• Breast Cancer Follow Up Series

  This study's purpose is to use data generated in whole genome and exome Breast Cancer sequencing to target specific areas in multiple other Breast Cancer samples. These areas will then be subjected to PCR in multiple cases, tagged and then pool the resultant amplicons. These amplicons will then be sequenced on the Illumina GAII. This is hoped to show the prevalence of previous findings in multiple individuals in a high throughput method.

• Somatic rearrangements causing oncogenic ectodomain deletions of FGFR1 in squamous cell lung cancer

  The discovery of frequent 8p11-p12 amplifications in squamous cell lung cancer (SQLC) has fueled hopes that FGFR1, located inside this amplicon, might be a therapeutic target. In a clinical trial, only 11% of patients with 8p11 amplification (detected by FISH) responded to FGFR kinase inhibitor treatment. To understand the mechanism of FGFR1 dependency, we performed deep genomic characterization of 52 SQLCs with 8p11-p12 amplification, including 10 tumors obtained from patients who had been treated with FGFR inhibitors. We discovered somatically altered variants of FGFR1 with deletion of exons 1-8 that resulted from intragenic tail-to-tail rearrangements. These ectodomain-deficient FGFR1 variants (ΔEC-FGFR1) were expressed in the affected tumors and were tumorigenic in both in vitro and in vivo models of lung cancer. Mechanistically, breakage-fusion-bridges were the source of 8p11-p12 amplification, resulting from frequent head-to-head and tail-to-tail rearrangements. Generally, tail-to-tail rearrangements within or in close proximity upstream of FGFR1 were associated with FGFR1 dependency. Thus, the genomic events shaping the architecture of the 8p11-p12 amplicon provide a mechanistic explanation for the emergence of FGFR1-driven SQLC. Specifically, we believe that FGFR1 ectodomain-deficient and FGFR1-centered amplifications caused by tail-to-tail rearrangements are a novel somatic genomic event that might be predictive of therapeutically relevant FGFR1 dependency.

• Using RNA-sequencing to characterize the resistance to lirafugratinib

  In addition to Exome-sequencing, we used RNA-sequencing to also characterize resistance to lirafugratinib with whole exome sequencing in patients with FGFR2-driven cancers, treated in the phase 1/2 ReFocus trial (NCT04526106) and enrolled in the UNLOCK program at Gustave Roussy

• Kaposi_sarcoma_exome

  Agilent whole exome hybridisation capture will be performed on genomic DNA derived from Kaposi sarcoma cancer and matched normal DNA from the same patients. Next Generation sequencing will be performed on the resulting exome libraries and mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the identification of novel cancer genes

• Analysis of Multiparametric MR imaging and tumor tissue sampling to identify response and acquired resistance to HIF-2 inhibition in patients with advanced clear cell renal cell carcinoma enrolled in a phase 1, multiple-dose, dose-escalation trial of PT2385, a HIF-2alpha inhibitor

• Immunoreactive_p53_areas_in_human_skin_2

  Previous work has suggested that in mice there may be a difference in mutational burden between areas expressing stabilised p53 protein and others. We wish to see if this observation holds true in human sun-exposed epidermis. We will take 0.25mm punch biopsies from peeled human skin epidermis which will be submitted to the low input pipeline prior to sequencing.

• A Comprehensive Catalogue of Somatic Mutations from a Human Cancer Genome

  We previously reported the whole-genome sequencing of the well-studied human malignant melanoma cell line, COLO-829, and a lymphoblastoid cell line from the same individual, providing the first comprehensive catalogue of somatic mutations from an individual cancer (Pleasance et al. (2010) Nature 463, 191). This initial study was carried out using the Illumina Genome Analyzer II, largely using paired-end reads of 75 bases from standard Illumina paired-end libraries. Here we report the results of sequencing the genomes of COLO-829 and its matched lymphoblastoid sample using HiSeq2000 with v3 cluster-generation and sequencing chemistries. This has significantly improved the evenness and completeness of genomic coverage, particularly in areas of extreme sequence composition that were underrepresented in the initial study.
