• Clonal selection after gene therapy in sickle cell disease

  While gene therapy (GT) provides a potentially curative treatment option for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), the occurrence of myeloid malignancies in clinical trials has prompted concern. To interrogate potential mechanisms underlying increased cancer risk, we used hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) clonal tracking by whole genome sequencing (WGS) to map the somatic mutation and clonal landscape of 2,592 gene modified as well as unmodified single stem and progenitor cells from six SCD patients undergoing gene therapy (7-26 years old, average 12.7× depth). Pre-GT phylogenetic trees in SCD were highly polyclonal and mutation burdens per cell were elevated in some, but not all, patients. Post-GT, no clonal expansions were identified. However, an increased frequency of driver mutations associated with myeloid neoplasms or clonal hematopoiesis (DNMT3A- and EZH2-mutated clones in particular) were seen in both genetically modified and unmodified cells suggested positive selection of mutant clones during gene therapy. This work sheds light on the mutation landscape and HSC clonal dynamics in gene therapy for SCD and highlights enhanced fitness of some HSCs harboring pre-existing driver mutations following gene therapy. Future studies should define the long-term fate of mutant clones including any contribution to expansions associated with myeloid neoplasms.

• CIDR: NINDS High Throughput Genotyping Resource Access for Structural Hindbrain Disorders

  Recessive forms for many structural brain disorders (SBDs), including cerebellar hypoplasia (CBH), corpus callosum hypoplasia (CCH), cobblestone lissencephaly (COB), classical lissencephaly (LIS), microcephaly (MIC), and pontocerebellar hypoplasia (PCH), have been described. Patients usually present to the clinic with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), including autism, epilepsy, intellectual disability, and cerebral palsy. Subsequent brain MRI usually leads to the diagnosis of an SBD. While a handful of genes that cause these diseases have been identified, most patients do not have mutations in these genes, suggesting that there is still much work to be done in identifying the genetic causes of these disorders. We have recruited a cohort of families with inherited SBDs, most from families with documented parental consanguinity with more than one affected member. Current approaches utilizing exome sequencing of SBD affected members still leave most cases unsolved, in part because there are too many possible variants to consider. Linkage analysis will allow us to extract all the useful genetic information from the family, taking advantage of each genetically informative meiosis in each family. We propose to analyze up to 100 SBD families for 500 samples per year for 4 years, through the CIDR SNP Genotyping Service, in parallel with already-funded exome sequencing of affects, leveraging off an already funded Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) effort to identify new causes of SBDs. Understanding the pathogenetic mechanisms underlying recessive pediatric SBDs will lead to better diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities for patients, and may shed light on complex NDDs. Ultimately, this work will identify new genetic disease loci to provide insight into pediatric SBD, with the hope to mitigate the impact of SBD worldwide.Public Health Significance: NDDs affect approximately 4-­6% of the general population, most notably children, and are evident in disorders, such as intellectual disability, epilepsy, and autism, with estimated yearly costs of $51.2B for intellectual disability, $11.5B for cerebral palsy, and $2.5B for visual impairment, making up >5% of total health care costs. Recessive NDDs impose enormous personal, social, and economic costs because of the early onset and the lifetime of medical dependence that often ensues. Genetic testing is critical to the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases. Many of the diseases under study have no treatment or cure. Structural brain diseases (SBDs) underlie a large percentage of these diseases, and are defined loosely as any condition in which defects in the structure or volume of a key brain component. SBDs are divided into major categories based upon the anatomical brain location. The major types involve the anatomical structures of the developing neural tube, forebrain, hindbrain, cerebral cortex, and those affecting overall brain size. For the purposes of this application, we have excluded SBDs resulting from environmental causes (i.e. prematurity-­induced), those below the brainstem, or those unlikely to be due to a germline or de novo mutation (i.e. focal SBDs or simplex disease).

