• Correlative Studies for Protocol #14-C-0059: T Cells Expressing an Anti-GD2 Chimeric Antigen Receptor in Patients with GD2+ Solid Tumors, a Collaboration with CIMAC-CIDC

  This study is a retrospective correlative analysis of immune cell phenotypes in samples from a Phase I clinical trial (NCT02107963) of GD2 CAR-T cells (GD2-CAR.OX40.28.z.iC9) in children and young adults with osteosarcoma and neuroblastoma. The study was a 3+3 dose-escalation study with four dose levels (1 x 10(5) transduced T cells/kg; 1 x 106 transduced T cells/kg; 3 x 106 transduced T cells/kg; and 1 x 107 transduced T cells/kg). Apheresis and final manufactured GD2 CAR-T product samples were analyzed by bulk RNA sequencing and ATAC sequencing. The patients were stratified into good CAR-T expanders (peak CAR-T expansion >1000 GD2 CAR copies/100ng DNA) and poor CAR-T expansion (peak CAR-T expansion Increased naïve T cell subsets in baseline apheresis are associated with patients who experienced good CAR T cell expansion A T cell exhaustion signature was observed in the manufactured GD2 CAR-T product and may have contributed to lack of efficacy observed in this trial Increased myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) signatures were observed in patients with poor CAR-T expansion CAR-T product in good expanders displayed increased AP-1 factor transcription factor motifs, such as BATF, JUN, and FOS Data provided in dbGaP for this study include: Bulk RNA-Seq data for 11 pre-treatment peripheral blood and 11 GD2 CAR-T product from 14 patients. ATAC sequencing of 22 peripheral blood samples and 5 GD2 CAR-T products from 14 patients.

• Transcriptional Response to Hypoxia in iPSC-Derived Endothelial Cells from a High Altitude Adapted Population

  We established lymphoblastoid cell lines from 10 adult individuals of Tibetan ancestry living in the Chicago area. These lines were reprogrammed to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). We validated genetic ancestry by genome-wide SNP array genotyping and population genetic analyses. After being subjected to standard quality control testing iPSCs were differentiated into endothelial cells. Following differentiation, endothelial cells were isolated via a pull down protocol using beads coated with an antibody for a canonical surface cell marker of the vascular endothelium (CD144). Purified vascular endothelial cells were cultured in parallel in normoxia (20% O2) and hypoxia (1% O2) for 48 hours prior to harvesting and processing for bulk RNA-sequencing. We provide imputed genotype data and bulk RNA-sequencing data in normoxia and in hypoxia for each of the 10 individuals. We also provide multiplexed scRNA-sequencing data for the 10 Tibetan individuals pooled with 10 CHB individuals from the 1000 Genome Project. Additionally, we provide scRNAseq data for the cardiomyocytes derived from the same iPSC lines from the Tibetan individuals pooled together with cardiomyocytes derived from iPSC lines of 10 CHB individuals from the 1000 Genome Project. Lymphoblastoid cell lines from the CHB were reprogrammed to iPSCs and differentiated to cardiomyocytes using the same protocols as used for the Tibetans. The batches of 4 lines were balanced by sex and population. These iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes were cultured in hypoxia (1% O2) for 48 hours and subjected to scRNAseq in pooled batches of 3 or 4 lines. The CHB individuals included in this analysis were: NA18528, NA18531, NA18557, NA18596, NA18606, NA18608, NA18614, NA18619, NA18633, and NA18748.

• Transcriptomics-driven classification of ALAL

  Acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL) is a rare, poor-prognosis subtype of acute leukemia that cannot be assigned to a single hematopoietic lineage. Although ALAL patients are typically treated with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) regimens, optimal treatment choice is hindered by their lineage ambiguity. Therefore, we investigated the added value of transcriptomics for improving lineage assignment, currently based mainly on surface markers. First, we used an in-house pipeline to comprehensively detect genetic lesions in RNA-sequencing data (n=23) with a sensitivity >90%, as confirmed by targeted DNA sequencing. Second, we compared ALAL gene expression profiles (GEPs) with representative AML (n=145), B-ALL (n=223) and T-ALL (n=85) cases. In a principal component analysis, ALALs did not form a separate group, but clustered with AML, B-ALL or T-ALL. Accordingly, a machine learning classifier trained with GEPs of acute leukemias segregated 20/23 ALALs into myeloid-, B- or T-lymphoid leukemia. These 20 cases harbored genetic abnormalities consistent with the classifier-assigned leukemia. Furthermore, ALAL GEPs were deconvoluted with single-cell transcriptional profiles of normal hematopoietic cells using CIBERSORTx, revealing enrichment for signatures of lineages corresponding to the leukemic type predicted by our algorithm. The classifier was validated on an external ALAL cohort (n=24), assigning 75% of the patients to a lineage matching their immunophenotypic and methylation profiles. In conclusion, integrative analysis of RNA-sequencing data can accurately classify most ALAL cases. The pipeline and classifier developed in our study are valuable tools to improve ALAL diagnosis and guide therapeutic decisions.

