• Liquid biopsy-based minimal residual disease monitoring for early risk stratification and decision-making in advanced non-small cell lung cancer

  Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring shows promise for risk stratification and decision-making in cancer patients. However, factors like background noise from non-tumor DNA, clonal haematopoiesis, and non-shedding tumors may complicate manual interpretation and limit its clinical application. In this proof-of-concept study in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), we developed an algorithm that automatically classifies serial cell-free DNA (cfDNA) samples, thereby enabling reliable and reproducible interpretation, and preventing time-consuming manual interpretation in approximately 75% of patients. Importantly, application of the algorithm allowed early risk stratification and decision-making, specifically identifying approximately 35% of patients with short-term clinical benefit and approximately 25% of patients who may potentially benefit from treatment escalation. Simultaneous serum tumor marker (STM) monitoring further improved risk stratification and decision-making in our study, enabling accurate identification of all patients with a clinical benefit of at least one year.

• Host factors dictate gut microbiome alterations in chronic kidney disease more strongly than to kidney function

  Despite recent progress, microbial markers in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) remain inconclusive. We combined quantitative faecal metagenomics (N=130 CKD cohort) and cross-study biomarker comparisons (Ntotal=4420) to study microbiome associations with glomerular filtration rate (eGFR; kidney function) and 4-year CKD progression. Transit time (TT) and medications primarily explained microbiome variation, trumping eGFR-related effects. Metagenome analysis showed increased p-cresol and indole synthesis potential and decreased plant-to-animal CAZyme ratios with lower eGFR, coupled to a Bact1 to Rum enterotype shift, suggesting saccharolytic-to-proteolytic microbiome transitions linked to dietary guidelines and slowed-down TT. Peritoneal dialysis patients showed increased (dysbiotic) Bact2 prevalence and linked intestinal inflammation. Only Escherichia coli, an unnamed Alistipes species and Bifidobacterium adolescentis were confounder-independent markers for eGFR, but these nor previous markers convincingly replicated across 11 studies. No predictors for CKD progression were found. Together, poor evidence for microbiome biomarkers but substantial eGFR-independent effects were found, suggesting potential for nutritional and TT interventions in CKD.

• Inferring tumor genomes from peripheral blood i.e. CTCs and plasma-DNA using deep sequencing and targeted enrichment

  In this study we tested whether complex tumor genomes can be inferred from the peripheral blood (plasma DNA /CTCs) of 32 patients with stage IV colorectal carcinoma (CRC). To establish the percentage of mutated plasma DNA fragments we used 8 patient samples with different plasma DNA size distributions and KRAS mutations in their corresponding primary tumors and employed ultra-deep pyrosequencing with 3 different sequencing reaction sizes (i.e., 119 bp, 168 bp, and 323 bp). Furthermore, we used massive parallel sequencing of a panel of 68 CRC-associated genes to establish the mutation spectrum of cancer driver genes in the primary tumors, metastases, and CTCs of two colorectal cancer patients. To investigate, whether mutations found in only one CTC (“private CTC mutations”) are true mutations occurring with allele frequencies below the resolution limits of current detection methods, or whether they are amplification or sequencing artifacts, we performed ultra-deep sequencing of the primary tumors, metastases, plasma DNAs and normal tissues.

• Whole Genome Sequencing of Gingivo-buccal Cancer: ICGC-India Project_YR03

  As a part of the ICGC, India has undertaken genomic studies on gingivobuccal cancer of the oral cavity, which is the most prevalent form of cancer among men in India. There are various known environmental (life-style) correlates of this cancer, the most important of which are tobacco chewing and HPV infection. Whole genome sequencing of paired DNA samples – isolated from the tumor tissue and from the blood of twenty five patients – have been performed to catalog germline and somatic mutations. Association between each observed genomic alteration and exposure to environmental risk factors is being explored. Detailed clinical characterization of the patients, collection of data on demographic and environmental exposures, and isolation of DNA samples from blood and tumor tissues collected from each patient are being done at the Advanced Centre for Research, Treatment and Education on Cancer, Mumbai. Whole genome sequencing is being performed at the National Institute of Biomedical Genomics, Kalyani. We have completed whole genome sequencing of paired blood and tumor DNA samples using Illumina HiSeq-2000 and 2500.

• Sequencing of an organoid biobank for childhood kidney cancers that captures disease and tissue heterogeneity.

