• Center Common Disease Genomics [CCDG] - CVD - TAICHI

  The TaiChi consortium consists of 6 studies that collaborated initially in a large scale metabochip study, and became an ongoing consortium for studies of cardiometabolic disease in the Chinese population in Taiwan. The six studies included the following: 1) SAPPHIRe (Stanford-Asian Pacific Program in Hypertension and Insulin Resistance), a family based study established in 1995 with an initial goal of identifying major genetic loci underlying hypertension and insulin resistance in East Asian populations, with Taiwan subjects participating in the TaiChi consortium; 2) TCAGEN (Taiwan Coronary Artery Disease GENetic), a cohort study that the enrolled patients undergoing coronary angiography or percutaneous intervention at the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) in the setting of either stable angina pectoris or prior myocardial infarction; 3) TACT (TAiwan Coronary and Transcatheter intervention), a cohort study enrolled patients with angina pectoris and objective documentation of myocardial ischemia who underwent diagnostic coronary angiography and/or revascularization any time after October 2000 at the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) (similar to TCAGEN but recruitment was independent of TCAGEN); 4) Taiwan DRAGON (Taiwan Diabetes and RelAted Genetic COmplicatioN), a cohort study of Type 2 diabetes at Taichung Veterans General Hospital (Taichung VGH) in Taiwan, with participants including individuals with either newly diagnosed or established diabetes (subjects with hyperglycemia who did not meet diagnostic criteria for Type 2 DM were not included); 5) TCAD (Taichung CAD study), includes patients with a variety of cardiovascular diseases who received care at the Taichung Veterans General Hospital (Taichung VGH), i.e. specifically individuals who were hospitalized for diagnostic and interventional coronary angiography examinations and treatment; 6) TUDR (Taiwan US Diabetic Retinopathy) enrolled subjects with Type 2 diabetes who received care at Taichung Veteran General Hospital (Taichung VGH), and a small number of subjects from Taipei Tri-Service General Hospital (TSGH); TUDR subjects underwent a complete ophthalmic and fundus examination to carefully document the presence and extent of retinopathy. From these 6 studies, subjects were selected based on completeness of standard metabolic phenotyping and knowledge of cardiac disease status (early onset coronary disease), to undergo whole genome sequencing at the Broad.

• Chondrosarcoma_Targeted_Sequencing_Study

  This Study uses a focused bait pull down library method to target findings of Chondrosarcoma whole genome and whole exome sequencing studies in order to validate findings. This method will also be used on a larger set of tumour only samples in order to find precedence of these finding in a larger set of patients.

• BRCA Mutation Status Shapes the Microenvironment of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

  This study was established in order to address how the stromal landscape is influenced by BRCA-mutated and BRCA Wild-type (WT) pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). A primary cohort of 12 PDAC patients (7 BRCA-WT and 5 germline BRCA-mut) was analyzed by laser-capture microdissection, RNA-sequencing and multiplexed immunofluorescence.

• Genomic Characterization of Metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer

  Biopsies of castration resistant prostate cancer metastases were subjected to whole genome sequencing (WGS), along with RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq). The overarching goal of the study is to illuminate molecular mechanisms of acquired resistance to therapeutic agents, and particularly androgen signaling inhibitors, in the treatment of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

• Genetic and Genomic Stability Across Lymphoblastoid Cell Line Expansions

  This study was focused on exploring genetic and genomic stability across cell line expansions. We used DNA and cell lines sampled from six apparently healthy research participants. We assayed genome-wide genetic variants and inferred structural variants for DNA extracted from blood, from transformed cell cultures, and from three generations of expansions.

• LCCC 1108: Development of a Tumor Molecular Analyses Program and Its Use to Support Treatment Decisions (UNCseqTM)

  The primary objective of this specimen correlative study was two-fold: to provide a mechanism for the association of known molecular alterations with clinical outcomes, and to provide rapid genetic profiling of alterations with known clinical utility using tumor and germline specimens to support treatment decisions.

• Contribution of Genetic Polymorphisms to the Abuse Liability of Oxycodone

  The proposed study examined the prevalence of various genetic polymorphisms thought to be involved in opioid abuse among current heroin users. In addition to providing blood samples for genetics analysis, participants completed a number of questionnaires that allowed us to learn detailed information about their current and history of opioid drug use.

• Cancer Risk Estimates Related to Susceptibility Genes (CARRIERS)

  The CARRIERS study utilized custom amplicon-based variant screening of known cancer predisposition genes in germline DNA from breast cancer cases and age matched unaffected controls taken from predominantly cohort-based breast cancer case-control studies to establish the risks of breast cancer associated with pathogenic variants in these genes.

  Study phs002820

• RNA Sequence-Based Analysis Used to Compare Breast Primary and Metastatic Tumor Pairs

  The goal of this study is to capture the transcriptome landscape of luminal and basal-like metastatic breast tumors. We will aim to show the importance of using the most up-to-date cancer biopsy for detecting cancer drivers that were often not present in the primary tumor.

• Metabolism and Genetics of Hypobetalipoproteinemia

  Hypobetalipoproteinemia is characterized by extremely low levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) is a monogenic form of hypobetalipoproteinemia caused by mutations in the APOB gene. There are cases of hypobetalipoproteinemia not caused by mutations in APOB, however. The purpose of this study is to identify novel genetic causes of hypobetalipoproteinemia.
