• The identification of genetic vulnerabilities in head and neck cancers for the development of novel treatments.

  The global cancer burden is expected to double by the year 2030 and this will disproportionately affect the Asian continent. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is endemic in Asia. It is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the second most common in Malaysia, with approximately 600,000 new cases per year globally. Longterm survival remains less than 50%, underscoring the need for better therapeutic strategies. In this proposal we aim to bring new technological advancements in the identification of critical genes in HNSCC and the identification of compounds for the development of new therapies in HNSCC. We propose to genomically characterise 16 unique Asian H&N cancer cell lines, to classify sub groups where identification of essential genes that can be targeted for tumor control can be applied in a more rational way. Further, we propose to use zebrafish, an established drug discovery platform to identify promising pathway-specific compounds that could be further studied using CRISPR/Cas9 lethality screens and biological models to better identify novel therapeutic strategies to combat this major health problem in Asia.

• Human Microbiome Project Demonstration Study of Cutaneous Microbiome in Psoriasis

  Psoriasis, a highly prevalent disease of humans of unknown cause, is a chronic inflammatory disorder primarily involving skin, with distinctive clinical characteristics. With the newly developed tools that facilitate microbiome research, it now is possible to assess whether the cutaneous microbiome plays a role in the pathogenesis of this disorder. Preliminary data from our studies suggest that the cutaneous microbiome in psoriasis is complex and possibly different from normal. To deal with this complexity, we propose to examine the cutaneous microbiome in relation to psoriasis with explorations at several taxonomic and informatic levels. Our overall objective is to examine how changes in the normal cutaneous microbiome contribute to the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Since causality is complex and often difficult to prove, and beyond the scope of this RFP, our overall hypothesis is that there are alterations in the cutaneous microbiome in areas of skin affected by psoriasis in comparison with the range observed in clinically unaffected areas, or in healthy persons. We also hypothesize that the characteristics of the microbiome may affect clinical responses to the immunomodulatory agents used to treat psoriasis. An alternative hypothesis is that effective treatment of psoriasis with systemic immunomodulatory agents will not substantially affect the disordered microbial ecosystem. Such observations would provide evidence for the roles of the microbiota in this disorder. Since an important consideration in microbiome research is the optimal level (e.g. phylum, genus, species, strain, gene) at which to examine a scientific question, and we are not yet certain what are the optimal levels for psoriasis, this also will be examined. Our studies of psoriasis should allow development of both approaches and tools that will have general utility for Microbiome research. To test our hypothesis, we propose the following specific aims: 1) To understand the cutaneous microbiome species composition overlaying psoriatic lesions; 2)To investigate differences in metagenome content for psoriatic lesions compared to normal skin; 3) To identify differences in the transcriptional profiles of the microbiome and the host between normal skin and psoriatic lesions using high-throughput sequencing; and 4) To estimate the effects of systemic immunomodulatory therapy for psoriasis on microbiome composition. In total, these studies should help us understand the role of the microbiome in psoriasis pathogenesis. We sought to characterize and compare the cutaneous microbiota of psoriatic lesions (lesion), unaffected contralateral skin from psoriatic patients (normal), and similar skin loci in matched healthy controls (control) in order to discern patterns that govern skin colonization and their relationship to clinical diagnosis. Using high-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing, we assayed the cutaneous bacterial communities of 51 matched triplets and characterized these samples using community data analysis techniques.

• Whole-genome bisulfite sequencing for high-grade glioma

  We conducted whole-genome bisulfite sequencing to delineate base-resolution methylomes of gliomas harboring G34R mutation as well as those harboring K27M and no mutations in H3F3A. Comparative analysis of these three glioma subgroups revealed that G34 subgroup exhibited lower global methylation levels, comparable CpG island (CGI) methylation levels, and compromised hypermethylation of telomere-proximal CGIs, compared to the other two subgroups. Genomic regions specifically hypermethylated in G34 subgroup were enriched for CGIs. CGIs with G34V-mutated histone H3.3 in the glioma cell line KNS-42 were hypermethylated compared to those without it, suggesting a correlation between G34-mutated histone H3.3 in CGI hypermethylation.

• Study of the role of aneuploidy in cB-ALL

  We modeled two proposed routes to hyperdiploidy, chromosome missegregation and cytokinesis failure, by transiently exposing human fetal liver–derived HSPCs to reversine or cytochalasin-D. Induced hyperdiploidy impaired fitness and delayed differentiation in vitro, causing hyperdiploid cells to be rapidly outcompeted by euploid counterparts. Nonetheless, hyperdiploid cells engrafted immunodeficient mice, where rare clones persisted long-term and acquired non-random chromosomal gains frequently observed in cB-ALL.

