• Follow-up of Ovarian Cancer Genetic Association and Interaction Studies (FOCI)

  (Excerpted/paraphrased from original grant application): FOCI seeks to expand our understanding of epithelial ovarian cancer through a coordinated and comprehensive approach. Project 1 will focus on discovery, expansion, and replication. By pooling GWAS, we expect to identify new associations and achieve independent replication, explore whether there are risk variants specific for histologic subtypes, and evaluate structural polymorphisms - copy number variants - as risk factors. Finally, Project 1 will leverage the GWAS data to correlate DNA variants with a new endpoint - survival. Project 2 will focus on biological studies designed to help inform interpretation of findings from Project 1. This will include efforts to identify the functional consequences of variants and improve understanding of biological mechanisms. Project 3 will include epidemiologic studies of gene by gene interaction, gene by environment interaction, and development of risk prediction models. The collective effort builds upon the strengths and history of collaboration inherent in the Ovarian Cancer Association Consortium (OCAC), a multidisciplinary group comprised of epidemiologists, genetic epidemiologists, statistical geneticists, molecular and cell biologists and clinicians that was formed in 2005. The FOCI Cohort is utilized in the following dbGaP sub-studies.

• Global Endometrial DNA Methylation Analysis Reveals Insights into mQTL Regulation and Associated Endometriosis Disease Risk and Endometrial Function

  Endometriosis is a common gynecological disorder affecting 11% of reproductive aged women and is a leading cause of pain and infertility. We investigated global DNA methylation (DNAm) profiles in endometrium associated with endometriosis, menstruation, and genetic variation. Endometrial samples were collected from 984 patients with confirmed endometriosis (n=637) and women without endometriosis (n=347). Patients were recruited through the University of California San Francisco, USA, University of Melbourne, Australia, Endometriosis CaRe Centre in Oxford, UK, and EXPPECT Centre, The University of Edinburgh, UK, using the World Endometriosis Research Foundation Endometriosis Phenome and Biobanking Harmonization Project (WERF EPHect) standardized protocols for tissue collection and processing, and participant characteristics and clinical annotation. DNA was extracted from samples and was use to generate DNAm data using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC Beadchip and genotype data using the Axiom Precision Medicine Research array. Estimates from this study suggest that 15.4% of the variation in endometriosis is captured by DNAm. DNAm analysis identified significant differences in DNAm profiles and DNAm networks, associated with endometriosis, endometriosis sub-phenotypes, and menstrual cycle phases. Integration of DNAm and genetic data in a DNAm quantitative trait locus (mQTL) analysis identified 118,185 independent cis-mQTLs including 51 associated with risk of endometriosis highlighting target genes contributing to disease risk. This study identified novel factors affecting epigenetic regulation in endometrium associated with endometriosis risk and disease heterogeneity and provides an important data resource for reproductive medicine. Genotype data generated as part of this study are available on dbGaP and methylation data are available on GEO.

• Nasal MicroRNA during Bronchiolitis and Age 6y Asthma: MARC-35 Cohort

  We analyzed data from the 35th Multicenter Airway Research Collaboration (MARC-35) study to examine the relationship between nasal airway microRNAs (miRNAs) and the risk of developing childhood asthma. MARC-35 is a multicenter prospective cohort study which enrolled infants (age Structured interviews of the parents/guardians were performed by site investigators and clinical details were collected via emergency department and hospital inpatient chart reviews. Following the index hospitalization, trained study personnel conducted telephone interviews with parents/legal guardians at six-month intervals. Participants also underwent nasal swab sampling conducted by trained site personnel during the index bronchiolitis hospitalization and during an in-person follow-up examination at about age 6 years. Total RNA was extracted from nasal swab specimens using Trizol LS reagent (ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) and the Direct-zol RNA Miniprep Kit (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA). Small RNA-seq was performed using the PerkinElmer NEXTFLEX® small RNA-seq v3 kit with Unique Dual Indexes (PerkinElmer, Waltham, MA) and sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq6000 sequencer using an S2 50bp PE Flowcell (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Through dbGaP, limited de-identified phenotypic data (e.g., demographics) and RNA-seq FASTQ files will be made available. Among a cohort of infants hospitalized with bronchiolitis, we applied a small RNA sequencing approach and found miRNAs were associated with asthma risk factors, and highly expressed in lung tissue and immune cells (e.g., TH cells, neutrophils). They also played key roles in mechanisms relating to asthma, such as innate immunity, airway remodeling, and IgE regulation.

• Mayo Clinic - Fecal Microbiota and Adenomas

  Background: Adenomatous polyps are the most common precursor to colorectal cancer (CRC), the second leading cause of cancer death in the United States. We sought to learn more about early events of carcinogenesis by investigating shifts in the gut microbiota of patients with adenomas. Methods: We analyzed 16S rRNA gene sequences from the fecal microbiota of patients with adenomas (n=233) and without (n=547). Results: Multiple taxa were significantly more abundant in patients with adenomas, including Bilophila, Desulfovibrio, pro-inflammatory bacteria in the genus Mogibacterium, and multiple Bacteroidetes species. Patients without adenomas had greater abundances of Veillonella, Firmicutes (Order Clostridia), and Actinobacteria (family Bifidobacteriales). Many of our findings were consistent with previously reported shifts in the gut microbiota of CRC patients. Importantly, the altered adenoma profile is predicted to increase primary and secondary bile acid production, as well as starch, sucrose, lipid, and phenylpropanoid metabolism. Conclusions: These data suggest that diets rich in refined sugar, protein, and lipids may lead to increased bile acid production, creating a colonic environment that promotes the growth of bile-tolerant microbes such as Bilophilia and Desulfovibrio. In turn, these microbes may produce genotoxic or inflammatory metabolites such as H2S and secondary bile acids, catalyzing adenoma development and eventually CRC. Impact: This study suggests a plausible biological mechanism to explain the links between diet, shifts in the microbiota, and CRC. This represents a first step toward resolving the complex interactions that shape the adenoma-carcinoma sequence of CRC and may facilitate personalized therapeutics focused on the microbiota.

• Multiple Myeloma Clinical Targeted Sequencing of Patient Samples

  Purpose: Molecular diagnostics for the risk stratification of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) have languished in the area of cytogenetics and fluorescence in situ hybidization (FISH). However, here we present the case for next generation sequencing of MM patient samples to not only identify high-risk markers, but also mutations and deletions relating to immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), and more importantly to guide the sequencing of immunotherapy regimens in response to intrinsic antigen escape as a means of treatment resistance and relapse. Experimental design: CD138+ cell selected samples (n=134) from bone marrow aspirates from patients with multiple myeloma were sequenced using a targeted panel in a clinical diagnostics laboratory. Data were analyzed for high-risk markers, treatment-related resistance mechanisms, and precision medicine targets to guide the future treatment of patients in the clinic. Results: High-risk markers including t(4;14), t(14;16), t(14;20), gain or amplification 1q, deletion of CDKN2C, and deletion or mutation of TP53 were identified in 15% of newly diagnosed myeloma patient samples. At relapse, alterations in the cereblon degradation pathway were found in 24.3% of IMiD treated patients. Deletions of 4p (CD38) were also enriched in patients who received anti-CD38 treatment (P=0.03) which were mostly monoallelic. Deletions and mutations were detected in TNFRSF17 encoding BCMA in patients treated with anti-BCMA regimens, and the information was used to change the treatment of the patients. Conclusions: Targeted sequencing of multiple myeloma patient diagnostic samples can be used for risk stratification, and also to monitor and adjust treatments as resistance mechanisms evolve.

