• Diverse mutational landscapes in human lymphocytes

  A lymphocyte suffers many threats to its genome, including programmed mutation during differentiation, antigen-driven proliferation and residency in diverse microenvironments. After developing protocols for single-cell lymphocyte expansions, we sequenced whole genomes from 717 normal naive and memory B and T lymphocytes and hematopoietic stem cells. All lymphocyte subsets carried more point mutations and structural variants than haematopoietic stem cells – the extra mutations were mostly acquired during differentiation, with burdens higher in memory than naive lymphocytes, although T cells also had a higher rate of mutation accumulation throughout life. Off-target effects of immunological diversification accounted for most of the additional differentiation-associated mutations in lymphocytes. Memory B cells acquired, on average, 18 off-target mutations genome-wide for every one on-target IGV mutation during the germinal centre reaction. Structural variation was 16-fold higher in lymphocytes than stem cells, with ~15% of deletions being attributable to off-target RAG activity. Mutational processes associated with ultraviolet light exposure and other sporadic mutational processes generated hundreds to thousands of mutations in some memory lymphocytes. The mutation burden and signatures of normal B lymphocytes were broadly comparable to those seen in many B-cell cancers, suggesting that malignant transformation of lymphocytes arises from the same mutational processes active across normal ontogeny. The mutational landscape of normal lymphocytes chronicles the off-target effects of programmed genome engineering during immunological diversification and the consequences of differentiation, proliferation and residency in diverse microenvironments.

• Targeted sequencing data for various human bulk tissues

  To estimate the contribution of early embryogenic cell lineages in adult tissues, we performed deep targeted sequencing on 379 bulk tissues from various organs of the five individuals (DB3, DB6, DB8, DB9, DB10). Of the 441 early embryonic mutations targeted, 411 mutations could have high-quality baits designed for them. DNA libraries were prepared by SureSelectXT Library Prep Kit (Agilent), hybridized to the appropriate capture panel, multiplexed on flow cells, and subjected to paired-end sequencing (150-bp reads) on the NovaSeq 6000 platform (Illumina) with a mean ~2,900x depth of coverage for the early mutations. Sequence reads were trimmed and mapped to the human reference genome (GRCh37) using the BWA-MEM algorithm.

• Diagnostic utility of whole genome sequencing in adults with B-other acute lymphoblastic leukemia - RNA

  Genomic profiling at diagnosis of B-cell precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (BCP-ALL) in adults is used to guide disease classification, risk stratification and treatment decisions. Patients for which diagnostic screening fails to identify disease defining or risk stratifying lesions are classified as B-other ALL. We screened a cohort of 652 BCP-ALL cases enrolled in UKALL14 to identify and perform whole genome sequencing (WGS) on paired tumor-normal samples. For 52 B-other patients we compared WGS findings to data from clinical and research cytogenetics. WGS identifies a cancer associated event in 51/52 cases, this includes an established subtype defining genetic alteration in 5/52 that were previously missed by standard-of-care genetics. Of the 47 true B-other ALL we identified a recurrent driver in 87% (41).  Complex karyotype by cytogenetics emerges as a heterogeneous group, underlied by distinct genetic alterations associated with either favorable (DUX4-r) or poor outcomes (MEF2D-r, IGK::BCL2). For a subset of 31 cases, we integrate findings from RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis to include fusion gene detection, and classification by gene expression. Compared to RNA-seq, WGS was sufficient to detect and resolve recurrent genetic subtypes, however RNA-seq can provide orthogonal validation of findings. In conclusion, we demonstrate that WGS can identify clinically relevant genetic abnormalities missed by standard-of-care testing and identify leukemia driver events in virtually all cases of B-other ALL.

• Genomic profiling of subcutaneous patient derived xenograft models of solid childhood cancer

  The pediatric cancer cohort in this study included 70 PDX models from 65 different individuals. This cohort included a total of 16 different pediatric solid tumor subtypes, including fourteen Wilms tumors, thirteen hepatoblastomas, thirteen osteosarcomas, ten germ cell tumors, four neuroblastomas, three clear cell sarcomas, two adrenal cortical carcinomas, two leydig cell tumors, two medulloblastomas, one embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS), one Ewing sarcoma, one pleomorphic sarcoma, one adenocarcinoma, one glioblastoma, one mesothelioma and one ovarian tumor. Notably, we have five samples with multiple PDX models from same patient, including two cases with duplicates (564 and 564-Dup, 1796 and 1796-Dup), one case with two different metastasis (560-SM, 560-LM), one case with two blocks from same tumor (1939 and 1939-Dup), and one case with different primary tumor from same patient (2264 and 1932). We have a total of 353 sequencing data, including 82 RNA sequencing data (RNA-seq), 138 whole-exome sequencing (WES) and 135 low-pass whole-genome sequencing (WGS). For RNA-seq data, we have 61 PDXs and 21 PTs; for WES, we have 67 PDXs, 30 PTs and 40 matched normal germlines; for WGS, we have 64 PDXs, 30 PTs and 40 matched normal germlines. Of which, 19 PT-PDX paired RNA-seq, 28 paired PT-PDX paired WES and WGS were included.

