• Clinical and Molecular Features of Acquired Resistance to Immunotherapy in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

  PD-(L)1 blockade has been shown to promote durable responses in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and has been rapidly incorporated into the treatment regimens for many with advanced disease. Despite this, mechanisms of acquired resistance (AR) to PD-(L)1 have not been well understood. To address the clinical and molecular landscape of AR to PD-(L)1 blockade in NSCLC patients, a large clinical cohort of AR to PD-(L)1 blockade in lung cancer was examined. In conjunction, a systematic genomic and transcriptomic analysis in a subset of patients (n = 29) with available tissue samples was conducted. To investigate the molecular mechanisms of AR to PD-1 blockade from pre- and/or post-treatment tumors, microarray-based whole transcriptome expression data for 29 tumor samples, and whole exome sequencing (WES) data from 34 tumor samples was generated from this subset. Microarray data was uploaded to the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Most AR tumors showed retained or increased inflammatory characteristics with significant upregulation of IFNγ which was suggestive of persistent albeit insufficient anti-tumor immune response. This finding expounds upon the prior pre-clinical and translational data supporting the intricate role of IFNγ in sensitivity and resistance to immunotherapy. Whereas initial IFNγ exposure may be fundamental to T cell activation (a hallmark of immune response), persistent IFNγ related effects and upregulation may potentially signal immune dysfunction and IFNγ insensitivity in contrast. The inflammatory phenotypes identified have implications for future rational development of new immunotherapy strategies for patients with AR.

• Co-amplification of MYC and CCNE1 in aggressive childhood osteosarcoma

  Osteosarcoma, the most common primary malignant tumour of bone, affects children and adults alike. No fundamental biological differences between paediatric and adult osteosarcoma are known. Here, we apply multi-region whole genome sequencing to an index case of a four-year old child whose aggressive tumour harboured high level, focal amplifications of MYC and CCNE1 connected by translocations. We re-analysed copy number readouts of 258 cases of high-grade osteosarcoma from three different cohorts and identified an additional three cases with MYC and CCNE1 co-amplification, confined to children and associated with aggressive disease. Examining the age distribution of MYC and CCNE1 amplicons across all cases revealed a significant enrichment of focal MYC amplification in children, whereas CCNE1 amplification is not strictly restricted to children. Our findings indicate that amplification of the MYC oncogene, known to be associated with a poor outcome, delineates a variant of osteosarcoma specific to childhood. When co-amplified with CCNE1, it may herald an aggressive disease course.

• Immune Profiles Study

  This study assesses glioma patient blood methylation longitudinally beginning pre-surgery through other clinically important timepoints. Progression and survival are studied in relation to methylation derived immunologic profiles and other characteristics. For this study, patients scheduled for surgery at University of California San Francisco (UCSF) for a possible newly diagnosed glioma (grades 2-4) or recurrent grade 2/3 glioma were consented and enrolled. Patients had blood collected pre-surgery and, if the pathology results confirm a glioma, every few weeks or months during their treatment (up to 30 total timepoints). Blood immunomethylomic profiles were measured at these timepoints to assess associations with glioma patient outcomes, clinical measures, other known prognostic markers, and imaging characteristics.

• Rare germline sequence variants, copy number variations, expression alterations, methylation variations and disease susceptibility in familial melanoma

  Although a number of high-risk melanoma genes have been identified, they account for melanoma risk in less than 40% of melanoma-prone families. The major goals of our research are to identify novel high-penetrance genes for familial melanoma in melanoma-prone families without known mutations and to identify modifier factors, including genetic and epigenetic, in melanoma-prone families with and without known major mutations. We are using whole exome sequencing to identify additional high-risk susceptibility genes and using targeted sequencing to follow up on the top genes in additional family members and in population-based melanoma cases and controls. We are also using RNASeq to investigate genome-wide allele-specific expression and eQTLs in these families to identify genes with expression alteration, which will provide additional information for gene discovery. In addition, we also conducted genome-wide copy number variation (CNV), methylation, and miRNA expression profiling analyses in our melanoma families with the goal of identifying genetic and epigenetic factors as disease modifiers.

