• Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies of Bladder Cancer Risk

  This meta-analysis consists of genome-wide genotype for 13,447 cases and 342,580 controls of European ancestry to identify novel susceptibility loci for bladder cancer. Cases were defined as histologically confirmed primary carcinoma of the urinary bladder of all stages, including carcinoma in situ (International Classification of Diseases for Oncology, C670-C679, 188). All histologic subtypes were included. Summary-level results for the association between genotyped/imputed variants and risk of bladder cancer are included.

• Transcriptomic and Epigenetic Profiling of SCLC Patient Samples

  Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive disease with poor outcomes and limited treatment options. Recent studies have identified transcriptionally defined subsets of SCLC that may allow for the personalization of treatment. Here we use transcriptomic sequencing and methylation profiling (RRBS) of biopsy and cfDNA to develop a highly accurate DNA methylation-based classifier to distinguish SCLC subtypes. These results demonstrate the clinical feasibility of molecular subtyping of SCLC.

• Identification of Novel Therapeutic Targets for Calcific Aortic Valve Stenosis Using Integrative Genomics

  In order to identify novel therapeutic targets for calcific aortic valve stenosis, we have generated a large transcriptomic dataset from RNA sequencing of human aortic valve tissues from 500 individuals undergoing aortic valve replacement or heart transplant at the Institut universitaire de cardiologie et de pneumologie de Québec – Université Laval (QUEBEC-CAVS-RNA). This dataset represents a unique resource to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying aortic valve diseases.

• Genetic Evaluation of Autoinflammatory Diseases

  Many pediatric patients with early-onset autoinflammatory disease (AID) phenotypes are mutation-negative for genetically known AIDs. Recent data suggest a role for Type-I interferon (IFN) dysregulation in causing AID phenotypes with clinical features that are distinct from those found in patients with IL-1 mediated AIDs. We screened patients for the presence of an IFN-response gene signature (IRS) to characterize their clinical phenotypes, IFN-related biomarkers, and genetic causes.

• Platinum-based chemotherapy induces opposing effects on immunotherapy response-related spatial and stromal biomarkers in the bladder cancer microenvironment

  The goal of the current project was to investigate the modulation of the tumor-immune microenvironment (TME) by neo-adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in muscle-invasive bladder cancer. Furthermore, we aimed to focus on how this modulation affects biomarkers of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Additionally, we aimed to explore the differences between MVAC and gemcitabine-containing platinum-based regimens regarding their effects on the bladder TME.

• Panel sequencing of endocrine-resistant breast cancer

  Patients with endocrine-resistant breast cancer in Stockholm Sweden. DNA obtained from patients primary and relapse tumors, and tumor-free lymph nodes used as germline control. DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue and sequenced by 370-gene panel-based sequencing with Kapa HyperPlus library preparation and Twist Bioscience hybrid capture. Custom bait sets (panels) from Twist Bioscience. Paired end 2x150 bp using NovaSeq X. The data is presented as fastq-files.

• LCM-isolated buccal epithelial cell sequencing

  Single buccal epithelial cells were dissected and collected on an adhesive cap with laser capture microdissection (LCM) with approximately 13-60 cells per cap. Each adhesive cap containing 13-60 cells was independently processed with QIAamp DNA micro kit (Qiagen) for DNA extraction. The NEBNext ultra II FS DNA library kit was used to prepare DNA libraries with low starting material. Paired-end whole genome sequencing reads were obtained with the NovaSeq.

• DNA methylation database for gynecological cancer detection, classification and assay development

  DNA methylation changes are associated with cancer the best predictor of the presence of cancer. In order to detect and classify gynecological cancer, we performed MeD-seq to generate DNA methylation profiles of vulvar, cervical, endometrial, fallopian tube and ovarian cancers and their associated healthy tissues. DNA methylation profiles were used to find general cancer, regional cancer and specific cancer biomarkers that can be used for cancer detection, classification and treatment monitoring.

• Cergentis FFPE-TLC sequencing of colorectal carcinoma

  In this study, formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded targeted locus capture (FFPE-TLC) sequencing is used as a novel technology for targeted detection of tumor-specific genomic structural variants (SVs) in the primary tumor of 29 colorectal cancer patients with metastatic disease. The tumor region was macrodissected and sequenced for 29 patients, and the "normal" region of the same slide was macrodissected and sequenced for 8 of these patients. SVs were found in the common fragile site (CFS)-associated genes MACROD2, PRKN, FHIT and WWOX as well as SVs caused by three LINE transposable elements. Tumor-specificity of selected SVs was independently verified by droplet digital PCR of tumor tissue DNA and their applicability as plasma circulating tumor DNA biomarkers was demonstrated. This dataset contains the hg19 reference alignment of the FFPE-TLC sequences for all 29 colorectal cancers and 8 adjacent normals.