• Combined MEK and BCL-2/XL inhibition is effective in high-grade serous ovarian cancer patient-derived xenograft models and BIM levels are predictive of responsiveness

  Most patients with late stage high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) initially respond to chemotherapy but inevitably relapse and develop resistance, highlighting the need for novel therapies to improve patient outcomes. The MEK/ERK pathway is activated in a large subset of HGSOC, thus making it an attractive therapeutic target. Here, we systematically evaluated the extent of MEK/ERK pathway activation and efficacy of pathway inhibition in a large panel of well-annotated HGSOC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models. The vast majority of models were nonresponsive to the MEK inhibitor cobimetinib (GDC-0973) despite effective pathway inhibition. Proteomic analyses of adaptive responses to GDC-0973 revealed that GDC-0973 upregulated the pro-apoptotic protein BIM, thus priming the cells for apoptosis regulated by BCL2-family proteins. Indeed, combination of both MEK inhibitor and dual BCL-2/XL inhibitor (ABT-263) significantly reduced cell number, increased cell death and displayed synergy in vitro in most models. In vivo, the GDC-0973 and ABT-263 combination was well tolerated and resulted in greater tumor growth inhibition than single agents. Detailed proteomic and correlation analyses identified two subsets of responsive models – those with high BIM at baseline that was increased with MEK inhibition and those with low basal Bim and high pERK levels. Models with low BIM and low pERK were non-responsive. Our findings demonstrate that combined MEK and BCL-2/XL inhibition has therapeutic activity in HGSOC models and provide a mechanistic rationale for clinical evaluation of this drug combination as well as the assessment of the extent to which BIM and/or pERK levels predict drug combination effectiveness in chemoresistant HGSOC.

• Longitudinal profiling of the immune response to Plasmodium vivax in naive hosts by RNA-sequencing

  Plasmodium vivax offers unique challenges for control and elimination, and may prove a tougher hurdle to overcome than Plasmodium falciparum. And yet compared to P. falciparum we know very little about the innate and adaptive immune responses that need to be harnessed to reduce disease and transmission. We recently generated a blood bank of a new clonal field isolate of P. vivax (PvW1) for human challenge studies and used systems immunology tools to track the host response throughout infection and convalescence. As part of this study, RNA-sequencing was used to resolve changes in whole blood gene expression through time in 6 volunteers (7-9 time-points per volunteer). In summary, these data show that P. vivax induces two distinct transcriptional programmes in whole blood during and after infection. During infection, transcriptional profiling reveals the rapid mobilisation of an emergency myeloid response, which leads to systemic inflammation and the recruitment of all major T cell subsets into lymphoid tissues. Six days after infection, this innate response subsides and a transcriptional signature of proliferation is revealed. This most likely represents widespread activation of lymphocytes, which return to the circulation after parasite clearance - transcriptional profiling of T cells at this time-point could therefore reveal the outcomes of critical cell-cell interactions that take place within the spleen during infection. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Characterization and clinical relevance of the genomic alterations defining invasive lobular breast cancer

  Background: Invasive lobular breast cancer (ILBC) is the second most common histological subtype after ductal breast cancer (IDBC). In spite of significant clinical and pathological differences, ILBC is still treated as IDBC. Here, we aimed at identifying recurrent genomic alterations in ILBC with potential clinical implications.Methods: Starting from 630 ILBC primary tumors with a median follow up of 10 years, we interrogated oncogenic substitutions and indels of 360 cancer genes and genome-wide copy number alterations in 413 and 170 ILBC samples, respectively, and correlated those findings with clinical, pathological, and outcome features. The Cancer Genome Atlas database was used for comparison of frequency estimates.Results: Besides the high mutation frequency of CDH1 in 65% of the tumors, alterations in one of the three key genes of the PI3K pathway, PIK3CA, PTEN and AKT1, were present in more than half of the cases. ERBB2 and ERBB3 were mutated in 5.1 and 3.6% of the tumors. FOXA1 mutations and ESR1 copy number gains were detected in 9% and 25% of the samples. All these alterations were more frequent in ILBC than IDBC. The histological diversity of ILBC was associated with specific genomic alterations, such as enrichment for ERBB2 mutations in the mixed, non-classic subtype, and for ARID1A mutations and ESR1 gains in the solid subtype. Finally, ERBB2 and AKT1 mutations were associated with short-term risk of relapse, and chromosome 1q and 11p gain with increased and decreased breast cancer free survival, respectively.Conclusion: ERBB2, ERBB3 and AKT1 mutations represent high prevalence therapeutic targets in ILBC. FOXA1 mutations and ESR1 gains urgently deserve dedicated clinical investigation, especially in the context of endocrine treatment.

• Beacon v2

  Beacon v2: a tool for data discovery Motivation In the era of data-driven health research and personalised medicine, human genomic data has become extremely valuable. These are also identifiable data, as they carry information pointing to a specific individual as well as their own family; and as such, they must be protected. This makes data discovery particularly challenging: this is where ?Beacon? comes in. A ?Beacon? is an API aiming to enable the search of genomic variants and associated information without jeopardising the privacy of the dataset. Here, we refer to its current version, namely version 2 (v2). Definition Beacon v2 is a term that can refer to different aspects. The EGA is playing a central role in the following aspects: The Beacon v2 protocol is a Global Alliance for Health and Genomics standard. The Beacon v2 Reference Implementation (B2RI) is an ?out-of-the-box? Beacon instance developed with ELIXIR, which facilitates Beacon deployment. The EGA Beacon(s) are Beacons following the v2 standard and using the B2RI, deployed on top of data hosted at the EGA and allowing for their discovery. Resources Depending on whether you are visiting us a stakeholder (you need more general information about Beacon), a deployer /implementer (you want to have your own Beacon instance), or an EGA user (you want to query Beacon and start browsing data), you will be interested in the following resources: Your role Beacon aspect Documentation type Stakeholder Beacon v2 protocol Beacon website Beacon page on the GA4GH website Deployer/Implementer Beacon v2 protocol Read the docs: Beacon v2 standard technical description GitHub repository Beacon v2 standard Beacon v2 Reference Implementation Read the docs: B2RI technical description GitHub repository B2RI Guide to deploy Beacon using B2RI EGA user EGA Beacon EGA AF Browser