• Transcriptome Analysis of Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor-like Melanoma

  Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST)-like melanoma is a rare malignancy with overlapping characteristics of both neural sarcoma and melanoma. The genomics of MPNST-like melanoma have not been previously described. In this study, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing analysis in 8 samples from 6 patients diagnosed with MPNST-like melanoma. In correlation with deletion ofxa0SERPINB4xa0in all our samples, there was noxa0SERPINB4xa0mRNA expression in our cohort, suggesting a potential tumor-suppressor role of SERPINB4 in MPNST-like melanomas.xa0HRAS, a gene uncommonly mutated in cutaneous melanomas, was mutated in 2 patients, but with no increased mRNA expression.xa0BRAFxa0mRNA expression, resultant from an atypicalxa0BRAFxa0mutation, was increased in association with an inactivatingxa0NF1xa0mutation. Our data demonstrate the role of alternative mechanisms of RAS pathway activation in MPNST-like melanomas and suggest the potential role of other molecular pathways in its carcinogenesis.

• Cellular Indexing of Transcriptomes and Epitopes Sequencing (CITE-Seq) Analysis to Investigate the Impact of Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor on CRISPR/Cas9 Gene Edited Human Hematopoietic Stem Cell Function

  Our research using in-vivo preclinical xenograft mouse models demonstrated that G-CSF impedes engraftment of CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). In this CITE-seq study, we sought to investigate the mechanisms by which G-CSF negatively impacts long-term repopulating functions of CRISPR-Cas9 gene edited human HSCs. Accordingly, human CD34+ cells were obtained from a healthy volunteer and edited with Cas9 alone (Cas9 group), Cas9+AAVS1-targeting gRNA (RNP group), or Cas9+AAVS1-targeting gRNA+GSE56 (RNP/GSE56 group). Then, these edited cells were transplanted into busulfan-conditioned NSG mice, and these mice subsequently received 3 days of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or G-CSF. Each mouse was subsequently euthanized and harvested for bone marrow cells and human CD34+cells were isolated using immunomagnetic beads. Isolated CD34+ cells from a total of 6 mice were individually stained with Total seq B CITE-seq antibodies (CD38, CD45RA, CD90, CD49f) + hashtag oligo antibodies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) was used to purify ~2,500 cells from each group that were subsequently pooled for CITE-seq library preparation and sequencing. Seurat was used to demultiplex data into 6 individual groups and differential gene expression analysis was performed to evaluate the impact of G-CSF within Cas9, RNP and RNP/GSE56 groups.

• Targeted sequencing of genes recurrently mutated in AML

  Background Massively parallel sequencing technology has transformed cancer genomics. It is now feasible, in a clinically relevant time-frame, for a clinically manageable cost, to screen DNA from patient tumours for mutations essentially genome-wide. The challenge for personalised medicine will be to increase the sample size to thousands or tens of thousands of well-characterised cases in order to attain sufficient statistical power to stratify patients accurately across the complexity and genomic heterogeneity expected for most of the common tumour types. Currently, whole genome sequencing on this scale is not feasible, and targeted sequencing of relevant portions of the genome will be required. Pilot data We have developed protocols for large-scale, multiplexed sequencing of 100-200 genes in thousands of samples. Essentially, using robotic technology, genomic DNA from the cancer specimen is processed into sequencing libraries with unique DNA barcodes, thereby allowing sequencing reads to be attributed to the sample they derive from. Currently, these sequencing libraries can be generated in a 96-well format using fully automated protocols, and we are exploring methods to expand this to a 384-well format. The sequencing libraries are pooled and hybridized to custom sets of RNA baits representing the genomic regions of interest. Sequencing of the pulled-down libraries is done in pools of 48-96 samples per lane of an Illumina Hi-Seq. This protocol is already implemented at the Sanger Institute. We have published proof that somatic mutations in novel cancer genes can be identified from exome-wide sequencing. In unpublished pilot data, we have established the feasibility of robotic library production, custom pull-down, and multiplexed sequencing of barcoded libraries for 100 known myeloid cancer genes across 760 myelodysplasia samples. Highlights of the data thus far analysed reveal that the coverage is remarkably even between samples; when 96 samples are run, average coverage per lane of sequencing is ~250, with 90-95% of targeted exons covered by >25 reads; known mutations can be discovered in the data set; and the protocol is amenable to whole genome amplified DNA. The bioinformatic algorithms for identification of substitutions and indels in pull-down data are well-established; we have pilot data proving that copy number changes, LOH and genomic rearrangements in specific regions of interest can also be identified by tiling of baits across the relevant loci. Proposal We propose to apply this methodology to 10000 samples from patients with AML enrolled in clinical trials over the last 10-20 years. Oncogenic point mutations and potentially genomic rearrangements will be identified, and linked to clinical outcome data, with a view to undertaking the following sorts of analyses: ? Identification of co-occurrence, mutual exclusivity and clusters of driver mutations. ? Correlation of prognosis with driver mutations and potentially gene-gene interactions ? Exploration of genomic markers of drug response Ultimately, we would like to be in a position to release the mutation data together with matched clinical outcome data to genuine medical researchers via a controlled access approach, possibly within the COSMIC framework (www.sanger.ac.uk/genetics/CGP/cosmic/). The vision here is to generate a portal whereby a clinician faced with an AML patient and his / her mutational profile can obtain a ?personalised? prediction of outcome, together with a fair assessment of the uncertainty of the estimate. With a sufficient sample size, there would also be the potential to develop decision support algorithms for therapeutic choices based on such data.

