• Colon Cancer Family Registry (Colon CFR)

  The Colon Cancer Family Registry Cohort (CCFRC www.coloncfr.org) is a cohort of families recruited through six study sites located in the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The CCFRC was formed as a resource to support studies on the etiology, prevention, and clinical management of colorectal cancer. Recruitment protocols fall broadly into two main categories: population-based and clinic-based ascertainment. Between 1998 and 2013, the CCFR recruited and interviewed probands who were either recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer that was reported to state or regional population cancer registries in the United States (Washington, California, Arizona, Minnesota, Colorado, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and Hawaii), Australia (Victoria), and Canada (Ontario) or were from multiple-case families referred to family-cancer clinics in the United States (Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio), Australia (Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth, Brisbane, and Sydney), New Zealand (Auckland), and Canada. Cases with known familial adenomatous polyposis were excluded. Once recruited, probands were asked for permission to contact their relatives for recruitment. Collectively, we have enrolled 42,49874 participants in 15,048 families who participated in standardized protocols used to collect information regarding family cancer history and colorectal cancer risk factors and biospecimens. All participants of population-based case families (excluding control-families) and clinic-based families are asked to provide updates on their personal and family history of cancer as well as their history of surgery, cancer screening, and some risk factors every 4-5 years either by telephone interview or by self-completed questionnaire via mail or online (PMID: 17982118).

• Identification and phenotypic characterization of neoantigen-specific cytotoxic CD4+ T cells in endometrial cancer

  Tumor-reactive CD4+ T cells often accumulate in the tumor microenvironment (TME) in human cancer, but their functions and roles in anti-tumor responses remain elusive. Here, we investigated the immunopeptidome of HLA class II (HLA-II)-positive endometrial cancer with inflamed TME using a proteogenomic approach. We identified HLA-II neoantigens, one of which induced polyclonal CD4+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) responses. We experimentally demonstrate that neoantigen-specific CD4+ TILs lyse target cells in an HLA-II-dependent manner. Single cell analysis of the TME coupled with T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing revealed the presence of CD4+ T cell clusters characterized by CXCL13 expression. The CXCL13+ clusters contained two subclusters with distinct cytotoxic gene expression patterns. The identified neoantigen-specific CD4+ T cells were found exclusively in one of the CXCL13-positive subclusters characterized by GZMB and CCL5 expression. These results demonstrate the involvement of tumor reactive CD4+ T cells with cytotoxic function in immune surveillance of endometrial cancer and reveal their transcriptomic signature.

• Establishment and Genomic Validation of Novel Patient-Derived Xenograft Models for Drug Discovery in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor

  This dataset contains targeted next-generation sequencing data generated with the Illumina TruSight Oncology 500 (TSO500) assay from six gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) and matched patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models established at Fox Chase Cancer Center (Philadelphia, PA). GIST are most commonly driven by activating mutations in KIT or PDGFRA, and this study focused on KIT-mutant tumors. All PDXs were derived from metastatic patient tumors previously treated with one or more tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). PDXs were maintained through series of passages and represents in vivo models of differential TKI sensitivity. The dataset represents a detailed comparison of mutational profiles between primary tumors and corresponding PDXs across passages, enabling studies of genomic stability, resistance mechanisms, and the evaluation of novel therapeutic strategies in GIST.

• Convergent evolution towards CD38 biallelic loss is a recurrent mechanism of resistance to anti-CD38 antibodies in multiple myeloma.

  Monoclonal antibodies directed against CD38 are a therapeutic mainstay in multiple myeloma (MM). While they have contributed to improved outcomes, most patients will still experience disease relapse. Despite their ubiquity, little is known about tumor-intrinsic mechanisms of resistance to these drugs. Antigen escape, whereby tumor cells alter expression of cell surface immunotherapy targets, has been proposed as a potential avenue, and has been seen with other immunotherapies in MM. Yet, it is unknown whether MM cells can develop permanent resistance to anti-CD38 antibodies by acquiring genomic events leading to biallelic disruption of the CD38 gene locus. Here, by using whole genome and whole exome sequencing data from 701 newly diagnosed patients, 72 patients at relapse with naivety to anti-CD38 antibodies, and 52 patients collected at relapse following anti-CD38 antibodies, we report biallelic inactivation of CD38 as a recurrent mechanism of resistance in 6% of patients, often via convergent evolution where distinct subclones are advantaged towards the same selective endpoint within the same patient. Monoallelic loss of the CD38 locus was seen in another 14% post-CD38-directed therapy. Three of the cases with biallelic events on CD38 presented with missense mutations and retained CD38 expression. Functional work demonstrated that two of these mutations decreased binding affinity and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity of commercial antibodies Daratumumab and Isatuximab. However, the third mutation (R140G) provided relative resistance only towards one commercial product. Given that patients are often rechallenged with CD38 antibodies following disease progression, these data support the need for next generation sequencing to guide treatment selection.