• The International Consortium for Prostate Cancer Genetics Genome Wide Association Study of Familial Prostate Cancer

  Initially, the ICPCG focused largely on high-risk prostate cancer pedigrees using linkage analysis. However, association studies have also been informative to find prostate cancer susceptibility variants in the genome. We hypothesize that genome-wide (GW) association studies of familial cases of prostate cancer will have the power to identify rarer and perhaps less penetrant risk variants associated with prostate cancer than have been identified to date. Our approach will be to examine evidence for association in selected, independent cases from high-risk pedigrees; we hypothesize that they represent a more homogeneous set of cases with potentially different associations. Use of the 5M plus exome SNP platform will allow us to include in our search more rare variants in our search than have ever been investigated for prostate cancer. Aim 1. Identify a set of independent prostate cancer cases selected from ICPCG high-risk prostate cancer pedigrees that have 3 or more related prostate cancer cases and have an average age at diagnosis ≤ 75 years. Identify appropriate matched controls from participating ICPCG groups/ populations. Aim 2. Perform GW SNP genotyping with the Illumina 5M plus exome SNP set on the set of independent prostate cancer cases and controls described in Aim 1. Aim 3. Perform association analyses appropriately matching controls for different ICPCG populations and groups. There will be a two-stage design for confirmation. Aim 4. Test reported associations using the extensive sample set available to us by collaboration with the PRACTICAL consortium that has access to 50 000 DNA samples from 34 groups internationally (over 7,000 of whom are positive for prostate cancer family history).

• Yale Center for Mendelian Genomics (YCMG)

  From 2012-2021, Yale University was home to one of four national centers created by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to study the genetics of rare inherited diseases. Researchers at Yale University, University of Washington, the Broad Institute and a center operated jointly by Baylor University and Johns Hopkins University analyzed the genomes of thousands of patients who suffer from more than 6,000 rare Mendelian disorders affecting more than 25 million individuals in United States. The Centers for Mendelian Genomics (CMG) applied next-generation sequencing and computational approaches to discover the genes and variants that underlie Mendelian disorders. The discovery of new genes that cause Mendelian conditions expanded our understanding about their biology to facilitate their diagnosis, and potentially indicate new treatments. The CMG provided free exome sequencing and analysis to collaborating investigators for qualified phenotypes.

• University of Washington Developmental Single Cell Atlas

  We set out to generate a human cell atlas of both gene expression and chromatin accessibility using tissues obtained during development. In this study, we applied an assay for single cell profiling of gene expression based on three-level combinatorial indexing (sci-RNA-seq3) to 121 fetal tissue samples representing 15 organs, altogether profiling transcription in over 4 million single cells. In parallel, we devised an improved assay for single cell profiling of chromatin accessibility also based on three-level combinatorial indexing (sci-ATAC-seq3). We applied this method to 53 fetal tissue samples representing 15 organs, altogether profiling on the order of one million single cells. From these data, we identify and characterize diverse human cell types and annotate them with respect to marker genes, expression and regulatory modules. These data comprise a rich resource for the exploration of human biology.

• Therapeutic Targeting of Ependymoma as Informed by Oncogenic Enhancer Profiling

  Genomic sequencing has driven precision-based oncology therapy; however, genetic drivers remain unknown or non-targetable for many malignancies, demanding alternative approaches to identify therapeutic leads. Ependymomas are chemotherapy-resistant brain tumours, which, despite genomic sequencing, lack effective molecular targets. Here, we mapped active chromatin landscapes in 42 primary ependymomas in two non-overlapping primary ependymoma cohorts. Enhancer regions revealed novel oncogenes, molecular targets, and pathways, which when subjected to small molecule inhibitor or shRNA treatment, increased survival and slowed proliferation in mouse and neurosphere patient-derived models of ependymomas. This study represents one of the largest enhancer mapping study of any cancer type to date, and provides a framework for target and drug discovery for other cancers recalcitrant to therapeutic development because of their lack of known genetic drivers.

• Targeted DNA sequencing and mRNA sequencing data from patients with peritoneal metastasis from colorectal cancer

  Patients with peritoneal metastasis from colorectal cancer (PM-CRC) have inferior prognosis and respond particularly poorly to chemotherapy. This study aims to identify the molecular explanation for the observed clinical behavior and suggest novel treatment strategies in PM-CRC. Tumor samples (230) from a Norwegian national cohort undergoing surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with mitomycin C (MMC) for PM-CRC were subjected to targeted DNA sequencing, and associations with clinical data were analyzed. mRNA sequencing was conducted on a subset of 30 samples to compare gene expression in tumors harboring BRAF or KRAS mutations and wild-type tumors.
