• EuCANCan: EUropean-CANadian Cancer network

  The EUropean-CANadian Cancer network (EuCANCan) is a project aiming to develop a federated network of aligned and interoperable infrastructures for the homogeneous analysis, management and sharing of genomic oncology data for Personalized Medicine. This initiative, funded by the European Commission and the Canadian Institutes of Health and coordinated by the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), is expected to process and provide the scientific community with around 30-35 thousand patient samples from different types of cancer, coming from different nodes involved in this project, during the four years of the project. Data generated as part of primary studies, often in small hospitals or research centers, is hardly reused by other projects or groups. EuCANCan is proposed to foster the homogenisation and discoverability of cancer samples from very different sources for the whole community. These efforts will help paving the way to future standardised and global genomics projects, specially for those participant countries that eventually integrate the methodology and infrastructure generated during the project. “The more data we have access to the more and better discoveries. We attempt to overcome the legal and technical limitations in order to generate, gather and exploit bigger datasets as well as answer more ambitious questions”. These were some of the words Dr. David Torrents, main coordinator of the project, shared with a regional radio during the kick-off meeting of the project, on February 11th, 2019. The EUCANCan network will be composed of reference nodes in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Berlin, Heidelberg, Paris and Toronto which have established strong research and clinical programs in the field of genomic oncology. The Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), specifically the European Genome-phenome Archive (EGA), is among the leading institutions. Its exhaustive experience in biomedical data archival and secure distribution is considered key for crucial developments within the project. It is also notable the recent inclusion of EUCANCan in the list of GA4GH driver projects.

• EATL-II STUDY

  Enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), a rare and aggressive intestinal malignancy of intraepithelial T lymphocytes, comprises two disease variants (EATL-I and EATL-II) differing in clinical characteristics and pathological features. Here we report findings derived from whole exome sequencing of 15 EATL-II tumor-normal tissue pairs. The tumor suppressor gene SETD2 encoding a non-redundant H3K36-specific trimethyltransferase is altered in 14/15 cases (93%), mainly by loss-of-function mutations and/or loss of the corresponding locus (3p21.31). These alterations consistently correlate with defective H3K36 trimethylation. The JAK/STAT pathway comprises recurrent STAT5B (60%), JAK3 (46%) and SH2B3 (20%) mutations, including a STAT5B V712E activating variant. Additionally, frequent mutations in TP53, BRAF and KRAS are observed. Conversely, in EATL-I, no SETD2, STAT5B or JAK3 mutations are found, and H3K36 trimethylation is preserved. This study describes SETD2 inactivation as EATL-II molecular hallmark, supports EATL-I and -II being two distinct entities, and defines potential new targets for therapeutic intervention.

• Orthotopic Patient-Derived Xenografts of Pediatric Solid Tumors

  Pediatric solid tumors arise from endodermal, ectodermal, or mesodermal lineages. Although the overall survival of children with solid tumors is 75%-80%, that of children with recurrent disease is below 30%. To capture the complexity and diversity of pediatric solid tumors and establish new models of recurrent disease, we developed a protocol to produce orthotopic patient-derived xenografts (O-PDXs) at diagnosis, recurrence, and autopsy. Tumor specimens were received from 168 patients, and 64 O-PDXs were established for 12 types of pediatric solid tumors. The origins of the O-PDX tumors were reflected in their gene-expression profiles and epigenomes. Genomic profiling of the tumors, including detailed clonal analysis, was performed to determine whether the clonal population in the xenograft recapitulated the patient’s tumor. We identified several drug vulnerabilities and showed that the combination of a WEE1 inhibitor (AZD1775), irinotecan, and vincristine can lead to complete response in multiple rhabdomyosarcoma O-PDX tumors in vivo.

• Chordoma_Sequencing_Project_Whole_Genome

  This is a continuation of the Chordoma Sequencing Project, prelim #G0175-122-CF. All cancers arise due to somatically acquired abnormalities in DNA sequence. Systematic sequencing of cancer genomes allows acquisition of complete catalogues of all classes of somatic mutation present in cancer. These mutation catalogues will allow identification of the somatically mutated cancer genes that are operative and characterise patterns of somatic mutation that may reflect previous exogenous and endogenous mutagenic exposures. In this application, we aim to perform whole genome sequencing on 10 chordoma matched genome pairs. The Chordoma Foundation will fund the RNA Sequencing/Methylation and SNP6 costs for this project while the whole genome and library sequencing will be covered under the CGP, 2012-2013 core WTSI internal funding. An additional sequencing of three cancer cell lines will be added to this work, financed by the Chordoma Foundation. In this project, the Chordoma foundation will pay for the additional costs of methylation, RNA Seq,

• Whole genome sequencing of six ethnic groups from Burkina Faso, Cameroon, and Tanzania

  We conducted low-coverage (~10x) sequencing of six ethnic groups from three malaria-endemic countries in sub-Saharan Africa, with the aim of characterising genetic diversity and improving imputation performance for genotyped samples in these populations. This data is part of a pre-publication release and is available under managed access. Please see https://www.malariagen.net/data/terms-use/human-gwas-data for more information on MalariaGEN data access policies. The purpose of the project was to support the discovery and understanding of genetic variants that influence human disease. Specifically defined goals were: a. the discovery of single nucleotide variants at frequencies of 1% or higher in diverse populations, b. even more comprehensive discovery (variants down to frequencies of 0.1 - 0.5%) in functional gene regions, and c. discovery of structural variants, such as copy number variants, other insertions and deletions, and inversions, including sequence-level understanding of breakpoints.

