• Genetics of Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in N08C1 and N08CB

  Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common and potentially dose-limiting toxicity of chemotherapy treatment. CIPN severity varies widely between cancer patients, and previous studies had found evidence of genes and single nucleotide variants (SNV) being associated with CIPN. The goal of this study was to further identify genetic markers and pathways associated with CIPN severity using whole exome sequencing (WES) and whole genome sequencing (WGS) of participants in two clinical studies which collected longitudinal patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures of CIPN. NCCTG/Alliance study N08C1 was a prospective cohort study of the natural history of paclitaxel-associated acute pain syndrome (P-APS) and CIPN. NCCTG/Alliance trial N08CB was a randomized, placebo-controlled trial of calcium and magnesium for prevention of oxaliplatin-induced sensory neuropathy in which the treatment had no significant effect on either acute pain or sensory neuropathy. Both N08C1 and N08CB collected patient assessments of CIPN symptoms before each cycle of chemotherapy using the EORTC QLQ-CIPN20 instrument. For this study, CIPN cases were selected from each of N08C1 and N08CB as those patients with the most severe CIPN symptoms (assessed longitudinally). CIPN controls were selected as those with the least severe symptoms. WGS was obtained for N08C1 samples (WES had been obtained and analyzed previously), and WES was obtained for N08CB samples.

• Population Genetic Testing and SERPINA1 Sequencing Identifies Unidentified Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency Alleles and Gene-Environment Interaction with Hepatitis C Infection

  Design and aims: Data were available through an institutional effort to combine de-identified electronic health records (EHR) data with genomic information from a DNA biobank. The design of this work was a retrospective cohort study in which we investigated the rates of liver transplantation and hepatitis C infection as it relates to genotype risk for alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD). We used regression analysis to look for relationships between these risks and outcomes. This led to further investigation of environmental exposures and phenotypes as it related to the underlying genotypic risk. Population information: The cohort consisted of 72,027 individuals of European ancestry for whom genotype and EHR data were available. Molecular technologies employed: Genome-wide genotyping was previously performed using the Illumina Infinium Expanded Multi-Ethnic Genotyping Array plus custom content (referred to as the Vanderbilt University Medical Center BioVU MEGAEX). Individuals' AATD-related alleles were inferred from the genotyping data. Principal findings of the study: Liver transplantation was associated with presence of the Z AATD allele and with hepatitis C infection. There was a significant interaction between AATD genotype groups and hepatitis C infection as it related to liver transplantation. Data available through dbGaP: Inferred AATD genotype status, sex, age, length of EHR in years, presence/absence of AATD clinical diagnosis, liver transplant status, and hepatitis C infection status.

• Evolution of Core Archetypal Phenotypes in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (HGSOC)

  The evolution of resistance in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) cells in response to chemotherapy is only partially understood. To uncover phenotypic changes associated with chemotherapy resistance, we performed single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) or whole-genome sequencing of 23 total patients, with longitudinal samples collected from 9, treatment-naïve samples from 8 patients, and post-treatment samples from 6 patients. Our study revealed that the HGSOC transcriptome could be described using three core archetypal phenotypes, defined as oncogenic tasks that describe majority of the transcriptional data. We implemented a multi-task learning approach to identify the biological tasks of each archetype and identified metabolism and proliferation, cellular defense response, and DNA repair signaling. The “metabolism and proliferation” archetype evolved during treatment and was enriched in cancer cells from patients that received multiple-lines of treatment and had elevated tumor burden indicated by CA-125 levels. The emergence of archetypes was not consistently linked to specific whole-genome driver mutations. However, archetypes were closely associated with sub-clonal clusters at the single-cell level, indicating that cancer cell sub-populations specialize in particular biological tasks. Our study reveals a defining principle of ovarian tumor evolution using temporal scRNA-seq profiles, identifies the key phenotypic features across patients and links metabolic shifts with a response to chemotherapy.

