• Multicenter International Lymphangioleiomyomatosis Efficacy of Sirolimus Trial (The MILES Trial)

  Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is an uncommon, progressive, cystic lung disease that predominantly affects young women. It is believed to be caused by defects within cellular pathways that regulate nutrient uptake, cell size, cell migration, and cell proliferation. The disease is caused by mutations in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) genes. Individuals with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) often experience pneumothorax and chylothorax, as well progressive loss of lung function. Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is frequently fatal and existing therapies for the disease have not proven effective. Lung transplantation can be considered as a last option, but alternative treatments are needed. Sirolimus is an immunosuppressive drug that is often used in people who have had kidney transplants. It directly affects the genetic pathway that causes Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of sirolimus in stabilizing or improving lung function in people with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM). Individuals interested in participating in this 2-year, double-blind study will first report to the study sites for pulmonary function testing to determine their eligibility for participation. Participants deemed eligible will be randomly assigned to receive either sirolimus or placebo for 1 year. Sirolimus or placebo will be administered in 2 tablet doses (2 mg for sirolimus) for the duration of the study. Study visits will occur at baseline, Week 3, every 3 months for 12 months, and Months 18 and 24. Study visits will include a physical exam, questionnaires, a pregnancy test, blood and urine collection, and functional lung tests. A 6-minute walk test will occur at most study visits; a chest x-ray will be taken at baseline and Month 24; and a volumetric computed tomography scan will occur at baseline Month 12, and Month 24. Adverse events, medication side effects, and lung function will be assessed at each visit.

• Effects of Metformin on Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Profiles in Breast Cancer Survivors Enrolled in the Randomized Placebo-Controlled MetBreCS Trial

  RNA from snap-frozen breast tissue biopsies were purified after lysing by tissuelyser (Qiagen) and using RNA Purification Plus Kit (Norgen biotek CORP, 47700) with additional on-column DNase-I treatment (Qiagen, 79254) at 27 °C. RNA purity and integrity (RIN) were quantified using RNA 6000 Nano kit (Agilent Technologies, 5067-1511) on the 4200 TapeStation (Agilent, Santa Clara, USA). Library preparation and 2x75bp paired-end of 160 ng total RNA input was performed using Illumina Stranded Total RNA Prep Ligation kit and Illumina HiSeq4000 system (Illumina, Sand Diego, CA, USA). RNA sequencing data from HiSeq4000 were quality checked and aligned to GRCh38 (GCA_000001405.15) reference genome using HISAT2 2.0.5 and submitted to subread v.1.5.2 for feature counts calculation. Finally, 36 paired biopsies samples (metformin n=26 and placebo n=12) were sequenced and included in the final analyses.

• Study of Controlled Human Malaria Infections to Evaluate Protection After Intravenous or Intramuscular Administration of PfSPZ Vaccine in Malaria-Naive Adults

  The study was performed to evaluate whole-blood transcriptomic profiles via RNA-seq before, during, and after immunization with the PfSPZ Vaccine in malaria-naïve, health adults enrolled in VRC 314 (NCT02015091). VRC 314 was designed as an open-label evaluation of the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and protective efficacy of the PfSPZ Vaccine. This study was designed to substantiate the initial results with the IV vaccination route for protection against CHMI that was observed in VRC 312 (NCT01441167). Based on the potential importance of dose and schedule in optimizing sustained immunity with this vaccine, an increase in PfSPZ IV dosage on schedules of 3 to 5 vaccinations was evaluated for protection against CHMI conducted early (about 3 weeks) and late (about 24 weeks) after completion of vaccinations. To assess if a higher dose given by another route confers protection, one group received PfSPZ IM, with half of the amount administered in each arm on a schedule with 4 vaccination. The primary objectives of the study were related to the safety and tolerability of vaccinations by the IV and IM routes of administration and protection against Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) challenge performed via a well-established CHMI procedure early (2-4 weeks) after completing schedules of 3 to 5 vaccinations. The secondary objective was related to the durability of protection at 20-26 weeks after the last vaccination, and exploratory objectives were related to the immunogenicity of the PfSPZ Vaccine and identifying potential immune correlates of protection. To further determine potential molecular correlates of immunogenicity and/or protection, RNA-seq was performed on whole blood collected from subjects in all dose groups at time points before, during, and after immunization.

