• Establishment and characterization of circulating tumor cells-derived organoids from metastatic breast cancer patients.

  Over the last decade, molecular stratification and associated therapies have greatly improved the treatment options and prognosis of patients diagnosed with breast cancer. However, metastatic disease remains incurable. Breast cancer cells mainly spread to the lung, liver, bone and brain and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) that migrate in the lymphatics or blood have been implicated as the cellular source of metastasis. Detailed molecular and functional characterization of patient CTCs remains poor due to their low number in patient’s bloodstream. In addition, CTCs are difficult to culture and expand ex vivo. Here we have established a novel method for culturing and unlimitedly expanding breast cancer patient-derived CTCs in CTC-derived organoids (CDOs). Our platform can serve as a foundation for serial longitudinal isolation and expansion of breast cancer cells from peripheral blood. This may enable the identification and functional validation of therapy resistance mechanisms during disease progression, which can be used for new approaches in precision medicine.

• The Formation and Propagation of Human Robertsonian Chromosomes

  Robertsonian chromosomes are a type of variant chromosome found commonly in nature. Present in one in 800 humans, these chromosomes can underlie infertility, trisomies, and increased cancer incidence. Recognized cytogenetically for more than a century, their origins have remained mysterious. Recent advances in genomics have allowed us to assemble three human Robertsonian chromosomes completely. We identify a common breakpoint and epigenetic changes in centromeres that provide insight into the formation and propagation of common Robertsonian translocations. Further investigation of the assembled genomes of chimpanzee and bonobo highlights the structural features of the human genome that uniquely enable the specific crossover event that creates these chromosomes. Resolving the structure and epigenetic features of human Robertsonian chromosomes at a molecular level will pave the way to understanding how chromosomal structural variation occurs more generally, and how chromosomes evolve.

• miRNA expression in response to LPS stimulus in macrophages

  Our lab is currently using macrophages as a model system for understanding how genetic variation modulates the response to external environmental stimulus. We want to extend this beyond regular polyadenylated RNA to small RNAs such as miRNAs. This project would cover the costs of a pilot to study miRNA response to LPS stimulus, and will be performed as part of a rotation project in the lab. We will require a small number of miRNA libraries and a single lane of MiSeq

• Somatic Mutation in Normal Bladder Study

  Adult human somatic tissues are landscapes of mutant clones, but little is known about how these landscapes are shaped by known cancer risk factors. The goal of this study was to determine how the main bladder cancer risk factors (sex and smoking) change the mutational landscape of the normal urothelium. We collected normal urothelium from 45 donors at autopsy by brushing ~2cm² of the surface epithelium in the upper part (dome) and lower part (trigone) of the bladder (79 samples total). To identify mutations with high sensitivity we employed ultradeep (~5000x) DNA error-correcting duplex-sequencing on a panel of 15 protein coding genes and the TERT promoter, previously described to be under positive selection in normal urothelium or relevant to bladder cancer. We identified thousands of clonal driver mutations, which demonstrate pervasive positive selection in the normal urothelium. Males showed a significantly higher number of driver truncating mutations in RBM10, CDKN1A and ARID1A, despite similar rates of non-coding mutations, indicating stronger positive selection and clonal expansion in the male urothelium. We also discovered clonal expansions driven by activating TERT promoter mutations in the normal bladder, which were strongly associated with age and smoking. These results demonstrate that sex and smoking shape the clonal landscape of the normal bladder and indicate that the high mutational content of normal tissues might be leveraged to study the effect of mutations in vivo (i.e. natural saturation mutagenesis). We will deposit in dbGaP de-identified relevant clinical information from the 45 donors and the fastq files derived from duplex sequencing of the 79 samples in the study. We will also deposit fastq files derived from duplex sequencing of 3 control cord blood samples.

• DNA methylation-based prognostic subtypes of chordoma tumors in tissue

  Chordomas are rare malignant bone cancers of the skull-base and spine. Patient survival is variable and not reliably predicted using clinical factors or molecular features. This study identifies prognostic epigenetic chordoma subtypes that are detected noninvasively using plasma methylomes. Methylation profiles of 68 chordoma surgical samples were obtained between 1996 and 2018 across three international centers along with matched plasma methylomes where available. Consensus clustering identified two stable tissue clusters with a disease-specific survival difference that was independent of clinical factors in a multivariate Cox analysis (HR = 14.2, 95%CI: 2.1–94.8, P = 0.0063). Immune-related pathways with genes hypomethylated at promoters and increased immune cell abundance were observed in the poorperforming “Immune-infiltrated” subtype. Cell-to-cell interaction plus extracellular matrix pathway hypomethylation and higher tumor purity were observed in the better-performing “Cellular” subtype. The findings were validated in additional DNA methylation and RNA sequencing datasets as well as with immunohistochemical staining. Plasma methylomes distinguished chordomas from other clinical differential diagnoses by applying fifty chordoma-versusother binomial generalized linear models in random 20% testing sets (mean AUROC = 0.84, 95%CI: 0.52–1.00). Tissue-based and plasma-based methylation signals were highly correlated in both prognostic clusters. Additionally, leave-one-out models accurately classified all tumors into their correct cluster based on plasma methylation data. Here, we show the first identification of prognostic epigenetic chordoma subtypes and first use of plasma methylome based biomarkers to noninvasively diagnose and subtype chordomas. These results may transform patient management by allowing treatment aggressiveness to be balanced with patient risk according to prognosis.

