The_effects_of_chemotherapy_and_radiation_in_human_oesophageal_epithelium

Human oesophagus is a patchwork of competing mutant clones. We wish to see how this patchwork is altered under the extreme selection pressures of chemotherapy and radiotherapy both individually and combined. We will sequence 2mm2 contiguous pieces of oesophageal epithelium from patients who have undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy to assess how the mutational landscape has changed.

Translation of non-canonical open reading frames as a cancer cell survival mechanism in childhood medulloblastoma

A hallmark of high-risk childhood medulloblastoma is the dysregulation of RNA translation. Currently, it is unknown whether medulloblastoma dysregulates the translation of putatively oncogenic non-canonical open reading frames. To address this question, we performed ribosome profiling of 32 medulloblastoma tissues and cell lines and observed widespread non-canonical ORF translation. We then developed a step-wise approach to employ multiple CRISPR-Cas9 screens to elucidate functional non-canonical ORFs implicated in medulloblastoma cell survival. We determined that multiple lncRNA-ORFs and upstream open reading frames (uORFs) exhibited selective functionality independent of the main coding sequence. One of these, ASNSD1-uORF or ASDURF, was upregulated, associated with the MYC family oncogenes, and was required for medulloblastoma cell survival through engagement with the prefoldin-like chaperone complex. Our findings underscore the fundamental importance of non-canonical ORF translation in medulloblastoma and provide a rationale to include these ORFs in future cancer genomics studies seeking to define new cancer targets.

Genomic evolution and transcriptional changes in the evolution of prostate cancer into neuroendocrine and ductal carcinoma types (RNAseq)

Prostate cancer is typically of acinar adenocarcinoma type but can occasionally present as neuro-endocrine and/or ductal type carcinoma. These are associated with clinically aggressive disease and the former often arises on a background of androgen deprivation therapy, although it can al-so arise de novo. Two prostate cancer cases were sequenced by exome capture from archival tis-sue. Case 1 was de novo small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and ductal adenocarcinoma with 3 longitudinal samples over 5 years. Case 2 was a single time point after development of treatment related neuroendocrine prostate carcinoma. Case 1 showed whole genome doubling in all sam-ples and focal amplification of AR in all samples except the first time point. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a common ancestry for the ductal and small cell carcinoma. Case 2 showed 13q loss (involving RB1) in both adenocarcinoma and small cell carcinoma regions, and 3p gain, 4p loss, 17p loss (involving TP53) in the latter. By using highly curated samples, we demonstrate for the first time that small cell neuroendocrine and ductal prostatic carcinoma can have a common an-cestry and the process of evolution over time. We highlight whole genome doubling in a patient with prostate cancer relapse, reinforcing its poor prognostic nature.

Intra-prostatic tumour evolution, steps in metastatic spread and histogenomic associations revealed by integration of multi-region whole genome sequencing with histopathological features

We performed whole genome sequencing on 42 prostate cancer samples from the prostate, seminal vesicles and regional lymph nodes of five treatment-naive patients with locally advanced disease who underwent radical prostatectomy. Using cancer cell fractions computed from single nucleotide variants and copy number alterations, we reconstructed the tumour phylogenies, which in turn allowed us to infer key molecular steps in the progression of prostate cancer in these individuals. We mapped the clonal composition of cancer sampled across the prostate in each individual and inferred the routes of spread of cancer cells within the prostate and to seminal vesicles and lymph nodes.

Machine Learning Signal Enrichment for Ultrasensitive Plasma Tumor Burden Monitoring

In solid tumor oncology, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) is poised to transform care through accurate assessment of minimal residual disease (MRD) and therapeutic response monitoring. To overcome the sparsity of ctDNA fragments in low tumor fraction (TF) settings and increase MRD sensitivity, we previously leveraged genome-wide mutational integration through plasma whole genome sequencing (WGS). We now introduce MRD-EDGE, a composite machine learning-guided WGS ctDNA single nucleotide variant (SNV) and copy number variant (CNV) detection platform designed to increase signal enrichment. MRD-EDGESNV uses deep learning and a ctDNA-specific feature space to increase SNV signal-to-noise enrichment in WGS by 300X compared to previous WGS error suppression. MRD-EDGECNV also reduces the degree of aneuploidy needed for ultrasensitive CNV detection through WGS from 1 Gb to 200 Mb, thereby expanding its applicability to a wider range of solid tumors. We harness the improved performance to identify MRD following surgery in multiple cancer types, track changes in tumor burden in response to neoadjuvant immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and demonstrate ctDNA shedding in precancerous colorectal adenomas. Finally, the radical signal-to-noise enrichment in MRD-EDGESNV enables de novo mutation calling in melanoma and small cell lung cancer (SCLC) without matched tumor, yielding clinically informative TF monitoring for patients on immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI).

