• Whole Genome Sequencing of JK Family

  In collaboration with Dr David Savage, we have identified a patient with a very unusual phenotype, lacking almost all visceral fat, but showing a massive accumulation of white fat tissue behind her neck and significantly elevated liver fat. Whole exome sequencing of the proband and her unaffected parents and brother has been run previously, however no causative variant has been found and the sequencing coverage was generally poor. We propose to conduct whole genome sequencing of all 4 family members at a depth of 30X.

• A compendium of mutational signatures due to environmental exposures

  Analysis of mutational signatures caused by exposure to known mutagens in human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. A reference human iPS cell-line will be exposed to 100 chemicals known or proposed to be mutagenic. Following exposure to mutagen, cells will undergo a period of recovery before sub clones are generated and sequenced. The progenitor "parental" IPS cell-line will be used to generate reference sequence data, in order to determine the mutational signatures acquired as a result of exposure to different mutagens.

• A Phase I/II Trial of Sirolimus (Rapamune®) and Cyclosporine in Patients with Refractory Aplastic Anemia

  The most successful treatment for aplastic anemia is bone marrow transplantation. However, few patients are eligible for this procedure. For others, treatment usually consists of immunosuppressive agents, such as antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and cyclosporine. Unfortunately, even with immunosuppressive therapy, relapse is common. New combinations of medications may offer alternative and more effective treatment options. Sirolimus and cyclosporine are two drugs routinely used to suppress the immune system and prevent rejection in patients who have received organ transplants. While cyclosporine has been proven effective for treating aplastic anemia, sirolimus has not been tested for this disease. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of sirolimus in combination with cyclosporine for treating individuals with aplastic anemia that have not responded to other treatments. This study will last at least 6 months. Participants will first be screened to verify diagnosis of aplastic anemia. The screening will include a physical examination, blood test, bone marrow biopsy from the pelvic bone, and review of medications and medical history. Individuals who are eligible will then start the first treatment period. Participants will receive two medications: cyclosporine will be taken twice a day and sirolimus will be taken once a day. Depending on side effects, the dose of either drug may be temporarily stopped or lowered. On Day 1, blood will be drawn and females will undergo a pregnancy test. Subsequent study visits will occur weekly for the first month, every 2 weeks for 2 months, and then once a month for the remainder of the study. Each visit will include a physical examination, vital sign assessment, and review of side effects and medications. Blood tests will be performed weekly for the first 3 weeks, and then every 2 weeks. After 6 months of treatment, if a participant has shown improvements in disease status without major side effects, the treatment will continue. Over time the doses may be lowered. If a participant has not improved while on the study medication, treatment will stop at 6 months. Whenever treatment is discontinued, the participant will again undergo a physical examination, blood tests, and bone marrow biopsy.

• Integrative Analysis of Tumor Biopsies on Sequential CTLA-4 and PD-1 Blockade Reveals Markers of Response and Resistance

  Blockade of T cell coinhibitory molecules such as CTLA-4 and PD-1, can activate T cell antitumor response. Although these immune checkpoint blockades (CTLA-4 blockade and PD-1 blockade) have shown durable response, response rate is modest. Therefore, there is a need to find stable biomarkers predictive of response to immune checkpoint blockades and to understand underlying resistance mechanisms. We collected longitudinal tumor biopsies from a cohort of metastatic melanoma patients treated with sequential immune checkpoint blockades and performed whole exome sequencing of this cohort. The comprehensive genomic characterization of tumors enabled identification of higher copy number loss burden as a resistance mechanism and clonal T cell repertoire as a predictive biomarker.

• DNA Replication Timing Alterations in Genetic Diseases

  This study contains a collection of lymphoblastoid cell line (LCL) and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) whole genome sequencing from individuals with an without a diagnosed genetic disease. Several types of genetic diseases are included such as translocations, repeat expansions, and heritable or spontaneous mutations of genes. We used the whole genome sequencing to generate DNA replication timing profiles for these individuals and compared the profiles of diseased individuals to presumed healthy samples. We aimed to identify replication timing alteration linked to a specific genetic disease and therefore elucidate trans-acting factors of DNA replication timing. We found that replication timing was highly consistent across almost all diseased samples. Only one genetic disease, a mutation in MCM10, demonstrated an altered profile of replication timing.