• RB1 Gene Inactivation by Chromothripsis in Human Retinoblastoma

  Retinoblastoma is a rare childhood cancer of the developing retina. Most retinoblastomas initiate with biallelic inactivation of the RB1 gene through diverse mechanisms including point mutations, nucleotide insertions, deletions, loss of heterozygosity and promoter hypermethylation. Recently, a novel mechanism of retinoblastoma initiation was proposed. Gallie and colleagues discovered that a small proportion of retinoblastomas lack RB1 mutations and had MYCN amplification [1]. In this study, we identified recurrent chromosomal, regional and focal genomic lesions in 94 primary retinoblastomas with their matched normal DNA using SNP 6.0 chips. We also analyzed the RB1 gene mutations and compared the mechanism of RB1 inactivation to the recurrent copy number variations in the retinoblastoma genome. In addition to the previously described focal amplification of MYCN and deletions in RB1 and BCOR, we also identified recurrent focal amplification of OTX2, a transcription factor required for retinal photoreceptor development. We identified 10 retinoblastomas in our cohort that lacked RB1 point mutations or indels. We performed whole genome sequencing on those 10 tumors and their corresponding germline DNA. In one of the tumors, the RB1 gene was unaltered, the MYCN gene was amplified and RB1 protein was expressed in the nuclei of the tumor cells. In addition, several tumors had complex patterns of structural variations and we identified 3 tumors with chromothripsis at the RB1 locus. This is the first report of chromothripsis as a mechanism for RB1 gene inactivation in cancer.

• Single-cell RNA-Seq of human lymphoma reveals malignant B cell diversity and patterns of T cell immune checkpoint co-expression

  Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a generally incurable B-cell malignancy which has the potential to transform into highly aggressive lymphomas. Genomic studies indicate it is often a small subpopulation rather than the dominant population in the FL that gives rise to the more aggressive subtype. To resolve the underlying transcriptional networks of follicular B-cell lymphomas at single molecule and cell resolution, we leveraged droplet-based barcoding technology for highly parallel single cell RNA-Seq. We analyzed the transcriptomes from tens of thousands of cells derived from five primary FL tumors. Simultaneously, we conducted multi-dimensional flow cell sorting to validate our characterizing of cellular lineages and critical expressed proteins. For each tumor, we identified multiple cellular subpopulations, matching known hematopoietic lineages. Comparison of gene expression by matched malignant and normal B cells from the same patient revealed tumor-specific features. Malignant B cells exhibited restricted immunoglobulin light chain expression (either Ig Kappa or Ig Lambda), as well the expected upregulation of the BCL2 gene, but also down-regulation of the FCER2, CD52 and MHC class II genes. By leveraging the single-cell resolution on large numbers of cells per patient, we were able to examine tumor-resident T cells. We identified pairs of immune checkpoint molecules that were co-expressed, providing a potentially useful strategy for selection of patient-tailored combination immunotherapies. In summary, massively parallel measurement of single-cell expression in thousands of tumor cells and tumor-resident lymphocytes can be used to obtain a systems-level view of the tumor microenvironment and identify new avenues for therapeutic development.

• Transcriptomic Profiling of Peripheral Immune Cells in a Trial of Ruxolitinib with Nivolumab for Anti-PD1 Non-Responsive cHL

  Treatment with checkpoint inhibitors is effective in multiple cancer types. However, even in cancers with high response rates such as Hodgkin lymphoma, some patients fail to respond or relapse following an initial response to checkpoint inhibitors. In this study, we examined patients enrolled in a clinical trial of ruxolitinib with nivolumab in relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (NCT03681561). Patients relapsed or refractory to anti-PD1 therapy received ruxolitinib for 8 days followed by nivolumab every 4 weeks and continued ruxolitinib twice daily. For this transcriptomic study, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were collected at baseline and 8 days of ruxolitinib therapy and analyzed by single-cell and bulk RNA-sequencing.

