• iNeuron_ChIPseq

  Characterisation of the chromatin status of induced neurons (iNeurons) generated by overexpression of the Ngn2 transcription factor transgenically in BOB iPS cells at the excitatory cortical neuron and iPSC stages. The aim is to understand the differentiation trajectory and characterise the chromatin status so that we can understand the impact of chromatin on gene expression during this transition. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• RUNX1 mutated families show phenotype heterogeneity and a somatic mutation profile unique to germline predisposed AML

  We present the clinical phenotypes and genetic mutations detected in 10 novel RUNX1 mutated FPD-MM families. Genomic analyses on these families detected two partial gene deletions, three novel mutations and five recurrent mutations as the germline RUNX1 alterations leading to FPD-MM. On 15 individuals, across the 10 families, we performed additional whole exome or myeloid panel sequencing on blood or bone marrow to determine somatic mutations that co-exist with the germline RUNX1 mutation in tumour and pre-leukaemic states.

• Genome-wide association study of cervical cancer in East Asian populations

  The development of cervical cancer is initiated by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and involves both viral and host genetic factors. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of cervical cancer have identified associations in the HLA locus and two loci outside HLA, but the principal genes that control infection and pathogenesis have not been identified. In the present study, we performed GWAS of cervical cancer in East Asian populations, involving 2609 cases and 4712 controls in the discovery stage, 1461 cases and 3295 controls in the follow-up stage.

• Integrative_Oncogenomics_of_multiple_myeloma

  We used targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing of exomes of CD138 purified plasma cells and matched somatic DNA from 53 patients with Multiple Myeloma. 2281 variants were validated by 454 sequencing. The present study will validate an additional 5538 variants by targeted pull-down and sequencing. The normal and tumor samples will be indexed separately and pre-pooled in groups of 10 or 11. The sequence capture will use 5 reactions each for the normals and tumors. All normal samples will then be pooled and go thorugh one lane of HiSeq. Same for the tumors.

• Epigenetics/genetics of the patient-derived xenografts of pediatric T-cell leukemia

  We compared 12 pediatric T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias collected at initial diagnosis and relapse with their corresponding PDX models. The analysis was performed on genomic level (whole genome sequencing (WGS), whole exome sequencing (WES), multiplex ligation probe amplification (MLPA), targeted sequencing) and the epigenetic level (DNA methylation, Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq)). In sum, this study underlines the remarkable genomic stability, and for the first time documents the preservation of the epigenomic landscape in T-ALL-derived PDX models.

• MutWP5__CRUK_Mutographs_of_Cancer__Lung__PD37920__WG_

  Sequencing of LCM-derived microbiopsies from explanted lung from COPD patient. Goal to assess the mutational burden, spectrum, and clonal dynamics within the tissue. Deep sampling throughout multiple regions of the lung will determine whether there are differences in smoking-related mutation burden in different portions of the lung. Whole-genome sequencing will be conducted on samples identified as promising from the initial targeted data. Results from this portion of the study will be compared to other individuals with smoking-related diseases (COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, lung cancer), and normal, non-smoking lungs.

• Circulating tumour DNA abundance and potential utility in de novo metastatic prostate cancer

  Several systemic therapeutic options exist for metastatic castration sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). Circulating tumour DNA can profile metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer and influence treatment decisions, but remains untested in mCSPC. We set out to determine ctDNA abundance at de novo mCSPC diagnosis and whether ctDNA provides complementary clinically relevant information to a prostate biopsy. We collected and sequenced 77 plasma cell-free DNA samples from 53 newly diagnosed patients with mCSPC. Targeted sequencing was also performed on DNA from 48 diagnostic prostate tissue samples.

• Anaplastic_Meningioma_WGS_X10

  Anaplastic meningiomas are a rare, malignant variant of meningioma. At present there is no effective treatment for this cancer. The aim of the study is to identify somatic mutations in anaplastic meningiomas. We plan to sequence a set of 500 known cancer genes in 50 anaplastic meningioma and corresponding peripheral blood DNA samples. Bioinformatics will be used to analyse the results to assess the probability of these mutations being causal and so likely of critical importance for the tumour growth. Identification of these mutations will guide selection of appropriate compounds to effectively treat the disease.

• Finding structural variation from the patient-derived xenografts of pediatric T-cell leukemia at the single-cell level

  In this study, we aimed to identify somatic structural variation of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALLs_ from patient-derived xenografts (PDX) at the single-cell level. For this purpose, we performed strand-specific single-cell sequencing of PDX-derived T-ALL relapse samples from two juvenile patients (P1, P33). To validate structural variation detected via scTRIP, we profiled whole exome sequencing (WES) data from P33 (samples taken during initial disease, remission, relapse), and mate-pair sequencing data from P1 (relapse).