• NSIGHT North Carolina Newborn Exome Sequencing for Universal Screening (NC NEXUS)

  Since newborn screening (NBS) began in the 1960s, technological advances have resulted in its use in an increasing number of disorders. Recent developments in whole-genome sequencing and its simpler corollary, whole-exome sequencing (WES), now afford the opportunity to comprehensively define the variation within an individual's genome in a rapid and affordable manner. Many challenges arise with the clinical application of genome-scale sequencing and in deriving practical benefits to infants and children. Its utility in NBS has yet to be demonstrated and its application in the pediatric population requires special examination, not only for potential clinical benefits but also for the unique ethical challenges it presents. In this proposal, we outline a highly interdisciplinary approach to identify, confront, and overcome the major challenges that must be met in order to implement deep sequencing technology to enhance current newborn screening in a diverse pediatric population. Overarching Aim 1 will evaluate the utility of WES as a diagnostic tool to extend the utility of current NBS. Using diverse cohorts of infants and young children with known conditions identified through NBS, we will examine the sensitivity and specificity of WES. We will also utilize WES in cohorts of children with known conditions not currently screened as potential candidates for NBS in the future. Overarching Aim 2 will develop and assess a framework for analyzing WES in a clinically oriented framework based on principles of ethics and evidence-based medicine. We will develop strategies to guide clinicians, clinical laboratories, and patients/families in their decisions regarding the inevitable incidental findings that will be detected, in ways that respect the child and protect his/her future autonomy, while also respecting parental interests and rights. Overarching Aim 3 will explore ethical, legal, and social issues (ELSI) involved in informed decision making and develop best practices regarding the return of results after testing. We will develop novel decision support tools and evaluate their usefulness in parental decision making, and examine the burdens placed on clinicians as this new technology is deployed in the vulnerable and special population that are newborns and their families.

• Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome: A Longitudinal Clinical Study of Patients Receiving Cholesterol Supplementation

  Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a disorder of cholesterol production by the body. It is caused by changes in the DHCR7 gene, which is the blueprint for an enzyme called 7-dehydrocholesterol- delta7-reductase. This enzyme is necessary for the production of cholesterol by all cells in the body. People with SLOS often have malformations of major organs, slow growth, feeding difficulties and intellectual disability or learning problems. Because patients with SLOS cannot make enough cholesterol, it has been proposed that cholesterol supplementation (either with egg yolk or liquid suspensions of cholesterol) could help improve the symptoms of the disease. However, despite the widespread use of cholesterol supplementation, it is still not known whether it works or not. The study will try to provide an answer to this question by studying the disease and its progression while patients are receiving cholesterol. The clinical features of SLOS are thought to be related to low cholesterol and buildup of toxic cholesterol precursors (substances from which cholesterol is formed). But how exactly low cholesterol and toxic precursors contribute to the disease is poorly understood. This knowledge is critically important because it should help discover new therapeutic targets and develop treatments of the disease in the long run. The study will try to fill this gap with a comprehensive clinical and biochemical testing of the study participants over the course of several years. Last, a limitation of previous SLOS research studies has been their low number of participants. This is understandable because SLOS is a rare diseases and few research groups are working on it. However, in order to fully understand the disease, researchers need to study as many patients as possible. This study is unique in that it is run by a network of several highly specialized clinical research sites across the country. Having several sites involved increases the researcher's ability to recruit and study large number of patients, and centralize patients' information in a comprehensive SLOS clinical registry. This registry will be key to identify markers for diagnostic testing, screening and measuring outcomes in future studies of treatment. The purpose of this study is to learn as much as possible about Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) by following a large group of affected children and adults over time. In this study, we will measure cholesterol and other similar chemicals in blood and urine, evaluate development and behavior, do limited medical evaluation, and carry out brain imaging studies.This study will help researchers: learn more about what causes SLOS and how SLOS changes with age, note differences in features of SLOS among those affected, evaluate the effect of giving extra cholesterol in this condition, and develop ways to evaluate whether treatments developed in the future will be helpful.

