• Genomic Analyses in Neoadjuvant Immunotherapy-Treated Head and Neck Cancers

  This is a phase 2 multicenter interventional trial involving the preoperative (neoadjuvant) administration of pembrolizumab, an anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (anti-PD-1) agent, to patients with pathologically confirmed, surgically resectable advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Participating centers were Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center, Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center, Washington University and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The trial (NCT02296684) consisted of two cohorts: Cohort 1 enrolled and treated patients received one dose of pembrolizumab prior to surgical resection with curative intent, and adjuvant pembrolizumab was planned for patients with high risk pathological features (positive margins and/or extranodal extension) in the surgical specimen. Cohort 2 enrolled and treated patients received 2 doses of pembrolizumab prior to surgical resection with curative intent. Adjuvant treatment was not dictated by the trial protocol for Cohort 2. The primary endpoint was rate of at least 50% pathological tumor response (pTR), defined as the presence of tumor necrosis/keratinous debris in the tumor bed following neoadjuvant pembrolizumab. pTR was graded as follows: pTR0 (<10%), pTR1 (10-49%) and pTR2 (≥50%). Baseline, pre-treatment tumor biopsy and post-neoadjuvant pembrolizumab surgically resected tumor specimens were dissociated, and CD3+CD45+ cells were analyzed for T cell receptor (TCR) expression and 5' gene expression analysis using single cell sequencing technologies for a subset of patients.

• Genome-Wide Association Study of Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia

  Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is an unpredictable, potentially catastrophic adverse effect resulting from an immune response to platelet factor 4 (PF4)/heparin complexes. We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) with positive functional assay as the outcome. Genetic associations were investigated in a cohort of functional assay-confirmed HIT cases, antibody-positive (function assay-negative) controls, and antibody negative controls. Both PF4-specific enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and serotonin release assay (SRA) were positive in every HIT case. GWAS genotyping was performed at the Laboratory for Genotyping Development, RIKEN Center for Integrative Medical Sciences (IMS). All samples in the discovery and replication cohorts were genotyped using the lllumina® Infinium HumanOmniExpressExome BeadChip, which contains 958,497 markers, including 273,000 functional exonic markers. Quality control was accomplished using sample and marker call rate ≥98%, sex mismatch, duplicate concordance, and removal of related samples through identity by descent. Genomic imputation was performed for samples using Minimac4 and the phase3 v5 reference panel data from the 1000 genomes project. The primary GWAS analysis used multivariable logistic regression assuming an additive genetic model with functional assay-confirmed case status as the outcome. Both PF4/heparin antibody negative and antibody positive controls were considered controls in the primary analysis. Logistic regressions were used to generate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) after adjustment for age, sex, and first three principal components.

• Analysis of the B cell receptor repertoire in six immune-mediated diseases

  Our understanding of the BCR repertoire in the context of immune-mediated diseases is incomplete, and defining this could provide new insights into pathogenesis and therapy. Here, we compared the BCR repertoire in systemic lupus erythematosus, anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis, Crohn’s disease, Behçet’s disease, eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, and immunoglobulin A (IgA) vasculitis by analysing BCR clonality, use of immunoglobulin heavy-chain variable region (IGHV) genes and—in particular—isotype use. An increase in clonality in systemic lupus erythematosus and Crohn’s disease that was dominated by the IgA isotype, together with skewed use of the IGHV genes in these and other diseases, suggested a microbial contribution to pathogenesis. Different immunosuppressive treatments had specific and distinct effects on the repertoire; B cells that persisted after treatment with rituximab were predominately isotype-switched and clonally expanded, whereas the inverse was true for B cells that persisted after treatment with mycophenolate mofetil. Our comparative analysis of the BCR repertoire in immune- mediated disease reveals a complex B cell architecture, providing a platform for understanding pathological mechanisms and designing treatment strategies.