Spatiotemporal evolution and inter-patient heterogeneity in primary and recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Head and neck cancer squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are heterogeneous in terms of origin and aetiology. In addition, there is uncertainty about the spatiotemporal genetic evolution from initial diagnosis to recurrence/metastasis (R/M) after primary treatments and further disease progression following systemic treatment. Changes in the genetic profile have implications on the selection of appropriate treatments for patients, especially in the era of targeted therapies and immunotherapies. Here, we analysed a cohort of 11 HNSCC patients with metachronous R/M, among whom nine had paired primary and R/M samples suitable for next-generation sequencing (multiple R/M samples collected at different time points were available for some of the patients). At the genomic level, the R/M samples shared a fraction of the somatic single nucleotide variants (SNVs) with the index primary tumours, but they also acquired many additional mutations, while losing only a few others. A similar behaviour was also observed when examining the changes of mutational signatures between primary and R/M samples. Overall, R/M appeared thus more genetically diverse than the respective primary tumours. The transcriptomic analysis showed that R/M samples had lower immune cell infiltration and several genes related to immune response were significantly downregulated compared to the primary samples. Our results underline the importance of analysing multiple samples per patient to obtain a more complete picture of the patient’s tumour and advocates a re-biopsy in the event of R/M and treatment failure, in order to select the most appropriate therapeutic strategy.

Discrepancies in Tumour Mutation Burden (TMB) reporting from sequential Endobronchial ultrasound trans bronchial needle aspiration (EBUS TBNA) samples within single lymph node stations

Introduction: Tumour Mutation Burden (TMB) is a potential biomarker for immune therapies. Identifying factors that may affect TMB prediction is key to its utility as biomarker for treatment options. Here we investigated parameters that might affect TMB using cytology smears obtained from endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS TBNA)-sampled malignant lymph nodes, which are often the only diagnostic samples collected in patients with advanced lung cancer. Methods: Individual Diff-Quik cytology smears were prepared for each needle pass from the same enlarged malignant mediastinal lymph nodes. DNA extracted from smears of each pass underwent sequencing using a large gene panel sequencing (TSO500, Illumina). TMB was estimated for each individual needle pass using the TSO500 Local App v. 2.0 (Illumina). Results: Twenty patients had two or more Diff-Quik smears (total 45 smears) which passed sequencing quality control. Average TMB for all smears was 8.7 ± 5.0 mutations per megabase (Mb). Sixteen of the 20 patients had paired samples with minimal differences in TMB score (average difference 1.3 ± 0.85). Paired samples from 13 patients had concordant TMB in terms of scores being below or above a threshold of 10 mutations/Mb. Samples from seven patients had discrepant TMB, with four cases in particular exhibiting an average difference of 11.3 ± 2.7 mutations/Mb. Factors affecting TMB calling involved tumour content of the samples, the amount of DNA used in sequencing as well as bone fide intra tumour heterogeneity between paired samples. Conclusions: TMB assessment is feasible from EBUS-TBNA derived Diff-Quik slides from a single needle pass. Repeated samples of one or more lymph nodes have minimal variation in TMB in most cases (80%), suggesting accuracy of the test overall. To enhance accuracy of the result, care should be taken in relation to the tumour content of the cytology smear. Further, clinicians should be aware that even slight differences in lymph node site selection could give rise to variable genomics and discrepant TMB due to tumour heterogeneity. Therefore, it would be reasonable for multi-lymph node site analysis of TMB to be performed using EBUS TBNA aspirates from different easily accessible lymph nodes. Further investigations need to determine whether these samples should be combined as one sample or tested separately.

Clinical and genetic factors associated with tumor response to neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy, survival and recurrence risk in rectal cancer

Rectal cancer poses challenges in preoperative treatment response, with up to 30% achieving a complete response (CR). Personalized treatment relies on accurate identification of responders at diagnosis. This study aimed to unravel CR determinants, overall survival (OS), and time to recurrence (TTR) using clinical and targeted sequencing data. Analyzing 402 patients undergoing preoperative treatment, tumor stage, size, and treatment emerged as robust response predictors. CR rates were higher in smaller, early-stage, and intensively treated tumors. Targeted sequencing analyzed 216 cases, while 120 patients provided hotspot mutation data. KRAS mutation dramatically reduced CR odds by over 50% (odds ratio [OR]=0.3 in the targeted sequencing and OR=0.4 hotspot cohorts, respectively). In contrast, SMAD4 and SYNE1 mutations were associated with higher CR rates (OR=6.0 and 6.8, respectively). Favorable OS was linked to younger age, CR, and low baseline carcinoembryonic antigen levels. Notably, CR and an APC mutation increased TTR, while a BRAF mutation negatively affected TTR. Beyond tumor burden, SMAD4 and SYNE1 mutations significantly influenced CR. KRAS mutations independently correlated with radiotherapy resistance, and BRAF mutations heightened recurrence risk. Intriguingly, nonresponding tumors with initially small sizes carried a higher risk of recurrence. These findings offer insights into rectal cancer treatment response, guiding personalized therapeutic strategies. By uncovering factors impacting CR, OS, and TTR, this study underscores the importance of tailored approaches for rectal cancer patients. These findings, based on extensive analysis and mutation data, pave the way for personalized interventions, optimizing outcomes in the challenges of rectal cancer preoperative treatment.

