• Association studies using the Metabochip array - Samples analysed by the WTCCC (1958 British Birth Cohort (58BC), Hypertension cohort (HT), Type 2 Diabetes Cohort (T2D) and Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) cohort)

  Genomewide association studies (GWAS) have proven a powerful hypothesis-free method to identify common disease-associated variants. Even quite large GWAS, however, have only at best identified moderate proportions of the genetic variants contributing to disease heritability. To provide cost-effective genotyping of common and rare variants to map the remaining heritability and to fine-map established loci, the Metabochip Consortium has developed a 200,000 SNP chip that has been produced in very large numbers for a fraction of the cost of GWAS chips. This chip provides a powerful tool for genetic studies of metabolic, cardiovascular and anthropometric traits (Voight et al., in press PLoS Genetics).

• Genome-wide NanoRCS sequencing of cfDNA and ctDNA from liquid biopsies of healthy individuals and cancer patients

  Levels of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in liquid biopsies may serve as a sensitive biomarker for real-time, minimally-invasive tumor diagnostics and monitoring. However, detecting ctDNA is challenging, as much fewer than 5% of the cell-free DNA in the blood typically originates from the tumor. To detect lowly abundant molecules, extremely sensitive sequencing methods are required. We developed a new technique, NanoRCS, which is based on Oxford Nanopore sequencing of concatenated copies of a single DNA molecule for genome-wide sequencing, and applied this to plasma of healthy individuals, Esophageal cancer patients and Granulosa cell tumor patients and ascites of Ovarian cancer patients. We also sequenced these samples on Illumina Novaseq, to compare the two techniques.

• Whole-exome sequencing identifies new pathogenic germline variants in patients with colorectal polyposis

  Adenomatous polyposis confers an increased risk of colorectal cancer development. Here, we investigated probably underlying predisposition variants in patients with suspected colorectal polyposis without variants in APC and MUTYH genes by whole exome sequencing (WES). Twenty-seven patients were included and subjected to germline WES. After filtering out variants for sequencing quality, variant allele fraction frequency, and population frequency, variants were manually prioritized by the ACMG criteria. Among the variants identified, 17 were classified as pathogenic or likely pathogenic (in 12 patients). This study gives information of probably associated polyposis variants in Brazilian patients without germline pathogenic variants in APC and MUTYH genes, supporting the utilization of next-generation sequencing for screening in these patients beyond these genes.

• RNA sequencing data from patient derived colorectal cancer organoids

  This study aimed to develop NovumRNA, a bioinformatics pipeline designed to predict non-canonical tumor-specific antigens (ncTSAs) from human tumor RNA-sequencing data, potentially broadening the target pool for cancer neo-epitope-based immunotherapies. The pipeline was utilized to analyze RNA-seq data from ten patient-derived colorectal cancer (CRC) organoids, representing seven microsatellite stable (MSS) and three microsatellite instable (MSI) tumors. The goal was to explore the ncTSA landscape in CRC, particularly in MSS cases, which typically exhibit low tumor mutational burden and limited response to current immunotherapies. The study identified comparable ncTSA burdens across MSI and MSS tumors, suggesting new avenues for immunotherapy targeting non-canonical antigens in CRC. NovumRNA is available at: https://github.com/ComputationalBiomedicineGroup/NovumRNA.

• RNAseq samples of patients with anti-PD-1 resistant HNSCC from a non-randomized, open-label phase 1b clinical trial

  Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is an effective treatment for a subset of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC); however, the majority remain refractory. In a nonrandomized, open-label Phase 1b clinical trial, participants with recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) HNSCC who had progressed on ICB were treated with low-dose 5-azacytidine (5-aza) daily for either 5 or 10 days, in combination with durvalumab and tremelimumab. The primary objective was to determine the biologically effective dose of 5-aza. In this study, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed on baseline and on-treatment samples from eight participants, and transcriptomic changes were analyzed to assess the impact of low-dose 5-aza treatment.

• Clinical validity of post-surgery circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in stage III colon cancer patients treated with adjuvant chemotherapy: the PROVENC3 study

  The PROVENC3 study aimed to determine the clinical validity of post-surgery ctDNA testing in patients with stage III colon cancer treated with adjuvant chemotherapy (ACT). Blood was collected pre-surgery, post-surgery and post-adjuvant chemotherapy. Tumor-informed plasma ctDNA detection was performed through integrated whole genome sequencing (WGS) analyses of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor tissue DNA (80x), white blood cell germline DNA (40x) and plasma cell-free DNA (30x). These raw WGS data for 209 patients are shared in .cram format in this EGA submission. For 196/209 of these patients there is overlapping FFPE tumor RNA sequencing data available, shared in .fastq format in this EGA submission.