• whole genome sequence data of multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma

  Background & Aims: The differentiation of distinct multifocal hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC): multicentric disease vs. intrahepatic metastases, in which the management and prognosis varies substantively, remains problematic. We aim to stratify multifocal HCC and identify novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers by performing whole genome and transcriptome sequencing, as part of a multi-omics strategy Methods: A complete collection of tumour and somatic specimens (intrahepatic HCC lesions, matched non-cancerous liver tissue and blood) were obtained from representative patientswith multifocal HCC exhibiting two distinct postsurgical courses. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing with genotyping were performed for each tissue specimen to con-trast genomic alterations, including hepatitis B virus integrations, somatic mutations, copy number variations, and structural variations. We then constructed a phylogenetic tree to visualise individual tumour evolution and performed functional enrichment analyses on select differentially expressed genes to elucidate biological processes involved in multifocal HCC development. Multi-omics data were integrated with detailed clinicopathological information to identify HCC biomarkers, which were further validated using a large cohort of HCC patients (n = 174).Results: The multi-omics pro?ling and tumour biomarkers could successfully distinguish the two multifocal HCC types, while accurately predicting clonality and aggressiveness. The dual speci?city protein kinase TTK, which is a key mitotic checkpoint regulator with links to p53 signaling, was further shown to be a promising overall prognostic marker for HCC in the large patient cohort.Conclusions: Comprehensive multi-omics characterisation of multifocal tumour evolution may improve clinical decision-making, facilitate personalised medicine, and expedite identi?cation of novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets in HCC.

• Rare Germline Variants in CDKN2A-Negative Children and Adolescents with Cutaneous Melanoma

  Cutaneous melanoma is a complex disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Inherited susceptibility plays a significant role, involving a combination of high-, intermediate-, and low-penetrance genes. Melanoma in children and adolescents has been speculated to have a stronger genetic component due to the early onset. This study investigates germline variants in early-onset melanoma through exome sequencing of 154 patients in Australia diagnosed with cutaneous melanoma before the age of 20.

• Combinatorial CRISPR screen identifies fitness effects of paralogues FAM50A and FAM50B

  Genetic redundancy has evolved as a way for human cells to survive the loss of genes that are single copy and essential in other organisms, but also allows tumours to survive despite having highly rearranged genomes. In this study we CRISPR screen 1,191 gene pairs, including paralogues and known and predicted synthetic lethal interactions to identify 105 gene combinations whose co-disruption results in a loss of cellular fitness. 27 pairs influence fitness across multiple cell lines including the paralogues FAM50A/FAM50B, two genes of unknown function. Silencing of FAM50B occurs across a range of tumour types and in this context disruption of FAM50A reduces cellular fitness whilst promoting micronucleus formation and extensive perturbation of transcriptional programmes. This dataset includes CRISPR screening of cancer cell lines, RNA sequencing studies of cancer cell lines and also data from the sequencing of tumour xenografts collected from mice.

• Screening Cases of Isolated Dystonia for Variants in CIZ1

  Recently, we have identified that variants in CIZ1 gene is associated with dystonia. To identify the prevalence of CIZ1 mutations in dystonia population, we use High resolution melting (HRM) to examine all the coding sequence in 3976 subjects with primary dystonia as well as 1819 subjects of normal controls. Indels in Q rich region of exon 2 in CIZ1 were identified in 21 subjects with dystonia but only 3 controls (P<0.05). Other single nucleotide change variants were also found in some of the patients which include a novel missense mutation (c.787A>G, p.R263G) found in a female patient with apparently familial dystonia. We confirmed that mutations in CIZ1 could be associated with dystonia but in rare cases.

• Genomic Profiling of Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma

  Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are malignant and highly aggressive hematologic tumors arising from mature post-thymic T cells. The diagnosis of PTCL includes diverse lymphoma subgroups, altogether accounting for about 15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Despite recent advances in uncovering the mutational landscape of PTCLs, the prognoses of most PTCLs remain poor. To overcome the limits of exome sequencing and identify new genomic abnormalities in PTCL, we performed RNAseq and whole genome sequencing. From our analyses, we identified a recurrent in-frame deletion (VAV1 Δ778-786) generated by a focal deletion-driven alternative splicing mechanism as well as novel VAV1 gene fusions (VAV1-THAP4, VAV1-MYO1F, and VAV1-S100A7). These genetic lesions result in increased activation of VAV1 catalytic-dependent (MAPK, JNK) and non-catalytic-dependent (nuclear factor of activated T cells, NFAT) VAV1 effector pathways. These results support an oncogenic role for VAV1 signaling in the pathogenesis of PTCL (Abate et al., 2017). Recently, we have also identified a novel chimeric oncogene, FYN-TRAF3IP2, in the RNA-seq and whole genome sequencing analyses. FYN-TRAF3IP2 leads to aberrant NF-κβ activity downstream of T-cell receptor signaling and induces NF-κβ-driven T-cell transformation when expressed in hematopoietic progenitors in mice. This novel gene fusion supports the oncogenic driver role of NF-κβ signaling in the pathogenesis of PTCL (Kim et al., in review).