ExomeSeq Neoantigen Immunogenicity Landscapes

Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy is a cornerstone of oncologic treatment for patients with advanced stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other malignancies. Neoantigen immunoediting drives ICB efficacy, yet the fundamental physiochemical characteristics of neoantigens and how neoantigen immunogenicity shapes treatment response remains poorly understood. To help address these questions, a prospective clinical trial of NSCLC patients treated with nivolumab was conducted. We assessed genomic alterations in tumors from 58 patients and performed large-scale neoepitope immunogenicity analyses, before and during treatment (CheckMate153, CA209-153). Tumors were analyzed by whole-exome and transcriptome sequencing. In responding patients, loss of mutation and neoantigen burden early during therapy associated with clinical benefit. We evaluated the immunogenicity of 1,453 candidate neoantigens and identified 502 neopeptides that bound to MHC I and 196 neopeptides that were immunogenically recognized by T cells in the setting of nivolumab treatment. These T cell reactive neoantigens were differentially present in clonal populations that underwent distinctive evolutionary trajectories across responders and nonresponders. Mapping these neoantigens to tumor clonal dynamics and clinical response revealed strong selection against immunogenic neoantigen harboring clones compared to non-immunogenic clones. Using this large collection of neoantigens, we identified position specific amino acid features related to immunogenicity, which we used to develop and validate an immunogenicity score. Changes in the genomic and neoantigen immunogenicity landscapes were accompanied by temporal changes in the tumor microenvironment. Nivolumab-induced microenvironmental evolution in NSCLC shared some similarities with that in melanoma, yet critical differences in immunologic programs were apparent from comparative network analysis between tumor types. This study provides unprecedented molecular portraits of the neoantigen landscapes underlying nivolumab’s mechanism of action.

Effects of busulfan, fludarabine and clofarabine treatment on human small intestinal organoids generated from healthy donors

The intestine is vulnerable to chemotherapy-induced toxicity due to its high epithelial proliferative rate, making gut toxicity an off-target effect in several cancer treatments, including conditioning regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT). In HSCT, intestinal damage is an important factor in the development of Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD), an immune complication in which donor immune cells attack the recipient's tissues. Here, we developed a novel human intestinal organoid-based 3D model system to study the effects of chemotherapy-induced intestinal epithelial damage at the RNA level. We show that chemotherapy conditioning specifically reprograms the intestinal epithelial transcriptome after treatment with either busulfan (3.5μM), fludarabine (15μM) or clofarabine (0.5μM) for 24h. This knowledge can potentially enable us to understand which changes undergo in healthy tissues upon conditioning and how those are related with immune activation typical in GVHD.

Immune and clinicopathological features predict HER2-positive breast cancer prognosis in the neoadjuvant NeoALTTO and CALGB 40601 trials

The identification of prognostic drivers in patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy is crucial for treatment optimization in HER2-positive breast cancer, with the immune microenvironment being a key factor. Here, we investigated the complexity of B and T cell receptor (BCR and TCR) repertoires, reflecting antigen-specific immune response, in the context of two phase III trials, namely NeoALTTO and CALGB 40601, evaluating neoadjuvant paclitaxel with trastuzumab and/or lapatinib in women affected by HER2-positive breast cancer. BCR/TCR features were heterogeneous, and BCR measures describing clonal expansion demonstrated independent prognostic value. A model developed in NeoALTTO and validated in CALGB 40601 predicted event-free survival (EFS) by integrating hormone receptor and clinical nodal status, treatment response (breast pCR)breast pathological complete response (pCR) as well as tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and BCR evenness, measuring the equality of BCR clonal distribution. The HER2-EveNT score derived from the model allows the identification of patients with 5-year EFS > 90%, and, in those not achieving pCR, of a subgroup of immune-enriched tumors with an excellent outcome despite residual disease.

Complex structural variation patterns in pediatric solid tumors

In this study, we performed systematic characterization of chromoplexy, chromothripsis and extrachromosomal DNA across five types of pediatric solid tumors: neuroblastoma, Ewing sarcoma, Wilms tumor, hepatoblastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma. Almost half of all tumors had at least one complex SV and we identified candidate pathogenic events that affect genes or chromosomal alterations known to be relevant in these cancer types. In conclusion, complex SVs are prevalent and highly pathogenic in pediatric solid tumors.

Establishment and characterization of circulating tumor cells-derived organoids from metastatic breast cancer patients.

Over the last decade, molecular stratification and associated therapies have greatly improved the treatment options and prognosis of patients diagnosed with breast cancer. However, metastatic disease remains incurable. Breast cancer cells mainly spread to the lung, liver, bone and brain and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that migrate in the lymphatics or blood have been implicated as the cellular source of metastasis. Detailed molecular and functional characterization of patient CTCs remains poor due to their low number in patient’s bloodstream. In addition, CTCs are difficult to culture and expand ex vivo. Here we have established a novel method for culturing and unlimitedly expanding breast cancer patient-derived CTCs in CTC-derived organoids (CDOs). Our platform can serve as a foundation for serial longitudinal isolation and expansion of breast cancer cells from peripheral blood. This may enable the identification and functional validation of therapy resistance mechanisms during disease progression, which can be used for new approaches in precision medicine.
