Dataset contains all available exome sequencing paired-end fastq files from our study "A generalizable machine learning framework for classifying DNA repair defects using ctDNA exomes"
Using high-throughput sequencing technologies and analytical tools, we conduct an exome sequencing study that will help understand the population genetics of a Croatian island isolate, in a sample of 200 subjects from the Adriatic island of Vis who were selected to reflect islanders with at least four known ancestors in grandparental line who are original islanders.
The dataset contains the whole genome sequencing data of a family with two unaffected parents and two probands that showed Hereditary spastic paraplegias symptoms. Sequencing reads were aligned to human genome (GRCh38) using BWA-MEM, followed by indel-realignment and PCR-duplicates marking. Alignment results are available for download in BAM format.
This dataset contains the imputed genotypes for 197 individuals. All individuals were genotyped with the Illumina HumanCoreExome-24 array. The individuals were phased with SHAPEIT and imputed to the 1000 Genomes Project Phase III using IMPUTE2. This dataset was generated as part of the following study: Panousis et al (2019). Combined genetic and transcriptome analysis of patients with SLE: Distinct, targetable signatures for susceptibility and severity
Aberrant DNA repair processes are a hallmark of human tumours. How these deficiencies variously impact the genomes of ovarian cancer between and within histotypes remains unknown. We studied the whole genome pointmutation and structural variation patterns of 133 tumours (59 high grade serous (HGSC), 35 clear cell (CCOC), 29 endometrioid (ENOC), and 10 adult granulosa cell tumours (GCT)) as a substrate for class discovery in ovarian cancer. Ab-initio clustering of integrated point mutation and structural variation signatures revealed seven novel subgroups, comprising between and within histotype stratification. Prevalence of fold-back inversions (FBI) co-localised with high level amplification events divided HGSC into two prognostically significant subgroups. This finding was recapitulated in two additional independent cohorts (total n=576 cases), and transcended gene based mutation status and gene expression as prognostically relevant features of HGSC. CCOC were divided into one group harbouring a signature reflective of active genome editing via APOBEC enzymes (26%) and a complementary group with an age-relatedmutational signature. ENOC were divided intomicrosatellite instable (MSI) cases (28%) with a distinctmismatch repairmutation signature and an outlying mutation rate, with the remainder of cases distributed amongst the remaining six groups. We suggest the FBI, MSI, and APOBEC groups represent biologic strata that could direct treatment strategies. Taken together, our work establishes the efficacy of the somatic genome as a biomarker to stratify ovarian cancers, simultaneously identifying patients that may benefit from emerging therapeutics and distinct subgroups within classic ovarian cancer histotypes.
To determine whether antigen-specific T cell responses can be elicited following treatment with ICT in cancers that have a low TMB, a clinical trial with ipilimumab (anti-CTLA-4) was conducted in 30 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We identified 2 distinct groups of patients divided by clinical outcomes, which consisted of a cohort with Favorable and Unfavorable outcomes. Compared to the Unfavorable cohort, the patients in the Favorable cohort were more likely to have higher intratumoral CD8 T cell density and/or IFN-γ response gene signature, including five patients who had antigen-specific T cell responses that were only detectable after ipilimumab therapy. Three patients had T cell responses against tumor-associated antigens (PSMA and PAP). Importantly, two patients with a relatively low TMB had T cell responses against unique neoantigens. Collectively, our data indicate that a subset of patients with metastatic prostate cancer benefit from ICTs, particularly those who have immunological biomarkers associated with effector T cell responses.