• Genomics of Brain Metastases

  Brain metastases are the most frequently occurring intracranial tumors in adults. Median survival after the diagnosis of a brain metastasis is in the order of a few months. Despite its large burden of disease and devastating clinical sequelae, we continue to have a limited understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving brain metastasis. We subjected 86 trios consisting of primary tumor, brain metastasis, and matched normal tissue to whole exome sequencing (WES). To analyze the data, we developed novel computational tools to perform an integrative analysis of somatic single nucleotide variants (SSNVs) and somatic copy-number alterations (SCNAs). This analysis allowed us to estimate the clonal architecture of the primary and metastatic samples of each patient, and to reconstruct a phylogenetic tree relating all of the subclones.

• The Cancer Dependency Map (DepMap)

  The Cancer Dependency Map (DepMap) aims to accelerate precision cancer medicine by creating a comprehensive map of tumor vulnerabilities. The DepMap project genomically profiles a wide range of cancer models and characterizes them for their sensitivity to genetic and compound perturbations. The data is computationally analyzed to create a systematic overview of the genetic dependencies and compound sensitivities of cancer types and the predictive biomarkers that point to patient populations most likely to benefit from targeting of these vulnerabilities. The DepMap public portal has become a comprehensive resource to identify cancer vulnerabilities by providing datasets at scale, cutting-edge computational tools, and sophisticated visualization tools that together have accelerated the discovery of novel targets and biomarkers. Please visit Depmap.org to access the public portal.

• Genomics of Glomerular Disorders

  The purpose of the "Genomics of Glomerular Disorders" study is to identify genetic contributions to primary glomerulopathies. This repository includes a total of N = 4,238 patients with a kidney biopsy diagnosis of a primary glomerular disorder across the following categories: focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS, N = 583), Henoch-Schönlein purpura nephritis (HSPN, N = 403), IgA nephropathy (IgAN, N = 1,555), membranous nephropathy (MN, N = 1,003), and minimal change disease (MCD, N = 694). The dataset includes a total of 2,290 patients recruited into the Cure Glomerulonephropathy (CureGN) study and another 1,948 patients from the Columbia University CKD Biobank (i.e., non-CureGN patients). The sample sizes by phenotype are counted based on enrollment diagnoses. The repository includes 3,958 WGS samples and 2,129 RNA-seq samples.

• NHLBI TOPMed: TReating Children to Prevent EXacerbations of Asthma (TREXA)

  TREXA is a 44-week randomized, double-blind, double-masked, four-treatment, parallel trial that will evaluate the weaning strategy that provides the best protection against the development of exacerbations in children whose asthma is acceptably controlled on a low dose of ICS (per NAEPP guidelines). Following the 4 weeks of the run-in period on a 1x dose of ICS (100 µg fluticasone b.i.d. or its equivalent), children who do not meet the definition of acceptable asthma control will be randomized to the parallel BADGER protocol; those who meet the definition of acceptable asthma control will be enrolled into the 44-week treatment phase of the study. The primary outcome measure will be time to first exacerbation requiring a prednisone course.

• 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).

• Synchronous patterning of hiPSC-derived CNS progenitors generates comprehensive axial spinal cord organoids (CASCOs) containing diverse motor neuron population

  Advancements in human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) culture have enabled the generation of spinal cord organoids (SCOs), though achieving distinct axial identities in spinal motor neurons (spMNs) along the rostro-caudal (RC) axis remains a challenge. By optimizing the timing and sequence of patterning factors, we developed a mixed stem cell model of rostral neural stem cells (NSCs) and caudal neuromesodermal progenitors (NMPs) to generate SCOs with enhanced spMN heterogeneity, including a wide range of axial identities and benchmarked this against commonly used protocols. Our approach, termed CASO (Comprehensive Axial Spinal Organoids), also incorporates endothelial networks and skeletal muscle to improve organoid complexity and health, offering a novel method to study spMN axial specification and model neurodegenerative diseases.