• Genomic Characterization of Duke Melanoma Brain Metastases

  Previous work has shown that melanoma brain metastases (MBM) have a unique molecular profile compared to extracranial metastases (ECM). Description of the biology of MBM and associations between biological features and clinical outcomes will facilitate the design of rational therapies for patients with MBM. To better characterize the molecular profile of MBM, we conducted whole exome sequencing (WES) and total RNA sequencing on MBM tissues obtained from an independent cohort of 14 patients from Duke University Medical Center. This cohort adds valuable patient samples to the field and enables strengthened investigation of somatic mutations and gene expression profiles within and between cohorts. The mutational landscape and gene expression of MBM from the Duke cohort resembled those previously reported in a previously published dataset of WES and RNA sequencing in MBM and matched ECM tissues from UT MD Anderson Cancer Center (Fischer et al., 2019 30787016). Duke MBM demonstrated similar rates of mutations in genes associated with melanoma, including BRAF, NRAS, and PTEN, as the MD Anderson cohort. Immune populations in MBM were similar between Duke and MD Anderson MBM, though Duke samples demonstrated more resting CD4+ memory T cells. The ratio of M2 to M1 macrophages in the Duke cohort was similar to that of the MD Anderson cohort. In MBM, a higher M2:M1 ratio may contribute to an immune-suppressive tumor microenvironment. Sequencing data and sample attributes from MBM tissues obtained from 14 patients from Duke University Medical Center will be available through dbGaP.

• Target sequencing of 27 cancer-predisposing genes in Japanese colorectal cancer patients

  Background: National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recently recommended germline genetic testing for all pancreatic cancer patients. However, the genes targeted by genetic testing and the feasibility of selecting patients likely to carry pathogenic variants have not been sufficiently verified. The purpose of this study was to genetically characterize Japanese patients and examine whether the current guideline is applicable in this population. Methods: Using targeted sequencing, we analyzed the coding regions of 27 cancer-predisposing genes in 1,005 pancreatic cancer patients and 23,705 controls in Japan. We compared the pathogenic variant frequency between cases and controls and documented the demographic and clinical characteristics of carrier patients. We then examined if it was possible to use machine learning to predict carrier status based on those characteristics. Findings: We identified 205 pathogenic variants across the 27 genes. Pathogenic variants in BRCA2, ATM, and BRCA1 were significantly associated with pancreatic cancer. Characteristics associated with carrier status were inconsistent with previous investigations. Machine learning classifiers had a low performance in determining the carrier status of pancreatic cancer patients, while the same classifiers, when applied to breast cancer data as a positive control, had a higher performance that was comparable to that of the NCCN guideline. Interpretation: Our findings support the clinical significance of multigene panel testing for pancreatic cancer and indicate that at least 3.4% of Japanese patients may respond to poly (ADP ribose) polymerase inhibitor treatments. The difficulty in predicting carrier status suggests that offering germline genetic testing for all pancreatic cancer patients is reasonable.

• Comprehensive genomic analysis of colorectal cancer with microsatellite instability

  Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancers (CRCs) account for 10?15% of all CRCs. MSI-H CRC is characterized by a large number of somatic insertions/deletions (indels) resulting from either mutations within or the silencing of genes involved in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system. A subset of MSI-H CRCs is associated with Lynch syndrome (LS), which is caused by germline MMR gene mutations, leading to hereditary cancer predisposition. Other than frequent somatic mutations in BRAF, the transformation mechanisms underlying MSI-H CRC are largely unknown. Here, genomic DNA from 149 MSI-H CRC specimens was analyzed using whole-exome sequencing, and 93 of these samples were subjected to genome-wide DNA methylation analysis. Furthermore, transcriptome sequencing was conducted on 111 samples. Genomic/epigenomic analyses identified three subgroups within our cohort: (1) MSI-H CRCs with silenced MLH1 that share frequent indels, a specific mutation/copy number alteration profile and promoter DNA methylation; (2) LS-associated MSI-H CRCs with MMR genes containing germline mutations; and (3) the remaining MSI-H CRCs with frequent somatic disruptive mutations of MLH1 or MSH2. Unexpectedly, only the first group was found to frequently carry fusion-type protein kinases (15% of this group and 9.9% of all MSI-H CRCs) that are promising therapeutic targets. Thus, MSI-H CRCs can be classified into three subgroups with distinctive genomic as well as epigenomic statuses, probably reflecting the oncogenic processes of these cancers. Fusion-type kinases are enriched in MSI-H CRCs, shedding new light on potential treatment strategies.

• Frequent post-treatment monitoring of colorectal cancer using individualized ctDNA validated by multi-regional molecular profiling

  Purpose: Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis has been proposed as an approach for prediction of post-treatment patient outcomes. However, whether a single platform will provide optimal information in all patients or alternatively a patient-specific monitoring approach based on assessment of mutations in the primary tumor from that patient remains an urgent question. Experimental Design: We conducted multiregional sequencing of 42 specimens of 14 colorectal tumors (Stage III and more) from 12 patients, including two double cancer cases, to identify the full spectrum of mutational heterogeneity and identify aberrations that could be used to develop personalized ctDNA assays. Results: ?Founder? mutations that occur in all regions of the sample were identified in 12/14 (85.7%) tumors. Subsequent phylogenetic analysis of each tumor showed that 12/14 tumors (85.7%) carried at least one ?truncal? mutation. Most founder and truncal mutations exhibited higher variant allele frequency (VAF) than ?non-founder? and ?branch? mutations. In addition, both founder and truncal mutations were more likely to be detected as ctDNA than non-founder and branch mutations. Synchronized ctDNA dynamics of multiple mutations suggested those mutations from the same clonal origin. For 10/12 patients (83.3%) with nearly 1,000 days of post-operative observation, the validity of frequent personalized ctDNA monitoring was confirmed in terms of early relapse prediction, treatment efficacy, and non-relapse corroboration. Conclusions: Personalized ctDNA monitoring based on aberrations with a high VAF in the primary tumor site should be explored in larger prospective clinical trials to determine the full clinical validity.

• DNA demethylation is associated with malignant progression of low-grade gliomas

  To elucidate the mechanisms of tumor progression is key to discovering strategies for treating patients with lower-grade glioma. Thus to characterize the changes in the molecular profile during malignant progression, we performed methylation array analysis (122 tumors), whole-exome sequencing (36 tumors and matched normal samples), and RNA sequencing (31 tumors). This cohort included 24 matched pairs of initial lower-grade gliomas and recurrent tumors, most of which showed malignant progression when they recurred. Nearly half of IDH-mutant glioblastomas that had progressed from lower-grade gliomas exhibited characteristic partial DNA demethylation in previously methylated genomic regions of their corresponding initial tumors, which had the glioma CpG island methylator phenotype (G-CIMP). In these glioblastomas, cell cycle-related genes were upregulated, RB and PI3K-AKT pathway genes were frequently altered. Notably, bioinformatics analysis revealed that late-replicating domain was significantly enriched in the demethylated regions that were mostly located in non-regulatory regions, suggesting that the loss of DNA methylation during malignant transformation may involve mainly passive demethylation due to a delay in maintenance of methylation during accelerated cell division. Nonetheless, a limited number of genes including IGF2BP3, which potentially drives cell proliferation, were presumed to be upregulated due to demethylation of their promoter. Thus, cell proliferation was further promoted by passive demethylation in the promoter region of these oncogenic genes. Our data indicated that demethylation of the G-CIMP profile found in a subset of recurrent gliomas reflects accelerated cell divisions accompanied by malignant transformation. Oncogenic genes activated by such epigenetic change represent potential therapeutic targets.