• Center for Common Disease Genomics [CCDG] - Cardiovascular: Genetics of Coronary Heart Disease - Characterizaton of Coronary Prone Pedigrees

  The primary cohort includes samples from 499 men and 154 women who survived a myocardial infarction, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) by age 55 years for men or age 65 years for women. Patients were seen at least six months after their acute event. Samples from another 488 men and 541 women that showed a nearly identical age, gender, and measured blood pressure distribution were collected as population-based controls. These controls tended to live in urban Salt Lake City, where the vast majority of the population is Caucasian. Blood samples were collected in the morning after 12h to 16h of fasting and prepared according to guidelines of the Lipid Research Clinic's program Manual of Laboratory Operations. All samples have serum, DNA and/or white blood cells, and a host of measurements (e.g. standard clinical chemistries, LDL and HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, HbA1C, insulin, blood pressures, anthropometric data, information on medical conditions and drug use, etc.). Additional details about the cohort or sample preparation were published previously. Here we present in total 1,475 patients that were successfully sequenced. This number includes 228 women, 419 men, and 7 of unreported gender survivors as well as 339 women and 482 men that served as population-based controls.

• Molecular Determinants of Tumor Behavior in Early Lung Adenocarcinoma

  Lung adenocarcinoma is the leading cause of cancer death worldwide and a heterogeneous disease with poor survival in the advanced stage. Given that the frequency of early diagnosis is increasing, the investigation of the molecular determinants of disease progression is paramount. Prediction of whether the tumor is indolent or aggressive has been the subject of recent investigations. Yet, the molecular underpinnings explaining the difference in tumor behavior remains largely unknown and is directly relevant to the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of lung cancer screening, including the risks of over-diagnosis and overtreatment. To gain insights into the molecular pathogenesis and the underlying molecular determinants of clinical behavior of early adenocarcinoma, we investigated genetic alterations in 102 surgically resected early adenocarcinomas. We hypothesized that the behavior of early adenocarcinoma can be predicted based on genomic underpinnings. To identify the type of genomic alterations associated with resected indolent and aggressive early lung ADC, the DNA samples from 21 adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), 27 minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and 54 fully invasive adenocarcinoma were collected and subjected to a deep next generation sequencing, targeting a custom 347 cancer gene panel. Our study provides new insights into cancer genomic evolution, helps to elucidate the interplay of somatic mutation and the adaptation of clones, and brings new insights into the key distinction between indolent and aggressive tumor behavior.

• Human CD4 Memory T Cell Activation Time Course

  We performed a high-resolution time course RNA-seq experiment on CD4+ memory T cells during activation with anti-CD3/CD28 beads. We performed this in 24 adult individuals of European ancestry with no autoimmune diseases. We used 1 million cells as starting material, per time point (up to 8 time points per individual from 0 to 72 hours). We identified widespread dynamic allele-specific expression (dynASE) across the genome, i.e. ASE that changes with time after activation, which reflects cell state-dependent genetic regulatory effects. DynASE events were enriched in risk loci for multiple autoimmune diseases. This highlights the importance of studying multiple cellular states in order to elucidate the mechanisms of autoimmune disease. It also provides a successful framework to do it in other cellular systems relevant for other traits. We also showed an unprecedented amount of regulatory variation for HLA genes. HLA-DQB1 has 3 distinct regulatory haplotypes with expression profiles that could come from 3 different genes. We performed ATAC-seq in replicate for CD4+ memory T cells stimulated for 72 hours from another healthy individual. These data, together with genetic fine-mapping, CRISPR editing, EMSA and luciferase assays, helped us find a SNP in the promoter of HLA-DQB1 that causes at least part of the large cell state-dependent change in expression, at the RNA and protein levels.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Genome-Wide Association Study of Adiposity in Samoans

  The individuals sequenced here represent a small subset of the parent study (described below) and were carefully selected for the purpose of creating a Samoan-specific reference panel for imputation back into the parent study. The INFOSTIP algorithm of Gusev et. al. (2012) (PMID: 22135348) was used to optimally choose the individuals for sequencing. The research goal of the parent study (dbGaP ID phs000914) is to identify genetic variation that increases susceptibility to obesity and cardiometabolic phenotypes among adult Samoans using genome-wide association (GWAS) methods. DNA from peripheral blood and phenotypic information were collected from 3,119 adult Samoans, 23 to 70 years of age. The participants reside throughout the independent nation of Samoa, which is experiencing economic development and the nutrition transition. Genotyping was performed with the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 Array using a panel of approximately 900,000 SNPs. Anthropometric, fasting blood biomarkers and detailed dietary, physical activity, health and socio-demographic variables were collected. We are replicating the GWAS findings in an independent sample of 2,500 Samoans from earlier studies. After replication of genomic regions and informative SNPs in those regions, we will determine sequences of the important genes, and determine the specific genetic variants in the sequenced genes that are associated with adiposity and related cardiometabolic conditions. We will also identify gene by environment interactions, focusing on dietary intake patterns and nutrients.

