• Genomic and Transcriptomic Profiling of Patients with Malignant Pleural and Peritoneal Mesothelioma: The NCI Cohort

  Malignant mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. Better understanding of mesothelioma genomics and transcriptomics could advance novel therapies. We performed whole-exome sequencing (WXS) of germline and tumors of 122 patients, and RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) of tumor samples of 100 patients with pleural, peritoneal, and tunica-vaginalis mesothelioma.The biospecimens used in this study were collected as a part of the Mesothelioma Natural History Protocol (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01950572), wherein, samples were collected from subjects with malignant mesothelioma as listed in the eligibility criteria below and written consent from each participant was obtained before sample acquisition.

• Expressed Pseudogenes in the Transcriptional Landscape of Human Cancers

  In this study, we describe a systematic analysis of pseudogene 'transcription' from an RNA-Seq resource of 293 samples, from 13 cancer and normal tissue types. We observed a highly prevalent, genome-wide expression of pseudogenes that could be categorized as universally expressed or lineage- and/or cancer-specific. We also explored disease subtype specificity and functions of selected expressed pseudogenes. We provide evidence that transcribed pseudogenes are a significant contributor to the transcriptional landscape of cells and are positioned to play significant roles in cellular differentiation and cancer progression. Our work provides a transcriptome resource that enables high-throughput analyses of pseudogene expression.

• Clinical Cancer Genomic Profiling by Three-Platform Sequencing of Whole Genome, Whole Exome and Transcriptome

  To evaluate the potential of an integrated clinical test to detect diverse classes of somatic and germline mutations relevant to pediatric oncology, we performed three-platform whole-genome (WGS), whole exome (WES) and transcriptome (RNA-Seq) sequencing of tumors and normal tissue from 78 pediatric cancer patients in a CLIA-certified, CAP-accredited laboratory. Our analysis pipeline achieves high accuracy by cross-validating variants between sequencing types, thereby removing the need for confirmatory testing, and facilitates comprehensive reporting in a clinically-relevant timeframe. Three-platform sequencing has a positive predictive value of 97-99%, 99% and 91% for somatic SNVs, indels and structural variations, respectively, based on independent experimental verification of 15,225 variants. We report 240 pathogenic variants across all cases, including 84 of 86 known from previous diagnostic testing (98% sensitivity). Combined WES and RNA-Seq, the current standard for precision oncology, achieved only 78% sensitivity. These results emphasize the critical need for incorporating WGS in pediatric oncology testing.

• Resistance studies in Lung Cancer

  The purpose of the study was to compare gene expression profiles from a cohort of crizotinib-resistant ALK-rearranged lung tumors and a cohort of treatment-naive ALK-rearranged lung tumors. Expression profiles were generated by RNA-seq. In parallel, gene expression profiles were obtained from ALK-rearranged lung cancer cell lines in the presence or absence of the ALK inhibitor TAE684. Gene expression profiles were also obtained from ALK-rearranged cells ectopically expressing genes associated with ALK inhibitor resistance that were identified from a functional genetic study.

• Comprehensive peripheral blood immunoprofiling reveals five immunotypes with immunotherapy response characteristics in cancer patients

  The lack of comprehensive diagnostics and consensus analytical models for evaluating the status of a patient’s immune system has hindered a wider adoption of immunoprofiling for treatment monitoring and response prediction in cancer patients. To address this unmet need, we developed an immunoprofiling platform that uses multiparameter flow cytometry and RNA-seq to characterize immune cell heterogeneity in the peripheral blood of healthy donors and patients with advanced cancers. Using unsupervised clustering, we identified five immunotypes with unique distributions of different cell types, and gene expression profiles.

• Gene signature for predicting homologous recombination deficiency in triple-negative breast cancer

  We developed a gene expression-based classifier for homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) in breast cancer patients using WES and RNA-seq data obtained from 94 TNBC samples from a Malaysian hospital-based cohort (MyBrCa). This classifier was able to predict for high levels of a mutational signature associated with HRD in an additional MyBrCa TNBC validation cohort (this EGA study) as well as in TNBCs from TCGA. We also validated the classifier on a NanoString platform with both fresh frozen and FFPE tissue.

• The UC San Diego Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) Study

  The UC San Diego Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia Study is designed to identify genetic, epigenetic, and transcriptional changes important for CLL. This data release consists of samples collected to 1) identify genomic changes associated with CLL progression using serially collected tumor samples; 2) characterize the transcriptional consequences of SF3B1 mutation through RNA-seq; and 3) characterize the expression profiles of ROR1+ vs. ROR1- tumors. The samples were collected from participants at the University of California, San Diego Moores Cancer Center and the data was generated at UC San Diego or in collaboration with the BC Cancer Agency Genome Sciences Centre.

• Single Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of Cellular Heterogeneity in Human Colorectal Tumours

  1,591 single cells from 11 colorectal cancer patients were profiled using Fluidigm based single cell RNA-seq protocol to characterized cellular heterogeneity of colorectal cancer. 630 single cells from 7 cell lines were profiled similarly to benchmark de novo cell type identification algorithms.