• Evolution of an adenomacarcinoma in response to selection by targeted kinase inhibitors

  Background - Adenocarcinomas of the tongue are rare and represent the minority (20-25%) of salivary gland tumors affecting the tongue. We investigated the utility of massively parallel sequencing to characterize an adenocarcinoma of the tongue, before and after treatment. Results - In the pre-treatment tumor we identified 7,629 genes within regions of copy number gain. 1,078 genes exhibited increased expression relative to the blood and unrelated tumors and four genes contained somatic protein-coding mutations. Our analysis suggested the tumor cells were driven by the RET oncogene. Genes whose protein products are targeted by the RET inhibitors sunitinib and sorafenib correlated with being amplified and or highly expressed. Consistent with our observations administration of sunitinib was associated with stable disease lasting 4 months, after which the lung lesions began to grow. Administration of sorafenib and sulindac provided disease stabilization for an additional 3 months after which the cancer progressed and new lesions appeared. A recurring metastasis possessed 7,288 genes within copy number amplicons, 385 genes exhibiting increased expression relative to other tumours and 9 new somatic protein coding mutations. The observed mutations and amplif ications were consistent with therapeutic resistance arising through activation of the MAPK and AKT pathways. Conclusions - We conclude that complete genomic characterization of a rare tumour has the potential to aid in clinical decision making and identifying therapeutic approaches where no established treatment protocols exist. These results also provide direct in-vivo genomic evidence for mutational evolution within a tumor under drug selection and potential mechanisms of drug resistance accrual.

• Immunodeficiency syndrome caused by LCP1 mutations

  Severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) is characterized by neutropenia, recurrent infections and an increased leukemia risk. Multiple genetic defects underlying SCN have been identified, but a genetic diagnosis is still lacking in a significant proportion of patients. Here, we report three independent pedigrees with autosomal dominant variants in LCP1. Variants c.740-1G>T and c.740-20_744del resulted in the same alternatively spliced RNA product, causing an in-frame deletion (p.A247_E254del). Variant c.509C>T in the third pedigree resulted in p.S170L. Variant carriers suffer from neutropenia, poor or complete lack of response to G-CSF treatment, and variable degrees of lymphopenia. Patients with A247_E254del presented with tetraploid cells in the bone marrow, indicative of disturbed cytokinesis. In one of these kindreds, two individuals developed acute leukemia. G-CSF non-responsiveness and defective cell cycling were repaired upon correction of the LCP1 A247_E254del variant in patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells, supporting the monogenic origin of the disease. Indicative of their gain-of-function, both A247_E254del and S170L variants increased F-actin bundling and formation of abnormal protrusions. Single-cell transcriptome analysis of A247_E254del bone marrow-derived hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) showed deregulation of signaling pathways controlling mitosis in multi-lineage and lymphoid-primed HSPC subsets. We conclude that activating LCP1 variants cause a new autosomal dominant hematopoietic disorder. Depending on the consequences of the LCP1 variants for protein structure, patients may suffer from G-CSF refractory severe neutropenia, lymphopenia, defective cytokinesis and predisposition to leukemia.

• Circulating Tumor DNA Analysis in ERBB2-Amplified Colorectal Cancer: Biomarker Analysis of the MyPathway Trial

  Combination of two HER2-directed antibodies, pertuzumab and trastuzumab (P+T), has antitumor activity in HER2-positive colorectal cancer (CRC). Although liquid biopsies are increasingly being used in clinical oncology, the association between tumor and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) ERBB2 status and ctDNA monitoring for early response and resistance are unknown. Eighty-five patients with ERBB2-amplified and/or overexpressed CRC were treated with P+T in the MyPathway trial; 42 had ctDNA testing at Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1), and 38 had longitudinal plasma tested for ctDNA. We analyzed the ctDNA vs tissue ERBB2 concordance, genomic co-alterations, and ctDNA dynamics and association with response. Forty-one (98%) of 42 patients had genomic alterations detected in ctDNA at C1D1, and 29 (69%) had ERBB2 amplification in ctDNA. There was a strong correlation between ERBB2 copy number on next-generation sequencing in tissue and C1D1 ERBB2 ctDNA copy number. Thirty-seven percent achieved a molecular response by C3D1 on P+T, which was associated with prolonged progression-free survival and overall survival (OS). CDKN2A and KRAS mutations were associated with shorter OS, and a trend was seen with PIK3CA mutations. Several emerging co-alterations were identified in ctDNA at progression, including in the MAPK and PI3K pathways and other tyrosine receptor kinases. ctDNA can detect ERBB2 amplification in many, but not all, patients with ERBB2 amplification detected in tumor samples. ctDNA molecular response was associated with better survival, and ctDNA co-alterations may offer insights into mechanisms of intrinsic and acquired resistance.

• Impact of Glycolysis Inhibition on the Epigenome of Synovial Fluid T Cells in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

  Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) encompasses a group of childhood-onset autoimmune conditions characterized by joint inflammation and mononuclear cell infiltration, especially of activated CD4+ memory/effector T (Tmem/Teff) cells in synovial fluid (SF). JIA CD4+ T cells exhibit a distinct inflammation-associated epigenomic profile, though the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigates the role of glycolysis in shaping the epigenomic landscape of JIA SF CD4+ T cells, with a focus on H3K27ac histone modifications. Using an ex vivo model of antigen stimulation, CD4+ T cells were isolated from peripheral blood (PB) of healthy controls (HC) and synovial fluid from JIA patients. Cells were activated in vitro with anti-CD3/CD28 for 24 hours, and changes in H3K27ac were assessed by chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq). To explore the specific role of glycolysis, cells were also treated with 2-deoxyglucose (2DG), an inhibitor of glucose-6-phosphate production. This inhibition impacted both H3K27ac acetylation patterns and gene expression associated with the activated epigenomic regions. Additionally, HC CD4+ T cells were activated in vitro in the presence of 30% SF or 30% plasma from JIA patients. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to examine SF-induced transcriptional changes, providing insight into the metabolic dysregulation and epigenomic alterations observed in JIA SF CD4+ T cells. This dataset includes ChIP-seq and RNA-seq data that collectively advance our understanding of how glycolysis and the SF environment contribute to the epigenetic and transcriptional regulation in JIA CD4+ T cells.