• Integrative_genome_profiling_in_AML

  AML emerges as a consequence of accumulating independent genetic aberrations that direct regulation and/or dysfunction of genes resulting in aberrant activation of signalling pathways, resistance to apoptosis and uncontrolled proliferation. Given the significant heterogeneity of AML genomes, AML patients demonstrate a highly variable response rate and poor median survival in response to current chemotherapy regimens. For the past 4 years we have conducted gene expression profiling on purified bone marrow populations equating to normal haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells from healthy subjects and patients with de novo AML in order to identify AML signatures of aberrantly expressed genes in cancer versus normal. We are now applying a series of bioinformatic methodologies combined with clinical and conventional diagnostic data to establish novel genomics strategies for improved prognostication of AML. Additionally, we use our AML signatures to unravel oncogenic signalling pathway activities in AML patients and test inhibitory drugs for these pathways inn preclinical therapeutic programmes. We consider that superimposing GEP and clinical data for our AML patient cohort with additional data on their mutational status will significantly improve the prognostic power of the study as well as unravel yet unknown mutations associated with aberrant signalling activities of oncogenic pathways.

• Expressed Pseudogenes in the Transcriptional Landscape of Human Cancers

  In this study, we describe a systematic analysis of pseudogene 'transcription' from an RNA-Seq resource of 293 samples, from 13 cancer and normal tissue types. We observed a highly prevalent, genome-wide expression of pseudogenes that could be categorized as universally expressed or lineage- and/or cancer-specific. We also explored disease subtype specificity and functions of selected expressed pseudogenes. We provide evidence that transcribed pseudogenes are a significant contributor to the transcriptional landscape of cells and are positioned to play significant roles in cellular differentiation and cancer progression. Our work provides a transcriptome resource that enables high-throughput analyses of pseudogene expression.

• Microbiota 16S sequencing study in NSCLC patients eligible for surgery without neoadjuvant treatment

  18 non-small cell lung cancer patients eligible for surgery without neaodjuvant treatment were included in the study at Centre Jean Perrin (France). Patients did not take any antibiotics, food supplements or immunostimulants 2 months prior to inclusion. During surgery, patients underwent partial or complete lobectomy where samples of non-malignant lung tissue, peritumoural tissue and tumour were resected from the removed lobe. This was preceeded by the washing of the removed lobe and obtaining the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid. These four sample types were analysed by 16S sequencing in 17 from 18 patients. The study is a part of the project "Characterization of Microbiota (Intestinal, From Lungs, and Upper Airways) in Patients With Non-small Cell Lung Carcinoma: Exploratory Study " which is registered under ref. NCT03068663 (clinicaltrials.gov).

• Serum proteomics of aortic diseases

  Aortic diseases are a rare but potentially life-threatening condition. We present a serum proteomic study for a spectrum of aortic diseases including thoracic aortic aneurysms (n = 11), chronic dissections (n = 9), acute aortic dissections (n = 11), and surgically treated dissections (n = 19) as well as healthy controls (n = 10) and patients of coronary heart disease (n = 10) to represent non-aortic cardiovascular disease. In total, we identified and quantified 425 proteins across all 70 samples. The different aortic diseases represented distinguishable proteome profiles. We identified protein clusters that positively or negatively correlate with disease severity, including increase of cytosolic tissue leakage proteins and decrease of components of the coagulation and complement system. Further, we identified a serum proteome fingerprint of acute aortic dissections, consisting, among others, of enriched inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein and members of the S100 protein family. The study underlines the applicability of serum proteomics for the investigation of aortic diseases and highlights the possibility to establish disease-specific prognostic markers.

• Ashkenazi Jewish Leukoencephalopathy

  Genetic leukoencephalopathies (gLEs) are a group of heterogeneous disorders with white matter abnormalities in the central nervous system (CNS). Patients affected with gLEs have brain white matter defects that can be seen in MRI and exhibit variable neurologic phenotypes including motor impairment, hypotonia, pyramidal dysfunction, dystonia and/or dyskinesias, ataxia, seizures, cortical blindness, optic atrophy, and impaired cognitive development. The exact causes in half of gLEs are unknown. We studied three unrelated families affected with an undiagnosed gLE and discovered a homozygous germline mutation c.2536T>G in VPS11 by whole exome sequencing, a gene involved in membrane trafficking and fusion of the lysosomes and endosomes, as a novel cause of a new gLE syndrome.

• Co-amplification of MYC and CCNE1 in aggressive childhood osteosarcoma

  Osteosarcoma, the most common primary malignant tumour of bone, affects children and adults alike. No fundamental biological differences between paediatric and adult osteosarcoma are known. Here, we apply multi-region whole genome sequencing to an index case of a four-year old child whose aggressive tumour harboured high level, focal amplifications of MYC and CCNE1 connected by translocations. We re-analysed copy number readouts of 258 cases of high-grade osteosarcoma from three different cohorts and identified an additional three cases with MYC and CCNE1 co-amplification, confined to children and associated with aggressive disease. Examining the age distribution of MYC and CCNE1 amplicons across all cases revealed a significant enrichment of focal MYC amplification in children, whereas CCNE1 amplification is not strictly restricted to children. Our findings indicate that amplification of the MYC oncogene, known to be associated with a poor outcome, delineates a variant of osteosarcoma specific to childhood. When co-amplified with CCNE1, it may herald an aggressive disease course.