  Kidney tumors are among the most common solid tumors in children, comprising several distinct subtypes differing in many aspects, including cell-of-origin, genetics, and pathology. Pre-clinical cell models capturing the disease heterogeneity are currently lacking. Here, we describe the first pediatric cancer organoid biobank. It contains tumor and matching normal organoids from over 50 children with different subtypes of kidney cancer, including Wilms tumors, malignant rhabdoid tumors, renal cell carcinomas, and congenital mesoblastic nephromas. The malignant rhabdoid tumor organoids represent the first organoid model for tumors of non-epithelial origin. The tumor organoids retain key properties of native tumors, useful for revealing patient specific drug vulnerabilities. We further demonstrate that organoid cultures derived from Wilms tumors consist of multiple different cell types, including epithelial, stromal and blastemal-like. Our organoid biobank captures the cellular heterogeneity of pediatric kidney tumors, providing a representative collection of well-characterized models for basic cancer research, drug-screening, and personalized medicine.

• Genome-wide SNP genotyping of Central African rainforest hunter-gatherers and neighbouring agriculturalists

  The emergence of agriculture in West-Central Africa, ~5,000 years ago, profoundly modified the cultural landscape and mode of subsistence of most sub-Saharan populations. How this major innovation has impacted the genetic history of rainforest hunter-gatherers — historically referred to as “pygmies” — and agriculturalists, however, remains poorly understood. Here, we report genome-wide SNP data from eight of these populations located west-to-east of the equatorial rainforest. We find that hunter-gathering populations present up to 50% of farmer genomic ancestry, and that substantial admixture began only within the last 1,000 years. Furthermore, we show that the historical population sizes characterising these communities already differed before the introduction of agriculture. Our results suggest that the first socio-economic interactions between rainforest hunter-gatherers and farmers introduced by the spread of farming were not accompanied by immediate, extensive genetic exchanges and occurred on a backdrop of two groups already differentiated by their specialisation in two ecotopes with differing carrying capacities.

• Illumina HumanCoreExome genotyping data from the British Society for Surgery of the Hand Genetics of Dupuytren’s Disease consortium (BSSH-GODD consortium) collection

  Dupuytren's Disease (DD - OMIM126900) is the most common heritable disorder of connective tissue. It is a fibroproliferative disorder of the palmer fascia, causing flexion contractures of affected digits. DD affects men more commonly than women. DD is an archetypal complex disease, with multiple genetic and environmental factors affecting the final expression of the disease phenotype. The incidence increases with age, and the prevalence of DD is therefore increasing as the UK population ages. Half of all patients present before age 60. DD causes significant functional impairment, and severe contractures can lead to permanent disability. The mainstay of current treatment is surgery, but recurrence and complications are both high. For severe contractures, the only suitable treatment option is amputation. The direct costs to the NHS are high, and underestimate the true economic costs to society. We collected salivary samples from adults in the UK who have had surgery for DD. We have genotyped these samples using the Illumina HumanCoreExome Beadchips. https://research.ndorms.ox.ac.uk/public/dupuytrens/what-is-dupuytrens-disease/

• Scalable whole-genome single-cell library preparation without pre-amplification

  Single-cell genomics is critical for understanding cellular heterogeneity in cancer, but existing library preparation methods are expensive, require sample preamplification and introduce coverage bias. Here we describe direct library preparation (DLP), a robust, scalable, and high-fidelity method that uses nanoliter-volume transposition reactions for single-cell whole-genome library preparation without preamplification. We examined 782 cells from cell lines and triple-negative breast xenograft tumors. Low-depth sequencing, compared with existing methods, revealed greater coverage uniformity and more reliable detection of copy-number alterations. Using phylogenetic analysis, we found minor xenograft subpopulations that were undetectable by bulk sequencing, as well as dynamic clonal expansion and diversification between passages. Merging single-cell genomes in silico, we generated "bulk-equivalent" genomes with high depth and uniform coverage. Thus, low-depth sequencing of DLP libraries may provide an attractive replacement for conventional bulk sequencing methods, permitting analysis of copy number at the cell level and of other genomic variants at the population level.

• Drug screening and whole genome sequencing of primary cells and cell lines from ovarian cancer patients to associate genomic aberrations with in vitro drug sensitivities

  Identifying drugs for cancers with poor prognosis like ovarian cancer (OC) is hindered by inappropriate cell models and the limitations of current viability assays. We developed an automated confocal microscopy-based live cell assay (DeathPro) that robustly de-convolves cell death and proliferation over time by employing a specific image processing strategy. Using DeathPro, we screened nine OC patient-derived cell lines and one normal cell line (HOSEpiC) with 22 drugs or combinations. Whole genome was performed to analyze if the cell lines harbor OC-typical genomic aberrations and to relate genomic features to drug sensitivities. Commonly observed alterations in OC patients like TP53 mutations and MYC or PI3KCA amplifications were absent in the normal cell line but frequently detected in the OC cell lines. Moreover, genome-derived homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) scores of the OC cell lines correlated with their responses to carboplatin, olaparib and DNA demethylation drugs. Overall, we propose an imaging-based platform to guide drug development and genome-drug sensitivity analysis.