• Pediatric Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Whole Exome Sequencing

  BACKGROUND: Pediatric papillary thyroid carcinoma (PPTC) is distinct from adult-onset disease. Despite higher rates of regional and distal metastases and more frequent recurrence, there is, paradoxically, a highly favourable prognosis. Historically, only 40-50% of childhood PTC are driven by genomic variants common to adult PTC, while the oncogenic drivers in the remainder are unknown. METHODS: Fifty-two PPTCs were genotyped by candidate gene testing, followed, in a subset (n=32), by whole exome (WES) and transcriptome sequencing (RNASeq) to identify oncogenic variants in driver-unknown tumors and to explore gene expression patterns. FINDINGS: Thirty-one tumors (60%) carried variants identified by candidate gene testing, specifically: BRAFV600E(22%), NRASQ61R(2%), RET-CCDC6(19%), RET-NCOA4(15%) and PAX8-PPARG. Among the 21 remaining tumors with negative first-line genotyping, oncogenic variants were identified in 19 (90%). These were enriched with oncogenic fusions, with 11 non-recurrent fusion transcripts identified, including two that had not been previously described: STRN-RET and TG-PBF. Most fusions were associated with 3’ receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) moieties: RET, MET, ALK and NTRK3. Gene expression analysis defined three distinct clusters, which demonstrated differing expression of genes involved in thyroid differentiation and MAPK signaling. INTERPRETATION: Exome and transcriptome-wide sequencing identify genomic drivers of PPTC in 98% of tumors, whereas conventional genotyping leaves many tumors genetically unexplained. PPTC is driven, in the majority of cases, by oncogenic fusion transcripts involving one of a limited number of RTKs. These observations have broad implications for diagnostic testing and for therapeutic options in children with advanced disease.

• Study of the rare and low frequency variants in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean population

  The Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean (SLSJ) region is located in northeastern Quebec and is known for its unique demographic history and founder effect. Since founder populations are enriched with population-specific variants, we characterized the variants distribution in SLSJ and compared it with four European populations (Finnish, Sweden, United Kingdom and France), of which the Finnish population is another founder population. Targeted sequencing of the coding and non-coding immune regulatory regions of the SLSJ asthma familial cohort and the four European populations were performed. Rare and low-frequency coding and noncoding regulatory variants identified in the SLSJ population were then investigated for variant- and gene-level associations with asthma and allergy related-traits (eosinophil percentage, immunoglobulin (Ig)E levels and lung function). Our data showed that (1) rare or deleterious variants were not enriched in the two founder populations as compared to the three non-founder European populations; (2) a larger proportion of founder population-specific variants occurred with higher frequencies; and (3) low-frequency variants appeared to be more deleterious. Furthermore, a rare variant, rs1386931, located in the 3’UTR of CXCR6 and intron of FYCO1 was found to be associated with eosinophil percentage. Gene-based analyses identified NRP2, MRPL44 and SERPINE2 to be associated with various asthma and allergy related traits. Our study demonstrated the usefulness of using a founder population to identify new genes associated with asthma and allergy-related traits; thus better understand the genes and pathways implicated in pathophysiology.

• Oncogenic fate conversion by PRDM16s causes acute myeloid leukemia

  Oncogenic mutations confer aberrant replicative capacity to cells with little or no replicative capacity, generating cancer stem cells that perpetuate the tumor through extensive self-replication and differentiation blockade. However, whether oncogenes disrupt the cellular identity ofcancer stem cell by altering the developmental potential is unknown. Fate conversion has been demonstrated by ectopic expression of master transcriptional regulators, such as PU.1 and C/EBP alpha that confers myeloid cell fate to other cell types, and PRDM16 that confers brown adipose fate to white adipocytes or myoblasts. Here we show that a transcriptional regulator overexpressed in human myeloid malignancies, PRDM16s, causes oncogenic fate conversion, by transforming cells fated to form platelets and erythrocytes into myeloid leukemia-initiating cells (LICs). Prdm16s expression in hematopoietic progenitor cells caused a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)-like disease that progressed to acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). The myeloid diseases caused by Prdm16s exhibited expansion of megakaryocyte-erythroid progenitors (MEPs) but not granulocyte-macrophage progenitors. MEPs from Prdm16s-induced leukemia possessed LIC potential, and expression of Prdm16s in normal MEPs was sufficient to convert them to myeloid LICs and blocked megakaryocytic/erythroid potential. Prdm16s induced the expression of myeloid master regulators, including PU.1 and C/EBP alpha, by interacting with their super enhancers. Ablation of myeloid master regulators attenuated the myeloid potential and reinstalled the megakaryocytic/erythroid potential of leukemic-MEPs in mouse models and in human AML with PRDM16 rearrangement. Our study demonstrates that oncogenic Prdm16 expression converts the fate of MEPs to a malignant myeloid fate by activating myeloid master transcription factors.

• RB Loss in Resistant EGFR Mutant Lung Adenocarcinomas that Transform to Small Cell Lung Cancer

  Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective treatments for non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. However, they do not lead to cures, and, on average, relapse occurs typically occurs afterafter an average of one year of continuous treatment. In a subset of patients, aA fundamental histological transformation from NSCLC to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is observed in a subset of the resistant cancers, but the molecular changes associated with this transformation remain unknown. Analysis of a cohort of tumor samples and cell lines derived from resistant EGFR mutant patients with SCLC transformation revealed that RB is lost in 100% of these SCLC transformed cases, but rarely in those that remain NSCLC. Global changes in gene expression, including increased neuroendocrine marker expression and absence of EGFR expression, are observed in resistant EGFR mutant cancers that transformed to SCLC. Consistent Further, with their similarities to classical SCLC at the genetic and gene expression levelincreased neuroendocrine marker and decreased EGFR expression as well as greater sensitivity to BCL2 family inhibition are observed in resistant SCLC transformed cancers compared to resistant NSCLCs. , cell lines derived from resistant EGFR mutant SCLC biopsies are substantially more sensitive to Bcl-2 family inhibition with ABT-263 compared to those derived from resistant EGFR mutant NSCLCs. Together, these findings suggest that despite developing initially as EGFR mutant adenocarcinomas, this subset of resistant cancers ultimately adopt many of the molecular and phenotypic characteristics of classical SCLC.

• Neoadjuvant immunotherapy leads to pathological responses in MMR proficient and MMR deficient early stage colon cancers

  PD-1 plus CTLA-4 blockade is highly effective in advanced-stage, mismatch repair (MMR)-deficient (dMMR) colorectal cancers, yet not in MMR-proficient (pMMR) tumors. We postulated a higher efficacy of neoadjuvant immunotherapy in early-stage colon cancers. In the exploratory NICHE study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03026140), patients with dMMR or pMMR tumors received a single dose of ipilimumab and two doses of nivolumab before surgery, the pMMR group with or without celecoxib. The primary objective was safety and feasibility; 40 patients with 21 dMMR and 20 pMMR tumors were treated, and 3 patients received nivolumab monotherapy in the safety run-in. Treatment was well tolerated and all patients underwent radical resections without delays, meeting the primary endpoint. Of the patients who received ipilimumab + nivolumab (20 dMMR and 15 pMMR tumors), 35 were evaluable for efficacy and translational endpoints. Pathological response was observed in 20/20 (100%; 95% exact confidence interval (CI): 86–100%) dMMR tumors, with 19 major pathological responses (MPRs, ≤10% residual viable tumor) and 12 pathological complete responses. In pMMR tumors, 4/15 (27%; 95% exact CI: 8–55%) showed pathological responses, with 3 MPRs and 1 partial response. CD8+PD-1+ T cell infiltration was predictive of response in pMMR tumors. These data indicate that neoadjuvant immunotherapy may have the potential to become the standard of care for a defined group of colon cancer patients when validated in larger studies with at least 3 years of disease-free survival data.