• Fragmentomic features of individuals with different cfDNA concentrations

  The goal of this study is to explore fragmentomic patterns that vary between individuals of different concentrations of total cell-free DNA in plasma. We have selected a large cohort of individuals (ethnically Chinese men with a median age of 54 years, IQR 49-57) who were part of a screening of a large-scale clinical study to screen for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Differences in fragmentomic features provided insights into the modulation of cfDNA levels in blood circulation. Fragmentomic and machine learning systems adopted in this study have also been applied to assess the quantity of cfDNA species of clinical interest, including the fraction of circulating fetal and tumor DNA, from pregnancy cases and individuals with hepatocellular carcinoma, respectively.

• Genome-wide analysis of HPV integration in human cancers reveals recurrent, focal genomic instability

  Genomic instability is a hallmark of human cancers, including the 5% caused by human papillomavirus (HPV). Here we report a striking association between HPV integration and adjacent host genomic structural variation in human cancer cell lines and primary tumors. Whole genome sequencing revealed HPV integrants flanking and bridging extensive host genomic amplifications and rearrangements, including deletions, inversions and chromosomal translocations. We present a model of ³looping² by which HPV integrant-mediated DNA replication and recombination may result in viral-host DNA concatemers, frequently disrupting genes involved in oncogenesis and amplifying HPV oncogenes E6 and E7. Our high-resolution results shed new light on a catastrophic process, distinct from chromothripsis and other mutational processes, by which HPV directly promotes genomic instability.

• Targeting PTPRK-RSPO3 colon tumours promotesdifferentiation and loss of stem-cell function

  Colorectal cancer remains a major unmet medical need, promptinglarge-scale genomics efforts in the field to identify moleculardrivers for which targeted therapies might be developed. Wepreviously reported the identification of recurrent translocationsin R-spondin proteins present in a subset of colorectal tumours.Here we show that targeting RSPO3 in PTPRK-RSPO3-fusion positivehuman tumour xenografts inhibits tumour growth andpromotes differentiation. Notably, genes expressed in the stem-cellcompartment of the intestine were among those most sensitive toanti-RSPO3 treatment. This observation, combined with functionalassays, suggests that a stem-cell compartment drives PTPRK-RSPO3colorectal tumour growth and indicates that the therapeutictargeting of stem-cell properties within tumours may be a clinicallyrelevant approach for the treatment of colorectal tumors.

• The 3D evolution of glioma cell populations

  Study description: A detailed understanding of heterogeneity in solid tumors has been limited due to insufficient sampling and a lack of knowledge from where within the tumor the sample was taken from. We present here a novel resource - the 3D Glioma Atlas - in which we record the precise, three-dimensional (3D) coordinate for each of 8-20 spatially-distinct samples obtained from each patient tumor.By revealing how genetic alterations and tumor cell states are patterned in glioma in 3D space, our Atlas shows that genetic diversity is more regionally confined in indolent as compared to aggressive tumors, that recurrent tumors have a greater density of genetic diversity, and that more aggressive tumors have greater tumor-wide transcriptomic heterogeneity.

• WGS_of_healhy_mesothelial_cells_and_primary_mesothelima_cell_lines

  Mesothelioma is a rare and aggressive cancer associated with previous exposure to asbestos. Currently there are no effective treatments for mesothelioma and majority of patients will die within a year after diagnosis. Although a large number of preclinical and clinical trials assessed the efficacy of various therapuetic modes, none of the tested molecules entered the clinic. Thus, to better understand what drives mesothelioma carcinogenesis and to identify novel targets for therapy, here we aim at performing WGS of heathy mesothelial cells and a panel of mesothelioma cells lines. Primary mesothelial cell lines were established in prof. Marciniak lab from human pleural specimens, while primary mesothelioma cell lines were obtained from MesobanK. Both models constitute low passage cell lines and therefore should closely represent genetics of the original tissue.

