• Intrapatient tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution in metastatic salivary gland cancer: an autopsy study: access to data

  Funded by the Radboud Oncology Fund and the Dr. C.J. Vaillant Fund, the Salivary Gland Cancer Autopsy research group (Research Group) has sequenced DNA of 17 salivary gland cancer samples of and three healthy control samples from three patients with salivary gland cancer. This research project is led by Carla M.L. van Herpen from Radboud University Medical Centre in Nijmegen, the Netherlands (“Radboudumc”). The DNA sequencing data have been used for an analysis of intrapatient tumor heterogeneity and clonal evolution of metastatic salivary gland cancer. The Research Group is willing to consider applications from third party researchers for access to the DNA sequence data. Access to the data will be granted to qualified researchers for approved use. Access to DNA Sequencing Data is available by application to the Data Access Committee (DAC). Researchers granted access to DNA Sequencing Data must feedback the results of their research to the Research Group, after publication in accordance with the Research Group publication policy set forth in the Data Access Agreement.

• Circulating tumour DNA abundance and potential utility in de novo metastatic prostate cancer

  Several systemic therapeutic options exist for metastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). Circulating tumour DNA can profile metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer and influence treatment decisions, but remains untested in mCSPC. We set out to determine ctDNA abundance at de novo mCSPC diagnosis and whether ctDNA provides complementary clinically relevant information to a prostate biopsy. We collected and sequenced 77 plasma cell-free DNA samples from 53 newly diagnosed patients with mCSPC. Targeted sequencing was also performed on DNA from 48 diagnostic prostate tissue samples.

• Anaplastic_Meningioma_WGS_X10

  Anaplastic meningiomas are a rare, malignant variant of meningioma. At present there is no effective treatment for this cancer. The aim of the study is to identify somatic mutations in anaplastic meningiomas. We plan to sequence a set of 500 known cancer genes in 50 anaplastic meningioma and corresponding peripheral blood DNA samples. Bioinformatics will be used to analyse the results to assess the probability of these mutations being causal and so likely of critical importance for the tumour growth. Identification of these mutations will guide selection of appropriate compounds to effectively treat the disease.

• Non-small cell lung cancer proteome subtypes expose targetable oncogenic drivers and immune evasion mechanisms

  Proteome-level data of non-small cell lung cancer remains limited. In this study, we have collected 141 cases, and performed histological review, methylation profiling (113), custom panel sequencing (140), microarray expression profiling (118) and mass-spectrometry based proteomics (141). We identified six distinct groups of patients driven by histology, growth pattern, immune cell infiltration, druggable driver mutations, and hypomethylation-associated neoantigen burden. We validated the subtypes in independent proteomics datasets. Proteomics can refine treatment-oriented subtyping of non-small cell lung cancer.

• MutWP5__CRUK_Mutographs_of_Cancer__Breast__Cancer_Mastectomy__WG_

  Sequencing of LCM-derived microbiopsies from 40 women who underwent mastectomies due to breast cancer. LCM and sequencing will be conducted on both normal, unaffected breast, and, where possible, tumour tissue. Goal to assess the mutational burden, spectrum, and clonal dynamics within the tissue, and compare findings between the normal and associated cancer tissues. Whole-genome sequencing will be conducted on samples identified as promising from the initial targeted data. Results from this portion of the study will be compared to women who had cosmetic breast reduction surgeries and those who are BRCA carriers.

• The ALT pathway generates telomere fusions that can be detected in the blood of cancer patients

  Telomere fusions (TFs) can trigger the accumulation of oncogenic alterations leading to malignant transformation and drug resistance. Despite their relevance in tumour evolution, our understanding of the patterns and consequences of TFs in human cancers remains limited. Here, we characterize the rates and spectrum of somatic TFs across >30 cancer types using whole-genome sequencing data. TFs are pervasive in human tumours with rates varying markedly across and within cancer types. In addition to end-to-end fusions, we find novel patterns of TFs that we mechanistically link to the activity of the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) pathway. We show that TFs can be detected in the blood of cancer patients, which enables cancer detection with high specificity and sensitivity even for early-stage tumours and cancers of high unmet clinical need. Overall, we report a novel genomic footprint that enables characterization of the telomere maintenance mechanism of tumours and liquid biopsy analysis.

• Integrative Analysis of Lung Adenocarcinoma in Never Smokers

  We performed whole genome sequencing of lung cancers from never smoker subjects from Institut universitaire de cardiologie et de pneumologie de Québec - Université Laval (IUCPQ-UL) (N=125), Université Côte d'Azur (Nice) (N=47), the Environment And Genetics in Lung cancer Etiology (EAGLE) study (N=27), Yale University (N=22), and Moffitt Cancer Cente (N=11).

• Phylogenetic analysis of combined lobular and ductal carcinoma of the breast

  Breast cancer manifests in diverse forms, with particular reference to various cell types harboring different mutations and gene expression profiles. To elucidate the clonal relationship between cancer cells in tumors composed of both ductal and lobular phenotypes, we analyzed two combined lobular and ductal carcinoma (CLDC) cases, including one mixed ductal-lobular carcinoma (MDL) lesion, by next generation sequencing.

• Somatic_mutation_in_skin_epidermis__SMS_

  We aim to assess the range and depth of mutations in genes linked with cancer in skin epidermis surrounding lesions which are undergoing surgical removal. Patient history will be collected to provide a detailed outline of tumour type (including histology), skin type, and sunlight exposure. We will perform ultra-deep targeted sequencing using genes implicated in cancer to try and understand the background of mutations surrounding these lesions
