• Response and Resistance to ER-Directed Therapy in Metastatic Breast Cancer

  Despite the reduction in cancer recurrence and mortality provided by hormonal therapy, estrogen receptor positive (ER+) metastatic breast cancer (MBC) remains the most common cause of breast cancer death, resulting in more than 20,000 deaths in the U.S each year. Although several therapeutic options exist to target the estrogen receptor, resistance to these therapies invariably occurs. Genetic mechanisms of acquired resistance to targeted therapies in ER+ MBC are not well understood. To address this, we developed a prospective biopsy protocol where multiple research biopsies are collected from metastatic samples and used for pathology, ER/PR/HER2, OncoPanel (a CLIA 300 gene sequencing panel), whole exome sequencing (WES), transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq), and single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq). In some cases, tissue is used for cell line and xenograft generation. Archival primary biopsies are also obtained when possible for parallel genomic studies. Patients are followed and serial metastatic biopsies are obtained. This data will be used to determine the landscape of genomic alterations in treatment-resistant ER+ MBC, and compared to data generated by TCGA for treatment-naive ER+ primary breast cancer. Comparison of genomic studies from resistant, metastatic specimens with corresponding pre-treatment primary samples will allow us to identify genomic association with resistance to specific therapies. Analysis of the serial metastatic biopsies collected over the course of multiple treatments will also shed light on tumor evolution under selective therapeutic pressure.NoteA subset of the MBC blood biopsies that are included in our study can be accessed and downloaded from the phs001977 accession.Another subset of patients in this study participated in a clinical trial (NCT02871791) and have their data deposited in the current study as well.

• HiDEF-seq single-molecule sequencing of single-strand mismatches and damage

  Our study sought to resolve, with single-molecule fidelity, the mismatches and damage events that precede DNA mutations. Using a novel single-molecule, long-read sequencing method (HiDEF-seq) we detect base substitutions when present in either one or both DNA strands. We also detect cytosine deamination, a common type of DNA damage, with single-molecule fidelity. This study profiled 134 samples from diverse tissues, including from individuals with cancer predisposition syndromes. These samples revealed single-strand mismatch and damage signatures. Since double-strand DNA mutations are only the endpoint of the mutation process, our approach enables new studies of how mutations arise in a variety of contexts, especially in cancer and aging.

• Identification of fusion transcripts by RNA-sequencing and Whole genome sequencing of a METABRIC patient sample

  Fusion transcripts and their exact breakpoints were identified in RNA-seq data (30X) of an ER-,HER2+ breast cancer. DNA-level breakpoints associated with the fusion events were determined by analyzing whole genome sequencing (WGS) data (30X) from the same donor. The RNA-seq and WGS data for this case were generated on the Illumina platform using standard protocols. The patient (MB-0152) derives from the METABRIC cohort for which array based copy number and gene expression data were previously described (EGAS00000000083).

• Transcriptomic intra-tumor heterogeneity of colorectal cancer evaluated by RNA sequencing of multi-regional biopsies

  RNA sequencing of a total of 41 tumor biopsies taken from a total of 14 patients with colorectal cancer. Ribosomal RNA was removed using the Ribo-Zero Gold rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina, CA, USA) and Paired-end sequencing were performed using ScriptSeq v2 RNA-seq Library preparation Kit (Illumina). Data processing of the paired raw sequence reads was performed using TopHat2, with mapping to the human reference genome HG19. Forty-one BAM files with reads mapping the the human reference genome (HG19) is enclosed.

• DSRCT RNA genomic sequencing

  Purpose: To further understand the molecular pathogenesis of desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT), a rare but often fatal malignancy occurring primarily in young males, we used next-generation RNA sequencing to investigate the gene expression profiles intrinsic to this disease.Experimental Design: RNA from DSRCT tumor samples were obtained from the Cooperative Human Tissue Network biorepository. RNA sequencing was completed using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 system. Presence of the EWSR1-WT1 fusion was verified using both RNA-sequencing and PCR. Validation studies, including WT1 ChIP-seq, RNA sequencing, and EWS-WT1 knockdown experiments, were performed on an established DSRCT cell line, JN-DSRCT-1. Protein expression of clinically relevant genes determined by RNA sequencing was confirmed using immunohistochemistry. A panel of immune signature genes was also evaluated to identify possible immune therapeutic targets. Results: We analyzed the RNA from 14 tumor samples, of which two were confirmed negative for the diagnostic EWSR1-WT1 translocation. Principal component analysis of the sequencing data indicated that fusion-negative and fusion-positive tumors are transcriptionally distinct entities. Overlapping the significant ChIP-seq peaks with genes found to be highly expressed in the RNA sequencing data revealed that IGF2 and FGFR4 were both highly expressed, and targets of the EWS-WT1 fusion gene. This finding has potential clinical relevance for targeted therapeutic intervention. In addition, we identified the immune checkpoints CD200 and CD276 as potentially targetable genes whose expression is independent of the EWS-WT1 fusion gene in vitro.Conclusions: Despite the transcriptional complexity of this disease, we were able to identify IGF2, FGFR4, CD200, and CD276 as potential therapeutic targets for patients suffering from DSRCT.

• RNA-seq of Liver Cancer

  The French ICGC project on liver tumors is coordinated by Pr Jessica Zucman-Rossi and funded by Inca (French Institute for Cancer). The aim of the present project is to identify the catalog of somatic and germline mutations in liver tumors using whole genome (WGS) and whole exome sequencing (WGS), integrated with DNA methylation and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) data. The present series corresponds to 161 RNA-seq samples from tumors with matched WES or WGS. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for more than 90% of liver cancers, and is a major health problem. It is the 3rd cause of cancer-related mortality. Advances in genomic analyses have formed a comprehensive understanding of different underlying pathobiological layers resulting in hepatocarcinogenesis. Thus, the development of next-generation sequencing technologies has made it possible to generate more comprehensive catalogues of somatic alteration events (single nucleotide substitutions, structural variations, and epigenetic changes) in liver cancer genome than ever before.

• Identification of therapeutic target molecules for prostate cancer by using next generation sequencer

  Comprehensive transcriptional characterization of cancer tissues can reveal important molecular signatures associated with the disease progression. Long non-coding RNA (LncRNA) has a diversity of functions such as transcription, epigenetic and gene regulation in cancer cells including prostate cancer cells. Here, we performed directional RNA-sequence (RNA-seq) on clinical samples obtained from prostate cancer (PC) and lethal castration-resistant PC (CRPC) patients to identify novel molecular signatures including protein coding genes and non-coding RNAs induced in CRPC tissues.
