• Machine learning to detect the SINEs of cancer

  We previously described an approach called RealSeqS to evaluate aneuploidy in plasma cell-free DNA (cfDNA) through the amplification of ~350,000 repeated elements with a single primer. We hypothesized that an unbiased evaluation of the large amount of sequencing data obtained with RealSeqS might reveal other differences between plasma samples from patients with and without cancer. This hypothesis was tested through the development of a novel machine-learning approach called Alu Profile Learning Using Sequencing (A-PLUS) and its application to samples from 5108 individuals, 2037 with cancer and the remainder without cancer. Samples from cancer patients and controls were pre-specified into four cohorts used for: 1) model training, 2) analyte integration and threshold determination, 3) validation, and 4) reproducibility. A-PLUS alone provided a sensitivity of 40.5% across 11 different cancer types in the Validation Cohort, at a specificity of 98.5%. Combining A-PLUS with aneuploidy and 8 common protein biomarkers detected 51% of 1167 cancers at 98.9% specificity. We found that part of the power of A-PLUS could be ascribed to a single feature – the global reduction of AluS sub-family elements in the circulating DNA of cancer patients. We confirmed this reduction through the analysis of another independent dataset obtained with a very different approach (whole genome sequencing). The evaluation of Alu elements therefore has the potential to enhance the performance of several methods designed for the earlier detection of cancer.

• Transcriptome of memory B cells with autoproliferation in MS

  Transcriptional profile of resting/hi and autoproliferating/Dim memory B cells in Multiple sclerosis patients. In brief, non-proliferating (CFSEhi) and AP+ (CFSEdim) CD19+ CD27+ B cells from PBMCs of 5 natalizumab-treated female RRMS (NAT) patients were sorted following 7 days of autoproliferation. Transcriptome libraries were constructed from the same samples, except for one sample pair, which was excluded due to limited input material (5 donors as for Methylome, D1; D2, D3, D5, D6; samples from donor D4 unfortunately technically failed). SMARTer Total Stranded RNA-seq library construction with ribosomal depletion was performed and then sequenced on NovaSeq S4 lane.

• Capture-based Methods for Transcriptomic Profiling of FFPE material

  This dataset includes all FASTQ files for 11 samples where different capture-based methods for transcriptome profiling have been tested. Specifically, we have the 'traditional' RNA-seq experiment with fresh frozen (FF) material, and 3 different capture methods for the matching formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples: Agilent (AGI), IDT, and Twist Biosciences (TBS). In total, there are 43 samples with paired-end FASTQ files (1 sample did not have sufficient material to test all methods). Samples are identified by the R01-R11 IDs with a suffix that indicates the capture method used (or FF for fresh frozen).

• NCI Cancer Model Development for the Human Cancer Model Initiative (HCMI)

  The Cancer Model Development Center (CMDC) project is part of the Human Cancer Model Initiative (HCMI) and is managed by the Office of Cancer Genomics within the Center for Cancer Genomics at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). The goal of the HCMI is to generate approximately 1000 novel human "next generation" tumor-derived models as a community resource. The models aim to faithfully recapitulate the cellular complexity and heterogeneity of human tumors. The CMDCs are tasked by the NCI with producing a proportion of the cancer models. Wellcome Sanger Institute (WSI) is a contributing member of the HCMI. Models developed by HCMI are being derived from a number of tumor types and subtypes (see below), including rare adult, pediatric and understudied cancers. The number of models and the clinical sites from which patient samples are acquired is increasing. Normal tissue, originating tumor, and tumor-derived models are sequenced. The next generation cancer models are associated with rich clinical and genomic data through the NCI Genomic Data Commons for all researchers to advance cancer research. The CMDC and HCMI models will serve as excellent tools in research to provide insight into the pathways that influence tumor growth and progression, how tumors respond to therapy, etc. Ultimately, the data generated using these models will support the development of personalized oncology. There is a delay between registered IDs and model availability. The current model count is found in The HCMI Searchable Catalog which is updated when new models are available for distribution to the research community.

• Improved Detection and Identification of Microsatellite Instability Features in Colorectal Cancer

  In this study, we analyzed a series of colorectal cancers using a new sequencing technology that sequences more than 200 microsatellite regions in parallel. With this technology, we evaluated mono-, di- , tri- and tetranucleotide repeats to provide a broad spectrum of microsatellite instability (MSI) events. This deep sequencing technology provides greater than 2000X coverage and eliminates the need for PCR amplification. Because every read corresponds to a single DNA molecule, we eliminated artifacts introduced by PCR that obscured true MSI events. Also included in our analysis is a new method for detection of somatic copy number changes in 83 cancer genes, with which we can infer chromosomal instability (CIN) status.