• Tremelimumab +/- durvalumab in combination with paclitaxel as immune induction in metastatic urothelial cancer: clinical and translational results of the ICRA trial

  DESCRIPTION: New therapeutic strategies for therapy-refractory metastatic urothelial carcinoma (mUC) patients are still needed. In the phase I-II ICRA trial, we evaluated whether paclitaxel plus tremelimumab (T; anti-CTLA-4), with or without durvalumab (D; anti-PD-L1), could induce a tumor response in mUC patients who had already received platinum chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI). After a dose-escalation safety phase, patients were randomized between three arms: A (n=20 after expansion) paclitaxel plus T750mg (cycles 2-8); B (n=12) paclitaxel plus T300mg (cycle 2) plus D1500mg (cycles 2-13); C (n=12) T750mg (cycles 1-7). The objective response rate in arm A was 26% (88% confidence interval (CI) = [14,36%]) versus 17% (88% CI = [3,42%]) in arm B and 8% (88% CI = [0.3,33%]) in arm C. Grade 3-4 treatment-related adverse events occurred in (A) 45%, (B) 75%, and (C) 25% of patients. Murine experiments showed attenuated tumor outgrowth for paclitaxel plus anti-CTLA-4 compared to monotherapy with either agent. Transcriptomic analyses showed upregulation of inflammation signatures in on-treatment tumor tissue biopsies. This study demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity in therapy-refractory mUC treated with paclitaxel plus high-dose anti-CTLA-4 and suggests immune induction may still be possible after failure to anti-PD-(L)1 therapy. PROJECT GOAL: We aimed to explore both potential biomarkers for response to combination ICB, as well as treatment dynamics to gain a better understanding of the effects of ICB on the urothelial cancer tumor microenvironment (TME).

• Circumventing intratumoral heterogeneity to identify potential therapeutic targets in hepatocellular carcinoma. Details please contact lifuqiang@genomics and zhaoxin@genomics.cn.

  Background and aims: Intratumoral heterogeneity (ITH) challenges identifying mutations with target therapy potential whereas circulating cell-free DNAs (cfDNAs) could reflect nearly the entire mutation spectrum in given tumors. We investigated how to minimize the limit of ITH for profiling hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods: Thirty-two multi-regional HCC samples from five patients were subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES) and targeted deep sequencing (TDS). ITH extent was measured by the average percentage of non-ubiquitous mutations (present in parts of tumor regions). Matched cfDNAs were also analyzed by WES and TDS. Profiling efficiencies of single tumor specimen and cfDNA were compared and the one better depicted mutational landscape was selected to screen therapeutic targets.Results: We found variable extents of ITH in HCCs and observed branched and parallel evolution patterns. ITH level decreased at higher sequencing depth of TDS than that measured by WES (28.1% vs 34.9%, P < 0.01) but it remained unchanged upon additional samples analyzed. TDS of single tumor specimen detected an average of 70% the total mutations in HCC. Although more mutations were detected in cfDNA under TDS than WES, an average of 47.2% total HCC mutations uncovered by cfDNA suggested tissue outperform cfDNA and the latter may serve as alternative in profiling HCC genome. Consequently, TDS of single tumor tissue in 66 patients and cfDNAs in four unresectable HCCs identified 38.6% (26/66 and 1/4) patients bearing therapeutic targets.Conclusions: TDS of single tumor specimen could largely circumvent ITH to uncover mutations indicative of target therapy in HCC.

• 'IL-17A-Producing ILC3s and Duodenal Adenoma in FAP'

  Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary tumor syndrome that significantly enhances the risk of duodenal adenomas, with variations observed even among carriers of the same genetic variant. In this study, intestinal ILCs were isolated from 82 FAP and 26 non-FAP patients and analyzed through flow cytometry, qRT-PCR, and bulkRNA-sequencing. The data revealed a heightened frequency of ILC3s in FAP patients, and increased IL-17A production of duodenal NKp44(-)ILC3s was associated with FAP. Significant elevations in IL1B, IL23A, and DLL4 mRNA expression levels were found in FAP duodenal adenoma tissue, along with enhanced expression of DUOX2 and DUOXA2. The results suggest the involvement of IL-17A-producing NKp44(-)ILC3s in duodenal adenoma formation in FAP.

