• Identification of genes involved in congenital disorders of glycosylation and 3-methylglutaconic aciduria (2018-03-14)

  Identification of genes involved in congenital disorders of glycosylation and 3-methylglutaconic aciduria. There are more than 100 genes known for congenital disorders of glycosylation and new disorders are discovered each year. WE included patients with a so far unsolved glycosylation disease. The diagnostic group 3-methyglutaconic aciduria is a heterogenous group of disorders mostly caused by abnormal phospholipid synthesis or in association with mitochondrial dysfunction. We included patients with a so far unsolved disease and 3-methylglutaconic aciduria. This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ . This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2018-03-14.

• WGS/WES analysis refines molecular subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma

  This work aims to identify homogeneous and robust molecular subtypes in HCC based on a large, homogenous and well-annotated cohort. We performed whole genome/exome sequencing (WGS/WES) on 529 HCC from 461 patients collected mainly in France. Based on the genomic data, we identified 9 robust HCC subtypes primarily driven by key mutations. We further characterized these subtypes using genomic and clinicopathological features. Among the 9 subtypes, 5 belonged to chromosome instable tumors, while 3 belonged to chromosome stable tumors. Our subtypes were associated with prognosis and showed distinct distributions across features like etiology and gender. This study offers a comprehensive molecular classification of HCC, enhancing our understanding of hepatocarcinogenesis and supporting the development of genome-based precision medicine for liver cancer.

• Combination Immune Checkpoint Inhibition in Australian Rare Cancers_WES

  Combination immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) with anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 blockade has demonstrated significant clinical activity across tumour types. Rare cancer patients have limited treatment options due to the scarcity of studies of novel treatment options, so they are often offered chemotherapies untested in their disease. ONJ2016-001/CA209-538 is a prospective, multicentre clinical trial of combination ICI (ipilimumab and nivolumab) in patients with advanced rare cancers, including biliary tract, adrenocortical, rare gynaecological and neuroendocrine cancers (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02923934). The primary endpoint is clinical benefit rate (complete response + partial response + stable disease >3 months) by RECIST 1.1. This study involves generation and analysis of pre-treatment formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumour DNA sequencing data, paired with germline DNA sequencing data, to potentially identify genomic biomarkers that may associate with clinical benefit or other clinical efficacy / toxicity metrics.

• The G2 gene expression signature and MYC overexpression are independent poor prognostic factors in childhood high-grade osteosarcoma

  Key objective Are the prognostic transcriptomic G1/G2 gene expression signature, MYC overexpression, and MYC amplification replicable stratifying biomarkers for future clinical trials in high-grade osteosarcoma? Knowledge gathered In an unselected cohort, the G2 gene expression signature and MYC overexpression, but not MYC amplification, were independently associated with poor event-free and overall survival. Relevance Transcriptomic biomarkers may serve as stratifying factors that guide the management of patients with high-grade osteosarcoma. Current data underlines the importance of prospective validation of the G1/G2 signature and MYC overexpression in an international, multicenter, study.

• Paired WES and low coverage WGS of osteosarcoma

  Longitudinal genome-sequencing analysis of 12 patients with metastatic or refractory osteosarcoma. The study was approved at the University Hospital Basel, following the approval of the ethical committee for mutational analysis of anonymized samples (“Ethikkommission beider Basel” ref. 274/12). Informed consent was obtained from all 12 patients. All tumor samples were evaluated by an experienced bone pathologist to confirm the diagnosis. WES and low coverage WGS are aligned against the reference genome GRCh37. More details in the associated publication.

• MultiOMICS study of a pair of infant monozygotic twins with concordant B-cell ALL (WGS)

  B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-cell ALL) is the most common cancer in childhood. Studying identical twins with B-cell ALL provides a unique and tractable model for deciphering the developmental timing of pre- and post-natal mutations contributing to clonal evolution. To date, this has mainly focused on major cytogenetic subgroups of childhood B-cell ALL, including MLL fusions, ETV6-RUNX1, hyperdiploidy, and BCR-ABL1. However, formal demonstration of the prenatal origin and “backtracking” the natural history of the leukemia remains understudied in “B-other”/Normal Karyotype (NK) B-cell ALL. To characterize the genetic landscape of this particular leukemia subtype, we performed whole genome DNA- and B-cell receptor (BCR)- on a pair of 8-month-old monozygotic twins diagnosed with concordant “B-other”/NK B-cell ALL.

• Whole exome sequencing for clarification of rare causes of axonal Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (2017-08-16)

  The project is focused on the axonal forms of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease. We have selected 13 families (7 from Spain and 6 from Czech Republic) that have been indepth clinically assessed and previously tested for mutations in known CMT genes without causal variants characterised. In these patients we expect to discover several CMT2 genes. Thus, we requested for exome sequencing of 45 DNAs:27 exomes in families from Spain and 18 exomes in the families from Czech Republic. This data is part of a pre-publication release. For information on the proper use of pre-publication data shared by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute (including details of any publication moratoria), please see http://www.sanger.ac.uk/datasharing/ This dataset contains all the data available for this study on 2017-08-16.

• Complete DNA/RNA sequencing dataset for Australian ICGC ovarian cancer sequencing project 2014-07-07

  Complete WGS and RNA-Seq dataset for Australian ICGC ovarian cancer sequencing project 2014-07-07, representing 93 donors. Sequencing was performed on Illumina HiSeq. Alignment of the lane-level fastq data was performed with bwa (WGS data) and RSEM (transcriptome data). For this dataset lane-level .bam files have been merged and de-duplicated to create a single bam file for each sample type (tumour/normal) for each donor. This dataset supersedes all previous datasets for this study. 2016-08-08 updated with 14 outstanding RNA-seq samples & corresponding RSEM bams 2016-12-07 updated with 7 outstanding RNA-seq controls and corresponding RSEM bams

• Shallow whole genome sequencing

  This dataset contains a collection of tumour samples from high grade serous ovarian carcinoma patients with recurrent disease collected near the point of diagnosis as well as tumour samples collected after patient relapse upon or some time after study entry. The majority of diagnosis samples were preserved in neutral buffered formalin whereas the majority of post-relapse samples were preserved in universal molecular fixative (UMFIX, Sakura Finetek USA, Inc). DNA was extracted and whole genome sequencing libraries were prepared either using the TruSeq DNA Nano kit (Illumina) or the ThruPLEX DNA-Seq Kit (Takara Bio), which were respectively sequenced at low depth (~0.1-0.5X) on illumina HiSeq 2500 and HiSeq 4000 sequencing platforms. Sequenced reads were aligned to the GRCh37 reference genome (release hs37d5).

• MultiOMICS study of a pair of infant monozygotic twins with concordant B-cell ALL (WGBS)

  B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-cell ALL) is the most common cancer in childhood. Studying identical twins with B-cell ALL provides a unique and tractable model for deciphering the developmental timing of pre- and post-natal mutations contributing to clonal evolution. To date, this has mainly focused on major cytogenetic subgroups of childhood B-cell ALL, including MLL fusions, ETV6-RUNX1, hyperdiploidy, and BCR-ABL1. However, formal demonstration of the prenatal origin and “backtracking” the natural history of the leukemia remains understudied in “B-other”/Normal Karyotype (NK) B-cell ALL. To characterize the epigenetic landscape of this particular leukemia subtype, we performed DNA bisulfite-sequencing on a pair of 8-month-old monozygotic twins diagnosed with concordant “B-other”/NK B-cell ALL.