• The evolutionary history of human colitis-associated colorectal cancer

  Inflammatory bowel disease confers an increased lifetime risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC), and colitis-associated CRC (CA-CRC) is molecularly distinct from sporadic CRC (S-CRC). Here we have dissected the evolutionary history of CA-CRC using multi-region sequencing. Exome sequencing was performed on fresh-frozen multiple regions of carcinoma, adjacent non-cancerous mucosa and blood from 12 CA-CRC patients (n=55 exomes), and key variants were validated with orthogonal methods. Genome-wide copy number profiling was performed using SNP arrays and low-pass whole genome sequencing on archival non-dysplastic mucosa (n=9), low-grade dysplasia (LGD, n=30), high-grade dysplasia (HGD, n=13), mixed LGD/HGD (n=7) and CA-CRC (n=19). Phylogenetic trees were reconstructed, and evolutionary analysis used to reveal the temporal sequence of events leading to CA-CRC. 10/12 tumors were microsatellite stable with a median mutation burden of 3.0 single nucleotide alterations (SNAs) per Mb, around 20% higher than S-CRC (2.5 SNAs/Mb), and consistent with elevated aging-associated mutational processes. Non-dysplastic mucosa had considerable mutation burden (median 47 SNAs), including mutations shared with the neighboring CA-CRC, indicating a pre-cancer mutational field. CA-CRCs were often near-triploid (42%) or near-tetraploid (21%) and phylogenetic analysis revealed that copy number alterations (CNAs) began to accrue in non-dysplastic bowel, but the LGD/HGD transition often involved a punctuated catastrophic CNA increase.

• Comprehensive genomic and transcriptomic analysis of three synchronous primary tumours and a recurrence from a head and neck cancer patient

  Synchronous primary malignancies occur in a small proportion of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients. Here, we analysed three synchronous primaries and a recurrence from one patient, by comparing the genomic and transcriptomic profiles among the tumour samples and determining the recurrence origin. We found remarkable levels of heterogeneity among the primary tumours, and through the patterns of shared mutations, we traced the origin of the recurrence. Interestingly, the patient carried germline variants which might have predisposed him to carcinogenesis, together with a history of alcohol and tobacco consumption. Mutational signature analysis confirmed the impact of alcohol exposure, with Signature 16 present in all tumour samples. Characterisation of immune cell infiltration highlighted an immunosuppressive environment in all samples, which exceeded the potential activity of T cells. Studies such as the one described here have important clinical value and contribute to personalised treatment decisions for patients with synchronous primaries and matched recurrences.

• Deep single-cell RNA sequencing data for 12346 T cells from tumour, adjacent normal tissue and peripheral blood of treatment-naive NSCLC patients

  Cancer immunotherapies have shown sustained clinical responses in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but efficacy varies between patients and is believed to depend in part on the amount and properties of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). To comprehensively depict and dissect the baseline landscape of the composition, lineage and functional states of TILs in lung cancer, here we generated deep single-cell RNA sequencing data for 12,346 T cells from the primary tumour, adjacent normal tissues and peripheral blood of 14 treatment-naive NSCLC patients. Combined expression and TCR-based lineage tracking revealed a significant proportion of effector T cells with common origins and similar functional states across peripheral blood and tumours pointing towards a highly migratory nature of these T cells. We also observed tumour-infiltrating CD8+ T cells undergoing extensive clonal expansion and exhaustion, with two clusters of cells exhibiting states preceding exhaustion. Survival analysis on independent datasets suggested that high ratio of pre-exhausted to exhausted T cells is associated with better prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). In addition, we observed further heterogeneity within the tumour regulatory T cells (Tregs), characterized by the bimodal distribution of TNFRSF9, an activation marker for antigen-specific Tregs. The gene signature of this group of activated tumour Tregs, which included IL1R2, correlated with poor prognosis in LUAD. The T cell clusters revealed by our single cell analyses provide a new approach for patient stratification, and the accompanying compendium of data will help the research community to gain further insight into the functional states and dynamics of T cell responses in lung cancer.

• RNAseq of ribosomal footprints

  Cancer genes can affect ribosomal RNA processing and this can underlie their essentiality to cells, making them cell-essential in the same way as ribosomal genes themselves. We want to confirm this, in order to understand the results of our CRISPR drop-out screens.NOTE FROM BESPOKE TEAM: Run a single read 1 (forward read) of 30 bases, then an index 1 read as normal. This would fit a 50cycle kit