• Extracellular transcriptome in seminal plasma for non-invasive prostate cancer diagnosis

  A diagnostic non-invasive biomarker test for prostate cancer at an early stage, with high sensitivity and specificity, would improve diagnostic decision making. Extracellular RNAs present in seminal plasma might contain biomarker potential for the accurate detection of clinically significant prostate cancer. So far, the extracellular messenger RNA (mRNA) profile of seminal plasma has not been interrogated for its biomarker potential in the context of prostate cancer. Here, we investigate the mRNA transcriptome in seminal plasma samples obtained from prostate cancer patients (n=25), patients with benign prostate hyperplasia (n=26) and individuals without prostatic disease (n=6). Seminal plasma harbors a complex mRNA repertoire that reflects prostate as its tissue of origin. The endogenous RNA content is higher in the prostate cancer samples compared to the control samples. Prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3), a long non-coding RNA with prostate cancer-specific overexpression, and ATP-binding cassette transporter 1 (ABCA1), known to be involved in the prostate cancer pathogenesis, were more abundant in the prostate cancer group. In addition, twelve high confidence fusion transcripts could be detected in prostate cancer samples, including the bona-fide prostate cancer fusion transcript TMPRSS2-ERG. Our findings provide proof-of-principle that the extracellular transcriptome of seminal plasma can reveal information of an underlying prostate cancer.

• Charles R. Bronfman Institute for Personalized Medicine (IPM) BioBank Genome Wide Association Study of Cardiovascular, Renal and Metabolic Phenotypes

  The Institute for Personalized Medicine (IPM) Biobank Project is a consented, EMR-linked medical care setting biorepository of the Mount Sinai Medical Center (MSMC) drawing from a population of over 70,000 inpatients and 800,000 outpatient visits annually. MSMC serves diverse local communities of upper Manhattan, including Central Harlem (86% African American), East Harlem (88% Hispanic Latino), and Upper East Side (88% Caucasian/white) with broad health disparities. IPM Biobank populations include 28% African American (AA), 38% Hispanic Latino (HL) predominantly of Caribbean origin, 23% Caucasian/White (CW). IPM Biobank disease burden is reflective of health disparities with broad public health impact: average body mass index of 28.9 and frequencies of hypertension (55%), hypercholesterolemia (32%), diabetes (30%), coronary artery disease (25%), chronic kidney disease (23%), among others. Biobank operations are fully integrated in clinical care processes, including direct recruitment from clinical sites, waiting areas and phlebotomy stations by dedicated Biobank recruiters independent of clinical care providers, prior to or following a clinician standard of care visit. Recruitment currently occurs at a broad spectrum of over 30 clinical care sites. Minorities are strikingly underrepresented in GWAS, including Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and Chronic Kidney Disease; multigenic genetic risk scores for CAD have been recently validated in European ancestry populations, but not in AA or HL populations. Several important opportunities exist for extending additional GWAS to minority populations with a shared risk spectrum of CAD and CKD. For example, progressive CKD is a major and independent risk factor for CVD with an inverse relationship between estimated GFR (eGFR), and risk for mortality and cardiovascular events. This increased risk is only partially explained by the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors among these patients. We conducted a GWAS of CAD and CKD related phenotypes in IPM Biobank with the primary objective to explore the genetics of overlapping CAD and CKD predominantly in minority populations characterized by increased risk.

• High-depth whole genome sequencing of 26 premalignant breast lesions

  Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-obligate precursor lesion of breast cancer, representing 20-25% of newly diagnosed breast cancer lesions. It is currently not possible to predict which DCIS patients will progress to invasive breast cancer. The samples deposited here are part of a larger study using high-depth whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate the somatic mutation genomic landscape of DCIS. Comprehensive evaluation of DCIS genomes aims to uncover biological insights into breast cancer progression and potential opportunities to stratify DCIS patients for personalised treatment options or active surveillance. Due to specific restrictions imposed by the ethical approval at sample collection, the use of the germline data is restricted to filtering of somatic mutation calls only and cannot be used outside this purpose.