• NHLBI TOPMed: Novel Risk Factors for the Development of Atrial Fibrillation in Women

  The Women's Genome Health Study (WGHS) is a prospective cohort comprised of over 25,000 initially healthy female health professionals enrolled in the Women's Health Study, which began in 1992-1994. All participants in WGHS provided baseline blood samples and extensive survey data. Women who reported atrial fibrillation during the course of the study were asked to report diagnoses of AF at baseline, 48 months, and then annually thereafter. Participants enrolled in the continued observational follow-up who reported an incident AF event on at least one yearly questionnaire were sent an additional questionnaire to confirm the episode and to collect additional information. They were also asked for permission to review their medical records, particularly available ECGs, rhythm strips, 24-hour ECGs, and information on cardiac structure and function. For all deceased participants who reported AF during the trial and extended follow-up period, family members were contacted to obtain consent and additional relevant information. An end-point committee of physicians reviewed medical records for reported events according to predefined criteria. An incident AF event was confirmed if there was ECG evidence of AF or if a medical report clearly indicated a personal history of AF. The earliest date in the medical records when documentation was believed to have occurred was set as the date of onset of AF.

• Identification of Cancer Predisposition Genes in Breast Cancer Families

  Breast cancer has a significant genetic component. The strongest epidemiologic risk factor is family history of the disease. Familial studies have identified a number of genes contributing to increased risk. Of these, the highly penetrant BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes account for the majority of families in whom disease-causal mutations have been identified. However, mutations in other genes have been associated with predisposition to breast or breast and ovarian cancer including (CHEK2, ATM, PALB2, RAD51C, RAD51D). Together these genes account for less than 20% of excess familial breast cancer risk and do not explain ~50% of high-risk families referred for genetic testing. This significant gap in our understanding of the genetic basis of breast cancer poses a significant barrier to our ability to identify women at increased risk, who would benefit greatly from appropriate clinical management. To identify additional breast cancer predisposition genes whole exome sequencing of familial high-risk breast cancer patients was undertaken. DNA samples from 50 pairs of breast cancer patients from high-risk breast cancer families with no pathogenic mutations in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 breast cancer predisposition genes were subjected to whole exome sequencing. The goal was to select candidate predisposition genes for further validation studies based on sharing of putative protein inactivating mutations among both members of each family and/or the frequency of inactivating mutations among the 50 families.

• MAESTRO-Pool Enables Highly Parallel and Specific Mutation-Enrichment Sequencing for Minimal Residual Disease Detection in Cohort Studies

  MAESTRO-Pool builds upon the technology MAESTRO (Minor Allele Enriched Sequencing Through Recognition Oligonucleotides) by pooling tumor-specific MAESTRO probes from multiple patients and applying these to all samples from all patients. In this study, MAESTRO-Pool was applied to a cohort of 9 melanoma patients where 98 plasma samples were screened for 22,333 mutations. Additionally, a new dynamic minimal residual disease (MRD) caller was used to estimate the likelihood of MRD detection based on the number mutations and cell-free DNA molecules interrogated which allowed each bespoke MRD test to be properly calibrated against false detection. These developments led to sensitive detection in patient-matched samples down to 0.78 parts per million (ppm) while limiting false detection in negative controls to 1/784 (tumor fraction=2.7 ppm). MAESTRO-Pool and the dynamic MRD caller enable a unique blend of sensitivity, specificity, and efficiency, which will improve the ability to detect MRD.The data contained in this repository consists of:Tumor and normal whole genome sequencing data used to call patient-specific tumor mutations and design the MRD Tracker and MAESTRO-Pool fingerprintsMAESTRO-Pool data (enriched duplex sequencing via hybrid capture) of tumor gDNA, normal gDNA and cfDNA MRD Tracker data (duplex sequencing via hybrid capture) of tumor gDNA, normal gDNA and cfDNA