• Multi-focal genomic dissection of synchronous primary and metastatic tissue from de novo metastatic prostate cancer

  De novo metastatic prostate cancer is highly aggressive, but the paucity of routinely-collected tissue in this setting has hindered genomic stratification and jeopardizes precision oncology efforts. Here, we leveraged a rare study of surgical intervention in 43 de novo metastatic prostate cancers to assess somatic genotype across 607 synchronous primary and metastatic tissue foci plus circulating tumor DNA. Intra-prostate heterogeneity was pervasive and impacted clinically-relevant genes, resulting in frequent discordance between select primary-restricted foci and synchronous metastases. Additional complexity was driven in several instances by polyclonal metastatic seeding from the reservoir of phylogenetically-related primary populations. When simulating standard clinical practice relying on a single tissue focus, genomic heterogeneity plus highly variable per-sample tumor fraction caused false genotyping of dominant disease. However, in silico modeling demonstrated that analysis of multiple biopsy cores can rescue misassigned somatic genotypes. Our results define the relationship between synchronous treatment-naive primary and metastatic lesions in de novo metastatic prostate cancer and provide a framework for implementing genomics-guided patient management.

• Endocrine therapy reprogramming of breast cancer facilitates metastatic escape via upregulation of P-Rex1/Rac1 signalling

  The estrogen receptor (ER) drives growth in ~70% of breast cancers, and endocrine therapies prevent recurrence. However, 30% of patients recur, with many fatal cases occurring late (after >5 years), presenting a challenge due to their often non-proliferative nature and limited options. To study this, we generated slow-growing resistant cells that form small primary tumours but readily metastasize. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq) revealed that endocrine therapy reprograms these cells, notably upregulating the Rac1 signalling component P-Rex1. We found in clinical cohorts that P-Rex1 in high in ER+ breast cancer. Intravital imaging demonstrated that Rac1 signalling is active in ER+ cells following endocrine therapy. Targeting the Rac1 pathway with small molecule inhibitors (NSC23766, R-ketorolac) reduced survival and motility in resistant cells, inhibited in vivo Rac1 activity, and reduced tumour burden when combined with tamoxifen in a drug-refractory patient-derived xenograft. This work identifies the P-Rex1/Rac1 axis, as a potential therapeutic target for late recurring ER+ breast cancer.

• Phase I Study and Cell-Free DNA Analysis of T-DM1 and Metronomic Temozolomide for Secondary Prevention of HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Brain Metastases

  This study is a phase I trial combining ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) with Temozolomide (TMZ) for the prevention of additional brain metastases after previous occurrence and local treatment in HER2+ breast cancer patients. Twelve patients were enrolled in this study. Data includes whole exome sequencing (WES) from patients' cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma samples. The CSF was collected from each patient at trial entry and after the initial two treatment cycles of TMZ and T-DM1 treatment. Blood was collected through a standard peripheral venipuncture at the following four time points: 1) upon trial entry, 2) after two treatment cycles, 3) the treatment cycle prior to the last follow-up, and 4) most recent follow-up. Whole exome libraries were captured by the SureSelect Human All Exon V8 Kit (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) and sequenced by NovaSeq 6000 S2 Sequencer in paired-end sequencing mode (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA). Gene mutations in DNMT3A, ELP1, NOTCH4, KMT2B, CRLF2, and KCNJ18 were observed in patients' CSF.