• DCIS Whole Exome & Whole Genome Sequencing Data

  Primary DCIS and recurrent DCIS/IBC (total n=82, ipsilateral n=78 and contralateral n=4) as well as non-recurrent DCIS (n=32) cases were identified through hospital databases from Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH), Nottingham City Hospital (UK), the LifePool cohort and Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre (PMCC). All cases were micro-dissected from haematoxylin stained sections (range 4-20 sections) by manual micro-dissection to achieve >50% tumour tissue purity. DNA was extracted using the FFPE AllPrep kit (Qiagen, MD, USA). Depending on the success and timing of DNA extraction (Figure 1), cases were analysed by a targeted sequencing panel (n=46, samples pre-2020), whole exome sequencing (WES, n=67), or low-coverage whole genome sequencing (LCWGS). WES: DNA was processed by the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF) using the Twist Bioscience Human Comprehensive Exome v1 or v2 (Twist Bioscience HQ, South San Francisco, CA, USA) according to the Twist Target Enrichment Standard Hybridisation Protocol. Sequencing was performed on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 with 150 bp paired-end reads for a median depth of 101.29x, range: 20.39-247x. Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS): Libraries for four paired samples with matched stromal DNA were made, processed and sequenced by AGRF using the IDT xGen Kit (USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol, aiming to achieve 60x depth for tumour DNA and 30x for matched normal. File type: Paired-end FASTQ.

• Spatial transcriptomic data of breast cancer

  Fastq files from spatial transcriptomic of breast cancer coming from 8 Breast cancer sections. Sample preparation: frozen BC samples were chosen based on tissue structure and RNA quality (RIN > 8). The “Visium Spatial Tissue Optimization Slide and Reagent Kit” (10X Genomics; #PN-1000193) was then used to optimize permeabilization conditions for BC tissues. Briefly, sections were fixed, stained and then permeabilized at different time points to capture mRNA, and the reverse transcription was performed to generate fluorescently labeled cDNA. The permeabilization time that resulted in the highest fluorescence signal with the lowest background diffusion was chosen. The best permeabilization time for BC tissue was 18 min. Cryostat sections of 10 μm of thickness were cut and placed on Visium Spatial Gene Expression slides (10X Genomics, PN-1000184). The slide was incubated for 1 min at 37°C, then fixed with methanol for 30 min at -20°C followed by Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) staining and images were taken under a high-resolution microscope. After imaging, the coverslip was detached by holding the slide in water and the slide was mounted in a plastic slide cassette. The spatial gene expression process, including tissue permeabilization, second strand synthesis and cDNA amplification, was performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions (10X Genomics; #CG000239). cDNA quality was next assessed using Agilent High sensitivity DNA Kit (Agilent, #5067-4626). The spatial gene libraries were constructed using Visium Spatial Library Construction Kit (10X Genomics, PN-1000184).

• Cell motility and migration as determinants of stem cell efficacy

  Limited stem cell migration capacities and undirected homing hamper their therapeutic efficacy. We report here the novel technology to isolate stem cell subpopulations with high migration potential. Hereby, we identified podoplanin-dependent stem cell mobility as important mechanism for their in vivo homing capacities and therapeutic efficacy as validated in preclinical models of Alzheimer´s disease and mouse glioma. In vivo applications of highly migrating stem cells resulted in remarkable improvement of targeted homing and engraftment rates. Moreover, animals receiving highly migrating stem cells showed higher recovery rates compared to unselected stem cells. This novel technology provides useful tool to improve therapeutic efficacy of stem cells and give insights into stem cell subpopulations heterogeneity with the potential of general applicability for cellular therapies.

• Integrative analysis of small cell lung cancer

  Small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive lung tumor subtype. We conducted integrated analysis of genome sequencing, transcriptome, and copy number analysis and found an extremely high mutation rate of 7.4±1 protein-changing mutations per million basepairs. Evidence for inactivation of TP53 and RB1 was found in all sequenced cases. Furthermore, we identified recurrent mutations in CREBBP, EP300, and MLL, observed mutations in PTEN, in SLIT2, and EPHA7, as well as focal amplifications of the FGFR1 locus. As a major feature of SCLC we found mutation in histone modifying genes, observed genome alterations that are therapeutically tractable, and provide a framework for identifying biologically relevant genes in the context of a high mutation rate.