• National Cancer Institute (NCI) Biospecimen Pre-analytical Variables (BPV) Analysis

  The Biospecimen Pre-analytical Variables (BPV) Program is a National Cancer Institute-sponsored study to systematically assess the effects of pre-analytical factors on the molecular profile of biospecimens. A robust biospecimen collection infrastructure was established to prospectively collect biospecimens using rigorous standard operating procedures to control for most variables while introducing experimental conditions to study specific biospecimen handling issues, including the cold ischemic time (delay to formalin fixation), time in formalin, freezing methods, and storage temperatures and durations. RNA and DNA from biospecimens collected under these conditions was analyzed on multiple molecular platforms. The potential effects of these pre-analytical conditions on protein integrity and detection of metabolites were also examined. Data from this study will be used to develop evidence-based biospecimen standard operating procedures and best practices for fit-for-purpose collection, processing, and storage of biospecimens.

• ACTIV-6: COVID-19 Outpatient Randomized Trial to Evaluate Efficacy of Repurposed Medications

  This study is a platform protocol designed to be flexible so that it is suitable for a wide range of settings within healthcare systems and in community settings where it can be integrated into routine COVID-19 testing programs and subsequent treatment plans. This platform protocol will enroll participants in an outpatient setting with a confirmed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or antigen test for SARS-CoV-2. Each appendix will describe a repurposed medication (study drug) to meet the protocol objectives. When only one study drug/appendix is under study, allocation between study drug and placebo will be 1:1. If multiple study drugs/appendices are under study, participants will also be randomized among the study drugs for which eligibility is confirmed. Since the route of administration of each study drug may differ, the placebos may also differ. To achieve blinding and an equitable randomization probability, a two-step randomization process will be used.In the first step, the participant will be randomized m:1 active study drug to placebo, where m is the number of active study drugs for which the participant is eligible. Then, participants will be randomized among the m study drugs for which they are eligible. Participants will carry their ‘study drug' versus ‘placebo' randomization with them into the study drug appendix. In this way, a participant allocated to placebo who is randomized to study drug A will be given the placebo that matches study drug A. This achieves equal probability of exposure to a placebo or an active study drug, and equitable distribution among all study arms for which a participant is eligible. Sites will be informed to which study drug appendix the participant is randomized, but not whether they are allocated to the study drug arm or placebo arm within that appendix. For analysis, concurrent placebo participants who were eligible for the study drug appendix will be pooled. This will result in approximately a 1:1 allocation ratio for any study drug to placebo. If a study drug appendix is stopped for efficacy and becomes standard of care, the active study drug arm may serve as a concurrent placebo for other study drugs.Participants will receive complete supply of repurposed medication (study drug) or placebo with length of treatment and amount of study drug/placebo depending on the study drug appendix and arm to which they are randomized.This study is designed so that it can be done completely remotely. However, screening and enrollment may occur in person at sites and unplanned study visits may occur in person or remotely, as deemed appropriate by an investigator for safety purposes. Participants will be on-study for up to 180 days, during which they will complete various questionnaires.

• CAGE analysis for endometrial carcinoma

  For endometrial cancer patients, lymphadenectomy is recommended to exclude rarely metastasized cancer cells. This procedure is performed even in patients with low risk of recurrence despite the risk of complications such as lymphedema. A method to accurately identify cases with no lymph node metastases (LN-) before lymphadenectomy is therefore highly required. We approached this clinical problem by examining primary lesions of endometrial cancers with CAGE (Cap Analysis Gene Expression), which quantifies promoter-level expression across the genome. Fourteen profiles delineated distinct transcriptional networks between LN?+?and LN- cases, within those classified as having the low or intermediate risk of recurrence.

• The Natural History of Mucolipidosis Type IV

  Mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV) is an autosomal recessive disorder typically characterized by severe psychomotor delay evident by the end of the first year of life and slowly progressive visual impairment during the first decade as a result of a combination of corneal clouding and retinal degeneration. The purpose of this research study is to look at the brain and eye in patients with mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV). MLIV is a lysosomal storage disease that primarily affects the brain and the eyes. The disease is caused by a defect in a gene called MCLON1 that makes a protein called mucolipin-1. Patients with MLIV do not make enough normal mucolipin. The disease begins early in life and the neurological problems seem to stabilize later in life. On the other hand, the eye abnormalities usually progresses over time. The exact course of the disease has not been determined, and until now, no study has addressed this question carefully. The research objectives are: To learn about the natural history of cognitive function for individuals with mucolipidosis type IV. To measure brain volume over time in individuals with mucolipidosis type IV This is an observational study of individuals with MLIV disorder. Those participating in this study will be evaluated annually for five years following a baseline visit.