• Mutational_landscape_in_haemochromatosis__WGS_

  Somatic mutation has recently been shown to play a role in disease other than cancer. Driver mutations associated with lipid metabolism and insulin pathway have been identified in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). It is plausible that driver mutations seen in NAFLD are a consequence of selection pressure exerted on hepatocytes in the context of excess fat accumulation. It has not been investigated whether selection pressure and driver landscape varies between chronic liver diseases of different aetiologies. This study aims to investigate mutational landscape in haemochromatosis, which is a disorder caused by a build-up of iron in the liver. We aim to use data generated by whole-genome sequencing of laser-dissected microbiopsies from diseased livers to characterize driver landscape and mutational signatures in haemochromatosis patients.

• Clonal dominance defines metastatic dissemination in pancreatic cancer

  Using patient-derived cells from a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, we created orthotopic clonal replica tumors to trace in an unbiased fashion clonal lineage dynamics of unperturbed tumor expansion and dissemination over time. The model revealed the complex multifaced nature of tumor clonal expansion and uncovered brisk changes in fitness that lead to a continuous reshuffling of tumor clonal architecture and alternating clonal dominance as a distinct feature of cancer growth. Paired analysis of clonal lineages in primary and secondary sites revealed fitness in the primary tumor as a major contributor to dissemination, although other clonal intrinsic and extrinsic factors may contribute to metastatic process. Molecular characterization of lineages with differential metastatic potential identified actionable strategy to suppress dissemination at the subclonal level.

• Identification of cardiovascular biomarkers through an integrative omics approach

  Recent GWAS studies have made extensive use of large eQTL data sets to functionally annotate index SNPs. With a large number of association signals located outside coding regions there has been an intense search among sequence variants affecting gene expression at the transcriptional level. However, little progress has been made in mapping regulatory variants that affect protein levels at the translational or post-translational level. It is now possible to undertake a protein QTL scan for focused sets of e.g. oxidized proteins by mass spectrometry. We have established a collaboration with a longitudinal, family-based study in France, the Stanislas cohort, which comprises circa 1000 nuclear families (4,295 individuals) and has follow up data for 10 years (three visits). We have undertaken a pilot study in a focus set of 257 subjects from 79 families with the aim to integrate GWAS, transcriptomic and DNA methylation data with proteomic data on a set of 100 proteins measured in PBMCs. We have already generated GWAS data using Illumina's core-exome chip as well as DNA methylation profiles with the 450K array. We propose to use RNA seq to generate transcriptomic data of the corresponding PBMCs. This data is part of a pre-publication release.

• RNA sequencing of periprostatic fat after a 6 month deep androgen deprivation therapy

  Androgen deprivation therapy treated patients (n=11) were recruited from an open label neoadjuvant phase II study in which patients with high-risk disease received a ‘supercastration’ regimen consisting of degarelix 240/80 mg subcutaneously every four weeks; abiraterone acetate 500 mg orally daily titrating upwards every two weeks by 250 mg to a final dose of 1000 mg daily; bicalutamide 50 mg orally daily; and prednisolone 5 mg orally twice daily for a total of 6 months (Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry 12612000772842). Untreated patients with similar pre-treatment characteristics were obtained from a prospective prostatectomy biorepository22,23. Prior to ligation of the dorsal venous complex and prostate pedicles, the anterior prostate was defatted and the specimen was removed immediately, placed in a sterile container and transferred on ice for long-term storage in the vapour phase of liquid nitrogen. A total of 50–100 µg of adipose tissue was separated from fresh frozen samples stored at −160°C. RNA was isolated using the Qiagen RNeasy Lipid Tissue Mini Kit and eluted in 35 µL nuclease-free water. 0.5–1 µg of total RNA was used as the input for cDNA library synthesis using TruSeq RNA Sample Prep Kit v2 (Illumina), and libraries were constructed according to manufacturer’s instructions. Samples were sequenced on a HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) using 101 base paired-end chemistry, aiming for 50 million mapped paired-end reads per sample.