• Benchmarking for alignment and variant calling

  Background: Lung cancer is a heterogeneous disease and the primary cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Somatic mutations, including large structural variants, are important biomarkers in lung cancer for selecting targeted therapy. Genomic studies in lung cancer have been conducted using short-read sequencing. Emerging long-read sequencing technologies are a promising alternative to study somatic structural variants, however there is no current consensus on how to process data and call somatic events. In this study, we preformed whole genome sequencing of lung cancer and matched non-tumour samples using long and short read sequencing to comprehensively benchmark three sequence aligners and six structural variant callers comprised of four generic callers (Sniffles2, cuteSV, SVIM and DELLY in generic mode) and two somatic callers (nanomonsv and DELLY in somatic modes). Results: Different combinations of aligners and variant callers influenced somatic structural variant detection. The choice of caller had a significant influence on somatic structural variant detection in terms of variant type, size, sensitivity, and accuracy. The performance of each variant caller was assessed by comparing to somatic structural variants identified by short read sequencing. When compared to somatic structural variants detected with short read sequencing, more events were detected with long read sequencing. The mean recall of somatic variant events identified by short read sequencing was higher for the somatic callers (64%) than generic callers (52%), with nanomonsv (69%) showing the best performance. Conclusion: Long read sequencing can identify somatic structural variants. The longer reads have the potential to improve our understanding of cancer development and inform personalized cancer treatment.

• Transcriptome profiling of megakaryocytes and platelets: application to GP9- and IKZF5-related thrombocytopenia

  Platelets are anucleate cells produced in the bone marrow and derived from large progenitor cells called megakaryocytes (MKs). Platelets receive RNA transcripts from their progenitorial MKs during thrombopoiesis. However, the correspondence between platelet and MK transcriptomes is poorly understood, particularly in the context of germline mutations that cause platelet formation defects or thrombocytopenia. We have studied the effects of two such mutations on MK and platelet transcriptomes. We generated immortalized MK cell line (imMKCL)-based models of Bernard-Soulier syndrome and IKZF5-related thrombocytopenia. MKs derived from imMKCLs with either a homozygous deletion of GP9 (GP9-/-) or a heterozygous Y121F variant in IKZF5 (IKZF5WT/Y121F) exhibited reduced proplatelet formation (reductions of 96% and 57%, respectively). Platelets from patients with either GP9-/- or IKZF5WT/Y121F genotypes had broad transcriptomic dysregulation, suggesting that (pro)platelet formation defects due to mutations in glycoprotein receptor and transcription factor genes such as GP9 and IKZF5 affect the trafficking of transcripts from MKs into platelets. RNA-seq data from MKs at four stages of differentiation revealed widespread but distinct changes in expression over time between the GP9-/- and the IKZF5WT/Y121F genotypes. Dysregulated genes in GP9-/- MKs were enriched for RNA metabolism and actin/tubulin folding pathways while those in IKZF5WT/Y121F MKs were enriched for cell cycle pathways. Most of these genes were also dysregulated in the platelets of patients with the corresponding diseases. Our results suggest that patients with inherited forms of thrombocytopenia present with a transcript trafficking defect during platelet formation.

• Coding and regulatory somatic profiling of triple-negative breast cancer in Sub-Saharan African patients

  The burden of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) may be shaped by genetic factors, particularly inherited and somatic mutation profiles. However, data on this topic remain limited, especially for the African continent, where a higher TNBC incidence is observed. In the age of precision medicine, cataloguing TNBC diversity in African patients becomes imperative. We performed whole exome sequencing, including untranslated regions, on 30 samples from Angola and Cape Verde, which allowed to ascertain on potential regulatory mutations in TNBC for the first time. A high somatic burden was observed for the African cohort, with 86% of variants being so far unreported. Recurring to predictive functional algorithms, 17% of the somatic single nucleotide variants were predicted to be deleterious at the protein level, and 20% overlapped with candidate cis-regulatory elements controlling gene expression. Several of these somatic functionally-impactful mutations and copy number variation (mainly in 1q, 8q, 6 and 10p) occur in known BC- and all cancer-driver genes, enriched for several cancer mechanisms, including response to radiation and related DNA repair mechanisms. TP53 is the top of these known BC-driver genes, but our results identified possible novel TNBC driver genes that may play a main role in the African context, as TTN, CEACAM7, DEFB132, COPZ2 and GAS1. These findings emphasize the need to expand cancer omics screenings across the African continent, the region of the globe with highest genomic diversity, accelerating the discovery of new somatic mutations and cancer-related pathways.

• Breast cancer DNA repair

  Tumors of germline BRCA1/2 mutated carriers show homologous recombination (HR) deficiency (HRD), resulting in impaired DNA double strand break (DSB) repair and high sensitivity to Poly-(ADP-Ribose)-Polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. Although this therapy is expected to be effective beyond germline BRCA1/2 mutated carriers, a robust validated test to detect HRD tumors is lacking. In the present study we therefore evaluated a functional HR assay exploiting the formation of RAD51 foci in proliferating cells after ex vivo irradiation of fresh breast cancers (BrC) tissue: the RECAP test.Methods Fresh samples of 170 primary BrC were analyzed using the RECAP test. The molecular explanation for the HRD phenotype was investigated by exploring BRCA deficiencies, mutational signatures, tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) and microsatellite instability (MSI).Results RECAP was completed successfully in 148 out of 170 samples (87%). 24 tumors showed HRD (16%), while 6 tumors were HR intermediate (HRi) (4%). HRD was explained by BRCA deficiencies (mutations, promoter hypermethylation, deletions) in 16 cases. Several non-BRCA deficient HRD tumors showed BRCAness mutational signatures, suggesting that they are also bona fide HRD cases. HRD tumors showed an increased incidence of high TIL counts (p=0.023) compared to HR proficient (HRP) tumors and MSI was more frequently observed in the HRD group (2/20, 10%) than expected in BrC (1%) (p=0.017).Conclusion The RECAP test is a robust assay detecting both BRCA1/2 deficient and BRCA1/2 proficient HRD tumors, suggesting that this test identifies approximately 50% more patients that may benefit from PARPi treatment than BRCA gene testing only.

