• Distinct evolutionary trajectories of primary high grade serous ovarian cancers revealed through spatial mutational profiling

  High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) is characterized by poor outcome, often attributed to the emergence of treatment-resistant subclones. We sought to measure the degree of genomic diversity within primary, untreated HGSCs to examine the natural state of tumour evolution prior to therapy. We performed exome sequencing, copy number analysis, targeted amplicon deep sequencing and gene expression profiling on 31 spatially and temporally separated HGSC tumour specimens (six patients), including ovarian masses, distant metastases and fallopian tube lesions. We found widespread intratumoural variation in mutation, copy number and gene expression profiles, with key driver alterations in genes present in only a subset of samples (eg PIK3CA, CTNNB1, NF1). On average, only 51.5% of mutations were present in every sample of a given case (range 10.2 to 91.4%), with TP53 as the only somatic mutation consistently present in all samples. Complex segmental aneuploidies, such as whole-genome doubling, were present in a subset of samples from the same individual, with divergent copy number changes segregating independently of point mutation acquisition. Reconstruction of evolutionary histories showed one patient with mixed HGSC and endometrioid histology, with common aetiologic origin in the fallopian tube and subsequent selection of different driver mutations in the histologically distinct samples. In this patient, we observed mixed cell populations in the early fallopian tube lesion, indicating that diversity arises at early stages of tumourigenesis. Our results revealed that HGSCs exhibit highly individual evolutionary trajectories and diverse genomic tapestries prior to therapy, exposing an essential biological characteristic to inform future design of personalized therapeutic solutions and investigation of drug-resistance mechanisms

We sought to measure the degree of genomic diversity within primary, untreated HGSC to examine the natural state of tumor evolution prior to therapy. We performed exome sequencing, copy number analysis, targeted amplicon deep sequencing and gene expression profiling on thirty-one spatially and temporally separated HGSC tumor specimens (six patients) including ovarian masses, distant metastases, and fallopian tube lesions. We found widespread intra-tumoral variation in mutation, copy number, and gene expression profiles, with key driver alterations in genes present in only a subset of samples (e.g. PIK3CA, CTNNB1, NF1).

Our results reveal that HGSC exhibit highly individual evolutionary trajectories and diverse genomic tapestries prior to therapy, exposing an essential biological characteristic to inform future design of personalized therapeutic solutions and investigation of drug resistance mechanisms.

• Kibbutzim Family study

  The Kibbutzim Family Study (KFS) was established in 1992 to investigate the environmental and genetic determinants of cardiometabolic risk factors and their change over time. The participants belong to large families living in close-knit communities, called “Kibbutzim”, in Northern Israel. The Kibbutz has been a communal settlement, which has created a relatively homogeneous environment for its members. Kibbutz members are mostly of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, with the remaining members belonging to other Jewish subgroups. Participants were recruited in two phases from six Kibbutzim. In the first recruitment phase of the study (1992–1993) 500 individuals from 80 extended families (range 2 to 43) were examined. During the second phase (1999–2000), all participants from the first phase were invited for repeat examinations (80% response rate) and additional new participants were recruited, giving a total of 922 individuals from 150 extended families (range 2 to 55). Families were invited to participate if they consisted of at least four individuals who (i) lived in the Kibbutz, (ii) spanned at least two generations, and (iii) were at least 15 years old. Families were retained if at least two family members consented to participate in the study. Overall, 1033 participants were recruited; 111 were examined only in the first phase, 533 only in the second phase, and 389 were included in both. 901 individuals were successfully genotyped using Illumina HumanCoreExome BeadChip.

• NICHD Genomic and Proteomic Network for Preterm Birth Research (GPN)

  We performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to study the Spontaneous Preterm birth (SPTB). Maternal and neonatal DNA from 743 SPTB (20 to and less than 34 weeks), and 752 controls (39 to and less than 42 weeks) who fully consented for public research usage were collected from participants in several clinical centers in Alabama, Illinois, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Texas, and Utah. Cases were 1:1-matched with controls according to race/ethnicity (White, Hispanics, African Americans, and Others), maternal age (<20, 20-29, 30-39, 40+), and parity (yes or no). To determine the case-control status for each participant, a Gestational Age (GA) was determined. DNA samples were taken from blood or saliva if blood was not available. Automated DNA extractions were performed on the Qiagen M48 robot, and samples were organized in 96-well plates with barcoding and sample tracking systems. Subsequent manipulations were performed on the Biomek FX liquid handling workstation with 96-channel pipetting. DNA quantitation was performed by dye-based assay on a Molecular Devices SpectraMax Plus plate reader. Samples were genotyped using Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0. This work was conducted at the Microarray Facility at the University of Pennsylvania. Patient data were collected through chart reviews and patient interviews, which included Demographic information (parental age, race, ethnicity, etc.); Medical history (pre-pregnancy weight, height, medications, STD history, medical conditions, etc.); Social history (marital status, years of education, alcohol use and tobacco use); Obstetrical history including outcome of all prior pregnancies and dates of termination; History of preterm labor or premature rupture of membranes symptoms, evaluation or hospitalization for those symptoms in current pregnancy; Medications taken during current pregnancy; History of cervical evaluation (manually or ultrasonographically) or fetal fibronectin measurements; Pregnancy complications; Labor (type, indications, membrane status, and induction method); Delivery type and indications for cesarean section; Neonatal outcome (sex, weight, length, Apgar score, neonatal complications, admission to intensive care unit, etc.); and Maternal family history of SPTB.

