Use of Whole Genome Sequencing for Diagnosis and Discovery in the Cancer Genetics Clinic

Despite the potential of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to improve patient diagnosis and care, the empirical value of WGS in the cancer genetics clinic is unknown. We performed WGS on members of two cohorts of cancer genetics patients: those with BRCA1/2 mutations (n = 176) and those without (n = 82). Initial analysis of potentially pathogenic variants (PPVs, defined as nonsynonymous variants with allele frequency < 1% in ESP6500) in 163 clinically-relevant genes suggested that WGS will provide useful clinical results. This is despite the fact that a majority of PPVs were novel missense variants likely to be classified as variants of unknown significance (VUS). Furthermore, previously reported pathogenic missense variants did not always associate with their predicted diseases in our patients. This suggests that the clinical use of WGS will require large-scale efforts to consolidate WGS and patient data to improve accuracy of interpretation of rare variants. While loss-of-function (LoF) variants represented only a small fraction of PPVs, WGS identified additional cancer risk LoF PPVs in patients with known BRCA1/2 mutations and led to cancer risk diagnoses in 21% of non-BRCA cancer genetics patients after expanding our analysis to 3209 ClinVar genes. These data illustrate how WGS can be used to improve our ability to discover patients' cancer genetic risks. "Reprinted from doi:10.1016/j.ebiom.2014.12.003, with permission from EBioMedicine."

Geriatric Oncology Database of genotypes and methylation, gene expression, clinical data, and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions in Japanese elderly cancer patients to establish truly effective treatment strategy

Owing to the advent of super-aged society, cancer mortality in Japan is forecasted to become an all-time high. The management of elderly patients with cancer is a serious health issue and the need for specific care guidelines for this population is critical in Japan. The significant individual differences in comorbidity, physical and mental functioning, and social problems among aging individuals are obstacles to the progress. The response to cancer treatment varies significantly among patients, even in the same stage of the same type of cancer. Older aged patients are still less likely to be offered participation in clinical trials, thus the number of clinical evidences is limited. The molecular mechanisms regulating the physiological process of ageing and senescence, and cancer are far from understood. To establish a truly effective treatment algorithm, we attempted to develop a geriatric oncology database for genotypes and methylation, gene expression, clinical data, and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions in Japanese elderly cancer patients in this retrospective study. The genomic analysis was performed in 62, 106, and 173 cases, respectively for gastric, colon and lung cancers. The clinical data and survey results on psychosocial and physical conditions were collected from 166, 313, and 344 patients respectively for gastric, colon and lung cancers, and also collected from 357, 49, and 300 benign cases respectively for cardiovascular disorder, respiratory dysfunction, diabetes and nephropathy as the analysis control.

Single Cell RNA Transcriptomics of Mantle Cell Lymphoma Reveals the Presence of Treatment-Resistant Subclones at the Time of Diagnosis

Mantle cell lymphoma is a chronically relapsing B cell neoplasm characterized by clonal heterogeneity. We implemented single cell RNA sequencing of paired tumor samples from four patients with an aggressive nodal MCL at diagnosis and after failure of standard immunochemotherapy. Clustering the cells based on the inferred CNVs showed small subclones present at diagnosis with a CNV profile similar to the major subclone at relapse. Comparison of these subclones to major subclones present at diagnosis revealed 119 upregulated pathways common for the four patient with an aggressive MCL, including NF-kappaB and PTEN signaling pathways. Additionally, we sequenced a patient with an indolent to blastoid MCL transformation with intestinal tissue involvement. In contrast to other compartments at relapse, the cells in the intestine showed strikingly different CNV profile and presence of new driver mutations including NOTCH1. In conclusion, our study demonstrates that scRNAseq can potentially detect therapy resistant subclones at diagnosis.

Establishment and characterization of circulating tumor cells-derived organoids from metastatic breast cancer patients.

Over the last decade, molecular stratification and associated therapies have greatly improved the treatment options and prognosis of patients diagnosed with breast cancer. However, metastatic disease remains incurable. Breast cancer cells mainly spread to the lung, liver, bone and brain and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that migrate in the lymphatics or blood have been implicated as the cellular source of metastasis. Detailed molecular and functional characterization of patient CTCs remains poor due to their low number in patient’s bloodstream. In addition, CTCs are difficult to culture and expand ex vivo. Here we have established a novel method for culturing and unlimitedly expanding breast cancer patient-derived CTCs in CTC-derived organoids (CDOs). Our platform can serve as a foundation for serial longitudinal isolation and expansion of breast cancer cells from peripheral blood. This may enable the identification and functional validation of therapy resistance mechanisms during disease progression, which can be used for new approaches in precision medicine.

Somatic_mutation_and_clonal_evolution_normal_breast_tissue_TGS

Cancer is a genetic disease caused by an accumulation of mutations, however many of these mutations have been identified in pathologically normal tissue. We aim to use laser-capture microscopy (LCM) to sample individual clones from breast tissue to identify whether cancer-associated mutations appear in this normal tissue, assess the mutational burden present, and identify the mutational processes causing these mutations. We will sample from a wide age range of individuals (<20 to >70 years old) to determine whether these processes differ in pre- and post-menopausal women. We will also be comparing the tissue from healthy individuals (samples from breast reduction surgery) to those at elevated risk of breast cancer (mastectomy from BRCA1/2 patients) and those who have breast cancer (adjacent normal, distal normal, and tumour tissue from mastectomy). This will allow us to determine how these processes are different between these groups of individuals, and gain insight into the earliest stages of tumour development.

Genome analysis of oesophageal cancer and Barrett's oesophagus

The median survival of oesophageal cancer this year is only 13 to 19 months after diagnosis and more than 90% will die from their disease. Therefore better treatment options are needed. The likelihood of cure for early screen-detected cancers is much higher. Barrett's oesophagus is a pre-cancerous lesion associated with a 30-40 fold increased risk of developing cancer. In an attempt to detect cancer early many patients with Barrett's are enrolled into surveillance programs involving regular endoscopies. A major problem with this approach is that the prevalence of BO in the population is estimated to be around 2%, but most patients with BO will never develop cancer. We are undertaking genomic and/or transcriptomic analysis of oesophageal tumours, Barrett's oesophagus and matched normal samples. The aim is to identify oesophageal-related genomic and transcriptomic alterations, which may reveal mutational process occurring, suggest biomarkers of tumour progression and treatment and identify novel treatment strategies.

CTCF/cohesin-binding sites are frequently mutated in cancer

Cohesin is present in almost all active enhancer regions, where it is associated with transcription factors. Cohesin frequently colocalizes with CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor), affecting genomic stability, expression and epigenetic homeostasis. Cohesin subunits are mutated in cancer, but CTCF/cohesin-binding sites (CBSs) in DNA have not been examined for mutations. Here we report frequent mutations at CBSs in cancers displaying a mutational signature where mutations in A•T base pairs predominate. Integration of whole-genome sequencing data from 213 colorectal cancer (CRC) samples and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-exo) data identified frequent point mutations at CBSs. In contrast, CRCs showing an ultramutator phenotype caused by defects in the exonuclease domain of DNA polymerase ɛ (POLE) displayed significantly fewer mutations at and adjacent to CBSs. Analysis of public data showed that multiple cancer types accumulate CBS mutations. CBSs are a major mutational hotspot in the noncoding cancer genome.
