• AYA glioma NGS

  Gliomas are a major cause of cancer-related death in adolescents and young adults (AYA, ages 15-39 years). Different molecular alterations drive gliomas in children and adults leading to distinct biology and clinical consequences. At the convergence of these age groups - the AYA population – little is known about the implications of pediatric vs adult-type alterations. To address this, we analyzed a population-based cohort of 1456 clinically and molecularly characterized gliomas aged 0-39 years. Potentially targetable pediatric-type alterations were found in 31% of AYA gliomas and conferred superior outcomes compared to adult-type alterations. This submission includes the generated NGS data for children, adolescent, and young adults with gliomas. Data includes targeted panel of glioma genes and low-pass WGS (1x coverage).

• Y90 radioembolization followed by intravenous Nivolumab for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma

  To evaluate the efficacy of combination therapy with ICI and RT in patients, a Phase II trial (CA209-678) was conducted to investigate the efficacy and safety of Y90-RE followed by nivolumab in patients with advanced HCC (NCT03033446, n = 36). Interestingly, the ORR was found to be 30.6% in all patients and 43.5% when restricted to patients with only intrahepatic tumors, suggesting possible synergism between Y90-RE and ICI. Here we present whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA-seq data for 33 patients treated with Y90 radioembolization followed with Nivolumab.

• Organoid drug profiling identifies methotrexate as a therapy for SCCOHT, a rare pediatric cancer

  Small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT) is a rare and lethal tumor in adolescent and young adult patients. Currently, there is no standard-of-care treatment for these patients. Reliable models that represent this disease and can be used for translational research are scarce. To model SCCOHTs, we have established eight patient-derived tumoroid lines from tumor lesions of three patients with SCCOHT. The tumoroids recapitulate genomic and transcriptomic characteristics of the corresponding patient tumors and capture intrapatient tumor heterogeneity. Organoid drug profiling using a library of 153 clinical compounds identified methotrexate as an effective and selective drug against SCCOHTs with a clinically relevant IC50 of 35 nmol/L. RNA sequencing demonstrated that methotrexate induced TP53 pathway activation and apoptosis. These data underscore that organoid technology can support the design of therapeutic strategies for rare cancers.

• Mayo Clinic - Fecal Microbiota and Adenomas

  Background: Adenomatous polyps are the most common precursor to colorectal cancer (CRC), the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. We sought to learn more about early events of carcinogenesis by investigating shifts in the gut microbiota of patients with adenomas. Methods: We analyzed 16S rRNA gene sequences from the fecal microbiota of patients with adenomas (n=233) and without (n=547). Results: Multiple taxa were significantly more abundant in patients with adenomas, including Bilophila, Desulfovibrio, pro-inflammatory bacteria in the genus Mogibacterium, and multiple Bacteroidetes species. Patients without adenomas had greater abundances of Veillonella, Firmicutes (Order Clostridia), and Actinobacteria (family Bifidobacteriales). Many of our findings were consistent with previously reported shifts in the gut microbiota of CRC patients. Importantly, the altered adenoma profile is predicted to increase primary and secondary bile acid production, as well as starch, sucrose, lipid, and phenylpropanoid metabolism. Conclusions: These data suggest that diets rich in refined sugar, protein, and lipids may lead to increased bile acid production, creating a colonic environment that promotes the growth of bile-tolerant microbes such as Bilophilia and Desulfovibrio. In turn, these microbes may produce genotoxic or inflammatory metabolites such as H2S and secondary bile acids, catalyzing adenoma development and eventually CRC. Impact: This study suggests a plausible biological mechanism to explain the links between diet, shifts in the microbiota, and CRC. This represents a first step toward resolving the complex interactions that shape the adenoma-carcinoma sequence of CRC and may facilitate personalized therapeutics focused on the microbiota.

• Somatic Mutations in Individual Skin Cells

  Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the primary cause of melanoma through the acquisition of driver mutations in melanocytes. It also plays a significant role in oncogenesis in other skin cells, such as keratinocytes. However, the mutational profiles vary widely among different skin cancers, and the early mutational processes in different cell types from the same skin, is not well understood. Additionally, our preliminary studies also suggest that the mutation burden in different skin cells vary significantly based on risk factors such as the anatomical site and the use of tanning beds. To explore this, we employed innovative Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) tools to perform a site-matched comparison of the genomic landscapes of melanocytes, keratinocytes, and fibroblasts. From 20 biopsies of physiologically normal skin, collected from various anatomical sites across 16 donors, we have performed DNA-sequencing on 106 melanocytes, 78 keratinocytes and 13 fibroblasts. Of these samples, we have also simultaneously performed RNA-sequencing on 78 melanocytes, 46 keratinocytes and 9 fibroblasts. For normal bulk DNA, we also performed targeted (UCSF500; n=9) or exome sequencing (n=8) of skin or saliva samples from the donors.

• The genetic footprint of the European Roma diaspora: Evidence from the Balkans to the Iberian Peninsula

  Our genomic approach focuses on: (i) the internal genetic structure of Roma and its correlation with geography; (ii) the relationships between Iberian Roma and other non-Roma populations to explore possible contacts during the period of population upheaval following the Roma’s arrival on the Iberian Peninsula; (iii) estimation of the admixture events in the Iberian Roma before and after their arrival to the Iberian Peninsula; and (iv) the assessment of endogamy patterns and assortative mating of the European Roma. Our study provides a detailed analysis of the intricate population history of the Iberian Roma, offering insights from both micro-geographical and large-scale perspectives on the population history of European Roma.