• Longitudinal Study of Genetic Causes of Intrahepatic Cholestasis

  This longitudinal observational study will investigate the natural history and progression of four genetic causes of intrahepatic cholestasis of childhood, including alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (α1-AT), Alagille syndrome (AGS), progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC), and bile acid synthesis defects (BAD). This study will be conducted as part of the Cholestatic Liver Disease Consortium (CLiC), an NIH-funded multi-centered Rare Disease Clinical Research Consortium. In this study, we will collect defined data elements in a uniform fashion at fixed intervals for five years over a relatively large number of patients with these rare disorders. In addition, a biobank of patient specimens and DNA samples will be established for use in ancillary studies to be performed in addition to this study. By comparing outcome measures between the four liver diseases (i.e., using each disorder as a disease-control for the other disorders), the full impact of each disorder can best be determined in comparison to the other liver diseases. Using the longitudinal database in this fashion, this study will provide an improved understanding of the effects of the cholestatic liver during childhood irrespective of the underlying etiology as well as to the pathophysiology, outcome, and complications of each of the disorders. This initial characterization will allow calculation of sample sizes for future therapeutic intervention clinical trials and provide the baseline to which interventions should be compared.

• Immune-Related Adverse Events after Immune Checkpoint Blockade-Based Therapy are Associated with Improved Survival in Advanced Sarcoma

  Immune activation after immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) can lead to a unique group of adverse events (AEs), which have been associated with improved outcome in many carcinomas. The association between immune-related AEs (irAEs) and outcome in patients with sarcoma is not well studied. This study has two components: (1) a retrospective clinical study of irAEs among 131 patients treated with ICB at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and (2) an analysis of a subset of these patients who have whole transcriptome sequencing available for analysis. In the clinical study portion, we reviewed a cohort of patients with advanced sarcoma treated on prospective clinical trials utilizing ICB-based therapy between April 2017 and January 2020. The objectives were to pool the safety data from each trial, identify irAEs, and correlate them with best overall response by RECIST 1.1, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Association of irAEs with response and survival was assessed using a Cox regression model. A total of 131 patients were included. Forty-two (32%) had at least one irAE of any grade and 16 (12%) had at least one Grade ≥ 3 irAE. On Cox analysis adjusting for clinical covariates that were significant in the univariate setting, the hazard ratio (HR) for an irAE (HR 0.662, 95% CI 0.421 - 1.041) approached, but did not reach statistical significance for PFS (P = 0.074), while patients had a significantly lower HR for OS (HR 0.443, 95% CI 0.246 – 0.798; P = 0.007) compared to those without or before an irAE. Tumor samples with available RNA sequencing data were stratified by presence of an irAE to identify patterns of differential gene expression. In total, 71 unique patients had RNA sequencing available for analysis. The transcriptomes of 31 of these patients have been previously uploaded to dbGaP (phs002852), leaving 36 unique transcriptomes that have not been previously publicly shared. Three patients did not agree for their sequencing to be publicly shared. Therefore, 33 unique patient samples will be uploaded to this dbGaP study. Overall, this study found that gene expression profiling on baseline tumor samples from patients who had an irAE had higher numbers of tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells, CD8+ T cells, and regulatory T cells as well as upregulation of immune and inflammatory pathways.

• Kids First: Genetic Basis of Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders

  Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is estimated to occur in at least 1-5% of all children in the USA and is a major public health issue. However, in addition to alcohol, other susceptibility factors, such as maternal or fetal genetic variation, must play a role as not all children prenatally exposed to alcohol are similarly affected. The proposed study will examine the role of genetic susceptibility for FASD. This work will help to inform more effective intervention efforts for this common congenital disorder.
