amongst 1,256 epigenetically analyzed cases, identifying subgroup-specific mutational signatures, driver genes, and pathway alterations including previously unappreciated actionable therapeutic targets. Integrative approaches for assigning driver genes to subgroups explained >65-70% of Group 3 and Group 4, doubling previous knowledge. Novel subtypes underlying Group 3 and Group 4 were differentially enriched for specific driver events, including hotspot in-frame indels targeting KBTBD4 and ‘enhancer hijacking’ driving activation of PRDM6. Thus, application of integrative genomics to an unprecedented cohort of clinical samples derived from a single childhood cancer entity has disclosed a series of new cancer genes and biologically relevant subtype diversity that represent attractive therapeutic targets for treating MB.

• Relapse CHL study

  Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (CHL) is characterized by a complex tumor microenvironment (TME) that supports disease progression. While immune cell recruitment by Hodgkin and Reed–Sternberg (HRS) cells is well-documented, the role of non-malignant B cells in relapse remains unclear. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) on paired diagnostic and relapsed CHL samples, we identified distinct shifts in B cell populations, particularly an enrichment of naïve B cells and a reduction of memory B cells in early-relapse compared to late-relapse and newly diagnosed CHL. The enrichment of naïve B cells in early relapse biopsies was confirmed in independent validation cohorts using scRNA-seq and immunohistochemistry. Notably, naïve B cells in early-relapse samples exhibited high expression of LGALS9, an immunosuppressive molecule known to interact with T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) on regulatory T cells (Tregs). Cell-cell interaction analysis revealed the importance of interactions between LGALS9+ naïve B cells and TIM-3+ Tregs in the early-relapse setting. Spatial analysis by imaging mass cytometry confirmed close proximity of LGALS9+ naïve B cells with TIM-3⁺ CD4⁺ T cells and HRS cells, pointing to their role in shaping an immunosuppressive niche. Our findings highlight a previously unrecognized population of LGALS9⁺ naïve B cells with immunoregulatory potential in early-relapse CHL and provide new insights into the spatial and transcriptional architecture of the relapsed TME in CHL.

• Genetic landscape of pediatric ependymoma

  We performed whole-genome sequencing of 42 paired tumor/normal EPD genomes and analyzed somatically acquired single nucleotide variations (SNVs), insertion/deletions, structural variations and copy number variations in the cancer genomes

• Whole genome and RNA sequencing of paediatric glioblastoma in the ICGC PedBrain project

  Paediatric glioblastoma (pedGBM) is characterised by substantial intertumoural heterogeneity. In order to identify the genetic lesions underlying tumourigenesis, we analysed whole genomes and transcriptomes of pedGBMs and in vitro model systems by next generation sequencing. Novel fusions of the receptor tyrosine kinase MET lead us to investigate targeted therapy using MET inhibitors. This study is part of the International Cancer Genome Consortium PedBrain Tumor Project (ICGC PedBrain, http://www.pedbraintumor.org/).

• Whole-genome sequencing analysis of low-grade astrocytomas within the ICGC PedBrain Tumor Project

  In order to investigate the full range of genetic alterations contributing to the tumourigenesis of low-grade astrocytoma, we have conducted a next-generation sequencing-based analysis on a large series of matched tumor-normal pairs. This study, conducted by the International Cancer Genome Consortium PedBrain Tumor Project (ICGC PedBrain, http://www.pedbraintumor.org/), has revealed multiple new insights into the biological basis of this tumor entity.

• 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.

• Comprehensive genomic profiling of matched glioblastoma tumours, cell-lines, and xenografts reveals genomic stability and adaptation to disparate growth environments

  The mandate of this project was to use drug screening to deliver new drugs for glioblastoma (GBM) to clinical trials, and perform genomic assessment of GBM to discover new therapeutic targets and predictors of response. The sequencing data in this set was derived from GBM patient tumor samples, matched brain tumor initiating cells lines (BTICs), and tumor tissue derived from orthotopic implants.