• Aggressive genomic features in clinicallyindolent primary HHV8-negative effusion-based lymphoma

  Human herpesvirus 8-negative effusion-based lymphoma (HHV8-negative EBL) is a distinct lymphoma entity related to fluid overload states caused by underlying medical conditions. Due to a phenotypical resemblance with secondary effusion of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), HHV8-negative EBL is easily misdiagnosed. However, in contrast to DLBCL, HHV8-negative EBL follows a mild clinical course, underpinning the importance to differentiate between the two entities. Only limited molecular data of HHV8-negative EBL has been reported and characteristic genomic patterns are lacking. We performed extensive genomic profiling on 8 HHV8-negative EBL cases. A mean number of 33.6 copy number gains and losses per case were found, with recurrent focal deletions of chromosome 3p14.2 and 6q21 in 6/8 cases, encompassing tumor supressor genes FHIT and PRDM1, respectively. We observed a high rate of mutations across genes frequently involved in DLBCL, including patterns of somatic hypermutation. The most abundant hotspot mutation was found in MYD88L265P (3/8 cases). In addition, 5/8 cases had one or more translocations, involving MYC, BCL2, BCL6, TP63, EXOC2 and KMT2D, with Ig and non-Ig partners. We conclude that HHV8-negative EBL is characterized by genomic features that are commonly found in more aggressive B-cell lymphomas, but despite this follow an indolent clinical course.

• Evolution of DNA repair defects during malignant progression of low-grade gliomas after temozolomide treatment.

  Temozolomide (TMZ) increases the overall survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM), but its role in the clinical management of diffuse low-grade gliomas (LGG) is still being defined. DNA hypermethylation of the O 6 -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter is associated with an improved response to TMZ treatment, while inactivation of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) pathway is associated with therapeutic resistance and TMZ-induced mutagenesis. We previously demonstrated that TMZ treatment of LGG induces driver mutations in the RB and AKT-mTOR pathways, which may drive malignant progression to secondary GBM. To better understand the mechanisms underlying TMZ-induced mutagenesis and malignant progression, we explored the evolution of MGMT methylation and genetic alterations affecting MMR genes in a cohort of 34 treatment-naïve LGGs and their recurrences. Recurrences with TMZ-associated hypermutation had increased MGMT methylation compared to their untreated initial tumors and higher overall MGMT methylation compared to TMZ-treated non-hypermutated recurrences. A TMZ-associated mutation in one or more MMR genes was observed in five out of six TMZ-treated hypermutated recurrences. In two cases, pre-existing heterozygous deletions encompassing MGMT, or an MMR gene, were followed by TMZ-associated mutations in one of the genes of interest. These results suggest that tumor cells with methylated MGMT may undergo positive selection during TMZ treatment in the context of MMR deficiency.

• Pharmacogenomic Analysis Reveals New Therapeutic Options for Pleural Mesothelioma

  Background: Pleural mesothelioma (PM) urgently requires novel effective treatments. Drug repurposing is a relevant strategy to discover new therapeutic options among well-known drugs used in clinical practice. This study aimed to identify new therapies in the context of molecular heterogeneity of PM. Methods: We performed a multi-omics study of the largest cohort of patient-derived primary PM cell lines (n=58) to date, using whole exome sequencing, RNA sequencing and methylome analysis. We also conducted a large-scale drug screening of over 1300 compounds on a subset of cell lines (n=11), as well as an extension screen (n=48) for selected drugs of interest. The best candidates were validated using 3D culture and mouse models. Results: We demonstrated that the molecular landscape of the cell lines cohort recapitulates the main findings in tumours and revealed new specific features of PM. The large-scale drug screening and subsequent validations highlighted notably strong sensitivity to entinostat and fluvastatin. Importantly, both compounds displayed same efficacy in 2D and 3D culture models and single treatment prolonged survival in vivo similarly or even better than standard chemotherapy. Strikingly, combining entinostat treatment with anti-PD1 led to cures in some mice and immunized them against tumour cells. Conclusions: Among several candidates, we identified entinostat, notably in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor, and to a lesser extent fluvastatin, as promising therapeutic options for patients. We believe our study provides a valuable resource that could contribute to advances in the field and warrants further clinical investigation.
