• Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TIL) Recognize Unique Somatic Mutations and Mediate Objective Clinical Responses in Metastatic Breast Cancer

  The purpose of this study is to investigate the immunogenicity of tumor mutations in patients with metastatic cancer. Harvest and analysis of progressing metastatic lesions are used for generation of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) cultures and the detections of somatic mutations. In vitro T cell activation assays are used to examine the immune recognition of tumor mutations by autologous TIL. Once a candidate is determined to have a cell product that meets the requirements of one of the Surgery Branch clinical trials, the candidate is evaluated for enrollment in a prospective adoptive cell therapy trial.

• Novel APC Promoter and Exon 1B Deletion and Allelic Silencing in Three Mutation-Negative Classic Familial Adenomatous Polyposis Families

  The ~80% of individuals with classic familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) have detectable mutations in the coding sequence of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. To investigate the 20% of families without detectable causative mutations, we used exome sequencing and second-generation sequencing of the APC locus including non-coding regions. We identified a novel ~11kb deletion 44kb upstream of APC that was present only in affected individuals of three kindreds. SNP analysis showed that this ~11kb deletion was accompanied by silencing of one of the APC alleles in blood-derived RNA of affected individuals.

• Genetics of Eating Disorders

  This genetic study examines Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge Eating Disorder. We performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on 93 unrelated individuals with eating disorders (38 restricted-eating, 55 binge-eating) to identify novel damaging variants. Using an unbiased, data-driven approach, we prioritized candidate genes with an excessive burden of predicted damaging variants. We then empirically tested one top candidate pathway in a mouse model of binge-like eating. We identified an excess of novel damaging variants in 186 genes in the restricted-eating group and 245 genes in the binge-eating group. The list of genes significantly enriched (OR = 4.6, p

• Disease recurrence after pathologic response (Recurrence DNAseq)

  In this study we aim to gain insight into the mechanisms of immune evasion after initial pathologic response to neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibition in macroscopic stage III melanoma by pooling data of the neoadjuvant OpACIN, OpACIN-neo and PRADO trials(EGAD00001012116, EGAS00001004832, EGAD00001006730, EGAS50000000268). Therefore we analyzed in-depth paired baseline(n=10) and recurrent tumor samples of the lymph nodes(n=10) and brain metastasis (n=2) through Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) analyses. Additionally we incorporated transcriptome sequencing data from 22 patients (21 paired-end samples and one single end sample)

• Primary breast tumor heterogeneity through therapy

  We performed whole-exome sequencing on multiple regions (n=2-3) from four primary untreated breast tumors (n=1 HER2+, n=2 ER+/HER2-, n=1 triple-negative), as well as matched normal. We also performed whole-exome sequencing on one region from the pre-treatment diagnostic core biopsy and multiple regions (n=2-6) from the post-treatment surgical specimen for five HER2+ primary breast tumors, as well as matched normal; all were treated with combination chemotherapy and trastuzumab. Analysis of these specimens allows characterization of breast tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution.

• Stage-specific gene and transcript dynamics in human male germ cells

  The testis is one of the most transcriptionallyactive organs, however how germ cell differentiation is controlled at the molecular level remains largely unknown. To study global transcriptional dynamics during human spermatogenesis we sequenced total RNA of human testicular biopsies with 5 specific histological phenotypes: Sertoli cell-only (SCO, n=3), spermatogenic arrests at the spermatogonial (SPG, n=4), spermatocyte (SPC, n=3), and spermatid (SPD, n=3) level, as well as normal spermatogenesis (Normal, n=3). To our knowledge, this work provides the most complete capture of the transcriptome and its dynamics during human spermatogenesis to date.

• The molecular landscape of glioma in patients with Neurofibromatosis 1.

  Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common tumor predisposition syndrome in which glioma is one of the most prominent tumor type. Gliomagenesis in NF1 results in heterogeneous spectrum of tumors, from low grade to high grade glioma, occurring during the entire patient lifespan. In this study, we present the molecular landscape of low- and high-grade glioma in children and adults affected by NF1 (NF1-glioma). 59 tumor samples from 56 NF1-glioma patients with 43 matched normal were profiled with Whole Exome Sequencing, DNA Methylation array (31 tumors) and RNA sequencing (29 tumors).

• 463 newly diagnosed patients with Multiple Myeloma underwent whole exome sequencing of tumour and peripheral blood DNA.

  463 newly diagnosed patients from the UK Myeloma XI clinical trial (NCT01554852) underwent whole exome sequencing plus targeted capture of the IGH/K/L and MYC loci. 200 ng of DNA were processed using NEBNext DNA library prepartion kit and hybridised to the SureSelect Human All Exon V5 Plus. Four samples were pooled and run on one lane of a HiSeq 2000 using 76-bp paired end reads. DNA from CD138+ selected bone marrow cells (myeloma tumour) as well as peripheral white blood cells were analysed and somatic mutations detected.

• Illumina ExomeChip genotyping data from the Cretan Greek isolate collection HELIC MANOLIS

  Isolated populations can empower the identification of rare variation associated with complex traits through next generation association studies. Here we have genotyped individuals from a Greek population isolate on the Illumina HumanExome Beadchip. The HELIC (Hellenic Isolated Cohorts) MANOLIS (Minoan Isolates) collection focuses on Anogia and surrounding Mylopotamos villages. Recruitment of this population-based sample was primarily carried out at the village medical centres. All individuals were older than 17 years and had to have at least one parent from the Mylopotamos area. www.helic.org **The data may not be used for population genetics analyses.**

• Genetic determinants of glycated hemoglobin levels in the Greenlandic Inuit population

  We recently showed that a common genetic variant leads to a remarkably increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the small and historically isolated Greenlandic population. Motivated by this, we aimed at investigating the genetic determinants for glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C). We found no novel associations but saw that for 10 out of 15 known HbA1C loci that the effects in Greenlandic Inuit were similar to previously reported. One locus, ANK1, showed a significant ancestral population specific effect. Our results shed light on the genetics effects across ethnicites.