• An instructive role for IL7RA in the development of human B-cell precursor leukemia

  Kinase signaling fuels growth of B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL). Yet its role in leukemia initiation is unclear and has not been shown in primary human hematopoietic cells. We previously described activating mutations in interleukin-7 receptor alpha (IL7RA) in poor-prognosis “ph-like” BCP-ALL. Here we show that expression of activated mutant IL7RA in human CD34+ hematopoietic cells creates a preleukemic state in transplanted NOD/LtSz-scid IL2Rγnull mice, characterized by persistence of self-renewing Pro-B cells with non-productive V(D)J gene rearrangements. Preleukemic CD34+CD10highCD19+ cells evolved to a BCP-ALL with spontaneously acquired CDKN2A deletions as commonly observed in primary human BCP-ALL. CRISPR mediated silencing of CDKN2A in primary human CD34+ cells transduced with activated IL7RA resulted in robust development of BCP-ALLs in-vivo. Thus, we demonstrate for the first time that constitutive activation of IL7RA can initiate preleukemia in primary human hematopoietic progenitors and cooperates with CDKN2A silencing in progression into BCP-ALL.

• Genomic profiling for metastatic uveal melanoma from a phase I study of the protein kinase C inhibitor AEB071

  Up to 50% of patients with uveal melanoma (UM) develop metastatic disease, for which there is no effective systemic treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the orally available protein kinase C inhibitor, AEB071, in patients with metastatic UM, and to perform genomic profiling of metastatic tumor samples, with the aim to propose combination therapies. Metastatic UM patients (n=153) were treated with AEB071 in a Phase I, single-arm study. Patients received total daily doses of AEB071 ranging from 450 to 1400 mg. First-cycle dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed in 13 patients (13%). These were most commonly gastrointestinal system toxicities and were dose related, occurring at doses > 700 mg/day. Preliminary clinical activity was observed, with 3% of patients achieving a partial response and 50% with stable disease (median duration 15 weeks). High-depth, targeted next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS) was performed on 89 metastatic tumor biopsy samples. Mutations previously identified in UM were observed, including mutations in GNAQ, GNA11, BAP1, SF3B1, PLCB4, and amplification of chromosome arm 8q. GNAQ/GNA11 mutations were observed at a similar frequency (93%) as previously reported, confirming a therapeutic window for inhibition of the downstream effector PKC in metastatic UM. In conclusion, the protein kinase C inhibitor AEB071 was well tolerated and modest clinical activity was observed in metastatic UM. The genomic findings were consistent with previous reports in primary UM. Together, our data allow envisaging combination therapies of PKC inhibitors with other compounds in metastatic UM.

• Expression of Activation Induced Cytidine Deaminase and Risk of Transformation in Follicular Lymphoma

  It is currently unclear how to identify follicular lymphoma (FL) patients with low disease burden but high risk for early progression. Building on a prior study demonstrating early transformation in FLs with high variant allele frequency (VAF) BCL2 mutations at activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AICDA) sites, we examined 11 AICDA mutational targets, including BCL2, BCL6, PAX5, PIM1, RHOH, SOCS1, and MYC, in a more contemporary cohort of 199 newly diagnosed grade 1 and grade 2 FLs using targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing. BCL2 mutations with VAF >20% occurred in 52% of cases. Among 97 FLs that did not initially receive rituximab-containing therapy, nonsynonymous BCL2 mutations at VAF >20% were associated with shorter, event-free survival (EFS, median 1.4 years with these mutations versus 4.5 years without, p = 0.048), and increased risk of transformation (HR 3.01, 95% CI 1.03-8.77, p = 0.04). Other sequenced genes were less frequently mutated and did not significantly increase the prognostic value of the panel. Across the entire population, BCL2 mutations at VAF >20% were associated with decreased EFS (HR 1.58, 95% CI 1.03-2.40, p = 0.034 after correction for FLIPI and treatment) and decreased overall survival after median 14-year follow-up (HR 1.86, 95% CI 1.07-3.23, p = 0.029). Thus, high VAF BCL2 mutations remain a prognostic factor for FL even in the chemoimmunotherapy era and might need to be considered in future study design.