• The Oral Mycobiome and Risk of Pancreatic Cancer

  The purpose of our study was to assess the influence of oral microbiota on the development of pancreatic cancer. Our preliminary case-control studies showed that oral carriage of a periodontal pathogen is related to increased risk for pancreatic cancer. We hypothesize that the oral bacteria and fungi are associated with risk of pancreatic cancer. We conducted a prospective study nested in two large well-established U.S. cohorts to determine whether the oral bacterial and fungal microbiome is associated with subsequent risk of pancreatic cancer.

• German early-onset prostate cancer cohort of the Pan-Prostate Cancer Genome (PPCG) project

  Prostate cancer is the most frequent malignant tumor in males and the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death. Currently, in Germany, more than 60,000 prostate cancers are diagnosed every year. Although most of these patients are treated in a curative attempt, more than 10,000 German men die from prostate cancer annually. Owing to the demographic changes of our society, a further doubling of prostate cancer incidences during the next 20 years is expected. Prostate cancer is generally considered a tumor of elderly men. However, a fraction of prostate cancers are diagnosed at the age of 55 years or less. For several reasons, these “early onset prostate cancers” may represent a key entity for the understanding of prostate cancer biology. First, it is likely that early onset prostate cancers represent a distinct molecular subgroup of prostate cancer (PCa), potentially characterized by relatively small numbers of genetic changes, some of which may be particularly strong driver mutations for PCa development. Second, a fraction of prostate cancers in young individuals could represent classical prostate cancers that are detected at a very early stage and might therefore have accumulated molecular changes/mutations occurring that are most instrumental for prostate cancer early detection. Third, PCa with hereditary backgrounds are likely to accumulate in the age group below 55 years. A comparison with other sample sets (e.g. from other ICGC consortia), a systematic genomic analysis of young men with PCa could therefore lead to the detection of mechanisms for hereditary PCa. Fourth, a better understanding of these tumors is particularly relevant as finding optimal treatment regimens is most critical in young cancer patients. We are analyzing the entire genomic DNA sequences of at least 200 PCas (and matched non-tumorous DNA) of young men (≤ 55y), to at least 30 fold coverage, and integrate single-nucleotide variants and genomic structural variations with differential methylation, mRNA and miRNA expression data.Tissues were collected at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf. Sequencing was performed at DKFZ and NCT (Heidelberg), EMBL (Heidelberg), and MPIMG (Berlin). Data management and bioinformatic data analyses is being conducted at DKFZ.

• Multiomic Landscape of Multiple Myeloma Precursor and Relapsed Disease

  Multiple myeloma (MM) is a treatable, though incurable, plasma cell malignancy. The molecular mechanisms driving disease onset and the emergence of drug resistance remain elusive. To better characterize the mutational, transcriptional, and epigenetic alterations that accompany MM disease evolution, we accessed molecular data from MM patients treated at Moffitt Cancer Center, with bone marrow biopsies collected between 2011 and 2023.We performed scMultiome (single-cell, paired RNA/ATAC-Seq, 10x Genomics) on 18 CD138+-selected bone marrow aspirate samples, including: 2 healthy donors, 3 patients with monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), 4 with smoldering myeloma (SMM), 3 with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM), 1 with early relapse MM (ERMM, 1 to 3 lines of therapy), and 5 with late relapse MM (LRMM, 4 or more lines of therapy). Our dataset includes a sequential sample: a patient with a premalignant condition ("scMultiome_SMM_4") that progressed to active myeloma ("scMultiome_NDMM_3"). These data allow for the assessment of transcriptional and epigenetic dysregulation at the cellular level. Our findings illustrate the dynamic epigenetic and transcriptional landscapes that accompany MM disease progression.We also conducted CUT&Tag analysis on 4 NDMM and 4 LRMM samples to map histone modifications, specifically H3K27ac, to investigate their role in transcriptional reprogramming observed in advanced stages of MM. This analysis revealed sample heterogeneity in terms of super-enhancer-regulated genes associated with active transcription.This cohort also includes samples from the clinical trial NCT04151667, “Daratumumab-Based Response-Adaptive Therapy for Older Adults With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma.” We performed scRNAseq (single-cell RNA sequencing, 10x Genomics) on 30 CD138+-selected bone marrow aspirate samples and 31 pre-sort samples featuring bone marrow mononuclear cells of various cell types from 5 healthy donors and 11 patients with newly diagnosed MM (NDMM). Our dataset includes sequential samples for all 11 NDMM patients, both prior to induction therapy (denoted by ‘a') with Daratumumab and Dexamethasone, and at cycle 2 day 22 (C2D22, i.e., 60 days after induction therapy start, denoted by ‘b'). For three NDMM patients, we also have samples at relapse (denoted by ‘c'). These data allow for the assessment of transcriptional dysregulation at the single-cell level in both the tumor and immune-tumor microenvironment, associated with Daratumumab treatment in NDMM patients.In addition to the molecular data, demographic, and phenotypic information for all samples is provided.
