• GILD-ExomeSeq-PTNHL

  This study is meant to gain further knowledge in haematological cancers. Patients samples (mainly DNAs or PCR products) from haematolocical cancer patients will be sequenced, and the outputs will be correlated to their diagnosis and/or prognosis; the findings may also add more insight into the understanding of biology in this type of tumour. We will be sequencing Primary Testicular Lymphomas (PTL) to identify genetic drivers of this rare cancer

• Exome sequencing data from tumor progression cohort

  This dataset, named Stockholm tumor progression cohort, contains exome-sequencing samples of matched primary and metastasis samples from 20 metastatic breast cancer patients. All patients have one or more sequenced normal samples as well. The total number of samples is 125. The dataset has been used, apart from other studies, to explore tumor evolution patterns in metastatic breast cancer at Karolinska Institute Stockholm.

• PLCRC study

  Genomic libraries (500 bps) will be generated from total genomic DNA derived from Colorectal cancer patients and subjected to short paired end sequencing on the llumina platform. Paired reads will be mapped to build 37 of the human reference genome to facilitate the generation of genome wide copy number information, and the identification of novel rearranged cancer genes and gene fusions.

• Colorectal cancer WES/WGS analysis in Dr. Liu’s group in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center

  The samples include paired tumor and normal tissues from 205 patients (201 for normal and primary tumor tissues; 4 for normal, primary tumor and liver metastatic tissues). High-coverage WES sequencing or whole genome sequencing of DNA samples were performed on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 system

• Whole-exome sequencing of liver cancer organoids

  Whole-exome sequencing was performed from organoids derived from 10 liver cancer biopsies (7 hepatocellular carcinoma and 3 cholangiocarcinoma), corresponding liver and non-tumoral biopsies. For 3 of the organoids, both early and late passage organoids were sequenced. Whole-exome sequencing was performed using the Agilent Clinical Research Exome capture kit followed by Illumina sequencing. BAM files are provided in this dataset.

• Dataset Gene-Breakpoint Panel

  In this study we analysed patients with metastatic prostate cancer to scan their tumor genomes noninvasively in plasma DNA. We enriched 1.3 Mbp of seven plasma DNAs (4 CRPC cases: CRPC1-3 and CRPC5; 3 CSPC cases: CSPC1-2 and CSPC4) including exonic sequences of 55 cancer genes and 38 introns of 18 genes, where fusion breakpoints have been described using Sure Select Custom DNA Kit.

• How upcycled prostate cancer sequences enabled key findings on telomeres length

  The length of telomeres, the chromosomes’ end tails, as depicted in the figure below, physiologically shorten with aging. This means that younger cells have longer telomeres compared to their aged counterparts; one could say that the length of cells’ telomeres is a measure of their replicative power. Cancer cells are known to be able to turn this into their favour, and expand their replicative immortality through telomere lengthening and maintenance. Despite being a well-studied pan-cancer hallmark, the relation of the telomeres length to specific cancer genomic features is poorly understood. Julia Livingstone and her colleagues from P.C. Boutros' team in Los Angeles focused their work on prostate cancer. To investigate the relations between telomere length and the clinico-genomics of prostate tumours, they used whole genome sequencing (WGS) of 392 published tumour–reference pairs previously deposited at the EGA under accession numbers EGAS00001000400 and EGAS00001000900. Their work was published on Nature Communications in November 2021. They determined the telomere length of the sequencing sample, from both tumour and non-tumour adjacent tissues, and subsequently ran statistical analysis to investigate possible correlation between the telomeres length with several cancer features. The team discovered that telomeres length does not correlate with any specific driver gene mutation, but it does with the overall frequency of single nucleotides variants in a sample. This finding suggests that tumours with shorter telomeres accumulate more mutations without strong selective pressures for specific ones. While proliferation rate did not correlate directly with telomere length, methylation of almost half of all genes strongly did. The team’s results are massive and reveal a complicated and fascinating relation of different clinical and genomic features of prostate cancer with telomere length. In the paper discussion, they smartly consider different possibilities. As noted above, all these amazing results have been obtained analysing previously sequenced samples. Remarkably, the researchers who generated the samples did not focus at all on telomeres length. They indeed studied specific genes mutations and the features of early and late-onset prostate cancer. This proves, once again, the power of sequencing data re-use. This data is tremendously rich in information, and can hardly be exhausted with any number of analyses. Generating sequencing data, especially Whole Genome Sequencing, even better if tumor-reference paired, is like shopping every last article at the grocery store. You can then cook several recipes, or prepare a seven-course dinner, and still have ingredients left for someone else to borrow and cook something you have not thought about, a recipe that is just not in your cookbook. Noteworthy, the data retrieved from the EGA for this paper is associated with rich and complete metadata, meaning pheno-clinical information regarding the sample donors. As Julia Livingstone and her team wrote, using rich clinical annotations enabled them to assess the relationship between telomere length and patients outcome. This highlights once again the importance of reporting and annotating metadata correctly; It might feel like extra work for the researchers depositing their data, but it really has a huge value. Our team at the EGA is currently working to improve the metadata annotation process, with the aim to maximize the benefits for the scientific community.