• Biallelic tumor suppressor loss and DNA repair defects in de novo small cell prostate cancer

  Small cell prostatic carcinoma (SCPC) is an aggressive pathology that is managed similar to small cell lung cancer. SCPC can evolve from prostatic adenocarcinoma in response to androgen deprivation therapy but in rare cases is present at initial cancer diagnosis. The molecular etiology of de novo SCPC is incompletely understood due to the scarcity of tumor tissue and the brief life expectancy of patients. Through a retrospective search of our regional oncology pharmacy database, we identified 18 patients diagnosed with de novo SCPC between 2004 and 2017. Ten patients had pure SCPC pathology and the remainder had some admixed adenocarcinoma foci, but all were treated with first line platinum-based chemotherapy. Median overall survival was 28 months. We performed targeted DNA sequencing, whole exome sequencing and mRNA profiling on formalin-fixed paraffin embedded archival tumor tissue. We observed frequent biallelic deletion and/or mutation of tumor suppressors TP53, RB1 and PTEN, similar to treatment related SCPC. Indeed, at the RNA level pure de novo SCPC closely resembled treatment-related SCPC. However, five patients had biallelic loss of DNA repair genes including BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM and MSH2/6: potentially underlying the high genomic instability of this rare disease variant. Two patients with pure de novo SCPC harbored ETS gene rearrangements to androgen-driven promoters, consistent with evolution of de novo SCPC from an androgen-driven ancestor. Overall, our results reveal a highly aggressive molecular landscape underlies this unusual pathologic variant, and propose opportunities for targeted therapy strategies in a disease with few treatment options.

• Open_Targets_020_Epigenomes_of_Cell_Lines

  There is currently a drive to establish cell based assay systems of greater human biological and disease relevance through the use of well characterised transformed cell lines, primary cells and complex cellular models (e.g. co-culture, 3D models). However, although the field is gaining valuable experience in running more non-standard & complex cell assays for target validation and compound pharmacology studies, there is the lack of a systematic approach to determine if this expansion in cell assay models is reflected in increased human biological and disease relevance. The increasing wealth of publically available transcriptomic, and epigenome (ENCODE and Epigenome Roadmap) data represents an ideal reference mechanism for determining the relationship between cell types used for target & compound studies to primary human cells and tissues from both healthy volunteers & patients. The CTTV020 epigenomes of cell line project aims to generate epigenetic and transcriptomic profiles of cell lines and compare these with existing and newly generated reference data sets from human tissue and cell types. The aim is to identify assay systems which will provide greater confidence in translating target biology and compound pharmacology to patients. Multiple cell types commonly used within research have been grouped according to biology. Examples include erythroid, lung epithelial, hepatocyte cell types and immortalised models of monocyte / macrophage biology. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• Lactate metabolism in cancer stem cell fate regulation

  Tumors arise as a result of uncontrolled cell proliferation driven by mutations in the signaling pathways that regulate the balance between cell division and differentiation. Despite of that, in the tumor, cancer stem cells seem to retain their capability to differentiate, which can lead to differential chemotherapy response. We previously showed that intestinal stem cells and differentiated cells display specific metabolic features and that they interact through metabolites. Moreover, we found that altering mitochondrial metabolism is sufficient to lead and define stem cell differentiation. In cancer, cellular metabolism is highly derailed. However, how metabolic changes in the cancer cell contribute to cell fate decisions remains unknown. Recently, the crosstalk between metabolism and epigenetics has emerged as one of the players in tumor development. Here we aim to address the impact of the altered metabolism of cancer cells on their epigenome as a regulatory axis of cell identity and fate. We use human-derived tumor organoids where we introduce genetic encoded fluorescent-based reporters to visualize cell identity and metabolism at single cell level. We combine 4D live imaging with a recently developed machine learning method to re-construct cell-lineages, trace stem cell state and metabolic changes during tumor organoid development. We find that, mimicking the tumor metabolic microenvironment (Warburg effect-driven low-glucose high-lactate) leads to changes cellular metabolism and histone acetylation. Strikingly, these alterations provoke profound changes in tumor development by increasing the population of cancer stem cells and their proliferation and differentiation dynamics.

• Study on the consequences of prenatal famine exposure on DNA methylation.

  The potential of the epigenome to undergo environmentally-induced changes during early development is central to its postulated role in human disease. Here, we report a genome-scale view of DNA methylation differences after early gestational malnutrition that was caused by the Dutch Hunger Winter, a severe famine at the end of World War II. We adopted an annotation guided analysis of reduced-representation bisulfite sequencing data generated in 24 middle-aged individuals who had been exposed to famine in utero and 24 unexposed sibling controls. We observed differential DNA methylation primarily at genomic regions with regulatory potential, including enhancers active during early development. In-depth annotation of 181 prenatally-induced differentially methylated regions (P-DMRs) showed that they were predominantly located in gene bodies and co-occurred with histone marks denoting an active state. In line with the early gestational timing of the exposure, the P-DMRs mapped to genes that were enriched for differential expression patterns during blastocyst development and early organogenesis. Validation and further explorative analyses of 6 P-DMRs mapping to SMAD7, CDH23, INSR, RFTN1, CPT1A and KLF13 highlighted the critical role of gestational timing, indicated that differential methylation extended along pathways involved in growth, development and metabolism, and suggested associations with birth weight and serum LDL cholesterol in adulthood and confirmed an enhancer function for the INSR and CPT1A P-DMRs. Our results point toward a link between prenatal malnutrition and epigenetic modulation of growth and lipid metabolism that may underlie the adverse metabolic phenotype of exposed individuals in later life.

• Associations between APOE status and cognitive ability across the lifecourse

  The association between APOE genotype and cognitive function suggests a positive role for the e2 allele and a negative role for the e4 allele. Both alleles have relatively low frequencies in the general population, hence meta-analyses have been based on many small, heterogeneous studies. Here we report the APOE-cognition associations in the largest single analysis to date. APOE status and cognitive ability were measured in 18,337 participants from the Generation Scotland study between 2006 and 2011. The age range was 18-94 years with a mean of 47 (SD 15). Four cognitive domains were assessed: verbal declarative memory (paragraph recall), processing speed (digit symbol substitution), verbal fluency (phonemic verbal fluency), and vocabulary (Mill Hill synonyms). Linear regression was used to assess the associations between APOE genetic status and cognition. Possession of the e4 allele was associated with lower scores on the measures of memory and processing speed in subjects aged >60. Across all age ranges, the e4 allele was linked to better verbal fluency scores. In younger subjects (≤60 years) the e4 allele was linked to higher vocabulary scores. There were no associations between the e2 allele and cognitive ability. As seen in previous meta-analyses, the APOE e4 allele is linked to poorer cognitive performance in the domains of memory and processing speed. By contrast, positive associations were seen between the e4 allele and measures of verbal fluency and vocabulary. All associations were relatively small and, in many cases, nominally significant despite the very large sample size.

• Next-Generation Sequencing of AV Nodal Reentry Tachycardia patients

  Atrioventricular nodal reentry tachycardia (AVNRT) is the most common form of regular paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. This arrhythmia affects women twice as frequently as men, and is often diagnosed in patients below 40 years of age. Familial clustering, early onset of symptoms, and lack of structural anomaly indicate involvement of genetic factors in AVNRT pathophysiology. We hypothesized that AVNRT patients have a high prevalence of variants in genes that are highly expressed in the atrioventricular conduction axis of the heart and potentially involved in arrhythmic diseases. Next-generation sequencing of 67 genes was applied to the DNA profile of 298 AVNRT patients and 10 AVNRT family members using HaloPlex Target Enrichment System.In total, we identified 229 variants in 60 genes; 215 missenses, four frame shifts, four codon deletions, three missense and splice sites, two stop-gain variants, and one start-lost variant. Sixty-five of these were not present in the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) database. Furthermore, we report two AVNRT families with co-segregating variants. Seventy-five of 284 AVNRT patients (26.4%) and three family members to different AVNRT probands had one or more variants in genes affecting the sodium handling. Fifty-four out of 284 AVNRT patients (19.0%) had variants in genes affecting the calcium handling of the heart. We furthermore find a large proportion of variants in the HCN1-4 genes. We did not detect a significant enrichment of rare variants in the tested genes.This could be an indication that AVNRT might be an electrical arrhythmic disease with abnormal sodium and calcium handling.