• E5103 Correlative Studies

  ECOG-ACRIN E5103 (E5103) was a phase III adjuvant breast cancer trial that randomized 4994 patients with node-positive or high-risk node-negative breast cancer to intravenous doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide every 2 or 3 weeks (at the discretion of treating physician), for four cycles of adriamycin and cyclophosphamide (AC) followed by 12 weeks of weekly paclitaxel (80 mg/m2) alone (Arm A), or to the same chemotherapy with either concurrent bevacizumab (Arm B), or concurrent plus sequential bevacizumab (Arm C). To develop predictive genetic biomarkers for chemotherapy efficacy and toxicities, we have successfully performed genome-wide genotyping and whole exome sequencing in the germline (blood) DNA of 3215 and 672 patients, respectively, from the E5103 trial to investigate the association of genetic variants with chemotherapy efficacy and toxicities. Case and control studies were performed with genome-wide analyses (GWAS) and whole exome analyses (WES) across all arms of E5103 to identify genotypes at single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and deleterious gene mutations that were associated with paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN). Through GWAS, we have identified a SNP, rs3125923, and through WES, Cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR), that was significantly associated with grade 3-4 TIPN.

• UK10K_OBESITY_GS

  In the UK10K project we propose a series of complementary genetic approaches to find new low frequency/rare variants contributing to disease phenotypes. These will be based on obtaining the genome wide sequence of 4000 samples from the TwinsUK and ALSPAC cohorts (at 6x sequence coverage), and the exome sequence (protein coding regions and related conserved sequence) of 6000 samples selected for extreme phenotypes. Our studies will focus primarily on cardiovascular-related quantitative traits, obesity and related metabolic traits, neurodevelopmental disorders and a limited number of extreme clinical phenotypes that will provide proof-of-concept for future familial trait sequencing. We will analyse directly quantitative traits in the cohorts and the selected traits in the extreme samples, and also use imputation down to 0.1% allele frequency to extend the analyses to further sample sets with genome wide genotype data. In each case we will investigate indels and larger structural variants as well as SNPs, and use statistical methods that combine rare variants in a locus or pathway as well as single-variant approaches. The GS samples are part of the Obesity group and will undergo exome sequencing.

• Genome-wide cell-free DNA fragmentation in patients with cancer

  Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in the blood provides a noninvasive diagnostic avenue for patients with cancer. However, characteristics of the origins and molecular features of cfDNA are poorly understood. We developed an approach to evaluate fragmentation patterns of cfDNA across the genome and found that cfDNA profiles of healthy individuals reflected nucleosomal patterns of white blood cells, while patients with cancer had altered fragmentation profiles. We applied this method to analyze fragmentation profiles of 236 patients with breast, colorectal, lung, ovarian, pancreatic, gastric, or bile duct cancers and 245 healthy individuals. A machine learning model incorporating genome-wide fragmentation features had sensitivities of detection ranging from 57% to >99% among the seven cancer types at 98% specificity, with an overall AUC of 0.94. Fragmentation profiles could be used to identify the tissue of origin of the cancers to a limited number of sites in 75% of cases. Combining our approach with mutation based cfDNA analyses detected 91% of cancer patients. The results of these analyses highlight important properties of cfDNA and provide a proof of principle approach for screening, early detection, and monitoring of human cancer.

• Whole-Genome Sequencing of Salivary Gland Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

  Adenoid cystic carcinomas (ACCs) of the salivary glands are challenging to understand, treat, and cure. To better understand the genetic alterations underlying the pathogenesis of these tumors, we performed comprehensive genome analyses of 25 fresh-frozen tumors, including whole genome sequencing, expression and pathway analyses. In addition to the well-described MYB-NFIB fusion which was found in 11 tumors (44%), we observed five different rearrangements involving the NFIB transcription factor gene in seven tumors (28%). Taken together, NFIB translocations occurred in 15 of 25 samples (60%, 95%CI=41–77%). In addition, mRNA expression analysis of 17 tumors revealed overexpression of NFIB in ACC tumors compared with normal tissues (p=0.002). There was no difference in NFIB mRNA expression in tumors with NFIB fusions compared to those without. We also report somatic mutations of genes involved in the axonal guidance and Rho family signaling pathways. Finally, we confirm previously described alterations in genes related to chromatin regulation and Notch signaling. Our findings suggest a separate role for NFIB in ACC oncogenesis and highlight important signaling pathways for future functional characterization and potential therapeutic targeting.

• Mutational landscape of the transcriptome offers putative targets for immunotherapy of myeloproliferative neoplasms

  In this study, we aimed to comprehensively characterize in 113 myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) patients the mutational landscape of the granulocyte transcriptome using RNA sequencing data. We implemented workflows for fusion and variant calling, and differential splicing analysis for patients with hotspot SF3B1 mutations. Finally, we characterized the neoantigen landscape on individualized level taking each patient's HLA genotype (derived from the same RNA-seq dataset) into account.

• Whole genome sequencing data of paediatric KMT2A-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia

  Pediatric KMT2A-rearranged leukemia is an aggressive subtype of leukemia commonly seen in infants (less tha 1 year old) and young children. It involves rearrangements of the KMT2A gene (formerly MLL) on chromosome 11q23, resulting in fusion genes that drive uncontrolled cell growth. This subtype is most often found in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and is associated with a poor prognosis. In infants, the 5-year event-free and overall survival rates are around 35–40%. Despite intensive chemotherapy, outcomes remain challenging, prompting ongoing research into targeted therapies and novel treatment strategies.