• Whole Genome Comparisons of Breast Cancers and their Xenotransplants

  Early passage breast cancer xenografts have been proposed as alternatives to cell lines as model systems for studying the basic biology of tumors and for advancing therapy development. This study explores the relatedness of primary disease genomes to their matched xenotransplants. Using paired-end massively parallel sequencing 17 matched progenitor tumor, xenograft and normal trios were sequenced to at least 30-fold coverage with diploid coverage of at least 95% of the genome as determined by SNP array concordance. RNA sequence was generated from the xenograft tumors. The xenografts were derived from a spectrum of tumor samples from patients with both early and advanced breast cancer.

• Single-Cell Genomic Analysis of Gastrointestinal Cancer

  Our study aimed to define the heterogeneity of gastrointestinal cancers at a single-cell resolution. We subjected single-cell suspensions derived from surgical resections of gastrointestinal cancer tissue, paired normal tissue, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or their ex vivo cultures to high-throughput microfluidics based single-cell RNA and DNA sequencing. We analyzed the features of the tumor microenvironment including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, macrophages and lymphocytes to determine their contribution to tumor growth and progression. We also characterized the mechanisms of immunosuppression in these tumors. This analysis led to novel insights into the biology of the microenvironment and also enabled the identification of new treatment targets.

• Bulk RNAseq - Calprotectin in vitro effects on human early hematopoiesis

  To explore the effects of calprotectin (CAL) on early hematopoiesis, we incubated CD34+ cells from four healthy donors for 7 days in the presence of stem cell factor (SCF), FLT3-ligand and thrombopoietin (TPO) without and with CAL, interleukin-6 (IL6) and the IL6_CAL combination before collecting cells. We performed the same experiment with CD34+ cells collected from three patients with JAK2-V617F-mediated myelofibrosis (MF). A total of 135,545 cells from healthy donors and 111,725 cells from myelofibrosis patients were analyzed by single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) using the 10X Chromium droplet-based platform. Bulk RNAseq 4 conditons : -Control - Calprotectin - IL-6 - Calprotectin+IL-6

• Transcriptomic Profiling after B-Cell Depletion Reveals Central and Peripheral Immune Cell Changes in Multiple Sclerosis

  We investigated the immunological effects of B cell depletion therapy using ocrelizumab in treatment-naïve relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients. Our primary aim was to delineate transcriptomic alterations in immune cell populations in peripheral blood before and after therapy, using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq). This study included 18 newly diagnosed, treatment-naïve RRMS patients who provided matched pre- and 6-month post-treatment peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). A secondary cohort of five patients also contributed paired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. All RRMS patients were treated with ocrelizumab, except one patient in the CSF cohort who received rituximab.

• Ovarian carcinosarcoma genomics and eribulin response

  Ovarian carcinosarcoma (OCS) is an aggressive and rare tumour type with limited treatment options. OCS is hypothesised to develop via the combination theory, with a single progenitor resulting in carcinomatous and sarcomatous components, or alternatively via the conversion theory, with the sarcomatous component developing from the carcinomatous component through epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). In this study, we analysed DNA variants from isolated carcinoma and sarcoma components to show that OCS from 18 women is monoclonal. RNA sequencing indicated the carcinoma components were more mesenchymal when compared with pure epithelial ovarian carcinomas, supporting the conversion theory and suggesting that EMT is important in the formation of these tumours.

• Methylation-based classification of human mesenchymal chondrosarcoma

  We applied methylome and copy number profiling to a set of 45 well characterized MCS cases to evaluate their potential diagnostic value. Notably, the findings were reproducible also when analysing the round cell and cartilaginous component separately. Furthermore, four outliers were identified by methylome profiling for which the diagnosis had to be revised. Methylome profiling represents a sensitive, specific and reliable tool to support the diagnosis of MCS, particularly if only the round cell component is obtained in a biopsy and the diagnosis is not suspected. It can furthermore aid in confirming the diagnosis in case RNA sequencing for the HEY1::NCOA2 fusion transcript is not available.
