• High Density SNP Association Analysis of Melanoma: Case-Control and Outcomes Investigation

  This research builds upon an extensive resource of melanoma cases and hospital based controls collected over several years at the U.T. M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. The goal of this research is to identify novel susceptibility and outcome-related genes for melanoma using a systematic genome-wide association-based approach. Our goal is to conduct high-density SNP association and outcome studies. This dbGaP study contains samples from 2000 European ancestry cases and 1000 European ancestry controls using the Illumina OMNI1-Quad SNP chip. As a part of an ongoing R01 project, we have epidemiological data together with candidate gene results for 1000 of the melanoma cases and the controls. With regard to the outcome aspect of our design, as part of our melanoma Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) grant, our MelCore database contains comprehensive, prospectively maintained clinical information from all melanoma patients included in the study cohort, including primary tumor histopathology and staging information, standard and investigational blood tumor markers, details of surgical and systemic therapies, and extensive follow-up information, including time to relapse or recurrence, pattern of recurrence and survival duration. Finally, we intend to collaborate with the GenoMEL collaboration so we can jointly evaluate each other's findings. The goal of our analysis will be to identify novel genetic factors predisposing the development of melanoma, as well as genetic factors controlling melanoma stage at presentation, recurrence and progression. This study is part of the Gene Environment Association Studies initiative (GENEVA, http://www.genevastudy.org) funded by the trans-NIH Genes, Environment, and Health Initiative (GEI). The overarching goal is to identify novel genetic factors that contribute to melanoma through large-scale genome-wide association studies of 2000 European ancestry cases and 1000 European ancestry controls. Genotyping was performed at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Inherited Disease Research (CIDR). Data cleaning and harmonization were done at the GEI-funded GENEVA Coordinating Center at the University of Washington.

• Population Architecture using Genomics and Epidemiology (PAGE): Causal Variants Across the Life Course (CALiCo): Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA)

  CALiCo CARDIA The Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study is a study examining how heart disease develops in adults. It began in 1986 with a group of 5115 black and white men and women aged 18-30 years. The participants were selected so that there would be approximately the same number of people in subgroups of race, gender, education (high school or less and more than high school) and age (18-24 and 25-30) in Birmingham, AL; Chicago, IL; Minneapolis, MN; and Oakland, CA. These same participants were asked to participate in follow-up examinations during 1987-1988 (Year 2), 1990-1991 (Year 5), 1992-1993 (Year 7), 1995-1996 (Year 10), 2000-2001 (Year 15), and 2005-2006 (Year 20). A majority of the group has been examined at each of the follow-up examinations (90%, 86%, 81%, 79%, 74%, and 72%, respectively). While the specifics of each examination has differed somewhat, data have been collected on a variety of factors believed to be related to heart disease. These include conditions with clear links to heart disease such as blood pressure, cholesterol and other lipids. Data have also been collected on physical measurements such as weight and skinfold fat as well as lifestyle factors such as substance use (tobacco and alcohol), dietary and exercise patterns, behavioral and psychological variables, medical and family history, and other chemistries (e.g., insulin and glucose). In addition, subclinical atherosclerosis was measured via echocardiography during Years 5 and 10, computed tomography during Years 15 and 20, and carotid ultrasound during Year 20. A detailed description of the study and results from the first examination are summarized in Cutter et al (Controlled Clinical Trials, Volume 12, Number 1 [supplement], pages 1S-77S, 1991).

• WES Elucidation of Pathogenetic Mechanisms for Immune System Disorders and NIAID Pilot of Genetic Incidental Finding Management

  Background: - There are many types of immune disorders. These range from rare immune deficiencies to allergies to autoimmune disease like rheumatoid arthritis. Genes are the instructions our body uses to work and develop. A new technology called whole exome sequencing may help find the cause of these disorders. Whole exome sequencing is a way to look at many genes at once for errors. Researchers hope to find new gene changes that lead to immune disorders. Additionally, researchers are interested in finding the best way to manage unexpected but important findings by whole exome sequencing. Objectives: - To better understand genetic causes of immune system disorders. Also, to better understand people s thoughts and feelings about immune system disorders and new genomic testing. Eligibility: - People ages 0 100 with an immune disorder or a relative with an immune disorder. People must be at least 2 to be evaluated at the NIH clinical center. People must be at least 12 to do the survey/interview portion of the study. Design: Participants will have their genes sequenced. They may be asked for a new sample of blood. If participants cannot come for a study visit, they can have a blood sample collected by their local lab or doctor and sent by mail. Researchers may or may not find the cause of the participant s immune disorder. Participants will learn that information. Some participants may be asked to return to NIH to get results and have more tests. Researchers may share information with other studies. The data will be anonymous. For the survey part of the study, participants will answer questions about their or their relative s immune disorder. They will also answer about their thoughts and feelings about genomic testing. Some participants will be asked for a brief interview to ask more about the survey topics. There may be more follow-up after several months. From clinicaltrials.gov

