• Novel driver variants in the histone 3.3 genes, H3F3A and H3F3B, define bone and cartilage cancer sub-types

  A selection of human cancers harbours somatic driver mutations in genes encoding histones, most notably childhood brain tumours with K27M substitutions of the histone 3.3 gene, H3F3A. We performed whole genome sequencing of the benign cartilage tumour, chondroblastoma, and targeted sequencing of histone 3.3 genes, H3F3A and H3F3B, in seven further skeletal tumour types. We identified an exceptionally high prevalence of novel histone 3.3 driver mutations at glycine 34 and at lysine 36. Histone 3.3 gene mutations were found in 91% in giant cell tumours of bone (48/53), mainly H3F3A G34W variants, and in 92% of chondroblastoma (73/79), predominantly K36M mutations in H3F3B. H3F3B is paralogous to the cancer gene H3F3A. However, H3F3B driver variants have not previously been reported in human cancer. Our observation demonstrate remarkable tumour-specificity of mutations, with respect to which histone 3.3 gene and residue is mutated, indicating that the advantage these mutations confer is tumour dependent. Moreover, tumour-specific mutation of H3F3A and H3F3B suggests, that although both genes encode identical proteins, they are likely non-redundant and employed differentially during skeletal development.

• Signatures of mismatch repair deficiency in cancer genomes

  DNA replication errors occurring in mismatch repair (MMR) deficient cells persist as mismatch mutations and predispose to a range of tumors. Here, we sequenced the first whole-genomes from MMR-deficient endometrial tumors.

• Subclonal diversification of primary breast cancer

  Cancers are ecosystems of genetically related clones, competing across space and time for limited resources. To understand the clonal structure of primary breast cancer, we applied genome and targeted sequencing to 295 samples from 49 patients’ tumors. The extent of subclonal diversification varied considerably among patients and encompassed many spatial patterns, including local growth, intraductal dissemination and clonal intermixture. Landmarks of disease progression, such as acquiring invasive or metastatic potential, arose within detectable subclones of antecedent lesions, suggesting that subclonal mutations could be relevant if actionable. No defined temporal order of mutation was evident, with the commonest genes, including PIK3CA, TP53, BRCA2, PTEN and MYC, mutated early in some, late in others, often exhibiting parallel evolution across subclones. Signatures of homologous recombination deficiency correlated with response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Thus, the interplay of mutation, growth and competition drives clonal structures of breast cancer that are complex, variable across patients and clinically relevant.

• ICGC Prostate Cancer Whole Genome Sequencing

  To characterize the subclonal genomic architecture of androgen-deprived metastatic prostate cancer, we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 51 tumours from 10 patients to an average sequencing depth of 55x, including multiple metastases from different anatomic sites in each patient and, in five cases, the prostate tumour. Noncancerous DNA from blood or other tissue is used as reference comparison for each patient. The patients are part of PELICAN (Project to ELIminate Lethal Cancer) rapid autopsy study led by G. Steven Bova at Johns Hopkins University (USA) and Tampere University (Finland). As of September 2020, some of the studies using these data include: Gundem et al, Nature 2015 (PMID: 25830880).

• Exome sequencing of patients with Ewings sarcoma

  Cancer is driven by mutations in the genome. We will uncover the mutations that give rise to Ewing's sarcoma, a bone tumour that largely affects children. We will use second generation Illumina massively parallel sequencing, and bespoke software, to characterise the genomes and transcriptomes of Ewing,s sarcoma tumours.

• Somatic mutations, clonal architecture and genomic evolution in multiple myeloma

  Multiple myeloma is an incurable plasma cell malignancy whose molecular pathogenesis is incompletely understood. We used whole exome sequencing, copy number profiling and cytogenetic to analyses 84 samples from 67 patients with myeloma. In addition to known myeloma genes, we identify new candidate genes, including truncations of SP140, ROBO1 and FAT3 and clustered missense mutations in EGR1. We find oncogenic mutations in cancer genes not previously implicated in myeloma, including SF3B1, PI3KCA and PTEN. We define diverse processes contributing to the mutational repertoire, including kataegis and somatic hypermutation. Most cases have at least one cluster of subclonal variants, including subclonal driver mutations, implying on-going tumor evolution. Serial samples revealed diverse patterns of clonal evolution, including linear evolution, differential clonal response and branching evolution. Our findings reveal the myeloma genome to be heterogeneous across patients and, within individual patients, to exhibit diversity in clonal admixture and dynamics in response to therapy.

• A common single nucleotide variant in T is strongly associated with chordoma

  Chordoma is a rare malignant bone tumor that expresses the transcription factor T. We conducted an association study of 40 patients with chordoma and 358 ancestry-matched, unaffected individuals with replication in an independent cohort. Whole-exome and Sanger sequencing of T exons reveals a strong risk association ( allelic odds ratio (OR) = 4.9, P = 3.3x10-11, CI= 2.9-8.1) with the common (minor allelic frequency >5%) non-synonymous SNP rs2305089 in chordoma, which is exceptional in cancer genetics.

• Genetic mechanisms of resistance to chemotherapy in breast cancer

  Resistance towards chemotherapy is one of the main causes of treatment failure and deathamong breast cancer patients.The main objective of this project is toidentify genetic mechanisms causing some breast cancer patients not torespond to a particluar type of chemotherapy (epirubicin) while otherpatients respond very well to the same treatment. In the project wewill perform genome / exome sequencing of a selection of breast cancerpatients (n=30). These patients are drawn from a cohort where allpatients have recieved treatment with epirubicin monotherapy before surgical removal of alocally advanced breast tumour, and where all patients have beensubjected to objective evaluation of the response to thetherapy. Subsequent to sequencing, we will analyse the data andcompare with the clinical data for each patient (object response totherapy). The main aim being to identify mutations that are associatedwith resistance to epirubicin. Identification of mutations with strongpredictive value, may have a direct impact on cancer treatment sinceit opens the possibility for genetic testing of a tumour, and desicionon which drug is likely to work best, prior to treatment start.