• Transcriptional profiling of ovarian tumours and cell lines

  Purpose: Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) play a role in a variety of biological processes, including embryogenesis and cancer. DNA methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTi)-induced ERV expression triggers interferon responses in ovarian cancer cells via the viral sensing machinery. Baseline expression of ERVs also occurs in cancer cells, though this process is poorly understood and previously unexplored in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Here, the prognostic and immunomodulatory consequences of baseline ERV expression was assessed in EOC. Experimental Design: ERV expression was assessed using EOC transcriptional data from TCGA and from an independent cohort (HH), as well as from untreated or DNMTi-treated EOC cell lines. LASSO logistic regression defined an ERV expression score to predict patient prognosis. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was conducted on the HH cohort. Combination of DNMTi treatment with γδ T cells was tested in vitro, using EOC cell lines and patient-derived tumor cells. Results: ERV expression was found to define clinically relevant subsets of EOC patients. An ERV prognostic score was successfully generated in TCGA and validated in the independent cohort. In EOC patients from this cohort, a high ERV score was associated with better survival (log-rank p=0.0009) and correlated with infiltration of CD8+PD1+ T cells (r=0.46, p=0.0001). In vitro, baseline ERV expression dictates the level of ERV induction in response to DNMTi. Manipulation of ERV expression by DNMTi resulted in improved EOC cell killing by cytotoxic immune cells. Conclusions: These findings uncover the potential for baseline ERV expression to robustly inform EOC patient prognosis, influence tumor immune infiltration and affect anti-tumor immunity.

• Phylogenetic analysis of treatment-naive metastases using whole exome and genome sequencing data

  Metastases are responsible for the majority of cancer related deaths and are often difficult to treat successfully. Even for metastases that occur subsequent to treatment, we do not know whether such relapsing metastases were originally heterogeneous or if the observed heterogeneity is a consequence of therapy. Given that treatment can influence evolutionary dynamics by selecting resistant clones, imposing bottlenecks on cancer cell populations, and even inducing novel somatic mutations, characterizing the prior standing variation among metastases remains an important goal to predict initial therapeutic response. To quantify the heterogeneity at clinical presentation of advanced disease, we surveyed the literature for patients in which at least two treatment-naïve metastases underwent genome/exome-wide sequencing. Across all cancer types surveyed, only 18 subjects were found to fulfill this requirement. Including previously unpublished data from two subjects, we analyzed data of 74 untreated metastases and inferred cancer phylogenies. Putative driver gene mutations were acquired at a 2-fold higher rate on the trunk of all metastases than on branches. Mutations in driver genes along the trunk were strongly enriched for predicted functional consequences. Using a stochastic mathematical model, we find that driver gene heterogeneity among metastases mostly occurs in slowly growing cancers for highly advantageous driver gene mutations. Seeding efficiency only weakly affects the heterogeneity among metastases. These results explain why functional driver gene heterogeneity is uncommon in advanced disease prior to treatment, thus providing optimism for future therapies that depend on mutations across metastases.

• Healthy_ageing_thymus

  Single cell RNA sequencing of immune and non-immune cells from healthy ageing thymus Thymus is a primary lymphoid organ that creates an environment for the T lymphocyte precursors differentiation into the naive T cells, which involves TCR gene rearrangement, negative and positive selection. Despite thymus critical function for the recognition of the pathogens it starts to atrophy very early in life. Thymic Epithelial Space (TES), where thymocyte education occurs, starts to decline rapidly just after birth, while with the onset of puberty thymus is also progressively replaced with adipose tissue. This leads to a reduced naive T cell output,which decreases an organism's ability to recognize pathogens. In our lab, we have already collected and characterized cell type composition and gene regulatory networks of the fetal tand adult human thymus (Park et al, Science 2020). In the current project we plan to expand the number of paediatric and adult samples in the study with the aim to understand how the process of thymic involution happens. We will use single-cell transcriptomics to zoom on changes that occur in immune and non-immune cell types in different phases of thymic involution with the hope to understand which gene expression changes are causal for the thymic involution process and how naïve T cell production can be increased in elderly.

• Colorectal cancer study

  Matrix metalloproteinase-11 (MMP11) is an enzyme with proteolytic activity against matrix and non-matrix proteins. Although most MMPs are secreted as inactive proenzymes and they are later activated extracellularly, MMP11 is activated intracellularly by furin within the constitutive secretory pathway. It is a key factor in physiological tissue remodeling and its alteration may play an important role in the progression of epithelial malignancies and other diseases. TCGA colon and colorectal adenocarcinoma data showed that upregulation of MMP11 expression correlates with tumorigenesis and malignancy. Here, we provide evidence that a germline variant in the MMP11 gene (NM_005940: c.232C>T; p.(Pro78Ser)), identified by whole exome sequencing, can increase the tumorigenic properties of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. P78S is located in the prodomain region, which is responsible for blocking MMP11’s protease activity. This variant was detected in the proband and all the cancer-affected family members analyzed, while it was not detected in healthy relatives. In silico analyses predict that P78S could have an impact on the activation of the enzyme. Furthermore, our in vitro analyses show that the expression of P78S in HCT116 cells increases tumor cell invasion and proliferation. In summary, our results show that this variant could modify the structure of the MMP11 prodomain, producing a premature or uncontrolled activation of the enzyme that may contribute to an early CRC onset in these patients. The study of this gene in other CRC cases will provide further information about its role in CRC development, which might improve patient treatment in the future.

• Treatment stratification and biomarker validation using patient-derived head and neck cancer organoids

  Background Organoids are three-dimensional structures that can be grown from patient-derived material including carcinomas. These in vitro models can be cryopreserved to generate “living” biobanks that reflect patient heterogeneity. Head and neck cancer (HNC) is a collective term used for tumors arising in the head and neck area, including squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) and adenocarcinoma of the salivary gland. Methods to culture patient-derived HNC organoids have previously been described. Methods Organoids were derived from resection or biopsy material of patients included between 2016 and 2022. Organoids were characterised with immunohistochemistry and whole exome sequencing (WES) and exposed to chemo-, radio- and targeted-therapies. CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing was applied to validate proposed biomarkers. Results We have extended our previously published organoid biobank to a total of 110 organoid models, some of which were characterised by histology and WES. Organoids recapitulated both single nucleotide variants and copy number alterations as found in patient HNSCC samples. Organoid and patient response to radiotherapy (RT; primary (n=6) and adjuvant (n=15)) could be compared in 21 HNC cases. In the adjuvant RT group, organoids derived from patients that relapsed were more resistant to RT in vitro, showing potential for guiding treatment options in this subset of patients. Conclusion Taken together, these results indicate illustrate the potential of organoids as a diagnostic tool in personalised medicine for HNC and indicate the potential of this technology for biomarker discovery and validation within the context of relevant patient heterogeneity.

