• High clinical utility of comprehensive multi-omic molecular profiling of rare and hard-to-diagnose pediatric tumors

  The role of comprehensive genomic profiling for therapeutic decision-making is established in high-risk pediatric cancers, but its utility in rare and diagnostically challenging tumors is unclear. Here we report 123 non-high-risk patients enrolled in the Australian ZERO Childhood Cancer Program for diagnostic uncertainty, clinician request to address a specific molecular query, or other rare tumors. Comprehensive multi-omic profiling led to a change in diagnosis in 17.9% (22/123) of patients, with overall diagnostic utility in 35% (43/123). Molecular queries were resolved in 97.6% (40/41). Multi-omic results informed conventional management in 20.3% (25/123). Precision-guided therapy was recommended in 67.5% (83/123), and administered in 36.1% (30/83), with an objective response or prolonged (>6 months) stable disease in 88.9% of evaluable cases (16/18). Findings were confirmed in an independent cohort from the Canadian KiCS program (n=41). In conclusion, in rare and diagnostically challenging pediatric tumors, multi-omic profiling improved diagnostic accuracy and informed clinical management, supporting its integration into routine care.

• Asan Medical Center Data Access Committee

  This Data Access Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving data access requests for human genomic and clinical datasets deposited at the EGA by Asan Medical Center, in order to protect the sensitive information of patients. The committee oversees a range of data types, including sequencing, variant profiling, and transcriptomic data across multiple cancer types and research projects. Data access requests require an approved ethical research plan and are limited to legitimate biomedical research use in accordance with the terms of the associated Data Access Agreement.

• Plasma CTCF ChIP-seq Reveals Cancer-Associated cfDNA Binding Profiles

  Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in plasma predominantly exists as nucleoprotein complexes. Although circulating CTCF-bound cfDNA (cfCTCF-DNA) has previously been reported, the occupancy of individual CTCF binding sites in plasma has not been systematically characterised. This study describes the isolation of endogenous plasma cfCTCF-DNA by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by next-generation sequencing (ChIP-seq) in samples obtained from cancer patients and healthy individuals. A two-step enrichment strategy was employed, combining physical removal of background cfDNA by immunoprecipitation with bioinformatic filtering to remove residual non-CTCF-derived sequences. Sequencing reads were aligned to the UCSC hg38 reference genome using BWA-MEM v0.7.17 and processed to generate CRAM files containing alignments restricted to the primary chromosomes (chr1–chr22, chrX, chrY and chrM). CTCF-associated cfDNA fragments were classified according to their similarity to a consensus CTCF binding motif, enabling discrimination between low-affinity and high-affinity CTCF binding sites. Comparative analyses identified quantitative and qualitative differences in plasma cfCTCF-DNA profiles between healthy individuals and patients with cancer. The deposited dataset comprises plasma cfCTCF-DNA ChIP-seq data from four clinical cohorts and includes both CTCF-enriched and total cfDNA samples where applicable. These data support the investigation of CTCF occupancy patterns as a novel class of liquid biopsy biomarkers for cancer detection and monitoring.

• Measurement of altered CTCF binding in cancer using ChIP-seq

  Sequencing data for the paper: Direct analysis of transcription factor protected cfDNA in plasma by ChIP-seq: Measurement of altered CTCF binding in cancer is a novel biomarker for liquid biopsy. This dataset contains 160 CRAM files containing Illumina NovaSeq reads aligned using BWA to the UCSC hg38 reference. These 160 samples belong to four experiments - a 70 sample development cohort, a 24 sample validation cohort, a second 58 sample validation cohort and eight samples from an enrichment recovery experiment, consisting of a CTCF and a Total sample from each of four cancer patients.

• Dataset of scRNAseq from 56 CRC, treatment-naive and post-chemotherapy

  The dataset includes FASTQ source files of scRNA-seq for 56 CRC patients, sequenced with Illumina 10x platform. All patients were diagnosed with colorectal cancer between 2014 and 2022 at the Gustave Roussy Institute. Cohort includes 32 samples from untreated patients and 24 samples from patients who received chemotherapy. Chemotherapy included FOLFOX or FOLFIRI as first line, in some cases in combination with anti-VEGF or anti-EGRF drugs (avastin, bevacizumab or cetuximab) as the second and third lines. The post-treatment cohort included 18 responders (partial response, stable disease and complete response) and 6 progressors (progressive disease).

• Multi-omic signatures in multiple myeloma

  Multiple myeloma (MM) is a genetically and clinically heterogeneous plasma-cell malignancy. Quadruplet therapy, combining anti-CD38 antibodies, immunomodulatory drugs, proteasome inhibitors, and dexamethasone, is now the standard induction treatment for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). To gain a comprehensive view of molecular changes in MM and their association with treatment response in this new standard care, we performed a multi-omic study of 423 NDMM from the MIDAS trial.