• Center for Common Disease Genomics [CCDG] - Cardiovascular: PEGASUS-TIMI 54

  This study is a part of NHGRI's Center for Common Disease Genomics, which is a collaborative large-scale genome sequencing effort to comprehensively identify rare risk and protective variants contributing to multiple common disease phenotypes. Current estimates anticipate that the CCDG program will sequence approximately 140K whole genomes and 225K whole exomes during the life of the project. The Cardiovascular Disease working group of the CCDG considered five diseases: early-onset coronary artery disease (EOCAD), stroke, atrial fibrillation, congestive heart failure and type 2 diabetes. Atrial fibrillation will affect between 6-12 million individuals in the US by 2050. AF also is associated with increased risks of stroke, dementia, heart failure, death, and high health care costs. Many risk factors for AF have been identified, including advancing age, cardiovascular disease (CVD), and CVD risk factors. However, there is little knowledge how to prevent AF. Furthermore, therapies for AF are only partially effective, and are themselves associated with substantial morbidity. Previously, heritable forms of AF have been considered rare; yet in the last decade, it has been established that AF, and in particular early-onset forms of AF, are heritable. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provide a powerful tool to identify common variants underlying disease risk. The AFGen Consortium currently consists of investigators from more than 25 studies with >20,000 individuals with AF and >100,000 without AF. In the latest analyses, 14 loci have been identified for AF1 . Broadly, the loci implicate genes related to cardiopulmonary development, cardiac-expressed ion channels, and cell signaling molecules. Source: ccdg.rutgers.eduFor this study, The Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard generated genetic data for 7,481 individuals from the PEGASUS-TIMI 54 clinical trial run by Brigham and Women's Hospital TIMI study group using whole exome sequencing and whole genome genotyping (Infinium Global Screening Array); all samples serving as controls.

• Advancing Precision Oncology in a Humanized, Fully Autologous Mouse Model

  Progress in the early detection and treatment of cancer requires accurate model systems to further evaluate new, promising discoveries. Small animal and, in particular, mouse model systems are attractive to researchers for numerous reasons, including their ease of use and well-described platforms. The ability to grow human tumors in immune-deficient mice (so-called patient-derived xenografts, or PDXs) allows researchers to work directly with human cancer tissue in a controlled setting. However, PDX models are limited by their lack of an intact immune system. Immunotherapy has revolutionized clinical oncology, but lacks pre-clinical models of the human immune system and human cancer to investigate new modalities and limitations/toxicities of treatment regimens. The broad objective of this study is to validate an in vivo model to evaluate human tumors in the context of a complete and intact human immune system in a completely personalized and autologous fashion to study cancer immunotherapy. Herein, we will: (1) validate the ability of our humanized system to serve as a model for cancer immunotherapy treatment response and toxicity in patients with melanoma, including immunotherapy checkpoint blockade and vaccine strategies, and (2) extend our current work in melanoma by validating the ability to establish humanized mice and evaluate tumor growth and leukocyte development in autologous human pancreatic and colorectal tumors established in humanized mice. In each of these areas, we will leverage our multi-institutional team's individual expertise along with our institutional infrastructure to maximize the success of the experimental aims. The results from this project will be widely available to the general research community for future, hypothesis-driven research. Taken together, our study will meet multiple goals and address several unmet needs in cancer immunotherapy, thus significantly enhancing the applicability of a fully autologous and immunocompetent precision model system for use in translational oncology research.

• ctDNA to predict risk of progression and death after trifluridin/tipiracil therapy

  Background. Late-line treatment in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) can improve the prognosis. However, not every patient has a benefit and may experience severe side effects. Thus, predictive/prognostic biomarkers are urgently needed. Despite many promising results, the role of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis in trifluridin/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) treated mCRC patients is so far still elusive. Study design. This prospective non-interventional translational biomarker phase II study enrolled 30 metastatic CRC patients treated with FTD/TPI. The primary study aim was to identify a molecular biomarker to predict overall survival (OS) benefit upon FTD/TPI treatment. Methods. mCRC patients (60% male, 40% female) with FTD/TPI therapy were included. Molecular profiling in cell-free DNA from plasma was performed prior to treatment and on average 4, 8 and 12 weeks after FTD/TPI initiation. Tumor levels were assessed as the highest variant allele frequency (hVAF) and correlated with OS. Uni- and multivariate analyses for survival were performed with clinical variables. Multivariate analyses for survival and treatment efficacy were adjusted to age, gender and ECOG performance status. Results. Compared to previous data, our disease control rate of 30% was lower with a median OS of 8.1 months and a median PFS of 3.2 months. At baseline (BL) and the first two follow-ups (FU), a hVAF cut-off of 7.5% was most discriminative (BL HR 0.39 95% CI 0.16 - 0.98 P=0.0212, FU1 HR 0.30 95% CI 0.12 -0.77 P=0.0021, FU2 HR 0.23 95% CI 0.08-0.70 P=0.0004) whereas at the last follow-up the stratification was most pronounced at a 15% cut-off. An elevated hVAF trajectory over time was associated with a higher risk of death. Conclusion. ctDNA is detectable in a high proportion of mCRC patients. Changes in ctDNA levels are associated with survival among FTD/TPI therapy and may identify patients who benefit most from treatment in these late-stage disease.
