• Analysis of CD20 loss in patients treated with Mosunetuzumab

  CD20 is an established therapeutic target in B-cell malignancies. The CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody mosunetuzumab has significant efficacy in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL). Since target antigen loss is a recognized mechanism of resistance, we evaluated the contribution of CD20 expression to clinical response in patients with relapsed and/or refractory NHL in the phase 1/2 GO29781 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02500407) investigating mosunetuzumab monotherapy. CD20 was studied using immunohistochemistry (IHC), RNA sequencing, and whole-exome sequencing performed centrally in biopsies collected prior to treatment, or as paired samples at pre-dose and on-treatment, or at-progression. Prior to treatment, most patients exhibited a high proportion of tumor cells expressing CD20; however, the proportion of CD20+ tumor cells in 14/293 (6%) patients was <10%. Analyses of paired biopsies from patients during treatment revealed that CD20 levels were maintained in 29/30 (97%), vs patients with samples at-progression, in which 11/32 (34%) showed CD20 loss. Reduced transcription or acquisition of truncating mutations explained most but not all cases of CD20 loss. In vitro modeling confirmed the effect of CD20 variants identified in clinical samples on reduction of CD20 expression and confirmed missense mutations in the extracellular domain that could block mosunetuzumab binding. This study expands knowledge about the occurrence of target antigen loss after anti-CD20 therapeutics to CD20-targeting bispecific antibodies and elucidates the underlying mechanisms for reduced CD20 expression at disease progression that may be generalizable to other anti-CD20 targeting agents. These results also establish the utility of readily-available IHC staining for CD20 as a tool to inform clinical decisions.

• Molecular and clinical diversity in primary central nervous system lymphoma: a LOC Network study

  Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a distinct extranodal lymphoma presenting with limited stage disease but variable response rates to treatment despite homogenous pathological presentation. The likely underlying molecular heterogeneity and its clinical impact is poorly understood. We performed a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of 147 PCNSL from fresh-frozen tumor tissue from immunocompetent, treatment naïve PCNSL patients, employing whole-exome sequencing, assessment of somatic copy number alterations and DNA methylation, and RNA expression. These data were integrated and correlated with the clinico-radiological characteristics and outcomes of the patients. We validated our results in an independent series of 93 PCNSL formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples. Consensus clustering of multi-omics data identified four robust, non-overlapping, prognostically significant clusters (CS) within PCNSL. The CS1 group, characterized by high proliferation and Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) complex activity had an intermediate outcome between CS2/CS3 and CS4. Patients who had PCNSL with an “immune-hot” (CS4) profile had the most favorable clinical outcome. In contrast, patients with the immune-cold hypermethylated CS2 and the heterogenous-immune CS3 groups had a poor prognosis. Nearly all PCNSL patients with meningeal infiltration harbored HIST1H1E mutations, enriched in the CS3 group. The integrated analysis suggests that the CS4 group may be more susceptible to immunotherapy. The integration of genome-wide data from multi-omics data revealed four molecular patterns in PCNSL with a distinctive prognostic impact that significantly improved the current clinical stratification. This molecular classification using FFPE samples facilitates routine use in clinical practice and provides potential precision-medicine strategies in PCNSL.

• Single-Cell Genome Sequencing of Gastrointestinal Carcinomas

  We experimentally derived copy number profiles and transcriptome profiles of gastrointestinal cancers using single cell sequencing. Using a microfluidic droplet partitioning system, we isolated individual cells of a suspension from a primary solid tumor into droplets. These droplets tag the resultant genomic or transcriptomic material with an identifying barcode that enables bioinformatic single cell tracking. From this joint analysis, we determined the overall level of genomic instability for gastrointestinal cancers as well as transcriptomic consequences from these events.

• USARC 10X Genomics Single Cell DNA Sequencing Data

  We investigated the impact of ploidy heterogeneity on copy number inference at a single cell level using fluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) nuclei from an undifferentiated soft tissue sarcoma. FACS revealed the presence of three aberrant subpopulations, including a haploid, a near diploid and a whole genome doubled population. Once sorted, single cell nuclei underwent whole genome sequencing using the chromium CNV single cell DNA library kit (10X Genomics). We sequenced single normal nuclei (2n) and single aberrant / tumour nuclei (1n, 2n and 2n+).

• Validation of Gene Array to Predict Bacterial Co-infection In Adults Hospitalized with Viral Lower Respiratory Tract Infections (LRTI)

  Accurate tests for microbiologic diagnosis of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) are needed. Gene expression profiling of whole blood represents a powerful new approach for analysis of the host response during respiratory infection that can be used to supplement pathogen detection testing. Using qPCR, we prospectively validated the differential expression of 10 genes previously shown to discriminate bacterial and non-bacterial LRTI confirming the utility of this approach. In addition, a novel approach using RNAseq analysis identified 141 genes differentially expressed in LRTI subjects with bacterial infection. Using "pathway-informed" dimension reduction, we identified a novel 11 gene set (selected from lymphocyte, α-linoleic acid metabolism, and IGF regulation pathways) and demonstrated a predictive accuracy for bacterial LRTI (nested CV-AUC=0.87). RNAseq represents a new and an unbiased tool to evaluate host gene expression for the diagnosis of LRTI.

• TREM2+ Cells in Human Basal Cell Carcinomas

  To explore the tumor immune microenvironment heterogeneity in sporadic human basal cell carcinoma tumors, we profiled two individual patient tumors by scRNA-Seq. We identified a population of TREM2+ macrophages, which have been implicated in promoting an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. We identify that TREM2+ can promote tumor epithelial proliferation in an immunosuppressive independent manner.

• SUM-seq data for spontaneous differentiation of iPSCs upon perturbation of GATA2, NR4A2 or SOX17

  We combined SUM-seq with arrayed CRISPR screening, modulating the expression of key lineage transcription factors (TFs) (GATA2 - mesoderm, SOX17 - endoderm, and NR4A2 - neuroectoderm) in hiPSCs via CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) or activation (CRISPRa) over a time course of spontaneous differentiation (days cultured in vitro: 0, 4, 12, and 18). This totalled to 54 samples (4 day/time points x 3 target TFs x 2-3 gRNAs per target x CRISPRi/a). Single-cell chromatin accessibility and gene expression data is provided as demultiplexed fastq files.
