• The mutational landscape of skin tumours in CYLD cutaneous syndrome determined

  Patients with germline mutations in CYLD can develop hundreds of benign skin tumours called cylindromas. The development of multiple tumours within a single patient at sun-protected and sun-exposed sites, varying tumour histological patterns and grades of malignancy allow for the testing of several genetic hypothesis in relation to cutaneous carcinogenesis. By adopting the unprecedented approach of whole genome sequencing of multiple benign skin tumours within individuals in multigenerational families, we set out to study the impact of mutational diversity on models such as multistep carcinogenesis as well as non-sequential carcinogenesis. Using non-negative matrix factorisation (NMF) to discover mutational signatures, we found distinct mutational signatures in identical benign tumours (N=2 patients; n=11 tumours) at sun exposed and sun protected skin tumours within a mother and her daughter. We found recurrent mutations in epigenetic modifying genes in CCS tumours which are known to have an oncogenic dependency on Wnt signalling. We also demonstrate that cutaneous tumours that metastasize to the lung carry a a UV signature, supporting the origin from the skin. Distinct malignant tumours, such as BCC and malignant spiradenocarcinoma carried unique driver mutations. These findings add new dimensions to the existing paradigms of UV-induced skin cancer and highlight the utility of studying rare disease to gain novel insights into genetic mechanisms of tumour formation.

• Metabolic reprogramming towards OXPHOS identifies a novel therapeutic target for mantle cell lymphoma

  Metabolic reprogramming is linked to cancer cell growth and proliferation, metastasis, and therapeutic resistance in a multitude of cancers. Targeting dysregulated metabolic pathways to overcome resistance, an urgent clinical need in all relapsed/refractory cancers, remains difficult. Through genomics analysis of clinical specimens, we show that metabolic reprogramming towards oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and glutaminolysis is associated with therapeutic resistance to the Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor ibrutinib in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), an incurable B-cell lymphoma with poor clinical outcomes. Inhibition of OXPHOS with a novel, clinically applicable small molecule, IACS-010759, which targets complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, results in significant growth inhibition in vitro and in vivo in ibrutinib-resistant patient-derived cancer models. This work suggests that targeting metabolic pathways to subvert therapeutic resistance is a clinically viable approach to treat highly refractory malignancies.

• Somatic mutations and clonal dynamics in healthy and cirrhotic human liver

  Chronic liver injury predisposes to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, but how somatic mutations accumulate in liver disease is unexplored. We sequenced whole genomes of 400 microdissections of 100-500 hepatocytes from 5 normal and 6 cirrhotic livers. Compared to normal liver, cirrhotic liver had higher mutation burden, especially structural variants, including chromothripsis. Cirrhotic nodules were oligoclonal; sometimes entirely derived from a single, recent common ancestor. Clonal expansions millimeters in diameter occurred in cirrhosis in the absence of known driver mutations. Endogenous mutational processes predominated, although signatures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon and aristolochic acid exposure occurred in some samples. Up to 10-fold within-patient variation in activity of exogenous signatures existed between adjacent cirrhotic nodules, with both clone-specific and microenvironmental forces shaping this heterogeneity. Synchronous hepatocellular carcinomas drew from the same repertoire of mutational signatures as background cirrhotic liver, but with higher burden. Somatic mutations chronicle the exposures, toxicity, regeneration and clonal structure of liver tissue as it progresses from health to disease.

• Whole exome and targeted sequencing data from glioblastoma multiforme samples

  Whole exome and targeted sequencing data from 11 glioblastoma multiforme patients. A total of 70 tumour specimens and 11 blood samples were used for whole exome sequencing (WES) using the Agilent SureSelectXT Human All Exon V5 Kit. Two custom targeted sequencing panels were designed using the using Agilent’s Haloplex (TES1) or Agilent SureSelect XT2 technology (TES2). Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq2500

  FASTQ files from sequencing to < 0.4x depth of coverage of thirteen glioma patients. Indexed sequencing libraries were prepared using a commercially available kit (ThruPLEX-Plasma Seq, Rubicon Genomics). Libraries were pooled in equimolar amounts and sequenced on a HiSeq 4000 (Illumina) generating 150-bp paired-end reads.

• Spiradenocarcinoma (2018-10-29)

  Spiradenocarcinoma is a rare cutaneous sweat gland adnexal cancer with potential for aggressive behaviour. They are classified histologically into low- and high-grade tumours, with morphologically low-grade tumours thought to behave more favourably. However, limited information is available, with only 18 published cases. We have collected morphologically low-grade spiroadenocarcinomas (one with a lung metastasis) and high-grade spiroadenocarcinomas, as well as some spiradenomas (benign lesions), cylindromas (another type of malignant cutaneous sweat gland adnexal tumour) and hybrid spiradenoma-cylindromas. H&E-stained sections were reviewed, follow-up was obtained, and immunohistochemistry for Ki-67, p53 and, MYB has been performed. The tumours were solitary, measuring 0.8-7?cm (median: 2.7?cm), with a predilection for the head and neck of elderly patients (median age: 72 years; range 53-92) without gender bias. Histologically, the tumours were multinodular and located in deep dermis and subcutis. A pre-existing spiradenoma was present in all cases. The malignant component was characterized by expansile growth with loss of the dual cell population, up to moderate cytological atypia and increased mitotic activity (median: 10/10 HPF; range 1-28). Additional findings included squamoid differentiation (n=9), necrosis (n=7), and ulceration (n=5). P53 expression was variable and no significant differences were noted in the benign compared with the malignant parts of the tumours. In contrast, in the malignant components the Ki-67 proliferative index was slightly increased, and MYB expression was lost. Follow-up (median: 67 months; range: 13-132) available for 16 patients (84%) revealed a local recurrence rate of 19% but no metastases or disease-related mortality. Here we wish to exome sequence these cases to define the first genomic landscape for this malignancy. This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2018-10-29.