• Efficacy of nivolumab in pediatric cancers with high mutation burden and mismatch-repair deficiency

  Purpose: Checkpoint-inhibitors have limited efficacy for children with unselected solid and brain tumors. We report the first prospective pediatric trial (NCT02992964) using nivolumab exclusively for refractory non-hematological cancers harboring tumor mutation burden (TMB) ≥5 mutations/megabase (mut/Mb) and/or mismatch-repair deficiency (MMRD). Patients and methods: Twenty patients were screened, and ten ultimately included in the response cohort of whom nine had TMB >10mut/Mb (three initially eligible based on MMRD) and one patient had TMB between 5-10 mut/Mb. Results: Delayed immune responses contributed to best overall response of 50%, improving on initial objective responses (20%) and leading to 2-year overall survival (OS) of 50% (95% CI; 27, 93). Four children, including three with refractory malignant gliomas are in complete remission at a median follow-up of 37-months (range: 32.4-60), culminating in 2-year OS of 43% (95% CI; 18.2, 100). Biomarker analyses confirmed benefit in children with germline MMRD, microsatellite instability, higher activated and lower regulatory circulating T-cells. Stochastic mutation accumulation driven by underlying germline MMRD impacted the tumor microenvironment, contributing to delayed responses. No benefit was observed in the single patient with a MMR-proficient tumour and TMB 7.4 mut/Mb. Conclusions: Nivolumab resulted in durable responses and prolonged survival for the first time in a pediatric trial of refractory hypermutated cancers including malignant gliomas. Novel biomarkers identified here need to be translated rapidly to clinical care to identify children who can benefit from checkpoint-inhibitors, including for upfront management of their cancers.

• Clinical and genetic factors associated with tumor response to neoadjuvant (chemo)radiotherapy, survival and recurrence risk in rectal cancer

  Rectal cancer poses challenges in preoperative treatment response, with up to 30% achieving a complete response (CR). Personalized treatment relies on accurate identification of responders at diagnosis. This study aimed to unravel CR determinants, overall survival (OS), and time to recurrence (TTR) using clinical and targeted sequencing data. Analyzing 402 patients undergoing preoperative treatment, tumor stage, size, and treatment emerged as robust response predictors. CR rates were higher in smaller, early-stage, and intensively treated tumors. Targeted sequencing analyzed 216 cases, while 120 patients provided hotspot mutation data. KRAS mutation dramatically reduced CR odds by over 50% (odds ratio [OR]=0.3 in the targeted sequencing and OR=0.4 hotspot cohorts, respectively). In contrast, SMAD4 and SYNE1 mutations were associated with higher CR rates (OR=6.0 and 6.8, respectively). Favorable OS was linked to younger age, CR, and low baseline carcinoembryonic antigen levels. Notably, CR and an APC mutation increased TTR, while a BRAF mutation negatively affected TTR. Beyond tumor burden, SMAD4 and SYNE1 mutations significantly influenced CR. KRAS mutations independently correlated with radiotherapy resistance, and BRAF mutations heightened recurrence risk. Intriguingly, nonresponding tumors with initially small sizes carried a higher risk of recurrence. These findings offer insights into rectal cancer treatment response, guiding personalized therapeutic strategies. By uncovering factors impacting CR, OS, and TTR, this study underscores the importance of tailored approaches for rectal cancer patients. These findings, based on extensive analysis and mutation data, pave the way for personalized interventions, optimizing outcomes in the challenges of rectal cancer preoperative treatment.

• Peripheral blood DNA methylome in adalimumab-treated patients with rheumatoid arthritis

  Background and aims Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients are currently treated with biological agents mostly aimed at cytokine blockade such as anti-TNFα therapy. Currently, there are no biomarkers to predict therapy response to these agents. Here, we aimed to predict response to adalimumab (ADA) treatment in RA patients using DNA methylation in peripheral blood Methods DNA methylation profiling on whole peripheral blood from 92 RA patients before the start of adalimumab (ADA) was determined using Illumina HumanMethylationEPIC BeadChip Array. After 6 months, treatment response was assessed according to the Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) criteria for disease response. Patients were classified as responders (DAS28<3.2 or decrease of 1.2 points) or as non-responders (DAS28>5.1 or decrease of less than 0.6 points). Machine learning models were built with gradient boosting and stability selection models to predict response prior to ADA treatment with predictor DNA methylation markers. Results We demonstrated a 27-feature panel of DNA methylation markers or CpG classifiers that predict response in RA patients treated with ADA. Forty-nine patients were assigned as responder and 43 patients assigned as non-responders. We differentiate responders from non-responders with a high sensitivity (AUC 0.76). The predictor CpGs annotated to genes involved in immunological- and pathophysiological pathways related to RA such as T-cell signaling, B-cell pathology and angiogenesis. Conclusion Our findings indicate that DNA methylation signatures discriminate responders and non-responders to ADA treatment and can serve as a tool for therapy prediction.

  Please note: This synthetic data set (with cohort “participants” / ”subjects” marked with FAKE) has no identifiable data and cannot be used to make any inference about cohort data or results. The purpose of this dataset is to aid development of technical implementations for cohort data discovery, harmonization, access, and federated analysis.

Please ensure this preamble is included with this dataset and that the CINECA project (funding: EC H2020 grant 825775) is acknowledged. For any questions please contact isuru@ebi.ac.uk or cthomas@ebi.ac.uk This dataset (CINECA_synthetic_cohort_EUROPE_UK1) consists of 2521 samples which have genetic data based on 1000 Genomes data (https://www.nature.com/articles/nature15393), and synthetic subject attributes and phenotypic data derived from UKBiobank (https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.1001779). These data were initially derived using the TOFU tool (https://github.com/spiros/tofu), which generates randomly generated values based on the UKBiobank data dictionary. Categorical values were randomly generated based on the data dictionary, continuous variables generated based on the distribution of values reported by the UK Biobank showcase, and date / time values were random. Additionally we split the phenotypes and attributes into 4 main classes - general, cancer, diabetes mellitus, and cardiac. We assigned the general attributes to all the samples, and the cardiac / diabetes mellitus / cancer attributes to a proportion of the total samples. Once the initial set of phenotypes and attributes were generated, the data data was checked for consistency and where possible dependent attributes were calculated from the independent variables generated by TOFU. For example, BMI was calculated from height and weight data, and age at death generated by date of death and date of birth. These data were then loaded to the development instance of Biosamples (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biosamples/) which accessioned each of the samples. The genetic data are derived from the 1000 Genomes Phase 3 release (https://www.internationalgenome.org/category/phase-3/). The genotype data consists of a single joint call vcf files with call genotypes for all 2504 samples, plus bed, bim, fam, and nosex files generated via plink for these samples and genotypes. The genotype data has had a variety of errors introduced to mimic real data and as a test for quality control pipelines. These include gender mismatches, ethnic background mislabelling and low call rates for a randomly chosen subset of sample data as well as deviations from Hardy Weinberg equilibrium and low call rates for a random selection of variants. Additionally 40 samples have raw genetic data available in the form of both bam and cram files, including unmapped data. The gender of the samples in the 1000 genomes data has been matched to the synthetic phenotypic data generated for these samples. The genetic data was then linked to the synthetic data in BioSamples, and submitted to EGA.
