• Mutational spectrum of highly differentiated, fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcoma (set 1).

  Pediatric PAX-FOXO1 fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcoma represents a diverse spectrum of tumors. In this study, the mutational spectrum of 22 fusion-negative rhabdomyosarcomas with high, rhabdomyoma-like levels of differentiation was evaluated using OncoPanel v.2 (OPv2), an Agilent SureSelect custom designed bait set consisting of the coding regions of 504 cancer-relevant genes. Corresponding normal tissue was not available. Discarded normal human skeletal muscle, obtained from 7 donors without tumor history, were also included in the sequencing run.

• PELICAN33 longitudinal clinical and autopsy phenomic assessment in lethal metastatic prostate cancer

  Objective: To identify novel phenotypes and features associated with metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) outcome, and to identify biomarker and data requirements to be tested in future precision oncology trials. Design, Setting, and Participants: We analyzed deep longitudinal clinical, neuroendocrine expression, and autopsy data of 33 men who died from mPC between 1995 and 2004 (PELICAN33), and related findings to mPC biomarkers reported in the literature. Intervention: 33 men prospectively consented to participate in an integrated clinical-molecular rapid autopsy study of mPC.

• Genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic profiling of GCTB

  Giant cell tumor of bone is a rare bone neoplasm driven by oncogenic hotspot G34W/L/V mutations in the non-canonical histone variant H3.3. This study provides primary data of genomic (WGS), transcriptomic (RNA-seq) and epigenomic (histone mark ChIP-seq, WGBS, ATAC-seq) profiling of primary GCTB samples from several cohorts in Germany and Korea. We confirm the H3.3-G34 mutations as sole genetic drivers of GCTB, and describe the epigenetic alterations in mutant GCTB stromal cells.

• SNP arrays for chemotherapy response project

  In this study, a total of 300 patients with MIBC receiving chemotherapy were included; 62 received NAC before cystectomy and 245 received first-line chemotherapy upon detection of locally-advanced (T4b) or metastatic disease. Treatment response, defined as pathological downstaging (< pTa,CIS,N0) after NAC or complete or partial response after first-line treatment (RECIST criteria). Illumina SNP arrays (760k markers) were performed using DNA from 49 tumors and associated germline DNA (49x median coverage). Data provided here consist of 98 files.

• Mutational Landscape of Plasmablastic Lymphoma

  Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) represents a clinically heterogeneous subtype of aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although targeted sequencing studies and a single center whole exome sequencing (WES) study in HIV+ patients recently revealed several genes, associated with PBL pathogenesis, the global mutational landscape and transcriptional profile of PBL remain elusive. To inform on disease-associated mutational drivers, mutational patterns and perturbed pathways in HIV+ and HIV- PBL we performed WES and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of 34 PBL tumors.

• Single-cell RNA sequencing reveals cell-type specific eQTLs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells

  This proof-of-concept study shows that single-cell RNA sequencing in ~25,000 peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of 45 donors allows for the identification of cell type-specific cis expression quantitative trait loci effects (cis-eQTLs). Moreover, the significant top-eQTL effects show consistent allelic direction (94%) with previously published whole blood deepSAGE data. These cell type-specific eQTLs may give us additional insight into the downstream consequences of genetic risk factors for immune-mediated diseases.

• Relapse series of two Pediatric ALL patients

  In this proof of principle study, we performed whole genome sequencing of two cases with multiple relapses in order to investigate whether groups of mutations separated in time show distinct mutational signatures. In patient 1, who experienced two relapses, the analysis unraveled a continuous interplay of aberrant AID/APOBEC-associated activities. Patient 2 had three relapses. We identified episodic mutational processes at diagnosis and first relapse leading to mutations resembling UV light-driven DNA damage, and thiopurine-associated damage at first relapse.

• Whole genome analysis of mutation hotspots in gastric cancer

  Tissue-specific driver mutations in non-coding genomic regions remain undefined for most cancer types. In this study, we unbiasedly analysed 212 gastric cancer whole genomes to identify recurrently mutated non-coding regions in gastric cancer. Applying comprehensive statistical approa- ches to accurately model background mutational processes, we observe significant enrich- ment of non-coding indels (insertions/deletions) in three gastric lineage-specific genes. We further identify 34 mutation hotspots, of which 11 overlap CTCF binding sites (CBSs).

• LCM-ATACseq on human lung macrophages

  In this study we employed Laser Capture Microdissection (LCM) for the multimodal profiling of lung macrophages cell populations as a function of location within the healthy tissue. In detail, macrophage mini-bulks (~100 cells) were collected from 4 healthy human donors in 5 different locations of the airways (a total of 20 biopsies), including parenchyma (L1 – lower left lobe (LLL); L6 – 80% distance from LLL tip), trachea (L2), bronchi (L3 – 1st/2nd generation; L5 – 3rd/4th generation), and processed for ATAC-seq.

• Exploring_the_landscape_of_somatic_mutations_in_normal_tissue___GI___TPS___WGS

  The aim of this project is to investigate somatic mutations, including rates of mutations and signatures, and clonal dynamics in normal (non-cancerous) human tissues from the gastrointestinal tract. The project will involve the study of normal tissues from healthy individuals and those with specific candidate diseases. We are utilising laser capture microscopy to identify and isolate specific cell populations which are then subjected to whole genome sequencing to estimate mutational burdens and begin to understand clonal structures across the normal tissues.