• Impact of mutational profiles on response of primary oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancers to oestrogen deprivation

  Presurgical studies allow study of the relationship between mutations and response of estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer to aromatase inhibitors (AIs) but have been limited to small biopsies. Here in Phase I of this study, we perform exome sequencing on baseline, surgical core-cuts and blood from 60 patients (40 AI treated, 20 Controls). In poor responders (based on Ki67 change) we find significantly more somatic mutations than good responders. Subclones exclusive to baseline or surgical cores   occur in approximately 30% of tumours. In Phase II we combine targeted sequencing on another 28 treated patients with Phase I. We find six genes frequently mutated: PIK3CA, TP53, CDH1, MLL3, ABCA13 and FLG with 71% concordance between paired cores. TP53 mutations are associated with poor response. We conclude that multiple biopsies are essential for confident mutational profiling of ER+ breast cancer and TP53 mutations are associated with resistance to oestrogen deprivation therapy.

• Improving CLL Vγ9Vδ2-T cell fitness for cellular therapy by ex vivo activation and ibrutinib

  We studied whether Vγ9Vδ2-T cells can exploited as autologous effector lymphocytes in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Healthy controls (HC) Vγ9Vδ2-T cells were activated by and had potent cytolytic activity against CLL cells, however CLL-derived Vγ9Vδ2-T cells proved dysfunctional with respect to effector cytokine production and cytotxicity. Dysfunction of Vγ9Vδ2-T cells was reversible upon activation with autologous monocyte-derived dendritic cells (mODCs). RNA sequencing confirmed that Vγ9Vδ2-T cells from CLL patients have a transcriptional profile that is distinct from HC Vγ9Vδ2-T cells prior to ex vivo expansion, although the profile after ex vivo expansion is similar between CLL and HC Vγ9Vδ2-T cells. Gene expression profiling implicated alterations in both synapse formation and exhaustion as conceivable contributors to compromised Vγ9Vδ2-T cell function in CLL patients. Taken together, CLL-mediated dysfunction of autologous Vγ9Vδ2-T cells is fully reversible, resulting in potent cytotoxicity towards CLL cells.

• Utility of ctDNA to support patient selection for early phase clinical trials: The TARGET Study

  Next generation sequencing (NGS) of circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) supports blood-based genomic profiling but is not routinely implemented in the clinic. TARGET is a molecular profiling programme with the primary aim to match patients to early phase clinical trials based on analysis of both somatic mutations and copy number alterations (CNA) across a 641 cancer-associated gene panel in a single ctDNA assay. For the first 100 TARGET patients, ctDNA data showed good concordance with matched tumour and results were turned round within a clinically acceptable timeframe for Molecular Tumour Board (MTB) review. When applying a 2.5% Variant Allele Frequency (VAF) threshold actionable mutations were identified in 41/100 patients, with 11 of these patients going onto a matched therapy. These data support the application of ctDNA in an early phase trial setting where broad genomic profiling of contemporaneous tumour material enhances patient stratification to novel therapies and provides a practical template for bringing blood-based analyses to the clinic.

• Infant Glioma Molecular Subtype

  Infant gliomas have completely different clinical behavior than gliomas in children and adults. Low-grade tumors are more aggressive with a higher mortality rate, while high-grade tumors are more benign. However, we have little understanding of their biology and so cannot explain this behavior and what constitutes optimal clinical management. To solve this enigma, we performed a comprehensive genetic analysis of the largest cohort to date of infantile gliomas. We uncovered several important findings which dramatically change the management of these cancers. Infant hemispheric gliomas harbor unique alterations in ROS, ALK, MET and other genes found in adult carcinomas. Unlike in adults, they are typically the only alteration present and some of these tumors regress from high- to low-grade partially explaining their favorable clinical outcome. Midline gliomas harbor RAS/MAPK pathway mutations, progress rapidly, and do not respond to current chemoradiation approaches, partially explaining their poorer outcome. These data suggest that infant gliomas require different therapeutic approaches including early use of targeted therapies.

• A Genomic History of Aboriginal Australia

  The population history of Aboriginal Australians remains largely uncharacterised. We generated high-coverage genomes for 83 Aboriginal Australians (speakers of Pama-Nyungan languages) and 25 Papuans from the New Guinea Highlands. We find that Papuan and Aboriginal Australian ancestors diversified 25-40 thousand years ago (kya), suggesting early population structure in the ancient continent of Sahul (Australia, New Guinea and Tasmania). However, all studied Aboriginal Australians descend from a single founding population that differentiated ~10-32 kya. We infer a population expansion in northeast Australia during the Holocene (past c.10 kya) associated with limited gene flow from this region to the rest of Australia consistent with the spread of the Pama-Nyungan languages. We estimate that Aboriginal Australians and Papuans diverged from Eurasians 51-72 kya, following a single out of Africa dispersal, and subsequently admixed with different archaic populations. Finally, we report evidence of selection in Aboriginal Australians potentially associated with living in the desert.
